Bad Bad Karma: Democrats don’t trust guards, take their ammo, and seek out Trump sympathizers

Not acting like a team that won Eighty Million votes

Democrats have fed division so well they now don’t trust the National Guard. 

National Guard

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. defense officials say they are worried about an insider attack or other threat from service members involved in securing President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, prompting the FBI to vet all of the 25,000 National Guard troops coming into Washington for the event.

The massive undertaking reflects the extraordinary security concerns that have gripped Washington following the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump rioters. And it underscores fears that some of the very people assigned to protect the city over the next several days could present a threat to the incoming president and other VIPs in attendance.

According to @amuse, the Biden transition team have confiscated their ammo, and wanted to ask who the Guard voted for. The insulting request was refused initially, though eventually, sadly, the Army acquiesced.

”We’re continually going through the process, and taking second, third looks at every one of the individuals assigned to this operation,” McCarthy said in an interview after he and other military leaders went through an exhaustive, three-hour security drill in preparation for Wednesday’s inauguration. He said Guard members are also getting training on how to identify potential insider threats.

The FBI got involved. @amuse says “Any soldiers who believe there was election fraud are being referred for disciplinary action and removed from the Capitol.” Sounds dreadful. 

It’s all Trumps fault of course. If only he hadn’t been so popular, all that cheating wouldn’t have been necessary:

In contrast, the threats against Biden’s inauguration have been fueled by supporters of President Donald Trump, far-right militants, white supremacists and other radical groups. Many believe Trump’s baseless accusations that the election was stolen from him, a claim that has been refuted by many courts, the Justice Department and Republican officials in key battleground states.

The Democrats get to play the Victim card on the national spotlight, they add more loaded questions. And perhaps this horrible “vetting”  process has a side  “benefit”? It might work like the CCP brainwashing techniques. Getting guards to publicly state who they voted for (or lie about it) might work. If people do it often enough they might start to believe they really did vote for Biden and that the claims of voter fraud were “baseless”.

But even if that doesn’t work, many members of the National Guard will be that much warier next week to say who they voted for.

Welcome to the world of Democrat Healing.

The Big Tech Wreck: Twitter appoints themselves the Global Conversation Police

In a brilliant move Twitter told one of its top five most popular products to go sit in the Naughty Corner forever. Since then, Twitter stock has fallen by around $7 billion or about one sixth. It couldn’t’ happen to a nicer company.

There were around 330 million Twitter users in toto in 2020 and nearly 90 million of them followed President Trump. But it’s worth remembering that only about 20% of people use Twitter, most of them apparently being rich millenials, which might explain why the whole company seems to operate like a fashion contest.

By banning Donald Trump, Twitter have shone a 2 megawatt searchlight on their own competitors, and asked nearly half their customers to “go try them.” Good move Twitter.

Twitter on the slide: 

TWTR Twitter STock Price January 2021

 

Are Big Tech and Big Government Overplaying Their Hand?

Dan Gerlernter, American Greatness

It is extraordinary that three-quarters of Republicans, according to a Quinnipiac poll, believe there was widespread voter fraud in the election, when YouTube is removing videos on the subject as fast as they are put up, and Twitter has now blocked the account of the president himself.

But the tech oligarchs who have become the de facto national leaders are not students of history nor are they men of any deep conviction—they are simply children with money. They were raised, in America’s schools, without any commitment to or understanding of the value of free speech. And they are equally ignorant of the history of tyranny. So just as they make bad democrats (with a small ‘d’), they make equally ham-handed dictators.

The criminalization of thought and speech goes back to the French Revolution and much earlier. It is freedom of speech, and not its suppression, that is the recent and real innovation, and which today remains unique to America. If Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey had studied any of this, they would know that you cannot make people agree with you just by preventing them from saying what they think. All you can buy with censorship and suppression and even the threat of violence is nothing more than the appearance of conformity and the semblance of agreement. Suppression doesn’t make thoughts go away—it drives them underground. There, as Winston Churchill pointed out, they become twice as potent for being forbidden: “A little mouse, a little tiny mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Those casual enemies of free speech who today dominate the tech landscape have a much weaker hand than they think. Twitter has fewer daily active users in the United States than Trump had Twitter followers. Amazon Web Services and its politically aligned competitors Google, Microsoft, and IBM may appear to be the only game in town for web hosting, but that, too, will change.

New Dreams of Independence

By expunging millions of users from their ecosystem, the tech giants have created a huge and ready customer base waiting to be served. And, in a mostly free market, it will not be long before new companies arise not only to serve those orphaned customers, but to challenge and depose today’s potentates.

Perhaps never in the history of any industry has a dominant faction so openly invited its own destruction.

Twitter are the Global Conversation Police

Whistleblowers from Twitter send in these videos to Project Veritas.

I used to think Twitter had a cunning plan til I heard these two (Gadde and Dorsey) talk. Now I suspect it’s got more to do with personal fashion statements and impressing their friends.

Vijaya Gadde is a Silicon Valley lawyer who studied industrial and labor relations. Somehow it makes sense to her that she should be appointed as the Global Conversation Constable, managing the President like he was a toddler.

