    Remember this line.

    If I were a big player in the information battle space I would create my own opinion leaders. They would be like pied pipers to whom I fed information and controlled. They would compete with organic pied pipers, countering or diverting the natural flow of truth in the most subtle ways so to be conspicuous only by their sheer brilliance. To all but very few skeptics they would be believable.

    Doubters, such as Diana West, would be suspicious because maybe they were TOO YOUNG, for example, to have ALL THE ANSWERS. They would be just TOO SMOOTH to not be scripted. They would also be too expert on TOO MANY SUBJECTS. They would rise into the public sphere TOO FAST. They could have weird histories such as exiling themselves to Chile at a very young age because they were SO COGNIZANT OF EVERYTHING.

    I would engineer my pied pipers so they could fool natural pied pipers, such as Chris Martenson, who I like very much, into following them. This way I could capture and lead away thousands, or millions of people, from the target I don’t want them to see.

  2. Hohmann: The Second American Civil War Is Starting
    by Jim Hoft Feb. 19, 2024 7:30 am653 Comments

    American society is spinning out of control: What you need to do now to prepare for massive civil unrest and violence

    It doesn’t take any brilliant analytical mind to discern that American society is losing its rudder and that there are powerful forces seeking to divide us at a critical juncture, provoking us to civil war.

    After decades of ideological attacks on our gatekeeping institutions by globalists with no allegiance to this country, America’s sense of identity and purpose is dangerously close to dead.

    A country without a cohesive identity is a country ripe for manipulation, division and ultimately war among its factions.

    When the elites feel their power slipping, which I believe they do, that’s when they adopt a “burn it all down” mentality. Gaslighting in the media, finger pointing and scapegoating all play into the strategy and we’ve seen plenty of that over the last few years.

    But it’s not just America. It’s Western civilization as a whole that is withering. And when civilizations implode, everyone suffers. The good, the bad, and the indifferent.

    Many of my Christian friends say not to worry, everything will work itself out just fine. God’s in control. I read history and see that just because God is in control doesn’t mean that His followers won’t suffer persecution, even to the point of death.

    But there is a difference between dying for your faith and dying just because you walked into an unfortunate situation in a public space that you thought was safe. Maybe it always was safe before, but now isn’t. Or, maybe you discover the hard way that your home appeared as low-hanging fruit for a professional criminal or gang of criminals. They attack and you’re caught off guard.

    What I’m saying is, the world is about to become a much more dangerous place, both at home and abroad.

    What starts in Europe eventually comes here, and civil uprisings are gaining steam across the European continent. France, Belgium, Germany, The Netherlands, Italy and Spain have all seen tremendous civil unrest as people are waking up to the global con being waged against them by power-hungry globalist Luciferians using the climate as a their excuse to drastically curtail freedoms of speech, press, assembly and movement, not to mention privacy invasions.

    Farmers have been protesting against globalist climate policies in all of the above countries. And migrant populations have been also getting restless.

    In the Netherlands last night, there were migrant riots with a little-reported connection to the United States. You won’t find any of this reported in the mainstream press but keep reading and you will see what I’m talking about on how now is the time to wake up and prepare for what’s coming.

    At least four police officers were hurt during a riot that erupted on the streets outside The Hague on Saturday night, February 17, after two rival groups of Eritrean migrants clashed following a political disagreement.

    Rioters torched police cars and a bus, and Dutch police officers were forced to use tear gas to regain control of the area.

    Dozens of rioters were filmed surrounding the Opera Conference Hall in the Netherlands, as multiple police vans raced to the scene.

    Another clip also showed the aftermath. The building had several smashed windows and parked vehicles were set on fire. The street was left looking like a war zone.

    According to The Hague Municipality spokesman Robin Middel, a fight broke out between two groups of Eritreans that got “seriously out of hand.”

    Police said that during the riots, two officers sustained injuries to their hand and another to her teeth. A fourth was hit by a police car in the chaos.

    Independent journalist Andy Ngo reported on X Saturday night that over 200 Eritrean migrants were holding a sympathy protest in Charlotte, North Carolina, for their brothers overseas and that protest also turned violent.

    The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department confirmed Ngo’s report of violence breaking out in North Carolina’s largest city.

    So, you can add this to the growing list of American cities experiencing migrant violence. And it’s only going to get worse until we start seeing mass deportations. But I don’t hear any politicians talking much about mass deportations, do you? So don’t expect things to improve.

    One other city where migrant crime is raging is the nation’s largest, New York City.

    Violent illegals have formed gangs and are making their presence known across the Big Apple, and the police are just now starting to form a response. But they’re fighting a losing battle, because the Soros prosecutors working in New York are reportedly letting the criminal migrant gang members back out on the streets as soon as they get arrested.

