Bill Gates-Funded Company Releases Genetically Modified Mosquitoes In US

Submitted by Epoch Times

Genetically modified mosquitoes have been released for the first time in the United States as part of an experiment to combat insect-borne diseases such as Dengue fever, yellow fever, and the Zika virus.

UK-based biotechnology firm Oxitec, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, said it released the mosquitoes in six locations in Monroe County’s Florida Keys: two on Cudjoe Key, one on Ramrod Key, and three on Vaca Key. It’s part of an effort to help tackle a disease-transmitting invasive mosquito population—the Aedes aegypti mosquito species—that’s responsible for “virtually all mosquito-borne diseases transmitted to humans,” according to the company.

These mosquitoes make up about 4 percent of the mosquito population in the Keys, and transmit dengue, Zika, yellow fever, and other human diseases, as well as heartworm and other potentially deadly diseases to pets and other animals.

The experiment is in collaboration with the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD), and was approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and an independent advisory board.

Over the next 12 weeks, fewer than 12,000 mosquitoes are expected to emerge each week, for approximately 12 weeks. Untreated comparison sites will be monitored with mosquito traps on Key Colony Beach, Little Torch Key, and Summerland Key. If successful, some 20 million additional genetically modified mosquitoes will be released later in the year.

“We really started looking at this about a decade ago, because we were in the middle of a dengue fever outbreak here in the Florida Keys,” FKMCD Executive Director Andrea Leal said during a video news conference. “So we’re just very excited to move forward with this partnership, working both with Oxitec and members of the community.”

The insects released by the biotechnology firm are all male, so they don’t bite. They’re expected to mate with the local biting female mosquitoes, and in doing so, they will pass on a lethal gene that will ensure their female offspring die before reaching maturity.

According to Quartz, areas including Malaysia, Brazil, the Cayman Islands, and Panama, where similar experiments have been carried out, have seen mosquito populations drop by as much as 90 percent.

The project has faced backlash from residents, who say their consent was not sought for the experiment.

America is Terminal, You are Not

ORIGINAL LINK

Guest Post by Freed Radical

You probably know somebody who has legitimately died of covid. Trouble breathing, a trip to the ER in an ambulance, transfer to ICU. Then the most ominous word of 2020, ventilator. They may as well name it the terminal ventilator because that’s generally the last stop before the bright white light and pearly gates.

There are terms similar to ventilator that apply to America, terms carrying the implicit adjective terminal. You’ve heard them, debt, unfunded liabilities, educational failure, moral decay, government dependency, cancel culture, and so forth. Most of these rots have been with us for a long, long time, to the point that every limb is gangrenous, every digit black. Some are more recent, fast acting rot. The whole of America is a weeping pustule of liberal consequences.

The net result is that America is terminal. Our friend the late Rush Limbaugh would have never let those words escape his lips, though he got close in his last year on the radio. But as citizens of Realville we have to face the facts. The socialists and liberals, and even communists from across the water have poisoned America to the point it is certain to die. The Federal Reserve has cranked up its ventilator, unlimited money printing. That’s like showing up at a hospice ward with a basketful of gummy bear meth tablets. “Fun for everybody!” Yes, it’s that kind of abomination.

The principles America was founded upon are not sick and dying. Rather America has been lured away from those principles and seduced with the meth of unlimited spending, dependent constituencies, and political power whores. America, once dead, can be resurrected using founding principles. But it’s going to take total death to rid America of this terminal illness. Fortunately, the parasites have no restraint and will soon complete the deed, after which good people can start over. No, it’s not going to be neat and pretty.

Let’s look at some terminal categories, while we sit by America the Beautiful’s bed and hold her hand, waiting for her to croak.

Financial

Have you noticed that most talk of budgets, deficits, and debt has quietly disappeared from mainstream media? The Federal Reserve is pumping meth liquidity into the economy as fast as it can. Our national debt curve has gone vertical, standing at around 27,000,000,000,000 dollars! One light-year is about 6 trillion miles, so if every mile were a dollar, we’d be out past Alpha Centauri by now, at 4 light-years. Who says interstellar travel is impossible?

All pretense of fiscal restraint is gone. I knew this guy when I was young and foolish, and he’d stop drinking after about two six packs, protesting that he did not want to go too far. We are way beyond that point in America! We’re in drink-yourself-to-death territory, but with dollars. Cirrhosis of the budget.

The politicians are using whatever crisis of the day presents itself to buy more votes, pay off more corporations, and s(t)eal their reelections. This of course involves promising more and more money to groups, knowing that we have zero way of keeping those commitments. The old folks’ Social Security payments are one of the gangrenous digits. I hope that one does not fall off and leave you sailing over the fiscal cliff. But it probably will, unless you prepare.

It is now obvious that our political leaders have zero intention of ever paying off, or paying down the debt. America has been running an interest-only mortgage on our future for a century, even paying the interest with borrowed money.

As the stimulus payments fatten my bank account, I no longer curse the losers in DC. It’s too late. I may as well take the money and spend it on tangibles, precious metals, food, medicines, and guns and ammo while I can, because those are the only things that are going to be worth anything in a few years. Same for your Social Security check, or whatever bribe you are getting from the government. Use it against them to make more certain the resurrection of America.

Just to keep this from getting too dark, can we stop for a moment of silence for Bernie Madoff, who died in prison for the daring ponzi scheme he ran on Wall Street? This is the fate of all the financial hacks who are running America. There is a cosmic law of sowing and reaping which will have its due, piling Hell plum full of unrepentant thieves, some in hoodies, some in business suits. Do you smell smoke?

Sorry, I guess that was still pretty dark.

Educational

I have some experience in education, beyond my own time in public schools. Over time, our educational system has transitioned from mediocre to hideous. Many a textbook is packed with liberal garbage. A seventh grade math text I taught from contained an advertisement for PETA, with a mailing address for donations! It also featured a bio of Henry Cisneros, the disgraced Clinton administration official. The vast majority of teachers have been indoctrinated in and regurgitate liberal garbage. Not only that, they believe it. The current sickness of critical race theory is only the latest example, and there will be worse to follow.

People who are educated to be idiots cannot be good citizens. Our students graduate not knowing even the most basic principles of math, language, science, and certainly not civics. Not only that, it’s the goal of liberalism to produce a population of mindless droids. And they have succeeded.

In Virginia, there is outrage about the possible elimination of advanced math courses in the name of equity. Parents are outraged. Citizens are outraged. Several dead possums are outraged. But I have a news flash for you, the kids do not need competently taught advanced math courses. They need competently taught basic math courses. High school students today take statistics, pre-calc, calculus, geometry, honors-this and honors-that, but they still count on their fingers. In the millenial vernacular: They. Don’t. Even. Know. Arithmetic. It gets comical when they have to add two numbers greater than ten. When they run out of fingers… They. Just. Give. Up. Mostly, the advanced math courses are a waste of time because when you don’t understand what multiplication is, you cannot understand trigonometry.

