Following the lead of their Canadian freedom-loving colleagues, American truckers are planning to form a nationwide chain of semi-trucks and other vehicles in protest of COVID-19 authoritarian policies. The news comes as the reportedly 50,000-strong group of Canadian long-haul truck drivers — dubbed the “Freedom Convoy” — made its way across the country to Ottawa this past Saturday to protest against the vaccine mandates and other COVID-19 government measures. A large number of truckers from the United States have been joining the convoy along the way.

A rapidly growing Facebook group called “Convoy to DC 2022” is now calling upon all truckers to join forces against the government overreach in the Land of the Free.

“We are part of many large groups who believe in our founding fathers. We believe everyone has a voice. We support our freedom. Help us spread the word about this group and together we all can make it a better place. God Bless America,” the group states.

Brian Von D, the administrator of “Convoy to DC 2022” announced over the weekend that “America is next.”

In a Facebook video posted on January 27, he said that the American convoy will start in California and will head to Washington, D.C.

“We’re done with the mandates, we’re done with the government telling us what to do, we will continue, and we will follow just like the rest of the world on these trucker protests, and they will be 100 percent legal, they will abide by the law,” Brian said.

He added that if a trucker violates the laws and convoy’s rules, he or she would be “kicked out of the convoy.” That, however, has never happened so far in the Canadian “Freedom Convoy,” and “everybody was amazing,” Brian noted.

“American, it’s your turn,” Brian continued, “It’s your turn to step up and show what you’re made of.”

Saying that the vaccines have proven to be neither safe nor effective, Brian implied, “It is all about control.” He continued by stating that the pushback against that power grab depends on all people who value freedom.

“The government overreach is coming to an end, and this is how we do it,” he said.

Brian observed that while the Canadian and American convoys pursue the same goal, they would differ by one detail — their size. “America has a lot more trucks,” he said, describing that the organization of a much larger convoy would require more effort, but would also be even more powerful. Many of the other professional groups have also joined forces with the truckers. According to Brian, many teachers, police officers, firefighters, nurses, union workers, and others are supporting and collaborating with the movement.

In addition to that, private businesses and families in the two countries gave truckers “nothing but love,” and have helped the convoys with food, shelter, and gas.

Brian called on people to join and help the movement, which, he said, “will be in the history books.”

Regarding the dates of the American convoy, Brian noted that they will be announced once the Canadian truckers “get what they want.” When that happens, the dates will be posted on the “Convoy to DC” page. Brian later added that the information will likely be updated “within two weeks.”

The organizer also encouraged people to donate to the movement. The web address of the GoFundMe page, he said, will be published soon on the group’s Facebook page.

The truckers and other participants of the D.C. convoy, like their Canadian counterparts, would stay in the capital for as long as possible until the government drops its coercive policies.

In a video posted Monday, Brian Brase, another group’s organizer and a trucker, has reiterated the call to all Americans, “everybody and anybody,” regardless of their vaccination status, political affiliations, personal and religious beliefs, and occupation, to be a part of the freedom movement.

“Our convoy needs to be big. We need to make a statement that we will not take it anymore. And we need to hold the line until our Constitutional freedoms are respected,” Brase said.

He added that the convoy can start any time, and expressed his belief that American truckers should have taken a convoy to Washington, D.C., simultaneously with their Canadian friends.

“If some group out there, anybody out there and they start doing it sooner, we’re going to do it then.”

As of Monday, more than 102,300 people have joined “Convoy to DC 2022” Facebook group.

The Biden administration is now requiring all non-U.S. citizens entering the country, including Canadian and Mexican truck drivers, to present proof that they are fully vaccinated against COVID. The same regulation was earlier implemented in Canada.

The American Trucking Associations (ATA), the largest and most comprehensive national trade association for the trucking industry, representing more than 37,000 members covering every type of motor carrier in the United States, is urging leaders in Ottawa and Washington to reconsider the cross-border mandates in order to “avoid any further economic disruptions,” per a Wall Street Journal report.

Truckers in other countries such as Australia, Brazil, and the Netherlands have organized their own convoys to push back against authoritarian COVID measures.

ATF Reveals It Has an illegal National Gun Registry Already in Place

ATF Reveals It Has a National Gun Registry Already in Place

When the Washington Free Beacon obtained documents last November revealing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) had more than 54 million records of Americans who purchased firearms from local gun dealers, Representative Michael Cloud (R-Texas) and 51 other members of Congress demanded answers. In November he expressed his “concern”:

We are concerned that this Administration is leveraging its power in a way to establish a federal gun registry….

Congress has made it clear … that the federal government shall not create a federal gun registry and has prohibited ATF from creating any centralized databases.

He demanded answers to a number of questions, including just how many records ATF had, how many of them have been digitized using OCR or Optical Character Recognition technology, and specifically “how its Out-of-Business Records Center policy [of capturing all records from gun dealers who go out of business] does not violate the statutory restriction on a federal gun or gun owner registry?”

Cloud’s letter was signed by House members Thomas Massie, Pete Sessions, Ronny L. Jackson, Andy Biggs, Chip Roy, Jim Jordan, Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz, Burgess Owens, Louie Gohmert, and others.

Those members were stunned when Daniel Board, ATF’s assistant director, responded:

In total, ATF manages 920,664,765 OBR [Out of Business Records], as of November 2021 … 865,787,086 of those records are in digitized format.

Board then tried to explain that the ATF’s purposes in keeping such an immense database were benign:

The OBR [database does] not capture and store certain key information, such as firearms purchaser information in an automated file….

The ATF National Tracing Center … only traces crime guns … ATF is confident that it does not violate any laws.

Cloud didn’t buy it, telling the Free Beacon:

A federal firearm registry is explicitly banned by law. Yet, the Biden administration is again circumventing Congress and enabling the notably corrupt ATF to manage a database of nearly a billion gun transfer records.

Under the president’s watch, the ATF has increased surveillance of American gun owners at an abhorrent level. The Biden administration continues to empower criminals and foreign nationals while threatening the rights of law-abiding Americans.

John Crump, writing for Ammoland Inc., caught the lie about the OBR database only capturing “certain” limited information in its files, excluding purchaser information:

Although the ATF claims not to have the ability to search for specific character strings [such as purchaser names and related information], the fact they are using OCR means that it would only take mere minutes to enable [its] ability to search the documents.

The information-technology company Teris explains just how easy it is to turn paper documents into digital form that then can be searched using keywords such as “purchaser”:

OCR is the process of converting images and flat non-searchable documents into searchable text documents … so you can search for keywords….

OCR has a range of benefits, including:

Converting non-searchable documents into searchable text documents,

Quickly find relevant information: keywords, dates, phrases, and more, and

Convert paper files into a searchable digital repository.

So, the ATF already has nearly a billion searchable files on American gun owners, including name, address, phone number, and other information the agency requires on its Form 4473 a purchaser must complete before a gun may be purchased from a gun dealer.

This is the agency that Cloud describes as “notably corrupt” and about which Lee Williams, a researcher for The Second Amendment Foundation’s Investigative Journalism Project, notes:

There has never been a federal agency with so little regard for the sanctity of human life, with such a history of failure, with such antiquated duties and responsibilities, with such a propensity to overreact, with such an addiction to good press, with such a willingness to bend over for any politician in charge, and — as we currently see playing out — with such little regard for the constitutional rights of American citizens.

Readers seeking more information about ATF’s failures and atrocities in Ruby Ridge, Waco, the Branch Davidians, and Operation Fast and Furious, Crump’s review is available here.

The gun registry that gun owners have feared for years as the next step towards gun confiscation is now in place. Disarming the public is the final step in turning the American Republic into a dictatorship.