    Now turn to Ohio, where earlier this month Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones announced he was making some major changes in his department to prepare for a future of intense gang-related migrant crimes and potential terrorist attacks. He is acutely aware of the 37,000 Chinese nationals who crossed into the U.S. from Mexico last year seeking asylum. Another 20,000 have entered already in 2024. That’s a 57,000-man Chinese army assembled here inside America, potentially forming sleeper cells and awaiting their orders to attack. Author and China expert Gordon Chang recently wrote about this in an article for the Gatestone Institute.

    But back to the Butler County Sheriff.

    WCPO in Cincinatti reports:

    Jones announced the changes after getting back to Butler County from a National Sheriff Association meeting in Washington D.C. where he said they heard from the FBI director on terrorism threats.

    “We were told by the FBI director, it’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when,” Jones said.

    He wants to make sure Butler County is prepared so he said he’s equipping every sheriff’s department vehicle with a rifle and a “go bag,” which has extra magazines for the rifles and other necessities.

    Jones also announced he’s working to boost security by looking into drone detection technology for the sheriff’s office.

    “We’re looking at maybe squad training. We train for school shootings, what to do when we get there, mall shootings. We’re going to look at things a little differently,” he said.

    The steps Jones is taking go beyond his department too. He’s working to make sure community members have the tools they need too.

    “We’re going to start training civilians on what to do when disasters hit and emergencies hit,” he said.

    • The Revenge of the Yankees
      How Social Gospel became Social Justice

      Is America disintegrating into anarchy and civil war among races, religions, and regions? Is the country more divided than ever before?

      The answer is no. The social and economic divides among white Northerners and white Southerners, Blacks and whites, Catholics and Protestants and Jews were much more intense in 1920 than they are today in 2020. What has happened is that the formerly unified, mostly Northern mainline Protestant American establishment has – perhaps temporarily – broken down, allowing the actual diversity of interests and opinions in the United States to be expressed rather than suppressed.

      If the emerging woke national establishment has its way, however, that diversity of viewpoints and values will soon be suppressed once again, in favor of an intolerant and exclusive doctrine that greatly resembles the old-time Social Gospel from which it is derived.

  3. China’s Infiltrators: ‘They Are Coming Here to Kill Us’

    by Gordon G. Chang
    February 13, 2024 at 5:00 am

    China’s Communist Party is at this moment putting in place the infrastructure in America to attack America.

    [I]n Reedley, California, near Fresno, authorities found a secret Chinese biological weapons lab with at least 20 pathogens, including the one for Ebola, and almost a thousand mice that had been genetically engineered to spread disease.

    Chinese agents, in addition to hobbling Americans with disease and gunning them down, could bomb power stations, attack military bases, start wildfires, poison reservoirs, or create terror in dozens of ways.

    These tactics come straight out of Unrestricted Warfare, a 1999 book written by two Chinese air force colonels and first published by the PLA Literature and Arts Publishing House in Beijing. The colonels argued that China can and should employ any tactic in attacking a militarily superior United States. Now, Americans can see how Beijing is operationalizing the suggestions in this how-to manual.

    Chinese attackers are already in America, more are arriving by the day, and they are armed.

    Videos posted to X (Twitter) show Chinese migrants firing pistols. One video is of a Chinese female with a sniper rifle.

    https://twitter.com/tiange0018/status/1671671131299020800

    There is no Second Amendment in China, and Chinese citizens are not permitted to possess firearms. So is it possible that the shooters in the videos are merely taking advantage of a new-found freedom in their new home country ?

    Unlikely.

    One of the migrants videoed was in America for only three weeks and arrived in the country with no money and no identification.

    If you had just landed somewhere as a migrant with nothing to your name, you would undoubtedly be preoccupied with finding your next meal, getting a place to live, making a livelihood.

    You would not, within weeks of entering your new homeland, be sharpening your skills to kill.

    You would not be thinking of killing unless… that is what you came to do.

    The videos posted on X depict a sandy location. Blaine Holt, a retired Air Force general living in Idaho, knows Chinese migrants are taking target practice in his state as well.

    “Tens of thousands of military-age men have come across our border and are now in America, organized by group and nationality” Holt told Gatestone this month. “Among them are terrorist and state actors, in particular, members of the People’s Liberation Army of China. As we speak, these actors are training, making plans and obtaining weapons, watching our patterns, and learning our vulnerabilities.”

    “We are vulnerable to attack,” Holt added. “Our enemies eagerly wait.”

    War correspondent Michael Yon and the Rubin brothers of Muckraker.com have documented the presence of dangerous-looking elements — from China, Iran, Syria and Venezuela — among the hordes of migrants traveling up from Central America. Yon and the Rubins have noticed, among other things, that Chinese males of military age are traveling in packs of five to fifteen, are unaccompanied by family members, and are pretending not to speak English. Some of them, on their way to America, have performed Chinese military rituals.

    Federal agents have periodically apprehended border-crossers with terrorist connections, but the surge in migrants from China is taxing law enforcement resources. U.S. Border Patrol chiefs testified last year before the House Homeland Security Committee that they are worried that, due to sheer numbers, migrants with links to the Chinese military and those who are members of the Chinese Communist Party are slipping through background checks.

