lewrockwell--2020-08-19--Is It Time for Civil Disobedience Against The Covid-19 Cult?

This is today .
It is not 1933 .
But the global mob rule we are witnessing is as old as the hills .
As old , in fact , as the ancient Greeks who warned that the Herd Instinct , when married to Herd Ignorance , would inevitably lead to the Führerprinzip .
Plato predicted this earlier than most , but latterly George Orwell offered us a more exact description .
For some forty years now , the Internationalist bourgeois Left has treated Nineteen Eighty-Four as a blueprint .
Bizarrely , the globalist/blocist Corporate State builders have been doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Guardian ’ s Executive Editor instructed her journalists in 2016 to call Climate Change doubters deniers .
This same collective noun is now being extended to Covid19 empiricists .
But at the same time , unelected bureaucracies have promoted those like top UK civil servant Sir Mark Sedwill and US Global Pharma creature Dr Fauci to positions of enormous power and influence….using completely unregulated censorship at will to dub contrarian Covid19 commentators ‘ Science deniers ‘ .
Crises of the Republic ... Arendt , Hannah Best Price : $ 11.00 Buy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one socio-political issue after another has been treated to the same formula of rigid ‘ framing ’ .
Those with doubts about the multicultural model of society are diversity deniers .
Supporters of Brexit are Little Engander globalism deniers….and racists to boot .
Those noting the spread of Islamic Jihadism and Pakistani rape gangs are Islamophobes .
Critics of some elements of male homosexual lifestyles are homophobes .
Attacks on the radical feminist creed are the work of sexists lasciviously obsessed with male rape .
Over time , such framing has trickled down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the mass electorate , creating a knee jerk mode of acceptance I call ‘ Estuary pc ’ ….such that , in 2012 I employed a plumber who actually said , “ In terdayzz mult-culchural-siety , that is a totelee hunacceptable dibollikal libe ’ ee ” .
The link back to the shot of Hitler Youth at the head of the post is extremely pertinent : for acceptance is now turning into not just unquestioning obedience , but also demands that contrarians be told to shut up ‘ for the Common Good ’ .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ narrative , we have all been treated to the Holier than Thou fascist who begins with “ It ’ s people like you that… ” .
Who has not coughed in a queue for shopping and been greeted by glares from others ?
During the 2016 Brexit referendum , the day after Jo Cox ’ s assassination Leave supporters were treated to threats , and screams of “ murderers ” – Nigel Farage ( not even remotely connected to the alleged assassin ) was accused of being responsible for inciting the attack .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ rapidly creating a self-styled mob of Spanish Inquisitors – precisely the sort of bullying that led to the furious Groupthink of Krystallnacht eighty-five years ago .
Whether that mob be Momentum , The London Times , Antifa , the New York Times , Channel Four , Common Purpose , Black Lives Matter or the BBC , there is an enthusiasm for – an asumption , in fact – that the Bertold Brecht Weltanschauung of The Good Lie is not only acceptable , it is essential .
The naysayers must be silenced .
So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : Civ ... Lovell , Jarret S. Best Price : $ 14.00 Buy New $ 26.81 Such does not exactly provide rich soil for the discernment of lies and promotion of more effective ( as in , less tunnel-vision ) policy .
84 % of Brits now see Lockdown and the wearing of masks as ‘ necessary to control the virus ’ , even though the masks on offer are close to useless and lockdown has been shown to achieve little beyond approaching national bankruptcy .
Nor is the climate of ignorant fear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forward obvious contradictions between policies in use and the “ science ” they are supposedly led by .
And finally , the construction of informed conjecture about the real purposes of whipped-up Covid19 fears is so far beyond the closed mind , it is dismissed at Twitter – the ancestral home of bullying – with insults like “ you thick c**t ” .
All this darkness accepted , here and there one sees some signs that the largely silent Thinkers – estimated at around 16 % of the adult population – are beginning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more to do with globalist finance , multinational Pharma profits and surveillance permissions than anything remotely approaching “ science ” .
This therefore seems to me like a good opportunity to take one overriding element of the majority approach to Covid19 – a fairly easy one to understand – and leave both the Mob and the Establishment with a question they will surely find it impossible to fend off .
