Governor Evers said the people of Wisconsin should “sit back and take a breath” over bail reform. Really? WTF? Can you say "tone deaf?" [Doug here: See my comments below]
From Gateway Pundit:

| Waukesha Mass Killer Shown with his Weapon of Mass Destruction |
Brooks should never have been out of jail in the first place, but thanks to felons-first Milwaukee DA John Chisholm, this violent felon was bailed out for just $1000.
The district attorney whose office let out Brooks on a measily $1,000 bond three weeks ago did so after Brooks ran over his girlfriend with the same vehicle he used to plow through the Waukesha parade.
 |
| Left-Wing Looney DA Chisholm in Milwaukee |
John Chisholm is a very sick and evil man who should be removed from office as soon as possible. His actions ultimately are responsible for the murders in Waukesha.
The people of Milwaukee asked Democrat Governor Tony Evers to remove Chisholm after the event.
In his year-end interview, Governor Evers said the people of Wisconsin should “sit back and take a breath” over bail reform. Seriously?
Channel 3000 reported:
In a year-end interview with News 3 Now, Gov. Tony Evers said his office was reviewing a complaint for authenticity and would weigh whether to launch an investigation of Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisolm after the Waukesha holiday parade tragedy…
…Gov. Evers suggested he might support bail reform laws as well in the wake of the tragedy, but cautioned that any reform would need “every stakeholder” at the table.
“You hate to use tragedy like this to create an impetus to change,” he said. “But if everybody sits back and takes a breath…maybe there’s a way that people that have a violent past could have higher bail. I’m open to that.”
[Doug here: This is another example of ignoring the violence of black men because it doesn't fit "with your world view." Sick Leftists are so committed to the falsehood that "we're all the same." As I said in my post The Real Daunte Wright that:
"white persons (or in this case, the 6 white people and the 60 injured) are just more victims put in the "cannibal's pot" of our prevailing black scumbag "culture" where blacks are often given a "pass" and/or given unearned, preferential and elevated status as our new cultural and social "standard." Whites are being sacrificed on the altar (or in the cannibal's pot) of so-called "equality" where there is virtually no equality at all," This is occuring as the black violence, the extremes of irrationality and the 'un-culture' of our black population has reached absurd and extreme levels in our country."
Leftist DAs like Chisholm feel free to ignore this situation and the consequences of their sicko delusions as more innocent victims are hurt or killed. Is empathy even possible for this deranged man?? It's happened in the summer of 2020 and it's continuing to happen. LEFTISTS continue to put their head in the sand and cover their ears in total denial of the reality on the ground.
How would he feel if his own child (or children) were mowed-down and killed by Scumbag Darrel Brooks? Would that snap him out of his denial?]

From my post Italy Revises It's Covid Deaths DOWN by 97%. When Will CDC Revise It's Total? I think we will soon have a similar revision in the US and other countries.
From Paul Craig Roberts
CDC Admits that the Covid Pandemic Was the Product of an Inappropriate Test
Quietly without media attention, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has withdrawn the PCR process as a valid test for detecting and identifying SARS-CoV-2.
“After December 31, 2021, CDC will withdraw the request to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2 only.” https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dls/locs/2021/07-21-2021-lab-alert-Changes_CDC_RT-PCR_SARS-CoV-2_Testing_1.html
The CDC admits that the PCR test cannot differentiate between SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses. [Doug here: WTF??? Where's the lying "media" coverage???]
I reported several months ago that the “health authorities” had reached this decision but were withholding its implementation until the end of 2021. They needed the fake test to keep the fear going in order to achieve as much vaccination, and therefore as much profit, as possible.
It is extraordinary that the CDC’s withdrawal of the test received no attention from the media or politicians.
Dr. Kary Mullis, Nobel Laureate and inventor of the PCR process said several years ago that “the PCR is a process. It does not tell you that you are sick.” It was never meant to be a Covid test.
Dr. Pascal Sacre, the famous Belgian specialized in critical care, said that the RT-PCR process was misused and applied as a relentless and intentional strategy to create the appearance of a pandemic based on phony test results and not actual Covid patients in order to violate human and constitutional rights of citizens.
As I have reported consistently, the PCR test was intentionally run at high cycles that were known to produce false positives. Most of the alleged “Covid cases” were nothing but intentional fabrications. Hospitals were part of the deceptive scam, because they were incentivized by financial rewards to report practically all deaths as Covid deaths. It was easy to do as every dying person from any cause was given a PCR test that produces up to 97% false positives and thereby declared a “Covid death.”
The question before the world is whether the “health authorities,” really just shills for Big Pharma profits as Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has proved, the politicians and the lying media will be held accountable for the injuries and deaths caused by the “vaccine” itself, for the lost and closed businesses caused by the senseless lockdowns, and for the extraordinary violations of the Nuremberg Laws by mandated vaccination.
The people of the world need to understand that the orchestrated “Covid pandemic” is the most horrible mass crime ever committed in human history. It was the “Free West” that organized and perpetrated this horrible crime.
The people who trusted Fauci, who trusted Biden, who trusted the medical establishment, and who trusted the media had their lives ruined.
Will the human race be too stupid to comprehend its deception and the consequences for human rights and human freedom? Will they continue to trust authorities and media that deceived them with a controlled narrative that required silencing and punishing all the real experts? If so, they will have been effectively enslaved.
'He was either going to be imprisoned, kill someone, or be killed.'
Daunte Wright led a life of crime and violence before his death and shot his own friend in the head, broke into a neighbor's home, and robbed a woman at gunpoint. [Doug here: note my important comments below]
Before Daunte Wright was shot and killed by Minnesota police officer Kim Potter, he terrorized his local neighborhood for several years, leaving victims and their families with a lifetime's worth of trauma and suffering.
Through court records and interviews with the victims, DailyMail.com can exclusively report that Wright had led a life of crime and violence before his death, having been involved in the shooting of two of his school friends, a home burglary, and had previously assaulted and robbed a young woman at gunpoint.
Wright,
20, was shot dead on April 11 after officer Kim Potter reached for her
gun instead of her taser during a botched traffic stop in Brooklyn
Center.
 |
| Among his victims is Caleb Livingston (pictured with his mother Jennifer
LeMay) who was left permanently disabled after being shot in the head
by Wright in 2019 |
She said her son Caleb, now 18, was left permanently disabled after Wright, his one-time friend, allegedly shot him in the head at a gas station and left him to die two years ago.
