We can see that some of these protests have gone too far. Here they are just harassing people having dinner. How is this political? It has become obnoxious.

Merkel Crushes the Right to Protest & US to Withdraw All Troops from Germany
Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Oct 16, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
In France, Macron announced a 9 PM curfew for Paris and an 8 PM curfew in other cities. In Germany, Merkel is digging in her feet because she knows she will not run again. In my mind, this raises serious questions that she has been bribed. There is way too much evidence that people in her own government have told her this is not even a pandemic. Nevertheless, she is turning Germany into where she grew up — East Germany, behind the wall.
Merkel has taken Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, and has begun to squash protests by imposing limits on people gathering at events as well as mandatory mask-wearing at crowded places. To crush all dissent and protests, Merkel has lowered the criteria from 50 positive tests per 100,00 people to 35 per 100,000 in seven days. This is her new yardstick to be used to crush political freedoms.
The number of people allowed to gather will be limited to 25 in public and 15 in private spaces. “We have decided on this prophylactic number of 35 because we have seen some examples of how fast the increase happens from 35 to 50.” Once a threshold of 50 new infections per 100,000 is exceeded, even tougher restrictions will apply. These include limiting private gatherings to 10 people or two households, and the closure of restaurants after 11:00 pm.
Meanwhile, Trump has approved the withdrawal of troops stationed in Germany. The crazy restrictions in Germany have made the lives of Americans stationed there a living hell.
They are Banning Halloween, Thanksgiving, & Christmas
Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Oct 16, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
Perhaps people will wake up soon and see that while they have turned COVID-19 into an issue to try to defeat Trump, that is only the tip of the iceberg. Restrictions will continue well into 2021 and they are planning to keep this up to save the planet. They have already called off Halloween. Fauci himself is out there saying his own kids will not return home for Thanksgiving. They are now in the USA talking about the Blue States outright banning travel and imposing 2-week quarantines for Thanksgiving. Forget Christmas too. You can’t take the kids to sit on Santa’s lap anymore. What’s next? Will you need a permit to even have a child?
I know a woman in Philadelphia was giving birth. They tested her and her husband for COVID. He was OK, but she tested positive with no symptoms. When she gave birth, the hospital took her child and would not allow her to touch him. She never had symptoms and only after nearly two weeks with a second test that was negative, did they agree to return her child.
Honestly, enough is enough. COVID is no more dangerous than the flu. We do not shut down churches, ban Christmas, all for the flu. This is about pushing the agenda of climate change. Our models are warning that we can see the protests turn into revolutions around the world by the spring.
Resistance Is Not Always Futile – Manchester & Liverpool Stand up To Boris Johnson
Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Oct 15, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
The Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has come out and refused to follow the demands of Boris Johnson who is increasingly acting, not like a politician, but someone who has been bribed to sabotage BREXIT and to crush the British economy for Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset. Johnson has not only abandoned the very core principles of the Conservative Party but in more than 40 years of dealing with governments around the world the one common element has always been you cannot get them to act proactively to PREVENT something from happening.
Here, Mayor Andy Burnham has said: “We have unanimously opposed the government’s plans for Tier 3.” It takes courage to defend the people against this political corruption that will eventually surface. He continues: “They are asking us to gamble our residents’ jobs, homes and businesses… on a strategy their own experts tell them might not work.” A truer statement has never been made. This is the difference between politicians who have not been bribed like Burnham and someone like Johnson who has sold out his country for clearly what will be a pocket full of money directly or more likely indirectly.
Facebook Shuts Down Political Candidates in New Zealand Running for Election
Armstrong Economics Blog/Conspiracy Re-Posted Oct 15, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
COMMENT: Less than 48 hours before election day in New Zealand, Facebook has closed the account of Advance NZ/PP party.
Front man Billy TK has called out the incumbent labour party’s anti-sovereign, globalist agenda and is against lockdowns and the covid narrative. He has also called out the appalling track record of the Ardern “be kind” government on poverty, and has risen to the occasion to support the poorest in this election. One Advance NZ manifesto item is an enquiry into 5G.
A brief search brings up nothing nice about Billy TK or the party, and now, FB take down their page. A recent ASA ruling against campaign material looks to me to be possibly political, due to making questioning of the pandemic response a matter of ‘social responsibility’. Rumours were also circulating at one point that their electoral admin was not in order.
Putting it all together this all seems a little fishy to me.

REPLY: This certainly warrants investigation. Even if the guy is a communist, they will still be on the ballot and have an ABSOLUTE RIGHT to be there. Zuckerberg is now over the top and is acting against Democracy. In the United States, there is also the Communist Party. They are on ballots. They have also an absolute right to be there. You can click and go to their site. I may disagree with their point of view but I cannot deny them the right to be heard.
Even Due Process of Law is based on the Biblical account of Cain and Able. Cain murdered his brother Abel and God still gave him the right to be heard. And the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother? And he said, “I do not know: am I my brother’s keeper?” And the Lord said, “What have you done? Listen! your brother’s blood cries out to me from the soil. And so, cursed shall you be by the soil that gaped with its mouth to take your brother’s blood from your hand.”
This is the right to be heard which Zuckerberg and the rest of these leftist social media moguls who always seem to oppress others fail to understand. What they are doing is an affront to all humanity and they are showing they do not believe in Democracy.
These people take money from the CIA and have openly admitted such. CIA publishes a helpful list of press releases on all the social media ventures it sponsors, via its technology investment arm In-Q-Tel. Clearly, there is a serious question as to what is going on with these people. Whatever they said about the Russians, they have done far worse and pretending they have immunity. Sure, they will claim this is a “conspiracy theory” but this was even reported by CBS – at least until they take it down. Zuckerberg has no immunity in New Zealand. He should be taken to court ASAP for interfering in free elections. He is interfering in the elections the same they have accused Putin of going in 2016.Categories:Conspiracy, Corruption
The COVID Waltz – the New Norm
Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Oct 15, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
This is the “New Norm” for the high school prom. I suppose this will bring back memories. I suppose people will no longer be allowed to have children unless it is artificially inseminated. I am so glad I am not 18 again. What a horror life has become.
Exclusive: China Had COVID-Like Patients Months Before Official Timeline

Internal CCP documents show patients in Wuhan had symptoms as early as September 2019, but authorities didn’t disclose to the world
R-Posted from THE EPOCH TIMES By EVA FU October 13, 2020 Updated: October 13, 2020Print
A series of leaked documents shows that patients in China with symptoms similar to COVID-19 were hospitalized months before the regime’s official timeline, throwing into question when exactly the CCP virus began spreading in Wuhan, China’s epidemic ground zero.
At least one patient with COVID-19-like symptoms was treated in September 2019, according to hospital data obtained by The Epoch Times from a trusted source who has access to government documents. Dozens more were hospitalized over the following month.
Wuhan hospitals also reported several deaths in October 2019 due to severe pneumonia, lung infections, and other symptoms similar to COVID-19 patients.
The city’s health commission only publicly announced an outbreak of a novel form of pneumonia on Dec. 31, 2019—after social media posts by whistleblower doctors had gone viral.
In a letter dated Feb. 19 obtained by The Epoch Times, a national investigation team set up by the central government stated that it wished to trace early cases of the disease. It asked local authorities for data from all Wuhan medical institutions over the period between Oct. 1 to Dec. 10, 2019, including information on patients who visited fever clinics in the vicinity of the Huanan Seafood Market, a wet market that the officials initially identified as the outbreak origin; details of the earliest 10 suspected cases at each medical agency rated tier two or above (three is the highest); and pneumonia deaths with COVID-19-like symptoms.
The letter stated that nine hospitals, which received the most COVID-19 patients in the city, were key to the investigation.DOCUMENTPAGESTEXTZoom
«Page 1 of 6»
The Epoch Times had access to part of the records in response to the inquiry, those from 11 hospitals.
Despite the collected data, the Wuhan outbreak control task force told media on Feb. 26 that the earliest documented patient was a person surnamed Chen who fell ill on Dec. 8, 2019.
It’s unclear whether authorities conducted any inquiries into early cases prior to February.
To some critics, the investigation appeared rather narrow and came too late. “For such a massive respiratory disease to break out in the area, how come they didn’t track down all other hospitals?” Sean Lin, former lab director of the viral disease branch at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, told The Epoch Times.
“This should have been done a long time ago,” he said, calling the delayed inquiry “ridiculous.”
Suspected Virus Patients
The obtained records showed nine deaths due to COVID-19-like conditions at three hospitals.
Five were severe pneumonia patients who died between November and December 2019 at the Wuhan No. 6 Hospital, one of the hospitals named in the inquiry letter. The Wuhan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a tertiary hospital, had three deaths in October. Wuhan No. 8 Hospital recorded one death.
Patients died within a period of several days to about four weeks after their first symptoms appeared.
Xu Zhenqian, for example, was hospitalized at Wuhan No. 6 hospital. The 82-year-old started exhibiting symptoms on Oct. 1, 2019, including coughing fits without an apparent cause and coughed up white phlegm, a sign of respiratory infection, according to the hospital’s clinical description. The patient was transferred from another facility shortly before his death on Nov. 3.
Three other patients at the same hospital also had difficulty breathing before they died. Their CT scans showed blurred markings in their lungs—patterns that match the lesions on some COVID-19 patients.
The files also identified at least 40 other suspected COVID-19 patients across eight hospitals, the earliest one being 67-year-old Xiao Niangui, who began exhibiting symptoms on Sept. 25, 2019, and was hospitalized at the Wuhan Puren Jiang’an Hospital.
Wuhan has 205 health facilities at the community and township level and 66 designated hospitals for treating COVID-19 patients, city officials said in March.
China’s lack of transparency has been heavily criticized by government officials. It consistently refused to allow in experts from the United States and the World Health Organization (WHO) to study the outbreak in the country. On Feb. 12, an official from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the agency was still unable to access “direct data” about the outbreak and “continue to be hopeful that we’ll be invited to do that.”
In a media interview released on May 1, a WHO representative in China also said China has excluded the organization’s experts from the country’s virus probe.

