Rene Magritte Memory 1948 • Ukraine Planning Major Attack On New Russian Territories – Bild (RT) • Republicans Demand Cluster Munitions For Ukr
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle March 22 2023]“700 NYPD Riot Cops Mobilized, Steel Barriers Deployed Ahead Of Potential Trump Arrest”
D.C. is the same. Somebody want to tell me what’s going on here? Because downtown Manhattan and D.C. are hotbeds of MAGA Country? Chicago: “This is MAGA Country, Jussie Smallet!!!” Boy there sure are no more likely places to have protests than in the ice-blue, bluest blue, so-blue-they’re-white areas!
1) They actually believe their own talk, which is to say, they are psychotic and have broken from reality itself…and then picked up some guns. 2) They have already hired the character actors to riot for them, which would seem a stretch except we have it on camera no less than four times in the Capital alone. These Blue Antifas live in Manhattan and aren’t going to come in from Harrisburg. Too lazy.
3) They are merely pre-positioning troops. Why? Let’s assume they know the ship is going down, the currency is about to collapse, and the great hordes are going break into Paul Pelosi’s house. Who are they protecting? NY and DC. Who is at risk when the currency collapses? NY and DC.
Huh, that does seem like a more likely explanation. Same one we saw with the “Walls Don’t Work” ring-fenced the entire capital. Who then looked like idiots. Arranged to attack and kill their own citizens. No one came. Just like J6 where everyone I knew already heard, weeks ahead repeated over and over by Alex Jones and Steve Bannon: “It’s a setup. Don’t bother.”
Does this tell you something about the timing here? If they know it will cause riots, then WHY ARREST? Speak to lawyers like a NORMAL legal case. Chris Rock among others said “Whaddya stupid? YOU are launching Trump’s re-election campaign.” Because they’re not stupid. They’re criminals and they’re up to something else. Down at the street, yes, people are psychotic and literally believe (and wrote in articles yesterday) that arresting Trump wouldn’t get him even one more voter. After 5 impeachments. Are you for reals with the “let’s rally the base who’s cooled and drifted away from the vaccinator-in-chief” right now? Of course it would. Yes, Blue-Bloods in DC and Brooklyn DO believe it’s a win-win and arresting-without-charges-is-ultimate-good, but they’re retards and they don’t run anything. Strategists like Podesta do NOT believe that, they are up to something and merely LIE to their Blue base to herd them too and fro like lemmings. “Mueller is Coming.” “RussiaRussiaRussia.”
And THEY, Podesta, Pelosi, are pre-positioning troops around their gated compounds and blaming Trump. You didn’t think the people would sign on to a year of unlimited overtime if I told them I was protecting my DNC golfing buddies did you? No! So I just lied. “When it’s serious, you have to lie.”
Here’s the other one: When Trump is arrested, “All the Republicans will withdraw their money from the banks.” Oh noes! There’ll be a bank run! Darn you White Supremacists!!! It’s all 3,000 of you, fewer than believe in Flat Earth that caused our currency collapse! Not our printing a new $4 Trillion every year to send to Ukraine while our bridges are collapsing at all! Does it have to make sense? No. As stated it’s better if it doesn’t.
“because [Russia] is running out of ammunition.” – John Kirby”
Yes, but only for 14 months in a row. And they have no hypersonics although they just used them and use them any time they like. They’ve run out which is why they drop a shell every SECOND in Bakhmut. Yes, this is all about the LIE, aka the “narrative”. They need to say something, and the first plausible thing that popped into their heads was to say China is the reason we lost in Ukraine, not because we’re fighting a war with no men, no energy, and no industrial base.
Then we’ll what? Attack China which is 15 times harder? We can’t beat a country — as THEY say — the size of Holland. Why not? I’ve never seen the laptop class make an intelligent decision before, why start now?

