On Friday , December 4th , Circuit Judge Kevin Elsenheimer ordered a forensic inspection of 22 Dominion election machines used in Antrim County and prohibited the destruction of evidence relating to the 2020 election .
According to the Detroit Free Press , Antrim County spokesperson Jeremy Scott said forensic images will be taken @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nov. 3 election .
Scott reportedly said a group called ASOG will begin taking the forensic images Sunday morning , with Clerk Sheryl Guy , county administrator Pete Garwood , and Bailey in attendance .
The imaging is expected to take hours , but there is no timeline for the forensic team ’ s investigation and results , he said .

We didn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But later , Michigan officials claimed the glitch was not caused by Dominion machines or software , but related to a human error .
However , Powell ’ s lawsuit filed on behalf of Republicans against Michigan Gov .

Antrim was just one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dominion Voting Systems to process their ballots .
Can examiners verify for certain that the system was safe from fraudulent or unauthorized manipulation ?

The Powell lawsuit further states that the State of Michigan entered into a contract with Dominion Systems ’ Democracy Suite 4.14-D first , and then included Dominion Systems ’ Democracy Suite 5.0-S on or about January 27 , 2017 , which added a fundamental modification : “ dial-up and wireless results transmission capabilities to the ImageCast Precinct and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Results Transfer Manager module.
” “ While the glitch issue was identified and corrected after observers flagged the unlikeliness of the outcome , it ’ s unclear whether this issue replicated itself elsewhere , ” writes an open petition for an independent audit .

Dominion denies this and contends that their systems “ are capable of producing paper records and are 100 % auditable , with testing , reviews , audits , and recounts subject to oversight and verification by all political parties.
” As evidence of the risks of the Dominion Democracy Suite , as described above , the same Dominion Democracy Suite was denied certification @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on January 24 , 2020 , specifically to be safe from fraud or unauthorized manipulation .
Meanwhile in Detroit , an experienced ballot counter explained what she saw “ has never happened in the 20 years of being in this business.
” At the end of the day , when voting had stopped and they were ready to go home , suddenly a white van , a Chrysler , and a Ferrari pulled up with an estimated 130,000 additional ballots .
Detroit poll watcher Shane Trejo also witnessed 61 cases of mystery ballots @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in a city elections van in Detroit at 3:30am Election Night .
“ No chain of custody , 7 1/2 hours of ballots in limbo…public will be shocked at the fraud.
” “ This type of widespread fraud in the counting and processing of voter ballots can not be allowed to stand , ” said David A. Kallman , an attorney with the Great Lakes Justice Center , a non-profit corporation dealing with constitutional liberties and other civil rights issues , who filed an election crimes lawsuit in Wayne County Circuit Court in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ states that the criminal acts “ disenfranchised lawful voters and potentially changed the outcome of the election.
” “ Michigan citizens are entitled to know that their elections are conducted in a fair and legal manner and that every legal vote is properly counted.
” Following the elections , variations of irregularities soon surfaced , best detailed in a November 14th letter by Aric Nesbitt and other MI senators to Secretary of State Benson .
Nesbitt had requested an audit prior to the certification .
As Sidney Powell summarizes in her lawsuit , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means , but the most fundamentally troubling , insidious , and egregious is the systemic adaptation of old-fashioned ‘ Ballot-stuffing.
’ ” Some of the allegations in Nesbitt ’ s letter include : • counting the same batches of ballots multiple times ; • using false information to process ballots , such as using incorrect or false birthdays and inserting new names into the QVF and recorded these new voters as having a birthdate of 1/1/1900 ; • accepting ballots deposited in drop boxes after the deadline ; • counting ballots even though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ appear in the official voter rolls ; • ordering election workers to not verify voters ’ signatures on absentee ballots Some of these occurrences above are addressed in a lawsuit by The Amistad Project .
One of their suits is also faulting MI Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson for providing Rock The Vote , a far-left activist group that identifies as “ non-partisan , ” with the private information of MI residents .
“ We also have two other pre-election lawsuits still pending .
Despite inaccurate reports from other media , those have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first and now we ’ re the last ones standing in the arena in Michigan , ” explains Attorney Ian Northon , Special Counsel for The Amistad Project .
There are also disturbing claims regarding how Michigan officials managed events prior to the 2020 election .
For instance , in September , the Detroit City Council approved a $ 1 million contract for the staffing firm P.I.E .
Management to hire up to 2,000 workers to work the polls and staff the ballot-counting machines at the TCF Center .
The lawsuit claims @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mark Zuckerberg through the group CTCL , “ which paid over $ 400 million nationwide to Democrat-favoring election officials and municipalities.
” The suit , which lists Karamo as a plaintiff ( mentioned earlier ) , also accuses Benson of sending at least 350,000 unsolicited ballots without a signed requested as required by Michigan law , and millions more absentee ballot applications without verifying whether the intended recipients were still residing at the same location , whether they were eligible to vote in 2020 , or even whether they were still alive .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ballots cast by individuals who were registered to vote in another state .
They also counted 317 ballots from people who voted more than once and 259 ballots from voters who listed only an email address instead of a physical address .
Finally , election officials mailed out at least 74,000 absentee ballots that voters requested online .
The above image , which highlights 500,000+ unlawful ballots or illegal votes , is the main case pending before the Michigan Supreme Court .
After analyzing the data , experts observed more concrete patterns : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ramsland , Jr. noted a “ physically impossible ” event after analyzing voting machines in Michigan .
He determined that the maximum processing capability was only 94,867 ballots , so that “ there were 289,866 more ballots processed in the time available for processing in the four precincts/townships than the capacity allows.
” • Ramsland also identified “ 4 spikes totaling 384,733 ballots allegedly processed in a combined interval of 2 hours and 38 minutes ” for four precincts/townships in four Michigan counties ( Wayne , Oakland , Macomb and Kent ) .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ capable of processing 94,867 ballots in that time .
Yet , the reported results claimed that 384,733 ballots were processed .
Physically impossible.The spikes are strongly indicative of manual adjustment either by the operator of the system or an attack by outside actors .
• An affidavit from Eric Quinell , Ph.D. analyzed the extraordinary increase in turnout from 2016 to 2020 in a relatively small subset of townships and precincts outside of Detroit in Wayne County and Oakland County , and more importantly , how nearly 100 % or more of all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2020 voted for Biden .
Wayne County is Michigan ’ s largest metropolis and home to the city of Detroit .
• Evidence compiled by Braynard using the National Change of Address • ( “ NCOA ” ) database shows that 12,120 Michigan voters in the 2020 General Election moved out-of-state prior to voting and therefore were ineligible .
Mr. Braynerd identified 1,170 Michigan voters in the 2020 General Election who subsequently registered to vote in another state , and were therefore ineligible to vote in the 2020 General Election .
When duplicates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the merged number is 13,248 ineligible voters whose votes must be removed from the total for the 2020 General Election .
See Voter Integrity Project : Findings and Conclusions .
• Another separate nonpartisan effort by unpaid citizens and experts revealed hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots flagged as potentially fraudulent , leading statisticians to posit “ strong evidence ” exists that results were “ manipulated by a computer algorithm.
” Of the 3,507,129 ballots requested , the report flags hundreds of thousands of ballots with qualities such as “ duplicate ballot IDs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” or “ year of birth before 1921.

