From Canada this morning via my Alt Health Practitioner:
Massive cover-up and censorship of the fact that until mid-Nov of 2020 only 166 people have died of COVID-19 in Canada outside of long term care homes. Laura-Lynn broke the story and today her YouTube channel was just terminated.
The video was going viral. It is on her Bitchute channel and is called “CTV Silent Edits Covid Numbers Out of Newscast”
If you can’t load the video from Chrome, try Brave or other browser. Chrome is throttling the video.
Was it Nixon or one of his associates who said “it’s not the crime that gets you — it’s the cover-up”.
Why censor this – unless the Ruling Predator Class is desperately trying to hide something!! Which of course brings us to “what —- and why?”
Is that her video? Still on Youtube: https://youtu.be/WLGOvJVyU0M
Yes. I dont know a thing about how these things work, but I”m told this is a single item still on YT, but it’s her channel that’s been taken down.
Indeed,maybe it’s been removed only from Canadian viewers.
I’d guess removing this is another step, and will happen.
But I trust my source absolutely. I just dont understand anything about the “hows” of software, etc etc. :-)
“… I trust my source absolutely …”
Was it that infamous American impostor, Reagan, who said “trust but verify”…
Thanks Pam.

Thanks Pamela,
could you do with a laugh ? This made me laugh anyway – merry covid Xmas :

LOL. Oh thanks Sandy – and yes, I did need a laugh this morning, and especially as such a kind and thoughtful gesture.
Thank you. You lifted my spirits 100% :-)

With all due respect, Laura Lynn is doing herself no favours at all here. It took me roughly 5 minutes to completely refute the 166 deaths she is on about, simply by going directly into the official Covid-19 site.
The 166 deaths for all of Canada, not including care home deaths is bollacks as the below figures show. As of yesterday, there were 1487 deaths in this category just for Ontario alone!
Official deaths for Ontario alone up until Dec 5, 2020 were 3757…see link below…
https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data
Official deaths for residents in care homes up until the same date were 2270…see link below…
https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data/long-term-care-homes
And why am I not in the least bit surprised when I look at the original source for this dangerously misleading rubbish being promoted here on The Saker’s site!

Hi Col,
well while these numbers look impressive it once again deals with cases – not sure that’s very compelling. To make sense of the death numbers there would have to be comparison of previous years’ numbers. It does look bad that 8 staff have died over the year – but I don’t know how different that is – that may not be anomalous for Ontario. But I do agree your links paint a different picture.
People are dying that’s for sure. Mostly the old or already unwell, that is also for sure. Year on year death rates for every demographic may shed the most light ? It has never been my position that there is no disease, I object to the extreme impositions on everyone’s life – that make life not worth living – and will certainly cause illness and death for a long time to come. I’m all for sensible precautions.
I am in Aberdeen where my mother lives – I have been here most of the year – I can’t get home because of the lockdowns. I don’t know anyone who is ill. I don’t know anyone who knows anyone who has been ill. My mother has a carer who comes in – she works for a company that sends carers to help old people / or disabled people in their homes i.e. high risk. Each of these carers goes from house to house every day. None of her clients has been ill. None of her colleagues has been ill. None of her colleagues’ clients has been ill. Yet we’ve been under various levels of lockdown since March. I do know people who have lost their jobs. I do know people who are quite desperate and fearful – of the disease and for the future.
There was an analysis of year on year death rates posted here previously showing no real increase – for the US I think. As I have said before, I have no competence in this field – I just read what I can and pay attention / consider my own experience / ask people around me, and ask the question – does this make sense ?
Extraordinary life ruining impositions, whole sale removal of peoples’ rights, destruction of livelihoods and businesses should require extraordinary proof that these impositions are necessary – and are effective. I haven’t seen anything like that. See this link from Per/Norway : https://www.anti-empire.com/belgian-health-ministry-says-shut-down-shops-as-a-psychological-shock-tactic/
it describes how the shut down was simply used as a ” psychological shock tactic “. There’s also the admission that ” shopping doesn’t really involve any risk “.
There are both preventive measures ( Amarynth has posted about them ), and effective treatments – from the beginning Didier Raoult had successfully used Hydroxychloroquine + an antibiotic which worked if used early. Cue trials on HXC – designed to fail – so that treatment wouldn’t be used ( and the vaccine bonanza could commence ? ) Why would a drug that has been safely used for decades suddenly be branded too dangerous to use ? The Lancet withdrew the studies, but the damage was done. How many people could have been saved by Raoult’s protocol ?
There is also another protocol reported on Paul Craig Roberts’ site : https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2020/11/23/effective-treatment-and-prevention-is-available-for-covid-19/ ( The link includes a letter from a virologist casting doubt on the efficacy of the various vaccines. )
There is no word of these protocols in the media – just a campaign of fear and escalating threats.
People who would design trials to fail to prevent the use of a viable cure are hardly to be trusted. Many of the measures imposed are nonsensical and contradictory. Old people have been locked in care homes – effectively imprisoned – kept indoors with lots of other old people with mask wearing staff, denied visits from family and told to use screen time instead. Living like that would make anybody yearn for death ! Good grief – yes – YCHMTSU.
So Col, for what it’s worth, that’s my thinking, I’m sorry to write at length.
All the best,
Sand.
I applaud you post SandinEd. Your sincerity and honest ring throughout.
And please, never doubt that you are a very valuable source of information. Your views are not skewed by any agenda, nor by any previous training or exposure to any particular field of information.
You are one of the most important sources of information there is: an intelligent, open minded person, with both eyes open and a mind open to Common Sense, who reports what she sees without fear or favour.
And that is very valuable indeed.
Pamela,
thanks for such kind words – I’m thrilled to be described as honest and sincere – I can’t think of a better compliment.
All good Sandy…no apologies needed…just a very friendly word of warning to you though…”Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.”
All the best from the Antipodes
Col
PS Remember too… I see many things upside down!
Dear Sandra,if you have been in the Scottish Health Service you know the difference between a life threatening disease and some poor wean that landed in some bullshit.
Hi Col,
Here are some ‘reliable’ numbers.
And to quote from the article:” As noted above, the NIA indicated that to date, 12% of COVID-19 cases and 75% of all COVID-19 deaths in Canada have been in LTC facilities, affecting both residents and staff. NIA’s summary also revealed that 87% of all COVID-19 cases within LTC facilities in Canada, and 93% of deaths, were in Ontario and Quebec. “

Thanks, NoNickYet
Your figures also highlight the absolute nonsense that Laura Lynn is busy quoting.
Current deaths in Canada are around 12,000.
25% of this figure would be 3000.
This means her figures are out by something in the region of 1800%!

Just in on my FB – I make no comment.
https://image-cdn.parler.com/k/E/kEowCd15H6.jpeg
It appears from a Canadian stats site that the overall nation wide death rate stats for Canada have been unchanged within SD, over the last 3 yrs.
Yes the data is just rubbish.
Looking at Canadian EXCESS death figures comparing 2020 with the previous 5 years we see possibly significant but still low excess deaths in March but a very sharp peak in April where there were 3727 excess deaths in 2030. May was still high-no time to count but somewhere in the 2500 range. June and July and most of August were very close to average ie deaths were from usual causes, heart, cancer accidents etc.
No data is available past August but worldometer data suggests that September and October remained low but November COVID deaths close to the May figure.
I doubt many of the denizens of this site will know how (or be willing) to use this data0 but you at least i think will love this link.

“Grants
Our World in Data is supported by grants from the Department of Health and Social Care in the United Kingdom, a grant from the German entrepreneur, businesswoman and philanthropist Susanne Klatten, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.”
In Pamela’s first post, it reads, 166 ‘deaths’ occured outside ‘Long Term Care Facilities’………………………..what’s to refute……….no one lied………..the majority of deaths in Canada (12 thousand odd) are in LTC facilities………..no dead babies, no dead toddlers, no dead kids of any age, one death reported for someone under 45 (comorbid), and the few deaths of those between 45 and 60, they too had co morbids. Kids can go to school with teachers, as they find there is little to no vector there, but, but, but…………….one cannot gather in one’s car and park a social distance from the next car and attend a Church service………covid madness 101.
Not saying there is no covid, people are just pointing out the ‘numbers’ don’t fly for a world wide panic lock down especially when ‘politicians are playing doctor’ and doctors are cowered into silence for political expidiency. CDS is similar to TDS, the affects are so far ranging, where rational people in a government induced state of fear and panic forget how to apply common sence.

“covid madness 101”
In reality, it is the opposite of madness 101 – it is Plandemic 201: https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/scenario.html
Sean…you asked…”Whats to refute”…
Well, how about the fact that the 166 figure is a gross misrepresentation of the figures …something in the region of an 1800% misrepresentation actually!
Just me, but I don’t like to see rubbish like this being parroted here.Removed. This is an open discussion space – rules need to be followed. Mod.

The last table I saw, a few hours ago, is from the Statistics Canada site. It shows overall deaths – from all caused, just total deaths – over the last 5 yrs in Canada, broken down month by month.
And a bold type total at the bottom of each column year. From 2016 – 2020 there is no statistically significant difference. There are 2 months in 2020 and 2016 which were higher, but they reverted to standard the following month.
Thus there seems to be no effect of anything different or threatening upon health on Canada, yet one Province is threatening restrictions of liberty on those who refuse the “voluntary” vaccine!!!

Volunteer day 2020: history and traditions of the holiday
Volunteer day 2020 can be considered a holiday for everyone who helps society without compensation, sparing no effort and time. We tell you about the history and traditions of this day
When is volunteer Day celebrated
Volunteer day 2020 in Russia, or, as it is also called, international volunteer day, is celebrated on December 5. This holiday aims to draw public attention to such an important cause as volunteerism — free assistance for the benefit of society.
History
The history of its appearance goes back to 1985, when the UN Assembly put forward a proposal to hold a socially significant holiday for the whole world – volunteer Day. These people make a huge contribution to all spheres of public life, which should not go unnoticed.
The holiday has an international status and is successfully celebrated in many countries.
Russia joined the celebration of volunteer Day in 2017. To date, there are many organizations, joining which you can engage in one or another type of activity as a full-time employee, or in your free time, on a one-time or permanent basis. The main thing is to have a desire to help people, without expecting anything in return.
Traditions
Volunteer day 2020 is accompanied by mass events, flash mobs, and competitions in support of creative people who want to develop and benefit humanity. Charity concerts and festive evenings are always organized. On this day, everyone strives to do a good deed, help their neighbor, perform a heroic deed, which is what volunteers do throughout their lives.
How to become a volunteer
1. To begin, decide in what field of activity you want to help. Whether it’s different directions or one thing at a time. Helping the elderly, or working in an animal shelter. Or maybe you are planning to go to another city for the duration of a large-scale event. In any case, it is better to decide on this in advance.
2. Choose a volunteer movement and submit an application. Each direction has its own volunteer organization. The largest ones can apply online. Be prepared for the fact that you may not be accepted. The candidate must have strong health, stamina, and a stable mind.
3. Decide how much time you can devote to volunteering. You must be realistic about your strengths. Especially if the volunteer activity is combined with the main work. Determine how many hours a day or week you can spend on this task.
4. Complete the necessary training. Before you start working, you may receive a short briefing, but in some areas you will need to complete full training.
Volunteer organizations in Russia
1. “Doctors for children” is a volunteer school that provides real assistance to children living on the street, children from difficult families, those who are HIV-positive and have special developmental needs.
2. Nochlezhka Charitable society fights for reducing homelessness and improving the quality of life of people left without housing.
3. Children’s hospices. The number of children staying in hospices is growing every year, so help is always needed in such places.
4. “Red cross”. Anyone can become a volunteer of this charity organization. They help people who have fallen into a difficult life situation. You can become a donor, make a donation, or help orphaned children. Any help will be considered necessary and important.

There are many who post anonymously, so I’m not sure why you are criticising me.
It seems that, in spite of many suggestions that anonymous posts be stopped, Saker is happy for them to continue, and as it’s his site, I think we can accept his word.
Can this discussion be closed. People are allowed to post anonymously if they so wish. Mod.

The Latvian Nazi scum are at it again. This time, they are openly hunting, incarcerating, persecuting and oppressing the remaining Russian population, especially journalists and public voices.

A wave of persecution of Russians began in Latvia: searches and arrests are underway
03.12.2020 – 20:23 (Google translate):
A wave of persecution of Russians began in Latvia: searches and arrests are underway | Russian spring
Today in Latvia, special services broke into searches the homes of Russian-speaking journalists and researchers of the crimes of the Baltic Nazis who served Hitler during the Great Patriotic War. “A common motive: the eradication of Russian-language journalism and the inconvenient topic of researching the Holocaust in Latvia,” wrote journalist Alexander Medinsky.
Employees of the State Security Service (SGB) of Latvia are conducting a search of the former editor of the portal Baltnews.lv, Andrei Yakovlev, said journalist, editor-in-chief of the IMHOClub portal Yuri Alekseev. Also in the morning the publicist Vladimir Linderman was searched, now he is under interrogation, journalist Alla Berezovskaya said.
Enough excuses, snarky retorts by Zakharova, passive-aggressive tweets by Pushkov or shameful silence. By failing to protect fellow Russians from the Nazi boot, you are projecting weakness, corruption and lack of will to defend the Russian (and Slav) civilisational space from the yapping cerberuses of the Nazi Reich. Show the scum that you mean business for once and that Russian lives are at least as valuable as those of the Euro Reich’s minions. Do not let your fellow Russians end up like the leaders of the Donbas – eliminated in cold blood while you sat on your… haunches.
I am convinced that for all the zombification by the West there are younger Russians who will not allow such disgusting behaviour to carry on forever.
Nazism, whole blown Fascism, never went away.
It was welcomed to migrate to America as a post war refugee, where it found a highly nutritious soils, and grew to be a really big action, and now it’s gone back to Europe to find it’s roots.
It’s visited in Ukraine, and having left a few seeds and now it’s moving around the place. France has had a quick flying visit but a longer one is planned, and Germany is on the list there, somewhere.
But currently the Baltic nations are being very welcoming, and it’s decided a stay a while and share.
Perhaps this time Russia will kill it off for good.