Wikimedia tells us that Gadde doesn’t like being censored herself. “At Twitter, Gadde has made protecting privacy and opposing the censorship of Twitter internationally policy priorities, notably by filing suit to oppose the 2014 Turkish ban of Twitter.[8] Righto. 

A few days ago Project Veritas got a whistleblower from within Twitter that sent in a recording of Jack Dorsey who blandly talks about bigger and deeper censorship like he’s supplying widgets rather than trying to get 330 million people to agree with him.

My favourite winning line:

“The US is extremely divided , he says...  our role is to protect the integrity of that conversation…. ” by forcing half the country to shut up and listen.

Giving people a voice is so old hat,  Twitter aims to to promote health and happiness and  “ensure no one is being harmed by” crushing their voices, exiling people from the conversation and stopping wise people from sharing their thoughts..

 

Feel free to express yourself indeed.

The 50 Armed Protests that came to nothing apart from a few guys “who work with BLM and Antifa”

The FBI apparently didn’t save the nation from a semi-naked man with a spear who walked into the US Senate on one of the most important sitting days of Congress ever. But it warned a week ago of “Armed Protests” between Jan 17 and Jan 20th. There are still a few days left before inauguration day, but the big threat supposedly was 50 armed events at all state capitols on Jan 17th.

What threat?

(CNN)The FBI has received information indicating “armed protests” are being planned at all 50 state capitols and the US Capitol in Washington, DC in the days leading up to President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20, according to an internal bulletin obtained by CNN.

The news comes as security measures are being stepped up ahead of Inauguration Day, …
But who called for an armed protest — a reckless and risky move in the current environment? Not President Trump. The main evidence, apparently, was a flyer that called for an Armed March for 12PM Jan 17th. Was there any other credible threat?
Oddly,  the flyer was issued without any author or organisation.  Warnings went out on conservative sites saying “it’s a trap”. 
Poster calling for an Armed Protest

An anonymous flyer calling for an armed protest?

Andrea Wideberg: “DO NOT ATTEND.  There is a 99.99999% certainty that this is a trap intended to give Democrats an excuse to destroy the Second Amendment and, quite possibly, to cordon off from society all Republicans and conservatives. Here’s the flyer, which we reproduce so that you’ll recognize it should you see it.  As you look at it, realize that you are the mouse, and this flyer is the cheese. “

Gateway Pundit also warned against it, and tracked a source (sorta, maybe) to  KennethBrooks1911 on Parler with a hashtag of #boogaloo. A Gateway reader followed the flyer back further and found someone called ““Turtle” at Tree of Liberty who announced the rally fully 2 months ago.

What emergency?

A thread called Capitol City Protest Tracker today couldn’t find a single big event on Sunday at 12 noon:

On Sunday, law enforcement members and journalists outnumbered the few people who showed up at state capitols across the nation.  A few states like Michigan and Ohio had large groups show up, some wearing attire or affiliating themselves with the boogaloo movement. Other than that it was a peaceful Sunday for most.

Police officers and journalists vastly outnumbered the small number of protesters who made an appearance. One of the more colorful demonstrators came with a sign reading “Spread the Love Honk Honk.” “It’s a beautiful day — nothing happening here,” one man said as he biked past the Old Capitol.

Jack Posobiec (a reporter at OANN) tweets about the Boogaloo Movement:

The Right Wing Boogaloo Movement are so far right they wear BLM shirts.
Brendan Gutenschwager reports from a protest in Lansing:
@BGOnTheScene ·
While discussing Joe Biden at today’s Lansing protest, one of the Boogaloo members says “at least the BLM and the Antifa people we work with hate them just as much” and speaks out against the Democratic establishment #Michigan #Lansing #BoogalooBois #Capitol    [Link to video]
If only the FBI had seen the January 6 Capitol event coming?
Is the FBI just incompetent,  or is it “successful” but mainly as a PR wing for the Democrats?  Could there be a pattern here? The fails both under and overstate the risks. But seemingly every fail allows media messages that are helpful to the Democrats: Hunter-Biden laptop held for 12 months while the Democrats pick his father as “best” candidate for President and the nation goes to the polls. Then there is the lack of any real protection for Capitol Hill on Jan 6, followed by the huge preparation for the fifty armed protests that were almost nothing. Tick, tick, tick.
Reuters doesn’t see it as an FBI failure, instead it hints unnecessarily, in a cumbersome sentence, that not many Trump supporters believe the Presidents “False Claim” that he won the 2020 election.
HARRISBURG, Pa./LANSING, Mich. (Reuters) – Law enforcement officers far outnumbered protesters at state capitol grounds on Sunday, as few Trump supporters who believe the president’s false claim that he won the 2020 election turned out for what authorities feared could be violent demonstrations.
Now is not the time to mention that when Trump did call for supporters to turn up, hundreds of thousands came.

More than a dozen states activated National Guard troops to help secure their capitol buildings following an FBI warning of armed demonstrations, with right-wing extremists emboldened by the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol in Washington on Jan. 6.

Security officials had eyed Sunday as the first major flashpoint, as the anti-government “boogaloo” movement made plans weeks ago to hold rallies in all 50 states.