The order, reports USANews, actually stemmed from voter William Bailey, who alleged that ballots “were damaged during a recounting of ballots in a village marijuana proposal that narrowly passed. The Trump team used the opportunity to also gain access to the machines.”
“Our team is going to be able to go in this morning at about 8:30 and will be there for about eight hours to conduct that forensic examination and we’ll have the results in about 48 hours, and that’ll tell us a lot about these machines,” Trump election attorney Jenna Ellis told Fox News on Sunday, December 6th.
Preserving all records seems like a no brainer but apparently, according to John Basham, a retired AI Developer and former elected official, a memorandum, dated December 1st, Michigan election officials instructed all software & files associated with the election be deleted within seven days of canvassing.
Elsenheimer’s order comes after a back and forth decision by the Board of State Canvassers to certify Biden’s purported 154,000-vote victory in Michigan. Reportedly, a record number of Michiganders — over 5.4 million —participated in the electoral process this year.
To understand the level of chicanery in Michigan one has to pay attention to detail — which is where the devil lies — as well as the surmounting testimony of odd yet similar experiences. We start with the accounts of several vote dumps that first came in at approximately 4 am on Wednesday morning, showing that Joe Biden received almost 100 percent of the votes. Strange, given President Trump was leading by hundreds of thousands of votes as America went to sleep.
Many states, including Michigan, reported that counting stopped for several hours before the final tabulations, which theoretically can allow for an assessment of how many votes were “needed.”
“Imagine flipping a coin 4,645,908 times & getting heads 52% of the time — then, at 3AM, you flip it 154,000 times & it’s 100% tails — that’s Michigan,” Lara Trump said on December 7, via Twitter.

In Antrim, voting machines sparked controversy after a ‘software glitch’ caused some 6,000 votes in one county to switch from Trump to Biden. We didn’t yet know of Dominion. But later, Michigan officials claimed the glitch was not caused by Dominion machines or software, but related to a human error.
However, Powell’s lawsuit filed on behalf of Republicans against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and the Michigan Board of State Canvassers, affirms that the Dominion Voting Systems’ election management system and voting machines (tabulators) were indeed used in Antrim County and that they were the reason for the bug. Antrim was just one of 47 counties in Michigan that used Dominion Voting Systems to process their ballots.
Can examiners verify for certain that the system was safe from fraudulent or unauthorized manipulation? Was it really or glitch or is it a feature?
The Powell lawsuit further states that the State of Michigan entered into a contract with Dominion Systems’ Democracy Suite 4.14-D first, and then included Dominion Systems’ Democracy Suite 5.0-S on or about January 27, 2017, which added a fundamental modification: “dial-up and wireless results transmission capabilities to the ImageCast Precinct and results transmission using the Democracy Suite EMS Results Transfer Manager module.”
“While the glitch issue was identified and corrected after observers flagged the unlikeliness of the outcome, it’s unclear whether this issue replicated itself elsewhere,” writes an open petition for an independent audit.
During the Michigan senate hearing and via affidavit, Dominion contractor Melissa Carone, who worked at the TCF Center, said she witnessed countless workers rescanning batches without discarding them first – as required under Michigan rules and Dominion’s procedures – “which resulted in ballots being counted 4-5 times.” When Carone observed that a computer indicated that it had “a number of over 400 ballots scanned – which means one batch [of 50] was counted over eight times,” and complained to her Dominion supervisor, she was informed that “we are here to assist with IT work, not to run their election.”
“The Dominion System put in place by its own design violates the intent of Federal law on the requirement to preserve and retain records – which clearly requires preservation of all records requisite to voting in such an election. Dominion logs are only voluntary, with no system-wide preservation system. Without an incorruptible audit log, there is no acceptable system,” states the Powell lawsuit.
Dominion denies this and contends that their systems “are capable of producing paper records and are 100% auditable, with testing, reviews, audits, and recounts subject to oversight and verification by all political parties.”
As evidence of the risks of the Dominion Democracy Suite, as described above, the same Dominion Democracy Suite was denied certification in Texas by the Secretary of State on January 24, 2020, specifically to be safe from fraud or unauthorized manipulation.
More Mail-In Mischief In Michigan
Meanwhile in Detroit, an experienced ballot counter explained what she saw “has never happened in the 20 years of being in this business.” At the end of the day, when voting had stopped and they were ready to go home, suddenly a white van, a Chrysler, and a Ferrari pulled up with an estimated 130,000 additional ballots.
Detroit poll watcher Shane Trejo also witnessed 61 cases of mystery ballots showing up in the dead of night in a city elections van in Detroit at 3:30am Election Night. “No chain of custody, 7 1/2 hours of ballots in limbo…public will be shocked at the fraud.”
“This type of widespread fraud in the counting and processing of voter ballots cannot be allowed to stand,” said David A. Kallman, an attorney with the Great Lakes Justice Center, a non-profit corporation dealing with constitutional liberties and other civil rights issues, who filed an election crimes lawsuit in Wayne County Circuit Court in Detroit on November 8th. The complaint states that the criminal acts “disenfranchised lawful voters and potentially changed the outcome of the election.”
“Michigan citizens are entitled to know that their elections are conducted in a fair and legal manner and that every legal vote is properly counted.”
Following the elections, variations of irregularities soon surfaced, best detailed in a November 14th letter by Aric Nesbitt and other MI senators to Secretary of State Benson. Nesbitt had requested an audit prior to the certification.
As Sidney Powell summarizes in her lawsuit, “The fraud was executed by many means, but the most fundamentally troubling, insidious, and egregious is the systemic adaptation of old-fashioned ‘Ballot-stuffing.’”
Some of the allegations in Nesbitt’s letter include:
counting the same batches of ballots multiple times;
instructing poll workers to backdate absentee ballots;
counting late ballots after illicitly pre-dating them;
using false information to process ballots, such as using incorrect or false birthdays and inserting new names into the QVF and recorded these new voters as having a birthdate of 1/1/1900;
accepting ballots deposited in drop boxes after the deadline;
duplicating ballots illegally;
counting ballots even though the voter’s name did not appear in the official voter rolls;
ordering election workers to not verify voters’ signatures on absentee ballots
Some of these occurrences above are addressed in a lawsuit by The Amistad Project. One of their suits is also faulting MI Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson for providing Rock The Vote, a far-left activist group that identifies as “non-partisan,” with the private information of MI residents.
“We also have two other pre-election lawsuits still pending. Despite inaccurate reports from other media, those have not been dismissed. We were among the first and now we’re the last ones standing in the arena in Michigan,” explains Attorney Ian Northon, Special Counsel for The Amistad Project.

