Blue Cities Contemplate Mask Bans


Posted originally on Dec 14, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

Blue cities across the US are contemplating banning masks. A few years ago these cities would not allow people to enter public establishments without a mask. But now, after Soros-backed DAs blindfolded themselves to the drastic uptick in crime, cities such as Philadelphia, Atlanta, and New York are banning face masks to prevent criminals from evading police.

Balaclavas or ski masks have become a popular fashion accessory among urban youth. Far-left fashion publication Vogue even published an article in February 2023 entitled, “All the Cool Kids Are Wearing Balaclavas.” If someone walked into the bank with a ski mask on, it would have been considered a threat. Now, civil rights groups claim that these masks represent freedom of expression.

Executive Director of Violence Interrupters Tio Hardiman believes the normalization of facial masks has emboldened criminals. “If a person is not going skiing, they should not have on a full face ski mask,” Hardiman said. “Full face ski masks appear to give criminals an edge… It’s making the criminals emboldened. Almost like they’re invincible.”

Philadelphia is proposing a law that would impose a $250 fine on anyone wearing a face mask in public. “The Philadelphia Police Department can’t tell who’s a criminal and not a criminal, which makes it difficult for crimes to be solved in Philadelphia,” council member Anthony Phillips told CNN. Philadelphia Police Department Deputy Commissioner Francis Healy believes that the pandemic changed the public’s perceived risk. “There was a time not so long ago when any average police officer would see a person donning a mask before entering a convenience store or a bank and they would believe a robbery was about to occur,” Healy said. “However, the pandemic changed that mindset where people were actually more fearful of people without masks than with masks.”

Crime has risen drastically in every blue city since the pandemic. Those who claim banning masks is an infringement on human rights or even racist do not realize that facial coverings were regulated in the 1800s due to the Ku Klux Klan using white hoods to commit atrocious crimes undetected.

Has Gates Unleashed a Virus to Now Kill our Dogs like He Wants to do with Cattle?

Evil Bill Gates

All of a sudden, there is now a MYSTERIOUS virus that is killing dogs for the first time EVER! Kennel Cough in dogs is a respiratory disease. The condition is considered to be highly contagious in dogs and produces a very dry cough. Generally, the condition makes it sound like your dog has something stuck in their throat. While Kennel Cough can be life-threatening in rare cases, in some cases, there is an annual vaccination available.

WSJ 2009 Shrink Population
Chip

Veterinarians are sounding the alarm bell, reporting an increase in a highly contagious, increasingly fatal, mysterious dog illness. Nobody knows where this has come from, and many suspect it was another lab creation to eliminate our pets, which Bill Gates seems to have a problem with along with COWS. He is following in his father’s footsteps and desperately trying to reduce the population while pushing vaccines to prevent deaths/or cause deaths. He wants to kill all the COWS, so the next logical step is our pets. What’s after that? He is probably planning to have governments license people to have children with his Gates’ FUNDED microchips he wants to implant in women that can be remotely turned on and off the ability to even have children.

2023 Digtal ID

Gates is behind the WHO and the United States in moving toward a one-world government with dictatorial power that eliminates any right of the people to vote on anything. He is already pushing for absolutely everyone on the planet to have a digital ID. Obviously, none of these globalists believe in anything but their own power and seek to expand that to control our daily lives no different than Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao Zedong.

Pets cause Climate Change

Still, the disease killing our dogs has never before appeared. This mysterious disease is sweeping the United States and has experts baffled. Researchers continue to search for answers using samples from infected dogs while vets are guiding pet owners in the hopes of further preventing the spread of the virus. Believe it or not, to justify flying around in their private jets, they are actually telling us, “Having pets can be just as polluting as traveling by private jet.”

Kerry Climate Czar

Gee! I have two dogs, so I guess that’s the equivalent of a private jet and a helicopter. Well, they did not cost me millions. So, I suggest John Kerry get a dog and give up his private sets.

In Gates’ 2021 book, “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster,” Gates wrote that effectively combating climate change will take people being willing to commit to his new ideas, like switching to electric cars, where demand has collapsed, and eating synthetic meats or, like his buddy, Klaus Schwab, eat zee bugs. I am still waiting for a White House dinner with fake meat and bugs as the main course. I would love to see our Climate Czar, John Kerry, gulp down a plate of fresh live bugs.

