  1. My American sister expresses disgust with her home and native Dystopia, and I can’t blame her. However this place is a busted Volkswagen Beetle compared to the giant piece of industrial freedom machinery that is blowing gaskets and hydraulic hoses to our south.

    Someone out there will write a fiction novel where the whole continent was saved by a benign dictatorship. The story will go on about how it was the only way to clean things up. It will be a real page turner, I bet, with a handsome hero (sorry, I’m busy), who has a good woman by his side. There will be thrills and spills and car chases and twists and turns right up to the end. The story will show how it was the only way to right the endless wrongs–with real smarts and efficiency–replete with a team of translators on staff to decipher all the dialectic negations and other Hegelian word trickery, to fix the erasing border with its flow of sub-prime human capital (to be kind), the de-industrialization, the corruption, the lines of effort–in short the galloping collectivist insanity that never works and never will work because it is forever imposing pseudo reality. Yup, the hero will have a macho name like Dirk or Sonny or Slade–something tough. The woman will be feminine and really smart. She’ll have all the best lines. She’ll say things like, “Oh, Dirk,” just when the rubber is hitting the road. He’ll say things like, “Don’t worry, people!” in his deep voice just when all seems lost.

    The author will probably go under a nom de plume. Maybe something crazy to fit the times. How about Dr. Inky Baru if you’re out there, Mr. Ghostwriter? Just a silly suggestion.

    He (yes, HE just to be counter culture) will write about how, once the counter-revolution was fully kinetic, the Yanks looked north at the mess and thought hey, what the heck–there are enough people begging for help up there, and it’s the only asset within reach that will make us solvent again. Besides we can’t have the Chicoms on our doorstep. So while we’re at it… Look at all the minerals, wood and water. Besides, we need our pantry back if we are to re-industrialize.

    Dr. Baru may have a hard time with a title, though. Such a big book. Not big by weight, necessarily, but in its understanding. May I suggest “AMBIT”? And may I also suggest you get to it sooner rather than later? What’s that? Stop telling you what to do? Hey, that’s my line. I’m just–. What? F-off? You’re even worse than I imagined you would be. How dare you tell me to F-off. We frown on that kind of language around here!

    Fact is, Inky, you’re still nothing but a piece of fiction, got it? Whoever you turn out to be, it won’t matter. You’re probably a chain smoking, whiskey guzzling social reject that no one will read because of censorship. You’ll end up as just another dissident in a gulag somewhere way up north, gathering moose kak from the forest floor to burn for warmth. You’ll be long gone before anyone reads Ambit, and when they do they will, to your credit, wonder how you redrew the map that nobody saw coming at the time.

  2. NEW: Speaker McCarthy Says CNN Did More Damage Than Tucker – Then Reveals New Information About January 6 Committee (VIDEO)
    By Cristina Laila Mar. 7, 2023 8:15 pm471 Comments

    House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Tuesday evening was ambushed by rabid, left-wing reporters for giving Fox News host Tucker Carlson access to January 6 footage.

    The Democrat-RINO-Media complex collectively lost their minds after Speaker McCarthy gave Tucker Carlson never-before-seen January 6 footage.

    The newly released J6 footage blew the “insurrection” narrative up.

    So-called ‘reporters’ asked McCarthy why he chose transparency over politics in deciding to release the footage.

    YourDIY
    McCarthy defended Tucker Carlson and said transparency was his first priority.

    “Each person can come up with their own conclusion, I just wanted to make sure that I had transparency,” McCarthy said.

    The Speaker then blasted CNN for airing footage that put his security at risk.

    “I know when CNN.. where you guys actually broke where we were. This was a secret location…I don’t know if you got concern about that. I don’t even know from a point of security if we can ever be taken there again – but when you broke that at CNN that was a real concern to a lot of people,” McCarthy said blasting the CNN reporter.

  3. Is NATO Bluffing Or Is IT Beefing Up Forces to Back a Ukrainian Offensive?
    By Larry Johnson Mar. 8, 2023 7:00 am59 Comments

    There is a lot of curious military activity involving NATO forces and equipment that is not receiving much media scrutiny

    Let us start with the recent action by the U.S. Air Mobility Command removing tail numbers and unit info from planes:

    Air Mobility Command has directed its refueling and cargo planes to obscure the majority of identifying information painted on the aircraft, citing national security concerns — an unusual move that is alarming to government watchdogs. . . .