The Amistad Project claims officials counted 13,248 ballots cast by individuals who were registered to vote in another state. They also counted 317 ballots from people who voted more than once and 259 ballots from voters who listed only an email address instead of a physical address. Finally, election officials mailed out at least 74,000 absentee ballots that voters requested online.
The above image, which highlights 500,000+ unlawful ballots or illegal votes, is the main case pending before the Michigan Supreme Court.
After analyzing the data, experts observed more concrete patterns:
Cyber Security Analyst Expert Russell James Ramsland, Jr. noted a “physically impossible” event after analyzing voting machines in Michigan. He determined that the maximum processing capability was only 94,867 ballots, so that “there were 289,866 more ballots processed in the time available for processing in the four precincts/townships than the capacity allows.”

Wayne County is Michigan’s largest metropolis and home to the city of Detroit.
Evidence compiled by Braynard using the National Change of Address
(“NCOA”) database shows that 12,120 Michigan voters in the 2020 General Election moved out-of-state prior to voting and therefore were ineligible. Mr. Braynerd identified 1,170 Michigan voters in the 2020 General Election who subsequently registered to vote in another state, and were therefore ineligible to vote in the 2020 General Election. When duplicates from the two databases are eliminated, the merged number is 13,248 ineligible voters whose votes must be removed from the total for the 2020 General Election. See Voter Integrity Project: Findings and Conclusions.
Another separate nonpartisan effort by unpaid citizens and experts revealed hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots flagged as potentially fraudulent, leading statisticians to posit “strong evidence” exists that results were “manipulated by a computer algorithm.” Of the 3,507,129 ballots requested, the report flags hundreds of thousands of ballots with qualities such as “duplicate ballot IDs,” “missing ballot address,” or “year of birth before 1921.”

People worldwide DO NOT WANT “Smart” Meters – electric, gas, and water (see 1, 2). Tens of millions have been installed and millions more are planned despite all their problems – electrical issues, fires, explosions, measurement errors, serious cybersecurity risks (see 1, 2), and much more.
Customer rates are usually increased for their installation (see 1, 2) and frequent replacement (see 1, 2, 3). They DO NOT save meaningful amounts of energy.
Some Americans still aren’t allowed to opt-out of these horrible meters. Pennsylvania residents went to court and recently won the right to refuse them. That hasn’t deterred PECO from offering “Time of Use” rates for customers who still have them.
From The Philadelphia Inquirer:
Peco plans hourly rates to encourage customers to shift energy use to off-peak periods
Peco next year will start selling electricity to residents at cheaper rates at nonpeak hours, such as overnight, in a change that could cut bills for customers who are smart about when they use power, like the owners of electric cars who charge them after midnight.
The shift away from the current system, under which rates are the same around the clock, was approved Thursday by Pennsylvania regulators. It would also be an option for operators of shops and other commercial businesses. While utilities have supplied variable pricing to commercial and industrial customers for many years, residential customers have not warmly embraced the option when it was offered in pilot programs. Peco’s plan calls for three price tiers. The highest prices would be charged during peak hours, from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. The lowest prices would be available during “super off-peak” from midnight till 6 a.m. every day. A middle rate would apply in the mornings and evenings. Peco has not yet worked out exactly what to charge for the various tiers. The rates will go into effect in September 2021, and Peco will host a “collaborative meeting” four months before that to let people comment on its outreach plans. Peco said the new policy was designed to comply with a sweeping 2008 energy efficiency law, known as Act 129, that mandated that large electricity utilities adopt conservation plans and install smart meters.

Despite all the problems, utility companies continue to install and promote “Smart” Meters because they are VERY PROFITABLE. Unlike original analog meters, they are 2-way transmitting. This allows utilities to collect minute-by-minute customer usage data 24/7. Utilities collect and analyze this data so they can market more products and services to customers and/or sell data to 3rd parties.

