[PJ] Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) blasted "America’s doctor," NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, for a COVID "cover-up" involving America’s Big Tech firms.
"I think that all of America should be appalled that America’s doctor, the leading expert on COVID and public health, doesn’t want to divulge information, doesn’t want to divulge his communications with Big Tech," Paul said on Fox News Wednesday night.
I believe the cover-up is probably real and that Paul’s use of "America’s doctor" was likely facetious. Daring opinions I just shared, I know.
Paul, himself a physician, said, "It goes even beyond" Fauci keeping secret communications with social media firms like Facebook. The diminutive celebrity medical spokesmodel also refused to discuss $193 million in COVID royalties paid to nearly 2,000 NIH scientists."
Fauci’s modus operandi, Paul said, "is to cover up and try to not allow any sunshine on any of his activities. That should be a tip-off as to his motives."
It’s a bit sinister that NIH scientists can be paid secret royalties —averaging about $107,000 — from pharmaceutical firms whose products that NIH recommends or that Washington mandates. It gets worse.

Nice answer Karen. Las I checked The White House has a number of bedrooms.
[AlexBerenson] Deaths in the Australian state of Victoria, where 95 percent of adults have received Covid vaccines and most are boosted with mRNA shots, soared to their highest level in at least 13 years in August - far above the five-year average.
Victoria offers almost unique data: near-real-time reporting on death trends in millions of people who are heavily vaccinated but had little exposure to Covid before being jabbed.
The picture is increasingly grim.
Victoria registered 4,896 deaths from all causes in August, 27 percent above the monthly average of the previous five Augusts. Mortality in Australia typically peaks June through August, the Southern Hemisphere’s winter, but the figure is only the latest in a disturbing trend.
So far in 2022, Victoria has registered 32,533 deaths, 20 percent above its average for the same eight-month period from 2017 through 2021. Victoria has had more than 4000 deaths in five months since February; it crossed that threshold only in seven months in the previous 12 years.
In general, deaths in Victoria have typically fallen in a very narrow band. In each year from 2017 to 2021, the state reported between 26,350 and 27,800 deaths for the eight months from January to August.
Not anymore.

Throw all of those "voting machines" into a dumpster and go back to a paper and pencil like we've had for hundreds of years. How much more obvious could the solution possibly be ?
[IndependentSentinal] Switzerland plans to imprison residents for up to three years if they heat rooms above 66 degrees (19C). The country also might fine people up to 3,000 Swiss Francs. What's the temp in the prisons?
Well, sure, why not? These authoritarians think they can do anything they want.
In gas-heated buildings, water could not be heated to more than 140F (60C). Companies not abiding by the rule could face punishment.
They are under strict sanctions over the Ukraine war.
Radiant heaters would be banned, and saunas and swimming pools would have to be cold.
Speaking to Blick, Markus Sporndli, a spokesman for the Federal Department of Finance, explained that the rate for fines daily could start at 30 Swiss Francs (£26) and go up to a maximum fine up to 3,000 Swiss Francs (£2,667).
According to the EU Times, these new rules are entirely fake and artificial. While Switzerland does NOT have its own gas reserves and was dependent on Russia, restricting electricity and banning radiant heaters shows how fake this whole "crisis" is.
Switzerland has enough electricity to power not only itself but neighboring countries as well. Almost 100% of its electricity production is "green," not the new green like solar panels and windmills but the good old-fashioned hydroelectric dams and nuclear power plants. None of these power plants require Russian gas or any type of gas or burning to function and produce electricity. They produce electricity through turbine rotations just like a bike bottle dynamo functions. More at the link.

If their prisons are as nice as some of the others I have seen around that area , it might not be so bad. Better than freezing anyway.

It's a government racket -- they planned on selling the power at inflated prices this winter to Austria and Germany, yes? Greed camouflaged as Virtue...

Switzerland is about to break their "Peaceful Status Streak", and they will need to use their "instant messaging system" to call out the civil guard.
In a live chat released on Monday, Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips, appeared together on "truethevote.locals.com" to discuss their 15-month involvement with what was characterized to them as a "counter-intelligence operation" with the Federal Bureau of Investigation into American election company Konnech Inc.
Konnech, which is based out of East Lansing, Michigan, builds software to manage the poll workers, poll locations, campaigns, assets, and supplies necessary to run elections in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
In January 2021, Phillips said that the cyber analyst he had been working with encountered an "oddity in some of the URLs" such as vote4la.com, vote4detroit.com, and vote4boston.com, which Konnech’s "PollChief" software application used to gather personally-identifying information about poll workers.
Using Binary Edge, a software product companies use to identify and assess the risk of cyber breaches, "We began to look at where do these URLs actually resolve to. We found that most of them resolve to one IP address and that IP address — the URL resolved in China," Phillips said.
"What we also learned in our review, apps.konnech.com [.net], resolved into this same URL in China, meaning that the application itself was residing in China," he continued.
"In Binary Edge, you can figure out what type of database they are using, their database port, and all the different services offered by ports in this particular application living in China. It turned out that not only did it live there, but they left the database open."
This database "stored the personally identifying information of over a million Americans," he emphasized.
Engelbrecht and Phillips decided that "this was a major national security risk" and immediately took the information to the FBI.

