thewashingtonstandard--2020-10-15--A Lie Pitched From The Pits Of Hell Destroyed By The Same WHO & CDC That Fostered The Lie

A Lie Pitched From The Pits Of Hell Destroyed By The Same WHO & CDC That Fostered The Lie The World Health Organization ( WHO ) and Centers For Disease Control ( CDC ) —who together orchestrated the biggest global fraud in world history and who put the entire planet on military and police lockdown resulting in millions of lost jobs , millions of people thrust into poverty , millions of people becoming prisoners in nursing homes and even their own homes , untold broken families , ruined careers and suicides—recently published two reports that shatter the accepted corona narrative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost no one in the mainstream media will cover these reports , so you probably have heard nothing about them .
The World Health Organization has finally confirmed what we ( and many experts and studies ) have been saying for months – the coronavirus is no more deadly or dangerous than seasonal flu .
The WHO ’ s top brass made this announcement during a special session of the WHO ’ s 34-member executive board on Monday October 5th , it ’ s just nobody seemed to really understand it .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to completely understand it themselves .
At the session , Dr Michael Ryan , the WHO ’ s Head of Emergencies revealed that they believe roughly 10 % of the world has been infected with Sars-Cov-2 .
This is their “ best estimate ” , and a huge increase over the number of officially recognised cases ( around 35 million ) .
Dr. Margaret Harris , a WHO spokeswoman , later confirmed the figure , stating it was based on the average results of all the broad seroprevalence studies done around the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attempting to spin this as a bad thing – Dr Ryan even said it means “ the vast majority of the world remains at risk ” – it ’ s actually good news .
And confirms , once more , that the virus is nothing like as deadly as everyone predicted .
The global population is roughly 7.8 billion people , if 10 % have been infected that is 780 million cases .
The global death toll currently attributed to Sars-Cov-2 infections is 1,061,539 .
That ’ s an infection fatality rate of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with seasonal flu and the predictions of many experts from all around the world .
0.14 % is over 24 times LOWER than the WHO ’ s “ provisional figure ” of 3.4 % back in March .
This figure was used in the models which were used to justify lockdowns and other draconian policies .
In fact , given the over-reporting of alleged Covid deaths , the IFR is likely even lower than 0.14 % , and could show Covid to be much less dangerous than flu .
Think about it : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be put in a giant open air prison , prohibiting them from going to work , from going to church , from going anywhere without a stupid face diaper , from going to movies , from going to concerts , from going to sporting events , from going to bars or restaurants , from going to hair salons or barber shops , forcing them to close their businesses , forcing them to close their stores , forcing them to close their shops , forcing them to close their churches—basically , forcing them to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ constitutionally protected liberties .
FOR WHAT ?
For a virus that is less harmful than the seasonal flu .
And WHO admits it .
The CDC document is titled , CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus ( 2019-nCoV ) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel .
It is dated July 13 , 2020 .
Buried deep in the document , on page 39 , in a section titled , “ Performance Characteristics , ” we have this : “ Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available , assays [ diagnostic tests ] designed for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with characterized stocks of in vitro transcribed full length RNA… ” The key phrase there is : “ Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available… ” Every object that exists can be quantified , which is to say , measured .
The use of the term “ quantified ” in that phrase means : the CDC has no measurable amount of the virus , because it is unavailable .
THE CDC HAS NO VIRUS .
A further tip-off is the use of the word “ isolates.
” This means @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way to put it : NO ONE HAS AN ISOLATED SPECIMEN OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS .
NO ONE HAS ISOLATED THE COVID-19 VIRUS .
THEREFORE , NO ONE HAS PROVED THAT IT EXISTS .
As if this were not enough of a revelation to shock the world , the CDC goes on to say they are presenting a diagnostic PCR test to detect the virus-that-hasn ’ t-been-isolated …and the test is looking for RNA which is PRESUMED to come from the virus that hasn ’ t been proved to exist .
So , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not prove the coronavirus even exists .
I say again , this entire coronavirus narrative is the biggest global fraud in world history .
In fact , this fraud is so large it can not be explained in natural terms .
The sheer magnitude of such global devastation , disruption and decimation of Liberty and natural living can only be explained in terms of the supernatural .
Yes , I ’ m saying it straight out : The corona fraud is a work of evil spirits .
It is a lie pitched from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the medical professionals , local and county health boards , State governors , mayors , city councils , county commissions , school boards , government bureaucrats , media professionals , Big Tech executives and PASTORS who are blindly going along with the corona narrative are being manipulated by evil spirits .
There can be no other explanation .
And the real lesson of the corona fraud is the almost universal lack of spiritual discernment and courage within the Church .
If I am right that the corona fraud is a creation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ONLY answer to it is the heavenly light of spiritual truth .
That means THE CHURCH must respond .
Pastors are silent .
TV preachers are silent .
Evangelists are silent .
Christian educators are silent .
Christian authors are silent .
Christian radio broadcasters are silent .
Christian doctors are silent .
Christian attorneys are silent .
Christian businessmen are silent .
Christians in the pews are silent .
Save for a precious few , the entire Church is utterly , shamefully SILENT .
The only thing Christians can focus on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They are absolutely insensible to the fact that all of this happened ON TRUMP ’ S WATCH—and with his assistance .
Donald Trump is as much a stooge of evil spirits as anyone else in Washington , D.C .
In fact , I just discovered that here in Montana , the governor ’ s Emergency and Disaster orders expired months ago .
The only Emergency Order ( EO ) that is in effect , the EO that maintains the phony corona narrative , the EO that keeps businesses closed , keeps churches closed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ halls and sporting events closed and that forces people into agonizing isolation and forces them to wear those stupid face diapers is Donald Trump ’ s Emergency Order .
Look hard at your State laws , folks , because I suspect that many states are likewise suffering primarily under Trump ’ s Emergency Order—the same Emergency Order that is funneling trillions of taxpayer dollars into the perpetuation of the phony corona narrative and the giant corporations that are profiting from it .
If Donald Trump truly wanted to end the lockdowns , shutdowns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ truly wanted Americans to go back to work , if he truly wanted the American people to have their lives and their liberties restored , he would rescind his Emergency Order NOW .
So , why hasn ’ t he done it ?
Christians foolishly assume that this nightmare will go away after Trump is reelected .
It won ’ t because this is NOT a political or natural attack ; this is a supernatural or spiritual attack that can only be defeated by a supernatural and spiritual counterattack—a counterattack that hasn ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with no meaningful response from America ’ s spiritual leaders , the powers of darkness know that the Church is ignorant , impotent and indolent .
As a result , nothing stands in their way .
The power elite have already started the next phase of our open-air imprisonment .
If you don ’ t believe that , read this : Google recently teamed up with the Pentagon as part of the new , AI-driven “ Predictive Health ” program .
Though only focused on “ predictive cancer diagnoses ” for now , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to expand the AI model for automating and predicting Covid-19 diagnoses .
Here is the rest of the chilling report .
They are planning the creation of a real-life Minority Report society , except MUCH WORSE .
Trump ’ s decision to use the U.S. military to deliver corona vaccines and/or other Big Pharma solutions to the faux corona pandemic is no small matter .
It has nothing to do with speeding a wonder drug to America ’ s heartland for our medical healing .
It has everything to do with merging America @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the U.S. military for our near-future enslavement .
Of course Joe Biden is no better .
Again , this is not a political problem ; it is a spiritual problem .
And as long as Christians keep shirking their responsibility to apply spiritual solutions to spiritual problems and keep telling themselves that their national salvation depends on perfidious , unprincipled politicians , the more they aid and abet their own enslavement .
As already stated , the phony corona narrative is a lie pitched from the pits of Hell .
It ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and say so .
Christ told us that the gates of Hell would not prevail against the Church .
So , why is the Church not storming the gates ?
Scripture tells us that when we resist the evil one , he will flee from us .
So , when will the Church start resisting ?
America ’ s future is not in the hands of the politicians ; it is in the hands of the men in the pulpits .
And so far , all most of them have done is wash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ encourage readers to watch my new DVD entitled The Rise Of The Beast : Coronavirus And Antichrist .
This DVD contains FIVE of my recent messages : The Scofield Rapture : A False Escape From The Beast The False Security Of The Beast The Command To Resist The Beast The Masks Of The Beast The Marks Of The Beast The propaganda and government overreach of the coronavirus is illustrative of the hideous damage being caused by C. I. Scofield ’ s false prophecy doctrines .
These messages show how the evangelical church has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest group and is unwittingly assisting the work of antichrist through these false prophecy teachings .
These five messages are a monumental wake-up call for the Church to cast off the complacency associated with Scofield Zionism and return to the clarion call of God to be the salt and light of our country—before our liberties are totally destroyed and it becomes too late .
Order The Rise Of The Beast : Coronavirus And Antichrist here .
P.P.S .
I also again remind readers that we have introduced a blockbuster book that I consider @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ethnic Cleansing Of Palestine , by Ilan Pappe .
Written by one of Israel ’ s most renowned historians , this is the true story of how Israel became a state off the blood , rape and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people .
The State of Israel loves to play the role of victim on the world stage , but the truth is , since WWII , Israel is one of the most murderous aggressor/terror states in the world .
Had any other nation on earth committed the atrocities you will find @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world—especially the United States—would hold it up to global condemnation .
But you have likely read or heard absolutely nothing about it .
The truth of Israel ’ s murderous conquest of Palestine is even hidden from the people of Israel themselves .
Evangelical Christians who are enamored with the modern State of Israel , believing it to be a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy , need to take a close , hard look at the brutal history of the Zionist state .
Reading this book is the best place to begin .
Order @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pappe here .