A $460m budget and the capitol police let in Mr Horns plus a spear?

The Capitol Hill Police Force has 2,300 officers and a budget of $460 million, it’s bigger than the entire Atlanta Police force, yet Jake Angeli, or “Buffalo man” made it all the way into the Senate Chamber with a full metal spear “disguised” as a flag staff with just a cable tie.

And they even had three days warning.

The whole force answers to Nancy Pelosi. If the storming of Capitol Hill was “a coup” in progress, Pelosi’s leadership was an incompetent failure. But if the storming was a Publicity stunt, allowing Mr Spear-n-Horns in to star in front page spreads was a success.

The Capitol Hill Riot Was Pelosi’s Fault, Not Trump’s

Daniel Greenfield, Frontpage Mag

The media has constructed a false narrative in which the White House overreacted to BLM and underreacted to the Capitol riot. But it wasn’t the White House’s job to protect Congress. That’s why Congress has a force of 2,300 people and a $460 million budget with just one job to do.

The question of why it failed at that job ought to be directed to Pelosi and congressional leaders.

The Capitol riot is Pelosi’s disaster and she’s making the most of it by blaming it on everyone else. Her private police force had the resources and the people to keep out the Visigoths, never mind a few hundred people, and instead turned what should have been a riot into a disaster.

100 million hateful Tweets against Trump: Twitter is The Left wing Hate Machine

Social media platform Gab has not only backed up Donald Trump’s entire Twitter account, they stored millions of the replies to him as well. Gab has been conducting a secret program called the Liberal Hate Machine — where they back up all the toxic replies in a searchable database.

While Twitter is perma-banning Trump for telling people to march peacefully, they are happy to publish vile abusive threats against him every day of the year.

Gab estimates that there are 100 million toxic replies. (like this?)

Gab goes after Twitter

by Human Events Staff

Social media platform Gab revealed Sunday that they have been collecting examples of hateful and potentially illegal threats, slurs and other comments made in response to President Donald Trump’s tweets.

“For months we have been backing up every reply to Donald Trump’s tweets,” the site wrote in a tweet that has since been deleted. “We call this project the Liberal Hate Machine.”

“It conducts sentiment analysis to detect threats of violence, slurs and more. There’s a LOT. It’s searchable too. Stay tuned,” the tweet said.

As Gab saysWe have 100m+ tweets …Twitter is a very hateful and violent place…”

Twitter has already deleted the Gab tweets . “Sorry that twitter doesn’t exist!”

Mass murder is OK  says Twitter: 

NewYork Post:

And while Trump’s alleged calls for violence, in fact he explicitly called for peaceful protest, got him banned, the Ayatollah Khamenei tweeted this in November, “. . . Palestine will be free, while the fake Zionist regime will perish. There’s no doubt about this.” So encouraging a completely legal challenge to election results gets our President banned, but the leader of Iran’s brutal state threatening to wipe out Israel is no problem at all.

We can always go to Poland for free speech:

Mexican Leader wants free speech too

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador… has announced a plan to rally other leaders around the world against social media censorship that has escalated in unprecedented ways over these last days.

Obrador specified that he would bring the issue up in the G20 format and is now inviting other countries to join the effort, making it clear that the initiative was sparked by the recent banning of US President Trump by major social networks. Obrador wondered, “How can a company act as if it was all-powerful, omnipotent?”

How does it feel to live in a land which is being criticized for free speech from Mexico, Russia and Poland?

Psychic? Capitol attack, not so spontaneously incited days before speech happened

It didn’t matter what Trump said, days before he said it, people were already planning the attack, and the FBI, NYPD, and USCP knew that too.

Is this a one day drive-by impeachment, asks John Solomon. Before the evidence is even presented? Reporter, John Solomon wants to know if Pelosi et al were advised in advance, what did they know? If they didn’t know, it was a failure of the police. If they did know, it’s a scandal that they didn’t say something in advance or put in proper security.

The US Attorney is bringing a conspiracy case which can’t happen if there wasn’t advance planning.

As usual, a whole lot of innocent law-abiding people, just can’t supply the evidence that shows how innocent they are. The DC police are investigating the Capitol attack, but won’t supply the evidence to an FOIA because, wait for it, it might be “personally embarrassing”? The whole event is being used to in an attempt to accuse, impeach and humiliate The President, but we must protect some underling (who) instead? Or perhaps we need to “protect” the citizens from being able to make up their own minds?

Just the News: “How could Trump incite an attack that had already been pre-planned and was in motion before his speech ended?:

The FBI admitted Tuesday it received information ahead of the Jan. 6 tragedy suggesting some participants were planning a “war” on the Capitol, including killing officers and distributing maps of the complex. It alerted Washington D.C. law enforcement through the joint terrorism task force alert system. It also “disrupted” the travel plans of some of the suspected trouble-makers.

“We developed some intelligence that a number of individuals were planning to travel to the D.C. area with intentions to cause violence,” Assistant Director Steven M. D’Antuono said. “We immediately shared that information, and action was taken.”

The New York Police Department is reported to have given the Capitol Police similar intelligence warnings of impending violence.