The history of Russian politics with Nazism is very complex, and this news that you relate is surely connected to its background. I can’t provide links, the whole period of the rise of Hitler, WW!! and the Stalin era are subject to controversy, misunderstanding through the interests of western powers., and I have no interest to fight a lost corner of resistance to their propaganda. Part of the complexity and controversy may also concern Stalin, and his later apparent, motivation interests towards Germany, as referred to here with links recently..
The report from the anonymous above on the speech by Putin regarding volunteers across Russia to the virus, this is very positive, who knows how young people in Russia will be able to make a difference.
Which links would those be?
Dear both,
In my simplistic universe, there is no room for shades of gray. If you manage to kill 40+ million people on racial/religious grounds in a few years, poison the entire continent with the virus of racism and nazism and continue attacking Russia in another attempt to secure a 1000-year Reich, you are a beast of Satan, forever marked, forever cursed and unworthy of life.
Stalin was too soft. The British and the French were insisting on dismantling “German nation” forever and Stalin said – Hitler has gone and Germany remains. Only now is it becoming clear how wrong and remiss he was.
You do remind me of a conversation I had, a long time ago now, around 1970’s, with a young German emigrant to Australia I met. I asked him – as immigrants often tend to “why did you leave Germany {i.e.home} to come here” and here said
Because of the tension there. The constant checking by police. Because I have 2 kids and I dont want them there when “it” happens again. I said, But surely, Germany is past that, Fascism was halted, Germany is a different country now??.
And he said “No, the type of people, the basic beliefs, they are still there. And it will happen again”.
Doesn’t make him right, of course. It was interesting food for thought for me, and I thought the years had shown him to be wrong. But then again, perhaps not.
The slow withdrawal and implosion of the United States and the refusal of the British to participate in the Euro Reich project have left Germany in its traditional role of the European hegemon. It didn’t take a month for the German politicians to start viciously attacking Russia, undermining Byelorussia, weaponising their Baltic assassins and creating a permanent source of instability vis-a-vis Russia using the scumbag Navalny. All of this less than a 100 years after the greatest genocide in modern history.
The only acceptable Germany was the German Democratic Republic. Everything else is a cancer. Hitler doesn’t matter. Before Hitler there was Wilhelm. After Hitler there is German Europe Union. Its forces are currently positioned 300 miles away from Moscow – think August 1941.
Despite the supine attitude of many Russian politicians towards their arch enemy, I am convinced that this latest (and last) attempt to expand the crusading Reich to the East will mean the end of Germany in its current form. I strongly advise the Russians to start fielding plans for dismantling the EU and then Germany.
Anubis there seems to be four fundamental misunderstandings here
1. Its the City of London, a 1 sq. mile of bankster HQs that runs British Commonwealth ‘colonies’, the US (Wall St being a branch office) & the EU (a banksters cartel – France and Germany having surrendered their monetary sovereignty (i.e. ability to issue their own currency) when they adopted the €
2. There is nothing democratic about the EU. Reflect on the no. of times EU nations have been called on to vote for EU treaties – and when they voted ‘No!’ the vote was either ignored – or the nation was forced to vote again
3. The City of London (and Chatham House – the thinktank which determines UK and hence globalist foreign policy) has historically been terrified of a union between German capital and technology OTOH and Russian resources and manpower OTO. Witness the causes of WWI as well as how Roman Catholic Poland was ‘played for fools’ by being coerced by the British and French to decline every offer made by Hitler to entice NSDAP Germany into WWII (which bait he foolishly took)
********
Even today we see this in the threat of sanctions against Nordtream2 (and thats after the UK-US’s success in getting Sudstream canceled)
4. With ~40 US military installations on German soil, Germany can be referred to as a captive nation
Observing the long arc of history, your anger/frustration/hatred of Germany is misplaced – it really is Perfidious Albion (aka England – not the rest of the UK: Ireland, Scotland & Wales) and the Jesuits (aka Soldiers of God) in the Vatican (which is as much a geopolitical player as ‘the City’, Wall St, the Pentagon) that you could be directing your vitriol at
None of the above is to be construed as condoning the decisions/actions of the NSDAP bureaucracy/officers taken against neighboring nations incl. the former USSR

Very good observing and correct…..
https://sptnkne.ws/E9yb
@Tyson B
Nearly took the words out of my mouth. I couldn’t have said it any better myself. And by that, I mean some of the points you made were what I’ve been saying in the previous MFC.
There seems to me to be the same “pathological” traits not only in Heiko Maas…but Mark Rutte from Netherlands too…..two sides of the same coin?
Bingo! Yes, Holland saved Kaiser Willy from his subjects and soon afterwards became the greatest producer of nazi volontaries for the Reich’s occupation and mass murder army /SS in WW2. NL’s royals were being “aufgenordet” by two generations of SS stallions to make sure that Holland would be true to Nazism forever with this result among others:
When in 1992 on the eve of the London conference on YU I wrote a letter (an illusion of that time: “in a democracy every voice is heard and can be decisive…”) to England’s forn minister, Hurd, proposing the creation of a tribunal for the new, third wave of germ war crimes in YU (after those of WW1, documented by R.A.Reiss, and those of WW2, not yet doc’d and punished on Mr. Reemtsma who tried to expose them)… on the first day of the conference the germ forn min Kinkel, earlier head of the SS follow up institution BND, declared that *he* had just had the bright idea of inventing a UN tribunal about the war crimes of the Serbs against everybody else. This proposal was accepted, and then Holland continued by murdering Sloba Milosevic in that jail, declaring – how bloody original! – that the victim had done it himself. In 2009 I had suffered enough from the renazification regime of Angela Hitler and wrote her a long letter, where, among other topics, I predicted that since germ politics seemed to follow a 25 years rhythm of starting WWs, she should already prepare for doing it again in summer 2014 and improve on the 1939-WW by starting it nearer to Moscow. She and/or her EU friends then organised the MH17 “case” which took place exactly on her 60th birthday, i.e. as a birthday present, offered by nazis to that nazi “queen of Europe” according to the English press.
NaziLand NL participated 1. in inventing that case by stuffing the plane-to-be-shot-down with chemically stinking corpses, and 2nd by preparing a task force of 2000 elite NLnazi soldiers under the command of the nazi Baby Kong himself, ready for storming Moscow after an airlift to UA and then a spaziergang to the north where Putin and his evil ones were known to hide in a swamp landscape which would pose no problem to NL’s swampologists. NL’s 3rd installment for this glorious IIIrd WW is running now: the Nazireich of BabyKong has decided that the destruction of MH17 planned and prepared for that holy Moerkl fetish day and Moerkl fetish time was then ordered by EvilPutin (!) and executed by 4 Russki military men who will be convicted and punished by NL’s eternal Nazi Court in case they are not able to prove to this court that they are innocent. The bright idea that from now on the difficult proof-work has to be done by the accused may be world shaking, and is again to be attributed to Holland’s noble fuehrer from Nazland Germland.
Perhaps I am a tad too unfriendly towards NL because the other “northern”, “germanic” monarschies are not much better. NATO gensex are almost always from there, producing NATO wars everywhere.. Sorry, this was meant to become a 2liner…

@ bp
Well, unlike in both world wars, the Netherlands, Britain and Germany are nowadays occupied by the US. Some say that Germany doesn’t even have the power that it used to have. Even without the involvement of the US/NATO, would the violent breakup of Yugoslavia have happened as it did? (If I’m not mistaken, Britain was part of it too)
Which side of the border was that – West (FRG) or East (GDR)?
My question was in response to Pamela’s. Sorry.
If your comment was addressed to my joey_n, it was the West.
I also once talked a few times to an editor, to whom I submitted articles, who had been in US Army Intelligence, who said “watch Germany. No matter what any else is doing – watch Germany”.
@Anonymous (2020-12-05 22.45)
It was about Pamela’s anecdote. I probably wouldn’t have been surprised that what the German emigré described was on the NATO-occupied West Germany.
I’ve been informed here and elsewhere that Germany is occupied by the USA/NATO and is a host to USian military bases, and therefore does not have an independent foreign policy. If I’m getting this correct, they are already being watched. Am I missing something?
I also can’t make out what his ‘No matter what any else is doing’ is supposed to imply; unless I’m misinterpreting it, I’m pretty sure that what Germany is doing shouldn’t distract us from the actions of another national entity (e.g. the Five Eyes).
Interesting, how Russian and German politics spark varying thoughts and opinions.
There are essential facets lacking for me in the comments above. Does this lack reflect decades of anti Russian propaganda, the burning of libraries of books, the tyranny of censorship within the country, basically unto the end of the Soviet era ? It’s a question only.
As to how Russia responds now to the situation in Latvia, please keep the updates coming.
I also mentioned the positive aspect of the youth volunteers in relation to the pandemic, hopefully change will grow, from the inside, a very wonderful prospect.
In the 1970s there was a Big Bad Wall stopping GDRians from visiting AUS… Some had passports&visa, but their thinking and reasoning would have been different or very different…

Hi Pamela
I too have had conversations with Germans in Oz who say similar things.
My husband and his family, lived under Stalin and then Hitler, then in displaced person camps under British occupation of post war Germany, and in Oz. Lots of stories to be told, which I have written down!
Don’t know if you have seen this video from 2014… When German Wolf and Russian Bear get together – the world will turn over.
“Russian and German people have lots in common. They are similar in their spirit, their values, their views of life. Unfortunately in the past they’ve been divided and forced into confrontation. They’ve been set apart and made enemy. Fortunately with the beginning of a new era the two great nations have a chance to unite and change the world for the better. The global awakening helps people to realise that the humanity has one common enemies – The Dark Directors, who organise all the wars and revolutions in the world, but always stay behind the scene.

Neither of these great nations is weak intellectually or waiting to be prodded by the evil English in order to lose most of its biological and industrial capital. There are no dark directors – I am wondering if this is all an attempt to give the Germans a suitable cover for their last invasion. I have nothing but deep respect for your opinions but this kind of whitewashing unspeakable German crimes and the current Euro Reich are in my view treasonous from the perspective of the Russian state.
The Germans have a clear choice – dismantle the EU (like the USSR did so generously with itself) and start acting like a normal state. Othewise, you shall be no more.
These constant accusations against the Britsh/Jews/Freemasons etc. are the modus operandi of the German and Austro-Hungarian secret services. It was the dark cabal that “prodded” the Serbs to kill the autocrat in Sarajevo. Let me disappoint you:
Like their German descendants, the then Austrians (and Germans) had been planning a comprehensive destruction of Russia and the planting of Roman Catholicism within its borders. They are doing the same today. Look at German placards in Minsk.
The young Slavs were not puppets but highly idealistic and motivated freedom fighters. They will live forever – as will those of us who engage the enemy this time.
Some of us are ready. Let’s hope those who matter are ready too.
Unfortunately the Soviets did not purge the scum, well hopefully the same mistake won’t be made again.
https://www.rt.com/russia/508625-russia-new-start-concessions-us-demands/
The heading to the article in RT tells us all the story: ‘Running out of time’: US adds new demands as Russia makes concessions to save last remaining nuclear deterrent deal – envoy
All we can ask is “what’s new?”. But for me it tells a bigger, deeper and more depressing story — and maybe even is a “straw in the wind”, showing the likely way forward.
It isn’t just a case of “how much, Really and truly, does the US want to negotiate arms control for peace; for the sake of the whole of this beautiful world we have been given, to live, love and enjoy; to ensure its continuation??”
The answer is, Clearly, not at all.
But it’s more, for it shows the mind-set of the Parasite Class in total control, the systems they not only set in place but are themselves driven by, and from that we can see an almost unavoidable future.
The only reason they would refuse this incredibly generous, balanced, reasoned, and well intentioned offer by Russia is because of the mind-set they share. This can summarised as the typical response of the teenage, bloated, self inflated bully lout as in “ “we got ’em. We’re better, stronger, we are The Best, and the Ruskies know it; they know they’re just a lot of damned half-breeds – Slavs. They know we rule, and now they’re scared, we’ve called their bluff because we’re so good, and now they’re begging. And now we tell them what they will do – and it’s what suits us”.
That is, they have no understanding, maturity, subtlety, and worse of all, not one iota of understanding of the Russian mind.
They are in power because of the systems that were put into place in America from it’s inception. These are systems formulated by the powerful and wealthy who first had control. and consequently have always favoured their own kind. They are systems which encourage deep corruption, which has entrenched these systems of Worship of Mamon, and with him, his twin brother Mars and War. These systems favour those with only one driving force, the Will to Thanatos, the will to grasp and hold everything at any cost NOT to them.
These systems have ineluctable led us to where we are now, which is that there are Predators in Power who want war, will have war, and have no fear of wars consequences on themselves for they believe themselves untouchable. Years of raining down bombs, death and destruction of their chosen Will to Thanatos, while sheltering behind a massive military and 5000 miles of open ocean from both sides, have helped enormously to feed and grow this mindset and it’s systems.
Now we clearly have a people who think they can take on Russia and win; they can march once again down Red Square – if they choose to leave it standing – as did in 1991, and celebrate that they are victorious over the hated “Igor”; they can have all that vast natural wealth – for nothing.
And when President Putin, announcing the new innovative missiles and unmanned nuclear submarines Russia now has, said “When we warned before, no one wanted to listen. Well,,, listen to us now” !! they just stopped their ears and minds. They wont listen to anyone who tells them what they dont want to know.
Somehow, to me, this action by the Predators of Empire, the Empire of Pirates it has always been, have taken a step down a one way road, leading to no-where but desolation, and catastrophe.
No longer if — now it’s “when”. Unless — it’s slim hope, but maybe if enough nations of the world can see this and realise that they must all come together to stop this Arch Terrorist – just maybe, we have a future we can wish for all our children.
Very Interesting debate with many truths for truth-seeker’s
On the announcement of the UK COVID vaccine James Delingpole states, “I’m not celebrating at all, this is just a propaganda move by the government to support their ludicrous lockdown policy”.
He says that, “If there is any justice in the world and you care about democracy, the future of the republic, then the American system has to find in Trump’s favour or it will be Armageddon”.

Thanks azra, this has been recommended to me before, I’ve yet to see it. Roma ( gypsies ), have lived side by side with Macedonians for centuries in Macedonia. You are one of the few that will understand how Macedonians feel today.
Here’s a HD trailer of my favourite film by award winning Macedonian director, Milčo Mančevski; “Dust”; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfqVJlNl5z4 From the blurb… “A New York thief, a tough as nails 100 year old woman, two brothers from the Wild West, a revolutionary hell-bent on liberating Macedonia from the Ottoman Empire and a beautiful pregnant woman, all cross paths in a tale that spans two continents and three centuries, its fractured narrative resembling a Cubist painting.”
An inspired film featuring wonderful turns by both Australian actor David Wenham, and Jospeh Fiennes as the brothers.
And a song for you azra; Dragan Dautovski; Mesečina ( Moon ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwOLajttAXQ
Featuring a wonderful melody + harmony, driving rhythm and also improvisation ( scat singing from the beautiful
Aleksandra Popova ).
Thank you dear Dimitar.
In this now-world of induced madness on all levels, when I played @Mesecina’ a wonderful thing happened.
All my 5 indoor orphaned cats woke from their luscious afternoon sleep and gathered around the speakers, and listened to Mesecina with me.
They purred and enjoyed and I played the song many times for us…( s’cat’ singing hmmmmm).
I will watch the movie later in the night…
Thank you
Lol, what a wonderful story re: your cats, thank you so much for sharing it with me! Unfortunately, it’s only a trailer, the movie I doubt is available on youtube for free. Blessings, D.

I overlooked this one, usually the music here is not so much in my focus, but the reference to your cats made me curious and I can attest that their taste is superbly developed, please give them a hug on my part !

