Long day of work yesterday, but I have to revise my initial data on the guy with horns before catching up.

Do you realize now what you have done? US gets the kind of ‘democracy’ it championed overseas
Nebojsa Malic is a Serbian-American journalist, blogger and translator, who wrote a regular column for Antiwar.com from 2000 to 2015, and is now senior writer at RT. Russia Alert (Hey, Russia survived something like this after a decade at death’s door.)
Way back in 2004, the Guardian wrote approvingly about how the US has created a “slick” operation of “engineering democracy through the ballot box and civil disobedience,” developing since Belgrade a “template for winning other people’s elections.”
Now the same mainstream media that slavishly followed the State Department line in denouncing elections elsewhere as “rigged” and color revolutions as spontaneous democracy are clutching their pearls when Americans who believe their election was stolen take to the streets and storm their Capitol.

Trump spoke out against violence and called on the people to leave peacefully only to get censored by the blue tick monopoly:
Protesters, who were seen fighting with officers both inside the building and outside, were described as “special people” by President Donald Trump, who responded to calls to condemn the violence.
In a video address shared on Twitter, he urged his supporters to “go home” but repeated an unsubstantiated claim that the election was “stolen”.
He said: “I know your pain, I know you’re hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us, it was a landslide election and everyone knows it especially the other side.
”But you have to go home now, we have to have peace, we have to have law and order, we have to respect our great people in law and order. We don’t want anybody hurt.”
He described it as a “tough period of time”, and repeated false claims that the November’s election was “fraudulent”.
He ended the video message by calling the protesters “very special”, adding: “We can’t play into the hands of these people.
“We have to have peace. So go home. We love you. You’re very special.”
Twitter disabled the video from being liked or retweeted “due to a risk of violence”. It was later deleted.
Explain to me how the above quotes are risking violence or a breach of ‘civic integrity’?
What, please, is that?

America is now divided into two camps.
Today I have posted the view, a quick skim, of the underdog side, the side you do not see in the mass media.
Who gains by dividing this country against itself? I don’t have a pat answer. I don’t know exactly what interests are invested where.
It’s secret.
It is not in the interests of Americans to be divided this way through manipulation of images and narratives, through lies.
The lockdowns have hobbled people, isolated them from other humans, so that communications are mostly through media channels, “guided” by artificial intelligence minders.

President Trump will remain in the White House, according to Gen. Michael Flynn.
“My big message is that the truth is going to come out and that Donald Trump will continue to be the president of the United States for the next four years,” he said in an interview with Alex Jones.
“There’s no doubt in my mind. When I’m asked on a scale of 1 to 10 – what’s the scale that you would put Trump will be the next president – I say 10, without a doubt.”
“That is the truth. Everybody in this country, everybody in this world knows that this election on the 3rd of November was a total rip-off,” Flynn added. “It was a fraudulent election, we have had foreign interference from multiple countries that I can rattle off here if you want to get into that.”
Accordingly, Flynn confirmed previous reports that the election was done under a state of national emergency due to reports of foreign actors penetrating the election system, particularly the Chinese.
“We have clear evidence of foreign interference, which is [what] the president’s executive order describes, the executive order from 2018,” he continued, referring to Executive Order 13848. “He reinstituted it in 2019 and reinstituted again in 2020, so we are essentially in a national emergency that the president has already declared.”
“He just has to decide whether to execute some of those procedures that are well within his authority.”

ParticipantMichael Snyder makes the case that protesters were set up to look bad in media presentations.:
Like most Americans, I was absolutely horrified by the violence that I watched at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday. But I had a difficult time trying to understand what I was witnessing. Trump supporters are almost always extremely peaceful, but many of those that were storming the Capitol were being very violent. That didn’t make sense to me. And how in the world did protesters get into the U.S. Capitol in the first place?
Well, it turns out that police actually opened up the barricades that were surrounding the U.S. Capitol and purposely allowed protesters to storm the building. You can see this on video right here…
I have never seen anything like that in my entire life.
And once they were inside the building, they were herded toward particular areas. For example, you can watch one “guard” actually lead protesters up several flights of stairs right here…
Either the U.S. Congress has the worst security personnel that any of us have ever seen, or this was allowed to happen on purpose.
And there are multiple reports that Antifa activists were brought in by bus. In fact, one patriot actually recorded video of the Antifa buses that were brought into the heart of Washington D.C. with an escort…John Day

