In another example of pushback by citizens against draconian COVID-19 lockdown measures , a Canadian Common Law Assembly has passed a bylaw prohibiting COVID restrictions in several communities on Vancouver Island .
The Oceanside Common Law Assembly ( OCLA ) passed a public safety bylaw last month declaring that any government officials who attempt to enforce COVID restrictions , including mandatory distancing , masking , quarantines , and vaccinations in Parksville and Qualicum Beach may face fines and imprisonment .
“ We made history tonight by putting power back in the hands of the people , ” one of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ This is our answer to the police state and the COVID scam .
We call on people everywhere to take the same step through their own Common Law Assemblies and Courts.

” The Bylaw concludes by accusing anyone who tries to impose COVID regulations on the community as being part of a criminal conspiracy and threatens them with “ penalties and imprisonment upon conviction by the Common Law Court of Parksville … All police authorities are expected and compelled by law to enforce this Bylaw or be charged with obstructing justice and democratic process.

This comes as Virginia’s and New Jersey’s government has declared their intention to mandate the COVID-19 and flu vaccine, while the Australian government expands its coronavirus lockdown measures even as hospitalizations and death rates continue to fall.

“ And it is different than life .
And they kind of compare them like they ’ re comparable .
It ’ s like , well , if you take somebody ’ s life , that ’ s permanent , but if you wreck their business , that can be replaced , and this is sort of a justifiable way of protesting and it ’ s a form of reparations.

That ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not the way to address our problems , by throwing a brick through the window , ” Maher added .
Maher ’ s words a notable given his tendency to talk straight about the problems of the far-left , claiming last month that the Democrat Party and its base are endangering Joe Biden ’ s chance of getting elected in November .
“ I am feeling less confident about this .
Maybe it ’ s just their convention bump got to me , but I ’ m feeling less confident than I was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Although , I don ’ t know why looting is always associated with the rage .
I mean , sometimes they ’ re just taking shit , and it ’ s not people you would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” he added .
As the left becomes more and more violent and unhinged we see “ author ” Vicky Osterweil lionizing the rioters saying looting strikes at the heart of “ whiteness ” .

newswars--2020-09-12--‘It’s Like Using A Hammer To Kill A Fly’: Architect Of Sweden’s COVID-19 Anti-Lockdown Strategy Fina

‘It’s Like Using A Hammer To Kill A Fly’: Architect Of Sweden’s COVID-19 Anti-Lockdown Strategy Finally Vindicated