From Day 1 of the Covid19 saga , we have been watching a tug-of-war between two sets of medical interests .
The highly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creating a Covid19 drug-trials niche for itself by raising all kinds of methodological anomalies in relation to the Recovery trials being headed up by Peter Horby .
The articles are compelling because the paper ’ s director of publications Xavier Azalbert is that rare thing , a distinguished scientist who then switched to journalism .
But although the telling findings fly over the heads of most of the population , Azalbert ’ s overview about who the politicians listen to in the field of virology is a fascinating one that , for me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ferguson ( the man of multi-billion Pound mistakes ) is an epidemiologist , and professor of mathematical biology .
He has never been a medical practitioner in his life .
Peter Horby is an epidemiologist , and Professor of Emerging Infectious Diseases and Global Health .
He has never been a medical practitioner in his life .
Anthony Fauci ’ s first degree was in classics .
He went on to medical school later .
The sum total of his clinical experience was a two-year hospital internship from 1966-68 .
He has never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Chris Whitty , UK Chief Medical Officer , worked as a doctor and researcher in Africa and Asia and is a practising NHS consultant .
He has never worked in general practice , and his total experience in the current century has been as a Professor , administrator and public sector office holder at Gresham College and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine ( LSHTM ) .
In 2008 , the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation awarded the LSHTM £31 million for malaria research in Africa .
At the time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ACT Consortium , which conducted the research programme .
I probably don ’ t need to remind you of the lingering ethical doubts relating to that “ vaccination ” programme .
Undercover Epicenter N ... Olszewski , Erin Marie Buy New $ 24.29 Ferguson , Horby and Fauci also have a long history of being funded by Big Pharma .
In short , the front line of Anglo-Saxon advice to government are all people Low in clinical experience and High in Big Pharma funding .
They are model builders , theorists and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and little or no depth in the vital process of patient obervation .
Their careers , needless to say , are all littered with groundless alarmism , major mistakes in counsel and the belief that vaccination is the answer to every problem….even a virus which , many practising medics contend , is highly unlikely to ever work on a mutating coronavirus – let alone within two years to include drug trials .
This is the tug-of-war team that has a monopoly on access to government .
The other team – the practical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ depicted as minority nutjobs , eccentrics , headline-chasers , small-time and narrow deniers – there ’ s that word again – who are a constant risk to millions of human lives , and must be ignored .
In fact , never mind ignored – for the good of the cause , they must be smeared , censored and refused access to the debate .
In fact , it is the Horbys and Faucis that are the tiny minority infecting genuine medical science with their corrupted ideological creeds and flakey models .
So now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ question that the Establishment war-tuggers and the hopelessly general political class they blind with science can ’ t avoid : why are you listening only to atypical academic twaddle-theorists with conflicts of interest who have at best been hopelessly wrong and at worst lied about Covid death stats and ruthlessly manipulated drug test trials ?
This is in no way an unfair framing of the question .
Ferguson ’ s death toll estimate was wrong , Horby ’ s drug trial of HCQ was fiddled , the entire process of lockdown was unaffordably @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the area of protecting the vulnerable , there is an inquiry going on into PHE ’ s massively overestimated UK death toll , and the Horby trials are being redone at yet more public cost .
Dr Fauci has deliberately misled the American People about HCQ , and his conduct has been the subject of some excoriating criticisms by the practitioners ’ supporter , the American Medical Association .
Somewhere Under The Ra ... Webb , George Buy New $ 1.99 As I said , for the time being – until such time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it simple .
To those who are awake , the reasons why all these dubious activities – the Bigging Up of Covid19 – have been undertaken are clear .
Nevertheless , park the power , money , geopolitical and Alt State hegemony madness and focus on this one question : why are you still taking the advice of the folks who ’ ve fucked up ?
Yesterday , Chris Whitty flatly stated that “ Coronavirus cases are rising in the UK because ministers pushed lockdown easing measures to their limits ” .
He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to get the UK back to normal by Christmas , insisting that “ relaxing rules further will absolutely , inevitably lead to a resurgence of the virus.
