A nation mesmerized by its own weakness wanly celebrated the long-ago and faraway memory of standing up for itself, while it passively endures the current orgy of tyrannical cancellation and suppression of anyone talking back to the present folks-in-charge. Over just a few years, this tyranny has grown like a toxic slime mold from such an unlikely place, the Internet social app ecology of Facebook, Twitter, and Google, as they took over the public arena — where the battle of ideas is supposed to live — and did the government’s dirty work, complete with adorable emojis. You’re fired!

Who will stand up to Zuck, Jack, and Sundar Pichai? Who elected these megalomaniacs boss of the USA? What will it take to end their reign of terror? Some sort of… revolution? (Shhhh! That must be a dirty word, even considering we just celebrated the high point of the American Revolution: The Declaration of Independence, signed July 4, 1776.)

Don’t look to “Joe Biden,” the nation’s putatively elected leader — about whose election back in November, 2020, you are liable to hear more about as the summer stickily unspools. Zuck, Jack, and Sundar managed to protect “Joe Biden” from the stupendous depredations of his offspring, Hunter Biden, recorded in explosive detail on a laptop the public was not allowed to hear about. Don’t look to the Department of Justice, supposedly “investigating” that horde of memos and emails detailing the Bidens’ influence-peddling to the CCP and others — they’re busy surveilling “white supremacists” on the apps run by Zuck, Jack, and Sundar. And for sure don’t look to the news media, that coalition of sell-outs and quislings, busy decoding the foreign policy moves signified in “Joe Biden’s” ice-cream flavor choices. (Rocky Road means: Oh, let China have that….)

Wondering who is actually running the “Joe Biden” government? Some of us out here are. (Do you think we’re allowed to say that?) For instance, have you tried googling the name Susan Rice lately? Remember her? Maybe not. “Joe Biden” appointed her Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council. From the looks of things across the country, you’d think her plate would be heaped mighty high, what with “insurrection” and other white mischief threatening to take down the republic.  Anyway, I googled “news” for her. Hardly a goshdarn thing came up that wasn’t from months ago, and most of that was sheer puffery about how accomplished she is, and what a fabulous person. Don’t you wonder what her phone log looks like? All those calls to the Obama residence, day after day, hour after hour?

All of which raises the question: is the USA just floating merrily merrily down the stream of events under the beneficent reign of “Joe Biden” (Susan Rice, Barack Obama & Co…)? Or are we, rather, freefalling? I suspect it is the latter. And toward what? It being mid-year, I will venture a few guesses. Enjoy the summer while you can because Corona Virus is coming back in the fall and watch out for people who are vaccinated getting sicker than the un-vaxed. That will be a mind-bender, as if Americans are not already utterly perplexed and bewildered by one political swindle after another. The whining will drown out even the news of more “white supremacy.” But they told us….

An autumn wave of Covid-19 (one “variant” or another) would take out whatever remains of the service economy, the restaurants struggling just now to return to normality (ha!), the hair salons, the gyms, the florists, booksellers, sports, theaters, live music venues, what-have-you. Since we no longer have much of a manufacturing economy, the only thing left would be Wall Street — which was originally designed to raise money for the manufacturing and service sector but now only raises money for itself via the seemingly magical mingling of “leverage” with “liquidity” to conjure profit from black holes where the ghosts of productivity howl.

It’s some trick but, let’s face it, it’s still just a trick. Also in that picture is the weird three-legged race of deflation tied to inflation running both uphill and downhill at the same time like a nightmare out of M.C. Escher by way of Stephanie Kelton. The USA will be toting up a $3-trillion-plus deficit just for the current fiscal year at the same time that debt becomes ever more obviously unpayable. How does debt even mean anything if there is no prospect of paying it back? Especially in the form of financial instruments, namely: bonds. And how does a financial system based on debt behave when all that is the case? I guess we’re going to find out.

My guess would be a price collapse in financial instruments — abstract things represented by money — and then a collapse of money itself. You may be thinking: not a pretty picture. I know. And we thought the last days of the Soviet Union were bad in 1990. Hoo boy, are we in for a rough ride.  One can hardly imagine the social side-effects of all that, but it would seem to imply people having a rather hard time finding something to eat, or getting anything else they need. Remember good ol’ Ross Perot talking about “a giant sucking sound?” Think of that against a background of things on fire. What flavor ice-cream will “Joe Biden” be ordering on Halloween?

      Imagine, it’s all collapsing on Jo Jo Magoo’s watch.

      Was that planned?

      My guess? Yep.

      Maybe a Trump ‘comeback’ is part of the plan, too.

      • kendar667 July 6, 2021 at 6:18 pm #

        Considering the amount of incessant Trump bashing propaganda that is served up daily to the wokester mob via Big Tech and the MSM, can you imagine the insane meltdown that would occur if Trump did in fact make a comeback?

        Come to think of it, maybe you’re right, maybe that was the plan all along: Cheat badly, get caught, reinstate Trump, CW2. Hopefully Trump isn’t in on it…even I’m not that cynical.

        • O.G. Hawkins July 6, 2021 at 6:41 pm #

          Trump told his followers for weeks to be in DC on Jan. 6.
          “It will be wild!” he promised them.
          They showed up to the Lincoln Memorial.
          He riled them up from behind plexi-glass.
          He told them to walk the Mall and meet him at the Capital Bldg.
          They showed up there.
          He did not.
          They were then professionally herded into the Capital Bldg.
          A murder was lamely faked.
          They were arrested.
          They rot in American dungeons sans process.
          He never mentions them.
          He golfs.
          Sad but True.

          Oh noes!

          And he eats babies alive and cages puppies and kittens and burns them alive!

          Newsflash to the heads of cancel culture: Every history major has read Mein Kampf and probably still has a copy in their book stacks!

        I have just figured out that Anthony Fauci is not a “real” doctor.

        He just told MSNBC that “Americans who refuse the jab are making a POLITICAL statement”!

        If a citizen refuses to be part of a “clinical trial” for an untested experimental jab that is a human rights CHOICE, NOT a “political statement”.

        No REAL doctor would ever frame such a “choice” as “political” if he realizes 7000 Americans have already died from the jab and many thousands have been seriously injured. This according to the CDC reporting system.

        Fauci is a liar and a criminal and should be indicted now.

        Maybe then he will have his physicians license taken away and he will finally just shut the ‘ef up:

    • Rulo Deschamps July 5, 2021 at 8:14 pm #

      hmuller, possibilities:

      – CV19 is the worst threat in memory, worldwide. Govt’s should be obeyed blindly “for the good of all”. Media and forums are justified in imposing draconian limits on freedom since people are dropping dead left and right. Corpses rot in the streets as the pandemic rages. Hospitals and societies are a hair away from collapsing so it’s now a matter of trust in technology and science protecting the human race from decimation via vaccines and lockdowns. This contradicts my experience and observations. The combo govt – media is to be taken with a grain of salt in view of the absurd explanations and equivocations they’ve offered in the past, from “remember the Maine” to gulf of Tonkin to Kennedy to 911, Iraq, Epstein, etc. I don’t believe this version of reality.
      – CV19 is a bioweapon, or a naturally occurring phenomenon capable of yearly mutations to reach lethality, and achieve “destroyer of civilizations” status. I don’t know.
      – Countermeasures to CV19, mainly vaccines, are a bioweapon capable of inflicting severe damage on the fabric of civilization including forced depopulation. I don’t know.
      – The healthcare and pharma rackets have figured yet another way to fleece the public. No bioweapons in sight, but billions enrolled in bi annual shots. Flu shots on steroids so to speak, clientele vastly more numerous via fear propaganda. I don’t know.
      – Political and financial shenanigans. A far left revolution under cover of a black swan.Or justification for a far right counter revolution. Or justification for a massive crash and the repudiation of all debts public and private, or for the creation of new currencies and new legislation. I don’t know.

      I admit I don’t know much. Just that the current narrative re CV19, like that of much else, is bullshit. Also that it’s better to not watch TV or follow the news cycle too closely. Or social media. Time is better spent in thought and action towards sustainabilty. Of self, family, tribe and community. A calloused hand from tilling extra rows is a good investment. An hour obtaining useful items for the lifeboat (water tanks, crank radio, seed), beats 10 trying to convince others that we are not going back to normal. I think History is upon us, and it’s now “brace for impact”. We hope our preparations and disciplined attitude will be enough to preserve freedom over our bodies (no mandatory jabs), freedom from hunger, and just plain freedom to follow our path in live without Big Brother bossing us around. But we don’t know.

      • hmuller July 5, 2021 at 10:02 pm #

        I agree Rulo. I have such a backlog of books to read and DVD’s to watch. At 66 I wonder if I’ll get thru them before I die.

        I feel guilty for wasting so much time here, arguing with the irredeemable. Maybe we should trust the universe; when the time comes, we’ll all be where we need to be and do what we need to do.

        When you get old enough, being true to values and principles matters more than a few more years of life purchased by living on one’s knees.

        • MaryQueen July 6, 2021 at 7:14 pm #

          Mary,
          You missed a lot of “reality shows”, talent contests, quiz shows, and the Kardashians. You’ll never be able to catch up. LOL

          I don’t watch much either. But sometimes I’ll walk into the room and my father is watching some police/intell community program. Half the time the villain is a conspiracy theorist, truther, or some right wing terrorist. The mind programmers are not ashamed to smear it on thick.

        • Wizard of the Saddle July 7, 2021 at 8:14 am #

          Me too. Watching FOX was my last vice. Now I rarely even do that. Television delivers mostly propaganda and rage porn. I feel much better devoting my hours to prepping and hobbies. Life is far too short to waste it consuming swill from the airwaves. A small, selective consumption of tidbits of news from non-establishment news sources I trust now suffices for keeping up with what “the world” is up to weekly.

    If you want to see what will happen to the service sector, just watch the cruise industry. Three attempts to sail with just crew and 1/3 full. Covid hit all three with only onesy, twosey people getting it. What will the reaction be from the CDC? I do not know the status of vaxx on these ships? We know that folks can get the crud even after vaxx. They were all tested positive, so there is another variable. Most were asymptomatic.

    So watch the progress of this epitome of the service sector. It is national but also international. Remember norovirus hitting the cruise ships prior to Covid? Hundreds of folks got sick. Anybody die? We do not know. How does Covid stack up against norovirus? We do not know. We do know that hundreds are not getting Covid.

    • beantownbill. July 5, 2021 at 11:07 am #

      “We know that folks can get the crud even after vaxx. They were all tested positive, so there is another variable. Most were asymptomatic.“

      John, if you think about it, what does having Covid really mean? Just having it in your body doesn’t necessarily mean you have a disease. Otherwise, you could say we are very disease-ridden, infected with numerous kinds of intestinal bacteria and other organisms. But we don’t say that. As long as you’re not sick you’re probably ok. Remember disease is dis-ease.

      Covid most likely gets into many persons’ bodies but you don’t get sick. At some point, the vaccine deals with the virus. If you have Covid in your body and you get tested before the vaccine acts, you will have asymptomatic Covid -19, and vaccine naysayers will declare you still can ‘get’ covid after being vaxxed.

      • Yohannon July 5, 2021 at 11:15 am #

        We’ve been trying for a year with no success. He’s into the Fear Porn. Won’t hear a word about the test being a complete fraud.

        But well said anyway. “Antibodies” are signs of combat – like bodies scattered on the ramparts. What if the enemy never gets that far? No bodies/antibodies.

        I never get sick. And I’m not going to allow my defenses to be breached by an injection full of God knows what.

        what ‘act’ is the vaccine going to perform?

        The vaccine naysayers only agree with the vaccine industry when they say you can still get covid after the vaxx.

        Try to keep up.

        • benr July 6, 2021 at 7:43 pm #

          Connect the dots….if you can still get the virus, still get sick and pass it on to others even after taking the risk of an assorted host of side effects that could be worse than just getting the virus and getting over it then why get it?
          I personally avoid the modern medical system as much as a I can.

      • JohnAZ July 5, 2021 at 11:18 am #

        Bill

        Kids are largely asymptomatic. Why?

        Just guessing two possibilities.

        Their immune systems are in hyperdrive due to the presence of the thymus gland, Could be the virus just never stands a chance against the kids systems.

        Or

        The virus has been coming on for a period of time unrecognized, various forms of coronavirus. Maybe kids have a group immunity to the crud that older folks do not have?

        ???

        • abbybwood July 7, 2021 at 4:30 pm #

          In the meantime one of my relatives who works in a ped ICU in Los Angeles is watching kids die.

          As a result I can’t see my little healthy grandkids because I have elected to NOT participate in the clinical trial. Unless I wear a mask. No.

          I cannot get any straight answers about whether these dying kids have co-morbidities like immuno-suppression from chemo, or diabetes or obesity etc.

      • tahoe1780 July 5, 2021 at 11:19 am #

        “the vaccine deals with the virus” To be clear, the vaccine DOES NOT deal with the virus, your immune system does. The purpose of a vaccine is to show your immune system what to look out for. A vaccine is worthless if you have a compromised, weak, or under nourished immune system. Vitamin D, zinc, selenium, etc. my friend. https://covid19criticalcare.com/

        • beantownbill. July 5, 2021 at 12:16 pm #

          Yes, you are correct, I should have been more specific. I take all of the supplements you listed, although I could up my dosages a little more. Even supplements, if the purity is not good, or if too high a dosage, have the potential to cause negative side effects. Everyone’s body is different wrt tolerances. So monitor yourself.

        • oroyrodajes July 5, 2021 at 2:35 pm #

          @t tahoe1780

          Yes, those supplements are likely to be helpful.

          It’s hard to find doctors who will prescribe Ivermectin and HCQ, but I got some. And I got the vax. FWIW, my Dr. said that the vaxx should stop illness or make it milder.

          We can only do what we can do. A lot of this is out of our hands anyway.

      • abbybwood July 5, 2021 at 1:20 pm #

        We watched a fascinating new interview last night with Dr. Paul Marik while trying to ignore the booms and other loud nonsense outside the window. He said many times that Covid is a very, very complicated disease. Much too complicated for the CDC advise to stay home with it and if you turn blue then go to the ER.

        Of course by then it is too late for “early intervention” with Ivermectin, D3, C, Zinc, aspirin etc.

        The interview is an hour and a half but well worth it. Marik is with FLCCC along with Kory and others:

        • King of Comedy July 5, 2021 at 4:13 pm #

          The notion of “asymptomatic cases” has set off my bullshit-detector from the earliest days of the pandemic.

          The immune system of every organism has evolved specifically to protect against the endless stream of microbes, pathogens and parasites that that organism is subject to throughout the course of its lifespan. If a pathogen has not overwhelmed the immune system, the immune system is neutralizing the pathogen and the organism doesn’t “have” the disease.

          The absence of symptoms not only means that the immune system is up to the task but in effect that the virus has not even been able to gain a foothold. As you imply, the ridiculous “asymptomatic case” notion means that a good chunk of the population of the planet is walking with one asymptomatic disease or another.

          Another feature of the immune system widely accepted as a scientific truth prior to the new “science” of Covid is that exposure to a pathogen would create immunity in the organism whose immune system had been exposed to the pathogen.
          No longer the case as those previously infected with Covid must do their civic duty and accept the mRNA sacrament delivered from on high.

          A 2008 study of survivors of the 1918 pandemic provided a pretty definitive counterpoint to the vaccine-for-all-who-can-walk-or-crawl cult. Almost a century later, the survivors, all of them over 90, exhibited an immune response when exposed to a protein from the 1918 virus.

          The final paragraph is classic:

          “Anthony Fauci, MD, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said recent studies have projected that immunity lasts several decades; the current study provides proof, the AP reported. “This is the mother of all immunological memory here,” he told the AP.”

          In a functioning society, somebody would probably want to know, with all that on the table, why the hell recovered Covid patients still need to get vaccinated according to the same guy who spoke those words.

        BREITBART,

        The National Education Association (NEA) has moved to openly promote the teaching of Critical Race Theory (CRT) in K-12 schools and to oppose any bans on instruction in both the Marxist ideology and the widely discredited New York Times’ “1619 Project.”

        During its virtual representative assembly, held June 30-July 3, the nation’s largest teachers’ union agreed to “research the organizations attacking educators,” doing what it referred to as

        “anti-racist work,” [Bow yr head for Fred and George, Marlin]

        as well as to “use the research already done and put together a list of resources and recommendations for state affiliates, locals, and individual educators to utilize when they are attacked.”

          It’s time for the American people to develop a new school system that teaches the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

          This alone would leave that thoroughly corrupted teachers union in the dust.

          Teach the children (NO masks!) the 3 R’s and throw in lots of singing and dancing and art and theater then around 8th grade just give them lots and lots of books to read.

          That oughtta do her.

            And recess! With swings and monkey bars and slides and the rest of the stuff that kids actually enjoyed playing on. When you drive past new elementary schools now, there’s no playground.

            Lots of books to read around 8th grade is a great idea but the chilling fact is many can’t read and comprehend those books very well. Placing so much pressure on schools to be social-intervention agencies as well as schools has gone a long way to ruining it.

            I agree 100% on the 3 R’s, music and art and books, books and more books. I learned more on my own reading than I ever did in a classroom from a teacher. Though I did have a few exceptional educators over the years.

      “Oh ya! Sure. Now you’ve got the ‘crud’ even though you feel fine (well, except that your presence now seizes small, electromagnet engines), you must ‘shelter in place’ like a mouse until we tell you to come out. Oh … and Netflix is talking price increase again.”

      They were all tested positive, so there is another variable. Most were asymptomatic.

        Genetics plays a role, OG.

        Personally, I am an example.

        To get into nursing, I had to get a Hepatitis B immunization, three shots over six months.

        Did it, no antibody titer. Did it again, no antibody titer. I am in a very small group, like 5% of mostly males that do not react to the vaccine.

        Covid is probably just the same with its escapes.

    Remember that there are 2 parts to deficit finance, the mismatch between government spending and income. to the treasury. $3 trillion is a huge amount of money, but it’s just piled on top of all the trillions of debt taken on mostly under the watches of Obama, George W., and Trump. I suspect that the current regime is deliberately piling and will use it as the excuse for massively higher taxes on everyone. They’re already pushing such increases on “the rich” in the form of much higher capital gains taxes, and inheritance taxes with the elimination of the step up in basis provision in the tax code. Once they get that in place they’ll move on to tax the heck out of everyone else via a value-added tax. After all, U.S. household wealth is somewhere around $100 trillion, which people like Sanders and Warren are drooling over. No need to mess around with income tax forms and all the deductions, etc. Half of the country doesn’t pay anything to run the federal government anyway. We’ll just pay a lot more for everything we buy just like they do in Europe. Lots of social services will be “free” because very few people will have much money. Then we’ll all head from our cramped government subsidized apartments to a cafe and bitch about the government just like the Europeans.

      Remember too that the Feds are just one level of taxation. As the Federal reservoir dries up, it’s supporting of state budgets will decline. This is already happening as states support for their pension plans evaporates.

      JHK states that we do not really fully understand what is financially going to happen.

      If no one calls in the 30 trillion, nothing will happen.

      That means no foreign country wanting their money. Most importantly it means that US, and global, retirees will try to get their money and it will just not be there. Economic collapse will be centered on the collapse of the purchasing power of the elders. Oh yeah, do not forget that a big part of social security, and private long and short term disability insurance will clobber disability folks.

            Data on who owns United States sovereign debt is readily available. Here’s an excellent chart.

            https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.thebalance.com/amp/who-owns-the-u-s-national-debt-3306124

            If people own Treasury bonds and then they die, the binds are bequeathed to their heirs or to their estates, as would be the case with any financial asset.

            I have no idea what Jim means when he says that U.S. debt is “unplayable.” In reality, the cost of our debt service has been declining for years. Annually, the cost of servicing our debt is less than 2 percent of GDP, which is a very manageable figure.

            Do you think we have interest rates set by a free market?

            Since 2008 rates have been kept low to extend the life of the present fiat monetary system.

            If money printing by the FED spikes inflation higher (logic and math say this is likely) , they will face a dilemma. Keep interest rates low and see the dollar lose most of its worth. Or raise interest rates and send the whole country (and world) into cascading bankruptcies. HIgher rates would be the pin in the equities bubble.

            You sound ,like someone who believes in a perpetual Ponzi scheme with Modern Monetary Theory which is Utter Rubbish!

          • Enough Already July 5, 2021 at 12:34 pm #

            Interest rates are controlled by the Fed at the short maturity end of the yield curve, but the long end is basically dictated by the market.

            The fed had been buying a lot of sovereign debt securities lately, but I imagine we will see it start to unwind those positions as the economy requires less support.

            Im not saying that debt is not a problem at some point, but it certainly doesn’t appear to be an issue now or in the near future.

            Generally speaking, when an entity, including the United States government, can borrow money for 1.5 percent for ten years, it should do so. There are plenty of things it could invest in that yield a higher rate of return than 1.5 percent. What happens the. Is GDP grows and the cost of debt service declines as a percentage of GDP.

        Can you help me understand what this means? If you hold a treasury, you are entitled to be paid the coupon plus the entire principal when the bond reaches the maturity date. Bonds reach the maturity date every single day, and the government pays the principal. It has never missed a payment or defaulted. But nobody can “call in” the entire outstanding debt before the individual notes reach maturity. That’s just not how it works.

        • michael July 5, 2021 at 4:09 pm #

          This has not happened to the US yet. But given the belligerent habits of this country nasty surprises cannot be ruled out.

          As an aside: I cannot speak to the FED, but over here the EZB controls all maturities on the curve not only the short end.

            Years ago the FED focused on the short end of the maturities. They have since quietly expanded the manipulation to all bonds, but the financial pundits didn’t get the memo. Those who listen to the establishment pundits also don’t know this, and much more.

      How much of that $100 trillion is stocks, bonds and real estate? You can’t really say its valued at $100 trillion if you try to take it too fast. The value is determined at the edges.
      Capital Gains amount for about 1/4 of the tax receipts. So if the market crashed, it would wipe out even more tax receipts.

At the same time Americans are losing jobs, homes, savings. Nothing is real with the money supply and no one is going to save us.

      Undoubtedly, increased taxation is in our future. But it won’t be enough, not nearly enough. Our host is correct that at some point the bond vigilantes will return and refuse to buy while the Federal Reserve loses control of the interest rates. We called it stagflation in the 1970’s, which is deflation and inflation at the same time; perhaps on steroids this time. The dollar would not fare well in this scenario and the social consequences for a depraved population are unhappy to think about. Think Germany in the 1920’s and the aftermath.