When the history books are written about 2020 and the great coronavirus pandemic , Anders Tegnell , the humble Swedish state epidemiologist and architect of the global-consensus-defying ‘ Sweden strategy ’ , will inevitably loom large throughout the text .
But whether he is portrayed as a hero or villain may – like so many things in this highly polarized era – ultimately depend on who ’ s writing the piece .
As the FT explained in its latest in a series of interviews with Tegnell , the American press – thanks in large part to its newfound fanatical devotion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – including the NYT , has been particularly hard on Tegnell .
The Gray Lady has called Sweden a “ pariah state ” and “ the world ’ s cautionary tale.
” European papers have been somewhat more forgiving .
That ’ s perhaps because the lockdowns imposed across Europe were far more restrictive than what most , outside NYC , experienced in the US .
And despite all that work , new daily cases are back to seeing record highs in France , and post-lockdown highs in Spain , while cases climb @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and across Central Europe into Ukraine .
But sure enough , there ’ s one European nation where cases haven ’ t been showing a “ second wave ” : Sweden .
Instead , cases have continued to fall well into September .
There ’ s no denying that Sweden suffered a large tally of preventable deaths in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities early on the in the pandemic .
But as more time has passed , Sweden ’ s outsize death toll is looking more and more reasonable , particularly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ France .
But even when compared to its well-managed Nordic neighbors , Sweden ’ s numbers are starting to turn .
Here ’ s another view of the respective COVID-19 case data .
The data could offer some insight into why one Swedish CEO told an FT reporter in hushed tones that he would love to tag along on a meeting to meet Tegnell , who had reportedly been planning to spend 2020 helping Somalia set up a public health agency and sending out surveys to Swedes before COVID hit .
It ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ critics in Sweden , even amid all the furor about the “ public opinion polls ” that were so widely touted by English-language media outets – polls that of course purportedly reflected growing discontent with Tegnell ’ s and the government ’ s approach .
But the situation in Sweden has changed rapidly .
And although Tegnell has been careful to repudiate the notion that Sweden “ went herd ” , as President Trump might say , there ’ s little doubt that despite all the setbacks – including the wave of international @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s Q2 GDP figures – the ruling party and Tegnell are much more widely respected inside Sweden than elsewhere in Europe .
In his latest interview with the FT , Tegnell shares his predictions for Sweden , which sound markedly different from Dr. Fauci ’ s comments about the future of the US outbreak yesterday .
But if there ’ s one takeaway from the FT piece that we find particularly interesting , it ’ s the degree of trust that the Swedish people placed in Tegnell .
Today , the architect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the country will have “ a low level of spread ” with occasional local outbreaks .
“ What it will be in other countries , I think that is going to be more critical .
They are likely to be more vulnerable to these kind of spikes .
Those kind of things will most likely be bigger when you don ’ t have a level of immunity that can sort of put the brake on it , ” he adds .
Herd immunity is one of the most controversial concepts of the Covid-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was not Sweden ’ s goal to allow the virus to run its course until enough of the population had been exposed and the infection rate slowed .
But he argues immunity is at least in part responsible for the sharp recent drop in Swedish cases and questions how its neighbors will fare without it .
“ What is protecting Copenhagen today ?
We will see , ” he adds .
Sweden ’ s approach to the pandemic is unusual in large part because its governance is unusual .
Unlike in pretty much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ politicians who take the big decisions but Sweden ’ s public health agency , due to its constitution giving big powers to independent authorities .
In practice , this means Tegnell .
“ This whole approach is Tegnell ’ s .
The government has accepted it without questions , ” says the critical epidemiologist .
Asked by the FT about his distaste for lockdowns , and his decision to stand strong against the crowd , even in the face of sometimes incredible vitriol , Tegnell shrugged his head , and noted the backing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or so staff at Sweden ’ s public health agency .
That makes his ability to stand alone as the rest of the world locked down seem all the more remarkable .
I ask him about it , suggesting it must be easier just to go with the flow .
“ Yes , of course it is .
But I am not alone , ” he says , dutifully listing the backing of the 500 staff in the public health agency as well as Sweden ’ s government and population .
The only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Europe was authoritarian Belarus , I say .
He erupts in a burst of nervous laughter : “ That ’ s no comparison.
” He looks awkward as I mention strong support for Sweden ’ s strategy from some US libertarians and UK supporters of a hard Brexit .
“ Odd bedfellows , ” is his sole comment .
His dislike of national lockdowns is obvious .
“ It ’ s really using a hammer to kill a fly , ” he insists .
Instead , his approach has been about having a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ needs be , rather than the constant chopping and changing seen in the rest of Europe .
“ We don ’ t see it as viable to have this kind of drastic closing down , opening and closing .
You can ’ t open and close schools .
That is going to be a disaster .
And you probably can ’ t open and close restaurants and stuff like that either too many times .
Once or twice , yes , but then people will get very tired and businesses will probably suffer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ completely , ” he says .
Many Americans have also been guilty of criticizing Sweden without first appreciating how radical its program truly was .
Throughout the pandemic , youth sports never even stopped .
Now , the return of sports is suddenly becoming a major issue in the US .
Sweden ’ s approach was predicated on trying to keep its healthcare system working but also looking at public health in the broadest sense , rather than narrowly trying to minimise Covid-19 deaths .
So children ’ s sports carried on , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sessions , drinking and eating out with friends , and shopping .
This trip is my first time in Stockholm for six months — I am based in Oslo and had been to Sweden once during the pandemic , to Gothenburg in June — and I soon settle into my usual rhythm .
I go record shopping at several of my favourite spots , picking up several bargains , have coffee with a contact nearby , and take the metro to meetings and my hotel .
Throughout , I barely see a single @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aliens landing in Sweden really not realize that there ’ s a pandemic going on ?
Tegnell doubts this .
And with good reason .
I suggest to Tegnell that an alien landing in Sweden would have difficulty knowing there is a pandemic whereas in England or France , with face masks prevalent , they would realise immediately .
He argues that while that might be true on the surface , especially with masks — which Sweden is one of the few countries not to recommend wearing in public — the differences elsewhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just as much as neighbours ; hotels and restaurants may not have closed but have been severely affected .
He points to the markings in supermarkets showing people where to stand and detailed restrictions on restaurants in terms of how many people they can have and how they serve them .
During the closing lines of the piece , the author includes one last Tegnell soundbite that ’ s as brilliant as any to end on .
And it ’ s – of course – Tegnell ’ s “ view ” on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t be a “ silver bullet ” .