Wyoming County Library Board passes hostile (and illegal) public comments policy FOR PORNOGRAPHY, then uses it to terminate meeting

Board shuts down citizen’s appeal vs. inappropriate children’s book. Claim speaker was "disrespectful."

Follows resignation of Library Board Chairman – after months of Wyoming MassResistance pressure

Board members continue to side with Library Director against parents

Community pressure continues

February 1, 2022

New Library Board Chairman Charlie Anderson (center) reads aloud his proposed "public comment policy" at the Dec. 20 meeting.

These days, radical public library officials will do almost anything – even break the law – to intimidate and discourage citizens from attempting to stop their abuses against children. In Campbell County, Wyoming, MassResistance community activists have been relentlessly taking a stand to stop their public library officials from foisting LGBT pornography and other inappropriate books on young children and teens.

But our activists are learning that relentless pressure pays off.

Library Board chairman steps down

On Dec. 20, 2021, the Campbell County Library Board opened its meeting with a new chairman, Charlie Anderson.

His predecessor, Dr. Hollie Stewart, had abruptly resigned as chairman soon after the November meeting but continues to serve as a Board member. According to people we spoke to, she had been complaining bitterly to members of the County Commission about having to run Board meetings with the ongoing anger from Wyoming MassResistance parents over the offensive children’s books.

Left to right: Library Board members Mandy Steward, Miranda Finn, former chairman Dr. Hollie Stewart, Nancy Stovall, and new chairman Charlie Anderson.

Odious new “public comment” policy

Anderson’s first action as new chairman was to introduce a new restrictive “public comment” policy. This high-handed tactic is being used across the country by public officials to insulate themselves from the outrage brought on by their arrogant actions.

Anderson read his proposed policy aloud. (See our transcription here.) It states that public comment at meetings is not a legal right, but a privilege granted by the Board. The policy was developed after (supposed) “personal attacks directed at this Board.”

The policy bans “inappropriate comments or behavior.” Inappropriate behavior is defined as “attempting to engage individual Board members in conversation” and “insults.” It also lists “obscenities, or profanity and/or physical violence or any threat thereof” as well as “attacks against any person in their personal capacity” (which is unclear). But to imply that concerned parents would engage in profanity, physical violence, or threats is absurd.

The policy outlines a series of steps for enforcement: (1) The chairman rules the speaker out of order. (2) If the behavior continues, the speaker will be asked to leave. (3) If inappropriate conduct continues, the chairman may “entertain a motion to end public comment and adjourn the meeting.” It also limits speakers in public comment to three minutes, an absurdly short time for that kind of body.

Anderson said that he and Sean Brown, the (liberal) assistant County Attorney jointly put together the policy. (Perhaps they were inspired by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland’s memo casting parents who dare to speak up as domestic terrorists.)

The Library Board unanimously approved the policy.

Illegal under Wyoming Law?

It would certainly appear that this policy is illegal under Wyoming law. Wyoming statute 16-4-406 states that in the event of “disruption of public meetings” a body may (a) have the person or persons removed and continue the session, or (b) recess the meeting and reconvene to another location and continue with the agenda. It does not give the option of simply adjourning the meeting. But like most leftists, Charlie Anderson and Sean Brown decided to devise their own set of rules.

Using a new policy to suddenly shut down the meeting!

On the Dec. 20 meeting’s agenda were appeals to the Library Board by local citizens. They sought to remove four books whose challenges had been rejected by the library staff.

We’ve already reported on the appeal of the first book Trans Mission, a sickening, pornographic LGBT book for teenagers that the Board nevertheless voted to keep on the shelves.

The other three books were being appealed by Kevin, the son of two great Wyoming MassResistance activists. Kevin got right to work.

His first appeal was on the book, The Babysitter’s Coven. Following the trend of anti-Christian children’s books, it is a slick teenagers’ introduction to the occult and satanic beliefs and symbolism which encourages teenagers to explore further. (It’s no wonder so many young people are drawn into Satanism.) The plot also includes a man abducting girls and holding them in a basement. It encourages underage drinking and drug use (two issues affecting teenagers in Campbell County). This portrayal of repulsive people who do nasty things has no redeeming value.

Even the book cover is weird.

Kevin described how reviewers – which the library uses in their “collection” process – were not impressed by this book. He quoted one mainstream reviewer saying, “I am not really comfortable recommending a young teen to read this book.”

Kevin begins his presentation of "The Babysitter's Coven" to the Board on Dec. 20 as local parents seated behind him look on.

A few minutes into Kevin’s presentation, some of the Board members were clearly getting uncomfortable. They rudely started interrupting Kevin. Charlie Anderson grilled him about Lord of the Rings, a book that was not relevant to the conversation. It seemed like a hostile cross-examination. Then Anderson started berating him for bringing up the book reviews. When Kevin started to answer him, Board member Miranda Finn suddenly jumped in:

Charlie Anderson: I was hoping you’d talk about the book that we’re here to discuss.

Kevin: That’s what I’ve been doing. I’m using data and sources to back up what I’m saying so I’m not just bubbling effervescent from my face here. I’m trying to actually use some facts here.

Miranda Finn: Mr. Chairman, we’ve reached the point where disrespect is being displayed. I move to adjourn the meeting.

Immediately then, Anderson called for a vote to adjourn. There were four “Aye” votes. (He did not ask if there were any “Nay” votes. Mandy Steward later told him that she was a “Nay” vote.) Anderson quickly declared the meeting adjourned.

A violation of the policy they had just passed

This was in violation of the policy they had just passed! Before adjourning the meeting, they should have first (1) ruled Kevin out of order, then (2) asked him to leave. They did neither.

Also, the basis of the adjournment was that “disrespect is being displayed” by Kevin. But “disrespect” is not part of their definition of inappropriate behavior. Kevin did not actually violate anything.

All this shows how contemptible and loathsome these people are.

At the January Board meeting, Kevin was allowed to continue

At the January 24, 2022 meeting of the Library Board, the arrogance continued. But Kevin’s persistence clearly had them rattled, and he was not letting up.

At the beginning of the meeting, Kevin requested that they read the Wyoming statute on “disruption of public meetings” which clearly contradicts their new policy. Anderson asked one of the staff members to read it aloud. The staffer did, but the Board didn’t react at all and just continued with their meeting.

They allowed Kevin to finish his three book appeals. The other two books were A Quick and Easy Guide to Queer and Trans Identities and Music from Another World. Both books intend to draw young teenagers into homosexuality. They portray homosexual relationships and sex as normal and very desirable.

This time the Board let Kevin finish his presentations. Immediately afterward, the Board allowed the Library Director to deliver a “rebuttal” to Kevin’s appeal. Much of that was the boilerplate text from her previous rebuttal in December.

Then, to no one’s surprise, the Board voted 4-1 to reject all of Kevin’s appeal, with Mandy Steward being the holdout.

And then came public comment - parents blast Board!

The Board was not in the clear yet. They got pummeled during the public comment section.

Citizen after citizen got up and blasted the Board for doing nothing to get rid of the terrible books, and the staff who have been selecting the books. One woman pointed out that the efforts of the Wyoming MassResistance team are inspiring other people around the country to press forward, demand answers from their local libraries, and get harmful books removed. At one point, a woman who identified herself as a retired librarian pointed out that the local newspaper has applauded the Library Director. Kevin got up and reminded her that the newspaper differs from the community on most issues, including this.

This woman talked about being part of Wyoming MassResistance and traveling around the state, and that people knew about this battle: “I hear some positive stories and it’s so exciting. Because of us, people have taken on their own libraries. And they’re getting things done! Books are being removed!" she said.

