Conquest of Mexico was a War of Liberation with Advanced Tech Help From a Foreign Ally

 Narrative Shift:   Some 30,000 Mesoamericans liberated Mexico with help from "technologically advanced allies from overseas"(Cortez with about 700 Spaniards).  They "overthrew a bloody death cult (The Aztecs) that had "subjugated its neighbors and rounded up mass civilian prisoners for execution". 

A mandate resembles a law but isn't a law.

Information sourced here:

"First, mandates need to be issued by a government agency or an elected official.. Secondly, they will often need a reason to introduce the mandate"

The mandate becomes:

"The authority given to an elected group of people, such as a government, to perform an action or govern a country” and it is "legally enforceable."

"Mandates are often used to deal with emergency situations. They are known for being very fast to implement. This makes them the perfect way to address rapidly changing situations."

"There are a few conditions in which a mandate can be deemed invalid. These will be when:
They fall outside the government’s agency under the legislation. The law will state clearly what things the agencies can and can’t make laws about. For example, the health department can make decisions about a pandemic. But a terrorist attack will be outside of their purview.
The mandate can’t overrule any existing state or federal laws. These laws can also be changed by a legislature.
The mandate can’t override the Constitution. All laws and mandates will need to follow the rules established in the Constitution."

In British Columbia, the mask mandate and now the vaccine passport would have come under the agency of the Ministry of Health but the emergency situation undergirding the mandate has fomrally expired.    BC cancelled the state of health emergency June 30th.   Elements of the Canadian constitution are being overruled.

Almost a Majority of Americans Strongly Disapprove of Biden (Rasmussen daily poll).

This is something new.   We all know that mild disapproval, a little wrinkle of the nose is the politician's lot.  This widespread intense dislike of Biden's presidency is something new.  Rasmussen keeps a rolling 3-day poll of 1500, calling 500 people every day to chart these numbers.  The folk who are really pleased with Joe Biden's presidency are withering away, their numbers eroding, subsiding without apparent let.

NIH Gives Stealth Recognition to Ivermectin Having Possible Value Treating Covid-19.

From NIH table updated July 8 2021.
Looks to me like stealth rehabilitation of Ivermectin as a tool in treatment of early SARS-CoV-2 infections.

More supply chain insight: UPDATE

 LA and Long Beach ports are backed up but they are actually handling record levels of throughput.  Mauldin's newsletter has some key charts.   Besides the policy issues messing with supply chains, there is an enormous factor called demand.   The demand is also a policy issue: 

 "The government sent trillions of dollars of “hot money” directly to consumers and/or businesses. Restaurants, hotels, and airlines were generally off the market, vacations were crimped, so people bought “stuff.” Thus, those ships off the shores of California contain extra goods that both manufacturers and shippers hadn’t planned for."

From Mauldin's letter (free to subscribe) is this chart showing throughput way up and a second chart showing prices up sharply for goods as money is being spent on goods more than services.  Goods fill containers.

UK Data show the vaccinated are just as likely to die as the unvaccinated. Prove me wrong. UPDATE: My son proves me mostly wrong UPDATE TWO: The bigger picture looks bad UPDATE THREE: Now they are hiding their own data.

 The UK government document for the week just ended shows that in absolute numbers almost six times more (Correction:  80+ aged )vaccinated people died from Covid-19 complications than unvaccinated did.  Remember, these are people who were vaccinated so they'd be immune, or so we believed at first.  That's a shocker. (No correction.  Still a shocker.)

Less shocking are the rates per 100,000.  The chart on page 15 shows that the vaccinated did much better than the unvaccinated and most of the vaccinated deaths occur within one month of the jab( Correction:  within one month of testing positive, not shocking at all.) going up just a little by the end of the secondmonth (Page 16 chart).  This matches reports elsewhere that the spike protein does most of its damage early on and gradually disappears from the system.  (Correction: the chart doesn't address spike protein since it addresses the generic "tested positive" rather than "got the jab".)

