HOW THE DEMOCRATS OPERATE... Tammy Bruce's January 13, 2022 Column from the Washington Times: "Biden chooses hate and division over patriotism and optimism" What you hear these days from the Democrats isn’t madness. They haven’t lost their minds, but they are in a desperate panic for a good reason. Historically throughout the world, no one has wanted what the left ultimately vomits up onto a society. For a while, leftists can fake being genuinely concerned about policy and the quality of people’s lives, but that’s a lie, and eventually, they’re exposed as the grifters and abusers that they are. We are at that stage right now here in our beloved United States. The Democrats are now taking a page from all the world’s banana republics and totalitarian regimes by declaring their critics and political opponents’ criminals. Or, even better, terrorists! This slide into demonizing our fellow Americans is as appalling as it is predictable. What has the worldwide left always done when citizens say thanks but no thanks? Looking at the Democratic Party right now tells you everything you need to know. Like all brutes, they declare those who disagree with them enemies of the state. They establish cultural regulations making it too frightening and dangerous for many to speak up. They make it a crime to criticize or question official narratives. They’re constructing scenarios to divide and conquer one group from another. Racist! Sexist! Transphobe! Homophobe! Those accusations are bad enough, but now two more accusations have been added to the Democrats’ arsenal — terrorist and domestic enemy — ratcheting up the malicious intent of these federal tyrants. It’s bad enough to be smeared with the lie that you’re a bigot, but these labels are to move us along from being smeared and libeled to being arrested. The Democrats reveal their template declaring Americans who dissent as terrorists every chance they get. Every event, every tragedy and especially every criticism and rejection of the Biden dumpster fire have the potential to become terrorist “incitement.” If our betters arbitrarily decide it is so. Almost immediately after the Jan. 6 riot, the Democrats declared it a terrorist act. Yet the majority arrested on Jan. 6 are charged with misdemeanors like trespassing. Reuters reported in August 2021: “The FBI has found scant evidence that the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was the result of an organized plot to overturn the presidential election result. … ‘Ninety to ninety-five percent of these are one-off cases,’ said a former senior law enforcement official with knowledge of the investigation. ‘Then you have five percent, maybe, of these militia groups that were more closely organized. But there was no grand scheme.’” But the Democrats keep telling the “insurrection” lie. Sen. Marco Rubio put it well, speaking on the Senate floor: “I think almost everyone would tell you what happened on Jan. 6 was a terrible thing, and it should never have happened, and it should never happen again. But I don’t care how many candlelight vigils and musical performances you have from the cast of Hamilton, you’re not going to convince most normal and sane people that our government last year was almost overthrown by a guy wearing a Viking hat and speedos.” Indeed. Vice President Kamala Harris compared the Jan. 6 riot to Pearl Harbor and Sept. 11 attacks. The comparison is vile and insulting to all Americans. She deliberately made it to conflate Trump and his supporters with Imperial Japan in World War II and al-Qaeda, state enemies who murdered thousands of Americans. The method to their madness never ends. Remember the National School Board Association letter in October of 2021 comparing parents to terrorists and asking the Department of Justice to use the Patriot Act against those protesting critical race theory and other garbage woke ideas being taught to their children? We now have confirmation this was not an organic outreach by an out-of-touch leftist activist group. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona solicited that letter from the NSBA. His office denies it, but it is revealed in emails obtained by a parents’ group. This was a request from an outside group that the Biden administration needed to give itself the reason to federally target engaged parents who were hurting President Biden’s so-called progressive agenda. This is another naked effort to use federal power to intimidate and frighten regular Americans into silence and retreat. But they have to have the excuse to use federal power, and terrorism is that canard. It doesn’t stop there. This week, during a speech in Atlanta pushing the Democrats’ bill making elections more vulnerable to fraud, Mr. Biden called Americans who oppose their corrupt project to destroy election integrity “domestic enemies.” Do you see where this goes? Everyone who opposes any part of the Democrats’ agenda, whether parents, voters, journalists or conservatives in all walks of life, will be targets of intimidation and control to frighten us into retreat. Threats, bullying and force and the last bastion of the failed and malignant. It will also be the last stand of a Democratic Party that chose hate and division over patriotism and optimism.