A Lie Pitched From The Pits Of Hell Destroyed By The Same WHO & CDC That Fostered The Lie
The World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers For Disease Control (CDC)—who together orchestrated the biggest global fraud in world history and who put the entire planet on military and police lockdown resulting in millions of lost jobs, millions of people thrust into poverty, millions of people becoming prisoners in nursing homes and even their own homes, untold broken families, ruined careers and suicides—recently published two reports that shatter the accepted corona narrative fostered by both organizations. Typically, almost no one in the mainstream media will cover these reports, so you probably have heard nothing about them.
First Report:
The World Health Organization has finally confirmed what we (and many experts and studies) have been saying for months – the coronavirus is no more deadly or dangerous than seasonal flu.
The WHO’s top brass made this announcement during a special session of the WHO’s 34-member executive board on Monday October 5th, it’s just nobody seemed to really understand it.
In fact, they didn’t seem to completely understand it themselves.
At the session, Dr Michael Ryan, the WHO’s Head of Emergencies revealed that they believe roughly 10% of the world has been infected with Sars-Cov-2. This is their “best estimate”, and a huge increase over the number of officially recognised cases (around 35 million).
Dr. Margaret Harris, a WHO spokeswoman, later confirmed the figure, stating it was based on the average results of all the broad seroprevalence studies done around the world.
As much as the WHO were attempting to spin this as a bad thing – Dr Ryan even said it means “the vast majority of the world remains at risk” – it’s actually good news. And confirms, once more, that the virus is nothing like as deadly as everyone predicted.
The global population is roughly 7.8 billion people, if 10% have been infected that is 780 million cases. The global death toll currently attributed to Sars-Cov-2 infections is 1,061,539.
That’s an infection fatality rate of roughly 0.14%. Right in line with seasonal flu and the predictions of many experts from all around the world.
0.14% is over 24 times LOWER than the WHO’s “provisional figure” of 3.4% back in March. This figure was used in the models which were used to justify lockdowns and other draconian policies.
In fact, given the over-reporting of alleged Covid deaths, the IFR is likely even lower than 0.14%, and could show Covid to be much less dangerous than flu.
Think about it: The American people have allowed themselves to be put in a giant open air prison, prohibiting them from going to work, from going to church, from going anywhere without a stupid face diaper, from going to movies, from going to concerts, from going to sporting events, from going to bars or restaurants, from going to hair salons or barber shops, forcing them to close their businesses, forcing them to close their stores, forcing them to close their shops, forcing them to close their churches—basically, forcing them to abandon virtually all of their God-given, constitutionally protected liberties.
FOR WHAT? For a virus that is less harmful than the seasonal flu. And WHO admits it.
Second Report:
The CDC document is titled, CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel. It is dated July 13, 2020.
Buried deep in the document, on page 39, in a section titled, “Performance Characteristics,” we have this: “Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available, assays [diagnostic tests] designed for detection of the 2019-nCoV RNA were tested with characterized stocks of in vitro transcribed full length RNA…”
The key phrase there is: “Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available…”
Every object that exists can be quantified, which is to say, measured. The use of the term “quantified” in that phrase means: the CDC has no measurable amount of the virus, because it is unavailable. THE CDC HAS NO VIRUS.
A further tip-off is the use of the word “isolates.” This means NO ISOLATED VIRUS IS AVAILABLE.
Another way to put it: NO ONE HAS AN ISOLATED SPECIMEN OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS.
NO ONE HAS ISOLATED THE COVID-19 VIRUS.
THEREFORE, NO ONE HAS PROVED THAT IT EXISTS.
As if this were not enough of a revelation to shock the world, the CDC goes on to say they are presenting a diagnostic PCR test to detect the virus-that-hasn’t-been-isolated …and the test is looking for RNA which is PRESUMED to come from the virus that hasn’t been proved to exist.
So, now the CDC is saying they cannot prove the coronavirus even exists.
I say again, this entire coronavirus narrative is the biggest global fraud in world history. In fact, this fraud is so large it cannot be explained in natural terms. The sheer magnitude of such global devastation, disruption and decimation of Liberty and natural living can only be explained in terms of the supernatural.
Yes, I’m saying it straight out: The corona fraud is a work of evil spirits. It is a lie pitched from the pits of Hell.

