RACIST extremist groups, including neo-Nazis and other white supremacists, are encouraging members who contract novel coronavirus disease to spread the contagion to cops and Jews, according to intelligence gathered by the FBI. In an alert obtained by ABC News, the FBI’s New York office reports that "members of extremist groups are encouraging one another to spread the virus, if contracted, through bodily fluids and personal interactions." --- ABC News
DURING THE Communist Coup in Russia in 1917, the Bolsheviks released prisoners to create havoc and instability. Here we go:
President Trump is considering issuing an executive order to release elderly, nonviolent offenders from federal prisons amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The president said he was considering the move on Sunday during a press conference on the fight to contain the coronavirus. The virus has proved to be particularly contagious in prisons and jailswhere large numbers of inmates live in close proximity to each other. Rikers Island in New York City has reported nearly 40 cases of the COVID-19 virus among guards and prisoners. (more…)
FROM Anthony Migchels: Meanwhile, they’re just shutting down the real economy. Just destroying the livelihoods of millions of people all over the West, locking down entire sectors, offering 1000 bucks (1500 Euro’s in Holland) to make ends meet in the months ahead in exchange. Aren’t they great? Is Big Brother not reaching out? Is it any wonder that the multitude are very grateful? Getting saved from The Bug, and next getting a hand out too? Sadly, reality landing won’t take long. A few thousand Fed bucks are not going to replace weeks and months of real production. The US Economy is projected to implode with 14% next quarter. Talk about torching the place. It is not going to seriously console millions of newly unemployed. Bankrupt small business. The main target, as always, is the West. America in particular.
Comments Off on The Big, Bad Bug — and a Few Bucks
PENNSYLVANIA Governor Tom Wolfe had no authority to shut businesses down. His mandate was a mandate despite his double talk. The same is true of other governors who have taken unlawful and authoritarian measures against the coronavirus. Marc Scaringi at The Western Journal comments.
FROM Stanford Professor John Ioannidas, professor of medicine, biomedical data science, statistics, and epidemiology and population health, writing last Tuesday:
If we had not known about a new virus out there, and had not checked individuals with PCR tests, the number of total deaths due to “influenza-like illness” would not seem unusual this year. At most, we might have casually noted that flu this season seems to be a bit worse than average. The media coverage would have been less than for an NBA game between the two most indifferent teams.

IN THIS AGE of Counterfeit Catholicism, praying the ancient and unchangeable liturgy of the Catholic Church at home is what a small but growing number of Catholics do every Sunday. Now that your church is likely closed, consider joining them by praying the true Mass at home. It is not ideal, but Catholics have done it for many centuries when they did not have access to the sacraments. I highly recommend Gerry Matatics's CD lecture, "What Do Recusant Catholics Do on Sunday?;" his other talks are outstanding too. Matatics's personal story is fascinating. He was raised in an atheistic home and became obsessively interested in the Bible as a teenager. He became a full Presbyterian minister but then converted to Catholicism. The Bible, he said, converted him. For Protestant readers, and actually anyone, I highly recommend his great and entertaining lecture, "How the Bible Converted Me to Catholicism: One Protestant Minister's Surprising Journey of Faith." With everything closed by government fiat, this is a good time to learn more. This is a good time, the best of times, to pray. Come to Mass! Come, children, come to Mass, and bring your merry hearts with you. Come, you that are young and happy, and rejoice before the Lord. Come, you that are old and weary, and tell your loneliness to God. Come, you that are sorely tempted, and ask the help of heaven. Come, you that have sinned, and weep between…
FROM Heather Mac Donald: To ask about the costs and benefits of the spreading economic shutdowns guarantees an accusation of heartlessness. But the issue is not human compassion versus alleged greed. The issue is balancing one target of compassion against another. The millions of people whose lives depend on a functioning economy also deserve compassion. Many of the businesses that are now being shuttered by decree will never come back. They do not have the reserves to survive weeks or months without customers. In New York City, many streets were already blighted by rows of empty storefronts. The virus shutdown could knock out the remaining enterprises, as customers acclimate themselves further to ordering on-line. Lay-offs are piling up in restaurants, hotels, and malls; on Tuesday, unemployment claims in California were 40 times above the daily average, an increase greater than any coronavirus surge. It is low-wage employees who are most being hurt. The knowledge class can shelter in place and work from their home computers. Their employers are not shutting down. Not so people who physically provide goods and services. The employees who have been let off now may not be able to find work again if the economy continues to collapse. While governors and mayors declare some businesses essential and some not, to their employees, they are all essential. A prolonged depression will stunt lives as surely as any viral epidemic, and its toll will not be confined to the…
If indeed the emanations thrown off from the living body formed permanent and powerful poisons, like miasms connected with the products of decomposition, and if they were, like such products, capable of being conveyed unchanged to great distances, we should be able to live only in solitude; we could never meet in society, for we should poison each other; the first symptom of illness would be the signal for the abandonment of the sick, and we should be compelled by a due regard to self-preservation to withhold from persons afflicted with disease every kind and degree of assistance that required personal attendance.
