Brussels lockdown orgy: Hungarian EU lawmaker and diplomats among 25 men busted by police during ‘gang bang’
A member of the European Parliament and several diplomats were caught by police at an illegal lockdown “orgy” in a bar in central Brussels, with local media reporting that the lawmaker tried to flee the scene through a window.
Officers reportedly encountered 25 naked men enjoying a drink-and-drugs-fuelled “party of legs in the air” when they raided the venue on Rue des Pierres in the Belgian capital on Friday night. “We interrupted a gang bang!” a source told the Belgian newspaper La Dernière Heure (DH).
MEP József Szájer admitted in a statement on Tuesday that he was at the “private party” and the “misstep” was “strictly personal.” “I ask everyone not to extend it to my homeland, or to my political community,” he added. Szájer has resigned from Hungary’s ruling Fidesz party.
The public prosecutor’s office said that a passer-by had reported to the police that he had seen a man that he was able to identify fleeing along the gutter.
“The man’s hands were bloody. It is possible that he may have been injured while fleeing. Narcotics were found in his backpack,” the public prosecutor’s office said in a statement. “The man was unable to produce any identity documents. He was escorted to his place of residence, where he identified himself as S. J. (1961) by means of a diplomatic passport.”
Gatherings of more than four people are prohibited in Belgium and a curfew is in place in a bid to limit the spread of Covid-19. All those present at the party received fines for breaking the restrictions. The Brussels public prosecutor's office was informed of the incident and decided to release the interested parties without further charge.
Szájer said in his statement that police gave him “an official verbal warning” and brought him home. He said he had not taken drugs and added that he was “sorry” and that he “deeply” regretted breaking coronavirus regulations. “It was irresponsible on my part. I am ready to stand for the fine that occurs,” he said.
Pope Francis Adopts Joe Biden’s Slogan ‘Build Back Better’
ROME — Pope Francis has chosen Joe Biden’s slogan “build back better” to describe his vision for the great reset after the coronavirus pandemic, saying he finds the expression “quite striking.”
“The theme of this year’s celebration is ‘Building Back Better: Toward a Disability-inclusive, Accessible and Sustainable post-COVID-19 World,” the pope wrote in his message this week for the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, while adding, “I find the expression ‘building back better’ quite striking.”
As Gian Guido Vecchi noted in an article Friday in the Italian daily Corriere della Sera, the Vatican chose to translate the Italian title “Riconstruire Meglio” using the exact words that Biden employs.
On his official website, Biden explains the message behind “build back better” by insisting that “this is no time to just build back to the way things were before, with the old economy’s structural weaknesses and inequalities still in place. This is the moment to imagine and build a new American economy for our families and the next generation.”
Biden’s version of the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) “Great Reset” looks remarkably similar to that of Pope Francis.
“We will be able to regenerate society and not return to so-called ‘normality,’ which is an ailing normality, indeed which was ailing before the pandemic: the pandemic highlighted it!,” he said, adding that the old normality “was sick with injustice, inequality and environmental degradation.”
In his recent op-ed for the New York Times, the pope wrote that this “is a moment to dream big, to rethink our priorities — what we value, what we want, what we seek — and to commit to act in our daily life on what we have dreamed of.”
“God asks us to dare to create something new,” he declared. “We cannot return to the false securities of the political and economic systems we had before the crisis. We need economies that give to all access to the fruits of creation, to the basic needs of life: to land, lodging and labor.”
“We need to slow down, take stock and design better ways of living together on this earth,” he proposed.
The WEF at Davos welcomed what it sees as the pontiff’s endorsement of its “Great Reset” program, highlighting the similarities between their visions.
In an article titled “Here’s the pope’s prescription for resetting the global economy in response to COVID-19,” the WEF declared that Francis had “put his stamp on efforts to shape what’s been termed a Great Reset of the global economy in response to the devastation of COVID-19.”
“Pope Francis has issued a scathing indictment of neoliberalism,” the WEF notes, “a philosophy espousing austerity, privatization, deregulation, unbridled markets, and relatively weak labour laws.”
Moreover, the pope “blames the ‘dogma’ of neoliberal economics for making us more vulnerable to COVID-19,” it states, while calling for “greater multilateral cooperation and a focus on human dignity.”
“Neoliberalism’s free-market orthodoxy has been blamed for making health care systems and livelihoods especially vulnerable to the pandemic, and has drawn a clearer line under the need for active government intervention,” the article asserts.

From being a leadership class, they have morphed into quasi-aristocracy; and then a parasitic nobility class; and now, they're turning on those they view as their lessers - the ones who generate the wealth that provides Gulfstreams and luxury Davos hotels, and blonde four-figure hookers, and kobe beef.
It's truly suicidal for them - because to impoverish the masses, and allow a percentage of them to die for lack of food or medicine...reduces what they can extract, and invites those masses to violently turn on them.
There will always be a leadership class; but survival of its members is no more a given than that of anyone else.