The BBC says last week that 86% of the over 12 population is double or single vaccinated.  Do a little math.  14% of the over 12 population is therefore unvaccinated.  Total deaths linked to Covid-19 last week were 1521(for those (correction:  80 and over )who died within a month of testing positive for Covid-19).  14% of that gives 212 on the assumption that vaccinated and unvaccinated were equally likely to die.  That's the result I get.  The reported number in this chart is 198.  This implies to me that the vaccinated are just as likely to die as the unvaccinated when they take ill. How does that fit with the two right hand columns that show rates per 100,000 are multiple times higher for the unvaccinated? You tell me.  (Correcting to include all age cohorts I get 730 unvaccinated deaths and 2395 vaccinated or partially vaccinated deaths. Redoing the math, 23% of the deaths were in the unvaccinated group, a little higher than the 14% they represent.)

The good news if my math is wrong is that the protected people (who aren't really protected)  are dying at less than one third the rate of the unvaccinated who also catch Covid-19. (Correction: I misinterpreted the chart). The bad news for the unvaccinated is that the risk of death if they catch Covid-19 in late middle age is quite a bit higher than the risk for the vaccinated, even though almost everyone in either group will survive.   (Correction?   I don't think so)

UPDATE:  My son proves me wrong.  (Each of his counter point has weak spots)

"Regarding your analysis:

• You mistook the bottom line in Table 4 as the sum. It is the 80+ row.
• The final columns show unvaccinated people are roughly 3-5 times more likely to die. Your math ignores cohort populations. Immediately preceding the tables was an explicit warning "there is a high risk of misinterpretation" for this reason.
  
• More vaccinated people dying is consistent and expected because most people are now vaccinated, vaccines do not give full immunity and protection wanes after 6 months. One analysis shows Pfizer dropping from 88% to 74% efficacy after 6 months. The Office for National Statistics estimated in August that 1% of infected people at that time were already second infections.
  
• The second chart doesn't provide any evidence about spike proteins. Most people taken into emergency care died in the first 28 days after infection NOT injection. A few stragglers survived into the next month. The columns that do include injection timing information require population context to interpret per above."

UPDATE TWO:

This link analyses the same UK health information but charts it for all weeks this year to the end of July.  Getting this right is life and death.   The vaccinated are not safe and the unvaccinated seem headed towards better outcomes than the vaccinated.   (Two of the charts at the link posted here.)

UPDATE THREE.    The data in the first chart is now being hidden!!!!!   As documented at Dailysceptic.org

UPDATE FOUR:   The problems keep piling up.  The UK unvaccinated are doing pretty well as health authorities struggle to make stats match their message.

It may be too late to join the unvaccinated Covid-19 control group but please spare your children. Pathologist: The spike protein in the vax IS the toxin.

Vaccinated people have damaged tissue.  That's vaccinated people, not only people who caught the Covid-19 flu..     A senior pathologist with a side specialty in immunology gave a talk in August using his own microscope slides.  Dr Ryan Cole examines tissue from hospitalized people and dead people for a living.  He finds multi-tissue inflammations in vaccinated people including lungs, heart membrane, liver and more.   He's worried.   I am too.    Some of the spike protein enters the blood and circulates beyond the deltoid muscle despite intial claims.  Wherever it landed in test animals, the spike itself induced the same secondary pathologies that the whole virus produced.  The spike isn't causing Covid-19 but it's causing the same secondary troubles.  Most people don't die of Covid-19 and most people don't die of secondary induced pathologies.   These secondary diseases (watch for names ending in "itis") are inflammations responding to the foreign spike protein which circulates for about two weeks after the jab.  Our white blood cells are busy attacking us at those sites of inflammation.  These injection-induced auto-immune diseases will be killing some of us and weakening some more.

Doctor Cole has been a pathologist for 17 years and is in the news for "spreading misinformation", a charge which should be a badge of honor these days.   Are organs from vaccinated people generally inflamed right after vaccination are are they not?  That should be the question.    Wherever blood circulates including lungs and brain you have some exposure to the introduced spike protein.