A teacher came to my place for dinner one night with her husband. In the course of making conversation, I naively said, “So, how’s work?” Big mistake! What ensued was a half hour of tense complaining, about the administration, the parents, the students, the paperwork, the other teachers, the working hours, the pay, and on and on. I’ll tell you what, I received a big education that evening. One of the critically important things she told me is that the administration tells the teachers to teach to the middle of the bell curve. Ignore the top 10% and bottom 10%. Crowd everybody else in the middle. I have experienced this first hand, being on the very top, and the very bottom in various courses in public school, and being ignored. Have you experienced this? What a waste of the brightest minds, a write-off of failing kids who could be salvaged, and the channeling of everybody else into the sheep chute.

The youth embody the energy and drive to lead any society forward, and without that, society lags and falters. Welcome to lagging and faltering. When I see young people oblivious to reality, vacant eyes glued to the stream of vacuous junk emanating from their phones, and the waste of lives, it crushes my spirit. The liberals have destroyed an entire generation (actually several) with lying fact checkers, left wing memes and porn. Their falling IQ tracks their failing sperm count. Their phones are educational and chemical castration devices.

Of course, there are some youth who inspire, but they are few and far between. I wish there were more, and I dump intellectual and spiritual gasoline on every spark I see. But it’s real hard to start a forest fire in a swamp.

Without a vibrant, moral, educated, inquisitive youth, pushing limits and stretching boundaries, America is terminal.

Governmental

We’re beyond tragedy in American government. We have wrapped around to comedy. I read great articles on TBP every day decrying the tragedy of corrupt government, corrupt politicians, corrupt justice, and on and on. We have gotten to the point where it’s just falling on your butt funny, and I am sometimes embarrassed to be laughing when I should be crying. The buffoons and boobs who run the government are the best we have to field, apparently. For example, Dr. Jocelyn Elder told us, in the Clinton administration, that we need safer guns and safer bullets. Congressman Hank Johnson grilled a Navy Admiral about whether Guam would tip over and capsize when more Marines were stationed there. Dr. Fauxci says, masks, no masks, two masks, mask + vax, and on and on. I have a hard time telling the difference between AOC memes and her real quotes. A total joke. All these governmental hacks are dropped out of the same mold. There are numerous videos showing the utter cranial bankruptcy of our political leaders.

There’s no salvaging our government, bureaucracy, body of laws, or systems. There comes a time when the weeping pustule has to be lanced, or be allowed to kill its host to be composted and recycled into new life. We have reached that time.

Don’t take them seriously, for that really annoys the hell out of them! Don’t argue issues with them, for they are beyond logic and reason. Laugh in their faces. We know their end, and their fate. They are integral to a dying system. Laugh in their faces.

Moral

What could be a better definition for a suicidal nation other than it castrates it males? That very thing is happening in America in so many ways. I mentioned porn as an avenue to effective castration of men. Young men are apparently so sexually gratified with their phones that they have little use for women. Young women complain of the lack of quality men. Well, the hetero ones do anyway.

Parents, schools, and doctors are eager to change little boys into little girls, poisoning them with hormone treatments, with the only guarantee being lifelong sterility.

How can any country survive this level of moral decay? I seriously doubt the founding fathers foresaw this evil in their worst nightmares. No, our generations own this rot.

Our Constitution is suited only to a moral people. Unfortunately, our amoral people do not find value in the Constitution, and they make law and custom moving off in obscure directions where we will only find destruction. Our Constitution is not in effect today, but the immoral tenets of liberalism rule in its place. If you attempt to exercise your free speech rights on the street, you’ll be assaulted, but if you dress like a circus whore and twerk in an elementary school, you are a pioneer of freedom.

How can this alone not result in the death of America?

Dependency

There are about 150 million people dependent on the government for their daily bread and circus. That’s a huge future problem for the socialist government because if capitalism cannot feed them without literally a trillion dollars of deficits every year, then certainly socialism is not going to feed them. Fortunately for the commies, the dependents are only needed to vote for bigger government until government is so big that voting devolves into a banana republic show where el Presidente receives 95% of the vote, with 95% turnout. We’re almost there. At that point, expect a real pandemic, alien invasion, or some such depopulation extravaganza.

I had a neighbor who owned a Caterpillar loader, and the state would call him to plow roads after deep snowfalls. If you own such heavy equipment, your number will be on government speed dial once depopulation reaches full swing, but you are not going to be pushing snow.

Either way, now with or then without the dependents, the America we knew is headed to the mass grave.

Intellectual

Trust the science.” That was the sucker line to get us to submit to the covid lockdowns. And scientists lined up to support the hoax and receive their grants and extensions of funding.

When principle bows to the government check, then everything resting on principle collapses. Everything.

I no longer trust the science because the science is being paid for by the government, pharmaceutical companies, or some other industrial concern with a financial interest in a particular outcome. The more letters you sign after your name, the less I trust you.

In the 1980’s, I joined a professional organization because it looked good on my resume. But I soon realized that the organization’s high dues were high because they were paid by employers. The people running the organization were middle and upper managers of the companies floating all the dues. Then I noticed the organization was shilling for guest visa increases, to bump up the supply of cheap, highly educated labor from other countries. At no time did any of the officers of this organization appear before Congress to advocate higher wages for me, or anyone, or to increase the stature of the profession. No, they were there only for the companies who paid the dues and sponsored the conferences, to actually depress wages. My last membership expired during the Reagan administration, if I remember correctly.

This science prostitution is certainly nothing new, but it is so blatant now. I cannot trust what any paid professional says, without additional verification. Several times I have independently researched a medication or procedure only to find some critical information the doctors withheld. I know the doctors despise Internet medical sources, but they at least gives laypeople some questions to ask. An elderly relative’s heart stopped due to a medication side effect, and I was the one to inform the cardiologist, who promptly stopped a different medication, until the next day when we had a second discussion. I should have been a doctor; at least I can read a package insert.

Not only are the intellectuals (legally) on the take, but many of them are intellectually deficient. I have taken business from several PhD’s over the years as customers came to me to fix problems they created through lack of experience or ego-centered inaction. I suppose if the high school graduates of 2020 are inferior to the graduates of 1960, then the same must be true of the PhD’s.

One has to wonder how today’s world can continue its technological advancement. In the 1950’s and 1960’s, the post-WWII generation put men on the moon (or a Nevada sound stage) with less computing power than you have in your cell phone. They would have killed for just one of those phones (minus the pig operating system). The post-WWI engineers built WWII aircraft carriers with no computing power whatsoever. Tour one of those old ships and marvel at the sheer volume of piping, all designed and laid out by hand on paper, with little more than a slide rule and some engineering tables.

Today, intellect has been divorced from morality. Contract scientists and engineers design the government’s next weapon systems with no concern for how they will be used. Contractors are sucking up all our private information and serving it to the government on a platter. The corruption of science is complete, now with human/animal hybrid experimentation, certainly plus a load of other stupidity that is classified.

When the brightest minds in a country will do anything for a buck, how long can it live?

Every Other Sector

There are so many other categories of decay, we could go on for weeks. Rather than do that, I refer you to the entire content of TBP back to its inception. And 99% of conservative writings. There’s no lack of documentation, no lack of awareness, and I only did this short survey for the stick-it-to-em-again readers who can’t get enough of snorting the straight truth. There you go.

But there is one more…

Your Family

Get your hand off that bottle of antidepressants from 2020, this is actually an article of hope!