In a time of confusion for so many; of worrying, depressing times, making us angry and uncertain of where to go, there is one man [among many I”m sure, just that he has made his life available to us ] who has sorted out his own philosophy of living, which comes from his certainty of who he is.
Today, with a small “trailer” for his second YT channel, he has posted up his own philosophy and I thought many cafe-istas might find it interesting, and even inspiring. {Mods:, I have directly copy/pasted, and Shawn wrote it in Capitals. Can you forgive, therefor – he isn’t shouting (indeed I suspect he has never raised his voice to anyone ever in his entire life :-) )}
So, from Shawn James, Canadian Backwoodsman:
“Self reliance _ The ability to depend on yourself and your own abilities.
STRIVE FOR MORE SELF RELIANCE – A SELF RELIANT LIFE IS MORE MEANINGFUL THAN a LIFE OF CONFORMITY.
LIVE AN UNCONVENTIONAL LIFE – THERE IS MORE TO LIFE WHEN YOU CLIMB OUT OF THE BOX THAT SOCIETY PUTS YOU IN.
DISCOVER YOUR MEANING, YOUR TRUE PASSION, THEN DESIGN YOUR DREAM LIFE AND PURSUE IT RELENTLESSLY.
CONTINUOUSLY EVALUATE YOUR LIFE, THE PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS WITHIN IT, AND WHEN YOU DISCOVER THAT WHICH DOES NOT FIT YOUR ETHOS, REDUCE IT OR ELIMINATE IT FROM YOUR LIFE
BE YOUR OWN BOSS, STEER YOUR OWN BOAT, STAY IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT
BE KIND, BUT DO NOT BE WEAK
DO NOT LIE TO YOURSELF. INSTEAD OF REPEATEDLY MAKING BAD CHOICES, REACH DEEP WITHIN YOUR MIND AND LISTEN TO THE TRUTH THAT LIES THERE, CHOOSE THEN WHAT MAKES YOUR LIFE BETTER RATHER THAN REPEATING THE SAME MISTAKES THAT YOU KNOW ARE WRONG
BE YOUR OWN PERSON. THINK YOUR OWN THOUGHTS. CONDUCT YOUR OWN TRUE ACTIONS. MAKE MISTAKES. CREATE MASTERPIECES. TAKE RISKS. OWN YOUR FAILURES. OWN YOUR SUCCESSES
SELF-RELIANCE IS NOT SELFISH, IT IS UNSELFISH. YOUR SELF-SUFFICIENCY FREES OTHERS FROM THE NEED TO HELP YOU, ALLOWING THEM TO HELP THEMSELVES AND OTHERS.
USE THE POWER OF YOUR SELF-RELIANCE AND INDEPENDENCE TO HELP OTHERS. ”

Found this article on StalkerZone:
https://www.stalkerzone.org/europe-will-soon-feel-an-acute-gas-shortage-the-process-of-transferring-gas-to-china-has-begun/
Original Russian version, by ‘Kot Znayet’:
https://zen.yandex.ru/media/id/5cb9e3053ee20600b4598ec8/evropa-uje-skoro-pochuvstvuet-na-sebe-ostryi-deficit-gaza-nachalsia-proces-perebroski-gaza-v-kitai-5fbf330ed81aaf181bf91e1b
Part of me wonders why civilians of individual European countries – including business owners – ‘deserve’ to suffer from the consequences of the actions of unelected (EU) politicians – many of whom are servile to, if not hand-picked/puppeteered by, the USA. If anything, it indirectly demonstrates how much of a farce ‘democracy’ is in the West and how little said politicians really care about the civilians they ostensibly represent.
Another part wonders how much profit Russia will generate in China compared to Europe, adjusting not only for population differences but also for climate (much of China is further down south than Europe, even touching the Tropic of Cancer), along with what potential advantages Russian gas has over whatever is currently being used in China.
There’s also a passing mention of an announcement that NordStream II would be the final Europe-Russia collaboration project; I must’ve missed that one.
As unfortunate as the news is (especially the implications of the last bit), it nevertheless raises a question: during all those years without Nord Stream, aside from the purchase of exorbitantly expensive USian gas, how did Europe manage to survive the cold winter months without Russian gas?
Gas deliveries to Europe from ussr have been going on for decades using soviet ukraine as transit. It was a source of dollars for ussr.
There were stories that Reagan relied on Soviet stealing of us software, which was embedded with bugs, to blow up gas turbines. Turbines ran out of control and exploded.
It was the first version of Stuxnet.
Wish I had sources. Iirc it was a joint us Canadian effort.
I just looked up ‘Stuxnet’ on DuckDuckGo. Wikipedia claims that Suxnet was in development since 2005 and was unlocked in 2010, while Reagan kicked the bucket in 2004. I’m not sure how these go together.
Iirc, ussr was stealing us software and adapting it to run compressor turbines. US modified the software so turbines would run out of control and self distruct, in the same manner as Iran’s centrifuges with stuxnet . This was during Gorbachev’s time.
Did a little digging
It was 1982
If you search : Soviet pipeline explosion , you can get some Info.
Fake, it’s being presented that western agencies had nothing to do with it.
The CIA, back in the day, 90’s maybe, openly admitted in a documentry to selling Russia faulty Pressure Relief Valves. The PRVs were calibrated to read a ‘low’ safe pressure, when the valves were running excedingly overpressure. The resulting explosion was so big, the US military command seen it from space and contacted the Russian’s asking if they had just had a nuclear accident. That happened sometime in the eighties if memory serves.

29. Voodoo Chile
I was sure I had heard something…
I went back to listening to
“Voodoo Chile” on Electric Ladyland.
” I’m going to make light to you
And love knows you ain’t felt no pain
Cause I’m a million miles away
And at the same time
I’m right here in your picture frame.”
Now what’d I say?”
You said “Light!”
I did hear something.
30. A Fan
Light! Suddenly I could see!
I was joyous! I told people:
“Hey, Jimi is deep!
Listen to this song!”
“Oh yeah, cool man”
But they didn’t seem to get it.
31. Time Rolls On
Time kept rolling. I watched
The rockers and stars sing songs
To each other and bask
In glory and debauchery.
It began to dawn on me
That Jimi was physically dead.
32. A Crack
One day I broke down and wept.
Exiled from home, broken marriage,
And now this! I felt like
I had lost a friend I never knew;
Strangest thing ever, never wept
Before or after like that.
Something wasn’t quite right.
A crack was developing in my world.
33. Slipping
The crack got wider.
I started slipping, trying
To remain upright but
The slope let go,
Sweeping me down
To the bottom.
That’s how I came to
Fall into the pit.

Hi Sandra
At the end of the previous Café you asked a very important question to which I offer my 2 cents worth.
Ellen Brown in my view is iconic in her work in studying different banking models. She has long provided the answers as to how the US could save itself from complete financial and social ruin.
Obviously, like a few other brave warriors she has to keep her head down somewhat when it comes to openly challenging the FED CB ownership model… simply to avoid being JFK’d.
This is the reason why people like her and the PCR’s of this world vary rarely broach this subject…it is simply a survival mechanism.
There are three different issues here, central banking ownership, investment Banking and Transactional banking… although the second and third have largely merged into one single item in the US since Slick Willy’s stewardship and the Glass Steagall repeal where the second two were merged…which encouraged even more financial chicanery and thieving to develop.
The Postal Banking Act referred to in your excellent link below is a very promising initiative that could dis-enfranchise the private banksters and once again separate investment and every day transactional banking.
If local Cooperative Banks could also be encouraged this could completely reinvent everyday banking services for Mainstreet and introduce some of the desperately needed moral hazard disciplines into the industry once again.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/why-fed-needs-public-banks/5731246
…I will quote this enormously important paragraph from this link…
“Private banks are not following through on the Fed’s attempted money injections, but publicly-owned banks would. In countries with strong government-owned banking systems, public banks have historically increased their lending when private banks pulled back.
Public banks have a mandate to stimulate their local economies; and unlike private banks, they can do it and still turn a profit, because they have lower costs. They have eliminated the parasitic profit-extracting middlemen, and they do not have to focus on short-term profits to please their shareholders. They can pour their resources into improving the long-term prospects of the economy and its infrastructure, stimulating local productivity and strengthening the tax base.”
…unquote…
This whole subject was never more relevant than it is today when we witness the US heading into such complete dysfunctional paralysis in its judicial, executive and administrative abilities…so much so, that it seems it can no longer even handle an election or its aftermath.
And could you really expect anything other than this situation, knowing that the whole banking system is unconstitutional and rotten to the core? How could the situation be any different when it is so fundamentally in support of such rampant cronyism and neofeudalism. This is the most obscene example of a plutocracy run amuck that humanity has ever witnessed.
And by extension how could a system like this ever offer up to Mainstreet anything other than dreadfully inept or corrupt candidates. The next four years, perhaps eight or more, is pretty predictable…the absolutely tedious and never-ending circular argument will continue unabated as to who really should have won…quite frankly neither of these imbeciles should have won… simply because they are the product of an absurdly dysfunctional political and financial system.
In fac,t the whole system is so utterly farcical now it simply can’t be described as capitalism in any shape or form any longer. The creature [From Jekyll Island] has morphed into something even its creators couldn’t possibly have imagined in their most depraved dreams…a perverse form of Reverse Socialism that robs from the poor and feeds the already obscenely wealthy. This is very much now a case of Robin Hood [read Robbing] in reverse.
This perpetual argument does serve one very important service for the Deep State though…it fosters their biggest asset… aggressive and out of control partisanship, plus as a corollary an utterly misplaced belief that the individual can actually have a say.
Whilst all of this goes on it completely diverts attention from a banking system that was expressly created to achieve this crazed example of neofeudalism on steroids.
In my view, all of these bills HR 8721, The Postal Banking Act, and HR 6422 have extraordinary possibilities but I fail to see how they can possibly be starters under the present FED CB private ownership model. Please explain the mechanics of how this could work to me…anyone…I’m all ears???
Also in the link is the very important comment…
“Congress has charged the Federal Reserve with a dual mandate: to maintain the stability of the currency (prevent inflation or deflation) and maintain full employment.“
This so-called dual mandate [treble mandates…A/B/C… if you view stable prices and moderate long term interest rates as separate…which I do] is farcical. As far as I can ascertain they operate without any mandate whatsoever..
A Maximum employment…it is completely nonsensical to claim this mandate is followed since the unemployment figures are so completely misrepresented…and are usually understated by at least double digits.
B STABLE PRICES…bollacks too…how can this be even contemplated as being adhered to when real inflation and prices for Mainstreet for a so-called basket of goods or everyday necessities is rampant
C MODERATE LONG TERM INTERST RATES…it is absurd to try to put this up as a serious mandate when MMP and the ‘money is for nothing’ [and the chicks are free] monetary lunacy is in full swing…it is a product of the shocking problem that they themselves create
And just to add the icing to this turd cake remember that the FED hasn’t been audited since 1953 [easy one for me to remember…the year before I was born].
So what can they get away with in an absence of meaningful mandates, 100% private Bankster ownership, and no audit for 67 years…well, how about anything they damn well like!

PS Thank you so much for posting this link, Sandy…I would otherwise have missed it and it is the singularly most important piece I have seen on US banking to date this year.
I had a reply prepared yesterday but life interfered and I have no idea where I wrote it down. Given the realistic and logical feedback here from Col, I still have that nagging feeling that we are in a debt system, so perhaps this is ’cause I have not thought it through, I cannot see that local banks, people’s banks, cooperative banks can make a huge difference, yet, they make a difference in how they employ their investments. If this is used locally, it is better than nothing of course, but it is hard to figure how to get out of the debt model, even if the bank is good.
I have friends in Mexico and they tell me that AMLO, the left-leaning president, is adamant to make his people’s bank, where every little village will have banking services. He is being excoriated for it, but he is adamant and the structure will be that of the Dakota model far as I can figure.
From being a small child, my dad explained … you cannot make a lasting business relationship with the bank manager – always have a plan B because the bank is not set up to be your friend – it may look like and feel like a good relationship, but it never is – we were in business and farming so a bank is important and the relationship is different than if someone works at a job, has their salary paid into a bank, and payments made from there. The business model is a less simple model and sometimes really complicated, especially with all the cross-border trade. So, I grew up looking a little deeper at banks but specifically the flows of money – and I realized that the ‘money pipes’ are sticky. You pay this one or that one pays you, and that pipe of money flow sticks to that money and grabs an undue portion for themselves – even once the initial investment of developing those ‘pipes’ is paid off, the portion remains undue – it is not a fair payment for service.
Remember the Cyprus situation, where those banks just simply took the money of the depositors – haircuts, it was called at the time. Now take a look at what the finance minister of Canada just called the savings of ordinary Canadians – “preloaded stimulus” and said she wants to “unlock that preloaded stimulus” to give it to the Canadians of her choosing. If I had some savings in a Canadian bank, I would take it out and put it somewhere else right about now.
CAF says .. do not fund or otherwise support those who want to control you. So, it is local banking for me but still, the debt base is worrying. It also changes if one travels – it is then when you see the harsh control of banks. My husband is American, and that is one of two countries where people working outside the country must pay taxes inside the country. That is controlled by banks and bank account data is shared with the tax authorities. So if banks start controlling tax payments, something is kinda not right any longer.
That is why when the Bitcoin (bear in mind that the first Bitcoin was taken over by the borg already here in 2014) white paper appeared about 11 years ago .. peer to peer electronic cash in other words no middle man, no bank in the middle, floated by people and not the State, a fixed money supply, cheap and reliable and no stickiness in the money pipes or transactions, I have my own bank in my pocket, cross-border transactions are just the same as other transactions, trust is inherent in the technology system of floating the currency, it is open-source, it was a good thing for me. These have hard money properties and are not debt-based. From there, I stuck with these principles. It was hilarious when the states became interested, said it was not money, and then taxed everybody. Duh, not money? I don’t see the States pay for the development but they insist on a share?. It is highway robbery.
Now to taxation – in this respect, I am a hard anarchist (in this respect only and that word has been rubbished. Its original meaning was someone who supports small government). We side with the concepts of sovereign voluntaryists and consider forced taxation as theft. The story changes though if there is transparency and it is clear what the funds need to be used for, or invested in and it is there to benefit local communities. So, it is not simple and straight forward. But if taxation is used for war and weapons, and on a debt basis, that is where I start refusing the system.
James Corbett is right when he says we need to stop glazing over and figure out what is happening here – because it is banks and money flows that become the real instruments of oppression.
CAF worked an example once. She showed the difference of say 300 dollars in a community bank and a big control bank. It was quite staggering. I’ll see if I can find it.
Money in its essence is a message, a communication. If we communicate that the current systems are fine by using them, well, they will be used against us.

Money is a message, government intervention limits bandwidth
I watched Corbett’s report on The Great Hijacked Reset. It’s a very Good One!
Glad I mentioned him in Western Japan in the context of Dawson’s Rant…also from Japan
For people that don’t know Corbett, his 5 minute primer on 911 now many years old, is priceless:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-GppBpUeYg
9/11 Explained in 5 Minutes
James Corbett does administer smelling salts for waking the dead asleep, very effectively, Colonel.
I add the Hijacked because that is what Col does not yet want to face: That Stupid 19 is THE principal Present Day 911 Fear Mechanism (The Stick) to Rob the Freedom of the entire Human Species at this time.
Oh, they will still use “Climate Change” as part of the neuro-linguistic programming to herd the sheeple into administering their own culling.
911??? A bit past its expiration date except for the absolutely brain dead addicts of Fake News
But one doesn’t know where he stands on that (Climate Change Fakery or 911), because of the Single Issue Fixation on the PRESENT Fearsome Thingee and all those “catastrophically increasing cases” of people who are administered fraud designed tests, have no symptoms, and infect no one else….except with raving, irrational fear which can’t see the Mass Culling of Agenda 2030 for these absurd Cases Which Are NOT really Cases…in the vast, vast majority…when all is said and done.
Let’s see if Col can review the Corbett Report…and take it from there.
And maybe, just maybe..could he.begin to see the Much Larger and More Significant Strategic Forest despite the Distracting and Immensely Disorienting Single Issue Fake Tree Thingee???.
Meanwhile some of amarynth’s experiences, resonate and I note some observance on the peer to peer singularities versus the One or None principal that seem like a promising shift. Namely, this phrase:
” (bear in mind that the first Bitcoin was taken over by the borg already here in 2014) ”
AGREED! Although I am not totally sure what you mean by that. So, pending clarification…that’s my caveat.
Meanwhile I will use Frank and Tracy, next…to try to show what I would hope you mean by that both in digital detail….(….that they understandably lack…in terms of time and more immediately urgent concerns like Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, and The Keystone State) and in overarching concepts of Society and Individual, Nation State and Citizen, Centralization and Decentralization.
All of which can get muddied and muddled….inverted and perverted……all too often……very very fast.
And signal gets lost in the noise.
And whatever the above “borg phrase by amarynth means…… the numbers are POWERFUL.
And being a numbers guy, it is my DUTY….. for individuals here…..or in the alt-media world…(same confusion and bouncing off the surface of things we so frequently observe in all other endeavors and disciplines!) to explain what I have discovered.
Because civilizationally for the next few centuries……it could be fantastic…in how it (peer to peer digital cash) assists a better world evolving .OR a return to the Feudal Pagan Pre-Christian World Klaus Schwab pines for …………. and Adolph Hitler pined for could be the Other Outcome if ALL tools for Freedom are not understood and utilized effectively.
Hi Bro
Follow the money…
Corbett has an even more enlightening episode 309 – Guide to the Great Monetary Reset
Quoting… “Do you know what it means when the Managing Director of the IMF warns of a “new Bretton Woods moment?” How about when the head of the BIS revels in the total surveillance power that digital currencies will afford the central bankers? Well, you’re about to. Don’t miss this info-packed edition of The Corbett Report podcast where James peels back the layers of the great currency reset onion and uncovers the New World (Monetary) Order.”

