Senator Ray Lujan from New Mexico suffered a stroke recently. Thankfully, despite the seriousness of his medical situation, he is expected to make a recovery. However, he will likely miss all U.S. Senate work for at least a month. Lujan’s absence creates a significant issue for Senate Democrats in an upper chamber with a 50/50 split.
Lujan suffered the stroke last Thursday, on the same day Joe Biden announced the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. The news of Senator Lujan’s major medical condition has been essentially quiet.
With Joe Biden expecting to nominate a Supreme Court justice very soon, the senator’s absence could be problematic.
However, not to worry, creepy Joe’s recent praise of Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham will likely assist.
WASHINGTON DC – […] While the 49-year-old New Mexico Democrat is expected to make a full recovery, no one knew when he would return to the evenly divided Senate, or what it means for the immediate agenda.
Luján’s unexpected medical condition comes at a moment when Senate Democrats simply don’t have any votes to spare to pass party priorities, including reviving their social spending bill and now confirming a Supreme Court justice. The latest news could leave Democrats reliant on Republican votes to move forward on nominees and other priorities.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Tuesday evening that Democrats are “grateful” that Luján will make a “full recovery” and that he looks forward to his return to the Senate. He predicted that “the Senate will be able to carry forward with its business.”
Carlos Sanchez, Luján’s chief of staff, said that the senator checked himself into a hospital Thursday afternoon in Santa Fe after experiencing dizziness and fatigue. The senator later learned he had suffered a stroke and had to undergo decompressive surgery. (read more)
President Biden: "Mitch [McConnell], I don't want to hurt your reputation, but we really are friends, and that is not an epiphany we're having here at the moment. You've always done exactly what you've said, you're a man of your word. and you're a man of honor." pic.twitter.com/w9J0tDBO05
If you watch anything today, this is it. AP Journalist Matt Lee has been around for a long time. He’s the consistent person in the State Department briefing room who understands the deep state institutional games, and he knows how to spot narrative engineering.
Earlier today State Department Spokesman Ned Price said, “The United States has information that Russia is planning to stage fabricated attacks by Ukrainian military or intelligence forces as a pretext for a further invasion of Ukraine.”
Journalist Matt Lee then asked Ned Price what the declassified evidence was that the state dept was referring to. Price responded that he just gave it to the audience; meaning his word was the evidence. Matt Lee calls bullshit on Price, and things got really interesting. WATCH:
Folks, the intelligence state, the Fourth Branch of Government, is making it all up. Everything about this Russian looming attack narrative has been manufactured out of whole cloth by the Intelligence Community and Biden administration.
The statements and position by Ned Price are transparently absurd. Ridiculously so. Matt Lee calling the bluff on the U.S. State Department, and comparing them to Alex Jones conspiracy theorists, is peak insanity. No one trusts the U.S. government institutions any longer. Everyone knows the “intelligence state” makes stuff up to steer and control events. It’s a joke.
Russia is likely not doing anything, likely doesn’t even have a threatening posture, but yet, inside the DC bubble we are on the precipice of a thermonuclear war. We have passed through the looking glass, and now we are in bizarro world.

As the Ottawa police chief ponders the deployment of the Canadian military to remove protestors and is concerned that more protest groups are likely to arrive in support of the existing convoy, city officials in Quebec have deployed a proactive strategy – block the streets with city trucks.
Quebec City officials have moved municipal trucks into place to block the streets from protest trucks. Yes Alice, Canadian officials are blocking the streets with trucks in order to stop trucks from blocking the streets. Brilliant!
Meanwhile, as many of the locals join in celebration and merriment with the protest groups, some of the more leftist Ottawans are now protesting at the police department for not removing the protestors. They accuse the Freedom protestors of “running amok.”
(Via CBC) – […] Rhys McGaw, a downtown resident, and others gathered for a second night on Wednesday to object to what they view as inaction by police. “In my neighbourhood, on my street, down the street, in the stores of Centretown or Lowertown — that’s where people are just running amok,” McGaw said.” (more)
Despite earlier requests by city officials for the Canadian military to get involved, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says -from his secret bunker- that’s “not in the cards.” Trudeau also doubled down on his position that he will not negotiate with the Freedom Convoy protestors.
However, the prime minister did affirm that RCMP officials will be present in Ottawa to provide safe space emotional counseling for residents experiencing trauma and psychological violence committed by the scruffy and unmasked working-class horde now occupying Parliament Hill.
(Via CBC) – […] When asked if he’d ever consider negotiating directly with the protesters to get them to leave, Trudeau said that vaccine mandates were debated in detail during the September federal election.
“That is the decision Canadians took in the last election, by voting for parties that were supporting those mandates,” he told a virtual news conference Thursday.
