Kamala Stopped FBI From Monitoring Black Supremacists Like Waukesha Killer

The Waukesha killer’s allies are sitting in the White House.

Daniel Greenfield is a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center specializing in investigative reporting on the Left and Islamic terrorism.

Two years ago, Senator Kamala Harris, along with Senator Cory Booker and six other Democrat Senate members, attacked the Justice Department for monitoring black supremacists. The politicians signed a letter falsely claiming that black identity extremists was “a fabricated term based on a faulty assessment of a small number of isolated incidents”.

And they argued that monitoring black racists was racist.

When Kamala Harris was running for president, the privileged daughter of wealthy foreign students falsely claimed that she faced segregation in Berkeley, California.

“That little girl was me,” she famously declared.

In Waukesha, Jackson Sparks, an 8-year-old boy, was killed by the black supremacist terrorist whom Kamala Harris had protected.

That little boy’s blood is on her hands.

Kamala had joined a crusade by Senator Cory Booker to pressure the FBI to eliminate the black identity extremists category and stop tracking terror attacks by black supremacists.

Later that same year, two devotees of the Black Hebrew Israelite hate group, a racist and antisemitic cult, opened fire at a Kosher market in Jersey City. The black supremacist terror attack killed the store owner, an employee, and a customer.

An unexploded bomb in their van could have killed people a distance of five football fields away.

Even though the terrorist attack happened in Senator Booker’s state, he refused to acknowledge that the black supremacist hate he had protected was responsible.

Booker had previously berated FBI Director Christopher Wray for monitoring black racists.

“That language you said, both ends of the spectrum, the murders at synagogues, the murders we've seen motivated,” he ranted. “You said both ends of the spectrum as if there actually is a movement of black identity extremism: it's almost creating this reality.”

Another Black Hebrew Israelite terrorist attacker went on to attack a Monsey synagogue during Chanukah, slashing worshipers with a machete, wounding 4, and killing one.

A 72-year-old Chassidic Jew who had been born in Hungary after the Holocaust tried to fight him off with his cane. The black supremacist killer smashed in his skull with a machete.

A Green Party candidate and "respected civil rights attorney" fought for the racist killer who got off, despite having googled "Why did Hitler hate the Jews" and "New York City Increases Police Presence in Jewish Neighborhoods After Possible Anti-Semitic Attacks. Here's What To Know."

The Black Hebrew Israelite cult’s "Why did Hitler hate the Jews" meme reappeared again in the internet history of another black supremacist killer.

Darrell Brooks, who drove his car into the Waukesha Christmas Parade, killing 6 people, including an 8-year-old boy, had previously posted a variation of the same Black Hebrew Israelite meme claiming that Hitler was killing Jews to support the black supremacists.

While Kamala and Booker intimidated the Justice Department and law enforcement officials, the media had celebrated the vile racists. The New York Times described the Black Hebrew Israelites as “sidewalk ministers” who practice “tough love” while dismissing their racist rants as “blunt and sometimes offensive language.”

Typical of this “tough love” and “blunt” language was declaring, "The Holocaust is a damn joke! Heil Hitler!" and  “The Messiah, who is a black man, is going to kill you”.

The media’s laborious whitewashing of the Black Hebrew Israelite hate cult began when it falsely accused Covington Catholic students in D.C. for a pro-life rally of racism when they were assailed by racial slurs from members of the BHI hate group. The Washington Post, which would end up settling a lawsuit over its false reporting, claimed that "Israelite street preaching in parts of D.C., Philadelphia and New York is commonplace, a familiar if odd accent to city life."

According to the Bezos paper, “Heil Hitler” adds a ”familiar if odd accent to city life”.

Rep. Ilhan Omar, who could never resist antisemites and racists, falsely claimed that the slandered students were “taunting 5 Black men”.

There is a direct line from the New York Times and the Washington Post’s lies about the Black Hebrew Israelites, the suppression of FBI efforts to track black supremacist terrorists, to the rising tide of BHI violence including a machete attack on a random white family last year.

Tragedy was averted in North Carolina when the Black Hebrew Israelite attacker, who had been lying in wait behind the house, grappled with the husband while the wife returned to the house, got a gun, and opened fire, forcing the would-be killer to run for his life.