” Whitty put his foot down : lockdown loosening measures had to be ‘ stopped now ’ and maybe even ‘ pulled back a bit ’ because they risk allowing another large-scale outbreak in the future .
This was based on a daily death toll figure of 38 .
Out of 76 million .
In the US on the same day , the light use of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 330 million .
Lockdown has been at the very best a questionable policy , and a certain gdp disaster for a Britain that can ill afford one .
Whitty is not interested in even considering that his strategy ( which , let ’ s face it , not a single government anywhere knows how to emerge from ) is flawed , that the dangers are wildly overstated , and that Britain must move on or collapse .
And Boris Johnson ’ s Cabinet shows no sign of even considering that Whitty is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dangerous fool .

lewrockwell--2020-08-19--US Paying Billions for Free Covid-19 Vaccines

July 22 , 2020 , Pfizer struck a $ 1.95 billion deal with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Defense to provide Americans with 100 million doses of its COVID-19 vaccine , for free , with an option for 500 million additional doses.1 The agreement is part of Operation Warp Speed .
Pfizer/BioNTech have also inked a deal with the U.K. government for 30 million initial doses.2 The vaccine , currently known only as BNT162 , developed in partnership with the German company BioNTech , requires two doses , which means the initial batch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people .
The deal hinges on the vaccine clearing Phase 3 human trials .
According to a July 22 , 2020 , press release,3 Phase 2b/3 safety and efficacy trials were expected to begin at the end of July .
The company expects seeking a regulatory review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in October 2020 , which would allow them to manufacture the 100 million doses by the end of the year .
Technocracy : The Hard ... Wood , Patrick M. Best Price : $ 33.00 Buy New $ 24.59 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must be at least 50 % effective to qualify for approval.4 In other words , the standards aren ’ t particularly high , despite the concern COVID-19 supposedly poses .
The BNT162 vaccine is based on BioNTech ’ s proprietary mRNA technology .
BioNTech is the market authorization holder for the mRNA technology worldwide , and will own all the trademarks for the vaccine.5 According to Pfizer ’ s press release:6 Former FDA Commissioner Is Now on Pfizer Board of Directors Interestingly enough , Dr. Scott Gottlieb , who served as commissioner of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2019,8 just so happened to be elected to Pfizer ’ s board of directors at the end of June 2019 .
At the time , Ian Read , executive chairman of Pfizer ’ s board of directors stated:9 Well , there can be little doubt that a former FDA commissioner on your board might be an asset when you ’ re trying to secure a nearly $ 2 billion contract with the U.S. government for a novel vaccine that has never been approved by the FDA for human use .
Technocracy Rising : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Price : $ 30.00 Buy New $ 24.00 As discussed in “ Why Most Health Commissioners End Up in Bed With Big Pharma , ” Gottlieb is far from alone in having walked through that revolving door .
After leaving the top leadership position at the FDA , nine of the last 10 commissioners have gone on to work for pharmaceutical companies .
While none of these moves of past FDA commissioners to pharmaceutical companies is illegal , the pattern creates the suspicion there might be an unstated agreement between the pharmaceutical industry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the approval of their products .
Another egregious example was Julie Gerberding , who served as the director of the CDC from 2002 to 2009 .
Immediately after leaving the CDC , she became president of Merck ’ s vaccine division , for which she received tens of millions of dollars a year — far more than her CDC salary .
As detailed in the preliminary study10 results , posted on the preprint server medRxiv July 20 , 2020 , BNT162b1 is a lipid nanoparticle ( LNP ) formulated nucleoside-modified mRNA that encodes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein .
mRNA vaccines have never before been licensed for use in humans .
Inside your cells , mRNA activate DNA instructions , and act as a template to build a specific protein .
The theory behind mRNA vaccines is that when you inject the mRNA ( encapsulated within lipid nanoparticles ) , the mRNA will stimulate your cells to manufacture their own viral proteins.11 In this case , those proteins would mimic the proteins found in SARS-CoV-2 .
Conventional vaccines train your body to recognize and respond to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ injecting a small amount of the actual viral protein into your body , thereby triggering an immune response and the development of antibodies .
