The story starts with Bill Gates wanting to remove all Carbon Dioxide emissions!
Sometime after 9/11 Bill Gates got involved with Al Gore and the Climate Change movement. Gates took this very seriously and decided to try and stop the destruction of the planet; not realizing that it wasn’t a real threat. The Reason I can say that is I have been studying the problem for well over 20 years now and although the climate does change, it always has so there is nothing new here. The problem is that some of the changes that are in the range of a few degrees up or down are related to decade long movements driven primarily by the 11 year solar cycle. If the reader is interested in that subject check out my monthly climate update posted here in MY Climate research.
Gates lacking a college education doesn’t have the proper background in economics, math, statistics, physics and Climate so he was unduly influenced by others that had a different agenda. The group I am referring to are those that have embraced a version of Marxism that has morphed into a version of Marxism where the leaders of the government are the very educated one’s in society. Those are the ones that have graduated from the best schools like Harvard, MI,T Sanford, Yale, etc. etc. Read the book Technology Rising written by Patrick M. Wood for all the details. These are the “Best and the Brightest” and the want to change the system of government in the United States so that they can save us from ourselves.
This group was infiltrated by the Progressives (just another name for a Marxist) in the country in the early 90’s after the collapse of the old USSR and they got into the Green movement at the same time. The bottom line is that the following groups and organizations are all in bed together and they are being controlled by Bill Gates!
The Democrat party
The Green movement
The Major news organizations
The Open Boarders movement
The Social Justice Movement
The Bill and Missal Gates Foundation
In 20010 Bill Gates did a TED presentation that started the ball rolling.
Dr. Deborah Birx said the CDC math on SARS-CoV-2 deaths was, at least, 25% exaggerated, and no one blinked.
Remdesivir was eventually judged not only to be a “nothing burger,” but a no-taste vegan patty that didn’t satisfy hunger, as it failed field tests with patients.
The New England Journal of Medicine delivered a knockout blow to Gilead Sciences’ attempt to breathe life into one of its failed drugs from the past.
Don’t be surprised when the government scientists push a new candidate offering a symptom-mitigating drug for virus suffers.
The debate surrounding Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)
The debate of Remdesivir v. HCQ started on, or about, Friday, March 20, when Dr. Fauci stepped to the podium during a virus briefing to correct a favorable comment Trump made about HCQ. Fauci said: “You’ve got to be careful when you say ‘fairly effective’. It (HCQ) was never done in a clinical trial…It was given to individuals and felt that maybe it worked.”
The antiviral properties of these drugs have been studied since 2003
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons(AAPS, founded 1943), is one of several physician groups who engaged the debate. It released a report (April 28) stating:
“To date, the total number of reported patients treated with HCQ, with or without zinc and the widely used antibiotic azithromycin, is 2,333, writes AAPS, in observational data from China, France, South Korea, Algeria, and the U.S. Of these, 2,137 or 91.6 percent improved clinically. There were 63 deaths, all but 11 in a single retrospective report from the Veterans Administration where the patients were severely ill.”
“The antiviral properties of these drugs have been studied since 2003. Particularly when combined with zinc, they hinder viral entry into cells and inhibit replication. They may also prevent overreaction by the immune system, which causes the cytokine storm responsible for much of the damage in severe cases, explains AAPS. HCQ is often very helpful in treating autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.”
Their report didn’t conform with the approved narrative. At the time, Fauci was touting the positive impact of Remdesivir on SARS-CoV-2 patients. The Gilead Sciences’ drug was, obviously, his drug of choice.
The Center for Infectious disease Research and Policy, a group within the University of Minnesota that addresses public health preparedness and the response to emerging infectious diseases, reported Fauci’s opinion:
“At the White House, Fauci told reporters that the data presented by an independent data and safety monitoring board showed patients on remdesivir recovered in 11 days, compared with 15 days for patients receiving a placebo. Fauci said the data show that the antiviral, which is not yet licensed or approved, ‘has a clear-cut and significant positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery. ‘Although a 31% improvement doesn’t seem like a knockout 100%, it is a very important proof of concept,’ Fauci said. ‘because what it has proven is that a drug can block this virus.’”
Yet, back in August 22, 2005, in an article in Virology Today, a publication of the National Institute of Health where Dr. Fauci heads the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), there appeared a more positive opinion concerning a more toxic form of HCQ:
“Chloroquine is effective in preventing the spread of SARS CoV in cell culture. Favorable inhibition of virus spread was observed when the cells were either treated with chloroquine prior to or after SARS CoV infection. In addition, the indirect immunofluorescence assay described herein represents a simple and rapid method for screening SARS-CoV antiviral compounds.” (HCQ is a less toxic derivative of chloroquine.)