  6. JohnAZ July 5, 2021 at 10:35 am #

    One more.

    If I remember right, the 1920’s ended up with the country so leveraged with folks getting into the stock market that when it went in 1929, it destroyed a lot of America. Why did that happen? Could it be that the tech changes of the 20’s destroyed so many jobs and so many industries that the market became the main refuge for people’s capital, what was left. Demand in the market would have driven prices up. However, when folks started borrowing to buy more shares, the capital basis for the market disappeared and the short sellers of the day had a heyday as the market collapsed.

    We are at a very similar point in time right now. The creeps in charge of this country no longer live in DC. IT has just about destroyed what is left of the US manufacturing sector and will soon start eating away at the Far East. Important as if China, who is vastly over leveraged, will start wanting some of its bonds cashed in. Uh,oh US. The service sector cannot run on its own and when the blame game starts, the Obama and Biden economists are going to get the blame.

    Cyber attacks may start shutting down the US as professional hackers take the US industry apart.

      Great on the way up.

      But if you don’t get off the escalator while it’s still moving up…

      It’s even worse on the way down.

      Despite the great rate of technological innovation of the 1920s, which continued into the 1930s by the way, technology was not enough to compensate for an overleveraged financial environment caused by speculation.

      For many American’s the depression was…depressing and difficult.

      Uber. Zillow. Even Tesla. They don’t make money, yet their stocks are highly valued. We’ve seen this movie before.

      Big differences between 1928 and 2019: The US of A still had an abundance of raw materials and food (that’s from the RED pill view of the matrix), and that will trump everything else, and, from the BLUE pill, speculation and buying stocks on margin were bad–but the US government’s debt: manageable. The dollar: still based on GOLD, pretty sold. America’s was a creditor nation with a trade surplus. America’s public educational system and colleges/universities were the best.

    Biden’s inauguration was odd, to say the least. Many of the National Guard turned their backs on him when he was driven to the White House on inauguration day. When he arrived, he found the front door locked against him. As Trump had not conceded (still has not), there was no one there to greet him. I’m not entirely convinced he ever got in. The White House still sits dark and apparently unoccupied. Where, exactly, is he camping out? Where is his seat of government? Biden, purported Commander in Chief, was refused entrance to the Pentagon. Such optics show the Biden administration to be exceedingly weak, and some of the governors are starting to assert States Rights, mostly unchallenged. Things are becoming increasingly surreal. Is our government at war with itself? Is the military split into factions? Soon, the Arizona audit numbers will have to come out. If, as I am convinced, massive fraud is revealed, any confidence in the election will be lost. As many as 30% of Democrats believe the election was probably stolen. This will be a crisis of biblical proportions.

      As I watched the fireworks last night. i was reminded that Firework packages are ordered months in advance. Yet 2 days after Biden won the election? He had a rally where the fireworks spelled out Biden 2020 in the sky. A fireworks package that specialized had to ordered months in advance. It could not have been put together in 2 days.

      Did Biden already know the Fix was in before we even voted?

      • hmuller July 5, 2021 at 12:06 pm #

        I don’t know about that. Hillary probably had new carpeting already ordered for the oval office in 2016, but had to cancel.

        Have you ever noticed that when a team wins the super bowl or the World Series, they already have the shirts and hats ready to hand to the players when they give out the trophy? Does that mean that they rigged the game? Or is it possible that both sets of tee shirts were printed and ready to go? Is it also not possible that both Trump and Biden planned victory parties so that they could be ready ahead of time if that was how events unfolded? On top of that, it is entirely possible that an elected president could get special expedited service on fireworks orders. Is it not? It’s not exactly like you or me trying to order them, is it?

        • tully July 5, 2021 at 5:07 pm #

          As I recall, Hillary had quite the party planned, including fireworks at the ready in 2016. Obviously the fireworks got cancelled, and a few champagne bottles got thrown.
          Guessing most of the booze was consumed as folks attempted to drown their sorrows.

        The way he campaigned by hiding in a closet while wearing a mask certainly leads one to believe the Dems had arranged for the “preferred” (for Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and the major media) candidate to win. When a candidate has “massive” rallies where ten people show up while the “unpopular” candidate has to turn away people because he already has too many supporters at the rally, but the guy with ten supporters wins, something is screwy.

        • hmuller July 5, 2021 at 3:10 pm #

          Yes, Biden did remind me of the masked Lone Ranger, discreetly hiding from the world. Yet aided by his faithful person of color in women’s garb, KamelToe, miraculously winning in the end.

      • michael July 5, 2021 at 4:23 pm #

        These things are arranged in advance to cover all bases. Two types of speeches are prepared: victory and concession.
        This reminds me of a funny story: at the occasion of the Beijing Olympics (2008) the swimmer Michael Phelps was a hot favorite to win 7 gold medals (3 individual + 4 relays). Now no longer remembered is the fact that there was female counterpart: Katie Hoff with the same chances of making seven golds.

        Thus major network was already filming the triumphant athlete profiles in Beijing even as the competition was going. The piece had to be done in advance to be ready for the viewers immediately after the fact.

        Michael Phelps came through but Katie Hoff didn’t and “lost” in all individual events (“lost” like 2nd). The editors had to stay up all night to edit her out and she disappeared into obscurity — a real shame as she was a glorious swimmer.

      And we do not have a clue about what will happen. The Founders did not envision corruption like what has happened and did not include it in the Constitution.

    • hmuller July 5, 2021 at 12:04 pm #

      This reminds me of a situation I read about. In the early middle ages a diocese was divided against itself and could not agree on a bishop. So the archbishop said: You people in faction A give me the name of someone in Faction B you least detest. Same thing with you Faction B.

      Then he wrote the two names down on paper, put them in a hat and had some young child pick one. That person became the new bishop.

      It’s like the Republicans pick Senator Joe Manchin (D. W Va.) the Democrats pick Senator Mitt Romney (R. UT). Someone picks one name from the hat; and that’s out next President. Think it would pass constitutional muster?

      I think the only thing that could possibly save America at this point is the assertion of states’ rights. You’re right that it’s beginning to happen. Also there is simply nullification – just don’t enforce those laws that are detrimental to the states. I’m saddened that Georgia can’t be counted on to be one of those states. I’ve said it before but Atlanta metro is a cancer devouring our state. What does one do when one has a cancer-just cut it out. Sounds like the beginning of a plan to me.

        As said, I’m not entirely convinced. I suspect a lot of what we see of Joe Biden is filmed on a soundstage. I’m entirely convinced there’s more than one of him, or he has prosthetic earlobes that can be replaced on a whim. I’ve seen the videos of what DC looks like now and there are no lights on in that building. All the federal buildings are locked and appear empty. There’s no traffic to speak of and there’s plenty of parking Perhaps, because of COVID, he is working from home like the rest of the federal employees?

        • Enough Already July 5, 2021 at 2:04 pm #

          “ I’m entirely convinced there’s more than one of him, or he has prosthetic earlobes that can be replaced on a whim.”

          If you’re entirely convinced that he has prosthetic earlobes (?!?!) and that there’s more than one of him, I don’t know how to debate with you. I’m absolutely convinced that that is not the case. The lights are definitely NOT off at the White House. That’s a fact.

          The reason there’s not much traffic in Washington and that a lot of federal offices remain at very low capacity is because most federal employees and a whole of of private sector employees are still working from home. There’s no grand conspiracy. The reason is very straightforward.

          • Yohannon July 5, 2021 at 2:22 pm #

            There’s a whole bunch of Bidens who have no earlobes. The prosthetis can just be “snapped in” as needed.

          • draupnir July 5, 2021 at 3:12 pm #

            There are at least two Joe Bidens. One of them has earlobes that droop a bit before attaching to his jaw below his ear. The other one has hardly any earlobe at all. Of course they don’t change his earlobes. They are not the same man. The formation of the ears never changes, is unique, and is one of the methods used to identify people.

        • KappaJoe July 5, 2021 at 3:05 pm #

          He also has yet to fly anywhere under the the call sign “AF1”, i.e., Air Force One, which is the call sign provided by the Air Force to be used exclusively by the sitting US president when flying. As far as I know, this is unheard of. Yet Harris has been seen flying as AF2 on and off. No one knows why this is the case, but speculation is rampant.

        I don’t know why you would automatically assume that he is. There are many possible reasons why moving him into the White House could be a bad idea. For one thing, the media has workspace in the White House. It is possible that Biden’s private existence is not amenable to public awareness.

        While it is true that the press cannot freely enter the part of the White House that is the president’s private residence, people with dementia have a tendency to wander. Sure, Biden could theoretically be restrained from wandering, but if any appearance of this would be unseemly. Secret service herding the pajama-clad (or nude) old guy back home when he was trying to sneak out for ice cream–while babbling incoherently–would not be a good look.

        It is also possible that he requires medical care at home that could attract the attention of the press–or that he requires medical care in medical facilities with an unseemly frequency.

        People with dementia can be troublesome in many–often unforeseen–ways.

      Good comment, Draupnir. Biden didn’t have to campaign, told us he didn’t need our votes to win and so it’s only fitting that he doesn’t actually have to do the job he was supposedly elected for. No, it’s all very bizarre.

      draupnir, surreal indeed.

      And you know what else is of biblical proportions? The migration towards FL. Never in over 2 decades here have I seen anything like it. Had to move my southern farm to the north of the state. Dozens of 300 mile trips loaded with live chickens, tools and supplies. The USA is moving to Fl, especially South Fl. I-75 southbound is sometimes 50% or more out of state vehicles. In the summer! Epochal crises bring about migrations. Exodus. Vast population displacements. We’re seeing it.

      I don’t recommend it. As we say here when it’s too late to evacuate because the hurricane is upon you already, “shelter in place”. South FL is overpopulated already. You’ll be dead weight, without contacts, without knowing the lay of the land. Stay in NJ.

      Or Comey, or Schiff, or Brennan, or Podesta. How is it that these major foot soldiers and Trump antagonists have little to no visibility in the administration of the most popular president ever elected? Even the Clintons have been uncharacteristically quiet and reclusive, yet the Bidens managed to go out of their way to take pictures of themselves with the hobbit Carters.

      It is odd. Even though the Covid hysteria is the quietest in fifteen months, and most areas have been open for quite some time now, it seems many of Washington’s power players are more “sheltered” and than ever.

I find it interesting, because every one of those people, reputedly lying low, is rumored to have been arrested and tried by military tribunal.

      If it does, it means that we have no control over the mutation properties of the coronavirus family. Not much else will matter.

      Reading CFN, there is definitely a split in understanding what the capability of the coronavirus is. The political reaction to another surge could be catastrophic. We better hope the vaxx holds against variants..

      • Hereward the Woke July 5, 2021 at 5:19 pm #

        Really? The “death rate” from the Delta variant is 0.1%. Which means it’s either the flu or just the watered down mutation of China flu. Most virus mutations are weaker. And China flu was never that bad in the first place. And as for the “vaccine”, it hardly even works against the original virus, and the increasingly disturbing side effects that come with are going to be much worse than any Wuflu “variant”. If you are still worried, I suggest you write to Joe for some Depends reserves to tide you over.

    • michael July 5, 2021 at 11:05 am #

      Generally we do not “know” anything for sure but deal in probabilities. But seeing as how there are tens thousands of new cases in countries with vaccination campaigns far advanced (UK) as well as much indication of the current crop of vaccines ineffective against prevailing variants (one week in June of 514 hospitalized cases in the UK, 210 were partially or fully vaccinated) the likelihood of it coming back in the Fall is pretty good.

      • Islander July 5, 2021 at 12:02 pm #

        Does it matter which virus pops up in the flu season (fall)?

        If my understanding is correct—that the current crop of jabs target only the current corona virus version and actually weakens the immune system’s ability to fight *other* viruses—then it doesn’t seem to matter what turns up in the next flu season.

        The jabbed will have fewer available defenses than the unjabbed.

        Not to forget that the first line of defense against all air-borne germs is the mucous membranes and the T-cells. Teh innate immune system.

        Not antibodies. So for me a big question is whether the current mRNA jabs compromise the innate immune system.

        A big problem that I see looming is that records are not being kept carefully, so we won’t have enough data to really understand what is going on as this health/sickness situ develops.

        • Islander July 5, 2021 at 12:23 pm #

          What I was referring to in my second graf is

          paradoxical immune enhancement (per Dr. Mercola article linked above).

        • michael July 5, 2021 at 1:44 pm #

          One of the most important innate defenses against viruses is intracellular (“cellular”) defense: sentinel cells like macrophages, dendritic cells may not recognize an incoming novel virus. The virus then infects cells and uncovers viral DNA or RNA.

          Cells have receptors to recognize foreign DNA and RNA (Toll like receptors TLR7 and TLR8). When they do so, they raise a sytem-wide alarm immediately and generate interfereon alpha to inhibit viral replication.

          This is an extremely important part of the innate antiviral defense. It so happens that the Pfizer vaccine (and likely all mRNA vaccines) down-regulate this reaction thereby weakening the defense against _all_ viruses.

          A merry good Christmans and a happy H5N1 everybody!

          And OG, I don’t think Jim sees things my way. My view is that the Drosten Test is Corona.

          There is nothing else. Fake cases created by a test ill suited for purpose and cranked up to 45 cycles.

          It is a fucking hoax.

            I concur mightily, except that the injections are potentially a kind of delayed fuse, voluntary euthanasia for the immuno-compromised and an infertility vector of unknown duration for everyone else.

          • Night Owl July 5, 2021 at 3:42 pm #

            Yes, I think that is that is the last piece of the puzzle. What is going to happen when flu season picks up again, and the injected have to deal with the flu in the wild?

            In the animal tests, the animals all died, which is part of why the Pharma mafia could not get full authorization for these shots.

            This is literally a mass experiment, if you want to put it positively. The kicker is, they conceivably know how the test ends, as they have already been there.

          • draupnir July 5, 2021 at 4:15 pm #

            That test was so sensitive, that I’ve read posts from at least two people who claimed to have made appointments for a test, were unable to attend, and were notified that their tests were positive without having even been near a swab.

          • Night Owl July 5, 2021 at 4:59 pm #

            Draup, there is a good session at the Corona Ausschuss where they discuss how the tests came about.

            After the fake videos of people dying while running down the street in China, the WHO had an emergency session where they were told to declare a pandemic. Problem was, they had no cases.

            They contacted Drosten and he developed his special PCR test. And suddenly they had a few thousand cases and a pandemic was declared (they also changed the definition of a pandemic).

            It has been verified that in most countries the tests were being run at 45 cycles, when anything above 25 was known to produce mostly false positive (accoriding to Ur-inventor Mullins).

            Every case stems from the fraudulent test. This is the greatest hoax in human history.

      When is everyone going to realize that the “variants” are not naturally occurring but are new releases timed according to plans or changing events. It’s very curious that India and China get involved in another of their long history of Border conflicts, and within a month Indians are dropping like flies beneath a crop duster.

      Look for an extremely virulent “Variant” to hit Taiwan as China looks to weaken the island prior to an invasion.

      Since, for all practical purposes, covid is just another iteration of the flu, and you can count of a recurrence of the flu during the fall and winter–yes, you can be pretty sure it will be back.

      I am not sure that G-pop will put up with any more lockdown horseshit–at least in some states. Liberal cities and some liberal states might go full-on with Australia-type restrictions, but in many states, I would expect more resistance if a repeat performance were attempted. Conservative states will be much more prepared to counter such measures, and they will have facts and figures to back them up. We all got taken by surprise the first time around.

    The Soviet Union’s last days were bad. It took years for Russia, the core of the USSR, to regain its footing. And yet… it did. And today, they are on “solid” ground. Not as affluent as the the West, let alone Americans, but not bad at all. They have clean water and electricity, and a functioning society.

    Russia was not as developed as America (back in 1990! Let alone NOW!!!) and the Russian people were not as “sophisticated”, at least in the area of consumerism (the arts, ballet, classical music, spirituality, they may be ahead).

    So the shock of their implosion was akin to being pushed off the 2nd floor. It’s bad. When on falls from the 2nd story, it be fatal–or it may just be some bruises, and one gets up in pain and walks away. Usually, one is injured, often seriously.

    The shock of America’s implosion may be like falling off the 4th floor. Much worse. If it is the 4th floor, (and after all, are we not at the “peak” on many levels?), it will be much worse of a fall than the second. Usually falling from there is fatal or paralyzing.

    Russians had intergenerational living arrangements. Those who had families had a real (not virtual…) social support network. Russians had a lot less stuff. What they had wasn’t as good. They didn’t have suburban sprawl. They walked or used shoddy, but serviceable, public transportation. They didn’t sink foundations for millions of exurban homes in their farmland. The were definitely not living beyond their means.

    And even though subjugated, the Russian people retained similar values and culture.

    Once the Russian state dispensed with Communism, while not China, just using simple, common sense principles, the Russian were able to make up a lot of ground–after a few awful years. But, this is important, they survived the awful years without civil strife or civil war. They were able to feed themselves, and life went on, pretty much as before, in their cramped, mass-produced apartments for the urban Russian, and their small homes for the rest.

    The US has been living beyond its means (budget deficit and…TRADE deficit!) my entire adult life.

    American capitalism is to a large extent about hustling and conning–“making money with money”.

    “Leverage” is a wonderful way to get more, faster! Yes, it is.

    Of course, deleverage means, that in reverse, it will be an awful way to go backwards. If/when society starts to implode, it will unravel.

    The ‘safety net’ in America is based on money–I pay taxes now and collect Social Security later. Families tend to be scattered–kids to go college and land that first job 700 miles away. Grandparents and kids don’t live under the same roof. It is liberating, for sure! But it also requires a level of affluence and financial stability that, if one reads our host or other intelligent, and frequently very rich, individuals, America has been lacking for some time.

    The ‘common values’ that Americans had are being questioned and discarded just as the storm clouds are rolling in.

    So, if things do not hold, the average American will feel a lot more pain than the average Russian–both, because we will take a bigger step backwards, and because on average, we are not as tough or tolerant of “pain” as Russians–and quite honestly, many other people in the world.

          In aviation there is something called ‘coffin corner’ where the higher you go the narrower the margin gets between the Mach limit of the aircraft and the stall speed. When you’re at the corner, going any faster causes a supersonic shock wave to develop with undesirable consequences, and going any slower causes a high altitude stall with undesirable consequences.

          This is how I’ve always thought of what you are describing and about many things in life in general. You can increase life expectancy but it comes at the cost of resilience and fragility and it is also subject to the law of diminishing returns.

          Conversely, while the mean life expectancy may well be lower in Russia, they were in much better shape to pull through the collapse of the Soviet Union than the USA would/will be.

      On his blog while ago, Orlov did compare the two, CCCP and USA in the time of societal collapse.
      In the former, during the turmoil, people’s utilities were not turned off, public transport was free and nobody was kicked out from the “dreadful” Soviet apartments. Dacha’s land on the outskirts of the cities did provide some food.
      Later did not fare well for an obvious reason just by reading the list above.

      A big problem I see is that Americans do not generally care about one another.

      This can easily be witnessed by all the cowardly physicians in the US who are too afraid to do simple research with the FLCCC docs on Covid. “First, do no harm” is a thing of the past.

      The bulk of these doctors currently “caring” for Americans are far more concerned with their wallets and being professionally cancelled. Dr. Marik pointed this out in his talk last night (link above).

    The average citizen is too stupid to escape the cage of propaganda which the symbiotic structure consisting of the ruling oligarchie + multinational corporations and their mass media arms put them in.

    The situation can get much much worse without there being a reaction by the public. The official lies can assume bizarre forms. A bit like Nazi Germany winning the war by luring the Russians into the suburbs of Berlin to be annihilated there.

    With the structure for election fraud now firmly in place it will be impossible to change anything. The only way out is a complete breakdown of existing structures (as in Germany 1945) or a coup by the military.

    Good article and your guess what’s going to happen is certainly as good as anyones, probably better since you’re watching it more closely than most people.

    Where are the idealist, young lawyers fighting for free speech? I don’t know how anyone could look at this censorship and not realize Americans are being stripped of free speech under the guise of “fake news”? Has this been challenged in any court? The appalling Congressional hearings showed our government was urging them on. Pretty bad when even that AI robot Zuckerberg weakly objected to being put in the position of censor.

    There was a segment on the national news about the housing boom and a young woman who bought a house with no inspection and then discovered it was falling apart. Guess whose fault it was?! The government! “It should be against the law to buy a house without an inspection.”

    Maybe that’s why no one is objecting — we want the government to do our thinking for us, give us our opinions and bail us out of our stupid decisions.

    Recent numbers on the delta variant revealed two very interesting numbers. First, of the unvaccinated people who got Delta, .08% died, again confirming how low the death rate is from the virus. We can assume that more people got infected but not diagnosed because symptoms were mild, so that sets an upper limit on death from COVID. The original study by Pfizer to justify the EUA also showed that only 3 of the 162 unvaccinated people (out of 20,000 closely monitored people) who got infected got severe COVID, and only one of those required hospitalization.

    Second, the death rate from Delta among the vaccinated was .6%, 8 times higher. Granted that the vaccinated were largely older, this still does not bode well.

    Interesting fact about the Delta COVID variant. See here:
    https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/997418/Variants_of_Concern_VOC_Technical_Briefing_17.pdf

    Page 13. 117 people have died of/with the variant in England. 44 were unvaccinated, and 73 were vaccinated. 50 of those had had the full two shots. The death rate in the unvaccinated is .08%. The death rate in people who have had two shots is .69%

    That is a disaster. The overall death rate from COVID is about .1%.

      Thanks for the link, DrTom. I’m guessing I won’t see this on BBC News.

      A while back, when Big Pharma were fudging numbers to get the highest % efficacy for their ‘product’, my instinct told me they’d be lucky to hit 50% never mind 95%. What I never imagined was that they would lead to an increase in deaths, yet here is some tentative proof.

      Autumn/Winter will be the real test. I think Jim is right, it will come back again regardless of vaccines. It will be interesting to observe the reaction and behaviour of both governments and the masked when it does.

      This was discussed in the previous cycle, and without one or two other stats, it is hard to draw conclusions that are dire, and in fact they are positive. The BBC pointed this out.

      Overall, what the numbers above don’t include are all the older people who came in contact with the virus but did not contract Covid-19, or only did so very mildly. Prior to the vaccine rollout, a large percentage of Covid deaths were among the elderly, and now that percentage seems to be falling, because a much higher proportion of the elderly are vaccinated.

