Medical profession implements WHO digital diagnosis code for the unvaxxed – “Doctors will be ‘incentivized’ by the government to start asking more questions about your vax status. A set of international codes are used by the medical industry for billing purposes under Medicare-Medicaid and the private insurance companies, but it’s not just about billing. These codes are part of the International Classification of Disease (ICD) system set forth by the United Nations World Health Organization and they’re about to get far more invasive.” – Leo Hohmann

Malign creativity: Greta edition – “As many of you have probably seen, everyone’s favorite climate spokesmoppet got herself arrested in germany protesting to “save the world” from the evils of climate change and coal mining. As the video above makes clear however, this was a full blown PR stunt/put up job. she was not mistreated or mishandled. The whole thing was planned and choreographed.” – El Gato Malo  – LINKED AN ARTICLE ON THIS YESTERDAY AND THE VIDEO PRETTY MUCH CONFIRMS THAT THIS WAS ALL STAGED!!!!

Ardern Out: Tearful New Zealand Prime Minister Unexpectedly Announced Resignation – “New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, one of the best known and longest faces of the globalist menace that steamrolled all personal rights and liberties during the period of world history known as “covid fascism” while arresting countless non conformists just so she could impose universal lockdowns and to enable the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna to become stinking rich, said she would step down by Feb. 7 after more than five years as leader because she “lacks the energy” to do the job ahead of an election later this year.” – Tyler Durden

Fear Is Pfizer’s Financial Fertilizer – “By now, you’ve probably heard there’s a new COVID variant making the rounds, and it’s said to be “the most transmissible” variant to date. To hit the proper emotional note where propaganda becomes effective, the new variant, XBB.1.5, was quickly dubbed the “Kraken,” which is a moniker referring to a legendary sea beast that could not be defeated. There’s nothing particularly noteworthy, and certainly nothing scary, about this new variant.” – Dr. Joseph Mercola

Biden’s climate envoy John Kerry says an ‘extra terrestrial’ force brought people to Davos to ‘save the planet’ in bizarre World Economic Forum speech – Morgan Phillip

Corporate Media COVID Contradictions Show Why The Data Always Matters – “Reality And Data Are Still Lethal To The Pandemic Panic Narrative. If you read nothing else but this article from Forbes, you might be forgiven for thinking the XBB.1.5 recombinant Omicron SARS-CoV-2 subvariant is a dangerous and deadly infectious pathogen. Yet while the picture being painted is one of XBB.1.5 spreading rapidly throughout the United States. The picture painted by the actual data is far less bleak and far more hopeful. Even where XBB.1.5 is spreading rapidly, hospitalizations have peaked and are trending downward. This has been the case even two weeks ago, when the media was first starting to hype the “Kraken” as the latest deadly subvariant of the original SARS-CoV-2 virus.” – Peter Nayland Kust

360 Degree Surveillance: How Police Use Public-Private Partnerships to Spy on Americans – “In this age of ubiquitous surveillance, there are no private lives: everything is public. Surveillance cameras mounted on utility poles, traffic lights, businesses, and homes. License plate readers. Ring doorbells. GPS devices. Dash cameras. Drones. Store security cameras. Geofencing and geotracking. FitBits. Alexa. Internet-connected devices. There are roughly one billion surveillance cameras worldwide and that number continues to grow, thanks to their wholehearted adoption by governments (especially law enforcement and military agencies), businesses, and individual consumers. With every new surveillance device we welcome into our lives, the government gains yet another toehold into our private worlds.” – John & Nisha Whitehead  – ANOTHER GOOD READ FROM JOHN AND NISHA AS WELL AS THE ONE BELOW FROM JUDGE NAPOLITANO!!!!!!

