Whether the containment measures were failed policies implemented by cowardly imbeciles, or were intended to cause precisely the deleterious outcomes they caused, the answer is the same:
United noncompliance.
These clowns are obsolete. We don't need them, we don't need to listen to them, and we never did.
I agree with you as far as the principle goes, but how do we not comply when the transport of fossil fuels is severely restricted and we can’t buy gas because of resulting shortages? Are we counting on trucker noncompliance? Refinery noncompliance?
Thank you, Trav86. We are being locked-down economically. And this is the build-up to an explosion, I am sure of it. Doesn't it seem so to you? Meanwhile - the clock is ticking on the grain crisis in Ukraine. The famine threat is real and swiftly approaching. Don't know about you, but I'm stockpiling staples like crazy (but then I'm an old prepper from way back). Keep your powder dry, friends.
They are doing their best to take it from us, aren't they? That young hero in Indiana not only saved untold lives, he struck a blow for 2A. Good man. And can you believe it, the Dems hated it. They'd rather more had died. That is one sick group of people.
There's 2 bills in the House one about "assault" rifles. You do realize they're just regular rifles with pistol grips added, right? The second one is an outright gun ban....removing the 2nd Ammendment. I can't remember the numbers right now. Please look them up and read. Write your Representative asking them to vote, "No" if you want to keep your rights.
I think that would be the tipping point. We have seen in history again and again what happens when people allow their guns to be taken away. I think asking my true-blue California "Representatives" to vote against the far left is wasting my breath, but yes, I'll do it. I'm pretty confident this one won't pass. Politicians aren't going to risk losing the goodwill of the people to that extent. They want to stay in office.
Speaking of Prohibition - have you noticed what has not gone up in price? Liquor. They want us to drink = less effective, more compliant. They learned from the USSR, where cheap vodka flowed like water to keep the people quiet.
I've also noticed that the chip aisle at the grocery store is always FULLY stocked, so no supply chain issue there.....yay for fat unhealthy (drunk) americans...
Oh, the junk food will still be around, no worries. In our country at least, malnutrition will be the greater threat than actual starvation. People will be eating cheap crap to get by. It's already happening.
Broadly, prohibition was a "progressive" project - and it's earlier 19C appearance the "Temperance Movement" has it roots in New England Puritanism. That's why that history is not taught in public schools; most millennials are totally ignorant that the 18th Amendment banned sale of alcohol ... and then we go on to the mass poisoning by the FedGov of illegal alcohols supplies ... (perhaps noted in the link above).
Temperance was an excuse. What they wanted to do was break farmers from the use of alcohol to fuel their tractors. After a generation had lost that knowledge and it was driven well underground, it was OK for everyone to drink again.
To add: We already had 'alternative' fuel sources (among other things) in the early 20th century. The prohibitions of alcohol and hemp kept two major rivals of oil and it's dependents (like large scale industrial farming) out of play and permanently relegated to naughty 'drug use'.
To quote the “guttersnipe” Eliza Doolittle: “Words, words, words; I’m so sick of words,” it seems time to move forward in some way - but how? Unless it is banded-together local resistance in a gentle, conscientious objection, g’rila wfare style mode, then leaders need to emerge and thoughtfully, carefully move resistance forward. If the gmint is truly “obsolete,” then chances of effecting change are improved. The secret and necessary weapon is underpinning by prayer and fasting. Remember Lepanto.
Only a military coupe can end this, which would be hell on earth. Would need the soldiers to create a new military hierarchy while enlisted. Then storm the capital and seize power. A real fucking insurrection. Sentence every sitting politician to death by firing squad, live streamed and broadcast across the world. Then start from scratch, hold national elections to replace the government as the constitutional republic it was founded to be.
Hope and hearing are the last things to go. I am likely wrong, but it strikes me there is but one chance militarily - and yes, it would be hell on earth. So it would have to be well done - and I cannot imagine it happening. But one never knows.
The more we know, the more we realize how little we know: black hats / white hats?? Who are they? Do we really know? Do we really know who the enemy is? This has been a brilliant operation so far, attacked on all fronts.
I know many will not accept it (and many do) but this is a fight against pure evil and we need the weaponry against evil. Prayer, fasting. I know I am right about this. Been trucking along for many decades now.
Not only a war but also a draft. Military recruitment is plummeting and for good reason, who wants to voluntarily risk their life to defend childhood transsexuals, collective racial guilt, and never ending neocon war-mongering? Not many for sure, even leftists aren't this stupid.
If they really plan to use the military to further their agenda then they'll have no choice but to bring back the draft. Those with teenagers (like me) might want to think about what this could mean and prepare accordingly.
It will mean leaving the country for me and mine. This government has lost all authority to send young men to die, and as I’ve grown older I’m learning never should have had it. They use our young men like pawns on a risk board for there illegal, unconstitutional neocon follies. Ukraine is just the latest, and I’m sure we are getting close to having “boots on the ground” there, because “democracy”. Fuck that, these chicken hawks can eat shit and die before I let them take one of my boys off to war.
Your idea of leaving the country has great merit; I hope that doesn't become necessary. My son is still draft age, but will employ his dual citizenship, if needed.
It's not as though you'll be moving to paradise, but the lesser of two evils may be acceptable in this case. Southeast Asia has possibilities, as do several Latin American countries. Obviously, Canada is now off the list. Soon, only the wealthy will be comfortable in Europe. If you have family ties somewhere, investigate them. For those not facing the draft, self-reliant communities should be receiving your attention -- or at least start building networks in your own town. Localization is the antidote to big government.
Bandit, I'm looking into a place on the west (Pacific) coast of Baja. Only a little touristy - fishing, seafood and whale watching are the industries, as well as a vast tomato crop. Beautiful, clean beaches, perfect weather, and still cheap. Now if we can just get down there this winter and check it out. Worried about lockdowns an' shit.
Draft may not be an option. Putting weapons in the handsof potential insurrectionists can be dangerous for extant authorities. One of the reasons the Vietnam War ended was the widespread fragging of enthusiastic second lieutenants.
I agree as soldiers that are not motivated by duty and honor are a threat to the regime. But what other choice do they have at this point? People join the military to defend the stars and stripes, not the UN or transgender flag.
I expect we'll start seeing trial balloons being floated about a draft in a year or two, unless things radically change in the military top brass.
People with means don’t want their kids going into the military, much less endless war and possible death, and rich people vote with their money and influence. That’s why there is no draft. The Vietnam War protests were due to the draft. It was abolished after that. So now we have a poverty draft where the less fortunate are able to find employment so to speak and now no one protests the forever wars because we don’t even get shown the bodies anymore. They will use AI before they will institute a draft and have the spotlight on their nefarious deeds. Which might be the worst thing of all.
About 25% of the army will be separated for failure to either have vaccinated or received the second shot. Considered in the context of the significant, extreme drop in recruitment, the loss of many, many career soldiers - the country is not only severely at risk regarding military defense, but also economically, energy-wise and health-wise being totally drained. The USA is at its most vulnerable - essentially presided over by a president with an obvious and fulminant dementia and a clown car cabinet.
No Jeff. No way the Regime can afford to draft. Their apparent plan is to reduce the active and reserves to a skeleton force that they believe is either loyal to them or too small weak ineffectual to pose a threat.
We have to remember that we are ruled by a Criminal Cartel made up of factions with shared goals but also conflicting interests.