      So it appears that for the 60+ or 70+ cohorts it is far better to be vaccinated if you come into contact with – or indeed contract – the virus. Your risks of serious hospitalisation or death appear to be proportionately much lower, despite your age, if vaccinated.

      This would appear to be “good” news – and shows yet again we need to be careful with raw statistics. We also need to carefully monitor the longevity of the immunisation cover, and also its effectiveness against the Delta Variant, and others.

      And from JHK’s essay:

      Enjoy the summer while you can because Corona Virus is coming back in the fall and watch out for people who are vaccinated getting sicker than the un-vaxed.

      If this is implying that those who are fully vaccinated AND contract Covid-19 might have a worse outcome (death, serious illness) than had they not been vaccinated – then I haven’t seen evidence that indicates this.

      In fact the reverse should hold – many more people will not contract it at all, or only mildly … and the benefits increase as you get to 60 or older.

      OTOH, if the statement is predicting that those who suffer Covid-19 the most in the Fall will be the vaxxed rather the un-vaxxed in general – I can’t buy that without rather more evidence.

      It might be the case that a solid proportion of those who have serious illness or die are vaccinated, but mainly because those most likely to do worst will be the frail old, right across the vaxxed – un-vaxxed spectrum.

      And further, those more likely to succumb to Covid-19 (mostly, but not only the old, but anyone immuno-compromised) might also be the cohort for whom the vaccines work least well.

      But we can’t ignore that millions won’t contract the disease at all, and they otherwise might have – had they not been vaccinated.

      Again it’s a case of being cautious with statistics, and being modest in drawing conclusions – especially on here with so many who are not only vehement anti-vaxxers, but also earnestly believe the mRNA vaccines are a planned cull.

          It’s what every human being does every single day, in every transaction – even, or possibly especially, in their marriage.

          Anyway – my comments weren’t so much about the spin-doctoring, more about the selective use and mis-use of raw numbers.

          The most obvious one is “X % of Covid-19 deaths were vaccinated (or unvaccinated, depending on your spin)”.

          It is meaningless without knowing ages, percent of the cohort vaccinated, and the percent of total cases (from where the deaths occurred) that were vaccinated at that time. And are we talking about the last year or the last month?

          But the one stat we can’t get is how many people avoided being infected because they are vaccinated.

          And I for one haven’t disagreed. I have argued for targeted vaccination, some social distancing and masks, quarantine for travellers, but otherwise let businesses and schools operate.

          But there is a cohort – say the average-healthy 50-80 year-olds for whom the risks from vaccination are absolutely minuscule compared to Covid-19 itself.

          And it might stop a proportion of bad deaths in nursing homes – nothing to lose dispensing it there of course.

          And for the young-healthy (20-50) other issues arise – especially in respect of whether vaccines should be mandatory for entry into certain roles – health care, transport … or any place where you are in confined contact with lots of strangers.

            “And for the young-healthy (20-50) other issues arise – …

            Indeed. I have a nephew living in Hamburg since just before the crud arrived. He’s just 31, single, and living in a flat with other Ph.D. students.

            His real fear is the risk of ‘long COVID’ as he’s seen several people in his cohort come down with the (original) virus and still, after many months, not recover to their full pre-infection fitness.

            It’s grim, and while anecdotal, it’s real and in his personal experience. He’s currently in quarantine because a flatmate tested positive last week.

            His field is microbiology as well, so he has some idea of how tiny little things work, certainly better than the vast majority of the board’s denizens.

            He wants the vaccine.

            Yes – it’s “interesting” how some of the self-styled insiders on here are quick to highlight adverse reactions to the various vaccines, but totally brush away stories about the adverse reactions to – and bad outcomes from – contracting the virus itself, even though the percentage risks of the latter are higher by several orders of magnitude than from vaccination.

            And as I said, Covid-19 risks rise significantly for those over 60 or 70 and onwards.

            A pointless appeal to authority, RL. Nobody needs a degree in virology to examine the real-world data and work out the actual threat.

            Anybody scared of ‘long Covid’ (LOL) can avail themselves of a safe and effective experimental vaccine and wear an N95 mask on their face for the rest of their life ‘just in case’.

            It might be an idea to take your nephew’s car keys away too, ‘just in case’ he hurts himself in a crash. Perhaps he should also avoid swimming to minimise the risk of drowning and maybe never climb a ladder again. Safest of all would be to remain quarantined in perpetuity.

    According to the article, the CCP launched a massive social media campaign in ITALY to advertise its coronavirus lockdown measures in early March.”

          At the end of the day, Lockdowns in various countries of the world did not come about because of a decision imposed by China or some influence operation undertaken by China to sway decisions. The domestic elite, the rulers/authorities of each country, are responsible for the decisions made by that country and for the fate of their people. IMO, CNN and BBC are far more responsible for what went down in the US and UK than the Chinese could ever be.

        • thirdcoastlegend July 5, 2021 at 2:16 pm #

          Maybe.

          I tend to go back and forth on this point.

          We do know, based on the WEF’s published output, that the WEF thinks the Chinese command economy is just the best thing since sliced bread.

          So, it could be a situation where the WEF is simply taking its cues from the CCP rather than actively colluding with them.

          • Night Owl July 5, 2021 at 2:50 pm #

            There is no maybe in it for me.

            They have aided and abetted China in building its economy for several decades. And they have (in the Paris Accords, for example) allowed them to pollute to their heart’s desire, while Europe and the United States are forced to go in the opposite direction. Climate lockdowns are in store for us to finish the economic hit job started by the Covid Hoax.

            The WEF/bankster group (GloboCap as CJ Hopkins refers to them) are pushing for China to become the sole hegemon, which is also why most manufacturing has moved there, and why they are working to use the Chinese Social Credit score model in the US and Europe.

            Interesting aside: the Chinese have already been in talks with the EU to run the Covid vaxx pass/World ID program.

          • Hereward the Woke July 5, 2021 at 5:33 pm #

            A key facet of the WEF types is their arrogance and obtuseness. They probably think they are using China for their dirty work. In reality, I’m sure the hard-headed CCP folks are laughing up their sleeves at the effete globalists of Davos.

    • Tekapo July 5, 2021 at 11:29 pm #

      According to the article, the CCP launched a massive social media campaign in ITALY to advertise its coronavirus lockdown measures in early March.

      Because both Northern Italy (and Iran) were two of the very earliest places outside China itself, where Covid-19 hotspots really emerged. Thailand was another. No mystery, no conspiracy, no smoking gun, no hoax.

      Just a nasty public health emergency starting in Wuhan – that turned into a pandemic.

      ——-

      In light of Good writing and killer sentences, I now include my modern Homer-like poem that I wrote yesterday.

      ——-

      Alberta Crude

      July the 4th
      Carrying on
      Going north
      Before the dawn

      I remember ’21
      Like it was yesterday
      One, two and done
      Oblivious to what was in play

      They told us to line
      They promised us “normal”
      That we could again dine
      Casual and formal

      But we started to drop
      And then the earthquake hit
      It Just wouldn’t stop
      A complete storm of shit

      Tens and hundreds and thousands
      More and more every day
      The unjabbed ran for the Crown Lands
      The jabbed, the city stay

      But that was 2021
      Many years ago
      We had missed our fun
      And ignored what we did not know

      Weddings had been planned
      Graduations postponed
      Condos on shifting sand
      Airspace increasingly droned

      Seattle buckled in the heat
      Vancouver too
      Hurricane Fernando complete
      From the Gulf up to the Soo

      I remember his eyes
      They had taught him to hate
      A hundred million lies
      He scoped my fate

      Frozen in fear
      “Forgive him, please God!”
      But then the sun burst clear
      And they bombed the whole squad

      Pack up the bag
      It’s never empty long
      Down to half a mag
      Half a mag and a song

      “Is it safe to travel at night?”
      “It’s not safe to stay here.” 1
      “What will we do about sight?”
      “I don’t know. C’mere.”

      You know that they are coming
      You know that we’ll be caught
      But you’ll feel the beats drumming
      At least until you’re shot

      We go now to high ground
      Tomorrow we’ll forage for food
      Do not make a sound
      Alberta crude

    What in the heck does this mean? What is “inflation tied to deflation?” Does that mean some of the good we purchase are getting more expensive while others are getting cheaper? If so, isn’t that the completely normal state of affairs?

    It sounds to me like Jim is hedging on his prediction of the past year on HYPERINFLATION!!!

        I agree with you that the housing market has gotten ridiculous. I hope we allow a lot more housing to be built so that supply and demand can come back to some sort of healthier equilibrium. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of NIMBYism amd restrictive zoning that makes it difficult to build sufficient supply of housing in places where it makes sense o do so. Jim used to write very smart things about this very issue.

        • O.G. Hawkins July 5, 2021 at 2:05 pm #

          And then there’s that whole depop program that they are running Right now. Let’s consider that.

            I do not believe that there is any such depop program. What’s your timeline for when the 67 percent of American adults who have been vaccinated drop dead and we see a United States population of only 100 million or so? Or do only a percentage of the vaccinated die under this program?

        • Islander July 5, 2021 at 2:40 pm #

          Yeah, I just read an analysis whose point was:
          Are we in a housing bubble or not?

          There were points on both sides, but the last point was:

          We are not in a “bubble” (i.e., housing “overpriced”) because the main feature of the situ is that there simply isn’t enough housing to meet the need. So the supply/demand relationship is out of whack until more housing is produced.

          Regarding the NIMBY issue, I happen to live in a very beautiful area and would much prefer senstitively designed multifamily units within already built-up areas of town to opening up undeveloped areas to blobs of new housing. Ths is the opening shot for sprawl, and this is one of the reasons, IMHO, for the extreme nimbyism related to a lot of new housing

          The other one is that if you live in a nice little community and a developer accepts any state funding for new housing, then you have to accept applicants from all over the state. This has measurable downsides regarding social issues. It is much better for localities to retain control of the financing of their local housing and retain control of who gets it—i.e., local people, not outlandres. (I am talking about “affordable housing,” not luxury housing. Terribly PC, but I think this is a major stumbling block to creating more housing.

            This is what Critical Race Theory (CRT) talks about precisely. Even when there are racially affirmative laws on the books in theory, systemic racism “real” kicks in to ensure that people of color continue to face discrimination.

            It’s why some whiteys hate CRT – not because it’s false, but because it’s true.

            You suggest solving the out of whackness of Supply / Demand only has 1 way to equilibrium: more Supply.

            You neglect that another way to equilibrium would be less Demand.

            No- we’ve covered this ground comprehensively before.

            When the dominant race/group (usually white) oppresses or discriminates a minority because of the colour of their skin or ethnic background, it is “racist”. Racism is an aggressive political act, not just a neutral transaction.

            But despite the best efforts of some white hats, it is not a two-way street. It is not a+b = b+a, it is a-b to b-a. Minorities can do all sorts of insulting and rude things to dominant majorities, but it ain’t racist.

          Capitalist Man! The tiny house project showed promise, but people immediately tried to make “a thing” out of it – make them into ego objects for well heeled bohos, instead of housing for the desperate, whose numbers will only increase. Thus what started as 20,000 and could have gone down as they went into mass production skyrocketed to 50,000 as the elite Builders moved in to satisfy conspicuous consumption.

          And NIMBY kept the cheap ones out of neighborhoods. So it has come to nothing.

          Thoughts of Jaquces Attali
          (founder and President of the European Bank of Reconstruction & Development)
          on the proper disposal of surplus humans:

          “The future will be about finding a way to reduce the population. We start with the old, because as soon as they exceed 60-65 years, people live longer than they produce and that costs society dearly. Then the weak, then the useless that do not help society because there will always be more of them, and above all, ultimately, the stupid. Euthanasia targeting these groups; Euthanasia will have to be an essential tool in our future societies, in all cases. Of course, we will not be able to execute people or build camps. We get rid of them by making them believe that it is for their own good.

          Overpopulation, and mostly useless (sic), is something that is too costly economically. Socially, too, it is much better when the human machine comes to an abrupt standstill than when it gradually deteriorates. Neither will we be able to test millions upon millions of people for their intelligence, you bet that!

          We will find or cause something a pandemic targeting certain people, a real economic crisis or not, a virus affecting the old or the fat, it doesn’t matter, the weak will succumb to it, the fearful and stupid will believe in it and seek treatment.

          We will have made sure that treatment is in place, treatment that will be the solution. The selection of idiots then takes care of itself: You go to the slaughter by yourself. ”

    stephanie kelton and the MMT proponents don’t advocate for flooding the economy with dollars,that would be stupid.Japans central bank has been buying it’s own governments bonds for decades at extremely low interest rates which are set by their own treasury/central bank and the economy has’nt exploded in Zimbabwe style inflation.When are conservatives going to learn that close to full employment,a very good retirement system for people aged 62/63 if they choose to retire and a decent medicare/medicaid sytem might be election winners.I believe trump won in 2016 in large part on economic nationalism and the fact that he promised not to cut those programs.It is simply a fact that if there is political will bond vigilantes can be sidelined by a govternment willing to do so.The feds actually can buy and retire their own debt if they want to.What they want to spen it on is another matter.

      When are conservatives going to learn that close to full employment, a very good retirement system for people aged 62/63 if they choose to retire and a decent medicare/medicaid system might be election winners.

      I agree entirely. but the conservative right has such ideological blinders on that they cannot see it. They win elections through gerrymanders and voter suppression – not via popular policies.

      And their masters and donors simply refuse to allow any reworking of the pie. A redistribution of wealth by just 5% – and they all scream “Communism!”. Spending on working people is criminal.

      And conservative politicians are craven enough to do their bidding.

      Moscow Mitch McConnell came out this week and said that it is appropriate to give trillions of taxpayer dollars to the wealthy and corporations through the Trump tax cuts, but it is inappropriate to create jobs to deal with the climate crisis, help people with child care, or providing funding for the care of our seniors and citizens with serious health issues.

    Is John Kerry, Climate Czar and Boston Brahmin, besties with Joe Manchin, D, who grew up in a hardscrabble coal mining town in West Virginia?

    The Climate Czar, calling Joe Manchin, inviting him up to the Vineyard for the weekend:

    “Joe, come on up to the Vineyard for a weekend on my motoryacht. I’ll send my Gulfstream down to DC to pick you up. Obama, Blinken, Janet Yellin and other neighbors are coming over for chardonnay and Kobe beef; we’ll be discussing Climate Change, and the end of coal.”

        A $20 million cottage is a small price to pay, if it can get the turncoat coal-boy to vote loyally with his Party, and stop regurgitating all the “bipartisanship” fairy dust.

        The Republicans are utterly ruthless – they don’t give a fig about “bipartisanship” whenever they have the slimmest of majorities.

        And the Dems won’t get anything done while the filibuster remains in play. Mitch McConnell will just run out the clock until November next year.

          Technics dominate this dark world, Tek. Scrabble isn’t won by spelling ability alone, but operating on the power squares. The filibuster is grotesque, but it has saved us again and again. Trump wanted to get rid of it too. Thus you are like Trump!

          Ever look at the Scrabble dictionary? It’s filled with imaginary words, created by the technical needs of Scrabble. Perhaps in the New White Republic, we will use an English variant or dialect based on this book.

          In Mr Smith Goes to Washington, Smith (Jimmy Stewart) collapses during a fillibsuter while reading St Paul. Can you imagine yourself ever being so noble?

          • Tekapo July 5, 2021 at 3:26 pm #

            Whatever future risks Democrats would face with no filibuster to thwart out-of-control Republicans – the risk is well worth it.

            The Republicans are quite happy to use the Senate – for decades and decades – to block everything except money bills, tax cuts, and court appointments. They want nothing else to get through, because they don’t want change, let alone reform.

            With the filibuster (super-majority) in place, there is little point in Democrats – or any party with a reform agenda – winning the house or the presidency. Why bother?

            Thus you are like Trump! Not good logic there. Tek likes chocolate ice cream Yoho likes chocolate ice cream. Therefore Tek is like Yoho!

        How true.
        I went to my doc purely to ask her to give me a vaxx exemption. Which she sort of agreed to do, based on my medical history (vascular issues).

        I get an email directing to a website where I can find the results of my visit (she took my blood pressure and weighed me!). Which I did not sign in for nor access.

        Then I get a popup on my desktop from something called “Covexit.”
        This didn’t come via email. So how did it find its way to my computer?

        Two days later I get a call from the hospital radiation center; she has registered me for a mammogram. I said No thanks.

        I am going to have to tell her NOT to include my info in anything and NOT to sign me up for anything without discussing with me first.
        After I get the exemption.
        Which will be very mealy-mouthed because she didn’t dare make a physician’s recommendation based on my medical history but will only write “Patient prefers . . .”
        WTF.

          Robinson Crusoe saw a footprint in the sand. He immediately was overcome by romantic thoughts, imagining it was a woman’s. But as he got closer, he saw it was large – larger than his own foot. He was filled with terror. He had come to know that cannibals occasionally landed on his island to practice their craft. He thenceforth lived a more cautious and secluded life, mostly staying on his part of the island, well inland.

    Good news. The little boy is keeping his dick – for the time being. But he is still deep in the woods. Evidently Dad’s going public convinced the other side that going forward would be a public relations nightmare. Evil flourishes in the darkness.

    Lifesite News:

    A hearing was held today in the ongoing tug of war between the divorced parents of James Younger, the nine-year old Texas boy whose mom refers to him as a girl named “Luna,” but whose dad wants to protect from “gender transitioning.”

    James’ father, Jeffrey Younger, spoke out about his legal battle on behalf of his son earlier this week, telling LifeSiteNews’ John-Henry Westen that he was preparing for the possibility of going to jail for disregarding a court gag order.

    The specter of jail time was eliminated early in today’s proceeding. Jeffrey Younger’s expressed concern about his ex-wife’s quest for one hundred percent control over all medical decisions for his son was also alleviated.???

    James’ mother, Dr. Anne Georgulas, had originally petitioned the court to grant her unilateral rights to make decisions regarding “gender-affirming” surgical procedures for James, but amended that request Friday evening, just hours before this morning’s hearing.?

    Demons only have horns in video games. In real life, they have vaginas.

    “This litigation has been going on for six years, ever since the divorce proceeding was filed,” said Younger’s attorney, Connor Nash.? “Mom has always been the petitioner, has always been the aggressor.”?“Not only does this constant litigation harm the kids, it harms [both] parties and the resources they can spend on their kids,” said Nash.

    “So today, mom is trying to take exclusive control over the medical, dental, surgical, psychiatric, psychological, and educational decisions for the children,” explained Nash.??“Dad, for obvious reasons, wants to have a say in this,” he continued, “especially when one of the children is demonstrating some kind of gender issue.”

    Nash noted that although James’ mom’s attorney opened by stating that today’s proceeding is not about the gender issue, he disagreed vehemently.

    “It’s entirely about the gender issue,” declared Nash, “because that’s how the counseling argument got started.? One counselor was seeing the kid as a different gender than how the kid presents at the dad’s house, so he stopped participating in the counseling and he had a substantial and compelling reason for doing so.”

    “He wanted to protect his kids,” added Nash.

    At the close of the 4-hour hearing, Judge Mary Brown of the 301st Judicial District Court in Dallas, Texas, said that she continues to expect both parties to follow the “roadmap” provided in an extremely detailed 26-page order given to both parties on January 29, 2020.

    Brown will issue her decision(s) concerning today’s hearing at a yet-to-be-disclosed future date.

    Anglin: This case is a landmark case on a father’s rights regarding a woman cutting his son’s penis off.

    What that implies is that the father is going to lose.

    But, you know – fingers crossed.

    Yoho: Dad must be ready with an Underground Railroad. Women dominate family courts – to the vast detriment of men since the radicals took it over generations ago. Yet Mary is outraged at MRA or Men’s Rights Advocacy. Telling, is it not. O my Brothers?

        If I read the article correctly, starting at age 3 Mom decided her son was a daughter and wants complete control to force this issue. If the facts in this article are correct, IMO this is child abuse, pure and simple.

    CJ Hopkins nails it again. This guy and I have nearly the same brain.

    “Now imagine that you were an immensely powerful, globally hegemonic ideological system, and you wanted to impose your ideology on as much of the entire world as possible, but you didn’t have an ideology per se, or any actual values at all, because exchange value was your only real value, and so your mission was to erase all ideologies, and values, and truths, and belief systems, and so on, and transform everything and everyone in existence into de facto commodities that you could manipulate any way you wanted, because they had no inherent value whatsoever, because their only real value was assigned by the market.

    How would you go about doing that, erasing all existing values, religious, cultural, and social values, and rendering everything a valueless commodity?

    Well, you wouldn’t want to destroy reality completely, because people wouldn’t stand for that. They would freak right out. Things would get ugly. So, instead, you might want to go the other way, and generate a lot of contradictory realities, not just contradictory ideologies, but actual mutually-exclusive realities, which could not possibly simultaneously exist … which would still freak people out pretty badly.

    Naturally, there would be one official reality that you would force everyone to rigidly conform to at any given moment in time, but you would change the official reality frequently, and force everyone to conform to the new one (and pretend that they’d never conformed to the old one), and then, once they had settled into that one, you would change the official reality again, until people’s brains just shut down completely, and they gave up trying to make sense of anything, and just tried to figure out what you wanted them to believe on any given day.

    If you repeated that process long enough, eventually, nothing would mean anything anymore, because everything could potentially mean anything … at which point, you could basically tell people anything you wanted and they would go along with it, because what the hell difference would it make? A narcissistic billionaire ass-clown could be a Russian agent and literally Hitler. A half-assed riot could be an “insurrection.” Children could be born “systemically racist.” Men could menstruate.

    But wait … it’s gets better.

    You could stage an apocalyptic global pandemic that only happened in certain countries, or in certain parts of certain countries, and that more or less mirrored natural mortality, and that didn’t drastically increase historical death rates, but was nonetheless totally apocalyptic.

    Perfectly healthy people could become “medical cases.” You could count anyone who died of anything as having died of your apocalyptic virus. You could tell people in no uncertain terms that medical-looking masks will not protect them from viruses, and then turn around and tell them that they will, and then, later, publicly admit you were lying in order to manipulate them, and then deny you ever said that, and tell them to wear masks.