    Despite warning signs, the Biden administration is not keeping tabs on dangerous-looking elements once they have crossed into America.

    China’s Communist Party is at this moment putting in place the infrastructure in America to attack America. For instance, in Reedley, California, near Fresno, authorities found a secret Chinese biological weapons lab with at least 20 pathogens, including the one for Ebola, and almost a thousand mice that had been genetically engineered to spread disease.

    There are no benign explanations for such a facility.

    Moreover, it is unlikely that the Chinese regime has only one such lab in America.

    It appears that the People’s Liberation Army is planning to spread disease by having its agents transport the mice around the United States with its now many operatives already in place.

    Chinese agents, in addition to hobbling Americans with disease and gunning them down, could bomb power stations, attack military bases, start wildfires, poison reservoirs, or create terror in dozens of ways.

    These tactics come straight out of Unrestricted Warfare, a 1999 book written by two Chinese air force colonels and first published by the PLA Literature and Arts Publishing House in Beijing. The colonels argued that China can and should employ any tactic in attacking a militarily superior United States. Now, Americans can see how Beijing is operationalizing the suggestions in this how-to manual.

    “What are these guys doing here?” Holt asked, referring to the Chinese migrants honing their shooting skills. “They are coming here to kill us.”

  4. South Africa: 4 Afrikaner Activists Arrested for “Protesting While White” Released on Bail as Accused Father and Son Remain in Prison
    by Richard Abelson Feb. 19, 2024 9:15 am62 Comments

    Four Afrikaner activists on trial for the crime of “inciting public violence” were granted bail today in Groblersdal, South Africa, while the farmer and son originally charged with sic’ing a dog on a violent farm worker were not granted bail (Gateway reported).

    YouTuber Willem Petzer (27), Bettereinders co-director Devon Hofmeyr (29), the son of South African country music star Steve Hoymeyr, fellow activist Tewie Wessels (32) and the other Bettereinders co-director Francois van der Merwe were granted bail on Monday.

    The court released them on bail of 5 000 Rand each (approx. $260). The four hugged each other in court after the verdict and prayed together in a circle. The bail hearing was originally scheduled for Thursday but had to be postponed due to electrical blackouts. A Friday hearing was postponed again.

    In the small farming community of Groblersdal, former North Transvaal province, farmer Piet Groenewald (63) and his stepson Stephan Greef (23) are on trial for allegedly sic’ing a dog on a black farm worker Jan. 17. Groenwald and Greef claim the farm worker was drunk and destructive, and attacked them with a panga (machete) and an axe handle. Using dogs against black people is a culturally fraught act in post-Apartheid South Africa.

    Florida Moves to Legalize Self-Defense Against Bear Attacks

    On February 15, 2024, the Florida House passed CS/HB 87: Taking of Bears. The bill passed 88 to 29. It will now be sent to the Florida Senate. The bill has been prompted by a burgeoning black bear population in Florida, which has increased exponentially from 300 – 500 bears in 1974 to 2,650 in 2002 to an estimated 4,350 in 2016. No official population estimate has been made for eight years. The bear population increased 60% from 2002 to 2014/15. If the trend continues into 2024, the black bear population will be estimated at over 6,000. Cubs are not included in the population estimates. From a 2016 article published in the news-journalonline.com:

    An estimated 4,350 adult black bears live across the state, an increase of 60 percent since the last statewide estimate in 2002, said Thomas Eason, director of habitat and species conservation for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

    As the bear population has expanded into areas with a higher density of people, the greatest known cause of adult bear deaths is vehicle collisions. 276 bears were killed in vehicle collisions in 2020, 289 in 2021, and 286 in 2022. The most common cause of bear cub mortality is attacks by adult male bears.
    The bill strikes to balance the protection of humans, their pets, and their homes with the protection of bears. Lethal force may be used to stop a bear only if the human reasonably fears for their safety, the safety of others, the safety of their pet, or substantial damage to a dwelling. From the bill:

  6. Gun Control and Government Corruption Collide in Chicago Suburb
    By Cam Edwards | 11:31 AM | February 19, 2024

    Police in Dolton, Illinois could soon be walking their beat instead of cruising the streets of the Chicago suburb after a bank moved to repossess much of the police department’s fleet of vehicles for non-payment. According to KS StateBank, the village is behind on its payments to the tune of $76,000, and the bank has been unable to reach anyone at City Hall who could rectify the problem.

    Burt Odelson, the legislative counsel for the Village of Dolton Board of Trustees, says the board authorized the payments last May, and he and others are pinning the blame for the snafu on Dolton’s anti-gun mayor Tiffany Henyard.

    As questions over unpaid bills have come to light in recent months, WGN Investigates previously uncovered exorbitant spending on lavish trips and experiences by Henyard, which included a trip to Las Vegas that cost more than $12,000 and fell in the same month the loan payment on the village vehicles was due.

    … Village of Dolton trustees have gone head-to-head with Henyard at village meetings, calling for transparency, so residents know where taxpayer dollars are going.

