Send them to Australia: A modest proposal to relieve prison crowding

 In the 1800's, Australia  solved a lot of back-home problems by becoming a prison colony.  The time has come to build on that skill-set and send more of our lags and miscreants to Australia where they will fit right in under full-time state-subsidized supervision.  Thank you Australia.

From the Netherlands, the government banned fireworks as punishment for disobeying COVID law so the people showed the politicians who is in charge.

My Name Is Robert Malone

Dr. Malone's solemn warning to all who love their children:

"Before you inject your child – a decision that is irreversible – I wanted to let you know the scientific facts about this genetic vaccine, which is based on the mRNA vaccine technology I created:"

The full text follows:

"My name is Robert Malone, and I am speaking to you as a parent, grandparent, physician and scientist. I don’t usually read from a prepared speech, but this is so important that I wanted to make sure that I get every single word and scientific fact correct.

I stand by this statement with a career dedicated to vaccine research and development. I’m vaccinated for COVID and I’m generally pro-vaccination. I have devoted my entire career to developing safe and effective ways to prevent and treat infectious diseases.

After this, I will be posting the text of this statement so you can share it with your friends and family.

Before you inject your child – a decision that is irreversible – I wanted to let you know the scientific facts about this genetic vaccine, which is based on the mRNA vaccine technology I created:

There are three issues parents need to understand:

The first is that a viral gene will be injected into your children’s cells. This gene forces your child’s body to make toxic spike proteins. These proteins often cause permanent damage in children’s critical organs, including

• •     Their brain and nervous system
  •     Their heart and blood vessels, including blood clots
  •     Their reproductive system
  •     And this vaccine can trigger fundamental changes to their immune system

The most alarming point about this is that once these damages have occurred, they are irreparable

• •     You can’t fix the lesions within their brain
  •     You can’t repair heart tissue scarring
  •     You can’t repair a genetically reset immune system, and
  •     This vaccine can cause reproductive damage that could affect future generations of your family

The second thing you need to know about is the fact that this novel technology has not been adequately tested.

• •     We need at least 5 years of testing/research before we can really understand the risks
  •     Harms and risks from new medicines often become revealed many years later

Ask yourself if you want your own child to be part of the most radical medical experiment in human history

One final point: the reason they’re giving you to vaccinate your child is a lie.

• •     Your children represent no danger to their parents or grandparents
  •     It’s actually the opposite. Their immunity, after getting COVID, is critical to save your family if not the world from this disease

In summary: there is no benefit for your children or your family to be vaccinating your children against the small risks of the virus, given the known health risks of the vaccine that as a parent, you and your children may have to live with for the rest of their lives.

The risk/benefit analysis isn’t even close."

Evil switcheroo: PCR test gets "cancelled". Now we know why the flu disappeared. It was being called Covid-19. UPDATE

 The CDC's slippery way of saying it is here.

The plain-as-the-nose-on-your-face way of saying it is here

After December 31, 2021, the CDC will withdraw the use of the PCR test for COVID-19 testing. The CDC finally admitted the test does not differentiate between the flu and COVID virus.  This explains the disappearance of Flu cases in the US in 2020. It also inflated the COVID cases as Dr. Fauci and the DC elites knew would happen.

And a tasty footnote to the above from CDC's Walensky since the same CDC announcement reduces quarantines dramatically and deletes the requirement of having a further test at quarantine's end.  She follows the science of behavioural control.

“‘It really had a lot to do with what we thought people would be able to tolerate,’ CDC Director Walensky says on why the CDC shortened the isolation period from 10 days to 5 days if you’re asymptomatic.”

UPDATE:  This story explaining the flu stats may be wrong. CDC calls for a multi-plex viral test that will identify other viruses including the influenza ones.  This has been interpreted either rightly or wrongly as an acknowledgment that the existing test DID NOT distinguish flu from the latest SARS virus.   Several sites strongly refute this, saying the PCR test was reliably specific to one nucleotide.  Dec 30/21

The unexpected is likely now: Some signs in China and the US are sunny for us.

 Democracy has been on the decline as petty tyrants exploit Covid fears but some signals point to a brighter future in the West.     This litany of woes from the Chinese Communist Party's enclave encourage me though I wish the best for the Chinese people.  And this summary from the States suggests that except close to the bonfires of the Covid fearmongers, most Americans are now getting on with normal life by the light of day.  And what do I thank the most for that?  Omicron's impressive infectivity of the upper respiratory tract and equally impressive failure to kill and maim.

My view:  The unexpected is likely: outcomes worse or better than generally nattered on about, have become more likely.   The image of dry sand being piled higher and higher comes to mind.  At some point, a single grain starting to move anywhere on the surface of the pile will be enough to trigger an avalanche of grains.  Predicting that point is difficult, more difficult than any time before in my life.