No previous vaccines have had your own cells produce the viral proteins responsible for producing immunity .
mRNA vaccines are designed to make your body produce its own viral protein , which your immune system would then mount a response to .
If you suspect a whole lot could go wrong here , you ’ d probably be right .
As reported by The Vaccine Reaction:12 Systemic inflammation , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ small matters .
In fact , these are in large part why previous attempts to create a coronavirus vaccine have failed .
As explained by Robert F. Kennedy , Jr. , in my interview with him , coronavirus vaccines are notorious for creating paradoxical immune enhancement .
Even though the vaccines create a robust antibody response , the subjects end up sicker than normal when they ’ re exposed to the wild virus .
In one ferret study , all the vaccinated animals died .
Drug Wars : How Big Pha ... Robin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : $ 16.12 Buy New $ 8.21 Time will tell just how hazardous the COVID-19 vaccines turn out to be .
Since they work on the genetic level , there could be long-term , perhaps even generational , issues that won ’ t be readily apparent anytime soon , as these vaccines could be integrated into your DNA .
Be Wary of the PR Propaganda Spin A July 21 , 2020 , Wired article urges researchers and media to be upfront and transparent about the vaccines ’ side effects right now , “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the skeptics ” :14 Wired points out that some trials are not using an inert placebo but rather injected meningococcal vaccine , which might hide certain symptoms or harms .
Another example : The University of Oxford added study arms in which subjects are given acetaminophen every six hours for the first 24 hours after inoculation .
Is the pain and fever reducer given to mask and downplay certain symptoms and side effects , such as pain , fever , headache or general malaise ?
It very well could be .
Wired notes:15 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Best Price : $ 38.43 Buy New $ 33.29 Indeed , medical experts have already expressed concerns that COVID-19 vaccine uptake might end up being low .
As reported by Newsday June 21 , 2020:16 That Newsday article also inadvertently provides clues as to why most states are now , months into the pandemic , which has long since been “ flattened , ” issuing mandatory mask mandates , even though the science clearly tell us masks can not protect against or prevent the spread of viruses .
I believe the forced mask @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into taking the vaccine , once it becomes available , and that is exactly what Noel Brewer alludes to in the Newsday article:17 The Best of Joseph Mercola

The FDA has stated a COVID-19 vaccine must be at least 50% effective to qualify for approval.4 In other words, the standards aren’t particularly high, despite the concern COVID-19 supposedly poses.
The BNT162 vaccine is based on BioNTech’s proprietary mRNA technology. BioNTech is the market authorization holder for the mRNA technology worldwide, and will own all the trademarks for the vaccine.5 According to Pfizer’s press release:6
“The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine development program is evaluating at least four experimental vaccines, each of which represents a unique combination of messenger RNA (mRNA) format and target antigen. On July 1st, Pfizer and BioNTech announced preliminary data7 from BNT162b1, the most advanced of the four mRNA formulations.
The data demonstrates that BNT162b1 is able to produce neutralizing antibodies in humans at or above the levels observed in the plasma from patients who have recovered from COVID-19 … Local reactions and systemic events were dose-dependent, generally mild to moderate, and transient. No serious adverse events were reported.”

Interestingly enough, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, who served as commissioner of the FDA from May 2017 to April 2019,8 just so happened to be elected to Pfizer’s board of directors at the end of June 2019. At the time, Ian Read, executive chairman of Pfizer’s board of directors stated:9
“We are fortunate to have Dr. Gottlieb join Pfizer’s Board of Directors. Scott’s expertise in health care, public policy and the industry will be an asset to our company and enable our shareholders to continue to benefit from a Board representing a balance of experience, competencies and perspectives.”
Well, there can be little doubt that a former FDA commissioner on your board might be an asset when you’re trying to secure a nearly $2 billion contract with the U.S. government for a novel vaccine that has never been approved by the FDA for human use. Technocracy Rising: Th... Wood, Patrick M. Best Price: $30.00 Buy New $24.00 (as of 07:16 UTC - Details)
As discussed in “Why Most Health Commissioners End Up in Bed With Big Pharma,” Gottlieb is far from alone in having walked through that revolving door. After leaving the top leadership position at the FDA, nine of the last 10 commissioners have gone on to work for pharmaceutical companies.
