Australia NSW Ministry of COVID Compliance Will Permit Weddings to Resume, Limit Five Guests – Health Minister Brad Hazzard Announces State Interest in Continued Breeding


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on August 28, 2021 | Sundance | 206 Comments

Comrades, good news down-under.  The New South Wales Ministry of COVID Compliance has announced effective Friday captured citizens will be permitted to get married again; however, only five persons of ideological alignment will be permitted to witness any formal union or celebration.

During the announcement (video below, first six minutes), NSW COVID Compliance Health Minister Brad Hazzard, also announced various government officials have reviewed the potential social impacts from an absence of procreation; and determined that without further breeding the ministerial ruling-class could lose the workforce they need for ongoing services.  It is therefore in the best interests of the state for the regional ministry to approve a restart for the institution of marriage.

The restart of state approval for the institution of marriage is welcome news, and was made while contrasting sad news of two citizens who recently died from the Coronavirus.  Both formerly free-range citizens were females, one in her 70’s and one in her 80’s, and they are latest victims of COVID-19; which is a warning for the entire population of several million about the severity of risk.

In case you missed it…. a few days ago the Premier of the New South Wales directorate announced citizens would be permitted one hour of exercise outside the home, as long as the regulated activity takes place within open hours during the ongoing lockdown.   A curfew remains in effect from 9pm to 5am daily.  The new hour of outside exercise is permitted between 5am to 9pm, and –just like prison yard time– the time will be carefully monitored by state compliance officers.

Non-compliant citizens who may be tempted to exceed the permitted hour of exercise time should remember the state can monitor free-range activity via geolocation from cell phones (portable transponder).  Most Australian citizens located outdoors are required to keep their electronic medical identification available for review by authorities at checkpoints as well as their essential worker permits.  To ensure the public health, citizens must also scan QR codes at designated monitoring locations.

The state appreciates citizens who monitor their neighbors and use the national alert hotline to notify authorities of any resident who exceeds their approved outdoor recreation time limit, or is spotted attempting to exercise outside of the approved times of day.  [New South Wales Article] – [Queensland Article]

♦ The Premier of the New South Wales directorate (Sydney area) is Comrade Premier Gladys Berejiklian. She has announced a magnanimous position to relieve the stress upon the year-long lockdowns.

As the Australian news is reporting:

(Via NINE NEWS) […] “From September 13, households living in the NSW government’s LGAs of concern will be allowed to spend an additional hour of recreation outdoors, as long as all adults in the household are fully vaccinated. This is on top of the already-permitted hour of exercise, meaning households will be able to visit a park, Ms Berejiklian said. However, people must take this hour within the current and ongoing curfew hours, which will continue.” [9pm to 5am]

“Outside the LGAs of concern, through the rest of Greater Sydney and regional NSW, five people will be allowed to gather outdoors, as long as all adults are fully vaccinated.”

“People who live alone can nominate one designated family member or friend to visit for companionship. However, “Singles bubbles” will be required to be registered on nsw.gov.au” (read more)

Masks are mandatory everywhere outside the home except when exercising.  However, authorized workers must carry a New South Wales essential workers permit and present their papers at each checkpoint during travel or transit.

♦ Moving slightly north to the Queensland Directorate, they are proud to announce a new COVID Quarantine Camp being built to the West of Brisbane in a place near Toowoomba.

The nearest hospital is two hours away, but that didn’t stop Queensland’s Comrade Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk from signing a lease on the remote area to build a 1,000 bed involuntary quarantine camp for persons who test positive for COVID-19.

Comrade Annastacia Palaszczuk said construction has begun on Thursday for a dedicated regional quarantine facility at Wellcamp Airport near Toowoomba following months of discussion. The premier said the fit-for-purpose facility will be ready by the end of the year, and will eventually have the capacity for 1,000 beds.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Thursday the facility does not meet national guidelines, but wished the state “every success” as they build the involuntary containment and quarantine facility.

