    • SAFE AND EFFECTIVE: South Korea to COMPENSATE Deaths 90 Days After Covid Shot
      By Guest Contributor Sep. 13, 2023 8:45 am20 Comments

      This article was written by Swedish independent journalist Peter Imanuelsen, also known as PeterSweden. You can follow him at PeterSweden.com.

      Families to all people who have died within 90 days of receiving a covid-19 vaccination will be compensated by the government.

      The country of South Korea has announced that they will be compensating the families of ALL people who die within 90 days of covid vaccination, regardless if the vaccination itself has been confirmed to be the cause of death.

      Families of people who have died will be eligible to get up to $22,500 in compensation money.

      “Korea was able to achieve a higher inoculation rate compared with the rest of the world because people trusted the state and went to get vaccinated…In this regard, it is the state’s responsibility to tackle the blind spot in helping out those who fell victim to the vaccination policy.” said Rep. Park Dae-chul of the ruling government party.

      And here is something very interesting I found when it comes to side effects that we don’t really get to hear about in the mainstream media here.

      Turns out that South Korea has recognized 11 different types of side effects caused by the covid shots! This includes anaphylaxis, myocarditis and pericarditis.

      They also list another 15 symptoms like Bell’s Palsy and uterine bleeding as potential side effects of the shot.

      South Korea has had 96,000 complaints from people who have reported side effects from the shots, and nearly 30% of those complaints have been accepted by the government.

      Do you realize what this means?

      It means that governments are well aware of the side effects from the shots. Remember how people who questioned the safety of the shots were called “crazy conspiracy theorists”?

      Already last year doctors were sounding the alarm after a mysterious rise in excess deaths.

      Not only that, but we have also been seeing a mysterious collapse in birth rates after the roll out of the mRNA shots.

  7. Tokelahoma’: Red State Becomes Wild West of Weed Where Chinese Nationals Own 75% of the Farms

    MUSKOGEE, OK – Since the doors began opening for legalized marijuana, a number of states have joined the movement. That includes Oklahoma, which has become one of the easier places to grow or sell marijuana.

    Perhaps no state has been as radically transformed by the legalization of medical marijuana as Oklahoma. With the number of growers, sellers, and users skyrocketing across the state, it’s no surprise it’s being called the Wild West of Weed.

    This Bible Belt town of 37,000 is now a marijuana Mecca, with the scent drifting downwind and entrepreneurs known as “Big Papa” and “Boss Lady” riding high on the profits. Ron and BeaAnn Epperson put off retirement to run their 24-hour weed dispensary.

    “For our terminal patients, we offer this for nothing. There’s a lot of people who depend on this medicine,” said Ron Epperson, owner of Big Papa’s Okie Toke.

    It’s clear that many other people are

    • Oklahoma has 30 times more regulated medical cannabis than is needed to meet the demand of licensed patients…

      According to the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics… nearly 75% of Oklahoma’s marijuana farms are owned by Chinese nationals, buying up more than a million acres of farmland to grow black-market weed.

    Niger on the Brink of War: Arrest of French Official Ignites Tensions – Macron Does Not Recognize the Junta Leaders – Nigerien Military Says France Massing Troops and Equipment in Neighboring Countries
    By Paul Serran Sep. 13, 2023 7:45 am17 Comments

    The situation is post-coup Niger seems to be headed to a military showdown between the Sahel nations (Mali and Burkina Faso have vowed to help Niger) and the Western powers France and US, who have troops in Nigerien territory, aligned with the ECOWAS nations African ‘democracies’.

    The French ignored the junta’s ultimatums to remove both its diplomatic mission and its military troops from Niger, but are now alarmed by an arrest.

    France’s Foreign Ministry stated that a French official has been arrested, and called for the junta to ‘immediately release him’.

    Associated Press reported:

    “The ministry said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that Stephane Jullien, counsellor for French citizens abroad — a non-diplomatic, elected post — was arrested last Friday, and called for his ‘immediate release’.”

    French President Emmanuel Macron ordered the ambassador to stay at his post, despite being ordered to leave. This arrest will raise already high tensions between France and Niger, its former colony.

    “The Foreign Ministry did not elaborate on where and how Jullien was arrested or whether officials in Paris knew where he was being held. It said only that France was following the situation closely and was ‘fully mobilized’ to assure him the protections due to anyone in another country.

    France “calls immediately for his release,” the statement said.”

    The French still have about 1,500 French troops based in Niger ‘to help local forces fight Islamic extremists’. But the cooperation has been suspended since the coup.

    Macron rejected the demand by Niger’s rulers to withdraw troops from the West African nation.

