Notice, there are two sets of hostages in this phase of what looks like an engineered US collapse: the thousands of stranded Americans who can’t get out of Afghanistan thanks to the history-rockin’ ineptitude of “Joe Biden,” Tony Blinken, and General Mark Milley, and the millions of We-the-People back home whose minds are hostage to the narratives concocted in a shadowland of sinister governance. Welcome to a week of throwdowns and showdowns, a force majeure of mind change.
A strange paralysis in the Pentagon has prevented the use of US power to clear an escape corridor to Kabul’s airport and establish order in the facility — this, after the tactically mystifying decision to abandon the US Bagram military airfield, a good twenty miles outside of festering Kabul, and surrounded by more easily-securable empty desert. Britain and France managed to get their nationals out last week, only to be rebuked by American brass for “making us look bad.” That helped, I’m sure.
And then how long can the stranded Americans even stay hidden and alive? They have to eat. Either they come out of their hidey-holes and get to some market, or they would (theoretically) have to send some Afghani servants to fetch them supplies, But, what Afghani in his right mind would want to be caught in service to the Americans by the Taliban? That quandary must have a pretty short time-horizon on it. Standing by to see how it works out….
Next in this week’s throwdown parade is the FDA’s imminent approval of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine, without any of the usual extensive trials. How does that even happen, with an efficacy rate of 39 percent maximum and a runaway train of vicious side effects ranging from brain and heart damage to infertility? The so-called mRNA “vaccines” are also implicated in the ongoing mutation of the disease, producing a cavalcade of variants. Is that, perhaps, on-purpose, to keep the pandemic going, preventing it from burning-out?
Covid-19 is an expedient device for exercising the most severe control over the daily life of Americans, and it is being used liberally once again in the “blue” cities to make ordinary business as difficult as possible even unto shut-down and ruin. FDA approval will further enable the mandatory “vaccination” of school-children, government workers, and corporate employees. About half the country still refuses to get jabbed. You are about to see them go hard-core when the FDA makes its move.
The shadow cabal behind “Joe Biden” will, accordingly, destroy what is left of public education as millions of parents withdraw their kids from the system. You will then see the rapid assembly of home-schooling networks that aggregate informally into small private academies — and, of course, the biggest losers will be the minorities who lack the cultural mojo to home-school. Well done, “Joe Biden” and the FDA! While you’re at it, why not destroy Higher Ed, too? (That sound you’ll hear is plywood getting nailed up on the windows of countless insolvent small colleges.)
The school revolt will only be one part of a greater uproar against the confabulated hysteria of Covid-19. Throwdown will lead to showdown as the alienation of We-the-People from a tyrannical rogue government bangs the crisis gong. Next up: the release of the Arizona election audit’s preliminary findings. Rumor is that they show the grossest possible, and probably criminal, mismanagement of the balloting, pointing to a conclusion that “Joe Biden” did not win that state’s election. Additional rumor has it that the ballots carried hidden, traceable serial numbers, or something like that, showing conclusively how the paper vote was rigged. Rachel Maddow’s nightmare — “They have the ballots!!!” — comes true… a wake-up for the Woked-up.
As predicted here, John Durham is back in the news. The captive news media — that is, the mainstream orgs owned by the Intel Community — put stories out last week that the RussiaGate special prosecutor has actually made some trips to the grand jury. That implies some kind of criminal prosecution. Their spin was that he had only netted a few small-fry, characters mostly outside government such as Igor Danchenko of the Brookings Institution, said to be the chief source for Christopher Steele’s nefarious “dossier.” Don’t believe it. Durham is going for the sharks and whales: Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, John Brennan, Bruce and Nellie Ohr… and, really, how can James Comey be excluded from that gang, since he was running it?
This week marks the beginning of the Deep State’s hard time. Its narratives are shredding. Its mind-control measures are slip-sliding away. Half the country has been onto their game for years, and the other half is about to feel their heads explode as a corrective reality elbows into the scene. That is, the real-and-only reality, not the one confabulated backstage for you by skulking quislings. See how you’ve been played? They have taken your country. Maybe you should start caring about that.

Scared as hell once they approve the “vax” and start turning the screws.
Why are you scared as hell? Just refuse to take their bullshit experimental drug aka “vaccine”. It starts with you. I will NOT allow myself to take that crap. I prefer freedom and choice which this country no longer has. It’s controlled and run by The Deep State. Eventually there will be civil unrest and a revolt. Fear not, it’s coming.
It’s time to bring back Nancy Reagan’s drug campaign slogan:
“JUST SAY NO!”
Exactly Rodster – and if that doesn’t work, throat-punch them.
Hahaha!
O.G. – what’s happening up there with that firebrand Polish pastor, Pawlowski? He’s a hero in my book.
Seems he’s been persecuted heavily for upholding his beliefs, but I don’t hear of anyone coming to his defense. Not a good sign. What gives?
Hey Ron.
Canadian are sheeple. We do what we’re told and line-up (in orderly single-file) for a $3 coffee.
I only ever heard of him via CFNers. There was no Cdn MSM that I saw..
Sad but True.
He is not alone. Canada also provides:

This shit’s gettin’ Real. Really Real.
Right, fear only leads to more fear. There are absolutely things to fear in life, but oppression by government is not high on the list. Remember, there is safety in numbers.
shoto – fear is a disease, THE disease. There is nothing to fear in life – nothing. Once you realize that, you are free – liberated.
“There is nothing to fear in life – nothing. Once you realize that, you are free – liberated.”
“EXACTLY”!
As one gets older you realize that you and everything else on this planet has an expiration date. In other words we eventually all face death. And as the saying goes, I’d rather “die standing up than begging on my knees”. That is NO way to live, in fear.
I’m hoping the money goes bad soon. If they can’t pay law enforcement and the military, they collapse both quickly and bigly.
As for UN troops intervening; they’ll get the welcome they deserve from every Billy Jo Bob in flyover country.
“I’m hoping the money goes bad soon.”
Eventually it will, just like it did in the Weimar Republic. It’s heading for a hyperinflation flameout. We have never seen this before where nations are literally printing digitized money that is backed by nothing but keystrokes.
It’s MMT until we flame out but at least Paul Krugman gets his MMT wish because he believes we can just print as much money as the government needs too, to pay its bills.
Typically, beggars do not live in fear. They can’t. They are in constant danger as compared to those standing on their feet.
God bless the Homeless. May they get a square meal today. Each and every one of them.
Great death scene. “Do not be afraid”.

@Rodster
Ya, “pay” its bills (i.e. banksters loot the net worth of USA clean – “picked it like a chicken bone”).
——
CFNers jumped all over me when I stated that I sniffed the stench of US$ hyperinflation mere months ago.
I stand by my prediction and it is Good to read your Weimer comparisons.
@Janos – you beat me to the punch – one of the best, deeply instructive scenes ever – just my opinion. Thanks for the link.
Ron-
Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose.
hmuller-
I expect the Deep State to invite the PLA/PLAAN/PLAAF to help with unruly US regions filled with freedom-loving people.
There is nothing to fear in life – Ron A
===========
Have to disagree with you on this, Ron.
One may fear for family members but not for their own self. I fear for my oldest son, his wife, and their two boys who are my only grandkids. Their parents don’t read this blog or anything like it. They are mostly oblivious to anti-vaxx arguments. They, and the rest of our extended family, cheered when I got my two jabs in April. I was the last to do so.
Recently my wife has been saying how badly she wished the age for children getting vaxxed would be lowered to include our 9 and 8 yo grandsons. I groaned and my eyes rolled back in my head. She has no idea of the arguments against. She seems to think there could be nothing nefarious going on especially since the Dems were able to dump Trump. I’ve given up on getting her to read Kunstler on a regular basis. She scoffs when I mention it…thinks Jim is a nutcase and so am I by extension. Same for the rest of the extended family. They won’t even entertain the possibility of… well you get my point.
To Rodster below: Actually, the phrase you are looking for is “I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees”, to which the correct response (Thanks to “Catch 22”), “I would rather live on my feet than die on my knees”. Thinking in this manner is much more healthy and should be the proper way to view the future.

@Rulo – thanks for the link. Janos also posted above.
Assuming you’ve seen the whole show. The Deer Hunter has been my all-time favorite, but Apocalypto a very close second, that I watch maybe 3 times a year now.
Just now dawned on me, the similarities: warriors, steel-hardened human bonds, uncommon courage, visceral violence and both incredible cinematography. Lots of depth in both.
@Q – Always enjoy your posts. Very flattered though by the length of your reply – might be a record. I’ve asked Admin to scrape the archives just to confirm.
Let me try to close the circle on fear. Understand that when all is said and done, your (extended) family will be fine – no need for you to fear for them.
They, in turn, need to understand that when all is said and done, you’ll be fine – no need for them to fear for you (the reason they all cheered when you got vaccinated was that they have a genuine fear for your health – their hearts’ in the right place).
At present, needlessly, the fear (limitation) remains – you for them, and they for you. Eliminate both and the family will live freely – all liberated. How?
Everyone is contagious, it’s up to each of us to decide what we want to catch. Let your grandsons watch you live your life without fear, and they’ll learn to be fearless like grandpa.
Rational fear kept us from being eaten by sabre-tooth tigers, but upon close examination, most fears are completely irrational – the cause of rampant mental illness & anxiety.
I feel your pain on the rest of your post – same boat – no rest for the weary outsiders.
Ron, yes, I see now Janos was first.
Apocalypto is my favorite film of all time. There’s Citizen Kane and Casablanca and Apocalypse Now and many others, but Apocalypto, to me, is the ultimate masterpiece.
Mayan archeology buff, history buff, here… the amount of research and vivid re-creation is a triumph of art.
Deer hunter is not bad either!
We spent some time in Belize, with intentions of moving there in 2007 – couldn’t take Dubya & Cheney & their crew any longer. Didn’t work out – story better told over a beer.
Point was, the jungles oozed Maya, in the jungles you could feel it. I’d go back in a heartbeat, but I’d be doing it single.
Rodster,
Let me tell you why it’s scary. For me, anyway…
Peaking out from behind my normalcy bias, I see a bleak picture for me and the people I love. Very bleak. We don’t need no pep talk, this train is a run-away.
Today’s announcement of FDA approval will take out those who pinned their hopes on the law through their own normalcy bias, that it would never be approved, let alone rubber stamped. (again).
You are right. The only argument is, “No, I will not take it!” That means no phony vax cards, no cleverly constructed rationales based on a previous reality can be used to assert your position.
Solzhenitsyn’s admonishment against burning in the camps is burning in my brain.
What scares me is looking into the eyes of the people I love and tearing down their normalcy bias. When they see what I see, they will panic. Their fear will be irrational and hard to control. I’m afraid of that day.
I agree with Ron and Rodster, but I did have to pass through the ‘fear portal’ first.
So you are correct. The people that haven’t done so yet will be forced to, and it is not going to be pretty.
See the movie Apocalypto, produced and directed by Mel Gibson.
The deep underlying message is that fear is a disease. Being around the fearful (know any?) is dangerous – you can catch their disease.
Be forewarned, – easily one of the most violent movies I’ve ever seen, and had trouble sleeping the first time I saw it.
Fear of one thing or another, is our limitation(s). Once you disassociate yourself from all fear(s) – you are free.
No more fear of failure, fear of success, fear of loss (friends, family, possessions, money), fear of abandonment, fear of ridicule, fear of dying, fear of loneliness, fear of anything.
When you no longer fear – you are free – simple as that.
Addendum:
We’re hard-wired for a “fight-or-flight” response. Once you get beyond fear – disassociate yourself from fear – flight is no longer an option as a reaction. Fight becomes your default, and only response.
Ron, I’m pretty sure I saw that, how weird it didn’t make as big an impression on me as it did you.
But I agree re: fear. Whenever I actively work to dispel it, I feel much freer. And yes, I am surrounded by people who are fearful (most people are). Afraid of losing their jobs, afraid of losing face, afraid of getting sick, afraid of being broke, etc.
People just don’t live for the moment any more. I’m striving to do that.
Good girl Mary, hang in there. I sense you’re still tying to catch your balance – but only in the slightest sense. The move from Cali, settling in in Boise & then maybe points beyond, if Boise gets overrun. Add the current state of affairs, and that’s a lot on one’s plate.
You’re absolutely right, live fearlessly and in the moment.
People live the majority of their lives in a time that doesn’t exist.
Much of our time regretting or living in the past – a time that no longer exists. Much of our time worrying about tomorrow & the future – a time that also doesn’t exist.
Today, this present moment is all we have, celebrate it.
BTW – really enjoy all your posts, different parts, informative, knowledgeable & entertaining.
@Ron, thanks for the encouragement and kind words.
I really enjoy your posts as well!
Yes, this past year has been insane. My most recent saving grace has been exercising (biking, swimming) and the return to reading novels. And always, gardening.
At least many of us will not be shocked as will most people. I have been waiting for this collapse for like 10 years… lol.
I thought it would happen 5 years ago, but when it didn’t, I was kinda surprised. Then when the covid thing blew up I knew immediately that was it.
Mary
A number of years ago I met a Rasta man on the beach in St. Lucia.Smoked some of his herb and talked about life. His moto was “Do=n worry, mon, be Happy.” He lived in a grass roof lean to up the beach and sold the occasional conch shell to tourists who wandered by. A hell of a lot closer to his goal than the billionaires I built yachts for in those days.
The goal of the Malignant Overlords is Control over all living things. Freedom is finding a crack in their power net .
“What scares me is looking into the eyes of the people I love and tearing down their normalcy bias. When they see what I see, they will panic.”
And yet, you warned them probably more than once and they did not listen to you. It’s on them NOT you remember that. It’s like the story of Noah, the people did not heed his repeated warnings, they derided him, but he kept warning them. Eventually he was right and he and his family lived with a clear conscience.
The problem for many is that they get their NEWS from official sources and that’s bad because it’s controlled propaganda by the Deep State.
You are correct, Rodster. These times are Biblical.
Yes. I share some things with friends. Some also get it – and it’s usually my conservative friends.
Most just refuse to let anything but mainstream sources dictate what they ‘know’.
But NY Slimes isn’t gonna save ’em when it all goes south.
Anyone who would base their intent to take the Pfizer jab on the “rubber stamped” approval of it by the FDA is oblivious of the sad history of the FDA. Many drugs “approved’ by the FDa were later withdrawn due to how dangerous they turned out to be; the link below is just a few of them.
http://www.drugsdb.com/blog/fda-approved-drugs-pulled-from-market.html
I am following the “science”.
I am part of “the control group”.
Four years from now when the jabbed are having (possibly) very adverse outcomes, “science” will need “the control group” to do comparative studies.
Pfizer and the FDA and the CDC and the WHO should be thrilled! we are all happy to stay in “the control group”!
Odd though how they want everyone jabbed? Where’s the “science” in that?!
It’s not ‘science’ anymore, it’s “the science”… and we’ll be lucky if that’s not all that’s left of science in 4 years.
@ Abbywood
Yes, I even got a “control group” t shirt- haven’t worn it yet. And I suspect they don’t want a control group as then we will be a stark example of the comparison between us and the vaxed down the road when the long-term adverse outcomes arise.
How do you say “no” when surrounded by heavily armed soldiers or “vaccine police”? Resist and you will tied-up, arrested, and taken-away to an internment camp. At the camp you will be forcibly vaccinated, or perhaps even just killed outright. Your family and friends will be interrogated and likely arrested. That’s what Communists do. Read Solzhenitsyn.
Exactly, Mike! Keep saying it.
BLM, Antifa, and the woke “movement” are all rooted in Marx, Marcuse, Angela Davis and so on. Communists every one.
Yes, Ashamed – and the only ones to stand down and man handle Antifa/BLM in the streets, the Proud Boys, are held as political prisoners, without due process, in violation of The Great Writ. No one coming to their defense.
LMAO I wonder what people would do if they didn’t have communism to blame things on, probably blame it on Mickey Mouse or Pluto or the Man In The Moon, talk about what fear will do for you that’s a perfect example of it, but after years and years of endless propaganda what can one expect,
Ask the 25 million that Stalin killed, or the unknown millions that Mao killed, or the Uhygers in China today if there are reasons to blame and fear the communists.
@D&C – Excellent. Add Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge to the list.
ALL top-down governance is evil. We’re all living in such, to one degree or another. The trick is to severely limit such regimes as quickly and often as we can; kinda like how this nation began.
Venezuela currently is enough to understand fear of both Communism and its little brother Socialism.
Marx once quipped Socialism is a communist society that has not yet reached its higher-stage
Just because nobody else has…. today!
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

US: The figures below are derived from the official US adverse events database,VAERS. Further injuries and fatalities for the US lie behindVigibase, a WHO sponsored adverse reaction website only accessible by health professionals on the payment of a fee.
Figures to 11thJune 2021
VAERS: 5,993 deaths and 1,617,975 injuries. Given that official data are known to under-represent real-world injuries, if those figures represent 10% or 1% of the real total, fatal injuries would extrapolate to 59,930 or 599,300 deaths in the US respectively.
Vigibase: 360,000 additional injuries and fatalities.