AAPS, representing the HCQ side of the debate, wrote the following to Governor Doug Ducey of Arizona in the context of a long and detailed defense of HCQ:
“To date, the total number of reported patients treated with HCQ, with or without zinc and the widely used antibiotic azithromycin, is 2,333, writes AAPS, in observational data from China, France, South Korea, Algeria, and the U.S. Of these, 2,137 or 91.6 percent improved clinically. There were 63 deaths, all but 11 in a single retrospective report from the Veterans Administration where the patients were severely ill.”
“The antiviral properties of these drugs have been studied since 2003. Particularly when combined with zinc, they hinder viral entry into cells and inhibit replication. They may also prevent overreaction by the immune system, which causes the cytokine storm responsible for much of the damage in severe cases, explains AAPS. HCQ is often very helpful in treating autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.”
“Additional benefits shown in some studies, AAPS states, is to decrease the number of days when a patient is contagious, reduce the need for ventilators, and shorten the time to clinical recovery.”
“Peer-reviewed studies published from January through April 20, 2020, provide clear and convincing evidence that HCQ may be beneficial in COVID-19, especially when used early, states AAPS. Unfortunately, although it is perfectly legal to prescribe drugs for new indications not on the label, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has said that CQ and HCQ should be used for COVID-19 only in hospitalized patients in the setting of a clinical study if available. Most states are making it difficult for physicians to prescribe or pharmacists to dispense these medications.”
“…Many nations, including Turkey and India, are protecting medical workers and contacts of infected persons prophylactically. According to worldometers.info, deaths per million persons from COVID-19 as of Apr 27 are 167 in the U.S., 33 in Turkey, and 0.6 in India.”
So, HCQ has a proven track record of working. Unfortunately, though, the most serious attention to HCQ came from New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo, and the governors of Michigan and Nevada. They all banned HCQ use in their states.
Trump shifted the debate on May 18
CNN was one of several sites to break this story—but they couldn’t do it without spinning a bias against HCQ.
“President Donald Trump claimed Monday he is taking daily doses of hydroxychloroquine, a drug he’s long touted as a potential coronavirus cure even as medical experts and the US Food and Drug Administration question its efficacy and warn of potentially harmful side effects.” {snip}
“‘A couple of weeks ago, I started taking it,’ Trump said. He later said he’d been taking it every day for a week and a half. The admission was a dramatic development in Trump’s attempts to promote hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for coronavirus, which began earlier in the outbreak and has been met with resistance from medical professionals. Because the drug is prescribed to treat malaria and other conditions, Trump has cast it as safe and suggested coronavirus patients have little to lose by trying it. But at least one study has shown the drug does not work against Covid-19 and could cause heart problems.”
That last anecdotal comment by CNN sniped HCQ claiming it causes heart attacks. Unproven accusation, as in Fake News.
Much of the media treated Trump’s use of HCQ as breaking news, implying that he’d done something not authorized by his physician. But, back on March 30, National Public Radio had announced that:
“Over the weekend [March 28-29] the Food and Drug Administration granted two malaria drugs ‘emergency use authorization’ for the treatment of COVID-19. The move makes it easier to add the medicines to the strategic stockpile, which can be drawn upon in the current public health emergency. The drugs — chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine — have been identified as potential COVID-19 treatments based on lab tests and small, limited studies in humans.”
How can all this not be seen, so far, as an abysmal failure on the part of the highly-touted, multi-degreed, lab-coated denizens of the halls of big government medical institutions?
Perhaps not all reporters listen to NPR.
On May 14, in a long and detailed National Institute of Health press release entitled “NIH begins clinical trial of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin to treat COVID-19, Study enrolling adults with mild to moderate COVID-19 in the United States,” after tens of thousands of Americans had died from SARS-CoV-2, the NIH department run by Dr. Fauci announced that:
“A clinical trial has begun to evaluate whether the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, given together with the antibiotic azithromycin, can prevent hospitalization and death from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, is sponsoring the trial, which is being conducted by the NIAID-funded AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG). Teva Pharmaceuticals is donating medications for the study.”
Here was the purpose of the new NIH study that came too late for thousands of virus victims.
“The main objective of the study is to determine whether hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin can prevent hospitalization and death due to COVID-19.”