There can be no other explanation.
And the real lesson of the corona fraud is the almost universal lack of spiritual discernment and courage within the Church. If I am right that the corona fraud is a creation of the dark regions of the netherworld, the ONLY answer to it is the heavenly light of spiritual truth. That means THE CHURCH must respond.
Except it’s not!
Pastors are silent. TV preachers are silent. Evangelists are silent. Christian educators are silent. Christian authors are silent. Christian radio broadcasters are silent. Christian doctors are silent. Christian attorneys are silent. Christian businessmen are silent. Christians in the pews are silent. Save for a precious few, the entire Church is utterly, shamefully SILENT.
The only thing Christians can focus on is Donald Trump’s reelection. They are absolutely insensible to the fact that all of this happened ON TRUMP’S WATCH—and with his assistance. Donald Trump is as much a stooge of evil spirits as anyone else in Washington, D.C.
In fact, I just discovered that here in Montana, the governor’s Emergency and Disaster orders expired months ago. The only Emergency Order (EO) that is in effect, the EO that maintains the phony corona narrative, the EO that keeps businesses closed, keeps churches closed, keeps theaters closed, keeps concert halls and sporting events closed and that forces people into agonizing isolation and forces them to wear those stupid face diapers is Donald Trump’s Emergency Order.
Look hard at your State laws, folks, because I suspect that many states are likewise suffering primarily under Trump’s Emergency Order—the same Emergency Order that is funneling trillions of taxpayer dollars into the perpetuation of the phony corona narrative and the giant corporations that are profiting from it.
If Donald Trump truly wanted to end the lockdowns, shutdowns, closures, etc., if he truly wanted Americans to go back to work, if he truly wanted the American people to have their lives and their liberties restored, he would rescind his Emergency Order NOW.
So, why hasn’t he done it?
Christians foolishly assume that this nightmare will go away after Trump is reelected. It won’t because this is NOT a political or natural attack; this is a supernatural or spiritual attack that can only be defeated by a supernatural and spiritual counterattack—a counterattack that hasn’t come. After this much time with no meaningful response from America’s spiritual leaders, the powers of darkness know that the Church is ignorant, impotent and indolent. As a result, nothing stands in their way.
The power elite have already started the next phase of our open-air imprisonment. If you don’t believe that, read this:

It has nothing to do with speeding a wonder drug to America’s heartland for our medical healing. It has everything to do with merging America’s healthcare and pharmaceutical industries with the U.S. military for our near-future enslavement.
Of course Joe Biden is no better.
Again, this is not a political problem; it is a spiritual problem. And as long as Christians keep shirking their responsibility to apply spiritual solutions to spiritual problems and keep telling themselves that their national salvation depends on perfidious, unprincipled politicians, the more they aid and abet their own enslavement.

This DVD contains FIVE of my recent messages:

The propaganda and government overreach of the coronavirus is illustrative of the hideous damage being caused by C. I. Scofield’s false prophecy doctrines.

