China Unveils Roadmap To End Ukraine Conflict (RT)

The international community should encourage all efforts to end the Ukraine conflict peacefully, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said in a 12-point political roadmap published on Friday. In a statement on its website, the ministry urged each side to “stay rational and exercise restraint.” “All parties should support Russia and Ukraine in working in the same direction and resuming direct dialogue as quickly as possible, so as to gradually deescalate the situation and ultimately reach a comprehensive ceasefire,” the document said. “All efforts conducive to the peaceful settlement of the crisis must be encouraged and supported,” the plan stressed, adding that Beijing would “continue to play a constructive role” in the matter.

China called for abandoning “the Cold War mentality,” arguing that “the security of a region should not be achieved by strengthening or expanding military blocs.” There is “no simple solution to a complex issue,” the proposal said, and countries should “prevent bloc confrontation” and work towards building “a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture.” Beijing warned against “armed attacks” on nuclear power plants and called on the parties to “resolutely avoid man-made nuclear accidents.” China also said it opposes sanctions that are not approved by the UN Security Council. “Unilateral sanctions and maximum pressure cannot solve the issue; they only create new problems.”

Unlike many Western countries, ChinaA has refused to condemn Russia’s military operation in Ukraine and has not imposed economic restrictions on Moscow. Chinese officials have stressed that Beijing wants to find a peaceful solution rather than fuel the conflict by sending weapons to Kiev. Russia sent troops to Ukraine exactly a year ago, citing the need to protect the people of Donbass and Kiev’s failure to implement the 2014-2015 Minsk peace accords. Ukraine, meanwhile, accused Moscow of unprovoked aggression. Ceasefire negotiations effectively broke down by April 2022. Chinese State Councilor Wang Yi traveled to Moscow this week, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Putin later said that he was expecting Chinese President Xi Jinping to visit Russia sometime in the future.

China Publishes Its Proposals On Ukrainian Crisis Settlement (Az.)

The foreign ministry of China published its proposals for a political settlement of the crisis in Ukraine on its website on February 24, Report informs referring to TASS. The 12-point settlement plan, put forward by the Chinese side, includes a call for de-escalation and ceasefire. “All sides should show rationality and restraint, avoid fueling tensions or taking steps to aggravate the conflict, avert further escalation and prevent the situation from spinning out of control, assist contacts between Russia and Ukraine and resumption of direct dialogue, promote gradual de-escalation and detente until the fire and hostilities cease completely,” the document says. “Peace negotiations should begin. Dialogue and negotiations are the only way to settle the crisis in Ukraine. All efforts aimed at resolving the crisis peacefully need to be encouraged and supported.”

Besides, China urges to pay attention to, and ease in a proper way legitimate security interests and concerns of all countries. “Cold War mentality should be abandoned. Security of one country should not be ensured through harming the security of other states, and regional security cannot be maintained through strengthening and expansion of military blocs,” the Chinese foreign ministry said. “Legitimate security interests and concerns of all countries should be taken into account, and properly eased.” Also, Beijing urges to resolve the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine and prevent it from spreading. “The humanitarian crisis needs to be resolved. All measures that help to mitigate the humanitarian crisis need to be encouraged and supported. Humanitarian missions should be conducted in accordance with the principle of neutrality and impartiality, in order not to politicize humanitarian issues,” the document says, adding that safety of civilians needs to be properly ensured.

“It is necessary to increase humanitarian aid to relevant areas, improve the humanitarian situation, ensure prompt, safe and unhindered humanitarian access and prevent the crisis from spreading,” the Chinese foreign ministry said. Besides, China supports the prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine and calls for creating favorable conditions for that. “The protection of civilians and prisoners of war needs to be ensured,” the ministry said. “China supports a prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine, all sides should create more favorable conditions for that.” The document emphasized that all parties to the conflict should adhere to the international humanitarian law, avoid attacks on civilians and civilian facilities, protect women and children and defend the basic rights of prisoners of war.

It also calls for ensuring that grain exports to the global market continue: “All sides must honor the agreement on grain transportation via the Black Sea – signed by Russia, Türkiye, Ukraine and the United Nations – in a balanced, all-encompassing and effective form.” The document also urges to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons and avoid a nuclear crisis, and calls to maintain security of nuclear power plants. “Strategic risks need to be reduced. Nuclear weapons must never be used, a nuclear war must never be unleashed. It is necessary to resist the use of nuclear weapons and threats to use it, to prevent nuclear proliferation and to avert a nuclear crisis,” the document says. “China strongly opposes attacks on nuclear power plants and other civilian nuclear facilities. We call upon all sides to respect the international law, including the Convention on nuclear safety.”