So, for example, the Pentagon MIC has an interest in unending $700 billion budgets. As long as the $ keep flowing to them they will put up w a severe reduction in force size (especially since they mostly believe the hype that wars will be won by standoff weapons and robots). The DC Uniparty primary interest is staying in power, so they gladly vote billions to the MIC but want every patriot purged. The military they want is a kind of federal police w military grade weapons who will crush dissent. Draft? Not even a chance.
That is the next goal, partly to cover up the destruction they've caused. They already provoked Russia, now Nancy is deadset to provoke China. That's called lose-lose.
The DOD didn't spend 20 years patenting and developing this weapon so that 99/100 users would be unaffected. Everyone who took the actual jab is severely affected or will be. Lots of people got a placebo. Some lots have 0 reported side effects. That's good.
From my perspective, they already started a war on the American people. The banksters and bureaucrats have weaponized the federal government and many state governments against the people and they have a lot of fellow travelers. The system feeds a lot of rice bowls.
Didn’t they already? Ukraine? But El Gato is right-the climate war is next-see new announcement from FJB administration about executive action on climate….
We used to get our work jobs in folders as work got busy they started to prioritize the work by putting a red sticker on hot jobs. One sticker, two sticker, three…it became such a joke that they would just cover the folders in red stickers. Thinking back I was partly to blame, I didn’t know how to say no. Live and learn.
This country was founded during an emergency. There are absolutely ***No**** "Emergency Powers" granted by any of the three Constitutions.
Full stop. Dot at the end.
The Kitten is correct once again.
And. We the People are back.
The issue is, the vast majority of Americans allowed themselves to be Shanghai'd into accepting a foreign status ("U.S Citizen," which is defined as a Puerto Rican, no offense to the Good/Bad Cat, or "citizen of the United States" which is defined as a Municipal District slave).
Americans are those born within the 50 physically-defined states, that don't accept conflicting allegiances (or that temporarily are serving in the Crown's foreign service, i.e. the "U.S. Military" or Federal Civil Service, or as a dependent, asylum seeker, or welfare recipient).
Americans...well, we aren't anyone's "employees" (the words "citizen" and "employee" mean the same thing).
You can't be "born a citizen." Babies can't be employees. You are born a "national" of whatever country you come forth into.
And, thanks to the "pubic fool system," people are not taught that there are in fact three Constitutions:
Each one is a service contract for a branch of our subcontractor "government service providers"
1) The Constitution for the united States of America (American Federal subcontractor, ratified 1787, in abeyance since March 28th 1861)
2) The Constitution of the United States of American (Ratified 1789, British Territorial subcontractor, responsible for Territories, sea jurisdiction and navigable inland waterways, based in Puerto Rico, jurisdiction Territorial states such as PR, Guarm, Northern Marianas Islands, etc.)
3) The Constitution of the United States (Ratified 1790, Roman Municipal jurisdiction, i.e. the "Nation" of The City of Columbia/Astarte/Ashtoreth, aka "District of Columbia")
The Constitutions can (and technically have) go away tomorrow, and the guarantees of Americans don't go anywhere. However, since all "U.S. Citizens" and "citizens of the United States" are creations of these service contracts...they become rootless, stateless vagabonds.
So, might be a good idea to claim and publish your status as an American. And stop allowing others to define you as their employees.
Oh, and instead of this insipid bs regarding "secession," how about you just kick out the troublemaker? The "District of Columbia" has violated its terms of existence. The solution is "Involuntary Retrocession."
Virginia already took back their portion in the 1840's. Maryland can do the same.
The Chicoms are drooling at the prospect of the 50 states fragmenting. There's no need. All 50 are on good terms. Only a few foreign troublemakers trying to stir shit.
Well I for one dont know any of these statuses but I love the idea of kicking out DC and any Federal institution. Saving. I obviously have a lot to learn, so thank you.
It is very simple, really. Are you an American (born in one of the 50 physically-dlefined states comprising The United States of America, note the Capitalization on the definite article), or a United Statesian (defined by the 14th Amendment to the Scottish commercial charter/doppelganger called "the Constitution of the United States (Incorporated)" that was fraudulently created in 1868)?
Anything "passed" by the "United States Congress" has applicability only within "their" nation: which is defined explicitly by "their" employee code ("U.S. Code"). For instance, the definition of "United States" and "State" can easily be found in 26 USC 7701: it is "the District of Columbia." That's it.
Or, the much vaunted "Commerce clause" pertaining to "interstate commerce." They never stipulate which "states" they are referring to, and prefer to let people assume.
But, reading 18 USC 922, it can be seen that "interstate commerce" means:
"Commerce" (trade between two or more incorporated entites, which eliminates men and women right off the bat) between, into, or out of either DC or Puerto Rico. Nothing else.
And, I can hear the palpable fear underlying your humor.
Let's look at "your income taxes."
If you are engaged in a Federally-connected trade or business (defined explicitly and exclusively as the functions of a public office and nothing else in 26 USC 7701), then by all means, do not stop paying.
The problem arises because -everyone- claiming to be a "U.S. Employee" (Citizen/citizen) was "defined without their knowledge/consent" as an "office holder." Which means that, although it is fraud by omission, and is therefore void, "they" will still use threat, duress, coercion, and duress to prey upon you.
Just a for instance, the knee-jerk reaction of most people, when confronted by a "legal" situation, is to "retain an attorney."
At that point, it is already game over. Only thing that is left is to determine how badly you will be screwed. A "BAR Attorney" is a Squire of the British Crown (Inns of Court of The City of London, which is an independent City State of the same ilk as DC and Vatican City). They can -only- "re-present" British subjects.
Meaning if you retain one, you are tacitly admitting to being a Brit, a "resident" (one who is residual, a foreign worker temporarily here to provide services for Americans).
Americans have all their Constitutional Guarantees (no such thing as "Constitutional Rights," that's another common mis-nomer).
U.S. Citizens have privileges granted conditionally by their Employers, and their King/Queen.
citizens of the United States have very limited privileges granted by their owner the Pontiff of Rome. They are after all "Civil Servants" (voluntary slaves, even if they are not told of their slave status). They are expected to know.
You see, it is all "legal" because it is presumed to be "voluntary."
It is in no way "lawful," however. But it does not change until you change, and make it clear what your choice is.
Returning to the issue of "Income Tax," it is actually illegal to claim to be a taxpayer unless you can legitimately claim that status (meaning you are in the Federal Civil Service, foreign service/military, or a dependent of same). You can be prosecuted under 18 USC 911 and 912 (falsely claiming to be a U.S. Citizen and a U.S. Officer respectively). Filling out a 1040 (bond) form without actually being a taxpayer is committing perjury. But of course they never tell you this.
Regarding "rebellion," there is no need. They are the ones in rebellion against their service contracts. But up until a few years ago, there was no one to call them out. Since a U.S. Citizen has no standing to complain about their employer, there was no way to enforce anything. They have carte blanche to imprison, or even kill their fellow U.S. employees (re: Waco, Ruby Ridge, Jan 6th, etc.) Perfectly legal.
But the Principals (American People) are back, and more are returning every day. And we can (and are) enforcing the service obligations of our wayward hired help. They have been given a Notice to Vacate, unless they course correct immediately.
Violence is what they are hoping for, or other malarkey such as the "Second Declaration of Independence" (the height of foolishness, since that would immediately void the original, and still fully functional Unanimous Declaration of 1776).