It’s time to consider the opinion of one of the world’s oldest (founded 1823) and best-known peer-reviewedgeneral medical journals concerning the search for an antiviral drug for SARS-CoD-2. On April 29, after four months of life with the virus, The Lancet declared that:
“No specific antiviral drug has been proven effective for treatment of patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)”.
So much for all the Remdesivir happy-talk from Fauci and Gilead Sciences.
Here’s a question: How can all this not be seen, so far, as an abysmal failure on the part of the highly-touted, multi-degreed, lab-coated denizens of the halls of big government medical institutions?
In Part 5, the YouTube Thought Police work to suppressdissention from the state-approved science of combating SARS-CoV-2.
These images are what the malice of medical martial law looks like. Don’t look away. It was your consent that allowed them to do this. Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill DeBlasio needed you in a constant state of fear: You’ll get sick, arrested, lose your license. You must wear a mask, social distancing is for your safety. As soon as a majority of New Yorkers come together and simply ignore their dictates, the sooner we’ll all go back to work.
The people have been locked down. The jobs are gone. The beat is dead. The streets are empty
These pictures were taken on the 18th of May from approximately 8:00 through 9:30am, where on a typical Monday morning ten-thousand-busy-people, taxi horns, a braking truck, distant sirens, each contributing to that undeniable beat that gives life to The Big Apple. On any other Monday morning, they would have hustled, honked or shifted their way past the camera’s lens, impatiently working their way through the maze. Don’t look away. The people have been locked down. The jobs are gone. The beat is dead. The streets are empty. You now know the virus has always been a hoax. You knew they lied, yet you acquiesced and, to keep you in line and retain their power, they declared medical martial law.
How much longer will you allow them to control your lives like this? By you doing nothing, or allowing this assault on your freedoms and livelihood to continue, you are making a conscious decision. You can choose to stay home when others decide it’s time to return to work. You can continue to wear a face mask, when others no longer believe that breathing-back-in their own carbon dioxide is healthy. If you are still attempting to flatten-the-curve with social distancing, that too is fine. It’s called freedom! And, as Americans, we celebrated Memorial Day for those who made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve our freedoms. America has always been and will always be the home of the free because of the brave.

Cuomo, DeBlasio, along with other power-obsessed-Democrats plundered monies from the CARES Stimulus Act to kill the city that never sleeps
Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill ‘Warren Wilhelm’ DeBlasio, along with other power-obsessed-Democrats plundered monies from the CARES Stimulus Act to kill the city that never sleeps. And with it, the rhythm of every-foot-fall, the freedoms and livelihoods of ten-million-fold, emptying the streets of The City, and silencing the beat of its people—all for the heinous-minded-objective of destroying the MAGA economy of President Donald Trump, with its 3.5% unemployment.
Cuomo and friends’ pre-planned and executed COVID-19 deception has been more successful than their wildest imagination, this as they continue to carry out the greatest and most effective PSYOP in the history of the world. Psychological operations are put in place to disrupt, confuse, influence the emotions, and ultimately the behavior of groups or individuals. After many years of experimenting, they finally found the most effective way of controlling the behavior of large scale populations—through fear! Fear of an invisible, highly-communicable-disease, where the safety of others became paramount. The most amazing part of their PSYOP deception was their ability to lockdown in self-quarantine young healthy adults with little to no resistance.
Grand Central Terminal at East 42nd Street and Park Avenue. Please note the clock in the center reads 9:20 A.M.
That well-known-face on your TV screen has been lying to you from the first moment that the words coronavirus were spoken. They are highly paid to spread the propaganda of how social distancing and wearing a face mask was for the safety of others, with constant levels of fear that you yourself might get sick and die. Their plan progressed along with Cuomo and friends, using manipulation, and confusion to weaponize an invisible, deadly virus as the boogeyman where only government can be trusted to save the people from their certain death.
They know that they are outnumbered thousands to one, and the only way for their ruse to survive is through continued deception and false narratives designed to keep weak-minded gullible people hidden away in fear. The virus is a hoax, and the sooner you come to realize this the better you will feel. Go back to work.
How easily they were able to pull off this massive PSYOP scam will be discussed in courts of law and in civil law books for the next hundred years. But, for our purposes today, our current dilemma began in the wake of the Wuhan coronavirus, as the $2.2 Trillion CARES stimulus package made its way through congress, where Nancy Pelosi’s first lieutenant, Rep. Jim Clyburn reminded her of what he called, “…a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.”