Florida is the new financial center. Their outlawing CBDC has meaning.
“Ukraine Planning Major Attack on New Russian Territories – Bild (RT) “
The laptop class plans things all the time on their spreadsheets. None of them ever work because they don’t ask anyone if they are functionally possible, or if there are any materials to accomplish them. It’s like giving finger paints to retards to keep them occupied and the only problem comes when they think their drawing of the fire truck is real. Which they do more or less all the time now.
“unfounded fears of ‘escalation’,” Sen. James Risch (R-Idaho), Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Mississippi), Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), and Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Alabama)”
So when we round people up, be sure to include these many Republicans, about half of them. I’d say we should send such munitions to Idaho and Alabama, but they just did in Ohio and no one cared. “10 out of 10 would derail again!” Break that Strike, Joe! Strikebreaking for Environmental Catastrophe is the Democratic way!
“The United States and its minions are trying to turn the world against Russia by sowing hatred against the country”
No, against the people in the greatest display of open racism in 70 years. But racism: that’s who they are. Racism in the morning, evening, and mid day. DiAngelo and Ibram Kendi are core pro-segregationists, and California is repealing Civil Rights Equality. This is considered the HEIGHT of moral form, somehow not racist like when Scott Adams says the same thing. Racism: It’s for Nazis. Keep talking, let us know who you are.
“He is reportedly going to convert a misdemeanor for falsifying financial records into a prosecution of a federal crime.”
It is hard to grasp how non-legal this all is. So Poof! A misdemeanor for paperwork becomes a felony and Poof! A State then prosecutes on behalf of the Federal to lock out the oversight of Congress. On Poof! The front running opposition candidate. Poof! For a crime that’s long past the statute of limitations. Really it’s the CITY of New York telling the ENTIRE country who they can vote for. As I said, only BECAUSE their candidates suck so, so badly, they so rigged the 2016 against Bernie and any/all Progressives, and they can’t win at the ballot box. So NEW YORK ALONE, one man in one city is going to decide for you like The Hunger Games.
I’m sure that won’t come to a bad end or nothin’. Go ahead. Even Upstate will ring-fence NYC, cut off their food, and happily watch them all die. They don’t have any guns, what are they gonna do?
“New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg was HIDING exculpatory evidence from the Grand Jury!”
Grand juries are now meaningless as they ALWAYS hide evidence. Always. There are no rules at all about it. Heck, they now always hide evidence during the ACTUAL trial where there ARE rules. …Because there are “rules” and we don’t follow them. We do the #Opposite.
“nor will we let baseless accusations deter us from fairly applying the law,”
Like against rapists and assaults in your own city? Lighting a police car on fire with the officers inside is merely a ticketing offense now. Very fairly applied, sir.
“that virus escaped…probably somewhere in the September [2019] timeframe…”
At least we’re getting to THAT truth, or rather three: it was September, it was us, and we created it sans pangolin. Now can we get over it being the Mother of all Coincidences ever-evah!? The day Powell had knocked (Europe’s) financial system, and the day before the election they needed to win? “And Then a Miracle Happened.” New miracles every day.
“Likely repolarizes some of the immune cells to a less inflammatory subtype”