    “Because of operational security concerns, we cannot provide specifics, though our aircraft will maintain markings as required by law,” Stewart said in the provided statement.

    The change in the paint schemes, first reported by Aviation Week, comes a little more than a month after Air Mobility commander Gen. Mike Minihan sent a memo to his service members telling them to prepare for a war with China and warning them that it could be coming as soon as 2025.

    But despite AMC’s stated justification of national security concerns, the new move to obscure some identifying info on planes is both alarming and puzzling to government watchdogs and transparency advocates.

    • UK Opens Military Base In Northern Norway

      The UK on Wednesday announced the opening of a military base in the far north of Norway to strengthen NATO’s capabilities in the Arctic amid concerns following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

      The newly established Norwegian site, called Camp Viking, will serve as a hub for Royal Marines Commandos, said Britain’s Royal Navy.

      It described the troops as “the tip of the Arctic spear” and “the unit the UK turns to when it needs troops able to fight in cold weather extremes.

      “A new Arctic operations base will support Britain’s commandos for the next 10 years as the UK underscores its commitment to security in the High North,” the statement added.

      Norway, which borders Russia, refuses to host permanent bases for foreign soldiers, so Camp Viking is due to remain open for just a decade.

      The purpose-built base, located around 40 miles (65 kilometres) south of Tromso, will be able to accommodate all personnel from the elite commando-led Royal Marines force which reacts to emerging crises in Europe.

      “The camp’s location is ideal for deterring threats in the region and situated so the UK can respond rapidly if needed to protect NATO’s northern flank and its close ally, Norway,” the navy statement said.

      Around a thousand commandos have deployed to the base this winter.

      In a comment to AFP, Norway’s defence ministry said the facility had previously been used by NATO allies and then Dutch Marines.

      “The camp is Norwegian and financed through Norwegian infrastructure and operational funds,” a ministry spokeswoman said.

      A founding member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Norway regularly hosts allied troops for combat training in extreme cold.

      The Nordic country, which shares a 123-mile (198-kilometre) border with Russia, has provided Ukraine with a wide range of military equipment, including artillery and ammunition.

      The Ukraine conflict prompted its eastern neighbours Finland and Sweden to apply for NATO membership in May 2022, turning the page on policies of military non-alignment in force for decades.

  6. Trudeau gives federal employees a $75K benefit for sex changes

    The Trudeau government is funding sex change surgeries for federal public service employees who are transgender and Canadians have taken to Twitter to express their disapproval of the new “health benefit.”

    Starting July 1, each transgender employee receives a health benefit of up to $75,000 for “gender affirmation” procedures, such as sex reassignment surgeries.

    https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/westernstandard.news/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/3/d7/3d78c8ba-b6f8-11ed-b127-4ba47741d2c6/63fd3fcd35be7.image.png?resize=990%2C392

    The Canada Life Assurance Company, which administers the Public Service Health Care Plan (PSHCP), will begin covering “medically necessary” interventions for people on “gender affirmation journeys” not covered by their provincial healthcare plan.

    The gender-affirming care includes sex change surgeries and hormone therapies to help individuals align their gender identity with their body and physical presentation.

    The PSHCP is not specific on what procedures will be covered. For example, some trans activists view electrolysis, liposuction, facial masculinization, and feminization surgery as necessary.

    To access the $75,000 in “gender affirmation” coverage, a person must have an approved Gender Affirmation Application Form, be over 18 years old, have used all the provincial health coverage available, and a physician or nurse practitioner must do all the procedures.

  7. DAILY MAIL – Covid vaccines couldn’t have been fast-tracked any quicker because the virus wasn’t deadly enough, Sir Chris Whitty claimed in leaked WhatsApps

    Chief medical officer said virus did not kill enough to warrant rushing jab trials

    Sir Chris Whitty told ministers Covid vaccines couldn’t be fast-tracked during the early days of the pandemic because the virus wasn’t deadly enough, according to leaked WhatsApp messages.

    The chief medical officer was responding to a question by Dominic Cummings in February 2020.