Former CBS Healthwatch Reporter: “If The Virus Isn’t There… Why Do They Believe It Is?
Former CBS Healthwatch reporter and author of The Matrix Revealed Jon Rappoport has been providing ample evidence that people are being deceived about COVID-19. He has reported that the Center for Disease Control and several authors in a European study have admitted they don’t have the “virus.” Yet, the CDC and the World Health Organization have been some of the biggest purveyors of the lies surrounding coronavirus and the guidelines being imposed upon the world.

Most of these scientists are true believers. They accept, like dogma, the standard and non-valid procedures for “isolating” and “sequencing” the virus.
A smaller number of scientists understand the hoax, but they remain criminally silent—or they are actively perpetuating the hoax.

Not so with virologists and geneticists. They utilize a closed system of analysis, which automatically confirms what they already believe. This is the furthest thing from science.

Of course, when it comes to viruses, the follow-up is censorship or ridicule of those who doubt theological “biology.”

“Bronchoalveolar-lavage fluid samples were collected in sterile cups to which virus transport medium was added. Samples were then centrifuged to remove cellular debris. The supernatant was inoculated on human airway epithelial cells,13 which had been obtained from airway specimens resected from patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer and were confirmed to be special-pathogen-free by NGS.14”
“Human airway epithelial cells were expanded on plastic substrate to generate passage-1 cells and were subsequently plated at a density of 2.5×105 cells per well on permeable Transwell-COL (12-mm diameter) supports. Human airway epithelial cell cultures were generated in an air–liquid interface for 4 to 6 weeks to form well-differentiated, polarized cultures resembling in vivo pseudostratified [!] mucociliary epithelium.13”
“Prior to infection, apical surfaces of the human airway epithelial cells were washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline; 150 μl of supernatant from bronchoalveolar-lavage fluid samples was inoculated onto the apical surface of the cell cultures. After a 2-hour incubation at 37°C, unbound virus was removed by washing with 500 μl of phosphate-buffered saline for 10 minutes; human airway epithelial cells were maintained in an air–liquid interface incubated at 37°C with 5% carbon dioxide. Every 48 hours, 150 μl of phosphate-buffered saline was applied to the apical surfaces of the human airway epithelial cells, and after 10 minutes of incubation at 37°C the samples were harvested. Pseudostratified [!] mucociliary epithelium cells were maintained in this environment; apical samples were passaged in a 1:3 diluted vial stock to new cells. The cells were monitored daily with light microscopy, for cytopathic effects, and with RT-PCR, for the presence of viral nucleic acid in the supernatant. After three passages, apical samples and human airway epithelial cells were prepared for transmission electron microscopy…”
I can guarantee one thing: If a medical journal opened up its pages to a frank and protracted discussion, from all comers, about this “process of isolation,” you would see fireworks exploding in all directions. Within a few months, there would be raging global debate about the authenticity of “isolation.”
The density of the description in the China study is exactly why, for months, I’ve been demanding a straightforward real-world experimental test of the “new virus.” [5]
You line up 1000 patients who have been diagnosed with the new epidemic illness. You remove tissue samples from all of them. You put these samples through the above “isolation process.” You decide which patients have a huge amount of virus in their bodies.
Those patients should certainly be ill.
Then LET’S SEE. Are they ill or are they running marathons?
Real world.
Not lab world.
This study will never be done for one obvious reason. Unlike the astoundingly complex manipulations that go on in the lab, this real-world experiment has a yes or no answer. Are the patients ill or healthy?
But that’s asking too much from these researchers. They would rather infer and assume whatever suits their fancy.
They never want the rubber to meet the road.

The Trump administration continues to support the LGBTQ community , a community that ’ s behavior is considered an abomination , according to the Creator , as he continually adds to his predecessor ’ s advancements in making America the enemy of God and thus bringing curses down upon us .
In this episode , we ’ ll take a look at just what is going on .
Scripture , Articles and videos mentioned in this episode .
Genesis 19:1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even ; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom : and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them ; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground ; 2And he said , Behold now , my lords , turn in , I pray you , into your servant ’ s house , and tarry all night , and wash your feet , and ye shall rise up early , and go on your ways .
And they said , Nay ; but we will abide in the street all night .
3And he pressed upon them greatly ; and they turned in unto him , and entered into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a feast , and did bake unleavened bread , and they did eat .
4But before they lay down , the men of the city , even the men of Sodom , compassed the house round , both old and young , all the people from every quarter : 5And they called unto Lot , and said unto him , Where are the men which came in to thee this night ?
bring them out unto us , that we may know them .
6And Lot went out at the door unto them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 7And said , I pray you , brethren , do not so wickedly .
8Behold now , I have two daughters which have not known man ; let me , I pray you , bring them out unto you , and do ye to them as is good in your eyes : only unto these men do nothing ; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof .
9And they said , Stand back .
And they said again , This one fellow came in to sojourn , and he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will we deal worse with thee , than with them .
And they pressed sore upon the man , even Lot , and came near to break the door .
10But the men put forth their hand , and pulled Lot into the house to them , and shut to the door .
11And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness , both small and great : so that they wearied themselves to find the door .
2 Peter:1 But there were false prophets also among @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be false teachers among you , who privily shall bring in damnable heresies , even denying the Lord that bought them , and bring upon themselves swift destruction .

