Freedom to Chains - Paul Harvey

"In 1965, American radio host Paul Harvey gave an immense warning to the American people about the fate of the nation.

WATCH: Large Garbage Bag Used To Transfer Stacks of Absentee Ballots From Detroit Drop Box...Is This What SOS Benson Means When She Says MI Elections Were "Most secure in history"?

"...100 Percent Fed Up began working with MC4EI (Michigan Citizens For Election Integrity), who poured through 16,000 hours of video footage to identify potential criminal activity that took place during the 2020 election.

• 
  So far, we’ve been able to share multiple cases of suspicious and possibly criminal activity taking place at several drop box locations. From massive ballot drops of 40-50 ballots by individuals or teams of two individuals to hundreds of people taking photos of their hands dropping ballots into the drop boxes, to Dominion tabulators being delivered to a satellite voting center where top election officials say there are no tabulations taking place, we’ve been able to share a variety of suspicious activities taking place at Detroit satellite voting centers, that if Michigan had a law and order Attorney General or honest Secretary of State, would be under investigation.
• ...As the male retrieves stacks of ballots from the drop box, an older black female is shown pulling a large black garbage bag from the back of the SUV. She brings the bag to the drop box and opens it as the white male begins dumping handfuls of absentee ballots into the black plastic garbage bag.
  

The corruption is killing our country!-----Do They Think the White House Is a Bank? - Noah Rothman, Commentary Magazine

Do They Think the White House Is a Bank? - Noah Rothman, Commentary Magazine

• ...Tell me how the pandemic justified a $5 million disbursement to Boston’s Edward M. Kennedy Institute. 
• What public health emergency necessitated renovating Colorado Springs’ golf course irrigation systems? 
• Did Seattle need to devote over $28 million to downtown apartments for the city’s homeless population, or was that one of the city’s esoteric “priorities?” 
• Has anyone strapped on green eyeshades and audited L.A. County’s $5 million “creative works” jobs program for the city’s moribund “artists?”

Beyond the fact that cash is fungible (another elementary concept we apparently need to review), these are not the unintended consequences of the Covid relief bill. 

The various relief bills were designed to be oversized, subject to minimal oversight, and nimble enough to plug unanticipated holes wherever they appeared. 

The lack of interest from the press in the abject waste this program produced would be conspicuous enough...

Experts Warn Congressional Leaders: Green Energy Begets Energy Crises

Experts Warn Congressional Leaders: Green Energy Begets Energy Crises - Linnea Lueken

• Fox Business broke a story about how several energy and environmental policy experts penned a letter of warning to congressional leaders, telling them that green energy policies damaged Europe’s ability to provide reliable electricity to citizens. 
• The warning explains that the U.S. can’t afford to go down the same path, and should embrace energy reliability rather than prioritize climate goals. This is the right approach, if the United States wants to avoid future energy crises.
• The article, “Energy experts sound alarm on Europe’s energy crisis as ‘clear and present warning’ for America,” gives a fair look at the threat posed by bad actors abroad, and how green energy policy helps put the West in a vulnerable position against those threats...

Is The Fed About To Destroy America? in [Market-Ticker]]

"...The rumored reason is that Credit Suisse may be in trouble -- specifically due to writing interest rate swaps, along with a number of other institutions which happens to include pension funds both in the UK and US, none of whom should ever be playing with levered instruments for the simple reason that leverage is everywhere and always speculative.

• But of course they are because nobody has ever gone to prison for using leverage as a means to evade requiring the underlying organization to fund pensions adequately with actual money...
• This sort of act is a ridiculous violation of anything approaching fiduciary responsibility -- which is a legal obligation for pension managers, not a suggestion. 
•  After all its not their money -- its the pensioners' money and they are charged with prudent management of same, which the use of leverage, especially leverage on a trend 40 years old that cannot reasonably go below zero, is the exact opposite of "prudent."...

Interesting viewpoint!-----Turtles all the way down: Vaccine Science and Myth

Turtles all the way down: Vaccine Science and Myth

• A superb book on how we've been fooled by vaccines. 
• If you had any doubts about whether we've been lied to, they will all be erased by the time you finish Chapter 1.

"Turtles All the Way Down shows how people have been deceived for decades about the safety and efficacy of vaccines. 

It’s devastating and hard hitting. 

It’s the best book ever written on vaccine safety (or lack thereof). 

The Foreword pretty much sums up the book, but you’ll be thoroughly convinced you’ve been conned mid-way into the first Chapter.
The top review on Amazon is an excellent summary - 5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning evaluation of the vaccine industry - "An absolutely devastating takedown of the vaccine industry, especially coming on the heels of the 'safe and effective' COVID shots, which are actually neither. This book was published in 2019 but just recently translated into English. None of the facts stated have been refuted by anyone in the vaccine industry..."...

Texas border officials report a spike in illegal immigrants arriving by charter planes at private airports - TheBlaze: 

The Texas Department of Safety reported a spike in human smuggling attempts by charter planes landing in small, private airports in the Rio Grande Valley over the last 30 days.

"They're not using the larger airports where there's TSA," said Texas Highway Patrol Staff Lieutenant Christopher Olivarez. "These are the smaller airports where you don't have the security measures in place for private planes. It's kind of hard to … do surveillance at every single airport."
