The Truck Convoy Protest is reaching into the pockets of the Corporate Oligarchy with The Blockades. Media Blackout strategy will change. I think.
Here is footage of CTV being barred from yesterday's Trucker's Press Conference. We get to see them refused admittance and entering the elevator in defeat.
The Truckers tell them "When you tell the truth, you will be admitted."

'First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they attack you. Then you win.' - Mohandas Gandhi

Of course Gandhi never uttered those words, but in our insane Fake News world even the attribution of a misquote becomes controversial. Upon googling up that old line, the first entry was from Snopes, the self proclaimed arbiter of internet factuality -- which attributed the misquote to Donald Trump. I link to the Christian Science Monitor for an earlier use of the phrase which they describe as "This line is probably the best summary of Gandhi's philosophy of satyagraha as you can get in 16 words."
Whether used to prove what a dick Trump is or to describe the Gandhi approace to revolution, the phrase is the simple truth about power. "They" ignored the truckers for about ten days because that is all "they" know how to do when challenged head on. Once "they" realize that you do not care about being ignored and you keep on with your campaign, they reach for ridicule and denigration.
This morning we are clearly in that second phase. I saw this booger-flick at the truckers on another message board:
.
There’s a lot going on in the world right now. If you’re not Canadian, then the protest in Ottawa might not be top of your list of things to worry about. But I’m afraid you should be worried. You should certainly be paying attention. What’s unfolding in Ottawa is not a grassroots protest that has spontaneously erupted out of the frustration of local lorry drivers. Rather, it’s an astroturfed movement – one that creates an impression of widespread grassroots support where little exists – funded by a global network of highly organised far-right groups and amplified by Facebook’s misinformation machine. The drama may be centred in Canada, but what is unfolding has repercussions for us all.
.
Astroturf? I love it. A bunch of guys decide to spend two weeks living in their trucks without an income because of their ideological fealty to international "far-right" groups. Good luck with that one, Guardian. I suppose you could regard the angry defamatory lies in this piece are an attack, but notice that the call to action is to "worry" about the truckers.
That is comical, and it has no effect whatsoever. Thus it is in the Second Phase -- mockery. We are moving along a much faster clip than Gandhi could have imagined back in the ancient history of the 20th Century.

Are being afflicted by the same disease? Its "the Empire Strikes Back" (not the film, the concept). Capital trying to roll back all the gains by the people of the last 100 yrs or so. Creating a global oligarchy that subsumes democracy for capital.
Its a lot like the flailing by the British Empire to stay in charge of the many countries they controlled in the last years of colonialism. When they claimed to be a democracy but in truth were far from one, really really far, and totally barbaric when they thought they were out of the public's sight. But always trying to portray their opposition as barbaric not themselves.

Before they went on protest I read that some car makers were closing down for a week because they couldn’t get chips for the cars. Today I read that it’s the fault of the truckers for why they can’t get chips for their cars. Then I read about how violent they are and how full of right wing ideology they are. Yep that’s why the media is now paying attention to them. They are just attacking them to fit the PTB narrative.

Chipageddon is a global thing with electronics manufacturers all around the world having problems with supply chains that have been going on now for two years. The cause is COVID-19 not truckers.
The chips are not essential to make cars. Lots of great cars exist that do not use any custom microelectronics at all. They are more reliable and cheaper to fix. Many of them live on for decades and their ability to hold their value over decades is a testimony to how much their owners like them and want to keep them running forever. Where the chips come i is the manufacturers "planned obsolescence" agenda. They can make cars that fail when they get older. Some insist the cars sometimes are "rigged" to fail in what appears to be a random, unpredictable manner, and cost so much to fix that people replace them. This recently happened to my laser printer and despite my having kept it in good repair all the time I have owned it and performed repairs literally by the book, now I am hitting a brick wall in repairing it.
There is some internal counter chip, kind of like in the dystopian 70s film Logans Run.
This is tremendously wasteful and should be illegal.

It’s interesting tho that the media is finally covering them, but only so they can blame them for all the world’s problems. It’s just another way to cause division between the players. Hence this interesting message from Malone.

It should, but how will they continue to make their vast profits if they make things that last? I usually have to replace my coffee maker every year because it just stops working. I’m very tempted to going back to making it in my percolator one.
John Deere makes it so farmers can’t work on their tractors. We’ve been industry captured. Remember how bored the Maytag man used to be? He’s now working in a appliance removal company.

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
It seems former hippie-rocker Neil Young was not being genuine with his protest against Spotify and Joe Rogan; the musician has been exposed for being linked to the big pharma conglomerate Pfizer after slamming Rogan for criticising the vaccine.
Neil Young has recently pulled his music from Spotify after the music streaming company refused to bow to his demand and remove Joe Rogan for “medical misinformation.”
Why would a lifelong junkie care so badly about someone discussing alternative medication during a podcast on Spotify that he’s willing to jeopardise his own career? Perhaps that could have do something with his financial connection to Pfizer, the biggest of the big pharma companies producing the vaccine for the virus.
Too bad Twitter doesn’t let us separate the tweets anymore. Pet peeve.

EXPOSED: Neil Young heavily linked to big pharma and Pfizer Neil is not so young, not so wise, and not so truthful.
...
Despite claiming that he was not trying to censor him, Neil Young demanded Spotify to remove Joe Rogan off their platform for “dangerous medical misinformation.” According to the 76-year-old former rehab regular, all drugs and vitamins are bad unless they are approved by big pharma.
Internet sleuths were absolutely shocked by this former freedom-loving hippies stance on freedom of speech and alternative medicine that they did some digging and they found that Neil Young is financially tied to Pfizer. The big pharma giant owns him and his music!
On January 6, 2021, Neil Young sold half of his catalogue to Merck Mercuriadis’ Hipgnosis Song Management company. Later that year Hipgnosis merged with Blackstone in a USD$1Bn deal. However, just a month before the merger Blackstone announced that they appointed Pfizer’s former Chairman and CEO Jeffrey B Kindler as the company’s Senior Advisor.