Final thoughts

Decades ago, most states across the country passed laws exempting schools, libraries, and museums from laws banning obscenity (as harmful to minors). This was done in the interest of protecting legitimate artwork that sometimes portrayed nudity. But now, radical staff members and public officials are using that as cover to push pornography onto children in schools and libraries. (Attempts to overturn these laws in some states have been strongly opposed by teachers’ unions and LGBT groups.)

Regarding the issue of “disrespecting” officials: In a famous 1964 case (New York Times v Sullivan) the US Supreme Court opined that America has a "profound national commitment to the principle that debate on public issues should be uninhibited, robust, and wide-open, and that it may well include vehement, caustic, and sometimes unpleasantly sharp attacks on government and public officials."

When public officials declare that they and their actions are above criticism by ordinary citizens, we all need to get very upset. These people have no morals and no conscience. They deserve parents’ disrespect. We will certainly not be intimidated by them.

There’s a lot more to come from Campbell County, Wyoming!

Please help us continue to do our uncompromising work!

Our successes depend on people like you.

VIRGINIA Governor Youngkin Creates ‘Ambassador for Unborn’

Appointee asked to ‘defend anti-abortion legislation’

Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin has named Angela Sailor, a former executive with the conservative Heritage Foundation, as Virginia’s chief diversity officer. But rather than a typical political appointment, this is a sign from Youngkin of his commitment to ending abortion, as he also announced that he wants to change the title of her office — and to include “ambassador to unborn children” in Sailor’s duties.

In a press release, Youngkin announced his plan to change the department from the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to the Office of Diversity, Opportunity, and Inclusion. “The people of Virginia elected the most diverse leadership in the Commonwealth’s history. Virginia is big enough for the hopes and dreams of a diverse people,” he said in a statement. “Angela Sailor’s experience in government, nonprofits, and the private sector will guide us as we ensure that the government is working for all Virginians across our diverse Commonwealth, especially when it comes to economic opportunity for all Virginians. In addition, I will introduce and support legislation to change the name of the office to the Diversity, Opportunity and Inclusion Office.”

Furthermore, in the executive order, Youngkin emphasized the importance of protecting all lives, writing, “[E]very one of us is made in the image of our Creator”:

What is seared in our heart by a loving, almighty Creator is not a desire for power or conquest, not a love of self, or personal advancement. Rather it’s a belief that life is worth living when we serve a greater cause than self when we love without expecting a favor in return and when we set aside ego for the greater good. We are one Virginia. We are all sailing in the same boat.

Yet, we acknowledge that too many of our citizens have not received the equal opportunity they deserve, and we recognize that diversity when genuinely embraced strengthens our Commonwealth. Every Virginian deserves dignity and respect, deserves the opportunity to pursue their dreams, and deserves inclusion in the Virginia family.

Planned Parenthood is unhappy about the appointment and the changes made to the position, tweeting, “Virginia now has a DEI officer encouraged to spout and defend anti-abortion legislation, some of the least inclusive and equitable policy on the books.”

In addition to protecting preborn human lives, Sailor will be tasked with expanding opportunities for people with disabilities and from disadvantaged backgrounds, and with eliminating disparities in prenatal care.

California Woman Takes Legal Action Against School for Manipulating Daughter into Transgenderism

January 29, 2022 John

Mother LOSES It On School Board For ALLOWING Teachers To COACH Her Daughter Into Trans Identity

Parents outraged over school staff who allegedly disguised the names of clubs at a California middle school are planning to voice their concerns at a school board meeting this week in Salinas. Jessica Konen has alleged that school staff put her then 12-year-old daughter in a LBGT club disguised as an “Equality Club.”

EXCERPTS: Harmeet Dhillon, founder, and CEO of the Center for American Liberty filed the case on behalf of Konen. “Parents are supposed to have access to all the educational records of their children,” Dhillon told DailyMail.com. “The concept that the schools have a right to be running secret, don’t-tell-your-parents clubs and don’t-tell-your-parents programs and actively coaching children how to mutilate themselves, which is you know, not growing your breasts, is certainly not consistent with California law.”

Teachers groomed my daughter to change 'gender identity'

A California woman is threatening her local school district with a lawsuit for convincing her young daughter that she was transgender and bisexual.

Jessica Konen of Spreckels, California, filed a legal claim — the precursor to a lawsuit — against the Spreckels Union School District plus two teachers and the principal at Buena Vista Middle School. She claims the teachers, Lori Caldiera and Kelly Baraki, secretly manipulated her then-11-year-old daughter, referred to only as A.G., into changing her gender identity and requesting to be treated as a boy, even to the point of using a unisex restroom normally reserved for teachers.

That Caldiera and Baraki would do such a thing is hardly surprising. In a video from a California Teachers Association conference that was leaked to journalist Abigail Shrier in November, the two proudly laid out exactly how they recruited students to the LGBT cause and how they kept parents from finding out.

Caldiera and Baraki explained that when students were engaged in remote learning during the COVID-19 lockdowns, the teachers “totally stalked what [students] were doing on Google” and used that knowledge, plus their classroom observations, to identify potential recruits for their school’s pro-LGBT “Equality Club.” They further admitted that they intentionally kept no records of who attended club meetings, scheduled the meetings during lunch period rather than after school, and told students not to tell their parents about the club.

According to Konen’s legal claim, all this was enabled by the school’s Parental Secrecy Policy, under which the school would keep students’ gender confusion or gender-identity changes a secret from their parents.

Konen says that A.G. first attended an Equality Club meeting at the beginning of her sixth-grade year at the invitation of a friend but only continued to go because of encouragement from Caldiera. Soon, Caldiera and Baraki were strongly hinting to A.G. that she was both transgender and bisexual, terms that the girl did not even fully understand at the time. Then they convinced her to begin using a boy’s name and wearing boys’ clothing. Worst of all, the teachers “instructed A.G. not to tell her mother about her new identity or new name, saying that her mother might not be supportive of her and that she couldn’t trust her mother,” reads the claim.

Later, Caldiera, by misrepresenting A.G.’s desires to other faculty and administrators, got everyone to call her by her new, male name and pronouns and obtained access to the unisex restroom for her, alleges Konen. Moreover, she claims, Caldiera insisted the girl read several articles on transgenderism, including one on how to hide it from parents — and, as usual, keep it a secret from her mom.

Meanwhile, the school kept Konen from learning of any of this. In all its communications with her, teachers and administrators continued to refer to A.G. by her given name and feminine pronouns.

Eventually, the principal called Konen in for a meeting, at which she was told what was going on with her daughter and was given no choice but to accept it. She says she feared having her daughter taken from her if she objected.

After more than a year of remote learning — and, therefore, far less influence from Caldiera and Baraki — A.G. “began to return to her old self,” says the claim. Nevertheless, she remains “confused about issues related to her sexuality” and still has a somewhat strained relationship with her mother.

Neither Konen nor her daughter really understood what had happened until Shrier reported on the leaked video. Then they began to realize that Caldiera and Baraki had orchestrated the entire sequence of events, with the girl the unwitting victim of their schemes — and probably not the only one.

As a result, they are asking the school district to “award appropriate damages … to the fullest extent allowed under the law.” Failure to do so will, of course, result in a lawsuit.

“Parents are supposed to have access to all the educational records of their children,” Konen’s attorney, Harmeet Dhillon, told the Associated Press. “The concept that the schools have a right to be running secret, don’t-tell-your-parents clubs and don’t-tell-your-parents programs and actively coaching children how to mutilate themselves … is certainly not consistent with California law.”