These meters also allow them to remotely turn off services as well as ration energy. Because these meters are 2-way transmitting, they emit high levels of harmful electromagnetic radiation that can make people and animals sick (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).

In terms of election irregularities, Michigan has been a fast-moving USPS truck.
The Constitution & A Red Mirage
Has democracy itself been stolen in 2020?
As we head into week five of the election debacle, we’ve turned a corner to Undeniability Avenue where the preponderance of evidence — in the form of voting system vulnerabilities, good ol’ ballot stuffing, mailed ballots driven across state lines, ballot boxes hidden under tables and counted in secret, statistical anomalies, mathematical impossibilities, testimonies of forgery, and clear election code violations — is unassailable.

“There’s a whole lot of kabuki going on, but last week was a game-changer,” agrees Dr. Dave Janda, a retired orthopedic surgeon from Ann Arbor, Michigan, political commentator, data analyst, and host of Operation Freedom. “This is not a partisan issue. This is an American constitutional issue. This is a what’s right issue.”
Dr. Janda of Operation Freedom and Maryam Henein Discuss the Nitty Gritty of the Elections:
Attaching legitimacy to allegations of election fraud was reached in large part due to Sidney Powell’s two Kraken lawsuits filed in Michigan and Georgia, and legislative hearings held by President Trump’s lawyer, Mayor Rudy Guiliani. The testimonies heard in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan echo voter irregularities and violations found in the lawsuits.
“I find it very hard to dispute there weren’t shenanigans or vulnerabilities that impacted the vote,” says Rick Hanson, a former Oregon state election professional and 30-year registered Democrat. The ‘Democrat for Trump’ has been following the hearings and read both of Sidney’s suits with a neutral mind.
In addition, Matt Braynard, a data strategist who runs the Voter Integrity Project and a former data analyst on Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, also presented quantitative data analysis illustrating voter fraud. Following the release of data, the FBI requested he hand over his findings. His findings are also found in the lawsuits.
Braynard worked in conjunction with the non-profit The Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society, a national constitutional litigation organization. At a national press conference on December 2nd, whistleblowers came forward for the first time with accounts of massive ballot fraud. The Amistad Project also filed litigation in several key swing states including Michigan.
Yet despite the deluge of information, the mainstream media narrative’s stance is that there still is no substantiated incidences of election interference. Over time, they’ve gone from ‘there is no evidence,’ to ‘not enough evidence’ to ‘unproven conspiracies’ to ‘not enough widespread proof.’ Reporters, such as Lester Holt of NBC Nightly News, have failed to once mention that Senate committee hearings unfolded throughout the country. Rather, the presstitutes and parrots continue to parade Joe Biden as president-elect even though this isn’t legally accurate yet.

This is something that CNN analyst Fareed Zakaria actually explained earlier this month. This, Zakaria went on to add, would deprive Biden and Trump of reaching 270, and ultimately the election would be decided by the House of Representatives.
To reiterate, if the election goes to the secondary system set up to support the Electoral College, and if neither Trump nor Joe Biden gets 270 or more electoral votes, then the House of Representatives chooses the next president. And President Trump could win a second term.

“Humpty Dumpty (the system) is broken and needs to be fixed and put back together again,” adds Dr. Janda. The significant statutory violations are more than enough to warrant the legislature to take back its plenary power to determine its own electors.”

Via a press release, Kline went on to add that the December 8 “safe harbor” deadline for appointing presidential Electors does not apply to states where flagrant violations of state election laws affected the outcome of the popular vote. “In fact, the only Constitutionally-set date in the election process is the assumption of office by the President on January 20.”

activistpost--2020-12-08--How the Covid Response Has Destroyed the Personal Finances of Americans