What began with the media’s lies about Covington escalated to growing acts of terrorism until it reached its pinnacle with the Waukesha Christmas Parade massacre by a racist killer who had cited the hateful teachings of the black supremacist Black Hebrew Israelite movement.

Where was the FBI?

Senate Democrats had forbidden the FBI from monitoring black supremacist terror groups. And the FBI had put political correctness over public safety by bowing to their racial dictates.

Booker had grilled FBI Director Christopher Wray over efforts to prevent black supremacist terror. “So, you no longer use the term Black Identity Extremism,” he had gloated. “That's great news.”

Great news for Booker’s black nationalism meant mass death for Jews and Christians.

“So nobody is being investigated or surveilled under black identity extremism?” Booker had demanded.

No one was. And that’s why the Jersey City Kosher supermarket massacre and the Waukesha Christmas massacre happened with no interference from the FBI. After the hearing, Booker issued a press release urging, “Director Wray to issue updated guidance notifying law enforcement agencies about the elimination of this misleading designation.”

Black supremacism, this “misleading designation” which Democrats claim doesn’t exist, keeps killing people, police officers in Dallas, Jews in New Jersey, and Christians in Waukesha.

When Kamala Harris joined Booker’s crusade to protect black supremacists from the FBI, she helped pave the way for the brutal killings carried out by these racist killers and terrorists.

Democrats frequently accused President Trump of protecting white supremacists. Despite these false claims, the DOJ and FBI never stopped tracking or investigating white racist terrorists.

That was not true of black supremacist terrorists.

Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and other Democrats are on record as suppressing FBI investigations of the kinds of black supremacist hate that led to the Waukesha massacre.

Even now the same media that began by lying about Black Hebrew Israelite hate when smearing the Covington Catholic students is back to lying about the killer in Waukesha.

The lies must end.

Republicans must have the guts to name the hateful black supremacist ideology behind the racist terrorist killings across the country and to denounce Kamala Harris and Democrats for protecting their racist allies. Like Islamic terrorism, black nationalist terrorism happens because law enforcement is prevented from doing its job by the Democrat political allies of the terrorists.

Waukesha was not an “incident”. It was a massacre. It was not committed by an “SUV”, but by a racist black supremacist terrorist. Its accomplices are sitting in the White House right now.

Biden and Kamala issued statements on the Arbery verdict. Biden had previously issued a statement condemning the Rittenhouse verdict. Neither of them has issued statements about the massacre of six Americans by a racist terrorist. Democrats have adopted the critical race theory ideology which, like the racist killer, causes them to believe white people aren’t human.

That’s what Black Lives Matter means. Black lives matter. No one else’s lives matter.

PENNSYLVANIA: Senate GOP Candidate DR. MEHMET OZ No Wizard When It Comes to Guns

MARCH 6, 2022 UPDATE; SEE: https://americanfaith.com/dr-ozs-ties-to-pharma-tech-complicate-anti-corporate-campaign-claims/

CARPETBAGGER, Dr. Oz on Pennsylvania Senate bid: 'We're in a great crisis'

WILL HE UPHOLD THE SECOND AMENDMENT, THE FEDERAL & STATE CONSTITUTIONS; OR IS SHARIA HIS PREFERENCE? WILL HE TAKE ORDERS FROM ERDOGAN, THE TURKISH MUSLIM CALIPHATE LEADER?

 "ALL FOR VACCINES" BECAUSE OF TRUMP APPOINTMENT

WIKIPEDIA EXCERPTS:

Donald Trump's 2018 appointment of Oz to the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition was criticized as an example of choosing "pundits over experts"

Oz grew up in a mixed Muslim environment where his father's family practiced more traditional Islam, while his mother's family were more secular Muslims.  As a child, he spent summers in Turkey.

In late 2020, Oz changed his voter registration to the home of his in-laws in Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania. His website lists his home as Bryn Athyn.

On November 30, 2021, Oz announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for the United States Senate seat in Pennsylvania in 2022, shortly after moving from New Jersey. He is registered to vote at an address in Montgomery County which is a home owned by his mother-in-law

Oz is fluent in English and Turkish. He is a holder of Turkish and American citizenship, having served in the Turkish Army to retain his Turkish citizenship.