Headlines: University of Helsinki Gives Greta Thunberg a Doctorate of Theology” Thereby proving that Climate Change is a religion, not a science. Also that you’re a fool to go to school since if you drop out, you get a degree anyway, cheaper, easier, and better. But we always punish hard work wherever it is found.
For more fun, a list of headlines: https://www.mediafirst.co.uk/blog/our-all-time-favourite-newspaper-headlines/
Including the classic: “Alanis Morissette’s manager had one hand in her pocket” But those modern headlines don’t have the same crisp parameters of the typeset.
“Is reality really like a video game with a bunch of NPC’s inhabiting it?”
I would say yes? How? Because these same people firmly believe WHATEVER they are told, WHATEVER is posted on Twitter, WHATEVER experts say, people believe. That’s why it’s so important to control it. That’s why they run around like chickens looking for these secret people and “dog whistles” from the Right. Which there are none. None of them agree on anything, so CLEARLY there is no source and memo. But they can’t believe that, because THEY are like that, believe and follow anything said with words.
So they clearly ARE the type of people if a dog told them to crack their kid’s head open with a spoon they would do it. We just saw two years of it. And they can’t be convinced others aren’t as slavish as they are. If you DON’T hear the voices in your head, you’re the crazy one. However, they may have just won the Darwin Award for generations.
A prediction about UKtardistan providing deleted uranium rounds for Ukronaziland.
Unknown ‘terrorist groups’ will smuggle uranium powder into UKtardistan and on really windy nights will drive around the English countryside and suburbs, blowing the dust out the back of vehicles, contaminating huge parts of the countryside.
Once that ‘proof of concept’ proves viable, the tactic will spread to Germany and France, contaminating their farmland for generations.
The mysterious ‘terrorist groups’ will continue across all NATO countries until radiation poisoning envelopes the rump continent.
If Ukraine becomes contaminated, Eurotardistan will become even more contaminated.

TVASF“that virus escaped…probably somewhere in the September [2019] timeframe…”
At least we’re getting to THAT truth
“I think it was done probably as part of a biodefense program…..”
” And they can’t be convinced others aren’t as slavish as they are.”
Like I said, UKtardistan will find out the health effects of DU on English soil soon.
Radiation poisoning on top on Vax poisoning will really help the UKtardistan national health services.
That will be a real game changer

My nephew is not the same as before, as I stated. The change is pervasive, paranoid and selfish-survivalist. His life is not over, so the test continues. It is bad to be him.they clearly ARE the type of people if a dog told them to crack their kid’s head open with a spoon they would do it. We just saw two years of it. And they can’t be convinced others aren’t as slavish as they are.
EVERY avenue to appeal to my former employer consisted of:
“Whose orders are you following? PROVE you are following someone’s orders. Be specific.”
I tried explaining that I was following MY OWN orders, that I was the authority I was recognizing and obeying, but it just wouldn’t fly with them.

Oh, so like if you breathe through the same THING for hours and hours, you’re more at risk, you’re saying?

It was called feudalism.
And it sucked. There was the 1%, then the 9% who catered to them, and the rest 90% whose lives were not very enriched (mainly miserable), and generally were lucky to live to 40. And not just western Europe. It was the same in China, Japan, Greece, India, Thailand, Mayans, Aztecs. All of the vaunted ancient civilizations depended on slaves, serfs, conquests and sub-optimal farming to prop up the 1%.“NATO/Ukraine lost a modern artillery war”
I’ve been thinking about that earlier this morning.
NATO, the US, the UK, are really into nexgen warfare, whatever we’re on now 4th, 5th?
Various dirty tricks – spying, hacking, subversion, demoralization, bribery, misdirection, betrayal, introducing engineered microbes, covert use of radiation etc. This is what they think of as war now.
Presumably the “western” war efforts in Ukraine look ineffective because it is only to fix the attention of the Russians on physical, standard, old-gen warfare while they introduce whatever disease, hack, social/ideological plague, sabotage, etc they really want to do.

I listened to the tour de force lecture but being hard of hearing found it very confusing what he was saying. Is it possible to provide a link to this video so I might be able to turn captioning on so I can read the words as he talks?