    You could experimentally “vaccinate” millions of people whose risk of becoming seriously ill or dying from your apocalyptic virus was minuscule or non-existent, and kill tens or hundreds of thousands in the process, and the people whose brains you had methodically broken would thank you for murdering their friends and neighbors, and then rush out to their local discount drugstore to experimentally “vaccinate” their own kids and post pictures of it on the Internet.

    At that point, you wouldn’t really have to worry about “populist uprisings,” or “terrorism,” or any other type of insurgent activity, because the vast majority of the global population would be scramble-headed automatons who were totally incapable of independent thought, and who had no idea what was real and what wasn’t, so just repeated whatever new script you fed them like customer-service representatives on Haldol.”

    That’s it, kids. That is what they are doing to you.

      I would first try to find out who exactly are the people in charge and then work out their ideology from (1) what they have actually said, (2) what they have done, (3) what causes they provide financial support t, (4) what policies they lobby for, (5) what foreign policy goals they appear to pursue. I would also study earlier generations of this class of person, perhaps close or distant family relations. That should give a pretty sound base for making a hypothesis.

      I agree that they would try to create an alternative reality and more and more people have come to realize this. I would be doubtful, though, about their ability to recognize true reality because they must be completely deluded to behave so foolishly. (For some reason a page from that Italian book (Gomorrah I think, or Camorrah) comes to mind. The author said that these Mafia types loved to watch films glamourizing the Mafia and I think they cast themselves in that light. In other words, they were prisoners of a fantasy.)

      It appears to me that they are richer beyond what can be imagined, they want to exercise their immense influence in politics, including the promotion of extreme left wing ideology in corporate life and they want to destroy civilization and make it anew. Insanity. I still have difficulty in accepting that they take this ‘transhumanist’ caper seriously. They also combine, I suspect, these delusoiins of grandeur with the pettiest vices, such as personal grudges. The treatment of Trump at their hands springs to mind. I believe they are slaves to their passions.

      He makes a good point about the mixed messages, the blatant contradictions. Some argue that this is deliberate and intended to defeat the people and it is hard to disagree.

      I have to say that they are thoroughly wicked and need to be stopped. Has anyone ever tried to do it? If so, what happened?

      Getting sick from seasonal flu, just like now. The only wild card is that you have taken a shot that has put you at risk for an anaphylactic reaction and potentially death when you encounter that normally harmless seasonal flu. Just like the ferrets in the MRNA tests.

      You should look carefully at the way the stats are packaged in these “99% of infections are now in unvaccinated” stories. They are juked. It’s not cut and dry at all. They are fiddling with the sample time period among other things.

      • Tekapo July 5, 2021 at 3:46 pm #

        You need to be very sceptical about how the stats are packaged by the anti-vaxxers as well.

        No-one has every claimed total immunity for the vaccines – it’s all a balancing of risk.

        The reality remains that at least for those over 60, it is far better to be vaccinated when you “contract” Covid-19 than to not be vaccinated – and for most people that is a good enough outcome.

        I contracted polio as a teenager – but because of vaccination I had an unpleasant two weeks in a darkened room, but didn’t wind up as a cripple, or in an iron lung – others did.

        There is no evidence at all that the vaccinated are going to do worse against Covid-19 (or the flu) in the future. I don’t understand where this comes from.

          It’s a pity that none of your cohorts in the government and mainstream media gave any thought to the ‘balance of risk’ when it came to putting experimental vaccinations into children and young, healthy adults.

          • Tekapo July 5, 2021 at 5:11 pm #

            Why are they “my cohorts” – I don’t think it’s necessary to vaccinate everyone either. It’s a blunt instrument – a shotgun to kill a fly. But it’s what governments do – they go for overkill, because getting the response to be “just right” carries too much political risk if it screws up.

      I suspect the people getting sick from COVID-19 in the Fall will be the same group getting sick now, those that are not vaccinated.

      I think you’re totally correct, but such common sense usually earns you few friends on here, and results in a volley of tinfoil from the dark web. Often topped off with ad hominem insults.

    We’re now at the Singularity, long predicted by the Seers. The Elite no longer pretend to believe in the Constitution or that America is good and they are its champions. They’ve thrown aside the mask and now condemn all of it as evil – thus admitting that America is by definition White and Christian (whom they’ve long condemned as evil).

    No more middle ground. Choose.

    Jimbo…a decent screed, but I expected at least some lip service to the Florida condo collapse, given your history of excoriating high-rise buildings as a future living arrangement. Meanwhile, the NYT (yeah, I know, MSM…shame on me!).publishes a front-page map of towers in NYC built during the 70s and 80s. Wonder how many of these will come crashing down in the (near) future?

    Note to Farmgirl: I agree, Atlanta is a hellhole, but what about Plains?
    Happy 75th to Jimmy and Roslyn. A shitty president, maybe (like someone else I know) but at least he had the common decency to make something of his life after he left Washington.

      I expected at least some lip service to the Florida condo collapse, given your history of excoriating high-rise buildings as a future living arrangement.

      Possibly JHK might have something to say when more is known about the reasons for the collapse, but you would predict it was a whole series of cascading causes, revolving around money, lack of care, and general hubris. So a clusterfuck.

      I don’t recall JHK attacking 12 floors as a poor residential solution – he’s certain taken a big bite out of suburban sprawl and mega-towers. But from my reading, medium density low-mid rise (3-15 floors) can be the most efficient, in terms of energy use, and the provision of services and amenity in the neighborhood.

      Paris isn’t my favourite city, but there is something very charming and human scale about lots of its precincts, with many fairly uniform (and quality) apartment buildings of around 4-6 floors.

      In respect of the NYT graphic of buildings from the 70s and 80s, this is occurring all around the US, and I expect anywhere in the world with an apartment boom from the 1960s onwards.

      Many such buildings are either reaching the end of their economic life (if not suffering structural failure), but can you get the 100-200 owners to stump up the $10 million for renovations and repairs?

      And if not, can you get 100-200 owners to agree to sell – so they get a slice of the land value because it will be demolished? Lots of boomer owners want to stay, as it will be their last home. There are some difficult times ahead – not just for Miami Beach.

      The high number of shootings in Chicago, which I assume are largely the result of turf battles among illegal drug-selling gangs, suggest the illegal drug business is currently more profitable than ever. The deliberately open southern border must be keeping the inventory of illegal drugs everywhere higher than ever. The lack of support for law enforcement in many cities also suggests that “the Big Guy” (Biden) and his family and friends are getting their share of the profits.

      And are we finally leaving Afghanistan because fentanyl has rendered heroin obsolete and unnecessary?

      Candace Owens has stated that those in charge who urge the defunding of the police in U.S. cities seek to cause residents under crime siege to demand the formation of a federal police force. I.e., give the feds full control over all state and local police. Further reduce what local resistance there would be to full federal tyranny. She’s brilliant and probably right on this point.

      • Tekapo July 5, 2021 at 5:54 pm #

        The deliberately open southern border must be keeping the inventory of illegal drugs everywhere higher than ever.

        If the supply is greater than ever, shouldn’t the price go down?

        • JohnAZ July 5, 2021 at 11:35 pm #

          No!

          The cartels set the supply and therefore the price. In the US, the demand is for all intents, infinite.

          In this country, soon, there will be traders in the illicit trades and gimme welfare types, with a few legitimate folks in between.

          Who is going to stop the Elite PTB from transforming this poor excuse for a country?

          No wonder the drug trade is so good, it is the only thing the gimmes have to do.

          Wow! Just think about those PTB. Feed the masses with UBI, they buy drugs, the money goes into the pockets of the PTB.

      Forty five minutes later no cop and the black lady was screaming at anyone who would listen about this was the last fourth of July for us evil white Americans.

      Needless to say she went down the well of angry black woman because white people are just evil and all sorts of profanity and ridiculous nonsense was spewing out of her mouth.

    Excellent post again today Mr. K. I’m of two minds these days about the CV19/Vaxx hoax. Not quite sure whether it’s the vaxxed that will be paying the price this fall for their stupidity, or whether the vaxx was a genuine preventative for the next iteration of bio-warfare the globalists are about to unleash upon us, thus reinforcing to the remainder of the herd the importance of doing what they’re told and towing the line to big pharma. I suppose it could go either way. But either way, I’m not taking the poison prick, and that’s that. If I die of “natural causes” due to lack of immunity to the globalists’ latest bio-warfare population control measure, then I’m just fine with that. No one lives forever and I, for one, certainly don’t want to in a world like that.

    • Hereward the Woke July 5, 2021 at 5:42 pm #

      True, Disaffected (or should it be DisInfected?). I find it as hard to believe that millions of the vaxxed will die as I do to believe that China flu has or will kill millions. We just don’t know.

      https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-07-05/israel-sees-decline-in-pfizer-vaccine-efficacy-rate-ynet-says

      Rather than disparage one or two aspects of the every deepening complexity, it’s best to throw the whole thing out. Who says there is a variant? Or that Covid exists either? Or if there is or was, that Pfizer offered a 95% immunity? Let them prove any of it.

      What we do know is the vaccine is deadly. That in a healthy civilization, it would already be off the market. But they have no intention of doing so. So from that we can infer that they don’t care about human life – which means nothing they say is to be believed and nothing they prescribe should be taken.

    • KappaJoe July 6, 2021 at 4:48 am #

      That the injection might actually be protective of a new, potentially deadlier bioweapon is, of course, a possibility. But the many injuries and deaths (so far) from this media-hyped, zero-liability, experimental injection would strongly suggest the opposite.

      2. Endlessly trawl twitter for affirming scuttlebutt
      3. Decide it is true because he agrees with it
      4. The absence of any evidence is a mere detail
      5. Re-post lame tweet on this forum as if it’s meaningful
      6. Sit back with smug smile
      7. Rinse and repeat ad nauseam

      Reality – there are no results from the Arizona exercise, even after shipping stuff to the CEO’s log cabin in Montana. Perhaps the Arizona Senate isn’t going to get the “report” that they thought was in the bank.

            It’s not about cultural superiority at all – travel is a passion and I like chatting about it – especially in these Covid-ravaged times when we can’t do it.

            If someone mentions a place I’ve been to, I like mentioning it. I wish others would do it more too. What harm is there to sharing such indulgences?

            I guess if you’ve spent your entire life within New Jersey, then talk of travel might be a bit of a pisser. I actually met a 40-something woman in a hostel near Yosemite NP – she came from LA, and was scoping the place for a big excursion for her special-ed school kids.

            She had never been as far as Yosemite NP, and never out of California. I found it extraordinary, but maybe it’s not that uncommon. I dunno.

          just remind yourself it’s for our democracy

          I need to remind you – and I assume you support the US Constitution – that the 50 states (plus DC and territories) are responsible for conducting their own elections, and by proxy, federal elections.

          And 49 states certified their elections by the safe-harbor date of December 8, with Wisconsin only one day late because of a delayed legal procedure. And almost all the swing states that decided the election had Republican election officials.

          I have never stated that the 2020 federal elections were completely fair and above board, but my view doesn’t matter. In not one of 60 cases before 84 different judges and justices (mostly Republican-appointed) was there a determination that there was election fraud.

          Are they all working for Joe Biden? All working for Klaus Schwab and the WEF? Please … the onus is on the election-steal believers to make their case – and they have overwhelmingly failed to get to first base.

          Not my fault – I am a mere humble impartial observer and commentator, and a sceptic of conspiracies. I’m no fan of the Democrats either – they’re just another conservative mainstream party in a generally very unpleasant political system that no-one seems to have the will to improve.

          Any half-bright non-partisan person could come up with 50 ways to improve the system. The burger-flippers at McDonald’s could do it. But entrenched forces on both sides resist any reforms.

    I saw something this morning while buying gasoline, perhaps connected to the spirit of this holiday in an off-beat way..

    A nice family in a new expensive SUV piled out of their vehicle into the convenience store, leaving the keys and one small dog behind. When they returned they discovered their dog had jumped on the button locking all the doors.

    They tried all manner of coaxing and pleading to get Fluffy to jump on the right button to unlock the door. Alas to no avail. The little Shit-tzu acted disdainfully unsympathetic to the distress it was causing.

    Then other people came to help. Everyone had a theory. One guy thought if he held up his dog to the car window, Fluffy would jump around and accidentally hit the right button. Another brought a menacing collection of tools to break into the vehicle.

    I thought it a touching example of American cooperation and unity in a crisis. No one asked about ideology or voting history. It was an inspirational moment as 15 Caucasians were trying to outsmart one little Canine-American. I drove away. For all I know, they’re still trying.

        E-field: No lawyer with a pulse would sue Fluffy. No assets. Obviously, by American judicial reasoning, the gas station’s negligence was in evidence by there being inadequate signage reminding customers not to leave their keys in the car with a pet. In addition, the associated oil company would have vicarious liability for granting a franchise to someone prone to such negligence.

        And why not throw in the car manufacturer for the obvious design flaw that would allow such a thing to happen? Include the dealership who sold the car to the plaintiff.

        Now this might be a stretch, but you might also include the bank or finance company that loaned the money to the purchaser to buy the defective vehicle. Knowingly profiting from encouraging a purchase of a dangerous product. What an Outrage, ladies and gentlemen. (Sorry for the antiquated language; not up on this week’s acceptable identifiers.)

      Hilarious!

      While biking today, I saw a woman who appeared to be struggling a bit with a dog and her phone. Pulled over, she had snagged a lost dog (who was very sweet) and she herself had a hyper golden. So I helped her by giving the dogs cookies and having them sit while she tried to call the name on the tag. She had just been a tad overwhelmed. I love doing this kinda stuff. I would have had fun with that situation you describe.

      Apparently, AAA can unlock cars? I actually locked myself out of my car 2 weeks ago – my keys were in the same hand as what I bought in the store and I tossed ’em in the trunk and shut it. DAMMIT. Thankfully all I had to do was call a friend to give me a ride home to get the extra key.

    I am outraged. The Chicago SunTimes, has reported that 92 people were shot over the 4th of July weekend, with 16 killed….and six kids were among them.

    It is about time that someone told the simple truth regarding the Chicago Violence…Tell the truth, and call a spade a spade…throw the underwear on the wall, and see what sticks…

    It was the fault of that fucking Donald Trump. His overt racism and jingoistic rhetoric has made the blacks in the city mad with rage and lusting for blood (black blood, as it turns out). There are “whiteys” who will tell you that it is just a “black thing”…that the blacks are uncivilized, unable to behave in polite society. True, the vast majority of the shooters, and victims were black. BUT NOT ALL! There were two cops shot…call them blue.

    https://chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2021/7/3/22561910/chicago-weekend-shootings-july-2-5-homicide-gun-violence

    Chicago mayor Lauri (rocket) Lightfoot abides. Trump should be taken out, shot, hanged by the neck until dead, and then given life in prison without parole. Racist bastard that he is.

    The blood of hundreds… no thousands, of blacks are on his hands…maybe tens of thousands…six million even….

    Glenn Greenwald does the real journalism work (sorry Tekapo, your beloved MSM lies lies lies):

    The Media Lied Repeatedly About Officer Brian Sicknick’s Death. And They Just Got Caught.

    “Just as with the Russia Bounty debacle, they will never acknowledge what they did. Their audience wants to be lied to for partisan gain and emotional pleasure.

    It was crucial for liberal sectors of the media to invent and disseminate a harrowing lie about how Officer Brian Sicknick died. That is because he is the only one they could claim was killed by pro-Trump protesters at the January 6 riot at the Capitol.

    So The New York Times on January 8 published an emotionally gut-wrenching but complete fiction that never had any evidence — that Officer Sicknick’s skull was savagely bashed in with a fire extinguisher by a pro-Trump mob until he died — and, just like the now-discredited Russian bounty story also unveiled by that same paper, cable outlets and other media platforms repeated this lie over and over in the most emotionally manipulative way possible. Just watch a part of what they did and how:

    https://youtu.be/MseLunyiSGk

    As I detailed over and over when examining this story, there were so many reasons to doubt this storyline from the start. Nobody on the record claimed it happened. The autopsy found no blunt trauma to the head. Sicknick’s own family kept urging the press to stop spreading this story because he called them the night of January 6 and told them he was fine — obviously inconsistent with the media’s claim that he died by having his skull bashed in — and his own mother kept saying that she believed he died of a stroke.”

    Because we are weak, stupid and gullible, and refused to stand up to these psychos, they are coming for our animals (which I predicted a year ago). They already came for the kids, and we did nothing.

    It’s either this, or culling. That is what China does from time to time in order to terrorize their population into complicity.

    Cats and dogs ‘should get Covid jabs after all humans to stop spread of variants’

    “EXCLUSIVE: Labour is calling on Ministers to look at giving the coronavirus vaccine to animals once the human population has been dealt with”

    Nice rhetoric, once we’ve been ‘dealt with’. Not ‘cured’, not ‘saved’, not ‘immune’ – DEALT WITH. Words matter.

    Variants don’t exist, neither do cases, neither does Covid19 (not isolated). But now you will have to vaccinate your pet, because Big PHarma wants the profits.

    Do you remember when you were a kid there was always a weird-looking, obtuse kid who’d always inject with a loud “So?!” whenever someone would say something of extreme social, historical, or political import?

    For example: “Over 60,000 brave men died in 3 days at the Battle of Gettysburg. The end result of the US Civil War was the triumph of monopoly Capitalism and the rise of the Robber Barons as the American experiment in Freedom and Republican government died as the US morphed into an Empire, first with that Dick Head fascist Woodrow Wilson during WWI, and later with WWII, and culminating with the rise of the Fourth Branch of government, the fascist Deep State “Intelligence Branch” post WWII that nobody talks about today.”

    “So?!”

    This is what the world is like now. Pervasive Brain Fog….

    Vaccine Stats for June

    Anthony Fauci on Sunday said more than 99 percent of the people who died from COVID-19 in June were not vaccinated, calling the loss of life “avoidable and preventable.”

    “If you look at the number of deaths, about 99.2 percent of them are unvaccinated. About 0.8 percent are vaccinated. No vaccine is perfect. But when you talk about the avoidability of hospitalization and death, Chuck, it’s really sad and tragic that most all of these are avoidable and preventable,” Fauci told host Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

    He added, “I mean, obviously there are going to be some people, because of the variability among people and their response to vaccine, that you’ll see some who are vaccinated and still get into trouble and get hospitalized and die. But the overwhelming proportion of people who get into trouble are the unvaccinated. Which is the reason why we say this is really entirely avoidable and preventable.”

    Nearly 10,000 people died from COVID-19 in June in the U.S., Todd noted. (The Hill July 5)

    As noted elsewhere, this raw data needs to be fleshed out, in terms of ages, and the percentage vaccinated out of all cases in June requiring hospital admission. But still – a significant stat.

            Boris Johnson yesterday stated that restrictions were over in England on July 19th and “we’re just going to have to live with Covid”. Yes, Boris, we are as we have had to learn to live with many other pathogens and take sensible precautions and stop politicizing every damn thing that happens in this world.

            Do the vaccines work? Were they necessary? Is it all a preplanned hoax for control? And there are many other questions that can be added to that list — one of the most important, IMO, is where did it originate.

            I don’t trust Fauci or that silly weeper who’s his assistant or something. It will take years to sort through all the data, half-truths, outright lies and actual evidence to figure out what really happened and the effect of vaccines. The researchers who might be able to glean the truth of this debacle may not even be born yet.

          • Slugoon July 6, 2021 at 1:08 pm #

            SW, what’s interesting (and wholly predictable) is that half the country is now wailing and gnashing its teeth because their mask safety blankets are going to become optional.

            Never mind they that they can wear an N95 or better mask forever to ‘protect’ themselves, or inject any one of a number of ‘safe and effective’ vaccines, what they’re pissed about is that the other half of the population now can’t be pushed around.

            The origins of the the virus will never be confirmed even though it’s fucking obvious to anybody with half a brain. The politicians will feign an official investigation to look like they’re ‘doing something’ and when the conclusion comes back as ‘inconclusive’ it’ll be brushed under the carpet. Everyone saves face.

    I don’t particularly have any confidence that the Summer will be care free of “covid” but certainly welcome a potential reprieve. Tajikistan is the first nation to make the vaxx mandatory for every single citizen 18 and older. A small Muslim nation with a heavy billionaire cosmopolitan ngo fifth column presence is the petrie dish for medical tyranny. Who woulda thunk? Start small, aim big? And the tell tell signs of the vaxx inefficacy and coming trouble can be found in another vaxx testing ground,,Israel. Lotsa vaxxed folks catching and spreading covid delta strain or some such. One vaxxed high school student in Tel Aviv caught covid from a vaxxed relative and spread it to 83 fellow students. Guess the vaxx doesn’t help. Or maybe the purpose of the vaxx has nothing to do with solving/resolving covid””?

    • Tekapo July 6, 2021 at 2:25 am #

      Guess the vaxx doesn’t help.

      It’s difficult to draw that conclusion from the information provided. The vaccine might help considerably in preventing serious and fatal cases. It might also reduce the infectiousness of people with it, notwithstanding the school student case cited.

      Israel has used mostly the Pfizer vaccine, with some Moderna … if they are not effective against the Delta Variant, such data will emerge soon enough.

      In relation to the US and Dr Fauci’s statement, it would be good to know the vaccine type(s) involved, and the strain(s) causing the 10,000 fatal cases.

          Are you implying SSL I have Icarus Syndrome?

          But yes – I am more than ready to concede that I tend to float a bit, and like to work on the presumption until proven badly wrong, that government officials and other highly paid boffins know what they are talking about, and do NOT have any hidden nefarious agenda(s).

          I appreciate it is mostly a minority view on here, but nevertheless it is me. Makes me much happier you see, I am old and wise enough not to worry about stuff I can’t do anything about. And I certainly know that ranting on an Internet forum has certain therapeutic qualities, but changes nothing.

          As I say – if the efficacy of Pfizer (and maybe Moderna) are shown to be dropping in Israel in the face of the Delta Variant – then that is important to know, and presumably will lead to more expensive research and trials.

          It might even lead to more restrictions and even lockdowns. But it ain’t a hoax, and the vaccines are not a de-pop campaign.

          • michael July 6, 2021 at 9:55 am #

            “government officials and other highly paid boffins” are highly paid because they are pliable and unscrupulous enough to maintain a narrative that always has an ulterior motive and is often in opposition to truth and fact.

    I’m inclined as well to see the situation in terms of free fall rather than floating. Gravity just is and there is no pause button. My preference is to reject gravity but my wish is not granted. In some ways I wonder if it would be ok to go a step further to assert that the shadow Obamastate has created a literal black hole from which nothing will escape? Of course it may not succeed but certainly it seems their wish is that nothing escapes their control and their narrative mind control fog. And I imagine they have friends in high places across this spinning rock who are more than happy to help. It would be amazing to have these hypothesis clearly and unequivocally disproven. But I won’t count on it and you may not wish to either.