Thank you!
The hospital where I work is being instructed by N.Y.S. that you must take the vaccine if you are a hospital employee. The travling nurse companies are doing the same, the clincis, independent surgical centers, home health care aides and nurses as well. Where do you go if you need to support a family?
I have taken the vaccinee, because being old, fat, diabetic front line hospital guy it was worth the risk, a discussion I had with my doctor, who is a Pro Trump guy. I fear the hate towards those that question the vaccinee and covid narrative, legminate Medical Doctors, and Ph D biologists, virologist, and infectious disease folks who believe in vaccinees but have questions about this one. OH well, these are the last hours of my Governor Andrew, I think the future ones will be worse, I miss Jimmy Carter, my first time to vote, I voted Jimmy.
Now here is a physician who went through the early stages of dealing with patients in a hospital setting, month after month. And she always tested negative. She gets her Pfizer and BOOM she comes down with Covid.
In this article she does not even mention the tiniest possibility that it was the vaccine that triggered the illness. Cognitive dissonance, at your service. She is still a faithful believer, even as she deals with the infection.

Sorry, you seem to be new here. Please allow me to summarize events based on my understanding of them.
1. There is no ‘virus’. Dx is predicated on a flawed application of the PCR technology. The ‘virus’ was needed for …
2. The ‘vaccine’. Rather than a traditional vaccine, this ‘vaccine’ is instead a population control weapon and a source of confusion in and of itself.
3. Because there is no virus and no need for a vaccine, what stands behind all of this? A database. Insofar as one may be a fan of databases this one is very likely of the relational variety.
4. What feature makes for the strength and power of the database? Testing and identification. As far as I am aware, all test methods involve submission of body fluid samples containing genetic information.
Defeat the testing, defeat the threat.
Then we hang them all.
My long time personal physician is the most skilled diagnostician I know. His practice is based around taking in a series of medical students and exposing them to the realities of interaction with patients that he has cultivated over the years. When I moved back to his area after having worked in Canada I posed the vaccine question to him. His response was adamant– with your age and risk profile you absolutely should get vaccinated. Just suck it in and do it. boy. I don’t argue with people who have their minds made up, especially with somebody who would loose their hospital privileges if they dared to challenge the Establishment.
I did however send him a few pivotal studies about Ivermectin effectiveness from my collection.
We met for a check-up last week. He mentioned that he had COVID for a week recently in spite of being fully vaccinated. He took Ivermectin himself and gave it to his entirely family and experienced only a mild case. Still thinks that is a result of the vaccine inhibiting his infection level instead of the Ivermectin!
I just came across this video. The investigative citizen journalist claims to have a copy of the letter from the FDA. It DOES NOT give approval to the vaccine. It states the vaccine Emergency Use Authorization is continued for people above the age of 16. He shows the letter on the screen, but my vision is very poor, and I can’t read a word of it. If this is the case, we are being played. It’s bound to come out. I don’t understand how they even think it can be concealed the way people are blowing whistles all over the place. I would like to see it in it’s entirety.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/ZyhflBIrBDwk/
That’s exactly right!
The FDA approval was expected, and it means nothing to those of us who know what a farce they are, since it lacks the “science” of a real trial, that is ongoing until 2023, and it has no real supporting data or “scientific” debate and discussion. It was a closed door deal paid for by pharma, with no transparency or accountability as usual.
Not to mention so many previous drugs approved by the FDA that were later recalled due to their adverse effects and health issues.
They have a horrible track record for safety.
This approval changes nothing with the vaxes themselves.
The experimental vaxes are still experimental, and they still have all of their adverse effects.
It’s nothing more than an obvious political or legal ploy to support the unlawful mandates, which are still unlawful.
Our reply is still NO!
Justin
The Pfizer BioNtech “vaccine” is NOT approved by the FDA for the treatment of the COVID virus. The only FDA approved “vaccine” is the Pfizer patented Comirnady clone that the Pfizer lawyers submitted in an attempt to preserve the under-the-table liability exclusion agreement for the company and its officers. Comirnaty is legally distinct from the Pfizer experimental “vaccine” that is now in millions of bodies around the world.
Since Comirnaty is now fully approved by the FDA it instantly voids all the temporary ERA approvals under which all other vaccines, including the Pfizer BioNtech one. have been operating. They are all illegal, and with them all “vaccine mandates”, airline travel restrictions, health passes. and similar totalitarian restrictions that are based on them.
Want to be injected with Comirnaty so you will be legally vaccinated? Good luck since no copies exist in the supply chain or public realm!
Are you a physician or health care provider? Be aware that prescribing any of the “vaccines” previously being used under ERA’s is illegal and opens you up to malpractice and loss of your medical licensing.

Please promise not to be vaccinated.
They want you scared as hell, so don’t be. As for me, I’m rather relieved it’s all coming to a head and we can start fighting back and dispensing justice.
Same. Somehow I will survive, or not. We all die in the end, and I had 58 fairly good years. So, onward.
“We all die in the end”
That’s the way to look at it. That’s why I lived through the Covid BS as I did previous to the Covid hysteria. We all die in the end. People act like we live for 5,000 yrs. We don’t, our lives are rather short.
Ok. I see a smoker’s rationale in your discourse.
Everyone dies, let’s smoke cuz I’m not afraid of death.
Me neither.
I’m afraid of doing what it will take to survive.
It’s gruesome.
https://borderlandjournal.com/essays/#Foreverpandemic
Existential angst over a virus…..it’s like a lot of people just realized that diseases might take their life.
Talking about your over-the-top entitlement!!!!
This link is an anchor and for some reason has been missing the top by a few lines….scroll up.
“our lives are rather short”
And insignificant, in the big scheme of things, I might add!
“Ok. I see a smoker’s rationale in your discourse.”
I’m not a smoker, never have been but to think we live for 3,000 yrs is fantasy. Our life is rather short and eventually we all face death. If we hit 90 and are still lucid we would be in a very small minority.
People just need to accept we all die. You do the best you can to live life in a normal way.
Rodster
“You do the best you can to live life in a normal way.”
True. But some are already struggling.
Maybe alone.
The covid twist adds another load,
narrowing one’s options to deal with “preexisting conditions” (not medical) one is already struggling with.
At some point, why go on living?
The point I’m making is not that you are a smoker, and thus your discourse reflects that case, but rather a smoker never considers what happens between the warning and the event of their death. The period of hardship.
That hardship in our context is what I’m referring to.
Alternatively, I’m afraid of swinging too far in a dystopian direction, where I shoot the wad like it’s 1999. Devil may care, whoopie we’re all gonna die.
Normal could win when my pants are down.
Right on, Mary. I feel the same way. We have a saying in Spanish: quien te quita lo bailado. Roughly translates as “nobody can take away the dances you’ve already danced”.
Those of us with offspring, of course, have another layer of anguish and stress. But again, in the end, it boils down to this: my grandpa was 20 when he had to choose to fight the invading nazis or obey them. Many like him died. But to obey would have meant a certain death.
Incredibly, to resist the man may actually improve your chances of survival.
And more importantly, like other posters have said, there’s the dignity factor. Live free or die.
So well said, Rulo. Thank you.
I have become very brave this past 1.5 years, and I have had to work to get there.
I refuse to get the jab, and I will fight this new world order.
That much I know.
Right! Not fear…unease at the thought of what may have to be done.
So in Australia they confiscated all the guns and put everyone in lockdown.
If the people still had ways to defend themselves I think we might be seeing a different picture there.
People daring to protest are getting their asses kicked.
Exactly Abby – ditto every other country in the world, except America.
We, as the last piece of the global puzzle, remain a sticking point because we have probably ~ 150 million armed citizens with ~ 500 million weapons.
When the guns go, so does our ultimate freedom. Hopefully 2A will outlive me, but I’ve told my sons, in no uncertain terms, it must outlive them as well.
Tucker: If they fail here, their efforts in the rest of the world will collapse.
We the essential nation in this struggle.
The Truckers are calling for a Nation wide strike in 8 days “Down-under”

Re scared as hell,
Me, too.
My anxiety level is pretty far up almost all the time now.
This FDA approval is an obvious fig leaf—unrelated to actual testing standards.
Why don’t people see it?
It is like a private mint for Pfizer.
And seriously degrades the credibility of the FDA itself.
Glad that Jim is writing about this.
I hope that he is right about Durham.
Here is a story that is not behind a paywall:
https://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2021-08-13/evidence-presented-to-grand-jury-in-durhams-russia-probe
I’m not scared by the actual events.
What scares me is the fact that so many seemingly intelligent people have so easily bought into all the lies they throw out there.
It’s been brought out now, what was a known fact from the beginning, that these “vaccines” cannot prevent anyone from getting the virus.
Yet here it is today, and the entirety of the MSM and much of the medical establishment, and both political parties keep talking about these shots as if they do just that.
President Trump got booed at his latest rally when he talked about the vaccines.
The United States government has learned and taken a page from Joseph Geobbels:
“If you tell a big enough lie and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it”.
According to the Big Lie Wiki article there is no evidence that Goebbels ever said or wrote this. From memory, the article contains a quote by Hitler blaming the Jews. Voltaire never said that thing about defending to the death your right to free speech (in fact he did all he could to censor and imprison his enemies; he even tried to get Rousseau killed as a heretic in Geneva by making up things about him). Educated people in the Middle Ages did not believe the earth was flat. There are so many of these.
Here is a nice line I heard this evening. “Communism was not the result of the masses overturning the bankers. It was the result of the bankers overturning the masses.”
“I’m not scared by the actual events.
What scares me is the fact that so many seemingly intelligent people have so easily bought into all the lies they throw out there.”
Not arguing, but that is an actual event. A similar situation here, most everyone on board with the official bullshit. And even worse, feeling pretty self-righteous and “privileged” along with the underlying delusion. Civil unrest is sure to follow.
You are correct, that is an event. I think of it more as a waking nightmare, something that’s in my own head.
‘MSM’ is something that is now small enough to ‘drown in the bathwater.’ I hear people quote that CNN is down to 1M viewers. If that is true, then just stop talking about them, stop quoting them, stop mocking them. Just ignore them.
Every time somebody on a blog reports “CNN just said XYZ!” it starts a new eddy of confusion, drains off more energy from the crowd. STAY FOCUSED!
“First they ignore. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win.”
– Ghandi
Great point. Someone tell Fox – who make a living off of the MSM and Democrats, while ignoring the mass of Republicans who follow them.
“It’s been brought out now, what was a known fact from the beginning, that these “vaccines” cannot prevent anyone from getting the virus.”
You have weak reading comprehension. Nobody ever said that any vaccine is 100% effective. Anti-vaxxers = big wing flapping chickens.
My anxiety was high for months. I worked on lessening it and I’ve been pretty successful. I don’t think it’s sustainable to be at that level of stress all the time, nor is it healthy. But it is what the PTB want, and so once I figured out I was dancing to their tune that alone lessened it quite a bit. Screw them, I’m going to enjoy what’s left of my life to the fullest.
That’s the thing, it isn’t healthy, and pushing it down makes it worse.
MQ
You are right. High stress level eats away at body and mind.
Can really make one sick.
As you have mentioned, having a garden helps a lot.
Cortisol
My garden has been my salvation. So has been getting out on my bike, swimming, and my dogs. Oh and I started reading novels again. Seems social media robbed me of that for years somehow…
yes, there is a fine art to remaining unaffected by the constant zing of negative events
is it a learned grace by fire? i~m not sure, but it is precisely the state one needs to reach
i~m not sure, but it is precisely the state one needs to reach – rube
==========
The state of mind I desperately need to reach is one in which I am not annoyed out of my gourd by a person who thinks its cool to NOT begin sentences with a capital letter and to use a tilde where an apostrophe belongs. These are among my biggest concerns. Did I forget to mention periods at the end of sentences?
Mary, like Islander is saying – garden. Silence. Don’t even think about it. The thud thud of the hoe, the birds, sweat trickling down, breathe in, breathe out. Love the day, cherish the day, know it can be your last, know you’ll go on your own terms and not like cattle to the abattoir.
I’m stressed and afraid, but what gives my soul rest and fortitude is to do something good every day. Give someone some tomatoes or eggs. Be the best version of oneself, because there may not be a lot of days to accomplish that left.
The vise tightens.
For heaven’s sake Rulo – must you be such a romantic? The kicker is, I know it’s genuine. Gives me reason for pause in coming over to the farm. There’s no hiding that my current man-crush is on DeSantis, but you’re catching up fast…:)
Wish I still had a garden . . .
I have a basket full of yellow squash, zucchinis as big as my upper arm, and cucumbers. I am drinking cucumber infused water every day. I have peppers in abundance too and my tomatoes are finally fruiting.
Gardening is the best thing in the world. And dogs!
I also have an area in the back corner of my yard for the critters, with feeders and a bird bath, and some days it looks like a Disney cartoon so many animals are hanging out together. This is what makes me truly happy.
Ron, ha, I’ve been called that shameful name before. We’ve been improving on the new structure so that it will be adequate for company. My mother is dying in the old country, so I’m going through the incredibly stressful process of figuring out a way, for me, an unvaxed reject, to get my ass on a plane for 10 hrs and cheat and coax the system to let me go into her retirement home and kiss her one last time. Will be gone a few weeks in late sept, into oct. I’ll keep you posted.
Islander, never too late to do it again. A few containers, good potting soil. Rooftop beekeeping. Backyard chickens. Don’t give up.
Mary, good to take care of the critters – one of the principles of permaculture: some for me, some for you. Don’t forget human permaculture. Gift, gift, gift. Find worthy neighbors. Brighten up their day. One day that will be money in the bank so to speak. Not necessarily favor for favor. Literally, good karma.
Rulo – sorry to hear about your mother. For a reunion, all I can offer are prayers, but sometimes if sent aloft on the swirling tendrils of smoke from burning sage, they reinforce intention.
Go easier in the “incredibly stressful process”, knowing that everything unfolds exactly as it is supposed to – if not, things would be less than perfect.
Blow mom a kiss – with intention – it’ll get to her the second it leaves your lips, and she’ll know.
Funding for Durham’s probe apparently dries up the end of September. Obviously he has a time constraint.
What will be the odds of the Democrats handing him more $$$ to finish her up?
Ha!
Could be what he’s waiting for. Wants to squeeze every cent out of it.
We have to stop being scared or they win. This is what they want.
Resist and refuse to participate in their stupid game.
That plus the co-task of making or leaving something for posterity seems to be a feasible and decent creed. One above the “Têtes petites.”
Looks like the Australian truck drivers are gearing up (bad pun) for a showdown with their Gestapo overlords:

the ABSOLUTE BEST thing that can and will happen to those who care about constitutional freedoms, free and fair general elections, competent and ethical medical professional health care, forthright market price discovery in capitalist, free-market transactional business with organically, salubrious business cycles, the end of extra-judicial wars, to wit: rights and privileges bestowed in the document, signed and executed therein by those foundational cornerstones of this nation and country, itself serving as a legal foundation for freedom of movement, first amendment guarantees, concerning the one thing sustaining and supporting the tyrannical criminal movement in Washington DC, comprised of usurpers who have infiltrated every agency of govt., the thing funding and keeping them and it in their respective positions, that is, when central bank created fiat currency collapses completely in purchasing power, effectively breaking the vice grip on such power over night, the demise of the US fiat dollar and the end of the illegal practice of central bank money creation colloquially known as money printing.
A big giant fart from Afghanistan wafts through corridors of executive, legislative, media and not least the Pentagon and related. There is be no way to spin against the nose.
Our delusional resident trolls think Jo Jo Magoo did a great job – hahahahaa! Just saw Big Bill’s post on the Friday’s article, quoting some Bush/Cheney cabal member saying what a success Afghan was.
LOL!
Afghanistan was a complete success. They got 2 more decades of social-fabric destroying, extremely profitable Heroin.
Now they have their Empire-Falls moment on video for all the History books.
Everything is going exactly as planned.
With radical Sunnism soon to be armed to the teeth. Perhaps ready to help us in an attack on Iran? Or has China nixed that by now?
If you trust the Bible, Russia, Iran and many other Moslem countries attack Israel, and are crushed. That’s because of the intervention of the archangel Michael. A boastful, smooth-talking leader takes the credit, though, and heads down the road to becoming the Antichrist. China’s invasion of the Middle East comes later, after the Euphrates dries up.
Madness. Lunacy. Protestant hallucination.
Possible assessment but… horrid.
OG, spot on. TruStory 🙂
Perhaps many people knew the score in advance… take a peek.