This is Rockefeller (ROCK) Center at 5th Avenue, between 48th and 51st Streets. It is so very hard for me to look at these pictures. Cuomo and DeBlasio Killed the City That Never Sleeps….
Cuomo’s persistence for a higher-death-count did not stop with fraudulent death certificates
And, restructure they did. Hidden in the CARES stimulus package was a stipulation that allowed Pelosi, Schumer and the Democratic leadership to give hospitals, especially in New York City, large incentives of additional money, to falsify the number of deaths associated with the COVID-19 virus. The hospital administrator saw a windfall opportunity and took it, by demanding that the hesitant, yet-go-along-doctors, sign the death certificates of all suicides, traffic accident victims, shootings, and cancer victims, all as COVID-19 deaths. DeBlasio and Cuomo’s death-numbers had to remain high in order to justify keeping New York City locked down, as citizens quarantined themselves away in fear that, if they were to venture out without their mask, they would become the virus’ next victim.
But, Cuomo’s persistence for a higher-death-count did not stop with fraudulent death certificates, he needed more! His search soon found the perfect home, by using the most vulnerable senior citizens, often with underlying chronic medical conditions, he began dumping COVID-19 patients into unprepared nursing homes. His efforts were quickly rewarded with over 5,600 additional deaths, which became a significant amount of New York State’s total deaths from the coronavirus.
And, as if additional proof was needed that Cuomo, DeBlasio and friends have become totally unaccountable to the people, when criticized for dumping sick patients in nursing homes, the arrogant Cuomo sneered back that he was merely following the recommendations set forth by the CDC, as if saying almost child like under his breath, “See, you can’t blame me…”
Their COVID-19 deception by the globalist and Democratic governors/mayors became an exquisite subterfuge of government control
Their COVID-19 deception by the globalist and Democratic governors/mayors became an exquisite subterfuge of government control which, simultaneously, accomplished a multitude of other objectives “…to restructure things to fit our vision.”
COVID-19 lockdown has now given them a controlled monetary depression to counterbalance the coming hyper-inflationary cycle, so that fault can be diverted away from the bankers, as they continue printing their fiat currencies. Fiat, meaning currencies by decree, such as the $2.2 trillion dollar stimulus, with all those ‘0’s that suddenly popped up onto government computer screens. And, “to restructure things to fit our vision” we’ll make sure that the people get $0.04 cents of each stimulus dollar we spend. And, Nancy replied to Jim, “We are so smart! The people are so stupid!
And, on all us stupid people, they turned their martial law into house-arrest-quarantine where they abolished our First Amendment rights of religious freedom, our freedom of speech, and the right to freedom of peaceful assembly for redress of grievances against our government, and this was all done because our government is no longer accountable to the people. It has been easy to take freedom for granted, when we’ve never had it taken from us before. Now is the time to take it back. Now is the time to show them that we are not stupid. Go back to work. If you are an employer, or pass this on to your employer, call your Human Resources, or call them yourself. It time for THE PEOPLE to get back to work.
A recent study by JP Morgan is now proving that infection rates have declined in states where lockdowns have ended. Stop believing their lies! Go back to work and to hell with Cuomo and DeBlasio.
A long-held musical tradition at military funerals, the music of Taps originated from a Civil War bugle call entitled, “Extinguish Lights”. A plaintive call, the sounding of Taps signals the end of the fallen serviceman’s duty and is the final tribute from a grateful nation.
To those who have given the last full measure of devotion, we honor your service, pay tribute to your lives, and thank you for your selfless sacrifice.
The Bugler is Technical Sgt. Jason Covey. The location is Culpeper National Cemetery

“Today we honor the extra ordinary sacrifice of not only these service members, but also their families–especially our Gold Star families. Each individual loss brings untold grief. Each loss is a hope never realized. Each loss is a dream never reached.”
“Every one was a son or a daughter. A husband or a wife. A mother or a father. Each is a gaping hole of grief that can never be adequately filled.”
“For the families of the fallen we are here to remember that for them every day is Memorial Day.”
President Donald Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Vice-President Mike Pence and Second Lady Karen Pence, together with Defense Secretary Mark Esper, lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington to honor Memorial Day.
Wearing a white suit coat and white heels First Lady Melania stood at the center steps of the amphitheater steps during the ceremony. Also in the amphitheater was Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao & Treasury Secretary Mnuchin.
This is a modified re-post from last year. I love the video and I cannot top it, so I offer it again.
.
Today all across this great land we call America, we pause to remember those who have fallen. We give thanks for their final sacrifice, for their love of country, and we say prayers for them, for their families, for the country they serve. We fly flags to honor their service, to observe our own dedication to America.