    Here’s one in respect of the drought in the West:

    This spring, the Colorado River Research Group, an independent team of scientists focused on the river, labelled the climate transition in the Colorado River Basin “aridification,” meaning a transformation to a drier environment.

    The call for a move away from the word “drought” highlighted the importance of the specific language used to describe what’s going on in the Southwest: It could shift cultural norms around water use and help people internalize the need to rip out lawns, stop washing cars and refrain from building new diversions on already strapped rivers.

    As Brad Udall, a member of the research group and a water and climate researcher at Colorado State University, puts it: “Words matter.”

    Linguists have long argued over the extent to which words and language influence one’s thoughts and worldview. One commonly cited example of evidence that they do is an Indigenous Australian language that doesn’t use words for left and right.

    Its speakers orient themselves by the cardinal directions — north and south, east and west — rather than the relative terms typically used in English. Research suggests that in their thoughts and interactions with others, their conceptions of space are radically different from those who speak languages with relative spatial terms.

    Other studies have probed the ways linguistic differences may influence a wide range of attitudes and outcomes, including support for political policies; entrepreneurial gender gaps among countries; and environmental attitudes of tourists.

    But beliefs are not behaviors. Reframing our understanding of the Southwest’s climate — thinking of it as a place experiencing aridification, a dry place getting drier, rather than a place simply waiting for the next drought to end — will have major ramifications only if it changes how people actually use water.

        As I understand it, one of the guiding themes of this site, other than peak energy and social disintegration, is urban planning. But how can there be any improvement in the built environment of say, the City of Chicago, if when eager urban planners show up in the Austin neighborhood of Chi, with their blue prints, maps and mechanical drawings showing a wonderful ‘Diverse Neighborhood’, walkable, with plenty of leafy trees, monorails, ‘Sustainable’ housing units, surrounded by flower gardens, when Community Members, resentful of their presence ‘In de hood, loot the EVs the Urban Planners arrived in, set them on fire, and shoot the Urban Planners full of holes?

            When I saw it, I was shocked at how that 1960 episode almost exactly portrayed my life over 50 years later. She even looks like my ex-.

      FACTS:

      1. 1,595 shootings January-June 2020 Almost every shooter was black,
      but BLM and Chicago politicians blame police and racism.
      2. The Chicago mayor is black.
      3. The Superintendent of Police is black.
      4. The Cook County States’ Attorney is black.
      5. The Chief Judge of Cook County Circuit Courts is black.
      6. The Illinois Attorney General is black.
      7. The Chicago Fire Department Commissioner is black.
      8. The Cook County Board President is black.
      9. The State Senate Majority Leader is black.
      10. The Illinois Lieutenant Governor is black.
      11. The Illinois Secretary of State is black.
      12. The Clerk of the Circuit Court of Cook County is black.
      13. The Cook County Clerk is black.
      14. The Chicago Treasurer is black.
      15. The Chicago Police Board President is black.
      16 The Chicago Transit Authority President is black.
      17. The CEO of Chicago Public Schools is black.
      18. The Commissioner of the Department of Water Management is black.
      19. 40% of the City Council belong to the Black Caucus. The pay is
      $122,304 annually PLUS $122,000/YR each in expenses.

      Republican head count in the City Council is zero, but it’s that “damn” President Trump who is causing all the problems. The City Council consists of 50 members and 40% of them are black…..Additionally, 46 of the 50 are democrats and 4 are independents. And there is no equality…

    “And how does a financial system based on debt behave when all that is the case? I guess we’re going to find out. My guess would be a price collapse in financial instruments — abstract things represented by money — and then a collapse of money itself. ”

    I live on the main line of the western railroad not owned by Warren Buffett. You can learn a lot by watching the trains. Before the plandemic, we would typically see double decked containers heading east (full) and back west (empty). Ditto coal…full east, empty west. Traffic ground to a halt during the plandemic. No trains. Now it’s a hot mess. Whereas before the plandemic, most trains had four engines in front and one bringing up the rear, now most have 1 engine. There are also trains stopped along the mainline for hours at a time. All of which points to a lack of rolling stock and traffic jams, because all this free money has pulled the next ten years production forward. We’re about to fall off of a cliff, both financially and from a consumption perspective. Most people simply have no room to store all the crap they’re buying.

    “What will it take to end their reign of terror? ”

    Ring fence ALL of their data centers, cut the power and deny them access to the internet. Drag them out of the C-Suites and put them on trial.

    The time to do all that has past. We knew from the moment Trump was elected, the first time, that the coup was in progress. We knew from the moment Flynn was arrested that the DOJ was compromised. We’ve known for many years that the left was pushing a socialist / communist agenda. And we’ve known since Hunter Biden’s lap top became public that Joe Biden is literally a Manchurian candidate via blackmail, and that the intelligence alphabet agencies are complicit.

    Every piece of hysterical criticism the left has spewed these past 6 years at the Trump administration is actually true of the Biden regime. Can anyone deny that an authoritarian and nationalistic left-wing system of government and social organization isn’t operating freely in our country? This is the definition of fascism, word-for-word from google, EXCEPT I substituted ‘left’ for ‘right.’ Big Technology and Big Government. Antifa is nothing more than a group of useful idiots. Can anyone deny that this government wasn’t ushered in by the efforts of these big tech companies and their useful idiots?

    We the people did not act when the time was right. We the people instead have been pushed back on our heels, by a well coordinated, and determined effort to exploit the very morality they seek to destroy. Just the language of the left should have been enough for most to catch on to their plans. Whenever they spoke, they only spoke to their echo-chamber. Whenever they spoke of unity, they only were referring to themselves. The rest of us were never even considered, except to be eliminated.

    The egregious campaign of misinformation surrounding the Covid pandemic, and world wide coordinated lockdown, and subsequent wildly, irresponsible development of the mRNA kill shot leads me to say that the rogue deep state and NOT China released that germ. Metaphorically, China caught grenade and threw it back. That’s why they ripped up the roads to the interior and allowed infected people to leave China.

    Trump was actually the perfect patsy. Arrogant and confident beyond his means, this rogue release was done on his watch. Obama ended GOF research in the US to proffer plausible deniability because THAT op was in play even before the election, and would have been carried out even if Hillary won. Trump was a fly in the ointment.

    Evil is busy, while we argue nonsense about virology, racism, sexual deviance and celebrity opinions.

    But, really isn’t this how it’s supposed to go? Christians believe in the apocalypse and Muslims believe in the apocalypse (different chronology). By these sacred narratives, man will turn away from God, from all God’s moral prohibitions and admonishments and will eventually be destroyed by divine will.

    The Bell Tolls for Thee. Buckle up.

    hose who refuse to be vaccinated against Covid-19 are committing a sin they will have to repent for the rest of their lives. That’s according to the Russian Orthodox Church, whose spokesman said rejecting a jab is selfish.

    Speaking to TV channel Russia 24, the head of the Russia Orthodox Church’s Department for External Church Relations, Metropolitan Hilarion, explained that his parishioners regularly repent to him for not being vaccinated. They feel guilty because they passed the virus on to someone else who eventually died, he claimed.

    “They come and say, ‘How am I supposed to live with this now?’ And it’s hard for even me to say how to live with it,” he explained. “All your life, you have to make up for the sin you committed.”

    “The sin is thinking about yourself instead of thinking about other people,” the metropolitan said. “We are responsible – each of us – not only for ourselves and not only for our loved ones, but also for all those who come into contact with us.”

    In recent months, the Church has been more vocal about its support for the government’s vaccination program. Metropolitan Hilarion has regularly spoken on TV about the need to follow the rules and take precautions to avoid infection. In June, the cleric revealed his “positive attitude” towards the government initiative to impose compulsory vaccination on those working in the service sector.

    “Of course, it is desirable to observe the principle of voluntariness in relation to vaccinations – the principle that was stated from the very beginning,” he explained. “But there is also the principle of people’s responsibility for the lives of other people.”

    Metropolitan Hilarion

    Yoho: Hilarious! The Church has said made a statement that this is just his personal pov and not the position of the Church. Pretty weak, guys. So what is the position of the Church?

    They’re seriously infiltrated and have been since the Revolution where they split into different factions. Have no doubt: many Orthodox are standing strong against the Devil and his works.

            so even the rich need to get the mark?

    Western Civilization Has Been Destroyed by Diversity

    Paul Craig Roberts
    July 6, 2021

    For decades liberal gentiles and jews have been lying to us that diversity within a single country is wonderful. Hiding behind this lie is an agenda to undermine every Western country by destroying its unity. The tool used was massive non-white immigration, supplemented in the United States with teaching blacks racial hatred of whites.

    If you think blacks have not been taught to hate whites, watch the 13 minute video included in Fred Reed’s article and listen to blacks tell you how much they hate you (https://www.unz.com/freed/blackness-fatigue-enough-is-too-much/ ). Not all blacks, of course, but the blacks who don’t hate us are “Uncle Toms.” The blacks who do hate white people tell us about in in the Black Arena Report: https://www.blackagendareport.com/freedom-rider-terrible-origins-july-4th

    Blacks learn to hate us from liberal gentiles and jews who brought America Cultural Marxism from Germany in the 1930s. Hatred of whites is institutionalized in American education—-critical race theory—-but also in entertainment such as movies, songs, and books. A new entertainment medium has emerged-—woke horror movies concerned with the rise of Trump supporters portrayed as white supremacists. In these movies white supremacists draped in the American flag wipe out black communities. https://www.rt.com/op-ed/528241-forever-purge-trump-capitol-riot/

            Thanks, Yoho. We shall see, actually.

            My eloquence was corrupted by Jack Daniels during my Hellish trek through blatantly Misandric Ontario Family Law.

            But, however, it is not over. My ex-wife and I meet a Dispute Resolution Officer (DRO) on Thursday, July 8.

            If the DRO cannot have us come to terms (i.e. Thursday is a mere formality), we will go to Court and I will, therefore, regain my Subpoena Power that was purposefully squandered by my $500/hour traiterous counsel.

            I have my ex-wife caught red-handed guilty in cahoots with her lawyer and my lawyers in fabricating “evidence” against me. “Evidence” that she cannot possibly provide on account of it never existed in the Real World ever. In fact, I have thrice proven these simple facts. TruStory

            ——-

            Ontario Family Law is not used to 1 of their extortion victims having presented to 7-figure earners in boardrooms for a couple of decades. They are not used to 1 of their extortion victims thinking outside the box with 154 analysis.

            They are used to intimidated mice. This time, they’ve a sober man not sacrificed by his own counsel. This time I will not sit alone in detention like a Grade 3 boy who “has Really done it this time!” while they decide my life’s work down the hall.

            This time they must face The Truth as I finally have uncorrupted representation.

            When I prove The Truth of what these people did to me, there will be 5 disbarments and a de-robing. Justly.

    Interesting.

    A guy in England took his first Covid shot. A few days later he felt numb below the waist. Now is paralyzed with Guillaume Barre syndrome. The immune system goes autoimmune with its nervous system.

    Interesting because it is also a side effect with the flu shot. A question on the injection form for the flu shot is if you have had Guillaume Barre.

    I wonder if any autoimmune history should be a counter indication for any vaccine?

    BTW, the reaction of the NHS to his reaction was a statement he needed his second shot.

    Nice!

    The Delta Variant, the unvaccinated, the two Americas, and other propaganda fabrications

    by Jon Rappoport

    July 5, 2021

    “There is no Delta Variant.

    Because there is nothing to vary FROM. In other words, as I’ve been proving for more than a year, SARS-CoV-2 doesn’t exist.

    But the vaccine establishment and public health officials are pumping up the Delta hoax in order to convince more people to take the highly dangerous RNA COVID vaccines (genetic treatments).

    Their narrative is a threat: in unvaccinated pockets, the Delta percolates and then breaks out, infecting many…followed by a further spread into communities of the vaccinated, where…

    It can infect even those people.

    Gibberish.

    Every covert op starts out with a goal, an objective. Then an action-plan for achieving the goal. Then, the story that will be told to make it seem as if the unfolding actions are “responses to actual events in real time.”

    The story about the Delta Variant, for example—from the beginning of the fake pandemic, tales of Variants were always part of the plan, in order to move closer to the goal of universal vaccination.

    “When we see the scale of the resistance against vaccination, we’ll give them a Variant narrative, to induce more people to take the shot.”

    “Right. We’ll say the Variant is more deadly and contagious than the original form of the virus.”

    Another current element of propaganda: “we now have two Americas; the states with high rates of vaccination and those with low rates; this divide is intolerable; we can’t allow it.”

    Why not? If millions of ignorant people insist on taking the destructive injection, and a smaller number refuse, and you have bordering states with vastly different vaccination policies and rates, then people have a choice. Live in state A or B.

    But choice is not what the establishment wants. THAT’s why they whine and moan and warn about two Americas.

    And from the beginning of the op, they knew there would be states with very different vaccination rates—and they knew they would be warning against it.

    But wait. There’s more. The propaganda describes people/areas where the vaccination rates are low as: uneducated and Republican, or “people of color.”

    All along, the planning involved special targeting of these groups. Demonizing the “uneducated Republicans,” and sympathizing with “people of color” as victims of disinformation.

    “You blacks and Hispanics, it’s not your fault you believe the vaccine is dangerous. White anti-vaxxer Devils have been telling you lies.”

    The total sum of all this propaganda? “We don’t want to, but in order to save the nation, we may have to institute mandated vaccination.”

    If you believe that you should be looking out for your own good and not allowing the government to do it, you identify with the wrong party.

    Dedicated to George, Dim, and Pete

    “I do think that women could make politics irrelevant; by a kind of spontaneous cooperative action the like of which we have never seen; which is so far from people’s ideas of state structure or viable social structure that it seems to them like total anarchy — when what it really is, is very subtle forms of interrelation that do not follow some heirarchal pattern which is fundamentally patriarchal. The opposite to patriarchy is not matriarchy but fraternity, yet I think it’s women who are going to have to break this spiral of power and find the trick of cooperation.”
    ? Germaine Greer

    Yoho: Sinead O’Connor once quoted this almost verbatum during an interview, as if she memorized it. What fatuous nonsense. In other words, men destroyed Eden, where life was gentle and kind. In fact, women shape men relentlessly, refusing to marry, breed, or even talk to any that are below her socioeconomic station.

    Is God gay? No, He’s pissed. He’s trampling down the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored. You will drink of the Wine of His Wrath.

    I used to have a friend whose thing was, “God hates man”. That’s a bit much, but it’s closer than this crap.

      That’s GreenAlba‘s problem exactly.

      She does not like that God demands obedience and, therefore, rather than obey Him (as is her mandate), she simply denies His very existence as if Reality is up to her.

      She, of course, had Best change course ASAP.

    So my Azzuri go through to the EURO 2021 finals.

    Worth noting is that they were one of the only teams to openly refuse to take the knee for the WEF/Soros BLM horseshit.

    Game goes to overtime, then to penalties. Right after Italy sinks the winning penalty, and the crowd erupts, Das Este goes straight to commercial.

    Globalist test bed Spain is out. And the McMedia throws a fit.

    LOL.

      I Really strongly dislike that about soccer.

      Why play a grueling sport for, what?, 120 minutes? to then stop and decide it all on a lame-ass skills competition?

      I get doing that in regular season with planes to catch but Big games should be played to their exhausted, valid conclusion.

      Imho.

      • Night Owl July 7, 2021 at 5:38 am #

        I can see your point, but I have always liked it.

        And TBH, after you run around the field like that for 120 minutes nearly non-stop, there likely aren’t going to be any more goals in regular play.

        Also adds another dimension and tests a team’s bench for all-around quality.

    • Hereward the Woke July 7, 2021 at 12:32 pm #

      Interesting comments, Night Owl. My team, England, are playing in the other semi tonight. I half want them to lose because they are the main proponents of taking The Knee to support a psychopathic criminal organisation. Also, the UK press, the same one pushing The Fear, has been vomit inducingly arrogant about it all. We might beat the hardy Danes, but from what I saw yesterday, the Italians have too much footballing nous to let themselves be rolled over by us. May the Least Kneelers win!

      • Night Owl July 8, 2021 at 4:45 am #

        I have nothing against England as a country, but I can’t watch the team under Southgate.

        Accordingly, I did not watch the game with Denmark, but quite a few people were saying it was rigged with shit officiating. Not surprising. This movement has been working hard to use any events of cultural significance to push propaganda.

        After the Allianz Arena incident, I stopped watching Germany, too. I am fully expecting the final to be plauged with woke officiating, but I think Italy is probably too good to go down.

    More on the hiv/aids issue

    SW : “The HIV virus is a real virus that jumped from the monkey population to humans. It interferes with a healthy immune system so rare cancers and infections the body easily fought off become lethal. We don’t hear much about it today b/c the at risk populations take preventive medication.”

    This is the state-sponsored narrative.

    Here’s how easy it is to create a false narrative that HIV causes AIDS and continue to sustain it today in spite of overwhelming counterevidence:

    Tekapos of the world think “that would be impossible to sustain…falsehood on that scale.” But it isn’t impossible. Here’s how it goes:

    1. Establish the HIV/viral cause-narrative of a condition over 50% of the sufferers of which are from a drug-active and hyper promiscuous subset of gay men (to this day)

    2. prescribe drugs for the “cause” (HIV) which themselves create in a patient (whether HIV is present or not) the main symptom of the disease, immune deficiency

    This is basically all it takes…

    Today, the primary evidence for HIV as a cause for AIDS is this (look it up): “we know HIV causes AIDS because the drugs are increasing lifespans for HIV positive patients. If HIV diagnosis treated with our drugs was false, then the “epidemic” would be getting worse.”

    Now it’s a statistics game. Why are lifespans actually increasing? Because the drug cocktail now is less toxic than 20 years ago. That’s it.

    How many recorded HIV positive individuals never take any of the drugs? Very fucking few. In the books, there is no control group and never has been.

    Many “new diagnoses” are among 1. The same old risk groups (drug users essentially)…

    Their health is already severely compromised (hence the susceptibility to the incidental retrovirus HIV).

    Or if they’re not among the risk groups (blood transfusion HIV infections for example) 99/100 take the drugs!

    Then you have a decades-long latency narrative…what can’t you explain away with that loophole?

    If your HIV viral count gets too high (because of some secondary immune weakness) “you better get on the drugs now.” 99/100 do get on them. AIDS commences.

    It seems like it would be a difficult falsehood or error…counter-evidenced hypothesis to maintain…

    But it’s not. It’s actually too easy. Some fear and an authoritative-seeming narrative and a treatment that causes the symptoms…that’s all it takes.

    Postscript…I just read 2 articles
    Article 1: “over 50% and increasing of HIV positive individuals are not receiving any treatment (and get ye to a doctor)

    Article 2: “life expectancy for HIV positive individuals has risen from 38 years in 88 to 55 years today.”

    Hello, those contradict.

    Unless avoiding doctors is also contributing to rising life-expectancy (in addition to new, less toxic drug regimens)

    • gustafson.robert.22 July 6, 2021 at 8:06 pm #

      I know there is evidence/ studies on HIV attacking immune cells. My suspicion is that HIV only “attacks” immune cells (as any virus may) when the immune system has been weakened for some other reason (drug toxicity or disease). Our medical profession is garbage at understanding immune system function at a deep causal level… see the balooning prevalence of unexplained auto-immune problems.

      If someone’s unhealthy enough, any old virus could be observed attacking immune cells.

      And perhaps HIV does pick up some tangential steam as a destructive force in an already-weakened body.

      Just because HIV can be a destructive force on immune cells in certain situations does not make it the cause of disease…just as likely a mere symptom

      • MaryQueen July 6, 2021 at 11:27 pm #

        HIV = Poppers (which Fauxi claimed were ‘safe to use’).

        Now, HIV = fallout from malnutrition and pestilence.

      • SW July 7, 2021 at 11:22 am #

        But I did see healthy, young men sicken and die from AIDS — men who would have had a normal lifespan prior to HIV infection. Oxford has begun a vaccine trial for HIV:

        https://www.rt.com/uk/528446-oxford-university-launches-hiv-vaccine-trial/

        I will look those articles up and see what they have to say. With HIV, I believe we began the slide into politicizing illness and look where we are now.

        You’re correct that the first anti-viral drugs for AIDS did damage to the patient and were pulled from the market.

        The virus also slowed considerably b/c people were made believers about safe sex and an aggressive program was begun to stop IV drug users from sharing needles.

        • gustafson.robert.22 July 7, 2021 at 1:34 pm #

          I mean, i’m not an expert. Were these men, out of curiosity…drug-free, reacreational and pharmaceutical?

          And did they take any medication for HIV or no?

          It becomes hard to get real control data…too few examples.

          There are people whose HIV never “progresses” to aids. The conventional narrative is, they have some genetic mutation. I’m skeptical of that explanation. I’m more inclined to think they just are healthier and stay healthier.

          I don’t know how bad HIV is in itself. I do know that something prevents it becoming anything chronic for very long periods of time, if ever. So does it actually “progress”? Or is HIV spread and T-Cell drop actually a symptom of some other weakness in the body? It seems certain that, at least, there are other major factors involved with “HIV progression” to AIDS other than the presence of the virus alone. Something triggers it, or some compromised environment of susceptibility must be created…some prior health condition or weakness, for the HIV to be a problem. If it is even relation to the agency of the HIV itself. I’m open to that possibility; i don’t know enough.

          I agree that safe sex and aids fear has played a role in slowing virus spread…but it really doesn’t explain the absolute confinement of new cases still today being …vast majorities…in particular risk groups only…heavy drug users, and those suffering malnutrition, aggravated by promiscuity. No safe sex campaign could have been that successful to confine it only in these particular risk groups for decades… if the cause is truly viral. It doesn’t fit at all, to a viral-rooted and caused disease.

          And so, too, i’m skeptical that any vaccine would ever effect AIDS conditions much.

          But it would make big pharma some heavy cash

          • SW July 7, 2021 at 3:19 pm #

            It probably isn’t possible to know how many were infected and the body’s immune system stopped it in its tracks. When it spread in the US it was intensively covered in the press and the gay community was a vocal, involved group so (just like covid today) it’s difficult to assess exactly how many were infected but never got sick.