Oz is a Muslim, and says that he has been influenced by the mysticism of Sufi Muslims from central Turkey, as well as the ideas of Emanuel Swedenborg, the 18th-century Swedish theologian.

Oz is a practitioner of transcendental meditation. "When I meditate, I go to that place where truth lives," he said.

AS PER NEW AGE MYSTIC, OPRAH WINFREY, HE STATES BELOW:

WE NEED TO "SEE THE DIVINE SPARK IN EVERYONE AGAIN"

WIKIPEDIA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehmet_Oz

QUOTE: "The British Medical Journal published a study that found more than half of the recommendations on medical talk series including The Dr. Oz Show either had no evidence or contradicted medical research."

Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz discusses COVID-19 'authoritarianism' and argues America's values are under attack on 'Fox & Friends.'

Update: Since publishing this article, Dr. Mehmet Oz has announced he is running for the US Senate in Pennsylvania as a Republican.

His close friendship and professional relationship with major March for Our Lives donor Oprah Winfrey, along with his personal advocacy for citizen disarmament laws, should be enough for Pennsylvania gun owners to tell GOP political strategists that, his fame and fortune notwithstanding, Dr. Oz is a non-starter with them as a Senate candidate. (Dr. Mehmet Oz/Facebook)

U.S.A. – -(Ammoland.com)- “Celebrity surgeon Mehmet Oz is poised to shake up the Pennsylvania Senate race, bolstered by a vast personal fortune to invest in a 2022 campaign and enviable poll numbers that suggest the Republican would be an immediate front-runner,” the Washington Examiner reported Wednesday. “Oz, 61, has not decided whether to pull the trigger on a bid for the seat being relinquished by retiring Republican Sen. Pat Toomey. But if the television personality runs, he is prepared to back the effort with millions of his own money and would begin a campaign for the GOP nomination with stratospheric ratings among key demographics, a source close to Oz revealed in an interview…”

To bolster the enthusiasm, the report tells readers Oz “is on good terms with former President Donald Trump and has been friends with the former president for 15 years. Indeed, Trump appointed Oz to the President’s Council on Physical Fitness, which included among its members a 2022 Senate candidate who has already received the former president’s endorsement…”

The biggest objection seems to be “culturally conservative pockets of central and western Pennsylvania” may object to Oz moving from New Jersey to Philadelphia “only about a year ago,” leaving him vulnerable to being seen as a “carpetbagger.”

That’s hardly the only one, and the lack of any acknowledgment on how the right to keep and bear arms may influence Pennsylvania GOP choices shows, among other things, DC establishment blinders on Examiner political reporting.

With Toomey taking himself out of the picture, Pennsylvania gun owners have a chance to right some serious Republican wrongs the Party has foisted on them for years. We’re talking about a politician of “Manchin/Toomey” notoriety who “earned” an endorsement from the Giffords gun grab group, and who has been trying for years to enact “bipartisan” infringements. I’ve compiled a partial chronicling of his giving aid and comfort to the enemy (and if you don’t believe that’s what they are you haven’t been paying attention) over at The War on Guns blog, along with other examples of subversive PA GOP offerings like Arlen Specter and Tom Ridge.

Oz will be Toomey on steroids. When it comes to guns, he’ll be able to look at the outgoing senator and say, “Hold my beer.” Among examples it took me mere seconds to find:

“How does this chick come on Dr. Oz all pro-red flag, and go on Liz Wheeler all pro-2A? I’m genuinely confused.”

That Oz, of Turkish ancestry, does not concede genocide by the Ottomans that was partially enabled via a permitting scheme, registration lists, and possession bans is obvious. The other concern all voters should have is with his dual citizenship. As I warned when the GOP was trying to foist another popular “dual citizen” celebrity on Republican voters, gun- (and maid-) grabbing “action hero” Arnold Schwarzenegger:

There’s another oath Arnold took, back in 1983, when he became an American citizen:

“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen… But there’s a problem: Arnold apparently never really meant it (any more than he would the governor’s oath) and pulled strings with the Austrian government to retain his citizenship there, as well. This despite the fact that the government of Austria “[i]n general… does not allow dual citizenship…Thus, if a person acquires US citizenship, he/she usually has to renounce the actual citizenship he/she is holding.”