Hawaii:  Cop Sexually Assaults Minor During Traffic Stop – Gets Only 14 Days In Jail – Won’t Register As Sex Offender

Honolulu , HI — Police sexual assaults in the United States are so common that TFTP can not possibly cover them all .
The underlying theme of all of them , however , is the lack of punishment these cops receive for preying on others , including children .
As the following infuriating case out of Honolulu illustrates , cops can and will sexually assault children , while on duty , and receive little more than a slap on the wrist .
Honolulu police officer Kramer Aoki ’ s case has been in the system for over 6 years as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bring him to justice .
However , although the case came to an end on Tuesday , the family found out this week that “ justice ” is entirely arbitrary and favors those who serve the establishment .
The cop who sexually assaulted their daughter was sentenced to just two weeks in jail .
As an added bonus , he will not have to register as a sex offender .
What ’ s more , Aoki ’ s special privilege awarded him with the benefit of wiping all the charges off his record @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , he could be a cop again .
As the Star Advertiser reports , Circuit Judge Kevin Souza sentenced the 41-year-old on Tuesday in the fourth-degree sexual assault case , and granted him a deferral of a no-contest plea .
If Aoki complies with the terms of the deferral , the conviction will be wiped off his record and he will stay off the sex offender registry .
According to prosecutors , on Sept. 6 , 2014 , Aoki pulled over a 17-year-old girl for speeding .
During the stop , the girl @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ticket .
Thinking this granted him permission to sexually assault her , while the girl was still in his custody , Aoki began groping her breasts .
He then gave her back her license and registration and sent her on her way .
After she was sexually assaulted , the girl told her parents who then successfully fought to have Aoki charged .
But that was the end of their success .
Over the last six years , Akoi has been given preferential treatment as the court kept dismissing his case and lowering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ assaulting a child — while that child is in an officer ’ s custody — carries a sentence of five years .
Instead of denying that Aoki sexually assaulted the child , his defense argued that she was not in his custody in an effort to have the charge lowered .
And it worked .
His lawyer , Thomas Otake , told Circuit Judge Glenn Kim in 2014 , “ A traffic stop is not custody.
” Deputy City Prosecutor Lynn Costales had argued that while she was not under arrest , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Aoki had her driver ’ s license and vehicle registration when he touched her — which is the truth .
Nevertheless , Kim bought the defense and dismissed the case , despite this cop groping a child .
The case was then refiled in 2015 , as a fourth-degree sexual assault , a misdemeanor that carries only a 1-year maximum sentence .
For his second trial , the court omitted the fact that Aoki was a cop and the girl he sexually assaulted was in his custody at the time .
During his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be considered at all by the court — thus , the disgustingly low sentence .
Naturally , the family , who was pushing for the maximum sentence , was furious after the sentencing and pointed out how Aoki had received preferential treatment since the beginning , dragging out the case for years in an attempt to get where they got today .
“ He also got a lot of time where six years has gone by , but I believe that was a tactic to see if our family would falter and give @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behind her , ” the victim ’ s mother said in court .

thewashingtonstandard--2020-10-15--Are Big Social Media Companies Trying To Determine Who Wins The Presidential Election?

In 2016 , the big social media companies were criticized for allowing others to influence the outcome of the election , but in 2020 the big social media companies are directly interfering in the election more than anyone else is by a very wide margin .
They insist that they have a duty to prevent the flow of “ harmful information ” , but whenever they act it always seems to help Democrats and hurt Republicans .
It has become obvious that Facebook , Twitter and other large social media companies are trying to help Democrats win , and that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the presidential election .
No matter what you think of Joe Biden and no matter what you think of Donald Trump , all Americans should want the election to be fair .
Unfortunately , the big social media companies have discovered that they have the ability to sway public opinion on a massive scale , and this is the first election in which they are really flexing those muscles .
But if we allow those that control the levers of power on the Internet to determine the outcomes of our elections from now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the American experiment will be over .
On Thursday , the New York Post published a bombshell article about Hunter Biden that included some really shocking new revelations .
As soon as I read the article I recognized that it was very newsworthy and I immediately linked to it on The Most Important News , and other conservative websites did the same thing .
Meanwhile , Facebook and Twitter were working aggressively to limit the spread of the article… Facebook and Twitter took steps on Wednesday to limit the spread of a controversial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Biden , sparking outrage among conservatives and stoking debate over how social media platforms should tackle misinformation ahead of the US election .
In an unprecedented step against a major news publication , Twitter blocked users from posting links to the Post story or photos from the unconfirmed report .
Users attempting to share the story were shown a notice saying : “ We can ’ t complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful.
” If Facebook and Twitter had taken similar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the years , we could forgive them for this sort of censorship .
But no matter where the leaks come from , and no matter how sketchy the sources are , the big social media companies always allow questionable stories about Trump to spread like wildfire .
They only step in when a story is going to be “ harmful ” to Biden , and that is fundamentally unfair .
In addition to preventing the spread of the story , Twitter actually decided to lock the New York Post out of their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Secretary Kayleigh McEnany tweeted about this story , they locked her account too .
20 years ago , it would have been unthinkable for someone to try to censor White House officials , but now it is happening on a regular basis .
Prominent conservatives like James Woods and Jack Posobiec were also locked out of their accounts by Twitter , and if you try to tweet any of the primary material mentioned in the New York Post story you might get locked out of your account too .
But anything goes when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say anything you like and spread any sort of wild rumors that you wish , and they will never do anything to you .
Republicans in the Senate such as Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz were absolutely furious when they realized what Facebook and Twitter were doing , and they demanded answers .
Unfortunately , Facebook and Twitter are not backing down .
And why should they ?
They have been getting away with censoring political speech for years .
Earlier this month , conservative host Mark Levin was absolutely outraged when Facebook @ @ @ @ @ @ @ middle of election season… Why don ’ t we ever hear about liberal voices getting censored like this ?
Even more alarming is the fact that some Republican candidates for Congress are not being allowed to buy ads for their campaigns at all .
Aja Smith is an African-American conservative running in California ’ s 41st Congressional District , and Facebook has completely banned her from running political advertisements… And other Republican candidates in California also report that they have been shadowbanned by the big social media companies… If we allow Facebook and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will just get worse with each passing election .
But so far nobody has found a way to stop them .
And once Democrats are in control in Washington , there will be very little that will be able to be done .
If Democrats are able to take the White House , the Senate and the House of Representatives in November , the big social media companies will deserve a ton of the credit .
They may think that they are “ saving America ” , but the truth is that they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entire history , political speech has never been stifled the way that it is being stifled today .
Our Constitution may still say that we are entitled to free speech , but those that control our most important online gathering places have a much different agenda .