And so it really comes down to the old rub: "Nosce te ipsum." Or "Know thyself" in English. Return to yourself, an American, and reclaim your birthright. It is all there waiting.
Depends. Are they violent white right-wing extremists as the canadian truck-clots, or peacefully protesting poc-clots like the BLM rallies of yesteryear?
Well, that level of information won't be covered, of course, because this is a confidential conversation with your doctor, who will privately ask if you have firearms in your home, of course. Per CDC guidelines.
Our governor in the state of WA has had emergency powers for over 870 days. Earlier this month, he quietly extended a PERMANENT vax mandate for all government workers - FULLY vaxed, no exemptions - as of July 2023. There is even talk of reinstating indoor masking. Many people here think he is doing a great job, which I just don’t understand.🙄😔😡
Fellow Inslee captive here. He is a great picture of what Gato is illuminating in this stack. All medical workers and patients must also be masked. I went to the dentist recently. They would not let me in the door without a mask. I canceled and left. No more masking and never vaxxed here.
And his environmental policies are insane. Our beautiful state is being wrecked with idiocy.
My husband and I watch this and wait. We have been in grass roots meetings that seem to be pointless. But it’s something. I look at the candidates coming up in both parties in this state with little hope. We are looking for a way forward. None seen yet.
The rnc and dnc are both bought and paid for. Voters voices are active but unheard. This will be a movement of civil disobedience.
How does a dentist work on a patient that has a mask on? Since the patient must be unmasked to work on his teeth and gums this shows how ridiculous this has become. The dentist and staff being masked are safe from the patient if masks work, if they don't then WHY?
Yes. It’s all theater. We are all supposed to simply comply. They don’t actually care if we believe the masks or vaccines work. It’s all about obedience. We MUST stop complying. My husband and I made a pact. We will never be vaxxed or masked to simply comply.
This will be more difficult in this state as time goes along. We see the next step is not about science or even family or community support. We are just supposed to do as we are told. Inslee must love China. He is a mini xi from where I stand. It will go full on orders with no sugar coating. If we don’t stand up now it’s all lost. It’s time to get real about the place this takes us. Be free. Refuse to comply.
My wife and I have the same pact. We are fortunate to live in conservative county in a purple state having moved several years ago from a county becoming woke/left. Our current county has had only 51 so called coof deaths since the beginning of the plandemic, most all from nursing homes and everyone beyond the 1st 12 being during the times he jabs were available.
I really believe we are developing a parallel economy divided on the lines of the compliant vs the non-compliant to the tyranny that is being pushed on us. That said, I had a conversation with a good friend last night who talked about the numbers of left leaning clients and one dedicated democrat relative who have been totally red pilled by the tyranny, and the absurdity of the current regime running this country. The great reset has spawned a Great Awakening. We are making progress and there is hope if we keep grinding.
I agree there is always hope. But this is a leaderless rebellion. People need leaders. We need hero’s. They are out there. But it difficult to find them and know who to trust. ask the J 6 crew.
Once awakened people must act free to be free. I believe this movement will grow organically over time. As trust in the state diminishes. it’s never been more important to take the risk of living free. Under duress. We have to agree to discomfort, inconvenience and we must prepare.
It’s going to get scary and weird as the power state pushes the people to see what we will tolerate. WILL AMERICANS have the backbone to say no? Remains to be seen.
I think we'll see the demographics continue to shift, at an increasingly quicker tempo. People will be almost forced to choose between states of blue or red (God help those stuck in the purple). Balkanization may be our best option, as civil wars are always the worst. Sooooo much depends on the midterms.
Ever wonder why the cities turn blue? I have a theory: people in cities know that they are dependent on a complex infrastructure that they cannot comprehend, much less control. So they want someone to tell them "Don't worry, we'll take care of you." So that's what the dems say, while the GOP message is self-reliance. (Or at least used to be.)
So they drink the kool-aid and vote blue, hoping the promises will be kept. Of course they cannot; nobody can keep such a promise because the only way complex systems work is through the combined efforts of many thousands (or millions) of individuals each working in their own informed self interest. This is the lesson of Adam Smith.
Maybe it's the "doing something is better than nothing" fallacy.
They just claim that masking and jabs have prevented mass American extinction, and people are grateful for the tyranny instead of laughing hysterically.
Hopefully any effected workers sue the governor. There are no licensed products available in the US, and it is illegal to mandate EUA products. His mandate is in conflict with EUA rules, because the companies refuse to make products they are liable for. They *might* start producing them when they can get it on the childhood schedule and get a different liability classification, but if they don't, I guarantee, they will never, ever make a non-EUA product for the public. I think they might have to make some available to the military for this reason. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/military-covid-vaccine-mandate-violates-law-pl/
I just think "suing" is part of the problem, don't you?
MLK didn't win until people refused to comply with the injustice. And the beatings, dog maulings (sorry, cat scratchings!), clubbings, hosings, and arrests eventually flipped the script.
No one cared when Black folks were getting beaten, but it is valuable for the historical record to shed light on the depravity of the system, and how laws can be unethical, unjust, and still enforced by immoral actors. Leaders are killed when they reach class consciousness, and realize that the enemy is the system that is crushing everyone, regardless of race, religion, identity or ideology. King was killed for planning the Poor People's March, which was planning to go to congress and occupy it until they changed their laws. They couldn't let that happen. At this point, a number of remedies are needed. Non-compliance, but also legal protections. But the oligarchic system at this point is so compromised by $$$ that I'm not sure there is much left to redeem.
yup, they yapped him too. MLK also had tried to stick with US Civil Rights issues, but became critical of Vietnam, which also had a broader appeal, being that the war was unpopular and killing so many young men. Plus RFK ran afoul of the mob/mafia types that his dad used to get JFK elected when he started cracking down on organized crime. It's crazy how common political assassinations were in the US past. Reagan was shot only 40 years ago. Wild.
That POS needs to hang. WA was a wonderful and beautiful state once, one I knew and loved well. I can't bear to cross its borders these days. Same is true of Oregon.
Self-separation is speeding up. My wife and I left CA 12 years ago for Texas.
The decision was hard to make, but we've NEVER regretted it. Neither will you or anyone else. Two months ago I returned to CA for my dad's funeral, the 2 dozen homeless encampments in open, public view stunned me.
Don't put up with their garbage and tyranny anymore.
We were there in May of '15. It was pretty, clear, and sunny. (Not clear enough to see Mt. Rainier, though. 😞) Everything I'd always heard it wasn't. You even have deciduous trees! My cousins always complained that there was nothing but pines.
The only time I ever lived outside of Hawai'i growing up was a year I spent on my uncle's farm in Woodenville (now a very moneyed small town, outside of Olympia). I have family in the San Juans, my Mom lived in Vancouver across the bridge from Portland (ugh!) and my father lived for years in Seattle, which was a glorious city back then. How he would hate to see what it has become. Washington is still gorgeous, but its politics are just fugly.
Unsurprisingly from my perspective (as I’ve done this particular graph about a million times), total hospital utilization has remained flat the entire pandemic, regardless of how many covid patients are in the hospital. We do see a slight rise last year, that’s when Jay Inslee mandated jabs for state workers (including healthcare workers) and our total healthcare capacity fell. (That’s what you do in a healthcare crisis, right? Fire nurses?)