When the history books are written about 2020 and the great coronavirus pandemic, Anders Tegnell, the humble Swedish state epidemiologist and architect of the global-consensus-defying ‘Sweden strategy’, will inevitably loom large throughout the text.

For many Swedes, their state epidemiologist has embodied a rational approach as other countries have appeared to sacrifice science to emotion. “I wish I were coming with you to see him,” one of Sweden’s leading chief executives confided to me just before I went to see Tegnell. “The way he has stood for what he believes in while the rest of the world does something else is admirable.”
It’s worth adding that Tegnell’s critics in Sweden, even amid all the furor about the “public opinion polls” that were so widely touted by English-language media outets – polls that of course purportedly reflected growing discontent with Tegnell’s and the government’s approach.
But the situation in Sweden has changed rapidly.

For some local experts, Tegnell’s standing alone as the world locked down inspires none of the CEO’s veneration. “Tegnell is known for his stubbornness. You wonder what this would have looked like with a different person in charge,” says a Swedish epidemiologist who has been a critic of Tegnell’s. International media have been harsher still: The New York Times has called Sweden a “pariah state” and “the world’s cautionary tale”.
In his latest interview with the FT, Tegnell shares his predictions for Sweden, which sound markedly different from Dr. Fauci’s comments about the future of the US outbreak yesterday.

During the closing lines of the piece, the author includes one last Tegnell soundbite that’s as brilliant as any to end on. And it’s – of course – Tegnell’s “view” on a COVID-19 vaccine, something he believes won’t be a “silver bullet”.


newswars--2020-09-12--‘That’s What I Hear’: Trump Again Claims Biden May Be Using Drugs to Enhance His Debate Performances

With time ticking for the 3 November election , President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden continue to lock horns , notably over whether either of them is fit to take office .
Donald Trump has once again claimed that Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden is “ possibly ” using drugs in order to improve the former vice president ’ s debate performances during his election campaign .
“ [ … ] That ’ s what I hear .
[ … ] I don ’ t know how you can go from being so bad where you can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
I mean you saw some of those debates with the large number of people on the stage .
He was – I mean , I used to say how is it possible that he can even go forward ” , the US president argued in an interview with Fox News .
The claims came after POTUS called for Biden to be tested for drugs last month and added that he himself is “ pretty good at this stuff ” .
Trump also said that he had watched Biden “ in the debates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and that “ he was close to incompetent , if not incompetent ” .
This followed the US president boasting in July that he had “ aced ” a cognitive test and challenging the former US vice president to take one .
The proposal was then rejected by Biden , who told the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists in July that it ’ s “ like saying , before you got in this program , you ’ re taking a test whether you ’ re taking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ repeatedly questioned the mental health of the Democratic presidential hopeful , dubbing him “ sleepy Joe ” amid media reports about some inconsistencies in the public addresses of the former vice president , as well as his occasional slips of the tongue .
This prompted Biden to release in July his medical assessment , which described him as a “ healthy ” and “ vigorous ” individual .
In the latest development , Biden pledged in an interview with CNN to be “ totally transparent ” as he berated Trump for making disparaging @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s mental acuity .
“ Thank God I am in good health .
But here ’ s the deal .
Anything can happen .
When it comes to Donald Trump versus me , just look at us , okay ?
[ … ] Who seems to be in shape ?
Who ’ s able to move around ?
I mean this idea of ‘ Slow Joe ’ .
Anyway , I shouldn ’ t laugh about it , because [ … ] just look at us both ” , Biden said .
A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showed that respondents are almost evenly split , 51 to 49 percent , on whether Trump is mentally unfit to be president .
As far as Biden is concerned , a CNBC/Change Research survey found that 52 percent of voters consider Biden mentally unfit to be in office , while 48 percent think the opposite .
Owen and Tom Pappert watch as Joe Biden tries to make it through another speech , and then can ’ t find his schedule .

With time ticking for the 3 November election, President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden continue to lock horns, notably over whether either of them is fit to take office.
Donald Trump has once again claimed that Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden is “possibly” using drugs in order to improve the former vice president’s debate performances during his election campaign.
“[…] That’s what I hear. […] I don’t know how you can go from being so bad where you can’t even get out a sentence. I mean you saw some of those debates with the large number of people on the stage. He was – I mean, I used to say how is it possible that he can even go forward”, the US president argued in an interview with Fox News.