On top of that, “China opposes development and use of biological and chemical weapons by any country, under any circumstances.” Also, the foreign ministry of China opposes any unilateral sanctions over the crisis in Ukraine, imposed without a relevant decision of the UN Security Council. “Unilateral sanctions [should be] stopped,” the document says. “We oppose introducing any unilateral sanctions without the UN Security Council’s decision. “Stability of supply and delivery chains needs to be ensured. All sides should duly protect the existing system of the global economy, oppose attempts to politicize, instrumentalize and weaponize it,” the statement continues. It also calls for a joint effort to mitigate the crisis and its effects on global cooperation in the sectors of energy, finance, food trade and transport.

“.. Trump called Nuland and “others like her” in the Biden administration “warmongers and ‘America Last’ globalists.”

Elon Musk Accuses Victoria Nuland Of ‘Pushing War’ In Ukraine (RT)

“Nobody is pushing” the conflict in Ukraine more than US State Department official Victoria Nuland, Twitter CEO Elon Musk said on Wednesday. Nuland, who largely orchestrated the pro-Western coup in Kiev in 2014, is now backing military strikes on the Russian territory of Crimea. Nuland’s declaration last Thursday that Russian military bases in Crimea are “legitimate targets” for Ukrainian forces was received by the Kremlin as proof of “US involvement in the Ukraine conflict.” In a post on Telegram, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev warned that Moscow would respond to such attacks “using weapons of any kind.” “Nobody is pushing this war more than Nuland,” wrote Musk, who has previously warned that nuclear war could break out unless Ukraine abandons its claims to Crimea and both sides agree to peace talks.

Nuland’s involvement in the Ukraine conflict predates Russia’s military operation, ordered one year ago on Friday by President Vladimir Putin. As assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian Affairs in 2014, Nuland helped organize the coup that saw Ukraine’s democratically-elected president, Viktor Yanukovich, replaced with the pro-Western Pyotr Poroshenko, who then began a campaign of military repression against the people of Donetsk and Lugansk.= During the coup, Nuland handed out cookies to protesters in Kiev and promised pro-Western politicians military aid and a billion-dollar loan guarantee program. In an infamous leaked call between Nuland and then-US Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt, the two discussed which person should replace Yanukovich from a list of opposition politicians.

After leaving the State Department during Donald Trump’s presidency, Nuland is now serving as President Joe Biden’s deputy secretary of state for political affairs. In recent months, she has endorsed regime change in Russia, celebrated the US’ alleged destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines, and called for the indefinite flow of arms into Ukraine. sMusk is not the only prominent American to condemn Nuland’s role in instigating the conflict in recent days. In a campaign video released on Tuesday, former President Donald Trump called Nuland and “others like her” in the Biden administration “warmongers and ‘America Last’ globalists.” Nuland was “obsessed with pushing Ukraine towards NATO,” he declared, claiming that the conflict would have “never happened if I was your president.”

US Seeks To Discuss New START Implementation With Russia – Nuland (TASS)

The US authorities would like to get back to inspections as part of the New START nuclear arms control treaty and have a chance to discuss with Russia the implementation of this agreement, US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland said in an interview with Washington Post. When asked if Russia’s suspension of the treaty would make any difference for the US in terms of behavior, the top State Department official said: “We will not [do this] and we’ve made that clear to the Russians.”


According to Nuland, Washington has “no intention or need” to resume testing. “We would like to get back into mutual inspections. We would like to get back to a place where we can sit at a table and talk about implementation [of the treaty],” she said. Nuland also assured that the US is not interested in rebuilding its nuclear weapons. The top State Department official said the US is trying to understand what Russia’s decision on suspending its participation in New START would mean in practical terms.

19% Of Americans Have Confidence In Biden’s Handling Of Ukraine Conflict (SN)

An Associated Press and NORC poll has found that fewer than 20 percent of Americans have a “great deal” of confidence in the way Joe Biden is involving the U.S. in the Ukraine conflict. The survey reveals that only 19 percent of the public have a “great deal” of confidence in Biden’s ability, while 37 percent say they have “only some” confidence,” and 43 percent have “hardly any” confidence.

The poll also found that only 42 percent approve of the way Biden is handling the U.S.’ relationship with Russia, while 54 percent disapprove. The poll also found that a quarter of respondents believe the U.S. shouldn’t be playing any role in the war, with a further 49 percent saying that the U.S. should only have minor role. Just 26 percent believe the U.S. should be playing a major role.

The poll also found that while 59 percent of Democrats said they were in favour of sending government funds directly to Ukraine, just 21 percent of Republicans concur. The figures represent a decrease in support among both groups, as last year 63 percent of Democrats and 28 percent of Republicans said they were in favour. The findings come after Biden’s probable 2024 opponent Donald Trump declared that he would negotiate a peace deal and end the conflict within 24 hours, as well as ousting all the “demented warmongers and globalists” currently occupying the U.S. National Security establishment.

