"The removal of illegal miners from the Munduruku Indigenous Territory marked a crucial moment in territorial reconfiguration. However, the physical removal of gold miners does not end the conflict but rather ushers in new dynamics.

A portion of the Indigenous population has moved to the urban center of Jacareacanga, increasing pressure on precarious infrastructure and limited public services.

The breakdown of informal economic networks associated with gold mining, combined with the absence of structural policies to support sustainable production in the villages, has contributed to increased social vulnerability.

At the same time, the weakening of the gold mining economy has created space for criminal factions to operate in urban areas, highlighting the convergence of different illicit markets, such as gold, drugs, and weapons.

The territory is thus now contested not only between the state and gold miners but also by criminal organizations that exploit the institutional vacuum and socioeconomic fragility."

STRANGE NEWS: #Khat litters the #USA

UK INDEPENDENT: Thousands of pounds of the #Drug khat have been smuggled into the U.S. over the past month — but what exactly is it?

Khat, which is pronounced like “cot,” is a flowering evergreen shrub typically grown in parts of #Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.

The shrub’s leaves can be chewed for their #Stimulant-like effect, according to the #DEA....

People using khat often store it in their cheeks, like #ChewingTobacco,

"Top #legal #experts have... contended that the #strikes violate both #domestic & #international #law & that #drug #trafficking does not constitute grounds for the use of #lethal #military #force. #Counterterrorism experts have also underscored that drug #traffickers, while dangerous, should not be considered #terrorists." If the #criteria for these strikes on #boats don't include their having #drugs or #weapons on board, how can the strikes be justified?

#MafiaState

I’m all for lower drug prices, but this will hurt #patients most.

#Trump sets 100% #drug #tariffs on companies that haven’t lowered prices

Makers of patented #pharmaceuticals can escape the import tax by agreeing to join Trump’s “most favored nation” program to reduce US drug prices or by establishing new factories to serve the #US market….

Организатор даркнет-маркетплейса Hydra получил пожизненный срок :blobfoxshocked:

Московский областной суд приговорил организатора даркнет-площадки Hydra, Станислава Моисеева, к пожизненному заключению и штрафу в ₽4 млн.

Его 15 сообщников получили сроки от 8 до 23 лет и общие штрафы в ₽16 млн.

Все обвиняемые признаны виновными в организации преступной группировки и незаконном производстве наркотиков.

Суд также конфисковал их имущество и продолжает арест активов для выплаты штрафов.

Hydra существовала с 2015 года и достигла транзакций до $2 млрд, предлагая наркотики, оружие и поддельные документы.

Расследование, начавшееся в 2016 году с участием правоохранителей из Германии и США, завершилось ликвидацией Hydra в 2022 году, после чего было конфисковано биткоинов на сумму около €23 млн.

On the 1st day of #testimony in #HunterBiden’s federal #gun trial, #jurors heard his audio of his memoir, where he recounted his #drug use in graphic detail. A federal prosecutor told jurors “no one is above the #law,” & defense said the he did not “knowingly” lie when filling out forms to purchase a weapon.

Prosecutors showed the jury the laptop belonging to Hunter that has long been a target of #RightWing activists & politicians, spurred by #Trump & #RudyGiuliani’s #ConspiracyTheories.

Dear Friends of SAUSAGES [said in my best dawg voice] 🦞

Even though I don't pawn or own a visible dog, I speak fluent #canine. And just like me, they do like their sausages. Just had four for breakfast. Real pork. None of that #vogon or #vegan #processing. When the #wolf has your tongue. SAUSAGES!

As I believe in a #balanced diet, took one multivitamin, #sauerkraut, for my gut microbiome and gott 😇 wholemeal #seed bread and #butter to #house the sausage AND a pot of #English decaff #tea to fight my #caffeine #drug habit.

Obviously I am still a #heretical #Moslem, #Jew, Vegan. And as a heretical #Buddhist of all but the Tantrists and a few other cults, I will never make Jain-Hood. Not that I was trying. Wait... I am trying...

The point is #failure is an #option and for some the only lonely #choice. Just don't beat yourself up over it [usual Nazi #exclusions apply, Nazis are fair game as Tom Cruise Ship might say]

The #Drug Burden Index #DBI associated with all kinds of outcomes in #older people.

But all observational associations, unsure if causaliy related. More likely a marker of underlying conditions.

...boost to #OrganizedCrime in the #RussianFederation and its vassal states:

"A recent #Russian news report says the registered [!] #CrimeRate in the country has doubled in the past 10 years. Crime is so much a part of life in today's #Russia that the television channels carry special daily bulletins devoted to gangland #killings, #drug seizures and #robberies, perhaps...."

This is a very interesting podcast episode on how a small analytical #chemistry / #pharmacology company found a #carcinogen (N-nitrosodimethylamine) in a batches of a widely-used and approved #drug Zantac (ranitidine) for hyperacidity and peptic ulcer. The small-molecule drug is unstable on storage. Some commentary also on how FDA missed this and why broader independent chemical analysis is needed. #DrugRegulation