Ex-NY Times Writer: COVID Restrictions Amount to a “Catastrophic Moral Crime”

January 29, 2022 John

BY SELWYN DUKE

SEE: https://thenewamerican.com/ex-ny-times-writer-covid-restrictions-amount-to-a-catastrophic-moral-crime;

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

Thousands dead due to secondary effects of lockdowns, children’s development stunted and youth mental-health problems increasing, livelihoods ruined, depression and suicide up, the economy wobbly, and freedoms destroyed — all with no apparent reduction in coronavirus spread. This is the all-cons-and-no-pros result of COVID policy.

It’s also something else: “a catastrophic moral crime.”

So said former New York Times writer Bari Weiss while on Real Time with Bill Maher last Friday.

Weiss’s comments lay in stark contrast to those of Representative Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.), who appeared opposite her and acted as an apologist for China virus regulations.

Host Maher introduced the topic saying that a COVID reset was now apparent in Europe, with leaders beginning to accept that we have to live with SARS-CoV-2 and “treat it like the flu”; in particular, he mentioned the U.K.’s elimination of virtually all COVID regulations.

After Torres presented the boilerplate COVIDian claim about how we’re returning to normal because of Joe Biden’s “vaccination” campaign, Weiss pointed out that her once complete devotion to COVID ritual was history.

“I’m done. I’m done with COVID. I went so hard with COVID,” she said. “I sprayed the Pringles cans that I bought at the grocery store, stripped my clothes off because I thought COVID would be on my clothes. I watched Tiger King; I got to the end of Spotify. We all did it, right?”

At this point, Maher, shaking his head, interjected, “No, we didn’t all do it.” Though Maher is liberal and accepted one dose of an mRNA therapy agent (MTA, a.k.a. COVID “vaccine”) — explaining in the past that he “took one for the team” — he maintains that the China virus response is overblown.

Weiss then resumed, saying, “And then we were told, you get the vaccine. You get the vaccine and you get back to normal. And, we haven’t gotten back to normal, and it’s ridiculous at this point. I know that so many of my liberal and progressive friends are with me on this, and they do not want to say it out loud because they are scared to be called anti-vax or to be called science denial, or to be, you know, smeared as a Trumper.”

Weiss still had more to say, however. “I’m sorry, if you believe the science, you will look at the data that we did not have two years ago, and you will find out that cloth masks do not do anything,” she continued. “You will realize that you can show your vaccine passport at a restaurant and still be asymptomatic and carrying Omicron.”

Note here that The New American and other honest news sources have been reporting for almost the “pandemic’s” entire duration that mask mandates are ineffective and, in fact, counterproductive. Moreover, while Maher had, as mentioned earlier, treated the conclusion that we’ll just have to live with COVID as a new revelation, certain experts have thus informed for two years. In particular, I’ve repeatedly cited an article at the liberal Atlantic that made this point in February 2020.

Weiss then issued her money line, stating that the China virus fiasco “is going to be remembered by the younger generation as a catastrophic moral crime.” Supporting this assertion, she mentioned how a Flint, Michigan school recently announced there would be virtual learning indefinitely, and, touching on psychological damage done to kids, said there has been a 51-percent increase in self-harm among young girls.

“That is why we need to end the lockdowns and declare it a pandemic of bureaucracy,” she stated. (Video below.)

I’ll reiterate that while it’s good (and necessary) that the mainstream Johnny-come-latelys are finally coming, they’re singing from others’ hymnal. Just consider some New American headlines from COVID Year One:

As for COVID policy being a “moral crime,” Weiss is correct. But how it will be remembered is a different matter, as the victors write the history.

Another issue is that it’s “easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled,” as the apocryphal saying goes, and this helps explain continued rank-and-file COVIDian devotion. This said, COVID-delusion-dissipation critical mass may be reached and, when people finally do realize they’ve been fooled, watch out!

And coming to mind here is the 1975 film The Man Who Would be King, in which two wealth-seeking 19th-century Englishmen successfully seize power in a primitive Eastern land. Their triumph is facilitated by the fact that one of them, through a twist of fate, ends up being taken as a god. Yet after the people see him bleed due to a reluctant bride’s unfortunate bite, their rule ends — rapidly and tragically. (Video below. Warning: contains spoilers.)

Ambitious men who play god play a dangerous game, and “lies have short legs.” Then again, people also have short memories. So only time will tell how much farther the COVID Con can run.

(Natural News) In order to enter big box stores like Walmart and Costco, residents of Quebec, Can., now have to show proof of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccination” or else be chaperoned around the store by an employee to ensure they only purchase food.

CBC News reports (watch below) that the unvaccinated in Quebec are now restricted to buying only things like milk and bread when they hit up the IKEA food court for instance. All of that Swedish furniture, however, will be off-limits to them.

So, if you’re unvaccinated in Quebec and walk into big box store you will need to be accompanied by an employee who will make sure you’re not there to buy socks or a toaster oven.????? pic.twitter.com/zaxEmuFxSB

“Today, big box stores that have a footprint of 1,500 square meters or more are going to have to ask people, customers, to show proof of vaccination,” the CBC reporter explains in the segment.

“Now, pharmacies and grocery will be exempt from this. So, if you’re going into a Costco or a Walmart or something like that, where you might be going in to buy groceries or visit the pharmacy, in that case, an employee will have to be with that person as they walk through the store to make sure that they do not go and buy other products or other items that might be in the store.”

Health Minister Christian Dubé destroying Quebec’s economy with jab mandate

Only “essential” goods can be purchased by the unvaccinated, in other words. And the government apparently gets to arbitrarily define what essential means to only include the very basics of life. (Related: Canadian grocery stores are also suffering from supply chain woes.)

“There are several reasons we’re disappointed,” said Patrick Delisle, head of marketing for the Quebec hardware chain Canac. “First of all, we would’ve liked to be treated as an essential service – we’ve been essential since the beginning of the pandemic.”

Health Minister Christian Dubé, however, does not care about Canac’s plight. He would rather punish the unvaccinated and hurt local businesses in an effort to strongarm more people into getting injected.

“We’re not going to ask someone who’s dealing with water damage [in their home] if they’re vaccinated or not,” Delisle added about the lunacy of this new decree. “It’s really frustrating to have to manage clients living in situations like that … it’s not our job.”

In addition to the sheer burden of having to check people’s jab status at the door, not to mention the lost economic activity that results, Canac says that it will cost around $100,000 per week to enforce Dubé’s mandate at its 31 stores throughout the province.

Simon Gagnon, owner of a Sports Experts franchise in Quebec, added that the current labor shortage will make it a “colossal challenge” to keep enough security guards on-site for enforcement purposes, let alone employees to continue running the stores.

“What scares us is that instead of lining up, people will go shop somewhere else,” Gagnon says, noting that Dubé’s mandate creates unfair competition between larger retailers with deep pockets and smaller stores that do not have the means to enforce the new rules.

“We’re just the messenger … it’s not us who decided to do it,” Delisle says. “We’re getting a lot of messages from people on social media pouring their hearts out – to put it politely.”

The construction industry, which had hoped for an exemption, is also suffering from a lack of workers due to their having to be injected in order to receive a paycheck.

Biden cuts off America’s supply of monoclonal antibodies – only “vaccines” allowed

January 28, 2022 John

DeSantis Attacks Biden Over CANCELING Monoclonal Antibody Policy At Former Treatment Site

BY ETHAN HUFF

SEE: https://www.naturalnews.com/2022-01-26-biden-cuts-off-monoclonal-antibodies-only-vaccines.html;

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

(Natural News) The Biden regime is banning monoclonal antibodies by removing them from emergency use authorization (EUA).

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) decided out of the blue to cut off America’s supply of Regeneron, a “passive vaccine” that many Democrats seem to oppose because it was promoted by President Donald Trump. (Related: Sen. Rand Paul called out Joe Biden for killing Americans by denying them access to monoclonal antibodies.)