Sorry wrong post.

(Correction: There is no way…. Ed.)
Greetings,
Nothing backs our petrodollar other than the might of our military and our ability to wield it. That said, Biden’s tranny army has been shown to be almost entirely useless and if our generals had any honor what-so-ever, they’d be carving out their guts this very moment in front of the Lincoln memorial. Of course, the only thing that will actually happen is that everyone involved will get awards and promotions.
That wont help the dollar, though, as our adversaries have now realized that they can expand their empires and economies and there is absolutely nothing our tranny army can do about it. Putting diaper changing stations and tampon dispensors in our tanks doesn’t frighten the Russians and Chinese one bit. I fully expect Taiwan and the Eastern portion of Ukraine to fall within months if not days.
The loss of respect for our military and its commander means that the US dollar is on its way out and fast. After all, China makes nearly all of what we need and if they demand to be paid in gold and silver (like Libya did) then what are we going to do about it?
Of course, the moment the dollar collapses we will have bigger fish to fry as “prison rules” take over and we see continental-wide genocide here at home thanks to CRT and the 1619 Project which has fanned the flames of racism. It certainly wont be pretty.
Over 80 percent of US dollars are help overseas by Chinese, Arabs, Asians, Europeans, Africans, you name it. So, again, no “collapse.” We can touch base in 2030 on this.
(Correction 2. …held overseas. Ed.)
If Taiwan should fall…

Tahoe – unrelated, but you left me a link a while back on Long Covid Protocol. Didn’t get a chance to thank you, nor read it. Can you repost, if not too much trouble? Thanks.
I-RECOVER under the Protocols tab
https://covid19criticalcare.com/
Thanks Tahoe, much appreciated.
I recommend getting any ideas of China attacking TAIWAN out of your list of future prospects in ASIA. One reason is that a huge number of Taiwanese Engineers work in CHINA and I am sure not a few main landers work in TAIWAN. Simply put, War is bad for business in Asia….
Also, no matter what they say, China is NOT food-independent.
The shortfall is as high as 20% in a bad year.
To avoid a second Great Famine, China has to buy food from one (or all) of the three countries that can provide it…The U.S., Canada and Brazil.
China won’t do anything that could provoke all three of these nations to cut them off…unless things get really, really bad.
Agreed. You forgot to mention that Russia too has seen huge trade in Agro-products with China. The Russians themselves are surprised.
The fact that foreigners hold so many dollars makes it more likely to collapse. When the FED’s trillion dollar a month printing habit becomes known and felt, foreigners won’t want to hold dollars long term. They’ll spend them on anything they can – which at that point will be resources and assets within the USA. Hence hyperinflation in the USA and rejection of the dollar as an international reserve currency throughout the world.
If you had truckloads of North Korean won, what would you do with them? No one in the world wants the NK won except North Koreans. You would have to go to North Korea and see what you could buy with that cash, e.g. lots of kimchee.
They know everything and what is more dollar debt or T-bills function overseas like cash and will do so until a replacement system emerges…. and that will take a while.
What you just said doesn’t matter one bit. Not a bit.
It doesn’t matter how much rotting fish (dollars) these countries have because it is still rotting fish. May as well grind it up into fertilizer today because it won’t be any less rotten tomorrow now will it?
Wishful thinking. Bankers can agree to split the dollar and create an international dollar and a domestic dollar where one international dollar is worth so many domestic dollars. But this is not the agenda.
Anyway, you sound like you have no cash since you compare T-bills to what? To rotten fish. Case dismissed.
I am hoping that CRT, the 1619 project and the trans agenda go out the window when everything starts collapsing.
Societal & cultural crap like that is a luxury, and so it will be tossed into the dumpster. At least I hope so.
Because I am growing increasingly alarmed, I went to the bank yesterday to get some cash. I think maybe physical dollars and coin will still be accepted in a banking crisis, at least for a while, and that’s where we are obviously heading. I don’t trust bitcoin to be there under such circumstance. The walk-in door was locked. The drive up refused my card, as if I didn’t have any funds. The cash machine at Sam’s Club has been removed. I finally found one at a convenience store, but could only get $200 at a time out of it. I don’t get out much, so I don’t know how long this has been going on, but I’m pretty sure our money is on its last legs and the coral is closing.
Accepted “for a while”. Eventually “for a while” expires.
Energy is needed for bitcoin. Semiconductors are needed. They have a short shelf life, something like 2 years given the heat generated. I don’t have faith in bitcoin.
Some sort of estimate (no reference to offer) is most households have only a few hundred $$ in cash on hand. It is fiat currency.
This leads back to PM, which have stood the time test, and barter, which has a similarly long history.
I do find it interesting you had such difficulty. It is not unexpected, just seems to be a little early in the game.
yes, last legs
I’d rather use the worthless fiat first as long as it is accepted. It might actually increase in value for a while, when the digital stuff disappears with a great sucking sound and a cry heard round the world. There’s so little of it, comparatively. The other, if you can hold it, is a get out of jail free card, and the basis for generational wealth–not to be parted with lightly. Meanwhile, I’m making hard tack (you can live on that stuff alone for two months though you won’t be happy) and pemmican. I bought a big bag of ascorbic acid to keep away the scurvy.
Judging by what has happened elsewhere, in a crisis THEY will limit your access to withdraw your own cash from the bank. And your bank may not even have enough cash to give everyone their daily quota.
I expect federal reserve notes will work in a crisis for weeks, maybe months, because that’s what people know. And most will expect a return to the old normalcy.
Access to crypto currencies may be spotty or totally cut off; and if you keep it on an exchange, kiss it goodbye.
Old US silver coinage (1964 and earlier) will become the best medium of exchange. Franklin Halves and Mercury Dimes are my favorites because every single one is 90% silver. With some other coins the date must be checked with a magnifying glass, i.e. Roosevelt dimes, Washington quarters. Carefully checked because some wise-ass might try to turn a 1968 base metal quarter into a 1963 silver one by with a small file.
Draupnir, before you go on the “all hard tack-pemmican diet”, you do know there’s canned food with a 20 to 30 year shelf life. I’d encourage vitamin and mineral supplements, & something for constipation. Some people advocate sprouting plants in window sill boxes, because we crave fresh vegetable matter.
If I have to eat that stuff I will be scraping the bottom of the barrel or on the run. Did you know that they have pieces of hard tack left over from the civil war on display in some museums?
I currently own 17 steers, 11 cows and one bull. Also 30 pigs.
I’ll keep right on eating steak and pork chops.
If one is concerned about the sorts of scenarios Mr. Kunstler writes about, one should stop with “canned this” and “preserved that” and save your money for good quality, arable land.
We are headed for a nasty fall, and it won’t be over in 2 months or 10 months or 50 years.
I highly recommend learning hydroponics, growing some greens indoors, if you have the means to do so. Grow lights are not expensive, neither is seed (at least now).
One notion that I have entertained relating to “items of value” to use for barter when Weimar II rolls around and “money” becomes a historical curiosity is to have a stash of long-life antibiotics and other simple medications (iodine, bandages, local anesthetic, whatever).
Maybe specialized stuff, if you can score it easily and legally: insulin comes to mind. Painkillers, tranks.
I would imagine that in the case of a general meltdown it would not take long for the pharmaceutical manufacturing complex to run into difficulties and shortages. Demand will not taper off, however; in countries doomed to civil war hospitals are customarily prime targets for raids. Pharmacies too I imagine.
Just a thought. Here in Indonesia you can buy pretty much anything non-psychoactive right over the counter. I have a foot infection and walked into a local pharmacy the other night to purchase an Amoxicillin variant. Bingo, Ka-Ching, right over the counter, cheap and no questions asked.
(That kind of “freedom” has of course led to the buildup of fearsome antibiotic resistance among the population at large, who are in the habit of gobbling the capsules like candy, but that’s show business.)
Good to know. Most that I know get cash at the supermarket checkout machines, so little do they carry. The primary use being to pay illegals/tax avoiders to do your lawn work under the table. And of course ass-raping you in the process.

Interesting take on the future of education and the rise of homeschools. After other “careers”, I got a teaching certificate. During student teaching, I had to observe other teachers. While there are many, many excellent teachers out there, I was shocked to see that even when an “outsider” was sitting in their classrooms, Two out of three teachers achieved almost NOTHING during the hour I observed. One (ironically, a teacher I had in school) literally read the paper during the entire class with me sitting the back taking notes. Can’t say I entirely blame him….at the time, many years ago, things were already going south and I can’t imagine his clientele were interested in biology.
Even in good schools/classrooms there is much wasted time but let’s face it how many homeschools will do better? How many parents are able to provide adequate instruction in science or math beyond fourth grade? There is a skill to teaching and even folks with the knowledge can’t always explain it in an understandable way.
I do believe you’re right that there will be new models of home schooling and the network idea will fill in some holes like the science/math thing.
There are no easy answers but it’s clear to me that we’ve got to do something to improve education for all or we’re going to keep losing ground on almost every front. Democracy will thrive only among an enlightened populace.
One of the best ways to learn, if not the best, is to teach.
We MUST stop thinking it’s more important to bring along ALL STUDENTS than to cultivate the best students.
Hardrock, as a homeschooler, parents can be very resourceful. If you group together, there are always parents who can cover the maths, others who can do the science, and yet others who can offer other stuff. And with the internet, the sky’s the limit. I was hopeless at math at school but learnt by teaching my own kids, using off the internet programs. All you have to do is stay one step ahead of them and pretend you know what you’re doing. Teachers are vastly over-rated, and if they are indoctrinating your kids too, not worth the effort.
I applaud your efforts, hang in there.
After 11 years in the classroom and a total of 34 in k-12, I agree with everything you say. But make no mistake, (for those considering homeschooling) it’s not easy and you must be very dedicated. I hated Sunday nights when I was in the classroom because I had three or four preps (classes) and each is like writing a script for a week-long play
In every school/district, parents know who are the good teachers and amazingly, the educated and knowledgeable parents end up with their kids in the best classrooms. The others get what’s left.
As for indoctrination…..I served in rural school districts at a time when that wasn’t an issue. If you live in the right places, the teachers (who are often working for the largest employer in the county) are folks who grew up there and want to stay so there’s no other employment options. These are good people with good values.
One anecdote to show the time and the place. I was in my late 20’s when I started teaching (40 years ago) and my principal at the high school was a combat veteran of Vietnam. I had parking lot duty and one day in the fall, I see one of my students carrying his deer rifle around in the parking lot. I told him to put it back in the car (looking at you Russell) and informed the principal who just waved a hand and said, “tell him not to do it again.”
Tere are lots of materials such as lesson plans etc. for homeschooling parents.
Which helps. Doesn’t lessen the basic challenge.
But when one looks at the levels of literacy in, say, 19C USA, when many were taught in one-room schools, it does make one think.
Of course STEM is another matter. But if you can teach basic literacy, the smart and motivated ones can then teach themselves a lot.
Teach basic logic as early as possible. Refresher courses as needed. Teach them to read, write, and THINK!
@Ashamed – yes, exactly – not what to think, but how to think.
Teaching Democracy will not improve anything.
What will improve anything?
The Truth against the world [ system ].
As a parent of a teenager we have made the decision to move to homeschooling. Our only option is to send him to a school where he will have to wear a mask all day, sit 3 feet from others and follow all sorts of hand sanitizing protocols amongst other bullshit. In addition since we are in Oregon we now have to contend with the fact that our genius governor has tossed out the graduation requirements as they are racist.
What is a parent supposed to do? Are we to send our son to get “educated” by these idiots? Are we to look the other way as they support non-science like mask-wearing and push a vaccine as the solution to their madness? We also have every reason to believe that as soon as there is one sniffle in a school they will shut the whole thing down and then what situation will our son be in?
We believe that we will not be alone in this move and as Mr. Kunstler points out there will likely be banding together of like-minded folks. And by-the-way their are countless tutors in math and “science” that can teach what we aren’t comfortable with. Lectures on YouTube usually outdo the lame educators the PPS hires so we feel we’ll be fine. The system is corrupt and we don’t want to participate. Simple.
Our son understands this move but fears a lack of social interaction so we will deal with that by including outside skills classes he can take to fill that gap. In addition we will provide ample opportunity for his friends to join us in our activities and trips. We also have agreed to let him work one full weekday at his grandfather’s business where he will work alongside him and his uncle doing the odd-jobs they need done. The experience of working for a small manufacturer provides window on the work world many don’t get at his age.
Its OUR job as parents to raise him to be the best he can be. WE are the ones responsible which is why we doing what is best for him. NO ONE – no teacher, administrator, politician or allopathic heathcare whore – cares more than us which is what every parent needs to burn into their brain.
We are in a battle and they want our son. Homeschooling is our way of keeping *them* and their tentacles away from him. Every parent should be following our lead and if they aren’t then frankly in my opinion they are participating in the abuse and brainwashing of their children.
It seems to me the brainwashing really ramped up in correlation with Randi Weingarten’s rise to power.
She appears to be actively trying to destroy our American system of public education, a system that, for all its flaws, was better than what the rest of the world had.
Not to say she’s doing it on her own, Barack Obama has certainly had a hand in it.
In any case, children or learning are not any concern of hers, she even went so far as to LIE about the existence of a new study on mask efficacy, just so she could hold America’s kids hostage to Big Pharma.
She should not be allowed to be in any position where children are involved.
Should we blame teachers for electing her?
Do you think a commie union doesn’t know how to rig it’s own elections?
John Gatto proved every which way but loose that ‘our American system’ of public education was really just a local adaptation of a system designed in the 18th century in Prussia to crank out masses of loyal and unthinking soldiers back in a time when you stood in long lines and blasted away at each other with shotguns at near point blank range. It was brought up to date and pushed through by all the usual do-gooders who were just eager ‘to help’. The upgrade was to churn out obedient widget tighteners who would not rebel against the JP Morgans and Andrew Carnegies of the gilded age, an era in which striking miners were dispersed with Maxim guns. So the education system is really european and was never about education. More about indoctrination and training to rote tasks. It’s no longer fit to purpose in an age when robots do all the industrial labor. Why should the Great Resetters continue to pay for something they no longer need? Better to run it into the ground and blame the victim as usual.
D from OR – I applaud you.
Our boy starts kindergarten a year from now, and we’ve been worrying about school choices…private ain’t cheap and all the godawful unnecessary crap at the public schools is a firm no for us.
So we’re 99% decided on homeschooling now, and tbh, quite looking forward to it. We pretty much do that anyway most days, we’ll just need to follow a curriculum and schedule. We’ve already found several local homeschool organizations/neighborhood groups that gather for social activities…playtime in parks, sports, nature hikes, music classes, etc…things that get homeschool kids together and help them keep learning how to play and interact as they grow.
Screw public school. I went to public school and it was just fine. But that was in the 80’s and early 90’s. The buildings may look the same now, but what goes on inside is increasingly unrecognizable in comparison.
The way I see it (at the moment) is if we can just lay the foundation for his education and values systems at home, give him clear eyes to see the world we know as he matures, then if he wants to hop over to public school for high school or whatever…fine. At least he will be based in some form of real thinking as he ventures out to see how “all the other kids” go to school.
But I don’t want them getting to him at age five.
The NEA continue to prove themselves ever more unworthy of that right…and they are getting more dangerous each year, it seems..
They aren’t even concerned with the children’s physical well-being anymore.
How can anybody entrust their children to any institution where someone as horrible as Randi Weingarten has any influence?
She doesn’t care about kids. She doesn’t care about what the parents want.
She doesn’t care about education.
I read that she’s a lesbo who’s pushing Critical Race Theory/Critical Pedagogy.Right out of central casting for evil lefty activist and general democratic party hack.
Tip of the hat to you MrMangoOnMyShoulder for putting your kid first. Especially at the “sponge” age. You can handle it.
I should have mentioned that our son was at a Waldorf charter school until 8th grade. His high school experience at the public school was a waste as only two terms were in person. His entire sophomore year was online and worthless.
We will pick up where he should be according to Waldorf. This way we can ensure that he acquires the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed instead of being educated to work against himself. That’s what the public schools are doing.
This year he will be expected to master a skill he does not know now (he has chosen welding) as well learning and acquiring competence in a new sport. From the start of this nonsense we have given him building projects to get him away from the screen and work with his hands. Using the Waldorf style he has been expected to figure a lot out himself. He’s built the chicken coop, turned his kid fort into a garden shed, built new raised beds and next will be a a shed for storing wood (we are in the city by-the-way).
There will be other benchmarks of course and as we shape this together the more excited he gets which is how it should be.
It is more than brainwashing. I understand your concerns, we are facing many of them already here in Germany with our 7-year-old son.
Open resistance and parallel networks are the only options. The reason so many governmental organs both at the national and local levels are corrupt is through at least a decade of corruption in which the organizations behind the Great Reset moved their lackeys into key positions.
Here in Germany this is very noticible, as many have direct ties to the WEF and associated groups.
The only thing that is going to work is resistance in numbers. They need to achieve 80% compliance with the vaxx passes, in order to bring in a Global ID — the Self Sovereign Identity Pass.
I have worked on several documents that came directly from a European government. They were in negotiations with several organizations to develop the passes as early as 2017. This, ofc, means they lied the entire time.
If these passes go through, get ready for a bumpy ride. The measures imposed for the virus Trojan horse are just the start.

