Nearly 700 Days into “2 Weeks to Flatten the Curve” And The Only Thing That’s Reduced is Your Freedom – Matt Agorist

It Didn’t Just Happen . . . – “How did we get to this point? The federal government is about to decide whether it has the “constitutional” power to force everyone in America to submit to “vaccination” . . . not because they are sick or even likely to get sick – but on the basis that they might and if they do then it could affect others, impose “costs” on “society,” generally. This is not a new argument. It is an old one, elaborated. ” – Eric Peters

Cyprus Finds Covid-19 Infections That Combine Delta and Omicron – Georgios Georgiou  – OH, NO!  WATCH OUT FOR THE “DELTACRON”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, omicron is mild. – Refuting the new histrionics from the WHO” – El Gato Malo

We Have Never Been More ‘Vaccinated’ and We Have Never Had More COVID-19 – “8.5 billion mRNA doses later we have finally “flattened the curve” — along the Y axis. You would think it would have done at least a little bit of a difference for infections — instead infections have never been higher and it’s not even close. Actually the more “vaccinated” locales tend to have more COVID — as you would expect for a “vaccine” with a negative efficiency for infection: the two-dose makes you more likely to test positive after some 6 to 8 months, while the booster goes into negative territory after as little as 2 months.” – Anti-Empire

“I Do Not Want To Have A Vaccination”: NHS Doctor Tells UK Health Secretary On Camera – “he doesn’t believe the science for mandating the vaccines is “strong enough” and the government should at least consider the nuance that some doctors have had antibodies through previous exposure to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus” – Lily Zhou

New symptom of Omicron in young children revealed – “US doctors are warning parents that under-fives are developing a “barking” cough – RT

The Accidental Biosecurity State – “The sorry state of Canada’s Covid response is glaring. Ontario is under lockdown. Quebec is under a curfew. Ontario, BC, Alberta and Quebec have started the year with closed schools. Canada has sleepwalked into a biosecurity state. The boot of Covid policies is on citizens’ necks at all times and authorities keep moving it.” – Mikko Packalen

Wendepunkt – ““Where’s the vaccine mandate they promised us?” whines Daniel Brössler, reporter for the Süddeutsche Zeitung, disappointed because yesterday’s Corona summit of German minister presidents returned nothing but some adjustments to quarantine and sharpened testing rules. Meanwhile, in Austria, the thrice-vaccinated chancellor Karl Nehammer has tested positive for Corona. The news comes as Austria announces they will delay implementing their vaccine mandate by two months. It is obvious that we are at a turning point, even if everyone has yet to realise it – even if France is sharpening vaccine requirements, even if Italy has imposed vaccine mandates for everyone over 50, and even if Canada is for the moment determined to remain a prison state. It is a commonplace observation, but a true one: Since the vaccines began to fail in August, the vaccinators have been progressing through the proverbial five stages of grief.” – eugyppius

In defying the COVID regime, Novak Djokovic is the new ‘People’s Champ’ – “Djoker is using his platform to fight for individual rights.” – Jordan Schachtel

New big data study of 145 countries show COVID vaccines makes things worse (cases and deaths) – “I missed this study. So did the mainstream media for some reason. But this study is yet another independent analysis that is difficult to refute: we have been misled by the CDC, FDA, and NIH.” – Steve Kirsch

Huge Number of Vax Deaths & It’s Getting Worse – Dr. Pierre Kory Huge Number of Vax Deaths & It’s Getting Worse (VIDEO) with Dr. Pierre Kory – ” Dr. Kory warns, “They already broke death records with these vaccines almost a year ago. Now, you are starting to see it in actuarial data with life insurance companies. The life insurance companies have been paying out claims like they never have before, and they are noticing the deaths cannot be explained by Covid” – Greg Hunter

A Pandemic of Bureaucracy – “Germany is not short of idiotic rules either. For instance, after a year of accepting surgical masks, now they are requiring FP2 masks on public transportation and even supermarkets. Is there any study that shows that FP2 masks work any better than surgical ones? Not really. It seems that the idea is that, since such masks make breathing harder, they are thought as more efficient. Since none of that works, one would think that with such abysmal failure the pandemic bureaucrats would give up, but that is misunderstanding the issue. As a wise man observed long ago, a bureaucracy, like a virus, exists only to perpetuate itself.” – TE Creus