I don’t think there is a question in anybody’s mind that the money owners will bail themselves out (and award themselves a bonus on top of that) with complete, utter and disdainful disregard for the rights and welfare of the people they will be stealing the money from. That is what psychopaths do. It’s how they became the owners of money in the first place. They will probably always be with us because they are merely slightly more defective versions of us than we are. Same critters but operating on defective notions.
The only meaningful question about it (and the only reason that they are hesitating to continue stealing, but at a HIGHLY VISIBLY INCREASED rate) has to do with the bigger questions of whether or not it will do them any good this time. They wonder not only if they can get away with it, but about whether getting away with it is going to be sufficient to get them out of the jam they are in this time.
They are not at all sure that it will. Otherwise it would already be a done deal, and you would be looking back on the event instead of looking speculatively forward in time and wondering if and when the “money rip off” shoe is going to drop.
The jam they’re in is that the money which they absolutely must have in order to continue being successful psychopathic thieves and rulers of the world, is in very very real danger of becoming worthless . . . and worthless money just ain’t gonna buy all of the blackmail and bribery and hits that they absolutely have to have in order to avoid the gallows and go on ruling the world.
Here’s a clue about whether they will do that or not: What realistically possible choice do the money owners have?
There are only three courses of action possible, which are 1)victory, 2) death, & 3) temporary stay-of-execution (buy some time by forestalling death for an indefinite period . . . . “Forever would be nice”, says Klaus Schwab) Everyone knows that the death part is inevitable, eventually, and that it’s going to be soon (I mean, just look at the fucking mess! Holy shit is it bad!) , BUT . . . . and here is the Sixty-four Quadrillion Dollar Question . . . . how can they possibly get away with such robbery in broad daylight this time?
Nevertheless, we know that they are going to try to rescue the system by stealing your money one way or another. They have to. Their only other option is immediate death and dismemberment (pun intentional). In most cases that word death is meant figuratively but in a significant number of cases it is going to be in the good old fashioned grave packing sense of the word, hastily improvised mob action being what it tends to be.
We also know that the attempted rescue is going to fail because the dollar in its present avatar is absolutely doomed by the self-same accounting practices that created it. The accounting practices which define and create and maintain the current Dollar absolutely decree that quadrillions of “dollars” of debts which are now due can NOT be serviced without (by that very action of paying what is due to be paid according to those accounting practices) triggering an instantaneous domino effect of defaults that erase 99% of all Dollars in the whole world, and consequently drive it’s effective value to virtual zero. Either there will either be no dollars whatsoever, or the dollars themselves will have no value whatsoever. The consequence are effectively the same: lots of formerly solvent people will not be able to use Dollars to buy stuff which they vitally need.
So there’s another thing that we know. The current colossally corrupt accounting practices are over too, because by those standards and practices the Dollar is already gone baby gone. That means that ONLY a new bean-counting system would have any chance of working. We could call it a “Virtual Reality Digital AI Counterfeit Money Substitution System” , or go for the shorthand version they’re hyping there in the cesspool, Central Bank Digital Currency.
Unfortunately for the Bad Guys, that CBDC system is not quite ready for Prime Time. It is simply NOT adequately or operationally capable of handling such an enormous switcheroo overnght, and is therefore bound to fail in spectacular fashion. None of that changes the fact that they’ve got to try it anyway.
So they will roll it out, really soon, and we know that it will catastrophically fail to provide to the money owners the ownerships they must buy with that funny money in order to continue in power. And like the man said, that which can’t continue, stops.
To summarize in brief: CBDC will be rolled out in an effort to shift from the dead-man-walking Dollar but will fail and in its failure will remove dollar-dependent despots (and billions of innocent bystanders too) from power and solvency. This is an old game and the worst of the despots will have seen it coming for a long time, have well stocked Holds and Keeps, and will survive quite nicely. Many of their stupid minions and other unfortunates however will not. Despotic power structures will also experience massive setbacks. Not a great time to invest in expensive WEF Membership or Day Trips to Davos.
Everybody has Dollar exposure, so everybody is going to be injured to at least that extent. The bright side is those who are totally exposed (Bad Guys, mostly) will be made powerless and destroyed by lack of money (and thereby lack of influence and authority over minions, armies, courts, media, etc.) and virtually wiped off the map.
That’s all very interesting to some of us wonks, but since that and the other (larger) events are completely outside of our individual control, the event we need to be aware of and prepared for is the extremely obvious one that we CAN control: how to live day-to-day through the demise of the Dollar and most of what it stood for.
The best concise gem of financial advice about it that I’ve heard recently came from our own esteemed gardener and part time carpenter, John Day. [by the way, those are especially suitable side hustles for a formerly practicing Medical Doctor].
He advised, “Being out of debt and able to weather low income and high bills, while maintaining necessities of life seems like the prudent approach. Do prepare to help friends and family survive, also.”
Sounds good to me.
The numbers of excess deaths do not support the idea that there was a deadly, highly contagious pathogen in the year 2020.
Iatrogenic “care” (bacterial infection and mechanical maiming) and poisoning- (remdesivir here in the States) were called “severe covid19”.
The immune system has proven to be a tough nut to crack. For the eugenicists, despair, poor nutrition, and indoor inactivity combined with environmental toxins were not working as well as they hoped. Gain of function could make ugly bugs, but they went nowhere. The immune systems of the population work individually and together to stop “pandemics”. They realized their best shot (pun!) was direct poisoning by injection. Poison is a weapon, so the DOD was given the honor.
It’s not “gain of function” anymore- it’s destruction of function. Why bother with contagion when you can get folks to submit to being poisoned at the molecular scale- blood disorders and immune function destruction, and voilà! “SADS”, isn’t it?
I want to know why it’s okay to say “lab leak” now.As I say- this is where I am now. The focus on pandemics in history rarely asks the question: what else was going on?
So I suppose all of this information should produce a thoughtful exercise. They have been ‘telling’ us the next pandemic will be bird flu, does anyone here have suggestions on what to stock up on to either treat or get through something like that? Lets get ahead of the curve.