Critical Race Theory is Black Supremacism – and obviously, Anti-White racism at the same time. Why anyone sends their children to these schools now is the real mystery. Do they want a child that hates themselves or them for being White?
Larry Elder is a White Supremacist. He hid it well, didn’t he?
Lol, yeah I saw that headline the other day. Could’ve been straight out of The Onion, for all I knew.
Yeah, I can’t wait for Kamala, the wealthy, pampered offspring of slave holders, to accuse Larry Elders of some crime of race betrayal.
IIRC correctly, the headline of choice was “The black face of white supremacy”
My non-parent’s 2 cents for parents is:
It’s going to take more than just homeschooling to send kids out into this world right. They are going to need a clear idea of what the hell is going on in the world. They are going to need an attitude of, and skills that enable, independence and self-sufficiency… and they are going to need resources – community, land, and/or some capital – to live that way.
End of the 2 cents..
Thanks for the two cents but since you are not a parent then you can’t conceive of where we’re at in the analysis of the situation and therefore you are stating the obvious.
It’s preposterous to suggest that we are making this choice without explaining to our bright young man what is going on in the world. To ensure that he is independent and self-sufficient is precisely the point
As for “resources” they are up for grabs for those who value skills, hard-work, common sense and a purposeful life. A public school will work towards the exact opposite in order to create weaklings and those with a victim mentality.
cheers.
“As for “resources” they are up for grabs for those who value skills, hard-work, common sense and a purposeful life.””
i believe this is becoming less and less so, at least in traditional senses. In fact, in my mind, familiarity with a region that is healthier and more aligned to the USA’s actual future might be more valuable than any education or particular career in the not too distant future. D from OR, you’re in Oregon, so your kids are probably ahead of curve as to hometown region. All the best. Comment wasn’t aimed at you; it was general.
Definitely wise and pragmatic advice, RG. I’m seventh of nine kids, and by the time I really needed that advice, my parents were not giving any advice beyond “get out and get a job.” Took me far too long to learn the real nitty gritty. But, no regrets here. That’s the way the cookie crumbles!
@ D from OR
Good choice. I’ve known quite a few that were homeschooled and they turned into remarkable adults. Just look for like-minded folks so he can socialize and interact with others and you should be all set.
Bravo!!! This is fantastic. You are a stellar parent.
As a native Oregonian (Blue River, in the mountains outside of Eugene) I have long harbored dreams of returning to a new secessionist country called Cascadia– founded upon the bio-regional character of the region.
How far we have come in such a short time! Oregon now seems more likely to be re-named AntiFada. It’s hard to see how anything other than a massive cleansing by guillotine will put it back on course. .
…literally read the paper during the entire class with me sitting the back taking notes.
I just laughed for about a minute straight after picturing a teacher doing that.
Yeah, I was incredulous….I still have the notes:
8:15 – Teacher is reading the paper, kids are noisy.
8:20 – Still reading kids in minor shouting match.
8:30 – Reading….minor altercation.
8:31 – Looking over top of paper as one girl has another on the floor while pulling hair….much screaming.
9:00 EMS and resource officer leave just before the bell rings.
*only part of this story is true
What, that you were incredulous?
No, that he still has the notes.
Blacks?
In 8th grade I had a science teacher who didn’t teach class more than half the time. At the opening bell he said “work on your science fair projects”. Then he disappeared until the end of class.
I was a very naive kid. Only years later did it occur to me he was probably drinking in some hidey hole. Hell, there could have been a whole club of such drinking teachers.
Good story, hmuller.
Not to be a “topper,” but my 11th grade chem teacher left the inmates unsupervised on lab days. This led to many interesting unsupervised experiments, as well as cork fights and the use of the word “chickenfucker” in class. We were left to our devices because the teacher drank constantly, including whiskey between classes (maybe even during them, though it was never seen, only smelled).
Looking over top of paper as one girl has another on the floor while pulling hair….much screaming. – Hardrock

I would suggest a kind of “hybrid” system of home schooling, where kids use a home-school curriculum at home, supplemented by community or church-run schools that meet one or two times a week.
With elementary aged kids, the idea of meeting a couple of times a week (2-4 hours total) would be to review their work to make sure they were keeping up, look for problem areas to work on, and provide social interaction.
This would also be the basic plan for the older kids, except for providing them with extra instruction in more advanced work (mainly in math, the sciences, and literature). Truth be told, the only high school kids who take the more advanced classes are the college-bound–and even among them it’s the ones who are planning on careers in more demanding fields. Most of the kids in high school are not taught more than the most basic science and math.
Probably some kind of minimal tuition would be required, but I think the community would step up to the plate to provide for the really poor families. Tuition could be waived for parents who volunteered to teach classes or provide other support.
Doing away with the portion of the property tax bill that pays for public schools (and returning it to the taxpayers) would free up a lot of bucks. In my school district, the local contribution to public education is $10 million a year. (Another $10 million a year comes from state and federal funds–so a total of $20 million a year is spent to serve an enrollment of 2,000, at an annual cost of $10,000 per kid.)
My point here is that an extra $10 milliion a year sloshing around in the local community is a lot of bucks.
Something like this is what we’re looking at, and we’ve found many different options so far with only a few days of searching.
As far as cost, that may become necessary at a certain enrollment level, but most are co-op style organizations that only charge a fee for activities if the parents aren’t occasionally participating as chaperones or volunteering to teach.
Take a look at Peggy Hall’s home schooling ideas (she’s an educator). I haven’t delved but I know it’s a community effort:
http://www.thehealthyamerican.org
In any case, it’s like with community farming. I have a shitload of squash, but no tomatoes, so I trade with someone who has tomatoes. Same with schooling. The people who can teach math do so, and the ones that can teach English do that. It’s a community effort, not every man for himself.
I personally know some people who home schooled their kids, I don’t know how they did it, but the kids went off to university without a hitch.
Sadly, now the universities are ruined too.
In the old days a small community would hire a teacher for grades 1-8. She would get room and board, moving from home to home, so the burden of her keep was spread around, and a small salary, for which most of the parents ponied up their share, though children of the destitute still got to participate. My grandparents went to such a school, though I believe it was publicly funded in the early 20th Century. The Amish still use that method. The teacher works until she is married, and isn’t much older than her pupils or much better educated than the 8th graders in her class. Boys apparently don’t do that work, as their labor is needed on the farm. Their education is basic and old school, but they graduate people who can read, write, and have necessary math skills, which is more than can be said for many public schools today.
I had an idea yesterday to start “The 50’s/60’s Schools”:
Same curriculum I had in Ohio. Same English with diagraming sentences, same books to read (Great Expectations etc.), same science with updates, same history with updates plus shop, automotive, home ec for cooking and sewing, typing classes, putting on plays, gym class, swim class plus chemistry and languages and art classes.
Make the curriculum fun and interesting. Even teach shorthand!
Just doing a general course at my high school plus a little algebra I went to Ohio University and became an R.N. in 6 quarters. I even passed chemistry without having taken it in high school because I had good teachers/professors.
I say, don’t fix what ain’t broken!
I loved learning as a kid/teen. We could make it happen again, especially if the kids and parents knew they were repeating what was done 60 years ago.
And cursive writing!!! 🙂
I read where one of the Shriver kids attended a private school that sounded like that. No computers, even.
I don’t know what you’d call it, Old School?
It always amazed me that so many educators seemed to view computers as a body of knowledge, instead of a piece of equipment.
Hear! Hear!
First, understand the human process, then fold in the other stuff, like computers to augment the human process.
I rue the day cellphones arrived!
The plan sounds racist; in some school systems standards have been lowered to the point of non-existence.
At this point, any standards are racist and a blatant example of White Supremacy.
Brh
There was a time just before public education in big cities fell apart. I was in 6th grade in 1974 and the Cleveland west side little elementary schools were still pretty independent in terms of teaching styles.
At one point we got the local morning paper for a week. We learned the significance of the masthead, what “above the fold” meant, and the difference between news and editorial content. We even learned about the stock exchanges and how to read the stock reports.
My teacher introduced us to the paper that Monday morning, holding it up in all its glory and said, “Half of what’s in here is lies.”
30 jaws hit the desktops and she softened it a bit by pointing out that that included people quoted in various news articles lying about what they did or didn’t do. It left an impression that has served me well in being skeptical of what I read.
Along side handwriting, mathematics, reading, speech,music, art, etc. we also had a rudimentary logic segment along the lines of “cause and effect”. I think we got that as early as 2nd grade. I see what young people are exposed to now and I feel nearly despondent.
With good reason. About 10 yeas ago I picked my oldest grandson up from second grade & he was telling me about his music class which turned out to be a computer program called “garage band.” Why couldn’t the teacher have taught the kids simple songs? Now they don’t even bother with that.
Abby wood — To have that school would require the parent’s support & having no computers in the classroom would freak them out. I agree with you& would add one thing — no grade inflation.
I just got off a Zoom session with a VA health practitioner where she just stated to the group that the long term effects of artificial sweeteners like Stevia are not well known and thus should be used with caution or avoided if possible until more information is available. So, why are we not applying the same logic to the vaccine? I think we all know why.
i use sucralose like a fiend

I have used Sweet’nLow in my daily coffee for 40-50 years and I’m relatively healthy. However, during this period I did grow a 4 inch tail and a third eye in the middle of my forehead.

Yep. That Stevia is a killer alright! I’m about done with the medical community as a whole. Half of ’em are actively lying and the other half don’t have a clue. It’s all about the ka-ching, ka-ching these days.
‘Twas ever thus.
Was there ever a “one brief shining moment” era in our world? I think not. Money talks and bullshit walks.
My friend and I went to different doctors this week to get medical exemptions for the vax. We are in CA under different health plans. We are different ages. We have different conditions we were using to attempt to get the exemption.
We both got the same feedback. “Wish I could but I would lose my license.”
Apparently, about 2 weeks ago the state of CA issued a warning to doctors that if they are to give an exemption, they will be scrutinized and medical records investigated and face disciplinary proceedings.
My DR said that the only thing he could give an exemption for was anaphylactic shock which would have to occur in office after one got the vax. Thus, you have to get the vax to get an exemption from the vax.
Kafka. Joseph Heller
Interesting. I was able to get one from my Kaiser Permanente physician.
In northern CA!
Doesn’t it come from the Stevia leaf?
Yes.
I’ve been using Stevia for years and I’m pretty damned healthy.
Was that ‘health practitioner’ concerned about Pharma poisons? Probably not.
No she wasn’t MQ and I didn’t try to stir the pot.
Oh Good Grief! So the long-term results of consuming Stevia sweetener or unknown. Well, that’s better than sugar…..where the long term use of sugar in foods is quite WELL KNOWN…..and has produced a nation of fat-asses who are all going to die from complications due to diabetes!!!!
I will take my chances with the Stevia, thank you very much.
Like a wise man once observed: The definition of an “expert” is some jackass who lives 50 miles up the road from you.
Wizard, I used to grow the plant for a while, stevia. I don’t anymore because I have no use for sweets, but I’m not aware of any side effects. From the plant itself at least.
Wizard, forgot to say I do consume a bit of honey when I’m under the weather, because I’m a beekeeper and I know it’s good for me. Also use a bit in pasta sauces sometimes. I think it can be used for anything you’d use sugar for. But I don’t crave sweets at all.
Don’t buy the awful so called chinese honey though, that’s toxic. If you like sweet, buy good local honey. Great for allergies.
Food is medicine.
A beekeeper? Swoon…if you collect pollen, I’m all yours…
Also has lots of antibacterial properties – good for topical dressing of wounds – just don’t sleep near any ants.
Food is medicine = my mantra.
Glad to see others say the same.
Honey is fantastic, and I also love maple syrup but I use them sparingly.
Not a sweets fanatic either.
Mary, I may have picked it up from you actually. It’s true.
Ron, don’t get me worried with collecting pollen comments. The internet can be a strange place, so let me state it categorically, confirmed middle aged straight man here with wife and children! Yes, antibacterial, good for dressing wounds, also keeps virtually forever if stored right, without refrigeration. Condensed energy.
Rulo – not to worry.
“…let me state it categorically, confirmed middle aged straight man here with wife and children!” ~ Rulo
Me too.
Just yanking your chain. Always wanted to keep bees and there’s a small group here in St. Johns County, but I’ve never gotten involved – mainly due to lack of time.
I’ve eaten bee pollen daily for more years than I can recall. When I was a kid in SFL (’70’s), pollen was plentiful, but when the citrus groves went, so did the pollen.
Now I get it from closer to your haunts, over in Lake City. No appreciable quantities from the locals here.
That was the attraction, so don’t get any ideas:)
Does anyone find it at all ironic that the day the Tailban walked into Kabul (15 August, 2021) occurred exactly 50 years to the day after Nixon suspended gold convertibility, which many consider to be the day the U.S. dollar technically died?
So the dollar died on 15 August 1971 and, as history may very well judge, America’s hegemony died on 15 August, 2021.
Biblical scholars may have to update the meaning of the word “jubilee” to include “ a celebration of the cessation of a nation’s ability to wage endless war and confiscation of its peoples’ liberty via the unrestrained creation of fiat currency.”
And will we then not all enter a season of much needed celebration and joy?
https://nypost.com/2021/08/15/taliban-enter-afghanistan-capital-kabul-dont-plan-to-take-it-by-force/
It’s entirely possible that the two issues you mention are, actually, salutary events in the affairs of the nation. The dollar’s reserve currency led to American hegemony as much as its military strength. Maybe it’s time for hegemony to end and more attention paid to internal strengths, such as the family, community and local economy.
I’ll drink to that Shotho!

My impression of the gaggle of CFN commenters is that we are mostly over 50 years old and right of center. Median age? My guess is 63.

“But will the under 50 crowd listen to us after we kinda sorta put them in this clusterfuck?”

Well, I’ve read the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) statute and regs, and here’s what they say:
Big Pharma’s immunity from liability is only applicable if the vax is deployed under EUA. If the vax is approved, it would appear that Big Pharma will now be open to law suits from the injured, and class action law suits at that. Have these guys not noticed this provision in the EUA regs and statutes?
It doesn’t matter. The government now operates under the “Nixon Doctrine” to wit “It’s not illegal when they do it”. And their friends are covered by the “Obama Doctrine”, to wit “Let’s just look forward”.
Yep, par4 – and completing the Obama Doctrine, “and make sure this (insert as necessary) never happens again.”
It also says somewhere that you ain’t allowed to steal elections, but laws are for little people. We are now deep in the Might is Right mire.
Just got a notice that the Pfizer vac has been approved by the FDA. The widening gyre is spinning uncontrollably towards a resolution.

That’s why the desperate push to force vaccines on as many people as possible.
Now that it is approved, they will seek to make it mandatory, but how will anyone injured be able to sue, as there will be as little as possible of any kind of control group to compare it to.

There you are; I couldn’t find you on Friday’s roster; thought you may have succumbed to the S1 glycoprotein. Fortunately, not yet. I left a note indicating that there is a recent publication of the first full autopsy of a mRNA induced death. The S1 glycoprotein was found in literally every organ in the patient’s body and there was massive inflammation at those sites. Autopsies are the hard core science side of medicine So, that’s it in terms of the theory that the S1 protein stays at the injection site. It is wrong. The S1 glycoprotein toxin goes everywhere, and hence all the damage and immunopathology being reported.
Here’s the source for the article.
June 2021 edition of the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, article entitled, “First case of postmortem study in a patient vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2.”