Your family, conservative, is the last healthy flesh on America’s bones. You have a budget and you stick to it. You know how to read a book, and you actually read books. Shoot, you know how to write a book. You have morals, and know how to keep your pants on in the presence of good looking people of any of 97.3 genders. You don’t listen to idiot media. You know what 9×6 is from memory, and you see the government for the destroyer of freedom that it is.

Please, please, prepare your family to survive America’s trip to the morgue. Store food, water, supplies, and build skilled community in your area. There are many, many like minded people you will find, once you start the conversation. I’m counting on you to survive!

While America is terminal, you are not terminal! You are the last repository of intelligence, virtue, and decency. There are literally no other people on Earth to move humanity forward, none other than freedom loving people of all languages and lineage. You reject the evil that is spewed at us from the weeping pustule of liberalism, 24 hours a day. You embrace the truth. You live freedom. The fool’s drama we today call America will not survive, but you and the principles of America will survive, to be reborn in new generations who, for another couple hundred years, will enjoy its benefits. We are on a roller coaster moving from freedom to complacency to slavery to revolution back to freedom, and our moment is now, where we reject the slavery imposed on us and take back our freedom.

We have no need of a ventilator, medical or financial or otherwise. We rather are the organism that invigorates this planet, and beats back the forces of death that would enslave us all.

This is our moment. Let the terminal die. We are not terminal, we live!

Kansas City Follows West Coast Progressives In Building Village For Homeless 

ORIGINAL LINK
Kansas City Follows West Coast Progressives In Building Village For Homeless 

Progress politicians have been pitching free public housing for years as a cure for housing, wealth, and all sorts of other inequalities. Several West Coast cities have implemented housing first initiatives, with taxpayers shelling out more than one billion dollars in the last half-decade. Years later, the attempt to break the homeless in perpetuity hasn't worked out exactly as politicians promised. 

Ignoring the failures on the West Coast, Kansas City leaders have been exploring a similar housing first initiative for residents experiencing homelessness.

According to The Kansas City Star, Kansas City officials are considering a "150-bed village" almost like the "Hoovervilles" of the 1930s Great Depression. If built, maybe the village should be called "Bidenville." 

Here's an example of one of the tiny homes classy sheds. 

Local officials have yet to decide on the exact location of the new homeless village and provided limited details about the construction.

Last week, Mayor Quinton Lucas said the homeless village would support Kansas City's homeless population by allowing them "a sense of dignity and pride in housing options." 

"We've recognized for too long — for years, for generations — we have not done enough," Lucas said. "We have not done enough to be creative. We have not done enough to help people get back on their feet."

"Kansas City is not looking the other way anymore," the mayor added.

We've seen this story before. West Coast politicians, especially in San Francisco and Los Angeles, have made grand announcements about solving homelessness through housing first initiatives, but none seem to be working. 

Touted by influential political leaders, activists, and media outlets in Los Angeles, the simple solution was to build more housing for the homeless. Five years later, a billion dollars down the drain, the project has been plagued by construction delays, massive cost overruns, and accusations of corruption. 

Meanwhile, unsheltered homelessness jumped 41%, vastly outpacing the construction of new supportive housing units. Streets are also becoming more dangerous, drug use is skyrocketing, and public disorder is out of control. 

Without acknowledging success, Los Angeles recently called for more shelters for the entire homeless population of skid row by October. A similar story is also playing out in San Francisco

So back to Kansas City, as if officials there have yet to publicly acknowledge the failures of the housing first initiatives on the West Coast - it appears they are diving headfirst into a destructive policy. 

But again, none of that matters when City Manager Brian Platt said the housing project would be partially funded with federal stimulus. 

Platt said, "This is a big part of that recovery and relief for people in the city."  

On top of the funding for the homeless village, the federal government is also paying people not to work. This is not a recovery - this is the nation diving into socialism.

Aldous Huxley Foresaw Our Despots - Fauci, Gates, & The Vaccine Crusaders

ORIGINAL LINK
Aldous Huxley Foresaw Our Despots - Fauci, Gates, & The Vaccine Crusaders

Authored by Patricia McCarthy via AmericanThinker.com,

In 1949, sometime after the publication of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, Aldous Huxley, the author of Brave New World (1931), who was then living in California, wrote to Orwell.  Huxley had briefly taught French to Orwell as a student in high school at Eton.

Huxley generally praises Orwell's novel, which to many seemed very similar to Brave New World in its dystopian view of a possible future.  Huxley politely voices his opinion that his own version of what might come to pass would be truer than Orwell's.  Huxley observed that the philosophy of the ruling minority in Nineteen Eighty-Four is sadism, whereas his own version is more likely, that controlling an ignorant and unsuspecting public would be less arduous, less wasteful by other means.  Huxley's masses are seduced by a mind-numbing drug, Orwell's with sadism and fear. 

The most powerful quote In Huxley's letter to Orwell is this: 

Within the next generation I believe that the world's rulers will discover that infant conditioning and narco-hypnosis are more efficient, as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons, and that the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging and kicking them into obedience.


Aldous Huxley.

Could Huxley have more prescient?  What do we see around us?  

Masses of people dependent upon drugs, legal and illegal.  The majority of advertisements that air on television seem to be for prescription drugs, some of them miraculous but most of them unnecessary.  Then comes COVID, a quite possibly weaponized virus from the Fauci-funded-with-taxpayer-dollars lab in Wuhan, China.  The powers that be tragically deferred to the malevolent Fauci who had long been hoping for just such an opportunity.  Suddenly, there was an opportunity to test the mRNA vaccines that had been in the works for nearly twenty years.  They could be authorized as an emergency measure but were still highly experimental.  These jabs are not really vaccines at all, but a form of gene therapy.  There are potential disastrous consequences down the road.  Government experiments on the public are nothing new.

Since there have been no actual, long-term trials, no one who contributed to this massive drug experiment knows what the long-term consequences might be.  There have been countless adverse injuries and deaths already for which the government-funded vaccine producers will suffer no liability.  With each passing day, new side-effects have begun to appear: blood clots, seizures, heart failure.

As new adverse reactions become known despite the censorship employed by most media outlets, the more the Biden administration is pushing the vaccine, urging private corporations to make it mandatory for all employees.  Colleges are making them mandatory for all students returning to campus.

The leftmedia are advocating the "shunning" of the unvaccinated.  The self-appointed virtue-signaling Democrats are furious at anyone and everyone who declines the jab.  Why?  If they are protected, why do they care?  That is the question.  Same goes for the ridiculous mask requirements.  They protect no one but for those in operating rooms with their insides exposed, yet even the vaccinated are supposed to wear them!

Months ago, herd immunity was near.  Now Fauci and the CDC say it will never be achieved?  Now the Pfizer shot will necessitate yearly booster shots.  Pfizer expects to make $21B this year from its COVID vaccine!  Anyone who thinks this isn't about money is a fool.  It is all about money, which is why Fauci, Gates, et al. were so determined to convince the public that HCQ and ivermectin, both of which are effective, prophylactically and as treatment, were not only useless, but dangerous.  Both of those drugs are tried, true, and inexpensive.  Many of those thousands of N.Y. nursing home fatalities might have been prevented with the use of one or both of those drugs.  Those deaths are on the hands of Cuomo and his like-minded tyrants drunk on power.