A lawsuit filed on behalf of her son in May this year describes the fateful events that took place outside a Full Stop convenience store and gas station on May 14, 2019.
The documents state Wright 'discharged a firearm toward Caleb striking him with a single shot bulled in the heard causing serious disabling, and permanent injuries.'
According to LeMay, Wright shot Caleb in the frontal part of his head, with a bullet ripping through to the other side of his skull, where it is still lodged.
'Daunte shot my son and left him to die,' she said. 'During his hospital stay Caleb almost died six times because of his injuries.'
[Doug here: It's such a pity that the officer was found guilty. The officer admitted that she intended to use a non-lethal gun but used her Glock instead in the heat of the moment. But Daunte was resisting arrest and disobeyed the commands of officers (AS ALWAYS) when he tried to get back in his car. The officer had no idea if he had a weapon in the car and she was totally justified in using lethal force. And the officers knew that he had an open arrest warrant for armed burglary, so they knew he was a serious criminal-in-the-making even at 20 years old. Daunte was just another of the millions of black men who are destined for a life of criminality and an unacceptable burden to our society. Also see my posts: The Left is Pushing "Systemic Racism" Again, But the Problem is Low Black Intelligence and High Criminality and All the Unworthy, Unholy Black "Martyrs"
Potter is just the latest victim of Daunte and his type: ie., violent thugs and 'shit-for-brains' persons who have an already long list of victims and a record of mayhem by 20 years old.
In a larger sense, Potter is just another white person put in the "cannibal's pot" of our prevailing black scumbag "culture" where blacks are often given a "pass" and given unearned, preferential and elevated status as our new cultural and social "standard." Whites are being sacrificed on the altar (or in the cannibal's pot) of so-called "equality" where there is virtually no equality at all.
This is occuring as the black violence, the extremes of irrationality and the 'un-culture' of our black population has reached absurd and extreme levels in our country. Worse, whites are being forced to put up with total government and 'captured' media whitewashing of the outrageous, criminal, disastrous, and dangerous Black criminality and anti-social behavior. It's pure insanity.
We might as well rename our country New Afrika since our monetary and fiscal policies are basically that of serially-failed Zimbabwe and our government policy is similar to the Marxist ANC rule in South Africa where depraved and ignorant Blacks are put in charge, to replace competent Whites. "Ni**er nation" is today being imposed on our once-advanced culture by Democrats and this incredibly ignorant portion of the population, at only 13% of the total, and basically the dumbest and least-cultured people on the planet, are served-up as our new "model citizens" and our new cultural standard. 💩
We're seeing total self-destruction
as our entire history and European cultural heritage is denigrated and tossed-aside by our illegitimate, incompetent and deranged Democrat administration (the 2020 election steal was, in fact, perpetrated by black criminals on the ground in the key battleground cities --mostly minority populated. "The Steal" was master-minded by other criminals in the Democratic Party but perpetrated on the ground in 5 urban ghettos).
The results are total failure: total
incompetence and failure at every level and everywhere you look. We truly are being forced into a 3rd World country status before our very eyes. AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, YOU'RE CALLED 'RACIST' AND IMMEDIATELY CANCELLED BY RETARDED LITTLE 'FACT CHECKER' CHILDREN AT THE MEDIA CORPS.
If that wasn't bad enough, there is a total breakdown of law and order as ALL of the functions of government are failing including judges and courts of law. ]
As noted in my post Energy Insanity In Germany. These People are Nuts!, the massively idiotic German "government" is determined to shut down the remainder of it's nuclear power plants by end of 2022 in their quest to reach the nirvana of nearly all "renewable" energy. This is what a false idol looks like. They are in the midst of climate hysteria and irrational worship of the God of renewable power.
These people will remain in the grip of "climate change insanity" until they face a possible failure of their grid or their other suppliers (discussed below).
Today, UK and EU natural gas prices have soared today to the oil price equivalent of $341 USD per barrel of oil!! German power prices have soared to $0.48 USD per Kilowatt-hour. (The US average is about $0.10 per kW-hr)
 |
| Northern EU Natural Gas Prices Reach the Equivalent of $341 USD per barrel of oil |
Part of this is this crisis is due to the inability of the Germans to approve the NordStream 2 gas pipeline that is now ready and waiting to provide cheap and abundant natural gas supplies from Russia. It's especially crazy since natural gas inventories in Germany and the EU are already too low for this time of the year.
Electric power prices (spot mkt prices presumably) in Germany have also soared when the demand for heating homes is higher, like, you know, during winter.
 |
| Germany's Electrical Power Cost Hits $0.48 US per kW-Hr compare to the US average of about $0.10 per kW-hr |
Germany already has a high-voltage power cables with Norway that run on the seabed to provide 1,400 MW of power. A subsea power cable to Sweden is also complete with 600 MW potential. Germany also has power connections with the French grid powered substantially by nuclear reactors. These connections may allow them to survive periods of "no wind" and nearly non-existant solar power in the normally-cloudy winter months (at 50 deg North Latitude). These connections to other country's grids are also vitally necessary in summer when Germany is producing EXCESS solar power on sunny days in the summer. They have to emergency-dump excess solar power to other countries or risk grid failure.
It is these robust electric cable connections with the sane, real and reliable power grids of neighboring countries is what allows the Germans to live in a dream world of renewable energy without a nearly 100% base- load conventional fossil or nuclear fuel backup.
I've mentioned before that large-scale renewable wind and solar power requires near-100% baseload backup by conventional or nuclear power plants. Therein lies the problem with large-scale (>10 to 25% of the total power generated by) intermittent solar and wind power: the installed total generation capacity is DOUBLE (the expensive wind and solar plants PLUS near-100% fossil/nuke power plant backup). How can doubling the capital invested ever be considered economic?? There are instabilities in this arrangement as we're seeing.
But apparently even all of these connections are not good enough to prevent a real shortage of power as we see with spot power pricing (shown above). Perhaps it's because some 25% of France's nuclear plants (total of 56 plants) are offline for maintenance---which is very unusual at this time of year. Mind you, power consumption in
Europe is highest in the winter months. Also Germany is short of natural gas for clean natural gas generated electricity (as shown above). The evidence is in that this system is unstable. An advanced country cannot have an unstable power grid.
All this is happening as the German government is MANDATING ALL-ELECTRIC AUTOS in the future while reducing their stable base-load power generation to very low levels (or rely on energy imports).