“..Never in the history of Europe has the continent been so “subservient” to the US..”

Russia-EU Relations ‘No Longer Exist’ – Moscow (RT)

Relations between the European Union and Russia are practically nonexistent, consumed by the abyss of EU subservience to the US, the Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia told the Security Council on Thursday. Moscow had said in June 2022 that the “bottom had fallen out” when it came to relations with Brussels, Nebenzia said in his speech at the UN. “It turns out there was an entire abyss below still, that swallowed up not only our relations – which are basically nonexistent now – but also the EU itself,” he said. “A year after completely severing ties with our country, the GDP growth of the EU has stuck near zero. At the same time, record inflation rates are measured by double-digit indicators. Rejoicing that it jumped off the ‘Russian gas needle,’ the EU got hooked on ‘hard drugs’ – expensive American liquefied natural gas,” the Russian diplomat added.

Nebenzia also accused the EU of openly discussing how to dismember and destroy Russia. Earlier this week, the Estonian prime minister suggested Russian history needs to be rewritten and its population re-educated, to protect Europe from “Russian imperialist dreams.” Never in the history of Europe has the continent been so “subservient” to the US, Nebenzia argued, pointing to last September’s sabotage of Nord Stream. “Things have come to the point where Brussels has silently swallowed that its closest ally blew up the main gas pipeline, which was also paid for by European investors,” he said, adding that EU members are even covering up inconvenient truths in order to shield the US.

The twin pipelines running under the Baltic Sea were built to supply the continent with Russian natural gas via Germany. Denmark, Sweden and Germany have refused Russian requests for information about their investigation into the blasts. In an article published earlier this month, American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh claimed the US and Norway had conspired to destroy the pipelines and described how they carried it out. Russia has called for a UN investigation into the sabotage. The US has denied any responsibility for the Nord Stream bombing.

Moscow Analyzes Brazil’s Peace Initiatives On Ukraine (TASS)

Moscow is studying Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s peace proposals for Ukraine, but it is taking into account the evolving situation “on the ground”, Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin said in an interview with TASS. “We took note of the President of Brazil’s statements on the subject of possible mediation in order to find political ways to prevent escalation in Ukraine, correcting miscalculations in the field of international security on the basis of multilateralism, and considering the interests of all players. We are examining initiatives, mainly from the standpoint of Brazil’s balanced policy, and, of course, taking into consideration the situation ‘on the ground’,” he said. Galuzin emphasized the importance of Brazil’s view, which is Moscow’s strategic partner both bilaterally and globally.


“We are interacting constructively in the BRICS, G20, UN and its Security Council, where this nation is now represented as a non-permanent member,” he added. Russia appreciates Brazil not supplying weapons to Kiev despite US pressure, Deputy Foreign Minister emphasized. “I would like to emphasize that Russia values Brazil’s balanced position in the current international situation, its rejection of unilateral coercive measures taken by the US and its satellites against our country, and the refusal of our Brazilian partners to supply arms, military equipment, and ammunition to the Kiev regime,” he said. “At the same time, we can see how Washington is putting pressure on Brazil. Such sovereign stance deserves respect,” Galuzin added. Earlier, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva stated that the country’s officials had no intention of transferring weapons and ammunition to third countries to be used in the Ukrainian conflict.

“It’s not going to help the war. What he was doing it for, was to prevent Germany and Western Europe, in case the winter came quickly, from opening up the pipeline..”

Seymour Hersh Explains Why US Blew Up Nord Stream (RT)

US President Joe Biden ordered the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines in order to make sure Germany could not change its mind about sanctions against Russia and weapons shipments to Ukraine, investigative journalist Seymour Hersh said in an interview with ‘Going Underground’. Earlier this month, Hersh published an article that blamed the US and Norway for the series of explosions that disabled both Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2, the pipelines under the Baltic Sea built to supply Western Europe with Russian natural gas. In an interview with Afshin Rattansi this week, Hersh said the US intelligence community hatched the plan “in late 2021,” before the escalation of hostilities in Ukraine.

When Biden and Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland both publicly spoke about “stopping” and “ending” Nord Stream 2, however, Hersh claimed the spies were upset, “because it was supposed to be a covert operation.” “The people who did this thing in the intelligence community, they initially thought it was a great idea,” Hersh told Rattansi. According to his story, the bombs were planted in June, during the scheduled BALTOPS 2022 naval exercise off the Danish island of Bornholm. The bombs went off in late September, as Ukraine was facing “a serious issue” on the battlefield. “It’s not going to help the war. What he was doing it for, was to prevent Germany and Western Europe, in case the winter came quickly, from opening up the pipeline,” Hersh said.