    Bloomberg reported:

    “’If we redeploy, I would do it only at the request of President Bazoum’, Macron said, referring to Niger’s ousted leader, as the G-20 summit wrapped up in New Delhi, India, on Sunday. ‘We don’t recognize any legitimacy in the declarations from the putschists’.

    His comments came after the ruling junta said France was ignoring its request for the 1,500 French troops stationed in Niger to leave the country by Sept. 3. Nigerien and French military officers met earlier this month to discuss a plan for a French troop withdrawal from Niger, a junta spokesman said late Saturday. No progress has been made on implementing the plan, Colonel-Major Amadou Abdramane said in a statement on public broadcaster Tele Sahel.”

    Since the junta ousted President Mohamed Bazoum in July, Macron has said he would back a decision by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to use force to restore democracy.

    And in the last few days, the junta leaders have accused France of ‘gathering forces and equipment’ in several West African countries with a view to launching a ‘military intervention’ against Niamey.

    Al Jazeera reported:

    “Colonel Amadou Abdramane, a spokesman for Niger’s coup leaders, made the claim on national television late on Saturday.

    He said France was continuing to deploy its forces in member countries of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) as ‘part of preparations for an aggression against Niger, which it is planning in collaboration with this community organisation’.

    French ‘military cargo aircraft have enabled large quantities of war material and equipment to be unloaded in Senegal, Ivory Coast and Benin, to name but a few’, he said.”

    The United States, which also has about 1,100 soldiers in Niger, has begun to relocate troops ‘as a precaution’ to the central city of Agadez, the US Department of Defense said this week.

  10. Libertarian National Committee Moves to File for Conservatorships for Biden and McConnell, Citing “Clear Incapacitation, Mental Lapses, and Deficiencies in Decision Making”
    By Jim H?ft Sep. 13, 2023 8:15 am190 Comments

    The Libertarian National Committee has filed for conservatorships for both White House resident Joe Biden and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Citing “clear incapacitation, mental lapses, and deficiencies in decision making” evident in recent well-publicized instances, the committee argues that neither man is fit to serve the American people.

    The Libertarian Party argues that both Biden (80) and McConnell (81) have shown serious impairments in their ability to “receive and evaluate information effectively, make decisions, and communicate,” suggesting that they lack the capacity to represent either themselves or the American public.

    With both the Democratic and Republican parties unwilling to take action against either leader, the Libertarian Party has taken it upon themselves to address the issue.

  12. Biden’s White House will send letter to CNN, NY Times and other top outlets demanding them to probe ‘lies’ behind GOP’s plan to impeach president
    By Stephen M. Lepore For Dailymail.Com
    01:48 EDT 13 Sep 2023 , updated 07:14 EDT 13 Sep 2023

    House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced an official impeachment inquiry on Tuesday over allegations of corruption and involvement in son Hunter’s business dealings, setting off fiery reactions from Democrats.

    Ian Sams, a special assistant to the president and senior advisor to the White House Counsel’s Office, penned a letter to both conservative and liberal-leaning outlets, slated to be distributed Wednesday in an apparent attempt to influence their coverage. Among outlets targeted are CNN, the New York Times, the Associated Press and Fox news.

    ‘It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies,’ Sams wrote.

    Sams added the impeachment inquiry should ‘set off alarm bells for news organizations,’ but commentators both left and ring-wing have condemned the interference.

    Journalist Matthew Keys tweeted: ‘This is not okay. The White House should not be encouraging, influencing or interfering in the editorial strategies of America’s newsrooms, including CNN and the New York Times.

  13. California climate bill clears Senate, governor Newsom to have final say
    Story by By Isla Binnie •
    17h

    Reuters) – California’s state Senate on Tuesday approved a bill requiring large companies to report their carbon footprints, sending the bill to Governor Gavin Newsom who must decide whether to get ahead of the federal government in setting corporate climate rules.

    “A major step for climate action, requiring large corporations to disclose their entire carbon footprint – is on its way to the Governor!” Democratic Senator Scott Wiener wrote on social media site X after the chamber voted 27-8 to pass the bill.

    It would require public and private companies that operate in California and earn more than $1 billion a year to do the accounting, Wiener said.

    The California bill was supported by several big companies including Apple, Ikea and Microsoft, but it was opposed by the Chamber of Commerce business group which called it “onerous.”

    WEDNESDAY, SEP 13, 2023 – 09:55 AM
    In the overnight and morning hours of Wednesday (local time) a major attack has ensued on Russia’s key Black Sea naval port of Sevastopol. Multiple social media videos emerged showing massive blazes at the Sevastopol shipyard, with possible deaths, and at least 24 people being reported injured.