@SaulGoodman: Keep your vitamin-D level up. Consider holding a course of Tamiflu (oseltamivir)75 mg twice per day for 5 days when flu test is (+), to take upon the advice of your prescribing pysiciian.
@JohnDay
Much that goes without speaking would help a lot of people if it were spoken a little more.“It’s a Wonderful Life”, was a wonderful movie about a wonderful lie that became a wonderful meme that has wreaked a wonderful amount of carnage and suffering. What wonderful bullshit.
What got me going on that is the wonderful 2 minute video posted on TAE today by some dude with the Twitter handle “Gurgavin”. The one about the $100 bill circulating through a Dinky Town USA magically erasing debt and making everyone happy without causing harm to a living soul.
For gawds sake! Where’s my horsewhip?
Isn’t it clear to all that the video (and Jimmy Stewarts enchanting movie) are based on a outrageously bald face lie of omission? The KEY to whole semi-circular nonsense is THE PART THEY LEAVE OUT. So I’m guessing that it is not particularly clear to all that the $100 bucks started its life as a 100% bogus piece of counterfeit with no underpinned tangible value whatsoever. Thus the FIRST owner got $100 worth of stuff for no cost at all. Easy money, don’tcha think”. Especially when you can use that dough to bribe a judge and politician to make it all perfectly legal by legislating the legality of paying back the “loan” by charging interest for it.
There is not the merest mention of where the fucking magic $100 got its value from in the first place! No slightest suggestion of who FIRST “owned” the bill, or if they produced anything valuable in exchange for its “value”.
No wonder they call it Babylonian Money Magic. If the victim buys into the lies being babbled on like holy scripture then the magic works.
I was just thinking of a good example of what I just wrote about not leaving simple things unspoken.
From the day I was born until they passed away my parents told me in numerous ways both simple and complex to be a good boy and do the right thing. As things turned out , try as I might (and I did) to follow their advice I just barely survived. There were a large number of close calls.
Can you imagine how bad things would have turned out if they had left all those admonitions unsaid?
So I suppose all of this information should produce a thoughtful exercise. They have been ‘telling’ us the next pandemic will be bird flu, does anyone here have suggestions on what to stock up on to either treat or get through something like that? Lets get ahead of the curve.
The worst flus, such as the 1918 one, appear to be cytokine storm inducing ones.
I did a whole write-up on that on LATOC during the 2009 swine flu scare. I was amazed to actually find it on the Wayback Machine. Tried posting the link, but my post disappeared into the aether. I’ll try again.
I found quite a lot of the LATOC forum was archived and took a little sentimental journey. Amazing how many people and conversations I remembered vividly with a little prompting. VERY interesting to see what people were scared about, predicting, prophesying back in 2008-2010 on the forum I’d tend to give the title of Doomer Central. Really interesting perspective from 2023
I noticed quite a lot of history rhyming as well. For instance, it was discovered there were patents on the swine flu, and of course the big pharma insider-connected Tamiflu was THE remedy everyone should take. NAC and D3 were being discussed then as well.
the old address ===dubya dubya dubya dot doomers dod us/forum2=== is of course deleted from the internet and pulls up nothing, but searching the wayback machine lets you pull up quite a lot of archived posts.
if you search the Wayback Machine for:
===dubya dubya dubya dot doomers dot us/forum2/index.php/topic,45018.0.html===
it should pull up. I hesitate to post 3 pages of possible flu remedies here lol tldr. Hopefully this post doesn’t get eaten.
Anyone pondering doom, their place in the doom o sphere, etc, could benefit from pulling up the archived LATOC forum from 2008 to read what long time veteran doomers of 15 years ago were doing, saying, thinking.
sigh. tried following my own directions to pull up the info on cytokine inducing flu and it doesnt work