While none of these moves of past FDA commissioners to pharmaceutical companies is illegal, the pattern creates the suspicion there might be an unstated agreement between the pharmaceutical industry and those who are charged with regulating the approval of their products.
Another egregious example was Julie Gerberding, who served as the director of the CDC from 2002 to 2009. Immediately after leaving the CDC, she became president of Merck’s vaccine division, for which she received tens of millions of dollars a year — far more than her CDC salary.
mRNA Vaccines May Produce Serious Side Effects
As detailed in the preliminary study10 results, posted on the preprint server medRxiv July 20, 2020, BNT162b1 is a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulated nucleoside-modified mRNA that encodes the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.
mRNA vaccines have never before been licensed for use in humans. Inside your cells, mRNA activate DNA instructions, and act as a template to build a specific protein.
mRNA vaccines have potential safety issues, including local and systemic inflammation and stimulation of auto-reactive antibodies and autoimmunity, as well as development of edema (swelling) and blood clots.
The theory behind mRNA vaccines is that when you inject the mRNA (encapsulated within lipid nanoparticles), the mRNA will stimulate your cells to manufacture their own viral proteins.11 In this case, those proteins would mimic the proteins found in SARS-CoV-2.
Conventional vaccines train your body to recognize and respond to the proteins of a particular virus by injecting a small amount of the actual viral protein into your body, thereby triggering an immune response and the development of antibodies.
No previous vaccines have had your own cells produce the viral proteins responsible for producing immunity. mRNA vaccines are designed to make your body produce its own viral protein, which your immune system would then mount a response to. If you suspect a whole lot could go wrong here, you’d probably be right. As reported by The Vaccine Reaction:12
“According to researchers at University of Pennsylvania and Duke University, mRNA vaccines have potential safety issues, including local and systemic inflammation and stimulation of auto-reactive antibodies and autoimmunity, as well as development of edema (swelling) and blood clots.”13
Systemic inflammation, auto-reactive antibodies and autoimmune problems are no small matters. In fact, these are in large part why previous attempts to create a coronavirus vaccine have failed.
As explained by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in my interview with him, coronavirus vaccines are notorious for creating paradoxical immune enhancement. Even though the vaccines create a robust antibody response, the subjects end up sicker than normal when they’re exposed to the wild virus. In one ferret study, all the vaccinated animals died.

Time will tell just how hazardous the COVID-19 vaccines turn out to be. Since they work on the genetic level, there could be long-term, perhaps even generational, issues that won’t be readily apparent anytime soon, as these vaccines could be integrated into your DNA.
Be Wary of the PR Propaganda Spin
A July 21, 2020, Wired article urges researchers and media to be upfront and transparent about the vaccines’ side effects right now, “before it ends up as fodder for the skeptics”:14
“Neither the mainstream media nor the medical press has given much attention to the two vaccines’ potential downsides — in particular, their risk of nasty adverse effects, even if they’re not life-threatening. This sort of puffery doesn’t only help to build a false impression; it may also dry the tinder for the future spread of vaccine fearmongering.”
Wired points out that some trials are not using an inert placebo but rather injected meningococcal vaccine, which might hide certain symptoms or harms. Another example: The University of Oxford added study arms in which subjects are given acetaminophen every six hours for the first 24 hours after inoculation.
Is the pain and fever reducer given to mask and downplay certain symptoms and side effects, such as pain, fever, headache or general malaise? It very well could be. Wired notes:15
“The press release for … results from the Oxford vaccine trials described an increased frequency of ‘minor side effects’ among participants. A look at the actual paper, though, reveals this to be a marketing spin …
Yes, mild reactions were far more common than worse ones. But moderate or severe harms — defined as being bad enough to interfere with daily life or needing medical care — were common too.
Around one-third of people vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine without acetaminophen experienced moderate or severe chills, fatigue, headache, malaise, and/or feverishness.
Close to 10 percent had a fever of at least 100.4 degrees, and just over one-fourth developed moderate or severe muscle aches. That’s a lot, in a young and healthy group of people — and the acetaminophen didn’t help much for most of those problems.”