The federal government has previously said it was not in favor of a quarantine facility at Wellcamp because it did not meet the criteria of being within easy access of a passenger airport terminal or tertiary hospital.

BRISBANE TIMES – […] “The facility, near Toowoomba, would be almost a two-hour drive from the nearest tertiary hospital in Brisbane but could accommodate international passenger flights along with the limited overseas freight that already lands at the site.

Positive patients would be transported either by ambulance or airlifted to Brisbane’s existing COVID hospitals.

Asked if the Prime Minister knew about the announcement, the Premier said, “I’m quite sure he does now,” confirming she had not spoken to him and federal approval was still needed for such flights to be redirected to Wellcamp, which she hoped would come once the “heat” was out of the issue.

“We can bus people from Brisbane up here if we have to,” Ms Palaszczuk said. “If you build it, they will come.” (read more)

California Governor Worries His Recall is a Referendum on Joe Biden and Democrats


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on August 28, 2021 | Sundance | 334 Comments

The Atlantic Article interviewing the perpetually inept far-left advocate for all things big government, Gavin Newsom, doesn’t specifically say the California governor is worried about his recall being a wider referendum on Joe Biden, but the gorilla in the room is visible through the fear the interview conveys.

The left-wing Democrat socialists writ large have pushed their agenda so hard against the common threads that bind American society, that now the Newsom recall effort looks like an opportunity for common-sense to push back.  I smile because there are trembles amid the dark forces of the globalists, the multinationals and the institutional corporations who need Newsom and his Democrat tribe.

This recall effort was never supposed to be close.  With foam filled spittle they shout angrily, “THIS IS CALIFORNIA, for God’s sake“; without even a hint of self awareness surrounding their invocation of the one pure element that destroys all the evil they support.  Indeed, “for God’s sake” is exactly the reason Newsom is being held to account.

Within the interview,  Newsom lashes out at the world against him. “I’m now feeling the weight of this decision, and a weight of responsibility to defeat this, and also the responsibility that if we fall short, I’m going to own that,” he said. He mentioned to me some of his recent initiatives, including the injection of billions of dollars of federal relief money into the state budget and signing a bill to expand health care to undocumented workers. “If I do fall short, I’ll regret every damn one of those decisions. And I don’t want to have any regrets for putting everything out there and doing … what I think is right and what I think is in the best interest of California.”

Using the guise of COVID as a justification for advancing their ultimate ideological desires, Newsom’s tribe have destroyed education, shut down independent businesses; weaponized the police force by using SWAT team storm troopers to enforce their unilateral dictates; pushed the forced masks upon the electorate, and demanded that California residents undergo untested forced vaccinations in order to live in their utopian society.   Gee, a reckoning might be coming…. and they are shocked, shocked.

ATLANTIC – […] Recalls can deliver immediate emotional satisfaction to dissatisfied voters, and there are many dissatisfied voters in California. You can be mad at Newsom because you never liked him in the first place. You can be mad about his ego, his peevishness, and his sense of entitlement. You can be mad because Donald Trump is your model of what a leader should be; you can be mad because of the way Newsom’s handled wildfires and drought; you can be mad at him because you’re tired of pandemic shutdowns. You can be mad about anything. All those angry Californians’ votes will go on the recall pile. And if that pile is big enough, Newsom will be out before Halloween.

His replacement would probably be someone who opposes strict anti-coronavirus measures; the end of California’s mask mandates and COVID-19 lockdowns would quickly follow. Then another potential ripple: If Dianne Feinstein, the state’s aging and ailing senior senator, was unable to finish her term, whoever wins the recall—if not Newsom then most likely a Republican—would appoint her replacement. The Senate is split 50–50, and Vice President Kamala Harris holds the tie-breaking vote. How much Californians care to keep Newsom, a governor who often provokes only tepid support even among his voters, could end up deciding the fate of the Democrats’ Senate majority and the entire Biden agenda. (read more)

Perhaps I am alone in my thinking as I read those pearl-clutching words; but the only thing that comes to mind is, “tough sh!t jackass,“.  You think it sucks to be you?  Try being one of the proles who have been forced to scrape and scrounge for survival amid the chaos Newsom and his tribe have created.