See my posts Germany's Solar Projects are a Bust and Germany Abandons Nuclear Power.

Definition of "Dud" from Collins Dictionary:
Omicron is a dud, which is a great, great thing. It marks the end of the credibility, and ultimately the influence of, all the flim-flam artists, hysterical Gov't dummies and dipshits, the "Public Health" phonies, propagandists and the end of the reign of terror by the Pharma-, Medical-, Media-Industrial Complexes.
From Alex Berenson:
Fewer than 1 in 50 people with confirmed Omicron cases are being hospitalized in South Africa - which suggests that the actual hospitalization to infection rate is far lower still, because so many people with Omicron have such mild cases they won’t bother to be tested.
And the wave of new cases seems to have peaked.
It is over. Well and truly. And so is the last shred of any credibility for public health authorities, governments, and the media.

| Nazis and "Normal" Germans at Auschwitz Laughing |
And so, as 2021 goose-steps toward its fanatical finish, it is time for my traditional year-end wrap-up. It’s “The Year of the Ox” in the Chinese zodiac, but I’m christening it “The Year of the New Normal Fascist.”
And what a phenomenally fascist year it has been!
I’m not talking amateur fascism. I am talking professional Class-A fascism. Government and corporate sanctified fascism. Bug-eyed, spittle-flecked, hate-drunk fascism. I’m talking mobs of New Normal fascists shrieking hatred and threats at “the Unvaccinated” as they are dragged off “Vaccinated Only” trains, painting Nazi-era messages on their windows of their stores, leaders of government fomenting mass hatred, TV commentators literally quoting sadistic Nazi SS doctors, leftists going full-fascist on Facebook, concentration camps, Goebbelsian propaganda, censorship of dissent … the whole nine yards.
Here in Europe, things are particularly fascist. One by one, New Normal countries are rolling out social-segregation systems, ordering “lockdowns” of “the Unvaccinated,” and otherwise persecuting those who refuse to conform to official New Normal ideology. Austria has made “vaccinations” mandatory. Germany is about to follow suit. “Covid passes” have been approved in the UK. Greece is fining “Unvaccinated” pensioners by reducing the amount of their state-pension payments. Swedes are “chipping” themselves. And so on.
In New Normal Germany, “the Unvaccinated” are under de facto house arrest. We are banned from society. We are banned from traveling. We are banned from protesting. Our writings are censored. We’re demonized and dehumanized by the New Normal government, the state and corporate media, and the New Normal masses on a daily basis. New Normal goon squads roam the streets, brutalizing pensioners, raiding barber shops, checking “papers,” measuring social distances, literally, as in with measuring sticks. The Gestapo even arrested Santa Claus for not wearing a mask at a Christmas market. In the schools, fascist New Normal teachers ritually humiliate “Unvaccinated” children, forcing them to stand in front of the class and justify their “Unvaccinated” status, while the “Vaccinated” children and their parents are applauded, like some New Normal version of the Hitler Youth. When New Normal Germany’s new Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, announced that, “for my government there are no more red lines as far as doing what needs to be done,” apparently he wasn’t joking. It’s only a matter of time until he orders New Normal Propaganda Minister Karl Lauterbach to make his big Sportpalast speech, where he will ask the New Normals if they want “total war” … and I think you know the rest of this story.
But this isn’t just a story about New Normal Germany, or New Normal Europe, or New Normal Australia. And it isn’t just a story about mass hysteria, or an “overreaction” to a corona virus. The “New Normal” is a global GloboCap co-production, a multi-trillion-dollar co-production, which has been in development for quite some time, and this year has gone exactly to script.
Given all the drama over the past 12 months, it’s easy to forget that the year began with the occupation of Washington DC by thousands of US (i.e., GloboCap) forces in the wake of the “Terrorist Assault on the Capitol” (a/k/a the “January 6 Insurrection,” or the “Attempted Coup,” or some such nonsense) carried out by a few hundred totally unarmed Donald Trump supporters, who were allegedly intent on “overthrowing the government” and “destroying Democracy” with … well, their bare hands.
This was the long-awaited “Return to Normal” spectacle that had been in the pipeline for the previous four years, the public humiliation of the Unauthorized President (and the “populists” who put him in office) and the GloboCap show of force that followed. Here’s how I described it back in January:
“In other words, GloboCap is teaching us a lesson. I don’t know how much clearer they could make it. They just installed a new puppet president, who can’t even simulate mental acuity, in a locked-down, military-guarded ceremony which no one was allowed to attend, except for a few members of the ruling classes. They got some epigone of Albert Speer to convert the Mall (where the public normally gathers) into a ‘field of flags,’ symbolizing ‘unity.’ They even did the Nazi Lichtdom thing. To hammer the point home, they got Lady Gaga to dress up as a Hunger Games character with a ‘Mockingjay’ brooch and sing the National Anthem. They broadcast this spectacle to the entire world.”
As I assume is obvious to everyone by now, the “Return to Normal” was a “Return to the New Normal,” which the global-capitalist ruling establishment was already imposing on the entire world. The message couldn’t possibly be clearer. As Arnold Schwarzenegger succinctly put it, the message is, “screw your freedom.” The message is, shut up and toe the fucking line. The message is, show me your fucking papers. Use the fucking pronouns. Eat the fucking bugs. Get the fucking “vaccinations.” Do not fucking ask us “how many.” The answer is, “as many as we fucking tell you.”
The message is, there will be no more unauthorized presidents, no more leaving the European Union, no more “populist” rebellions against the global hegemony of global-capitalism and its soul-crushing, valueless “woke” ideology. GloboCap is done playing grab-ass. They announced that back in March of 2020. They informed us in unmistakable terms that our lives were about to change, forever. They branded and advertised this change as “the New Normal,” in case we were … you know, cognitively challenged. They did not hide it. They wanted us to understand exactly what was coming, a global-capitalist version of totalitarianism, in which we will all be happy little fascist “consumers” showing each other our “compliance certificates” in order to be allowed to live our lives.
I don’t need to review the entire year in detail. You remember the highlights … the roll-out of the “safe and effective” miracle “vaccines” that don’t keep you from catching or spreading the virus, and which have killed and injured thousands of people, but which you now have to get every three or four months to be allowed to work or go to a restaurant; the roll-out of the global social-segregation/digital compliance-certificate system that makes absolutely no medical sense, but which the “vaccines” were designed to force us into; The Criminalization of Dissent; The Manufacturing of “Reality”; The Propaganda War; The Covidian Cult; the launch of The Great New Normal Purge; the whole Pathologized Totalitarianism package.