The chief federal prosecutor in Washington declared Tuesday he is pursuing conspiracy charges, signaling the attacks on the Capitol involved multiple acts and multiple conspirators working in concert with each other. The prosecutor talked about the planting of carefully constructed IEDs as one such act.

John Solomon also discusses ObamaGate documents to be declassified tomorrow. Donald Trump is releasing a “foot high pile” of FBI documents from the Christopher Steele case Friday US time. The FBI was spying on the Trump campaign as early as August 2016 before he was even elected.  “Explosive Stuff”.


The National Guard is all over Congress now, which is a great Photo Op for the Left. But when the Police Chief asked for them before the event he was refused.

The U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, who resigned after the attack, told The Washington Post that security officials at the House and Senate rebuffed his early request to call in the National Guard ahead of a protest.

DC Police Reject FOIA Request For Records Related to Their Probe of Siege of Capitol – Insider Leaked Maps, Internal Docs to Help Assist Rioters Navigate Building

Cristina Laila, GatewayPundit

President Trump was blamed for the siege of the US Capitol last Wednesday, however the FBI confirmed the attack was planned several days in advance.

Solomon said the FBI, NYPD and USCP had prior knowledge of plans for violence at the US Capitol, including intel threatening murder of police officer.

If this was a planned attack, you can’t accuse the President of inciting a spontaneous attack when it was planned days before.

John Solomon also said that inside sources leaked maps, internal documents helping to assist rioters enter and navigate the Capitol building.

In the video below Antifa or BLM leader John Sullivan breaks glass, films fatal shooting, incites violence and brags about pretending to be a Trump supporter. A CNN reporter, Jade Sacker, was there on the day and recorded it, but they didn’t show the nation on their nightly news?

While most Trump supporters were still more than a mile away listening to President Trump, the rioters were already crashing into Congress.

Timeline reveals Capitol Hill riot began 20 mins before end of Trump’s speech

The New York Times compiled video footage with time stamps to document nearly every moment of Jan. 6 siege of the Capitol building in Washington D.C.

The timeline shows that the violence at the Capitol building began 20 minutes before Trump finished his speech that Wednesday afternoon.

The vital events of that day took place in an approximately two hour period from roughly 1 pm to after 3 pm.

Roughly 20 minutes before the end of his speech is when scuffles began to break out between protesters and police on Capitol Hill, according to the NYT’s timeline.

Police could be seen about 1 pm holding off groups of violent protesters pushing up against the thin police line in front of the Capitol steps. This was when the first police barriers were reportedly breached by the mob.

Junk study on Vitamin D shows nothing much but how bad science reporting is

The Sun provides Vitamin D

The Sunlight Vitamin

UPDATED! Mea Culpa from me. The post has been corrected*.  Thanks to Rob.

__________________

More junk reporting from the Australian government broadcaster the ABC which just copies the junk science press release. Is this what we pay $1b a year for?

The Journalists missed the key factor which was blood levels of participants.

The headline says Clinical trial finds vitamin D does not ward off colds and flu  but all it really shows is that in a group that already have *normal, non-deficient levels* of Vitamin D, taking big doses of Vitamin D once a month won’t will raise your blood levels — but won’t make a big difference to your risk of respiratory infections. And it only applies to people aged 60 -74.

Most participants in the study had a normal but sub-optimal Vit D levels and after five years of sporadic high doses, were raised to optimal levels at the end.

After taking 60,000 IU each month, supplementers apparently went from having 77.5  nmol/L up to 114.8 nmol/L,. To put this in perspective, normal levels of Vitamin D start at “50” and above, and there are professors who point out that there are many reasons to aim for Vitamin D levels of “100 – 150”.  Toxicity starts from 220nmol/L.

UPDATE: As we saw in the Brenner et al study of 10,000 Germans, when people are quite deficient (below 30 nmol/L) they are twice as likely to die of respiratory diseases as people whose blood levels are normal — defined as being above 50 nmol/L. The people who are most at risk of dying are those who are clinically deficient at below 20 nmol/L. Their risk was 3 times greater.  That study showed that a shocking 40% of all respiratory deaths might possibly be due to being deficient in Vitamin D. This new study in Queensland only shows that raising Vitamin D levels in people who are not deficient won’t make much difference.

If so-called science journalists only bothered spend five minutes reading the short summary (not even the whole paper) they could report something useful. See  The Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology. The journalists made a big deal of how the “researchers analysed self-reported health data from 16,000 Australians aged between 60 and 84”. But the study ruled out most participants, and ended up with only 2,598 people.

I rate the study: barely worth noticing.

The shoddy work by “science communicators” is just another example of how science writing becomes de facto mere repetition of press releases which are usually dependent on government funding. No hard questions asked.

If you don’t know or care much about Vitamin D3 you may want to find out how it’s linked to all cause mortality (unlike nearly every other vitamin) : Let’s solve the other pandemic: Vitamin D deficiency — to help beat Coronavirus?

How did a horned Shamen end up representing the Christian right?