            People who are malnourished and sick with underlying conditions will always be the most affected of course, but this did kill healthy young men too. HIV is only spread by intimate contact (as you probably already know) so that’s going to automatically confine it to populations that have that contact. Infected heterosexual men can spread it to women but it’s not easy for them to get it from an infected woman.

            Everything makes big pharma heavy cash and we haven’t even seen the bill on all these vaccines. Not only buying them from the companies but all the pop-up clinics, personnel to administer them and nurses to give the shots. But realistically, I don’t see how there was much choice. The public was frantic for them and I’m really worried some serious consequences await us in the future b/c they were rushed through.

    Delta Variant is so yesterday, now it is Lambda Variant
    July 6, 2021 by IWB

    The Lambda variant, which is believed to have been first detected in Peru about a year ago, is a new concern to scientists who say mutations could potentially be resistant to COVID-19 vaccines.

    The World Health Organization said the variant’s mutations could increase its transmissibility or possibly increase its resistance to “neutralizing antibodies.” The health body called Lambda, or C.37, a “variant of interest.”

          RL,

          I am not misogynestic. I love girls and women. In fact, sometimes I’ve loved women too much for my own Good.

          I am not sexist but also do understand that male and female are very different from each other. Each with a whole slew of strengths and weakenesses that, thank God, compliment each other perfectly. Together we’re top of the food chain, Baby.

          My capitals are not random at all but I understand why you’d think that.

          constant “Everyone knows that” appeals to non-authority

          Yes, I do find it an effective technique to point out common ground when we are miles apart and I have stated something that we all do know to be True. I Believe it to be persuasive in illuminating the situation. I, of course, could be Wrong.

          I have no idea what you mean by “non-authority.” CFNers?

          proselytizing drivel

          “Oh ya? Well … that’s Just, like, your opinion, man.” 1

          I tested 154 IQ in high school (early ’80s). TruStory

          I was on CFN for months before GreenAlba pissed me off and called me dumb or stupid and I saw red 1 day. I never was much for being Right but bullied so I spilt the beans. I’m not going to apologize for that. It’s a fact.

          general whining on about 9/11

          I’m not whining about That Tuesday, RL. Not at all.

          Rather, I shake my head in disBelief that otherwise seemingly intelligent people Believe that 3 skyscrapers were pulverized by 2 airplanes 1 Tuesday because their leaders told them so!

          I use That Tuesday as a litmus test. A simple binary digit tracking all people: Hip or Blanky.

          you’re unreadable.

          Ouch! Well, I thought you were pretty impressive on YouTube there Trae Crowder … or … Liberal Redneck … or … ya muppet.

          I guess that if you find me “unreadable” that I will Just have to forge ahead in documenting God’s Word fulfilled without your previously useful feedback.

          But I also point out, you trolly muppet, that you sure do seem to know my writing awfully well considering that you Believe me “unreadable.” Right?

            I can tell who’s smart by their wit, mostly. If you notice, the people who think we’re stupid probably themselves have double digit IQs.

            Yours is definitely higher than mine. Mine has been tested between 135 and 142.

            It must be difficult these days to have a high IQ.

            I also find that the people on here open to hearing other ideas outside the crap propaganda and corporate programming the establishment churns out are also the more intelligent ones.

            I found out long ago that ‘education’ doesn’t have much to do with it… intellectually curious people are that way whether they spend 4-8 years in an indoctrination institution or not.

    From Zuby:

    20 Things I’ve Learned (Or Had Confirmed) About Humanity During The ‘Pandemic:

    1/ Most people would rather be in the majority, than be right.
    2/ At least 20% of the population has strong authoritarian tendencies, which will emerge under the right conditions.
    3/ Fear of death is only rivalled by the fear of social disapproval. The latter could be stronger.
    4/ Propaganda is just as effective in the modern day as it was 100 years ago. Access to limitless information has not made the average person any wiser.
    5/ Anything and everything can and will be politicised by the media, government, and those who trust them.
    6/ Many politicians and large corporations will gladly sacrifice human lives if it is conducive to their political and financial aspirations.
    7/ Most people believe the government acts in the best interests of the people. Even many who are vocal critics of the government.
    8/ Once they have made up their mind, most people would rather to commit to being wrong, than admit they were wrong.
    9/ Humans can be trained and conditioned quickly and relatively easily to significantly alter their behaviours – for better or worse.
    10/ When sufficiently frightened, most people will not only accept authoritarianism, but demand it.
    11/ People who are dismissed as ‘conspiracy theorists’ are often well researched and simply ahead of the mainstream narrative.
    12/ Most people value safety and security more than freedom and liberty, even if said ‘safety’ is merely an illusion.
    13/ Hedonic adaptation occurs in both directions, and once inertia sets in, it is difficult to get people back to ‘normal’.
    14/ A significant % of people thoroughly enjoy being subjugated.
    15/ ‘The Science’ has evolved into a secular pseudo-religion for millions of people in the West. This religion has little to do with science itself.
    16/ Most people care more about looking like they are doing the right thing, rather than actually doing the right thing.
    17/ Politics, the media, science, and the healthcare industries are all corrupt, to varying degrees. Scientists and doctors can be bought as easily as politicians.
    18/ If you make people comfortable enough, they will not revolt. You can keep millions docile as you strip their rights, by giving them money, food, and entertainment.
    19/ Modern people are overly complacent and lack vigilance when it comes to defending their own freedoms from government overreach.
    20/ It’s easier to fool a person than to convince them that they have been fooled.
    Bonus thought:
    21/ Most people deeply struggle to understand that some people, including our ‘leaders’, CAN have malicious or perverse intentions.

        Practically, the US Gov’t cannot balance their current budget without Earth-shattering changes.

    17 walgreens in san fran closed.

    one in santa monica was looted but reopened.

    The looters that targeted Neiman Marcus had getaway cars waiting for them when they left. Which means it was an organized holdup. Not spontaneous theft, yes. race[s] of preps?

    The Biden admin? and Biden himself or a talking droid replica of Biden announced that nice, compassionate, and caring people from the government are going to start going door to door to check peoples’ vaxx status (and no doubt coerce, track and trace the unvaxxed). I remember that phrase scrawled on the church wall in one of the opening scenes of 28 Days Later “Repent the end is extremely fucking nigh”. I might be overthinking things. But is this not strange? When was the last time government employees or contractors went house to house to check on vaccinations? If one tells them they are not vaxxed then what?

    • gustafson.robert.22 July 7, 2021 at 5:52 am #

      Wow. That is just the stupidest idea the government could come up with, let alone implement…

      Dangerous, too. This ain’t 1978 anymore, no one likes strangers knocking on their door…hell, most don’t like friends knocking on their door! Especially some government schwantz who’s trying to inject your family with something they don’t want or need, while telling you how you just need to “be informed” of “the science” and that “of course it’s safe”.

      Shocking news, I know, but Joe…anyone who wanted one…already got one. You can get them at the gas station for chrissakes. It’s not like folks just haven’t noticed all this talk about vaccines and need to be educated…how smug.

      Sadly, someone will respond poorly to the intrusion and condescension, and they will blame it on the gun and make that the new story.

      Biden admin really is something. What will his legacy be? That he sucked the life out of what was left of America, without a care in the world?

      • MaryQueen July 7, 2021 at 11:23 am #

            Thanks for the link, repeated by the Boise Boomer. Fascinating, that Act of an Australian State Govt (WA) is dated 2016, so clearly not a COVID-related conspiracy against the thick ant-vaxxers.

            Aside from that, if you think Australia is a commie hell-hole, you don’t know shit about the place. At the Federal level, it must be one of the most tightly regulated countries in the modern West. For example, just try, for shits & giggles, to set up a .com.au web address. You’re given a 45 page questionnaire to complete -in uneditable .PDF – so it needs to be printed, completed manually and POSTED to the relevant authority with a hefty check attached.

We walked off the plane, got in a taxi, and took a tour of the city for several hours from a random cab driver before returning to the airport, walking onto the ramp and up the stairs of our plane parked on the tarmac not 50 yards from a local market….. Haiti was poor and black then too but not predictably dangerous.

          Another question is “where did all that money suddenly come from?” People are ridiculously buying houses worth a third what they’re paying, sight unseen with no inspections in many cases, and the money just keeps flowing. Bubble about to burst.

          But, back to the topic…the Haiti money clearly didn’t go to the Haitian people. Hell must be booked out for centuries to come.

    Oddly enough, people who think that they have been vaccinated but showed no immune response to it were most likely given a placebo. What they fail to realize is that this is still an ongoing clinical trial which requires a control group. Of course the media is indicating that this was done by mistake and they were accidentally given saline injections. Or perhaps they don’t want everyone to die at once? Only time will tell.

          Being successful in politics is just one form of intelligence.

          Current manning in DC shows that rationality, the scientific analysis process, and common sense have nothing to do with it.

          Take the logic of immigration. The number one oncoming problem is the cheapening of labor and the inability of impoverished folks to support themselves. The Deep State solution? Bring in millions of dirt poor immigrants to cheapen rates even more.

          Another, the economy is depressed by a disease. So turn on the money machine and go further in debt. More money, no growth gives inflation. Now bring in those millions of immigrants, then after everything inflates, tax the hell out of all the people where the real money is being created.

          I disagree with you both. Not smart at all, politically astute but dumb as posts about reality.

          That is what the series point was.

            It’s an agenda John. This has been going on for many decades. Destroying the entire concept of sovereignty as nations, states, communities, families and individuals. Everything is rational and planned. Many of the politicians are dummies, but they’re not in office to fix anything. Many of them have a perfect grasp on reality, it just isn’t aligned with what most humans think is reality. If the goal is to keep the USA as a strong state, they would be making the wrong choices. But if the goal is to destroy the country and merge it into a regional bloc and then into a global bloc, they are doing a darn good job.

    I’m not a scientist. I am, however, a critical and analytical thinker. The question for me as soon as I read about the way these mRNA coronavirus “vaccines” work was this: when does the body know to stop making the spike protein that the genes are being instructed to produce?

    From what I have read, there is no clear answer to this. Furthermore, I have actually directly asked vaxx-supporting American doctors this question – two of them, in fact. Neither was able to answer – both said they would get back to me and never did.

    The basic answer is that mRNA has a half-life of roughly two weeks, which means that the body will flush itself of the synthetic mRNA and thus stop producing the spike protein in that timeframe. Assuming that is the way things work – and once again, no one seems to be clear on that – your body is still producing this spike protein for two weeks, which is something very bizarre, and very different than simply “creating an immune response.”

    The most staggering thing about all of this is that none of it is talked about, and in fact, the all-controlling and all-deciding tech companies refuse to even allow normal people to discuss it. So we simply do not have any information. The dissemination of this vaccine is the vaccine trial – they are attempting to put the entire global population into a drug trial. However, in a normal drug trial, effects are recorded. In this trial, you are not allowed to even have a conversation about the effects, and there is no attempt whatsoever by the government, media or any other institution to keep track of any of it.

    One thing that we do know is that there has been an issue of blood clots, which has contributed in large part to the supposedly insignificant and irrelevant death toll, which the VAERS system currently has at roughly 6,000. This is apparently because the cell lining of the blood vessels, like every other cell in your body, are mass producing spike proteins.

    We have no idea how many people have actually died from the vaccine. It is certainly a lot more than 6,000. Because any attempt to keep records beyond the ridiculous VAERS database has been banned by all Western institutions of power, the most reliable gauge we have is the old-fashioned anecdote: and we all know of someone in our lives who has died from the “jab.” Many of our old people were killed in the wave of funerals that took place earlier this year. But with old people they say “natural causes.” Everyone knows of someone under 60 who has died in the week after taking the first or second shot.

    In a recent interview with Joseph Mercola, Dr. Vladimir Zelenko estimated that 200,000 people have died from the vaccine. Lower estimates come out around 60,000-90,000.

    Two-hundred thousand is a big number, and seems to make sense.

    To try to put that in perspective: if all those people were named “Logan Paul,” it would take you a day and a half to say all their names.

    By any estimate at all: the coronavirus vaccine has killed more people than every other vaccine in history, combined. Taking the official data at face value and comparing it to even the low number of 60,000 vaccine deaths, for people under the age of 60, the vaccine has killed a hundred times more people than the alleged coronavirus.

    That said: all of us also know many more people – even some old people – who survived the vaccine. Whatever the real number of deaths is, it remains a fraction of the total number of people who have submitted to the injection.

    The question now is: how many years will the vaxx take off of the lifespans of the people who have undergone it?

    What will be the long-term effects on the body of having spent this two-week period with every cell in their body producing spike proteins?

    The answer, of course, is that no one has any idea. It is possible that governments or private institutions are attempting to secretly estimate how many people are dying from the vaxx. They couldn’t likely do it with very much accuracy, but maybe someone is trying. In theory, they could be monitoring certain groups of people who use various government healthcare systems, and calculating their deaths while continuing to claim publicly it is all a big coincidence.

    With the long-term effects, it is literally impossible to know, because this is a new technology which has never been used before. It seems likely that it will take decades off people’s lifespans, on average.

    There is also the question as to whether it disconnects the body from the soul.

    Yoho: Part of having a good mind is having a good imagination. If you don’t, you won’t even be able to ask the right questions. Alba though it was completely normal for the body to be turned into a spike protein factory – until the news began to reveal how deadly they were.

    Many abuse victims “fee” (or actually are) that they are floating above their bodies or witnessing the event from above.

    So two weeks? And then two more weeks with every booster? Cumulative damage over time, until something gives?

      You really should just quote a graf or two and then provide a link.

          “According to who-who? You need to stop and rethink – everything!”

          According to fair use doctrine.

          Professional standards for writers/editors:
          https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/book/ed17/part1/ch04/psec086.html

          Quoting whole works is copyright infringement. I have pointed this out before. Many websites with comments caution commenters to restrict quoted material to a few grafs and then provide a link to the original.
          This is in line with general fair use guidelines.

          Chicago Manual of Style 4.84, Overview of the legal doctrine of fair use

          “Fair use is use that is fair—simply that. Uses that differ in purpose from the original, and uses that transform the copied material by changing its context or the way it is perceived, will always be judged more leniently than those that merely parallel or parrot the original. For example, substantial quotation of the original is acceptable in the context of a critique ***but may well not be acceptable if one is simply using the first author’s words to reiterate the same argument or embellish one’s own prose.**** Use of any literary work in its entirety—a poem, an essay, ***an article from a journal***—is hardly ever acceptable. Use of less than the whole will be judged by whether the second author appears to be taking a free ride on the first author’s labor. As a general rule, one should never quote more than a few contiguous paragraphs of prose or lines of poetry at a time or let the quotations, even if scattered, begin to overshadow the quoter’s own material. Quotations or graphic reproductions should not be so substantial that they substitute for, or diminish the value of, the copyright owner’s own publication. Proportion is more important than the absolute length of a quotation: quoting five hundred words from an essay of five thousand is likely to be riskier than quoting that amount from a work of fifty thousand. But an even smaller percentage can be an infringement if it constitutes the heart of the work being quoted.”

          • Yohannon July 7, 2021 at 4:27 pm #

            Thank you. That’s pretty old stuff. We’ve moved on and we’re at war. On the Far Right, we are brothers who use each other’s stuff freely. Anglin for one, has told us explicitly we can do whatever we want with it.

            You really think it’s wrong to quote a poem that is freely available on the internet? A few living poets don’t release their stuff like that, and I wouldn’t quote them from a book either since it is against their will.

            If you get a free shirt, you can pass it on. Merry meet, merry part, merry meet again.

      One thing that we do know is that there has been an issue of blood clots, which has contributed in large part to the supposedly insignificant and irrelevant death toll, which the VAERS system currently has at roughly 6,000. This is apparently because the cell lining of the blood vessels, like every other cell in your body, are mass producing spike proteins.

      We have no idea how many people have actually died from the vaccine. It is certainly a lot more than 6,000. Because any attempt to keep records beyond the ridiculous VAERS database has been banned by all Western institutions of power, the most reliable gauge we have is the old-fashioned anecdote: and we all know of someone in our lives who has died from the “jab.” Many of our old people were killed in the wave of funerals that took place earlier this year. But with old people they say “natural causes.” Everyone knows of someone under 60 who has died in the week after taking the first or second shot.

      Nothing unique here.

      The Soviet Union in the 30s and 40s had Laboratory#1, run by a Dr Mairanovsky, which did medical experiments on gulag prisoners and POWs, whose goal seems to have been how much abuse can a human being absorb, and how little can they be fed, before they cease to be productive.

      The Germans, who took their cues from the Bolsheviks in all things brutal, followed up with Dr Mengeles and his medical experiments on prisoners at Auschwitz. Mengeles goal was a little different, his being an effort to assist the German armed forces.

      Results for the victims were the same. Dr. Fauci is experimenting on an entire nation. Results: not in yet.

        Heckler, history is a parade of monsters. Europe in the 30’s and 40’s produced an unusually large number of what we could call the scientific ghouls, justified in their eyes by epidemic ideologies.

        Epidemic in the sense of the god Dionysus’ “epidemia” frenzies, where bacchants and others would become mad and tear themselves and others to pieces with their teeth and nails.

        The Greek classical world had a fear of “contagion”, where irrational, murderous epidemia would contaminate whole regions.

        Perhaps that’s what happened in Europe during that brutal timeframe. A form of contagion, a form of rabid epidemia, in the service of who knows what unknown god or godess.

        This guy Fauci seems to have been involved in every decision re the issue of “contagion” and “epidemic” for the last few decades.

      To me, the blood clots and heart inflammation points to areas where an immune battle is already going on. Autopsies on teen age boys from car wrecks have shown “fat streaks” in the coronary arteries,

      In teen agers! These are the cholesterol sites that later become the inflammations that when they blow open become myocardial infarctions.

      If even young people have varying degrees of cholesterol infiltration in their arteries, it may possibly be a variable as the immune system grows during a vaccine or the disease itself. The ACE2 receptor is the bad guy that “attracts” the s protein and is in many areas of the body. Increased inflammation of the receptor’ areas in the arteries in areas of pre-existent cholesterol inflammation may trigger bad stuff??

      Over and over, the thing that makes Covid different from the flu is the ACE receptor and it’s ubiquitous nature in the body. The flu receptors are only in the respiratory tract. BTW, the real use of the receptor is control of blood pressure.

      Where is the increasing list of contra indications that should be forming up in response to the VAERs report? Markers are available to measure levels of inflammation in the body in a blood test. Is there any correlation of inflammation level and vaxx risk? Does anybody care?

      I wonder, if the data analysis shown so far 7 months into this vaccine’s life is any indication of the testing the CDC and FDA does, what is the point?

      • JohnAZ July 7, 2021 at 2:17 pm #

        As no real data exists at the cellular level of what s proteins do during their two week creation, everything we discuss is someone’s conjecture. Lots of theories, very little fact. We really do not even know if the vaccine is causing the deaths, or myocardial inflammation, or blood clots. Why? Because their is no control group of equal numbers of people and what their prognoses would be in comparison. Would the small amounts of adverse effects be matched by a control group?

        The entire exercise is being shot from the hip. That technique has been used many times before in medicine.

      We both believe in a power bigger, much bigger than us.

      Here is a good question.

      Does God have consciousness and runs the universe including us

      Or

      Is God a set of physical laws that runs everything?

      Or both?

      I sorta believe both, mostly because we are made in his image.

      Physical laws may be the expression of God’s personality.

      • O.G. Hawkins July 7, 2021 at 2:40 pm #

        I agree, JAZ. Both and much, much more.

        He has already written what will transpire when ~8B souls have free will. Our puny little human brains cannot comprehend how that can possibly be.

        But it be.

        He is like the guy spinning plates on Sullivan. Times infinity.

        What we think of as miracles are merely the culmination of infinitely precisely-timed natural occurances.

        • JohnAZ July 7, 2021 at 2:52 pm #

          You are right. We cannot comprehend eternity, infinity, immortality, we cannot even understand the immense SS ofbthe universe, the fact that time is a variable and approaching light speed or a black hole, time stops. When time stops, does anything exist?

          The reason Jesus could not describe God to his countrymen is because human limitation prevents understanding the cosmos.

          BTW, read something interesting?

            What if we are some distant god’s organs of perception? What if all our visions and thoughts combined form the consciousness of that superior being?

            What if we are a failed experiment, a beta version of something that will exist sometime?

            What is time? What is consciousness? What if our bad deeds will always outmatch our kind deeds? What is a bad deed, or a kind deed?

            There’s much we cannot comprehend, as you say. The divine spark in us is not in the answers we provide, for we cannot; it’s in the questions we ask. I like your humble questions, which are mine, too.

          • JohnAZ July 8, 2021 at 9:29 am #

            Anything is possible.

            A really good question for the Revelation crowd. If Jesus came tomorrow, would he be recognized? Mankind is so evil right now, I am not sure he would. He would probably be understood and revered by a percentage of the population and scorned by the rest. This time though the evil will not win.

            Another thought. God coordinates life on earth. DNA controls what life is here. God controls DNA in response to environmental conditions? DNA is the foundation of the creation of every single life on earth. It is the reversal of thermodynamics, order from disorder.

    I Keep Six Honest Serving Men

    I keep six honest serving-men
    (They taught me all I knew);
    Their names are What and Why and When
    And How and Where and Who.
    I send them over land and sea,
    I send them east and west;
    But after they have worked for me,
    I give them all a rest.

    I let them rest from nine till five,
    For I am busy then,
    As well as breakfast, lunch, and tea,
    For they are hungry men.
    But different folk have different views;
    I know a person small
    She keeps ten million serving-men,
    Who get no rest at all!
    She sends em abroad on her own affairs,
    From the second she opens her eyes
    One million Hows, Two million Wheres,
    And seven million Whys!

    Rudyard Kipling

    Let’s use our serving men. Mary Q said, Women are recognized as an oppressed group. Group? Half of the human race is an oppressed group? Recognized by Who? By the group called “Women”? Of course! By Marxists who want to use grievance to overthrow Civilization?

    Which women (my seventh serving man)? All of them? Absurd – as if Mary or Alba is more oppressed than any and all male bums and peasants on all the streets and fields on the world.

    Men do make more money – because they typically work more than women. Women take more time off for personal reasons – and of course to have children. Women will often expend tremendous energy becoming a doctor, only to leave it after a few years to stay home and have kids. Thank God that they do, but this could be managed much better without the tremendous waste of energy. How about they be encouraged to marry and have children early – and then go to medical school once all the kids are in school?