Drill in further and we can get this comparison:
According to the state of Washington, we have almost TRIPLE the covid patients this year as we did last year. (Also, please note the nearly 5,000 bed DROP in our capacity!) So what changed between 2020 & 2021, where we see seasonality followed almost 100%, and 2022, when the virus doesn’t clear out of the north?
What I need is conclusive, simple data/proof to show my vaccine-loving friends that the unvaxxed are NOT more likely to contract and spread covid, and do not suffer more severe symptoms.
Inslee sent me into early retirement (long-time, highly-esteemed substitute teacher here for a district that would rather use office workers as subs than admit they need me), and my friends shrug their shoulders and say I made a choice (therefore not TRUE discrimination), and lament that there is nothing they can do. In a way, I feel the same; what can I realistically do to create meaningful and lasting change? Western WA just seems lost to me.
Recently I detailed how King County was moving their goalposts to hide fading vaccine efficacy, disappearing almost all of the actual data on the site and only showing ‘age and time adjusted’ estimations based on OTHER estimations of vaccine uptake.
That brings us, at long last, to Snohomish County. For months they have been breaking down data between vaccinated and unvaccinated cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. It was one of the only places left that I could be confident in the numbers because they were easily available. Last month’s vaccine efficacy chart looked like this (data through December):
The data was clearly showing the protection granted by the jab faded quickly, which tracked with nearly everywhere else around the world. I looked forward to the new report being released and seeing what the new numbers were.
Well, the report is out, and guess what we don’t see inside? Not only have they removed the vaccine efficacy charts, THEY HAVE REMOVED EVERY PIECE OF DATA RELATED TO THE BREAKDOWN OF CASES, HOSPTAILIZATIONS, AND DEATHS. All of it. Gone.
Because many think they are part of the tribe of cool, trendy folk nobly sacrificing comfort and convenience (and autonomy) for the sake of the holy gods of “science.”
I don’t know about that. I think they actually believe that Inslee is providing a safer state. When I tell friends that people in other states don’t live as we do (trying to point out that WE don’t need to live this way either), they smile and say they know, and that they are always happy to return home (where it’s safe).🙄
This was all well known by the summer / early fall of 2020 yet people continued to comply for the next 1.5 years. Why? Conformity. That's the attack vector.
Yes and fear drives conformity. We are ruled by what we fear. Engage in personally difficult and challenging endeavor - learn to kill the fear. Losing fear is freedom. Except for that built in physiological fear that serves our survival and evolution of course! Trust ourselves, trust rational fear and kill irrational fear.
So what I am gathering in my dull , first cup of coffee mind is: kill more people & prevent more births today to save people tomorrow when there are fewer people to save. I’m sure that will make more sense after the second cuppa.
The scamdemic took many "normies" off guard.....and many were incredulous in response to us real theorists...They would say things like "How could they pull of a conspiracy like that!?" "Who benefits?" "The just want to help us not die!"
I pray that enough in that lazy middle have awoken...
All the sheep (well, some are now awake) are nicely corralled now and recorded. Then there are those who are resistant, independent, resolute, strong, seeking deeper courage. And they, too, are nicely recorded. The separation, the gulf, is very evident. Stage One complete. Now what? What are the plans for the strong? There is always a surprise up evil sleevies. We have been ambushed once …
Local news had some self appointed expert Karen Statist pleading for us all to wear masks ( again) in Philadelphia. I began flipping the bird at the tv. Effective I know. It’s why I rarely turn on the boob tube. I suffer uncontrollable middle fingeritis. I’m an authority on this disorder. 😜
Whether the containment measures were failed policies implemented by cowardly imbeciles, or were intended to cause precisely the deleterious outcomes they caused, the answer is the same:
United noncompliance.
These clowns are obsolete. We don't need them, we don't need to listen to them, and we never did.
I agree with you as far as the principle goes, but how do we not comply when the transport of fossil fuels is severely restricted and we can’t buy gas because of resulting shortages? Are we counting on trucker noncompliance? Refinery noncompliance?
Thank you, Trav86. We are being locked-down economically. And this is the build-up to an explosion, I am sure of it. Doesn't it seem so to you? Meanwhile - the clock is ticking on the grain crisis in Ukraine. The famine threat is real and swiftly approaching. Don't know about you, but I'm stockpiling staples like crazy (but then I'm an old prepper from way back). Keep your powder dry, friends.
and your staples!
If we're allowed to have the powder that needs kept dry.
They are doing their best to take it from us, aren't they? That young hero in Indiana not only saved untold lives, he struck a blow for 2A. Good man. And can you believe it, the Dems hated it. They'd rather more had died. That is one sick group of people.
There's 2 bills in the House one about "assault" rifles. You do realize they're just regular rifles with pistol grips added, right? The second one is an outright gun ban....removing the 2nd Ammendment. I can't remember the numbers right now. Please look them up and read. Write your Representative asking them to vote, "No" if you want to keep your rights.
I think that would be the tipping point. We have seen in history again and again what happens when people allow their guns to be taken away. I think asking my true-blue California "Representatives" to vote against the far left is wasting my breath, but yes, I'll do it. I'm pretty confident this one won't pass. Politicians aren't going to risk losing the goodwill of the people to that extent. They want to stay in office.
Just remember, when guns are criminalized, only criminals will have guns.
Exactly so.
Yes, we are and ultimately have to.
Coronamania has resembled Prohibition.
https://markoshinskie8de.substack.com/p/coronamania-prohibition-and-the-folly
Speaking of Prohibition - have you noticed what has not gone up in price? Liquor. They want us to drink = less effective, more compliant. They learned from the USSR, where cheap vodka flowed like water to keep the people quiet.
I've also noticed that the chip aisle at the grocery store is always FULLY stocked, so no supply chain issue there.....yay for fat unhealthy (drunk) americans...
Oh, the junk food will still be around, no worries. In our country at least, malnutrition will be the greater threat than actual starvation. People will be eating cheap crap to get by. It's already happening.
The tsarist state prohibited the sale of vodka during WWI, and where did that get them? No doubt the Bolsheviks learned from that.
That thought crossed my mind several times. I also think the group rabid about prohibition have vast similarities to those push this CoVid garbage.
Broadly, prohibition was a "progressive" project - and it's earlier 19C appearance the "Temperance Movement" has it roots in New England Puritanism. That's why that history is not taught in public schools; most millennials are totally ignorant that the 18th Amendment banned sale of alcohol ... and then we go on to the mass poisoning by the FedGov of illegal alcohols supplies ... (perhaps noted in the link above).
Temperance was an excuse. What they wanted to do was break farmers from the use of alcohol to fuel their tractors. After a generation had lost that knowledge and it was driven well underground, it was OK for everyone to drink again.
To add: We already had 'alternative' fuel sources (among other things) in the early 20th century. The prohibitions of alcohol and hemp kept two major rivals of oil and it's dependents (like large scale industrial farming) out of play and permanently relegated to naughty 'drug use'.
Thank you, CB. Love it when a new/different perspective comes into view!
Thanks Mr. Carter!
There's a PRICE for this. I hope everyone is aware of that.
We must pay it.
Many others will not.
I believe in us!
To quote the “guttersnipe” Eliza Doolittle: “Words, words, words; I’m so sick of words,” it seems time to move forward in some way - but how? Unless it is banded-together local resistance in a gentle, conscientious objection, g’rila wfare style mode, then leaders need to emerge and thoughtfully, carefully move resistance forward. If the gmint is truly “obsolete,” then chances of effecting change are improved. The secret and necessary weapon is underpinning by prayer and fasting. Remember Lepanto.