The spike triggers the body to build defences against Covid-19 but the spike itself is a disease-causing toxin.   The injections are an experiment on the whole human race.  In the case of damaged heart cells, these are replaced by scar tissue not new healthy heart cells.   How can we vaccinate the lowest risk group of all, the children, with an experimental gene snippet that will leave some of them at risk for the rest of their life?

"Covid-19" in old Internet Stories is NOT a Proof of Conspiracy. Prove it yourself.

I set search to only the years 2014 to 2019 with the search term "Covid-19".  See the example below.
Then prove to yourself the dates are wrong.  Open a couple stories that have a local angle you can verify.  The first one I opened was dated March 15 2015 and was a schedule for the nose swab clinic last year in town.

You'll find a ton of false-date Covid-19 stories on the internet.   The first  use of the name "Covid-19" was by WHO in a February 11 2020 press release.    I'm betting the back-dated stories (which are clearly 2020 and 2021 stories when opened) are pastes and over-writes to documents first created in an earlier year.

NOT PROOF OF A CONSPIRACY TO RELEASE A KILLER TO SHINK WORLD POPULATION.

OBIT: Colin Powell. "A serious man who found himself allied with unserious people" (Schlichter)

Kurt Schlichter gives perspective on Colin Powell.   Kurt served under him at one time and respected Powell as a military general who was competent and performed adequately but never had to meet a payroll or worry how to pay the rent.

Like many luminaries of the Boomer establishment, Powell provided a certain gravity and dignity to an elite rapidly filling up with young, woke, unaccomplished hacks. Though he was firmly on the side of the woke pronoun people by the end, he was not one of them. He picked up a rifle; they picked a gender. Powell was a serious man who found himself allied with unserious people.

A Chinese De Toqueville Sees America

 Wang Huning is the idea man behind the harsh "Common Prosperity" campaign in China but he has a lot to say about modern America which he toured peripatetically visiting 30 cities and 20 universities  in 1989.  He's sort of a modern day Alexis De Toqueville and published his memoir in 1991 as "America Against America".    He's right behind Emperor Xi but avoids the headlines.

A key observation from the linked article:  "Americans are faced with intricate social and cultural problems but tend of think of them as scientific and technological problems".

"In (America Against AMerica), he marvels at homeless encampments in the streets of Washington DC, out-of-control drug crime in poor black neighborhoods in New York and San Francisco, and corporations that seemed to have fused themselves to and taken over responsibilities of government. Eventually, he concludes that America faces an “unstoppable undercurrent of crisis” produced by its societal contradictions, including between rich and poor, white and black, democratic and oligarchic power, egalitarianism and class privilege, individual rights and collective responsibilities, cultural traditions and the solvent of liquid modernity.

But while Americans can, he says, perceive that they are faced with “intricate social and cultural problems,” they “tend to think of them as scientific and technological problems” to be solved separately. This gets them nowhere, he argues, because their problems are in fact all inextricably interlinked and have the same root cause: a radical, nihilistic individualism at the heart of modern American liberalism.

“The real cell of society in the United States is the individual,” he finds. This is so because the cell most foundational (per Aristotle) to society, “the family, has disintegrated.” Meanwhile, in the American system, “everything has a dual nature, and the glamour of high commodification abounds. Human flesh, sex, knowledge, politics, power, and law can all become the target of commodification.” This “commodification, in many ways, corrupts society and leads to a number of serious social problems.” In the end, “the American economic system has created human loneliness” as its foremost product, along with spectacular inequality. As a result, “nihilism has become the American way, which is a fatal shock to cultural development and the American spirit.” "

This is part of a longer thought-provoking article at palladiummag.com.  From the heading of that article is this picture showing Wang in the background of high state business and the observation that the troubles he analysed in America have come to China. 