Months ago, Fauci, et al. agreed that children were at little or no risk of getting COVID, of transmitting it, least of all dying from it.  Now Fauci is demanding that all teens be vaccinated by the end of the year!  Why?  They are no more in danger of contracting it now than they were a year ago.  Why are parents around this country not standing up to prevent their kids from being guinea pigs in this monstrous medical experiment?  And now they are "experimenting" on infants.  Needless to say, some have died.  There is no reason on Earth for teens, children, and infants to be vaccinated.  Not one. 

Huxley also wrote this:

"The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone.  To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation' — this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats." 

- Crome Yellow

Perhaps this explains the left's hysterical impulse to force these untested shots on those of us who have made the decision to go without it.  If they've decided that it is the thing to do, then all of us must submit to their whims.  If we decide otherwise, it gives them the righteous right to smear all of us whom they already deplore.

As C.J. Hopkins has written, the left means to criminalize dissent.  Those of us who are vaccine-resistant are soon to be outcasts, deprived of jobs and entry into everyday businesses.  This kind of discrimination should remind everyone of ...oh, Germany three quarters of a century ago.  Huxley also wrote, "The propagandist's purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human."  That is precisely what the left is up to, what BLM is planning, what Critical Race Theory is all about. 

Tal Zaks, Moderna's chief medical officer, said these new vaccines are "hacking the software of life."  Vaccine-promoters claim he never said this, but he did.  Bill Gates called the vaccines "an operating system" to the horror of those promoting it, a Kinsley gaffe.  Whether it is or isn't hardly matters at this point, but these statements by those behind the vaccines are a clue to what they have in mind. 

There will be in the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them but will rather enjoy it.

This is exactly what the left is working so hard to effect: a pharmacologically compromised population happy to be taken care of by a massive state machine.  And while millions of people around the world have surrendered to the vaccine and mask hysteria, millions more, about 1.3 billion, want no part of this government vaccine mania.

In his letter to Orwell, Huxley ended with the quote cited above and again here because it is so profound:

Within the next generation I believe that the world's rulers will discover that infant conditioning and narco-hypnosis are more efficient, as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons, and that the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging and kicking them into obedience.

Huxley nailed the left more than seventy years ago, perhaps because leftists have never changed throughout the ages.

Covid Has Triggered The Next Great Financial Crisis

ORIGINAL LINK
What's left are the 'fatal synergies' of soaring debt and leverage, diminishing returns on stimulus, the substitution of credit for savings and the coming deflationary tsunami that pops all the speculative bubbles.

Imagine a once modest but sturdy home built near a cliff to maximize the vistas. Over the decades, the foundation slowly degraded and the house moved imperceptibly closer to the unstable edge of the cliff. Those who observed the slippage and the potential for eventual disaster were either derided as alarmists or ignored.

Given the enviable location and views, the home rose in value and a series of increasingly gaudy additions were added, completely obscuring the once-modest exterior with cheap imitations of long-lasting, time-tested materials (plastic trim and brittle fake-marble veneers). The foundations of these ostentatious additions were slapdash, shallow and poorly made, as the goal was not durability but appearance.

The low-quality additions accelerated the slide to the unstable cliff edge, and in 2019 the viewing deck broke away and crashed into the canyon below. The repairs were hasty and the residents were assured all was well--in fact, better than ever.

In 2020, the weak foundation of the gaudiest, lowest-quality addition crumbled. The response of the owners was to fill the widening crack in the decaying structure and spray on a new coat of paint. There--good as new, the residents were told.

But this was not true. The house is now teetering on the precariously unstable cliff edge. Ironically, the vast majority of the residents have moved to the game room, which is now cantilevered over thin air. The slightest movement will tip the entire decayed structure over the cliff.

That decayed, precariously unstable structure is the U.S. economy, and Covid was the catalyst that nudged the economy right to the edge. Gordon Long and I discuss the causes and consequences in our new video program, Covid Has Triggered The Next Great Financial Crisis (34:46).

Chief among the many causes is a very basic one that's easy to understand: America has consumed more than it has produced for decades, and filled the gap with imports purchased with borrowed money and currency created out of thin air.

As Gordon and I explain, this is a very well-worn path to instability and collapse:governments (which now include nominally independent central banks) have always responded to declines in productivity and affordable energy/materials, the expansion of a parasitic elite and excessive spending with the same bag of financial tricks:

1. They borrow more money, eventually borrowing more to pay interest on existing debts, greasing the slide to default and insolvency.

2. They defraud the users of their currency by devaluing the currency. In the old days, this was accomplished by substituting base metals for silver or gold in the minting of coinage. Eventually the coins contained only a trace of silver. Users soon caught on and the result was the coinage lost purchasing power, a.k.a. inflation destroyed the value of the officially issued money.

In today's fiat currency regime, central banks create trillions of new units of "money" with a few keystrokes, effectively diluting the value of all existing currency.

3. Desperate for revenues, governments raise taxes, which despite all claims to the contrary by political leaders, fall most heavily on the productive middle class. Since the parasitic elite will never accept any consequential reduction of their wealth or power, the higher taxes and economic stagnation that result from these three policies crush the middle class, which was the engine of productivity and demand that enabled the parasitic elite to live large.

These are key dynamics in what Gordon calls the killing of the golden goose, the productive synergies that generate widespread prosperity and opportunity.

What's left are the fatal synergies of soaring debt and leverage, diminishing returns on stimulus, the substitution of credit for savings and the coming deflationary tsunami (53 min) that pops all the speculative bubbles, setting up the destabilization and cliff-dive of the entire decayed, flimsy structure--The Next Great Financial Crisis that cannot be papered over with more central bank legerdemain.

There's more in our 34-minute video program:

My head has been spinning for a year, as I’ve tried to work out how a coordinated global fraud of such a vastness as COVID-19, involving so many different sectors and jurisdictions could’ve been pulled off.

ORIGINAL LINK

A Vaxxing Question

ORIGINAL LINK

LRC-share.jpg

In 1956 German pharmaceutical company Chemie Grünenthal GmbH, licensed a new experimental drug designed to treat colds, flu, nausea and morning sickness. Known as Distaval in the UK, Distillers Biochemicals Ltd declared the drug could ‘be given with complete safety to pregnant women and nursing mothers without adverse effect on mother or child’ – a basic pre-requisite for licensing a drug.

While forty-nine countries licensed the drug under multiple different names, the then head of the FDA Dr. Frances Kelsey, a physician-pharmacologist with a profound interest in fetal development, refused authorization for use in the US market due to her concerns about the lack of evidence regarding the drug’s safety.

The drug was also known as Thalidomide.

Sixty-five years on and the stringent safety measures brought in to avoid another scandal on the scale of Thalidomide have been swept aside in order to fast track the approval of experimental mRNA vaccines. This is in spite of concerns voiced by (among others) Dr Wolfgang Wodarg and Dr Michael Yeadon who petitioned the European Medical Agency (EMA) with a Administrative/Regulatory Stay Of Action in regard to the BioNtech/Pfizer study on BNT162b – not just in regard to concerns about pregnant women, the foetus and infertility – but also in regard to the effect of the mRNA vaccines on those with prior immunity, for whom immunization could lead to a hyperinflammatory response, a cytokine storm, and a generally dysregulation of the immune system that allows the virus to cause more damage to their lungs and other organs of their body.