I’d like to end on an optimistic note, because, Jesus, this fascism business is depressing. So I’ll just mention that, as you have probably noticed, more and more people are now “waking up,” or relocating their intestinal fortitude, and finally speaking out against “vaccine” mandates, and “vaccination passes,” and social segregation, and all the rest of the fascist New Normal program. I intend to encourage this “awakening” vociferously. I hope that those — and you know who you are — who have been reporting the facts and opposing the New Normal, and have been ridiculed, demonized, gaslighted, censored, slandered, threatened, and otherwise abused, on a daily basis for 21 months, as our more “prominent” colleagues — and you know who you are — sat by in silence, or took part in the Hate Fest, will join me in applauding and welcoming these “prominent” colleagues to the fight … finally.
Oh, and, if you’re one of those “prominent” colleagues and you start beating your chest and sounding off like you’ve just rediscovered investigative journalism and are now leading the charge against the New Normal for your YouTube viewers or your Substack readers, please understand if we get a little cranky. Speaking for myself, yes, it’s been a bit stressful, doing your job and taking the shit for you out here in the trenches for the past 21 months. Not to mention how it has virtually killed my comedy … and I’m supposed to be a political satirist.
But there I go, getting all “angry” again … whatever. As the doctor said, “buy the ticket, take the ride.” And it’s the season of joy, love, and forgiveness, and publicly crucifying dissidents, and paranoia, and mass hysteria, and persecuting “Unvaccinated” relatives, and, OK, I might have had one too many. Happy holidays to one and all, except, of course, to the New Normal fascists, especially the ones that are torturing the children. God, forgive me, but I hope they fucking choke.

| MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Claire McCaskill tell one lie after the next during a purported news report on the case of Julian Assange, Dec. 10, 2021 |
The war on "disinformation” is now one of the highest priorities of the political and media establishment. It has become the foundational justification for imposing a regime of online censorship. Around the world, new laws are being enacted in its name to empower the state to regulate discourse. Exploiting this cause, a small handful of billionaires are working in unison with Western security state agencies — under the guise of neutral-sounding names like The Atlantic Council — to set the limits of permissible thought and decree what is true and false. Corporate media outlets are attempting to rehabilitate their shattered image by depicting themselves as the bulwark against the rising tide of disinformation.
It is an understatement to say that this righteous cause is a scam. That its motive is power and control over speech and thought — to eliminate dissent and discredit competition — rather than a noble quest for truth is almost too self-evident to require explanation. No human institutions should be trusted with the inherently tyrannical power they seek to arrogate unto themselves: to decree truth and falsity with such authoritative power that views they have decreed "false” become prohibited, off-limits, even worthy of punishment.
A foundational view of the Enlightenment was that truth and falsity are best discovered by humans engaging in free inquiry and appealing to reason and persuasion, rather than being captive to the whimsical decrees of centralized authority dictating to citizens what they are and are not permitted to believe. That is why I believe, as I wrote at length in a 2013 Guardian article, that at the heart of every censor lies hubris: the belief that they are so evolved, enlightened and superior that they have risen above the eternal human propensity to err, enabling them to ascertain universal truth whose validity is so unassailable that nobody should be permitted to question it let alone dissent from it.
All that said, there is a core truth — an unintentional one — that lies at the crux of this elite war on "disinformation." It is absolutely true that U.S. political discourse is drowning in deliberate disinformation campaigns and lies. It is also true that this disinformation epidemic is a serious menace, a toxic plague on our democracy and society. That part they have right.
Where they have gone wrong — very, very wrong — is how they have identified the most harmful sources of this disinformation. It does not emanate primarily from Trump boomers on Facebook or dark web QAnon groups or mischievous and transgressive teenagers on 4Chan. Ordinary citizens are obviously as capable as anyone of believing and spreading false assertions. But the far more damaging, destructive, organized and coordinated disinformation campaigns come from major corporate media outlets themselves and their security-state partners — particularly the corporate outlets that most vocally and flamboyantly claim to be so profoundly concerned about disinformation that they want to censor the internet in the name of stopping it. They are the ones who spent the last five years flooding the country with demented CIA-constructed conspiracies about a Kremlin takeover of the U.S. using clandestine sexual blackmail over the president and hallucinating Russian agents hiding under every bed; so many fabrications were disseminated under the rubric of that fairy tale that it is genuinely hard to choose the worst.
Arguably the most pernicious and prolific disseminator of organized disinformation campaigns is NBC News, which includes its cable unit MSNBC. We have spent the last several months working on a mini-documentary demonstrating how most of the coordinated lies from the U.S. security state were spread by a tiny handful of pundits, three of whom — Rachel Maddow, all-but-official CIA spokesman Ken Dilanian, and former Bush/Cheney spokesperson Nicolle Wallace — work for NBC News. That report will be published shortly.
But this week we produced a Rumble video dissecting one specific two-minute segment that NBC aired in order to demonstrate how casually, aggressively and constantly NBC's highest-paid personalities lie to the public. As I note in this new video, I use the term “lie” here not the way it has been used by the liberal CNN/NBC/Atlantic/NYT corporate media axis over the last five years: 1. anything Donald Trump or his supporters say; 2. anything that contravenes liberal orthodoxies. In this video report, I use the term "lie” in its most literal, restrictive and classic sense: namely, the assertion of demonstrably false factual claims with either the knowledge that it is false or complete indifference to its truth or falsity.
On December 10, MSNBC aired a segment on Morning Joe — a purported news report featuring its host Joe Scarborough, the former GOP Congressman from Florida, and its regular paid contributor Claire McCaskill, the former two-term Democratic Senator from Missouri — that packed one lie after the next into two short minutes. The duo was purporting to explain to its audience the implications of last week's ruling by a British court approving the Biden DOJ's request to extradite Julian Assange to the U.S. to stand trial on espionage charges in connection with the 2010 publication by WikiLeaks, in partnership with numerous mainstream media outlets, of a cache of secret documents revealing various war crimes, lies and corruptions on the part of the U.S. and UK governments and their allies.