    “The residents of Dolton deserve to know how the money is being spent,” trustee Brittney Norwood told WGN-TV Thursday.

    The board of trustees is in charge of overseeing finances, but some said Henyard has restricted them from access to village financial records, leaving them mostly in the dark. On top of that, several trustees told WGN News Thursday they recently heard from several vendors who claimed they were hired by the mayor for work and never paid for their services. The village is in millions in debt, and did not approve of those expenses, Norwood told WGN.

    There’ve been questions about Henyard’s spending for years now. Back in 2021, Second Amendment advocate John Boch detailed that the mayor of the village was doling out hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for a team of officers to serve as her personal security detail, even as she was calling on lawmakers to pass more gun control laws that would make it harder for Dolton residents to protect themselves. The three officers, which accounted for almost 1/10th of the entire police force, cost taxpayers about $100,000 a year each, even though they were tasked almost exclusively with shadowing the small-town mayor.

    To put that into perspective, that’s the same number of bodyguards that protect Birmingham, Alabama’s mayor but that city has almost ten times the population of Dolton.

    At the same time, Mayor Henyard’s armed personal security detail affords her far more protection than the residents of her city enjoy. One of her first acts after taking office involved organizing an “anti-violence” march. She was joined at that march by anti-gun activist and accused pedophile Father Michael Pfleger.

    Henyard was actually recalled by residents in 2022, but the recall election was ruled invalid by state courts and she’s remained in office ever since. With the next mayoral election not scheduled until 2025, there’s no telling how much of a financial hole the village will find itself between now and next November, but it sounds like it’s a distinct possibility that the Dolton Police Department is going to be crippled by the repossession of much of its fleet. I’m guessing that Henyard will ensure that there’s still money to pay for her team of bodyguards or hire convicted child sex offenders for positions that require them to enter residents’ homes, but everyone else who lives in the village is going to be impacted by the financial mismanagement at City Hall.

    It’s pretty clear given her anti-gun activism that Henyard doesn’t want those folks to be able to protect themselves with a firearm, and based on the complaints from the trustees and their attorneys it might not be long before Dolton PD isn’t in a position to serve and protect the community at large either. What are they supposed to do to keep themselves and their families safe? I guess the obvious answer is “run for mayor”, since it sounds like Henyard is the one person in Dolton who’s guaranteed to be protected by armed individuals who are still legally allowed to purchase and possess so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines for the mayor’s defense.

  7. BREAKING: Israel Launches Airstrikes Against Targets in Lebanon (VIDEOS)
    by Paul Serran Feb. 19, 2024 11:00 am0 Comments

    In a move that’s likely to further escalate the ongoing military conflict in the Middle East, Israel has launched airstrikes against targets in Southern Lebanon.

    Times of Israel reported:

    “Lebanese media report Israeli airstrikes in the town of Ghaziyeh, on the southern outskirts of Sidon, some 30 kilometers (19 miles) from the northern border.

    Footage posted to social media shows large fireballs and clouds of smoke from the targeted sites.

    There is no immediate comment from the IDF.”

    From a Lebanese X account: ‘The first raid was near Al-Reem Company’s warehouse, and the second raid was near Al-Shahouri Mosque, Al-Regie area, in the Al-Ghaziyeh area, south of Sidon’.

    https://twitter.com/i/status/1759599061433233482

    Arab News reported:

    “At least two Israeli air strikes hit southern Lebanon on Monday near the coastal city of Sidon, state media and an AFP photographer said.

    […] ‘Israeli warplanes carried out… strikes on the town of Ghaziyeh’, the state-run National News Agency (NNA) said Monday, adding that a vehicle was targeted and ambulances rushed to the scene, without providing further details.”

    This is not the usual ‘near-the-border’ strike. Ghaziyeh is around 20 miles from the nearest Israeli frontier and less than five kilometers from the city of Sidon.

    One of the strikes appeared to have targeted a hangar close to the main coastal highway.

    In a move that’s likely to further escalate the ongoing military conflict in the Middle East, Israel has launched airstrikes against targets in Southern Lebanon.

    Times of Israel reported:

    “Lebanese media report Israeli airstrikes in the town of Ghaziyeh, on the southern outskirts of Sidon, some 30 kilometers (19 miles) from the northern border.

    Footage posted to social media shows large fireballs and clouds of smoke from the targeted sites.

    From a Lebanese X account: ‘The first raid was near Al-Reem Company’s warehouse, and the second raid was near Al-Shahouri Mosque, Al-Regie area, in the Al-Ghaziyeh area, south of Sidon’.

    Arab News reported:

    “At least two Israeli air strikes hit southern Lebanon on Monday near the coastal city of Sidon, state media and an AFP photographer said.

    […] ‘Israeli warplanes carried out… strikes on the town of Ghaziyeh’, the state-run National News Agency (NNA) said Monday, adding that a vehicle was targeted and ambulances rushed to the scene, without providing further details.”