    Mr Cummings, then chief adviser to Prime Minister Boris Johnson, asked about the credibility of a report that Israeli scientists were just weeks away from developing Covid vaccines.

    But Sir Chris responded that a disease with a fatality rate as low as Covid’s — saying for argument’s sake that it was around 1 per cent — would need a ‘very safe’ vaccine and that no short-cuts could be taken.

    ‘There will be a lot of good vaccine candidates that enter early clinical trials in the next few months,’ he said.

    ‘The rate limiting steps are late clinical trials for safety and efficacy, and then manufacturing.

    ‘For a disease with a low (for the sake of argument 1 per cent) mortality a vaccine has to be very safe so the safety studies can’t be shortcut.’

    Sir Patrick Vallance, the Government’s chief scientific adviser, also responded to Mr Cummings by saying while the Israeli team’s research could work, it wasn’t going to be a matter of ‘weeks’.

    ‘All of these approaches will take many months at the very and most optimistic best,’ he wrote.

    ‘Remember we still don’t have a vaccine that we know works for Zika yet despite lots of work over years.’

    Almost 54million Brits have had at least one dose of a Covid vaccine since the roll-out started in December 2020 — just nine months after it was declared a pandemic.

    But Mr Cummings would famously go on to claim to MPs in May 2021 that the UK’s vaccine rollout could have started months earlier in September, if the nation had abandoned traditional safety tests in favour of a ‘human challenge’ trial.

    This would have seen ‘up to 10,000’ volunteers injected with the virus with their families given ‘£1 million or whatever’ if they died, the former advisor said.

    Before Covid jabs became available, the general fatality risk of dying from the virus was estimated to be around 1 per cent.

    However, individual risk of death from the virus, for example for the elderly, or for people with health conditions that made them more vulnerable to becoming severely ill with the virus, could be much higher.

    Once vaccines started to blunt the impact of the virus, the chances of dying fell to about one in 3,000 — similar to seasonal flu.

    The WhatsApp group the messages were posted in included ministers, experts, and officials.

    MailOnline has not seen or independently verified the WhatsApp messages, leaked to The Daily Telegraph by Isabel Oakeshott, the journalist who helped ex-Health Secretary Matt Hancock write his book Pandemic Diaries.

    ===========================

    KEY CLAIMS OF THE LOCKDOWN FILES INVESTIGATION

    A fresh cache of 100,000 text and WhatsApp messages leaked to the Daily Telegraph by the ex-journalist who ghost-wrote Hancock’s Pandemic Diaries claimed:

    -Matt Hancock rejected the Chief Medical Officer’s call to test all residents going into English care homes for Covid

    -A minister in Mr Hancock’s department said restrictions on visitors to care homes were ‘inhumane’, but residents remained isolated many months on

    -Mr Hancock’s adviser arranged for a personal test to be couriered for Jacob Rees-Mogg’s child at a time of national shortage

    -Mr Hancock told former chancellor George Osborne, then editor of the Evening Standard, ‘I WANT TO HIT MY TARGET!’ as he pushed for favourable front-page coverage

    -Mr Hancock allegedly met his 100,000-tests-a-day target by counting kits that were despatched before the deadline but might never be processed

    -Social care minister Helen Whately told Mr Hancock the testing system was ‘definitely working’ after she managed to secure a test ‘just’ 50 miles from where she lived.

    -Mr Osborne warned Mr Hancock that ‘no one thinks testing is going well’ in late 2020

    -The then prime minister, Boris Johnson, revealed he was going ‘quietly crackers’ about the UK’s shortage of test kits

    -Face masks were introduced in school hallways and communal areas after the PM was told it would avoid an ‘argument’ with Scotland’s First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon

    -Matt Hancock took ‘rearguard’ action to close schools after former education secretary Sir Gavin Williamson persuaded the PM to keep them open in January 2021

    -Sir Gavin said teachers were looking for an ‘excuse’ not to work during the pandemic

    – Ministers said there was ‘no robust rationale’ for imposing the ‘rule of six’ on children, but did it anyway

    – Pupils with false positive results on a lateral flow test had to isolate at home for ten days, even when they tested negative on a PCR, to avoid ‘unpicking’ the policy