14 year USAF veteran Ashli Babbit’s last moments and words. The video with the young man who caught her is not long, 2 minutes.
Listen to his sentiments.
We stormed into the chambers inside, and there was a young lady who rushed to the windows. A number of police and secret service were saying ‘get back, get down, get out of the way’. She didn’t heed the call, and as we raced up to grab people and pull them back, they shot her in the neck, and she fell back on me. She started saying, ‘it’s fine, it’s cool,’ and then she started moving weird, and blood was coming out of her mouth and neck and nose. I don’t know if she’s alive or dead any more… Riot police came in, and started ushering us out with sticks…BREAKING: Videos Reportedly Show DC Police Shoot Unarmed, Peaceful Female Trump Supporter In Neck
This is the video of a handgun shooting 35 year old Ashli in the neck as she tries to jump a barrier then falls onto her back, mortally wounded.
The circumstances have now become much clearer with video of the shooter emerging overnight. There were police behind her – indicating they did not consider her an immediate lethal threat – at the moment she attempted to breach a barricade inside the capitol building.
Despite the security officers behind her being potentially in the line of fire, Babbitt was still shot by a Capitol police officer as she attempted to jump over a physical barrier, new video shows.

Participant@Geppetto: This RNA virus and RNA vaccine do not need to alter the cellular DNA to make RNA and proteins.
DNA is like central bank gold, and RNA is like paper money that flows as currency to get things done.
Virus, or mRNA gets into a target cell, and it has to get all the way into the nucleus, which is actually fancy, a second line of defense, and ivermectin may inhibit the transfer of viral RNA into the nucleus. In the nucleus it engages the reproduction machinery to make RNA and speccific proteins, which ae]re extruded from the nucleus, to be assembled, then further extruded from the cell as either complete viruses, or viral proteins to stimulate an antibody response.
There are also DNA vaccines, but these ones ain’t them.John Day

SARS-CoV-2 viral variant B-117 seems to be 50 to 70% more transmissible.

Problems arise in administering vaccine with short shelf life at -30 degrees to millions of people, who are rightfully uncertain that it’s “safe”.
Antibody Dependent Enhancement (of the virus, not you) and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and therapies
One potential hurdle for antibody-based vaccines and therapeutics is the risk of exacerbating COVID-19 severity via antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). ADE can increase the severity of multiple viral infections, including other respiratory viruses such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)9,10 and measles11,12. ADE in respiratory infections is included in a broader category named enhanced respiratory disease (ERD), which also includes non-antibody-based mechanisms such as cytokine cascades and cell-mediated immunopathology (Box 1). ADE caused by enhanced viral replication has been observed for other viruses that infect macrophages, including dengue virus13,14 and feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV)15. Furthermore, ADE and ERD has been reported for SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV both in vitro and in vivo. The extent to which ADE contributes to COVID-19 immunopathology is being actively investigated.