Newsom is worried about the success of a recall effort?  He should be.   So should every evil, conniving, scheming woke tribalist who thrives on creating toxic clouds of despair that only settle upon citizens without resources to elevate their social status and gain a seat at the gilded table amid the corporate penthouse.  “Eff you“…COVID Compliance Minister Gavin Newsom, and the entire tribe who supports you.

I spit in Newsom’s direction…

Good luck California Patriots.   I hope you unite together in common cause and destroy this creature.

Marine Battalion Commander, Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller, Relieved of Duty For Criticizing Pentagon Decision on Bagram AFB


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on August 27, 2021 | Sundance | 265 Comments

Lt. Col Scheller made a public Facebook post criticizing the insufferable decisions in Afghanistan that led to the deaths of 13 U.S. Marines.   The primary issue was the closure of Bagram air base, which many have looked upon at the most brutally obvious strategic blunders in the Afghan exit.  Within his remarks Scheller said:

“I’m not saying we’ve got to be in Afghanistan forever. But I am saying, did any of you throw your rank on the table and say, ‘Hey, it’s a bad idea to evacuate Bagram Airfield, a strategic airbase, before we evacuate everyone’? Did anyone do that? And when you didn’t think to do that, did anyone raise their hand and say, ‘We completely messed this up’?”  WATCH BELOW:

Shortly after Lt. Col. Scheller posted this video he was removed from command.  Despite the overwhelming agreement we share with his outlook, it is also true that compromising or questioning command leadership is a valid reason for removal.  That’s why CTH was angered at the Pentagon failure to remove Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman after he questioned the Commander in Chief, President Trump.  A brutal double standard.

In a follow-up Facebook post, Scheller noted he was relieved of command at 14:30 today.

Taliban Ask Qatar For Technical Assistance Running Kabul Airport


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on August 27, 2021 | Sundance | 175 Comments

Originally the plan of the Taliban was to have Turkey send the people they need to run the airport in Kabul.  However, Turkish President Recep Erdogan told the Taliban he would willingly run the airport for them, but his 600 troops would need to remain as part of the airport security detachment.  The Taliban said no, the Turkish military needed to leave along with all the NATO troops. As a consequence Turkey said until you change your mind, run your own airport.

Here comes plan number two.  Plan number two is the Taliban calling on their second ally in the region, Qatar.

Now, remember, Qatar is home-base for the Muslim Brotherhood.  Both Qatar and Turkey are supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood (Barack Obama supports them also).  The Brotherhood is the political operation of al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, ISIS, ISIS-K and the Taliban.

The Muslim Brotherhood is the covering fabric, and the various Islamic extremist groups are the splines of the extremist umbrella.

Now the Taliban have asked Qatar to run the airport: CAIRO, Aug 27 (Reuters) – The Taliban will ask Qatar for technical assistance in operating Kabul airport, Qatari based Al Jazeera news channel reported on Friday citing a source in the Islamist movement.

The Taliban have asked Turkey for technical help to run the airport after next Tuesday’s deadline for all foreign military forces to pull out of Afghanistan, an ultimatum they say applies equally to Turkish troops.

Earlier today, two officials told Reuters Turkey will not help run the airport after NATO’s withdrawal unless the movement agrees to a Turkish security presence, after deadly attacks outside the airport highlighted the perils of any such mission. (link)

This request highlights the weird realignment we discussed two weeks ago:

(1) The Muslim Brotherhood.  There were reports from Qatar that MB leadership is heading back into Afghanistan.  This is predictable.  The Muslim Brotherhood is the political umbrella for authentic Islam (ie. extremists).  The Brotherhood supports the al-Qaeda regional affiliates including the Taliban, al-Nusra, and others.  Qatar is the financial center of the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Brotherhood is political Islam.