It was the perfect PsyOp photo. With hundreds of thousands of Trump supporters to pick from, somehow the photo on every media front page last week was of Jake Angeli standing in The Capitol. Listen to him talk about his beliefs to ward off evil spirits and witches.

Try to think of an image designed to horrify middle America more than a hairy chested horned man with tats and bare nipples in a furry hunting hood? Perhaps a hooded storm-trooper with an AK47 smattered in blood. But that might be confused with Antifa.

Nothing says barbaric quite as well as an escapee from the neolithic. So once Angeli was inside the heart of Democracy, it’s no accident or conspiracy that the hate-media picked up his photo.

The question is, why was the door open to Mr Horns, but a bullet headed for the Air Force Vet?

How is it, that the path to the Speakers Chair was blocked from so many but not to the most toxic photo-op possible? If Ashli Babbitt was sitting in the chair instead, the Shock and Awe campaign wouldn’t have had much ammo.

It’s almost like a PR committee sat down to ask: “What photo do we want to associate Trump with to horrify good Americans?”

Rep Marjorie Greene to file Biden impeachment on Jan 21 for foreign influence

Biden to face impeachment charges on Day 1 of his presidency

Hours after the House voted to impeach Donald Trump, a Republican announced she would file for impeachment of Joe Biden:

“We have to make sure our leaders are accountable and … not easily bought off by foreign governments” — Marjorie Greene

“If the Democrats want to lower the bar on what impeachment is, let’s roll with that.”

Newsmax TV


….

The Hill:

In her Newsmax interview Wednesday, which aired hours after the House voted to impeach Trump for a second time, the Greene said she plans on filing the articles of impeachment to show Americans that “there are Republicans in Congress that are willing to stand up and fight for them.”

“I’m a big believer of having people in office who are actually willing to do the job, and I can’t imagine people in this country being so fearful of a future of a Biden presidency that they may be willing to commit violence like they did in the Capitol here in Washington, D.C. We cannot have that, I do not condone that violence,” the congresswoman said.

Note that in October last year, there were people pointing out that the Democrats would be happy to impeach Biden themselves if they won. All hail Kamala.

Gab, surging, has copies of all Trump’s tweets

The great regrouping of Global Social Media is just starting.

Gab LogoIn the last four days 1.7 million new users have signed up to Gab — an alternative site to Twitter. The surge is so strong the site is swamped under the load. Gab are upgrading all the servers to deal with the growth. (The CEO is asking for patience).

Gab has already been thrown off both the big Ap Stores and Amazon too, back in 2018. To ensure that wouldn’t happen again, they bought and set up their own private servers.  (The internet really is hardware, after all).

They not only set up their own servers, they even created their own web browser (called Dissenter). They also built a video platform (Gab.TV.) and an encrypted email chat messaging service (Chat.Gab.).I have used Dissenter for months. I like it. There are rumours they are working on a Gab Phone as well.

Nothing will hurt Google, Amazon and Twitter like losing half their base.

It’s been a four year war for the CEO, Andrew Torba.

Look at the vilification this 30 year old outspoken Christian has had to endure:

As a result of Torba’s free speech principles, both Gab and Andrew have been no-platformed and banned by 25+ service providers over the years including both App Stores, multiple payment processors, and hosting providers.

Torba himself has been personally banned from online banks, cryptocurrency exchanges, and Twitter for many years now. His family is also blacklisted by VISA.

Andrew Torba has also faced numerous threats of violence, doxxing, stalking, and more for his fight to defend free speech online for all people.

Want to see ALL Donald Trumps Tweets?

The CEO Andrew Torba had the wit to back up President’s Trumps entire Twitter account before it was deleted.

So far President Trump has not added any new tweets Gab’s mirror account: @realdonaldtrump. (Which is very slow to load).

It’s possible to read all the Presidents tweets without Warnings and deletions. Not being treated like a baby might catch on?!

Insurrection now means “asking questions”

Tucker Carlson lays out the radioactive hypocrisy of those who advocated insurrection and riots and now pretend to advocate for rule of law. The word “insurrection” had a whole different meaning in 2016 and for most of history.

Those who control the language…

Really worth watching.

John Matze ran a company that was worth half a billion dollars on Friday, but Parler went from number one in the Apple Ap store to zero overnight. Matze now says he can’t go home for fear of his safety. It appears that Parler have done a deal with Epik to shift there (which also houses Gab). Judging by this Newsweek article Epik are already so hated and tarred, they have no fear.

Silencing, blacklists, and electronic exile smell just like a Social Credit system. Will Americans let that stand?

If Global Corporations Walk Away from Republicans the GOP Will Have to Listen to New Voters

Stacey Lennox

“A significant majority of Americans, 73%, have a negative view of China. Continued international integration will hurt working and middle-class Americans the most. If Republicans plan on winning elections, these are the voters they will have to both listen to and appeal to. The party will need to develop a slate of policies that increase these families’ prosperity and security to combat the destruction that Democrats and their allies in big business will do with horrible energy and trade policy.”

Via Glenn Reynolds Instapundit

Any talk of “winning elections” depends on having free and fair ones. There is still some states where that happens, and that’s where we have to start and build from.