I cannot verify that statement, but I do note that Baillie Gifford, a Scottish money management firm, might have done so for a while, with interests in each in the 10-12% range, far from a controlling interest, fwiw.
I also don't see any overlap in their respective boards of directors.

Slick of them to use photogrammetry of photos Of Trudeau's face to create a life mask for use in that art. Of course the government is "throwing money at" researchers who endorse their Keep Fear Alive meme in all things tech, I see this happening a lot.
They probably would love to make having the skills to make and use effective satire of them and their antics a capital offense.
Find their antics on academic search engines like Google Scholar - under the term "deep fakes"
Cant they use our tax money in better ways than trying to suppress humor?

If I was a trucker I would try to record the chain of custody and seal the container under chain of custody procedures until it could be tested. That may require a neutral, trustworthy third party to testify as to who had it in their possession the entire time. Look up "chain of custody"
Video cameras with time and date stamping can be useful in documenting this kind of thing.
Contamination of fuel requires knowing the specific density characteristics of uncontaminated fuel as well as that of any likely contaminant, such as water, which has a specific gravity of 1.
Here is a discussion about fuel adulteration and a proposed method of determining same.
In terms of showing if fuel had been adulterated, any deviation from the expected density of unadulterated fuel would be a red flag. All fluids are not alike. All petrochemicals (i.e. unleaded gasoline, diesel fuel, etc) are lighter than water. But its quite common for expensive petrochemicals to be adulterated with cheaper ones.
But heard the jerry cans the cops returned to the truckers
all had water in them. Evil if true.
any chain of custody was lost for official reasons.
The jugs were tested by the truckers at their station
in Coventry after being returned by the cops. This is
where their tester found the water in the fuel.

before seeing her collapsed and then on rewatching it and looking at her eyes you can see when the trouble started. Today we learned that Bob Sagat hit the back of his head and then went to sleep and that’s why he died. I’m guessing that he left a note about it and that’s why the family can say that with no doubts whatsoever.

and goes somewhere within the house, perhaps both the kitchen and bathroom, trips, falls, hits head, returns to bed and dies from subdural haematoma. Cause of death says he hit his head (or somebody or something hit it). On what? Something. Lacking any evidence of an intruder or any reason to suspect one or any large pendulums one concludes he fell and hit his head, but, if he didn't break the skin or use tons of greasy kid stuff it might be impossible to decide what his head hit. Trip & fall/Slip & fall is a very common accident. Because he's a celebrity, everybody must know all of the details of his last hours, but that isn't always knowable. TeeVee detective shows have everybody expecting forensic magic but there isn't any.
How do you hit your head on "something?" not sure. but ok possible.

It’s that the family knows what exactly happened that caused his death. It could be just what happened, but it’s the definitive narrative that I’m questioning. Hence the note. Snark.
Moment of silence for 33 y.o. Dr. Li Wenliang, Ophthalmologist at Wuhan Central Hospital in China. On February 7, 2020 he died from COVID after warning the world of a mysterious pneumonia in late December 2019. #SoulsLostToCovidpic.twitter.com/NzdDAAQO8E
We trust doctors only because they have a professional oath to heal that subsumes all other responsibilities. When they start killing people for a state, as happened under the NASDP they became unspeakable criminals under a law higher than national law. They were guilty of a crime committed against all humanity. It has to be that way.
Doctors were hung for willingly participating in Hitler's insanity, his killing of the disabled and people imprisoned in concentration camps. Hung by the neck until dead.
That's what most people recognize needs to be the case.
Note, I don't know if the crimes of Nazi doctors even remotely applies to any of the things that are happening now. I certainly hope that it doesn't.
I view Li Wenliang as a hero. I cried like a baby when he died. I deeply hope his wife and infant child are okay and are being compensated generously for his death and loss. Li Wenliang is a Chinese hero.

"pneumonia of unknown origin" was SARS-CoV-1 - which was false. It would have caused a panic in Wuhan as they had an outbreak in 2002-2004 where the death rate was about 10%.
The problem the Chinese had was determining the facts of the outbreak and deciding how to best handle it. The worst thing was for the populace to panic and leave the city. Don't forget that the Chinese New Year was about to start in several weeks when a half billion people would be travelling to their home town/village on the HS rail system of which Wuhan is the VERY hub. The Chinese government made a quick decision to lock down the entire city (which is larger than NYC) followed by the province to prevent it's spread throughout the country. If you want to spread a virulent pathogen to infect the entire country, Wuhan at this time of year would be the place to do it.
The Chinese managed to control SAR-CoV-2 within 3-4 months with a loss of life less than 5,000 people. Compare to US death toll of 936,311 with a population only about a quarter of China.

Rumble — Covid shots have not stopped the spread of Covid spread, as admitted publicly by health authorities and by the vaccine manufacturers themselves. The shots have also not prevented people from catching Covid and dying from it. In some cases, the shots themselves are being blamed for deaths and adverse reactions. Growing evidence from the government's own data suggests that the hospitals are being overwhelmed by the vaccinated or those within 14 days of an mRNA shot.
What living things are supposed to do? As was said in the podcast, corporations are supposed to amorally seek profit.. Then its time to replace that amoral structure with something that is not amoral. Or end the practice of allowing business to engage in a legal fiction that they are people. De-charter them. End the practice of issuing charters to corporations.