The rationale for the mission was “to make sure that Europe keeps on supporting NATO and keeps funneling arms into what is clearly a proxy war against Russia that’s being fought right now,” he added. Asked whether Moscow had somehow missed the American involvement, and focused on the UK instead, Hersh said he had not spoken to anyone in Russia. One thing he could say is that it would be “absolutely insane” for Russia to blow up its own pipeline. Just about everyone in the pipeline business agrees with that assessment, he added. The White House, the Pentagon and the State Department have all disavowed Hersh’s article as “fiction” and denied all accusations of US involvement in the attack on Nord Stream. Russia has called for an independent UN investigation into what it described as an act of international terrorism.

“It is the start of the final collapse of Western colonialism.”

Why Putin Went to War — One Year Later (Lauria)

It is instructive to compare Russia’s war aims expressed on Feb. 24, 2022 to the state of the conflict today — a year long war of attrition that Russia is slowing winning on the ground. But what was unleashed a year ago today is far from settled and is fraught with supreme danger for all of humanity. The West’s economic war, intended to spur Russians to overthrow their government, has failed spectacularly. The ruble did not collapse despite sanctions on the Russian central bank. Nor has the economy. Instead an alternative economic, commercial and financial system that excludes the West is rising with China, India and Russia in the lead, and most of Asia, Africa and Latin America taking part. It is the start of the final collapse of Western colonialism.


The sanctions instead backfired on the West, especially in Europe. The West is on the outside looking in. The information war has failed across the world. Only the United States and Europe, which consider itself “the world,” believe their own “information.” Even The New York Times on Thursday recognized this. Washington itself is split between realists who want a diplomatic solution and neoconservatives who keep “doubling down” on supporting Ukraine in the slim hope that it can win on the battlefield, without sparking a direct NATO-Russia war. There will either be a negotiated settlement in which Ukraine loses territory; a total Russian victory; or a third world war, potentially the final war.

“Google systematically destroyed an entire category of written communications every 24 hours.”

Google Accused Of Destroying Evidence In Antitrust Suit (RT)

The US Department of Justice has accused Google of “systematically” destroying records linked to ongoing antitrust litigation, saying the company failed to preserve its internal communications despite a previous order to do so. In a legal filing issued in a Washington, DC federal court on Thursday, DOJ officials said Google has refused to change a feature on its company chat which automatically deletes employees’ logs, adding that it “falsely” claimed to have ended the practice back in 2019. “Google’s daily destruction of written records prejudiced the United States by depriving it of a rich source of candid discussions between Google’s executives, including likely trial witnesses,” said DOJ attorney Kenneth Dintzer.

While the government said Google was required to end the auto-delete function under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the company did not “preserve potentially relevant chats,” meaning that for nearly four years since the antitrust case was launched, “Google systematically destroyed an entire category of written communications every 24 hours.” The DOJ has asked the court to rule that the tech giant violated a civil procedure guideline, and requested a hearing to determine how to penalize Google and demand more information about its internal communications.

In a statement issued on Thursday, Google said it “strongly” rejected the allegations, with a spokesperson arguing its teams have “conscientiously worked for years to respond to inquiries and litigation.” They added that the company has “produced over 4 million documents in this case alone, and millions more to regulators around the world.” The antitrust case against Google was opened in 2020, when the Justice Department said the company is a “monopoly under traditional antitrust principles” in the search engine industry and “must be stopped.” While the government argued the firm has used its market power to disadvantage smaller competitors, Google later slammed the suit as “deeply flawed,” insisting it would “do nothing to help consumers.”

Hunter Biden’s Latest Rebrand Is Just Smoke And Errors (Turley)

Welcome to the latest Hunter Biden reboot. Call it Dark Biden rises. Hunter has long been a reclamation project for the media and the Biden team. Despite ample evidence that he and his family may have engaged in one of the largest influence-peddling operations in history, the media have struggled to find a redeeming image for someone who’s committed his life to a toxic mix of nepotism, narcissism and narcotics. First there was “Hunter: the wrongly accused international businessman.” This blanket denial of wrongdoing was maintained by his father and dutifully repeated by the media. Hunter Biden did “nothing wrong,” and reporters pressing questions of corruption were immediately attacked. Then came “Hunter Biden: victim of Russian disinformation.”

Before the 2020 election, the media repeated the false claim that the Hunter laptop was likely “Russian disinformation.” Despite the denial of American intelligence and self-verifying emails on the laptop, the media accepted without question the dubious claims of former intelligence figures pushed by longtime Democratic operatives. Then it was “Hunter Biden: heroic recovering addict.” As the media denials became more difficult to maintain, Biden released a book that detailed his struggle with drugs and debauchery. The media again launched into the same fawning, unquestioning mode. Now we have the Dark Biden. Hunter’s handlers are reinventing Hunter in a more menacing image. He is an edgy and aggressive antagonist ready to fight fire with fire against Republicans.