Something akin to confronting the Free Range Hen with eggs found in the pasture.
I suppose we will be expected to believe our own tech oligarchs, Deep State, and intelligence community had no involvement in, or knowledge of this whatsoever.

The weaponized EFBEYE on full display. Protecting the surreptitious Chinese technique to keep the Puppet Show in power and control their future plantation.
The key paragraph in the article:
"In April 2022, Engelbrecht received a call from one of the FBI agents, who informed her that the FBI’s “Washington D.C. headquarters” was now involved in the investigation.
Engelbrecht described how everything changed after this call, “There was no more goodwill, there was no more let's work together, the script had been flipped, and now we were the target,” she said. “That was a very disturbing call.”
"...that the D.C. office was now trying “to figure out how you guys broke the law to find all of this”.
[Breitbart] Wednesday, Eagle Forum of Alabama revealed the organization had received a subpoena that demanded “all information related to the non-profit’s legislative activities promoting the Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion And Protection Act (VCAP) since 2017.”
The Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion And Protection Act (VCAP) (SB184) was passed by the state’s legislature earlier this year, and it was the subject of criticism by the White House immediately after Gov. Kay Ivey (R-AL) signed it into law.
The law prohibited the prescription of transgender conversion therapies for minors.
In May, U.S. Judge Liles Burke of the Northern District of Alabama issued a preliminary injunction to stop the state from enforcing the ban as a court challenge proceeds.
However, the Biden Justice Department is now seeking details on any lobbying or advocacy by Eagle Forum of Alabama as part of that court challenge.
“At stake here is the ability of all private citizen advocates and non-profit advocacy organizations to engage in the legislative process regardless of their viewpoint,” Kristen A. Ullman, president of Eagle Forum, said in a statement. “If the DOJ can weaponize a subpoena, any American can be unduly burdened and prevented from engaging in our democratic republic form of government. Freedom of speech and freedom of association will be squelched.
“This unprecedented, massive demand by the DOJ for information unrelated to the issues before the court is a blatant attempt to intimidate and silence a non-party organization and crush its Constitutionally-protected rights to educate others, petition the government, and speak freely. This harassment must be stopped. It’s a shot across the bow of people and groups engaged in the legislative process throughout the nation. If the Department of Justice doesn’t like your viewpoint, it may target you next.”
Eagle Forum of Alabama executive director Becky Gerritson also defended the organization’s advocacy.
“After hearing from citizens in Alabama, including parents, doctors, lawyers, and guidance counselors, about their concerns for otherwise healthy children who want to transition to the opposite sex, we decided to undertake the protection of these vulnerable children and have done so publicly and ardently,” she said in a release. “Eagle Forum of Alabama operates primarily by volunteer Alabama citizens. The right to engage in these activities, free of compulsion and harassment, must be preserved.”

