The Covid fear factory is trembling  

By S.R. Piccoli, AM THINKER

Hard times are coming for vaccine fanatics and fear-mongering lockdown enthusiasts, or at least that’s what we can reasonably expect after reading the news coming out of South Africa and the U.K. about the Omicron variant. As a matter of fact, the data out of South Africa after five weeks of Omicron spread and out of the U.K. in the first full week after Omicron hit the country suggest that the new Covid-19 variant should be a cause for celebration and relief, not fear and alarm—yet that’s not the direction in which the American media and many politicians are heading.

An AUDIT IN FULTON, PA is coming  

By Patrick Bryne

Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania overruled some Lefty Apparatchiks (Secretary of State and AG, both Dems), giving a greenlight to Fulton, County to look into machines it owns (via turning them over to the Pennsylvania State Senate). I use the story as a moment to deconstruct arguments made by some “government accountability” folk.

THE CHOICE IS OURS: What will it be?  

by Victor Sharpe

A timeless paean for peace, written millennia ago by the Biblical Jewish prophet Isaiah, appears on a wall across the street from the entrance to the building in New York City ironically housing that most unholy and unjust organization: the United Nations. The delegates from every part of the world walk by it but most see and understand it not. The words include:

And they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift-up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore. Isaiah 2:4.

On the other hand, Thomas Jefferson once wrote:

Those who hammer their guns into plows, will plow for those who do not.

No Supply Issues With Ivermectin: Pharmaceutical Supplying PRINCIPLE Oxford Trial  

By Meiling Lee, EPOCH TIMES    

 

The New Jersey pharmaceutical company supplying ivermectin to a UK trial that was paused for a short period of time, says there are no supply issues with its pills.

Ivermectin is being investigated as part of the government-backed Platform Randomised Trial of Treatments in the Community for Epidemic and Pandemic Illnesses (PRINCIPLE) in the United Kingdom as a possible home treatment for COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus. The trial was put on hold due to “temporary supply issues” as reported by Medpage Today on Dec. 14.

Details were not provided on the cause of the supply issues. The trial’s joint chief investigator, professor Chris Butler, and the trial’s press team declined to comment and respond to a query asking when the supply issue is expected to be resolved.

What Do We Do with the FBI Now?  

By John Green and Quentin Smith, AM THINKER

The events of the past five or six years have demonstrated to America that the FBI is no longer the unbiased law enforcement agency it once was.  Between the Hillary Clinton investigation-in-name-only, the Crossfire Hurricane hoax, the targeting of Americans as domestic terrorists, and playing three blind mice with the Biden graft machine, the bureau’s issues can’t be ignored any longer.  If we don’t take corrective action soon, the FBI will finish its transition from law enforcement to being a political functionary advancing the interests of one party.

There are only two options: rehabilitate the FBI, or eliminate it.  The current state is unacceptable in a functioning constitutional republic.  We need a credible and competent federal law enforcement capability.  Sadly, the FBI has lost its claim on both those things.

A company I once worked for ran afoul of equal opportunity employment regulations.  It was essentially placed on probation for a period of five years.  That probation came in the form of a consent decree — an agreement between the parties to resolve the problems, overseen by a court, and often verified by a court-appointed administrator.  It’s time for a consent decree between the FBI and the American people.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (AP) — The world’s largest and most powerful space telescope rocketed away Saturday on a high-stakes quest to behold light from the first stars and galaxies and scour the universe for hints of life.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope soared from French Guiana on South America’s northeastern coast, riding a European Ariane rocket into the Christmas morning sky.

Lawsuit Reveals Fulton County 2020 Absentee Ballot Results Were Physically Impossible and Files Were Modified  

by

There are a lot of questions surrounding the events in the State Farm Arena in Fulton County during Election 2020. All 148,318 absentee ballots were reportedly scanned in Fulton County’s ballot processing center at the Arena.

Those ballots processed in the Arena were supposed to be authenticated first. The voter logs were to be used to identify voters, and then the signatures would be verified. Separated from their envelopes, the ballots were then to be arranged in batches of 100. Each batch of ballots was then scanned using a Cannon DR-G2140 high-speed machine [as can be seen in the video from the Arena on Election night.] The image of every ballot was saved simultaneously.

The Fulton County clerk produced scanned images of absentee ballots as a result of a previous lawsuit. These images have been made public and are currently under review by a variety of individuals and groups. Read more…

The empty suit at the head of the table  

What a damning Report Card

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett never held any real executive office, and he never had to implement his plans for beating the pandemic, applying sovereignty, or defeating Hamas.

 By  Caroline B. Glick, ISRAEL HAYOM

The empty suit at the head of the table

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett held a primetime press conference about his COVID-19 policies Monday evening. It went poorly for him.

Channel 12 News reporter Ofer Hadad spoke for many Israelis when he said, “Mr. Prime Minister, on the one hand, you’re signaling urgency and fear, and on the other hand, confusion.

“You decide to require a Green Pass for entry into shopping malls, and then you do an about face. You call for children to get vaccinated and then we discover that the education minister is – at best – refusing to mobilize the school system to this end. You ask the citizens of Israel not to travel abroad. And then your family flies off to the Maldives. You’re confusing us.”

The Soviet Union, Thirty Years Later  

Pres Reagan.  “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction,” he said. “We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

The moral struggle continues.

By Bruce Bawer, FPM

For years, if you opened the closet in the foyer of my Manhattan apartment, you’d encounter a pile of copies of the New York Times from the week in late December 1991 during which the Soviet Union breathed its last. I’ve never been in the habit of hanging on to old newspapers in which my byline didn’t appear, but that week, it seemed to me at the time, was the greatest historical turning point I’d ever experienced.