“So having a group of people who disagree with the outcome of an election, who want to go a different way and bring in an alternative government, is a non-starter in a responsible democracy.” (read more)
Between January 2013 and February 2022, Jeff Zuckerberg has been running CNN. He has now at last resigned after a disastrous job performance. Zuckerberg turned his personal hatred of Donald Trump into a vendetta. Fox News made history in January 2022 as it became the first cable news network to top the charts for 20 years in a row. That score was in terms of both total average viewers and in the key 25-54 age demographic. CNN network’s overall drop in year-over-year ratings was greater than its competitors.
MSNBC was down 60% in total viewers and 75% in the demographics for daytime programming compared to 2021. During the prime time slot, the MSNBC network was down 56% in total viewers and 73% in the demographics.
CNN meanwhile came in down 74% in total viewers and 81% in the demographics. During the daytime viewers, it was down 77% in total viewers and 82% down in the demographics during prime time.
The real word on the street is Zuckerberg’s leadership has taken CNN from #1 to dead last. Before Zuckerberg, CNN had branded itself around reporting resources and its global reach. CNN turned its back on in-depth story packages and live event coverage. PEW research found that overall the networks began using cheaper, more provocative debate forums or interviews to grab ratings. No longer was reporting the news the real objective, Zuckerberg turned CNN into yellow journalism and just launched an opinion-oriented service abandoning independent news.
Zuckerberg has successfully taken CNN from the #1 slot to dead last. His departure over the internal sex affair, where she remains but he leaves, is the cover story for his failure in running CNN and destroying it’s the once-famous tagline: “The Most Trusted Name in News.”
CNN was founded in 1980 and as it heads into its 43 years cyclical low (5 x 8.6) due in 2023, perhaps we will see a turnaround getting back to independent news or just close up shop altogether.
Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson has more Democrats tuning into his show than CNN or MSNBC. Just maybe, most Democrats are middle of the road and do not support these crazy policies of defunding the police and the WOKE movement. They do not support people like George Soros trying to pour money into the Defund Police Movement that has created total chaos in California, Chicago, and New York City. This is not the vision of America they want to leave their children where it is no longer safe to walk into a store or down the street.
In an act of solidarity with their northern neighbors, US truckers are amassing to form the Convoy to DC. The Facebook page, which is currently inaccessible at the time of this writing, hosted over 131,000 followers. The dates have not been set yet, but the group is aiming to start a convoy that will begin in California and end in front of Washington, DC. The group is urging everyone, regardless of occupation, to join them in an act of civil disobedience.
“We’re done with the mandates, we’re done with the government telling us what to do, we will continue, and we will follow just like the rest of the world on these trucker protests, and they will be 100 percent legal, they will abide by the law,” Brian Von D, a trucker a group organizer, said. “The government overreach is coming to an end, and this is how we do it.” Facebook may be censoring the group for now, but if people feel passionate about the cause then they will find a way to organize effectively.
Various Canadian provinces have begun repealing their ridiculous mandates. The protest in Canada has been effective.
The agenda must be clear in order for the protest to be effective — repeal all mandates! The protestors would like to have a peaceful ride to DC but should be wary of false flags and people infiltrating their protest (see: Ray Epps). Resistance is not futile.
Quebec Premier François Legault realized that the mandates are dividing Canadians in a profound way. In order to protect “social cohesion,” Legault is eliminating plans to tax the unvaccinated. Legault initially stated that he wanted the tax to be “significant” in order to force nearly 10% of unvaccinated Quebecers to take the shot. After seeing the persistence of the Freedom Convoy that is certainly not a “small fringe minority” as Trudeau suggested, the plan to tax the unvaccinated has been scrapped. Politicians do not want to face the wrath of the people as Trudeau is currently experiencing. “I understand that this divides Quebecers and right now we need to build bridges,” stated Legault. “My role is to try to bring Quebecers together to stay united as a people.”
Quebec Liberal leader Dominique Anglade declared that Legault “came up with this idea that was not only irresponsible, that was not thought through, that didn’t have any legal support to it.” This comes on the tail of public health director, Dr. Horacio Arruda, stepping down from his 12-year career amid controversy. Some accuse Legault of attempting to implement the tax as a way to distract the public from the scandal. He never presented a clear plan to implement the tax and failed to say exactly how much the tax would cost otherwise law-abiding citizens.
Regardless, politicians are beginning to learn that they do not have unlimited authority. The people will not allow that to happen. The “do this or else” fear tactics are fading along with Fascist dreams to create a new world that no one agreed to participate in.
