Sacre’ Bleu! – The French Peasants Have Revolted as Macron Dissolves Parliament and Calls for Immediate Snap Election


Posted originally on the CTH on June 9, 2024 | Sundance 

French President Emmanuel Macron was pulverized in the national election today.  According to exit polling, Marine LePen’s National Rally party will win around 32% of the vote, while Macron’s Renaissance party will win around 15%.

A massive rebuke of the leftist government in France.

PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron dissolved parliament and called a fresh election on Sunday, following his party’s crushing defeat at the hands of far-right candidates in the European Union election.

The first round of the French Parliamentary election will take place on June 30. The second will be on July 7.

“France needs a clear majority in serenity and harmony. To be French, at heart, is about choosing to write history, not being driven by it,” Macron said.

The far-right National Rally is projected to win the European election in France with 31.5 percent of the vote — more than twice the 15.2 percent Macron’s liberal Renaissance party is projected to win.

The National Rally’s share of the vote eclipsed the total for the second and third largest parties combined — with the center-left social democrats earning around 14 percent, according to early exit polls.

The decision to dissolve the National Assembly was met with disbelief by Macron’s supporters, with several people screaming “Oh no” as he spoke to a crowd in a televised address from his party headquarters in Paris. (read more)

Overall, in the EU elections this weekend the populist movement expanded seats and the leftist/green party’s lost seats.

(MSM) – […] Populist, far-right parties won record support in this year’s European Parliament elections, early exit polls and estimates indicated on Sunday.

The far-right Identity and Democracy group made major gains, while the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists saw a slight uptick in votes, according to the first official projection released by the EU at 8:30 p.m. local time.

The center-right European People’s Party is once again projected to win the most parliamentary seats, with a marginally bigger lead than before. If it’s able to repeat alliances with other centrist groups then it would retain a majority in the Parliament despite a surge from the far right.

The liberal Renew Europe and the Greens/European Free Alliance, meanwhile, are both seen losing a significant number of seats.

Here is the early 2024 vote breakdown versus 2019:

European People’s Party (EPP) — 181 seats, up from 176
Progressive Alliance of Socialists & Democrats (S&D) — 135 seats, down from 139
Renew Europe (RE) — 82 seats, down from 102
European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) — 71 seats, up from 69
Identity and Democracy (ID) — 62 seats, up from 49
Greens/European Free Alliance — 53 seats, down from 71
The Left — 34 seats, down from 37
Non-attached members (NI) — 51 seats, down from 61

The last time there was a populist revolt in the EU system, the summer of BREXIT, it preceded the successful election of President Donald Trump.

Litmus Tests

“Dear Sundance, could you please write an article that explains the policies that differentiate a GOPe RINO Establishment SIG/Bushie from an America First MAGA Patriot? It would be most beneficial to have a “litmus test” that can be easily used to compare candidates.”

At first blush this might sound like a familiar question that many would disregard.  However, let me emphasize a key point often overlooked.  The more severely you stop pretending, the more you realize the value of “litmus test” questioning.  When you ask a certain type of question in front of an audience, things opinions can change very quickly.

Additionally, when you know the questions that hit the pretending triggers the hardest, then you know how to create the most uncomfortable situations for professional politicians and people in general who rely on their ability to obfuscate language.  Lastly, when you know the material well enough to speak of the non-pretending dynamic in a way that doesn’t allow a pretentious lying response, it scares the heck out of the Alinsky/Lawfare tribe.

Brutally honest questioning is very valuable.  That said, let me provide a few situational questions that will immediately reveal who you are talking to.

Litmus Question #1:  Please, can you tell me your opinion of Robert Mueller?

If the (Republican) respondent replies with any positive about the character, action, purpose and intent of Robert Mueller in the role of special counsel, you can immediately qualify the respondent as a participant in the fraud.  There is only one honest response about anything Mueller.  Everyone in DC knows Mueller was the coverup operation.  No one, not one single person, in Washington DC does not know Mueller’s intent.

Litmus Question #2:  Was the 2020 Election manipulated?

If the (Republican) respondent replies with a long-winded answer, implying that some form of electoral manipulation might have been possible, you can immediately qualify the person as a participant maintaining fraud.  Pretending out of fear or favor is still pretending.

That’s it.  Look them straight in the eye, stand your ground, tell them you can see exactly who they are – then stop talking.  The discomfort in the room will always lay heaviest upon the shoulders of the deceivers.  You will likely be able to hear a pin drop.  The Truth Has No Agenda.

Also, one larger part (with multiple aspects) of the political dynamic is very important to keep at the forefront of your mind.  In all the important ways that matter, you know more about the subject matter of corruption within politics than the politicians you might question about it.

You know more than any Republican member of Congress and/or their staff, research team or investigative group.  You know more about all of it in the large picture and the granular details than they do.  It does not matter what their position within the DC system or what committee they sit upon, you know more.