“Big Pharma will now be open to law suits from the injured” I very much doubt such law suits will go anywhere in our corrupt legal system.
Agree.
I unfortunately doubt that the so called illegit fda ‘approval’ that, by the way was done without the usual processes (reviews, public comment, analysis of side effects), will strip away the legal immunity deal big pharma has with the government. They will still hold on to their immunity deal; otherwise they would not be pushing the ‘vax.’
I believe the US has a blanket regulation stating that vaccines in general cannot be grounds for lawsuits. This is why the Gene-therapy jabs are classified as vaccines although they really.
That makes a lot of sense and explains why they are so obsessed with calling a gene therapy a ‘vaccine,’ which is is NOT.
BG, indeed, pharmaceutical companys are immune from lawsuits, but companys that require vaccination as a condition of continued employment might not be. It might be a good idea to have your lawyer on speed dial if you’re forced to get a shot, and have a bad reaction to it.
Actually I’d to hear an attorney address this issue.

I have little doubt that is covered. In every country that this is being rolled out, there are contracts with indemnity clauses that fully absolve the Pharmacos of any responsibility. Pfizer’s contracts are to remain secret for anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on country.
The level of corruption is absolutely off the charts.
Then people should sue their respective governments for knowingly putting their citizens in (likely) danger, at a hefty profit, while providing no available recourse for the victims of a medical experiment.
Of course, suing the government is a real bitch. But if millions of people pitch in, then you’ve got some legal firepower to work with, I suppose.
Mango – if you’re suggesting a class action suit, here’s how that racket works out:
Attorneys typically take the case on contingency, but are entitled to 30% of the settlement as legal fees.
So, in a case with a million claimants or plaintiffs, that are awarded a $100 million settlement, the attorneys get $30 million, and each claimant gets $70 ($70MM/1MM claimants).
Chances are, I could turn my couch upside down and shake it and find that much money.
That’s why these bottom feeders are always trolling for claimants on TV and radio. “Have you or anyone you know, been injured by (fill in the blank)?”
Full disclosure: I come from 3 generations of lawyers, so I know there are some noble ones, but not many left.
Nice breakdown, Ron. Fucking hell.
Well, I’m not saying it would “work”. But at least it would annoy the hell out of them for a while.
And it would be a lot more than $100M. Pfizer got hit for $2.3B in 2009 for much less.
Mango – you’re right.
The point of the math was simply to shine a light on what I understand JHK to mean, by his use of the term “lawfare”, i.e. welfare for lawyers.
In the $2.3B Pfizer suit, the attorneys get $690MM, and assuming 1MM claimants, they receive $1,610 each, 2MM claimants, $805 each – almost all paid by Pfizer’s insurance & reserves – a “cost of doing business”.
The point is the racketeering in the “justice” system. A system designed & codified by lawyers. Cui bono?
@Ron
I’ve always associated “lawfare” to mean warfare by lawyers.
It’s really how I characterize the captured DOJ.
Ron – Wouldn’t this be a Trillion Dollar lawsuit?
You’re right, great for the lawyers. But beneficial for the claimants.
@ Pete – after a little research, your understanding of the term seems absolutely correct.
JHK uses it fairly often, that I’m surprised I continue to take it out of context. Dumbass.
Some value to it though – I told my father, a retired attorney, about the term, sarcastically meaning “welfare for lawyers”, and he laughed his ass off.
Thanks for the correction/education Pete.
Mango – now you’re getting a little crazy with the numbers. Could be a trillion dollar suit, maybe multi-trillion, even approaching a quadrillion maybe, who knows?
A well-worn saying of my father, “You can sue for anything, whether you prevail or not, is a different story”.
Your comment brought another beneficiary to mind – the Indians. In the “Big Tobacco” suit years ago, law firms outsourced “discovery” (primarily document review in preparation for trial) to India for about $18K/year.
What sense would it make to pay a kid fresh out of Law School in the US, $100K/year to do the same work?
Globalism, and opportunists, has/have been creeping up the corporate/professional ladder for longer than people realize.
Yes. Off the charts.
It’s no longer corruption. It’s now open warfare on ALL OF US.
Yeah, that is a better way of saying it …

I believe you are mistaken. The manufacturers of all childhood vaccinations are protected from liability. If your child is injured by the measles vaccine, you must apply to the government for redress.
And that is a prime reason to not let your doctors jab you with a flu shot and the Covid jab on the same day.
All vaccines should be separated by at least a month so if there is an injury it is easy to see which jab did it.
Way back in August of 2015 I was at Ft. Meyer, Virginia in attendance for the change of responsibility (retirement) ceremony for a classmate of mine, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Ray Odeirno. Ray is a giant of a bear/man who had always been reputed as a decent, honest, and caring man and general. Listening to him speak that day gave ample proof of that fact. Ray was replaced my Mark Milley who clearly came off as quite the ass clown with his “paying the butcher bill” remarks about moving forward against the enemies of America. He was rumored by the crowd to be a ass-kisser of the highest magnitude, a patsy that Barry Obama could count on through thick and thin. He clearly still serves the man and the agenda and I was quite certain way back then after seeing and hearing him in action on the parade ground that things were going to go South quite rapidly. I have not been proven wrong have I?
No.
That’s why the rubber stamp hasn’t met the paper…yet. Expect an “amendment” in one of those porkulous bills absolving Big Pharma of liability. Once done, FDA approval is guaranteed.

Yes, its like the other fed based bullshit programs for the injured. Tons of paperwork, waiting time, proofs of connections between the ‘vax’ and the symptoms or results, etc ad nauseum, then a pittance of money.
We’ve had several patients at one of our clinics go thru it, and its a sham. Typical. Think VA or black lung benefits.

I believe the truckers in Australia are planning a shut down. If the trucks don’t move, nothing moves. They’ve alerted the populace to stock up on necessities. They may be intending to park their trucks in such a manner as to block any access to strategic areas and simply leave them sitting there in rows and rows. That will put the cat among the pigeons.
Here Ya Go………..

Australia may have just cut off its nose to spite its face.
We live in a just-in-time world. I’m not sure how many of you here at CFN manufacture but I manufacture precision tools and do so here in the United States. I can tell you without hesitation that my supply chain is in absolute tatters. 99.9% of what you need is still zero. A million-dollar tractor that can do the work of 300 men is nothing but a lawn ornament if it is missing the belt for its alternator.
Some of those people that have been locked up and not allowed to work actually provide goods and services that are required to keep civilization humming along. Very soon, those people are going to discover that a vital cog in the machine necessary for them to eat hasn’t been produced in over 18 months.
Only after all the seed corn has been consumed will the people realize what has happened.
And thus will be ushered in a World Made By Hand.
@ Southern Yankee
Bring it on. At least then I won’t have to listen to people obsessed with their “gender fluidity” all the time here where i live! Keeping starvation at bay will finally take precedence again.
Welcome to complexity! 😉
And that is just what our Deep State masters want. If the Aussie truckers do their shtick, won’t that just accomplish what the evil ones want? Mass hunger and desperation.
Or a $1700 sensor for a $890,000, JD chopper that was 8 months old…………….
Only one that was available in N.America was in Canada……
And IT Would NOT Run, without it.
Nickelthrower, good observations. The seed corn especially. As for the $1M dollar tractor… I’m much smaller scale, but men with hoes and machetes are my choice over technology every day. Women, too.
So you will be out of a job soon. Who do you blame for that?
But we still have guns.
Austrailians had theirs confiscated.
Ever the optimist, James. Where do I get me some of that there Hopium?
I’ll believe it when I see the American Patriot Army raising their flag on the front lawn of the White House, firing their weapons in the air like a bunch of ragged Taliban. Or when I see the new nation of Heartland emerging in the triangle between Texas, Florida and Montana leaving all the dead industrial rust and Californicatia sexual confusion behind. .
Meanwhile I’ll continue armor plating my front door in anticipation of the knock on the door from the OBiden mobile vaccination squads. Because that scenario is more likely than your belief in the return of the rule of law in a United states of America.
I’ve been thinking about former Attorney General Barr, and how it’s been said that he chose to “protect the institution” over doing prosecutions.
He couldn’t really believe he was protecting the FBI. Without the guilty being weeded out and brought to justice, the whole system and rule of law starts to collapse.
The end of the rule of law is bringing America down, and if America goes down the institutions certainly go down as well.
Barr couldn’t preserve the institution by protecting the guilty.
Could have been an honest error on his part, Beryl. “Institution” and “Constitution” do sound very similar. No, seriously, Barr is a mystery. Maybe the answer is simple: he’s corrupt or was threatened. Maybe they threatened to put liquid soap in his bagpipes.
Or maybe he was just thinking about that giant salary he would get and the penthouse suite with a view at Dewey Screwem and Howe?
He’s a rogue, plain and simple. He was working for “Biden” while Trump was still in office.
Forget that, Yo. Not one of them is a rogue. I mean, seriously??
You don’t get elected without kissing numerous rings.
Or appointed. Especially appointed.
He’s never been elected but only appointed. And he only works for the Deep State no matter what his ostensible job is or who appointed him.
A smiling rogue.
Sad to say, I lean more toward your way of thinking.
The pressure is about to be unbelievable.
That’s what they want us to do. It plays into their strengths. Historically, the US government has responded to any serious internal threat with overwhelming force (see the Whiskey Rebellion and the Bonus Army incident). It’s something they are good at. Better to use unconventional methods and resist the urge to bunch up in convenient mass targets.
Hammer, I agree, Mr K is the ultimate optimist.
I’ve been reading your stuff about Peace Corps in Colombia. I did something similar in my youth, in the Middle East. There’s a book you may enjoy, as I did, by Paul Theroux, about a former PC volunteer to goes back to the African village he helped build a school at to find the school in ruins, violence all around, and the guy having a big target on his back for being white, and so assumed, wealthy, gets kidnapped, it’s a terrible story and well written.
“Ellis Hock never believed that he would return to Africa. He runs an old-fashioned menswear store in a small town in Massachusetts but still dreams of his Eden, the four years he spent in Malawi with the Peace Corps, cut short when he had to return to take over the family business. When his wife leaves him, taking the family home, he realizes that there is one place for him to go: back to Malawi on the remote Lower River, where he can be happy again. Arriving at the dusty village, he finds it transformed: the school he built is a ruin, the church and clinic are gone, and poverty and apathy have set in among the people. They remember him — the White Man with no fear of snakes — and welcome him. But is his new life, his journey back, an escape or a trap? Interweaving memory and desire, hope and despair, salvation and damnation, this is a hypnotic, compelling, and brilliant return to a terrain no one has ever written better about than Theroux.”
General Milley and Sec. Austin insists that BLM/CRT training continue even with troops deployed in Kabul?
The important mission of male service members transitioning to becoming female service members will continue. Our National Security depends on it.

Data out of Israel is pretty bad.
TL: DR – I think it is hard to overstate how bad the early Israeli booster data looks. We should all hope this changes.
https://twitter.com/AlexBerenson/status/1429582677708091392?s=20
If the vaccines quit working, we are back to 2/90. If the variants beat our immune responses, are we fighting an uphill battle. For example, one of them went after kids primarily.
“If the vaccines quit working” Our ancestors lived with many endemic diseases for which prevention and treatment worked poorly (e.g. TB, polio) until breakthroughs occurred. My mother lost over a dozen of her cousins in the 1930s to TB. If COVID becomes endemic, it will simply join the long list of historic communicable diseases that populations will either learn to live with or die with.
They are trying to disguise RSV as COVID, because the evil public health officials caused the increase in children with their delusional lockdowns.
Governor DeSantis is doing right now what was known had to be done, back in early 2020.
He is attempting to make treatment that works against COVID available to people when they first get sick.
It’s really too bad, think how many people suffered and died needlessly because Pfizer and the Communist Chinese were dictating what should be done.
The goal was always that “passport”, and people getting well was not going to further that goal.
That’s right. It’s RSV that’s putting kids in the hospital & it can make them very ill. My grandson had to be hospitalized twice when he was only 16 months & the only treatment is o2 by face mask & treat symptomatically. Yet another bait & switch to vaccinate the very young.
I hope he recovered fully.
I’ll probably have an aha, duh moment. But what the hell is RSV? I’m sick of acronyms. Is everyone too damn lazy or unable to spell?
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common, and very contagious, virus that infects the respiratory tract of most children before their second birthday.
For most babies and young children, the infection causes nothing more than a cold. But for a small percentage, infection with RSV can lead to serious, sometimes life-threatening problems such as pneumonia or bronchiolitis, an inflammation of the small airways of the lungs.
For SW, Thank you very much
Oh, the vaccines are working John. Yep, they are doing exactly what they were designed to do….https://rumble.com/vldaex-vaxxed-patients-blood-examined-horrific-findings-revealed-by-german-physici.html
He did recover & it was scary to see him so sick. Parents & grandparents are easy to manipulate with false data, vague threats of what could happen & the always popular guilt that if something DOES happen then your decision not to vaccinate caused it.
Where are the autopsies of those who got the vax, got COVID, and died?
Where are the autopsies of those who got the experimental shot, and died?
June 2021 edition of the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, article entitled, “First case of postmortem study in a patient vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2.”
The autopsy showed that the S1 glycoprotein, the toxin of covid infectivity, was found in every single organ in the patient’s body. Autopsies of covid victims are very rare. The medical examiners are very political………they work for the county. Think that thru.

Ron DeSantis should put Florida on a voluntary prophylactic course of Ivermectin. Doctors with the FLCCCdotnet would be happy to help him out with this.
Then see the outcomes after six weeks.
Abby, I’m in Florida. You wouldn’t believe the amount of flak and pressure the gov is getting from all the usual suspects, mass media, social media, corporations, the left, the woke. Unbelievable. “Blood on your hands! You’ll kill our children!”.
Ron and other Floridians will correct me if I’m wrong.
I support DeSantis 100%
Check out what Dr. Boros has done in his Key West urgent care

Rulo – you are 100% correct.
Never got around to posting the long story of my 17-day battle w/COVID – likely delta.
Short version is, after a downward trajectory over the first 8 days in bed, on day 10, I dosed Ivermectin (my backstop ace in the hole) that I purchased in Feb 2020.
The use was off label, because it was the product intended for livestock (mainly horses). The apple flavoring was nice. Lately, lots of MSM hit pieces about it. Go figure.
I was already having difficulty breathing, and that night was the noticeable turning point – full body response. Days 11 thru 17 were gradual uphill to recovery. Should be bulletproof now.
Definitely agree with Abby – proactive prophylactic use would probably pay in spades. That’s what I should have done much sooner.
abby, Ron, Iver is under lock and key at the local Tractor Supply, with giants signs mandated by the federales warning off customers. I do keep a much reduced stock of breeding rabbits, waiting for the cooler weather to start rebuilding colonies again since I had to butcher most before leaving the southern farm, but the cashier wanted all kinds of paperwork and I couldn’t be bothered. Maybe online? I should try that.
Ron, I’m glad you emerged victorious like I said, glad you had an ace in the sleeve. I’d like to get my hands on some, too. A renewed sense of urgency will force me to find a way. Welcome back to the world of the living. It’s a temporary invitation, as we all have to check out sometime. But Carpe Diem, and three cheers!
Rulo – thanks for the encouraging words, much appreciated. See my comment on Marcela’s Awakening.