Facebook has just sent us this message. It’s a clear effort at censorship. Every link I post is from a legitimate source. But because so many people are seeing what I’m posting and we’re within weeks of the election it’s clear that Facebook is trying to influence the election’s outcome. It’s also clear Facebook is pushing a leftwing agenda.
Why don’t we ever hear about liberal voices getting censored like this?
Even more alarming is the fact that some Republican candidates for Congress are not being allowed to buy ads for their campaigns at all. Aja Smith is an African-American conservative running in California’s 41st Congressional District, and Facebook has completely banned her from running political advertisements…
Just tried to run a FB ad to promote my FB page and it told me I cannot run political ads or promote my page! I am shadow-banned on Twitter now FB is giving me a hard time.
And other Republican candidates in California also report that they have been shadowbanned by the big social media companies…
Buzz Patterson, candidate for California’s 7th Congressional District told the Globe he and his campaign have been censored and noticed shadow banning. Patterson has 114,100 Twitter followers, but few retweeted posts. Eric Early, candidate for California’s 28th Congressional District says it appears Facebook has limited his followers at 23,000. On Twitter, Early has 84,800 followers, but his Tweets don’t get retweeted as much as they should.
If we allow Facebook and Twitter to keep doing this, it will just get worse with each passing election.
But so far nobody has found a way to stop them.
And once Democrats are in control in Washington, there will be very little that will be able to be done.
If Democrats are able to take the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives in November, the big social media companies will deserve a ton of the credit.
They may think that they are “saving America”, but the truth is that they are actually killing it.
In our entire history, political speech has never been stifled the way that it is being stifled today. Our Constitution may still say that we are entitled to free speech, but those that control our most important online gathering places have a much different agenda.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-10-15--The Deep State Conspiracy That Gave Us Obamacare

Taking into account the criminal deportment of congressional Democrats over the last four years ( one could reasonably argue for more ) and the disgraceful confirmation process attendant to President Donald Trump ’ s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court in 2018 , it was a foregone conclusion that these Democrats would vigorously oppose anyone the president nominated to fill the seat vacated by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg .
Evidently , this goes double for someone with the bona fides of Amy Coney Barrett , a U.S. Court of Appeals judge for the 7th Circuit , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is currently undergoing the confirmation process .
Obviously , the confirmation of any conservative to the Supreme Court is viewed by Democrats as a threat not only to all the political left has accomplished with regard to its agenda , but to all that it seeks to accomplish in the future .
It ’ s also apparent that hyperbole is the order of the day , as far as liberal rhetoric goes , with projection and schoolyard invective running as close seconds .
Whether it ’ s blaming President Trump for COVID-19 deaths @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , conspiracies that have arisen as a result of the overreach of elected Democrats or claims that Trump is raising a white nationalist army , their contentions might elicit uproarious laughter were our situation less grave .
In remarks about President Trump ’ s pick for the Supreme Court , Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden recently claimed that a Supreme Court nominee has never been “ nominated and installed while a presidential election is already underway.
” This was an outright lie , and Biden knew it ; many justices have been nominated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ running for reelection .
This is par for the course , I imagine , given the magnitude of the lies being proffered by leftists these days .
Since there were apparently no parties willing to level decades-old rape allegations against Judge Barrett , and since she can not be accused of racism ( unless she and her husband are covertly engaging their adopted black children as slaves ) , Democrats have elected to characterize a Barrett confirmation as the death knell for the Affordable Care Act ( ACA , or Obamacare ) .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ cases for pretty much everything have been pitifully weak in every quantifiable area for quite a while ( President Trump ’ s impeachment proceedings spring to mind ) , this is also par for the course , and might also elicit uproarious laughter were our situation less grave .
Since Barrett was nominated , Democrats have driven the narrative that if she is confirmed she could be the deciding vote in California v. Texas , a constitutional challenge to Obamacare which contends that the individual mandate in the law is unconstitutional .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are representing the prospect of Obamacare ’ s reversal as though President Trump and congressional Republicans were poised to repeal the entire Bill of Rights .

