Joe Rogan has been strongly criticized for promoting COVID-19 misinformation, but he insists he is simply debating the issues
On December 13 he invited Dr Peter McCullough onto his podcast, and McCullough made a series of false claims about COVID ...the Daily Mail writer forgot to put scare quotes around “false claims”...
On December 31, Rogan hosted Dr Robert Malone, who shared his contentious views with Rogan's 11 million listeners
Spotify, which hosts Rogan's podcast, is under pressure to drop their huge star from their rosta
Neil Young and Joni Mitchell are among the musicians to remove their music from Spotify in protest, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are 'concerned'

^ Yes. With all the talk about musicians pulling their material off Spotify, where's the usual gleeful announcements from the left about the advertisers pulling out?

The ads within the advertisers have a larger audience, such as Black Rifle Coffee's 'Master the French Press'.

Joni, Neil and their fellow Geritol-flower children are fighting a losing battle. The whole rotten structure of lies and BS is collapsing now, thanks to the judge's order forcing Pfizer to start releasing their heretofore secret documents from their vaccine trials.
The Pfizer trials data is coming out. Biostaticuans around the world are starting to comb through what's been released -- and it's worse, far worse, than anyone suspected:
The data are overwhelming. This is the biggest policy debacle in modern history.
With the Pfizer data coming out now, the end is nigh. There will absolutely be political consequences.
The blame game will begin soon. Prime Minister Ron Klain and His Crapulosity's Government will sacrifice Fauci.
The Democrats will try to fix elections but their support will crater and the GOP will sweep the elections outside of CA NY IL and a few corrupt rotten boroughs like Fulton County, Wayne County MI, Philly etc.

The one to watch now is American Pravda aka NYTimes. Their science and finance writers are smart enough to realize that the game's over.
They talk to the Mass General doctors who've said omicron's about finished and it's now just seasonal flu. They see that the North European nations, every one of them except the Teutons, are abandoning lockdowns and mandates and have gone 180 degrees in reverse: UK NL DK SE IE--all of them, opening up now.
If the NYTimes starts covering the release of this horrific Pfizer data, there will be a political earthquake.

Fauxi is going under the bus, and the people who originally chose him specifically for his megalomaniacal mountebank style know he won't go quietly. So, he goes "unexpectedly." IYKWIMAITYD.

Obviously we need much more time to dive into those (incomplete, also redacted) Pfizer trials data documents. It can't be the case that 3% of those jabbed in the first three months died, so the denominator here must be far larger than what the Canadians (linked above) inferred.
But here's the point: we know from Pfizer that this three month rollout caused, minimum, 1,227 deaths. In the US, the first 3 months' rollout was severely limited to a few elderly and healthcare workers -- just a few million or so. A death rate from the vaccine of 1,227 / 3m would be about 400 per million. Even the highest estimates of COVID death rates in a three month period are not much higher than 400 per million population.
IOW it seems clear from even this limited dataset that the Pfizer vaccine did not significantly reduce the COVID death rate and actually killed a significant number of those who took the Pfizer jab.
[ZeroHedge] What always proceeds gun confiscation historically? A Registry.
A Registry of guns and gun owners is a tool that the federal government, the DOJ, and the ATF have had on their wish list for decades now. Anti-gun politicians and lobbyists have sold a registry as a tool for stopping crime, enforcing universal background checks, and ensuring public safety.
In reality, a Registry guarantees that large-scale confiscation will happen at some point. That's why the ATF is forbidden explicitly from keeping a searchable database by law.
Today, Gun Owners of America announced that the ATF has nearly 1 Billion records of firearm purchases, with over 850 million of those records in digital format. These records contain all sorts of personal information on gun owners in addition to the gun they've purchased. Important personal information, including their names, addresses, place of birth, sometimes even social security numbers, can all be found on these records.
The firearm transaction records that the ATF is referring to is the ATF Form 4473. Federal law currently states that a firearms dealer can destroy 4473 forms after 20 years. If a firearms dealer goes out of business or closes before those 20 years, federal law says dealers must hand over those forms to the ATF.