Within the span of two minutes, these NBC personalities told four blatant lies about the Assange case. I do not mean that they asserted dubious opinions or questionable narratives or even misleading claims. I mean that they outright lied about four separate matters that are crucial to understanding the Biden administration's attempted extradition and prosecution of Assange. These lies were not just misleading but pernicious, as they were designed not merely to mislead the public but to provoke them to believe that one of the gravest attacks on press freedom in years — the imprisonment of a journalist for the crime of reporting true and accurate information about the crimes of power centers — is something viewers should applaud rather than denounce.
We took the time to dissect this segment and to amass the dispositive proof of their multiple lies not because we think Scarborough and McCaskill will pay any price or will have to retract any of this. Of course they will not. They are doing their job, which is to lie in a way that flatters the ideological preconceptions of NBC viewers, who hate Assange due to the role his reporting played in harming the Democratic Party during the 2016 election, which Hillary Clinton herself claims was one of the two primary reasons she lost.
We did this video report in order to illustrate how easily and reflexively these corporate outlets lie; to demonstrate that the public's view that these outlets are completely untrustworthy and contemptible is valid and correct; and to set the record straight about the Assange case. We realize that not all subscribers here want to watch a one-hour video, and for that reason — as we do with all of the video reports we produce — we will shortly publish a written transcript of the program for our Substack subscribers. But I really hope people will take the time to watch this particular video: since the lies came in the form of video, we therefore concluded that using video to highlight the severity and intentionality of this lying was the most effective way to demonstrate how noxious it really is.
From Jim Kunstler at Clusterfuck Blog:
The thesis called mass formation psychosis put forward lately by the Belgian psychologist Mattias Desmet — a good digest here in text, not video — goes a long way to explaining the disgraceful mindfuckery that Western Civ has fallen for in our time, promulgated by a thinking class that descended into abject madness. It’s well worth reviewing.
The descent was provoked by the existential anxiety over the collapse of techno-industrial economies and the end of progress as-we’ve-known-it. (Have you noticed: it was the self-styled “progressives” who went the craziest?) As Dr. Desmet lays it out, the disconnectedness of contemporary life, its lack of meaning or purpose for many, leads to unendurable anxiety. All that inchoate fear seeks desperately to attach itself to some real object, some thing or some force that can be comprehended, fought, and triumphantly overcome. Finding such a target produces an intoxicating sense of communal connection, purpose, and meaning, driving actions that are often crazy and also absolutely impervious to rational debate.
The angst in America was well established by 2016. A beaten-down middle-class suspected that left-of-center politicians did not have their interests at heart after years of off-shoring their jobs, and they managed to elect their avatar, Donald Trump, over the obviously unsympathetic globalist, Hillary Clinton — who snootily tagged her opposition “the deplorables.” Even so, the polls had her ahead by a mile. Then, by some weird twist of fate, she lost a few crucial counties in midwestern states she hadn’t bothered to visit, and was reportedly too plastered after midnight on election night to come down and console the troops at campaign headquarters. The shocking election outcome instantly deranged the nation’s entire managerial class and its thinking-out-loud interlocutors in the news media and on campus.
The Golden Golem of Greatness, as I liked to call Mr. Trump, was the perfect target for their animus. Threatening to “drain the swamp,” he would shatter their hard-won power privileges and deprive them of their well-worn grifts — such as the various revolving doors between big money and its regulators. Plus, his rough personality offended their own pretense of decorum (in pursuit of that power and grift). They decided that he had to go, and fast, and the whole managerial class and their allies closed ranks to get it done, not least the vicious agents of the Intel “Community,” which force-fed all the federal legal machinery — the official instruments of punishment.
If they could only knock Mr. Trump off the game-board, America’s troubles would be over. We could get back on track to becoming a utopia of inclusion, diversity, equity, and self-driving electric cars. For four years the FBI, the DOJ, and other distributed players (such as the CIA mole Eric Ciaramella and his NSA co-seditionist Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, and such ignoble rogues in Congress as Rep. Adam Schiff and Senator Mark Warner) beat President Trump like a piñata, casually breaking the very law that they supposedly represented in the process. This punishment was accompanied by a growing repertoire of cult-like rituals — especially around race-and-gender hustles — with rich opportunities for the new behavior called virtue signaling, which was essentially a game of collecting brownie points for status-seeking purposes in the new moral hierarchy of the “Woke.” The social networks, Facebook and Twitter, amplified every insane strand in the Woke messaging. As Dr. Desmet says, “The more absurd the rituals, the more they buy into it.”
This demonic opposition to Mr. Trump, and all the games issuing from it, produced the characteristic intoxication of mass formation psychosis. That is, the Left became a big cozy community of people initiated into a catechism of sacred truths. The important part is that they felt united in their struggle. Folks in the grip of this belonged to something at last, a solidarity of certitude, a social organism one could lose one’s anxious, fretful self in. No more loneliness and ennui. They were imbued with a sense of purpose: the ritual killing of the monster called Trump — millions of heroic Captain Willards stealing up-river to behead the renegade Colonel Kurtz. The news media’s role was to reinforce all that, with as much bad faith and dishonesty as they could get away with, in the service of fashioning a consensus that was eventually named “the narrative” — a self-reinforcing catalog of approved thought. The anti-Trump news posse garnered brownie points galore, including Pulitzer Prizes for their completely mendacious reporting.
The trouble was, for all their epic exertions, they weren’t exactly winning. The whole RussiaGate extravaganza fizzled — and may even eventuate in some criminal convictions if independent counsel John Durham turns out to be for-real. The Mueller Report came up plumb empty, to thundering disappointment, embodied in Rachel Maddow’s frantically bobulating Adam’s apple. The UkraineGate impeachment flopped. It was nice to have a sense of purpose and feel like a member of an exclusive club, but the Wokesters were unable to “nail that ol’ coonskin to wall” (as Lyndon B. Johnson once put it about winning the Vietnam War, which we lost). By January of 2020, it looked like Mr. Trump might even win re-election — the horror indeed! — considering the Democratic Party primary candidates were the most forlorn pack of has-beens, nobodies, kooks, and damaged goods ever assembled for such a contest. But whaddaya know? Along came Covid-19.