Perhaps the virus is mostly taking out those that have been kept alive artificially, eg; those living in nursing homes or in horrid shape? Add to that the obese and those with numerous significant health concerns. Sure there are those taken by it who were seemingly in good health but it’s not super common. Mostly, unless they are elderly, you look at their pic and they are seriously fat.
Does anyone know if any of the vaccinated are surviving the purported “Delta” variant?
Yes, draupnir, the vast majority are surviving Delta. The problem is, the vaccinated are also producing Delta and other “variants” via selective adaptive pressure. It’s far more sinister when you understand that.
Yes, I’ve seen the French interview with Luc Montagnier. I understand that those injections are forcing the virus to adapt. However, I understand the viral load in the injected appears greater than the load in the unvaxxed and am wondering about antibody-dependent enhancement starting to show up.
I’ve tried to explain this to the self righteous vaxed who just won’t hear it. They insist that it is the unvaxed who are causing all of these variants and not them.
I don’t even discuss this with the already vaccinated. Since it can’t be undone, I don’t see any sense in scaring them.
Who can keep all these variants straight?
Apparently the world hopped, skipped and jumped through the Alpha and Omega variants then dove straight into the India Delta and now the Lambda is stalking the US from South America!
Epsilon is running neck and neck with Theta!
Help!
Have you noticed that the Flu used to have different “strains” but they changed the terminology for this invention to be called “VARIENTS”, right out of otherworld and sorcerers video games. A three headed monster that kills everything in its part, a VARIENT. Fear mongering much?
Nice post, JHK.
“This week marks the beginning of the Deep State’s hard time.”
I hope you are right. But Kamala Mattress still could not contain her mirth, as she stepped off a flight to Singapore. Pelosi held a large fundraising lunch where no masks were visible. Schumer danced at a NYC concert with TV talk-show hosts.
They stole an election, looted the Treasury, flushed the Afghanistan problem down the toilet for now, and have forced the FDA to approve the Covid blood-clot booster shot. They seem to be focused only on the 2022 elections. Keep your seat belts fastened.
“flushed the Afghanistan problem down the toilet for now” By no means has it gone down. Instead that toilet is about to vomit up some real painful problems. Stay tuned.
Kamala Mattress, ha, pretty good.
Maybe she will stay in Indonesia?
You bet.
They are celebrating their victory of the techno-feudal takeover.
For thee, but not for me: https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1429478618548342785
For the moment they are focused on Gavin Newsom circling the drain.
Every stop is being pulled out by the DNC from stealing ballots from mailboxes to trotting out Larry Elder’s ex to proclaim he brandished a gun at her while high on weed.
Next they have Carmelita and Nancy on deck to try to save Newsom’s ass.
If Newsom goes down and Elder becomes governor that will be the shot heard round the world.
September 14th is the big day.
I’m not holding much hope for CA. Election fraud is the American way, at least for now.
If election fraud doesn’t end now, it never will. And with the influx of oh-so-grateful Afghanis and Latin Americans adding to the Demorats’ tech-assistec vote totals, I’m pretty sure Clusterfuck Joe* & Co. will be in charge forever.
____________________
If Clusterfuck Joe detracts from this blog, we can call him Goatscrew Joe instead.
UK news coverage of Biden incompetence pulls no punches: https://archive.is/dpJJH#selection-1099.1-1099.97 “Biden was always unfit to be president but his Left-wing media cheerleaders didn’t dare admit it”
There are no coincidences. The UK MSM are no different from the US one. They are probably allowing the groundwork for a seamless transition to The Ho, Hillary or, God help us, Pelosi.
They didn’t dare admit it b/c they had no one else to run on the top of the ticket. Never in a million years would Bernie have been allowed to be there. Remember the 20+ Democratic candidates and their hilarious debates? Who were they gonna run? Marianne Williamson? Cory Booker? Little Pete?
That cackle of Harris’s is involuntary and probably a nervous tic. Just think, if Biden is forced out or resigns, Harris gets to name her vice president. What if Clinton is brought in? Harris won’t last long, and they will have succeeded in getting Hillary into the position she lost to Trump when we rejected her in the first place.
My thoughts exactly.
I think she has a mission that was delayed, and probably now hates us with unparalleled ferocity for her humiliation.
Imagine that: Cackles and Cankles. The Horror! Even the dumb sheep American people won’t stomach that.
You underestimate Democrat voters. Remember, 80% of them still think Clusterfuck/Goatscrew Joe is doing a swell job.
“The ABC interviewer did none of this. Instead, he asked Biden what he thought when he had seen these pictures and allowed Biden to boast that US personnel had got on top of the situation at the airport.
This is just one week in the life of Joe Biden, but you could select almost any other week in his career and find a similar soup of certainty, unknowingness, falteringness and arrogance. It is what you get when you have spent a career with a court media asking you about your choice of ice cream and reached the highest office in the land because you weren’t the other guy.
The world always gets serious again. And it just got serious on Biden’s watch and has shown something that should have been revealed during the primary season long ago: that the man who is now commander-in-chief is not remotely in command of his brief.”
Loved it, thanks for posting it.
A superb editorial. Absolutely on target. The Brits are rightfully horrified and they are calling bullshit on this vapid, non-serious gaggle of woke morons who are sinking this country as the world watches in utter horror and disbelief.
“This week marks the beginning of the Deep State’s hard time. Its narratives are shredding. Its mind-control measures are slip-sliding away.”
One of the deepest and most ghoulish deep-state figure, “general” Michael Hayden making news today.
Of course, it was in the cesspit commonly referred to as “social media”.
Believing it is a great idea to send the unvaccinated on a one-way trip to Afghanistan, because of course, most of them are also Trump supporters.
The US is failed state because it can no longer support the heavy veil of dignity. The rot and corruption and decay is far too widespread and voluminous to be covered. Especially the antagonism.
Here we have a former NSA head agreeing to, if not the death, the banishment, of those declining the experimental “vaccine”.
And we were told to not worry about the NSA and career MIC plants like Hayden.
And people sincerely wonder, “why so much distrust?”
Trust that shall never be recovered.
The Taliban seem pretty hale and hearty, in the midst of a “global pandemic”.
Funny, ain’t it?
Taliban vaccination rate? lol
I encourage them to keep talking this way. It simply removes the mask.
The more draconian the measures, and the more unhinged the language from the fascists behind the Great Reset, the more people begin the process of accepting reality and reacting accordingly
Agree.
It is a new mask.
It is an effort to identify a new enemy.
There always needs to be an enemy.
The one they set their sights on, are those who oppose their very existence.
This who oppose the plutocracy and its “deep state” functionaries.
The bureaucrats that move between the dominating private sector conglomerates and the agency head positions.
This new enemy is conservative, white, un-woke and unapologetic, Trump supporting or at least conservative, unvaccinated and non-believing in state “science”.
Hayden is emboldening the rift. The attitudes against this domestic enemy.
The narrative is that we shall return to normal once we vanquish the enemy, the other, amongst us.
I fervently wish, hope, and pray that if the COVID-19 kills anyone in America this week, that the virus makes it a priority to suffocate this woke P.O.S. Hayden. What a despicable traitor to our republic this yo-yo is.
Stranded “Americans”.
American citizens, or Americans?
Big difference.
Passport holders on account of a liberal immigration system?
Contractors?
We shall soon find out how many are innocent Americans.
When the US starts bringing 5,000 “translators” in a week for immigration parole.
Coming soon to a military base near you. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.
They made their bed in Afghanistan. On some imperial money extracting venture. They did not have to.
Lie in this bed.
Agreed. My first take on this was why in the hell were there so many Americans in this shit hole in the first place if it was so dangerous. But then I remembered. Oh yeah, for the money! Let ’em spend their way out then.
I don’t understand why they didn’t get out sooner. It may just be that they knew our government would never let that cash cow end.
Or thought they knew.
As the US has drawn down troops in Afghanistan (and Iraq) on the one hand, with the other, the US government has contracted out military-type functions, such as protecting military installations, and even training, and EVEN supporting in battle, government forces.
These “contractors”, who are really mercenaries, or “soldiers-for-hire”, make enough money to do this risky work. If they gross $100-200k per year, you can rest assured they cost the US taxpayer double that. Firms like Blackwater.
For the sake of discussion, if we buy the BS narrative presented by the DoD about “the mission” and “protecting the homeland” and my favorite “preventing another 9/11″ (yes, because the evil plotters huddled in some cave in Afghanistan and planned their evil deeds there….”, we have this:
In addition to the outsize cost, these private “contractors” create all kinds of legal issues. The UCMJ (United Code of Military Justice) does not apply to contractors. Or does it? What happens when some contractor kills, or worse, molests an Afghan?
Were these contractors evacuated already? Were they not?
And of course we have the translators who, like many Americans, believed the US government.
It is very sad.
If the Taliban do seek revenge, which may be more understandable than Americans realize, (how many Afghans died by accident on the receiving end of American weapons?) but which I find very upsetting, let’s hope that they don’t torture these people to death.
In the Matrix, the debacle in Afghanistan is a disaster for the US on so many levels, others here will cover most or all of them. Some US equipment will wind up in Chinese/Russian/Iranian hands, and they will study it. America’s reputation. The future of the dollar as “reserve currency”. In addition to the potential for lots more dead and wounded before this chapter is over.
But, buried in the news, is a story that is of far more import, I feel, to Americans living in the USA. Especially those in the Southwest.
As our host warned in his yellow book 15 years ago, the Southwest is starting to run out of water.
That portends a much bigger calamity for tens of millions of Americans than the debacle in Afghanistan.
Clarification: In no way, do the crimes of Americans in that God-forsaken land, justify the excesses of the Taliban. I’d say the Taliban has probably killed many more innocents than the US.
Just as in Vietnam… while America prolonged a futile war, leading to an estimated 1.5 million deaths, and while America did commit war crimes, such as My Lai and Agent Orange, the North Vietnamese probably killed and tormented MANY more Vietnamese than the US did.
In both cases, the US engaged in a dubious war. Besides the cost in American blood, and treasure, by prolonging the conflicts, American actions directly and indirectly probably led to much more human suffering. And in the end, it didn’t make a difference.
History “rhymes”.
Re water in the Southwest:
Yes, I expect waves of internal immigration to rainier regions.
Why do I feel like a deer caught in the head lamps?
I found the casualty numbers on Afghanistan very interesting.
2,300 American military personnel killed. 3,800 contractors killed.
Although it’s true there are some military contractors who service equipment, run computer systems, even sling mess hall hash. That surprisingly high number tells me most of the combat on our behalf was done by hired mercenaries (mostly . former rangers, seals, special forces, infantry grunts)
I knew the DOD was using more mercenaries in recent years; but I didn’t know the wars were now their show..
That “killed” statistic is very eye-opening.
And Tennessee would like to offload some excess water yesterday. 🙁
I suspect many might be “American” in the same way that Ilhan Omar is “American”
She married her brother and she smokes. Beyond that, she is an Ingrate.
Kudo’s to JHK for gradually joining us tin-foil hatters in believing this much mismanaged government is not just due to stupidity and coincidence. Those in power have a nefarious agenda.
It’s nearly impossible for the passengers to save the ship when the captain and crew are determined to sink it. The best we can do is secure our persoal life boats and load them with supplies.
I think I’ll take my chances with the iceberg. I may freeze my butt, but at least I won’t sink. This ship is going down.
I think that’s going to be as good as it gets. I don’t think any preparation we can do will be adequate. It’s going to be adapt and overcome or succumb all the way down, I’m afraid. Death comes to us all either way sooner or later.
Hereward, all icebergs eventually melt.
That’s why I recommend the life boats. But I agree the ship is going down.
True, H. It wasn’t a very good metaphor, was it? I wonder what form the “lifeboat” will take? Maybe we can all move to Florida. My son’s going on vacation there for a few months. Maybe I’ll “visit” him with the rest of the family and accidently lose my return ticket.
At least, on an iceberg there’s no shortage of fresh water!
And plenty of ice for the scotch the prepared bring.
I agree hmuller. All the talk about “fighting back” ignores the fact that the people who wield the power, deploy the troops & control the information ultimately save the ship or sink it.
Is it foil if they talk about it openly? I mean, there are entire books, whitepapers, and thousands of web-based text on subject written by the perpetrators.
There’s a word for that option: SECESSION
Of course, I see no reason why the free states should give up the flag and the constitution to the woke crowd. The free states should just kick the tyrannical states out of the union. Subtract the requisite number of stars from the U.S. flag, and present the Wokesters with a new tranny flag to fly over their new national capitol of the People’s Republic of Californication in Sacremento.
Next, build a fortified wall between us and them.
Put the military on the border. Tell the Wokesters to keep out. Shoot those who ignore the signs at the border.
If they get unruly, declare war on the tyrannical states. Invade and conquer and subjugate. Then deal with the communist vermin as we see fit.
Just an idea for future action…..
TBH, I sometimes wonder if that is what could be in the future.
I know I’d come back and join up.
In the months and years just before the Revolutionary War there were countless incidents of conflict between royalists and rebels, many violent, some just shouting and other mischief. In letters, diaries and some press reports, these troubles were often referred to as a civil war.
I think our civil war is in full swing now. 🙁
Crazy, innit? Your truth of “can’t move far enough away (to escape the globohomocaps)” is refuted by the very nature of globohomocap itself.
Geography appears to be a key survival feature.
Thanks for today’s article, James. I wish I were as hopeful as you sound in that last paragraph. I would love to see the deep state dismantled and scattered to the four winds, as JFK allegedly said they should be.
Sadly, I fear we have lost all rule of law. Still, we can do our best to keep exposing them, and millions of citizen journalists have been vigorously busy doing just that.
When they approve the poison jab, I think uprisings are inevitable, as millions lose their jobs and the ability to travel or participate in society.
I agree completely that alternative ways of schooling are imminent. Parents are sick of the torture and indoctrination of their children. This is a good thing. I think the community academies will be a fantastic alternative to Wokie School, which is where kids go to be preyed upon and groomed by fetishists.
We are in for quite the clusterfuck shit-show, given all that is coming to a head. Let’s add the regular flu season paranoia that now exists to the pile, plus the new POTATUS admin prediction that ‘white supremacist terrorism’ is imminent.
Ought to be one crazy rodeo.
The people who join any kind of uprising In defiance of vaccinations can look forward to the same treatment the “insurrectionists” got for January 6th. They threw the book at them not just a as punishment for “invading” the Capital building but as a stark warning to any public demonstration. The message ? “We will crush you & don’t forget it.”
They aren’t there just yet. At present, there are too many of us.
They need to get near 80% vaxx uptake first, then they can implement the control grid and grant themselves social license to do what they really want to do.
The Jan 6th folks were a relatively small group. It’s a different story when millions upon millions are rising up. Many a nasty regime has been brought low by peaceful uprisings. There’s still hope.
Br’er Rabbit? Izzat you?
But the FBI just walked back all their insurrectionist talk because they got busted with so many agents/informants trying to organize the riots.
I think this will lead to Pelosi dropping the whole commission LARP.
Yep. That is exactly why they are backing off.
Interestingly enough, the Latino guy who headed up Proud Boys was also an FBI informant.
I agree. There’s a shortage of bona fide domestic right-wing terrorists, The FBI does its best to turn disgruntled rednecks into a serious threat, portraying Jethro Bodine as the next Charles Manson. But the farce and fiction just don’t work, and the FBI winds up with “chew” on its face.
I think the “farce and fiction” are working very well — on the left.
So said the Brits at Lexington and Concorde.
Patriots had an answer for that sort of arrogance.
Time to take a page from the playbook of our ancestors. We need to be animated by the spirit of Thomas Jefferson. A certain tree needs to be refreshed.
I don’t know about losing all rule of law, Mary.
Try rolling thru a stop sign at the end of your street, missing a income tax quarterly payment, or speaking up a little to forcibly at a BOE meeting.
Sorry – I mean laws for the big people. Of course, there are laws for us little folk.
As Leona Helmsley said, “laws are for the little people”.
Wow! A Leona Helmsley reference! Sweet!
I have talked to several hundred people who’ve had the jab. Not one has had any ill effects other than a few who felt “punk” for a few days, usually after the second shot. That makes me wonder if all the stories are bullshit.
But that aside, why did we elect to pull out of Afghanistan in the summer when it’s “fighting season” for the Taliban and other ad hoc groups? Why not do it in the winter when they are less mobile, but we are not? Mysterious, eh? Sounds like we didn’t think it through, but at least our minds are focused on the true problems of the ages, like equity and transformative justice.
Whoever ordered it wanted maximum chaos.
An agreement had already been reached with the Taliban to be gone on May 1st. Biden & the generals knew this obviously & ignored it. They closed Bahgram AFB instead of using it as an evacuation hub. The Taliban (or so it appears to me) waited three months for them to make good on the withdrawal.
Why did they ignore this original date? Was this a case of pure incompetence or did they really believe the Afghan army was competent & we could stay there as long as we wanted & ignore the taliban?
The troops that defected know how to fly those helicopters & run the sophisticated equipment. We taught them. They are not our friends.
Erik – a 40 something woman we know got the jab – several days later she had to be treated by the doctor for an irregular heartbeat, then her lymph nodes swelled up! She said she was not getting the second jab.
Erik. Maybe the side effects of the jab are exaggerated, maybe not. We should take all extreme narratives with a pinch of salt. However, even if the vaxx is perfectly spiffing and entirely harmless, the Deep State is totally unjustified in imposing it on people who don’t want it and threatening to create a new form of apartheid. And all for a flu virus that 99.75% of people will survive.
Correct. The bottom line is personal freedom. If we give up essential liberty for a little temporary (and probably ephemeral) security, we shall soon have neither.
I have talked to several hundred people who’ve had the jab. Not one has had any ill effects other than a few who felt “punk” for a few days, usually after the second shot. That makes me wonder if all the stories are bullshit.
I hear horror tales from some who got it and relatives of the dead…now up to 5 dead.
Everything we are witnessing was planned.
I don’t know anyone who died of so-called Covid19, but a friend of mine has Bell’s Palsy from the jab.