In Florida, where monoclonal antibodies are widely popular, the state’s department of health released a statement condemning the Biden regime’s “abrupt” decision to eliminate access to monoclonal antibodies, which have been shown to prevent severe illness, hospitalization and death in high-risk patients who have contracted or been exposed to the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19).

As a result of the EUA’s removal, all of Florida’s monoclonal antibody administration sites are now “closed until further notice,” the Florida Department of Health (FDH) tweeted.

“Unfortunately, as a result of this abrupt decision made by the federal government, all monoclonal antibody sites will be closed until further notice,” the announcement reads.

“Individuals with appointments have been directly contacted regarding cancellations. If you have tested positive for COVID-19, please contact your health care provider for more information and resources on treatment options.”

Monoclonal antibodies are safer and more effective than covid “vaccines”

The FDH clearly stated in the announcement that Florida “disagrees with the decision that blocks access to any available treatments in the absence of clinical evidence.”

“To date, such clinical evidence has not been provided by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA),” the agency added.

The FDA decision applies to the entire country, just to be clear. It is now illegal, technically speaking, for providers to administer monoclonal antibodies in the U.S.

“The FDA is trying to make it so that people in Florida die of Covid,” tweeted Mike Cernovich. “They’ll kill people to harm Republicans. Steel yourselves for the evil that is being unleashed.”

Gov. Ron DeSantis has been a heavy promoter of Regeneron, a company in which he holds stock.

The drug is said to help sick patients by giving them a quick fix of synthetic antibodies, which for many alleviates their symptoms quickly, often by the following day.

According to the FDA, monoclonal antibodies from both Regeneron and Eli Lilly should no longer be used because they are “unlikely” to be effective against the “omicron” (moronic) variant of the Fauci Flu.

Rather than allow patients and their doctors to make their own determinations and decision, the FDA has decided to just go ahead and prohibit the drugs because they might not (but also might) work.

DeSantis, who helped set up infusion sites for Regeneron all across the Sunshine State, slammed the Biden regime over the FDA’s decision. The governor has promised to fight for these treatments to return, “come hell or high water.”

According to DeSantis, Biden swept in to cut off access to monoclonal antibodies right as it was becoming obvious that the treatment works better than the “vaccines” at helping sick patients recover.

“I believe that ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, chlorine dioxide, and many other remedies work to stop Covid-19 in its tracks,” wrote a Natural News reader.

“I also believe that no one needs any more than a high-quality vitamin C combined with vitamin D3, and zinc to overcome even the most severe cases of Covid-19. I personally take 25,000 mg of vitamin C throughout the day when I am ill. I take up to 40,000 international units of vitamin D3 a day when ill, and up to 50mg of zinc. This always seems to do the trick. A shot of fresh-squeezed lemon or a shot of apple cider vinegar with the mother to alkalize help, too.”

Finland Parlament Member on Trial for Using Biblical Description of Homosexuality

January 27, 2022 John

A criminal conviction for posting a Bible tweet is now a very real possibility in Finland. On 24 January, former Minister of the Interior Päivi Räsänen will face a criminal trial after being accused of engaging in “hate speech” for publicly voicing her deeply held beliefs on marriage and human sexuality. In April 2021, the Prosecutor General brought three criminal charges against Räsänen over the contents of a church pamphlet Räsänen wrote over 17 years ago, for engaging in a debate on a 2019 radio show and, most recently, for a tweet containing a picture of Bible verses she directed at her church leadership. ADF International has been supporting Päivi for the past two years. We sat down for an interview to hear her story. To support Päivi, please visit https://adfinternational.org/freespee... .

Finnish Christian Democrat MP on trial for hate speech after saying homosexuality is a developmental disorder and a sin.

QUICK FACTS:

A government official and former Interior Minister is now on trial for her Christian-based comments on homosexuality.
Paivi Rasanen, who has been the nation’s Parliament since 1995, is being taken to task over comments made on three occasions, stretching back as far as 2004, according to The Independent.
Charges against the government official were announced in April of 2021 when a state prosecutor said Rasanen’s remarks could fuel intolerance toward homosexuals.
Rasanen is facing legal action for the instances, including one where she posted a photo of excerpts from the Bible.

— The Federalist (@FDRLST) January 25, 2022

RASANEN RESPONSE TO THE CHARGES:

“In all the charges, I deny any wrongdoing. My writings and statements under investigation are linked to the Bible’s teachings on marriage, living as a man and a woman, as well as the Apostle Paul’s teaching on homosexual acts,” she explained according to CBN News. “The teachings concerning marriage and sexuality in the Bible arise from love to one’s neighbor, not from hate towards a group of people.”
“According to my knowledge, the court has to for the first time take a stand on whether it is legal or not to cite the Bible,” Räsänen continued.
According to The Independent, Rasanen appeared in court on Monday with a Bible in hand saying she was “honored to be defending the freedom of speech and religion.”

BACKGROUND:

In addition to a 2004 article where she is accused of making derogatory comments about the LGBT community, she is also being scrutinized for a 2019 radio interview and tweets sent in the same year.
She described homosexuality as a “genetic degeneration” in the program broadcast by Finnish public radio station Yle, according to the prosecutor’s case against the lawmaker.

Dartmouth College

As the FBI retails the lie that “white supremacists” are the greatest threat to domestic security in the United States, Antifa goons who proudly declare themselves dangerous communists are threatening violence to shut down conservative speakers.

This time the target was Andy Ngo, the journalist who tracks Antifa’s terror activities. He lost a speaking gig at Dartmouth University after Northeast Antifa threatened protests, he reported in the New York Post. The communist thugs also threatened Ngo.

Dartmouth surrendered. Administrators confessed they feared what Antifa might do. Message sent: If Antifa orders a university to shut down a conservative speaker, the school will meekly obey.

I was invited to speak at @Dartmouth about far-left violent extremism, a reality often denied. #Antifa reacted by promising violence, prompting a bomb squad response from police. At the last minute, administrators cancelled the in-person event. My latest: https://t.co/fjCkaszCnY

— Andy Ngô 🏳️‍🌈 (@MrAndyNgo) January 25, 2022

Death Threat

The threats came from Northeast Antifa on its Northeast FASHWATCH Twitter feed, Ngo reported. The group announces it is “queer as f***,” “Anti-fascist as f***,” and “communist as f***.”

Obviously, the group is crazy as f*** as well, but anyway, it also calls itself “Commie Pinko F@gs fighting back.”

The obsession with sodomy is not surprising. Erotopathy and communist ideology — sexual revolution and political revolution — have walked hand-in-hand since at least the French Revolution.

Yet “soon after the event was announced,” Ngo wrote for the Post, “Antifa and its army of online trolls threatened violence to shut it down. In turn, Dartmouth administrators gave the extremists exactly what they wanted: The Hanover, NH, college canceled the in-person event at the last minute, citing vague ‘safety issues.’”

Such were the concerns, he continued, that cops cleared the speaking venue and sent in a bomb squad and dogs before Ngo arrived.

Northeast Antifa began publishing threats on Twitter on January 18, including a “disturbing flyer featuring a photograph of my bloodied face from when an Antifa mob beat me in 2019 in Portland, Ore.” Ngo continued. “I was hospitalized for a brain hemorrhage from that assault and robbery.”

On Instagram, the “Commie Pinko F@gs fighting back” escalated. They targeted Ngo and strongly implied they would kill him:

This is to Andy Ngo himself: when you f–k with us you are not f–king with college students. When you enter our home you start playing by our rules, not yours. New England is anti-fascist, and we will hold that line until death.