What a lifesaver the ‘Rona was for wobbling Wokedom, a cornucopia of boons, the gift that kept on giving! It provided an opportunity for perhaps the most craven public-private cartel in all the land, the CDC / FDA / NIH / NIAID / Big Pharma gang, to work some amazing hoodoo on the Golden Golem of Greatness and eventually all the nations of Western Civ. It put the perfidious, money-grubbing, and medically incompetent Dr. Anthony Fauci at the elbow of Mr. Trump as, in effect, the National Covid-19 Coordinator. He played the President like a Flugelhorn through most of 2020 — and, as the year ground on, Mr. Trump looked like he painfully suspected as much in all those ghastly televised daily briefings.
We will not go into the appalling mRNA vaccine boondoggle in detail here, except to say it reaped zillions for those with a stake in the patents, including Dr. Fauci. But Covid-19 also provided an excuse to relax the election regulations and pave the way to colossal ballot fraud in November, with Marc Elias of the Lawfare gang (and also a partner in the DNC’s pet law firm, Perkins Coie) scurrying from state to state tuning the electoral machinery in key swing precincts for a “Joe Biden” victory — and with hundreds of millions of dollars in help from Facebook’s Marc Zuckerberg. Till then, nothing in all the weaponized legal machinery across the land had succeeded in expelling the hated object of the managerial class’s loathing, but the election would git’er done.
Remember: the Progressive-Woke-Marxist-Jacobins liked nothing better than inflicting punishment. In fact, when you swept away all their ideological bullshit and the associated hustles, the movement was strictly about coercion, about pushing other people around, making them do as the Woke commissars willed. And there was a clearly sado-masochistic edge to all that. They relished cancelling people, wrecking careers, destroying reputations, livelihoods, marriages, families. Their political leaders had no qualms about exterminating hundreds of thousands of small businesses in Covid-19 lockdowns orchestrated by Woke heroes like Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York City and Governors Gavin Newsom of California and Jay Inslee of Washington State. And, of course, their darlings of the streets, BLM and Antifa, bashed-in shopfronts, looted all the merch, and burned down the buildings with mad glee.
But, most importantly, Covid-19 gave the political Left something else to focus its angst on once Mr. Trump was finally swept off the scene in the janky election. And until just the last few weeks of 2021, the virus has furnished endless opportunity for ever greater enactments of coercion and tyranny. Except now, suddenly, it’s all falling apart. In America, the claque behind the phantom president “Joe Biden” pulled the trigger on mandating vaccinations — complete with harsh punishments for the vaxx-averse — but then two things happened: 1) Federal Judge Terry Douglas in Louisiana issued an injunction against the mandate that applies in all fifty states; and 2) the news finally started leaking out — despite every effort of the US public health officialdom to hide it — that the vaccines carried an unprecedented risk of harm for medicines enlisted so casually into emergency use among so many millions of people, in addition to their negligible efficacy in preventing illness and contagion.
The Europeans, on the other hand, slid ever-deeper into despotic measures not seen since the Gestapo terrorized the continent. The Europeans face the same primal source of anxiety that the Americans do: the running down of their techno-industrial economies, except their predicament is arguably a little bit keener than ours is, since they have hardly any oil and natural gas of their own to run things on, and suffer terrible uncertainty about who will furnish it for them. If they had not gone out of their minds over what has turned out to be a pretty punk-ass virus — when treated early with a menu of cheaply available drugs — and hadn’t deified the false savior vaccines, they might be a whole lot more concerned about how they are going to heat their homes, fertilize their crops, and produce things of value — in short, remain civilized.
The catch is, they’ve given themselves until February to enforce their foolish vaccine mandates. The Omicron variant may help, too, since it is proving so far to be a grossly over-hyped development, discrediting the paranoia ginned up in the media. Can their courts act as ours have and put a stop to the madness? Between now and then we’re likely to see the defeat of the mass formation psychosis in America, at least, as the country is forced to face the truth of what it has done to itself.
Or, at least it will be the end of this chapter of that story. Perhaps the Europeans will snap out of it, too, as they see the narrative collapse in America. Or are they just too far gone? Standing by on developments.
From Martin Armstrong at Armstrong Economics Blog:
Dr. Peter McCullough, a top cardiologist in his field, has warned that myocarditis due to the vaccine is “way more serious” than myocarditis contracted from the virus itself. Myocarditis, or heart muscle inflammation, is a side effect of both COVID and the mRNA vaccine. The difference is that the ailment produced by the natural infection tends to elevate troponin levels, according to Dr. McCullough, which is a protein found in cardiac and skeletal muscle. “[T]he myocarditis in COVID-19 is mild, it’s inconsequential, and it’s largely a component of election [of troponin].”
In contrast, contracting the ailment through the vaccine may cause lipid nanoparticles to go directly to the heart, the doctor stated. “The heart expresses the spike protein, the body attacks the heart. There are dramatic EKG changes. I don’t want anybody to think that the myocarditis of a natural infection is anything like what we’re seeing with the vaccines,” the top cardiologist warned.

| Why would anyone demand that children 19 yo and younger get the Covid Vaccine?? |
From Real Science:
It is definitely not normal for young athletes to suffer from cardiac arrests or to die while playing their sport, but this year it is happening. All of these heart issues and deaths come shortly after they got a COVID shot. While it is possible this can happen to people who did not get a COVID shot, the sheer numbers clearly point to the only obvious cause.
The so-called health professionals running the COVID shot programs around the world keep repeating that “the COVID shot is a normal vaccine and it is safe and effective.”
Here is a non-exhaustive and continuously growing list of young athletes
who had major medical issues in 2021 after receiving one or more COVID
shots. Initially, many of these were not reported. We know that many
people were told not to tell anyone about their adverse reactions and
the media was not reporting them. They started happening after the first
COVID vaccinations. The mainstream media still are not reporting most,
but sports news cannot ignore the fact that soccer players and other
stars collapse in the middle of a game due to a heart attack. Many of
those die – about 50%.
The List is found here. The 305 death toll is really up until November 1, 2021, Many more deaths need to be added to the list.
Also, 9 bodybuilders died in 2021 who were vaccinated. See here and scroll way down. About 100 young vaccinated athletes are on that same list. Also see the number of physicians dying on that same list.
And then there's this from Stephen Kirsch's Newletter at Substack: A VERY high rate of airline pilot deaths in 2021.
From Phil Butler at New Eastern Outlook h/t to ZeroHedge:
Let us talk plainly about the end of the world as we have known it for generations. A dark age is on the horizon, and there’s precious little time for humanity to prevent an unprecedented catastrophe. In the words of a great statesman from this era, “The cost of ill-conceived social experiments is sometimes beyond estimation.” And the experiment we in the world find ourselves in now will certainly end in a dystopian nightmare.