You, the person reading this, knows more about intelligence system corruption than any member of the intelligence community Gang of Eight that sits in charge of oversight.  YOU KNOW MORE, than any person in any DC silo, and that is by design.

What people do not understand about DC is that only the entities within the DC system are permitted to engage in accountability.  Meaning, in the world of Republicans, Congress (or any other institution) cannot accept information from outside their silo operations.

Put simply, if a Republican congressional staffer does not originate the raw material evidence that highlights a corrupt activity, then the evidence does not exist.  Only the people within the silo system are permitted to discover information that targets any other silo participant.  This action/sequence is by design.

The Republican participants in DC will tell you that process is in place to ensure that no goofball material or evidence comes into the system.  However, in reality the purpose of this rule is to block any negative information from permeating the silo system.   The silo construct protects the silo inhabitants, and no detrimental information or crowdsourcing of evidence is permitted by allowed to be used by Republicans.

The Democrats do not hold themselves to this standard, and again this is part of the design.

The Democrat Party system exists to assemble power.  The Republican wing of the system exists to assemble money.  Democrats want power. Republicans want money.  The policy of Democrats drives their donor activity.  The donor activity of Republicans drives their policy.

When Senator Chuck Schumer wants Republican votes to secure policy wins, he buys those votes from Mitch McConnell.  When Senator Mitch McConnell wants Democrat votes to secure policy on behalf of the corporations who fund his team, McConnell sells policy (amendments) to Chuck Schumer.

Re-read that prior paragraph to understand how Schumer in majority gains policy victories, and Schumer in minority gains policy victories.

Democrats want power (policy), Republicans want money.  This is the nature of two wings of the UniParty and the core reason why people are starting to see how legislative policy shifts left regardless of which party is in power.

In order to maintain the process of gaining affluence, the Republicans within the silo system have rules that block information from reaching them. This is best described as the technical process that creates a Republican system of intentional willful blindness.

The Republicans do not want to be holding specific evidence of corruption because they cannot sell that; ergo, it has no value.  This is why Republicans do not factually construct any oversight mechanisms.  (See: Fast and Furious, IRS targeting, Benghazi, Spygate, Govt weaponization, etc).

Instead, the leadership of the Republicans writes out a list of what topics are valid for conversation and what topics are not.  Republican members then stick to the guidelines of the topics and nothing more.

In this era of great pretending, make them uncomfortable by not participating.

Ozempic A Miracle Drug Too Good To Be True?

Ozempic A Miracle Drug Too Good To Be True?

Ozempic_at_DuckDuckGo

It has been two years since the public failure of the COVID-19 vaccine; one might think Americans would be skeptical of big pharma products & the integrity of the FDA.

Novo Nordisk

Novo Nordisk, the Danish pharmaceutical company, overtook LVMH to become Europe’s most valuable company. Maker Novo Nordisk’s drug Semaglutide, sold under Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro, is a blockbuster type 2 diabetic and weight loss drug, resulting in a 1.6 billion in sales in the first quarter of 2024.

Semaglutide

According to USA Today, Dr. Judy Korner, an endocrinologist, describes Semaglutide drugs in a very simple and elementary way. “GLP-1 goes to the pancreas and helps the pancreas make insulin – but only when the body needs insulin. So, when glucose levels rise, the body needs more insulin, and GLP-1 or Ozempic (its mimicker) helps the pancreas release insulin,” Korner explains. For weight loss, signals are sent to the appetite center in your brain to reduce hunger and increase fullness,” stated Dr. Deborah Horn, “This helps you feel full with smaller meals and decreases the need for snacks.”

Besides curbing the high blood sugar level for diabetics, millions of Americans have been taking this drug to shed excess pounds. If you go off Semaglutide drug, “Almost immediately, your weight will start creeping back up,” said Insider’s Gabby Lansverk. Novo Nordisk, the manufacturer of Ozempic and Wegovy, says that much like cholesterol-controlling statin drugs, this new class of medications is likely a lifelong commitment. A study of hundreds of Ozempic takers released in 2022 found that after one year without the drug, patients regained two-thirds of the weight they had lost, cited Business Insider.

glucose level

“There is a “30% chance of having GI (gastrointestinal) side effect,” according to Dr. Prateek Sharma, a professor of medicine at the University of Kansas School of Medicine. Novo Nordisk charges approximately $1,000.00 for a weekly injection. Harvard research found that the five-year cost of the Ozempic was $53,268 versus $19,685 for the minimally invasive endoscopic bariatric procedure is more cost-effective and helps shed more pounds. Either way, both have controversial side effects.

“In some people, they may also prompt bouts of vomiting that can require medical attention and slow the stomach so much that they can lead to a condition called gastroparesis. While gastroparesis may or may not improve after the medication is stopped, some patients have claimed that their condition didn’t improve months after quitting the drug”, CNN reported.