An excellent source of self-education in this field is Mike Moroneys’ “The Hidden Secrets of Money”. Mike explains the big difference between “money” and “currency”, and how what we use today isn’t “money”, it’s Government created “Currency” – and how our economic woes all stem from that.
He used a huge team to put together a superb series of lectures, illustrated with great animation, plus he travelled the world to bring different nations as backgrounds. It is in fact just about the best piece of education on money/currency, and current economics you can find – and for free.
As further testimony — odd that to be “censored” by the Aristocrat Bourgeoisie has become a testimony of truth and high value :-) – No. 10 of the series has already been blocked by YouTube on the grounds of a completely false accusation of “copy-rite infringement”.
So – grab it while you can, I guess.
Pamela,
I won’t try to show that I know all about the subject of Central Banking, commercial vs investment banking, reserves, deposits, government vs private banking, inflation targets etc. I don’t. Thru the years I’ve read The creature From Jekyll Island by Griffin, End The Fed by Ron Paul, Financial Terrorism by John F. McManus, etc etc etc. Somewhere in my library I have a copy of The Federal Reserve Bank’s annual “report” from several decades ago and it actually spoke of how “fractional reserve banking” as we know it started. Basically the goldsmiths had secure vaults for storing the gold they worked for customers. Recognizing this security, people would for a fee store their gold there for safekeeping and get a “certificate”. IE, a Gold certificate certifying how much gold they had stored there. If they wanted to buy a fine ox for an ounce of gold they would withdraw the ounce, adjust the certificate, and buy the ox. Incidentally, at today’s prices, a “fine ox” WOULD be about an ounce of gold. At some point, the normies decided it was easier to just reassign all or part of the certificate to the ox seller than to go get the gold from the goldsmith. [me]…. Well, when the goldsmith saw that some of the normies were exchanging the certificates, they started making up certificates that had no backing and used them to buy themselves goods and services and in the process created “inflation” of the “money” supply and HIGHER prices. This worked as long as the normies didn’t all come back at once with more certificate’s than there was gold. Well, the normies figured it out and started hanging the goldsmiths. The surviving goldsmiths went to the “king” and described the dilemma. Of course the “king” asked, “what’s in it for me?”. The goldsmith replied “a percentage and more power”.
So the “king” declared that the gold certificates were “legal tender” for all debts public and private. Viola! Modern Central Banking.
Well, I like to come back to this question. What is basic “capital” and how is it represented. I have a professor friend (and fellow combat vet) who can give all sorts of definitions for “capital”. Human, resource, infrastructure, etc etc etc. Being of the simple type, here’s my definition.”Capital is profit from producing a good or service and selling it for more than it took to produce it”. You can extrapolate that out to my prof friend’s definition quite easily, but again, I’m the simple sort. Now, this is where “money” comes in. I was a builder and bartering a building is impractical, not impossible, but impractical. Mostly we need a means of exchange other than the good or service.
Gold and silver, salt, sugar, precious stones etc became accepted proxies and capital themselves. We may never return or go to a “real” capital system but maybe at least more fair.
In Dec of 15′ I had a one on one 5 minutes alone by pure accident with syndicated columnist (for the Empire) George Will. He started the conversation with a reference to the recently begun Repub debates and if I “had a candidate”. Well, we debated Trump vs the field and I bested Will…..I’m a MAGA guy. At the end of our conversation I said to him; “There is an entity that can create capital from thin air without turning a screw”. Will looked at the floor between us and said softly, “Well spoken”. When he looked for the door I stuck out my hand and said, “Nice to meet you Mr. Will”.
I don’t know if I added much to the discussion……….
Yes, the history of how we got here is interesting, isn’t it? And Mikes’ series does cover it very well.
I might add, re the issue of Banks closing and securing all monies held, that in Aus at least, it was something of a shock to me to discover that in fact, in law, when you deposit money into a bank, it belongs to the bank at that point!!!!
Another good reason to keep any small change you might have left over and buy silver with it, to keep either at home or in a very secure – i.e. NOT bank – vault.
Thanks Amarynth,
the Cyprus case was obviously the try out – bail ins have quietly been made legal in the US and Europe :
https://sdbullion.com/legalized-bank-bail-ins
This has gone largely unreported – of course. It’s difficult for ordinary people to know what to do. The digital option makes sense – but then there are still questions of security. You say Bitcoin was taken over in 2014 – I had no idea – Max Kaiser is still constantly promoting it.
How is a non computer buff to know what to do ? Snowden has said there is no such thing as privacy on the internet. The National Security Agency carries out international surveillance, deciphering, collection, analysis. Can digital currency / transactions be interfered with ? If Bitcoin was taken over in 2014 why not again and other digital currencies ?
Couldn’t the NSA start mining – make 51% attacks ? Undermine currencies by anti digital laws / prevent exchange into local currencies, infiltrate developers, could they close exchanges ? I don’t know enough to feel secure – I don’t think I’m alone in that.
As to debt, if people were educated to avoid debt – or at least keep it to the minimum ( it’s needed for start up ) then make paying off a priority it would be manageable. Instead people are not educated in money at all and are lured into trouble. E.g. mortgages that start on a low interest rate, which then get jacked up to unaffordable levels – by design – which is fraud, but never mind. Lambs to the slaughter. That was the basis for the 2008 collapse – the mortgage fraud started it – then investment, insurance and borrowing frauds built on top.
The concept of odious debt has been forgotten – again by design – it needs to be remembered and used. Why should anyone, individual or country pay back debt entered into on the basis of fraud ? .
“.. den of vipers and thieves.. ” was the description by Andrew Jackson in the 1800s, then in the 1900s Henry Ford said something like,”… if the people understood how the banking system worked there would be a revolution before morning….” .. yet now – the bankers are even more entrenched.
sandinED, let me just answer the cryptocurrency questions.
What’s a non computer buff to do?
Learn the principles of cryptocurrency – not the computing. On the computing side, there are a few security principles and then one can be free of the true technical stuff.
Max Keiser?
Money has 3 properties:
– Cash for trade
– Store of Value
– Unit of Account
Keiser is into Store of Value, i.e., investment value. Bitcoin used to be peer-to-peer electronic cash but they accepted that Store of Value is more, well, valuable. They lost the cash aspect and that was done by design. So, it is now only good for investment because you cannot really trade with it – expensive and slow transactions and usable by the rich sobs. They are hoping that Bitcoin (BTC) will become a settlement currency for very large transactions. Its a little ponzi like these days. The word is hodl – funny drunk guy wrote an ode to BTC once and misspelled Hold and now we talk of hodl. So, they hodl and don’t really use it. That is not my deal.
Privacy?
There are privacy coins now focused on privacy and cross-functional coins focused on most everything. Again a few principles and a very pristine clean computer environment. These are not hard things to learn.
Can digital currency coins be interfered with?
Anything can, but hell you would hear an outcry to the heavens. Remember we are open source and any decent blockchain is open to assess transactions. It is not unknown though. Yet with the current technology if any strange transaction passes anywhere, the blockchain watchers are on it. These are very tight communities.
There is this Russian statistics company which I love and Nikita runs it. And, we all know Nikita and he knows all of us. We recently went through a chain split on one coin, and Nikita was on every channel with all the process, progress, and statistics – everybody talking at once with Nikita shouting the progress just about bit by bit and moment by moment.
https://twitter.com/blockchair?lang=en
https://blockchair.com/
That chain split created a new coin and currency and here we are trying to bring both Store of Value, and Peer to Peer electronic cash again back into one coin. Unit of account is a different kettle of fish.
That is where my interest is – a usable peer to peer electronic cash that can act as savings as well. But again, one does not go into it with everything you have – it’s like anything investment like – do not use the grocery money. In the coin communities where I am involved in, business acceptance is a big thing and we have people that do that as a business – getting other businesses to have the infrastructure to accept cryptos.
If Bitcoin was ‘borged’ what about other cryptocurrencies?
Well, we learned our lessons eh. What is fiddled with and can be fiddled with, are exchanges and cryptocurrency businesses. Not really the technical and blockchain process. The cryptography is highly robust. We still have Ross Ulbrich in jail for forever, for making a site where you could use Bitcoin to buy whatever, even drugs.
Can eg NSA start mining?
Of course, but what they mine, is as good as what every other miner mines. Again, everyone will know if they buy miners which are highly sophisticated computers now, and certainly cannot be bought off the shelf. Again with tight communities, we will all know, and possibly just refuse to mine on top of their blocks.
Bear in mind there is POW (proof of work, i.e., mining) and POS (proof of stake) which does not really worry about mining.
The Iranian story is so funny. The mosques do not pay for electricity. And all of a sudden, the authorities found Bitcoin or SHA256 mining rigs hidden in every mosque for the free electricity. So, they had to tumble and Iran now has a big mining industry but miners must sell their coins back to the Iranian state.
Can exchanges be prevented to exchange into local currencies.
Yes of course and this has happened, but not so much now that the sector is more settled and robust.
Can developers be infiltrated?
That is exactly what happened with Bitcoin (BTC). All of a sudden those developers had very fancy jobs and became very rich. Now we insist on knowing our developers. And do remember, when that happened, we simply split the chain and went off mining a new coin.
Could they close exchanges?
Yes, and this has happened. But again we are now in a more robust sector and there are reliable exchanges who go through all the money laundering laws. (The State is hungry – it wants the taxes out of this business sector).
We have crypto friendly jurisdictions and crypto unfriendly jurisdictions. The US is decidedly crypto unfriendly. There is talk now that they will ‘outlaw’ personal wallets and that you may have cryptocurrencies, but only if you store it with a 3rd party (they want to make banks again). So, I am not there luckily.
Feeling secure?
I’ve been into cryptocurrencies since Bitcoin traded at .21 cents and then .50 cents. Been through three Bitcoin wars, and those wars are fierce. Security is a daily task and staying on top of things is a daily task. To run your own bank means that you have to run it like a bank and manage it like a bank, and secure it like a bank. But nothing feels better than to know I am not feeding the beast if I use a cryptocurrency. One has to pay attention though. Would you feel secure if you use a new central bank digital currency? Do you feel secure with the current situation in the world? What can I say .. its a tough life :-) and we all seek our place in the sun as free and sovereign people. I grow food, use cryptocurrencies wherever possible, use and study alternative methods of health and act as support for The Saker.
You know the thing with James Corbett that kicked of this conversation – he urges that action is necessary.. So, we have a bunch of folks here that have studied the sick systems of the day. I hope some of that goes into action, even if it only is securing a direct farm to family non-toxic food supply.
Amarynth,
it’s so good of you to take your time to explain all that to me – I really am way behind the times when it comes to crypto – I must try to catch up.
Thanks so much for your help.
Amarynth, is there no end to your talents ? :-)
Its not talent sandinED. I wish I had talent. Just learned at a very young age to take in information quickly and remember it well and put it to use. We were information starved. That’s all. It’s just work. At one stage my husband complained – saying he is OK sleeping with two books in the bed, but five books are too many :-) And I was lucky to get to live and work in a bunch of countries, so, these experiences help. And I had clever kids so they pushed me along. YoYo kids that came home and wanted to share everything and make me understand everything lol.
I hope that helped a little – it is a mess if you first start looking at it. Just all the new language makes one dizzy. Feel free to ask anything if you get stuck.
Aah, I forgot. I have a talent. I cook and bake really good! :-) Food speaks to me. (Or so say the people that eat it, or those that beg me to make something special for them for a special occasion and so on). Nice, I just discovered I have a talent.
(But that also took a number of courses! so, that was work.)
What is your talent sandinED? Or anyone – what is your talent?
Well I’ve racked my brains and no – there’s nothing – zilch, nada, rien, ingenting – that I could possibly call a talent. For you it’s a case of ..is there no end to.. ? For me it’s … is there no beginning… ?
Amarynth…as usual you make some excellent observations.
In your question…”If this is used locally, it is better than nothing of course, but it is hard to figure how to get out of the debt model, even if the bank is good.”…
I would like to expand on this a tad with a very basic blueprint of a workable situation which not only disenfranchises the private banksters, but also greatly enhances local development and almost certainly achieves savings of at least 50% in financial costs.
I am sure there are a multitude of holes in what I propose but I enthusiastically invite critique because I know in my heart that there is a way forward. Sadly I also know that the US Empire is too far gone now to survive intact and that its disintegration is now utterly inevitable.
Perhaps what we all need to do is to begin the discussion on what the replacement banking industry will look like at both State and local level which the country can move to as it attempts to reinvent itself.
As such I offer up this post as a very crude and basic starting point towards some sort of workable model. Surely our energy would be much better spent collectively on this project rather than on the perpetual and thoroughly tedious argument of which absolutely incompetent baffoon should be in residence in the big old house on 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. And yes, I will ignore the hysterical screaming from N93…again!
Amarynth, to me there is nothing wrong with debt per se IF it created in a sensible way and fits in with the below criteria…
#1 It is created by a cooperative/state bank which works for Mainstreet …not some fat cat cartel of thieving banksters
#2 Managers/staff are paid realistically but have to perform and can only make sensible sustainable loans…bonuses are paid on results only
#2 ‘Locally’ in this instance means local enough for meaningful oversight of loans and by definition moral hazard becomes a discipline once again in the way loans are issued. There would be no such thing under this system as making deliberately toxic loans and bundling them up into unbacked financial instruments only to fraudulently sell them on to 3rd and 4th parties
#3 There is a new State Central Bank model [100% State Owned] in the background that supports and oversees these banks. These state owned CBs and local Coop banks would each be backed by real assets [local and state]
#4 Interest rates would be moderate and only at a level to allow the bank to function smoothly and to function for its customers. There are no shareholders…the only owners are the participating customers…their payback is reasonable interest rates and a full and reliable set of banking services with good security…what a thoroughly novel idea!!!
Localised cooperative banking models can be a huge boost to local economies and can neatly gel with the demographics and the wealth circumstances of any local community.
One way to envisage it is to think in terms of the demographics of any given local community and the people of different age levels and stages in their lives, careers, business’s, and wealth accumulation.
In any given community there obviously would be at least 3 obvious categories and quite some degree of overlap as well…
A The young starting out and needing capital for home building or setting up a business and accumulating assets
B The middle age and middle class some with excess funds looking to invest them…or some wanting funds for further expansion
C And of course the retired who have savings and only require a fair return for them to be able to live comfortably and stress-free
Please everyone throw as much criticism as you can at me on this one…I welcome it and hope with your assistance to one day panel beat this into a technically coherent plan.
I envisage the final answer as being very much a case of ‘back to the future’ as so many aspects have already been trialed. With the huge benefit of hindsight, I am supremely confident that there is an exciting way forward.
My current draft will more than likely look like Swiss cheese to many of you… but maybe as a team, we can begin to start plugging up some of the obvious holes.
Cheers and best regards to all
Col
Col, give me a little time on this one please. Mondays are busy in my neck of the woods. Perhaps take a look at how the Muslims approach debt in order to avoid making money on money, or simply the prohibition against charging interest.
Col,
in answer to your post on banking to Amarynth,
What you have described is very much similar to what I understand banks used to be / how banks used to behave. My father started a business in the 60s. He needed a loan from the local bank – it was not easy to get – he had to show his business idea was viable and put up some money himself. That seems sensible and responsible so as not to lure inexperienced people into trouble. But what is different is that his bank manager genuinely helped him – only allowing a small loan that could be afforded and actually advising that the loan should be paid off as quickly as possible to save money.
It was the same when he wanted to buy a house i.e. put money down, don’t borrow more than you can afford / pay it off as quickly as possible / pay over the minimum whenever you can – it was all genuine, good advice, which my father needed – and heeded – he paid off his mortgage in just over 3 years ( of course property was not so expensive relative to income then.).
What’s happened now is that the banks are out to squeeze you for everything you’ve got – they’re out to lure you into trouble. The FIRE sector is now sucking all disposable income out of the economy so we have debt deflation – you’ll be familiar with Michael Hudson talking about this.
I’m using the example of my father because there was a morality to banking then and it was not that long ago – I suppose it all changed with the Thatcher / Reagan years – and later on the repeal of Glass Steagall, ( bank bail outs required just 8 years later wasn’t it ? ) In the UK the Building Societies converted to banks and started behaving like predators. Who was it that said the fish rots from the head down ? I think maybe Gerald Celente – it’s true.
When I think of it, when I bought a property in Norway it was actually quite similar. When I asked my bank about a mortgage they advised they wanted 20% of the asking price as deposit – as that way I would be given a low interest rate – they also advised me to make regular extra payments as it could take years off the mortgage. I was earning an engineer’s salary so they could have pushed me for their own profit – but they didn’t – it was again honest good advice. That was in the 90s.
So my answer to you is not helpful at all – but maybe a bit hopeful – if the banks could perform a genuine service in the 60s and even still in the 90s ( albeit in Norway which may not be typical ), it’s got to be possible to return to that kind of model without having to start from scratch. A return to when banks provided a genuine service in their communities and operated from a moral basis.
Am I just looking back with rose coloured spectacles ?
All the best Col,
Sand
Sand
On the contrary…your answer is most helpful…these are anecdotal examples of a bygone era when banking services were not as predatory and where sensible restraints like the simple concept of moral hazard made the whole industry so much more responsible.
That’s why I said in my post…
“I envisage the final answer as being very much a case of ‘back to the future’ as so many aspects have already been trialed. ”
Let’s not reinvent the wheel…we don’t need to…the workable models past, and present are everywhere, just as your examples show.
Cheers
Col
Unfortunately the cure to your problem ends up being worse than the disease, for todays innocent(s) as well as the guilty(s), and as I have suggested before, be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.