Vaccine mandate firings: You are going to lose the best workers. The Pareto Principle

"Twenty percent of the workers in your system of employment deliver eighty percent of the productivity. Yes, 20% of the workforce around you delivers 80% of the result."

If you are a "Doer"  (link to Nurse interview at TheConservativeTreehouse)

You are likely one of the top performers at your job.

You are the person they rely upon.

YOU are the most critical worker in a system that is mostly comprised of less productive people – and that fundamental truth is the important part to remember when you consider the impact of non compliance with the vaccine mandate.

If doers do not perform their function, it is not the same as the generic Sally Smith not showing up to work."

Natural Immunity Has To Trump Spike Protein Vaccine Protection

The Sars-CoV-2 gene that gives us Covid-19 has 29,903 base pairs in its formula.  (NIH)  Clustered pairs code for proteins.   The spike protein from the virus surface is what the vaccines code for. It has 3831 base pairs in its formula.  (NIH)    The spike protein is about 13% of the whole virus.

Our own immune system deals with some of the other protein codes too.  Some form more of the surface of the virus and some are encountered when the virus exposes its innards when reproducing.  Logic says natural and acquired immunity against the whole virus is better than a one-shot defence against a single prominent feature of the virus.

Disturbing: Ivermectin and Hydroxyyouknowwhat had to be "Cancelled" to permit EUA (Emergency Use Authorization) of Vaccines.

This is so deeply disturbing.
Willful suppression of the efficacy of non-vaccine treatments of Covid-19 is at root a money thing.  Policy was in the way of profit.   The expensive vaccines could not be rushed into service if there were officially recognized treatments for SARS-CoV-2.    The policy was kept and the workaround has been to suppress reports of simpler acceptable helps.  The camp followers adopted the war cry about horse paste and quack medicines but the top people started it.

The surprise (to me) story is buried in this report on a German media whistleblower who works in the ARD empire.  "Anyone who .. demands a multidimensional perspective on the pandemic will reap indignation and scorn".

Footnote:  Why are there some studies that devalue those helps?   The therapeutics arrived too late.  The virus gets a beach-head when breathed in,  later invades vascular endothelium in the circulatory system and is generally being overcome by the body's immune defences by the time the damage to your body is done.  Sadly the vaccine spike protein invades the same tissue as the whole virus and the spikes themselves may trigger killer leukocytes to attack the epithelium.  The viral load is on the decline when people are hospitalized.   The helps are useful at the beach-head.

Experimental Gene Therapy May Be Good Or May Be Bad: Covid-19 is in the news but so is ADA-SCID

 I think "Covid-19 vaccine is experimental gene therapy" is a risk factor that needs continued testing and reporting.   Here, however, is a report on one of the first ever gene therapies that ten years later is still saving the lives of some kids.   They were unable to manufacture the adenosine deaminase gene until some healthy copies purified from mice were planted in the kids' own bone marrow.

I don't like "experimental gene therapy" but have an open mind.
What is settled however is this should never ever have been made mandatory for anyone.

"Covid-19 is a blood and blood vessel disease". Read and decide for yourself.

From the Spartacus Letter summary:

"• COVID-19 is a blood and blood vessel disease. SARS-CoV-2 infects the lining of human blood vessels, causing them to leak into the lungs.
• Current treatment protocols (e.g. invasive ventilation) are actively harmful to patients, accelerating oxidative stress and causing severe VILI (ventilator-induced lung injuries). The continued use of ventilators in the absence of any proven medical benefit constitutes mass murder.
• Existing countermeasures are inadequate to slow the spread of what is an aerosolized and potentially wastewater-borne virus and constitute a form of medical theater.

COVID-19 is not a viral pneumonia. It is a viral vascular endotheliitis and attacks the lining of blood vessels, particularly the small pulmonary alveolar capillaries, leading to endothelial cell activation and sloughing, coagulopathy, sepsis, pulmonary edema, and ARDS-like symptoms. This is a disease of the blood and blood vessels. The circulatory system. Any pneumonia that it causes is secondary to that."