Pets Dogs Kennel

The timing of the mysterious new disease and the fact that nobody can figure out even where it came from, like a Wuhan Lab, since this is a non-human virus, could be some private lab funded by sinister people. This is like COVID-19, which is also a respiratory illness. The Kennel Cough is known as canine infectious respiratory disease (CIRD). The entire COVID-19 was GAIN OF FUNCTION research, taking bat viruses and mutating them so they infect humans. Playing around and mutating Kennel Coughto to make it suddenly more lethal to kill off our pet population cannot be ruled out, just like Gates releasing countless mosquitoes to eliminate malaria. Suddenly, there is an outbreak of malaria that has not been in the United States for many decades.

1 Josy Napoleon

Forgive me if this does seem to be premeditated, like COVID-19, by some very deep and seriously disturbed, egotistical, depraved people no different than Hitler, who also thought of reducing the world population to create the perfect race. I know for a fact I had info BEFORE January 2020 that a “virus was coming,” proving to me it was created in a lab. This better not be the same shit. I am getting tired of these creeps who use climate to justify depopulation agendas, like the release of billions of mosquitos to prevent malaria, which had not been around for decades and magically appeared. When is someone in the DOJ going to investigate these people? Only when their own children die and magically are discovered to be infertile?

Britons Urged to Prepare for Cyber Attack or Power Grid Failure


Posted originally on Dec 12, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has urged Britons to stockpile batteries, candles, torches, and radios to prepare for a possible cyber attack or power grid failure. Dowden claims that the public has become too dependent on electronics and must learn to survive without electricity. The government plans to launch a “resilience academy” to train individuals and businesses to prepare for such disasters.

Russia pushed Ukraine off the grid earlier in the war and blocked their access to the internet (war crime according to the MSM) and Israel did the same to Palestine (not a war crime according to the MSM). We have seen hackers from Iran break into US infrastructure such as waterways, as the enemy need not be your direct neighbor. The risk of cyber warfare that attacks a nation’s infrastructure is no longer a conspiracy theory but an event the public must prepare to combat.

DOS Cyber Attack

We have also recently seen governments block their own people from the internet or implement temporary power outages to preserve their failing grids. It is concerning that some politicians are saying that we must prepare for natural disasters that could have the same impact. Labour frontbencher Pat McFadden used the topic to discuss energy usage among the “public estate.” “Why is it that the government’s new policy is to roll back on the transition mandated by its own legislation for net zero, and prolong a reliance on international fossil fuel markets? For these failures, the British public has paid a heavy price,” he commented.

Interestingly, they are still pushing for a cashless society despite these risks. Britons have been warned that there is a good chance something will occur that knocks them off the grid. The fact that they’re even suggesting battery-powered radios means they believe there is a chance that the grid could be down for an extended period of time and all communications will come to a standstill. The government would not be warning the people to stockpile CANDLES if they didn’t know of a serious threat lurking around the corner.

Special Counsel Jack Smith Asks Supreme Court to Decide Trump Immunity – Highest Court Immediately Drops All Business to Comply With Special Counsel Request


Posted originally on the CTH on December 11, 2023 | Sundance 

After years of assembling datapoints around the potential for the Supreme Court to be compromised, it was the discovery of Mary McCord’s husband Sheldon Snook deep in the office of Chief Justice John Roberts that finally sealed the deal for me personally.  Yes, the Supreme Court is compromised.

Quick Context. Mary McCord was the architect of all Trump targeting efforts. The FISA on Carter Page, the weaponization of the DOJ-NSD, the installation of Michael Atkinson as Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG), the companion to Sally Yates in the Flynn targeting, lead staff for the Schiff/Nadler impeachment effort, later appointment by FISA Presiding Judge Boasberg to be amicus to the FISC, in combination with Chief Justice John Roberts holding authority over the FISC, and the discovery that Sheldon Snook, McCord’s husband works in Robert’s office as “special assistant to Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr.’s counselor. The counselor’s office advises the chief justice not only on the management and budget of the Supreme Court but also on his interactions with the executive and legislative branches, along with numerous other public roles in which Roberts serves.” (link)

Mary McCord is the fulcrum point for all of the above issues.  She connects all of the targeting operations.  Mary McCord is the center of it, and John Robert’s office is compromised by the appointment of her husband Sheldon Snook.  So, this story below does not surprise me.

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith jumped over the appeals court and asked the Supreme Court to decide on President Trump’s position of presidential immunity for his requests to secure the integrity of the 2020 election while in office.   In the fastest turn around time in history, the Supreme Court [Robert’s office] said yes, they will hear the arguments.