No previous research into treating illness or disease with messenger RNA or mRNA vaccines has been successful and this is the first time mRNA vaccines have been used on humans.

The concerns of Yeadon, Wodarg and others appear to be borne out by data from the King’s College Zoe app that records adverse events from the mRNA vaccines. Taken from a pool of 700,000, data reveals that 12.2% of those vaccinated with the Pfizer jab experienced adverse events or side effects, a number which tripled to 35.7% for those with prior immunity. Adverse events from the Oxford/AstraZeneca jab were already high at 31.9% but increased to 52.7% for people with immunity.

Ellie Barnes, professor of hepatology and immunology at Oxford University and a member of the UK Coronavirus Immunology Consortium referred to the discovery – that when you’ve had a COVID-19 infection your T-cells become activated and become memory T cells – as ‘emerging’ as though this was something revelatory. Yet the dangers of over-immunization had been flagged up multiple times and well before vaccine rollout.

It gets worse.

In spite of additional research from New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital and the University of Maryland which indicated that those who had previously developed Covid-19 were effectively already immune and wouldn’t need a second dose (arguably they didn’t need the first dose if they already had immunity), Eleanor Riley, professor of infectious diseases at Edinburgh University said that ‘Incorporating this into a mass vaccination program, may be logistically complex’, adding ‘it may be safer overall to ensure everyone gets two doses’.

May be safer? Many in the study group had already had an adverse event from the first dose, so how could it be ‘safer’ when second doses have been shown to increase the adversity of an event.

And how is it logistically complex to notify those who have already experienced an adverse event? The medical data of the 700,000 patients has already been logged into the Zoe App system, otherwise the Zoe App wouldn’t be able to differentiate between those with or without prior immunity. Therefore, those with prior immunity from having had Covid-19 – or those for whom an adverse event would perhaps indicate prior immunity – can be notified that there is no need for a second dose.

Moreover, why on earth aren’t people tested for prior immunity before taking any vaccination considering the concerns associated with over-immunization?

Alarming data is also emerging from the Yellow Card Scheme.

A Software Company Comes Up With a Brilliant Corporate Speech Policy

ORIGINAL LINK

Basecamp is remote work software that provides a single online environment in which workers on a single project can consolidate everything they do on that project.  No matter where you are, there’s a virtual meeting space in cyberspace.  That’s pretty cool.  What’s really cool about Basecamp, though, is its CEO’s new rule: people may not discuss politics at work.  With that single announcement, a third of the workforce quit.  Other American corporations should follow suit.

After “a contentious all-hands meeting,” the Basecamp CEO and one of its founders, Jason Fried, posted a lengthy statement online detailing the new policies that he and David Hansson, a Basecamp founder and partner, had reached.  (Note: As a private corporation, Basecamp can impose speech policies on its employees.)  Here are the core parts (and except for the first sentence, bolded emphasis is mine):

1. No more societal and political discussions on our company Basecamp account. Today’s social and political waters are especially choppy. Sensitivities are at 11, and every discussion remotely related to politics, advocacy, or society at large quickly spins away from pleasantYou shouldn’t have to wonder if staying out of it means you’re complicit, or wading into it means you’re a target. These are difficult enough waters to navigate in life, but significantly more so at work. It’s become too much. It’s a major distraction. It saps our energy, and redirects our dialog towards dark places. It’s not healthy, it hasn’t served us well. And we’re done with it on our company Basecamp account where the work happens. People can take the conversations with willing co-workers to Signal, Whatsapp, or even a personal Basecamp account, but it can’t happen where the work happens anymore. Update: David has shared some more details and more of the internal announcement on his HEY World blog.

(I urge you to read David’s blog post, because it’s an excellent statement about how free speech should work in America.)

In addition to banning political talk in the workplace or over the workplace communication system, the company is turning away from the Silicon Valley trend of turning every workplace into an amusement park for overgrown children (except for the first sentence, bolded emphasis is mine):7_201_9.gif

2. No more paternalistic benefits. For years we’ve offered a fitness benefit, a wellness allowance, a farmer’s market share, and continuing education allowances. They felt good at the time, but we’ve had a change of heart. It’s none of our business what you do outside of work, and it’s not Basecamp’s place to encourage certain behaviors — regardless of good intention. By providing funds for certain things, we’re getting too deep into nudging people’s personal, individual choices. So we’ve ended these benefits, and, as compensation, paid every employee the full cash value of the benefits for this year. In addition, we recently introduced a 10% profit sharing plan to provide direct compensation that people can spend on whatever they’d like, privately, without company involvement or judgement.

Lastly, in the sixth numbered item, Fried reminds the employees that Basecamp’s purpose is to make “project management, team communication, and email software.  We are not a social impact company.  Our impact is contained to what we do and how we do it.”  As far as Basecamp leadership is concerned, “We don’t have to solve deep social problems, chime in publicly whenever the world requests our opinion on the major issues of the day, or get behind one movement or another with time or treasure.”

There are three other changes, but they’re very work-related, so they’re not relevant to this post.

Why I’m Removing All Articles Related to Vitamins D, C, Zinc and COVID-19

ORIGINAL LINK

Over the past year, I’ve been researching and writing as much as I can to help you take control of your health, as fearmongering media and corrupt politicians have destroyed lives and livelihoods to establish global control of the world’s population, using the COVID-19 pandemic as their justification.

I’ve also kept you informed about billionaire-backed front groups like the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), a partner of Bill Gates’ Alliance for Science, both of whom have led campaigns aimed at destroying my reputation and censoring the information I share.

Other attackers include HealthGuard, which ranks health sites based on a certain set of “credibility criteria.” It has sought to discredit my website by ensuring warnings appear whenever you search for my articles or enter my website in an internet browser.

Well-Organized Attack Partnerships Have Formed

HealthGuard, a niche service of NewsGuard, is funded by the pharma-funded public relations company Publicis Groupe. Publicis, in turn, is a partner of the World Economic Forum, which is leading the call for a “Great Reset” of the global economy and a complete overhaul of our way of life.

HealthGuard is also partnered with Gates’ Microsoft company, and drug advertising websites like WebMD and Medscape, as well as the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) — the progressive cancel-culture leader with extensive ties to government and global think tanks that recently labeled people questioning the COVID-19 vaccine as a national security threat.

The CCDH has published a hit list naming me as one of the top 12 individuals responsible for 65% of vaccine “disinformation” on social media, and who therefore must be deplatformed and silenced for the public good. In a March 24, 2021, letter1 to the CEO’s of Twitter and Facebook, 12 state attorneys general called for the removal of our accounts from these platforms, based on the CCDH’s report.

Two of those state attorneys general also published an April 8, 2021, op-ed2 in The Washington Post, calling on Facebook and Twitter to ban the “anti-vaxxers” identified by the CCDH. The lack of acceptance of novel gene therapy technology, they claim, is all because a small group of individuals with a social media presence — myself included — are successfully misleading the public with lies about nonexistent vaccine risks.