    – The PM feared that he ‘blinked too soon’ in plunging the UK into a second Covid lockdown after being warned that gloomy modelling which bounced him into the move was ‘very wrong’

    -Mr Johnson was eager to ease curbs on retail, hospitality and gatherings in June 2020 but was told he was ‘too far ahead of public opinion’

    – Mr Hancock and top civil servant Simon Case joked about travellers ‘locked up’ in quarantine hotels during Covid lockdown

    -The minister said the Government should ‘get heavy with the police’ to help crack down on Covid lockdown rulebreakers

    – Mr Hancock’s team asked if they could ‘lock up’ Nigel Farage after he posted a video of himself in a pub when they suspected he was in breach of rules

    • The former Health Secretary hoped the pandemic would ‘propel’ his career ‘into the next league’ and said he thought he ‘looked great’ in a picture in a MailOnline article

    – Mr Hancock referred to Rishi Sunak’s Eat Out to Help Out scheme as ‘eat out to help the virus get about’ and lobbied officials not to extend the scheme

    • Mr Hancock clashed with the Treasury, calling Steve Barclay, now the Health Secretary, a ‘w***er’ and accused Mr Sunak of ‘showing ankle to the hard right’ by warning of a second national lockdown

    -In the hours after his affair with married aide Gina Coladangelo became public, he said the worst they could be accused of was kissing ‘before they legalised hugs’

    -Ministers sought to remove NHS England boss Lord Stevens just says after Covid was first detected, saying it would be a ‘massive improvement’

    -Mr Hancock plotted to have ‘worse than useless’ and ‘complete loudmouth’ Sir Jeremy Farrar, who is now the WHO’s top scientist, sacked from SAGE

    -Mr Hancock planned when to ‘deploy’ the news of a new Covid variant to ‘frighten the pants off’ the public so they complied with lockdown rules

    – The former Health Secretary branded the Government’s vaccine tsar Dame Kate Bingham ‘totally unreliable’ and ‘wacky’ after she said only the vulnerable needed to be vaccinated against Covid

    -Mr Hancock wanted to be the face of the vaccine rollout, planning to do media rounds and ‘own’ the news of the Covid jabs

    -Mr Hancock attempted to hide that he’d take Ms Coladangelo to a dinner with the US health secretary

    -Sir Chris advised ministers not to enforce the sex ban during the pandemic

  8. Did Murdoch Shut Tucker Down? Rumblings that Tucker Changed His Show Plan After Threats and Pressure from Regime
    By Jim Hoft Mar. 8, 2023 9:41 am527 Comments
    TruthGettr

    Did Tucker Carlson change his show plan last night?

    In late February Tucker Carlson announced that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted him unfettered access to the Jan. 6, 2021 protest footage at the US Capitol.

    Axios reported that House Speaker McCarthy handed over 41,000 hours of Jan 6 Capitol footage to Tucker Carlson at FOX News.

    Tucker Carlson made an announcement on the news later that day. Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave Tucker Carlson and his team unfettered access to over 44,000 hours of January 6 footage.

    Tucker was the only media outlet allowed to access the thousands of hours of footage.

    Since the announcement, The Gateway Pundit and 33 January 6 Defendants and dozens of their family members and supportive outlets have signed a petition demanding Kevin McCarthy give access to The Gateway Pundit and the January 6 Defendants and their families who are not being provided the critical government video for their trials.

    Last Thursday night Tucker Carlson told his audience he will release information this week on his team’s analysis of the 42,000 hours of video footage from January 6, 2021 protests.

    Tucker’s Monday show was explosive – Tucker Carlson immediately exposed how many of the narratives propagated by the January 6 commission were vicious lies.

    Among these lies were Brian Sicknick being murdered by protesters, (Tucker showed he was unharmed), Jacob Chansley aka “The Qanon Shaman” committing sedition (he marched peacefully throughout the Capitol), and Ray Epps being a patriotic whistleblower (he perjured himself before the committee.

    Then the US Senate leaders Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell jumped into action. They cannot allow their narratives to be disrupted. Schumer went to the Senate floor and threatened Tucker Carlson and FOX News for daring to show video evidence from that day.

    Mitch McConnell sided with Schumer and against the American people.