“Timid World Order” is up https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/timid-world-order
This review of Chinese President Xi Xinping’s visit to Moscow tries to be somewhat sensational, but there is not a lot to announce. Status quo, with a teaser that in their last remarks together, they agreed that the world would go through changes unseen in 100 years. China’s peace proposal was “pretty good for a start, but Ukraine won’t negotiate”, to paraphrase the Russian response. The US Secretary of State scuttled the idea of peace talks until Russia retreats from the newly-annexed Novorussian oblasts, which are now “Russia” again.
The US/NATO/etc. have fallen short of weakening Russia, and are now being drained by Russia, as China makes diplomatic inroads. The world sees the American/NATO military as a weakened threat, US diplomacy as a thing of the past, and awaits further developments in the $US crisis. It seems likely that more was spoken about the world doing deals in Yuan.Renminbi than was announced. Sergey Glazyev recently decried the lack of consensus, which is holding back the new BRICS trade currency. It seems likely that there will be much reluctance until the $US sustains some mortal wound. I’m guessing…
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/china-gives-washington-advice-ukraine-after-xi-putin-pledge-shape-new-world-orderThis announcement serves to strengthen the $US, as do banking backstop measures recently introduced. (Gold went up $2 on the news. Was somebody expecting a bigger 50 basis points hike?) “QT” is relative. The Fed balance sheet grew by $300 billion in the past week.