The John Brown Gun Club, a radical leftist “militia,” promised to be there with a “battalion of Antifa,” while Upstate Antifa tweeted that it hoped “NH antifascists give him a milkshake welcome.”

An #Antifa account tags armed far-left militia groups on Twitter (John Brown Gun Club) to alert them about the event. In 2019, a member of the group in Washington state (Willem van Spronsen) carried out an armed firebomb attack on a ICE facility. He was killed in the process. pic.twitter.com/uC0pBuLXPQ

Another Antifa goon vowed to pay anyone who assaulted or poisoned him.

Ahead of my speaking event at Dartmouth College, Jonathan Dylan Chase, a 38-year-old Portland #Antifa member I've reported on before, says he will pay money toward anyone who assaults me & calls for others to try to contaminate my food & drink. https://t.co/plOV5NNtMW pic.twitter.com/g4yQMncKcR

— Andy Ngô 🏳️‍🌈 (@MrAndyNgo) January 19, 2022

Continued Ngo:

On Reddit, a thread announcing Antifa’s call to direct action went viral on the Socialist Rifle Association subreddit. There, some of the pseudonymous users posted about killing me and coming armed to the event to stop the “pests.”

Hanover police, nearby Lebanon police and the Grafton County Sheriff’s Office met the threats with a robust and commendable response. Dozens of officers secured the lecture hall where we were scheduled to speak. They secured every entrance and exit at the building, Moore Hall.

The message was clear: Law enforcement will ensure First Amendment activities are protected in Hanover, NH. Dartmouth’s administrators, however, felt otherwise.

Two hours before the event was set to begin, and with many attendees already en route, the administration canceled it. Over the phone, senior assistant dean for student life Anna Hall said the decision was made by “several” people but refused to say who when asked by a student organizer. The organizers were given the ultimatum of “transitioning” to a Zoom meeting or nothing at all. They reluctantly chose the former.

Lawsuit After Assault

Last year, Ngo filed a $900,000 lawsuit against Rose City Antifa, whose members attacked him in Portland Oregon, in 2019.

“Rose City Antifa members and others … lobbed containers full of liquid, purportedly ‘milkshakes’ … and other unknown liquids, at Ngo,” the lawsuit alleges.

“Milkshaking” is the name for attacking people with liquids that contain potentially toxic material such as quick-drying concrete.

The lawsuit says Rose City goons “who threw projectiles, including milkshakes, eggs, and containers; punched; and kicked him. Members also hit him in the head with plywood hard-edged sign placards and carbon-hardened tactical gloves.”

In December, the judge in the case rejected a motion from the defendants to toss it out of court on the grounds that it was frivolous.

10yrs for saving girl’s life’: Hacker jailed after exposing hospital for medical kidnapping

SEE: https://thenewamerican.com/freemartyg-exposing-americas-secret-prisons/;

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

Marty Gottesfeld, 37, is an American political prisoner. There’s just no other way to describe the self-taught, nonviolent techie/medical freedom activist now locked away in solitary confinement at a secret federal detention facility in Marion, Illinois — after being transferred this month from a different secret center in Terre Haute, Indiana. Both are known as “communications management units” (CMUs) in prison industrial complex bureaucrat-ese.

Or you could just call them un-American penitentiary black holes.

Twice — last June and this week — I’ve asked the federal Bureau of Prisons to explain why Marty is being held in solitary confinement, how long he has been squirreled away, and on what grounds he was transferred. “For privacy, safety, and security reasons,” I was told, “the BOP does not discuss any individual inmate’s conditions of confinement to include housing quarters or reasons for transfer.” This past Sunday marked four full months that Marty has been in solitary and blocked from communicating with loved ones or the media.

I first learned of Marty’s plight — and his heroism — five years ago from his loyal and vigilant wife, Dana, whose words in defense of the dissident action he took that earned him a 10-year federal sentence have never left me:

“It was the right thing to do.”

A quick recap for those who have never heard of, or have forgotten, the “Free Marty G” nightmare. In 2013, a young girl named Justina Pelletier was ripped from her parents’ custody by Boston Children’s Hospital. The teen, who has mitochondrial disease and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, had gone to BCH after coming down with a severe case of the flu. Instead of receiving top-notch care and attention at BCH, however, Justina was medically kidnapped and recklessly re-diagnosed with a psychological condition, “somatoform disorder.”

Justina was dragged from BCH’s neurology department to its infamous psych ward, where she was reprimanded for being unable to move her bowels or walk unassisted in her weakened state. At the Wayside Youth and Family Support Network residential treatment center where she was confined, she and her family recounted to me in my 2018 documentary on the case, she was harassed by a staffer while taking a shower. The physical and mental torture lasted 16 months.

In April 2014, he helped lead a social media army that implemented distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against Boston Children’s Hospital and the nearby Wayside Youth and Family Support Network residential treatment. Marty had organized a social media army to knock the computer networks of both institutions offline to protest Pelletier’s medical kidnapping. Hackers from the loose-knit collective, Anonymous, allegedly participated in the campaign.

Marty was charged and convicted of cybercrimes and sentenced to 10 years in federal prison. He had already spent more than a year behind bars without bail at the time of his sentencing (including about 80 days in solitary confinement and a stint in the same detention center as Mexico’s notorious drug cartel kingpin “El Chapo”). He has no regrets about stepping up in Pelletier’s defense and continued his whistle-blowing investigative journalism after his imprisonment with Dana’s help — until the feds tried to shut him up and shut him down after reporting on the plight of other CMU inmates.

The last time Dana spoke to Marty was last September. The last time she was able to see him in person was at his sentencing three years ago — yes, years — this month. Last summer, BOP officials had recommended that Marty be removed from the Terre Haute CMU. Instead, he was hauled from one American Gitmo to another.

“We were devastated to find out that the placement of Marty in the CMU will continue,” Dana told me this week. “There was never any good — or even comprehensible — reason to place him in that ultra-restrictive unit that was created in the 9/11 era. The BOP’s decision to continue placing Marty in the CMU shows that the pattern of harassment and retaliation that Marty faced when he began speaking publicly about conditions in BOP facilities continues.”

Dana added that “less than two-tenths of 1% of federal inmates are held in the CMUs. Many of them are members of radical Islamist terror organizations. The BOP has never given a reasonable explanation for why it has chosen to hold Marty, a nonviolent person never previously convicted of a crime, in these specialized prison units. I believe the BOP is continuing to retaliate against Marty for his decision to speak publicly about conditions in BOP facilities, ranging from damp and freezing cells, nonpotable water, to misconduct by a BOP unit manager.”

The Justice Department’s inspector general passed the buck on Marty’s case to the BOP Office of Internal Affairs. Marty’s complaint has fallen into yet another black hole.

Prominent Doctors Argue Masks For Kids Should Be Optional

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

New CDC guidance on the effectiveness of masking has just changed the dynamic of the mask debate in schools. Now masking can be made optional in schools thanks to some new studies that reveal the uselessness of cloth masks compared to the N95 respirators.

The importance of this guidance is that the N95 respirator is highly effective at protecting its wearers, regardless of what people around them are doing. The old argument, “my mask protects you and your mask protects me” is obsolete — if it were ever true in the first place.

Three prominent doctors at three of the most respected university hospitals in the country have written an op-ed in the Washington Post advocating for making masks optional in schools.

The doctors were originally supportive of masking policies given what was known at the time. But that has changed.

But universal masking policies in schools have not come without costs. In certain parts of the country where CDC mask guidelines were rigorously adhered to, children have not seen the faces of their teachers or classmates since early 2020. This affects learning and development, particularly for our youngest learners. Maintaining aggressive mitigation policies, including strident mask rules, also sends children, families and staff the message that schools are not safe. This is simply not true.