    This is not the usual ‘near-the-border’ strike. Ghaziyeh is around 20 miles from the nearest Israeli frontier and less than five kilometers from the city of Sidon.

    One of the strikes appeared to have targeted a hangar close to the main coastal highway.

    “Video circulating on social media showed large plumes of smoke arising from at least two strikes.

    The Israeli military last week said it killed a Hezbollah commander, his deputy and another fighter in a strike in the south Lebanon city of Nabatiyeh.”

      [T]hey were trained “for all possibilities” -and for each option, they had an array of “tools,” be they weapons systems, communications technology, or combat tactics. “You need to be very dynamic.”

      “Hezbollah was armed with drones – small drones the size of phones, and larger suicide drones the size of a car. They have something of everything, just like we do.…

  8. 4. Vaccine Injured —If I could read the VARES report, you know the politicians had to know the numbers.

    Shelia Lewis, the Alberta woman who died on August 25, 2023, the unvaccinated woman who was denied a transplant because she was unvaccinated.

    Charlie Angus, the Federal NDP member of parliament said: “ A woman died because she preferred to fight for disinformation, anti-vaxx bullshit, and conspiracy.

    So Charlie Angus did not know the VARES numbers from August 5, 2022, a full year earlier that showed the anti-vaxx bullshit VARES numbers:
    Vaccine injured 1,379,438. Up 7,964 from the week before
    Deaths 30,162 up 161 from the previous week
    Serious vaccine Injuries 251,075. up 1,959 from the previous week.
    He probably would tell you it is disinformation that VARES historically reported less than 1% of the actual numbers.

    Yes, “Spreading vaccine Misinformation” does put physicians medical licences at risk. medical certifying boards in Canada and the US have warned doctors they risk losing their licenses if they spread Covid misinformation, but the boards also offered no clear definition of “Misinformation”.

    We were told “We are all in this together”.
    Heather Mallick of the Toronto Star wrote a column entitled:
    “The Unvaccinated Cherish Their Freedom to Harm Others —How Can We Ever Forgive Them?
    for having helped spread disease that killed and disabled so many, devastating the economy, leaving many of us jobless and wretched”.

    Did she ever know the number of “disabled” vaccine injured people?
    Does she have a clue of the number of Canadians who lost their jobs because they refused the so-called vaccines?
    Does she have a clue of the number of doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers who have lost their licenses and are STILL not allowed to practice in hospitals simply because they did not buy into the “vaccine bullshit”?

    The Toronto Star also printed on the front page a comment from a “healthcare” worker “If an unvaccinated person catches it from someone who is vaccinated, boo hoo, I have no empathy left for the willfully unvaccinated— Let them die”.

    Not responsible people abound — just sayin

  9. Military Survey: One World Leader’s Regime is Overwhelmingly Considered the Greatest Threat to America
    by J.M. Phelps Feb. 19, 2024 11:40 am141 Comments

    Over 200 service members currently serving in the U.S. military took part in an independent survey conducted by the author last fall. Some of the results were recently published by The Gateway Pundit.

    In part of the survey, military members lasered in on the greatest threat to the nation.

    When asked whether China’s Xi Jinping, Iran’s Ali Khamenei, North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, Russia’s Vladimir Putin, or America’s Joe Biden was the greatest threat to U.S. freedoms, 91.7 percent—201 of the survey’s 229 participants—named President Joe Biden. Nineteen others named Xi Jinping.

    Emphasizing that their views don’t reflect those of the Department of Defense or Department of the Army, The Gateway Pundit spoke to two of the survey’s participants on the condition of pseudonymity due to concern about reprisals.

  10. Biden, Haley Campaigns Blast President Trump for His Comment Comparing Death of Russian Dissident Alexei Navalny in Prison to “What Is Happening in Our Country”
    by Kristinn Taylor Feb. 19, 2024 11:20 am391 Comments

    President Trump commented Monday on the death in prison of 47-year-old Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, posting a statement on Truth Social comparing the corruption and oppression in Russia to that of the current day United States that drew sharp criticism from the rival presidential campaigns of Joe Biden and Nikki Haley

    Navalny, who survived a 2020 poisoning that used the Soviet era nerve agent Novichok, reportedly collapsed and died on Friday while taking a walk at the ‘Polar Wolf’ prison, a former Soviet gulag located north of the Arctic Circle. The day before, Navalny appeared in court looking healthy and acting defiant.

  11. House Panel Issues Subpoena for Penny Pritzker, Others, Over “Continued Failure” to Comply with Harvard Antisemitism Probe
    by Margaret Flavin Feb. 19, 2024 1:20 pm13 Comments

    Democrat mega-donor Penny Pritzker serves as the Board Chair for Harvard University.

    Billionaire Bill Ackman called on Pritzker and Harvard’s entire board to resign after the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay.

    He criticized the decision by Pritzker and the board to back Gay despite her disastrous testimony in front of the House Education Committee, where she failed to condemn students on campus calling for the genocide of Jews, as well as nearly 50 allegations of plagiarism against her.