Back when the virus that would soon be known as Covid-19 was just a blip on the radar , Selco wrote an article called , It ’ s Not the Virus You Need to Worry About .
It ’ s the System .
And like much of what Selco writes , it was prophetic .
Here we are , coming up on a year after the virus first began making itself apparent and the world is dramatically different .
Not only are there the inevitable arguments about masks , lockdowns , vaccines , and hypocritical politicians using the whole thing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are very real effects on everyday families all over the world .
In the United States , our personal finances have taken blow after blow .
Eight million more Americans than last year are now living in poverty as millions of jobs have disappeared , never to return .
Data from the review site Yelp shows that 60 % of the businesses that shut down due to Covid have permanently closed .
People who were formerly struggling are sinking , and many of those who were comfortably middle class are desperately trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so much the virus that has caused our financial woes – it ’ s the response to the virus .
Federal , state , and local governments have deemed what businesses are allowed to operate and how they must do so .
This has resulted in the loss of businesses themselves , loss of sales , and loss of jobs .
Nearly every family is feeling the effects to some degree .
Please check out our new frugality website for practical solutions if you are dealing with financial issues .
Here are some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ financially due to the response to the virus .
More people are living paycheck to paycheck .
Back in February of this year , a report was released that showed 40 % of American workers were living paycheck to paycheck .
That early 2020 , pre-lockdown report looks like a glimpse of nostalgia from the good old days .
A more recent report has found , due to the Covid response , that now almost two-thirds of Americans are living the paycheck to paycheck life .
Anyone who has ever lived through this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dance and it only takes one small thing to go wrong to cause your house of cards to come tumbling down .
NSF fees , late fees , reconnection fees , extra deposits , overdraft interest , and payday loans can all destroy the financially fragile , leaving them in a downward spiral designed to keep them trapped .
There ’ s a reason that broke people tend to stay broke , and it ’ s not because they ’ re simply lazy and irresponsible .
It ’ s because the system is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earns more money by charging poor people extra .
Hardly anyone has an emergency fund left .
Back in 2019 , Bankrate released a survey that said only 40 % of Americans would be able to pay for an emergency costing a thousand dollars out of their savings .
Yet again , those were the good old days .
A more recent survey said that an astounding EIGHTY TWO PERCENT of Americans could no longer handle an emergency costing $ 500 .
Zero Hedge reports : An emergency fund is the most important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people report making up the difference between their income and output with credit cards and other forms of personal debt .
Unfortunately , with our somber economic forecast , this is just delaying the inevitable implosion of their personal finances .
An October jobs report showed that millions of the positions lost back in March have not returned , and that millions of people have now reached the classification of “ long-term unemployment.
” The New York Times reported : In September and October , many large corporations made the decision to end @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things had just begun to look up just a little bit for those in service industries when the second round of lockdowns hit crushing the hopes of many of those who were just beginning to get back to work .
The closure of schools has kept many parents from returning to work or caused financial hardship .
It isn ’ t just the unavailability of jobs that has made things difficult .
The erratic 2020 school year has also caused financial hardship and in many cases , made it impossible for parents to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know a lot of homeschool parents will say that people shouldn ’ t be using public school as a free babysitter .
But the fact remains that many families require two incomes to survive .
In my case , as a single mom , the school year allowed me to make a living .
During the summer , my children had wonderful vacations with both sets of grandparents , mercifully , because paying for full-time childcare for both of them would have taken almost every dime I was earning , leaving nothing for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
If you aren ’ t familiar with current childcare costs , a person quoted in the article cited below reported that she and her husband were spending an eye-watering $ 5300 per month for their three children .
Financially speaking , women are suffering the most with regard to pandemic related job losses .
Hundreds of thousands of women left the workforce in September – approximately 849,000 – in comparison to 216,000 men .
Betsey Stevenson , a professor of public policy and economics at the University of Michigan , explained in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ affected .
I have more than one friend who has been attempting to oversee “ distance learning ” while keeping her job remotely and the stress levels are through the roof .
If you can ’ t afford a nanny or you don ’ t have a family member willing to take on the task , quite simply , someone is going to have to stop working at a time when we can least afford to have our incomes drop any further .
The price of food has increased dramatically .
Food prices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ row , according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization .
People around the world are seeing a 6.5 % increase in their costs of commodities such as cereals , dairy , vegetable oil , meat , and sugar .
But your trip to the local grocery store may look like a much greater increase than six and a half percent .
There ’ s a variety of reasons that prices have gone up .
Everything from supply chain shortages to production issues has caused costs to increase .
There are other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be experiencing sticker shock : There are also fewer sales : While the statistics only note a few percentage points , the real picture looks a lot different .
Don ’ t look for food prices to decrease any time soon .
Our supply chain is still broken and getting worse .
Another lockdown means that store owners will be trying to get the most money possible from customers in order to keep afloat for as long as possible .
The current price increases could be permanent .
The eviction moratorium runs out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matters even more difficult for struggling families , a federal moratorium on evictions will be running out on December 31 , leaving as many as 19 million people at risk of being homeless as 2021 begins .
A few states will continue eviction bans but most will follow the federal guidelines .
It ’ s important to note that people who were not paying rent based on the moratorium will now have to catch up immediately or risk being evicted .
It ’ s projected that 6.7 million households could be affected by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is , of course , a double-edged sword .
Not all rental property owners are massive corporate entities with teams of lawyers diligently searching for loopholes .
This has been a tremendous hit for Mom and Pop landlords , many of whom invested in real estate to have a bit of income during their retirement .
They have been unable to evict tenants who aren ’ t paying their rent but still had to maintain the property in a manner according to the local bylaws , pay their mortgage payments , and make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t going to be a magical solution .
A lot of folks have just written off 2020 as “ a bad year ” and seem to believe that the moment this year is over , the curse will be lifted and we ’ ll all be able to go on with our lives having survived it and gotten through it .
Unfortunately , the changes that I ’ ve written about aren ’ t going to disappear when you put that new calendar on the wall .
Businesses that hung on through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inventory could be closing right after the holiday , leaving even more jobs in the dust .
Lockdowns could very well become even more stringent after the inauguration , which would keep all the same problems going .
It ’ s time to redouble your preparedness efforts and really examine your situation .
This has been more than a pandemic .
It ’ s been a major economic catastrophe , just as predicted , and we ’ re in it for the long haul .