Yes, and he is constantly on about how he vibrates at such an extraordinarily high level, unlike the rest of us dullards…hmmm, wonder if he has a BOB…
Just a thought
Col
Catch a bitcoin wave, and ur sittin on top of the world.
You need to please say some more Alabama. I am not sure of the tack that you are taking here and would like to better understand.
Col,
I’m delighted to say I agree with everything you wrote ! I have read Ellen Brown before – and about the Dakota model, I think Catherine Austin Fitts may have talked about that too – looks like I’ve got some reading to do – thanks for the tips.
Surely it’s not beyond the wit of man to design a banking system to serve the population ? Cooperative banks for local needs, a public bank for the macro economy perhaps ? The present system is clearly organised theft, dressed up in fine words or complicated jargon designed to confuse. Didn’t Bernanke claim he was ” doing God’s work ” ?
I watched the Corbett report video posted by Amarynth – there was a repulsive bloated creature ( I sometimes think these people look what they are – monsters ) from the BIS positively drooling about how CBDCs – central bank digital currencies would give the bankers ” absolute control “, and said something about ” this would be enforceable “- very sinister. Then he went on to digital I.D.s / cross border I.D.s. Bill Gates appeared offering his ” philanthropy ” to get these things up and running. It’s not just money – it’s power – and not just power but absolute power they want.
Gates’ ‘ philanthropy ‘ reminded me of Tressell’s Ragged Trousered Philanthropists, which was written just before the formation of the Fed. This quote is still relevant today :
“….Poverty is not caused by men and women getting married; it’s not caused by machinery; it’s not caused by “over-production”; it’s not caused by drink or laziness; and it’s not caused by “over-population”. It’s caused by Private Monopoly. That is the present system. They have monopolized everything that it is possible to monopolize; they have got the whole earth, the minerals in the earth and the streams that water the earth. The only reason they have not monopolized the daylight and the air is that it is not possible to do it. If it were possible to construct huge gasometers and to draw together and compress within them the whole of the atmosphere, it would have been done long ago, and we should have been compelled to work for them in order to get money to buy air to breathe. And if that seemingly impossible thing were accomplished tomorrow, you would see thousands of people dying for want of air – or of the money to buy it – even as now thousands are dying for want of the other necessities of life. You would see people going about gasping for breath, and telling each other that the likes of them could not expect to have air to breathe unless the had the money to pay for it. Most of you here, for instance, would think and say so. Even as you think at present that it’s right for so few people to own the Earth, the Minerals and the Water, which are all just as necessary as is the air. In exactly the same spirit as you now say: “It’s Their Land,” “It’s Their Water,” “It’s Their Coal,” “It’s Their Iron,” so you would say “It’s Their Air,” “These are their gasometers, and what right have the likes of us to expect them to allow us to breathe for nothing?” And even while he is doing this the air monopolist will be preaching sermons on the Brotherhood of Man; he will be dispensing advice on “Christian Duty” in the Sunday magazines; he will give utterance to numerous more or less moral maxims for the guidance of the young. And meantime, all around, people will be dying for want of some of the air that he will have bottled up in his gasometers….”
Tressell knew then, the public knew then – enough in any case to not want the creation of the Fed – it had to be done by stealth at Xmas. People don’t seem to know today, or even want to – in thrall to the two party pantomime ( and reality show / celebrity BS ? ) – manipulated to fight each other while the gangsters make off with everything – the old divide and conquer trick. Which reminds me, ‘ The Money Trick ‘ is another section worth re-reading from the ‘ Philanthropists ‘.
As to the audit – well how about the Pentagon audits ? – nothing happened. It seems that audits, like taxes, are just for the little people – or Corbett’s phrase the ‘ tax cattle ‘.
So, thanks for the recommendations Col, and I wonder if you would call me Sand or Sandra ? Everybody’s calling me Sandy for some reason – I really don’t like it – reminds me of twee American TV shows. I know that’s very trivial in the scheme of things :-)
Cheers,
Sand.
All good Sand!
All the best to you
Col
Thanks Sand, this : ” It’s not just money – it’s power – and not just power but absolute power they want.”
Yes, I think that’s right, and power lust dressed up as virtue as the new norm. It is important to see through this abomination and adjust the frame in ones mind.
Tressell quote – capitalize the air !

Magnum opus credo
Jimi, Blue, and God
34. A Riddle
I don’t think Jimi actually vocalized ‘light”
At about 3:15 on “voodoo Chile” but
I know he wanted someone to hear it.
Wasn’t it well done? Posing a riddle
Is such a good way to arouse thought.
The issue around “making light to”
As in “making love to” one is—
You’ve got to be pushing,
You’ve got to be “behind”
The light.
One could say that the
Starting speed on “the Way”
Is the speed of light.
35. Cellophane Typewriters
Anyhoo…as Jimi would say:
The cellophane typewriters are
Beginning to crattle and crate.”
But: you can climb Jacob’s ladder
And have your say, or
Come from the pit, or
Walk the sword bridge with bare feet
To a sweet place but if
You get stuck alone in time
Behind the light you
Are ‘”up shit creek without a paddle!”
36. Scent
That’s what happened to Jimi.
He was caught behind the light
On the wrong side of eternity.
He flew here and there through heaven
Well hung, with his Snow White tan
And Afro , trying to get the other stars
To follow him to freedom
But it didn’t take.
As Ziggy Stardust said, Allah then
Had to break up the “band.”
No scent from the robes
Of the eternal youth on them.
Tsk, tsk.
37. Paradise?
I know well the pit
And the fire, and,
If “paradise is my love” perhaps
I will know that too.
In that regard, if the fire
Got to hot or painful
I just turned the wheel.
If chaos reached too deep
I just turned the wheel
And kept on walking…
38. Blue
I see now that Jimi was
“In my head” long before
I was in his. I always felt for
His plight over the years.
He fell on top of me and
When I turned the wheel
Away he flew. I am
Such a slow learner. That’s why
I am so blue and why
Music is so tragic;
Why I have sung the blues alone
For over forty years.
I am so, so Blue,
Can’t hold myself back,
I bought his spell,
I’m telling his tale.
Blue
During the painting of my first portrait of Australian performance artist, poet and iconoclast, Daevid Allen in 2005, ( you can see a detail of it here, ie; at Daevid’s performance site which his admin has chosen to keep up even though 5 years have passed since his passing ), http://www.daevidallen.net/daevidallen/index.html,
I was fortunate enough to hear many personal anecdotes about Jimi who Daevid adored and loved. ( Daevid’s band at the time, Soft Machine, shared Jimi’s management, and apparently your 5th line from ‘Scent’ is true )… Enthralled with Hendrix from a young age myself, it was certainly thrilling to hear firsthand stories from a kindred spirit and friend of Jimi’s. He was the gentlest of men, and as sweet an individual as can be, all of which belied his musical genius. Acc. to Daevid, who happened to be having a meltdown in one of the toilets in the building where the Experience was recording and rehearsing at the same time as the Soft Machine, Jimi casually walked into the toilets to find Daevid on the floor in hysterics. Upon hearing of Daevid’s frustrations, Jimi’s advice was to “do your own thing, man”, advice which Daevid took to heart and so began a career which Daevid continued, finding his audience with Gong in the early 70’s and continuing through 70 + albums, and with tours through Europe, the US and places like Japan, for 45 years until his death on March 13, 2015. This advice is imperative for every artist, and Daevid said it was the key he was looking for as a young man.
PS… In an interesting sidenote, when Jimi walked in on Daevid, Daevid had just smashed his guitar to pieces out of frustration. Jimi was to play Monterey the following year and did exactly this on stage, ie; “immolate” and destroy his Strat. Interesting too, that during a visit in 1989 Daevid asked me why the guitar I was playing “sounded different”. I explained that I had it tuned to an alternate tuning. He didn’t know such a thing existed, but then went on to write many songs including one of his best albums imo,
“Dreaming My Dream” of the early ’90’s, and he’d written almost every song over open guitar tunings! These are examples of how truth builds on itself, or there’s nothing new under the sun, ie, every idea comes from somewhere, which we then make our own.
What a wonderful and beautiful comment and thanks so much for the links.
“Dreamin’ My Dream” Daevid Allen ( Full Album, 1997 )