Taking into account the criminal deportment of congressional Democrats over the last four years (one could reasonably argue for more) and the disgraceful confirmation process attendant to President Donald Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court in 2018, it was a foregone conclusion that these Democrats would vigorously oppose anyone the president nominated to fill the seat vacated by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Evidently, this goes double for someone with the bona fides of Amy Coney Barrett, a U.S. Court of Appeals judge for the 7th Circuit, who was nominated by President Trump and is currently undergoing the confirmation process. Obviously, the confirmation of any conservative to the Supreme Court is viewed by Democrats as a threat not only to all the political left has accomplished with regard to its agenda, but to all that it seeks to accomplish in the future.
It’s also apparent that hyperbole is the order of the day, as far as liberal rhetoric goes, with projection and schoolyard invective running as close seconds. Whether it’s blaming President Trump for COVID-19 deaths (or even the pandemic itself), conspiracies that have arisen as a result of the overreach of elected Democrats or claims that Trump is raising a white nationalist army, their contentions might elicit uproarious laughter were our situation less grave.
In remarks about President Trump’s pick for the Supreme Court, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden recently claimed that a Supreme Court nominee has never been “nominated and installed while a presidential election is already underway.” This was an outright lie, and Biden knew it; many justices have been nominated and installed in election years by presidents running for reelection. This is par for the course, I imagine, given the magnitude of the lies being proffered by leftists these days.
Since there were apparently no parties willing to level decades-old rape allegations against Judge Barrett, and since she cannot be accused of racism (unless she and her husband are covertly engaging their adopted black children as slaves), Democrats have elected to characterize a Barrett confirmation as the death knell for the Affordable Care Act (ACA, or Obamacare).
Well, considering that congressional Democrats’ cases for pretty much everything have been pitifully weak in every quantifiable area for quite a while (President Trump’s impeachment proceedings spring to mind), this is also par for the course, and might also elicit uproarious laughter were our situation less grave.
Since Barrett was nominated, Democrats have driven the narrative that if she is confirmed she could be the deciding vote in California v. Texas, a constitutional challenge to Obamacare which contends that the individual mandate in the law is unconstitutional. In their wild-eyed entreaties, however, Democrats are representing the prospect of Obamacare’s reversal as though President Trump and congressional Republicans were poised to repeal the entire Bill of Rights.
I don’t have to tell regular readers of this column that Obamacare is the legislative equivalent of a botched coat-hanger abortion and a dumpster fire having conceived offspring. From losing the doctors and plans Americans were told they’d be able to keep, to the onerous cost increases, to the innumerable poison pills contained within the law that had to be passed before we could see what was in it, Obamacare has lived up to all of the “fear mongering” its detractors put forth prior to its passage.

Trial attorneys drove up the costs of malpractice insurance for health care providers and hospitals, as well as fostering a culture of litigiousness within the industry. Federal regulators drove up the price of every piece of medical technology through onerous approval processes. Legislators’ refusal to repeal outmoded laws such as the McCarran-Ferguson Act (which disallows interstate competition between insurance firms) guaranteed that health insurance premiums would remain artificially high.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-10-15--In 2019, Cops Arrested More People For Possessing A Plant Than All Violent Crime Combined

In the United States , cannabis is legal for recreational use in 11 states while 33 other states allow some form of medical use .
One would think that with this widespread legalization , which seems to be speeding up , that police officers would start concentrating their efforts elsewhere and arrest actual criminals who hurt people — not kidnap and cage innocent people for using a plant .
Sadly , however , the incentives for arresting cannabis users are too addictive and the police state marches on , laying waste to all the lives it touches along the way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showing why the United States has the largest prison population in the world , is the fact that in 2019 more people were arrested for cannabis than all violent crimes—combined .
According to the recently released Uniform Crime Report police arrested 545,602 people for cannabis related crimes in 2019 .
That arrest rate is 9 % higher than the 495,871 people arrested for violent crimes the same year .
As Forbes points out , cops aren ’ t arresting cannabis kingpins with thousands of pounds of pot , they like to prey on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the low hanging fruit .
“ Police across America make a marijuana-related arrest every 58 seconds , ” explains Erik Altieri , the Executive Director for cannabis advocacy group NORML .
“ At a time when the overwhelming majority of Americans want cannabis to be legal and regulated , it is an outrage that many police departments across the country continue to waste tax dollars and limited law enforcement resources on arresting otherwise law-abiding citizens for simple marijuana possession.
” On top of the fact that kidnapping and caging people for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ utterly inhumane — it ’ s also racist .
According to the ACLU , black people are nearly 400 % more likely to be arrested for pot despite similar usage rates to whites .
The report from the ACLU also shows that in some states , like Montana and Kentucky , black people are arrested for weed nearly 10 times as often as white people , and in some counties , blacks were 50 times more likely to be arrested .
Sadly , the overwhelming majority of protests happening about police reform in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ facts .
If we truly want to stop racist policing , we can eliminate a massive chunk of it literally overnight by telling our employees , police officers , to stop arresting people for arbitrary substances deemed illegal by the state .
In America , the area of government that is most responsible for maintaining a racist system , allowing racist actors to oppress their targets with impunity , and perpetuating the suffering and plight of millions through the persecution of morally innocent individuals — is the war on drugs .
Without a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the racist system by targeting minorities and the poor .
It serves to increase interactions between police—who are often caught joining the force to act out their racist desires—and the citizens .
The drug war , from the police departments to the court systems , unequivocally targets and punishes minorities harder for the same victimless crimes for which their white counterparts receive slaps on the wrist .
As TFTP previously reported , a report in Harper ’ s Magazine , written by Dan Baum set the record straight and relieved all doubt over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ John Daniel Ehrlichman , counsel and domestic policy chief to President Richard Nixon , stated that the war on drugs was literally created — to criminalize blacks and hippies .
According to Baum , he tracked down Ehrlichman in 1994 at his engineering firm in Atlanta , Georgia .
“ You want to know what this was really all about ?
” Ehrlichman bluntly asked Baum of the war on drugs .
“ The Nixon campaign in 1968 , and the Nixon White House after that , had two enemies : the antiwar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what I ’ m saying ?
We knew we couldn ’ t make it illegal to be either against the war or black , but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin , and then criminalizing both heavily , we could disrupt those communities .
We could arrest their leaders , raid their homes , break up their meetings , and vilify them night after night on the evening news .
Did we know we were lying about the drugs ?
Of course we did.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behind the war on drugs serve to further oppress black communities .
The war on drugs is still creating criminals out of otherwise innocent individuals who ’ re caught in possession of arbitrary substances , removing their opportunity for employment by giving them criminal records , and guaranteeing a difficult future within the working class .
It is no coincidence that the ACLU refers to the drug war as the new Jim Crow .
The end to prohibition can not happen fast enough .
For decades otherwise entirely innocent black and brown people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to meet their quotas and profit off the war on drugs and America having the largest prison population in the world is what we have to show for it .
It is no secret that a marijuana conviction is a blow to individual freedom—even if you were lucky enough not to go to jail or have already gotten out .
A drug conviction limits the ability for people to get a job , borrow money , or even find a place to live .
This attack on freedom then leads to a function @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s choices thereby fostering an environment which will lead to that person ending up back in jail .
The case for reparations could even be made for all those whose lives were ruined by the drug war .