Only a military coupe can end this, which would be hell on earth. Would need the soldiers to create a new military hierarchy while enlisted. Then storm the capital and seize power. A real fucking insurrection. Sentence every sitting politician to death by firing squad, live streamed and broadcast across the world. Then start from scratch, hold national elections to replace the government as the constitutional republic it was founded to be.
Hope and hearing are the last things to go. I am likely wrong, but it strikes me there is but one chance militarily - and yes, it would be hell on earth. So it would have to be well done - and I cannot imagine it happening. But one never knows.
The more we know, the more we realize how little we know: black hats / white hats?? Who are they? Do we really know? Do we really know who the enemy is? This has been a brilliant operation so far, attacked on all fronts.
I know many will not accept it (and many do) but this is a fight against pure evil and we need the weaponry against evil. Prayer, fasting. I know I am right about this. Been trucking along for many decades now.
Can we make it pay per view and cut into the debt too?
Good one!
Not only a war but also a draft. Military recruitment is plummeting and for good reason, who wants to voluntarily risk their life to defend childhood transsexuals, collective racial guilt, and never ending neocon war-mongering? Not many for sure, even leftists aren't this stupid.
If they really plan to use the military to further their agenda then they'll have no choice but to bring back the draft. Those with teenagers (like me) might want to think about what this could mean and prepare accordingly.
It will mean leaving the country for me and mine. This government has lost all authority to send young men to die, and as I’ve grown older I’m learning never should have had it. They use our young men like pawns on a risk board for there illegal, unconstitutional neocon follies. Ukraine is just the latest, and I’m sure we are getting close to having “boots on the ground” there, because “democracy”. Fuck that, these chicken hawks can eat shit and die before I let them take one of my boys off to war.
I'll go before I let my daughter. But only if I get to stand behind Hunter, Joe & Jill's daughter, and the Kerry kids.
As former CIA analyst Philip Giraldi notes, we already have boots on the ground in Ukraine; see his latest here, or search for him on facebook:
https://www.unz.com/author/philip-giraldi/
Your idea of leaving the country has great merit; I hope that doesn't become necessary. My son is still draft age, but will employ his dual citizenship, if needed.
Where to go?? I'm on agree ment.
It's not as though you'll be moving to paradise, but the lesser of two evils may be acceptable in this case. Southeast Asia has possibilities, as do several Latin American countries. Obviously, Canada is now off the list. Soon, only the wealthy will be comfortable in Europe. If you have family ties somewhere, investigate them. For those not facing the draft, self-reliant communities should be receiving your attention -- or at least start building networks in your own town. Localization is the antidote to big government.
Thanks for the ideas.
Well, don't go to Canada! From things I've read there's lots fleeing to Mexico, mostly from Kalifornia.
Bandit, I'm looking into a place on the west (Pacific) coast of Baja. Only a little touristy - fishing, seafood and whale watching are the industries, as well as a vast tomato crop. Beautiful, clean beaches, perfect weather, and still cheap. Now if we can just get down there this winter and check it out. Worried about lockdowns an' shit.
Good for you, Jim!!
Draft may not be an option. Putting weapons in the handsof potential insurrectionists can be dangerous for extant authorities. One of the reasons the Vietnam War ended was the widespread fragging of enthusiastic second lieutenants.
I agree as soldiers that are not motivated by duty and honor are a threat to the regime. But what other choice do they have at this point? People join the military to defend the stars and stripes, not the UN or transgender flag.
I expect we'll start seeing trial balloons being floated about a draft in a year or two, unless things radically change in the military top brass.
People with means don’t want their kids going into the military, much less endless war and possible death, and rich people vote with their money and influence. That’s why there is no draft. The Vietnam War protests were due to the draft. It was abolished after that. So now we have a poverty draft where the less fortunate are able to find employment so to speak and now no one protests the forever wars because we don’t even get shown the bodies anymore. They will use AI before they will institute a draft and have the spotlight on their nefarious deeds. Which might be the worst thing of all.
I read an article on it this morning, discussing the idea that they may restart the draft. They could send some of these mass shooters.
They are already employed by the various three letter intell agencies.
About 25% of the army will be separated for failure to either have vaccinated or received the second shot. Considered in the context of the significant, extreme drop in recruitment, the loss of many, many career soldiers - the country is not only severely at risk regarding military defense, but also economically, energy-wise and health-wise being totally drained. The USA is at its most vulnerable - essentially presided over by a president with an obvious and fulminant dementia and a clown car cabinet.
No armed forces, the easier for Chiii-na to move in and finish taking over.
No Jeff. No way the Regime can afford to draft. Their apparent plan is to reduce the active and reserves to a skeleton force that they believe is either loyal to them or too small weak ineffectual to pose a threat.
We have to remember that we are ruled by a Criminal Cartel made up of factions with shared goals but also conflicting interests.
So, for example, the Pentagon MIC has an interest in unending $700 billion budgets. As long as the $ keep flowing to them they will put up w a severe reduction in force size (especially since they mostly believe the hype that wars will be won by standoff weapons and robots). The DC Uniparty primary interest is staying in power, so they gladly vote billions to the MIC but want every patriot purged. The military they want is a kind of federal police w military grade weapons who will crush dissent. Draft? Not even a chance.
Also who wants to join where they are de facto guinea pigs for whatever the next vax ahem bioweapon.
That is the next goal, partly to cover up the destruction they've caused. They already provoked Russia, now Nancy is deadset to provoke China. That's called lose-lose.
And to cover up deliberate destruction of the grid from w/in. They’ll deflect to blame China or Russia
The DOD didn't spend 20 years patenting and developing this weapon so that 99/100 users would be unaffected. Everyone who took the actual jab is severely affected or will be. Lots of people got a placebo. Some lots have 0 reported side effects. That's good.
And that is 1 in 5000 doses, not patients.
Probably underestimating by a factor of 50.
From my perspective, they already started a war on the American people. The banksters and bureaucrats have weaponized the federal government and many state governments against the people and they have a lot of fellow travelers. The system feeds a lot of rice bowls.
Didn’t they already? Ukraine? But El Gato is right-the climate war is next-see new announcement from FJB administration about executive action on climate….
Victor Davis Hansen recently opined that when everyone is racist, then no one is racist.
I'd like to amend this and just say that if everything is an an emergency then nothing is an emergency.
🎯🎯
We used to get our work jobs in folders as work got busy they started to prioritize the work by putting a red sticker on hot jobs. One sticker, two sticker, three…it became such a joke that they would just cover the folders in red stickers. Thinking back I was partly to blame, I didn’t know how to say no. Live and learn.
I work on saying no a lot oftener these days.
Ah - you had children.
One of the great gifts as we get older is learning to say no. Part of that thing, fostering "the greatest love of all" (cue Whitney Houston).
🙌
Both excellent points
This country was founded during an emergency. There are absolutely ***No**** "Emergency Powers" granted by any of the three Constitutions.
Full stop. Dot at the end.
The Kitten is correct once again.
And. We the People are back.
The issue is, the vast majority of Americans allowed themselves to be Shanghai'd into accepting a foreign status ("U.S Citizen," which is defined as a Puerto Rican, no offense to the Good/Bad Cat, or "citizen of the United States" which is defined as a Municipal District slave).