    Now, the House Education and Workforce Committee has issued subpoenas for Pritzker and other top school officials over their “continued failure” to comply with its antisemitism probe.

    In January, Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) sent a letter to Pritzker and Interim President Alan Garber on Tuesday, expressing “grave concerns regarding the inadequacy of Harvard’s response to the antisemitism on campus” and demanding answers.

  12. DUTCH CULTURAL ENRICHMENT: Eritrean Migrant Gangs Cause Major Riot, Burn Police Cars – Geert Wilders: ‘I’ll Become the Prime Minister Who Finally Puts Things in Order’
    by Paul Serran Feb. 19, 2024 1:40 pm132 Comments

    Unchecked mass migration is the scourge of all Western developed nations, and the Netherlands is by no means an exception.

    While the political elite is paralyzed, negotiating for months the formation of the new cabinet expected to be led by Geert Wilders, the country is still bound to the same failed Globalist policies imposed by Brussels bureaucracy.

    While the migrants cause a whole host of problems for the Dutch economy and cohesion of its social fabric, in some aspects, the security problem is becoming the worst of them.

    The rioting that broke out between two rival groups of Eritreans in the Netherlands a couple of days ago is a perfect example.

    Police officers had to resort to tear gas to tackle the unrest in The Hague. Migrants torched police cars and a bus.

    ABC News reported:

    “Images from the scene showed vehicles in flames and dozens of men in the street, some throwing rocks.

    ‘It got seriously out of hand’, The Hague Municipality spokesman Robin Middel said.

  13. DEVELOPING: WW3 WATCH: Houthis Sink British Ship in Red Sea, Shoot Down US Reaper Drone, Attack Two US Ships in Gulf of Aden: Report
    by Cristina Laila Feb. 19, 2024 3:00 pm131 Comments

    *World War 3 Watch*

    Iran-backed Houthis sunk a British ship in the Red Sea on Monday and attacked two US ships in the Gulf of Aden.

    The US is also investigating a US Reaper drone that crashed in Yemen on Monday.

    A spokesman for the Houthis claimed the $30 million unmanned US Reaper drone was shot down “with a suitable missile.”

    According to reports: “The United Kingdom’s Maritime Trade Operations Agency (UKMTO) reported Monday that the Houthis sunk a ship traveling in the Red Sea , south of the port city of Mukha in Yemen. It is the the first time since the start of Israel’s war on Hamas in Gaza that a crew had to abandon their ship because of the Houthis.”

    “Yemen’s Houthi militants said on Monday they attacked two US ships, Sea Champion and Navis Fortuna, in the Gulf of Aden.” The Jerusalem Post reported.

    “The targeting operation was carried out with a number of appropriate naval missiles, and the casualties were accurate and direct, thanks to God,” the group’s military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a statement.

    This is what it looks like with a weak, mentally incapacitated and corrupt US president like Joe Biden in power.

    Iran’s militants have launched over 200 attacks on US facilities in the Middle East while Joe Biden issues empty threats and bombs empty fields.

    Earlier this month the US began retaliatory strikes in the Middle East after three American service members were killed in Jordan.

    The three servicemembers killed in action were all members of the 718th Engineer Company, a reservist unit out of Fort Moore, Georgia.

    The Pentagon released the names of three deceased servicemembers:

    Sgt. William Jerome Rivers, 46 of Carrollton, GA
    Spc. Kennedy Ladon Sanders, 24, of Waycross, GA
    Spc. Breonna Alexsondria Moffett, 23, Savannah, GA

    Biden gave key Iranian military officials a warning before the US conducted airstrikes in Iraq and Syria so they were able to safely flee the region just in time.

    Iran previously warned Joe Biden it would retaliate if he responded to the deadly drone attack on American service members.

    Joe Biden was careful to avoid a direct conflict with the state of Iran after they warned him.

    Meanwhile in Lebanon…

    Israel launched airstrikes against targets in Southern Lebanon on Monday amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.

    Sleep well, America.

  14. Embalmer Shares Shocking Video of Removing “Strange White Fibrous Clots” from a Dead Body — “I Didn’t Start Seeing This Until Early 2021” (GRAPHIC VIDEO)
    by Jim H?ft Feb. 19, 2024 3:20 pm

    Warning: The content described in this article is graphic in nature. Viewer discretion is advised.

    Richard Hirschman, a funeral director and embalmer from Alabama, went viral after releasing a disturbing video on his social media account on Sunday, which has since amassed over 15 million views.

    Hirschman had a role in the hit documentary “Died Suddenly,” which was released in late 2022 and has garnered almost 19 million views. It is a fascinating account of anomalies found in deceased humans since the roll-out of these experimental vaccines and more.

    The video features Hirschman removing what he describes as “strange white fibrous clots” from the right jugular vein of a deceased individual. Nicky King, who is also an embalmer, was recording the procedure.

    Hirschman, who has more than two decades of experience in embalming, expressed his disbelief and concern in the video’s caption.