Or , more accurately, stronger is not necessarily a positive attribute to evolutionary success - for a virus. Should it become too lethal it risks creating an evolutionary dead end for itself by killing off its hosts.
Thus, under normal conditions, viruses tend to evolve in the direction of lower lethality and greater infectivity - as in Omicron.
BUT - scientists (Geert Vandenbosche for one, IIRC) warned early on that mass vaccination into a pandemic risked facilitating the development of virulent strains by opening evolutionary pathways that would otherwise not have existed.
This sort of thing has been studied before and the prospects are more than a little frightening:
The deadliest strains of viruses often take care of themselves — they flare up and then die out. This is because they are so good at destroying cells and causing illness that they ultimately kill their host before they have time to spread.
But a chicken virus that represents one of the deadliest germs in history breaks from this conventional wisdom, thanks to an inadvertent effect from a vaccine. Chickens vaccinated against Marek’s disease rarely get sick. But the vaccine does not prevent them from spreading Marek’s to unvaccinated birds.
“With the hottest strains, every unvaccinated bird dies within 10 days. There is no human virus that is that hot. Ebola, for example, doesn’t kill everything in 10 days.”
In fact, rather than stop fowl from spreading the virus, the vaccine allows the disease to spread faster and longer than it normally would, a new study finds. The scientists now believe that this vaccine has helped this chicken virus become uniquely virulent...

Did you also happen to notice that the NZ police officers carried no guns, clubs, tasers or gas canisters? Yes, their response was brutal none-the-less. We'll see how the theatre performance ends on closing night. It used to be that NZ determined its own fate. Now it's become more dependent on the direction of other countries, sadly.

There may be no real-world comparison between a blood-soaked monster like Ceaușescu and a bumbling ball-scratcher like Joe Biden, or an honorarium-gobbling technocrat like Hillary Clinton, or a Handsome Dan investment banker like Emmanuel Macron, or an effete pseudo-intellectual like Justin Trudeau. Still, the ongoing inability of these leaders to see the math of populist uprisings absolutely recalls that infamous scene in Bucharest. From Brexit to the election of Donald Trump to, now, the descent of thousands of Canadian truckers upon the capital city of Ottawa to confront Trudeau, a consistent theme has been the refusal to admit — not even to us, but to themselves — the numerical truth of what they’re dealing with.
Trudeau is becoming the ultimate example. Truckers last month began protesting a January 22nd rule that required the production of vaccine passports before crossing the U.S.-Canadian border. Canadian truckers are reportedly 90% vaccinated, above the country’s 78% total, a key detail that’s been brazenly ignored by media in both countries determined to depict these more as “anti-vax” than “anti-mandate” protests (which seem to be about many things at once, but that’s another story). When an angry convoy descended upon the capital, Trudeau dismissed them in a soliloquy that can only be described as inspired political arson:
The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing, do not represent the views of Canadians…who know that following the science and stepping up to protect each other is the best way to ensure our rights, our freedoms, our values as a country.
A near-exact repeat of the “basket of deplorables” episode, Trudeau’s imperious description of “unacceptable” views instantly became a rallying cry, with people across the country lining the streets to cheer truckers while self-identifying as the “small fringe minority.” Everyone from high school kids to farmers and teachers and random marchers carrying jerrycans of fuel joined in as Trudeau’s own words were used to massively accelerate his troubles.
Trudeau fled the city, removing his family to what aides called a “secret location” for “security reasons,” a politically disastrous move denounced by just about everyone with a microphone or a Twitter account, including members of his own party. Liberal MP Joël Lightbound took things a step further. He ripped Trudeau’s politics as divisive, saying his government needs to recognize people have “legitimate concerns” while adding, acidly, “Not everyone can earn a living on a MacBook at a cottage.” This has been a theme in the States, too, where the people most dickishly insistent on the necessity of lockdowns or mandates have tended to be Zoomer professionals spending the pandemic in pajamas.
Meanwhile, in a hilarious third-rate spoof version of American conventional wisdom — when Canadians try to imitate American pretensions, does it ever not end in a cringe-worthy self-own? — CBC announcer Nil Köksal went on air on January 28th and suggested the trucker protests were a Russian concoction. “Given Canada’s support of Ukraine in this current crisis with Russia,” she posited, to Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino, “there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this protest grows, or perhaps even instigating it from the outside.”
The Russians must be fabulous organizers, as they not only managed to turn out big numbers to participate in the “Freedom Convoy,” but prevailed upon towing companies across the country to refuse orders to have the trucks removed from Ottawa. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) reportedly also tried to get such companies to remove trucks from another blockade in Alberta, and they were refused there, too.
The Canadian government had less resistance when, in an extraordinarily sleazy move, they asked GoFundMe to shut down a fundraiser for the protests. They succeeded at first in getting roughly $10 million frozen on the highly dubious grounds that “the previously peaceful demonstration has become an occupation, with police reports of violence and other unlawful activity.”
Ultimately GoFundMe offered to return the donations, and the truckers raised money via a different portal, GiveSendGo, helping the Canadian government and its backers complete a master class in how not to deal with a peaceful national protest. From underestimating to overreacting to needlessly insulting to trying to steal legitimate donations to fleeing the scene to leveling accusations of treason, sedition, “occupation,” and “insurrection” — there’s another ham-fisted facsimile of American hysteria — Canadian authorities did everything but the obvious move, meeting protesters head-on and negotiating with them in realistic terms. You don’t have to agree with them, but you do have to deal with them, which in this case means giving up the fantasy that your opposition is “small” or “fringe.”
because it’s ordinary people doing it, but it was heroic when governments all over the world shut them down themselves no matter what it did to people and their businesses. Funny how it’s just the way the story is told.