“The solution is not complicated. It’s time for Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to turn off this toxic tap and completely remove the small handful of individuals spreading this fraudulent misinformation,” they wrote.3

Pharma-funded politicians and pharma-captured health agencies have also relentlessly attacked me and pressured tech monopolies to censor and deplatform me, removing my ability to express my opinions and speak freely over the past year.

The CCDH also somehow has been allowed to publish4 in the journal Nature Medicine, calling for the “dismantling” of the “anti-vaccine” industry. In the article, CCDH founder Imran Ahmed repeats the lie that he “attended and recorded a private, three-day meeting of the world’s most prominent anti-vaxxers,” when, in fact, what he’s referring to was a public online conference open to an international audience, all of whom had access to the recordings as part of their attendance fee. 

The CCDH is also partnered with another obscure group called Anti-Vax Watch. The picture below is from an Anti-Vax Watch demonstration outside the halls of Congress. Ironically, while the CCDH claims to be anti-extremism, you’d be hard-pressed to find a clearer example of actual extremism than this bizarre duo.5

AntiVaxWatch

Gates-Funded Doctor Demands Terrorist Experts to Attack Me

Most recently, Dr. Peter Hotez, president of the Sabin Vaccine Institute,6 which has received tens of millions of dollars from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation,7,8,9 — with funds from the foundation most recently being used to create a report called “Meeting the Challenge of Vaccine Hesitancy,”10,11 — also cited the CCDH in a Nature article in which he calls for cyberwarfare experts to be enlisted in the war against vaccine safety advocates and people who are “vaccine hesitant.” He writes:12

“Accurate, targeted counter-messaging from the global health community is important but insufficient, as is public pressure on social-media companies. The United Nations and the highest levels of government must take direct, even confrontational, approaches with Russia, and move to dismantle anti-vaccine groups in the United States.

Efforts must expand into the realm of cyber security, law enforcement, public education and international relations. A high-level inter-agency task force reporting to the UN secretary-general could assess the full impact of anti-vaccine aggression, and propose tough, balanced measures.

The task force should include experts who have tackled complex global threats such as terrorism, cyber attacks and nuclear armament, because anti-science is now approaching similar levels of peril. It is becoming increasingly clear that advancing immunization requires a counteroffensive.”

Why is Hotez calling for the use of warfare tactics on American citizens that have done nothing illegal? In my case, could it be because I’ve written about the theory that SARS-CoV-2 is an engineered virus, created through gain-of-function research, and that its release was anticipated by global elites, as evidenced in Event 201?

It may be. At least those are some of my alleged “sins,” detailed on page 10 of the CCDH report, “Disinformation Dozen: The Sequel.”13 Coincidentally enough, the Nature journal has helped cover up gain-of-function research conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, publishing a shoddy zoonotic origins study relied upon my mainstream media and others, which was riddled with problems.14,15

So, it’s not misinformation they are afraid of. They’re afraid of the truth getting out. They’re all trying to cover for the Chinese military and the dangerous mad scientists conducting gain-of-function work.

You may have noticed our website was recently unavailable; this was due to direct cyber-attacks launched against us. We have several layers of protective mechanisms to secure the website as we’ve anticipated such attacks from malevolent organizations.

What This Means for You

Through these progressively increasing stringent measures, I have refused to succumb to these governmental and pharmaceutical thugs and their relentless attacks. I have been confident and willing to defend myself in the court of law, as I’ve had everything reviewed by some of the best attorneys in the country.

Unfortunately, threats have now become very personal and have intensified to the point I can no longer preserve much of the information and research I’ve provided to you thus far. These threats are not legal in nature, and I have limited ability to defend myself against them. If you can imagine what billionaires and their front groups are capable of, I can assure you they have been creative in deploying their assets to have this content removed.

Sadly, I must also remove my peer reviewed published study16 on the “Evidence Regarding Vitamin D and Risk of COVID-19 and Its Severity.” It will, however, remain in the highly-respected journal Nutrients’ website, where you can still access it for free.

The MATH+ hospital treatment protocol for COVID-19 and the iMASK+ prevention and early outpatient COVID-19 protocol — both of which are based on the use of vitamins C, D, quercetin, zinc and melatonin — are available on the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance’s website. I suggest you bookmark these resources for future reference.

It is with a heavy heart that I purge my website of valuable information. As noted by Dr. Peter McCullough during a recent Texas state Senate Health and Human Services Committee hearing, data shows early treatment could have prevented up to 85% (425,000) of COVID-19 deaths.17 Yet early treatments were all heavily censored and suppressed.

McCullough, in addition to being a cardiologist and professor of medicine at the Texas A&M University Health Sciences Center, also has the distinction of having published the most papers of any person in the history of his field, and being an editor of two major medical journals. Despite that, his video, in which he went through a paper he’d published detailing effective early treatments, was summarily banned by YouTube in 2020.

“No wonder we have had 45,000 deaths in Texas. The average person in Texas thinks there’s no treatment!” McCullough told the senate panel.18 Indeed, people are in dire need of more information detailing how they can protect their health, not less. But there’s only so much I can do to protect myself against current attack strategies.

They’ve moved past censorship. Just what do you call people who advocate counteroffensive attacks by terrorism and cyberwarfare experts? You’d think we could have a debate and be protected under free speech but, no, we’re not allowed. These lunatics are dangerously unhinged.

The U.S. federal government is going along with the global Great Reset plan (promoted as “building back better”), but this plan won’t build anything but a technological prison. What we need is a massive campaign to preserve civil rights, and vote out the pawns who are destroying our freedom while concentrating wealth and power.

Thousands (how many thousands?) dead post-“vaccination,” and what’s the government doing about it? Scrubbing the numbers, says Dr. Peter McCullough

ORIGINAL LINK

“A typical new drug at about five deaths, unexplained deaths, we get a black-box warning, your listeners would see it on TV, saying it may cause death,” McCullough said. “And then at about 50 deaths it’s pulled off the market.”

The U.S. has a precedent for this. In 1976 during the Swine Flu pandemic the U.S. attempted to vaccinate 55 million Americans, but at that point the shot caused about 500 cases of paralysis and 25 deaths.

“The program was killed, at 25 deaths,” McCullough said.

Compare that type of response to the government’s reaction to much higher reported death numbers related to the Moderna and Pfizer shots and the contrast is alarming, McCullough said, especially when the shots have not even been granted full FDA approval and are only being allowed on the market under an Emergency Use Authorization.

“In the U.S. today [as of late March] we have approximately 77 million people vaccinated for COVID and we have 2,602 deaths reported, so it’s unprecedented how many deaths have accrued,” he said.

Killing Democracy Once and for All: The Global Elite’s Coup d’Etat that Is Destroying Life as We Know It

ORIGINAL LINK

By Robert J. Burrowes

Global Research, May 02, 2021

Politically savvy individuals know that democracy has rarely existed and probably never outside small groups of humans who deliberately organize themselves to share power or grant it temporarily to one or a small number of people for a particular purpose. In most contexts, ‘democracy’ is simply a label used to deceive the unwary into believing that ordinary people have a say in how we are governed. But this has never been the case in any political framework on a larger scale.