NEWS

January 6 and the real ‘Big Lie’ – “The Big Lie is that Trump and his supporters are engaged in The Big Lie. That is the real lie, the biggest lie (Mother of All Lies?) of all. Trump-supporters, though misguided on January 6, 2021, were attempting to protect their nation from the real coup, the never-ending coup against America, at least red-state America, being perpetrated by the left and almost all Democrats. Incredibly, the coup that sought to oust the democratically elected Trump from office began even before he arrived there. The real Big Lie has been — and is still being — aided, abetted, and promoted by the Big Liars in the mainstream media.” – Eric Utter

Federal vaccine mandate enters ‘major question’ land – Jonathan Turley

The Supreme Court and Congress Humiliate Themselves – “Two important cases came before the Supreme Court this week and, in Congress, the Nancy Pelosi Reichstag Fire Revisited was being played out. In both cases, these bodies deserved our disrespect for their violation of established norms and display of ignorance.” – Clarice Feldman

There’s A Reason No One Likes Kamala Harris – “Harris is such a singularly grating personality that she polls lower than lemon juice on an open wound. Death by wood chipper is less likely to incur the wrath of human rights activists for torture than forcing someone to listen to Kamala’s speeches. If you’re an incompetent politician, partnering with someone possessing all the public charm and warmth of explosive diarrhea means you will always come off better than you otherwise would because the alternative is so horrible. That’s what, and all, Kamala Harris brought to the ticket.” – Derek Hunter

Gun Control By Fiat: Biden’s DOJ Changes The Rules Again – “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, but …” – James Fite

EXCLUSIVE: Evidence that Yesterday’s Event in Chicago Included ‘Tradecraft’ Indicating the Federal Government Was Involved – “We noted Federal agents at a rally in Washington DC this summer. Some shared that there were more Feds there than participants. On December 5th we reported on a bizarre march in Washington DC where those who participated were carted away in UHaul trucks. They too looked like Feds. Yesterday we reported on an incident in Chicago where a number of individuals were seen marching and then scrambling into cars. These individuals looked like the Feds who marched in Washington a month prior.” – Joe Hoft  – SO WHY ARE THEY DELIBERATELY TRYING TO STIR CROWDS UP, AND DID THEY ON JAN 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biden Administration Cuts Florida’s Weekly Monoclonal Shipment in Half – “DeSantis alleged the limits the HHS had set for Florida were “political.” “The federal government has cornered the entire market of monoclonal,” he said in a press conference on Jan. 3.” – Jannis Falkenstern  – PLAYING POLITICS WITH HUMAN LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The City And Campaign-Year Man – “As Democrats shift their message to the center, we should not lose sight of what blue governance really looks like. Talk is cheap and misgovernment is expensive. We should remember that this year, as people we are used to tuning out suddenly start sounding sort of reasonable. The standoff with Chicago public school teachers resisting going back to work has liberal mainstays suddenly talking sense. MSNBC’s Chris Hayes recently asked on Twitter where all the Covid money distributed to schools has gone,” – Micah Meadowcroft

Furniture giant Ikea slashes sick pay for unvaccinated staff forced to self-isolate after close contact with someone infected with Covid-19 – “The move means unvaccinated workers, who are required by the Government to isolate for 10 days after close contact, could receive as little as £96.35 a week under Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) obligations, a legal minimum. That compares with the average pay for Ikea shopfloor staff of £10.10 an hour outside London and £11.30 in the capital – the equivalent of £404 and £452 for an average working week.” – Alex Lawson  – I SAY SCREW IKEA FOR TREATING THE UNJABBED AS SECOND CLASS CITIZENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

George Floyd’s 4-Year-Old Niece Was Shot While Asleep in Apt. — Where’s the Democrat Outcry? – “The problem for the whole “Black Lives Matter,” “white supremacy,” “systemic racism” narrative is that chances are [sarc], little Arianna Delane was not shot by a racist white cop at 3:00 in the morning in what was most likely an intentional drive-by shooting. Yep, that’s a problem. And how can I go out on such a precarious limb? By relying on facts and statistics that point to an entirely different demographic. The same facts and statistics apply to the bloody streets of Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot‘s Southside, which is why Nancy Pelosi, Chuckie Schumer, lunatic Maxine Waters, hapless Joe Biden, vacant Kamala Harris, racist Joy Reid, silly Don Lemon, and the entire lot of these hypocritical people remain full-metal crickets on the out-of-control pandemic of violent black-on-black crime.” – Mike Miller – MR. MILLER SAYS HE’S GOING OUT ON A LIMB ON THIS ONE, BUT HE’S PROBABLY CORRECT. MORE THEN LIKELY IT WAS A BLACK ON BLACK CRIME, HENCE THE HYPOCRITES WON’T CARE ABOUT IT NOR WILL BLM. IT DOESN’T FURTHER THEIR NARRATIVE!!!!!!