    Just one specific example. And of course nothing is sadder than career women who wanted to get married and have kids, but put it off – and then desperately try at the last minute. They were lied to by society about having lots of time.

      The age group from 20 to 35 is the primary child bearing and raising age physically.and in maturation. The stage is the productive stage, babies, businesses, great creative forces occur in this age group. The energy level is high.

      I wonder what the effect of women child bearing later in life has on the children themselves. Is career more important? Do kids get indulged materially more when moms and dads are both gone much of the time. Do the parents pay less attention to the kids in those important early years? The idiot government wants to institutionalize kids in early schools, I believe that will be a disaster, and probably already is. Why are today’s kids so infantile and why are young adults stuck in adolescence. Maturation stages never happen.

      Are stay at home moms the answer to many of today’s social problems and are available dads a requirement too.

      I say yes to both. In the meantime, angry young streets with no rationale are going to plague us. Wisdom is not genetic, it is learned through trial and error, hardship which forges character.

        He fled and was not charged. Self defense.
        A bunch of stabbings and suicide by stabbing.

        Last I read, he walked.

    I don’t often blow my own horn, but I once frequently used to invoke THE DAY OF THE HYENA, in a joking way, playing off West’s ‘Day of the Locust’, and the Cold War film ‘Day of the Jackal’, to describe dysfunction and massive deceit in the MSM; however, thinking about it, I might have been onto something. It occurs to me Heels Up Harris, soon to be POTUS, annoying laugh sounds a lot like the bark of the so called Laughing Hyena, its uncanny in its similarity.

    When Heels Up is sworn in the Day of the Hyena will truly be upon us. Biden is looking more wobbly by the day so it could be soon.

    (Then we’ll see Heels Up in head to head international confrontation with Putin, Xi Jingping and the new hard ass Iranian Supreme leader) Backed up by General ‘Critical Race Theory’ Wiley.

    Email story from Tom Woods:

    “My brother has just tested positive for Covid. The delta variant. He has been double jabbed. How on earth can Johnson go ahead with relaxing the rules on the 19th July? It’s madness.”

    This was a tweet in response to Boris Johnson’s opening up the country on July 19 with no more masking or social distancing.

    Trouble is, that same tweet was posted over and over from various accounts, verbatim, which you can see here:

    https://mailchi.mp/tomwoods/bots?e=ccdc4233f8

    Check it out. I caught the trollbots doing the same thing in response to Trump’s tweets back when he still had an account. Same message, but posted by over 100+ different accounts (may have been thousands, I stopped counting at 100).

    But no, the PTB aren’t using paid or auto-generated bots. [insert eyeroll here]. And also, the tweet makes no sense. He got the shot but now he has the so-called ‘variant’?.

    Propaganda at work, further muddying the waters. And meanwhile, regular people get kicked off of these social media networks, for simply asking questions.

    The main advantage to buying something online is to know exactly what you’re getting. You can invest the time and do the research. I need a certain kind of emergency radio. I want top quality, something that will last a long time, I want Made in USA preferably, will sometimes go for a European or Japanese manufacturer, I boycott Made in China. Not easy, that!

    I’ll save you an hour on the internet if you’re looking for a US made radio. CC Crane is the only manufacturer left. Seems like very good quality. We’ll see.

    In the course of researching the radio I want, I discovered some gems from Walter Zhao, President of Kaito Electronics, Inc. You’d think that a Government Supplier since 2003 could at least have a native English speaker to write or edit their website. You’d be wrong. Reads like google translate and it’s full of typos. Also mendacious. Very hard to find that the company, a pretty big one, is Chinese. “Kaito is specialized in distribution of the unique electronic gadgets. We create our own design and features , make them in world, with Kaito brand and other brands” is all it says, along with a big map of California with LA highlighted. OK, they have some kind of office in LA. You have to do a bit of duck duck to discover more about them.

    Enjoy a sample of Mr Zhao’s gems while you meditate on the meaning of almost no radios, a basic, useful technology, being manufactured stateside. What else are we no longer able to produce?

    “… we are proudly to be the GSA ( Government supplier since 2003, with international bids, our KA505 became the standard radio for the bid among US government, Recross and United Nations. With the dedicated efforts to help the army in the middle east, Kaito is awarded by the US army with the appreciation letter and a flag that flown in the fighter in the middle east for the patriot to the country, United States of America.”

    And they say Mr Kunstler is depressing. Shopping is depressing! That’s why I don’t do it unless absolutely necessary. Planned obsolescence, poor quality, a totalitarian behemoth behind most sales, slave labor, environmental crimes, dumping, pirating… it’s Dante’s Inferno on Amazon!

    • hmuller July 7, 2021 at 4:47 pm #

      I was looking at dehumidifiers at some store, (Home Depot or one of its clones). The clerk pointed to one and said it came with a one year warranty. I asked what does that actually mean. Do I mail it to somewhere in China for repairs? Certainly the store won’t and can’t repair it. I never got any kind of answer.

      • Rulo Deschamps July 7, 2021 at 8:28 pm #

        hmuller, and you won’t. Home Despot is the one store, besides the supermarket, that I visit often. They still have old timers there that can actually name tools and materials, and know how to use them.

        But they’re going fast. Cashiers are already mostly gone, it’s self checkout now. And the new clerks are minimum wage drones that don’t know the difference between a stirrup hoe and their girlfriend (the stirrup hoe is made in China, the girlfriend in Gainesville, FL)

          Re old guys with old knowledge:

          Absolutely, some of the old-timers at HD can be very helpful, if you can snag one.

          Ditto long-timers at local hardware stores. Interesting that even when there are women who are also long-timers at the same store, they tend not to be a source of useful advice. Younger guys don’t know much—they just go on the PR they have been handed with the products.

          I guess *on average* they just don’t have the same level of interest. Maybe because the hubby deals with house maintenance. He: my workshop. She: my kitchen.

          *Everyone* should have shop in school. But nowadays that idea is probably as dead as the dodo.

      I’ve been looking at radios with short wave functions for about 2 years, and the only one I’d consider is CC Crane, too. I just haven’t acted to buy one yet. They seem ok, and I’ve gotten a few of their catalogs.

      I’m surprised about Kaito, though. They were my 2nd choice, if I didn’t buy a Crane, but now I wont consider them. There’s no one else I’d consider.

      • Rulo Deschamps July 7, 2021 at 8:22 pm #

            Stelmos, yes, Sony. Still remember their walkman. Good radios. I buy American when I can. But Sony is not Chinese but Japanese I think, so I could end up buying one of their products if they are in fact still made in Japan and have not been outsourced to China. I just don’t like doing business with that horrible regime.

            Q, yes sir, thank you.

            There’re, phonetically, would sound like tereré in Spanish, which is an abominable infusion daily indulged in by decadent, God-less Paraguayans, who instead of drinking their mate tea piping hot like all good people (Argies and Uruguayans), drink it cold (gasp!), and worse, sometimes with an orange peel in it! (double gasp!)

            I have a good grasp of English, not my native language, as well as some other tongues in this Babylon tower. But alas, in the rush of trying to convey an idea on an ephemeral thing like an internet forum, I get carried away and the odd mistake or mis-spelling or archaism (like “thrice”, a fave of mine) slips by. Luckily some vigilant souls are there to alert me of my grammatical sins and trespasses!

            Then, of course, there’s this: “Is “there’re” a legitimate contraction for “there are”? Strictly speaking, on a grammatical level, it is correct. “There’re” is a legitimate contraction of “there are.” However, just because the rules say something is correct doesn’t mean you can actually use it. For instance, most text editors don’t recognize “there’re” and will flag it if you write it. What’s more, if you look it up in most online dictionaries, including Cambridge, Oxford, and Collins, you won’t find this word.”

    The Propaganda Factory
    The people who make television and movies are all-in on getting you vaccinated

    By Alex Berenson

    “I’m a member (barely) of the Writers Guild of America, the union that represents over 10,000 film and television writers – everyone from wealthy showrunners like J.J. Abrams to newbies getting their first job in a writers room.

    The WGA has a tight grip on Hollywood. Big studios and production companies are WGA signatories, which means the union’s members write basically everything you watch on networks, HBO, Netflix, and in theaters.

    If culture is a factory, WGA members are the line workers, sitting around conference tables to hash out the stories that help tell us who we are.

    Which is why I took note when the WGA decided to hold a “Summit” on June 29th about “Educating Audiences on COVID-19 Vaccines.” The “host committee” included top screenwriters like Vince Gilligan, the creator of Breaking Bad.

    Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent and a noted vaccine fanatic, led the discussion. Not surprisingly, the education had only one goal: “to inspire more confidence in the COVID-19 vaccines.”

    The summit was part of a larger effort from the Ad Council, which creates “public service announcements,” and a group called the “COVID Collaborative,” which is dedicated to the proposition that COVID is an ongoing threat and vaccines are the answer. The Collaborative is itself a unit of the not-at-all Orwellian-sounding “Office of American Possibilities.” Founded in April, the the OAP features a Web page thick with Newspeak and short on basic information – like, say, who is funding it.

    Nonetheless, the Collaborative and Ad Council are not short on cash for their efforts. The Ad Council has raised almost $150 million from companies like CVS and Walgreen (both of which profit from giving vaccine shots). Its COVID PSAs have been viewed 10 billion times since March – 30 views for every American.”

    This is why I stopped watching TV in 2012, and I watch very little on streaming services. Nonstop propaganda and programming.

    • Rulo Deschamps July 7, 2021 at 7:01 pm #

      Mary, you’re so right. I have recently been able to confirm the truth of what you say here by my own observations.

      I had been well over a decade that I chucked my TV for good. A few weeks ago I had to spend a night at my mother in law’s home. She and her husband have 5 TV’s total.

      Usually, my sleepy time comes after a couple beers or glasses of wine, reading a book or maybe cracking the laptop open to check out the wit and wisdom of JHK, Greer, and their commenters. But, being fanatic Christians, my hosts will have no drinking in their home. OK, their rules, fine. I don’t even drink every night. I looked for books – mine had been packed and were waiting at my new farm. Same with my computer. I looked around. No books in that house, except 2 Glen Becks (unopened, by the looks of them), and a Holy Bible. Quite common in America these days, no books in the house, eh?

      To make matters worse, by wife had left town already, as she had our dogs with her (and she knows better than to spend a night at her mum’s!). I had to stay an extra day to finish some things. So after a bland, microwaved meal (baked potatoes in the microwave? Wrapped in plastic material? WTF?), I tried conversation. It somehow veered towards religion, their main passion along shopping. They started going all out against Catholicism. I’m not very religious, but hey, that’s what I am and they know it. So OK, no more conversation. They retired into their room to watch TV, and since there’s an apparatus in the guest room too, I figured I’d numb myself with it after well over a decade not staring at one except at dentists’ waiting rooms and such.

      Friend, what a dreadful mess. Well over 400 channels – nothing to watch, really. I watched local news for a while, and saw this: some bubba type, and his wife, formerly anti vaxx, now urging everyone to get the shots. “We barely survived”. The morbidly obese couple went on and on, with nary a mention of their obvious pre-existing ill health as evidenced by the fact that they could barely perambulate due to their excess blubber – still young, too! The TV presenters had that look parents give to their rowdy children after one of their tantrums, when the unruly offspring is ashamed and swears never ever will do it again, mum! “The cost of their hospital stay, before insurance? Over $3 million. The cost of the vaccine? Free.” “What a great point, Lindsay… what a great point… in other news, former president Trump is expected to land in prison soon. The reason? Years of tax fraud. Coming up right after the break”

      Disgusting, loathsome, puerile, banal, made-for-retards. I could come up with more descriptions, but I don’t want to even think about it.

      I turned the damn thing off and read the Holy Bible for a while.

      • MaryQueen July 7, 2021 at 9:20 pm #

        Well said, friend. I would have opted for the bible as well! Much more interesting than the unbelievable shit on TV.

        Yes when one turns it off and then catches a glimpse later, it’s unbearable and shocking. If trapped like you, I tend to look for old sitcoms. Those, I can at least deal with. Then I mute the commercials.

        There is NO good new shows, and I shitcanned Netflix when the Obamas got on the board knowing what that meant.

        So the deep state decides on the programming. Isn’t that convenient? They probably have for awhile, it’s just super obvious now.

        Not subjecting myself to it.

        What do you think about sports? I am amazed that people who think they are red-pilled still worship at the altar of the biggest manipulation ever.

        • O.G. Hawkins July 8, 2021 at 1:08 am #

          Personally, I do not worship pro sport but I sure do appreciate, after years of playing & coaching hockey & football, watching the very Best compete full-tilt.

          No script.

          No fix.

          Pure athletic competition.

            Mary, OG, “watching the very Best compete full-tilt” is something I appreciate and enjoy.

            I used to play men’s football (soccer in N America, a universal language in the rest of the world) and rugby in my youth. My old country Argentina has given me many happy moments in national-team competitions in both sports, where we are ranked in the top 10 worldwide. Football especially has been good to me, 2 world cups in my lifetime (78 against Holland, 86 against Germany), Olympic titles, many Copa Americas (a fantastic Copa America final on Sat, Arg-Brazil… no TV, but I stream the radio comments)

            Of course I cheer for the US, which has gotten much better over the years in soccer, too. Rugby is a different story. Canada too has a national rugby team, but both countries are ranked, excuse me, minnows. New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, England, Ireland, Wales, France and Argentina are the rugby world powers.

            I did catch some highlights from the recent Euro Cup match between England and Germany. Those 2 goals were a joy, as was seeing the sea of happy English fans, no fear of covid, wildly celebrating in the stadium, finally. But that only lasted about 2 minutes. Then it was back to baseball and American football – not interested.

          Yo, yes, a proud Florida cracker. That’s the term for those born here, with an agricultural background. Cracker prob refers to the whips used for herding cattle back when that was FL’s main economic activity. Mostly white, but there’s black and hispanic crackers too.

          Last time I went to Mass… probably when my children were in elementary, Catholic school I guess. School events and such. At least 15 yrs ago.

          Being Catholic is in part a cultural identity, I guess. There’s also a spiritual place, a set of traditions, much wisdom and much stupidity over a 2-millenia history. I’m by no means a fervent, practising Catholic, btw. I read much Buddhism, and don’t believe in a Michelangelo-painted old bearded man God. A power, a force, a loving embrace, forgiveness, a sense of humor… a sense of letting go… a sense of helping others as the only true sense of one’s life…

          My other identity? We are not the same at 20, 40, 50… at different times in our lives we choose to highlight one part or another of who we are. At 50, I’m a father, a husband, a farmer, an American, a white person, an immigrant, I hope, I pray, a good person too, strong, philosophical. Not sure if that’s what you mean by the “other” identity.

        I was at the opthamologist today. Big HMO. After he dilated my eyes, he left the room. The screen saver on the computer featured a VERY OBESE woman, a 2 year old child and a normal sized doctor with the child. The doctor had on scrubs so appeared to be the medical professional. I thought to my self……wow….obesity is the new normal. Even on a screen at the doctor’s office. So sad.

      And yet guaranteed I would venture to say the vast majority of the teachers complaining about this potential intrusion into their privacy fully support the covid vaxx police going door to door intruding into peoples privacy. Is it the best thing since sliced bread or better? Tucker has been on a roll lately! If schools would do just what he is saying it will profoundly change the education system forever.

    America plunging into “Venezuela meets Truman Show” as the collapse and gaslighting accelerate
    By PatriotRising – July 7, 2021

    In the Truman Show film starring Jim Carrey, the lead character “Truman” realizes something is wrong with the world that has been presented to him as “reality.” He begins to see that it’s all theater, and that he’s being lied to by everyone, including family, friends and the evening news. Each time he tries to mount an escape to go beyond the borders of his contrived prison, the producers of the show concoct a new scare story to keep him controlled in a state of fear.

    Right now, we are all living in a Truman Show world, where fake authorities concoct scare stories — like the Delta variant — to keep us controlled and enslaved. Any who attempt to break out of the fake world are punished, censored, banned and even criminalized. Any who dare read comments from informed people are warned of engaging with “extremist content.” Social media is policed to enforce only the allowed, “official” narratives so that the entire human race can be kept under the thumb of the global fascists who are now literally working on a mass extermination plan to reduce the global population by billions.

    Lawlessness, homelessness, human trafficking, drug abuse and corruption now plague nearly all the blue cities in America, and to add to the insanity, the U.S. Treasury continues to borrow and distribute trillions in new debt from the Federal Reserve, causing a rapid devaluation of the fiat currency dollar, which translates into the beginning stages of hyperinflation.

    • SoftStarLight July 8, 2021 at 3:06 am #

      It makes me feel sad. And in that sense feelings do matter a whole lot you know. That is one way they attempt to keep their control. It’s not simply the use of fear. But also demoralization and depression. In a vulnerable state people become more susceptible to suggestability and are more accepting of conditions that would at other times seem impossible or undesirable. It’s how they literally stole a society and its physical wealth. The reality they indoctrinated us into is nothing more than a mass intelligence operation. And lots of people who are totally bought into it have no idea its even there. And they, the architects, engineers of all this are reading and listening in on everything. So. I should add what a stupid idea the whole “Delta” and “Lambda” “variant” names are. I mean really! Clearly having lots of “intelligence” doesn’t help, at all, with creativity in the case of our authoritarian watchers. 🙂

      A BBQ pit is stolen from lutheries whose mission was to feed upwards of 1500 people per day so they can have culturally specific bbq.

      What happened to the Lind-Bohanon neighborhood to make the place one of the 5 largest food deserts in the nation?
      Why do rural whites and native people on reservations not have people giving a damn about their food deserts? It is a 10 minute drive to the nearest grocery store from the Gethsemane Church!

      https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2021/07/07/minneapolis-church-raises-thousands-to-replace-stolen-smoker/

      Pastor Jeff Nehrbass of Gethsemane Lutheran Church told WCCO the industrial-sized smoker was used to feed dozens of people every week.
      During the unrest following George Floyd’s murder last summer, the church was feeding between 1,300 to 1,500 people every single day.

      The pastor said the church, which also operates a food shelf, has a mission to “provide food, good food, culturally-specific food to our neighbors on our blocks, to address what is one of the five largest food deserts in the country.”

    “The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself. The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offence, isn’t it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill — he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offence, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it, and so pass to genuine vindictiveness.”

      • SoftStarLight July 8, 2021 at 12:03 pm #

        Well but he did say specifically the feminist grievance industries. Not all women. The best strategy is to try not to get offended by things. My mom always told me not to react but to respond. That can be very difficult. And people can say what they want but I honestly think The Handmaid’s Tale is more of a wish than a horror for the people who go on about it quite breathlessly. Sort of like it seems that blacks enjoy trying to find racism in everything and like it and want it to exist even though they say it is so horrible. Think about it

            Yeah, I haven’t missed anything, thanks. As I stated before and will continue to say. Society today by default is totally built upon misandry. Not misogyny. But since you feel I cannot see maybe you should explain what offends you about this specific post rather than just referring to all posts. And too, at the end of the day, if he is such an outlier then why do his posts bother you so much? You do believe in free speech no? You have stated before to Tek and others that they should skip posts they don’t like to read. Maybe you should practice the same thing.

            In all the years I’ve been here, we’ve never really gone into Feminism in any depth. Now and then I would give a story or two, or yell “Feminazis” a la Rush.

            But now we delve deeper. I think my new program of giving quotes from some of the Feminist “greats” is simply a wonderful idea.

            LOL, why aren’t you taking the brilliant advice about not getting offended? Or just scrolling by? That didn’t take long.

            I disagree that the problem is misandry. Women still get the short end of the stick across the board. Not to see this is just amazing but many women don’t, which is too bad.

            Funny you didn’t catch the irony of you telling me how and what I should respond to, then whine about free speech being repressed. That’s pretty cheeky.

            Who did I censor or attempt to censor? Obviously, I don’t have that power here – so not even sure what that is supposed to mean.

            Do you know what free speech even is? Apparently not.

            Disagreeing with someone on a comments thread is not threatening their free speech (ironically, yours is the same accusation the wokie cancel culture crew make).

          • SoftStarLight July 8, 2021 at 5:09 pm #

            Thank you. My advice is brilliant and I am glad that you were honest enough to recognize that and openly state it. I really am having difficulty understanding your response but am attempting my very best. I am not offended by your original response. I am very curious about it. You seem to have established that you disapprove of what Yohannon posts. Typically when I come across someone like that I do not interact with them. Your correct. It’s not my place to tell you who you should or should not interact with. However, I just find it very curious that you would continue to do so knowing that his opinions won’t change nor will yours. So then what is the dynamic all about? I also find it curious that you have said you are very offended by what Yohannon has said and yet I am seeing sexist sentiments in your response to me. You’ll note that I never accused you of attempting to censor anyone. But it did occur to me that perhaps you don’t want him posting because you keep alleging that each post is offensive and misogynist. Yeah. Lots of women are treated badly these days. However, in the real world men are much more susceptible to grave professional and legal consequences for any potential infractions compared to women who are able to openly denigrate men without consequence. It’s the same exact concept as blacks can never be racist. So I find it to be dishonest that you act like that doesn’t exist. And don’t forget that all of the equity efforts in the workplace favor hiring and promoting women above men. But I guess that is fair reparations right? Yeah I guess in the end it wouldn’t surprise me if I had some residual lib attitudes. For the most part I am a recovering liberal when I really look at everything. And sometimes I flip flop on freedom of speech. In one sense I am sad to think that Tek was bounced. But then that other side of me says that bitch got what he deserved. So there you go.

      • beantownbill. July 8, 2021 at 12:28 pm #

        Mary, I’ve been reading the back and forth between you and Yohannon. I just want you to know I’m behind you all the way. I know we disagree on some major subjects, but those don’t have anything to do with this matter.

        I’ve been around for a long time and have learned through my own experiences that women are superior to men in a lot of ways, so disparaging them as a group is pretty inaccurate.

        Regarding Yohannon, I’d feel sorry for him if he wasn’t so hateful. Let’s see: He hates or strongly dislikes women, Jews, Blacks, Browns, Democrats, etc. (there’s more, but I don’t want to expend the mental energy trying to recall them). That’s a lot of the population. When I picture him I see black clouds of negativity emanating from him.

        What’s funny – and ironic – is after reading his last post above he is describing himself and doesn’t even realize it.

        • SoftStarLight July 8, 2021 at 12:52 pm #

            SSL, what you are talking about is that movie, right? Otherwise I have no idea what you’re talking about.