Whatever victories have apparently been achieved in the long struggle to achieve political representation, human rights, dignity, economic justice, cultural and gender identity, ecological sustainability and other causes dear to the hearts of those who have struggled, the elite (local, national or global) has always retained control and merely surrendered the minimum necessary to keep the bulk of the human population submissive.

Consequently, as outlined in ‘Why Activists Fail’, while elite control over human societies started to gather pace with the Neolithic revolution 12,000 years ago, it has simply been progressively consolidated since that time. Real power over anything that matters, including fundamental decision-making and the vast bulk of the world’s wealth, remains firmly in the hands of the elite.

More importantly, as one result of the elite’s long reign and the grotesquely distorted priorities it has advanced within the delusional versions of democracy we have experienced, human society is now characterized by staggering levels of psychological, social, economic, military and geopolitical dysfunctionality and Earth is on the brink of ecological collapse with Homo sapiens threatened by four distinct paths to extinction. See ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls: A Report on the State of Planet Earth at Year’s End 2020’.

But what is interesting about the elite coup that is being implemented now, under cover of the non-existent virus SARS-CoV-2 – see, for example, ‘COVID-19: The virus does not exist – it is confirmed!’ and ‘Statement On Virus Isolation (SOVI)’ – and the supposed Covid-19 pandemic, is that the final facade of our ‘democracy’ is being dismantled in plain site with most of the human population begging for it to be done provided that they are kept ‘safe’. It is pitiful to observe and brings to mind one of Benjamin Franklin’s most famous lines: ‘They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.’

How is this final destruction of even the delusion of democracy being executed? Well, the simple answer is this: ‘It is being done in a variety of ways, depending on the context.’ Here are some examples in each of three categories.

Destruction of Democratic Processes, Human Rights and the Rule of Law

While so-called democratic processes have long been a sham and the rule of law (as it is meant to mean in a conventional sense) does not exist  – see ‘The Rule of Law: Unjust and Violent’ – even the sham elements of democracies – rule by Parliament (rather than executive fiat or unelected bureaucrats), respect for human rights (including freedom of speech), obedience of laws and adherence to legal process – have been ignored by virtually all governments (national, provincial and local) around the world as measures decided by the elite and promulgated through its international organizations such as the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization have simply been implemented by governments without so much as a public (or even a parliamentary) debate. In fact, any attempt to present an alternative view in any mainstream forum leads to one of a range of outcomes such as dismissal from office, censorship – with corporate and major social media leading the way – or howls of accusation such as ‘conspiracy theorist’ to discredit the dissenting voice.

This has happened, of course, because politicians are not beholden to voters, which is why lobbying politicians is a waste of time, unless the issue is of little significance politically, militarily, economically and environmentally. As implied above, the elite controls the political fate of politicians who well know that their political survival has nothing to do with pleasing ordinary voters. Politicians are beholden to the elite that manipulates levers of power such as the corporate media and education systems, employs an army of lobbyists to ensure that elite preference is clearly understood (while using bribes where necessary), and has ready access to removal options such as, at its most benign, withdrawal of pre-selection endorsement.

Moreover, those supposedly basic human rights – such as freedom of speech, assembly and movement – have been eviscerated under the various lockdown, curfew and martial law measures with many people attempting to exercise these rights quickly discovering that they no longer exist except, perhaps, in the very narrowest of circles or in particular contexts (even if those with the courage to do so often find that these ‘rights’ do exist but only if one is courageous enough to exercise them).

As early as March 2020, governments around the world were introducing draconian laws supposedly in response to the ‘pandemic’. For example, Denmark’s parliament ‘unanimously passed an emergency coronavirus law which [gave] health authorities powers to force testing, treatment and quarantine with the backing of the police.’ As noted by Copenhagen University law professor Jens Elo Rytter, the measures were unlike anything passed in the last 75 years: ‘It is certainly the most extreme since the Second World War. There have been some powerful encroachments in various terror packages. But this goes further.’ See ‘Denmark rushes through emergency coronavirus law’.

But with the passing of a full year since the coup began, the progressive destruction of any semblance of democracy is now rapidly in train.

As noted about Switzerland by Peter Koenig, for example, the Swiss Federal Council is considering denying those who refuse vaccination access to restaurants, theatres, cinemas and other venues. See ‘Is Switzerland Sliding into Dictatorship? Social Coercion, Privileges to Those Who Accept the Covid Vaccine’.

Of course, Switzerland is far from alone in considering such measures and there is plenty of evidence that virtually all countries will deny airline travel to those not vaccinated. See, for example, ‘Guidance for global travel’.

And Dr. Rudolf Hänsel in Germany reports that on 13 April 2021, the government of Germany tightened the ‘Infection Protection Act’, with the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) confirming that this so-called ‘Emergency Brakes Act’ abrogates the fundamental rights of inviolability of home and body. As noted by the renowned legal scholar Volker Boehme-Neßler: The planned coercive measures such as the curfews are ‘unconstitutional, dictatorial and against human nature’. See ‘Germany: The “Dictatorship of Democracy” Secretly Transformed into an “Open Dictatorship”’.

For a wider look at the bigger picture, Dr. Joseph Mercola interviewed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The interview touched on elements of Mercola’s new book The Truth About Covid-19 explaining how ‘The technocrats’ plan, as laid out in various papers and reports, is to use bioterrorism to take control of the world’s resources, wealth and people’. See ‘The Truth About Covid-19’.

But perhaps constitutional lawyer John W. Whitehead, in collaboration with Nisha Whitehead, captures the true depth of what has transpired in these two paragraphs about the United States but equally applicable to other countries:Defeating the Global Elite’s Coup d’État: The Great Reset

Not only have the federal and state governments unraveled the constitutional fabric of the nation with lockdown mandates that sent the economy into a tailspin and wrought havoc with our liberties, but they have almost persuaded the citizenry to depend on the government for financial handouts, medical intervention, protection and sustenance.

This past year under lockdown was a lesson in many things, but most of all, it was a lesson in how to indoctrinate a populace to love and obey Big Brother. See ‘After a Year Under Lockdown, Will Our Freedoms Survive the Tyranny of COVID-19?’

And you can read more of the Whiteheads’ sobering analysis in this appropriately-titled article too: ‘The Global Deep State: A New World Order Brought to You by COVID-19’.

Of course, a common response of many people is to fearfully deny that this is actually happening or to deny that it is really as bad as it seems. But reality has a nasty habit of biting, sooner or later, although it won’t be either in this case. It is already happening.

The Great Reset: Rule by Elite Agents including International Organizations

By now many people have heard of the World Economic Forum’s ‘Great Reset’ – see ‘The Great Reset’ and Covid-19 – The Great Reset – which is designed to restructure human society through implementation of the measures of the fourth industrial revolution and the transhumanist agenda while substantially reducing the human population. See ‘Corrupt Science and Elite Power: Your Techno-Slavery is Now Imminent’.

And most people are probably aware of the World Health Organization (WHO) providing the endless ‘technical guidance’ for governments to follow in dealing with the supposed virus. See ‘Country & Technical Guidance – Coronavirus disease (COVID-19)’.

