    “…empowering individuals with digital vaccination records”

    There is nothing empowering about it. Instead, it is one more thing that is subject to fraud or hacking (like everything digital is) that individuals will need to keep track of. Kind of like a credit score. And heaven forbid should your digital record have an error and you are forced into the bureaucratic hell of trying to correct when all of the powerless technicians say something like, “gee I’d like to help but I can’t change what the computer says.” The whole thing is terrible idea and total BS.

    Qanon shaman ?
    That guy is a total fraud. He actually had a page on a freelance acting website (now removed) saying that he was for hire. In retrospect, the “storm the Capitol” looks like an expertly timed bit of political theater that conveniently redshifted the narrative just in the nick of time. Instead of Americans hearing various Republicans making a case for election shenanigans…instead that conversation was pushed int the middle of the night while the entire world was now abuzz with talk about all of those “crazy” images out of the Capitol.

    Vaccine too dangerous for the over 80 crowd?
    Given that that the virus primarily affects the elderly, then the vaccine is pretty much useless and not worth the risk of side effects.

    Have to correct: Both sides were sending $1400, the balance of the $600 already sent, totalling $2,000. Yes, that’s pathetic. UBI? Income = $2,000 a year?

    The article better illustrates the problems of large numbers. Even a dollar given to 300M adds up fast, while you could give $1M to the 10 top donors and no one would notice. Also at this point their helping has so ruined the nation that half don’t pay taxes. …They have no money. They GET money, in EIC if not direct Welfare. So immediately any tax cut must go to the top half of the nation, right? Except that top 50% doesn’t pay taxes either: they’re barely collecting from 50% > 95%. So the top 5% pay 50%/60% of all taxes. Any tax cut must therefore be to the “rich”.

    …Except that we’ve so destroyed that nation, made it so much like Boliva, that the “rich” here starts at TWO incomes equaling $166,000. Wow. Palatial. Eat the rich. That’s a nurse and a regional manager of Kroger’s in a high-income city.

    Yet the second part is still true: if you DON’T lower taxes, the economy won’t recover and move. …Because (socialism) got us here over 100 years and everything’s broken, and it’s illegal to work. Own a business. Try stuff. Do anything and you’ll be arrested. And now the optics of recovering, of returning to freedom and hard work are horrible.

    “to leave no alternative to the ruling Democratic”

    Yes, when leaving the Democratic Party is illegal and purged on Facebook, (WalkAway) we’ve come a long way, baby.

    “79% of Americans Think The US Is Falling Apart (RT) This totalitarian mindset could be the US’ undoing.”

    No, this is them realizing what has been true all along. For decades. So that everyone sees it and agrees is a GOOD thing. They only thing the adversary has going is LIES. This shows those lies are ending. The adversary can only hide. When he’s exposed everyone rejects him.

    Like I said, now you’ve got Jimmy Dore and the Progressives finally up on it, and uniting again the way the Tea Party and Occupy were set to unite. Against? Liz Cheney, Biden, and the 100% NeoCon murdering, imprisoning, profiting cabinet he’s building.

    “The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) also reportedly released a bulletin warning that “domestic extremists” are planning a nationwide protest to stop Joe Biden from being sworn in”

    Because: FBI, this is a lie. Calling “anyone” for a “statement” would show as on the biggest/only coffeehouse for Trumpers, TheDonald.win, there are ZERO official protests for that day. Zero. Why? Because they know/believe it’s a setup. And the FBI helps prove this accusation for them.

    The FBI who was infiltrating QUAKERS in 2001 for being antiwar and arrest a new innocent man who has to embarrassingly be released each year? The same. You might know them as the ones writing MLK to go kill himself or they’ll release their (illegal unjustified) surveillance of his marital affairs. They guys who ran Whitey Bulger and released guns to the Mexican Zetas. The ones who had a meth head-run lab-for-hire that would send back any forensic results you asked. For decades. Real boy scouts.

    Remember: ZERO protests planned. They will be reported anyway. And violent. That’s interesting: by who then? CNN reporters and their hired AntiFa agitator as were just arrested yesterday?

    “Prosecutors Walk Back Story of Plot to Kill Lawmakers in Capitol Riot (JTN)”

    More boy scouts. Listen: if ANYONE planned to overrun you, they would have done it. You wouldn’t have stopped them. It’s hilarious and embarrassing that you think you could. Okay: 1,000 capitol police vs. 250,000 protestors: Go! It didn’t’ happen because no one but CNN and an AntiFa agitator were interested. Everyone else saw the Capitol Police open the barricades, wave them in, and since it was clearly open, toured the atrium between the velvet ropes. Now depending how you feel, that may be embarrassing in it’s own right, but clearly shows the overall intent: Incredible law-abidingness.