“Patients tell us they wish more than anything that they could work and do the most basic activities they used to before they got sick with long COVID,” said corresponding author and University of California, Irvine associate professor of nursing, Melissa Pinto, in a statement. “They are desperately searching for something to help them get back on their feet.”
That search led Pinto and colleagues to the cases of two women, details of which they describe in a paper published in The Journal for Nurse Practitioners. Both women were otherwise healthy and ended up taking the antihistamine diphenhydramine, sometimes branded as Benadryl or Nytol, as something of a happy accident.
In the first case, the woman had triggered an existing lactose intolerance by eating cheese so took the antihistamine to manage the subsequent symptoms. The second had run out of her usual allergy medication so switched.
In both instances, the women found daily doses of the antihistamine led to significantly improved quality of life. Their cognition, exercise tolerance, and pain severity – all of which had worsened after SARS-CoV-2 infection – were improved and rashes and lesions associated with long COVID (which has around 203 possible symptoms) went away.
Each woman reports they’ve regained 90 and 95 percent of their pre-illness function under the diphenhydramine antihistamine regime. Their promising outcome potentially demonstrates that this readily available medication could have a big impact on those who feel they have lost much of their quality of life to long COVID.
“Currently, there is no cure for [long COVID], only symptom management,” said Pinto. “A number of options are being tried, with antihistamines being one of them.”
While the women represent a small sample size, with similar characteristics including age, sex, and ethnicity, Pinto maintains that the promise of an afforable medication easing long COVID symptoms is worth further investigation.
“The possibility that an easy-to-access, over-the-counter medication could ease some of the [long COVID] symptoms should offer hope to the estimated 54 million people worldwide who have been in distress for months or even years,” she continued. "The next steps for this research into antihistamine treatment are to conduct broad-based trials in order to evaluate efficacy and to develop dosage schedules for clinical practice guidelines.”

...for a long time, since they crush inflamation. It's logical to see it as symptomatic relief, at least.
So far, the most powerful compounds against Covid-19 are already in the drugstore. And, that's a fact.
I've been reading covid-19 autopsy studies all week. And looking at the world of biomarkers that hospitals use to triage those who are infected. In reality, they know exactly who is going to die, even when they are still feeling okay. The fact is, everyone in the ICU is severely deficient in vitamin D3, which actually acts as an independent adjunctive immune system.
The loss of life in the US would have been drastically less if the FDA had done its job and recommended the correct amount of Vitamin D3 as the MDR for all Americans, and if food had been properly enriched. Vitamin D3's role in fighting SARS-CoV-2 was known in the first six weeks of the pandemic. Old people die of Covid-19 not because they are old or sick — but because they are the most radically deficient in vitamin D3 in the entire US population. African American men come next. (Selenium deficiency is also common in Covid-19 fatalities.) And everybody in the US is low on the kind of zinc that is bioavailable and useable by the human body. Companies that make supplements frequently use the wrong form of minerals in their products.
The Public Heath System in the US is a criminal enterprise.

Can’t deny that. It’s designed to be a criminal enterprise by congress who allows big pharma to gauge us on how much we pay for drugs that have been around forever. There is no reason why insulin has been priced out of so many people’s reach after it was sold for $1 so everyone could have it. Lots of other drugs should be much cheaper too but they are priced higher every year just because big pharma wants to pay their shareholders more money. Most members of congress are beholden to them for money for their re-elections and then they do their bidding. Look at what just happened in California when they were considering single payer. And recently democrats killed a bill to regulate prices. Many people in congress have run on single payer their entire tenure and they don’t even bother to work on bringing it up for a vote, but people just keep giving them a pass for their betrayal and vote them back in every time they come up for re-election. Pelosi ran on it over 30 years ago and look at where we are it.
But getting back to treatment for Covid it’s beyond criminal that Fauci and friends don’t talk about the things people could do to be healthier. Some doctors have given patients a vitamin cocktail only to be told to stop doing it. As well as other drugs that they have found successful. Imagine knowing how to keep people alive but told not to and just watch them die. That’s on par with what Mengela did. What we have witnessed happening the last 2 years is beyond cruel. Ima gonna stop here cuz I feel a rant coming on.

...is is shaping up to be a major depopulation event. But that's what the people seem to want. "Give me liberty or give me death."
The US suppression of treatments and prophylactics plays right into that, along with vaccines that, in the end, create an army of zombi spreaders. One must assume that depopulation must be the goal in the US. So many people have been infected, which means that they are now walking health-care time bombs. They could explode into massive health care costs at any moment, continuing for the rest of their lives. These subsequent layers of infections are bound to finish them off and let the insurance companies off the hook.
Anyone who reads the research and clinical data, knows what I am talking about.
Each infection layers more damage into the body. It does not make people stronger. Each time someone in a family gets infected, they infect the entire family. We have prophylactics that can prevent that, but these drugs are not available to the American people. That's an extinction event. That's how exterminators work in pest control.
The Truckers proved one thing:
You can't vote your way out of tyranny.
But watch everyone vote again, as if it made a difference. That's the most depressing part of this whole experience. We lost to tyranny a long, long time ago. Those who don't conform will be pushed over the cliff one by one.
I've been reading the expat boards lately. Americans are pulling it together and getting out of the country. Packing up the extended family. They are helping each other relocate, and finding ways to make money and invest. They are figuring out where to go, how to bank, how to do it legally, and forming educational groups and meet-ups. Many are in Latin America, some are returning to Europe, some moving South East Asia. Australians are getting out, as well. That country has suffered a complete Neocon takeover and turned into a real shithole. Humans migration is nothing new. All Americans have migrant roots. But there is a real uptick in expats leaving the Five-Eyes genocide nations, including Canada. Europeans not so much, but Europe is the indigenous homeland of white people, where they evolved, so there is an ancient and enduring connection, there.
The white genocide colonies seem to have gone crazy. Israel, too, of course. This has all coincided with China's rise. I've got to credit Napoleon with the prescience to predict this. He said: "China is a sleeping dragon. Let her sleep, for when she wakes she will shake the World."

NZ national health insurance covers blood tests, yet when my GP included testing for Vit D3 I had to pay independently for that test alone. Because I am olive-skinned I don’t absorb Vitamin D as easily as others. I also don’t want to have more Vit D than I need because too much can interfere with other aspects of health.