US News, published an article, Stomach Paralysis Risk May Rise in People Taking Ozempic and Similar Drugs. US News describes a study at University Hospitals in Cleveland. They combed through millions of patient records from 80 health care organizations. Focus was on adults who were obese and had no history of diabetes and had not been diagnosed with gastroparesis or pancreatitis at least six months before starting a GLP-1 medication in the 286,000 patients in this study.

Stomach Fat R

Of those prescribed the GLP-1 medication for weight reduction, 10 out of 10,000 were diagnosed with gastroparesis at least six months later. Patients taking the drugs were also more likely to have nausea, vomiting, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). They were also more likely to have their gallbladders removed and experience drug-induced pancreatitis.

Sharma noted that his study included people who had diabetes in both the group taking the GLP-1 medications and in the comparison group, and they still found a higher incidence of stomach paralysis in those taking the medications, suggesting that diabetes alone wasn’t the culprit.

The FDA-approved Semaglutide products have a black box warning indicating that the Semaglutide drug carries a significant risk of serious or even life-threatening adverse effects, such as the risk of all thyroid C-cell tumors or thyroid cancers within 12-36 months of use.  Additional published side effects are “gastric paralysis (paralyzed stomach muscle), leading to cyclical vomiting for years even after stopping the drug, acute and long-term kidney failure & short-term and long-term liver failure,” per Dr. Ardis.

Thyroid Cancer

The healthcare industries continue to disappoint consumers. Hopefully, soon, consumers will wake up and realize they have been played. Big Pharma is the biggest spender on TV ads, foundational obesity (specifically Nova Nordisk) research, civil rights groups, and medical groups such as AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics).

Per Politico, “Novo Nordisk, which makes the blockbuster weight loss drugs Ozempic and Wegovy, hired law and lobbying firm Arnold & Porter and others to try to convince policymakers to allow Medicare to cover anti-obesity medications.” Novo Nordisk spent a total of $4.6 million on lobbying the federal government last year, and $1.3 million in the first three months of 2023. The company and its six outside lobbying firms listed lobbying on obesity medicine coverage this year in disclosure forms. This is standard practice for Big Pharma, reaching deep into the pockets of Medicare & Medicaid. They know the stream of funds will be available once their drugs pass the green light.

While both drugs contain the active ingredient semaglutide, Ozempic is only approved as a diabetes treatment, though it’s prescribed off-label as an anti-obesity drug. Wegovy is FDA-approved for weight loss. Medicare Part D and most commercial insurers only cover Ozempic for the treatment of diabetes. Without coverage, the drugs can cost patients around $16,000 per year.

One study cited by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that coverage of weight loss drugs like Wegovy could lead to nearly $27 billion in additional Medicare Part D spending, should the 41 percent of Americans over 60 years old considered obese decide to take the drug.

Americans spent over $722 billion on prescription drugs in 2023, a nearly 14% increase from 2022, which outpaced inflation. Presidential campaigns echo the words to stand up to the pharmaceutical industry and lower prescription drug prices, but they are empty promises.

According to Bernie Sanders on Fox News (June 23, 2023), “The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most powerful political forces in America. In a Congress of 100 senators and 435 members of the House, the pharmaceutical industry has more than 1,800 well-paid lobbyists on Capitol Hill. These include former leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties.  With very few exceptions, the drug companies are totally unregulated. They can set their prices to any level for any reason they want. And they do!”

Although lawsuits against Ozempic have been filed, there has been much suffrage for innocent people in our country, and the FDA has turned a blind eye to drug manufacturers’ safety issues. The US FDA led the greatest catastrophe in this country’s history during the COVID lockdown. They bankrupted small businesses and some chains worldwide for nothing more than the Flu. They are starting it all over again with Bird Flu.

They were championing, promoting, and lying about the validity of the mRNA vaccine, just as they have done with so many other harmful drugs and vaccines in America. When will big pharma be held accountable?

Senator Kennedy Asks Some Uncomfortable Questions to FBI Director Chris Wray


Posted originally on the CTH on June 8, 2024 | Sundance

From the outset, let me say in advance that I do not believe the current Director of the FBI has any clue what happens inside the modern FBI silo.  It’s not that Chris Wray is not contributing to the corruption, his willful blindness guarantees that he is; the bigger issue is more about what the purpose and intent of the organization is….  THAT IS WHERE you will find my attention piqued.

I do not believe the popular assumption that the FBI as an institution is part of a domestic law enforcement operation. Those days are over. I genuinely believe, like most modern criminal enterprises, specifically including drug cartel operations (not coincidentally), what we see about the FBI is the false front.  {GO DEEP} I suspect behind the facade and deep inside the FBI silo operation, is something else entirely.