[Source Link]

WASHINGTON DC – Special counsel Jack Smith is urging the Supreme Court to urgently resolve Donald Trump’s claim that he’s immune from prosecution for charges related to his bid to subvert the 2020 election.

Without the Supreme Court’s swift intervention, Trump’s trial could be indefinitely delayed, the special counsel warned in a petition to the high court on Monday.

That’s because the trial, scheduled to begin March 4, is effectively suspended while Trump pursues his appeal of the trial judge’s ruling rejecting his immunity arguments, Smith wrote. Resolution of the novel legal question is necessary to ensure the case proceeds “promptly,” he argued.

By coming directly to the Supreme Court, Smith is hoping to bypass a federal appeals court and is mounting an aggressive bid to keep the timing of the election-focused trial on track. If the March 4 trial date sticks, it would be the first trial for Trump in the four criminal cases he is facing as he mounts a bid for re-election to the White House.

[…] The justices acted quickly on Smith’s motion. In a brief order Monday afternoon, they directed Trump’s lawyers to respond by Dec. 20 to the prosecutor’s request for the Supreme Court to add the case to its docket for this term. (read more)

There’s your inflection point timeframe.

The executive branch wants Trump on trial by Super Tuesday, March 5th the main primary election date.   The legislative branch wants to extend warrantless surveillance, the mechanism to exploit the Trump supporter targeting operation, through April 19th. [Patriots Day ]

There’s the 2024 detonation timeframe, between March and mid-April.

Elon Musk herds all the MAGA groups and “domestic violent extremists” into the Twitter stadium. All seats are filled by March.  Boom, everyone scrambles.  Thousands of subpoenas released as part of the metadata hit list.

Eric Holder Outlines the Best DOJ Targeting Process He Knows – The Exact Process He and Obama Used


Posted originally on the CTH on December 11, 2023 | Sundance 

In this short clip {direct Rumble link here} former AG Eric Holder is asked about the potential for a President (Trump) to target his political opposition using the DOJ.

Not coincidentally, nor ironically, Holder goes on to outline the exact process that Joe Biden is using to target Donald Trump.  Which is the exact same process Barack Obama used through Eric Holder to target his political opposition in the aftermath of the 2010 shellacking.  First the video, then the reminder.  Eric Holder knows a great deal about how this process works, because he did exactly what he is outlining.  WATCH:

What too few people remember is that back in 2011, in the aftermath of the November 2010 shellacking of the Democrats by activist Tea Party groups around the country, AG Holder asked the Treasury Department to participate in a “special research project.”

The IRS was asked for the Schedule-B’s of groups who were registered as “patriot” groups (Tea Party Patriots) and other names associated with the political uprising against Barack Obama and the takeover of federal healthcare, ie Obamacare.   The Cincinnati field office of the IRS then sent the DOJ a batch of CD-ROM’s containing the names of the individual donors listed on the IRS 501-c (3)(4) forms.  That list was then compiled and used by the federal government to target the donors and supporters.

A Cincinnati IRS office worker blew the whistle.

An investigation was launched by congress.

IRS head Lois Lerner then pleaded the 5th amendment, and later the IRS/DOJ settled a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of the targets.

During the investigation, former Obama Chief of Staff Jack Lew was moved into position as Treasury Secretary, with the priority to cover-up and hide the DOJ initiating request.

Specifically, because the Tea Party groups were primary targeting the Republican members of the UniParty, the DOJ effort to destroy the participants was fully supported in 2012, 2013, 2014, by Republican leadership as well as complicit Democrats.  This was the most transparent UniParty cover-up operation through that date.  Only later exceeded by their unity in common cause against the Donald Trump presidency.

The Obama/Holder group learned a lesson in 2012 when the IRS whistleblower came forward.  The use of the IRS was dropped, and instead the administration switched to using the NSA database for their targeting data.  Federal officers, FBI offices and contractors working on behalf of the government, then began exploiting the NSA database for information on opposition to the Obama administration.

Approximately 80% of all NSA database searches were non-compliant.

Meanwhile, back in the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD), the Holder operation continued with the use of weaponized FISA-702 exploits as surveillance and FARA violations as the process tool.   The DOJ-NSD was created by Eric Holder and refused any DOJ inspector oversight until 2017 under the Trump administration.  The process of having no oversight made it easier for the targeting operations to continue.

This is the truth of the thing, and CTH covered it in detail as it was happening.

President Obama and AG Eric Holder did exactly what Mr. Holder is now outlining in that CNN interview.   Essentially, Holder is saying the quiet part out loud, while recognizing that too few people will ever understand that he is guilty of the exact process he is explaining.