You won't be amping Vitamin D for long enough to develop chronic issues. It takes about three weeks to build up to the level you need. The body will only store it if your diet contains certain fats. (butter comes to mind; certain oils that do not oxidize when heated.) You are outside a lot. But the sun there is at radical angle, so you should be supplementing. We evolved in the equatorial zone and lost our ability to produce our own D3. Ate foods that contained D3. Lost our body hair and exposed more skin to the sun. Then we started migrating north and south. It is a weakness in our species that no other mammals have. People who remained near the sea stayed healthier because of seafood. But food is not nutrient rich anymore. Overpopulation pulls too much out of the soil. New research suggests that D3 levels may be related to the onset of the diseases of aging.

Although my blood test proved sufficient in Vitamin D3 I did start to take a small amount in addition, in liquid form. I also live by the sea where two fishermen I know supplement my fresh fish cravings. I use olive oil frequently, which I hadn’t known before you mentioned it, is necessary for storage of Vit D. Doing inversions in yoga are also anti-ageing, not that I want to live forever ; ).

The Vitamin D Council places the ideal level between 40 and 80 ng/mL with levels below 20 ng/mL as deficient.... the Vitamin D Council states that even levels between 30 and 40 ng/mL are still not quite sufficient.

I’m highly allergic to bees and had to go to the doctor PDQ when I got stung from one for shots of Benadryl or die and it would knock me out. But as I got older I had the opposite effect and it made me agitated and I had weird dreams on it and woke up like a bear that woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I felt hung over. I’ve tried taking the newer sleep meds like Lunesta and felt absolutely drunk the next morning.

But as I got older I had the opposite effect and it made me agitated and I had weird dreams on it and woke up like a bear that woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I felt hung over. I’ve tried taking the newer sleep meds like Lunesta and felt absolutely drunk the next morning.
I am absolutely thrilled to let you now that a public invitation has been issued to three of the top public health officials that have been driving the COVID-19 narrative in Canada. They are being asked to meet with me and two of my colleagues at Parliament Hill this Friday. We are travelling to our nation’s capital to demonstrate our willingness to engage in a respectful discussion of the science and medicine underpinning COVID-19. This is to be a live-streamed event with an open invitation having been issued to all ‘alternative’ and legacy media sources. You will find below a portion of the media release, plus copies of the invitations that were sent yesterday (Monday February 7th).

I don’t care what side of the narrative anyone is on; censorship and discouragement of respectful scientific discussions is wrong. This is a necessary component of the scientific process to facilitate transparent education of the public. Canadians pay their public servants to do this as part of our duties and you deserve to be able to make the most informed decisions possible to safeguard your health....

Media Release:
OTTAWA – Doctors in support of the freedom convoy are inviting senior health officials to participate in a public scientific forum with subject matter experts in COVID-19, medicine, immunology, epidemiology, and virology, including Dr. Byram Bridle, Dr. Paul Alexander, and Dr. Roger Hodkinson to an open and fair discussion, with senior Health Administrative representatives of the Federal Government, Dr. Theresa Tam and Dr. Howard Njoo and the Chair of the National Advisory Committee on Immunization, Dr. Shelley Deeks.
Given that the government claims we are in a state of emergency, we feel this discussion needs to be expedited and brought before the Canadian public.
As you are aware, there is a growing number of Canadians - led and inspired by the Freedom Convoy 2022 - who have traveled from across the nation to peacefully assemble in solidarity with the truckers. This movement is a lawful protest that is making its presence known across the country, and has garnered support not only throughout our nation, but also internationally. We are calling upon all Governments of Canada to publicly declare an end to the health emergency, and an end to all COVID-19 mandates both provincially and federally, as the evidence is clear that there is no health emergency, and the mandates cannot be supported scientifically. Twelve global nations including the UK and the Nordic nations of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden have now either dropped mandates entirely or will in the immediate future.
When: Friday, February 11th, 2022
1 pm to 3 pm eastern time

They are acting on the political policy of forced injections. Mandates. Period.
And, maybe they hate wearing masks. And are having a big pout about it.
People should be encouraged to do whatever it takes to avoid becoming infected. It causes brain damage in most. And serious organ damage that will be with them for the rest of their lives.
That's a constructive message.
After this, it's back to the Tea Party, for them. Why are they still there?
All the US states are de-masking and throwing everybody back into the germ pool to breathe each other's snot, just in time for the worst variant yet. Burning its way through Brazil. Meanwhile, from mid-Feb to the end of this month, an additional 75,000 will be dead in the US from the "mild" Omicron, according to the CDC. But that's only if Americans keep their masks on at all times and maintain their social distancing.
I doubt that these "public health officials" will show up.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." ---- William Casey, CIA Director, 1981
My name is Robert Malone, and I am a United States-based Physician and Scientist.
We all stand on the shoulders of giants. The simple truths are what matter most. Honest words, spoken from the heart, can change the world.
We should not have politicized the public health response to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.
And Justin Trudeau should have focused on managing the actual ground truth of COVID-19 instead of following the script provided to him by the leadership of the World Economic Forum.
I am a physician and a scientist now, and I am highly trained and experienced in developing vaccines and other medicines.
But I have also been a carpenter and a farm hand, and I still work my farm. I drive a GMC dually diesel flatbed, a Kubota farm tractor, and can run a skidloader or drive a team of Percheron horses. I have shown my Percheron foals at the Royal Winter Fair. By the original meaning, I am a teamster.
I come to you with an open heart, committed to healing, bringing three simple words.
Integrity. Dignity. Community.
These are three simple words that ring like bells in the heart of honest people.
Benito Mussolini once said “Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of the state and corporate power.”
In the actions of the governments of Ottawa and Canada, we are now able to clearly see the previously hidden face of global Fascist totalitarianism, by which I mean the fusion of the power of large corporations with the power of the State- as Facism has been defined by Mussolini.
We are now seeing shocking signals of desperation from our globalist, corporatist opponents. The incompetence of the Party of Davos is becoming plain for all to see.

Yet Another Blockade

The Truck Convoy Protest is reaching into the pockets of the Corporate Oligarchy with The Blockades. Media Blackout strategy will change. I think.
Here is footage of CTV being barred from yesterday's Trucker's Press Conference. We get to see them refused admittance and entering the elevator in defeat.