[Regnum] On January 30, Channel One aired the documentary “The Romanov Case. Investigation found…” As a result of various and numerous examinations, it was concluded that the remains found in the Piglet Log near Yekaterinburg belong to the Romanovs and their servants.
On the night of July 16-17, 1918, in the basement of the house of the Yekaterinburg mining engineer Ipatiev, which after the revolution became the House of Special Purpose, the former emperor Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra Fedorovna, daughters Olga, Tatyana, Maria, Anastasia and son Alexei were shot. Doctor Yevgeny Botkin, a footman Alexei Trupp, a maid Anna Demidova and a cook Ivan Kharitonov, who were with the Romanovs, also became victims of the massacre.
The murder of ten people - members of the royal family and servants is a crime and has no justification.
The situation with Nicholas II is different. In modern Russia, the monstrous crimes committed during the years of his reign are not often remembered. But the number of victims of Bloody Sunday was in the thousands.
On January 9 (22), 1905, in different parts of St. Petersburg, pre-concentrated troops used weapons against peaceful processions of workers exhausted by problems. They went to Nikolai to tell about their troubles and aspirations. “The owner of the Russian land,” as Nicholas II called himself, answering the questions of the 1897 census, did not want to communicate with them. Instead of fatherly words, the workers and members of their families heard the whistle of bullets.
Ten days after the bloody massacre, on January 19 (February 1), the emperor received a working delegation, the composition of which was carefully selected. "Compassionate" Nikolai did not find anything better than to tell the workers that he forgives them ...
The entry made by the emperor in his diary on January 11 (24) is also noteworthy: “After breakfast, I received Rear Admiral Nebogatov, who was appointed commander of an additional detachment of the Pacific Ocean squadron.”
By that time, Port Arthur had already fallen, and the squadron under the command of Vice Admiral Zinovy Rozhdestvensky was stationed in Madagascar. In this situation, the Japanese fleet had a clear superiority in forces. Yes, and he was based in his ports. Nicholas II was not embarrassed. Rozhdestvensky received his order:
"The task entrusted to you is not to break through to Vladivostok with some ships, but to take possession of the Sea of Japan."
As a result, on May 14-15 (27-28) in a two-day battle near about. Tsushima, the Russian fleet suffered the most severe defeat in its history. In it, according to Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich, Nicholas II "could not blame anyone but himself ".
The loss figures are horrifying: the Japanese sank 21 out of 38 Russian ships, and captured seven. Six ships were interned in neutral ports. The Almaz cruiser, the Anadyr transport, the destroyers Grozny and Bravy broke into Vladivostok. Of the 16,170 sailors, 5,045 were killed, and 7,282 sailors, led by the fleet commander, were captured. However, these victims in Russia are remembered 1000 times less often than the execution in the Ipatiev house. But each of the dead had relatives and friends, many sailors had children.
The situation with the memory of the Lena massacre is even worse - in 2012, its centennial anniversary passed completely unnoticed. Meanwhile, the Lena massacre and what preceded it is an extremely interesting and instructive topic. It helps to get rid of illusions about how wonderful life was in Russia under the last emperor.
On the eve of the 110th anniversary of the Lena tragedy, it is worth telling about it in detail. Go to this link to read the rest of the article in English

[REGNUM] On July 6, 1918, the German ambassador to the RSFSR, Count Wilhelm von Mirbach, was killed. His name was often heard at the Fifth Congress of Soviets and on its sidelines as a symbol of violence and German imperialism.
The murderers of the German diplomat were Ya. G. Blyumkin and N. A. Andreev, who arrived with documents from the Cheka "in connection with a case directly related to the Ambassador."
[PJMedia] Payroll firm ADP says the US lost more than 300,000 jobs in January, and omicron is taking the blame.
December’s impressive jobs gains were also revised downwards.
“Unexpectedly” is the code word once again, as Wall Street had predicted the economy would produce 200,000 new jobs instead.
January is the first month since December 2020 that the economy has lost jobs.
Despite White House boasts that 2021 produced more jobs than any other year, we’re still more than 3.5 million jobs shy of where the economy was in February 2020, before the demonstrably useless COVID shutdowns.
The Biden economy hasn’t been creating new jobs. it has been recovering needlessly destroyed jobs — and far too slowly. Or at least it was until now. The expected “v-shaped recovery” has been impeded by continuing lockdowns in two of our biggest states, Democrat-run California and New York.
Return to economic normalcy has also been delayed by Bidenflation, Biden’s war on domestic energy production, and Biden’s return to ruthless overregulation.
“Service-providing industries were responsible for 274,000 of the job losses,” reports CNBC, “with goods producers falling by 27,000.”
The Biden administration knew this was coming, too.
On Monday, White House spokesweasel Jen Psaki pre-spun the lousy numbers, falsely claiming that the “nearly nine million people [who] called out sick in early January” might be counted as unemployed.
But that’s not how the Bureau of Labor Statistics (their report is due out Friday) or ADP counts job losses.
ADP’s chief economist, Nela Richardson, said, “The labor market recovery took a step back at the start of 2022 due to the effect of the omicron variant and its significant, though likely temporary, impact to job growth.”
Left unsaid: How omicron caused 300,000 people to lose their jobs.
The Fed is also keeping a close eye on the jobs report. Our “transitory” inflation problem seems to have settled in for at least the medium term, but the Fed won’t raise inflation-killing interest rates so long as the job market is weak.
There’s a word for economic stagnation combined with inflation, something economists once believed could never happen at the same time: Stagflation.
That word was coined during the 1970s, the last time government over-regulation and funny-money policies combined to strangle growth and spark inflation.
Related: More from CNBC courtesy of Lord Garth has a deeper dive into the numbers.
The past 6 months, the BLS has reported fewer job gains than the ADP survey and by several hundred thousand in some months. So I wouldn't be surprised to see a much different result

I'm super impressed with the decision to claim a modest 200k increase and any disparaging numbers are due to people taking a couple weeks off for sniffles and quarantine.
Now they look off by a cool half million, which even the dunderheads and tru-believers know is way outside a rounding error, and everyone who has had to take a sick leave is like, "That isn't how it works."

Some peoples' position on anything is whatever the media and / or some celebrity tells them it should be. That's what's keeping the number from being higher.

And yet the unemployment rate unaccountably dropped, amirite?
[JPost]"It just appears that way because of all the time we hate/oppose the Juice. It's a coincidence" Amnesty International released a report accusing Israel of apartheid.

Amnesty International, the original AI, died with the original members that knew what horror was seeing the Holocaust and the Berlin Wall. The 'Red Diaper Babies' that took it over in the 90's.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