However, being the ever optimistic Americans we are, we have turned this day formerly known as Decoration Day into a nation wide party, a celebration of patriotism, family, summer’s promise, and just any old other thing we choose it to be, but in some places like our little town Memorial Day is still about the fallen servicemen and women who gave their lives for our country.
Tracking the origins of Memorial Day proves to be a somewhat difficult task. Some attribute it to former African slaves paying tribute to fallen Union soldiers. There is strong evidence that women of the South were decorating graves before the end of the Civil War. On May 30, 1868, flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery. By 1890 all the northern states were observing the day. The South would not observe the same date until after World War I, when it became more than an observance recognizing those fallen in the Civil War.
So, it took another war to unite Americans in remembrance of those fallen heroes.
Stubborn aren’t we? Memorial Day is specifically a day to honor our fallen who died while serving in our Armed Forces. Nevertheless, it reminds me of many trips to the cemetery as a child.
Here in the South, I grew up visiting the cemetery on birthdays, holidays, and whenever my mother felt a need to connect with those gone from her – but never forgotten.
Each visit to the cemetery (my mother never let us call it a graveyard) was a fascinating experience to me as a child, and sometimes we visited, or at least drove by the National Battlefield.
We drove past it everyday on the way to my dad’s business and I always used to watch for the large flag to be at half mast. I knew then that a soldier or sailor had died, or sometimes it signified a national loss like the Apollo 1 tragedy or the loss of a president, as I remember the death of President Kennedy.
There was a protocol to the visit. Always walk around the plots, never step on one. Wander away as my mother knelt in the grass coaxed lovingly into growth in the red Georgia clay. Look first for relatives, those my mother spoke of, and those strange names I was unfamiliar with. Look for the little stone with the lamb on top – the resting place of my mother’s baby sister, Carole. Look for more lambs and little angels – they were dotted around the older section with alarming frequency, something I noticed even as a child. Take note of all the flowers.
It was a fine thing for a family to have many who remembered to honor their dead. I also very vividly remember the little American flags stuck in the ground on days such as Memorial Day and the Fourth of July.
Not too long ago, I found a small cemetery with a mass grave of Confederate soldiers who mostly died of an outbreak, possibly flu, during the war. Those little flags had been put in the ground around the few individual markers. I wondered if they minded that 50 star flag, or if they were grateful to be remembered, honored, prayed over.
It was something I lived with as a child, this presence of the dead. I never thought much about it until recently. Here you literally cannot stray far outside your own yard without encountering some reminder of the war fought on this soil, and those fallen. As a child, many of our parents remembered grandparents who fought in the war. It is alive for us, and so has colored how we honor our dead, those who have fallen in battle, and those who in the words of many a fire and brimstone preacher, “The LORD has called home to be with HIM.” Believe me, no disrespect intended, just an indication of a little local flavor.
And so, I find myself wondering. Is this a southern thing? Is it an American thing? Or is it something common to all of us, this need to return to the place we left our loved ones for the final time on this earth? Is it a regional custom, tied deep in the roots we are so tangled in, or a need born with our souls? I think it must be the latter, with a twist of regional observances that may vary from place to place, but sooth the heart of those who wait here, on this side.
Perhaps, after all is said and done, it meets our needs more than just paying respect to the dead. We wander there, among those peaceful plots, wondering, imagining, where are they? How is it there? When will my time come? Will I be with them again? Then, that most human of all questions. Who will honor me in my time, when I lay beneath the grass coaxed lovingly into growth in the red Georgia clay?
In Ringgold volunteers work for several weeks to place the poles and crosses you saw in the video. You can even get a list of names and locations so that families can locate the cross for their own loved one. We Remember, we honor, we celebrate. I sure hope we always will.
I hope you enjoyed the video of my former hometown. I could not have been more proud to have lived in a place like this little town. I am happy to say that the neighborhood I live in now also places crosses and flags to honor our fallen, not quite as spectacular a display as the town of Ringgold, but volunteers come together to honor those from this community who gave their lives for our freedom, and they have not been forgotten or gone unappreciated.
Yet, what of today? Are Americans not in a civil war? Are Socialists not testing whether this nation, “conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal…” will continue to endure?