Americans are those born within the 50 physically-defined states, that don't accept conflicting allegiances (or that temporarily are serving in the Crown's foreign service, i.e. the "U.S. Military" or Federal Civil Service, or as a dependent, asylum seeker, or welfare recipient).
Americans...well, we aren't anyone's "employees" (the words "citizen" and "employee" mean the same thing).
You can't be "born a citizen." Babies can't be employees. You are born a "national" of whatever country you come forth into.
And, thanks to the "pubic fool system," people are not taught that there are in fact three Constitutions:
Each one is a service contract for a branch of our subcontractor "government service providers"
1) The Constitution for the united States of America (American Federal subcontractor, ratified 1787, in abeyance since March 28th 1861)
2) The Constitution of the United States of American (Ratified 1789, British Territorial subcontractor, responsible for Territories, sea jurisdiction and navigable inland waterways, based in Puerto Rico, jurisdiction Territorial states such as PR, Guarm, Northern Marianas Islands, etc.)
3) The Constitution of the United States (Ratified 1790, Roman Municipal jurisdiction, i.e. the "Nation" of The City of Columbia/Astarte/Ashtoreth, aka "District of Columbia")
The Constitutions can (and technically have) go away tomorrow, and the guarantees of Americans don't go anywhere. However, since all "U.S. Citizens" and "citizens of the United States" are creations of these service contracts...they become rootless, stateless vagabonds.
So, might be a good idea to claim and publish your status as an American. And stop allowing others to define you as their employees.
Oh, and instead of this insipid bs regarding "secession," how about you just kick out the troublemaker? The "District of Columbia" has violated its terms of existence. The solution is "Involuntary Retrocession."
Virginia already took back their portion in the 1840's. Maryland can do the same.
The Chicoms are drooling at the prospect of the 50 states fragmenting. There's no need. All 50 are on good terms. Only a few foreign troublemakers trying to stir shit.
Boot them out. Dissolve DC. It's 66 sq. miles. Easily done.
Our capitol is Philadelphia. Has been since 1776. No change there.
And tell the employees to get back into their lane, or there will be consequences.
Like Idaho did, with Idaho Public Law 11.11.2021:
https://states.americanstatenationals.org/idaho/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/11/Public-Law-11.11.2021-recording.pdf
It's not rocket science, people.
Well I for one dont know any of these statuses but I love the idea of kicking out DC and any Federal institution. Saving. I obviously have a lot to learn, so thank you.
Duchess, my pleasure.
It is very simple, really. Are you an American (born in one of the 50 physically-dlefined states comprising The United States of America, note the Capitalization on the definite article), or a United Statesian (defined by the 14th Amendment to the Scottish commercial charter/doppelganger called "the Constitution of the United States (Incorporated)" that was fraudulently created in 1868)?
Anything "passed" by the "United States Congress" has applicability only within "their" nation: which is defined explicitly by "their" employee code ("U.S. Code"). For instance, the definition of "United States" and "State" can easily be found in 26 USC 7701: it is "the District of Columbia." That's it.
Or, the much vaunted "Commerce clause" pertaining to "interstate commerce." They never stipulate which "states" they are referring to, and prefer to let people assume.
But, reading 18 USC 922, it can be seen that "interstate commerce" means:
"Commerce" (trade between two or more incorporated entites, which eliminates men and women right off the bat) between, into, or out of either DC or Puerto Rico. Nothing else.
Checkmate.
If you want to learn more about correcting your status, check out www.theamericanstatesassembly.net
There's a -lot- of learning and catching up to do, but it is worth it.
Oh dear, next I'll be refusing to pay my income taxes and moving to Ruby Ridge :-).
But I will look and learn, thank you. I am so sad that my countrymen will not revolt against this massive take down that we are seeing.
Duchess, my pleasure.
And, I can hear the palpable fear underlying your humor.
Let's look at "your income taxes."
If you are engaged in a Federally-connected trade or business (defined explicitly and exclusively as the functions of a public office and nothing else in 26 USC 7701), then by all means, do not stop paying.
The problem arises because -everyone- claiming to be a "U.S. Employee" (Citizen/citizen) was "defined without their knowledge/consent" as an "office holder." Which means that, although it is fraud by omission, and is therefore void, "they" will still use threat, duress, coercion, and duress to prey upon you.
Just a for instance, the knee-jerk reaction of most people, when confronted by a "legal" situation, is to "retain an attorney."
At that point, it is already game over. Only thing that is left is to determine how badly you will be screwed. A "BAR Attorney" is a Squire of the British Crown (Inns of Court of The City of London, which is an independent City State of the same ilk as DC and Vatican City). They can -only- "re-present" British subjects.
Meaning if you retain one, you are tacitly admitting to being a Brit, a "resident" (one who is residual, a foreign worker temporarily here to provide services for Americans).
Americans have all their Constitutional Guarantees (no such thing as "Constitutional Rights," that's another common mis-nomer).
U.S. Citizens have privileges granted conditionally by their Employers, and their King/Queen.
citizens of the United States have very limited privileges granted by their owner the Pontiff of Rome. They are after all "Civil Servants" (voluntary slaves, even if they are not told of their slave status). They are expected to know.
You see, it is all "legal" because it is presumed to be "voluntary."
It is in no way "lawful," however. But it does not change until you change, and make it clear what your choice is.
Returning to the issue of "Income Tax," it is actually illegal to claim to be a taxpayer unless you can legitimately claim that status (meaning you are in the Federal Civil Service, foreign service/military, or a dependent of same). You can be prosecuted under 18 USC 911 and 912 (falsely claiming to be a U.S. Citizen and a U.S. Officer respectively). Filling out a 1040 (bond) form without actually being a taxpayer is committing perjury. But of course they never tell you this.
Regarding "rebellion," there is no need. They are the ones in rebellion against their service contracts. But up until a few years ago, there was no one to call them out. Since a U.S. Citizen has no standing to complain about their employer, there was no way to enforce anything. They have carte blanche to imprison, or even kill their fellow U.S. employees (re: Waco, Ruby Ridge, Jan 6th, etc.) Perfectly legal.
But the Principals (American People) are back, and more are returning every day. And we can (and are) enforcing the service obligations of our wayward hired help. They have been given a Notice to Vacate, unless they course correct immediately.
Violence is what they are hoping for, or other malarkey such as the "Second Declaration of Independence" (the height of foolishness, since that would immediately void the original, and still fully functional Unanimous Declaration of 1776).
And so it really comes down to the old rub: "Nosce te ipsum." Or "Know thyself" in English. Return to yourself, an American, and reclaim your birthright. It is all there waiting.
Thats what we should be sending to our congress critters
Humans will go extinct. Something else will come along.
The fact that I belong to the former still doesn't make it an emergency.
Nice
No one is racist.
Zen Bullshit!
He he.
Well said!
How long until noncompliance causes clots shows up in the news?
Depends. Are they violent white right-wing extremists as the canadian truck-clots, or peacefully protesting poc-clots like the BLM rallies of yesteryear?
Well, that level of information won't be covered, of course, because this is a confidential conversation with your doctor, who will privately ask if you have firearms in your home, of course. Per CDC guidelines.
Bravery is doing what’s right even if you are afraid.
Please look into using a mini-Fauci on your graphs. You could put him on the right side and say, "must be this tall to matter."
Brilliant! That explains everything.
He never got to ride the big boy coasters.
If only we would've Gnomen that!
Sorry. Couldn't help myself.
I wish it was clever enough to add this word to our Gnomenclature
Fauci has short fucker syndrome.
ohh...hooo. yes!