Media Blackout Gives Way to Media Hoot At
.

Of course Gandhi never uttered those words, but in our insane Fake News world even the attribution of a misquote becomes controversial. Upon googling up that old line, the first entry was from Snopes, the self proclaimed arbiter of internet factuality -- which attributed the misquote to Donald Trump. I link to the Christian Science Monitor for an earlier use of the phrase which they describe as "This line is probably the best summary of Gandhi's philosophy of satyagraha as you can get in 16 words."
Whether used to prove what a dick Trump is or to describe the Gandhi approace to revolution, the phrase is the simple truth about power. "They" ignored the truckers for about ten days because that is all "they" know how to do when challenged head on. Once "they" realize that you do not care about being ignored and you keep on with your campaign, they reach for ridicule and denigration.
This morning we are clearly in that second phase. I saw this booger-flick at the truckers on another message board:
.
.
Astroturf? I love it. A bunch of guys decide to spend two weeks living in their trucks without an income because of their ideological fealty to international "far-right" groups. Good luck with that one, Guardian. I suppose you could regard the angry defamatory lies in this piece are an attack, but notice that the call to action is to "worry" about the truckers.
That is comical, and it has no effect whatsoever. Thus it is in the Second Phase -- mockery. We are moving along a much faster clip than Gandhi could have imagined back in the ancient history of the 20th Century.
I cried when I wrote this song. Sue me if I play too long.
How many people realize the coup is global+both US and Canada
Are being afflicted by the same disease? Its "the Empire Strikes Back" (not the film, the concept). Capital trying to roll back all the gains by the people of the last 100 yrs or so. Creating a global oligarchy that subsumes democracy for capital.
Its a lot like the flailing by the British Empire to stay in charge of the many countries they controlled in the last years of colonialism. When they claimed to be a democracy but in truth were far from one, really really far, and totally barbaric when they thought they were out of the public's sight. But always trying to portray their opposition as barbaric not themselves.
Media blackout has changed
Before they went on protest I read that some car makers were closing down for a week because they couldn’t get chips for the cars. Today I read that it’s the fault of the truckers for why they can’t get chips for their cars. Then I read about how violent they are and how full of right wing ideology they are. Yep that’s why the media is now paying attention to them. They are just attacking them to fit the PTB narrative.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
Its not the fault of truckers.
Chipageddon is a global thing with electronics manufacturers all around the world having problems with supply chains that have been going on now for two years. The cause is COVID-19 not truckers.
The chips are not essential to make cars. Lots of great cars exist that do not use any custom microelectronics at all. They are more reliable and cheaper to fix. Many of them live on for decades and their ability to hold their value over decades is a testimony to how much their owners like them and want to keep them running forever. Where the chips come i is the manufacturers "planned obsolescence" agenda. They can make cars that fail when they get older. Some insist the cars sometimes are "rigged" to fail in what appears to be a random, unpredictable manner, and cost so much to fix that people replace them. This recently happened to my laser printer and despite my having kept it in good repair all the time I have owned it and performed repairs literally by the book, now I am hitting a brick wall in repairing it.
There is some internal counter chip, kind of like in the dystopian 70s film Logans Run.
This is tremendously wasteful and should be illegal.
Yes I know it’s not the truckers fault
It’s interesting tho that the media is finally covering them, but only so they can blame them for all the world’s problems. It’s just another way to cause division between the players. Hence this interesting message from Malone.
I’m guessing that unnamed person is BlackRock? They seem to have their hands in just about every industry.
It should, but how will they continue to make their vast profits if they make things that last? I usually have to replace my coffee maker every year because it just stops working. I’m very tempted to going back to making it in my percolator one.
John Deere makes it so farmers can’t work on their tractors. We’ve been industry captured. Remember how bored the Maytag man used to be? He’s now working in a appliance removal company.

"Follow the money"
Malone doesn't name said top owner, oddly enough.
I cannot verify that statement, but I do note that Baillie Gifford, a Scottish money management firm, might have done so for a while, with interests in each in the 10-12% range, far from a controlling interest, fwiw.
I also don't see any overlap in their respective boards of directors.

Don't know if it is rumor or fact
But heard the jerry cans the cops returned to the truckers
all had water in them. Evil if true.
It would be easy to find out.
If I was a trucker I would try to record the chain of custody and seal the container under chain of custody procedures until it could be tested. That may require a neutral, trustworthy third party to testify as to who had it in their possession the entire time. Look up "chain of custody"
Video cameras with time and date stamping can be useful in documenting this kind of thing.
Contamination of fuel requires knowing the specific density characteristics of uncontaminated fuel as well as that of any likely contaminant, such as water, which has a specific gravity of 1.
Here is a discussion about fuel adulteration and a proposed method of determining same.
https://www.intechopen.com/chapters/11778
In terms of showing if fuel had been adulterated, any deviation from the expected density of unadulterated fuel would be a red flag. All fluids are not alike. All petrochemicals (i.e. unleaded gasoline, diesel fuel, etc) are lighter than water. But its quite common for expensive petrochemicals to be adulterated with cheaper ones.
Unfortunately, when the cops took the fuel
any chain of custody was lost for official reasons.
The jugs were tested by the truckers at their station
in Coventry after being returned by the cops. This is
where their tester found the water in the fuel.
Interesting….

Person gets up in the middle of the night, half-asleep
and goes somewhere within the house, perhaps both the kitchen and bathroom, trips, falls, hits head, returns to bed and dies from subdural haematoma. Cause of death says he hit his head (or somebody or something hit it). On what? Something. Lacking any evidence of an intruder or any reason to suspect one or any large pendulums one concludes he fell and hit his head, but, if he didn't break the skin or use tons of greasy kid stuff it might be impossible to decide what his head hit. Trip & fall/Slip & fall is a very common accident. Because he's a celebrity, everybody must know all of the details of his last hours, but that isn't always knowable. TeeVee detective shows have everybody expecting forensic magic but there isn't any.