Censorship Kills, Marilyn Singleton MD
For months we’ve heard that COVID is not like the flu. It is a different animal. It may leave the infected person with long term aftereffects. Given the potential problems, the FDA, CDC, NIH, HHS and the alphabet health agencies should be advocating for early pharmacological treatment and prevention. Instead, we are told to wash our hands, wear masks—which may or may not help—and to stay away from one another. Indeed, as California’s Health and Human Services Secretary admitted, the state’s order banning outdoor dining and closing playgrounds was “not a comment on the relative safety” of the activity but a tactic for keeping people at home.
Stay home — although 66 percent of new coronavirus hospitalizations in New York were in people who had not routinely left their homes. Stay inside — although there are studies echoing observations during the 1918 flu pandemic finding that people who went outside had better outcomes. A recent Spanish study showed that 80 percent of patients with COVID had low levels of vitamin D. Another study found that people with adequate vitamin D levels had a 51 percent lower risk of dying from COVID. People at risk for vitamin D deficiency include those who have dark skin, are elderly or overweight, or stay indoors. Interestingly, these groups are particularly hit hard by COVID.
Simply put, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Any risk of taking proper doses of vitamins and minerals is dwarfed by the risks associated with COVID. Useful vitamins and minerals include zinc (inhibits viral replication), vitamin D3 and vitamin C, and quercetin (to help drive zinc into the cells). Additionally, melatonin, a hormone found naturally in the body that regulates our sleep cycle, also has significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and mitochondrial protective effects.Huh, Lockdowns are designed to last “forever” ? , Brandon Smith
Gotta keep that fear train chugging forward on the track to the “Great Reset”, right?
For the people that actually believe that the covid crisis will end after mass vaccinations, I’m sorry to say, but you have been duped. Every single element of the establishment response and every public statement they make indicates that they plan to violate your civil liberties for a long time to come. Those promises of relief right around the corner? All lies. The claim that if you go along to get along everything will go back to normal? It’s a con. It is hollow rhetoric designed to make you shut up and submit to medical tyranny for just long enough that it becomes irreversible.
I suspect they are hoping they can condition the public over the next few years to simply adapt to the controls until we forget what life was like before the pandemic and the reset. It seems, however, that the globalist reset plan is not going very well.

https://www.rt.com/russia/511116-world-first-covid19-antidote/More excellent thoughtfulness. Samo Burja assesses how intellectual authority works:
One might think professionalization means a strict improvement in the epistemic foundations of a field. This isn’t the case. Rather, professionalization is a way to reduce variance. Professionalization is essentially the creation of set procedures, norms, and social roles to govern a given area of knowledge, and while this eliminates unserious crackpottery, it also crowds out the “unorthodox” and often stochastic experimentation employed by all exceptional live players as they new drive fields forward—in short, reducing variants cuts off both tails of the skills distribution. While professionalization does eliminate some malpractice, for pre-paradigmatic fields it can be harmful, since researchers must pursue hypotheses that can’t be justified to bureaucrats. If the hypothesis could be justified to bureaucrats the field would already be mature. A premature professionalization closes many doors of inquiry.We know why Seth Rich was murdered on the way home from a DNC office party. (Hi Hillary!)

Participant@Madamski: Thanks for all that, sister. My ongoing considerations, as I might well live another 30 (I’d be 92) or even more years, and don’t want to be embarrassed by having not set my lines of defense for the family back deeply enough.
@ Phoenix voice: The Matthew Ehret pieces in this post, toward the end go into US origins of COVID

Testing of saved samples of sewage in the US and of stored blood samples is a thing. All results are classified and must be reported only to the federal task force, all proceedings of which (CDC and DIA) are classified.
I am free to tell you that a patient of mine, in Austin, nearly died in November-December 2019 in the local teaching hospital, of multi-organ ailure, including lungs, heart and kidneys. The only thing they ever found on testing was nothing, a common-cold, coronavirus. Somehow he lived. By the time I got his discharge records coronavirus WAS a thing (January 2020).

ParticipantWe now know that SARS-CoV-2 virus was spreading in the US from June 2019. The military-industrial-security-propaganda-complex had to control the rise of cases, to make it fit their curves and narrative. This was done by grossly limiting the number of available tests and only testing the sickest people.
“The Centers for Disease Control utterly botched the initial testing regime, sending out bogus tests to state and local health departments and taking a month and a half to do what the Thai government achieved in one day. The Food and Drug Administration helped turn the coronavirus from a deadly peril into a national catastrophe.
Long after foreign nations had been ravaged and many cases had been detected in America, the FDA continued blocking private testing. The FDA continued forcing the nation’s most innovative firms to submit to its command-and-control approach, notwithstanding the pandemic.”

Participant@My Parents Said Know: Yep, cacti grow fine in Texas. Lots of people have xerascaped yards.
You can eat “nopales”, certain cactus “leaves” https://www.mexicoinmykitchen.com/nopales-easy-mexican-recipe/
I have eaten them out of politeness, but I don’t seek them out.
Citrus trees hybridize pretty wildly, so you don’t really know what seedlings will grow, until they do.