The problem reaches beyond Austrian law. According to Kurzban’s Immigration Law Sourcebook, “The U.S. government has generally looked with disfavor on United States Citizens maintaining dual nationality.” Indeed, the US Department of State cautions that “dual nationals owe allegiance to both the United States and the foreign country.”

Beltway swamp schemers who know nothing of principles and for whom the only consideration is an “R” after a winning politician’s name will try to exploit Oz’s fame and fortune to get him in the Senate, and the rights of gun owners be damned. They’re already exploiting his cordial relationship with Donald Trump (and if the former president backs him that will tell all but the most self-deluded “3D chess” apologists all they need to know).

Don’t let Party strategists get away with this.

If Pennsylvania gun owners do, they may as well elect a “gun sense candidate” Democrat, because this guy will vote for every disarmament bill that comes across his desk, assuming he isn’t the one initiating them. Oz will use his “advise and consent” role to confirm officials and judges hostile to your rights and loyal only to their Big Club interests.

Oz will definitely give you the feeling you’re not in the Founders’ Republic anymore. Throw a bucket of water on this now.

The ‘Islamophobia’ Industry’s Attempt to Shut Down All Criticism of Islam

BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS

SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/11/the-islamophobia-industrys-attempt-to-shut-down-all-criticism-of-islam;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

In Diane Weber Bederman’s latest book, The Islamophobia Industry: The Insidious Infiltration of Islam into the West, she provides an essential reality check about the “Islamophobia” industry’s aim to shut down all criticism of Islam, while propagating the irrational and damaging view of Islam as a “race.”

By now, it should be well understood that freedom of expression in free societies incorporates the right to offend. One does not have the same right to offend Islam and Muslim sensibilities in Sharia states, or even in many majority-Muslim countries. In the current era, the Muslim Brotherhood, supported by its affiliates and Islamic countries such as Qatar, has infiltrated free societies at every level, working to instill a fear of criticizing the Islamic ideology. Diane Bederman effectively points out that by means of an “islamophobia” industry that is handsomely funded from abroad, there is an aggressive push to silence anyone who criticizes or questions any aspect of Islam.

Bederman’s book explains how the “Islamophobia” industry has managed to insidiously dominate the anti-racism network, attempting to turn Islam, a religion and a political ideology, into a race. She also warns about the manipulation of lawfare in order to stop criticism of Islam which is deemed “offensive,” “racist,” and “hateful,” and thus contrary to human rights.

Diane Weber Bederman is a multifaith-endorsed, hospital-trained chaplain with a background in science and the humanities. She is a columnist and blogger who is passionate about religion, ethics, politics, and mental health. She is also the author of The Serpent and the Red Thread: The Definitive Biography of Evil and Back to the Ethic: Reclaiming Western Values. I had a few questions of my own for Ms Bederman:

What motivated you to write this book?

We are experiencing a rise in Jew-hatred across the world. There are those who say it is coming from the right; white supremacists and Nazism, but in fact, it is coming from the left and Islam. While researching Jew-hatred, which is shared in Islam, I learned more about Islamophobia; the “irrational” fear of Islam and that we must never criticize Islam. Yet, at the same time, Islam criticizes the West.

Take for example: Mazin AbdulAdhim,  a prominent Canadian Muslim scholar and Imam of Iraqi descent and affiliated with the pro-Caliphate Islamic global movement of Hizb ut-Tahrir shared this January 17, 2019, on his Facebook page:

“In terms of morality, the West is absolutely a cesspool of corruption and depravity.” 

It is a common phenomenon to compare the so-called “far-right” with Nazism today, which is peculiar given that Hitler’s party was the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. In recent times, it is telling that the Nazi flag has been raised in Gaza. You wrote a chapter entitled: “What Did Islam Learn From Nazism?” Can you tell us about those lessons and how, in your view, they have had an impact upon antisemitism today?