    Initial reporting in Reuters and CNN strongly points to a missile attack, based on statements by Sevastopol governor Mikhail Razvozhaev, who said “Our enemies attacked Sevastopol” and that “The air defense was at work.”

  15. Revenge of the Bums
    What kind of government can there be that produces such diseased leadership?

    By Matthew Boose
    September 13, 2023
    The overzealous persecution of Donald Trump and his supporters is an act of bitterest revenge. It is the bums, the government parasites who have never created a single dollar of value, who depend for their living on graft and extortionate taxation, saying in one voice, “No, you can’t have dynamic leaders who prioritize you. You’re stuck with us.”

    The worst excesses of the bums are to be seen in the cities where they have total sway. New York City, the cultural and financial capital of the world, has been reduced to a dirty, makeshift shantytown, filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of the Third World. The dopey mayor, Eric Adams, is pleading for someone to save the city from itself, as it shells out billions in taxpayer dollars in the deranged suicidal race to provide food, shelter, and clothing for the indigent masses endlessly pouring across the border, who have doubled the homeless population in a single year. There is an element of poetic justice to it all, and yet, the city is running out of space, and the arrivals won’t stop coming. There are only so many luxury hotels and sidewalks with which to fill the sorry, suckling orphans of the uncivilized world.

    No; sooner or later America must do its part. No town is beyond the reach of the ever-expanding trash heap; seated at the top of which is Biden, the chief bum, who flung open the gates, and bid the rest of the world to come. Biden has lined his family’s pockets; he and his fellow bums will endure the “transition” of America into a foreign dumpster just fine. For those without political connections, it’s a desperate scramble for higher ground, to escape the general dilapidation wrought by Biden and his real constituents, the rapists, murderers, looters, vagrants, anti-white terrorists, gender-bending, pedophile freaks, and endless, weltering, noisy, entitled stream of humanity relentlessly hammering at the gates, bringing violence, disorder, and commotion to the communities that have the misfortune of receiving them.

    What were formerly known as the “citizens” of America are under immense strain, having become, without their knowledge, the adopted parents of every poor waif in the southern hemisphere. The proletarianized “middle class” is imploding under the pressure of inflation; the basic necessities of life, food, energy, and shelter, have all shot up in price; most are working multiple jobs to cover the bills, while competing with their foreign replacements, their unwanted, adopted children, for a shrinking pie of wealth and property. The fake “media” trumpet the bogus miracles of “Bidenomics” while passing over the venal dealing of Biden’s family in uncanny silence. Biden and the criminal bums pour billions of tax dollars into Ukraine, the great hope of democracy.

    The stakes of this war could not be higher; victory means the preservation of America’s own system of government, which is to say, the welfare of the welfare classes, of the rioters and looters and deranged vagrants who threaten to smash and steal at any moment, and the leeches in power, their patrons; of the constant waves of suckling orphans, which must go on forever; it means the preservation of a government that takes half the wealth of the productive classes; and desperately desires to disarm them; of a government that forces its people to constantly flee the dangers and depredations it creates, and live in constant fear of disruption and anarchy; that protects and rewards criminals like Biden, his decadent family, and the racial fanatics who terrorized the country three summers ago; that crushes its political enemies, even daring to jail an American president, under color of law; a government full of cant and wind, a showy, hectoring, oppressive, sham, embodied in that bilious, screaming wraith, Joe Biden.

    What kind of government can there be, that produces such diseased leadership, such rotting fruit as are cropping up everywhere? It must be a very late government, a degenerate and distant offspring of its just original. When all is said and done, Biden’s legacy will be the final destruction of the legitimacy of America’s government, of the very law, which has been perverted from its good purpose, to establish peace and justice and liberty, toward the singular end of destroying the enemies of the governing classes. This government exists, not to represent the people, but to engorge itself on the decayed remnants of what their ancestors built; it is a thing to be resented and patiently endured, if it cannot be overcome.

  16. DONALD TRUMP
    Trump Taught Republicans How To Win
    It Is Time They Follow His Lead

    By Olivia Ingrassia
    September 13, 2023
    As House Republicans have settled back into Washington, D.C. this week fresh off a month-long hiatus, all eyes will turn to whether the party in control of the lower chamber can muster any resistance against the current regime running roughshod over the nation and blatantly interfering with the upcoming presidential election.