States should pass law that Federal Interference outside of strict constitutionally allowed areas is a capital offense, with sentences carried out a week after conviction. Include that ANY Federal judge may be tried under the same law for any attempt at interference. Why in 6 weeks the Fed payroll would drop at least 50%
[Townhall] Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) made a big show of welcoming migrants who wanted to reach the city in buses provided by the state of Texas, but new reporting revealed some of the migrants were sent to stay outside city limits.
WGN reported migrants, who illegally crossed the southern border and then released by Border Patrol, were sent to the village of Burr Ridge, which is located in Cook and DuPage Counties. On top of sending migrants to the portion of Burr Ridge that is in DuPage County, the mayor says they did not receive advanced notice. Lightfoot had criticized Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) for not better coordinating with the city on the buses' arrival.
"I am concerned neither the village administrator nor I were told about this," Burr Ridge Mayor Gary Grasso told WGN. "We want to know: Why Burr Ridge?"
Another busload of 75 people arrived to Chicago on Wednesday. A spokesperson for Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) defended moving the migrants outside of Cook County:
"The state is working with our partners at the City of Chicago and Cook County along with advocacy organizations to welcome those seeking asylum in the United States and provide them stability as they work to build a new life in Illinois. The state has a prior relationship with the hotel being used in the suburbs and their staff has done amazing work welcoming refugees and asylum seekers before, so it is interesting that local officials are choosing this specific instance to gripe to the press about this specific group of asylum seekers that consists of about 30 families. Gov. Pritzker has made it clear that Illinois is welcoming state and xenophobia has no home here."
Washington, D.C. Councilmember Brianne Nadeau (D) complained during a press conference on Thursday Abbott and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) busing people to the nation's capital has turned it into a border town.
"We can join forces, stop the shouting and lower the temperature. For without unity there is no peace, only bitterness and fury. No progress, only exhausting outrage. No nation, only a state of chaos. This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward."
That was President Biden during his Inauguration Speech in January 2021. Nice words. Hard to argue against. After all, America has always been at its best when unified. During World War II and after 9/11. Division has never served us well.
Fast forward to September 2022. President Biden is averaging around 42 percent approval, still the lowest of any first-term president in the history of polling, from Truman to Trump. Inflation, sitting at 8.5 percent (it was 1.4 percent in January 2021), is still by far the public’s number-one concern going into the midterm elections. FiveThirtyEight gives Republicans a 75 percent chance of taking back the House of Representatives. And six in 10 voters believe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan will worsen inflation, per a new CNBC poll.
So it appears the White House strategy is to avoid talking about inflation or the economy in general, or still-way-too-high gas prices at nearly $4.00 per gallon (gas was about $2.40 per gallon when Biden took office), or the violent mostly peaceful crime continually plaguing American cities, or the essentially open U.S. border or 300 Americans dying each day from opioid/fentanyl overdoses. Instead, the plan appears to be to make the midterms a referendum on Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and whatever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... voters.
"There’s no question that the Republican Party today is dominated, driven and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans! And that is a threat to this country," Biden declared in a divisive ...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled... speech in Philadelphia last week
"Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are a threat to the very soul of this country," he tweeted afterward.
Call it the rise of "Dark Brandon." Brandon, of course, infamously became a nickname for Biden after a NASCAR race last year was won by Brandon Brown at Talladega Speedway. The Alabama crowd began chanting "(Expletive) Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. S Joe's wife and daughter weren't killed by a drunk driver. He didn't graduate with three or even two degrees, wasn't in the top half of his law class, and his daddy didn't come home from a hard day's work in the mines and play football with the guys. The NAACP hasn't endorsed him every time he's run.... " during an NBC trackside interview after the race, which could clearly be heard by viewers at home.
But NBC Sports news hound Kelli Stavast, who was tasked with interviewing Brown on the track, told the audience watching at home that the crowd was really chanting "Let’s go, Brandon!"
"You can hear the chants from the crowd. Let’s go, Brandon!" she said. And an anti-Biden meme was born.
But in recent weeks, the Biden Team has embraced the Brandon nickname, and has been repurposing it as "Dark Brandon" whenever the president goes on the offensive. And that’s exactly what Biden did during his "soul of the nation" speech.
So not only was the leader who promised to unify the country attempting to do the exact opposite of that, he did so flanked by ominous red-lighted walls and with two Marines as props behind him. Whoever at the White House thought that either of these optics was a good idea should seek employment elsewhere.
The speech wasn’t as warmly embraced as the White House had anticipated, either. "Whatever you think of this speech the military is supposed to be apolitical," CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for... ’s Brianna Keilar tweeted. "Positioning Marines in uniform behind President Biden for a political speech flies in the face of that. It’s wrong when Democrats do it. It’s wrong when Republicans do it."
Caught off guard by the blowback, White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates responded to Keilar directly. "Except it’s not political. In the same way CNN isn’t political but has made the same warnings," he retorted.
And when Biden was asked by Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy about the tone and divisiveness of his speech after he accused 74 million Trump voters of being a direct threat to democracy, the president pretended he’d never said such a thing.
"You keep trying to make that case. I don’t consider any Trump supporters a threat to the country," Biden said, contradicting what he had said less than 24 hours earlier.
We’ve heard this kind rhetoric from Biden for some time: If you oppose Biden and his party on federalizing voting laws, for example, you’re on the side of George Wallace, Bull Connor and Jefferson Davis. Biden later denied having made that comparison too.

The Dorf Brandon campaign I believe goes back around 6 weeks. This was the culmination of that messaging campaign:
"Are there any MAGARs in the theater tonight? Put them up against the wall."
the president pretended he’d never said such a thing.

Newsweek:
Commentators were quick to point out that cartoon images showing Biden with glowing eyes, which have been used in multiple Dark Brandon memes, appear to have been first taken from an image that was created by a pro-China propagandist and posted to the Chinese social media site Weibo in November 2020.

Import 4.6 Million illegals and then erase rules for Green Cards that require they NOT be on the Dole. Creating new entitlement expectations for decades to come as they settle in to the cycle of multi-generational dependence of Progressive life support and vote harvesting. The added bonus of destroying traditional American culture and the attitude of assimilation vs ethnic block voting and "diversity", "equity" expectations. And all out of your children's future prosperity!
A man suffered a flat tire on a dark day outside the fences of an insane asylum. Starting to change the tire, he noticed one of the inmates watching him over the fence. As he nervously hurried to complete the tire change, he did not notice the lug nuts rolling down a sewer drain behind him. As the driver realized the lug nuts were gone, the inmate called out, "hey buddy, your lug nuts went down the sewer drain". As the driver wondered what to do, the inmate continued, "it isn't a problem, just take a single lug nut from the other three wheels and drive carefully to a station." The driver said, "that is an intelligent suggestion! What are you doing in that place?" The inmate replied, "buddy, I'm here because I'm crazy, not because I'm stupid!"