(2) China.  Most people don’t realize that China shares a common border with Afghanistan and has issues with Islamic extremists and sympathizers.  China has benefited from the U.S. in Afghanistan keeping the Taliban in check.  A U.S. retreat now means China needs to engage with the Taliban to bolster their national security interests.  China will establish diplomatic ties with the Taliban partly because Beijing uses duplicitous diplomacy as a strategy.  [It ain’t because China likes the Taliban]

(3) Turkey.  Unfortunately for Europe, Turkey is both a NATO member (stupid decision) and aligned in common cause with the Muslim Brotherhood.  Turkish President Recep Erdogan has previously given safe harbor to the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood upon their exit from Qatar, when the Gulf Cooperation Council (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait, UAE, Oman, Bahrain) demanded Qatar stop supporting terrorists (the Brotherhood).

The EU will not want to recognize the Taliban, but Turkey most certainly will… regardless of what the EU wants, because Erdogan is aligned with extremist Islam.  Europe is weak and always ends up acquiescing to the threats of Turkey; so don’t look for much other than pearl clutching from NATO members about it.

(4) Europe.  As noted above, the EU doesn’t support Islamic extremism; however, the EU is now infiltrated with Islamic extremism, and the EU is too worried about cultural sensitivities to do anything about it.  They will likely try another round of multiculturalism advocacy, which will likely end just like the last time with fracture and cultural crisis because the Islamic extremists attack, murder and rape too many EU people.  It will be a mess again.

(5) Pakistan.  The Pakistani government is already aligned in common purpose with the Taliban, and have been supporting them under the table the entire time the U.S. was in Afghanistan (See UBL compound etc).  China has invested heavily in Pakistan and created reasonably strong ties.  China needs the assistance of Pakistan to help leverage their need for regional national security from the Taliban in Afghanistan.

(6) Russia.  Oddly Russia and the EU have the same outlook toward the Taliban in Afghanistan.  However, where the EU is twisted in pretzel knots of political correctness, Russia is not.  Look for Russian President Vladimir Putin to exploit his own interests in the EU via strength and a closer relationship. How? Because Russia can keep the Taliban and Turkey in check if the NATO members are blackmailed by Afghanistan and Erdogan.

*Note – NATO was formed to keep Russia in check…. and now we will likely watch Russia helping NATO keep their step-child, Turkey, in check. How’s that for some geopolitical irony?

Summary:  Qatar (Muslim Brotherhood) will help the Taliban (al-Qaeda).  China will form tenuous and conniving ties with the Taliban, likely relying on economics.  Turkey will support the Taliban and look for help, eventually, to assist Erdogan re-attain the Ottoman Empire he lusts. The EU is stuck between Russia and a hard place (Turkey), and will likely end up on team Putin.

Joe Biden will eat jello…. and the leftists in the U.S. State Department will run to their proverbial Alamo, The United Nations.

Wait for it…

HISTORY – President Obama’s February ’09 Cairo speech began a sequence of events that led to what was called the “Arab Spring“; factually an extremist uprising.  Bolstered by the resulting chaos the Muslim Brotherhood rose to power in Egypt behind Mohammed Morsi.

However, a majority of the Egyptian people rejected President Morsi’s sharia governance, and asked a well respected General Fattah al-Sisi to step in.  Accepting the request of a desperate people Sisi removed Morsi, disbanded the Muslim Brotherhood and went on to win a landslide election in 2014.   The leadership of the Brotherhood fled to Qatar.

President Obama and his policy team were not happy with this outcome.  Obama supported Morsi, not al-Sisi.  Another person who was not happy, was Turkish President Recep Erdogan, who also supported Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Undeterred, and understanding the need for urgency, Egyptian President al-Sisi then began a long process of confronting extremism.  Sisi destroyed the Hamas terror tunnels on the border between Egypt and Israel; and, despite the anxiety expressed by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, Sisi brokered an interim peace agreement between the Palestinian Authority and Israelis.