The FBI and Personal Liberty – “Among the lesser-known holes in the Constitution cut by the Patriot Act of 2001 was the destruction of the “wall” between federal law enforcement and federal spies. The wall was erected in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, which statutorily limited all federal domestic spying to that which was authorized by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The wall was intended to prevent law enforcement from accessing and using data gathered by America’s domestic spying agencies. Those of us who monitor the government’s destruction of personal liberties have been warning for a generation that government spying is rampant in the U.S., and the feds regularly engage in it as part of law enforcement’s well-known antipathy to the Fourth Amendment. Last week, the FBI admitted as much. Here is the backstory.” – Andrew P. Napolitano

This Challenge To Illinois’ Gun Law Tees Up SCOTUS To Finally Nuke ‘Assault Weapons’ Bans – “This case seems destined for the U.S. Supreme Court, which has sidestepped the constitutionality of ‘assault weapons’ and ‘large-capacity’ magazine bans for years.” – Margot Cleveland

Rep. Matt Gaetz Introduces ‘Abolish the ATF Act’ After New Rule Turned Millions of Gun Owners Into Criminals – Jim Hoft

Mexico Is Not Really an American Friend – “One sure sign of historic national decline is the collective inability of a government and its people to defend their own borders and national sovereignty. Note that Mexico itself facilitates illegal transits across its own southern border—as long as such Central American and other global migrants keep heading northward into the United States. But when or if they pause, try to stay in Mexico, commit crimes, or expect Mexican social services, then almost immediately Mexico City sends thousands of troops to close its border with Guatemala, deports the illegal crossers, and revives talk of building a border wall of its own. Biden has demolished America’s southern border. His illegal nullification of U.S. immigration law is music to Obrador’s ears.” – Victor Davis Hanson

A classified document found in a garage is no accident, it is a crime – “People are missing the point and the media are purposely distorting the facts about the discovery of classified documents in Joe Biden’s possession. The unsecured classified documents found in Biden’s garage is not only a crime scene, it is evidence of espionage. Every pundit on the television continually demonstrates having little clue about the law or even the name of the security program that governs the safeguarding of classified materials.” – Mark Hewitt

Brother And Son – “One of the tricks the Clintons popularized for getting around rules and protocols was the sudden collapse in enforcement of the rules and protocols. Instead of violating one specific rule that was hindering them, they would violate all the rules. This way they could blame the system or just unintended errors. This made it hard to see the specific rule they were violating, which made it hard to see the caper. They hid their crimes in an avalanche of sloppiness. This seems to be what the Bidens were up to when Joe was Vice President.” – The Z Man

Hunter Biden Lived in Wilmington House with Classified Documents While Bagging Millions Linked to the Highest Levels of Chinese Intelligence – “While addicted to drugs, cavorting with prostitutes, and making deals with businessmen tied to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence, Hunter Biden lived in the house where Joe Biden stored classified documents.” – Seamus Bruner

BREAKING: Charges Announced Against Alec Baldwin in ‘Rust’ Shooting – “The prosecutors in New Mexico have just announced that actor Alec Baldwin is going to face two felony counts of involuntary manslaughter in regard to the fatal shooting of the film’s cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins.” – Nick Arama  – NO ONE SHOULD BE ABOVE THE LAW, ACTOR OR NOT. BALDWIN KNEW NOTHING ABOUT SAFE WEAPON HANDLING AND SOMEONE LOST THEIR LIFE BECAUSE OF HIS CARELESSNESS. TRUE GUN CONTROL STARTS WITH THE PROPER TRAINING AND USAGE OF WEAPONS AND NOT TAKING AWAY PEOPLE’S RIGHTS!!!!!

France Grinds To Halt Over Nationwide Pension Strikes – Tyler Durden

‘Fragmented World’ Sleepwalks Into World War III – “Insufferable bores from that Divide and Rule island in northern Europe have just found out that “geopolitics”, alas, never really entered the tawdry “end of history” tunnel: much to their amazement it’s now centered – again – across the Heartland, as it’s been for most of recorded history. They complain about “threatening” geopolitics, which is code for Russia-China, with Iran attached. But the icing on the Alpine cake is arrogance/stupidity actually giving away the game: the City of London and its vassals are livid because the “world Davos made” is fast collapsing. Davos did not “make” any world apart from its own simulacrum. Davos never got anything right, because these “elites” were always busy eulogizing the Empire of Chaos and its lethal “adventures” across the Global South. Davos not only failed to foresee all recent, major economic crises but most of all the current “perfect storm”, linked to the neoliberalism-spawned deindustrialization of the Collective West. And, of course, Davos is clueless about the real Reset taking place towards multipolarity.” – Pepe Escobar