A team was assembled to reportedly attack potential witnesses and critics. With a possible criminal indictment and congressional investigations looming, Hunter the wronged businessman or Russian victim or recovering addict will not do. Hunter appears to have acquired lawyers by the gross, including high-profile lawyer Abbe Lowell. Lowell recently sent out a letter that caused a stir by not only confirming the authenticity of the laptop but threatening a host of critics. Lowell categorically refused to turn over a single document to House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), saying there was no “legitimate legislative purpose” for the investigation. He left open the possibility the House might convince Hunter to cooperate.

It’s all bravado and the posturing will be even less credible in the future when he backs down. Congress clearly has a legitimate interest in investigating whether millions of dollars from foreign interests, including some connected to foreign intelligence, were funneled to the Biden family to influence President Biden. [..] Despite the considerable risk, Hunter is keeping to his new character. He has not shared information on his art sales. Now his art dealer, Georges Berges, has also reportedly refused to provide the House Oversight Committee with identities of the buyers. It won t work. Indeed, it is a strategy that could lead to a criminal charge entirely separate from the underlying allegations. It just shows, as Joker stated in The Dark Knight, Madness … is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

The Immediate Need To Screen Blood For mRNA And Spike Protein (Horowitz)

You might be part of that small percentage of adults who were smart enough to avoid the COVID gene therapy and lucky enough not to have it forced upon you to keep your job. But what happens if you ever need blood in the hospital? Or what about those who got the jabs but were lucky enough to have the spike protein leave their systems without much harm? What if you were forced to accept more spike protein through blood transfusions due to a medical emergency? New research points to the imperative for state lawmakers to pass laws requiring that blood banks screen out spike protein from the blood supply. Danish microbiologists published a shocking finding this week in the Journal of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology.

They took samples of blood from 108 hepatitis C patients, and one of the discoveries was that “full-length or traces of SARS-CoV-2 spike mRNA vaccine sequences were found in blood up to 28 days after COVID-19 vaccination.” Lest you think that they were picking up on spike protein from natural infection still lingering in the blood, the researchers meticulously distinguished not just between infection- and vaccine-induced spike protein, but even between the genetic codes of Pfizer and Moderna. It turns out five of those detected were positive for the Pfizer nucleotides and five had the Moderna ones. “To our knowledge, our study is the first to detect Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccine sequences in blood after vaccination, and therefore provides new knowledge regarding the timeframe in which the mRNA can be detected,” observed the authors.

One the one hand, we should be thankful that most did not have detectable spike protein circulating in the blood plasma. But the fact that they found it in 10% of the samples (and contrasted to a control group) raisess the obvious question: How many blood supplies in the blood banks from the general population have spike protein, and if this sample detected spike protein up to 28 days (the extent of the study period), how much longer can it potentially last? Remember, the bombshell study from Stanford last year found spike antigen remaining in germinal cells up to 60 days after injection, and researchers did not study beyond that time frame. Even more disturbing, a study by St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix found exosomes containing spike protein were detectable for up to four months after vaccination. Another paper in Frontiers in Immunology revealed the detection of some spike in monocytes for 15 months!

    Birth Rates Plunge in Heavily Vaccinated Countries

    While true there is another aspect of looking at things. Last week end I was in the local mall. While my wife was checking for her “beauty necessities” i stepped into the Home Furnishing Store near by – the type with a lot of imports. In nearly deserted mall one of the few stores clinging on and even had a some customers and mostly couples. What caught my attention was the site of really young, almost teenagers. The way they were contemplating items in the store confirmed that there is a high level of commitment between them. Which brought me to sad thoughts as of what future lies for them?
    Their marriage, vax and reproductive ability status becomes increasingly meaningless in the grand scheme of things that are unraveling. Just look how the “agenda” is still marching on and pretends that conversation with Bourla, during his hasty walk and hiding behind woman companion in Davos never happened. That his researcher literally revealed obvious criminality, which is not limited only to medical mafia. Atop of that we have a broken finance, problematic energy supply, resources depletion. Then there is possibility of war that some entities are itching for. In another words “interesting, but not prosperous, times lay ahead and hardly the inspiration for the desire to have an offspring.
    All contrary to TVASF‘s relentless drum beat that un-vaxed are somehow exonerated from the troubles ahead. They do have, OK, “some advantage” which may disappear in the light of things that I mentioned.
    Hope that I am wrong.