    Tuesday night’s show was tampered down. Tucker Carlson did not release any explosive video. His interview with a Capitol Hill police officer was interesting but subdued. There were no big “reveals” on the show last night.

    There is so much from January 6 that is left to be discussed.

    Tucker Carlson has yet to report on the four Trump supporters who died that day and the police involvement in each of their deaths.

    Now there are suggestions that Rupert Murdoch and the FOX News brass got to Tucker and changed his show plan.

  10. Israel protests force Pentagon chief to cut Tel Aviv trip short, Israeli officials say

    The planned “day of resistance” protests over the Israeli government’s judicial overhaul and expected roadblocks forced Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to delay his arrival in Israel to Thursday and will confine his visit to a location within the airport grounds, according to Israeli officials.

    The big picture: Austin, who was initially expected in Israel on Wednesday night, has become very involved in the Biden administration’s efforts to de-escalate the situation in the occupied West Bank and prevent things from worsening during the historically sensitive period of Ramadan and Passover.

    Ramadan begins in two weeks, while Passover will be celebrated in April.
    The tensions in the West Bank escalated on Tuesday when the Israeli military killed six Palestinians in a raid in the West Bank city of Jenin. Among them was a Hamas operative who Israeli officials said killed two Israelis in a shooting attack last week.

    What to watch: Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will go to the airport area to meet with Austin.

    Netanyahu is expected to travel to the airport for the meeting via helicopter to avoid the protesters.
    The Pentagon confirmed that the location of the meetings was moved at the request of the Defense Ministry.
    The organizations leading the protests against the Israeli government’s judicial overhaul plan said they’re planning a day of resistance on Thursday that will include blocking the roads to Israel’s main international airport.
    Between the lines: Galant is one of the more moderate officials in the Israeli government and is seen by the Biden administration as someone they can work with to calm down tensions, two U.S. and Israeli officials said.

  11. REBEL NEWS – Guilbeault and company spent $622K on flights to climate conference

    According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the federal records peg the expenditures of the entire delegation at $1.8 million, including a million for hotel charges, $622,000 for airfares and $27,000 on meals.

    Canadian delegates to the last climate conference burned $622,000 in airfares, despite advocating for “the next step forward for climate ambition.”

    Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault led a 266-member Canadian delegation — including 53 from his department — to the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, last November 6 to 18.

    He said the finances reflect the costs incurred by different government departments as of November 21.

    According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the federal records peg the expenditures of the entire delegation at $1.8 million, including a million for hotel charges, $622,000 for airfares, and $27,000 on meals.

    However, Guilbeault said the amounts do not reflect final costs.

    The environment minister claimed the climate crisis is an “inescapable reality.”

    “Climate change can no longer be considered a future threat. It is upon us. Canadians already feel the effects, from droughts to wildfires to shoreline erosion and floods.”

    Guilbeault clarified that taxpayers only cover the costs for federal employees and some Indigenous representatives, youth and civil service representatives, stating most delegates cover their expenses out of pocket.

    Delegates to the earlier Glasgow conference included Deputy Finance Minister Michael Sabia, who billed $13,655 to attend the final three days of the meeting.

    Sabia has urged Canadians to think about climate change in previous speeches.

    “It is important to contribute positively to what I think is a massive issue facing humanity, climate change,” said Sabia in 2018.

    He claimed we see its impacts every day.

    “Heat waves and drought in Europe, this summer record temperatures of 33 degrees Celsius north of the Arctic Circle, deadly hurricanes, floods, wildfires that were the largest in the history of California.”

    In 2020, Sabia told reporters that Canada “must meet its greenhouse gas emissions to build a cleaner and more prosperous economy for the future.”

    “The evidence is there.”

    Federal agencies to date have not disclosed all costs of attendance at a 2021 climate conference in Glasgow, but they revealed Guilbeault spent $11,426 on airfare.

    According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Guilbeault and five staff billed taxpayers $101,712. Expenses included $12,653 worth of meals, another $37,171 for airfare, and $49,265 for hotels.

    Accounts show Guilbeault spent $22,023 to attend the conference, including $11,246 in airfare. He also spent $8,327 on hotels and $2,034 on meals.