BC Hospitalization stats way behind case stats as Omicron soars.

Has the Provincial Health Office ejaculated prematurely?
We know from reports out of South Africa that Omicron hospitalizations are very low.
Locally in BC, Dix's mouthpiece, Bonnie Henry, is believing ICU cases will track positive tests and has hit fellow citizens hard with new restrictions, to be on the safe side.

Athlete Collapses and Deaths 2021

The chart covers just one year, 2021.
The December results are probably imcomplete and should be disregarded.
However, the October peak and November decline may well be real.
That November decline holds out the hope that  damage may be short term during the vaccine's active phase and not long term damage, but one hopeful month isn't enough data.

This chart turned up in an arrticle reporting that the American Pilots Association magazine was recording extremely high deaths this year.  If you chase that story down, you'll find it's bogus.  Death tallies refer mostly to retired pilots and sometimes past year deaths aren't reported to the Association for a year or two.  This produces a misleading 2021 tally with over 100 2021 deaths and under 10 2020 and 2019 deaths.   Actually, reported deaths in 2021 are down a bit from the two previous years.

Update on Los Angeles/Long Beach ship congestion:

Another factor is a secular shift in container delivery direct to the Gulf Coast and East Coast, thanks to the widening of the Panama Canal (2016) and the fact that 60% of the US population lives east of the Mississippi.

What's with Biden's announcement that wait times are down a bit at Los Angeles/Long Beach ports?

Key roadblocks summarized here.  A feature I overlooked is  "Loitering Offshore & Slow Steaming". See chart.  The number of ships"in harbour" is going down

but the number of ships not completing their trips has not.

"(The) secular trend was interrupted by COVID, which flipped the balance of power back to the west.  Passenger planes were grounded, slashing air cargo capacity. Air freight rates spiked at the very time locked-in Americans accelerated their use of e-commerce. Importers needed goods faster to accommodate surging consumer demand. Some that had previously used air shifted to premium, high-speed trans-Pacific ocean service. Others that had previously favored the East Coast switched to LA/LB to save two weeks in transit time.

According to new data from Shifl, average transit time from China to New York is now actually lower than from China to Los Angeles."

Paxlovid almost as good as off-patent Ivermectin? Dr. John Campbell reports the research in 22 minutes Video.

All in one place, Dr. Campbell presents the science comparing Pfizer's patented Paxlovid pill to off-patent Ivermectin.  They have different architectures which means Pfizer can patent Paxlovid.  However, both can be turned to AFTER developing Covid-19 symptoms.  Both inhibit the snipping power of the same enzyme.  The Covid-19 virus relies on the 'CL-3 protease' snipper enzyme to chop our own protein down to shorter lengths that the virus can use to build copies of itself.  Annoyingly, it appears that inexpensive Ivermectin handily beat the other 23 drugs that researchers checked out as candidates to be repurposed.  It hobbled the novel coronavirus, but is actively disallowed in many countries and forums.  Don't worry about this being fringe science.  Links to the full research papers are included at every step.

Pro tip:  You'll get better results from DuckDuckGo than from Google for questioning Covid-19 narratives.      Confession:  I wanted to say "fora" instead of "forums" but prefer to be understood.

We are in an abusive relationship with government.

Chart from Issues&Insights.

Correlation between Stock Market values (P/E ratio) and Inflation for the last 150 years.

How to read the chart: (Sourced here)
Red-blue-green from left to right is arbitrary, implying 0 to 3% is a good normal and it doesn't tell you which dots are old and which ones are new.  The exceptions to that are below:Near the middle, are a few connected dots for Aug/Sept 1929Just above is a connected loop of orange dots showing the Tech Bubble 1998-2001.
Above that is a connected line of brown dots showing 2014 to the present, our current trend line.
At the top and off to the right a bit is a yellow dot for today at the end of the trendline.
That yellow dot is high for inflation but the shocker is the price people are paying compared to the earnings companies actually report. This hasn't been seen in the last century and a half.

John  Mauldin writes:

"That suggests one of two things needs to happen: either inflation needs to drop dramatically or the stock market needs to drop significantly, or some combination of the two—at least from a historical perspective. Depending on how you measure standard deviation, we are somewhere between 4–5 standard deviations from the mean. Again, dramatically higher than the Roaring 20s (well more than double) or the tech bubble (more than 50% higher)."

All I see from Covid overspending is inflation coming out the ying yang for years. 

 

Chart from CDC data shows Covid Vax has killed more people than all other vaccines since 1988.

 This data is extracted from CDC's own database.  You can find it readily on DuckDuckGo but good luck finding it on Google today.  Search term:  "VAERS reported deaths by Vaccine Type (1988-2021)".  In a sane world, the vaccine would have been pulled immediately.