    Just watched the full Carlson/Dowd interview and enjoyed seeing Tucker beam with excitement as Ed touched on each step of his Covid/vax discovery process. “Me too!” Tucker kept shouting. Even when Ed mentioned how a life crisis propelled him toward a path of better physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health, Tucker had his own version of the same. They were like blood brothers.

    I appreciate that Mr. Dowd is a data man, and steers clear of speculation. He has his theories, I’m sure, but at this stage of the game he doesn’t want to give the enemy any ammunition to hurl back at him and his new book. I think it’s wise to let the data in his book speak for itself. Let them try to refute the data or find a foothold in attacking his character. Good luck with that. One only has to lift the veil on the excess deaths disaster before the ugly face of a coordinated global democide comes into full view.

    “……Birth Rates Plunge in Heavily Vaccinated Countries”

    The vax Spike Protein is for all purposes a new form of STD.

    I’m not any kind of medical expert in STD’s but they constitute a grave concern for having healthy children.

    As phoenixvoice pointed out, women are probably in more danger of receiving spike protein through having sex than men are, but I don’t really know. Certainly the Medical Industrial Mafia® don’t care or know anything about the subject and the Mediawhore Industrial Mafia® would never report about it even if there was relevant information about the topic.

    It’s a closed loop of corruption, lies and deceit in every conceivable nook and cranny of the Empire of Lies®

    The excess deaths and disabilities from the mRNA gene therapy might actually be minor in the long run compared to the long run effect on child bearing.

    The cascading ripple effect could reduce population globally by tens or hundreds of millions of children that never get conceived and the attendant effect on economies, local and national.

    There are specific people who are responsible for this tragedy, specific, not generalized guilt.

    Please don’t hand me that flaming sack of gobshite that “we’re all to blame.”

    No, we’re not.

    Pull your head out of your butt.

    The web is allowing lists of people in positions of power to be located and identified who had a part in this catastrophe and there will be a time when they will be hunted down for their crimes, especially on a local level. There will be no where for them to run and hide from this depravity. The guilty have names and faces and locations.

    Everybody has to be some place at some time.

    I use Firefox. The 3 key extensions I use are uMatrix, uBlock Origin, and Element Blocker. The former are like the old AdBlock extensions. The latter is a fine-grained filter so you can remove/block specific HTML elements from loading in a page. Right-click on a picture and select ‘Block element’ and it’s gone. Sites will get tricky to avoid this, so it can take a bit of tral-and-error get some things blocked, but it works very well.

    Count me in John Day. I don’t “know” Gabbard is brighter than other speakers.
    When you find an answer to this question, please post a reply.
    By what visible/invisible criteria do certain humans assign all their uniformly awful psychological projections onto one person and alternately their favorable projections onto a blank-slate like Tulsi Gabbard?

    (As a self-celebrated, self-awarded National Guardsperson, Tulsi is as ‘anti-War’ as they come, almost as anti-CIA, anti-authority as Sy Hersh. Btw, Seymour, no gray forelock required, is STILL not in prison or dead.)

    Gosh it’s so easy. I hope jb-hb is following this.

    So we’re…12 degrees cooler than the dinosaurs? 6 degrees? 1/6th of the CO2? We’re barely above the Medieval warming period? CO2 correlates but LAGS temperature as shown by ice cores. Lake Mead we already showed HAS THE VALVES WIDE OPEN. They are TRYING to drain it. Input moisture is average and may at this point be high.

    For us math-and-science disabled, 30c is 86f. 10c is 50f. I know that’s anomalous to Auckland, but that’s EVERY DAY, all summer, in most of the US. A not too unusual day for continental weather — say Minnesota or Wisconsin — is ONE HUNDRED degrees change. Say 70f to -10f in +24 hours. With 60 or 70mph winds. Ask Texas. Florida. Canada. Okay, anywhere from Edmonton to Juarez, with 5 States and 2,000 miles (3,000k) between. Kinda the ‘rest of the planet.’

    Actually, hardly notice after a while it happens so often. So I have a hard time freaking out about a really, really average temperature swing or how houses and infrastructure, prices, systems, will all fail because of it. Put on a light jacket, Jesus, not asking you to get the snowshoes out.

    If the seas are hot like magma, why are you so cold? That’s like saying it’s snowing because I’m in New Guinea. Heat ≠ Cold. Also, that’s not what the sea temp records say: they say it’s barely moved. Not “burning hot” more like “barely hot”. Most of the recent temp change was from moving to tanker intake measurements where the temp is reliably higher. The weather since… I think about 1600AD has been incredibly, unusually moderate and is only now getting back to it’s long-term disruption since the last Ice Age. That’s a very hard stat to estimate geologically though we have patterns and stories (like the Native Americans here) that substantiate it.