As Joe Rogan said nearly a decade ago , “ Prison is for rapists , thieves , and murderers .
If you lock someone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them happy , then you ’ re the f**king criminal.
” 545,602 people were thrown in a cage last year for that plant .
That took a lot of f**king criminals .

In the United States, cannabis is legal for recreational use in 11 states while 33 other states allow some form of medical use. One would think that with this widespread legalization, which seems to be speeding up, that police officers would start concentrating their efforts elsewhere and arrest actual criminals who hurt people — not kidnap and cage innocent people for using a plant. Sadly, however, the incentives for arresting cannabis users are too addictive and the police state marches on, laying waste to all the lives it touches along the way.
Illustrating this utter insanity, and showing why the United States has the largest prison population in the world, is the fact that in 2019 more people were arrested for cannabis than all violent crimes—combined.
According to the recently released Uniform Crime Report police arrested 545,602 people for cannabis related crimes in 2019. That arrest rate is 9% higher than the 495,871 people arrested for violent crimes the same year.
As Forbes points out, cops aren’t arresting cannabis kingpins with thousands of pounds of pot, they like to prey on the little people, known to cops as the low hanging fruit.
The vast majority of these arrests (92%) were for simple possession of the drug. 500,395 of those arrested for cannabis were simply found in possession of cannabis. Even if we take out all the arrests for being involved in unregulated cannabis commerce and just focus on arrests for cannabis possession, the numbers still outpace arrests for violent crimes.
“Police across America make a marijuana-related arrest every 58 seconds,” explains Erik Altieri, the Executive Director for cannabis advocacy group NORML. “At a time when the overwhelming majority of Americans want cannabis to be legal and regulated, it is an outrage that many police departments across the country continue to waste tax dollars and limited law enforcement resources on arresting otherwise law-abiding citizens for simple marijuana possession.”
On top of the fact that kidnapping and caging people for a plant that heals and helps them is utterly inhumane — it’s also racist. According to the ACLU, black people are nearly 400% more likely to be arrested for pot despite similar usage rates to whites. The report from the ACLU also shows that in some states, like Montana and Kentucky, black people are arrested for weed nearly 10 times as often as white people, and in some counties, blacks were 50 times more likely to be arrested.
Sadly, the overwhelming majority of protests happening about police reform in America right now are silent about these facts. If we truly want to stop racist policing, we can eliminate a massive chunk of it literally overnight by telling our employees, police officers, to stop arresting people for arbitrary substances deemed illegal by the state.
In America, the area of government that is most responsible for maintaining a racist system, allowing racist actors to oppress their targets with impunity, and perpetuating the suffering and plight of millions through the persecution of morally innocent individuals — is the war on drugs.
Without a doubt, the war on drugs fuels the racist system by targeting minorities and the poor. It serves to increase interactions between police—who are often caught joining the force to act out their racist desires—and the citizens.
The drug war, from the police departments to the court systems, unequivocally targets and punishes minorities harder for the same victimless crimes for which their white counterparts receive slaps on the wrist.
As TFTP previously reported, a report in Harper’s Magazine, written by Dan Baum set the record straight and relieved all doubt over the intentions of the drug war. John Daniel Ehrlichman, counsel and domestic policy chief to President Richard Nixon, stated that the war on drugs was literally created — to criminalize blacks and hippies.
According to Baum, he tracked down Ehrlichman in 1994 at his engineering firm in Atlanta, Georgia.
“You want to know what this was really all about?” Ehrlichman bluntly asked Baum of the war on drugs. “The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people.

We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”
To this day, the racist intentions behind the war on drugs serve to further oppress black communities. The war on drugs is still creating criminals out of otherwise innocent individuals who’re caught in possession of arbitrary substances, removing their opportunity for employment by giving them criminal records, and guaranteeing a difficult future within the working class.
It is no coincidence that the ACLU refers to the drug war as the new Jim Crow.
The end to prohibition cannot happen fast enough. For decades otherwise entirely innocent black and brown people have been the target of cops attempting to meet their quotas and profit off the war on drugs and America having the largest prison population in the world is what we have to show for it.
It is no secret that a marijuana conviction is a blow to individual freedom—even if you were lucky enough not to go to jail or have already gotten out. A drug conviction limits the ability for people to get a job, borrow money, or even find a place to live. This attack on freedom then leads to a function known as recidivism which limits an individual’s choices thereby fostering an environment which will lead to that person ending up back in jail.
The case for reparations could even be made for all those whose lives were ruined by the drug war. Although a pardon and freedom would be far easier and faster. Until these protesters start calling for an end to the drug war, very little will change.
As Joe Rogan said nearly a decade ago, “Prison is for rapists, thieves, and murderers. If you lock someone up for smoking a plant that makes them happy, then you’re the f**king criminal.”
545,602 people were thrown in a cage last year for that plant. That took a lot of f**king criminals.