Destroying the Hamas tunnels removed the physical terror influence of Iran.  President al-Sisi then returned his focus back to Qatar and their support for the exiled leadership of the Brotherhood.

President al-Sisi formed a coalition against Qatar. This coalition included the UAE and Saudi Arabia who withdrew their ambassadors and isolated Qatar in the region.  This was the beginning of what we now call more broadly the Arab coalition.  The coalition initiated sanctions against Qatar until they stopped financing and harboring terror.  Remember this is late in 2014 and a lot is happening really fast.

Against growing pressure from Arab states, including the Gulf Cooperation Council, Qatar agreed to expel seven leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood.  Again reflecting his alignment with the Brotherhood, and with much more grand ambitions of a new Ottoman empire as his unspoken motive, Recep Erdogan provided the terror leaders a home in Turkey.

It is important to note timing (’13, ’14, ’15,) and the political alignments:

  • President Obama, Turkey (Erdogan), Qatar, the Palestinian Authority, and Iran, were aligned with favorable outlook toward the Muslim Brotherhood.
  • Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE and the Gulf Arab states were not favorable toward the Muslim Brotherhood.

In the background of this ideological conflict, Syria is in a state of civil war as a result of U.S. Obama policy carried out by Secretary Clinton/Leon Panetta and Secretary Kerry/John Brennan.  Obama was aligned with Turkey, again Erodgan, who wants greater influence and has a vision of his new Ottoman empire.  As gatekeeper between Europe and the Middle East, Erdogan knows the value of his geography and the influence it provides him.

Erdogan also wants to absorb Northern Syria and is willing to enlist his Muslim Brotherhood allies toward his goals.  However, Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia and the UAE (team anti-Brotherhood) are against the expansion of Turkish influence.

Despite President Obama’s ongoing opposition, Egyptian President al-Sisi faced down Turkey over a U.N. Security Council seat and quietly defeated them.  [In a secret ballot, Erdogan lost.]  At the same time this was happening, expansive energy reserves via natural gas, were discovered to be much larger than initially thought off the coast of Israel.

♦ TEAM One – The Department of State is aligned with the CIA.  Their media PR firms are CNN, CNNi and the Washington Post. Their ideology is favorable to the United Nations.  Their internal corruption is generally driven by relationship with foreign actors.  References: Hillary Clinton, Clinton Global Initiative, John McCain, Qatar, Muslim Brotherhood, Samantha Powers, Susan Rice, Cass Sunstein, Brookings Institute, Lawfare, China-centric, Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Council on Foreign Relations.

♦ TEAM Two – The White House is aligned with the Pentagon (DoD) and National Security Council (NSC).  Their media PR firms are domestic in nature. New York Times, Politico, etc.  Their internal corruption is generally driven by domestic influence.  References: Barack Obama, George Bush, Wall St, Big Banks, Multinational Corporations, Defense Contractors, FBI (state police), Judicial Branch, and community activists writ large.

Both teams are highly political. However, the State Dept/CIA team consider themselves above political changes; essentially the deeper Deep State.

Alarming Report Showing Pfizer Vaccination Extortion Highlights Influence of Big Pharma and Multinationals on Geopolitical Stage


Posted originally on the conservative tree house August 27, 2021 | Sundance | 268 Comments

An excellent independent news report from WION points out the extortion Pfizer is conducting in order to leverage their own financial interests in various countries around the globe.  As outlined in the expose’,  The U.S. pharma company is asking for military bases and sovereign assets as guarantee for vaccines delivery.

We have noted how the U.S. government has moved to merge ideological interests with Big Tech to control information.  In this report about Pfizer,  you see the same merging of government and the pharmaceutical industry to advance their collective interests.  There is a word for government and corporations working together to control society…

BIG PICTURE – While the specifics of this report focus on multinational corporation Pfizer and the control over the COVID vaccine, it is worth remembering the same type of influence operation happens in other industries.  That is an outcome of the world being driven by government and multinational corporations working together.