Jew-hatred was spread far and wide long before Hitler came to power. Jew hatred in Germany was shared by theologians, professors, in the media, in government and through antisemitic associations. Today, Jew-hatred from the left and right have come together, sharing this common hatred. Like Nazism, Islam has infiltrated our universities, media, government, and sadly, too many share hate; for Jews and Christians.

I provide these examples in my book:

Imam Raed Saleh Al-Rousan, from Tajweed Institute Islamic Center in Houston, Texas preached and posted on Youtube and Facebook the full hadith in Arabic calling for the murder of Jews: “The Muslims will kill the Jews, and the Jews will hide behind the stones and the trees, and the stones and the trees will say: Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him, except for the Gharqad tree, which is one of their trees.” He is not alone.

Omar Suleiman the founder and president of the Dallas-based Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research wrote on his Facebook page, “God willing on this blessed night as the 3rd Intifada begins, the beginning of the end of Zionism is here. May Allah help us overcome this monster, protect the innocent of the world, and accept the murdered as martyrs.”

He wrote on Facebook in 2015, ““Want to know what its [sic] like to live under Nazis? Look no further than how the Palestinians are treated daily by apartheid Israel.”  Suleiman is also a supporter of the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement against Israel.

And then there is Canadian Imam Younus Kathrada of the Muslim Youth of Victoria Islamic Center, British Columbia, Canada. Here are his words following the fall of Afghanistan and its takeover by the Taliban, August 20, 2021:

Kathrada emphasized that the Jews and Christians are the enemies of the Muslims. He prayed to Allah to grant victory to the mujahideen who wage Jihad in Afghanistan and success to the “brothers” in establishing shari’a.

“The [Jews and Christians] are willing to spend mountains of gold in order to take us away from Islam…”They will attack what is most sacred to us. But all of that [which] they do is only a small portion of what is really in their hearts, of the hatred that they have towards us in their hearts…” 

“Do not think that the Jews and Christians are our friends – they are our enemies…” 

Is it any wonder that hatred for Jews, antisemitism, is on the rise when it comes from the right and the left?

You highlight the fact that educating the West is key. There are many who have paid a dear price for trying to educate the public about how we are losing our freedoms in the face of Islamic supremacist incursions. In your view, how could a broader range of citizens aid in this battle to defend all our freedoms?

Too many, today, live in fear; mostly of being canceled, attacked by friends and family for sharing views that have been deemed racist. Islamic supremacists have managed to convince us that Islam is a “race,” since they know that it is unacceptable for Westerners to criticize anyone based on race. But Islam is not a race. It is a religion with core ideologies that are not compatible with Western Values.  The Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) has stated, as I point out in my book:  “The political system of Islam is totally incompatible with western democracy.” Freedom is not “free.” It must be protected.

That the West is open and tolerant and inclusive does not mean that we should be open to ideologies that are diametrically opposed to our values. It takes courage to speak up, to fight for our values. Our grandparents fought for our freedom in wars oversees. Our freedom is under attack, here. We must fight, here, for our children and grandchildren, to protect our institutions and our values or the West will fall.

I have shared facts about Islam and its insidious infiltration into the West. Learn them and fight back. Do not fear, for fear leads to submission and your silence is collusion.

Diane Bederman’s exposé captures the urgency of understanding the threat to all freedoms from a doctrine that has infiltrated every layer of Western society. The Islamophobia Industry: The Insidious Infiltration of Islam into the West can be ordered HERE.

Judge Halts Vax Mandate for Healthcare Workers in 10 States

BY VERONIKA KYRYLENKO

SEE: https://thenewamerican.com/judge-halts-vax-mandate-for-healthcare-workers-in-10-states/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

A federal judge in Missouri has halted President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for healthcare workers at the Medicare- and Medicaid-affiliated facilities in 10 states, saying that it would require approval from the U.S. Congress, which was never received. In addition to that, the government violated the legal procedure when issuing the rule that would likely cause the states “irreparable harm.”

U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Schelp issued a preliminary injunction on Monday, blocking the Interim Final Rule issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) stating that nearly all workers employed by healthcare facilities must have received at least a first dose of the COVID vaccine by December 6 or face losing their jobs.