US May Help Ukraine Launch An Offensive On Crimea – “It’s hard to imagine a full-scale assault on geostrategically crucial territory long considered a part of the Russian homeland not causing a major escalation. It’s been widely accepted among foreign policy analysts that Crimea is among the reddest of all of Russia’s red lines in this standoff. Moscow considers Crimea to be Russian. Your disagreements with the Kremlin about Crimea will not protect you from nuclear fallout, and they will not protect anyone else. Nuclear warheads don’t care about your feelings. Any assertion that Russia will not use nukes under such-and-such a circumstance must squarely address this question: “Are you willing to gamble the life of every terrestrial organism on that claim being true?” If you can’t answer this question, your claim isn’t serious or valid.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Washington Has Resurrected the Threat of Nuclear Armageddon – “We owe this disaster to the neoconservatives. The neoconservatives were responsible for Iran-Contra and were fired and prosecuted by President Reagan. They were pardoned by Reagan’s successor, President George H.W. Bush and wormed their way into conservative ranks and into policy positions in government.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Ukraine: Is the Hammer About to Fall? – “The level of incompetence in the planning of this war is beyond anything we’ve ever seen before. It appears that all the preparation was focused on provoking a Russian invasion, not on the developments that would happen soon afterwards.” – Mike Whitney

CIA Chief Warns Zelensky of Assassination (…by the CIA) – “So CIA boss William Burns made a secret trip to Kiev in January last year to warn Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky that his life was in danger from assassination. The clandestine meeting occurred only weeks before Russia launched its military operation in Ukraine. Western news media are gullibly spinning the claim that Burns warned Zelensky that the Russians were plotting to kill him. The impact of the top secret briefing was said to have had a “sobering effect” on the man in Kiev. In less polite terms, he crapped in his pants. That Burns had to meet Zelensky in person suggests that the American spymaster wanted to convey another, unreported message, a message that only Zelensky would hear and one that could not be taped at any cost.” – Finian Cunningham

Is Putin dead? Volodymyr Zelensky questions whether Russian president is still alive – Gergana Krasteva  – SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!!!! ONCE A COMEDIAN ALWAYS A COMEDIAN!!!!!!

Why’d Zelensky Humiliate Himself By Telling The Davos Elite That Putin Might Have Already Died? – Andrew Korybko

Ukraine War Spills Over Into the Middle East – “US and Israel will prevent the sale of Iranian drones to Russia” – Philip Giraldi

Want to Know Where the Economy Is Going? Watch The Top 10% – Charles Hugh Smith

Why the Fed Is Bankrupt and Why That Means More Inflation – “Why Is the Fed Insolvent Now? A sizable part of the reason that the Fed has become insolvent in recent months (and almost certainly will be in 2023 overall) stems from the fact that since 2008, the Fed has bought up trillions of dollars in Treasury debt and mortgage-backed securities (MBSs). The Fed has done this to prop up the prices of real estate and government bonds (i.e., to subsidize Wall Street, banks, and the real estate industry.) Yet it bought these fixed-rate assets when interest rates were very low, and most of those assets have a maturity of over a year. That means that even as interest rates have risen in the past year, the Fed’s income from these assets has not risen sizably.” – Ryan McMaken

The Next Major Threat to Your Portfolio Just Arrived – “The data is finally beginning to register that a recession is at hand. I’ve been forecasting that the U.S. economy was in recession back in November. Leading indicators and the bond market made this clear. The yield curve has accurately predicted every recession since 1982. And it was SCREAMING that a recession was about to hit in the U.S. since mid-2022. As you can see in the chart below, the yield curve was more inverted than at any point in the last 40 years.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Here We Go Again! It’s Time for Another Debt Ceiling Fight – “Here we go again. The clock is ticking down to another US debt ceiling fight. According to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, the US government will officially bump up against the debt ceiling Thursday (Jan. 19). Make no mistake, Congress will raise the debt limit. It will posture. It will bluster. It will play a dramatic game of chicken. We might even have to endure another fake government shutdown. But when it’s all said and done, Republicans and Democrats will reach some kind of compromise.” – Michael Maharrey

Common Habits That Could Make You A Target For Looters – “Looting is a common after-effect of natural disasters and other widespread emergencies.