Russia’s president Vladimir Putin was recently making a case that western civilization is on the brink of collapse during a discussion at the recent Valdai Club meeting. I’ve read through his remarks, which are not just spot on, but deeply prophetic. Putin likened the Woke situation and the gender fluidity nonsense in America to what happened when the Bolcheviks took over in 1917. Putin said:
“After the 1917 revolution, the Bolsheviks, relying on the dogmas of Marx and Engels, also said that they would change existing ways and customs and not just political and economic ones, but the very notion of human morality and the foundations of a healthy society. The destruction of age-old values, religion and relations between people, up to and including the total rejection of family (we had that, too), encouragement to inform on loved ones — all this was proclaimed progress and, by the way, was widely supported around the world back then and was quite fashionable, same as today.”
[Doug here, Putin should know very well of these things, don't you think?
Putin may not be aware that the word
"Woke" is an African American slang word for their "social justice" victimhood bullshit. Virtually anything "black" means near total ignorance, failed thinking, lack of logic, a cultural collapse, and being wrong about everything. So, "Woke" really equals "stupid," "dumb" and/or "wrong."
Our new "woke culture," thanks to evil Democrats, has decided to elevate things "Black," "Black" ideas and impose "Blackness" (ie., "Wokeness") as superior to our real Eurocentric (White) heritage and culture. It's essentially putting Blacks in charge. It's really an imposition of an "un-culture" because of the "fact" that everyone is equal, right? But Blacks are not intellectually equal. Also see my posts "When Blacks Are In Charge,""When Blacks and Democrats Are In Charge,""Woke" is Black Hatred of White Civilization," and " Woke-ism is a Con Job."
Of course it will lead to collapse! We are literally like the new ANC-led South Africa, run by Marxists/Bolsheviks/Blacks. And South Africa is literally collapsing into violence and ruin as we speak. This is our suicidal path. ]
The ideas Putin exerts here are super important for understanding the state of our world today. In America, for instance, people do not care to draw lines of distinction between socialism and communism, and most have no idea who the Bolsheviks were, let alone the parallels with happenings in America today. The looming dictatorship hovering over my country now, is as invisible to the average American as the Nikolas II and his family being gunned down in Yekaterinburg. The moral fiber of my country is ripped even farther than War torn and destitute Russia was at the time of the revolution. Forces and ideas similar to those of Vladimir Lenin are now working to shred what’s left of western civilization.
His commentary on degradation western values came as a warning of further disjointedness and trouble. He cited the COVID-19 pandemic experience, much in the same way many of us have, but adding that global governance institutions need “fine tuning” instead of proclaiming these institutions as total failures. Here on the ground in Greece, however, the fact that leadership has failed to tackle the challenges posed by the dynamics of global processes is acute. Short version, Mr. Putin was actually "playing nice" in his commentary at the Valdai conference. Still, the Russian leader’s observations carry an ominous message and repercussions for most Americans. Putin continued:
“Some people in the West believe that an aggressive elimination of entire pages from their own history, ‘reverse discrimination’ against the majority in the interests of a minority, and the demand to give up the traditional notions of mother, father, family and even gender, they believe that all of these are the mileposts on the path towards social renewal.”
Once again, Russia’s president was gentle in his assessment of the Woke trends raging in America. He called the huge shift in morality and tradition “structural disruptions,” rather than referring to the decimation of the family unit and a way of life for what it really is. He was more vehement where children are concerned, a soft spot we’ve seen from the Russian leader many times. He referred to gender destruction for kids as “truly monstrous things when children are taught from an early age that a boy can easily become a girl and vice versa.” He went on to observe that children are being able to “determine” such life changing things without so much as a consultation with a child psychologist. But for us observing the horrors, only one question really matters. Is Vladimir Putin right? Is the liberal order engaged in “crimes against humanity?”
Many in my country, perhaps even a majority, believe that Donald Trump losing to Joe Biden was a fundamental shift away from any sense of conservatism. And whether or not Americans like the former president or not, nothing about the new order is either moderate or conservative at its core. Like Bolshevism, the far left standing behind Joe Biden aims to usurp America’s core value proposition and call it “liberty.” The social experiment America is now going through, will end up in another type of holocaust. Interestingly, publicist PaweÅ‚ JÄ™drzejewski at Salon 24 in Poland, characterizes American “wokeness” in this way:
“Wokeness in the United States is characterized by everything that marked these phenomena in history, such as the fanaticism of religious wars during the counter-reformation, the amok of absolute faith and obedience to Stalin during the Stalinist terror, the brutality of the Maoist “cultural revolution” in China in the second half of the sixties of the twentieth century.”
The publicist and advocate of the ideas of Emil Fackenheim goes on to say that this current trend is a process for breaking with any rational and logical thinking, and a “complete submission to feelings, first of all, hatred of the existing world, without any restrictions whatsoever. It is not about strategy, nor about achieving change – it is about its absolute extremism, fanaticism, and a path to the end of days. The goal is to completely destroy what western civilization is based on and replace it with chaos.
The reader will find it interesting that a disciple of a Jewish philosopher, Russia’s president, and a Georgia boy from America’s south share a common fear. Emil Fackenheim, for those unfamiliar, was a reform rabbi who fought to prevent what some referred to as a “posthumous victory for Hitler.” I’ve no space here to go into a new moral imperative for Judaism crystallized in the “614th commandment” (or “614th mitzvah”). The point of my citing JÄ™drzejewski is to show the battle lines have no national or regional borders. The ideas being decimated in my country and elsewhere, by those who would destroy our future, they’re an ideological war declaration. This is why Putin, and if we’re accurate the majority of the Russian people, are so adamantly against these “woke’ upheavals. Russians already experienced what happens “next” if the liberal order succeeds.
Right now, you can already witness a new “Kristallnacht” (or the Night of Broken Glass) taking shape not in Nazi Germany, but in the United States of America. And you don’t have to fly to New York or LA to see. On Facebook people are being accused of “not being sufficiently ‘awake’ – or in some circles your “wokeness” is not authentic, as JÄ™drzejewski suggests. Mr. Putin, contrary to what liberal media propagates, is probably the best friend America and the rest of the westerners ever had. I’d like to see their arguments, their proof, that Vladmir Putin is wrong in all this. History is on his side. Rational thinking is. And for the believers around the world, God must be as well. What we are discussing here is the apocalypse, and nothing short of that.