Judge Schelp argued that the plaintiffs, namely, the states of Missouri, Nebraska, Arkansas, Kansas, Iowa, Wyoming, Alaska, South Dakota, North Dakota, and New Hampshire are “likely to succeed in their argument that Congress has not provided CMS the authority to enact the regulation at issue here.” He wrote,

“[A]n agency literally has no power to act, let alone pre-empt the validly enacted legislation of a sovereign State, unless and until Congress confers power upon it.”… While the Court agrees Congress has authorized the Secretary of Health and Human Services general authority to enact regulations for the “administration” of Medicare and Medicaid and the “health and safety” of recipients, the nature and breadth of the CMS mandate requires clear authorization from Congress — and Congress has provided none.

The judge further argued that the CMS violated so-called notice and comment requirements, which also serves as grounds for invalidating the rule.

On that matter, the court documents say that CMS’s own delay undermines its “emergency” justification for bypassing notice and comment requirements:

The CMS mandate was announced nearly two months before the agency released it, and the mandate itself prominently features yet another one-month delay…. [S]ince the onset of COVID, CMS has issued five IFC mandates, such as the one here…. One could query how an “emergency” could prompt such a slow response; such delay hardly suggests a situation so dire that CMS may dispense with notice and comment requirements.

Second, CMS failed to meet its “good cause” burden, which is a serious violation of legal procedure, “especially in light of the unprecedented, controversial, and health-related nature of the mandate.”

Further, the judge concluded the plaintiffs are likely to succeed in establishing that the mandate is “arbitrary or capricious” for several reasons:
  • CMS lacks evidence showing that vaccination status has a direct impact on spreading COVID in the mandate’s covered healthcare facilities — the fact which the agency confirmed itself.
  • CMS improperly rejected alternatives to the mandate, such as regular testing, nor did it exclude workers with the natural immunity from the rule.
  • The mandate is way too broad in its scope, which renders it arbitrary.
  • CMS failed to adequately explain its contradiction to its long-standing practice of encouraging rather than forcing vaccination of healthcare workers. When an agency departs from its regular policy, it must show “good reasons for the new policy,” which CMS failed to do. The agency confirmed that the vaccines’ effectiveness to prevent disease transmission by those vaccinated is not currently known.
  • CMS failed to consider or properly weigh the necessary reliance interests of the medical facilities, healthcare workers, and patients. If it did, it would see the “evidence showing that the mandate threatens devastating consequences to healthcare providers, staff, and patients throughout the nation,” per the ruling.

If the mandate is not halted, the judge said the plaintiffs will likely suffer irreparable harm: Plaintiffs would be harmed because they could not enforce their duly enacted laws and because the likely harm of the mandate “would be harm in the colloquial sense — pain, suffering, distress,” Schelp wrote.

Schelp agreed with the states that the mandate would lead to staffing shortages in the industry, which, in turn, would have devastating consequences for public health, especially in rural areas. In some cases, “the loss of staffing in many instances will result in no care at all, as some facilities will be forced to close altogether.”

Per the order,

No one questions that protecting patients and health care workers from contracting COVID is a laudable objective. But the court cannot, in good faith, allow CMS to enact an unprecedented mandate that lacks a “rational connection between the facts found and the choice made.”

Halting the CMS mandate is in the public interest, concluded Schelp, saying that

the mandate will have a crippling effect on a significant number of healthcare facilities in Plaintiffs’ states, especially in rural areas, create a critical shortage of services … and jeopardize the lives of numerous vulnerable citizens.

The 10 states, including one led by a Democratic governor, filed a lawsuit against President Joe Biden and key administration officials on November 11, which was covered by The New American here.

The mandate was developed by the CMS and HHS in lieu of President Biden’s order issued September 9. The interim rule was released nearly two months later, on November 5. 

“We’re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated coworkers,” Biden said when announcing his plans of sweeping mandates for the federal workers and contractors, large employers, and medical workers at the Medicare- and Medicaid-affiliated facilities.