We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.
Li Wenliang did what he as a doctor needed to do.
We trust doctors only because they have a professional oath to heal that subsumes all other responsibilities. When they start killing people for a state, as happened under the NASDP they became unspeakable criminals under a law higher than national law. They were guilty of a crime committed against all humanity. It has to be that way.
Doctors were hung for willingly participating in Hitler's insanity, his killing of the disabled and people imprisoned in concentration camps. Hung by the neck until dead.
That's what most people recognize needs to be the case.
Note, I don't know if the crimes of Nazi doctors even remotely applies to any of the things that are happening now. I certainly hope that it doesn't.
I view Li Wenliang as a hero. I cried like a baby when he died. I deeply hope his wife and infant child are okay and are being compensated generously for his death and loss. Li Wenliang is a Chinese hero.
Li Wenliang reported that the
"pneumonia of unknown origin" was SARS-CoV-1 - which was false. It would have caused a panic in Wuhan as they had an outbreak in 2002-2004 where the death rate was about 10%.
The WHO had already been notified on Jan 1, 2000.
The problem the Chinese had was determining the facts of the outbreak and deciding how to best handle it. The worst thing was for the populace to panic and leave the city. Don't forget that the Chinese New Year was about to start in several weeks when a half billion people would be travelling to their home town/village on the HS rail system of which Wuhan is the VERY hub. The Chinese government made a quick decision to lock down the entire city (which is larger than NYC) followed by the province to prevent it's spread throughout the country. If you want to spread a virulent pathogen to infect the entire country, Wuhan at this time of year would be the place to do it.
The Chinese managed to control SAR-CoV-2 within 3-4 months with a loss of life less than 5,000 people. Compare to US death toll of 936,311 with a population only about a quarter of China.
The Pandemic of the Vaccinated
Covid merely evolved to be stronger, isnt that
What living things are supposed to do? As was said in the podcast, corporations are supposed to amorally seek profit.. Then its time to replace that amoral structure with something that is not amoral. Or end the practice of allowing business to engage in a legal fiction that they are people. De-charter them. End the practice of issuing charters to corporations.
Stronger is not necessarily better
Or , more accurately, stronger is not necessarily a positive attribute to evolutionary success - for a virus. Should it become too lethal it risks creating an evolutionary dead end for itself by killing off its hosts.
Thus, under normal conditions, viruses tend to evolve in the direction of lower lethality and greater infectivity - as in Omicron.
BUT - scientists (Geert Vandenbosche for one, IIRC) warned early on that mass vaccination into a pandemic risked facilitating the development of virulent strains by opening evolutionary pathways that would otherwise not have existed.
This sort of thing has been studied before and the prospects are more than a little frightening:

Actually, I've had my eye on antihistamines
...for a long time, since they crush inflamation. It's logical to see it as symptomatic relief, at least.
So far, the most powerful compounds against Covid-19 are already in the drugstore. And, that's a fact.
I've been reading covid-19 autopsy studies all week. And looking at the world of biomarkers that hospitals use to triage those who are infected. In reality, they know exactly who is going to die, even when they are still feeling okay. The fact is, everyone in the ICU is severely deficient in vitamin D3, which actually acts as an independent adjunctive immune system.
The loss of life in the US would have been drastically less if the FDA had done its job and recommended the correct amount of Vitamin D3 as the MDR for all Americans, and if food had been properly enriched. Vitamin D3's role in fighting SARS-CoV-2 was known in the first six weeks of the pandemic. Old people die of Covid-19 not because they are old or sick — but because they are the most radically deficient in vitamin D3 in the entire US population. African American men come next. (Selenium deficiency is also common in Covid-19 fatalities.) And everybody in the US is low on the kind of zinc that is bioavailable and useable by the human body. Companies that make supplements frequently use the wrong form of minerals in their products.
The Public Heath System in the US is a criminal enterprise.

The Public Heath System in the US is a criminal enterprise
Can’t deny that. It’s designed to be a criminal enterprise by congress who allows big pharma to gauge us on how much we pay for drugs that have been around forever. There is no reason why insulin has been priced out of so many people’s reach after it was sold for $1 so everyone could have it. Lots of other drugs should be much cheaper too but they are priced higher every year just because big pharma wants to pay their shareholders more money. Most members of congress are beholden to them for money for their re-elections and then they do their bidding. Look at what just happened in California when they were considering single payer. And recently democrats killed a bill to regulate prices. Many people in congress have run on single payer their entire tenure and they don’t even bother to work on bringing it up for a vote, but people just keep giving them a pass for their betrayal and vote them back in every time they come up for re-election. Pelosi ran on it over 30 years ago and look at where we are it.
But getting back to treatment for Covid it’s beyond criminal that Fauci and friends don’t talk about the things people could do to be healthier. Some doctors have given patients a vitamin cocktail only to be told to stop doing it. As well as other drugs that they have found successful. Imagine knowing how to keep people alive but told not to and just watch them die. That’s on par with what Mengela did. What we have witnessed happening the last 2 years is beyond cruel. Ima gonna stop here cuz I feel a rant coming on.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
This latest de-masking and "back to normal" frenzy
...is is shaping up to be a major depopulation event. But that's what the people seem to want. "Give me liberty or give me death."
The US suppression of treatments and prophylactics plays right into that, along with vaccines that, in the end, create an army of zombi spreaders. One must assume that depopulation must be the goal in the US. So many people have been infected, which means that they are now walking health-care time bombs. They could explode into massive health care costs at any moment, continuing for the rest of their lives. These subsequent layers of infections are bound to finish them off and let the insurance companies off the hook.
Anyone who reads the research and clinical data, knows what I am talking about.
Each infection layers more damage into the body. It does not make people stronger. Each time someone in a family gets infected, they infect the entire family. We have prophylactics that can prevent that, but these drugs are not available to the American people. That's an extinction event. That's how exterminators work in pest control.
The Truckers proved one thing:
You can't vote your way out of tyranny.
But watch everyone vote again, as if it made a difference. That's the most depressing part of this whole experience. We lost to tyranny a long, long time ago. Those who don't conform will be pushed over the cliff one by one.
I've been reading the expat boards lately. Americans are pulling it together and getting out of the country. Packing up the extended family. They are helping each other relocate, and finding ways to make money and invest. They are figuring out where to go, how to bank, how to do it legally, and forming educational groups and meet-ups. Many are in Latin America, some are returning to Europe, some moving South East Asia. Australians are getting out, as well. That country has suffered a complete Neocon takeover and turned into a real shithole. Humans migration is nothing new. All Americans have migrant roots. But there is a real uptick in expats leaving the Five-Eyes genocide nations, including Canada. Europeans not so much, but Europe is the indigenous homeland of white people, where they evolved, so there is an ancient and enduring connection, there.
The white genocide colonies seem to have gone crazy. Israel, too, of course. This has all coincided with China's rise. I've got to credit Napoleon with the prescience to predict this. He said: "China is a sleeping dragon. Let her sleep, for when she wakes she will shake the World."