How Much of a Success was Biden's Syrian Raid? The following text was written by Richard Baris The Biden Administration is touting the raid by U.S. Special Operations against a largely unknown HVT (high value target) in a lesser known area of Syria. But the reports on the ground suggest Joe Biden has murdered more women and children while spinning it as a successful mission. Unsurprisingly, the corrupt corporate media in the U.S. are simply regurgitating their press releases without question. But "A Brief on the U.S. Raid in Idlib" by the on-the-ground group Syria Civil Defence states "at least 13 people, including 6 children and 4 women, were killed". The SCD team personally entered the bulding shortly after 3am local time and removed another injured young girl before getting her to the hospital. Verified reports revealed the U.S. lost an expensive asset, a helicopter outfitted for the Special Operations Aviation Regiment, and the HVT blew himself up before U.S. Special Operations were even able to reach him.
Let's address this once again... Why would they promote a meta-analysis study by a right-wing think tank which cherry picks the underlying studies to provide the pre-determined result. An analysis which is completely flawed and is reminiscent of the Ivermectin meta-analysis studies -- which were pure bullshiat. This anti-lockdown study is just more of the same type of nonsense. Now let's take a look at feedback from respected scientists on this completely flawed anti-lockdown, pre-print, non-peer reviewed study. Scientists criticize flaws in study that found lockdowns do little to reduce COVID deaths The new paper, drafted by three economists, does not come from Johns Hopkins' Coronavirus Resource Center https://nationalpost.com/health/joh...le-to-prevent-covid-deaths-flawed-critics-say Expert reaction to a preprint looking at the impact of lockdowns, as posted on the John Hopkins Krieger School of Arts and Sciences website https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/...-krieger-school-of-arts-and-sciences-website/ Here’s What We Know About ‘Johns Hopkins Study’ on Lockdowns It's a non-peer reviewed working paper that has not been endorsed by the university. https://www.snopes.com/news/2022/02/03/johns-hopkins-study-on-lockdowns/ The Bottom Line The viral “Johns Hopkins study” about lockdowns was not the work of Johns Hopkins University, it was not peer-reviewed, and it was not written by epidemiologists. A number of researchers have also taken issue with the methods used in this study. Furthermore, the conclusions of this non-peer reviewed working paper run counter to published studies in academic journals that found lockdowns did prevent COVID-19 deaths. One study, for example, found that lockdown policies helped prevent millions of deaths early in the pandemic. NPR reported: Solomon Hsiang, director of the Global Policy Lab, says these unprecedented shelter-in-place orders came at an extreme economic cost. Yet when government officials were ordering them, it was unclear exactly how significant the social benefits would be. “The value of these studies you’re seeing today is that they’re demonstrating what the benefits of this policy are,” Hsiang said in a press call discussing the studies. “They averted tens of millions of additional infections and millions of deaths.”
I implore you, DO NOT FORGET what they’ve done to you. Do not let their sudden realization they are in bad shape politically excuse the last two-plus years of abuses. They shut down your job. Called many of you "non-essential." Closed your kids' schools. Expected you to live off $1200 for months while they got richer and richer. They demanded you stay home. Denied you the ability to be with your dying loved ones. Then denied you the ability to give those loved ones a proper funeral. While they let George Floyd have three. They told you to stay home. While they went on vacation. Visited family. The hair salon. They arrested you for paddle boarding by yourself. They shut down the parks and the playgrounds. They called you a grandma killer if you questioned them. Suspended you from social media if you didn’t obey the narrative. They called you domestic terrorists when you demanded your kids get the education your tax dollars paid for. They mocked you when you demanded a return to normalcy for children. They sneer at your concern over empty shelves and exploding grocery and utility bills. They denied you the chance to try alternative treatments for COVID. Then they fired you for not getting the vaccine. When you stand up for your freedom, they call you Nazis and bigots. Do not forget what they have done. Do not forgive them. They are hoping that, by November, you have forgotten the nightmare of the last 2+ years. YOU struggle to make ends meet and the best the Biden administration can do is free crack pipes for "racial equity." This is on top of the woke, cancel culture bull they shove down our throats, the 2020 riots, being accused of racism and bigotry because we oppose their agenda. As the election draws closer, they'll pretend they didn’t do any of this. They'll gaslight us. Project. Blame the GOP (like they tried to when defunding the police went south). DO NOT give them power. They haven't learned a damn thing from this. You re-elect them, and you can expect masks and lockdowns and nonsense in perpetuity. Not just for COVID, but for whatever else they deem a "public health emergency" (guns, climate change). They will trample your rights. VOTE THEM OUT. NEVER FORGET.