    Since Congress embarked upon their month-long recess, the (essentially) presumptive GOP nominee was indicted twice, once by the Department of Justice which House Republicans continue to fund, and another time in a jurisdiction overseen by a Republican Governor with Republican-majorities in both chambers of the state assembly. To add insult to injury, the trial dates for President Trump’s litany of cases have been set conspicuously near the days voters will be heading to the polls for the first time during the 2024 election season, incontrovertible evidence of election interference (if not the regime’s outright mockery of the Democracy they purport to care so deeply about).

    Even still, President Trump, though he certainly bears the majority of the burden, is not the only one feeling the wrath of the weaponized government. The Biden administration is targeting pro-life activists, traditional Catholic parishes have found themselves on FBI watchlists, and hundreds of people who exercised their right to assembly continue to languish in the DC prison, denied their due process rights. Moreover, for those who have praised the integrity of local Republican-controlled state governments as bulwarks against the excesses of a Democrat-controlled federal or state government, recent malicious prosecutions occurring within the confines of ostensible “red-havens” of Georgia and Texas summarily repudiate that proposition. Eighteen other Republicans – from esteemed lawyers, constitutional scholars, public servants, and some private citizens – are embroiled in criminal charges, unable to look for refuge to the Georgia Governor, who seems to place greater value in the interests shared by those who frequent the same Davos events he attends, rather than those held by the people who elected him. A not dissimilar case is occurring in Texas, where Attorney General Ken Paxton must defend himself in an impeachment trial for, principally, the original sin of defeating a member of the Bush family in his recent election. Make no mistake: supporting Trump is now an indictable offense which establishment Republicans are cheering on.

    Indeed, the House Republicans are outnumbered – the Trump-aligned members even more so – but they are not powerless. Recall, when the left controlled only the lower chamber of Congress, they tactfully used the same relatively limited power they had to stall, impede upon, and drain resources from the incumbent Trump administration. This month marks four years since then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi initiated the first of two impeachments against the duly elected President Trump, in a move that was wholly manufactured and void ab initio (the GOP-controlled Senate was not going to convict the President). However, one could argue that the spectacle was a success insofar as the process then, as it remains today, was the punishment.

    Now that roles are reversed, Republicans have been lethargic at best, and complicit at worst: they granted Biden a victory on the debt ceiling agreement, enabled the endless funding of the Ukraine war while families in Maui continue to suffer, have left unchecked the worst border invasion in our country’s history, and have permitted – if not facilitated – the politicized prosecutions of Biden’s to-be opponent. An opposition party worth its salt would not lament its relative lack of power, but instead use its significant authority to do everything feasible to mount some sort of strategic opposition.

    For what it’s worth, the House majority campaigned on stopping the “weaponization of government,” unmasking the Bidens’ corruption, issuing subpoenas to FBI officials, and stopping the “blank checks” to Ukraine. This time, though, voters were told this wasn’t bluster: to prove it, the power-sharing agreement for which twenty members valiantly fought in January – including but not limited to a single-member motion to vacate the speaker – were supposed to serve as leverage to ensure the leadership would keep their word. The new House majority promised to change the game in Washington, and for good reason too: this current House has been served on a silver platter issues to tackle on behalf of the American people. Still, nine months in and the country has precipitously worsened since Speaker McCarthy was elected on the fifteenth ballot. The hour is late. It is past time they begin wielding the power they have. This can be done in multiple ways.

    Some have floated the potential of a Church-style committee to confront the egregious actions of this administration – and the regime more broadly. The House could investigate the circumstances which “arguably involve the most massive attack on free speech in United States history,” pertaining to the federal government’s collusion with big tech. As once promised, January 6th tapes should be released to the public. McCarthy once demanded the January 6th Committee preserve all records, which did not happen. What will his recourse be? McCarthy also promised that the debt-ceiling agreement would put Republicans in a prime spot with the appropriations negotiations. Seal the border, release the January 6th tapes, withhold funding – if a government shutdown must happen, so be it. All Republicans should vocally join the campaign pressuring Brian Kemp to grant Georgia State Senator Colton Moore’s calls for an emergency session to investigate and defund Fani Willis (and ultimately remove the prosecutor) and continue to delegitimize each of the indictments levied against the party leader. It goes without saying, but Republicans in the House must promptly begin impeachments of Biden, Garland, and Mayorkas. Not only are the proceedings necessary, but they also drain the administration of resources otherwise used for their agenda in the year leading up to reelection.