First of all, a big compliment of mine to those who choose the pictures for this Cafe. Again, so beautiful.
It’s Sunday. A day of leaning backward,and listen to music.
I was triggered by this commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAnbUKdGIoA .
The commercial itself is not annoying, the idea of the power of imagination is good. However, I will never drive an electric car (just ask the child slaves in Congo, digging the necessary cobalt ore, how enthousiastic they are about this concept).
But, the music. Immediately I thought ‘this is Tangerine Dream’. Tangerine Dream is a German mainly electronic band, known from my early childhood.
After some search I found out I was wrong. The music of this commercial was made by a specialized company.
But for those interested, imho one of the most beautiful albums Tangerine Dream has made, especially while allowing more acoustic instruments than ever. It’s called ‘Stratosfear’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6s3PPpnFJM
Enjoy. And stay safe and healthy.
Cheers, Rob
Still love rubycon…..haunting. Got several lp’s.
Just a few thoughts, in order to put some puzzle piece together in this SARS-Cov-2 times. There is so much white noise.
I’m not a microbiologist, nor a virologist (amazing how much of them are around, isn’t it?). I’m just an industrial engineer, trying to keep track of ‘la ligne rouge’ with common sense and some knowledge of biology and cytology.
What do I observe:
– In the beginning we were overwhelmed with figures about ill people and dying people. So little did we know. The origins of the virus are highly disputable, but that won’t bring is further for now. I spoke with a nurse in that time, the hospital looked like a war zone. People came in with vague symptoms, and within 2 hours they were on the IC. Don’t come to me that this is just a flu.
– Now we are just bombarded daily with ‘newly infected’. These are circus numbers. A PCR test (cheap) has an accuracy of just 3%, meaning that with a multiplication rate of 40 and more, of 100 positively tested people only 3 are infected indeed. Throwing a dice is more accurate.
– We are destroying our economic and social structure. In the beginning we know so little, understandable, I can remember frightening videos of Chinese people dropping on the street. Now that we know more, is this really worth it? Just an overview of the reality now in 6 minutes: https://www.bitchute.com/video/NMii8RzA11D2/
Aren’t we dealing here with some ‘Project Fear’?
– Our authorities. Here in Nordrhein-Westfalen, our Landespräsident Laschet, hade the nerve to come into the radio studio of WDR2, a much listened to radio station, on the day that lockdown 2 came into place. For 2 hours he answered questions of calling in irritated citizens in order to explain which complicated choices they had to make. Questions like ‘small businesses are hit again, but you keep schools open where scholars sit a half meter from each other without masks, and then go back to a thousand different homes, how do you rhyme that?’ (he answered that quite convincingly, it’ll cost me too much time to explain it for now).
You may agree or not, but at least Laschet had the nerve to do that, in stead of throwing orders over the wall and grumble that as the ‘Neuinfektionenzahl’ rise, it is those stupid citizens to blame that don’t stick up to their orders enough. Getting sick is ‘our own fault’, no?
– We are bombarded wit the narrative ‘a vaccine will save us all’. Of course. How often did we develop a working vaccine against a RNA-based virus like HIV, SARS, Ebola? They are RNA based, single helix in stead of double helix, prone to many mutations.
Hey, for months now there is a working vaccine, developed in the Russian Federation. They were so clever to point to the receptors of the virus, not its content. The EU was prancing ‘unreliable, uncertain’ and so on. Of course, the vaccine had to come from a NATO country. The EU was willing to grant many deaths in order to do so.
– NATO vaccines have been developed *trumpets*. They are ready all at about the same time, isn’t that remarkable? Authorities are already jumping to say that it will not be ‘mandatory’, but you won’t be able to travel, work or visit stores and public buildings.
Companies that developed it on beforehand got 2 special priviliges: the exact composition of their stuff is *secret*, and any legal responsibility is *null and void*.
Gee, why should they do that?
– Just a thought experiment: is it legal, to reject civil rights from persons who are not ill, but certain people suspect them to have a higher chance of it?
In Germany our health ministerJens Spahn has given this question to a Council on Ethics. It’s an advisory organization, not a legally binding one, but with quite some impact.
Their answer was *no*.
– To get some perspective: for the vaccine testing (Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca) many thousands of volunteers were made into contact with SARS-Cov-2 viruses on purpose. Only 0.7 % were infected effectively.
This means that our immune system has an effectivity of 99.3%.
– What is it that our authorities are so hell-bent to have us injected with a largely unknown substance, without responsibilities? I have such an idea.
Please read this petition and explanation varefully, also set up by a former Chief research of Pfizer. The vaccines will make women unfertile: https://healthandmoneynews.wordpress.com/2020/12/02/head-of-pfizer-research-covid-vaccine-is-female-sterilization/
Remember that Bill Gates is such a fan of Agenda 21 and it’s depopulation striving? This might be the real goal.
What vaccine was ordered in Israel? Spoiler alert: the Russian one…
I truly do hope that I’m terribly wrong.
Cheers, Rob
Rob, during the last 20 years, in the UK anyway, the vaccination programs for babies, children and adults, for medical prevention and for disease likelihood, have increased exponentially.
The global roll out programme for a disease whose level of severity and death incidence have caused so much confusion and so many questions, in regards to the restrictions also, is a follow on outcome of the above.
I am interested to see the results of the vacs industry and propaganda, there is resistance,but how effective will this be… One thing in the favor of the general public, is the relatively low death rates, i.e. there are still billions of people to vaccinate, the logistics of how they intend to do this baffle me.
Rob
I absolutely take on board your point that the PCR test has its limitations, but please consider this imperfection in the setting of Northern Italy in the link below and the implications of what would have happened if there was no test available at all early in the outbreak. Consider too the tragic implications if this imperfect test was not available anywhere in the world!
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/covid-19-coronavirus-tragic-error-caused-pandemic-to-decimate-italian-city-of-bergamo/WBDDIDG6J4PZGJSCFUPAZ67UGQ/
…and a quote from this link…
“When more patients without any connection to China began to get increasingly ill, medical professionals were struggling to understand the cause.
Dr Monica Avogadri, 55-year-old anaesthesiologist at Pesenti Fenaroli Hospital, was stumped when an 83-year-old man that had been sent home with flu symptoms was rushed back to hospital unable to breathe.
Neither the man nor his wife had any connection to China.
”China?” was the wife’s response, Dr Avogadri told the New York Times.
“She didn’t even know where it was.”
Without an apparent link to China Dr Avogadri wasn’t able to conduct a Covid-19 test.
Just days later, on February 20, another doctor in the nearby town of Codogno broke Italy’s testing protocol and discovered the first known case of local transmission in the country.
By this point multiple other infections were already circulated undetected in the community, which would soon turn into an explosion of cases and lead to thousands of deaths.
After hearing about the case Dr Avogadri, who by this point was also ill, called the hospital and asked for the 83-year-old patient be tested for Covid-19.
A test on the man and his hospital roommate came back positive.
“It was at that moment I understood we were screwed,” the hospital’s director Dr Giuseppe Marzulli told the New York Times.
“We had looked for who had been in China, and this was the tragic error.”
In the weeks following, cases soared in the Bergamo province, with hospitals becoming overrun and the virus claiming so many victims that army trucks were forced to come in and take coffins to other regions.”
Cheers
Col
They saw the same thing in China. People swab tested positive for flu, sent home, came back 1 to 2 weeks later not able to breathe. Swab tested them for flu again , test was negative.
That’s when they started to realize they had something really bad on their hands.
Thai medical news is where I read these reports back in February this year.
Even the FDA revealed that Covid vaccines may cause death and 21 other life-threatening conditions!
http://stateofthenation.co/?p=40280
Rob, I read something on how an additive to the vaccine may cause women to abort or not even be able to get pregnant, then I read an ad from England reminding pregnant mothers not to get the vaccine……….and then I arrived at the same conclusion as you.
Cheers, M
Wow!!!! Have any seen this and or commented on it here yet about ballots being printed in china
https://erbn.online/1427
Id say this is huge information
I have made reference to this comment before by Dmitry Orlov, but it received little interest. However, in light of your link, I’d like to copy directly Dmitry’s original comments, from his blogsite “cluborlov.blogspot.com” and the piece headed “A Pound of Flesh:
“ The US foreign policy establishment likes to treat Russia and China as major adversaries, but the two couldn’t be more different. Russia holds roughly zero US debt, has roughly zero trade with the US, and is fully stocked up on beer, pop corn and hypersonic weapons in case the US decides to pull any desperate moves.
China, on the other hand, holds just over $1 Trillion of US government debt. Its share of US trade deficit of over $60 billion a month is over 40%. In return for the valuable service of treating the US as a solvent debtor and sending it product in exchange for some more questionable debt, China would like to position someone friendly and compliant in the White House for the upcoming US bankruptcy and liquidation.
Enter Joe and Hunter Biden. Over the years they have been carefully cultivated and compromised by entities affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party and the People’s Liberation Army. If elected, Biden will do everything China asks of him. Thanks to him, the Chinese would be sure to get their pound of flesh once the US debts are called in. In comparison, Trump would huff and puff and tweet like crazy… and the result would be exactly the same.”
I offer it for consideration, and am proferring no opinion. But it’s been a bit on my mind with all this evidence that there has most definitely been a huge amount of voter fraud, that this is in fact not unknown in America [Pennsylvania has been “blue” for over 70 yrs I think], and as for Chicago — ’nuff said.
But if the suggestions, in fact some supported by paperwork, of the Bidens being involved in corrupt business dealings in China, are found to be true, and after Ukraine I doubt anyone would not readily believe they would be easily corruptible and bought off – it does make one wonder.
Could China have had a hand in oiling Joe into the WH, in order to get what it wants and needs?
At the moment, no knowing.
If Bidens were selling influence, can one really blame ALL the Chinese for some of them buying that influence??
I don’t think so!
It’s just that a number of things need to be “reset” besides Klaus Schwab’s reflex straight right-armed salute..
We need to dig deeper into the complexities, even if they are troubling.
For example many are huffing and puffing in indignation (both offensively AND defensively) about Venezuela and Hugo being involved with Dominion. But again, it’s the chicken and the egg situation.
Tore covers these complexities fairly enough, it seems.
She has good things to say about China long term and not so good things to say about their role………..
(yes…but WHO in China?? Pun intended, so make that an abbreviation. Doesn’t mean you throw ALL leadership there and 1.3 Billion people out with the bathwater and decide 6 million Tibetans are ALL good and All Chinese ALL bad!)
in printing …..supposedly 2020 ballots and owning a big chunk of Dominion. Fall guys???
Maybe we’ll see later…maybe we won’t….because a trade reset is too important….and conflict is off the table.
Venezuela?? Tore has a 1000 times more insider info than I have: All she said briefly on that was ……”So where do you think the machines used in Venezuela came from? From Florida.”
re: the times ahead, Crosstalk ( replete with a brief cute dog appearance):
https://www.rt.com/shows/crosstalk/508814-biden-power-legitimacy-agenda/
What they did not address is that the Demon-rats are opting for total power–that is control of the Senate as well as the House and Presidency; therefore the run off elections in Georgia are very important.
Also missing is the fact that the Demon-rats can pull no mass gatherings unless one counts paid-for professional rioters and local party officials, but Trump can. People turn out in the thousands.
Yes, there will be a short term war with Syria for seizure of a large part of the Syrian border alongside Israel…at the same time there will be a demonization of the working class. Even the NYT, lying rag that it is, today had to admit that minority working class people had voted for Trump in larger numbers than before. Oh dear, oh dear they sighed…it was those pesky “cultural” issues, we must push higher wages and health care, those economic issues. And they did beat the warped drum of white racism not mentioning much the real
white racism ,the institutional racism, of the Gucci wearing, private prison owning, music industry directing corporate real estate owning and managing rich white folk who in the next few years will put some cover over this fact by putting Blackminoritywomentransgender employees in visible positions. It used to be that a gay person looked like everyone else but now one must have a “gay identity” so ya gotta swish, ya gotta simper, ya gotta wear the clothes, have the tattoos and ear rings and do a pseudo gay cultural act. It is all part of politicizing identity.
The continuing war on the working class will be amped up as will petty harassment of Russia by untrustworthy and erratic elements in the US military. China? the Biden people and the techno-fascists cooperate with China–Apple has its servers there and gets all sorts of special care for its product manufacturing. It is a mistake to see China as monolithic….the CCP tries to project that image…however… The Brits did not traffic
opium just by holding a few ports and missionary outposts. think, my friends. think.
Possibly, a split in the military and the vast political bureaucracy may occur between the upper bureaucracy and the lower “grunts” but that will happen later on down the line.
Well actually, let me quote London Paul at the Sirius Report:
“The Sirius Report

We need to make this absolutely clear, China doesn’t give a damn who is elected in the US.”
Now, this is funny. Or not.
“A group of librarians at Ivy League institutions is advocating for a “world without policing.”
The group demanded that schools “explicitly name policing as the problem” while calling for the “complete abolition” of law enforcement.”: https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=16256
Take care, before you know it some ‘influencers’ (gee, is that a profession?) or ‘opinion makers’ will be gallopping away with what I think is completely naive and ridiculous. Just try to sell that idea here in European cities, whose centers are completely in hand of ferocious Arabic, Nigerian and/or Albanese gangs.
With their emphasis on ‘race’, they are introducing racism again with its most ugly face, but they are too stupid too see it. As a whole, I think it is outright dangerous to let society ruling into hands of people who might not be taken responsible when it works out that they were horribly wrong.
What paddos are these blokes on?
Cheers, Rob
@Rob
Well, they now go for the under sixth graders – mimicking protest marches for Biden in school, and 4th graders will spit on you when you insist Trump being a good guy….don’t ask them why they think that – the answer is because he is bad to people.
When you hear that, you know that you have a lot of work to do to even scratch their surfaces – 4th graders !!!
God help us !!!
Rob: “A group of librarians at Ivy League institutions is advocating for a “world without policing.””
I’m deeply grateful to Babushka for bringing this insight to us Cafe’istas
These calls are part of the Strong Cities Network to defund the police so that each city’s police force can be trained by the IOF (Israeli Occupation Force), not IDF – as yet another plank of Full Spectrum Dominance that ‘the City’ (the 1 sq. mile of banksters’ HO’s) wishes to roll out globally using its Mideast zombie state run by remote control
The globalism, dominance of one ‘nation’ over all other nations (not globalization) of One World Government will eventually abolish states/provinces, ie legal jurisdictions within nations – and even national borders themselves as The Grid will be imposed on each metropolitan area. Of course “World Peace” will be invoked to usher this in for the naive and the gullible – and the political Left will clamor for it (as ‘The Company’ recognized as long ago as the anti-war demo’s of the 1960s the power ‘the Left’ has to amplify issues (better than the alphabet agencies could themselves – and even moreso these days with the prevalence of social media)
It was said years ago (probly the ’70s or ’80s) that NYC was the perfect prison system as you had residents ‘ratting on’ ie informing on other residents of the city
This may take another 250 years, or so (my guess) but that’s their ultimate goal – all done technologically of course. The historical precedent for this was during the British Raj that required only 40,000 British officers/civil servants to subdue the entire Indian subcontinent (modern-day India, Pakistan & Bangladesh – a population then estimated at 250,000,000)
See the map of N. America for whats already been planned:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/51/MapofEmergingUSMegaregions.png/800px-MapofEmergingUSMegaregions.png
Then see how many other cities in target nations around the world that have already signed up to SCN:
https://strongcitiesnetwork.org/en/strong-cities/member-cities/
There will be no civil defense against these military-trained ‘officers’ and no recourse to a fair trial, ie
– an arrest,
– charge,
– trial (by a jury of one’s peers),
– verdict (beyond reasonable doubt) and
– conviction
which overturns 800+ years of legal precedent based on the 1215 English Magna Carta (altho, as an aside there are problems with that document too – too many to go into here)
Note that Noahide Law is already Public Law in ‘the land of the fee and the home of the slave’ – so much for the much vaunted ‘US Constitution’. Pffft!
My point is, esp. for the American cafe’istas that this misplaced and futile hope that ‘Trump will save us’ denies the facts as to how far advanced the OWG plans are. But as we all know denial is fabulous coping mechanism
As Orwell said if you want to see a vision of the future (which is essentially Fascism, or as Mussolini more correctly said “Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power” – (my emphasis)):
In the last Cafe I didn’t intend to demean Frank and Beanz in any way…in terms of being “Crypto-Clueless”. Since they are both……”good people”.
/moveable-feast-cafe-2020-12-02/#comment-881556 Bottom part…the ending portion………..
That C-Clueless perhaps unwarranted harshness ALSO describes the vast majority of people who have had much higher priorities on their plates…and ALSO a surprising number of foolish people in “the space” who don’t give a hang about fundamentals..or ANY theoretical rigor …AT ALL…..but are only interested in “Number Go UP”.
For them….so they can exit into dollars or other fiat so that they can buy whatever they dream of buying with as little effort as possible.
Now, again, I emphasize…………..there is a relationship between the Bitcoin/Blockchain invention and voter security (all kinds of data security, in fact…..even so fundamental as a non-hackable evolution of the internet, and again…… A FAR Better Reset than the WEF one of Klausie Baby.
His murderous pudgy mug reminds me of Chuckie……the horror movie enfant terrible……..But I digress…..
None of this strategic overview of what is or could potentially be related to what ………seems to be on Tracy’s or Frank’s radar….so I use their last Dark to Light Podcast
(Friday’s………….. https://www.stitcher.com/show/dark-to-light-with-frank-beanz the one titled: Fraud on Tape…..)
………………….. to potentially open up a wider and deeper exploration of something that deserves FAR more interest and cognition that is almost 100% lacking (NOT their fault!!) in a few minutes of Tracy’s ad break for BitTrust IRA…..Dark to Light’s new sponsor.
And since secure voting IS more immediately important I back up just a minute or two before the ad break discussion and transcribe and give y’all 24 hours to either show knowledge of the errors Frank and Beanz make…..or ask innocent questions…and of course anyone confident can offer answers or comments unencumbered by me, til Monday afternoon. Unless it’s REALLY short…I might sneak a comment or answer…or admission that I don’t know the answer to that question (yet), myself!
So here goes my transcript…..slide the slider of that podcast to 29 minutes…..Georgia 1 minute…then Tracy’s plug for BitTrust starts…..and there are ISSUES I have …..with almost every single phrase and most terms…that come out of Tracy’s mouth. But be my guest: Catch them first:
An attorney filing a case in Georgia reels off the fraud statistics there first:
“More than 100 Georgia voters sworn under penalty of perjury, attesting multiple violations of Georgia Election Code…………………….. (he finishes)
Tracy: “That’s IT! Game Over!
They didn’t even need to do anything else. It doesn’t matter what the machine fraud was …well it obviously ‘matters’ …but it also doesn’t………. because they counted 23,000 ballots, we have the influx (she means from the suitcases underneath tables caught on the landlord’s security cameras, after Republican pollwatchers were told to leave….that the counting was finished for election night…) of these ballots now timed exactly, because somebody was enterprising enough to find the time frame where those ballots were counted in that room when they lied that they weren’t counting ballots…but they were injected into the total …ALL for Biden 23000 votes from Staples Center at exactly the time that those people were sitting at those tables ……ALL of those things that the witnesses and attorney listed right there are proveable beyond a shadow of a doubt!
The records invalidate that election…OR Flip it. And there’s more!
But hold on….because before I go on to the next clip……THIS SHOW is brought to you by BitTrust IRA, Frank.”
Frank: Oh!
Tracy: Are you looking to add Bitcoin to your IRA, Frank??
Frank: (mumbles something inaudible…this is NOT Frank’s “wheelhouse”….LOL.)
Tracy: Well, you should be because it is at $19,000 per coin right now. Crypto assets present the best opportunity to build generational wealth since the discovery of oil and Bitcoin has been one of THE best performing assets of 2020 thus far,
BitTrust IRA helps you seamlessly and securely add crypto to your portfolio’s storage of your private keys in nuclear bunkers with military grade encryption, like they should do with our voting information.
They have a 24/7 trading platform, no minimum investment, unlimited trades, and a support team to help you along the way, just in case you don’t understand crypto, you can use them to help you out—-and they offer the lowest trading fees in the industry.
Go to BitTrustIRA.com/darktolight and for a limited time they are waiving the signup fee, so that’s a $50 value.
Just for our listeners.
Make sure you support our sponsors and support your retirement with Bitcoin, because: It is ON A ROLL!”
Frank: Yeah. I missed that train.
Tracy: You know, 5 years ago…no it was more than that—10 years ago, like 2011 when Bitcoin first started coming out, all my friends in the Liberty Movement were like, “You’ve gotta buy Bitcoin, you’ve gotta buy Bitcoin…and some of them bought hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars of Bitcoin when it was like 30 cents a coin.
Frank: Yeah! Good for them.
Tracy: And now they are like multi-millionaires. They are! I didn’t believe them. I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, Crypto, WHATEVER!’
Frank: The thing that kills me is that I still don’t understand anything, so it’s not like I can beat myself up for not jumping on it. Ummm—I still don’t understand what it’s all about, but what I DO understand is that “Face Palm Kind of Situation I’ve heard about so many times about how pretty much your ‘wallet’ is digital…it’s on your hard drive, all those Bitcoin wallets that have been thrown out with old computers………
Tracy: Oh My GOD!
Frank: That are probably ….
Tracy: Oh, My Gosh!
Frank: ……..a billion dollar—I’ve read several stories about that, people who’ve had $500 worth of Bitcoin in 2009 that got thrown out with an old computer.
Tracy: Oh, my god!
Frank: YEAH!
Tracy: Because your wallet is everything. Which is why they store their wallet in nuclear bunkers.
Frank: Ummm!
Tracy: Because it’s everything! If you lose that wallet, you’re done! Done, Son, finished, OVER! That’s it!
Now, back to Georgia…………………”
*******************
I found this absolutely hilarious, so filled with misconceptions like a 5 year old boy and a 6 year old girl discussing their first impression of the birds and the bees.
And I mean to help….but HOW??? Already tried 2 emails with Frank. He’s closed up on this, like a clam! It’s fear of the unknown…………
If they are your sponsor you had better FIND OUT Frank!!!! Before you lose a big chunk of a very pissed off audience….unless they are very, very lucky with their entry and exit timing.
Because A BIG RESET is coming to that space ……as well as to many others!
SO CAFE GUYS: Have at it if you want to correct their birds and the bees innocent view of it. OR if you have innocent questions yourself.
I will just give a clue as to the sorts of silly myths in the above:
Any halfway crypto educated person laughs at the “lost wallet” on an old computer thrown away Newbie Horror Story:
Whether the wallet APP was downloaded onto a desktop OR a smart phone dropped in the ocean….NO PROBLEM!
It comes with an algorythmicly generated “SEED” of a sequence of either 12 or 24 randomly and uniquely generated short English words….that should be written down with a pen on a piece of paper OFFLINE at the time of the wallet’s creation when it has nothing in it.
And that piece of paper (or 2-3) should be kept securely in a safe deposit box…..secure hiding place or two….or if just 12 words ……..even memorized.
If you can do that, (memorize the seed) you can travel across borders (maybe not following your nation’s laws of declaring things…but I’m talking like refugees, dire straits….escaping those guys! ) with your account…………….in your head. Memorized Seed.
Try THAT with any other asset!
You can guess from its name what the SEED does: It recovers, regenerates the account.
End of Crypto Scare Story.
“But wait! There’s MORE!” (fear of the unknown)…..to be examined later…….some very real….some NOT.
following your comments on the crypto trail- thank you.