    “Increasing calls to refuse the Pfizer vaccine for people over 80.”

    Apparently someone noticed Science again. Don’t worry: it’ll pass.

    So….Signal is the same as WikiLeaks. Originally set up as a plausible whistleblowing platform since the press had totally discredited themselves as anything but boot-licking CIA flunkies. Wow. So surprised. Difference here is Signal likes the dough and won’t flip the switch on their funders, making it actually private.

    Don’t worry: peer to peer blockchain-ish communication is around the corner. It’s soooooo easy: if they’re not fighting it tooth and nail, it’s a scam. A trap. You know them by their enemies. Snowden…a supposedly talented ex-CIA guy, is FOR it. What does that tell you? Okay, so if he’s still mouthing for the CIA…while sitting in Russia…what’s going on?

    Like Snowden and Musk…and Assange…you know them by their ACTIONS. Because everything said by an adult is a lie.

    ‘In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act’. George Orwell.

    This is your best proof that Musk, Gates, Snowden, Nike, CocaCola, NBA, NFL, are not your revolutionaries. …If you hadn’t noticed that the “Resistance” the “Revolution” is being run by international corporations and corrupt monopoly billionaire oligarchs yet.

    I love the disavowing of Cue-tee pie. Okay, so what you’re saying is, 1) No powerful person anywhere is a pedophile, not in the Catholic church, not in Cory Feldman’s Hollywood, and not the 1980’s Speaker of the House 2) There is no blackmail in politics, especially not after the time where having an affair or being gay has no leverage anymore, AND 3) Epstein doesn’t exist, there are no high-power young-girl and human trafficking with him, Weinstein, Nexum, U Penn, Prince of Britain, etc. You must believe all three, completely.

    NOPE! All our politicians are pure as the driven snow, no one ever uses blackmail there or anywhere, and Epstein and Maxwell are completely innocent and got a raw deal.

    Otherwise…perhaps some of the more inflammatory points of what this particular person was saying might possibly be true?

    The level of people seeing, agreeing, then suddenly not knowing what they just agreed and admit they knew and believed just a second ago is stupefying. There is a two. There is a two. And when you count them they equal what?

    Other thoughts: Whoever is running the 25,000 army standing in D.C. to protect the world’s most popular President-elect, are incredibly well-restrained and very, extremely quiet. Which side do you think this indicates? Dorsey and Pelosi, AOC and Mattis? Or somebody else? Since this is 5x the troops needed to hold F-Stan and Donald.win says there are zero riots planned, what are they there for? To keep AntiFa from being too happy?

    The list contains all contributors who donated more than $200 to President-elect Joe Biden’s Jan. 20 inauguration ceremony and related activities. The committee did not disclose the amount of any of the contributions, but it will have to within 90 days after Inauguration Day, according to FEC guidance.

    • At Least 23 Die After Receiving COVID-19 Vaccine In Norway

    This is one of the risks of getting an unapproved mRNA vaccine injection. (There was not enough data for the FDA to actually approve the vaccine, instead they gave an “emergency use authorization.”)

    The FDA briefing document about this vaccine indicates that people age 75 and over (6.9% of US population, 2019) were underrepresented in the Pfizer trials (only 4.3% of those who received the vaccine). Moreover, most of this “75 and over” group in the trials were only in their 70s (mean age 78, median age 77), when most of this age group (in the US population) are over 80, and about 30% of this age group (in the US population) is 85 or older.

    From the medical authorities in Norway:

    The large studies on Comirnaty [vaccine brand name] (BioNTec/Pfizer) did not include patients with unstable or acute illness – and included few participants over 85 years of age.

    SALT [1st article]

    ‘By contrast, the SALT deduction would mostly benefit wealthy households’

    Wrong! It is no surprise it is being sponsored by California. As wealthy people are fleeing California due to the ever increasing local taxes it means they can write it off and have less reason to move.

    In effect it is a move to support State finances, paid for by the IRS.

    The US ‘war’ on Communism, post WW2, was against socialists, community oriented groups, workers, particularly Unions / any form of org. in that direction, suspected ‘leftist’ sympathisers (hoo! help, Soviet Spies!), and civil rights figures, e. g. Martin Luther King as a communist stooge!