In recent years, Memorial Day in the United States was just another holiday for American citizens to enjoy fun things people did over the three-day holiday weekend, which also marked the unofficial commencement of summertime. It was not considered too seriously across the social spectrum. This year is different. This year citizens are coping with the COVID-19 Pandemic, the various reactions to the virus and repercussions, and realities in states where Big Brother is cracking down on conservatives, and patriots, and people of faith, for the sake of “public health and safety.”
Memorial Day was born from the ashes and loss from the American Civil War
Indeed, Memorial Day this year may be taken much more seriously across the nation—possibly as serious as it was long, long ago. Memorial Day is actually a day to honor the dead. Yet, like the topic of death itself, Memorial Day tends to conjure up issues people would rather not discuss. It used to be easier to throw a party, a barbeque, or take an early mini-vacation as a way of celebrating a three-day holiday with family and friends. Thinking about the deeper meaning of Memorial Day was difficult. If taken seriously, as in days long past, it was a day to honor those who offered their lives for the sake of a higher cause.
If taken in a serious way, the original purpose of Memorial Day was meant to grapple with the painful experience of the nation’s massive loss of life. Memorial Day was born from the ashes and loss from the American Civil War. Sadly, over 620,000 men and boys died in the Civil War. The incredibly painful reality of the loss of so many men and boys prompted the Veteran’s Association to implement “Decoration Day,” to honor all Union soldiers “who… gave their lives that the nation might live…” It was a practical means for families and survivors to officially mourn and honor lost family and loved ones.
Today, in the midst of the COVID-19 assault upon the world, the U.S. death toll is close to 100,000 American lives. The statistics do not do justice to the loss of a loved one’s life in such a time. The sobering circumstances should give people of conscience a genuine reason to pause and consider the value of life itself. This is what happened in the wake of the Civil War. Today, in the midst of COVID-19, men and women who truly recognize the value of life should take the time to pause and consider the value of life itself. Yet, in deepest sincerity, it is also a time to recognize the difference between those who gave their lives willingly to those who died as victims of disease.
From the moment of the “shot heard ’round the world” to the “War on Terrorism,” American patriots have been willing to take up arms to fight for freedom
Ultimately, Memorial Day continues to represent a day to remember and to honor the sacrifice of those who gave their lives in service to their country. The day was meant to be a day of remembrance to deal with the void from such a massive loss of human lives. Yet, years beyond America’s potential self destruction, citizens were willing to give their lives for the sake of other people’s freedom even on distant battlefields on foreign soil. In fact, from the moment of the “shot heard ’round the world” to the “War on Terrorism,” American patriots have been willing to take up arms to fight for freedom.
In their own day, brave and brilliant men gave their lives that this nation might be born. In their own day, Union soldiers sacrificed their lives so the nation could survive. Through much of American history, brave and brilliant men and women, in their own day, could heed the call to defend and protect Freedom. However in recent years, since the U.S. involvement in Vietnam, Americans have been confused with mixed meanings of freedom. Others have sought to define freedom for us, and citizens have doubted our bedrock values. From the days of the Vietnam War and the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Americans have drifted once again into serious division.
Today, America is obviously divided. And as Abraham Lincoln said, in quoting Jesus, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” It is true. Yet, it is also quite true that America resolved one of its deepest contradictions: slavery. Abraham Lincoln knew that the problem of slavery had to be rectified, but it came at great cost. And, his impassioned veneration of the Union patriots in his Gettysburg Address has reverberated through the ages. Yet now, his true sentiments need to be taken up once again, as citizens need to remember why Memorial Day is important:
Are Americans not in a civil war?
We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live…
But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate – we cannot consecrate — we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract… It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom…
Yet, what of today? Are Americans not in a civil war? Are Socialists not testing whether this nation, “conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal…” will continue to endure? Will Americans take up the unfinished work, so nobly advanced in years past? Is it not for us, living in this time, to be dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from all of America’s honored dead, we take increased devotion – to resolve that those who gave their lives shall not have died in vain? Did they die only to see this generation allow freedom to die? Will this nation, under God, have a new birth of freedom? Or, will evil triumph because good men and women could not sense the value of sacrificing one’s self for the sake of the future?
A dozen years ago, or there about, Bill Gates became worried about Climate Change and gave a TED talk on what the world had to do to save us from extinction. In that presentation Gates stated that one of the variable in his equation had to go to zero to stop Carbon Dioxide from killing all of us. Now keep in mind that Gates does not have any degrees and knows little about anything but making money with software. We do however recognize that he was very good at that but we must also understand that he had no formal training or studies in anything else.
Gates’ vision is a world with less than a billion people and probably closer to 500 million. This world will be very clean and use only solar PV or Wind to power this Utopia. Everything will be perfect and safe for those that reside in that world. Dreams of that kind are neither practical nor doable but that never stops those that have these visions: like Karl Marx who also had a vision of a perfect world. Unfortunately that vision brought us WW I, WW II and the cold war and hundreds of millions of dead people, and Marxism has still not been eliminate as an evil system.
Gates has merged Marxism, environmentalism, climate change and world health into one system using technology, which he is very good at, that makes George Orwell’s “1984” look like it was done by a rank amateur. If Gates even comes close we will be living in Hell!
Somewhere along the way, two-thirds of America’s foundational trilogy of “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness” abdicated to the first third. So what happened?
The Virus
SARS-CoV-2, also known as the 2019 novel coronavirus, was shortened to COVID-19. Or, to be politically incorrect, the Wuhan Virus or China Virus. And, for the very bold, the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) Virus. SARS means “Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome”.
SARS-CoV-1 was identified in 2003. The search for a vaccine has been underway for 17 years. SARS-CoV-1 is thought to have, perhaps, originated in bats. Perhaps, spread to cats. But surely, first infected humans in the Guangdong province of southern China in 2002.
SARS-CoV-2 is thought, maybe, to have a similar bat pedigree, but with a different point of Chinese entry that spread globally. Whether it was created in a lab, or in nature, is debated.
The Guardians of Public Health
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “works 24/7 to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S.” It opened on July 1, 1946 with 400 employees. In 2018, Forbesreported it had 10,639 “staffers”.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), founded in the late 1880s, is “the primary agency of the United States government responsible for biomedical and public health research”. In 2012, the NIH had 20,262 employees. More current numbers are unreported. Dr. Tony Fauci, age 79, has directed the NIH Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984.
The Private Lab: Gilead Sciences
Snapshot: “Gilead Sciences, Inc., is an American biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Foster City, California that researches, develops and commercializes drugs. The company focuses primarily on antiviral drugs used in the treatment of HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and influenza, including Harvoni and Sovaldi.”
Gilead News Highlights:
August 2, 2012 – “Gilead Sciences inks deals with 3 Indian companies including Ranbaxy Laboratories for low-cost HIV drug” Then, nine months later…
May 13, 2013 – “Generic Drug Manufacturer Ranbaxy Pleads Guilty and Agrees to Pay $500 Million to Resolve False Claims Allegations, cGMP Violations and False Statements to the FDA”
“Ranbaxy USA pleaded guilty to three felony FDCA [Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act] counts, and four felony counts of knowingly making material false statements to the FDA [Food and Drug Administration]. The generic drugs at issue were manufactured at Ranbaxy’s facilities in Paonta Sahib and Dewas, India…[T]he whistleblower, Dinesh Thakur, a former Ranbaxy executive, will receive approximately $48.6 million from the federal share of the settlement amount. The case is U.S. ex rel. Thakur v. Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited, Case No. JFM-07-962 (D. Md.)”
Also reported, “FDA inspectors found tablets with a ‘black fibre’ suspected to be human hair and pills with apparent machinery oil ‘black spots’ at the Mohali plant. Last year, glass was detected in some pills.”
On behalf of Gilead, Ranbaxy Labs cooked-up gnarly drugs.
August 4, 2014 – Two Gilead employees bring accusations against their employer in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ex. rel. CAMPIE et al., Plaintiffs, v. GILEAD SCIENCES, INC., et al., Defendants.
Jeffery Campie was Gilead’s Senior Director of Commercial Quality Assurance, and his wife Sherilyn Campie was an Associate Manager of Quality Control for Gilead.
The two claimed that Gilead had committed “violations of the False Claims Act (“FCA”), 31 U.S.C. § 3729, et. seq., and analogous state statutes and city ordinances, claiming that Gilead defrauded the federal, state, and local governments by selling billions of dollars’ worth of nonconforming drugs, which were paid for through programs like Medicare, Medicaid, and the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief [AKA: PEPFAR]”.
The pair stated that “…Gilead develops, manufactures, and sells drugs used to treat diseases like HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, and cystic fibrosis. Gilead manufactured and distributed drug products that failed to meet applicable specifications because they (1) were contaminated with a host of adulterants, including, but not limited to, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead, nickel, steel, titanium, chromium, iron, cobalt, aluminum, metal shards, glass, rubber, polyethylene (plastic), stones or pebbles, cement, paint, wood fibers and fibrous building materials, organic material, microbes (including bacillus cereus), paper, Teflon, acetaminophen, other degradants, and blood; (2) were improperly manufactured using active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”) [the part of any drug that produces the intended effects] sourced on the cheap from unregistered facilities in China and otherwise in violation of federal law and Good Manufacturing Practices; (3) were subjected to extreme storage and shipping conditions; and (4) lacked proper testing and analysis…These nonconforming drugs were paid for by the government through programs like Medicare, Medicaid and the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.”
November 6, 2019 – “United States Files Patent Infringement Lawsuit Against Gilead Related to Truvada and Descovy for Pre-exposure Prophylaxis of HIV.”
“In the complaint, HHS [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] alleges that Gilead has willfully and deliberatively induced infringement of the HHS patents. The complaint further alleges that, as a result of such infringement, Gilead has profited from research funded by hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars and reaped billions from PrEP [Pre-exposure prophylaxis when people at risk for HIV take daily medicine to prevent HIV] through the sale of Truvada and Descovy.”
In short, the U.S. Government (USG) claims that Gilead infringed upon USG patents by creating drugs that Gilead sold without rendering payment due to the USG for use of its patents. Furthermore, Gilead then sold some of those drugs to the USG. I.e., a kind of double-dipping, or maybe straight theft.
Gilead Recycles Remdesivir
Gilead Sciences is the biopharmaceutical company that today markets Remdesivir. It’s the drug selected, by the government doctors in the white lab coats, to mitigate the symptoms of SARS-CoV-2. It was originally developed to treat Hepatitis C. When it was tested against the Ebola and Marburg virus diseases, it failed to work.
When SARS-CoV-2 came along, Remdesivir was taken off the shelf and used against SARS-CoV-2—not as a cure, but as a stopgap drug to mitigate symptoms. Hence, the Mayor of Los Angeles awaits a vaccine.
So, was all this the birth of a pandemic, born of a plandemic, or a child of both?
To be continued in Part 2 of “Pandemic, Plandemic, or Both?”
Shakespeare famously asked “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” That’s a sentiment that has more or less been constant among sane people since Billy ESS wrote those words 420 years ago. But it seems that there are a lot of individuals that would disagree.
Take the progressive global mind set that insists COVID 19 is the only appropriate and/or legal term for the current pandemic. Those using the term “Wuhan virus” or “Chinese virus” risk being accused of racism and in some jurisdictions incarcerated for using the wrong name for the virus.
Using the term Chinese Virus; that it might somehow reflect badly on China or Chinese people
Don’t believe it? Read on!
Recently the City of San Antonio, whose mayor, Ron Nirenberg, felt it was necessary to ram legislation through council that criminalizes use of the terms Chinese Virus or Wuhan Virus as hate speech. My first reaction was to wonder whether the city was still part of the US, much less, a part of Texas or if it had become a province of Belgium.
At the time the idea seemed so ridiculous that I didn’t take much notice—wrote it off to Fake News.
But then, a couple of days later along comes Sen Kamala Harris (D. CAL) introducing a bill in the Senate that would condemn “all manifestations or expressions of racism, xenophobia, discrimination, anti-Asian sentiment, scapegoating, and ethnic or religious intolerance” and “to expeditiously investigate and document all credible reports of hate crimes, incidents, and threats against the Asian American and Pacific Islander community in the United States.”
This brings me to wonder exactly how this bill would “condemn” the poor sods convicted of these heinous crimes? Are we talking fines? Democrats love fines because it gives them more of other peoples’ money they can give away to buy votes. Would there be jail time for the crime of Intolerance? House arrest? Flogging?
The rationale behind this silliness is the usual blather about using the term Chinese Virus; that it might somehow reflect badly on China or Chinese people.
Progressive Left is attempting to hijack language for political gain
Given the history of how this pandemic came to be, I strongly believe that there should be some pushback against what amounts to knowingly infecting 5 million people globally and counting.
Once again, one sees how the Progressive Left is attempting to hijack language for political gain. There are two check boxes they can tick off with such legislation: Identity Politics and defending Socialism. Classic strategy defined best by George Orwell, who recognized that if you control the terms of reference or the language, then you control the debate.
They’re telling the groups defined in her bill that they need to be protected and the only people that can protect them are Democrats. And by refusing to hold the Government of China accountable for this huge debacle, they are defending the most repressive Socialist regime currently in existence. And somehow that doesn’t bother them.
But to get back to the question of what’s in a name? to paraphrase the Bard, “That which we call COVID 19 by any other name would be just as fatal.” So what difference does it make what it’s called?