Experts Worry Vaccine Uptake May Be Low
Deadly Medicines and O... Peter Gotzsche Best Price: $38.43 Buy New $33.29 (as of 07:20 UTC - Details) Indeed, medical experts have already expressed concerns that COVID-19 vaccine uptake might end up being low. As reported by Newsday June 21, 2020:16
“A recent national Washington Post/ABC poll, and a poll of Long Islanders and New York City residents by Mount Sinai South Nassau hospital in Oceanside, each found that only 45% or fewer of respondents said they would get a coronavirus vaccine if one is developed. About a quarter in each poll said they would not, and the rest said they weren’t sure or wouldn’t answer.”
That Newsday article also inadvertently provides clues as to why most states are now, months into the pandemic, which has long since been “flattened,” issuing mandatory mask mandates, even though the science clearly tell us masks cannot protect against or prevent the spread of viruses.
I believe the forced mask wearing is a way to manipulate us into taking the vaccine, once it becomes available, and that is exactly what Noel Brewer alludes to in the Newsday article:17
“A return to pre-COVID-19 life could be possible if significantly more than half of Americans — the percentage is unknown — get a vaccine, the number of new infections is low and those who already contracted the virus are immune from getting sick again …
That enticement of normal life could lead some who now are leery about a coronavirus vaccine to get one once it is available, said Noel Brewer, a professor of health behavior at the University of North Carolina who sits on World Health Organization committees on vaccine behavior and safety.
‘If a vaccine allows you to no longer wear a mask at work, or to visit your grandmother in a nursing home, or to shake hands with business colleagues, that could be very motivating,’ he said.”

With more than 400 military bases equipped with nuclear weapons surrounding China, the United States military continues its encirclement of China and China enters a “state of siege.”
The U.S. conducts military exercises with the Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group in the contested South China Sea. These U.S “maritime Air defense operation[s]” close to the Chinese mainland are a part of significantly increased U.S. military exercises in the area.
The U.S. Defense Secretary Esper announces that the U.S. is withdrawing troops from Germany but moving them closer to the Russian border to serve as a more effective deterrent against Russia.
Russia says it will regard any ballistic missile aimed at its territory as a nuclear attack and will respond in kind with nuclear weapons.
Although the U.S. is formally not at war with any African country, a new report reveals that the United States has special forces operating in 22 African countries with 29 bases and 6,000 troops, with a huge drone hub in Niger that cost 100 + million to build and is expected to have operating costs of more than $280 billion by 2024.
The U.S. continues its assault on Syria, aside from direct military operations, by building up Kurdish proxies in northeastern Syria to protect the oil fields that they are stealing from the Syrian government, a plan hatched long ago. The U.S. says their strategy is to deny ISIS a valuable revenue stream. The same ISIS they used to attack the Syrian government in a war of aggression.
A new document exposes the U.S. plan to overthrow the socialist government of Nicaragua through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), a traditional U.S. regime change and CIA front organization.

Meanwhile, in Belarus, a place most Americans can’t find on a map, there is another color “revolution” underway.
Continuing its war against Iran and Venezuela by other means, the Trump administration seizes Iranian tankers carrying fuel to Venezuela. “Something will happen with Venezuela. That’s all I can tell you. Something will be happening with Venezuela,” said Trump in a July interview with Noticias Telemundo.
And of course the Palestinians are left to suffer and die as Israel is supported in its despotic policies in the Middle East.
The list goes on and on as the U.S. under Trump continues to wage war by multiple means around the world. But his followers see him as peaceful president because these wars are waged through sanctions, special operations, drones, third parties, etc.
But back in the center ring, the two presidential clown candidates keep the audience entertained, as they shoot water at each other. Trump, who now presides over all the events just listed, and Biden, who enthusiastically supported the American wars against Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, etc.
But then the followers of Obama/Biden also see their champions as peaceful leaders. This is even more absurd.
Don’t you like farce?