    “This is a video of me removing one of the strange white fibrous clots, from the right jugular vein. The person who was recording it is Nicky King, who is also an embalmer. I didn’t notice it until I lifted the vessel up. I could feel it inside the vein. I only show this because people still don’t believe it and ask for video evidence. What’s causing this? I can’t say for sure, but I didn’t start seeing this until early 2021. Unfortunately, I still find strange clotting in several bodies that I embalm,” he wrote.

    Groundbreaking Global Study on 99 Million Vaccinated People Reveals Increases in Neurological, Blood, and Heart Conditions Associated with COVID-19 Vaccines
    by Jim H?ft Feb. 19, 2024 2:00 pm545 Comments

    In a groundbreaking multinational study conducted by the Global Vaccine Data Network (GVDN), researchers have shed light on the safety of COVID-19 vaccines among a cohort of 99 million vaccinated individuals.

    The study, spanning multiple countries, aimed to evaluate adverse events of special interest (AESI) following COVID-19 vaccination, providing crucial insights into vaccine safety.

    Some of the countries included in the study are:

    Denmark
    New Zealand
    Argentina
    Canada (Ontario and British Columbia)
    Finland
    Australia (New South Wales and Victoria)
    Scotland

    The study was published at the world’s leading scientific publisher and data analytics company for more than 140 years, Elsevier.

    The study confirmed known safety signals for conditions such as myocarditis, pericarditis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, while also identifying potential new safety signals that warrant further investigation.

    According to the result, the study covered 99,068,901 vaccinated individuals, analyzing the administration of 183,559,462 doses of Pfizer (BNT162b2), 36,178,442 doses of Moderna (mRNA-1273), and 23,093,399 doses of Oxford/AstraZeneca (ChAdOx1) vaccines.

    Experts chose thirteen health issues to keep a close eye on after people get their COVID-19 vaccines.

    The health issues they’re watching were picked from a list made by a group called the Brighton Collaboration SPEAC Project. They chose these specific issues because they are the same ones for which recent data on how common they are (background rates) was collected by some research sites.

    To identify these issues, they used a standardized system of medical codes called ICD-10. Among the issues they’re focusing on are several neurological conditions like Guillain-Barré syndrome (a rare nerve disorder), transverse myelitis (inflammation of the spinal cord), Bell’s palsy (sudden facial muscle weakness), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (a brief but widespread attack of inflammation in the brain and spinal cord), and seizures (convulsions that can happen with or without fever). They’re paying special attention to these because there have been some reports of these issues after vaccination.

    They’re also looking at blood clotting issues, including clots in the brain’s veins, clots in the abdomen’s veins, and lung clots, because these could be signs of a rare clotting problem linked to the vaccine. Low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) and a specific immune response causing low platelets (immune thrombocytopenia) are also being watched due to their connection to this clotting issue.

    Here’s what the study found about how certain health issues showed up after people got their COVID-19 vaccines:

    Neurological Conditions:

    After getting the first dose of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine, there was a noticeable increase in Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), where the body’s immune system attacks its nerves.
    Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), a rare brain and spinal cord inflammation, also popped up more than expected after the first Moderna vaccine dose.
    Other neurological issues like transverse myelitis (spinal cord inflammation), Bell’s palsy (facial paralysis), and seizures also occurred more than usual after some doses of these vaccines.

    Blood Clot and Platelet Conditions:

    The Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine first dose was linked to more cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), a type of blood clot in the brain, than expected.
    There were also more instances of low platelet counts and pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs) after some doses of Oxford/AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Moderna vaccines.
    Some vaccines also led to an increase in splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), another type of blood clot, after certain doses, but these findings didn’t signal a major safety concern according to the study’s criteria.

    Heart Conditions:

    Cases of myocarditis (heart inflammation) were significantly higher than expected after the first, second, and third doses of mRNA vaccines (like Pfizer and Moderna).
    Pericarditis (inflammation of the heart’s outer layer) cases also exceeded expectations after some doses of the Moderna vaccine and after the third dose of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine.
    These heart-related findings were considered important safety signals that need attention.

    What this means: The study noticed that after getting certain COVID-19 vaccine doses, some people experienced health issues like nerve and heart problems, or blood clots more than what was expected by the so-called experts.

  15. Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary Says He’s Boycotting in “Loser State” New York — Sets Sights on Oklahoma, North Dakota, West Virginia, Florida, and Texas for Future Ventures
    by Jim H?ft Feb. 19, 2024 4:20 pm106 Comments

    ‘Shark Tank’ star and famed investor Kevin O’Leary declared that he is ceasing all future investment activities in New York, labeling it a “loser state” due to its political climate and legal persecution against former President Trump.

    O’Leary is now turning his attention to states like Oklahoma, North Dakota, West Virginia, Florida, and Texas for his future business ventures.

    O’Leary’s commentary followed the verdict by Judge Arthur Engoron in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ fraud case against President Trump. O’Leary, who has been vocal about his investment philosophy, sees this as a turning point for his and potentially others’ investment strategies.