I get that elections are rigged - although they weren't rigged when the current crop of Dumbo cRats got in. But even with de-facto lifetime tenure, there's things that can be done.
If the ballot box is made to not work, the ammo box remains. It's tough to take out the top guy; but Shifferbrains is just one more puppet-stooge. Meeting him shouldn't be hard; and he'd go easier than most VC frontline grunts.
But, that's for the people of Califukistan to solve. I won't fight their battles FOR them.
"Wall Street South": Goldman Leads Financial Firm Exodus From NYC To Florida
Liberal politicians have been driving citizens out of their cities and states all year - as we have documented in cities like Chicago and states like California - due to an increasing embrace of higher taxes and more regulation, all while acting as authoritarian lockdown hypocrites (see here and here) and embracing defunding the police.
The latest genius to singlehandedly ruin his city now appears to be Bill de Blasio, who not only has turned New York into a destitute shell of the city it once was, but could also be single-handedly on the verge of ruining the financial capital of the United States. Thanks to his "leadership", massive financial firms like Goldman Sachs and Elliot Management are now taking their operations out of New York and into states like to Florida.
Someone forwarded a news article on how the Biden family were scamming the Ukraine to Ambassador Pyatt. His reaction? Blame the Russian news outlet.
PS how is it possible that Pyatt is still a current United States Ambassador?
Here's Pyatt spreading the lie that the Ukrainian Prosecutor (who at the time was not Shokin anyway) was responsible for thwarting Burisma case in the UK.
@ClimateAudit
has written extensively on this. It was the UK authorities who dropped the ball, nothing to do with Ukraine.
These are the talking points prepared by Biden's Communications Director Kate Bedingfield for Biden to use if anyone were to ask about Hunter's Ukraine dealings.
A bunch of lies.
This is absolutely disgusting. Not only did that godawful ambassador Pyatt somehow manage not to get fired by Trump but he then used the fact that is still an ambassador to thwart Ron Johnson's Ukraine inquiry.

State, federal authorities expected to file antitrust lawsuits against Facebook on Wednesday
More than 40 attorneys general and the U.S. government are preparing to file antitrust lawsuits against Facebook on Wednesday, alleging that the tech giant engaged in unlawful, anticompetitive tactics to buy or kill off its rivals and solidify its dominance in social networking.
State, federal antitrust lawsuits likely to challenge Facebook for buying rivals and weaponizing data
Three people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a law enforcement proceeding, described the lawsuits and their timing while cautioning that the plans could still change. They said Democratic and Republican attorneys general, led by New York’s Letitia James (D), are expected to ask a judge as part of the legal salvos to consider a wide array of potential redress — including forcing Facebook to sell off some of its business to address competition concerns.
State officials are also expected to petition a judge to require Facebook to inform them before proceeding with any significant future transactions, according to the sources.
The states are coordinating their lawsuit with the Federal Trade Commission, which joined the attorneys general in opening a probe into Facebook last year. The agency also plans to file as soon as Wednesday, the sources said, and its case is expected to track at least the broad contours of the states’ claims, which The Washington Post first reported last month.
A spokesman for James declined to comment. The FTC also declined to comment. Facebook did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Facebook will have to pay a record-breaking fine for violating users’ privacy. But the FTC wanted more.
U.S. investigators initiated antitrust probes targeting Facebook last year. Dozens of attorneys general, led by James, promised a broad review, aiming to explore Facebook’s digital dominance and its ever-growing efforts to siphon users’ data. The FTC, meanwhile, took aim at Facebook almost immediately after concluding an investigation into the company over its entanglement with Cambridge Analytica, a political consultancy, that forced the tech giant to pay a $5 billion penalty.
Facebook, for its part, has mounted a massive lobbying offensive to try to rebut the allegations. Publicly, the company and its chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg, have sought to stress that Facebook’s purchases of Instagram and WhatsApp helped them grow into viable services in a larger market where newcomers, such as TikTok, are still able to thrive.
“A strongly competitive landscape existed at the time of both acquisitions and exists today,” spokesman Chris Sgro said in a statement in October. “Regulators thoroughly reviewed each deal and rightly did not see any reason to stop them at the time.”
But state and federal regulators have come to view Facebook’s ascendance much differently, and their imminent antitrust lawsuits are expected to lay out in wide-ranging detail how the company engaged in illegal, anti-competitive tactics to reach a pole position in social networking.
With WhatsApp, for example, antitrust investigators have seized on Facebook’s earlier promise to users that it would preserve the messaging company’s independence and strong privacy protections, according to the three sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity. But Facebook reversed course after it bought the company in 2014 and recently has sought to integrate its users’ data with the social networking site’s other services, sparking global concern given the company’s past privacy mishaps.
In other cases, investigators have focused on Facebook’s trove of information and the extent to which the tech giant has sought to weaponize it to quash potential rival developers, the sources said. State and federal antitrust agencies have explored how Facebook’s power and reach — and its unrivaled ability to occupy users’ time and eyeballs in the absence of alternatives — have allowed the company to maximize its profits as advertisers gravitate toward the platform, according to two of the sources.
So the UN thinks they can invade a sovereign nation with the strongest military and the largest, armed civilian army in the world ? Good luck with that!
Golly Gee
GIM2 has become the "news compilation site" where you get the REAL NEWS even BEFORE THE FAKE NEWS (falsely) DEBUNKS IT.
We're a lucky bunch, having a grasp of the REALITIES well before they come up in any outside conversations...