    The Red Scare, some lives destroyed. Ostensibly against political stances. Internal.

    Next, the US war on drugs, which was instigated to target hippies (middle-class, anti-war, peace ’n love) who embraced pot, as well as poorer minority communities (Black..) who trafficked to earn a living.. Plus, to safeguard the monopoly in drug distribution and its revenues to para-state organisms. In addition, to increase the prison population which provides slave labor for many US companies.

    Officially, against ‘bad personal habits’ and ‘illicit, unregulated trade in dangerous substances’ which made all the moralists feel wonderfully puffed up (and cashing in.) Internal.

    Next, the GWOT, after 9/11. This was approx 90% directed outwards (I am not meaning to make light of discrimination and attacks towards Muslims in the US), the point was to bomb, destroy, subjugate the enemies of Israel, feed the MIC, consolidate US imperialism, force allies to obey. External.

    Now, 2021, the enemies are once again Internal, “domestic terrorists” – though who exactly they are is not quite defined yet…:

    Trump followers / voters? Deplorables, low-level workers, dirty ppl? Ppl who have guns? Tractors? Republican voters (that means destroying the Duopoly, it might go there)? White men (as opposed to all other categories)? Putin lovers? ..Ppl who post on / supposed forbidden internet site?

    Imho, will end up in a ‘wrong-think’ including ‘hidden saboteurs’ definition, with nothing concrete to refer to, a bit like the McCarthy Era. There really isn’t anything much to single out and refer to.

    Potted history, sure. The point is, who is to be included on the Victim list?

    SIGNAL

    True or not the idea that Signal is a CIA front makes sense.

    Having an APP where dissidents feel safe means the CIA would receive a steady stream of useful information. It would be a very clever idea.

    Realistically, any American social media apps are either tied to the government or will be destroyed if they become too prominent, like Parler.

    I do not use social media [or own a smart phone] but the only APP I have heard of outside the US is Telegram. I believe they have 500 million users, 50 million very recently. Not a minnow!

    It is weird! It is bankrolled by a Russian oligarch so advertising and income is not needed. They were made unwelcome in Russia and have relocated a few times and are currently in Dubai, but are always ready to move again. Their FAQs are a fascinating read.

    Personally I would not mind using Chinese apps. Even if they could be bothered to spy om me they wouldn’t be the ones smashing down my front door!

    I keep on thinking of horror films, like Rosemary’s Baby, where at the end they realise that no-one is on their side. Real life is beginning to feel like that.

    Biden Exploits His Capitol Gains

    From outside the melee, it is easy to define the serious issues that should dominate political debate in the United States. But instead of that, we hear a torrential exchange of insults. The establishment elite cannot stoop to exchange viewpoints with populists denounced as deplorable, racist, misogynist, white supremacist, fascist and now even “terrorist.”

    The populists’ unfocused denunciation of the elite describes Wall Street Democrats as “socialists” and veers off into accusations of genocidal vaccination campaigns, occult pedophile rites and Satanism. Instead of anything resembling a clear political division, America is increasingly split by blind, burning mutual hatred.

    What American political life needs is not more censorship, but the self-censorship of reason. That is very far away.

    With all the libertarian alt-right diatribes on TAE, here is some left analysis of what happened with the Trump mob. Mike Davis from England has this view of what it all means for the Republican party. Others are suggesting that the Centrist Republicans can now make an alliance with the Democratic party, especially since Bernie Sanders has been totally sidelined.

    This may allow for all the Dem hawks to move to their usual place at the right of center.
    Just a look at Biden appointees shows it’s going to be wars as usual.

    https://newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/riot-on-the-hill

    But something unexpectedly profound happened: a deus ex machina that lifted the curse of Trump from the careers of conservative war hawks and right-wing young lions, whose ambitions until yesterday had been fettered by the presidential cult. Today was the signal for a long-awaited prison break. The word ‘surreal’ has been thrown around a lot, but it accurately characterizes last night’s bipartisan orgy, with half of the Senate election-denialists channeling Biden’s call for a ‘return to decency’ and vomiting up vast amounts of noxious piety.