    But it’s not a day if you can’t meltdown in fear and alarm over it. Reminds me of the recent heat wave in England. They said, “The heat! The copper wires will melt! Sag on the ground! The roads will turn to liquefied tar we all sink to China like La Brea! It’s the end of everything!!!” It was 90f. No. No you won’t. You have 50f left to go, you’ll be fine. Every road and wire in CA is fine, every road and wire in TX is fine. Every road and wire in Arabia is fine: you’ll be fine too.

    You’re fine. Put on a sweater. Have a cuppa. Tend the sunflowers.

    ‘CO2 correlates but LAGS temperature as shown by ice cores.’

    Still flogging that dead horse in the hope it will walk Dr D.

    It won’t because it’s a dead horse, buried long ago, in fact.

    For the umpteenth time, CO2 increases followed temperature changes before industrial humans poured megazillions of tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere (and oceans).

    So, for the umpteenth time: de-sequestration of previously sequestered carbon creates an entirely new set of conditions and previous heat balances no longer apply.

    I know it is quite normal for humans to resist facts when they don’t fit preconceived narratives. And that is exactly what you are doing when you keep repeating unscientific (anti-scientific) bullshit.

    However, we also that presenting scientific facts has zero influence on beliefs. Didn’t Paul Simon sing, “A man hears what he want to hear and disregards the rest”?

    I’m not sure how that should be punctuated. But it’s not going to matter anyway and I have better things to do that argue anymore over nonsense.

    Tulsi Gabbard and Tucker Carlson plus Donald Trump are now identifying that the USA is run by overseas Globalists. This is weird since Fox News is owned by the world spanning Australian Murdoch family. The TAE coronavirus charts above, the toxic train crash, and the one-year anniversary of the proxy WWIII in Ukraine are all indications that the best interests of the American people are of no more concern to current ruling Davos aristocracy than Bengalis were to the English Empire in WWII. This is true of Canada too, if you go against current Thought, your bank accounts will be seized.

    I had a touch of a Mind Fog the other day. Boy that is disconcerting. I don’t know if it is anxiety, cognitive dissonance, a virus, or old age. I even called the VA medical advice line. That may turn out to have been a mistake by being put on a myriad of lists in US medical computers. Two US Senators out of 100 have admitted that they have long-COVID.

    The simple fact is that after WWI and WWII Empires were destroyed. No difference with the current WWIII. NATO cannot directly intervene in Ukraine. It does not have the manpower. US life expectancy is declining sharply. The U.S. Army failed to meet its 2022 enlistment quota. The West does not have the necessary material. USA manufacturing has been offshored to Asia. Europe’s industry is shutting down due to the lack of cheap Russian natural gas. Even through the fog of war, it is clear that the West is running out of artillery shells, the chief weapon of trench warfare. In a war of attrition, Russia, China and Iran Axis have the manpower, resources and industry to defeat their opponents.

    But the overriding insanity is clear, nuclear weapons will be used as a last gasp by either side to avoid defeat. An Armistice and a DMZ like Korea is the only way out. The USA, UK and the EU will have to live within their means in a multi-polar world or the Fermi Paradox will be proven to be true.

    Without a counter trend of spiritual awakening & awareness, on an exponential basis throughout gen pop, there is *VERY* little hope of terminating the monstrous psychos’/sociopaths’ Great Reset (an already large, ever growing *MOB* poisoning The West), or even decelerating their multi-prong connivance to *SMASH* humanity Politically, Economically, Medically and Technologically.

    That is a fact.

    Without a broad connection to the simple, irrefutable Wisdom provided by The Loving, Healing, Creative Power Of The Infinite (which is the true conscience within *every* living, connecting us *all*) the prevailing compulsion is reduced to, directing *humanity at large*, the capricious cacophony of the pathological EG0ic Voices In The Head

    In America, this sea of caterwauling imbecility, is more or less, only unified by tribal/political party affiliation.

    Thus the rub, as the centrality of Mass Formation Psychosis is then easily controlled, misled, pilfered & dispatched as a threat to The Empire of Lies 😕

    Congressional hearings anyone? Assemblies @ the UN? The Hague? Parliament?!?

    Yeah, that’ll sort it out posthaste!

    Here lil’ baby, have a lollipop, it’ll make the pain of the death-shot all better!

    So go ahead, wax poetic & wane philosophically as the sun sets on modern civilization, have fun at the expense of the poor souls that lacked spiritual fortitude to discern being herded into pens for livestock culling, that’ll show em’ 😕

    We had a window, before 9-11, to address the rampant warmongering, rapacious greed & crimes against humanity, possibly still could, but without the Wisdom that rises above our finite limitations, the brain/EG0 is woefully inadequate to identify friend vs. foe…

    Ask me how I know…go ahead I double dog dare you!