ALARMING Study: COVID Regulations, Masking May be DRASTICALLY Lowering Kids’ IQs

ALARMING Study: COVID Regulations, Masking May be DRASTICALLY Lowering Kids’ IQs

BY SELWYN DUKE

SEE: https://thenewamerican.com/alarming-study-covid-regulations-masking-may-be-drastically-lowering-kids-iqs/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

Studies have shown that abused children end up with impaired cognitive functioning. Now consider that kids born shortly before the COVID-19 situation and enduring its regulations also, according to new research, have impaired cognitive functioning.

Perhaps this makes clear why a prominent commentator, and others, said long ago that COVID regulations — masking included — are “child abuse.”

The research in question, out of Brown University in Rhode Island, does in fact identify masking as a possible cause of the cognitive decline, which is severe. The Daily Mail summarizes the story:

  • Face masks and other social distancing measures may in fact impede … children’s development, a new study executed by Brown University has found
  • The probe analyzed the cognitive development of the youngsters through infancy, childhood, and adolescence
  • In the study, researchers first analyzed 1,070 assessments administered on 605 kids prior to March 2020, when COVID lockdowns and masking began
  • A further 154 assessments from 118 kids administered between March 2020 and June 2021, during the height of the pandemic, were then carried out
  • Thirty-nine children born in 2018 and 2019 were analyzed over the course of the pandemic, into 2021.
  • The report found that there was a 23 percent drop in scores measuring kids’ intelligence quotients since the start of the pandemic
  • The study also found similar dips in the same span in regards to developing children’s ability to communicate, both verbally and th[r]ough subtle facial cues

The paper also writes that Brown University

scientists Sean CL Deoni, Jennifer Beauchemin, Alexandra Volpe, and Viren D’Sa, penned the review, in conjunction with the global consulting firm Resonance, collecting data from 1,600 children — and their caregivers — who have been enrolled in the study between the ages of 0 and 5 on a rolling basis. 

The probe analyzed the cognitive development of the youngsters … and looked at how average development scores in three key areas had been affected during the COVID era — with shocking results. 

… The team … carried out checks on three widely accepted measures of child development — the early learning composite (ELC), verbal development quotient (VDQ), and non-verbal development quotient (NVDQ).

A child’s early learning composite is derived from their fine motor, visual reception, receptive, and expressive language scales, and is the early years equivalent to an IQ score.

While IQ is said to be two-thirds heritable, this leaves one-third environmentally influenced. It has long been known, too, that children raised in both material and intellectual poverty have lower IQs than kids in more optimal settings; moreover, it has been shown that lifestyle improvement can cause a group’s IQ to rise precipitously over time.

So what the Brown study indicates is that SARS-CoV-2 regulations may be causing a “lifestyle regression” that could be reversing any IQ gains hard-won via modernity’s triumphs. A 23-percent drop is profound, too.

What’s more, this IQ reversal might have already begun some decades ago (as this study indicates), perhaps owing to what we could loosely call our descent into Idiocracy. Not to be flippant, but given this, the last thing we need is to make people even dumber.

None of this was unpredictable. Last year already, I wrote a piece titled “What Fate Awaits the COVID Kids, a Generation Raised in Isolation and Fear?” in which was discussed the social and psychological risks lockdowns and other COVID Rituals pose to children. (I’ve also reported on the physical health perils inherent in masking kids.) That intellectual impairment might attend this child abuse should be obvious.

It likely was so to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who, reporting in August on an Irish study finding that masking children is bad medicine, called the practice “child abuse.” I have also — on multiple occasions.

Now we may more clearly see why. The Brown researchers point to how “masks worn in public settings and in school or daycare settings may impact a range of early developing skills, such as attachment, facial processing, and socioemotional processing,” relates the Mail, and this certainly is plausible. Yet is there also a simpler, physical-health-oriented factor at work?

I reported in July on research out of Germany and Poland indicating that just minutes of mask-wearing leads to dangerously high carbon dioxide levels in children’s bloodstreams — oxygen deprivation, in other words. And we know, of course, that severe oxygen deprivation (hypoxia), such as in drowning scenarios, can cause brain damage. Hypoxia during childbirth can have this effect as well, and induce conditions such as cerebral palsy.

But what of milder hypoxia? Can it cause reduced cognition? The answer, it appears, is unequivocally yes. Consider that untreated childhood sleep apnea, a condition causing “fragmented sleep, interrupted breathing and oxygen deprivation” is “linked to brain damage [and] lower IQ,” reported Science Daily in 2006.