Superpower Showdown: H... Wei, Lingling Best Price: $17.93 Buy New $16.84 (as of 11:50 UTC - Details) Besides being a rabid advocate for the invasion of Iraq in 2003 as a senator, Biden, as Vice-President under Obama for eight years, seconded and promoted all of Obama’s wars that were wrapped in “humanitarian” propaganda to evade international law and keep his liberal supporters quiet. From Bush II, an outright cowboy war-wager who used America’s large military forces to invade Afghanistan and Iraq under false pretensions – i.e. lies, Obama and his sidekick Biden learned to arm and finance thousands of Islamic jihadists, run by the CIA and U.S. special forces, to do the job in more circumspect ways. They expanded and grew The United States Africa Command (U.S. AFRICOM) throughout Africa. They agreed to a $1 trillion upgrade of U.S nuclear weapons (that continues under Trump). They disarmed their followers, who, in any case, wished to look the other way. Out of sight and out of mind, Obama/Biden continued the “war on terror” with drones, private militias, color revolutions, etc. They waged war on six-seven – who knows how many – countries.
An exception to the more secretive wars was the Obama administration’s openly savage assault on Libya in 2011 under the lies of an imperial moral legitimacy. In order to save you, we will destroy you, which is what they did to Libya, a country still in ruins and chaos. Their equally blood-thirsty Secretary of State Hillary Clinton let the cat out of the bag when she laughed and gleefully applauded the brutal murder of Libya’s leader Moammar Gaddafi with the words: “We came, we saw, he died.” Yippee!
After Libya was destroyed and so many killed in an illegal and immoral war financed with $2 billion dollars from the America treasury, Joseph Biden bragged that the U.S. didn’t lose a single life and such a war was a “prescription for how to deal with the world as we go forward.”
Biden was Obama’s front man on Iraq, the war he voted for in 2003, and wrote an op ed article in 2006 calling for the breakup of the country into three parts, Shia, Sunni, and Kurdish.
When Obama launched 48 cruise missiles and more than ten thousand tons of bombs on Syria in 2016, killing over a hundred civilians, a third of them children, V.P. Biden stood proud and strong in support of the action.
When the U.S. launched the bloody coup in Ukraine in 2014, Biden was of course in agreement. Trade Wars Are Class W... Pettis, Michael Best Price: $19.09 Buy New $19.36 (as of 04:24 UTC - Details)
But we are told that Trump and Biden are arch-enemies. One of them wants war and the other wants peace.
How many Americans will vote for these clowns this year? They are really front men for The Umbrella People, the money people who use the CIA and other undercover forces to carry out their organized crime activities.
As C.S Lewis said in his preface to The Screwtape Letters:
The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid ‘dens of crime’ that Dickens loved to paint . . .. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice.
In the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump received 129 million votes out of 157 million registered American voters eager to believe that this system is not built on imperial war making by both parties.
Perhaps that’s a generous assessment. Maybe many of those voters believe in the U.S.A.’s “manifest destiny” to rule the world and wage war in God’s name. I hope not. But if so, you can expect a big turnout on November 3, 2020.
In any case, it’s quite a circus, but these clowns aren’t funny. They are dangerous.
“But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns
Don’t bother they’re here”
Don’t you like farce?

All Spying, All the Time

During this summer of madness in Portland , Oregon , and sadness over COVID-19 , two below-the-radar events occurred implicating the insatiable appetite of the United States government to spy on everyone in America .
Regular readers of this column know that the feds have been wearing away at our privacy rights using a multitude of means .
Yet , these two below-the-fold events this summer have caught the feds flatfooted .
Here is the backstory .
After the calamity of Watergate , Congress investigated the nature and extent of FBI and CIA spying on Americans as ordered by President @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the late Sen. Frank Church , D-Idaho , in 1975 made such startling revelations of warrantless and unlawful spying on Americans pursuant to presidential whims — going back to FDR — that it offered legislation to provide judicial oversight .
The legislation is the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 .

The Fourth Amendment requires proof of the likelihood of evidence of crimes in the place to be searched as a precondition for the issuance of search warrants , and it requires specification of the place to be searched or the person or thing to be seized .
When James Madison wrote the Fourth Amendment , his goal was to compel the government to focus its investigative resources on evidence of crimes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the British had done to the colonists , and to establish that the natural right to be left alone by the government — privacy — is the default position .