Just when I didn't think it could get any better!
🤦♂️
That. Is. Hilarious! Thank-you!
Our governor in the state of WA has had emergency powers for over 870 days. Earlier this month, he quietly extended a PERMANENT vax mandate for all government workers - FULLY vaxed, no exemptions - as of July 2023. There is even talk of reinstating indoor masking. Many people here think he is doing a great job, which I just don’t understand.🙄😔😡
Fellow Inslee captive here. He is a great picture of what Gato is illuminating in this stack. All medical workers and patients must also be masked. I went to the dentist recently. They would not let me in the door without a mask. I canceled and left. No more masking and never vaxxed here.
And his environmental policies are insane. Our beautiful state is being wrecked with idiocy.
My husband and I watch this and wait. We have been in grass roots meetings that seem to be pointless. But it’s something. I look at the candidates coming up in both parties in this state with little hope. We are looking for a way forward. None seen yet.
The rnc and dnc are both bought and paid for. Voters voices are active but unheard. This will be a movement of civil disobedience.
How does a dentist work on a patient that has a mask on? Since the patient must be unmasked to work on his teeth and gums this shows how ridiculous this has become. The dentist and staff being masked are safe from the patient if masks work, if they don't then WHY?
Yes. It’s all theater. We are all supposed to simply comply. They don’t actually care if we believe the masks or vaccines work. It’s all about obedience. We MUST stop complying. My husband and I made a pact. We will never be vaxxed or masked to simply comply.
This will be more difficult in this state as time goes along. We see the next step is not about science or even family or community support. We are just supposed to do as we are told. Inslee must love China. He is a mini xi from where I stand. It will go full on orders with no sugar coating. If we don’t stand up now it’s all lost. It’s time to get real about the place this takes us. Be free. Refuse to comply.
My wife and I have the same pact. We are fortunate to live in conservative county in a purple state having moved several years ago from a county becoming woke/left. Our current county has had only 51 so called coof deaths since the beginning of the plandemic, most all from nursing homes and everyone beyond the 1st 12 being during the times he jabs were available.
I really believe we are developing a parallel economy divided on the lines of the compliant vs the non-compliant to the tyranny that is being pushed on us. That said, I had a conversation with a good friend last night who talked about the numbers of left leaning clients and one dedicated democrat relative who have been totally red pilled by the tyranny, and the absurdity of the current regime running this country. The great reset has spawned a Great Awakening. We are making progress and there is hope if we keep grinding.
I agree there is always hope. But this is a leaderless rebellion. People need leaders. We need hero’s. They are out there. But it difficult to find them and know who to trust. ask the J 6 crew.
Once awakened people must act free to be free. I believe this movement will grow organically over time. As trust in the state diminishes. it’s never been more important to take the risk of living free. Under duress. We have to agree to discomfort, inconvenience and we must prepare.
It’s going to get scary and weird as the power state pushes the people to see what we will tolerate. WILL AMERICANS have the backbone to say no? Remains to be seen.
I think we'll see the demographics continue to shift, at an increasingly quicker tempo. People will be almost forced to choose between states of blue or red (God help those stuck in the purple). Balkanization may be our best option, as civil wars are always the worst. Sooooo much depends on the midterms.
My man and I have a pact, too. Death before the jab, for both of us. We'll pull a grenade together like that soldier couple in "Alien II".
JK, but not really.
Your damn straight. We must not be afraid AND be willing to pay the PRICE.
And more than a few martyrs, I'm afraid. The tree of liberty will have its blood.
In Iowa here, the city gov just renewed their mask mandate inside city buildings.
And, in 90+ degree heat, I see idiots wearing N95 masks when they don’t have to!
Brainwashed fools...
In Iowa?!
Crap, we're screwed.
Ramping up for November 8.
This is in Cedar Rapids...
Blue, like Des Moines.
Ever wonder why the cities turn blue? I have a theory: people in cities know that they are dependent on a complex infrastructure that they cannot comprehend, much less control. So they want someone to tell them "Don't worry, we'll take care of you." So that's what the dems say, while the GOP message is self-reliance. (Or at least used to be.)
So they drink the kool-aid and vote blue, hoping the promises will be kept. Of course they cannot; nobody can keep such a promise because the only way complex systems work is through the combined efforts of many thousands (or millions) of individuals each working in their own informed self interest. This is the lesson of Adam Smith.
Creeping blueness out of Des Moines. Say goodbye to the Bucket o' Bacon (sniff!).
Noooo! Take anything but that!
Their viciousness knows no limits!
I know. Too cruel to even contemplate.
Maybe it's the "doing something is better than nothing" fallacy.
They just claim that masking and jabs have prevented mass American extinction, and people are grateful for the tyranny instead of laughing hysterically.
Hopefully any effected workers sue the governor. There are no licensed products available in the US, and it is illegal to mandate EUA products. His mandate is in conflict with EUA rules, because the companies refuse to make products they are liable for. They *might* start producing them when they can get it on the childhood schedule and get a different liability classification, but if they don't, I guarantee, they will never, ever make a non-EUA product for the public. I think they might have to make some available to the military for this reason. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/military-covid-vaccine-mandate-violates-law-pl/
I just think "suing" is part of the problem, don't you?
MLK didn't win until people refused to comply with the injustice. And the beatings, dog maulings (sorry, cat scratchings!), clubbings, hosings, and arrests eventually flipped the script.
No one cared when Black folks were getting beaten, but it is valuable for the historical record to shed light on the depravity of the system, and how laws can be unethical, unjust, and still enforced by immoral actors. Leaders are killed when they reach class consciousness, and realize that the enemy is the system that is crushing everyone, regardless of race, religion, identity or ideology. King was killed for planning the Poor People's March, which was planning to go to congress and occupy it until they changed their laws. They couldn't let that happen. At this point, a number of remedies are needed. Non-compliance, but also legal protections. But the oligarchic system at this point is so compromised by $$$ that I'm not sure there is much left to redeem.
There was talk of MLK being RFK's running mate in the presidential race. They could never allow that.
yup, they yapped him too. MLK also had tried to stick with US Civil Rights issues, but became critical of Vietnam, which also had a broader appeal, being that the war was unpopular and killing so many young men. Plus RFK ran afoul of the mob/mafia types that his dad used to get JFK elected when he started cracking down on organized crime. It's crazy how common political assassinations were in the US past. Reagan was shot only 40 years ago. Wild.
I have never read that! How awesome would that have been?!
Agree! We are at the last gasp.
That POS needs to hang. WA was a wonderful and beautiful state once, one I knew and loved well. I can't bear to cross its borders these days. Same is true of Oregon.
Self-separation is speeding up. My wife and I left CA 12 years ago for Texas.
The decision was hard to make, but we've NEVER regretted it. Neither will you or anyone else. Two months ago I returned to CA for my dad's funeral, the 2 dozen homeless encampments in open, public view stunned me.
Don't put up with their garbage and tyranny anymore.
Agree. My wife and I left in 2009. Best decision of our lives.
We left first week of 2010. We may have crossed each other on the highway!!
Thank you for these affirming words.
Same is true of Kalifornia!
It is unbelievable how bad they effe'd it up!
Tell me about it. Every time I see a photo of Gov. Dippity-Do, I want to rearrange his perfect orthodontics.
When I see those teeth, all I can think is; Antichrist
Oh, I think that's giving that little cheesedick too much credit.