    On his return from Glasgow, the environment minister invoked disaster imagery to illustrate climate change.

    “When the roof is leaking over our heads, we must repair it, and then we can think about what to have for dinner,” Guilbeault told the House of Commons on May 17, 2021.

    “We can, and we must mitigate the impacts of climate change.”

  12. Historically the VARES Report show less than 1% of actual injuries and deaths.

    Moderna clinical trial COVID vaccine participant, Olivia Teseniar, revealed on The Highwire a shocking fact about the Moderna trials: her serious vaccine injury was never reported to the FDA and did not appear in pages of their study.

    Teseniar developed a painful, swollen shoulder shortly after receiving her second shot with swollen lymph nodes in her injected arm. She was later diagnosed with Lymphoma followed by Leukaemia. Moderna failed to cover the costs of her treatments and failed to mention her injury in their report to the FDA when applying for Emergency Use Authorization. Equally as concerning, the doctor who submitted a report of her injury to VARES (the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Reporting System) later found that there was no report under her report number and VARES has not responded as to why her report is no longer in the system.

  13. QAnon Shaman” Jacob Chansley’s Former Atty Claims Government “Chose Not To Disclose” Exculpatory Evidence to Chansley that Aired by Tucker Carlson

    On Monday night, Tucker Carlson released shocking footage from January 6th, 2021 that showed “QAnon Shaman” Jacob Chansley walking through the halls of the Capitol with two Capitol Police officers in tow. At one point, one of the officers takes point, appears to try opening a door or elevator, and then turns and leads Chansley in another direction. Later in the video clips, Chansley is seen walking past nine police officers gathered in a hallway intersection. Chansley and his police escorts walk right past the nine officers without any resistance.

    This new video evidence is downright shocking, however, the more shocking part is that this evidence was withheld from Chansley’s legal team.

    On Tuesday, the Washington Post published an article focused on the Capitol Police chief calling Tucker’s claims “filled with offensive and misleading conclusions.” But buried in this article was a reference to Jacob Chansley’s own legal defense team:

    On Tuesday, the Washington Post published an article focused on the Capitol Police chief calling Tucker’s claims “filled with offensive and misleading conclusions.” But buried in this article was a reference to Jacob Chansley’s own legal defense team:

    Albert Watkins, Chansley’s attorney through sentencing in November 2021, said he had been provided many hours of video by prosecutors, but not the footage which Carlson aired Monday night. He said he had not seen video of Chansley walking through Capitol hallways with multiple Capitol Police officers.

    “What’s deeply troubling,” Watkins said Tuesday, “Is the fact that I have to watch Tucker Carlson to find video footage which the government has, but chose not to disclose, despite the absolute duty to do so. Despite being requested in writing to do so, multiple times.” He no longer represents Chansley and said he could not comment on what remedy might be sought for the defendant. Watkins suggested that all Jan. 6 defendants who were convicted based on video from the riot should have their convictions vacated.

    This very well could be a violation of the Brady Rule. According to the Cornell Law School Legal Information Institute:

    The Brady rule, named after Brady v. Maryland, requires prosecutors to disclose material, exculpatory information in the government’s possession to the defense. Brady material, or the evidence the prosecutor is required to disclose under this rule, includes any information favorable to the accused which may reduce a defendant’s potential sentence, go against the credibility of an unfavorable witness, or otherwise allow a jury to infer against the defendant’s guilt.

    Albert Watkins no longer represents Chansley, so it is unclear if this evidence can or will be used to appeal the previous decision or motion for a mistrial based on withheld evidence. Chansley is serving a 41-month sentence upon his conviction.

    Yesterday, The Gateway Pundit reported that a “non-violent” defendant, Sara Carpenter, a retired NYPD policewoman, was denied a continuance in order to allow her legal team to comb through the hours of J6 footage just released to counsel. US District Court Judge James Boasberg was cited as saying Carpenter’s request was “certainly not a frivolous request by any means” but still sided with prosecution and ordered the trial begin this week as scheduled.

    • What a terrible disgrace that this man is locked away. Black Lives Matter yo yos / Soros funded crazies are out there doing what they do best – never arrested, and this poor guy who was a navy man is locked away. Absolutely disgraceful. For God’s sake, who in their right would believe there was an insurrection without guns????