They Claimed None Of These Things Could Happen In America, Called Them ‘Conspiracies’ And ‘Unreliable And Harmful,’ Claims, Yet They Have All Come True In The Past Year – Susan Duclos

UK: “Apocalyptic Bird Flu” Jumps to Humans as Authorities Cull Millions of Birds (VIDEO) – “Zoonotic transmission of an “apocalyptic bird flu,” H5N1, has been reported in the UK, boasting a 50+% fatality rate for humans. However, digging deeper reveals that the asymptomatic “patient zero” was tested “constantly” until returning the result (false positive?) that authorities need to justify the ongoing culling of tens of millions of birds and claim that YOU cannot be allowed to raise your own animals to feed your family. Meanwhile, Australian grocers are rationing meat as asymptomatic workers are kept from work, resulting in abattoirs shutting down in Australia. How long will this test fraud scamdemic be allowed to continue? Until we stop it.” – Ice Age Farmer

Pope Francis Is Queering The Catholic Church – “All this therapeutic language (“closeness, compassion, tenderness”) conceals the fact that Sr. Jeannine and her ministry has been leading people away from clear, authoritative Catholic teaching about sexuality, and homosexuality.” – Rod Dreher

Americans Fled High-Tax States in 2021, New Analysis Shows – “When voters put their money on the line, they chose lower-tax states and rejected high-tax, blue-state policies.” – Brad Polumbo

Where is your red line? – “Probably soon things are going to get very, very weird in Russia. The situation is already quite dicey, obviously. The State Duma is expected to finalize and vote on nationwide QR code legislation in the coming weeks. If everything goes according to plan—and it probably will—this law will come into effect in February. Where is the discussion on this civilization-altering bill? There are so many self-professed Russophiles and Russia Analysts on the interwebs—and hardly a peep about one of the most consequential moments in Russian history.” – Edward Slavsquat

Putin Stamps Out the Fire in Kazakhstan and Ukraine – “What may have been surprising was how quickly Russia and Kazakh’s President, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev invoked the CSTO to come in and stop the nonsense. But, if it didn’t happen this way the consequences for Russia and the rest of Asia would have been catastrophic. Kazakhstan is simply too big and too important for Russia to even consider allowing to fall back into the hands of someone like Nursultan Nasarbaev, a true post-Soviet meglomaniac, Russophobe and self-interested jackass whose double dealings with the West are just shy of those by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.” -Tom Luongo

Kazakhstan: Another Western-Ordered ‘Maidan’ in the Making? – “Washington denies that the West played an active role in the massive protests that have engulfed the former Soviet republic of Kazakhstan. Yet the overall orchestration of the strife, in addition to the curious timing, points to some level of foreign intrigue.” – Robert Bridge

How green policies are fuelling the energy crisis – “We have swapped abundant and reliable sources of energy for intermittent renewables.” – Rob Lyons

You Need to Train – “I think that the biggest gap and blind spot that we have in preparedness circles is training. A quick look at social media will confirm this. You’ll find discussions and photos of all the latest whiz-bang gadgetry we buy, photos of our food stockpiles, photos of guns and ammo, but not a lot of discussion on the training we do. Now, I‘m not really a fan of discussing anything on social media, which I’ll get into in a second, but most people narrative their lives on it, and the lack of discussion is proof that training isn’t happening for most. The main reason to avoid social media discussions is Operational Security (OPSEC). The DHS has publicly stated that they believe preparedness to be an indicator of “potential right wing domestic violent extremism”, right alongside “a strong belief in the Constitution”. Yes, really. Not only is being flagged by the DHS a concern, but the Defense Production Act is as well.” – Joe Dolio  – PRETTY SAD THAT IF YOU HAPPEN TO DISCUSS ON SOCIAL MEDIA THAT YOU ARE TRAINING TO PROTECT YOUR FAMILY OR PREPARING FOR AN EMERGENCY, THAT THEY MAY CONSIDER THAT AS BEING A TERRORIST!!!!!