Tech Giants rule the United States and the Purge continues

No dissent will be allowed:

Craven groupthinkers Verizon, AirBnB, Marriot, Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, Hilton Hotels, American Airlines, BP, Coca Cola, Goldman Sachs, Boston Scientific, Microsoft, Facebook and Visa all suspended contributions to any member of Congress that objected to the Electoral college. We wonder if that in cludes all the past Democrats who did the exact same thing.

Hallmark Cards took it further and spread some badwill — it even asked for its donations back from the representatives who represented the millions of Americans who doubt election integrity. Election integrity does “not reflect our company’s values.” they said, or words to that effect. Their cards were always overpriced anyway.

The current state of healing in the United States:

Former CIA Director John O. Brennan, called 74 million Americans a “malignancy” and demanded they denounce Trump to eradicate wrongthink or something:

Silence is violence. Ignorance is Strength and the CIA is crooked.

The tentacles of the TechGiants spread through the Democrats

Tech-monster, Democrat, what’s the difference?

TennesseeStar reports:

At least seven former higher-ups of Facebook or the charity run by its founder, Mark Zuckerberg, have secured positions in President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team, despite Democratic Party officials labeling the social media giant among the biggest threats to American democracy.

Jessica Hertz was the Director of Facebooks regulatory team and is the new Whitehouse staff director. She used to work for Biden before she worked for Facebook.

“The ultimate arbiter for ethics for the Biden transition was a senior regulatory official for Facebook up until a few months ago, at a time when progressives and the Biden campaign are fighting against the right-wing agenda of Facebook,” said the Director of the Revolving Door Project, Jeff Hauser, according to Politico.

Facebook’s Jeff Zients is now the China virus chief in the USA. NSA spokeswoman Emily Horne was the former head of global policy communications for Twitter. Before that she worked for the NSC under Obama. Former Facebook Director of Public Policy Louisa Terrell will direct the White House Office of Legislative Affairs.

As for the TechGiants: Junk them or at least delete your personal data and join me on MeWe and Gab.

Good news, Parler has finally found a webserver that will host it. Epik. But freemen need to start thinking of owning their own servers, and since Obama gave the Internet to the UN, sooner or later it will ban anyone who doubts the TechnoDem commandments. What then?

For people sick of being told how horrible you are on the ABC/BBC/CBC watch Lou Dobbs instead.

I don’t claim anything, except that making No-Fly lists seems like the sort of thing the DemoTech Octopus would like to do if it hasn’t already. Perhaps they just want people to worry that they might do it. Fear, after all, is the ultimate currency. Even spreading false rumours of No-Fly lists will deter patriots from attending protests. So much easier than actually doing it!

Eight or so hours from now President Trump will speak from Alamo, Texas. Correct me if I’m wrong: That’s 3PM in New York,  7AM in Melbourne and Sydney, 6AM QLD, 4AM WA, Australia. It might matter.

Michael Yon: the US is in early stages of a civil war. “Unmistakable”.

Michael Yon is a journalist and photographer who has served with US special forces overseas. He is the “most experienced combat correspondent” in the US. He covers wars overseas, not elections, but says the US is in the early stages of a civil war. “It’s unmistakable. ”

First watch Alex Jones’s footage of January 6, then hear the details from Yon.

Provocateurs tried and failed to incite even more violence at Capitol Hill

Trump supporters were hard to “whip into action”.

How easy would it be for a couple of hundred provocateurs to attend a rally with nearly a million law abiding citizens and create mayhem?

Why was John Sullivan, a known and violent BLM activist, leading the spearhead of the protest? He was not just in the lead, he was the man who filmed Ashli Babbit’s shooting and death. The Daily Mail even reported this, and accepted that he is a known left wing activist, but “did not specify what exactly brought him there”. What brought him there was evidently the urge to tell Trump Supporters to “Burn Down the building” which they wouldn’t do.  John Sullivan was last seen wandering the streets freely, not charged with anything.

Trump supporters did not set fire to anything, they didn’t set off the handy pipe bombs left lying around. They also didn’t shine lasers into the eyes of police officers, or destroy any heritage art or historic statues. Even the New York Times reports that “The damage was largely limited to broken glass, busted doors and graffiti….”

But that’s a constitutional crisis. “Impeach him!”

UPDATE: I haven’t commented on the tragic death of Officer Brian Sicknick, a Trump supporter appallingly beaten to death on January 6th. I await evidence as to  who was responsible.

“Your outrage is being manufactured”

Alex Jones, of InfoWars was at the protest. He says the provocateurs hoped to create much more damage, but failed:  It only got about 1% of the violence they hoped for because honest law abiding Trump supporters were so hard to whip into action.

This is quite a powerful little video:

By infiltrating traditional protests Antifa and BLM  make it hard for law abiding citizens to be able to protest in future. Each event becomes an advertising meme for those prepared to lie, cheat, loot and vandalize.

Blame the media. When the left loot, it’s a peaceful protest. Will any of the Antifa and BLM troublemakers get charged or lose their job?

