How does a retail store make a profit when this much employee labor is required for customers to shop? Literally an employee almost needs to walk around with every customer to unlock products.
Would you want to shop this way? Stand around for minutes waiting for a store employee… https://t.co/7uzesqJD0P

Customer service just isn't what it used to be.
These two customers clearly need help loading their new riding lawn mower onto their pickup truck and they are in a hurry. Are stores so understaffed that they don't have people available to help?
Why won't any of the employees… https://t.co/xVQ65Mkiqi

This is what happens when central banks provide easy money at artificially low rates. Lots of malinvestment that has no useful investment case.

More reinforcements on their way from Tunisia to Lampedusa, Italy.
"The whole of Europe could become Lampedusa", warns the Polish Prime Minister, as the Italian island has seen thousands of migrants arrive this summer.
The warning came as Poland has taken a firm stance against… pic.twitter.com/KnsIelXZi3

Sky News has reported that Ukraine used UK-made Storm Shadow missiles to strike and destroy Russia’s Black Sea Fleet naval headquarters in Sevastopol on Friday.
Russia conceded that one missile scored a direct hit, and videos and images confirm significant damage, but also claimed a further five were shot down by anti-air defenses. However, Ukrainian sources have said multiple missiles struck the HQ, with unverified social media images circulating which suggest at least two or multiple hit the building.

Two weeks ago, the California Legislature passed a new excise tax on the sales price of all firearms, firearm precursor parts, and ammunition. The 11% tax, paid in addition to sales taxes (base statewide sales tax of 7.25%), would take effect on July 1, 2024. As of Thursday, Assembly Bill 28 remains on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk.
The bill was introduced by anti-gunner and Everytown and Giffords supporter, Democrat Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel of District 46, who has mentioned on his website, “We must ban the sale of assault weapons and stand up to the NRA. In the State Assembly, he’ll fight for tough gun control laws to help prevent mass shootings and keep our kids safe.”
Gabriel told CalMatters:
“We’ve passed a lot of good gun safety laws. The data shows that we have a lower gun death rate here in California than we do in other states. But this was one of the big things that was still out there.”
Gabriel has been one of the most outspoken anti-gunner lawmakers in the crime-ridden state in his attempts to ban semi-automatic rifles. He has also partnered with former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords’ anti-gun group Giffords to wage war on AR-15s.

The US is preparing a UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution to authorize Kenya to send its soldiers to Haiti. Washington believes Nairobi can aid Port-au-Prince in restoring order to gang-controlled territory. The Joe Biden administration said the American taxpayers will foot the bill for the deployment, and US soldiers will train the Kenyan force.
For a year, the White House has sought a third country to send its soldiers into Haiti as UN Peacekeepers. After Canada resisted American pressure to lead the force, Nairobi agreed to send its troops to the Caribbean nation.
The AP notes that some Haitians are opposed to the deployment of UN soldiers from Kenya. In 2010, UN forces released sewage, causing a cholera outbreak that killed nearly 10,000 Haitians. Additionally, Kenyan soldiers have been credibly accused of war crimes in Somalia, where Nairobi conducted military operations in the name of counterterrorism.

Microsoft co-founder, philanthropist, and climate alarmist Bill Gates has backtracked on ‘climate doom’ prophecies. The writing is on the wall for the political and financial elites, who have long championed imminent climate doom, realizing that the public sees through the charades.
In 2021, Gates previously warned about apocalyptic consequences if the world does not achieve zero net carbon emissions by the year 2050. He also promoted his new book, “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster” (fear sells).
On Thursday, Gates made a sudden U-turn on his climate doom narrative and now expects “No temperate country is going to become uninhabitable.”

During Zelensky’s visit to the White House on Thursday the only positive news Ukraine received was that it is about to imminently take possession of the US Abrams tanks which were long ago promised. Kiev has all along complained at the slowness of getting further advanced Western weapons systems.
“Next week, the first US Abrams tanks will be delivered in Ukraine,” Biden said before reporters while sitting alongside Zelensky, who was on his second visit to the US since the war began.

Last year, the vast majority of migrants smuggled into the European Union were males, with the proportion of females only 8 percent, the European Border Agency Frontex said in its 2023-2024 risk analysis report.
In what Frontex terms “clandestine entries,” the leading group of nationals were Afghans (33 percent) followed by Syrians (15 percent) and Turks (10 percent).
The Frontex report also warned that illegal entries are likely to further increase next year:
