Long-Term Effects of the Vaccines – Great Unknown


Armstrong Economics Blog/Vaccine Re-Posted Sep 13, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Throughout the 1930s and into the 1960s, doctors smoked and even suggested it eased one’s tensions. Cigarettes, in truth, were starting to be linked to lung cancer during the 140s based on studies from epidemiology, animal experiments, cellular pathology, and chemical analytics. Cigarette manufacturers, like Gates and the drug companies today, disputed this evidence and also called it an “orchestrated conspiracy.”  Interesting how that keeps coming up as a defense. Even into the 1960s, only one-third of all US doctors believed that the case against cigarettes had been established.

Here we have Modern admitting they designed their vaccine in just 2 days. The average time for FDA approval for a drug is 12 years. I will stop flying United Airlines for what they have done to the staff. No vaccine, you are put on leave without pay to try to force people to quit to be denied health benefits and any compensation. United Airlines is being ruthless so they just lost my business in our company.

We have ABSOLUTELY no idea what these vaccines will do long-term. Anyone against them is called a conspiracy theorist just as they did against those who were sounding the alarm about smoking. Any company mandating vaccines is simply not protecting their employees and unions no longer represent the people so what should they pay any dues?

Kroger CFO Notes More and Faster Food Inflation Coming in Next Several Months


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 12, 2021 | Sundance | 78 Comments

This is not a surprise data-point for readers here.  However, it is good to see honest statements from corporate executives on what to expect with food inflation.

As noted by Kroger Chief Financial Officer Gary Millerchip in a call with financial media, we can expect to see even more rapid inflation in food prices overall in the next several months:

MSM – Cincinnati-based Kroger Co., which had $132 billion in sales last year, says inflation is running hotter than management previously anticipated and that expectations are now for prices to rise 2% to 3% over the second half of this year.

Kroger is “passing along higher cost to the customer where it makes sense to do so,” said CFO Gary Millerchip on the company’s second-quarter earnings call on Friday. (read more)

The reason for more inflation is not too difficult to understand.  Fresh foods show fast price increases immediately because they have almost no pre-existing inventory.  Fresh foods go from field to fork the fastest, and price increases show up immediately.  The same applies to restaurants.

However, processed foods and shelf stable foods have a deeper inventory, the turns on that inventory take longer, and as a consequence, it takes longer for the price increases to show up.  Millerchip is simply saying the total supply chain price increases are going to hit, and they are going to hit even harder than the last few months, as the new processed inventory carries a higher cost.

The skyrocketing prices at the grocery store are predictable based almost entirely on Joe Biden’s pro-Wall Street and Multinational Corporation policies.  Main Street is getting hammered, and the working class is suffering as a direct result.

Their specific accountability for these outcomes is why the Biden administration is trying to distract and blame COVID-19 for supply chain issues.  However, it is not COVID driving the prices, it’s Joe Biden policies that benefit multinationals.  {Go Deep}

Food products are fast-turn consumable goods, and the inflation in the food sector is jaw-dropping already.  However, fresh and processed foods turn at different inventory levels.

Obviously fresh foods spoil fastest (think produce, fish, meats and dairy), so they are replenished more quickly, and the thin supply chain (field to fork) passes along increased costs fast. Processed foods have a longer shelf life (boxed, canned, frozen, etc), and as a consequence, have a much larger inventory level in manufacturing, warehousing and retail storerooms/shelves.  Within processed foods, there is a lag between cost increase at origination and that cost hitting the stores.

The problem identified within the current ‘producer price index’, is that price increases in the raw material and intermediate material are building into the supply chain.  Keep in mind, the entire supply chain is dependent on energy costs and the fuel prices that impact transportation.

The retail consumer supply chain for manufactured and processed food products includes bulk storage to compensate for seasonality.  There are over 800 commercial and public warehouses in the continental 48 states that store frozen products (2020 data).  The previously processed food price increases are currently reflected on store shelves (already hurting).  However, the coming processed processed food price increases will be much, much higher.  We will see even higher prices on processed foods in the supermarket.

The same price increases happen for restaurants, albeit faster as they follow the similar supply chain to fresh foods.

Pro Tip – Buy your Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday shelf-stable items now (spices, condiments, flour, sugars, dried foods etc.) before the prices go up in the next few months.

COVID Data, Facts Not Fear

Twitter user Jason Bailey [LINK HERE] has done a deep dive into the latest CDC data on SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19).   There is obviously a lot of noise amid the competing COVID narratives, as politicians and media are intent on weaponizing the fear for maximum political value.  Baily provides the links and just looks at the raw data.

CDC COVID Data Here – and Spreadsheets in pdf format ARE HERE

We know that much of the raw data underlying the CDC statistics are inflated by the way the data is collected and manipulated by the hospitals and healthcare system.  However, that said, if we just accept the raw CDC data and evaluate what they are collecting as a way to estimate the risks….here’s the outcome.

♦ Facts as of 9/4/21:

  • TOTAL CASES (US): 40,048,255
  • TOTAL DEATHS (US): 643,858

♦ DEATHS BY AGE:

  • 50-64 years: 106,674 (.27% of total cases)
  • 65-74 years: 144,020 (.36% of total cases)
  • 75-84 years: 173,655 (.43% of total cases)
  • 85+ years: 185,188 (.46% of total cases)

♦ TOTAL DEATHS account for 1.6% of total cases.

  • 78.1% of TOTAL DEATHS are over the age of 65.
  • 94.7% of TOTAL DEATHS are over the age of 50.
  • 6% of TOTAL DEATHS are attributed to Covid only.
  • 94% of TOTAL DEATHS have an average of 2.9 co-morbidities (12/6/20).

Why is COVID-19 being disproportionately hyped as such a dangerous threat, when the reality of the statistical danger is much less than the intense level of hype?   That is the key question.

Lara Logan Notes the OSHA Shift in Record Keeping that Preceded Joe Biden’s Use of The Agency for Vaccine Enforcement


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 12, 2021 | Sundance | 152 Comments

Lara Logan notes how Joe Biden is using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as the compliance mechanism to enforce mandatory COVID vaccination as a requirement for continued employment; and contrasts Biden’s announcement against the earlier press release from OSHA in May of this year.  We wrote about it HERE.

.

May 22, 2021 – “An interesting about-face from the Dept of Labor and OSHA. Previously OSHA stated that any employer who required vaccinations must report adverse reactions as workplace injuries. However, OSHA is now saying they will not “enforce” that record-keeping requirement until May of 2022.”

Essentially, vaccine mandating employers don’t have to start recording vaccination reactions as workplace injuries for another year.   This is a complete reversal from the OSHA position earlier this month.  The rules have now been modified as below:

OSHA – “DOL and OSHA, as well as other federal agencies, are working diligently to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations. OSHA does not wish to have any appearance of discouraging workers from receiving COVID-19 vaccination, and also does not wish to disincentivize employers’ vaccination efforts. As a result, OSHA will not enforce 29 CFR 1904’s recording requirements to require any employers to record worker side effects from COVID-19 vaccination through May 2022. We will reevaluate the agency’s position at that time to determine the best course of action moving forward.” (LINK)

Notice the obtuse wording: “OSHA will not enforce” the recording requirement.   So long as everyone sticks to “don’t ask/don’t tell”, employers will no longer be penalized on their workplace injuries (OSHA log) and/or insurance rate from negative results of mandated, untested, non-FDA approved, vaccines.  (original article link)

It would appear that Lara Logan has good Suspicious Cat instincts…

Sunday Talks, Hillary’s Favorite CIA Spook Admits The Taliban is al-Qaeda


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 12, 2021 | Sundance | 183 Comments

CTH outlines the connections, motives and intents behind the people in our government and the bastardized processes that are underway.  It is a labor of love to explain these inter-connected manipulations and provide clarity.  We do it because The Truth Has No Agenda, and once you see the strings on the marionettes,  you can never unsee them.

Before we get to this video interview [you only need to watch the first 90 seconds], it is important to remember the accurate and historic context for what is taking place.  That is how you see the dots connect.

When it comes to U.S. Foreign Policy – remember, there are fundamentally two factions within the United States government that are constantly creating havoc.  Those factions are represented in the Presidential Seal.  The arrows representing the military (Dept. of Defense) and the olive branch representing the Dept of State and Intelligence apparatus.  They work together creating the mess, but when SHTF they attempt to blame the other team.  In the Afghanistan mess you are seeing the battle between the two factions and their media conscripts.

♦ Team-1, White House, Pentagon and NatSec Council (Alphabet media and Fox News support).  ♦ Team-2, State Dept., CIA and Intelligence Community – The Intelligence Branch of Government – (CNN, CNNi, Washington Post, New York Times, Politico support).   Team-2 has been winning the blame game over Afghanistan.  Mike Morell is supporting Team Two’s effort.

Now watch the first 90 seconds of this interview with former Acting Director the CIA, Mike Morell.  Notice that he is suddenly breaking script from the official White House narrative and admitting publicly the Taliban is al-Qaeda.  WATCH:

Finally someone asks about Bin Laden’s #2 guy, Ayman al-Zawahiri.  CTH has been asking about this guy for months, since the Afghan mess blew up.  Some of you have noted there is a similarity between the Afghan outcome and the Libya/Egypt fiasco that led to the Benghazi attack.  You are correct.

When you look at the actual policy that was being executed, this is where you will find an almost identical outcome between Afghanistan and the former Libya mess.

Mike Morell was put into place by Barack Obama after the Benghazi attack took place.  In the aftermath of the attack; and with massive political issues about to happen; both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton needed to remove CIA Director David Petraeus.  Again, falling back on the construct of the Intelligence Branch of Government – you will note that Obama used former Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate Petraeus under the auspices of a relationship with a journalist named Paula Broadwell {Go Deep}.

Attorney General Eric Holder investigated CIA Director David Petraeus for allowing journalist Paula Broadwell to see and know Petraeus’ scheduling calendar.  That calendar was the “classified information” leak that led to the framework to remove Petraeus.  It was a tenuous stretch but it worked.  Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told Petraeus he needed to step down.

That was how Mike Morell was installed as the Acting CIA Director with the goal to protect Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama from the outcome of covert missile sales to Libyan rebels, that were really al-Qaeda factions in eastern Libya (Beghazi).

The Defense Department (Secretary Bob Gates) did not want to arm the Libyan rebels, because he knew those missiles could be used against our forces.  The State Department, Hillary Clinton, and the CIA, Leon Panetta, conducted the missile sales despite the Pentagon admonitions and refusal to go along with it.  That covert arming of al-Qaeda (AQAP) was “Operation Zero Footprint”.

With the “olive branch” (State Dept/CIA) conducting the operation, the “arrows” (Pentagon) were in the dark.

President Obama was all-in to arm the Muslim Brotherhood (al-Qaeda is a faction); after all, the ‘Arab Spring’ was an ideological shift in the mid-east by the U.S. with the intention to support the Muslim Brotherhood.  The Arab Spring could not have happened without Obama supporting it.  In fact, Obama initiated it with his speech in Cairo Egypt, his first foreign trip.

When it became evident to Defense Secretary Bob Gates what Clinton and Panetta were doing, with Obama’s approval, the defense secretary stepped down.   Bob Gates did not want to participate in shifting the tenuous balance in the mid-east.  President Obama then replaced Bob Gates by moving Leon Panetta from CIA Director to defense secretary.  Panetta was replaced in the CIA by David Petraeus, with Operation Zero Footprint (arming Muslim Brotherhood factions) already taking place.

Everything taking place in Benghazi, Libya, in the fall of 2012 was an outcome of attempting to get the missiles back from al-Qaeda after Gaddaffi was overthrown.  Initially they were going to shift those missiles to the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria, but they lost control over the internal al-Qaeda factions in Syria (al-Nusra, ISIS) and quickly realized this was going to end up in a massively political mess (it was an election year).   Those missiles were showing up everywhere, including Afghanistan, and the U.S. military commanders on the ground had no idea where they were coming from.

It was the urgent shift in policy (Obama, Clinton, Panetta) from supporting al-Qaeda to now cutting them off from weapons they needed, that caused the Libyan al-Qaeda elements, to turn against Ambassador Chris Stevens and attack the compound in Benghazi.

Turkish Diplomat Consul General Ali Sait Akin made one last trip to see Ambassador Chris Stevens to ask him to support the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria by continuing with the agreement already in place.   When Stevens told him the U.S. policy had shifted, Ali Sait Akin left the Benghazi compound and within minutes the attack began.

The U.S. Generals had no idea what was happening in Benghazi because the entire operation was State Department and CIA.  The Pentagon was clueless.  When the contracted CIA security reached out for help during the Benghazi attack, the U.S. military -specifically AFRICOM General Carter Ham- was caught off-guard because they never knew about the Benghazi operations in the first place.

Can you see a parallel to what happened recently in Afghanistan?

The State Department, CIA and Intelligence Community (writ large), aka “Team-Two” were in charge of Kabul in an almost identical way they were in charge of Benghazi.  When they lose control and everything starts going sideways, and they come under terrorist attacks, they shift blame to the Pentagon (Team-One).

What Mike Morell is doing in that interview is protecting the intelligence system from which he came.   This is a similar motive he had for defending Hillary Clinton in the aftermath of Benghazi.

There is a stunning amount of hubris evident in Morell now when he admits the Taliban are al-Qaeda.   Essentially the State Dept/CIA now saying of course they knew the Taliban were al-Qaeda; which is only a position they take today out of their need to shift the blame for Afghanistan to the Pentagon and White House (remember, Biden is disposable).

The U.S. State Department, CIA and Intelligence Community are the Deep State.  They form the Fourth Branch of Government.