American Wealth Declined in Q3


Posted originally on Dec 11, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

Debt Burden

According to a recent Federal Reserve report, US household wealth experienced a significant decline in the third quarter, largely attributed to deep stock losses. The central bank’s report revealed that household net worth fell by approximately $1.3 trillion, or 0.9%, from July to September, amounting to $151 trillion. The decline was primarily driven by a $1.7 trillion drop in the value of equity holdings.

This comes after a volatile year for the stock market, with all three major indexes experiencing a significant downturn in mid-2023. While the market has since recovered, the report also indicated a continued rise in household debt, which increased at a 2.5% annual rate in the third quarter. The decline in household wealth has raised concerns about its potential impact on consumer spending, borrowing, and investing, as well as its implications for the broader economy.

American Dream

Americans living off credit began pulling from their 401K accounts early during Q3. Hardship withdrawals rose 13% in the beginning of June after already being 27% higher than January. Hardship withdrawals allow employees to pull money out of their 401K for an “immediate and heavy financial need.” No one would recommend doing this unless the situation was dire as individuals must show evidence that the money will be used for a major hardship in order to avoid the 10% early withdrawal fee imposed for those under 59.5.

The year 2023 marked the first time personal credit debt surpassed $1 trillion. Credit card interest rates average 24.56%, according to LendingTree. Credit cards aside, American households are carrying $17.29 trillion in various forms of debt, with the average household hosting $103,358 in debt that continues to compound.

India Sets Export Restrictions on Popular Ingredient

India 12 2020 Protest Farmers

Onions are the latest food staple facing extensive export restrictions in an effort to control domestic prices ahead of India’s 2024 national election. The Indian government has banned the export of onions until March 31, following similar measures for wheat and rice. These actions aim to boost domestic food supply and shield consumers from rising costs.

The nation is also restricting the usage of sugar cane juice in biofuel production to grow its reserves.  The nation has also curbed wheat and rice exports in recent years and imposed significant duties. The restrictions have led to concerns about food inflation, prompting the government to take steps to stabilize the food supply.

The current food inflation rate in India is 6.61% as of October 2023, according to the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation. This marks a slight decrease from the previous month’s rate of 6.62%. The cost of food in India increased by 6.61% in October 2023 compared to the same month in the previous year. The inflation rate for food in India is expected to be 5.90% by the end of the current quarter, but the government is preparing for higher food prices GLOBALLY.

As for the central bank, the Reserve Bank of India’s decision to leave its key policy rate unchanged has raised worries about higher food prices. The average retail prices of onions, rice, sugar, and tomatoes in India have seen noteworthy increases compared to the previous year.

U Penn Loses Millions in Funding After Hamas Rallies


Posted originally on Dec 11, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

U Penn is the latest American university to lose a major donor due to misled students supporting Hamas. American universities were the first to promote the woke agenda and far-left policies. Hence it is not surprising to see privileged kids ripping down American flags and replacing them with the Palestinian flag. Hedge fund manager and former U Penn alumni Ross Stephens is now rescinding $100 million in funding from the school after the school refused to condemn pro-Palestine protests.

School President Liz Magill attempted to enact damage control after Steven’s announcement but it was too lateRonald Lauder, heir of Este Lauder, also sent a letter to President Liz Magill criticizing the Hamas rallies on campus. “You are forcing me to reexamine my financial support absent satisfactory measures to address antisemitism at the university,” Lauder wrote.

QueersforPalestine

Another billionaire, David Magerman, also penned Magill to advise her to seek donations elsewhere. “I am deeply ashamed of my association with the University of Pennsylvania. I refuse to donate another dollar to Penn,” he stated before saying he will “refuse to donate another dollar to Penn.” Then billionaire Jonathon Jacobson threatened to send Magill a mere $1 per year until she leaves office “and the Board of Trustees grows the backbone to fulfill its mission, which is to govern the university according to the principles upon which it was founded.” Even the former governor of Utah, Jon Huntsman, condemned U Penn for remaining silent and pledged to cease donations.

This is happening at schools across America. As hedge fund billion Leon Cooperman said before pulling funding from Columbia University, “I think these kids at the colleges have s–t for brains.” Unfortunately these same protestors may find themselves on a battlefield one day. The school system corrupted the youth and diluted their minds with this alternate reality  where Palestine loves the gays and American capitalism is responsible for the world’s problems.