It was certainly the most astonishing. I remember a point, sometime in the late 1980s, when, during a visit to Washington, I expressed over lunch with American Spectator editor Wladyslaw Pleszczynski what was then an almost universal cynicism about talk of a post-Communist Europe. “No,” said Wlady, who was far more plugged into these developments than most of us, “it’s really happening.”

A Christmas crusade: scapegoating the Jews  

By Melanie Phillips

Expulsion of the Jews from England,1290; detail from Rochester Chronicle,13th century.

Christian churches, seemingly deaf to baleful historical and theological echoes, have decided to mark Christmas 2021 by scapegoating the Jews.

In the last week, a preposterous campaign has been mounted by church leaders to blame Israeli Jews for driving Christians out of Israel and the disputed territories of Judea and Samaria.

An article in last weekend’s Sunday Times, written jointly by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, and the Archbishop of Jerusalem, Hosam Naoum, warned about a crisis of Christian survival “in the Holy Land”.

Horowitz: The indefensible approval of Pfizer and Merck drugs compared to the snubbing of ivermectin  

“The FDA has refused to even explore approval of cheap, safe, and effective repurposed drugs for 20 months, despite mounds of evidence from studies vouching for their efficacy and safety. So, naturally, now that the agency is on track to issue an emergency use authorization to the first outpatient drug for COVID, this one must be the greatest thing since penicillin, right? Wrong! In fact, the drug is so dangerous and has so many known and unknown side effects that the FDA advisory committee members basically admitted this was a “difficult” decision and that they could rescind the authorization later on. This decision makes their rejection of ivermectin, fluvoxamine, nitazoxanide, and hydroxychloroquine all the more indefensible.”

By Daniel Horowitz, THE BLAZE

Later this week, the FDA plans to approve, as the first outpatient COVID drugs, therapeutics that are extremely dangerous and unproven, even as the agency goes to war against cheap, safe, and proven drugs with a track record of no serious adverse events. The approval is as shocking as it is revealing and should serve as a warning to those who don’t believe the FDA would approve vaccines that aren’t safe and effective.

Remembering the Sbarro Massacre  

by Victor Rosenthal  Dec 23/21

In my previous blog I wrote incorrectly that 16 Israelis were murdered in the 2001 Sbarro Restaurant bombing, with one victim remaining unconscious only to die later.

The truth is that 15 died in the explosion or immediately after, and 130 were injured, some of them very seriously. A 31-year old woman named  Chana Nachenberg, who was there with Sarah, her toddler daughter, suffered a traumatic brain injury from one of the pieces of shrapnel in the bomb, and entered what doctors call a “persistent vegetative state.” Chana is still alive 20 years later, and still unresponsive. Her daughter Sarah was one of the few at the location who escaped unhurt.

Omicron coverage reveals how the establishment, media keep us scared  



The data out of South Africa, after five weeks of Omicron spread, suggest that Omicron should be a cause for celebration, not fear.Getty Images/iStockphoto

In March 2020, a profile of the typical COVID victim emerged from Italy. The average decedent was 80 years old, with approximately three comorbidities, such as heart disease, obesity or diabetes. The young had little to worry about; the survival rate for the vast majority of the population was well over 99 percent.

That portrait never significantly changed. The early assessments of COVID out of Italy have remained valid through today. And so it will prove with the Omicron variant.

FEAR INSTEAD OF COURAGE:  America under Covid  

by Howard Rotberg, NER      DEC 23/21

“We having nothing to fear but fear itself. -Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Earl E. Bakken Center for Spirituality & Healing in association with the University of Minnesota, has a website called Taking Charge of your Health & Wellbeing.  In our age of fear of Covid, this site has some great insights.

What is the effect on our physical, mental and spiritual health of living in fear? Is there something we can learn that can be applied to the exaggerated fear of a virus that has a modest fatality rate, especially among younger and healthier people?  Why are we so fearful that we are vaccinating young children against a virus that hardly affects them, concerning which we have inadequate long-term studies on side effects for their lifetimes. Why are we equating these MNRA vaccines with polio vaccines of the ‘50s which were different in scientific terms and dealt with a much more serious illness for children and which were long studied before use?

Biden Administration Backtracking on Pro-Israel Policies & Made Numerous Anti-Israel Appointments  

“We’re at a critical moment when Israel and her leaders and all of us who love Israel must stand strong against what this administration is trying to do,” ZOA President Mort Klein told viewers of the organization’s virtual gala.

By Dmitriy Shapiro, JNS

(DECEMBER 22, 2021 / JNS) Leaders of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) warned supporters to be vigilant against what they believe to be increasing anti-Israel positions from leaders, and the trend of encroaching tolerance for antisemitic rhetoric masked as anti-Zionism, during the organization’s annual gala on Sunday.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the gala was held as a webcast, highlighted by video addresses from leaders and activists in the ZOA, as well as politicians such as former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.

Please — stop the coup porn  

By Victor Davis Hanson

Please --- stop the coup porn
In a recent Washington Post op-ed, three retired generals, Paul Eaton, Antonio Taguba, and Steven Anderson warn of a supposedly impending coup should Donald Trump be elected in 2024.

The column seemed strangely timed to coincide with a storm of recent Democratic talking points that a re-elected Trump, or even a Republican sweep of the 2022 midterms, would spell a virtual end of democracy.

DEMS ARE DOOMED  

Tucker Carlson: “This is the end of the Democratic Party”

Tucker Carlson’s segment last night dealt with the failings of the Democratic Party and how because of that, they are trying to scare you and ruin your Christmas.

The Fox News host explained that the Democratic Party can no longer run America because of one key fact, the latest Marist poll has only 33% of Hispanics supporting Joe Biden. That’s a massive blow. There is no way a Democrat president can be re-elected, or elected, with numbers that low in that demographic.