Back when the virus that would soon be known as Covid-19 was just a blip on the radar, Selco wrote an article called, It’s Not the Virus You Need to Worry About. It’s the System. And like much of what Selco writes, it was prophetic.
Here we are, coming up on a year after the virus first began making itself apparent and the world is dramatically different. Not only are there the inevitable arguments about masks, lockdowns, vaccines, and hypocritical politicians using the whole thing as a power grab, but there are very real effects on everyday families all over the world.
In the United States, our personal finances have taken blow after blow. Eight million more Americans than last year are now living in poverty as millions of jobs have disappeared, never to return. Data from the review site Yelp shows that 60% of the businesses that shut down due to Covid have permanently closed. People who were formerly struggling are sinking, and many of those who were comfortably middle class are desperately trying to stay afloat.
It isn’t so much the virus that has caused our financial woes – it’s the response to the virus. Federal, state, and local governments have deemed what businesses are allowed to operate and how they must do so. This has resulted in the loss of businesses themselves, loss of sales, and loss of jobs. Nearly every family is feeling the effects to some degree. Please check out our new frugality website for practical solutions if you are dealing with financial issues.
Here are some of the ways American families are suffering financially due to the response to the virus.
More people are living paycheck to paycheck.
Back in February of this year, a report was released that showed 40% of American workers were living paycheck to paycheck.
Willis Towers Watson’s Global Benefits Attitudes Survey discovered that although 58 percent of workers think their finances are heading in the right direction, 38 percent of employees are living paycheck to paycheck… …Almost one-fifth of those making more than $100,000 are living paycheck to paycheck, and about one-third say their financial problems negatively affect their lives. The survey polled 8,000 American workers. (source)
That early 2020, pre-lockdown report looks like a glimpse of nostalgia from the good old days. A more recent report has found, due to the Covid response, that now almost two-thirds of Americans are living the paycheck to paycheck life.
With government shutdowns forcing countless businesses to close and then lay off workers, one in four respondents now feel their income is not stable. Nearly two in three (63%) say they’re going paycheck-to-paycheck since March 2020. Millennials seem to be the hardest hit, with 64 percent saying they’re living off their paychecks. “After the unemployment rate spiked to more than 14% in April, Americans continue to be wary about their job security and income,” writes Highland President Jon Berbaum in a media release. (source)
Anyone who has ever lived through this situation knows that paycheck-to-paycheck is a delicate dance and it only takes one small thing to go wrong to cause your house of cards to come tumbling down.
NSF fees, late fees, reconnection fees, extra deposits, overdraft interest, and payday loans can all destroy the financially fragile, leaving them in a downward spiral designed to keep them trapped. There’s a reason that broke people tend to stay broke, and it’s not because they’re simply lazy and irresponsible. It’s because the system is set up in a way that it earns more money by charging poor people extra.
Hardly anyone has an emergency fund left.
Back in 2019, Bankrate released a survey that said only 40% of Americans would be able to pay for an emergency costing a thousand dollars out of their savings. Yet again, those were the good old days.
A more recent survey said that an astounding EIGHTY TWO PERCENT of Americans could no longer handle an emergency costing $500. Zero Hedge reports:
But perhaps the most alarming number from the entire survey: a whopping 82% of respondents said they wouldn’t be able to cover an emergency $500 expense without borrowing money. For context, prior to the pandemic, surveys showed that roughly half of Americans couldn’t afford a $500 emergency expense, which means the number of people who say they couldn’t cover a small emergency has risen by 60%. (source)
An emergency fund is the most important financial prep you can make.
When your finances are tight, sometimes your first impulse is to spend every dime. Many people focus on things like paying off debts, stocking up on food and supplies, or paying more than the minimum payments on bills. However, that may not be your best bet. Don’t get me wrong – paying off debt is absolutely vital, but most experts recommend establishing an emergency fund as the first step back to financial security. (source)
Many people report making up the difference between their income and output with credit cards and other forms of personal debt. Unfortunately, with our somber economic forecast, this is just delaying the inevitable implosion of their personal finances.
People are unable to find work.
An October jobs report showed that millions of the positions lost back in March have not returned, and that millions of people have now reached the classification of “long-term unemployment.” The New York Times reported:
The Labor Department said on Friday that 2.4 million people had been out of work for 27 weeks or more, the threshold it uses to define long-term joblessness. An even bigger surge is on the way: Nearly five million people are approaching long-term joblessness over the next two months. The same report showed that even as temporary layoffs were on the decline, permanent job losses were rising sharply. Those two problems — rising long-term unemployment and permanent job losses — are separate but intertwined and, together, could foreshadow a period of prolonged economic damage and financial pain for American families. Companies that are limping along below capacity this far into the crisis may be increasingly unlikely to ever recall their employees. History also suggests the longer that people are out of work, the harder it is for them to get back into a job. (source)
In September and October, many large corporations made the decision to end even more jobs.
Disney announced this past week that it would lay off 28,000 U.S. employees as its theme parks struggle. Layoff notices filed with state authorities show that hospitality and service companies across the country, from P.F. Chang’s restaurant branches to Gap stores, are making thousands of long-term staff reductions. Airport bookstores in Pennsylvania and Tennessee are cutting jobs as travel dwindles. So are wineries and upscale sports clubs in California. Airline job cuts run to the tens of thousands. American Airlines started to send furlough notices to 19,000 workers and United Airlines to 13,000 after a federal moratorium expired on Thursday. Those are on top of reductions at other carriers, and existing firings across the industry. Altogether, nearly 3.8 million people had lost their jobs permanently in September, according to the Labor Department’s latest monthly survey, almost twice as many as at the height of the pandemic job losses, in April. (source)
And then, things had just begun to look up just a little bit for those in service industries when the second round of lockdowns hit crushing the hopes of many of those who were just beginning to get back to work.
The closure of schools has kept many parents from returning to work or caused financial hardship.
It isn’t just the unavailability of jobs that has made things difficult. The erratic 2020 school year has also caused financial hardship and in many cases, made it impossible for parents to return to work.
Now, I know a lot of homeschool parents will say that people shouldn’t be using public school as a free babysitter. But the fact remains that many families require two incomes to survive. In my case, as a single mom, the school year allowed me to make a living. During the summer, my children had wonderful vacations with both sets of grandparents, mercifully, because paying for full-time childcare for both of them would have taken almost every dime I was earning, leaving nothing for housing, food, and other costs.
If you aren’t familiar with current childcare costs, a person quoted in the article cited below reported that she and her husband were spending an eye-watering $5300 per month for their three children.
While wealthier parents can afford to “get creative,” lower income and many single parents have far fewer options, said Caitlyn Collins, a professor of sociology at Washington University in St. Louis who studies women and families. Some are leaning on family members or just doing the best they can on their own. Others have been laid off, or have had to quit their jobs to take care of their kids… …The United States has been an outlier on child care long before the coronavirus, Collins said, with price tags far exceeding those in other high-income countries. The average cost of child care for a child under 4 is $9,589 per year, according to New America’s Care Report — more than the average cost of in-state college tuition. It’s much more expensive in big cities: In Washington, D.C., the average cost of care for an infant is more than $24,000. Rising child care costs are particularly “terrifying” for U.S. families, Collins said, because child care already accounts for an enormous part of their budget, often second only to a family’s rent or mortgage. (source)
Financially speaking, women are suffering the most with regard to pandemic related job losses. Hundreds of thousands of women left the workforce in September – approximately 849,000 – in comparison to 216,000 men. Betsey Stevenson, a professor of public policy and economics at the University of Michigan, explained in an interview why women have been unevenly affected.
…the age group that had the biggest decline was thirty-five to forty-four. And it’s not at all surprising to me, in the sense that the people who are really struggling are people with young kids and multiple kids at home. It’s the parents who have a four-year-old, a six-year-old, and a nine-year-old, and those kids are at home, and they’re trying to do Zoom school. It’s really difficult. Even if both parents had the opportunity to work from home, that’s a really hard thing to manage. I want to make sure that I emphasize that that’s one kind of hardship, and then there’s another kind of hardship, which is parents or single moms who had an in-person job and no child care. (source)
I have more than one friend who has been attempting to oversee “distance learning” while keeping her job remotely and the stress levels are through the roof. If you can’t afford a nanny or you don’t have a family member willing to take on the task, quite simply, someone is going to have to stop working at a time when we can least afford to have our incomes drop any further.
The price of food has increased dramatically.
Food prices increased for the fifth month in a row, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. People around the world are seeing a 6.5% increase in their costs of commodities such as cereals, dairy, vegetable oil, meat, and sugar.
But your trip to the local grocery store may look like a much greater increase than six and a half percent. There’s a variety of reasons that prices have gone up. Everything from supply chain shortages to production issues has caused costs to increase. There are other Covid-related reasons that explain why you may be experiencing sticker shock:
Shift to eating at home: In a matter of two months, approximately $23 billion in consumer spending away from home was redirected toward grocery stores as restaurants were forced to close due to COVID-19, according to FMI – The Food Industry Association. Loss of foodservice demand: When restaurants closed, farmers and ranchers lost a key channel for their product. With fewer buyers, it is costly or impractical to harvest, preserve or store some food and beverage products.Increasing production and processing costs: During COVID-19, companies have made investments and adjustments to safeguard their products and employees. This means costs for food production are higher. Some manufacturers have been able to innovate and find new markets for their products, but these changes often entail added costs. Increasing operating costs for grocery stores: Compared to 2019, supermarket operating costs were up 7.9% in April 2020 and 6.7% in May 2020, according to USDA Economic Research Service. Grocery stores have remained open during the pandemic and have had to quickly adjust to new regulations, safety and sanitation practices and enhanced customer education – all requiring resources. In addition, some areas of the grocery store, including salad bars and hot bars, have had to shut down, meaning a loss of revenue. (source)
There are also fewer sales:
Usually, 31.4% of grocery store items are purchased on some sort of sale, but at the end of September the share was 26%, according to market research firm Nielsen. The biggest impact was in the household care department, where just 15% of items were sold on promotion, half the usual amount. Heightened consumer demand and strained supply are giving stores little reason to mark down prices, Nielsen said. (source)
While the statistics only note a few percentage points, the real picture looks a lot different.
Eva Rosol was stunned during the summer when a rotisserie chicken that she could normally find on sale for $6 suddenly set her back $15… ….Ariel Neal, owner of Leira Knows Cocktails and Events, has been opting for more potatoes and starches and fewer fruits and vegetables…She didn’t qualify for unemployment benefits or small business relief, and has been subsisting on her savings and the government’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps. “Before, $20 would have gotten me at least two to three meals,” said Neal, 42, who lives in Calumet City. “Twenty dollars doesn’t do that anymore.” …Yvernia Wilson, who is on a fixed income and vigilant about grocery prices, was taken aback early in the summer when a large package of hamburger meat she’d normally pay $8.99 for was listed at $14 at the Jewel-Osco she shops at on Chicago’s South Side. A nice-sized pot roast for Sunday dinner was almost $20, $6 more than she’d usually spend. Even a package of chicken wings cost $3 more… …Wilson restricts herself to two meats and for some items has resorted to buying cheaper brands she doesn’t necessarily like. She bypasses the organic aisle and sometimes forgoes fruit altogether if it isn’t on sale. (source)
Don’t look for food prices to decrease any time soon. Our supply chain is still broken and getting worse. Another lockdown means that store owners will be trying to get the most money possible from customers in order to keep afloat for as long as possible. The current price increases could be permanent.
The eviction moratorium runs out soon.
And finally, to make matters even more difficult for struggling families, a federal moratorium on evictions will be running out on December 31, leaving as many as 19 million people at risk of being homeless as 2021 begins. A few states will continue eviction bans but most will follow the federal guidelines.
It’s important to note that people who were not paying rent based on the moratorium will now have to catch up immediately or risk being evicted.
The federal mandate doesn’t prohibit late fees (although ), nor does it let tenants off the hook for any back rent they owe. It also doesn’t establish any kind of financial assistance fund to help renters get caught up, a safeguard some say is critical to preventing a massive wave of evictions when the ban eventually lifts…be aware that you may still be held responsible for any back rent you currently owe as well as any rent that accrues between now and the end of your lease (if you have one), whether or not you vacate. (source)
It’s projected that 6.7 million households could be affected by the end of the moratorium.
This is, of course, a double-edged sword. Not all rental property owners are massive corporate entities with teams of lawyers diligently searching for loopholes. This has been a tremendous hit for Mom and Pop landlords, many of whom invested in real estate to have a bit of income during their retirement. They have been unable to evict tenants who aren’t paying their rent but still had to maintain the property in a manner according to the local bylaws, pay their mortgage payments, and make timely property tax payments.
2021 isn’t going to be a magical solution.
A lot of folks have just written off 2020 as “a bad year” and seem to believe that the moment this year is over, the curse will be lifted and we’ll all be able to go on with our lives having survived it and gotten through it.
Unfortunately, the changes that I’ve written about aren’t going to disappear when you put that new calendar on the wall. Businesses that hung on through Christmas to try and sell their remaining inventory could be closing right after the holiday, leaving even more jobs in the dust. Lockdowns could very well become even more stringent after the inauguration, which would keep all the same problems going. It’s time to redouble your preparedness efforts and really examine your situation.
This has been more than a pandemic. It’s been a major economic catastrophe, just as predicted, and we’re in it for the long haul.