The Riyadh – Tehran detente deal could be a major win for not only the Middle East but also larger projects seeking more integration of greater Eurasia. If the deal is implemented, China’s Belt and Road Initiative could become a key component of the economic futures of both Saudi Arabia and Iran. The rapprochement could also pay dividends for the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC) project, which runs from St. Petersburg to Mumbai in India via Azerbaijan (or the Caspian Sea) and Iran and across the Arabian Sea. The “sanction-proof” corridor connects the Indian subcontinent with Russia without needing to go through Europe while simultaneously being 30 percent cheaper and 40 percent shorter than the existing routes...
About those inadequate Iranian ports and railroads…
Saudi Arabia’s Finance Minister Mohammed Al-Jadaan said March 15 that Saudi investments into Iran could happen “very quickly” following the agreement to restore diplomatic ties. He added that he does not see any impediment as long as the terms of agreements are respected by Tehran.
Any Saudi economic dealing with Iran would undercut US sanctions imposed to pressure Tehran, if not violating them outright. With tens of billion of dollars in Iranian assets blocked worldwide, the prospect of Saudi investments could jumpstart the INSTC and help maintain the peace between Riyadh and Tehran...
..India, Turkey, and Egypt are among the countries discussing free trade agreements with the EAEU. And Iran signed one in January. The primary driver for the Iran-EAEU integration is to upgrade Iran’s transport and logistics infrastructure, i.e., the INSTC.
The importance of the INSTC and its link to the Middle Corridor, which enables Russian traffic to head east via Kazakhstan to China, and vice-versa, is growing to include the entire region.Eurasian Integration Including Iran Proceeds Despite US “Maximum Pressure” Campaign
Mish Shedlock presents the absurd idea that an economy based on oil, coal, gas and mineral ores can spend enough money, derived from those things, to replace them completely, with things that don’t even exist as testable concepts yet. The usual solution would be to kill a bunch of people and steal their stuff.
My take has long been that the Climate Change control-narrative is close enough to the reality of depletion of the finite resources which fuel our industrial life-support system. It provides a lie, because our political class can only work with lies. The truth would paralyze them.
That being said, there has not been as much global warming in the last decade as there has been weird weather. The earth goes through worse shifts than what is being forecast from anthropogenic global warming fairly frequently, like multiple years without summers in the pst few hndred years, marked by famine, plague and burning-witches. The more we depend on distant water, high electricity use, distant food, and lots of fuel, the more precarious our lives may soon become.
Don’t Worry, It Will Only Cost $131 Trillion to Address Climate Change
The UN is out with another climate change fearmongering report. Let’s take a look.

This we knew, but I did not know that a lot of the deaths from the 1918-1919 “Spanish” Flu may have been from aspirin overdose. The recommended doses of the new drug (8000 to 31,000 mg per day) are now recognized as overdoses that cause pulmonary edema, hyperventilation and contribute to easy bleeding, which was often found on autopsies. OOOPS! Aspirin was the new good thing back then. A lot of young adults took it.

Is your doctor pressuring you to “get boosted”?
Most doctors probably are. And so are radio ads. An annual COVID shot may become the “new normal,” along with the flu shot.
“Safe and effective” is a constant refrain. But most people probably assume that it is—or else our protective government wouldn’t allow it! Right?
A number of physicians, some former vaccine enthusiasts, are now warning about adverse effects—including sudden death—
and saying “it’s time to stop the shots.” Peter McCullough MD points out that a new study, with better methodology, which does not overcount those who have received COVID-19 vaccine-products, finds that 25% of American adults have never received one of these injections. Uptake has been less than advertised. This fits with studies I have followed.

Large asteroid to fly between Earth and the moon on SaturdayAn asteroid will zoom past Earth this week at such close range that standard telescopes may be able to spot it in the night sky, experts say.
The space rock, dubbed 2023 DZ2 by NASA, is expected to fly between Earth and the moon at speeds exceeding 17,400 miles per hour, according to the agency, which assigned it a rarity score of three as the occurrence only happens roughly once per decade.
The asteroid will pass by Friday and Saturday on a track that scientists suggest is slightly less than half the average distance to the moon from Earth — which is still 174,650 kilometers, or about 108,000 miles — and measures between 140 feet and 310 feet in diameter. For reference, an Olympic-sized swimming pool is about 164 feet long.
Astronomers at the observatory of La Palma in Spain’s Canary Islands discovered 2023 DZ2 in late February of this year and have studied the rock to note its orbit, size and anticipated trajectory ever since.
It will travel closest to Earth in the afternoon on March 25, at around 3:50 p.m. Eastern time, according to the website EarthSky. People in the northern hemisphere will likely have the best opportunity to see the asteroid, which experts believe will be observable through small telescopes, in the evening on Friday, March 24.

Thanks for yesterday’s link to Dima. I had heard of him but had never listened to him on video before. I guess we will soon know if the Ukrainians are going to counter-attack or not. The DU is sure to provoke a response from the Russians because they are going to have to live with the result. Radiating the City of London would be nice!