Hi Pluto, regarding vitamin D3
NZ national health insurance covers blood tests, yet when my GP included testing for Vit D3 I had to pay independently for that test alone. Because I am olive-skinned I don’t absorb Vitamin D as easily as others. I also don’t want to have more Vit D than I need because too much can interfere with other aspects of health.
Treat it like a temporary thing.
You won't be amping Vitamin D for long enough to develop chronic issues. It takes about three weeks to build up to the level you need. The body will only store it if your diet contains certain fats. (butter comes to mind; certain oils that do not oxidize when heated.) You are outside a lot. But the sun there is at radical angle, so you should be supplementing. We evolved in the equatorial zone and lost our ability to produce our own D3. Ate foods that contained D3. Lost our body hair and exposed more skin to the sun. Then we started migrating north and south. It is a weakness in our species that no other mammals have. People who remained near the sea stayed healthier because of seafood. But food is not nutrient rich anymore. Overpopulation pulls too much out of the soil. New research suggests that D3 levels may be related to the onset of the diseases of aging.
Here's a one-page meta-analysis of all Vitamin D3 studies with Covid-19.
No FDA approved drug has outcomes that can compare.

I have been temporarily increasing my intake of Vit D
Although my blood test proved sufficient in Vitamin D3 I did start to take a small amount in addition, in liquid form. I also live by the sea where two fishermen I know supplement my fresh fish cravings. I use olive oil frequently, which I hadn’t known before you mentioned it, is necessary for storage of Vit D. Doing inversions in yoga are also anti-ageing, not that I want to live forever ; ).
Thanks for the link and your research.
recommended blood levels are...
40-80 ng/mL What many doctors consider too high.
https://icwb.com/vitamin-d
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
Sounds similar to a MD's recent advice on Lutein
to a person with early macular degeneration.
"Too much" Lutein (undescribed dosage) was asserted to be toxic.
Thanks for the link Lookout
My level is 42 ng/mL, so I feel safe to supplement it.
I have long haul COVID rash,
treat it with some generic, 2nd generation antihistamine.
Well, I may go back to the Bad Ass Bene.
AND, vets use it with aspirin as a treatment for snake bites, scorpion bites, in cats, dogs, and if a vet is there when those bites happen, they will give them to humans. Been there with a scorpion sting when the vet was attending my horses. It was in the halter I grabbed off the peg, and the vet was so happy I got stung, not my horse on his head. She said "We would have never gotten a halter on him again!" Then, noticing I was in, like, distress, offered me a Benedryl.

There you go. Turned it into a horse pill.
Actually, I've see the Benadryl story before. But I just noticed that the CDC is already building a backfire against Benadryl use for Covid-19 because it could be dangerous (and inexpensive). As if....
Here's the Brazil study:

You can see the surge in Brazil at the NYT: Brazil claims it is the new variant.

I would check out Benadryl at least once before one stocks up
My mother insisted once I take Benadryl to sleep and overcome jet lag. I dutifully followed her orders and woke up the next morning feeling worse than before, but I did get some sleep.
Ditto
I’m highly allergic to bees and had to go to the doctor PDQ when I got stung from one for shots of Benadryl or die and it would knock me out. But as I got older I had the opposite effect and it made me agitated and I had weird dreams on it and woke up like a bear that woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I felt hung over. I’ve tried taking the newer sleep meds like Lunesta and felt absolutely drunk the next morning.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
That's exactly how I felt, hung over, not present,
and haven't tried it since because it was so disagreeable. I sometimes take Zopiclone (Ambien) with more satisfying results, even though I know it can be addictive. It's a challenge always to find a way that is satisfying and agreeable with our individual nature.
Doctors Supporting the Freedom Convoy 2022
I doubt that these "public health officials" will show up.
What does science have to do with the Truckers Convoy?
They are acting on the political policy of forced injections. Mandates. Period.
And, maybe they hate wearing masks. And are having a big pout about it.
People should be encouraged to do whatever it takes to avoid becoming infected. It causes brain damage in most. And serious organ damage that will be with them for the rest of their lives.
That's a constructive message.
After this, it's back to the Tea Party, for them. Why are they still there?
All the US states are de-masking and throwing everybody back into the germ pool to breathe each other's snot, just in time for the worst variant yet. Burning its way through Brazil. Meanwhile, from mid-Feb to the end of this month, an additional 75,000 will be dead in the US from the "mild" Omicron, according to the CDC. But that's only if Americans keep their masks on at all times and maintain their social distancing.

Hopefully there are a few individuals in the Freedom Convoy
who have prior experience being thoroughly screwed by sociopaths, such that they will understand that it would be foolish to let their guard down. Klaus Schwab's moles cannot be trusted, ever.