Tallahassee, FL — Earlier this year in May, Rebekah Jones, the data scientist working for Florida, who put together that state’s COVID-19 database, made national headlines when she was fired by the state over a disagreement in reporting the numbers. Jones says she was fired for refusing to manipulate data that showed a higher number of deaths while the state claimed she was fired for insubordination. Fast-forward to this month, and what started as a firing ended with armed agents of the state allegedly pointing guns at an entire family, during a raid on their Florida home.
After she was fired in May, Jones made the following claim:
I was asked by DOH leadership to manually change numbers. This was a week before the reopening plan officially kicked off into phase one. I was asked to do the analysis and present the findings about which counties met the criteria for reopening. The criteria followed more or less the White House panel’s recommendations, but our epidemiology team also contributed to that as well. As soon as I presented the results, they were essentially the opposite of what they had anticipated. The whole day while we’re having this kind of back and forth changing this, not showing that, the plan was being printed and stapled right in front of me. So it was very clear at that point that the science behind the supposedly science-driven plan didn’t matter because the plan was already made.
After she was fired, Jones continued her work reporting the numbers by starting the website Florida COVID Action, which is a dashboard of Florida COVID information, like the one she used to run for the state. Since then, she’s been running this site without much resistance from the state — until now.
On Monday, multiple armed officers entered her home, pulled her out, before she says they began pointing guns at her children and husband.