“The US is in Early Stages of Civil War”

UPDATE: Here’s Michael Yon, who worked for 7 months in Hong Kong with the resistance there, and was also at Capitol Hill. He says that Antifa were training in Hong Kong at the time and they have brought back many of the well honed tactics from there — including shields, and the professional agent provocateur. People were also changing their clothes on the scene. He’s written three books trying to warn the Japanese they are facing a similar situation.

The Epoch Times say they have many videos of Trump supporters calling out the Antifa members and trying to stop them damaging things.

 

At least the Wall Street Journal is reporting expert legal advice who says:

No, Trump Isn’t Guilty of Incitement

Inflaming emotions isn’t a crime. The president didn’t mention violence, much less provoke it.

Wall Street Journal

The president didn’t commit incitement or any other crime. I should know. As a Washington prosecutor I earned the nickname “protester prosecutor” from the antiwar group CodePink.

Bill Gates new Climate Plan — save the world and buy your own private jet airline?

The new book coming in 4 weeks to set out his plan for reaching zero emissions.

Bill Gates, How to Avoid a Climate Disaster

Bill Gates, How to Avoid a Climate Disaster

In the meantime Bill Gates is bidding 4.3 billion dollars to buy a whole airline. Signature Aviation is a company that handles 1.6 million private jet flights a year, all of which produce about 40 times as much carbon per passenger.

Who cares about carbon then?

The Rumor that this is One Awesome Sting Operation

This letter below from the Nye County Chairman of the Republican Party, Nevada, is circulating: a full prophesy of Trump’s Most Awesome Win Yet.

I post parts of it here in the spirit that this is:

  1. A great plot for a spy novel.
  2. The Christmas wish list of US Conservatives — the innate appeal of a surprise sucker punch to the corruptocrats is exactly what honest people want to hear. That doesn’t make it true. But it is interesting to discuss nonetheless.
  3. Maybe a complicated fake story designed to fool Trump fans. A sting about a sting. Perhaps someone wants conservatives to do nothing while they wait “For The Great Rescue”, or to fuel anger later.
  4. Possibly a fake story leaked by the Good Guys to scare some confessions or panicked reactions out of some real people.

Any which way, it’s a springboard for speculation about why it is or isn’t likely. If Trump is going to pull this blockbuster feat off, it will have to be in the next few days surely? The true story may be that some of this is real, but the clock may run out.  If Lt General McInerney (below) is right, they have Pelosi’s laptop to analyze, which he points out, is making her frantic. If the Italian Affadavit is solid, there must be international evidence to collect.

Meanwhile Pelosi and co are painting Trump as the insurrectionist attempting a coup while they try to oust the current President of the United States.

Themes similar to this (below) have been circulating for two months. The implacable confidence is beguiling. It seems there’s always Hopium on the horizon. At least until Jan 21. (h/t David. Charles. Meglort. Henning  Neilson).

______________________________________________________

Part I: a letter from a Republican Party Nye county chairman, yesterday.

Let me be clear: Trump will be president for another four years. Biden will not be president. Yes, I know those are shocking words in these crazy days.
I have been approached by many saying, “It’s over…” and “Trump conceded the election…”. Nothing of the sort has taken place. Go back and listen to the videos all the way through. At no point does Trump even mention Biden’s name. At no point does he say he concedes. He does say that there will be a peaceful transition to a new administration and he does say that this is only the beginning. Those phrases are important to note. Indeed, we will have a new administration made up of a new vice president and cabinet as the current ones have all made their treason complete. I will touch on this in more detail shortly.
We do well to remember that for more than four years Donald Trump has been five steps ahead of everyone in every attempt to derail him, impeach him, or confound him. For example, he announced on election night in the early hours of the morning that he “didn’t want a dump of ballots at 4AM.” What happened in just a few short hours at almost exactly 4AM? A huge ballot dump took place which showed that he already knew that it was going to take place. That was a public word to the enemies of our country that he was on to them.
I say all this as only two examples out of many that at no point has our president been in a fight of desperation.
Now you may ask, “Why hasn’t Trump arrested anyone yet? Why did this have to go all the way to Congress?” Multiple reasons: first, Trump has been adamant in following the rule of law and the Constitution. He gives everyone, no matter how dirty, an opportunity to do the right thing (sometimes with warnings such as the phone call with the Georgia Secretary of State recently). He pushed cases through the courts, he presented evidence to the legislatures, and he even told the vice president to do the right thing. But with the betrayal by Pence and Congress, the treason is now complete and nobody can say that Trump did not allow the process to finish before acting. Second, in order to drain the swamp you have to know who are the swamp creatures. They can blend in very well with the crowds. But the false event in the capitol revealed the final traitors for who they were regardless of party affiliation. Trump flushed them out of hiding.
So, what comes next? I don’t have the particulars but I can give you milestones to watch for as the coming days unfold:
  1. Expect the emergency broadcast system to be activated. The FCC just recently released a memorandum speaking to the requirements under Federal law to send messages from the president to the public. See this link
  2. Expect confusion. We are in a battle for our republic against elites that are attempting the very coup that they are accusing Trump of doing. In battle, there will be disinformation but know that plans are being fulfilled.
  3. Expect high profile arrests to take place over the next 12 days and at any time. You may wake one morning to find someone in high office is no longer there.
  4. Expect this to be a bumpy ride to the very end. This is not a television show where things are resolved in 45 minutes.
  5. Expect more bombshell evidence to be released between now and Jan. 20th.
  6. Expect some sort of internet blackout or outage: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Gmail are likely going to be affected. If you don’t have alternate forms of communication established now, it would be a good idea to start forming them even if it’s just checking on your nextdoor neighbors.
  7. Expect Trump to be inaugurated on Jan 20th!
  8. Expect the executive order from 2018 and/or the Insurrection Act to be enacted. This DOES NOT mean martial law. Remember that we have been under a state of emergency since 2018 which gives the president many powers to act.