ParticipantThanks Geppetto.
I’ve now caught up on all the comments and posts since Christmas.
Cold and rain hit after I posted the blog, just after I got to work on the bike.
Wishing us all well.
Grow vegetables!John Day
ParticipantThanks kindred Geppetto.
Gotta’ go catch up an all the days missed now.John Day

We are now into the “second wave” of COVID.
In (sunny) Texas hospitalized cases have just exceeded their previous mid July peak.
There is controversy about the term “second wave”. It may mean different things to different people.
Why would there be an interruption in the spread of contagious illness through a population?
There are masks and social distancing, which make it somewhat harder for virus to jump from host to host.
There are also host-resistance factors.
Being susceptible to a bad outcome, if infected, is different from being more or less susceptible to initial infection.
We have repeatedly been shown that adequate levels of vitamin-D in a person reduce risk of infection when exposed (nasopharyngeal innate-immunity is supported.) and we have repeatedly seen that the lowest vitamin-D levels are closely correlated with worst hospital outcomes.
Giving high-dose vitamin-D in a Spanish study was a very effective treatment intervention for hospitalized patients.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7456194/
Vitamin-D levels mostly come from sunshine entering the skin surface and creating active vitamin D. Darker skin , weaker sun, and less skin exposure to the sun all decrease vitamin-D levels. Vitamin-D builds and falls slowly in the body, over months, so the peak levels lag peak sun by about 3 months. Also, people may avoid August sun, and go back out in September. The curves will be different in Hawaii and New York.
It is clear that dark skinned people in northern climes get hit the hardest, but that dark skinned people in Africa are faring tremendously better.
I have not seen a published comparison of vitamin-D levels by population, area and season, but they can be reasoned out.
Do support your local immune system this winter, please! Vitamin-D 5000 units per day is a good dose for adults, and can be doubled for the first month or 2 to get blood levels up into the mid normal range.Jeremy in the UK sent this:
Hospital Crisis Results From Lack of At-Home Treatment for COVID-19Hospital Crisis Results From Lack of At-Home Treatment for COVID-19
Here is an August interview with Professor Thomas Borody, regarding ivermectin, zinc, doxycycline treatment for COVID-19, which is curative.
Professor Borody developed the cure for peptic ulcer disease, caused by H. pylori infection. People stopped dying of bleeding ulcers, but adoption was slow, since ordinary generic medicines could be used. There was no fortune to be made.
https://covexit.com/we-know-its-curable-its-easier-than-treating-the-flu-professor-thomas-borody/Ziverdo costs $2 in India. It’s zinc, ivermectin and doxycycline at fixed doses. People seem to have a very hard time getting it to Europe or the US when seeking to order it online.
Here is the COVID-19 Essentials site that Jeremy sent.Treating physicians contribute to and update this site as a public service.
Here is Dr Paul Marik’s treatment protocol. Pages 9-11 are most relevant to outpatients, but the prophylaxis section following next is also useful.
The first few pages give a good description of what pathologic processes are occurring at what stages of infection, and what interventions are appropriate at each stage. This is the best overall reference, and includes many, many optional additions for consideration.

ParticipantLots of health care workers who have already had COVID (like my MD daughter) are getting vaccinated, no questions asked of anybody, as to whether this makes sense.
It’s a big, advertised rollout, mainly driven by PR. All the professional communication I get about it is sales pitches to reassure patients, as if that’s absolutely the right thing to do.
No evidence… There is so little evidence, and it is equivocal.John Day
Participant@My Parents Said Know:
You asked about citrus seedlings. Yes, they are unpredictable. My seeds are from an orange tree from an orange seed, but there is a tangerine tree from seed right next to it, and they can cross pollinate, By the time the seedlings get to be a foot and a half or so, they start making spikes. Spiky citrus seems to be more cold tolerant, in general. It may be a long time before I see what fruit they make. Grafts onto rootstock think they are already a grown-up tree, so they make fruit much sooner,I’ve been away/busy a few days yet again.