The action of the FBI in several “sex case” instances, leads me to believe there is a strong operational element within their silo that directly links to Jeffrey Epstein.  Many of you may be aware that prior to the Epstein case getting massive publicity, he was in a long-time collaborative relationship with the FBI.   The FBI has admitted in court documents that Epstein was a source, and the relationship appears to have gone much deeper than just source level.  Techno Fog has deep dives on this aspect specifically {SEE HERE}.

Based on the conduct of the FBI, as an institution, I am increasingly convinced the DOJ/FBI (likely CIA, DoD and DoS) used Jeffrey Epstein as part of their intelligence gathering operation.  In essence, Epstein carried out the indecent activity that ensnared FBI targets; this is the collaboration.

Whether the IC target was determined prior to the operation, then instructions given to Epstein; or whether Epstein’s pre-existing files, recordings, and potential blackmail exploits were used as part of the IC target mission later on, after a target appeared on the IC radar, is unknown.  But using Epstein as part of what they would call National Security Operations would contextualize the term “collaboration,” and simultaneously explain every weird element which has never seemed possible to reconcile.

Against that context, watch this prompted line of questions.  WATCH:

.

Again, FBI Director Chris Wray doesn’t need to be a participating member of the FBI operational process in order to be FBI Director.  One of the more important aspects of understanding how the DC silos work, is to comprehend that they operate regardless of who is at the top of the silo.

Again, how do 40 career FBI agents work on the Trump-Russia collusion investigation, including the Weissmann/Mueller 2-year coverup operation, without a single FBI agent, member or employee saying the investigation is nonsense. If our historic reference point for the FBI operation is accurate, how was that even possible?  The short answer, that reconciles all of it, is to accept it was not possible.  Our prior reference point was fundamentally wrong.  {GO DEEP}

Jeffrey Epstein was not an FBI “informant.”  Jeffrey Epstein was an FBI “asset.”

Epstein carried out Intelligence Community operations.

.

The U.S. Dept of Justice and FBI are political institutions that have abandoned their originating mission in order to become the domestic equivalent of the Soviet-era FSB. Their joint targeting mechanisms have been redesigned to support the interests of Intelligence Community operations.  The IC radar sweeps off-shore and on-shore with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the DNI silo, maintaining the pivot point.

It was in June 2022, when Senator Chuck Grassley sent a letter [pdf HERE] to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray, notifying them of whistleblower allegations from within the FBI that senior leadership in both Main Justice and FBI are involved in a coordinated effort to cover up criminal activity related to Hunter Biden.

The whistleblower allegations, in combination with the documented history of DOJ and FBI misconduct, culminate in Senator Grassley stating:

“If these allegations are true and accurate, the Justice Department and FBI are – and have been – institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the United States Congress and the American people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. Attorney General Garland and Director Wray, simply put, based on the allegations that I’ve received from numerous whistleblowers, you have systemic and existential problems within your agencies.” (LINK)

Grassley was clarifying what has been visible for years, if we just stop pretending.

COMMENT: Dear Mr Armstrong,
Thanks for your interesting blog and for all you
Are doing for all humanity…

Concerning possibility to come to USA, I would
Like to emphasize that while from day one of
Biden’s presidency, USA south borders are
Opened to anyone passing through, with no
need to have documents or declare real data,
Italians (and I guess european too) that want to
come to USA in order to work and live there, still have
a lot of  limitations and Regulations to adhere (even
if “called” from a US Firm… but I am sure you know it! which
finally make it Almost impossible to come even if specialized
And with clean record.
All the best!
Have a nice week-end!

REPLY: I have spent more than $50,000 on lawyers trying to get my overseas staff into the USA. It very frustrating. I intend to file a lawsuit against Homeland Security for DISCRIMINATION and violating civil rights. What you say is correct. They refuse to even issue a visa in Russia, I had a German staff member who boarded a plane and then was pulled off. A British staff member refused to give a visa and refused to explain why, using the standard nonsense that perhaps they would not leave. I told my staff to put on a T-shirt, I voted for Biden and just walked across the Mexican border.

I can tell you I have seen instructions to Homeland Security that if anyone from Ukraine wanted to come to the USA, they MUST have a COVID-19 vaccine. However, if a Ukrainian walked across the Mexican border, no vaccine is required.

This policy is exactly what I encountered trying to negotiate for Hong Kong with the Australian government. It was ONLY about who they would vote for. Australia blocked them because they would vote CONSERVATIVE when the LABOUR government was in power.

What Kind of American Are You

I am so sick and tired of this nonsense that people from Asia and Europe cannot come to the USA simply because they would vote Republican. The USA will break up. This is unsustainable. That film scene from the Movie Civil War was really on point – What kind of American are you?

We may have to start doing conferences in Dubai and Mexico. So much for the land of the free.