I’ll repeat it here, only because I know it makes Team Two flinch to read the truth….  The Taliban, al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, ISIS, ISIS-k, are all under the umbrella of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The defacto head of al-Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahiri (pictured below left with Bin Laden), is being protected by the Taliban in Afghanistan.  Ayman is the brother of Mohamed al-Zawahiri (below right) who is he head of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Remember, CNN is the outlet for public relations for the U.S. State Department.  Most foreign governments view CNN as state media for the U.S. government, which is not an inaccurate way to look at them.

However, if you want to really connect the dots… watch this interview between CNN’s Nic Robertson and Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed al-Zawahiri, and notice the date of this interview.  This interview took place on September 10th, 2012.  One day before the Brotherhood launched the attack on the Benghazi compound.

Hope that helps.

Sheriff Wayne Ivey in Brevard County, Florida, releases shocking video of an officer involved shooting that took place August 30th.  The video was released September 10th and shows just how dangerous it is to be a police officer.

During a traffic stop a career felon with outstanding warrants was a passenger seated in the rear of the vehicle.  When the officers instructed him to exit the vehicle, the suspect immediately pulls out a short barrelled rifle and starts shooting at the officers.   A total of 61 shots were fired in the exchange.

Never Forget 9/11 Was An Inside Job

It has been 20 years since the World Trade Towers went down due to jet fuel supposedly melting steel beams, but what you probably won’t hear mentioned on the corporate media is anything about World Trade Center Building 7. The building was not hit by a plane flown by terrorists, but it collapsed regardless. The lying ‘authorities’ claim it was due to fire, which was not remotely hot enough to melt the steel frame. Architects and engineers have told us there is no way the building could have collapsed into its own footprint as it did. Not without help. The only logical explanation is a pre-arranged demolition with explosives.

There are many witnesses who heard a countdown, followed by a loud boom emanating from beneath the building. It feel in a classic manner aligned with a planned demolition. One news channel announced it had collapsed before it happened. They jumped the script.

If the building was set to be imploded in advance, then we know for sure that operatives within our government knew about the planned terrorist attack. They used and leveraged the attack to their advantage. Building 7 contained important SEC and IRS documents as well as false fronts in the building that were operated by the CIA. Both Rumsfeld and Cheney were board members with Salomon Smith Barney, which occupied 10 floors of the building. Yet, unbelievably, Rumsfeld claimed he didn’t know what Building 7 was after it collapsed.

Building 7 is key because it was intentionally brought down and blamed on terrorism. In reality, its destruction was likely commanded by powerful, dominant men such as Rumsfeld and Cheney. George W. Bush may have been in on it, but it’s more likely he was merely a spokesman like Biden is now.

The attack on the Pentagon is also greatly suspect. Even trained pilots could not have flown a commercial jet at such high speeds and then somehow circled down to run horizontally into the side of the Pentagon. The evidence points to the use of a missile.

The end result was war. Trillions of dollars and thousands of American lives were wasted on the war in Afghanistan—a war that was impossible to win. We should have left after Bin Laden was taken out in Pakistan, but even that is suspect. There was no evidence that Bin Laden was involved in the 9-11 attacks and strong evidence suggests he was already dead due to kidney failure. Even more suspicious was his burial at sea. That was not done according to Muslim customs, but rather it was a facile way of eliminating evidence.

Still, it is Building 7 that is the smoking gun. Our intelligence communities already knew the attack was coming and it was used to usher in war abroad and tyranny at home. The Patriot Act took away our privacy, while the TSA took away our dignity. Our Fourth Amendment was crushed. Now the globalists are using the cold and flu against us. The coronavirus is being used to complete our enslavement, a process which began well before 9-11.

Was 9/11 the start of the “Great Reset”?

May all the victims of that day rest in peace. May the perpetrators within our own government rot in Hell.

— Ben Garrison

Fauci Has no Answer why to Force People Who Had Covid to Vaccinate


Armstrong Economics Blog/Opinion Re-Posted Sep 11, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Marty; I had covid-19 and it was like the flu. Why do I have to now get vaccinated? I have never heard of getting the flu and then the doctor tells you to get the vaccine after the fact. I agree something is not right. This must be part of some sinister agenda. Any ideas?

HU

ANSWER: What you have said is true. I have NEVER heard any doctor tell you to get the flu shot after you ready had the flu. Fauci’s response to that question shows his bias. He is not about to concede anything. He told CNN:

“I don’t have a really firm answer for you on that.”

Fauci went on to say it was a question now of  “durability” but the vaccines need booster shots every 6 months and maybe daily pills.