Proof: Covid-19 Was Planned To Usher In The New World Order
A few snippets from the article…
http://stateofthenation.co/?p=33972
In 2015 a ‘System and Method for Testing for COVID-19′ was patented by Richard Rothschild, with a Dutch government organisation.
Did you catch that? In 2015 – four years before the disease even existed – a testing method for COVID-19 was developed.
Data from the World Integrated Trade Solution, however, shows something astonishing:
“in 2017 and 2018 – two years before COVID-19 – hundreds of millions of test kits for COVID-19 were distributed worldwide.”
The World Bank shows that COVID-19 is a project that is planned to continue until… end of March 2025! So the intention is to continue it for another five years.
In 2017 Anthony Fauci made a very strange prediction, with an even stranger certainty.
With complete confidence Fauci announced that during the first term of President Trump a surprise outbreak of an infectious disease would surely happen.
Here’s what he said: “There is no question there is going to be a challenge for the coming administration in the arena of infectious diseases.
“There will be a surprize outbreak. There’s no doubt in anyone’s mind about this.”
So the Peshitta Bible is the Syriac Aramaic Bible. The translations selling on Amazon probably are not the ones that I need. What is interesting is that the Book of Revelations in which the Western Christians are reveling these days is not part of their canon. It figures. Nor are some of Paul’s letters. Well, that explains some things possibly. More will be revealed. or not.
Meanwhile, the latest dispatch from the belly of the technocratic beast.
The Christmas tree is up and being decorated. I have an appointment with a 12 ft ladder, 26ft of snowflake fairy lights and an unadorned top of a 9 ft freshly cut white fir. (We fell in love at first sight and I pampered her with a gallon of sugared water which she slurped up.) Artistic directions will be emanating from below–probably a chorus of them. Lockdown California begins Sunday night. It remains to be seen just how the community responds to this morale boosting gesture. So far, caroling is on for the night of the 23rd although rain is scheduled. “Harumph, snorted the chorale director, “what are umbrellas for? And if the good Lord takes me, well, here I am.” I like this woman. Hope she stays well.
The demon-rats have divided up California into 6 shut down zone probably to by-pass county by county opposition. However, key Sheriffs ( of San Bernardino and Orange County ) are saying that they will not break up holiday gatherings, instead, leaving it up to the people to take necessary precautions. Resistance will out!!
The hype is that hospitals are at 85% capacity which actually is quite usual for a heavy flu season but that is not mentioned.
Another of our residents who was hospitalized for diabetes related issues was discharged from the hospital into a nursing home as an immunological precaution although he had no signs of “the thing-ie”. His family cannot see him for 14 days or is it now just 10? Who knows what the latest confusing diktat is. But everyone is very worried about him because even the best of nursing homes have few State inspections and little local oversight. His family wants him home.
The question of whether our social club gets involved in the enforcement of State health mask guidelines ( and later vaccine protocol) will be on the agenda at this week’s meeting. I am trying to head this off making the argument that it is not our job to do so and that it will split solidarity of the community if we acquiesce. I’m hoping for a tie vote if it comes to that. The winter weather here is sunny and temperatures are in the high sixties–people should be out more walking but they are not thanks to the idiot medical bureaucrats. Exercise, good food, Vitamin D, hand wash, nasal/oral lavage–how controversial is this? But most people neither trust nor respect government officials and they are afraid.
Like reading your “dispatches” teranam13, keep them up, please.
Things in California seem to have hope with some defying these insane orders. I noticed recently when I go out, an increasingly “ laissez faire” attitude towards the one remaining piece of insanity – face nappies worn out of doors. I see few now wearing them while driving their cars, many have ditched them while walking.
Only in “enforced” areas, i.e. to get a public transport or entry to a major store, guarded by a bored looking young male, vaguely waving something supposed to take temps, at which he never looks anyway, and brief squirt of etoh onto one hand – which I instantly wipe down the outside of my jeans – and many, like myself even in the store are pulling down the mask to uncover the nose.
It seems for the New Year, the traditional fireworks have been banned, but not the Christmas Parade or pageants. Apparently this very smart “virus” can spread from person to person among a group setting of lethal explosive devices, but not if they are gathering to drink and celebrate the newborn Christ. Very respectful of it, say I.
HOwever, the major driver of wearing masks is fear of authority, as you referred to. Or – not even them, but the fines. When you are living, as my taxi driver friends, on a minimum wage of US$340 a month, with a family to feed, being fined $200 would be an utter disaster. But drivers etc fear losing their job. It’s the most primeval fear – fear of being unable to eat and feed young ones – being used now. Which is not a thing I ever thought to see in my lifetime!!
Hope your Christmas decorations go well.
Interestingly, the only absolutely adherents – those who lift a mask in order to try and pour coffee down their throats, and who chastise all who dont, are American expats!!
Slowly truth is surfacing. This is truly actionable information in everyone’s own areas. Anybody wants to lock you in, mask you or so on, first insist on Vit D supplementation, supported by your government and freely available. This is the right way to go.
Vitamin D Insufficiency May Account for Almost Nine of Ten COVID-19 Deaths: Time to Act.
“Evidence from observational studies is accumulating, suggesting that the majority of deaths due to SARS-CoV-2 infections are statistically attributable to vitamin D insufficiency and could potentially be prevented by vitamin D supplementation. Given the dynamics of the COVID-19 pandemic, rational vitamin D supplementation whose safety has been proven in an extensive body of research should be promoted and initiated to limit the toll of the pandemic even before the final proof of efficacy in preventing COVID-19 deaths by randomized trials.”

Yeah, that’s probably the main one on Shiva’s list. C also…but check to see if your C has MORE real C….not just ascorbic acid.

Tore cracked me up several weeks ago, saying: “Yeah, I’m also taking that other one………..uh, uh…..geez I can’t remember what it’s called…it starts with Q…”
Quercetin
D, Quercetin, and Zink. Make sure of quality. My wife and I have been on this since the start. D makes your system think it has “sunburn” and it triggers your immune system. Quercetin also triggers it. The Zink helps the “triggers”. DON’T get the “shot”!!!!

As I’ve said before (having worked with a naturopath since 2001) that zinc (found in Ginger, which is known as the ‘king of herbs’) works synergistically with other vitamins and minerals
Zinc acts as the catalyst, kickstarter, for 200+ different enzyme systems in the body
~90% of zinc is stored in our muscles and bones (which is why a form of resistance training, either weights or swimming, is necessary for bone density and muscle tone)
As an aside, this single fact re: the importance of zinc in our diets (altho I’m reluctant to attribute any outcome/result to a single cause) could explain why its the elderly who are often:
– mineral deficient,
– lacking in sunlight esp. in the N. Hemisphere’s winter and
– their lack of bone density and/or muscle tone from lack of exercise (esp. nursing homes & retirement villas)
who are the cohort (as well as those incapacitated by co-morbidity) worst affected by the ‘thing-ee’

Thats really interesting amarynth, thanks for that.
Given that “Influenza season” with its traditional “winter coughs and sneezes” is a Northern Hemisphere in winter thing, i.e. little to no sunshine, – I wonder if all along this hasn’t been at the base of all the related URTI’s.
Here they are selling mass VitC – about 1000mgs per dose, plus zinc and Vit D, and I added in Vit A.
Perhaps this is a thing everyone, especially in the North, should start to do every Autumn. When I was a child, [in the U.K. ] the Government provided free concentrated Orange juice – i.e. Vit C, and Cod Liver Oil, i.e. Vits A and D. to all kids under 6. {Because my brother flatly refused to take his, I got it, and thus had this supplement till I was 12, and I never got colds. Nor do I now. He did}.
IN fact few of us back then got much in the way of colds, ever. Of course, since those more generous times, the UK long ago stopped helping child health, but increased vaccinations, in which time few to no diseases have abated much, but autism and allergies have gone through the roof!!
@ hound, DON’T get the “shot”!!!! and don’t get shot shopping until you drop either !
Especially in London… On the first weekend of Christmas shopping after lockdown, the crowded streets raised fears of social distancing meltdown, a big market had to be closed down hours within opening, and hundreds of people queuing outside Harrods waiting peacefully and excitedly to enter, were dispersed… how awful…
This is from the Guardian, and apparently actions taken after photographs of the crowds on social media, and alerts to authorities about the dangers of spreading the corona virus . Did they actually, the citizens I mean, or did some just think to, or was the report an encouragement to the self policing by the masses ? Who knows. It’s all going according to plan, or not …..
All over fifties to have vac-jab first, under fifties wait and have to pay. It does not bother us. We won’t, that’s all.

The BBC better known as the British Bullshitting Corporation.
Recall when Cameron (an 8th-distant(?) cousin of the Queen) was PM?
He stacked the BBC with his mate’s high school cronies
The irony is that the English still pay a TV license to be propagandized every year!
Yay, democracy!!!
Tyson, there are many excellent BBC programs, but the license fees should have been abolished decades ago. For good health I keep western style politics at arms length where I can switch off. This 2020 year is the year the Australia Chinese bridge is being destroyed by loud mouth Australian politicians. Chinese is my second language and Chinese is taught in many schools here. The dragon is doing well, while we are being disconnected. I’m married to a Chinese and understand their mindset … so I am now having to endure sadness of a lost regional positive expansive view along with the harsh reality Australia is losing massive export revenue. This, added to the virus and plandemic looks like purpose fabrication, to what end I hardly dare speak or think about.
Not only but also — video documentary on YT yesterday of the massive big ship de-construction yards in Pakistan. Huge Container ships which ploughed the seas with massive cargoes, huge luxury liners only a couple of years ago, taking tourists word wide – gone.

Peaceful National Assembly elections in Venezuela yesterday. Maduro has just called the opposition to dialog.

The voting was monitored by 1,500 observers and 300 representatives from 34 countries worldwide. Evo Morales visited as well.
The days of sanctions can also now be counted down. Iran is sending a fleet of 10 oil tankers to Venezuela to bridge the oil gap while Venezuela was being destabilized.

This is the man that is at the right hand or left hand of the Trump administration. Ask me if I feel anything for the current logjam in the US?
He is also blathering about Trump giving Jerusalem to the Jews (which to me is equal to Hagia Sophia taken by Erdogan) and closed down 5 friendship type programs with China on the basis that it is soft power propaganda.
The anti-chinese rhetoric is reaching crescendos. I listened this morning to a fellow (not going to tell who it is because his story about alien abductions never stood up for me, although others did), who says that the Chinese are fully ruled by evil aliens. It’s a long step away from the ‘benevolent’ Nordics and the Greys and the Lizzies. OK, I’ve been around for a bit in the untruth of the ‘truth’ community and sure, the Queen may be a lizzie. But good Lord people – what sick propaganda to prepare all types of the western community for war. Fine to make war against the ‘aliens’, then you don’t think that you warring against people that share our planet. This is what is distributed among the ‘patriots’ of a certain kind.
Thing is, they always make mistakes. I wrote to him and told him that I fully expect him to go fight the aliens then, and not the Chinese and to tell me for what would the evil aliens rule China, and not the US and I would need to see at least a few dead aliens before I believe him.
Yeah, I think what is called for, is a redo of early morning devotions after all these aliens :-)
Funny you should say that amarynth
Years ago I heard from somewhere (long before The X-Files) that the US Government had made an agreement with aliens to allow the use of the American people for genetic experiments
I thought at the time that is so outlandish (which is probly why I can remember it) but under the soon-to-be-made mandatory vax – I’m starting to re-appraise, haha!

China has been trailblazing the global trend to explore the viability of digital currency, rolling out an ambitious test of a crypto yuan earlier this year, with pilots existing in four Chinese cities, where transactions to a reported tune of more than 2 billion yuan ($300 million) have already taken place.
https://sputniknews.com/business/202012071081383265-china-to-launch-digital-yuan-giveaway-in-massive-on-the-ground-trial-of-cashless-payment-system/
Odd how different words mean totally different things to different people, Paul.
The Bitcoin White Paper released October 31, 2008 calls Bitcoin “A peer to peer digital CASH system”.
Before pondering what this means, I will admit that I conceived of CASH as being paper currency and metal coins for general circulation……….as opposed to rarities with numismatic value.
The above link says digital yuan…..”cash-LESS-payment system”.
Me think we have to look closer at what is CASH and what is not cash.
For example, I have heard the argument (it may have merit!) that a “Benjamin” or US hundred dollar bill is NOT cash………but a “note” or debt instrument.
In that regard a true Bitcoin IS all equity…and no debt…so, at least in that sense one might imagine that one has ones definitions mixed up…as to what is cash…and what is not cash.
Another thing to ponder is the etymology of “digital”.
Well those are your fingers (digits) which quite naturally gives you base 10.
Next, one of these days soon, the implications of supercharging those numbers of digits to 8 decimals of a true original Bitcoin………or one hundred million satoshis per Bitcoin = 8 decimals. 100,000,000
Count the zeros: 1.00000000
Profoundly new capacities come with this sort of super divisibility which I didn’t even begin to grasp until at least the third year of looking into all of this
Just scratching the surface. It is what makes a newer, vastly more secure, “pay as you go” internet possible:
Micropayments.
Instead of being under the illusion that one is using Google and other internet companies “for free”…..years later we come to realize WE —our data—is the product and “they” have been selling us to their advertisers.
In the New Internet On the Horizon ….you would own all your data and browse without ANY ads.
QUERY: How many of you would part with a micropayment of a fraction of a cent perhaps………..to “surf the web” for 10 minutes or 2 hours………with ZERO ads???
Or continue to let robots like Zuck…..or Dorsey or Bezos………..profile the shit out of you…..for “free”??
NOT FREE! Because “Time is money.”
Besides secure voting…that is just one of the benefits of the Blockchain/Bitcoin invention.
And it does NOT necessarily mean the disappearance of metal coins and paper Benjamins. Coexistence can occur. Although that “cashlessness” (NO Bitcoin???) IS the absolutism of Control the Schwabies and Billy Gates’s have in mind. However…….different forms of money for different uses/applications………… are just as much an option.
How many people know what they want…or even know what the words mean?
It’s time to find out!
Bro, making some deals discretely and quietly with cash has mutual benefits. Myself and those I deal with simply do not want some transactions tracked and traceable, for various reasons. There is a saying that what people don’t know doesn’t hurt them. Government bureaucrats and bankers are among the most obnoxious retarded negative jealous types to be weary of. I want cash to always be available as many people do.
Bro .. “Odd how different words mean totally different things to different people, Paul.
The Bitcoin White Paper released October 31, 2008 calls Bitcoin “A peer to peer digital CASH system”.
This is a major error – a non-trivial error – even before you get to the cash. .
There is no ‘digital’ cash system. The word is an ‘electronic’ cash system secured by ‘digital’ signatures. And these words do not mean different things to different people.
Electronic refers to a state of flow of matter and digital to a method. So, it is “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”
In other words, you are not carrying the data around on a donkey cart, it moves electronically, and you don’t sign with a pen, you sign digitally, i.e., ones and zeros.
People can read for themselves. It is a short and elegant document. It is not so hard – just got to figure out what a few words mean.
https://downloads.coindesk.com/research/whitepapers/bitcoin.pdf
Bro, “implications of supercharging those numbers of digits to 8 decimals of a true original Bitcoin”
Based on what I have written below, the digital (10 system) to the eight reflects a true material = spiritual necessity realized. I will be interested to read in three years time what this means.
I accept amarynth’s correction because she had more time or memory to look at the title….if I had had 30 sec more I would have just gone there:
https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf
“Electronic “it certainly IS….in the title…though digital is used a great deal by everyone discussing the subject so my error is perhaps forgiveable. Perhaps ………..
And digital…….well if it is not in the title anywhere….isn’t everything internet or present generation of computers “digital”???
But yes, words have important meaning and distinct CHOICE of words, when it comes to rigorous minds like that of the inventor of Bitcoin …have tons of meaning …….distinction.
That mean everything pretty quickly or one can get way, way off course.
As most evidently do!
Including myself, initially. The thing is can one “course correct”…..or not????
The principal source of disagreement in this area comes down maybe to amarynth’s rejection of the meaning of Satoshi Nakamoto’s words…….and who that is in real life…as like many in the Crypto “community” they want Crime Coin or Anarchy Coin instead of what he gave the world. That they promptly ALTERED!
It will soon be proven in court, who the inventor is (I mean a year or less I trust) and doubts sown by the emotional needs of people who did not want Bitcoin and screwed it up (as I see she is finally acknowledging with BTC or Bitcoin Core as some call it….A Frankensteined Mess that Keiser still clings to, Sandy. )
Meanwhile: There is a series of videos mostly about 80 or 90 minutes each by that inventor of Bitcoin……….in which not just the TITLE (that too….word by word!) is examined………..but every single sentence is discussed at lenght…..Leaving as little ambiguity as possible, ALABAMA,,,,so there is NO doubt whatsoever what the inventor intended and what Max Keiser…and most of the rest of the “community” got wrong!