            I still stand by my opinion. This was not a movie about turning young girls into commodities. It was primarily about an immigrant family in London and how tough it was fitting in, especially for girls. The sexuality part showed young, 11 year old girls’ naivety about sex.

            I don’t support 11 year old female sex and turning them into sexual commodities. I never said I did. You must be out of your mind to think otherwise. You sound like some of the other intolerant posters here. SSL, I’ve tried many times to try to get you to practice critical thinking, but to no avail. So now I give up. I’m through trying to support you. I’ll ignore you like I do with the other idiot.

          • SoftStarLight July 8, 2021 at 2:09 pm #

            Right Bill. Talking down to someone all the time is not supporting them. And you have never really supported me but more or less ignored me anyway. So really. What’s new? And if you want to start name calling we can certainly ratchet up the conversation.

          • O.G. Hawkins July 8, 2021 at 2:22 pm #

            Here is something for you to critcally think about, Bill:

            Is it not odd that we all know exactly how many Jews that Hitler exterminated but we also all have absolutely no clue as to how many people?

            Is that not strange?

            See, you claim that you ignore the other idiot but, Really, you pretend the other idiot’s gotcha questions simply do not exist in your little imaginary world.

            Shame on you, Shill. Shame on you and may God have mercy on your soul.

        • malthuss July 8, 2021 at 2:02 pm #

          Regarding Yohannon,

          Blacks,

            I love everybody! At least potentially. It’s their actions that turn me off. Or not being in their appropriate place or position. As Arjuna snarled to Karna, Get back to your place!(he was low born). Durodhyana rushed in and knighted him, making him appropriate or sanctified, allowing him to fight Arjuna.

          Joe Biden agrees with you, Bill: “There’s nothing a man can do that a woman can’t do just as well or better.”

          Once women get the franchise, the first big thing they did was Prohibition. Good idea or Cosmic stupidity?

And of course you had nothing of substance in response to me because you know you don’t have a leg to stand on. Unbelievable. I hope others take note. I will always remember how you treated me no matter

        • MaryQueen July 8, 2021 at 4:29 pm #

          Thanks, Bill.

          I don’t mind disagreeing with people on things, but continually posting disparaging things about a particular group is obviously a way to foment division among people. I don’t see the point in that.

      • Yohannon July 8, 2021 at 3:55 pm #

        Not so! In my world, no one would have to marry. Women could own property, have careers, etc – even run for office as I have said before. But I would have the majority be guided to their greatest happiness: marriage and family. Just as today they are guided against these things, against their greatest happiness. This means early marriage and career later – but again, no one would be forced. But people are very amendable to following social norms for the most part – especially women. Why not have them be good ones, that make for happiness for them and society?

        Teachers would be trained to be on the look out for unusual girls who showed signs that they weren’t going to fit in. They’d be shown that there was a place for them even if they had no desire for these things, or perhaps, little chance of attaining them.

        I’ve read accounts of G.I’s going to war, talking about how two older women took them in and took care of them before they shipped out. There used to be a lot of couples like this – “Boston Marriages”. Lesbians? Who knows. My point is that they weren’t bitterly against America as such people typically are now – but strongly for it.

      I think the lie among black america is that they desire to join the society, when the truth is they don’t. Nothing wrong with not wanting to. But lying about it is a problem, a weakness, an offence.

      • beantownbill. July 8, 2021 at 2:09 pm #

        I agree.

        • Amman July 8, 2021 at 3:10 pm #

          IMO Joining (white society?) was not the issue. Everything was about Justice and leading an honorable life with very little hassling from the cops and media. There is a theory that whatever happens in black society sooner or later influences the white majority youth and therefore the future. So if this theory is true, and If what you say is also true, then this could be what the future view and experience of white Americans will be – sooner or later.

    • Rulo Deschamps July 8, 2021 at 7:34 pm #

      An interesting conversation sparked by a Dostoevsky quote about the man who lies to himself. Brothers Karamazov is a masterpiece, but not easy to read.

      We all lie to ourselves to some degree. Overestimate our abilities, underestimate our faults. Or viceversa, sometimes. Invent reasons to be offended, etc. The man with a level gaze that doesn’t lie to himself is indeed rare. My take is that the paragraph could describe a lot of people, or rather, a human condition, not just an ideology (“woke”). Fyodor D was, after all, trying to talk about the human condition in his work, not just particular ideologies.

      To state the obvious, 50% approx of the species does not constitute a “minority”. As with men, you’ll find good, bad, brilliant, mediocre, and everything else in that group. Machismo and feminism seem equally idiotic to me.

      Biology determines that certain skills and abilities are present mostly in one of the genders, some in the other. Many other skills and abilities can be found in both genders. Biology is under attack, so we see big controversies about female soldiers and construction workers, and male kindergarten teachers. This will pass in a WMBH, when procuring the daily caloric intake, shelter and protection correct certain misconceptions.

      In farming, men and women are about equal. Men are better when it comes to physical strength, and understanding tools and machines. Women are better in tasks that require nimble fingers like seed saving, or strong empathy like nurturing just-born livestock. That said, I’ve seen my wife work harder and longer than men 20 yrs younger, so there’s that.

      I’m grateful I’ve always had strong, loving women in my life: mother, wife, daughter, friends. There’s also been banshees and drama queens over the years, but those are forgotten. I focus on blessings, not curses.

      I agree with a comment here that said this man-woman confrontation is just another way to keep us divided. Amen to that.

      SSL says that Yoho’s comments are directed against the feminist grievance industry, and he seems to confirm that. Good enough for me. To me, Mr Y is a poster that brings good material to the forum sometimes, pointless hatred others. He states that he doesn’t hate any individual of any given race or persuasion per se, but judges on an individual basis. Again, good enough for me and I share that attitude. I’m well aware of some racial tensions and conflicts and trends, but there’s a long way from that to being a rabid nazi, so there’s that too and I take any statements about “loving all” by this particular poster with a grain of salt.

      Talking about antisemites, I wish OG would quit citing this bull about only Jewish victims of the nazi regime being acknowledged. Simply not true, as I tried to explain to him in other threads. The numbers are not set in stone, but the consensus about serious historians is around 6 million Hebrews, 5 million others, mainly non-Jew Poles, Russians, Serbs and others, murdered in cold blood. OG can start here: https://remember.org/forgotten – just one end of the thread, but there’s much written about the subject.

      Gustafson hit the nail in the head with the taboo breaking addiction. Most of us outgrow that need to shock the world constantly with outré, radical or bizarre statements; others remain enfants terribles forever.

      Good comments overall, and much to ponder in this discussion. My planned 2¢ have grown to $2 and too long, so apologies and thanks.

      • Yohannon July 8, 2021 at 8:54 pm #

        Feminism is like Semitic Power – both huge forces in our world, but forbidden to mention?

        How do you feel about Biden kneeling down to the new Israeli president?

        • Rulo Deschamps July 8, 2021 at 10:07 pm #

          Yo, I hope you include the Arabs in the Semitic conspiracy! They have the kebab market totally cornered, it has been proven.

          Did Biden really do that? I don’t follow the news cycle too closely. If true, it’s a grotesque, cringe-inducing thing, of course. Like most of what that dummy and his handlers do. Which is why I don’t follow the news cycle too closely!

          Bill, the 11 million is of course the number of those murdered in cold blood in the camps and pogroms, not those killed in battle or even bombed to oblivion. A sad, awful time in history that we all hope won’t happen again.

          FWIW, I do agree with some of OG’s takes on things. I don’t think he’s a bad apple, but can be very obsessive, sometimes a bit unhinged, when he feels he’s right and others are wrong.

          Personality disorders, addictions, demons… don’t we all deal with all that in one form or another sometimes? Probably right for you and GA to not answer to him, I’d do the same with any poster who trailed me constantly looking to pick a fight. But consider, he’s been a gentleman sometimes, apologized over overheated words, is not lacking a sense of humor… so maybe there’s hope. One wants to believe the best version of other humans is possible, just waiting to happen. Perhaps right now he’s fighting some demon, he mentioned alcohol, I know that can be a strong demon and one gets cranky and impatient in that struggle. I wish him success. Laissez faire, laissez passer.

            Thank you, Rulo, as I try my Best to be The man with a level gaze that doesn’t lie to himself.

            In that light, I find your assessment of me to be extremely accurate – the positives and the negatives.

            Jack Daniels is indeed a horrific demon. They call them “Spirits” for a reason. One can enter a fog that lasts years.

            Due to the Grace of God, I am almost 15 months without a drink.

            Due to the Grace of God, I traverse most days with nary a thought. Today was not 1 of those days, however.

            I am not anti-Semitic. In fact, I have 2 boxes of Montreal Smoked Meat from Schwartz’s Hebrew Deli coming soon. I cut it up, sprinkle Saskatchewan Steak Spice and BBQ in a cake pan. Fantastic!

            How could anybody possibly Hate a people when they run the Best delis in the World?

            See, I seek Truth. When Truth leads to criticism of Israeli policy, one gets called an anti-Semite to avoid discussion of Israel’s policies. We all know that.

            ——

            Apologies, Rulo. I never before saw an answer from you about 11,000,000 total for Hitler extermination. Thank you for that info. I am sure that everyone on CFN will be relieved that I finally have had that question answered.

            The fact remains, however, it is odd that most people on CFN (much smarter than your average bear, imho) knew of the 6,000,000 Jews but had no clue about the number of people.

            Odd unless one considers the motivation for such dogma. Dogma that must be adhered to lest the speaker … get proven Wrong? No, silly. Be silenced and sentenced to jail, of course.

            Truth need no Law to protect it so the whole matter remains very weird to me.

            Note: I’m a rare breed. I’m a Catholic that does not like dogma.

            Thank you, Rulo. The board is always Better after one of your enlightning visits.

            I do need point out that GreenAlba tried to kill me with AstraZeneca, goofed on my son taking part in this global gene-therapy experiment and Weklshed on a bet while beantowmbill. tried to curtail my Free Speech on CFN and even implored all other CFNers not to speak with me.

        Rulo, you are correct about the concentration camp figures. 11 million did die, of which 6 million were Jews. It’s always been out in the open. But I vowed to not ever reply to Hawkins, and I won’t. He loves to needle people to get under their skin. Being like that shows he has a personality disorder, IMO. Unfortunately for him, It’s extremely easy for me to ignore him. FWIW, I don’t think he’s anti-semitic. He’ll just say anything to try to get on your nerves.

    Nearly 4,000 Fully Vaccinated People in Massachusetts Test Positive for COVID-19
    BY ISABEL VAN BRUGEN June 22, 2021 Updated: June 22, 2021

    Nearly 4,000 people in Massachusetts who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 have tested positive for the disease, adding to the growing number of breakthrough cases nationwide.

    According to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, as of June 12, there were 3,791 infections among the 3.7 million fully vaccinated people in the state, or about one out of every 1,000 individuals.

    “We’re learning that many of the breakthrough infections are asymptomatic or they’re very mild and brief in duration,” said Boston University infectious diseases specialist Davidson Hamer, the Boston Herald reported. “The viral load is not very high.”

    I overheard a phone conversation between my wife and her friend Anne. Anne told of a friend who recently died of Covid and who was going to have an open casket wake. Anne was very concerned about attending this wake for fear of catching Covid. My wife screamed out “don’t be ridiculous, you can’t catch Covid from a dead person.” Anne is a Harvard grad and pretty smart so who knows. I’m agreeing with my wife on this one.

      Q, viruses don’t live long after a person dies. As long as someone isn’t touching the body, they should be ok. However, they could catch the virus from someone else in the room. If the person or persons handled the prep work on the body are present at the wake, theoretically someone could catch covid if they interact with them. Overall, the chances are slight, just not zero

      • Ricechex July 8, 2021 at 3:00 pm #

        I think they are going to mandate the vaccine very soon. Federal government now officially gives 4 hours off to take the jab, and 2 days of leave to recover from the jab.

        MSM spewing that FDA needs to approve now. Japan just cancelled fans at the Olympics. Israel re-instated masks. Constant stream from MSM that the unvaccinated are the reasons of all these new “cases” and “deaths.”

        The buildup is just like January-March 2020.

        I think they are going to lock us down again.

        I do not want to take the vax. I am very frightened to do so. I need to keep my job. I do not think I will be able to keep my job if I don’t get the vax.

        Does anyone know how to find a doctor so I can get an exemption? Does anyone know what to do?

        • beantownbill. July 8, 2021 at 3:38 pm #

          Yeah, they will probably mandate the vaxxes soon. I’ve been jabbed, but I’m against the government mandating it. Despite what you read on this blog, most likely you would be ok after taking it. The odds of you becoming seriously ill or dying are very, very small, but finite.

            For Jacob Clynick, age 13, of Zilwaukee, Michigan who died in his sleep three days after taking the shot, the shot was bad news.

            To administer an experimental shot to a 13-year old, when a search on duckduckgo for “how many children under 18 have died of COVID” shows two numbers, 271 and 238, is tragic.

            I do appreciate you being tolerant of us and opposing a mandate, thank you. I hope you will still have this attitude in a year, or two, or five.

            I have a friend, who is as kind-hearted as she is naive about politics. She also tolerates the non-vaxxed. She took the shot to slow the spread–and she is kind enough that I actually believe that’s why she did it!

            However, she made a point of waiting until she had her “affairs in order” before taking the first shot—“just in case”.

            I hope in the next 1, 2, 5, 10 years, the shot does not harm her–or you.

          If you don’t want to get jabbed, I’d suggest you find a coyote burrow, enlarge it, and move in. Get used to being cold and hungry. Hope something else doesn’t decide to move in.

          Ricechex:

          I am in a similar position. I am quite frightened of the jab, except for the chinese one that is based on actual dead virus.

          Only diff is that I am semiretired and self-employed. So I can continue to work from home.

          But all of my retirement plans—basically to travel and finally to see the world before I croak—are in the toilet.

          At least I have my health, though. Touch wood. My doc has agreed to give me a medical exemption because I do have some vascular/heart preconditions, but I have a feeling the wording might not be worth much.

          I am kind of chilling out until the fall, to see how things trend once the *natural* flu season begins.

          There is a lot up in the air. Then there are the different rules in different states.

          Bottom line: Ask your doc for a medical exemption. Say you have been having dizzy spells. Or, better, go to the doc and say you have been having dizzy spells. So that is on your record. Make something up. Then go back a month later and ask for the exemption.

          By the time this is over we will all be having “dizzy spells.”

            But, at the same time, they deserve whatever happens to them, and I have no empathy or sympathy for them.

            The only place this would not apply is for individuals who had it forced on them, and didn’t want it. The rest are the sorts of folks that enabled every tin-pot dictator and would-be tyrant in history. Many low-IQ, many scared, many creatures of the herd.

    There is certainly a lot of rancor against the whole human race on this blog. I love everybody, even a common criminal like George Floyd (he’s dead, isn’t he?), but then I’m hopelessly “woke” (whatever the hell that means). I’m sure I’ll learn if I just keep tuning in and get educated by “those in the know”.

    • Q. Shtik July 8, 2021 at 3:26 pm #

      I love everybody, even a common criminal like George Floyd – tom clark

      =========

      To say you ‘love’ everybody regardless of the character they have displayed throughout their life kind of dilutes the meaning of ‘love’.

      If I had known George Floyd well, before his recent fame, I doubt that he would have been my ‘best bud’ much less someone I loved.

      I’ll tell you something I felt really bad about as it relates to George Floyd. A month or two ago Charles M. Blow who is an Op-Ed columnist for the NYT wrote a piece about having visited the very place Floyd died and how he (Blow) felt as if he were on “hallowed ground.” Jesus H. Christ, this is beyond the pale but I try to take into account that Blow is Black.

    Like in Chicago, Minneapolis and Portland, its armed street gangs that hold the power in Haiti now. Last month almost 15,000 Haitians were displaced by street gangs i.e. their houses were burned down by opposing gangs vying for territory.

    In 2010 after the hurricane Clinton’s foundation promised at least 1300 new houses would be built with the $12 billion that was raised for the purpose. So far, 6 houses have been built. Granted, it’s hard commence construction when all the supplies, tools and hardware is looted and robbed, and the do gooders down from the states to saw wood and swing hammers get car jacked, mugged, raped and shot. UN troops, provided by the Congo, showed up to restore order, but they ended up raping local women and spreading Cholera. It was a bad scene now made worse by the president being assassinated.

    The Haitian govt claims to have killed or arrested the gang of assassins, who appear to be Haitian ex pats over from America. However, I think this could be a case of ’rounding up the usual suspects’, shooting them, and calling it a day. CASE CLOSED. But now real trouble is brewing, the kind that leads to genocide.

      Marlin, I don’t know how these poor people can take any more.

      About 20 years ago I befriended a Haitian guy who became head of the Haitian state medical insurance facility. He was a nice guy, but once he moved to Haiti, I couldn’t get through to him. It seems that telephone service was only available for a few hours daily, and not at the same time every day. Eventually we lost contact with him.

        Apparently it’s the same with Jamaica a guy I got to know pretty well on the job had been an engineer at the main power station in Kingston, he was telling me the British built it back in the day but it was falling apart due to lack of maintenance, the Marxist controlled union called a strike at the plant, my friend wouldn’t go along, and his life was threatened. He said electrical power was spotty even in the best of times. He came up to Ct and thru hard work did pretty well for himself.

        I was in an out of Jamaica quite a bit in my Navy days he said it all has changed with China taking over the economy, and armed gangs taking over the streets. His advice: don’t go to Jamaica, it’s a dangerous place. He’d go back occassionally because his mother was still there but he said the moment he stepped off the airplane he was a target.

    Hundreds Injured by COVID Vaccines Turn to GoFundMe for Help With Expenses

    People injured by COVID vaccines are asking for help on GoFundMe as the U.S. government shields vaccine makers from liability.

    High school senior Emma Burkey received the one-shot Johnson & Johnson (J&J) COVID vaccine April 1. Within two weeks she was placed in an induced coma. She underwent three brain surgeries after experiencing seizures and developing blood clots in her brain.

    When Burkey was well enough to be transferred from the hospital to a rehabilitation center, her first round of bills totaled $513,000.

    “Friends of the 18-year-old’s family turned to GoFundMe to raise money to help cover Burkey’s mounting medical costs. As of July 7, more than $59,000 had been raised.

    The family hopes most of Burkey’s medical costs will be covered by insurance — but that’s unclear, as the cost of their daughter’s medical care could run into millions of dollars.

    “Right now it feels like the national debt,” a family spokesperson said. “It’s so big you can’t get your head around it.””

            Mary, whoa, apples and oranges there. The Holocaust happened, it was awful, chapter closed. The vaccinations, we just don’t know. I personally am not taking it, but truly wish and hope no harm comes to those who took it.

            Maybe in a year you can compare both events, but certainly not now, don’t you think? It smells bad, it tastes bad, but we just don’t know at this point about how this is going to play out. We see a push towards totalitarianism, yes, and NO and others are right to point that out, but it’s a big leap to take it for proven that vaccinated peeps will drop dead like flies. Could well be the other way around, neh? We just don’t know. But my point was about how depressing it is to see some wishing death on others. Vaxxed or unvaxxed.

      Actually, JAZ, the Taliban was summoned to the ranch near Crawford, Texas in the Summer of 2001.

      There, the House of Bush demanded that the Taliban cease their poppy-field erradication program in Afghanistan. The Taliban wanted to halt all opium / heroin production on account of strict religious Beliefs while the Bushes wanted 20 more years of opium / heroin profits decimating Western society.

      The Taliban refused.

      That Tuesday.

      20 more years of opium / heroin profits decimating Western civilization.

      Americans were not so much exceptional as they were dupes financing opium / heroin security forces with unpayable debt and the lives of Good young men & women.

      Of course, with depop, the opium / heroin trade is now being shuttered.

    Turns out the unprovoked murder of the Golf Pro and two others in Kennesaw, Georgia a few days ago was committed by a 13%. This is disturbing because there seems to be a new sport in Georgia which is driving out into the suburbs and shooting white people. It’s happening in the Hartford area too but is more linked to ‘Youths” firing off shots at suburbanites if they interfere or object to having their cars stolen out of their driveways, which has happened 3 or 4 times over the past week. Nobody got hit, but one guy out for a walk was run down and killed by club members making a getaway in a stolen car.

      Ah! but in this instance we have the bliss and peace of knowing that absolutely nothing about this shooting had anything to do with race whatsoever because black people are incapable of racism. So either he was just being exuberant or he was just acting out a little bit because the country is so oppressive and racist that he felt threatened and needed to fight for his life because white supremacist so clearly run the streets. And golf courses apparently!

      It’s so dramatic and over the top. It actually seems rehearsed. Clearly there is no expectation of adult level comprehension of pretty much anything from the audience. It’s baffling and frightening that there are people who actually watch this and believe it has some weight of authority.

        You’re Right. It does look rehearsed.

        One wonders how he sleeps at night.

    OG…goddamn Canadians can’t even win a hockey game. Instead, Florida is the hockey capital of the world. Two years running, no less. But then, that’s the home of Ron DUUUUHSantis, a winner for sure. Tom Brady, eat your heart out…you’ll be back ol’ man, woncha?

      It’s not nice to take the Lord’s name in vain tom. For all we know Canadians have taken over Florida. Do you understand how many Yankees live in Florida generally lol?

      • O.G. Hawkins July 9, 2021 at 2:29 am #

        Specifically French Canadians. Quebecois. Every winter (before the Covids) Florida is over-ran with Quebecois scorched brown in tight Speedos.

          Lol of course!

      Pro hockey is pure business. The Tampa Bay Lightning may ice more Canadians than do the Montreal Canadiens while the opposite may be True for Americans. Russians, Swedes, Czechs, Fins, Slovaks.

      Putting together a championship team requires a lot of things to go Right.

      The Tampa Bay Lightning are a very Good team. Back-to-back Stanley Cups is an incredible feat.

      Montreal, on the other hand, were the 16th and final team to even qualify for the playoffs. They upset Toronto, Winnipeg & Vegas before Tampa was Just too much in the Final.

      A Canadian-based team has not won the Stanley Cup since Montreal did in 1993.

    Haiti’s President, Jovenel Moise, was helping investigators look into crimes committed against Haiti by the Clinton Foundation. Killed by a foreign crew including two Americans.

    Another coincidence or an unfortunate case of Arkancide?

      How is it that so many people looking into the Clintons managed to get themselves into nasty situations an die prematurely?