The purge this time around will won’t be yellow stars of David painted on people and places, it will be geocoordinates and rounding up dissenters. The Wokeness army aims for something you could call “Day Zero” when the future and past of humanity are “recalibrated.” This is not some grass roots movement, but a top-down idealistic schism that took root in academia, to be funded by lunatic elites who believe a moral Armageddon is in their best interest. Victor Davis Hanson of the Hoover institute calls these ideas; “bastard offshoots of harebrained “critical theory,” which arose from a demoralized and adrift Europe after the cataclysms of two devastating European-spawned world wars.”
So, you see how the irony highlights the situation when even Russophobes support the same logic as Russia’s vilified leader. And, no, this is not about Trump being a Putin puppet. The truth is far from that. Trump, in my view, is the Manchucian Candidate of the liberal order. I’ve discussed this previously. What is crucial now is for sanity to prevail over demoralizing, nonsensical rule. We must defeat chaos and put in place what Putin refers to as reasonable conservatism as the foundation for a political course” for the future. Sanity must prevail, in other words. Humanity does not need right or left extremist ideologies going forward. We all know the ends of these methods. As time and problems grow more critical, the world needs pragmatism and cooperation, not more chaos. If we are to avoid the darkest age ever, or perhaps even the ultimate end, we have to come to our senses now.

From Paul Craig Roberts: Letter from Marc. G. Wathelet, PhD, Molecular Biology and Immunology, to the Belgian Minister of Health
1) The lethality of COVID19 is on par with that of other common respiratory viruses:
Data from Pr. John Ioannidis, Stanford University
IFR = infection fatality ratio (IFR) is the percentage of deaths resulting from infection. For example, in the table below, 99.9973% of children and teenagers aged 0-19 years infected with COVID19 survived with an IFR of only 0.0027% (1 death in 37037 infections!)
These data are without early treatments, which would reduce even further the lethality and prevent the development of long COVID. Therefore, no exceptional measures should be required.
2) 99% of COVID deaths have at least one comorbidity, 95% have multiple comorbidity, according to CDC data:
(click to enlarge)
Therefore, people without comorbidities are not at risk, or at extremely low risk, of dying from this disease.
3) The COVID-19 vaccine’s effects on contamination wane rapidly, are
minor at best and even promote contamination early after the jab.
Therefore the C19 vaccines are useless if not counterproductive for controlling contaminations by this virus.
4) The viral load is indistinguishable between vaccinated and
non-vaccinated during the first 5 days, the period of time during which
most of the transmission takes place. Vaccinated individuals are less
respectful of behavior recommendations to limit spread of the virus,
falsely believing they cannot carry the virus and cannot contaminate
other people.
Therefore the C19 vaccines are not only useless but counterproductive for controlling transmission of this virus.
5) Herd immunity has not been achieved even in the countries with
extremely high vaccination rates and is simply impossible with the leaky
vaccines used. In addition, natural infections of SARS-CoV-2 have been
reported in pet dogs and cats among others, indicating that the COVID19
virus can survive in pet animals in addition to humans.
Therefore, increasing vaccination coverage will not allow us to control the spread of this virus.
6) New data show that vaccination promotes the generation of new
variants, as evolutionary theory had
predicted. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34873910/
Therefore, vaccinating during a pandemic will be counterproductive and
only lead to the emergence of new variants resistant to the vaccination.
7) All pharmacovigilance data indicate a much higher rate of severe
adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines compared to all other vaccines
(e.g. ~30X in the VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Effects Resporting System)) and
of death (e.g., ~60X in VAERS). Established in 1990, the Vaccine
Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is a national early warning
system to detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines.
VAERS is co-managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Audit of VAERS
data indicate that the vaccine can be excluded as the cause of death for
only 14% of deaths consecutive to COVID-19 vaccination.
Pharmacovigilance is passive and only captures a small fraction of
adverse reactions, resulting in underreporting of adverse effects
typically ranging from 90 to 99% in several independent studies.
Therefore C19 vaccination presents a serious risk to one’s health, including invalidity and death.
8) A very large Israeli study compared the outcomes of COVID19
infection between non-vaccinated Israelis with natural immunity from
previous infection with Israelis who had been vaccinated
twice. The
researchers found for the vaccinated group a 13-fold increased risk for
breakthrough infection with the Delta variant, a 7-fold increased risk
for symptomatic disease and a greater risk for
COVID-19-related-hospitalizations compared to those that were previously
infected, but unvaccinated.
Therefore, the Israeli researchers concluded that natural immunity
confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection,
against symptomatic disease and against hospitalization caused by the
Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to two-dose vaccine-induced
immunity.
9) From a bioethics standpoint, the risk of invalidity and death to a
healthy recipient of a vaccine requires that he/she must have the
choice to accept or reject the vaccine.
Therefore, without free will no valid consent exists and enforced inoculations amount to battery or assault in law.
10) From a medical deontology standpoint, all medical
treatments require informed consent and therefore vaccination should
never be mandatory, especially for vaccines that are still experimental
and for which we don’t know their middle and long term consequences on
health.
Therefore, coercing medical treatment against a patient’s will destroys professional trust and the doctor-patient relationship.
11) From a moral standpoint, the Nuremberg code was devised precisely
to prohibit any kind of medical experimentation without the consent of
the subject.
Therefore, enforced medical interventions against an individual’s free
will has been judged criminal since the Nuremberg trials in Germany
after the end of World War 2.
12) From a legal standpoint, as demonstrated by Alessandro Negroni, professor of philosophy of law at the University of Genoa. “In light of European and international law, genetic anti-covid vaccines constitute a medical experiment on human beings. From an ethical as well as a legal point of view, no one can be obliged to submit to a form of medical experimentation in the absence of free and informed consent.” http://www.mediaplus.site/2021/10/09/les-vaccins-genetiques-anti-covid-sont-une-forme-dexperimentation-medicale/
13) From a political/historical standpoint, it is obvious to many observers that the “Covid crisis” is used to force political changes to liberal democracies against the will of the people towards a totalitarian regime that tramples on human rights, civil liberties and the rule of law. Christine Anderson, member of the European parliament, said “I’m a German, and we once asked our grandparents how they could have just stood by in silence, allowing a horrific totalitarian regime to come about.”