FISA reverses all that .
It presumes that the feds can obtain all the business and financial records they want about any person for any reason because they can define “ business records ” and “ financial records ” to include anything they want , such as mail from the Post Office or medical and legal records .
FISA also ignores the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and substitutes in an amorphous and absurd standard of probable cause of speaking to any person who has spoken to any foreign person .
FISA also ignores the specificity requirement of identifying the place to be searched and the person or thing to be seized .
The FISA Court meets in secret in Washington , D.C. , and even the judges on the court do not have access to its records .
So , the court was hugely embarrassed a few years ago when one of its orders was leaked to the press @ @ @ @ @ @ @ directing it to furnish a year ’ s worth of telephone records to the National Security Agency — America ’ s 60,000-person strong domestic spy agency — of all 113 million Verizon customers !
This was done without the NSA showing probable cause of crime and without identifying a single customer .
The unconstitutional order was granted pursuant to section 215 of FISA .
That section purports to permit bulk acquisition of electronic data — print and voice — without identifying whose data is being sought and without requiring any showing of probable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ section 215 expired , and Congress made fruitless attempts to revive it .
Last week , Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell , R-Ky. , when he adjourned the Senate for the summer , addressed the issues it will take up in the fall .
FISA section 215 was not among them .
McConnell ’ s silence is baffling as he and the intelligence community have been claiming loud and long , for nearly 20 years , that without section 215 , the United States is ripe for subversion and invasion .
Was the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ along about its need for section 215 , or will the NSA continue to spy without even a tissue of statutory authorization ?
My friends formerly in the NSA tell me it doesn ’ t care about the law or the Constitution .
Its goal is to spy on all persons all the time .
A few days before the mysterious McConnell silence came a rare public warning from the NSA .
These master spies were concerned that military and Department of Homeland Security personnel in the streets of Portland were unwittingly exposing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the feds , but by demonstrators in the streets using the same sophisticated spying tools the government uses .
Thus , the NSA warned that the demonstrators were using stingrays — fake cell towers that send signals that lock onto mobile phones permitting the user of the tower to follow the movements of the phones — as many local police departments unlawfully do .
Stated differently , the federal government was not warning Americans about foreign spies or the depth of its own spying .
It was warning government employees about the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The failure to abide this warning is surely one of the reasons the feds largely departed Portland ’ s streets as the demonstrators knew when and where the troops would arrive .
Government spying is a way of life for tens of thousands of government personnel , even outside the NSA .
Yet , all of them have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution , which guarantees the right to privacy — privacy as a natural right , as the default position , with its invasion strictly limited to collect evidence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by a judge .

FISA is profoundly unconstitutional because it authorizes the judges on the FISA Court to issue search warrants using a lesser standard of proof than what the Constitution requires. The Fourth Amendment requires proof of the likelihood of evidence of crimes in the place to be searched as a precondition for the issuance of search warrants, and it requires specification of the place to be searched or the person or thing to be seized.
When James Madison wrote the Fourth Amendment, his goal was to compel the government to focus its investigative resources on evidence of crimes, not spying on political adversaries, as the British had done to the colonists, and to establish that the natural right to be left alone by the government — privacy — is the default position.
FISA reverses all that. It presumes that the feds can obtain all the business and financial records they want about any person for any reason because they can define “business records” and “financial records” to include anything they want, such as mail from the Post Office or medical and legal records.

Once I had dismissed the paltry evidence that HIV caused AIDS, I began investigating every so-called high-risk group. These groups had been named by the CDC as most likely to contract AIDS: gay men; Africans; Haitians; IV drug users; hemophiliacs.

This was a major breakthrough.
First, it meant that the immune-system suppression which was called AIDS could result from many different causes.
Second—and this was the central realization—what was being called AIDS WAS NOT ONE THING. Repeat: AIDS WAS NOT ONE THING. IT WAS NOT ONE SYNDROME.
The label “AIDS” was a piece of hypnotic propaganda. It was being applied to diverse groups of people, in order to make it seem they were all afflicted by the same cause.