Then, a worrying pattern developed: “punitive mask culture.”

As parents of school-aged children, we have also noticed a disturbing pattern, especially during the omicron surge: punitive mask culture. This can take many forms. Some older children, for example, have been given detentions and even suspensions due to “mask slippage” or improper mask-wearing. Younger children have also been subjected to harsh rules to minimize the spread of covid-19 during lunch hours, often their only mask-free time during the school day. Some must eat in total silence during mealtimes. Others have “expedited” lunch or are instructed to pull their mask down to take a bite and pull it back up to chew. Activities intended to relieve stress, including recess and gym, have been curtailed because of the danger of “increased exhalation.”

And surprise, surprise — Hopkinton High School in Massachusetts reported something odd when mask-wearing was made optional.

Hopkinton High School in Massachusetts, in a region which boasts a 98 percent vaccination rate, offers a glimpse of what happens when students are given the opportunity to move from mandatory to optional masking. During their brief masking-optional pilot, the school reported that “smiling is more contagious than covid-19,” and a survey of students found that 70 percent said the policy improved their experience, including their ability to learn.

This is something that mask-optional school districts have known for months. It’s why parents have been fighting so hard for “one-way masking.”

The omicron wave will soon be behind us, and, barring the imminent arrival of the next variant, we can all hope for quieter times this spring. We urge public health and school officials to educate communities on one-way masking, emphasizing personal choice regarding self-protection and supporting those who choose to remain masked. Time and energy that staff spend policing mask use is far better spent on teaching and supporting children. It’s time we stopped worrying about what others are doing and started focusing on protecting ourselves. We have many more tools in 2022 than we did in 2020, and our policies should shift to reflect these advances.

Our children have sacrificed a lot to protect us. Now it’s time for us to give them their childhood back.

“Personal choice,” “supporting those who choose to remain masked…” Looks like freedom. Sounds like freedom. Perhaps freedom is breaking out all over the schools.

Unfortunately, we know that not to be the case. If they weren’t allowing the option to wear masks before, they certainly won’t do it now.

DeSantis Aims to Fix Failure to Prosecute Florida Election Crimes

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

A crisis of government malfeasance has hurt the integrity of our elections for well over a decade, and things are only getting worse. Prosecutors, both at the county and federal level, are not prosecuting election crimes.

We now have hard data from Florida that shows serious potential election crimes have been ignored by both county and federal prosecutors in the Sunshine State.

This matters because vote fraud deniers will crow about how rare voter fraud is. If there are few convictions, they will say, then there must not be much fraud.

Whether or not prosecutors are pursuing possible election crimes they know about, however, is the weak link in that logical chain. And for the first time, we have a snapshot of data about failure to pursue election crimes.

This matters because Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has proposed the creation of state authority to investigate and prosecute election crimes.

Let’s examine the data.

In just the 2018 and 2020 federal elections, election officials in just nine large Florida counties made over 150 election crime referrals to county prosecutors. County election officials are probably the best possible origin for an election crime referral. After all, this is their business and they have the experience and know the signs. You can read the full report, “Safe Harbor,” containing all the data here.

These election crime referrals were for acts such as voting twice, voting from illegal addresses, and foreigners voting.

Were all of the referrals lead pipe lock crimes? Maybe, maybe not. But you can bet some were.

Of those 156 referrals, guess how many resulted in actual criminal prosecutions?

If you guessed zero, you’d be right. Not one single county prosecutor did anything. No charges. No arrests. No convictions. As far anyone can tell, no nothing.

This is Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Duval, Pinellas, Polk, St. Lucie, and Alachua. The big boys. In Hillsborough County—Tampa—the Soros-funded county election supervisor said he has a policy never to refer election crimes to prosecutors.

When you don’t prosecute election crimes, you get more election crimes.

For a long time, the Heritage Foundation has been filling a database with election crime convictions and penalties. If there are only a few thousand voter fraud convictions—convictions you can peruse by state here at the Heritage Foundation voter fraud database—vote fraud-deniers like Robert Reich will claim voter fraud isn’t really a problem. Of course, we know all cases of theft aren’t caught, much less reduced to a conviction in court.

Imagine if we learned county prosecutors were failing to prosecute theft cases referred by the police.

The data matter also because Governor Ron DeSantis has proposed a solution to this government malfeasance, at least in Florida.

Establishment media, however, have sprung into action to stymie DeSantis. The Tampa Bay Times, after first rejecting an op-ed from this author describing the non-prosecution data in Safe Harbor, published a piece by vote fraud-denier Daniel Ruth: “What will Florida’s voter fraud agents do with all that free time?”

The Washington Post was even more disingenuous. Reporter Beth Reinhard was aware of all the data from the Safe Harbor report showing non-prosecution of election crimes by county prosecutors in Florida. She ignored the data in her story and instead asked for the IRS 990 forms of the organization that produced the report.

Priorities.

This same malfeasance has affected the United States Justice Department for the last 14 years. More on that in a moment.

Naturally, the vote fraud-deniers will argue that the cases were probably all too flimsy to prosecute, so the data mean nothing.

Go with that. But anyone with common sense knows better.

I’ve heard all the excuses on the inside and out of government.

In my time at the Voting Section at the United States Department of Justice, I encountered a profound hostility among the rank and file to doing anything about voter fraud. Indeed, I appeared on Fox News numerous times calling for the head of the Election Crimes Branch, Richard Pilger, to be fired because of his role in blocking numerous election crime investigations.

To much fanfare, Pilger resigned in a fury right after the November 2020 election, was lionized on MSNBC, and then we found out he really didn’t resign. He just went on an extended coffee break but is back standing in the way of any federal voter fraud investigations.

Since Obama took office, there have essentially been two federal prosecutions of voter fraud, both because Trump-appointed U.S. Attorneys blasted by Pilger’s blocks. Both were for non-citizens voting in Texas and North Carolina.

Fourteen years. Two federal efforts.

It isn’t as if there aren’t other opportunities. For years, the FBI and U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of Florida (Miami) were provided with rock-solid information about people voting in Florida and in other states for the same federal election. Snowbird double voters, you might call them.

Instead of doing anything, federal employees with a duty to enforce the law made excuses for the potential criminals. “It might not be the same person.” Or, “how do we know they voted for the same federal office?” Or better yet, “What if someone was just impersonating them?”

Indeed, impersonation would be a federal crime also. One way to answer the FBI’s questions is for the FBI to ask them in the field. It doesn’t look like that happened.

When you don’t prosecute election crimes, you get more election crimes.

Some county prosecutors might be forgiven for their failure to enforce the law. It’s likely that nobody in their prosecutor’s office knows what a federal form is or how a voter history file is created or what UOCAVA, NCOA, MOVE, ERIC, or NVRA mean. The election process is complicated, but that’s all the more reason states should have specially trained investigators and prosecutors.

Some county prosecutors might be chicken. They’ve seen how the left browbeats anyone who prosecutes voter fraud. Criminals get turned into heroes for violating election laws. Melowese Richardson—a criminal who admitted she voted for at least five other people for Obama in Cincinnati—was hugged at a rally by Al Sharpton when she was released from jail.

Foreigners voting in Texas are treated like Rosa Parks. It’s an upside-down world.

That’s why something needs to change. If Florida adopts Governor DeSantis’ plan to have the state investigate and prosecute election crimes, they can start with the hundreds of snowbird double voters and other criminals that Florida prosecutors and the FBI have been ignoring for over a decade.

Confrontation On The Horizon: Federal Government vs. We The People

January 25, 2022 John

New York – -(AmmoLand.com)- Once again, the Deep State is resorting to the seditious legacy Press as their Sounding Board to sway public opinion to their rancid cause. And this Neo-Marxist and Neoliberal Globalist captured Press is, true to form, falling back on the usual dreary, boring rhetoric of racism to chastise and cajole anyone who fails to support the passage of their ridiculous measures.