Now Switzerland is abolishing COVID restrictions. More and more countries are waking up to this insanity. I have had numerous calls on the subject and I believe that computer forecast that these people would fail and that this could not extend beyond the 3rd year, all once again making it on time and a correct forecast for Socrates. The COVID Crash was March 2020 and they began to organize it by August 2019. I warned Schwab – beware the Ides of March.
Meanwhile, Trudeau was on the run, and in the USA, Biden orders U.S. soldiers who refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine will be immediately discharged, the U.S. Army said on Wednesday, saying the move was critical to maintaining combat readiness. It is really hard to say who is the worst head of state – Trudeau or Biden?

The border crossing between Coutts, Alberta (CA) and Sweet Grass, Montana (USA) continues to be closed despite truckers opening a lane in either direction as a show of good faith. The dynamics in this regional part of the larger Freedom Convoy protests are very interesting. The Alberta protests are in support of the larger trucker protest taking place in Ottawa.
Last night, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney (the Robert the Bruce character in the province), disparaged the truckers in the protest group and claimed, without evidence, that violence was taking place in the confrontation between RCMP and the Truckers. It was all lies.
Just like Justin Trudeau makes stuff up for media stenographers to draw an alternate framework of reality, so too did Jason Kenney have the same motive. The painfully political Kenney, a visible elitist and detached politician, was playing his controlled opposition role and attacking the Freedom Truckers.
Just to give appropriate understanding for how detached these conservatives in Canada are from the people they claim to represent, Jason Kenney’s political worm traits were on full display during his prepared remarks on Tuesday. However, 24 hours later, as soon as his brother in controlled opposition Erin O’Toole was removed from political power, suddenly Premier Kenney has a change of heart and proclaims his allegiance to the Truckers, saying, “I’m on your side.” The slime oozes from this guy.
Despite all that, the truckers remained focused -reinforced their ranks- and engaged in conversation with the rural Ministers of Alberta’s Legislative Assembly (MLA’s). The MLA’s are apparently slightly less slimy creatures akin to political clan leaders in the province.
The rural MLA’s said they would hold a meeting and drop the COVID mandates, thereby supporting the demands of the truckers. In exchange, and as an act of good faith, the truckers would open a lane in each direction of the highway at the Coutts border crossing area. The RCMP was happy to see negotiations be fruitful and backed away from any police enforcement action.
However, the The United Conservative Party, the right wing of the Trudeau led uniparty, then denied there was any agreement:
“Reports have surfaced that the United Conservative rural caucus has negotiated an agreement to temporarily end the Coutts blockade pending the outcome of a rural caucus meeting to discuss the immediate lifting of the Restrictions Exemption Program (REP),” UCP caucus chair Nathan Neudorf said in a statement Wednesday afternoon.
“No such agreement has been authorized and the meeting is not to discuss lifting the REP. As the Premier [Kenney] has stated, Alberta will begin lifting restrictions very soon, likely within days, starting with the REP.” (link)
Conservative politics in Canada is even more slimy than GOP politics in the U.S.
The Conservative Party does not want to see the truckers achieve through grassroots activism what their highbrow political pontifications could not deliver. Therefore, the official position of the Conservative Party of Canada is to downplay the influence of the truckers until the installed correct thinking politicians are in position to take credit.
The problem for Premier Jason Kenney, and the larger Conservative Political Party in Canada not just in Alberta, is the blue collar truckers and grassroots ordinary Canadians have proven they can win without politicians. This is a similar scenario to the Tea Party in the U.S. circa 2010.
Just as the GOP in the U.S. is full of useless pontificating cocktail party cronies who powder themselves in the country clubs of Wall Street finance, so too does the Conservative Party of Canada follow the same political business model.
Kenney and the Conservative Party are trying to figure out how to acquiesce to the Freedom Trucker movement and remove COVID restrictions without letting it appear like the Freedom Truckers won. The dynamic is transparent and sickening, and it shows the reason why there has been no opposition to Justin Trudeau throughout his tenure.
The Canadian Conservative Party is the right wing of the UniParty bird, and the extreme liberals are the left wing. Both parties support the vulture of big government.
As a result, the Freedom Trucker movement is a threat to politicians in the Canadian Conservative Party just like the Tea Party and MAGA movement were/are a threat to the Republican Party in the U.S.
The working class in Canada holds all the power, but both wings of the UniParty do not want that noticed. Unfortunately for them, the Freedom Trucker movement has exposed the power of the people in Canada, and the politicians -in both parties- don’t know how to act.
The border will open as a sign of good faith that Alberta's rural MLAs will lift the mandates. pic.twitter.com/lD18nke4nD
Truckers rearranged the blockade earlier to open one lane north and one south as a showing of good faith, and easier access for locals. Border remains closed for various reasons.