But I wonder if you remember voting for the WHO or the World Economic Forum to tell your government to tell you what you to do. In fact, I wonder if you remember having a say in the composition, and hence decision-making, of these international organizations. Do you even know their elite masters?

And yet ‘suddenly’, or so it seems, ‘our’ national, provincial and local governments are doing what these elite agents are telling them to do, which is to tell us what to do in response to this ‘virus’. How did that happen? Do you remember it happening, at least this obviously, previously?

So do you think that voting for some other party at the next election in your country is going to precipitate change?

Of course, it will suit the elite nicely to have you preoccupied over which party will govern your country in future. Because it won’t matter. Just as it never has.

So while you might pin your hopes on some political party (and perhaps, even, a new one) most of what has been familiar about your life in the past will vanish. The changes being wrought by the elite’s corporations as you read this article are profound. For example, vastly more satellites are being shot into Space – see ‘SpaceX launches 60 new Starlink internet satellites, nails latest rocket landing at sea’ – and a staggering array of new infrastructure is being installed on the ground so that 5G (and 6G) can be used to make elite control of our lives total.

This will enable comprehensive surveillance of our daily activities, digital ID (possibly implanted in your brain) linked to your bank account and health records, a social credit ID that will end up dictating every facet of your life, the digitization of money, the robotization of the workforce and military, and the biological and electronic connectivity (through embedded sensors, software and other technologies) of humans and machines through the Internet of Things. And that is just part of what the fourth industrial revolution and the transhumanist agenda will mean for you and me. For a little more, see ‘Beware the Transhumanists: How “Being Human” is being Re-engineered by the Elite’s Covid-19 Coup’.

The ‘good’ news is that the above will only apply to those humans still alive because the agenda of the eugenicists is a substantial depopulation – see Bill Gates talk about this in his 2010 TED Talk: ‘Innovating to zero!’ – but you will get a much fuller explanation, including about ‘Death Panels’ from Peter Koenig in ‘COVID – Bioethics, Eugenics and “Death Panels”: “A Warning”’ and James Corbett in ‘Bioethics and the New Eugenics’.

And if you want further evidence that the global elite is now exercising control over you in ways that were not done so explicitly previously, consider the following: ‘European Plans for “Vaccine Passports” Were in Place 20 Months Prior to the Pandemic. Coincidence?’

More fundamentally, this interview by Dr Reiner Füllmich of WHO insider Dr. Astrid Stuckelberger carefully explains why WHO is a corrupt dictatorship with signatory nations legally required to obey the Director General’s directives and Bill Gates given equivalent status to a member nation-state. See ‘WHO Insider Blows Whistle on Gates and GAVI’.

For more evidence of the ever-tightening centralization of power in elite hands to which this is all leading, see ‘Covid-19 shows why united action is needed for more robust international health architecture’ and ‘WHO Pushes International Pandemic Treaty – Another Stepping Stone to World Government’.

And for further insight into the role of Bill Gates in all this, watch Dr. Vandana Shiva’s thoughtful explanation: ‘Bill Gates and His Empires. “Ushering In the Great Reset”’.

Coups

But the most comprehensive demonstration that any semblance of democracy is being destroyed is perhaps the removal from political office of those presidents who dared to challenge the elite-driven narrative that our world is seriously threatened by a virus.

As recorded in progressive media, at least two presidents openly resisting the elite-driven narrative have been removed in coups, with both presidents killed outright.

President Pierre Nkurunzia of Burundi dismissed Covid-19 as ‘nonsense’. He was then vilified in the western media before expelling the World Health Organization from Burundi. Soon after he died of a ‘heart attack’ and his successor immediately reversed his Covid-19 policies. See ‘President Nkurunzia Says #COVID-19 Is A Hoax’ and ‘Coronavirus and Regime Change: Burundi’s Covid Coup’.

Similarly, President John Magufuli of Tanzania not only rejected the Covid-19 narrative but openly ridiculed it in a televised address, in which he exposed the fraudulent nature of the testing ‘when he covertly had non-human samples – from fruits, goats, sheep, and car oil – tested for Covid on the PCR test, returning positive results from a paw-paw, a quail, and a goat’ thus openly irritating the global elite. See ‘John Magufuli: Death of an African Freedom Fighter’ (which includes the video of President Magufuli exposing the Covid-19 lie).

As always, this led to his vilification by corporate media – see ‘Western Liberal Media Attacks Tanzania’s President John Magufuli for Exposing COVID-19 Tests and Population Control in Africa’ – and their failure to mention the fact that President Magufuli had a PhD in chemistry so was rather more qualified than most to question the elite-driven Covid-19 narrative. See ‘Tanzania – The second Covid coup?’ and ‘Tanzania’s Late President Magufuli: “Science Denier” or Threat to Empire?’

Where is this All Heading?

What is touched on above is, in many respects, just the tip of the iceberg. The profound transformations under way do not bode well for any semblance of a human future worth living.

Apart from the measures already mentioned, you will be fed laboratory-produced synthetic foods. See ‘The “Great Reset”: Will There be Food on the Table? “Who Controls the Food Supply Controls the People”’ and ‘Gates Unhinged: Dystopian Vision for Agrifood Must Not Succeed’.

You will have whatever financial security you think you had taken away. See ‘From “Event 201” to “Cyber Polygon”: The WEF’s Simulation of a Coming “Cyber Pandemic”’ and ‘WEF Warns of Cyber Attack Leading to Systemic Collapse of the Global Financial System’.

And you will watch as your children lose whatever remaining capacity they had for independent thought further broken down by the propaganda directed at them. See ‘Brainwashing our children’.

But this list could go on.

Resisting the Death of Democracy

If you want to strategically resist the elite coup currently in train – that is, to undermine the power of the global elite to take complete control of our lives – there is a comprehensive nonviolent strategy for doing so outlined in ‘We Are Human, We Are Free’ with detailed supportive information available in Nonviolent Defense/Liberation Strategy.

And it will be invaluable if you make yourself increasingly self-reliant as the mechanisms that you have been seduced into becoming dependent upon are progressively and rapidly being taken away. See ‘The Flame Tree Project to Save Life on Earth’.

If you wish to campaign to avert one or more of the four most immediate paths to human extinction – deployment of 5G, nuclear war, the collapse of biodiversity and the climate catastrophe – you can see a list of strategic goals for doing so here: Campaign Strategic Aims.

Conclusion

Human life as you experienced it until the beginning of 2020 has now ended. It will not return. The long-standing elite plan to take complete control of our lives is now being progressively implemented. Act 1 – the ‘Covid-19 pandemic’ – successfully distracted most people so comprehensively that the measures implemented by the global elite to depopulate humanity and take full control of those still living proceeded rapidly. Act 2 is but a short time away.

If you want any chance of restoring a semblance of the lives we have lost, you are invited to join those strategically resisting the elite coup. If your resistance is not strategic, it will have zero impact.

The Dream Of Democracy

Finally it must be recognized that lying is an essential ingredient of statecraft in these times.  Governments lie in an attempt to uphold their legitimacy in the hearts of the people. Democratic governments do not exist.  Not in this world.  Many attempts have been made, many faltering half-measures.  All ultimately…