See two Fox news articles just posted, January 18, 2022. One Fox news article is titled “Liberal media use Martin Luther King Jr. day to push election Legislation, claim ‘voting rights under assault,’” and the other Fox news article is titled, “Schumer tells Democrats to reluctant to nuke filibuster: ‘We are all going to go on the record.’”

These Deep State Globalists are intent on maintaining a stranglehold on the Nation, insistent on the usurpation of the sovereignty of the citizenry to maintain indefinite and absolute control over the Federal Government, over the Nation’s institutions, and over the Nation’s people.

And this unlawful usurpation of the citizenry’s sovereignty by a rogue, treasonous, tyrannical Federal Government and a duplicitous Congress is too painfully evident to be reasonably denied. To enshrine a successful Counterrevolution in perpetuity, these plotters need to have absolute control over the electoral system. And their blueprint for that was laid out in the takeover of the 2020 General Election, which saw a quiet coup of Government. And these conspirators are hell-bent on keeping the lid on that, censoring, ridiculing, and strong-arming any American who insists on questioning the legitimacy of the election that took place—that resulted in the ousting of Donald Trump, and the seating of the corrupt, senile dimwit and subservient toady of the Neo-Marxists/Neoliberal Globalists, Joe Biden, into the U.S. Presidential suite.

The American people need to remember and constantly remind themselves that, despite the coup d’état of the Federal Government, through the wide-ranging, unlawful scheming and fraud of the 2020 General Election, the American people still wield, by right, ultimate and sole sovereignty over Government. But it is not succored for them, as they can see. They must assert it.

And there must eventually be an accounting, and there will be an accounting, after the 2022 Midterm elections. And the American people are holding fast to and must continue to hold fast to their firearms.

Many other Americans, who, in their dim memory, recall the sacred right of the people to keep and bear arms, are purchasing firearms and ammunition for the first time, recognizing a free Constitutional Republic is rapidly falling from their grasp. And they are prepared to assert their lawful power over the Government.

This absolutely terrifies the ruthless forces—operating silently in the shadows—both here and abroad. For far too long they have exerted inordinate influence and power over their many toadies——

In the Federal Government
In Many State and Local Governments;
In the Public and Private Health Fields;
In the Press, in Social Media, and “Big Tech;”
In Broadcast and Cable News and Commentary;
In Academia and Public Education;
In Business, High finance, and the Central (Federal Reserve) Bank;
In Sports and other Entertainment.

And with the exceptionally good reason these ruthless, powerful forces are terrified of America’s many armed citizens. But these destructive forces can’t back down now. They can’t ease up on their grand one-world takeover game plan. They have come much too far for that.

Yes, they have been able to prevent the Populist Donald Trump from securing a second term in office, albeit through massive election fraud, chicanery, and illegal electoral engineering. And they have unlawfully silenced dissent. And they have unlawfully denied to tens of thousands of American citizens, operation of the citizens’ sacred Constitutional Rights through blatant and glaring, disregard of and outright violations of the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. They have pushed the American people against a wall.

And so, the forces that dare to crush our Nation and its people into submission must see their game through to the end: it is all, or nothing at all—both for them and for us.

How do we know this? The absurdist, farcical play the Marxists and Neoliberal Globalists puppet-masters have staged to date demonstrates how frantic they are to control the actions and thoughts of the American people.

These destructive agencies must proceed forthwith with their agenda, that they may undertake the grand finale: their dangerous endgame. They must and will, at some point, attempt to confiscate the firearms of the American people en masse.

But… Hold the line! No Violence!

Just consider the outright, outrageous unconstitutional actions and schemes that Americans have suffered to date through the deceit and machinations and illegal maneuvering of the treachery of many in the Federal Government and through the treachery of many actors outside the Government as well—taunting, challenging, daring the American people to resist.

[They want the Patriots to start the fight, so they can point and say we caused the civil war, DON’T give them the ground. Hold the line! No Violence.]

Consider These Outrageous Assaults On Our Constitution And On The Sovereignty Of The American People:

Creation of Nancy Pelosi’s “Star Chamber” January 6 Commission
Establishment of the DOJ Department’s newly formed Domestic Terrorism Unit, to target and hunt down American citizens
Insidious Attacks on America’s Moms and Dads, and on Trump Supporters
Continued Mindless, Senseless Denigration of and Attacks on Donald Trump
Incoherent, Duplicitous Disinformation/Misinformation/Pseudo-Information Campaigns Orchestrated by the Federal Government, the Legacy Press, and Major Social Media Companies, all directed against the population at large
Psychological Conditioning Programs Designed to Produce and Provoke Mass Confusion, Anxiety, and Hysteria in the Nation’s Citizenry and in the Nation’s youth and young adults
The Perpetration and Perpetuation of an outlandish fictitious pseudo-religious dogma grounded absurdly on the Glorification of Victimhood and on the Idea of the Moral Righteousness of Social and Sexual Deviancy and of a host of other Psychological Pathologies
De facto Abrogation of Natural, Basic Rights and Liberties of the Citizenry
The Contemptuous Dismissal of U.S. Supreme Court Orders and Decisions; and Disdainful Disregard of Congressional Statutes
Governmental Policy Decisions and Initiatives Designed and Calibrated to Destabilize Society, Weaken the Economy, and Endanger National Security
Odd tolerance toward, even outright enabling of, harmful, illegal Actions of the worst, most detestable elements of Society and, concomitantly, Clampdowns on the Freedoms and Autonomy of Average, Responsible, Rational Americans
The Presumptuous, Outrageous Opening of the Nation’s Territorial Borders to Millions of Itinerant illegal aliens, many of whom have been deported from the country several times before but who are given Sanctuary in the U.S. by the Administration in clear violation of the Nation’s Immigration Laws
Creation of new voting blocs from the millions of illegal aliens, convicted felons, lunatics, malleable adolescents, malcontents, and slothful individuals
Seditious Pronouncements and Narratives Passed off as “News” by a Press that is in league with the Neo-Marxist/Neoliberal Globalist Agenda to Eradicate a free Constitutional Republic
Neo-Marxist Legislators blatantly and egregiously telling Social Media and Big Tech Kingpins to engage in further Censoring of Speech instead of urging restraint and the refraining of censorship, on pain of Congressional action
Harris-Biden Administration nominations of the most corrupt, ill-suited, inept, Anti-American, and, in some instances, strange and bizarre cast of characters ever to hold public office
House Passage of the Voting Rights Package, combining the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act—a Bald-faced, Shameless Attempt by Congressional Marxists to unlawfully bypass Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution—thereby federalizing the election process that belongs solely to the States and ensuring that Neo-Marxists retain control of Congress in November 2022 after the Midterm elections
Unmitigated, incessant Lying and Deceit directed toward the American People
A painfully and oddly taciturn Republican Members of the Senate and House, seemingly oblivious to the blatant Neo-Marxist/Neoliberal Globalist attempt to destroy the Republic: Have they been bribed to remain quiet, or are most of them just frightened docile little lambs themselves, afraid to lock horns with the Neo-Marxist/Neoliberal Globalist toadies and puppet-masters?

How can the Federal Government and various State Governments, along with the Press, and Social Media Companies, get away with continuous wholesale evisceration and immolation of our Nation and its people? The short answer is: They can’t; at least not legally anyway, but for the fact that Americans allow this to happen, at least tacitly.

But how long will Americans put up with this dangerous nonsense and are you ready to Get OUT AND VOTE like never before in 2022?