      • People who have been taught to stop thinking and allow the Government to decide everything.

  15. Insurance Analyst: “The More Doses You Have On Average In A Region . . . The Bigger Increase In Mortality That Region Has Had” (VIDEO)
    By Promoted Post Mar. 8, 2023 2:45 pm34 Comments

    Insurance analyst Josh Stirling just released bombshell data on the connection between COVID-19 vaccines and “all-cause mortality.”
    His results are stunning.
    Watch (transcript of highlights below):

    From the video:
    “But no matter which way you do it, what you end up seeing is: The chart goes, the line that you create, a regression line goes up into the right. Which is to simply to say that the more doses on average you have in a region within the United States, the bigger increase in mortality that region has had in 2022 when compared to 2021.
    And so that is a aggregate statistical tool that largely — I mean, it exactly confirms– the conclusion out of the UK data. It’s a different way of doing it. It’s a totally different data set. But ultimately it leads to a

  16. Impeachable Offense

    In July 2021, Joe Biden abandoned Afghanistan’s Bagram Airfield in the middle of the night after nearly 20 years of US occupation. The Biden regime shut off the electricity and slipped away in the night without notifying the base’s Afghan commander, who discovered the Americans’ secret departure more than two hours after they left.

    The Taliban quickly took control of Bagram Air Base, which is only 30 miles north of Kabul on August 15th and released thousands of terrorists held at its prison.

    The Biden regime, Mark Milley and the Afghans left the Taliban military equipment, uniforms, rations and even sports drinks for the Taliban terrorists.

    Later TGP reported that the ISIS suicide bomber who murdered 13 US servicemen and women and 169 Afghans was released by the Taliban from the Bagram Base prison in July.

    ISIS suicide bomber Abdul Rehman was incarcerated at the Bagram prison for the past four years until he was set free by the Taliban terrorists.

    170Sgt. Tyler Vargas-Andrews, a U.S. Marine Corps sniper who served i Afghanistan during the surrender to the Taliban forces, testified before Congress on Wednesday. Vargas told Congress that he was denied permission to shoot the suicide bomber in Afghanistan that killed 13 service members and over 170 civilians.

  17. Tucker Carlson Reveals Precisely How He Discovered the J6 Committee Members Were Lying (VIDEO)

    TruthGettrGab

    Tucker Carlson on his show Monday immediately exposed how many of the narratives propagated by the January 6 commission were vicious lies.

    Among these lies were Brian Sicknick being murdered by protesters, (Tucker showed he was unharmed), Jacob Chansley aka “The Qanon Shaman” committing sedition (he marched peacefully throughout the Capitol), and Ray Epps being a patriotic whistleblower (he perjured himself before the committee.

    But how did Tucker conclusively know the January 6th Committee members were perpetuating a fraud on the American public? He gave the revealing and “shocking” answer in an exclusive interview with Glenn Beck today.

    WATCH (Twitchy was first to uncover the interview):

    Beck: You called the J6 Committee liars…Make the case that they’re liars, they didn’t just fib a bit. These are full-fledged liars.

    Tucker: Well, that was the stunning part to me. I’ve been in Washington, DC my whole life…so I kind of had a root level trust in government. The whole thing can’t be fraudulent because I know the people who worked there…

    So I was shocked to learn they were lying intentionally. We have a very specific way of knowing that. When J6 Committee researchers looked at video they bookmarked it, an electronic mark on the video they watched so we know what they watched.

    So there is video Chansley (QANON Shamam), Ray Epps, and Brian Sicknick that we know they watched that was not included in the (Jan.6) report, never mentioned in the hearings…This video which overturns the story they were telling, they saw but hid… that just blew my mind.

    Personal information of hundreds of lawmakers and staffers was stolen after a major security breach of DC Health Link.

    “I have been informed by the United States Capitol Police and DC Health Link of a data breach impacting Members and staff,” CAO Catherine Szpindor wrote.

    “DC Health Link suffered a significant data breach yesterday potentially exposing the Personal Identifiable Information of thousands of enrollees,” she wrote.

    The size and scope of the breach is not known.

    The FBI is investigating the breach.

