Lockdowns less and less justifiable by the science: Links 2, May 9, 2020

1. Nobel Prize-winning scientist shares COVID-19 data showing strict lockdowns were an overreaction

Professor Michael Levitt, who teaches structural biology at the Stanford School of Medicine, won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for “the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems.”

 

And according to Levitt, coronavirus data show that sweeping lockdown measures were an overreaction that may actually backfire.

 

Levitt has been analyzing the COVID-19 outbreak from a statistical perspective since January and has been remarkably accurate in his predications. The data show that the outbreak never actually grew exponentially, suggesting harsh lockdown measures, which have drastically impacted the world economy, were probably unnecessary.

2. Sweden, like Canada, does nothing to stop people who do this from coming in, but tries to ban the tools they use instead.

3. And this is why the US has a second amendment

4. Ilhan Omar Just Got Caught Raising Money for a Minnesota Food Store and Pocketing the Cash

She’s only been in Congress for one term and already this woman has been caught in numerous scandals including immigration fraud, marrying her brother and funneling money into her lover’s consulting firm!

(Click through to GP to see the tweet from Omar trying to raise money for a charity, and then the director of the charity explaining they had nothing to do with her, and she never gave them a cent)

5. Amazing how fast we give up privacy and rights. What next, full DNA work up for pre-crime analysis?

6. Expert Suggests Alleged Mastermind of Venezuela’s Failed Coup Is ‘Double Agent’ Working for Maduro

The Venezuelan military defector identified as the ringleader of the botched coup attempt in Venezuela was likely working as a “double agent” for the same man he allegedly attempted to overthrow, socialist narco-dictator Nicolás Maduro, Breitbart News has learned.

 

“This was a counterintelligence operation from the Maduro regime that used a military defector as a ‘dangle’ to basically infiltrate the Venezuelan opposition first and then also infiltrate Colombian and U.S. authorities,” Joseph Humire, Western Hemisphere expert and executive director of the Center for a Secure Free Society (SFS) think tank, said, echoing other assessments.

 

“It is debatable how successful they did at that, but the strategic purpose behind this counterintelligence operation was to create a false positive so they can justify their false narrative of an aggressive U.S. military incursion,” Humire added.

 

Echoing the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the Spy Museum defined a “dangle” as “a person sent by the intelligence agency of his or her own country who approaches an intelligence agency in the hope of being recruited as a spy so as to allow a double agent operation for the purpose of intelligence collection or disinformation.”

(We believe that this event was a sort of low budget version of the Turkish false flag event that has allowed Erdogan to wipe Turkey clean of pretty much all opposition to his becoming a total and absolute power in Turkey)

Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, Richard, Sassy, Bob B., EB., C., Xanthippa, and many many more for bringing the info. Today was the coldest May 9 since 1975. Just FYI.

This is an interesting video. It appears to be about North Koreans being used by China to poach Russian waters and how they get arrested and jailed for it. The documentarian is somewhat sympathetic to the NORK position. But they were clearly committing serious crimes against the environment on behalf of China.

Someone sent in a video of some seagulls messing with what looks like a cell tower of some kind. The person videoing the scene seems to think it means that birds know that 5G is bad and that is why they are doing whatever it is they are doing near the tower.

I simply could not help but mess with it.

  1. Many lost their way
    And rationalized it every day
    Excusing away the words of those
    Who told us what to think and say
    Like ghostly hands that got a grip
    On every letter, every quip
    Every smirk and every move
    Every gesture under heaven
    That may not follow or conform
    So wonders you the crime you’ve done
    Walking through the airport when
    Your name is summoned loud and clear
    Because a light dot on your head
    Clocks the fever that they dread
    But have no fever, in fact, you
    For you’ve been nabbed
    For what you said.

    Something ghastly seems afoot
    When mothers’ arms are looted by
    The cops a murder crows so black
    They’ve lost their souls for what, for jack
    For pensions and their weekly wage
    The song remains the same, I guess
    Looping like that Nazi tune
    Wessel of the Horst now sing
    It’s time to take a little stock
    When mothers’ babies little legs
    Are spinning in the air so fast
    Held aloft by a cop whose head Has no light dot so fancy that

    Automatons you may rejoice
    Your time seems nigh
    Your time high noon
    The showdown can’t be so far off
    When the weld of mothers-sons is cut
    When cops are owned by you, alone
    When springtime blossoms are chained off
    When chained-up spirits are condoned
    Rejoice until the counter comes
    And come it will I hear the train
    She’s comin’ round that bend
    Her whistle blows that one sweet tune
    So loud it goes “Toot-toot!”
    Her whistle blows that one sweet tune
    It sounds just like the truth.

    • Oh, thank-you Johnny!
      This train will have a boy with blue hair, the offspring of an imam and a parrot … and the bad guys die laughing…

      I’m missing Perfectchild so much.

      • Thanks Yucki. Yes I wonder about him. I’ve learned alot from him, and he was always kind and charitable on the few occasions I challenged him. He has helped me understand the meaning of the Holy Ghost, conscience, and what it means to be whole.

        I will go looking for him if I must. He wouldn’t be the first, as you may recall. Whatever type it is we are, we have big mouths (even if we codify our words in verse). He will show up if he’s ok.

        C’mon, PC, we need you back. You are read.

        • Perfectchild puts together the psychology of sexual deviance with the socialist-mommy fantasy. AND how Islam thrusts itself - so to speak - into that toxic gumbo. Over and over and over, in one context after another till I kind of get it.

          All the stuff we see, he looks at it from a different angle. We tend to focus on the political underpinnings, a la Mj. Coughlin, et al. Perfectchild’s approach is more organic, the psychology of personality in social (or anti-social) behaviors that shape the news of the day.

          That’s unique. That’s our PC.

    • Good question. All I know is birds are very smart. My budgie, Fred, told me so.

      • Sounds like my cat, she tells me this is her house and I get to live here because I can open the food cans.

  2. 1.

    How long will these regimes around the World keep us locked up?
    Are we free citizens or guinea pigs of Big Pharma?
    Do we want to allow our fundamental rights, our bases of care and our jobs to be sacrificed on the altar of some selected virologists?
    Should a World Health Organization, the largest financier of which is the American billionaire Bill “Mengele” Gates, determine what remains of our freedom and democracy?
    We were cheated and lied to.
    The government does not tell us:
    Corona only poses a risk for high-risk groups, not for the normal population.
    The average age of the corona dead is above average life expectancy – and it is not even clear how many died only “with” and not “through” Corona.
    So it’s obvious:
    All restrictions on business and public life must be lifted immediately.

    And the Mantra of the Corona Nostra is;

    One Vaccine Chip to rule them all,
    One Vaccine Chip to find them,
    One Vaccine Chip to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