In the final scene of ‘The Searchers’, Ethan (Wayne) is framed in a doorway, alone, straddling two worlds. Forsook and acknowledged.
Revelatory.
Not welcomed into the new domain. The new order of what remains of his vanished past life.
This where we are heading. An unrecognizable world that not only do we feel we do not belong to, but also a new world we do not want to join.
This is an often repeated theme in myth making. In many art forms.
Just as “that will be the day”
And the day too will come.
He doomed America by accepting his niece back.
America doomed itself by not accepting him.
They accepted Ethan, his niece, and her bastard progeny. You just need to be tough, not smart. But soft at the same time. “That’s a baby!”. Feminine. Doomed.

Another Red Herring hammer attack, using hand tools and a lot of enthusiasm. Could this deployment of hammers and hatchets in Portland, Chicago and NY be just coincidental, or is it something more, a coordinated effort to inspire terror, like Club Members assaulting elderly Asians, and White People walking dogs.
Nothing to see here, look over there at the Oligarchy, who is f@kkng you over too.

“Dog whistle”
It is called that because of the ease in grasping the attention of the weak-minded. It works. Famously.
The remnants of Wiki-Leaks re-released a report of the CIA using the rubric of feminism to capture support for the Afghanistan effort. We are fighting this war to liberate women.
And people fell for it. Or at least settled for it.
Let’s get poor, uneducated, and feeble-minded white people’s attention back where we want it.
Look, black people!
Well, you can just ignore the mayhem in our cities, Avatar, for example, this weekend in Chicago, 51 people shot, 7 dead, including a 62 year old lady, and a 7 yo kid. It seems to be a little more than a racist dog whistle tho.
You can ignore this level of bloodshed, but at your own peril.
Crocodile tears from you and perhaps Malthuss. I think we can all be certain that a disproportionate amount of the victims are black.
But, as disingenuous narratives so often go, it’s not about the killed.
It’s about guns. Ain’t that right?
Well, hammers and hatchets are coming into play, too, as cited above.
Last week we had 3 stabbings in Ct. Guns don’t seem to be necessary, edged weapons will do in a pinch.
Avatar, I’m with you here. Yes, there’s savages in the black community. Many savages, even. I’ll concede that. But not the majority. Not by a long shot. Many, many decent folk, common people just trying to raise their families and put food on the table.
There’s savages in every group. Back when the law was enforced, they were dealt with, all of them. Law enforcement, propaganda, dog whistles as you say, permissive elected officials stoking the fire by turning a blind eye to the mayhem of one group and blaming all on others.
Nobody wants the law strongly enforced more than decent black folk. The main contender to dethrone Newsom in Cali, a black from a troubled area, very much pro-police, is accused of white privilege. This is where we’re at. Same in NYC. We have gone crazy.
Again, I know bricks will fly in my direction here, but in my experience, I’ve met many good honest decent black people, a majority. Whites go beserk, Mexicans, Chinese mafias are famous for vicious revenge killings. I’m not in denial. I recognize problems exist. Feral, ignorant, savage bastards. It’s a long discussion.
But think about it. They have it where they want us: black v white. Lib v conservative. Pro vaxx v anti vaxx. Secular v religious. Those divisions have always existed, but the level of anger, the foam in mouth hatred, are off the charts. We’ve gone from “I don’t agree with you” to “you must die”.
Beautifully written. You’re getting there, but you still haven’t identified the motive. Rather, you seem to continue the emotional theme of personified evil.
Let us not forget that all wars have been resource wars, whether for control of people, territory, tribute or consumables. Even Hitler was very specific about his war aims, goals and objectives.
Perhaps the greatest irony is that you yourself are among the leading thinkers about the coming resource cliff. Who do you think were reading your books and attending your lectures?
Do you really think you’re the only one who could logically put all the pieces together? And why must those engineering these events be cast as some cartoonish fiends?
Maybe the greatest fear should be facing the cold, determination to alter the course of human history.
Do you really think you’re the only one who could logically put all the pieces together?
Do you really think he has said anything like that, ever?
And why must those engineering these events be cast as some cartoonish fiends?
Are they not? Those cartoonish fiends had to be modeled after someone…
“That is, the real-and-only reality, not the one confabulated backstage for you by skulking quislings.”

Interesting you say that. Rainer Fuellmich (of the Corona Ausschuss here in Germany) has commented that in the context of this Great Reset takeover, the WEF and co. appear to have specifically chosen individuals with “thin” resumes and rather unimpressive cognitive capabilities to carry out their dirty work.
He suggested that these people are not only easy to control, but they also lack empathy and higher cognitive functions required for nuanced thinking and reasoning.
Many of them also have highly inflated or lacking credentials, such as Christian Drosten (of PCR fame), who is not actually a doctor.
We’ve got this one repeatedly spouting on the tee vee. Edinburgh University Professor of Global Public Health.
I heard her say Build Back Better a few months ago and it sent a shiver up my spine.

What about real estate, what’s propping that up?
Especially in this new era where tenants don’t have to pay any rent
The Supreme Court said you can’t take it (people’s property) but you don’t have to give it back right away.
Don’t worry, as was mentioned the foreign nationals will all come home to roost here and buy everything up, including real estate, at bargain basement prices in order to unload their phony US dollars!
Wall St is buying a lot of residential real estate.
Thanks to the Fed, Wall Street can borrow at very low interest rates.
The type of person who reads and comments here and is a landlord, can’t borrow money like that. If they have a rental or two, and the tenant “pleads COVID”, you can’t collect rent–but you have to pay the note and taxes.
Not to mention constant and careful maintenance that rental property demands, which can be costly.
And better keep up that liability insurance!
I have family in Idaho who are renting. Their rent keeps going up due to people moving in from Washington and Oregon and driving the prices up. The rental contract they have is ridiculous. They are responsible for things that they shouldn’t be. Such as a tree root growing under a block walkway, that is causing damage. I told them to call a lawyer, but they tell me the contract says they are responsible for most maintenance.

I very much agree that the stock market is a hugely important, if not the most important part of the controllers’ money printer.
I expect them to do just about anything and everything to keep it propped up.
David Stockman has been saying for a long time this huge bubble is going to burst but it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Retail is losing ground except for discount places like Big Lots, Dollar General and TJ Maxx. I was in a regular dept store about a month ago and there were NO customers. I think they’re trying to run the lease out and then the mall.
I’ve never understood the stock market and the fact that they’re a sizable portion of GNP should worry everyone. Especially people who are counting on it for retirement funds.

Gladiator is a great film that would have been elevated even further if a few key deleted scenes had been left in the official cut.
I walked into the local college gymnasium and got my Moderna shot over 5 months ago, and the booster three weeks later. Feeling great! Enjoying all kinds of additional immunity. Don’t understand why half the country doesn’t want it. Of course, its easy for me. I’m an expert in all the things that have perplexed many denizens of this blogroll: PCR, mRNA, it is all second nature, due to my education and experience. Its hard not to look down on people for being stupid, but I don’t respect stupidity. And not getting the vaccine is exceptionally stupid.
I refuse to argue anymore. I tell people: ask your personal physician. Go test the mettle of your borrowed ideas with someone with an M.D. See if you have any iron in your spine after facing down a white coat who knows how fucked up you are, privy as they are to your medical history. If you want, go and bother different doctors for all the second opinions you want. Go get the prescription for Ivermectin, if you can- be your own guinea pig. I can respect that, like I respect anyone who climbs into a cannon to discover what it is like to get shot out of it.
To me, vaccine skeptics at this point are a lot like Don Rumsfeld refusing the surrender of the Taliban at the negotiation table in 2001. We basically won the war, but he snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Similarly, I suspect more than a few people are going to be sucking air through a ventilator in the next 12-24 months, if they can get one.
Meanwhile, “You will then see the rapid assembly of home-schooling networks that aggregate informally into small private academies — and, of course, the biggest losers will be the minorities who lack the cultural mojo to home-school. ”
In no way, shape, or form is this happening. Our society is built around serving up public education. Believe me, everyone wants these kids in public schools, they need these kids in public schools. Their parents are going to riot should that access be cut off. Some proportion of them spent weeks sweating bullets, crammed in a shipping container to get here for those benefits and they will not give them up easy. If class sizes shrink, for some departed cohort driven by anti-scientific or religious zealotry, it just means teacher-student ratios become more advantageous.
I am a keen observer of “da youth” and I am discovering that this generation of kids, besides the usual amounts of doubt in the “wisdom” of their elders, is supercharged by the availability of the internet. When they want to know something, they are going directly to the sources they can access in the palms of their hands.
Mummy and Da-da are not teachers; I know this intimately because I live next to a set of these creatures. It is axiomatic that you cannot teach what you don’t know and the average modern parent is, frankly speaking, not bright and not going to be able to leverage any free time or useful instruction to broaden the intellectual horizons of their own young. I just don’t see any excess organizational capacity among the population to generate a market of sorts for private education, at any level of quality. I can see them possessing enough hubris to think they can do this, however, and it will be a fucking disaster and a very short-term experiment in failure.
Do you think Da-da is going to patiently teach Geometry and discuss the finer points of literature? Nah. Will Mummy have the patience and dedication to take over what the state so conveniently packaged together with prepared meals and day-care oversight? Fuck, no. Are they going to “chill” at home while the parents are at work? Under the tutelage of some volunteer brigade or glorified babysitters? More like stew in resentment and grow a hatred hotter than the sun.
Kids turned out from school will evolve in the following manner: they will learn what they want, when they want it, and they will lose all and I mean every shred, of respect for their “elders”. For most kids, such an experience will accelerate any impression that their parents are a burden and an embarrassment. In a race between two institutions, education and the family, which is going to make it to rock bottom first? And it is clear to me that it is the family, because that is the institution being propped up by the other. Only a delusional egoist (as many parents are) thinks they can replace a school as a formative experience. Kids pulled from school by overbearing parents will start looking through drawers for sharp objects.
A privileged few who aggregate into “small private academies” – something I have a lot of trouble imagining in all but the most wealthy cohorts, who are already set in that disposition anyway, aren’t going to prevent the all the Children of the GMO-corn from assimilating with their generation, in common with the preoccupations and prerogatives that will define it in the set of crises and factors that will unite them in opposition to whatever is left of the cultural and political status quo of the last 50 years. They are going to respond with outright rebellion or passive-aggressive resistance and not going to lie down so their elders just ride rough-shod over them with their ideologies and alt-pedagogy. We’ll be lucky if they aren’t hunting us down and stringing us from lamp-posts so we better be extra careful with the bullshit from here on out.

Ventilators are now contraindicated.
Early treatment is the key, even for those of you who dutifully took the jabs and are still getting Covid.
Regarding homeschooling: In no way, shape, or form is this happening.
No, sir. Public schools around the country are suffering dwindling enrollment at a fast pace, this last year especially. Many are seeing 2-3% loss in a year, due to people moving their kids to private or homeschool. Umm, that’s a lot.
Just wait until there are vaccine mandates for all public schools. It’ll look like birds flying en masse away from an approaching hurricane.
MrMango-
Not sure that is true everywhere.
I was just on vacation in a reddish, rural, resort area of a blue state.
I met a friend who works in education in those parts and she said enrollments at some local schools had shot up 20 or 30%
I figure these are wealthy, UMC types fleeing the blue hives and the failed policies and politicians they voted into power.
A mermeration.
Feeling great! Enjoying all kinds of additional immunity.
As if you would know. How many times per year do you normally get a cold? Couple? Same for everyone else.

Lil Debbie lay dormant for a long time, like a case of syphilis; but the arrogant troll has erupted again.
So this commentator thinks home schooled children will rise up and kill their parents because they resent not getting the Communist CRT brainwashing we all need and want..Demented.
His vision of a high quality public school education is absurd. He just wants a captive audience of young minds to poison with his vile dogmas.
His side thinks they’ve won because they can strap people down for forced vaccinations and censor truthful information from the internet.
But they have revealed their hideous faces, their demonic agenda. And the people are waking up.
Well stated. I agree.
Responsible parents who comprehend the damage being done to their children by the Leftist freak show that is the public schools and the teacher’s unions will never look back, now that they are pulling their children from them.
They realize that private schools and home schooling are the only sane path forward. Public education (government schools) have completely discredited themselves.
The left chants “Defund the Police”. We should start a campaign to defund the public schools. If those teachers want to keep their well cushy jobs, they must toss the Communist dogma curriculum in the trash!
And the instigators among them should be frog marched out the door while pelted with school cafeteria food, mocked and derided, maybe slapped with a 2 by 4 just to show our determination to take back America..

My plan was to move from CA to FL (which I will still do). Yet, now I’m thinking about leaving the country if necessary. It would take research to determine the most optimal country (Belize? Costa Rica? Ecuador? etc?). Next would be the barriers to overcome to get there.
I guess it will come down to either… violent revolution and fighting against and overthrowing this “rogue shadow government”, or leaving the country for a better situation.
Southern or White Brazil, under the reign of the God King, Jair Bolsanaro. The holy man must seek to live under the peaceful reign of a righteous King, one who tells people to stop being faggots.
…or leaving the country for a better situation.
There are plenty of remote areas left in the US that can prolong your exposure to the madness. Probably still lightyears better than going to Central or South America. At least you’ll have reliable water and electricity in Frog Balls, AR.
Nice folks down there, too. And they fry up a helluva catfish.
Okay, Mango. I’ll bite. There’s really a place called Frog Balls?
Perhaps. But I don’t believe so. The reference is from a George Carlin bit about 20 years ago…
No Frogs Balls. AR; as MrMango says, it is from a Carlin routine. But there is a Toad Suck Park.
And as he says, plenty of water, reliable electric outside of occasional winter ice storms/high wind thunderstorms/tornados. But a short term power outage can be worked around. Dwindling water supply is another matter.
Uruguay or Argentina for me
ASH, native of the latter – sadly, I’d recommend the former.
Wasn’t always like that, but it is now. And Arg has made it very, very difficult to move there. Full covid hysteria. Much easier in Uruguay, and it’s a jewel of a little country.
South and Central American cities are way too violent. You’ll live there in really gated and razor fenzed communities with armed guards. Your kids will need to be escorted to the school with a guard. Constantly worrying about kidnapping. Middle class life is very challenging there. You are a target to various criminal elements there and the cops are not much better.
Of course if you are poor then it is easier once the locals find out you are just another broke ass dude like them 🙂 Could be really enjoyable, they are nice people once you speak Spanish or Portuguese.
South East Asian countries are much better, not so much random, armed robbery kind of violence there.
you can move anywhere you like, but US citizens still pay taxes on worldwide income, with certain exemptions. worth figuring out.
All the countries have move to websites available and companies that will give a 3-4 day indoctrination on what it takes. Google move to Mexico for example.
Guadalajara has a nearby community called Ajijic that is almost 100% American expats and a very nice climate.
Try you tube as well, lots of info.
Ajijic’s full now I think. I was looking into it about 1.5 years ago…
John, been there. Guadalajara is a beautiful, civilized city – by Mexican standards. The whole state of Jalisco was like that.
It’s gone downhill. As in, beheadings are common. Not recommended.
Beheadings and other barbarisms have become a hallmark of drug cartel violence in the northern Mexican states abutting the U.S. southern border. One wonders how long it will take for such monstrosities to migrate into communities in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California now that the Biden Regime is striving with all of its energy to permanently dissolve our border with Mexico?
And that senile old fart in the White House wonders why any American owns, or feels that he or she needs to own, an AR rifle or other firearms for personal protection. Amazing stupidity has completely overwhelmed 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue since January 20th of this year.

I hope you are able to make the trip.
amb, from my experience: avoid Belize. CR or Ecuador are OK. But it takes years to settle into a place, learn the language, develop contacts and be able to navigate it.
FL has gotten very expensive. I know, I’m here, been here for decades.
Perhaps a rural area of CA would be best for you if you’re in a big city in CA. Big cities are to be avoided.
What part of Florida?