The next 12 days will be something to tell the grandchildren! It’s 1776 all over again!

Part II, Thomas McInerney,* retired 3-Star General was recorded at the White House. He says that some white hats (good guys) got Nancy Pelosi’s laptop during the breach of the Capitol on Wednesday. He says she’s frantic, and this is why she’s pushing to impeach Trump.

Wow. “The Vice President has committed treason.”


Link: https://www.bitchute.com/video/edKPo5DkAitM/

This refers to the Executive order 13848 — the one that was set up two years ago, to deal with the event of foreign interference in the US Election. He also mentions Hammer and Scorecard, the software and electronic equipment designed originally by the CIA to interfere in … foreign elections. But now in a case of bad karma, the decendants of which are being used to interfere in the US election.

 

Part III: there are several variations of claims about how the votes were being manipulated from Italy.

Better than a James Bond movie.

Big Tech Axes Parler. They are very afraid of Donald Trump and his supporters

What happened to the first amendment?

Parler will be tossed off Amazon at midnight US time tonight. Friday, Parler jumped to the #1 app in Apple’s app store. Saturday Apple tossed it off.

The Tech Giants run the country. They control the conversations of millions of people.

ZeroHedge:  Parler saw approximately 210,000 installs globally on Friday 1/8, up 281% from approximately 55,000 on 1/7, according to data from the analytics service Sensor Tower. “In the U.S., the app saw approximately 182,000 first-time downloads on 1/8, up 355% from about 40,000 installs on 1/7. Since Wednesday, the app has seen approximately 268,000 installs from across U.S. app stores,” a press rep from Sensor Tower wrote in an email. -TechCrunch

Parler promise to set up again by noon tomorrow

The defiant message from John Matze of Parler:

10:10 PM ET:   Sunday (tomorrow) at midnight Amazon will be shutting off all of our servers in an attempt to completely remove free speech off the internet.

We prepared for events like this by never relying on amazons proprietary infrastructure and building bare metal products.

…Amazon, Google and Apple purposefully did this as a coordinated effort knowing our options would be limited and knowing this would inflict the most damage right as President Trump was banned from the tech companies.

This is all unfolding within the last few hours.

This was a coordinated attack by the tech giants to kill competition in the market place. We were too successful too fast. You can expect the war on competition and free speech to continue, but don’t count us out.

We are the closest thing to competition Facebook or Twitter has seen in many years. I believe Amazon, Google, Apple worked together to try and ensure they don’t have competition.

They will NOT win! …

What they are doing is unprecedented, unfounded and absolutely disgusting. Shameful.

This is a battle against all of us. Liberals, conservatives, atheists, Christians, black, white, etc. They want to keep their monopoly over speech. They want us fighting. They don’t want us working together. They don’t want us working with each other, they want us hating one another.

Parley – brings two people with conflicting ideas together. Our mission is free speech, democracy and us the people having the power. The elite don’t want us to be free, they want hate division and power!

For us to win this fight we need everyone back on Parler Tuesday. By Monday at noon we will be fully operational again.

The  Chilling Effect of the Big Tech control

When Twitter cancelled The New York Post for the hottest two weeks in the lead up to the biggest political event in four years, the message to the media was clear. Play by our rules or it’s over for your social media accounts which they had become dependent on in a world where subscriptions and advertising were squeezed flat by the same Tech Giants who pirated content.

The purge happening now is naked, it’s a sign of strength but revealing this ominous power is also a mark of desperation. A no-holds-barred, gloves off Information War. The conglomerate that “won” control of the most powerful nation on Earth appear to be afraid that they might lose that in the next ten days. Otherwise, why the rush?

If Donald Trump was only supported by delusional extreme right fringe losers in Chewbacca bikinis with horned hats, they wouldn’t need to silence him.

When people ask “Why wouldn’t the media report a stolen election?”, point at the power of the Tech Giants

The power to exile the President of the Free World from the national conversation is enough on its own to explain the bizarre media blackout of the last two months. The failure of the normal media to even report the biggest political scandals most of our lifetimes.

More than anything, the conglomerate Democrat-Tech-Giant-CCP want to stop most of America from hearing what Donald Trump or his supporters say.

As I’ve said, we’re in an Information War, more than anything we need new lines of communication. Sign up to Gab, to MeWe, to anything outside the Tech Giants. Tune in and spread the message. Each time you phone a friend, send an email, support a site that shares messages, you are part of the solution.

What ever you do, don’t give in. That’s what they want you to do.