What Big Pharma is to global medicines, specifically vaccines, Big Agriculture is to global food production, in every sector.

What Pfizer is doing to extort nations to maximize their profit, so too is Monsanto or Cargill operating on the same premise.  A lemon costs you .89 cents because they want it to cost you .89 cents; not because a ‘free market’ prices it at .89 cents.   The multinationals have long passed the place where ‘free markets’ exist.  Everything is now a controlled market.  {Go Deep}

The Biden Blame Buck


Posted originally on GrrrGraphics.com on AUG 27, 2021 AT 10:55 AM,

Joe Biden claims the buck stops with him, but he’d rather pin the blame on circumstances, the Afghan people, and especially President Trump.

Biden now has blood on his hands. His blundering has caused the death of many. He has disgraced our nation. He has left billions of dollars worth of military equipment to our enemies and now he has provided the Taliban with a list of Americans he intends to leave behind. Biden is a traitor. Not only should he resign in disgrace, he needs to face a military tribunal.

The buck should never have been passed to Joe because he’s a counterfeit president.

Australia Flattening the Curve


Armstrong Economics Blog/Australia & Oceania Re-Posted Aug 27, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Australian police have won the International Award for the most morally corrupt police force of any undemocratic regime in human history. They have actually beat the police of Venezuela for their ruthlessness and inability to think for themselves, just like the German Nazis who also just were following orders.

To the Australian police diligently working hard to destroy their country — Good On Ya!

Marking the Unvaccinated As they Marked Jews in the 1930s


Armstrong Economics Blog/Regulation Re-Posted Aug 27, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

History indeed repeats. In Europe, they demand that the “unvaccinated” wear masks to identify themselves, just as the Jews were forced to wear yellow stars to identify themselves in society. Interestingly, there were Jews in Germany who saw the threats and set sail for America. I was told many years ago that other Jews thought they were crazy. To put it in today’s terminology, they were conspiracy theorists. The lies about everything to create this lockdown to crush the economy so they can Build Back Better are gradually surfacing. Hopefully, the majority will wake up and see that they have been played for the fool. The conspiracy theorists of the 1930s in Germany were correct. Little by little, the “conspiracy theorists” today will also be correct.

Yet, the vaccinated are now still vulnerable to getting and spreading COVID-19. When will the lie be exposed? How much longer? The computer shows the collapse in public confidence, which is becoming obvious. They should have listened to Lincoln who said it is “better to remain silent and be thought a fool” than to speak and to remove all doubt. World leaders have spoken and are clearly fools if they actually believed COVID could be eradicated with lockdowns and vaccines.

The collapse in confidence in government also means that you then do not buy their debt at artificially low interest rates. That means the financial system is unsustainable, which is why they are pushing digital currencies to enforce all taxes. At some point, even the fool who they see as the public awakens.

As one reader wrote:

Marty,Despite many believing the government line about the sponsored “vaccines”, could it be it is the vaccine that proves to be their undoing? Yes, Big Tech is suppressing any negative reports but still leaks are happening calling into question the safety of these experimental treatments. If all these variants of covid now spreading to those already vaccinated show they, too, are vulnerable, it seems at some point even the “faithful” lose heart. When added to those who have rejected these experiments, it lines up with the notion the vaccines will ultimately be rejected down the road. Countries like India, which has relief on ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin, with great success, also work to undermine the “party line”. Western leaders have gone “all in” on vaccines, using the Green pass, requiring vaccines as the key discriminator to reentry into society. What happens when this breaks down? Not if, but when?If the perception is the vaccine campaign was one big scam, then this will be the primary cause of the Great Reset. Forcing those to get the vaccine, when the vaccine itself is dubious, shows the vaccine is their weapon, which is now malfunctioning. I think these experimental vaccines are one of two bad reports away from triggering revulsion…that will be seen as the key turning point in this fake virus scare campaign.MS