    The failure of the Republican party to prevail in election cycles since 2016 is because of the party establishment’s lethargy – a party which has been granted power by voters time and again, yet continue to squander it at every turn. Trump authored the winning playbook for Republicans in the twenty-first century when he resuscitated the party from life support in 2016. Without Trump, prospect of a Republican nationwide electoral victory would be all but lost, the Blue Wall insurmountable. Even still, it was Republicans who obstructed the Trump administration – It was at the hand of an establishment Republican that the years-long quest of repealing and replacing Obamacare was destroyed. Republicans stood in the way of President Trump receiving the requested funding for a border wall, and Republicans continue today to stand by – incapable of effectively wielding their power – in the face of blatant weaponization of the justice system.

    Trump won the election the first time without the party’s institutional support. If necessary, he may have to do it again. But the “party” as it exists faces a time for choosing: either adopt his lead to reflect the will of the people, or remain idle as the destruction of this country continues untrammeled.

    The issue appears to have begun on Sunday, according to The Associated Press, but as of this writing, the MGM resort website is still down due to the attack.

    MGM took to X, formerly Twitter, on Monday to share a pair of statements about the cyber attack that was affecting its hotels and casinos.

    MGM Resorts recently identified a cybersecurity issue affecting some of the Company’s systems. Promptly after detecting the issue, we quickly began an investigation with assistance from leading external cybersecurity experts,” the statement read. “We also notified law enforcement and took prompt action to protect our systems and data, including shutting down certain systems.

  21. GOP Rep. Tom Emmer Introduces Legislation to Prohibit Federal Reserve from Creating Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)
    By Jim H?ft Sep. 13, 2023 4:00 pm135 Comments

    House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (MN-06) reintroduced his flagship legislation, the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) Anti-Surveillance State Act, signaling a strong countermove against the Biden regime’s overreach into Americans’ financial privacy.

    Emmer has rallied a significant bloc of 50 original Republican co-sponsors, underscoring the concern among conservatives about the implications of a government-issued digital currency.

    At the core of this legislation is the principle that a Central Bank Digital Currency, unlike decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, would give the federal government unprecedented powers to monitor and control individual financial transactions.

    “The administration has made it clear: President Biden is willing to compromise the American people’s right to financial privacy for a surveillance-style CBDC. That’s why I’m reintroducing my landmark legislation to put a check on unelected bureaucrats and ensure the United States’ digital currency policy upholds our values of privacy, individual sovereignty, and free-market competitiveness,” Whip Emmer said in a statement.

    “If not designed to be open, permissionless, and private – emulating cash – a government-issued CBDC is nothing more than a CCP-style surveillance tool that would be used to undermine the American way of life,” Emmer added.

    While the bill is Republican-led, its implications have garnered wide-ranging support. Heritage Action Acting Executive Director, Ryan Walker, stated, “Thorough anti-CBDC legislation is critical for safeguarding Americans’ financial privacy in the face of potential surveillance, control, and political intimidation. We commend Congressman Emmer’s sweeping bill to prohibit a CBDC issued both directly from the Fed to Americans and indirectly via banks or other intermediaries.”

    David McIntosh, President of Club for Growth, also offered a strong endorsement: “We fully support this new legislation which ensures America doesn’t go down the China road and the Federal Reserve never develops a CBDC.”

    Prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC directly to individuals, ensuring the Fed cannot mobilize itself into a retail bank able to collect personal financial data on Americans.
    Prohibit the Fed from indirectly issuing a CBDC to individuals through an intermediary, preventing the Fed from launching a retail CBDC through our two-tier financial system.
    Prohibit the Fed from using any CBDC to implement monetary policy, ensuring the Federal Reserve cannot use a CBDC as a tool to control the American economy. The legislation protects innovation and any future development of digital cash.
    According to the press release, “Whip Emmer first introduced the leading Republican bill to address central bank digital currencies in January of 2022. The bill is now co-sponsored by 50 of Whip Emmer’s Republican colleagues, including Members of the Financial Services Committee, Representatives French Hill (AR-02), Warren Davidson (OH-08), Byron Donalds (FL-19), Pete Sessions (TX-32), Young Kim (CA-40), William Timmons (SC-04), Ralph Norman (SC-05), Barry Loudermilk (GA-11), Bryan Steil (WI-01), Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05), Mike Flood (NE-01), Bill Posey (FL-08), Mike Lawler (NY-17), Andy Ogles (TN-05) and Ann Wagner (MO-02).”

    During the press conference, Emmer clarified the intentions behind his legislation.

    “Recent actions from the Biden administration have made it clear that they are not only itching to create a digital dollar, but they’re willing to trade [the] right to financial privacy for a surveillance-style CBDC,” Emmer announced. “This bill ensures the future of crypto is in the hands of the American people, not the administrative state.”