    P.S. There’s been a bit of talk about Forgiveness recently.

    Forgiveness is a spiritual gift, to rid one’s self of the poison of EG0IC judgment, but at a *societal level*, Forgiveness should not be attempted without an honest admission of wrongdoing, a sincere desire to change, followed by a true effort to make amends for damage(s) done.

    Blanket forgiveness of unrepentant EG0IC *monsters*, so they continue *harming* innocent, honest & well-meaning Children of God is *EVIL*!

    It violates The Infinite’s Natural Law, which *EVERYONE* is inherently ware of & irrevocable connected to, to whit those that scoff at this *TRUTH* are at enmity with *LIFE* itself…

    @Oroboros: I was jus joshin’ ya, but that picture Really Is Disturbing.

    @Dr D Rich: I don’t have the load you seem to bear about Tulsi Gabbard. I agree with Dr D that she has to voice her political opinion form a place where most people can gain traction, which is not a factual place in a lot of ways, but she has to choose points which are factual, and still not “forbidden” to explain her position. That is what I see her doing.
    She is a Lt. Colonel who served 2 tours of duty in a medical unit in war zones.

    Look into yourself and find what is making you despise her. She is not at fault.

    We are fighting against an empire without borders which has quite purposefully (with explicitly calculated malice) infiltrated and subverted all of civilizations’ governments and institutions so as to use that trusted authority and power as the means to generate conflicts which it both nurtures and feeds upon by selling meticulously measured and carefully controlled power and authority desired and paid for by both sides of the fight in their struggle to defeat their equally misguided and duped opponents. This arrangement has an optimal size determined by resources, technology and the ability of the domesticated victim population to fight back against the true aggressor (the empire). Surplus population is trimmed off by using the conflicting parts of the population to kill off an appropriate number of the other parts until the desired population size and ability to resist is reached. I call the hat empire the Cabal, and it is quite real and specifically actual.

    As if on cue “…despise her.”
    Strong word, despise, but nauseating is how I describe the feeling to my mom. Tulsi is hot….like Kamala was, is beguiling.

    “She is a Lt. Colonel who served 2 tours of duty in a medical unit in (undeclared) war zones.”
    I get it. She commands the respect of an internalized object state, perhaps.

    What do those things mean to you? LtCol?
    2 tours? War zones? Medical unit?

    I see the likes of Jeremy Boorda, Don Arthur, Sy Hersh, Ritter and Michelle Howard. You know, varying degrees of talent, the hint of heavy lifting, opportunists, taking full credit for other’s actions and none of Boorda’s manifest shame. All Jeremy did was undeservedly place a combat “V” on a Navy Comm, hardly Bronze Star level stuff.

    However you got me. That migrating white/gray forelock is a really bad sign, even on a Borderline.

    For uninformed readers, war zone doesn’t mean ‘combat’ as in ‘days in combat’ something Navy medical units have taken unearned credit.

    Medical unit doesn’t mean doctor, nurse or corpsman since she’s MSC.

    What is it with you Americans. You seem to think that because some over-ambitious woman has helped your armed forces to murder millions of foreigners in illegal wars, all pushed through by neo-cons, the aim being to steal their resources and terrorise the world, that she is some sort of angel. How does that work? Why is killing foreigners a worthy persuit in your eyes while telling lies to voters is forgiveable? You then go and resign your job because the government told you to get an injection. Do you have the hots for this political shit or what? Your logic is bordering on insane.

    1️⃣ John Day, your comment about an old joke reminded me of this song from a Maranci album. I’ll also add: ever wonder why bureaucrats let angry middle-aged women and gay men take over inner city libraries? Or notice how the hullabaloo over “drag queen story hour” works to disaffect both those who disapprove of queens and those who don’t care —discouraging even more folks from visiting? At any rate, yes, the Timeless Comedy will always get a chuckle from the guy who reads and 🙄 from the guys who have to stand there and listen to his shit. 😉

    2️⃣ Veracious Poet, regarding this passage:

    Blanket forgiveness of unrepentant EG0IC *monsters*, so they continue *harming* innocent, honest & well-meaning Children of God is *EVIL*!

    —How would you situate this with the report that Jesus on the crucifix says “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do?” Is it propaganda for the empire, a misreport, a false statement regarding content (i. e., they did know) or an improper request (evil to request forgiveness for people categorically unable to repent)?

    Also, I’ll take up your dare: how do you know there was a window to address the wrong but without Wisdom, a brain/EG0 cannot identify friend or foe?

    3️⃣ D Benton Smith, when you wrote “I call the hat empire the Cabal” was that a Jungian Slip or just an ordinary typo?