There will be no update today. At 8:30 am this morning, state police came into my house and took all my hardware and tech. They were serving a warrant on my computer after DOH filed a complaint. They pointed a gun in my face. They pointed guns at my kids.. pic.twitter.com/DE2QfOmtPU — Rebekah Jones (@GeoRebekah) December 7, 2020
Jones claims that she was raided for simply reporting the data and “speaking truth to power,” but the state says someone hacked their emergency alert system and it was traced back to Jones’ IP address.
In a statement, FDLE Commissioner Rick Swearingen confirmed hardware was seized at Jones’ home, and an investigation was underway into a potential computer system hacking.
“Our investigation began last month following a complaint by Florida Department of Health that a person illegally hacked into their emergency alert system,” the statement reads, in part. “As part of our investigation, FDLE agents served a search warrant this morning at the Centerville Court residence where Ms. Jones lives after determining the home was the location that the unauthorized message was sent from.”

This is what happens to scientists who do their job honestly. This is what happens to people who speak truth to power. I tell them my husband and my two children are upstairs… and THEN one of them draws his gun. On my children. This is Desantis' Florida. — Rebekah Jones (@GeoRebekah) December 7, 2020
Jones has vehemently denied she had anything to do with this:
“I’m not a hacker,” Jones said. She added that the language in the message that authorities said was sent was “not the way I talk,” and contained errors she would not make. “The number of deaths that the person used wasn’t even right,” Jones said. “They were actually under by about 430 deaths. I would never round down 430 deaths.”
Monday evening, the state released the text of the warrant and claimed that they gave Jones ample time to come out — 20 minutes — but she refused.
“Agents knocked and called Ms. Jones both announcing the search warrant and encouraging her to cooperate. Ms. Jones refused to come to the door for 20 minutes and hung-up on agents,” the FDLE statement reads, in part. “After several attempts, Ms. Jones allowed agents inside. Agents entered the home in accordance with normal protocols and seized several devices that will be forensically analyzed.

Restaurant Industry Warns Of “Economic Free Fall” As 110,000 Eateries And Counting Are Permanently Shuttered

The National Restaurant Association (NRA) sent a damning letter to Congress today (Dec. 7) addressing the collapse of more than one hundred thousand restaurants across the country this year because of the virus pandemic. In just the last three months, the letter said more than 10,000 eateries have closed, and thousands of others are in “economic freefall.”
The letter goes into detail about the association’s most recent nationwide survey, which determines that most restaurants are still experiencing a plunge in sales revenue. Many operators believe more furloughs or layoffs are imminent. As we noted last week, the layoffs have already begun.
“What these findings make clear is that more than 500,000 restaurants of every business type— franchise, chain, and independent—are in an unprecedented economic decline. And for every month that passes without a solution from Congress, thousands of more restaurants across the country will close their doors for good,” Sean Kennedy, executive vice president of public affairs at the association, said in a letter to Congress.
According to the association’s survey,
87% of full-service restaurants (independent, chain, and franchise) report an average 36% drop in sales revenue. For an industry with an average profit margin of 5%-6%, this is simply unsustainable . 83% of full-service operators expect sales to be even worse over the next three months.
For an industry with an average profit margin of 5%-6%, this is simply . Although sales are significantly lower for most independent and franchise owners, their costs have not fallen by a proportional level. 59% of operators say their total labor costs (as a percentage of sales) are higher than they were pre-pandemic.
The future remains bleak. 58% of chain and independent full-service operators expect continued furloughs and layoffs for at least the next three months.
The tsunami of restaurant closures and bankruptcies will continue to rise through 2021 – leading to deep economic scarring and permanent job loss. The association predicts “as of today, 17% of restaurants—more than 110,000 establishments—are completely closed.”
The findings come as the industry continues to deal with the devastating impact of the virus pandemic. State and local governments are imposing strict indoor limitations on restaurants or even, in some cases, banning indoor dining.
It’s not just the virus and draconian public health measures from governments that restaurant operators have to deal with – they also have to contend with Mother Nature. As we’ve previously noted, citing a Goldman Sachs report, foot traffic to restaurants will start to plunge when the outside temperature drops below 45°F.
The National Restaurant Association hopes that the letter will pressure Congress to act and provide aid to restaurants once the new stimulus package is approved to help them survive under circumstances that are being forced upon them by policymakers who seem to be ignoring the science, and following the politics.