The claims came after POTUS called for Biden to be tested for drugs last month and added that he himself is “pretty good at this stuff”.
Trump also said that he had watched Biden “in the debates with all of the different people” and that “he was close to incompetent, if not incompetent”.
This followed the US president boasting in July that he had “aced” a cognitive test and challenging the former US vice president to take one.
The proposal was then rejected by Biden, who told the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists in July that it’s “like saying, before you got in this program, you’re taking a test whether you’re taking cocaine or not”.
POTUS has repeatedly questioned the mental health of the Democratic presidential hopeful, dubbing him “sleepy Joe” amid media reports about some inconsistencies in the public addresses of the former vice president, as well as his occasional slips of the tongue.
This prompted Biden to release in July his medical assessment, which described him as a “healthy” and “vigorous” individual. In the latest development, Biden pledged in an interview with CNN to be “totally transparent” as he berated Trump for making disparaging remarks about the Democratic presidential nominee’s mental acuity.
“Thank God I am in good health. But here’s the deal. Anything can happen. When it comes to Donald Trump versus me, just look at us, okay? […] Who seems to be in shape? Who’s able to move around? I mean this idea of ‘Slow Joe’. Anyway, I shouldn’t laugh about it, because […] just look at us both”, Biden said.
A recent CBS/YouGov poll has, meanwhile, showed that respondents are almost evenly split, 51 to 49 percent, on whether Trump is mentally unfit to be president. As far as Biden is concerned, a CNBC/Change Research survey found that 52 percent of voters consider Biden mentally unfit to be in office, while 48 percent think the opposite.

” Sen. Ted Cruz ( R-Texas ) also condemned the film , blasting Netflix for profiting off the “ sexual abuse of 11-year-old girls.

Senate Homeland Security Chair Urges DOJ to Probe 30+ Cell Phones WIPED by Mueller Team During Russiagate Fiasco

The Republican chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee has called on the DOJ to investigate why members of Robert Mueller ’ s Russiagate team wiped data from dozens of cell phones during the Trump-Russia probe .
Senator Ron Johnson ( R-Wisconsin ) penned a letter to the Justice Department on Friday , asking DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz to launch a probe after documents surfaced this week showing that Mueller ’ s team scrubbed information from up to 31 devices amid the Russiagate investigation .
“ These reports are troubling and raise concerns about record retention and transparency , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I respectfully request that your office open an investigation into this matter to determine what , why , and how information was wiped , whether any wrongdoing occurred , and who these devices belonged to.
” Asking the DOJ to respond within a week ’ s time , Johnson also called on the department to answer a number of specific queries about the phones , including when Justice officials became aware that they had been wiped , and whether data could still be retrieved from the devices .
The 87-page document listing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Justice Department on Thursday under a Freedom of Information request , showing the devices were scrubbed after the DOJ inspector general requested to see them – most of them allegedly by accident , whether due to forgotten passcodes , irreparable damage or loss of the device .
However , some of the data was erased intentionally , the document shows .
While most of the officials ’ names are redacted in the doc , it indicates that the Mueller team “ lost ” a phone belonging to former FBI lawyer Lisa Page , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the Trump-Russia probe after text messages between the two emerged showing them disparaging Trump and his supporters , saying the then-candidate had to be “ stopped.
” Johnson ’ s request to the DOJ comes just hours after Senator Chuck Grassley ( R-Iowa ) , who chairs the Senate ’ s Finance Committee , submitted a similar letter to the Justice Department and FBI , urging them to provide more information on the wiped phones and to release an unredacted version of the 87-page doc .
“ It appears that Special Counsel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ federal records that could be key to better understanding their decision-making process as they pursued their Investigation ” into Trump , Grassley wrote , adding that “ Congress and the American people are owed answers regarding Special Counsel Mueller and his team.