Magnum opus credo
Jimi, Blue, and God
40. “THE” Last Day
I might have carried on walking
And turning the wheel forever
After my outburst but I noticed
The skies are filled with smoke
That boy is murdering his brothers
While squatting on the holy mountain,
Yemen is aflame
And on and on.
I was praying a few months ago
And the question: “is this ‘the” Last Day
Popped into my mind
And I said “well, is it Lord?”
I was saying three prayers in a row
And between the second and third
The Most High answered.
I was done the third prayer
Before I realized what had happened.
I started laughing uproariously .
It was just a little tweak in my mind.
One second you don’t know
The next you’re saying
“He did that!” And you think
“How does he do it?”
41. A Point
I don’t know. How he does it that is.
As the saying goes: “He doeth whatsoever he willeth
At his own behest by virtue of his sovereignty.
He shall not be asked of his doings.”
Hmmm…that brings me to a point.
42. Falling
My point, a primal one, is this:
I’ve told Padma Sambhava
I’m renouncing my bodhisattvic vow.
I’m not turning back
My nature is to walk on
Turning the wheel
But when one takes up the pen
In his kingdom it seems
There is more life and power in creation.
So I’m circling around and “shaking”
The hand of the Almighty.
I feel like I went “straight up and straight ahead”
With the souls of those I love
And placed them into
God’s right hand. Amen Brother!
I can fall any where now!
Watch out below! I’m coming down!
I’m falling!
43. Barefoot Servant
A being falling in this space
Has been touched by the
Luminous comet or burning meteorite.
No worries: It is sitting in my heart
Burning brightly, enclosed in light.
After my customary two beers
I had a glass of white wine
A few weeks ago before bed.
I woke up to a piercing white light
Between my eyes and
My awareness expanded to embrace
And accept the comet.
Good God! I don’t get migraines
But it took me a few days
To recover. It was like
The Wrathful Deities “cubed”!
(This is what happens
When you lose your temper!)
Anyway, it got me to thinking:
As my youngest son said to me:
“People need compassion, a kind word,,
When have you ever seen
A successful outcome between people
When you “call them on their shit?”
I know what it’s like Babe!
I want to be your lover
I never wanted to be your boss.
But I’m still flying and
That’s noteworthy, isn’t it?
I have the view Babe,
Remember “All Along the Watchtower”?
“Princes have the view”
(And so do barefoot servants like me.)

Don’t get caught dozing, swap your fear of dying for fear of losing your digital wallet, not worse than Covid19, but better, as the currency wallet is redeemable because it has a unique seed that endures, and can be re-established. That’s what I learned today on the crypto trail for doubters, dozers and disbelievers.
There is life after death, phew, don’t panic Mr Mannering, or anyone. Talk about metaphor..
Dad’s Army https://youtu.be/nR0lOtdvqyg
I’m making light of a serious topic above, but it concerns something of significance that I have been pondering for a couple of years, and the opportunity came to write something, it landed in my lap so to say, the relationship if the individual self, (as seed) and money. If that confuses never mind, it’s the thought that counts. tuppence
Bob Dylan sells entire music catalouge for 300 million…………….maybe at eighty, you can take it with you when you go.
I’ve noticed a similar trend lately, between tv shows, when ads play, and I hear iconic music from my teens shilling adds for Rackutan or the like………..where you spend lots of money then they give you a little pittence back…..then you run off into the night singing…………………..Rocket Man.
Cheers, M
The music should be burried with the author…………..left to be dug up in thousands of years by future archeologists disscussing how it was used in ‘religious’ ceremonies.
Dylan’s early material was directly ripped from the American Folk song book
Regards
He admitted he didn’t like his real early stuff, and was one of the few that recognized his songs were not folk music, but a middle of the road rock songs.
He probably took the move now so as to save the place the worry of having to do it once he’s gone.
Strange – yesterday I posted a quote from the Ragged Trousered Philanthropists :
/moveable-feast-cafe-2020-12-05/#comment-881929
Then today there’s a show on RT about the book – and they discuss the very quote I posted :
https://www.rt.com/shows/renegade-inc/508714-ragged-trousered-philanthropists-novel/
It’s funny how this kind of thing happens quite often – I hadn’t thought about that book in a long time.
Jung called it ‘synchronicity’, that is meaningful events
He went on to suggest it demonstrated how interconnected we all are, what he termed the Collective Unconscious
As we in the so-called Western liberal democracies (what a joke!) are facing permanent house arrest unless we get the jab – we’ll all have to learn the powers of telepathy
Tip: practice with a trusted family member/friend

Looks like-you know the rest.
Tyson,
well I did think of synchronicity but I wasn’t sure if I was right – its so long since I’ve read Jung – I only remember vaguely about the Collective Unconscious and archetypes. I really need to read him again.
On the house arrest front, I am quite impressed by Ivor Cummins videos. . Here he’s analysing data on covid – he quotes a study of over 100 countries showing lockdowns don’t work – and much more He has been trying to get scientists to debate him – but none will take him on. I note they’re very happy to go on tv / radio and make unchallenged pronouncements :
https://youtu.be/3cjgicrA504
He also debunked claims that having had the disease confers no immunity. He says this is simply unscientific – that the t cell memory remains and confers protection, and that the scientists must know this – and therefore must also know they are lying. This is one of the reasons he wants to debate them ( and they don’t want to debate him ? ).
These are his words – not mine ( I have no competence ) but it never made sense to me that having had the disease could not confer protection, but a vaccine would. I like that he uses officially published data, e.g. from WHO, to prove his points I think his videos are worth a look if time allows. I use 1.5 or even 1.75 speed to save time.
If we don’t find a way to counter this covid hysteria and vaccine blackmail, there will be never ending ‘ waves ‘ and new ‘ pandemics ‘ based on ever more PCR testing. House arrest on demand will then become the ‘ new normal ‘ they keep talking about..
Thanks Tyson.
“well I did think of synchronicity but I wasn’t sure if I was right – its so long since I’ve read Jung – I only remember vaguely about the Collective Unconscious and archetypes. I really need to read him again.”
Sure, you need to, we all need it – I do it daily, little piece by piece, to have a counterweight to the predominance of the sensual impressions of the world, while the collective archetypes are leading us unconsciously, waiting to become conscious in individuals.
Jung: “The characteristic that is peculiar to the archetype is that it manifests itself not only psychically-subjectively but also physically-objectively, in other words, it is possible that it can be proved to be both, a psychic inner occurrence and also a physical external one. I regard this phenomenon as an indication of the fact, that the physical and the psychic matrix are identical.”
Atom AND Archetype, The Pauli/Jung-Letters, p. 126
“Now I know from experience, that a constellated – i.e., activated – archetype may not be the cause but is certainly a condition of synchronistic phenomena …”
“… in other words, the archetype forms an image that is both psychological and physical. This of course, is the formula for synchronicity, albeit with the difference that in the case of the latter, the psychological causal chain is accompanied by a physical chain of events with similar meaning.”
ibid. p.167
Mundomaniac,
yes – I have been meaning to look into this for a while – I seem to find so many things I want to read I haven’t gotten round to it. I need to make the effort.
Thank you.

Aliens are in the news …
A.L.F. stands for Alien Life Form or just …
ALF … season 1, episode 1 …

Many are braced for “disclosure”….as consumers….and there are plenty of cottage industry “producers” of mostly competing and contradictory “evidence”. While Governments are mostly mum…..either because there aren’t any aliens OR …if there were…the idea is the people are children, who “couldn’t handle the truth”…..and it must be kept classified or people’s reality would just go to pieces, and you’d have Mass Hysteria—Planet Wide.
Covid, anyone??? LOL.
Which is all getting rather old. But waves of alien interest and apathy alternate ….as life goes on.
New in the last couple of years is this Question on 4 Chan…..which sort of perked up….at least for a few days …. perhaps….millions of people:
“Are we alone? Roswell.”
And the startling reply: “No. Consider the vastness of space.” Q
However, besides the curiosity and eagerness of some inquiring minds….you also have the general warning that the last ditch false flag attempt of the Empire Of Central Banker Control would involve Fake Alien Reporting Fear Based BS.
Some of these things have been played with…..in a Long Game For Mass Mind Control …for a century ..or more.
HG Wells’ War of the Worlds Fake Martian Invasion broadcast over radio …and fooled millions of people for a day or so.
Which could also have had the purpose of hoarding knowledge to preserve a power differential….by making the vast majority reluctant for a very long time to consider any future evidence…..until those controlling it are ready…on their timetable for use of either real………… Or Fake “disclosure”.
Meanwhile, it’ll always get some…or A LOT of “clicks”:

44. It’s All Good
The comet never took me down
And by virtue of my
Picking up the pen
I now ride. If you know where
I’m coming from and find me trustworthy
And love God it’s all good.
Remember only God is god.
All kings are but his servants.
45. Old School
I am of the old school.
I was pushing light before
There was a web. This time,
Eon, eternity, is when all beings
Have been cast into this world together.
The Most High is wonderful at
Working with light—
It’s always good to remember this
When invoking truth. God
Would have us beware of himself
Out of love. Suffice it to say
The Most High is no “wuss!”
When you find yourself on
The sacred Snow White spot,
Or wandering in endless white dunes
Or cowering before Jehovah’s
Great White Throne,
Get up and move
For Christ’s sake!
46. Crawl, Walk, Fly!
Move! Crawl, walk, fly! Move
The last digit of your little finger!
This is your chance to be free!
The nations and the watchers
Will understand too late!
Tick, tock, tick, tock,
We are counting down.
If you have to question,
Ask, argue, look for proofs,
You are late.
47. No Worries
No worries! I’ve been late, in hell,
In the pit, the abyss.
Confess your sins—-it’s archaic–
And good advice. You can’t get to god
By being good, but you
Have to continually try to do better.
God likes civilized behaviour
And serving others:
You have to be honest,
Capable of recognizing truth.
Remember, he is alive, aware.
So swallow your pride,
Pick yourself up and
Step out onto the “highway of diamonds”.
I am a good and reliable witness
And I’m telling you straight—
You were lucky to be born
Into this world, you have your will.
If you have to “dig ditches in your mind”
For forty years to hear God’s call
Hop to it friend!
He pays good wages!
48. Called to Acccount
We are called to account to god
Through truth and he uses light
To manifest it here. Follow the
Name and Beauty of your heart’s desire
But remember: No particular
Brand of unity will triumph.
The Most High was,
Is,and will always be
Sole Sovereign. Worship him. Apprehend his call.
As Jimi would say: “Get out of your grave!”
“Everybody is dancing in the street!”

11:04 EST, your beautiful words truly go to heart. I wondered, who was speaking,
being ready at 11:04 and made the chart. And behold, it was Aquarius’ spirit, being
met by heart/Sun, by Uranus, spirit, rooted parallel to physical letters in a physical
2. house.

The way you speak brings joy to my heart. Thank you Mundanomaniac.
A couple of articles on the background behind trump’s appointments, which I would argue have been a disaster; in a word, Kushner.
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/too-few-of-the-presidents-men/
not much to add here, too much influence by insiders with an agenda.

Christy prepared 30 binders for transition which were tossed in the dumpster on orders from kushner (fairly gossipy article going back a couple of years as to chrisy’s role in prosecution of kushner’s father.)
The kushners just purchased a plot of land on a secured island off coast of FL for $30 mil-that is just the land, no construction as of yet; kushners have done well during trump admin.
Who cares-let them have the plot-sure as hell I have lost it.
Kushner was Trump’s Zio-minder hiding in plain sight
Every US President at least since FDR has had one

My feeble comments go to waste-you would like to make the passive folk “polarised”-on that score I resign.You are Spooks(I won’t in this case resign for that reason,for I have known better Spooks)-My personal underscore is”watch your step”.

Important evidence from Reiner Fuellmich and the German Corona Committee 4 Dec 2020 in discussion with Professor Stefan Hockertz
Thanks Babuska.
I’ve watched two doctors on RT today – I hope others have seen this – I could hardly believe what I was hearing.
One said the vaccine is safe – just the same as the yearly flu vaccine – did she really say that / did I hear right ?
The second dr. I saw was just acting like a smiley happy salesmen – he had nothing to say other than the UK should be very proud ( why ? ) and the vaccine must be safe or the licensing authorities wouldn’t allow it, “… I’m very confident.. “. That was it / the extent of his expertise. Anybody randomly selected off the street could have provided that contribution.
Matt Hancock ( health minister ) was even pretending to cry – such was his emotion and joy as he watched an old man being vaccinated – these people have no shame. He urged everyone to take the vaccine ‘ ..for your country..’ The RT UK newscast was like a party showing happy people celebrating being vaccinated.
I hope others have seen these news items and can confirm – because I can’t quite believe what I saw.
Now warnings of a third wave. No doubt the fourth won’t be far behind. Then recurring waves / ( vaccines ) – for ever ?
A group of doctors from all over the world warn the covid vaccine is not safe and should not be taken :

I note the doctors in this film and people like Ivor Cummins present the science and explain their case logically. The vaccine pushers / ‘ we’re all doomed ‘ crowd, ignore science – they don’t bother to make their case – we’re just told what to believe and threatened with escalating fines / house arrest / military on the streets. The PCR test – thoroughly discredited – continues to produce headline grabbing numbers.
What kind of science is it when relevantly and eminently qualified scientists are required to accept a narrative that doesn’t make sense to them and are not allowed to ask questions / point out error / are denied a voice ? Cummins has described it as anti-science.
sandinED,
A response to your posts and the “vaccines for ever” question, I will think about more and write something in the new Cafe.
