Dear Friend,
Extreme heatwave has hit the Canadian west coast and the northwest U.S. leading to scores of deaths. In areas, temperature rose to more than 46°C to more than 47°C. Media reports on the heat dome now covering the Pacific Northwest are telling hardship of people in the regions, melting of power cables, buckling of roads, and closure of schools, universities, restaurants, and scarcity of air conditioners and ice in stores. Convention halls and libraries have been turned in cooling centers for residents who have no air conditioners.

It’s the Super Rich , meaning those within a fraction of the 1% of us, who pull the strings of this horrendous puppet system. How cunning they have always been to offer us Serfs the appearance of democracy. You hear it from all the talking heads from both sides of the aisle in government, along with their counterparts in the mainstream or corporate run media. They all trumpet this facade of true representative government… a LIE!

Political Ego – Whether Sidhu or Yogi- Cannot Be Ignored or Pampered!
by Nilofar Suhrawardy
Intra-party power struggle does spell frustration for party members with high ambitions in both the camps, whether it is Yogi in BJP or Sidhu in Congress. But continuance of the same is least likely to spell gains for either and/or their respective parties. Be it UP or Punjab, politicking for the two parties hoping to return to power, at present, needs to be focused on not going overboard in either pampering or bruising political egos of their key members!