Click link to see video.
A bill in the California legislature seeks to ban anti-vaccine protests outside of vaccination sites including hospitals and doctor’s offices. Protesters would face six months of imprisonment and a fine if the bill passes into law. Freedom protesters including doctors and nurses have been peacefully demonstrating outside of hospitals recently, sparking panic among a globalist medical class that pushes the vaccination agenda at all cost. Can patriots in California stop the Senate bill SB 742 and protect some semblance of free speech in the G0lden State?
On August 19, SB 742 was placed in the legislature’s “Suspense File” category, which means the bill will be considered at a later date in a rapid-fire process alongside other bills that have been placed in the file for being fiscally significant to the state.
The bill states: “SECTION 1. Section 594.39 is added to the Penal Code, to read: 594.39. (a) It is unlawful to knowingly approach within 30 feet of any person while a person is making the approach within 100 feet of the entrance of a vaccination site and is seeking to enter or exit a vaccination site, or any occupied motor vehicle seeking entry or exit, for the purpose of obstructing, injuring, harassing, intimidating, or interfering with that person or vehicle occupant in connection with any vaccination services. (b) A violation of subdivision (a) is punishable by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding six months, or by both that fine and im

Everyone who gets it will die soon because that is what it is designed to do.
The eugenicists are thinning the herd and all the stupid people who take the jab will die.
It’s Malthusian! Dying will soon be more popular than screwing.
Ha!
If true, Malthuss, it will have to be due to long-term complications because despite many deaths and medical side-effects, most recipients seem to tolerate at least the initial jabs without dropping dead.
Despite my constant warnings, educational efforts, and repeated admonishments, my mother, my sister, and my brother-in-law have all succumbed to the latest fear porn and taken the vaccines in the past two weeks. All found the side effects of the first shot highly disagreeable, but all are also still upright and breathing. I pray they remain so, but continue to be convened about what may come further down the road for them.
Concerned, not convened.
Alabama passed legislation in May to prohibit any level of government in the state from issuing vaccine passports and further prohibiting any private business from asking about vaccination status or otherwise discriminating against members of the public who are unvaccinated.
Now we need a law prohibiting employer mandates.
So maybe Alabama will be the next Florida?
This explains why those with PhD or greater levels of comprehension are refusing to line up for the shot.

If going by education, the info. I saw was that it was those who had completed only high school or a GED and those who had at least one PhD that were most unlikely to be swayed.
The midwits are on board, because they were educated to serve the system.
Educated to serve all right.
The education simultaneously gives them the debt anchor and the key to earning servitude.
Middle-class conformity.

Oh, man.
100th-
Top notch, spot on stuff!
These kinds of comments are what make this board so great.
That is the outline of my biography!
Avatar, excellent and accurate. Bravo.
Night Owl: Agreed. The midwits are the most malleable because they enough brain cells to process the propaganda, but not enough to see through it. However, I know a lot of working class type people who know it’s all BS.
Linemen and contractors definitely know it’s all a scam.
Yes. Most of the working class who have worked right through all of this shit know it’s a scam. Most don’t have the luxury of saying that, though.
Every PhD I know is getting the jab, and worships Fauxi.
Darwin.
That is a fantastic speech by an expert. Thank you.
Brilliant presentation by the doctor. I see that the Leftist hive mind has swarmed YouTube with so-called rebuttals to this man’s cogent and articulate presentation. WrongThink MUST be suppressed, it would seem.
But….Truth crushed to earth will rise again.
In the long term, the truth will prevail. Reality will prevail.
FDA approval for these death concoctions are as predictable as a shoot up in Chicago’s Garfield Park at 2 a.m. Saturday.
The below quote is from 2017:
————–
“The FDA’s growing emphasis on speed has come at the urging of both patient advocacy groups and industry, which began in 1992 to contribute to the salaries of the agency’s drug reviewers in exchange for time limits on reviews. In 2017, pharma paid 75 percent — or $905 million — of the agency’s scientific review budgets for branded and generic drugs, compared to 27 percent in 1993.
‘The virginity was lost in ’92,’ said Dr. Jerry Avorn, a professor at Harvard Medical School. ‘Once you have that paying relationship, it creates a dynamic that’s not a healthy one.’
Industry also sways the FDA through a less direct financial route. Many of the physicians, caregivers, and other witnesses before FDA advisory panels that evaluate drugs receive consulting fees, expense payments, or other remuneration from pharma companies.
‘You know who never shows up at the [advisory committee]? The people who died in the trial,’ lamented one former FDA staffer.”
Soul F,
What is the source of that quote?
I would like to send it to my list.
How naive are people, to think that this approval means anything?
I certainly hope that the approval leads to a tidal wave of lawsuits aganst Pfizer, regardless of any deals made with the USG.
Has Congress voted on holding Pfizer and Moderna harmless (or whatever the term is)?
And why have they been given a monopoly?
Islander,
Here’s the link:
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/fda-increasingly-approves-drugs-without-conclusive-proof-they-work
the media need to be publicly de-legitimized somehow
“Transparency advocates have criticized the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) decision not to hold a formal advisory committee meeting to discuss Pfizer’s application for full approval of its covid-19 vaccine.”

Does anyone know why the government is mandating the shot for the military & health care workers? They must have the real stats on the side effects and disabilities that have resulted so far. What happens when everyone gets sick and there are no nurses? And then the military becomes non functional. What then?
They DGAF about them. The intent is to destroy institutions. No more FDA means you can sell whatever poison you can cook up in a bathtub.
Actually, they are doing that with the FDA.
They are improperly using the FDA as a tool. That tool has just been broken.
Dr W–
Even if they don’t give an eff about the people, who do they think is going to actually do the nursing and the fighting?
I mean, even the remaining 1%—after the Great Reset—will need militaries. Unless all of their infighting and jockeying for power is done via drones and video games . . .
I bet the Chinese are not jabbing their soldiers with mRNA spikes.
They don’t need our military right now. Why would they want to have it around in the future?
At this rate we won’t have a unified country for a military to defend anyway. What is the point? Time to simply band together and form independent localized security forces.
“They don’t need our military right now. Why would they want to have it around in the future?”
Dr,,
Tell the government to “get fucked” and stop paying your taxes….then see what happens….
Because the overall aim is to destroy America and the western way of life and replace with a few million helots ruled over by all powerful psychopaths. Anything that kills large numbers of plebs and disrupts the system is good news for the psychos. Obama tried to bring down America but was too stupid, arrogant and lazy to do the job. Now the globalists have figureheads in almost every government whom they can manipulate. When the military and healthcare staff go, society is well along the way to collapse. The good news is that many military personnel are resisting and 75% of nurses in NYC have refused the jab.
The military has drones and nukes. No need for boots on the ground anymore. Healthcare workers are expendable as well, as they don’t plan to take care of anyone during the next round anyway. Just die peacefully in place and the handful that are eventually left will either clean up the mess later or just cordon it off until all the body’s rot. Unless you’re occupying prime real estate, it won’t be an issue.
The ‘boots on the ground’ were to have been private armies – “The Private Army Formerly Known As Blackwater” – Erik Prince. Since the AFG debacle, I wonder how many mercs will trust these masters anymore.
Mercs are pretty flexible that way. Many that I’ve known do it just for the adventure and the green light to kill and maim shit. War booty’s often more valuable than dollar compensation as well.
Just die peacefully in place
That is the natural progression in their Orwellian instructions.
Homeland Security demand “shelter in place” and “Just die peacefully in place.”
BINGO!
———
Dis. nails it. People apply their normalcy basis and cannot imagine why “the elite” would want all this death and destruction. “It will destroy markets!”
Yes, it will. Like Heroin from Afghanistan, for example.
No-Go zones where/while millions of bodies rot will not affect “the elite” in the least. Billions will not be missed. TruStory
There is already a shortage of nurses all of whom have been fired or quit for refusing the jabs.
And many are ICU nurses who fought in the trenches a year ago on Covid wards.
I’ll betcha most of them have natural immunity but “the scientific authorities” refuse to recognize natural immunity (except Cleveland Clinic).
All these nurses should organize and bring class-action lawsuits.
“Does anyone know why the government is mandating the shot for the military & health care workers”
AreC,
You suppose that they will be given the same dose of the same substance as the general public.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
Here’s a good one: “100 Million Vaccine-Hesitant Americans Will Get The Shot Now That A Government Agency Said It’s OK”
https://babylonbee.com/news/100-million-vaccine-hesitant-americans-will-get-the-shot-now-that-a-government-agency-said-its-ok/
Nice. Sarcasm with no chaser.
Hahahaha! Love the Bee.
What does a man do when his spouse keeps nagging him to get jabbed?
They’re called spouses because they’re despousable
(joke) (sorta)
Oh Jeez. Yeah, sorta.
Tough one, Slugger.
I Believe that it has been easy (so far) to remain unjabbed. Now with FDA approval of Pfizer, it will be increasingly difficult to remain unjabbed while the poisoned are constantly brain-washed to blame the unjabbed for the “variants.”
Good luck & God bless.
She’s offering you the apple, Adam/Slub. Why not say no this time?
Ummmm….get a divorce if she doesn’t stop?
Terrifying and dazzling read.
(But Debbie’s feeling great! So we can all relax.)
Looks like a perfect storm is brewing. Multiple things are coming together at the same time and re-enforcing each other. Durham and the coming criminal indictments, the collapse of the COVID-19 hysteria, Afghanistan getting worse, a crash in the stock market, and election fraud revelations. This might even induce Biden/Harris to resign or cause them to make some horrendous mistake, like using a nuclear weapon. We’re in for a rough time.
It could go either way.
S&P500 and the NASDAQ are in all-time highs as I type this.
“Crisis? What crisis?”
“The captive news media — that is, the mainstream orgs owned by the Intel Community”
Are you sure it isn’t drug companies that own the media? Who pays the paper calls the tune. How many drug company commercials do you see on TV news shows? What are the chances that they will cut off their major source of advertising funding by reporting honestly on prescription drugs?
I see they’re even selling/pushing new tests for diseases I’ve never heard of as well. Drugs are not their real product; FEAR is. The cattle need to be afraid and medicated as they make their way up the chute.
Thousands of Afghan invaders already in DC:
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/thousands-afghan-refugees-landing-dulles-airport-question-whats-next-looms
This is simply the 21st century version of blockbusting.
In this version, these invaders will be shipped to red communities and fed all the gibs they can eat with the ultimate goal of turning these red areas purple, then blue to secure permanent Deep State rule.
Wow, and to think, those refugees don’t have to go through long lines of security checkpoints or submit to proof of vaccination. Man, if only flying domestically in our own country’s airspace was that easy!!!
I bet any money that all of these refugees being flown around kingdom come are going to cause a major spike in the Covid infection numbers. Bwahahahaha, exactly as the corporate elite and shadow government have planned.
Hope these invaders don’t get shipped to Duluth where they might try to tie little boys to beds as sex slaves.
“Welcome to Duluth MFer. Here’s how we roll here.”
KaBoom!!!!!
Somali tribesmen have their territory staked out in Minnesota, might be mixing it up with Afghan Tribesmen interlopers.
“A strange paralysis in the Pentagon has prevented the use of US power to clear an escape corridor to Kabul’s airport and establish order in the facility…”
It’s not bug but a feature. All to (further) make USA look foolish and weak on the World stage. Anything to tarnish the image of the United States and further alienate thinking people around the World who decide whether or not it’s a good idea to take up with certain people. The ‘paralysis’ is necessary to intensify this ongoing atrocity on multiple fronts.
“Covid-19 is an expedient device for exercising the most severe control over the daily life of Americans…”
Round #2 of “It’s not bug but a feature.” The elected official’s wet dream fulfilled of ultimate and unlimited power over other human beings.
“This week marks the beginning of the Deep State’s hard time. Its narratives are shredding. Its mind-control measures are slip-sliding away.”
The Deepest of the Deep State is never touched by anything. Their nests are feathered and well-protected. And no one even has a clear idea of what their damned names are. It’s only the low-hanging-fruit worker bees of Deep State that might be having a bumpy period. There’s three things you can always count on: Death, Taxes, and Deep State surviving and thriving. And look at that list. Seems to be some connections there?
Terry McAuliffe is running for Virginia Governor again. He has called upon all Virginia employers to mandate the vaccine to cause trouble for the unvaccinated. Hell of a guy! IMHO, you are a piece is shit McAuliffe. Why do you want to run for Virginia Governor again? Can’t you get a real job? Maybe some folks should cause him trouble. What a decent, wonderful guy he is. Makes you really want to see him back in office. F
Are they going to check your vaccination status if you show up in person at the polls to vote? I would think that would block some of their core demographic from voting in person, namely the Blacks and Latinos.
They don’t need real people voters. They have truckloads of already filled in paper ballots just waiting to be scanned!
Ugh.
Clinton toady, there is nothing lower.
Yep.
Wasn’t he the head of the Dem National Committee or something?
“McAuliffe was co-chair of President Bill Clinton’s 1996 re-election campaign,[2] chair of the Democratic National Committee from 2001 to 2005, and chair of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign. “
As ghoulish as it gets.

“It was after this that I began to wonder. If they’re that unformidable [sic], why bother to fight back? It’s very dangerous. It’s dangerous to challenge a system unless you’re completely at peace with the thought that you’re not going to miss it when it collapses. “

According to the FDA release today regarding Pfizer, it is apparently not “approved”, as all media outlets seem to be saying.
The wording appears to describe it as a reissuance of approval under Emergency Use Authorization, as well as approving EUA for younger kids, including those who have recently had organ transplants.
Sounds more to me like a sanctioned broadening of the “emergency experimentation”.
Page 2: On August 23, 2021, having concluded that revising this EUA is appropriate to protect the public health or safety under section 564(g)(2) of the Act, FDA is reissuing the August 12, 2021 letter of authorization in its entirety with revisions incorporated to clarify that the EUA will remain in place for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for the previously-authorized indication and uses, and to authorize use of COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) under this EUA for certain uses that are not included in the approved BLA.
Page 4: Having concluded that the criteria for issuance of this authorization under Section 564(c) of the Act are met, I am authorizing the emergency use of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID?19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19, as described in the Scope of Authorization section of this letter (Section II) and subject to the terms of this authorization. Additionally, as specified in subsection III.BB, I am authorizing use of COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) under this EUA when used to provide a two-dose regimen for individuals aged 12 through 15 years, or to provide a third dose to individuals 12 years of age or older who have undergone solid organ transplantation or who are diagnosed with conditions that are considered to have an equivalent level of immunocompromise.
Page 5: II. Scope of Authorization
I have concluded, pursuant to Section 564(d)(1) of the Act, that the scope of this authorization is limited as follows:
• Pfizer Inc. will supply Pfizer-BioNTech COVID?19 Vaccine either directly or through authorized distributor(s),11 to emergency response stakeholders12 as directed by the U.S.(/em>
It’s all a major PsyOps. They have lied to us enough times already, why should anyone believe that it has been “approved”? There is no way.
WHO chief also just called a moratorium on “boosters.”

Vaxx kills.
Irish GP explaining how the hospital is filling up with the jabbed there:
https://rumble.com/vlkh35-important.-irish-gp-speakes-out-about-what-she-is-seeing..html
Yep, she’ll be deep sixed by the powers that be. Sad but true, stiches for snitches.
“St Vincent’s hospital in Dublin is admitting a “worrying” number of double-vaccinated patients for treatment for Covid-19, emergency department head Professor John Ryan has said.”
https://twitter.com/Independent_ie/status/1429473696742354947
So it begins.
Yes, it’s already a massive mess. Bloomberg, Yahoo and MSN have published articles saying it’s the vaxxed who are getting sick and filling the hospitals. So, of course, it was a good time to make the jab ‘official’ and approve it.
Re Irish GP—
Powerful.
I wish she had spoken a bit louder or turned up her mike.
Very hard to make out.
But I got the message.
People don’t know how to record. It’s a learned thing.
She’s been suspended. Complaints by colleagues and the public about ‘misinformation’ etc.
Another friend posted something similar on Telegram just now.
The MSM just stirrin’ shit up.
Well, it’s supposed to be approved over Labor day so … not much diff?
And yet, POTATUS came out and said it’s been approved.
The lies never stop.
Well, there are at least three stories at Zero Hedge with headlines announcing “full approval” of vaccines by FDA.
And truly horrifying crackdowns in NJ and NY on teachers and other employees of the DoE, plus public universities, etc.
The world has gone mad.
I hope the teachers stand up for themselves and their union stands up for members. Why else be in a union?
The Teachers Union has a $$$ to lauch legal challenges to this mania.
Legal challenges? LOL.
The WEF crowd has handicapped the judiciary in most of the West.
There was a fairly significant occurence on the 50th anniversary of the gold window closing.
There are nineteen days to another anniversary. Do you believe nothing is scripted for that day?
if you have not steeled yourself to the task at hand, you never will
to this commenter: “I have nothing to be ashamed of.” Deliberate ignorance is not ignorance, it is arrogance. On the same page as Madeleine Albright are you? A psycopath is incapable of remorse and exhibits bold, disinhibited, and egotistical traits. Put your shoe on asshole.