    Szpindor continued, “While we do not yet know whether other enrollees have been compromised, out of abundance of caution you may wish to freeze your family’s credit at the three major credit bureaus.”

    “Speaker McCarthy and Democratic Leader Jeffries have formally requested additional information from DC Health Link on what data was taken, who was impacted, and what steps they are taking to protect House victims of this breach,” Chief Administrative Officer Catherine Szpindor wrote.

    The candid recording of this coffee shop meeting shows a willful effort by the President of the Frisco ISD School Board Rene Archambault to censor the voices of the constituents in her jurisdiction.

  20. The Florida Standard

    BREAKING: Biden Administration Loses Major Immigration Case to Florida
    A federal judge orders Biden to follow U.S. Immigration laws after Florida proved in court that the border chaos was intentionally engineered by his administration and policies.

    Text the word ‘Florida’ to (813) 733-5278 to receive more updates straight to your phone on whats going on in the Sunshine State.
    TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA — Today, a federal judge sided with Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, ruling that President Joe Biden is responsible for the border crisis claiming the president effectively turned the southwest border into “little more than a speedbump.”

    In a scathing 100-plus-page opinion, U.S. District Judge T. Kent Wetherell ruled that Biden’s catch-and-release policy is unlawful. The judge gave the administration seven days to comply with federal immigration law.

    “Today’s ruling affirms what we have known all along, President Biden is responsible for the border crisis and his unlawful immigration policies make this country less safe. A federal judge is NOW ordering Biden to follow the law, and his administration should immediately begin securing the border to protect the American people,” Attorney General Ashley Moody told The Florida Standard.

    The final order from Judge Wetherell of the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of Florida states:

    “The Court finds in favor of Florida because, as detailed below, the evidence establishes that Defendants have effectively turned the Southwest Border into a meaningless line in the sand and little more than a speedbump for aliens flooding into the country by prioritizing ‘alternatives to detention’ over actual detention and by releasing more than a million aliens into the country – on ‘parole’ or pursuant to the exercise of ‘prosecutorial discretion’ under a wholly inapplicable statute – without even initiating removal proceedings.”

    BIDEN ADMIN WITHHELD EVIDENCE

    The case went to trial in January and lasted a week. On day one of the trial, the Florida Attorney General’s legal team presented bombshell evidence that the federal government wrongfully withheld until just before the trial. Uncovered Department of Homeland Security emails contained information that the Biden administration’s destruction of the Trump administration’s immigration structures left the U.S. Border Patrol with no other options except to release almost all immigrants encountered.

    The final order also states:

    “Collectively, these actions were akin to posting a flashing ‘Come In, We’re Open’ sign on the southern border. The unprecedented ‘surge’ of aliens that started arriving at the Southwest Border almost immediately after President Biden took office and that has continued unabated over the past two years was a predictable consequence of these actions.”

    And, following:

    “Thus, like a child who kills his parents and then seeks pity for being an orphan, it is hard to take Defendants’ claim that they had to release more aliens into the country because of limited detention capacity seriously when they have elected not to use one of the tools provided by Congress in §1225(b)(2)(C) and they have continued to ask for less detention capacity in furtherance of their prioritization of ‘alternatives to detention’ over actual detention.”

  21. We’re Done” – Newsom Shuts Walgreens Out of California Business, Won’t Renew $54 Million Contract Over Decision to Stop Selling Abortion Pills in Some States
    By Cristina Laila Mar. 8, 2023 6:40 pm349 Comments

    California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom cut ties with Walgreens over its decision to stop selling abortion pills.

    Walgreens said it would stop distributing abortion pills in 20 states in response to legal battles spearheaded by Republican attorneys general.

    “[Walgreens] said it will not dispense mifepristone, the first of two drugs in the medication abortion process, in 20 states following a February 1 letter from GOP attorneys general in those states.” CNN reported.

    “We intend to be a certified pharmacy and will distribute Mifepristone only in those jurisdictions where it is legal and operationally feasible,” Walgreens said in a statement.

    ItsTheVibe
    Newsom responded by shutting Walgreens out of California state business.

    Walgreens is the second-largest pharmacy chain in the US behind CVS.

    Gavin Newsom will not renew a $54 million contract with the pharmacy store chain.

    “We’re done,” Newsom said.