Note, too, that children with sleep apnea suffer such consequences even though oxygen deprivation occurs only during their hours of slumber. Given this, might the same brain damage and lower-IQ phenomenon manifest themselves when children must endure oxygen deprivation during an equivalent number of waking hours? If so, and if the German/Polish study is correct, it follows that long-term masking of children can lower IQ.

This is just a theory that may or may not be valid (it would be nice seeing some credible research on the subject). But here’s what’s not a theory:

Healthy children’s risk of China virus mortality is essentially zero.

Yet the risks of masking them are real.

Add to this that masking, when prescribed for the general population, does not appear to reduce viral transmission, and a cost-benefit analysis informs that healthy children should not be masked — ever.

Common sense dictates that if our noses and mouths were meant to be covered, we’d be born with a membrane over them. Masking children is as stupid as masks may, tragically, make children become. Just stop.

As for the public officials enforcing mask mandates in defiance of all reason and science, they should be charged with criminal negligence.

Below is a short video on the COVID kids’ reduced cognition.

Iran Preparing to Enrich Uranium to Weapons-Grade Level

Several sources are reporting that the Israeli government informed the Biden administration and its western allies that Iran “is taking technical steps to prepare to enrich uranium to 90% purity — the level needed to produce a nuclear weapon,” according to Axios.

The report comes as Iran and the six nations negotiating with Tehran to reestablish the 2015 nuclear deal are sitting down in Vienna, Austria to discuss ways that the agreement could be reactivated.

Israel has been a strong opponent of the nuclear deal from the start. But they’ve been very accurate in their reporting so far, including uncovering tens of thousands of pages of documents in a daring midnight raid on a warehouse in Tehran that revealed that the Iranian government was still working on the bomb despite their denials.

When it comes to Iran, Israel has impeccable intelligence sources. So would Iran really be so stupid as to invite an attack by the Israelis with U.S. support?

Enrichment alone will not produce a bomb. Estimates vary as to how long it would take Iran to master the additional technological requirements, but U.S. and Israeli intelligence sources have put the timeline at one to two years.

Iran is already enriching uranium to 60%, far beyond the levels allowed under the 2015 nuclear deal that Donald Trump abandoned and President Biden is now attempting to salvage.

There is no civilian use for 90%-enriched uranium.

Iran has been working on a bomb for at least 30 years, so it’s assumed that they already have a bomb design and have simulated an explosion hundreds of times. They know what they have, and they know it will work.

But developing a delivery system is another matter entirely. Fitting a nuclear warhead atop one of their unreliable long-range missiles could be beyond their technological expertise — at the moment.

The intelligence Israel shared with the Biden administration suggests the Iranian preparatory steps would allow Iran to move ahead with 90% enrichment within weeks if it chose to do so, according to one of the U.S. sources.

Israeli intelligence analysts assess that Iran could take that dramatic step soon in an attempt to gain leverage in the Vienna talks, the source said.

Israel also shared an intelligence assessment that Iran’s desire for leverage in Vienna could lead Tehran to further increase attacks against U.S. forces and interests in the region via proxies in Yemen, Syria and Iraq, the U.S. source said.

What kind of leverage? Iran is a failing state economically and needs the sanctions lifted immediately or there will be a revolution in the streets.

Washington Examiner:

Any Iranian escalation to weapons-grade enrichment would have to be authorized by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. But economic pressures inside Iran are now critical, limiting the regime’s ability even to pay off its most loyal supporters and fueling political instability . Khamenei wants economic relief that only the West can provide, but without providing much in return. He might see enrichment to 90% purity as a means to play hardball in that pursuit.

What would follow if Iran took that action?

Starting a war has been the final gambit of failing regimes for centuries. If Khamenei gives in to the west and halts uranium enrichment while also limiting his nuclear program, his own hardliners would have his head on a platter.

So Khamenei’s path is set. He will continue to escalate until someone stops him. And since Joe Biden is too busy trying to find ways to surrender to Iran, it will have to be Israel that takes on the thankless task of ridding the world of the Iranian nuclear threat.