Last weekend, we noted that primetime ratings for ‘woke’ Major League Baseball dropped over 30% – which joined the ‘woke’ NBA in a ratings disaster.
Now, the NFL appears to be suffering as well – with this year’s socially distanced season opener between the Kansas City Chiefs – the reigning Super Bowl champs, stomping the Houston Texans 34-20 with dismal ratings as well.
According to Deadline:
In early numbers, the primetime NBC game scored a 5.2 among adults 18-49 and 16.4 million viewers between 8 – 11 PM ET. Now, those numbers for the 8:25 – 11:30 PM ET game itself will certainly be adjusted upward later, but right now that’s a 16.1% drop over the spectacle of the September 5, 2019 season opener among the advertiser rich demographic. In an America still adjusting to the new normal of live sports in the era of COVID-19, last night’s Kansas City victory also fell 16.1% in total sets of eyeballs from last year’s fast affiliate results – but remember, those numbers will change later today. –Deadline
And while that -16.1% figure will undoubtedly improve as more data comes in, one would think viewership would increase after cooped-up Americans spent the last six months heavily consuming TV shows and movies (which were seemingly exhausted by the end of June).
Perhaps wokeness has taken its toll – as even a “racial unity” moment during last night’s game was booed by fans.

“We are removing false claims that the wildfires in Oregon were started by certain groups,” Andy Stone, policy communications manager at Facebook, tweeted late on Saturday.
Defending what is effectively an act of censorship by the social media giant, Stone noted that speculation suggesting the blazes have been ignited by extremists are forcing law enforcement to “divert resources from fighting the fires and protecting the public.”

The move comes as multiple wildfires are tearing through Oregon, closing in on Portland, the center of the Black Lives Matter protests, which have been marred by vandalism and arson.
This is consistent with our past efforts to remove content that could lead to imminent harm given the possible risk to human life as the fires rage on. (2/2) — Andy Stone (@andymstone) September 12, 2020
The wildfires sparked mass evacuation in the state, forcing more than 40,000 people to flee their homes due to the blaze. As of Saturday, at least 10 people lost their lives in the catastrophe, and dozens are missing.
The fire has already left a trail of destruction, having burned over one million acres across the state, twice as much as the yearly average, the Oregonian reported.
As the fires are being referred to as “historic” in terms of the number of conflagrations and the estimated damage, speculation arose that foul play might be involved, with rumors circulating online that Antifa or BLM activists could be behind the infernos.
On Friday, the FBI sought to shut down those rumors, saying that they had “investigated several such reports” and determined them “to be untrue.” In its message, the FBI urged the public to “help us stop the spread of misinformation.”

On Friday, a man was charged with multiple counts of arson after allegedly igniting a wildfire near Phoenix in southern Oregon. Another man was arrested in central Oregon on Tuesday on suspicion of starting a fire that ravaged some 400 acres of land. There is nothing to suggest, though, that any of these alleged arsons were politically motivated.
Facebook has recently ramped up its crackdown on what it deems disinformation or “fake news,” drawing backlash from critics, arguing that by silencing certain opinions like messages in support of Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse or alternative takes on the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s acting as a publisher and not as the platform it claims to be.
Last month, the company reported that it removed some seven million posts for “coronavirus misinformation” between March and June.

Israel is poised to declare the whole country a “red zone” due to a spike in Covid-19 cases, limiting people’s movements to a 500-meter radius from home and closing all non-essential businesses that serve customers in person.
The sweeping lockdown is set to take effect on September 18 at 6am local time, multiple Israeli media reported on Saturday. The Israeli cabinet is expected to approve the new stringent restrictions on the movement of people as well as on commerce as early as on Sunday morning, Haaretz reported.
Although concerns about an imminent “second wave” of the coronavirus, particularly regarding its possible overlap with the common seasonal flu, have been mounting and several European countries have already reported a surge in cases, Israel becomes the first nation to plunge back into a nationwide lockdown after the previous one was phased out back in May.
The draft resolution, prepared by the Health Ministry, and seen by Haaretz, halts or severely restricts the operation of all businesses that require staff to serve clients in person for at least two weeks. Residents will still be able to shop for groceries, with supermarkets and grocery stores being exempted from the ban. There is also an exception for medical supply stores, including drug stores, as well as for cell phone shops and repair services. All cafes and restaurants will be prohibited from serving diners inside, but allowed to offer delivery and takeout.
Those businesses, which will be allowed to operate under the lockdown, will have to cap the number of staff at 30 percent or at 10 people, depending on which figure is higher. The same 30 percent rule will apply to government offices.

Pupils, who have just started the new school year, are expected to switch to remote learning. The move will likely mean just another vacation for preschoolers, with the Israeli Preschools Council saying that educators would be forced to put the learning process on hold.