I just think Templeton the Rat, though he actually wasn't nearly so bad as Noisome.
The Mouth of Sauron? Yes...
Obummer.
Yeah, he's the M of S, in fact I actually thought that when I watched the film. What a racist, huh?
We were there in May of '15. It was pretty, clear, and sunny. (Not clear enough to see Mt. Rainier, though. 😞) Everything I'd always heard it wasn't. You even have deciduous trees! My cousins always complained that there was nothing but pines.
The only time I ever lived outside of Hawai'i growing up was a year I spent on my uncle's farm in Woodenville (now a very moneyed small town, outside of Olympia). I have family in the San Juans, my Mom lived in Vancouver across the bridge from Portland (ugh!) and my father lived for years in Seattle, which was a glorious city back then. How he would hate to see what it has become. Washington is still gorgeous, but its politics are just fugly.
After 6 months old I've lived here. That's it.
`\_(•_•)_/`
I just touched on this yesterday. Inslee is, indeed, the worst.
https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/turn-back-the-clock-its-covid-time
Unsurprisingly from my perspective (as I’ve done this particular graph about a million times), total hospital utilization has remained flat the entire pandemic, regardless of how many covid patients are in the hospital. We do see a slight rise last year, that’s when Jay Inslee mandated jabs for state workers (including healthcare workers) and our total healthcare capacity fell. (That’s what you do in a healthcare crisis, right? Fire nurses?)
Drill in further and we can get this comparison:
According to the state of Washington, we have almost TRIPLE the covid patients this year as we did last year. (Also, please note the nearly 5,000 bed DROP in our capacity!) So what changed between 2020 & 2021, where we see seasonality followed almost 100%, and 2022, when the virus doesn’t clear out of the north?
Thank you for backing me up!😃
What I need is conclusive, simple data/proof to show my vaccine-loving friends that the unvaxxed are NOT more likely to contract and spread covid, and do not suffer more severe symptoms.
Inslee sent me into early retirement (long-time, highly-esteemed substitute teacher here for a district that would rather use office workers as subs than admit they need me), and my friends shrug their shoulders and say I made a choice (therefore not TRUE discrimination), and lament that there is nothing they can do. In a way, I feel the same; what can I realistically do to create meaningful and lasting change? Western WA just seems lost to me.
It's tough because every time that proof shows up, it gets disappeared.
https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/et-tu-snohomish
Recently I detailed how King County was moving their goalposts to hide fading vaccine efficacy, disappearing almost all of the actual data on the site and only showing ‘age and time adjusted’ estimations based on OTHER estimations of vaccine uptake.
That brings us, at long last, to Snohomish County. For months they have been breaking down data between vaccinated and unvaccinated cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. It was one of the only places left that I could be confident in the numbers because they were easily available. Last month’s vaccine efficacy chart looked like this (data through December):
The data was clearly showing the protection granted by the jab faded quickly, which tracked with nearly everywhere else around the world. I looked forward to the new report being released and seeing what the new numbers were.
Well, the report is out, and guess what we don’t see inside? Not only have they removed the vaccine efficacy charts, THEY HAVE REMOVED EVERY PIECE OF DATA RELATED TO THE BREAKDOWN OF CASES, HOSPTAILIZATIONS, AND DEATHS. All of it. Gone.
Because many think they are part of the tribe of cool, trendy folk nobly sacrificing comfort and convenience (and autonomy) for the sake of the holy gods of “science.”
I don’t know about that. I think they actually believe that Inslee is providing a safer state. When I tell friends that people in other states don’t live as we do (trying to point out that WE don’t need to live this way either), they smile and say they know, and that they are always happy to return home (where it’s safe).🙄
This what we are fighting against!
Gonna like for KPI'S, but "dislike" very much.
Move or comply.
O Lord
This was all well known by the summer / early fall of 2020 yet people continued to comply for the next 1.5 years. Why? Conformity. That's the attack vector.
Well, Covid Vaxx rates are dropping with each new booster rollout.
Remember: There is a limit to vaxx compliance with the dead, maimed, and non-existent children of the sterilized.
Yes and fear drives conformity. We are ruled by what we fear. Engage in personally difficult and challenging endeavor - learn to kill the fear. Losing fear is freedom. Except for that built in physiological fear that serves our survival and evolution of course! Trust ourselves, trust rational fear and kill irrational fear.
Well said!
The long goodbye to our liberties.
The Die Harder Plan is what they want us to accept.
It only gets Harder tomorrow.
I'm willing to Die on this hill!...mostly peacefully...;]
Our PLAN should be; to FIGHT back!
As long as you burn down the stadium in "mostly peaceful" way. 👍
Now if I only had a million to spare. Who could be bought?
A million? A paltry million? That might buy you into a small town hospital.
"A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon you're talking real money." God, we could use Everett Dirkson right now.
The PBS News Hour had the Sec of Commerce on last night.
She referred to the $52 billion for domestic chip manufacturing - "So I think $52 billion is really a drop in the bucket..."
They wouldn't bother looking for a million in the couch cushions.
Ha!
Soup for my family.
The plastic cans of course?
Of course. Wouldn't want anyone to get hurt.

I got excited cuz I thought it would be a link to this:

Which sadly I still like
It's still a good demonstration on how durable bottles actually are, contrary to TV and movies.
Yup. Mostly plastic ones...
It's obvious, then; we should all act like cats, who will only do what the concierge (née owner) asks whenever we feel like it.
I’m in
Give a statist an inch, and he thinks he’s a ruler.
Don’t give him that inch...

BOOM!
So what I am gathering in my dull , first cup of coffee mind is: kill more people & prevent more births today to save people tomorrow when there are fewer people to save. I’m sure that will make more sense after the second cuppa.
Gato makes a very salient point about the middle.
The scamdemic took many "normies" off guard.....and many were incredulous in response to us real theorists...They would say things like "How could they pull of a conspiracy like that!?" "Who benefits?" "The just want to help us not die!"
I pray that enough in that lazy middle have awoken...
All the sheep (well, some are now awake) are nicely corralled now and recorded. Then there are those who are resistant, independent, resolute, strong, seeking deeper courage. And they, too, are nicely recorded. The separation, the gulf, is very evident. Stage One complete. Now what? What are the plans for the strong? There is always a surprise up evil sleevies. We have been ambushed once …
In the words of the formerly great Jean-Luc Picard, “there are 4 lights”!!!
"Chain of Command, Part II". Harkening back to this:

Local news had some self appointed expert Karen Statist pleading for us all to wear masks ( again) in Philadelphia. I began flipping the bird at the tv. Effective I know. It’s why I rarely turn on the boob tube. I suffer uncontrollable middle fingeritis. I’m an authority on this disorder. 😜
I do that with Big Harma commercials as well. I’m getting repetitive stress injuries. Good thing I’m ambidextrous.
Perhaps we can receive compensation from big Pharma for “ Long Finger”? ( badump bump)
See Germany admitting vaccine dose reaction of 1:5000? A lot of honesty all of a sudden becoming fashionable
Yes yet it seems masks are making a comeback in Germany. See: eugyppius@substack.com
It makes no sense
Maybe it makes sense from a non-medical perspective?
3 molecules of CO2 per 10,000 molecules of N2 and O2 = good
4 molecules of CO2 per 10,000 molecules of N2 and O2 = we’re all gonna die!
Incredible propaganda. 😂😂