Rona Madness – Michigan’s Comrade Whitmer Declares COVID-19 Will Attack if Standing, But Not if Seated….
Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 13, 2020 by sundance
In the latest example of corona madness; and in the face of state supreme court rulings declaring her unilateral dictates unconstitutional; Comrade Gretchen Whitmer of the Michigan Directorate declares an even more bizarre state rule:
…”bars are now allowed to operate but they may only serve alcohol to people who are sitting down and 6 feet apart.” (link)
Apparently the moonbat-science is settled. If standing with beer, the COVID-19 virus will swoop down and attack; however, if you take a seat with beer your are protected. Thus continues the abject nuttery from the Michigan Directorate of COVID Compliance.

Nabarro of the WHO Breaks Ranks with Tedos the Terrible
Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 11, 2020 by Martin Armstrong
Dr. David Nabarro, Britain’s envoy to the World Health Organisation (W.H.O.) has contradicted the WHO and his own Boris Johnson. Nabarro has condemned mass coronavirus lockdowns calling them the “ghastly global catastrophe” which has caused the unprecedented crash of the world economy. Nabarro has correctly appealed to world leaders this past weekend telling them to stop “using lockdowns as your primary control method” of the coronavirus.
Nabarro has correctly pointed out that the only thing lockdowns achieved was to increase poverty rather than potentially saving lives. This is in direct contrast to W.H.O. chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, nicknamed Tedros the Terrible, who as far back as April gave his full support to lockdowns and even warned against lifting them too soon as reported back on April 10, 2020, in most mainstream media. In May, the WHO came out and justified the lockdowns saying the virus has jumped because of ending lockdowns too soon.
WHY? The lower-paying jobs require physical presences from being a waitress to working on oil rigs or planting crops. The only people who could work from home were the upper-class white-collar jobs. Even the people who clean office buildings have lost their jobs. These are the people who lack savings and these lockdowns have put at risk a massive civil uprising from February 2021 onward.
The key politicians have most likely been bribed because they are so nasty they cannot have any rational expectation to run for reelection. They MUST have been offered golden parachutes to further this agenda of the Great Reset. The problem they did not encounter is the dramatic rise in poverty they have unleashed that Guarantee Basic Income, their attempt to bribe the lower-income to surrender their jobs and future, will not suffice. These people will NEVER climb the economic ladder by keeping people down with minimal subsistence.
President Trump Says He Will Donate His Plasma For COVID-19 Treatment…