    During a Fox Business interview, O’Leary expressed his frustration with New York’s policies, which are hostile to businesses and investors.

    “I can’t go to New York, so I’m going to Oklahoma, North Dakota, West Virginia. Governor Stitt, Kevin Stitt. My staff have met with him. Governor Burgum, the same thing. Those are winner states. They don’t do things like this,” O’Leary said, underscoring his decision to redirect billions of dollars in investments towards states that are more business-friendly.

    oe Biden’s America.

    Four illegal aliens living in a migrant shelter in Chicago were arrested and charged for robbing and strangling a man on the Pink Line on Saturday.

    According to police, the four illegals identified as Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22, Wilker Gutierrez Sierra, 21, Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20, and 18-year-old Yonnier Guasamucare Garcia, attacked and robbed a 48-year-old passenger near the Kostner station Saturday afternoon.

    Excerpt from CWB:

    Four men who live at a migrant shelter in downtown Chicago have been charged with robbing and strangling a passenger on the Pink Line, officials say.

    The foursome attacked and robbed the 48-year-old man while riding a train near the Kostner station around 4:45 p.m. on Saturday, a CPD news release said. Chicago cops swooped in and arrested the suspects about 45 minutes later at the Pulaski station.

    CPD identified the men as Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22, Wilker Gutierrez Sierra, 21, Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20, and 18-year-old Yonnier Guasamucare Garcia. They all list home addresses in the 300 block of South Plymouth, home to the Standard Club migrant shelter.

    Prosecutors charged each man with robbery and aggravated battery by strangulation.

    Body camera footage captured the moment a New York man lunged at police officers with a knife and stabbed a rookie cop several times before another officer killed the thug.

    Fox News reported officers responded to a 911 call from a female resident in Bay Shore, Long Island, at 138 Udall Rd, regarding a domestic disturbance at around 9 A.M. Saturday. The woman on the phone told police her husband was threatening her.

    Three police officers were dispatched to the address in response. When two of the officers decided to approach the home, the situation went haywire.

    When one officer opened the screen door, he was attacked by a man, later identified as 33-year-old Taiquell Woodson, with a large knife. Woodson is the woman’s husband.

    The officer tried to retreat and fell into the snow in the home’s front yard. Woodson then jumped on top of the officer, stabbing him repeatedly.

    Shocking images and video taken in California this weekend show Chinese migrants lined up at the border town of Jacumba and telling reporters shamelessly how they’re here to ‘take the money’.

    Dozens and dozens, possibly up to hundreds of migrants, crossed the international boundary, according to Griff Jenkins of Fox News, who recorded the footage.

    ‘This is one of the largest groups of Chinese I have ever come across and there were […] two groups at the same time crossing in Jacumba, CA,’ the correspondent tweeted last week.

    More than 150 Chinese nationals a day have been sneaking into the US illegally since October, according to startling US Customs and Border Protection statistics.

  19. Louisiana Governor Declares Emergency Over Shortage of Cops As Lawmakers Eye Constitutional Carry

    As legislators return to Baton Rouge today for a special session on crime and public safety, Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry has declared a state of emergency in the Sportsmen’s Paradise over the declining number of law enforcement in the state; bolstering the argument that residents need to be able to protect and defend themselves from violent criminals without having to first obtain a permission slip from their local sheriff before they can bear arms in public.

    Landry, who was elected governor last November after serving two terms as the state’s Attorney General, isn’t pulling a Grisham with his emergency declaration and trying to suspend the right to carry in New Orleans or other major cities where violent crime is stubbornly high. Instead, he issued an executive order that’s mean to help bolster efforts to hire more officers and sheriffs deputies.

    How Palestine Hijacked the U.S. Civil Rights Movement
    A new generation of progressives has stumbled on old Soviet antisemitic propaganda

    The differences between the Palestinian national movement and the American civil rights movement are obvious and fundamental. Palestinians have played no role in American history or the history of slavery. Palestinians played no role in the civil rights struggle. The Palestinian-Israeli clash, which is occurring a world away from America, is national not racial. Most Israelis are dark-skinned, while some Palestinians are light-skinned. Nonviolence fueled the civil rights struggle, while the Palestinian movement keeps perfecting new forms of political violence and terror-porn, from hijacking to suicide bombing.

    As this brief history suggests, the identification of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with America’s race problem was hardly made in America. It is a recent foreign import. Long before the “globalization of the intifada,” Soviet communist propagandists “internationalized” the Palestinian “struggle.”

    In the mid-1960s, under Soviet patronage, Palestine became a global cause for the international left, earning a privileged spot in the constellation of Soviet-backed Third World anti-colonial and anti-imperial “liberation” movements through their use of terror.

    Today’s movement toward the “Palestinianization” of the Black struggle in America therefore mirrors Soviet propaganda efforts that are now more than half a century old – 30 years after Soviet communism imploded. Today’s campus commissars and progressive fanatics use very similar methods toward similar aims. If one wants to understand current rhetorical political alignments, understanding that history is therefore crucial.