Happily, we are not so constituted, and the evidence that has been adduced of the narrowness of the sphere even of the most virulent contagion, shows the groundlessness of the alarm sometimes entertained respecting this dreaded agent, while it points to the certain means of destroying it. The London Fever Hospital is separated from the Small-Pox Hospital only by the space of between thirty and forty feet, and the windows of the wards of both establishments are immediately opposite each other: yet there is no instance of the communication of small-pox to the typhus patients, nor of typhus to the small-pox patients; nor of either disease to the convalescent, or to the official inmates of the adjoining establishment. There does not appear to be a single instance on record, in any country, of the extension of infection beyond the walls of an hospital, or even of a lazar-house, so as to injure in any manner the nearest inhabitants.(more…)
FROM Gary D. Barnett: "I HAVE watched this take place, and it was structured incrementally, all along testing the gullibility and fear of the populace, and as it progressed, it became obvious to those perpetrating this lie that taking over the entire country was going to be a cakewalk. "What is happening now is exactly as Bill Gates previewed it in his idiocy called Event 201, which seems to have been the initial test and propaganda piece set in place to start this engine. This was no coincidence, regardless of what the mainstream media and globalists’ claim, but was an active exercise for what was to come. And yes, this is real conspiracy, not 'conspiracy theory.' "I will not relent in my efforts to expose the fact that the U.S. economy has been decimated due to spending, debt, and money creation for many years. Considering the situation in 2008, when all markets should have failed, the current economic picture is not only far worse, but has reached the pinnacle of disaster. This economy cannot be saved by money printing, QE, or sending checks out to those that have been forcibly relieved of their jobs by government fiat. I firmly believe that a major factor in why this so-called pandemic was created is to shift blame for the impending economic collapse on this virus, and hide the fact that the Fed and central banks around the world completely destroyed the economy. Had…
"CDC estimates that influenza was associated with more than 35.5 million illnesses, more than 16.5 million medical visits, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths during the 2018–2019 influenza season. This burden was similar to estimated burden during the 2012–2013 influenza season1." --- Centers for Disease Control
THE CORONA Emperor has no clothes --- and all the scientists pretend that he does. There is serious illness out there, and that is very sad, but it's not the pandemic we are being led to believe it is. Recent flu seasons have been worse. More than 60,000 Americans died in the 2017-2018 flu season. More than 20,000 died in the 2018-19 season, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
I LIKE what Chuck Baldwin says in his latest column about adults not showing fear:
My parents lived through the Great Depression (and two World Wars). I grew up listening to their experiences of living in the Depression. For poor people (which my parents were), the Depression was horrific. Today’s Americans know nothing of suffering in the magnitude of that terrible period of U.S. history.
And I can tell you emphatically that at no point did my parents (or grandparents or aunts and uncles) ever show fear. Never! Neither did they demonstrate selfishness nor panic. They spoke repeatedly of deprivation, sickness and want, but never of fear. And selfishness was not in their vocabulary. In the worst of times, they prayed, worked and worshiped together….
… Mark this down: When people are consumed with fear, they have already surrendered their hearts and minds to tyranny. [bold added]
It’s worth reading his column in full. Here’s more: (more…)
World Health Organization Director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus
KIM from Canada writes:
World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has lived most of his adult life as a “revolutionary” against formal, established systems. His political agenda, as is the case with contemporary Marxists, is to destabilize Western thought and Western civilization. The WHO is a hotbed for such appointed officials, clever at garnering huge funds and stealthy at undermining countries and regions which do not follow their political ideals.
In appointing him, the WHO found the perfect blend of a well-trained and intelligent leader who uses his position to realign the geopolitics of the world.
It is an important post. He has had major influence on the unfolding of the current Covid-19 “pandemic.” His warm relations with China may have been a factor in his response and his overestimation of the death rate.
The following gives some background on Ghebreyesus, who is everywhere identified as an Ethiopian, but is actually from Eritrea. (I refer to him by his first name as Tedros in the following.) He worked in Ethiopia under various regimes, but I think his Eritrean background identifies his world view, his political background, and his politicization of health care. Hence his post in the WHO.
THE social media giant has restricted access to Ron Paul's recent column on the coronavirus. (Paul was wrong in labeling the illness itself a "hoax" because he certainly was not denying the existence of an infectious strain of coronavirus. I don't know why he titled this column, and the video counterpart, so misleadingly.) At issue is Dr. Paul's statement that National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Anthony Fauci's claim that the coronavirus is "ten times more deadly" than the seasonal influenza virus is “without any scientific basis." Fauci made the claim recently in testimony before the US Congress in a move that significantly ramped up the fear factor in the US over the virus. --- Read more here Also, Youtube is using the virus panic to justify more general censorship.
Pay attention folks, there’s much more going on here than what meets the eye. Is it a coincidence that just when the economy is booming, the stock market is setting record highs, we are winning the trade wars, school shootings have stopped, our nation is at peace, the Democratic party is a disaster and so is their likely nominee (Biden). He hasn’t a chance in hell & they’re not about to let an outsider (Bernie) destroy their scheme. It looks like Trump is a sure bet for reelection after fending off 3 years of investigations and impeachment, then all the sudden world crisis pandemic.
Stock market tumbles, companies are laying off employees, everything is closed and canceled, CEO’s of giant companies are resigning and indictments are coming. Now they say there are a couple ways a President doesn’t win reelection. (more…)
SOME common sense observations from Ramzpaul. I wonder whether the reason Chinese and Italian men have been harder hit is that many are heavy smokers. Most of the fatalities in Italy were among old people with other chronic health conditions. Heavy smoking causes emphysema in old age. A significant percentage of those who have died had emphysema.