    Let me be clear: the Republican Party has just undergone an irreparable split. By the White House’s Fuhrerprinzip standards, Pence, Tom Cotton, Chuck Grassley, Mike Lee, Ben Sasse, Jim Lankford even Kelly Loeffler are now traitors beyond the pale. This ironically enables them to become viable presidential contenders in a still far-right but post-Trump party. Since the election and behind the scenes, big business and many mega-Republican donors have been burning their bridges to the White House, most sensationally in the case of that uber-Republican institution, the National Association of Manufacturers, which yesterday called for Pence to use the 25th Amendment to depose Trump. Of course, they were happy enough in the first three years of the regime with the colossal tax cuts, comprehensive rollbacks of environmental and labor regulation, and a meth-fed stock-market. But the last year has brought the unavoidable recognition that the White House was incapable of managing major national crises or ensuring basic economic and political stability.

    The goal is a realignment of power within the Party with more traditional capitalist interest groups like NAM and the Business Roundtable as well as with the Koch family, long uncomfortable with Trump. There should be no illusion that ‘moderate Republicans’ have suddenly been raised from the grave; the emerging project will preserve the core alliance between Christian evangelicals and economic conservatives and presumably defend most of the Trump-era legislation. Institutionally, Senate Republicans, with a strong roster of young talents, will rule the post-Trump camp and, via vicious darwinian competition – above all, the battle to replace McConnell – bring about a generational succession, probably before the Democrats’ octogenarian oligarchy has left the scene. (The major internal battle on the post-Trump side in the next few years will probably center on foreign policy and the new cold war with China.)

    That’s one side of the split. The other is more dramatic: the True Trumpists have become a de facto third party, bunkered down heavily in the House of Representatives. As Trump embalms himself in bitter revenge fantasies, reconciliation between the two camps will probably become impossible, although individual defections may occur.

    Noirette: “Now, 2021, the enemies are once again Internal, “domestic terrorists” – though who exactly they are is not quite defined yet…”

    “The FBI divides their counterterrorism priorities into four distinct categories: racially motivated violent extremism, anti-government/anti-authority extremism, animal rights/environmental extremism, and single-issue extremism. This distinction is important in understanding everything from choice of targets to which methods or techniques are used by those who chose to turn their beliefs into violent acts.”

    Anti-government extremism is a loose-knit movement of right-wing groups including private paramilitary “militias,” Three Percenters, Oath Keepers, sovereign citizens, tax protesters, and “constitutional sheriffs.” It is often referred to as the Patriot Movement, but that label has faded in recent months as different factions have moved towards libertarian anarchy while other subgroups have adopted fascist themes and beliefs.

    Over the years, sovereign citizen schemes have taken root in some left-wing groups including the Moorish Science Temple and prepper communities, and in the last two months, there has been a noticeable rise in left-wing private paramilitary groups…

    In the past, the Ruby Ridge and Waco standoffs were the catalysts that drove Timothy McVeigh to terrorism. Such catalysts today could include heavy handed use of the American military on civilians/protesters, a street war that turned lethal, or the government using excessive force against what turned out to be an imaginary or exaggerated enemy. Anti-government extremists are aware that their plans for a revolution or “Civil War 2” require that catalyst…

    Most Trump supporters are aware of this and don’t trust the Republican party or Mitch. Mitch is their enemy # 1!

    Thus the term RINO (Republican in name only)! = Uniparty

    Dems have DINO! (Democrat in America only)! = Uniparty

    Now you know why most Americans voters are disillusioned! No matter who they vote for they always get the uniparty!

    That’s certainly part of the problem; but only a part…
    The whole voting process is tightly controlled by big money. And they will not allow any third party’s in anything but local elections.
    It is so corrupt that there is effectively no free and fair democratic process…none, zip, zilch, nada…
    The unipartly is an illusion…

    If nothing changes, nothing changes.

    It was interesting participating on TAE, been visiting since it was linked on ZH, and broke silence to post here, I guess for no other reason than to vent…

    Wasted way too much time trying to contribute to political/economic/news forums from 1996 through 2016, and as always it’s pointless.

    All the best!

    A reminder to take note that India, not afraid of Trump, or taking off label drugs, has used Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine (+ zinc and Vitamin D) with great affect after September, greatly outstripping Covid-19 case reduction compared to the United States.

    Doc R, thx for the details. The question is really how far will the pre-crime analysis (targetting or … someone because of some trip-thresholds metrics, like having previous convictions, having been drunk and disorderly, behind on taxes, etc.) or wrong-think (independent of behaviour, pol. bent, sites visited, beliefs, adherence to ‘movements’ etc.) stretch, be used.
