“No one, up until last February,” Viganò wrote, “would ever have thought that, in all of our cities, citizens would be arrested simply for wanting to walk down the street, to breathe, to want to keep their businesses open, to want to go to church on Sunday. Yet now it is happening all over the world … The fundamental rights of citizens and believers are being denied in the name of a health emergency that is revealing itself more and more fully as instrumental to the establishment of an inhuman, faceless tyranny.”
There’s a reason you may not have heard those words before. The usual foot soldiers for conformity in our news media did their best to suppress and discredit Viganò’s letter to the president. Yahoo News tried to tie the elderly clergyman somehow to QAnon, which to them made sense. He alleged that a global health emergency was being used by the people in power for ends that had nothing to do with the virus itself, and of course, that’s crazy talk. That’s the media position on that.
“This is our chance,” says Justin Trudeau. Not our chance to save you from a virus with a 99% survival rate. This is our chance to impose unprecedented social controls on the population in order to bypass democracy and change everything to conform with their weird academic theories that have never been tested in the real world and, by the way, don’t actually make sense.
“This pandemic has provided an opportunity for a reset.” Keep in mind, that’s not from QAnon, that is a head of state talking and he’s not alone. Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum, has written a book called “COVID-19: The Great Reset.” The book isn’t really about science or medicine. Instead, it describes, “what changes will be needed to create a more inclusive, resilient and sustainable world going forward.”
What’s telling is how different this is from the way our leaders were talking back when the pandemic began. Statewide coronavirus lockdowns in this country started about eight months ago, in mid-March. At the time, California Gov. Gavin Newsom predicted that 56 % of his state’s population — more than 25 million people — would become infected with the virus within eight weeks. Businesses would need to shut down, Newsom acknowledged. But he also promised he would all be over soon. “This is not a permanent state,” Newsom assured us. “It is a moment in time.”
That should have made us nervous. Because in the end, that moment continued indefinitely. Pretty soon Gavin Newsom was telling us who we were allowed to be around and who we were allowed to talk to.
NEWSOM, IN JULY: As always, I want to remind you, limit your mixing with people outside of your household. It’s just common sense. But the data suggests not everybody is practicing common sense.
What have we learned from the data since then? Well, as of Nov. 15, about 2.6% of the total population of California has been infected. That’s roughly 20 million fewer people than Gavin Newsom predicted to be infected by May. So in some ways, that looks like a victory. Can we declare victory? No, just the opposite.
Monday, Newsom announced that more lockdowns are underway. Right now, 41 counties in our biggest state are under the most restrictive form of lockdown. Churches, gyms, and restaurants cannot conduct any kind of indoor operations.
CHICAGO MAYOR DEFENDS APPEARING AT LARGE BIDEN CELEBRATION DAYS BEFORE ISSUING THANKSGIVING LOCKDOWN
Newsom is implementing these lockdowns on scientifc grounds, of course, but he doesn’t believe in it for himself because apparently he is exempt from the laws of epidemiology. We know this because nine days ago, the governor was caught violating his own guidelines by eating at one of the state’s most expensive restaurants with a dozen other people. By the way, he’s fine. He didn’t die from it. When you’re God, you don’t fear viruses. Lockdowns are for mortals.
You’d think getting caught would hurt Newsom. Getting caught ignoring your own rules used to be a major problem for politicians, but it’s not anymore. They are no longer humiliated by their own hypocrisy. The point of the exercise is to humiliate the rest of us by forcing us to obey transparently absurd orders.
“Everyone has to wear a Viking hat with horns every Wednesday. It’s the law! Dr. Fauci’s orders!”
By the way, people would do that. They would follow the orders and would scream at others if they didn’t. In an environment like this, dominated by completely unreasonable demands from the people on top, mediocrities like Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot thrive. This is a moment created for her and people like her. Lightfoot explained on MSNBC Friday that she has no personal obligation to follow the lockdown restrictions that you could be arrested for ignoring.
DC MAYOR DISREGARDED OWN TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS TO ATTEND BIDEN VICTORY SPEECH
STEPHANIE RUHLE: What do you say to those who are criticizing you, where less than a week ago, you went out and stood before a massive crowd who was celebrating Joe Biden’s victory, and now you’re saying your city has to shut down? How do you have one and not the other?
LIGHTFOOT: There are times when we actually do need to have the relief and come together. And I felt like that was one of those times. That crowd was gathered, whether I was there or not.
Notice the complete lack of embarrassment and shame. “There are times when the rules just don’t apply to me.”
So when specifically are those times when the rules don’t apply to the people making the rules? Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser decided that her rules did not apply to Joe Biden’s victory party in Delaware, so she went. Going to the party, she explained, was, “essential.” Muriel Bowser didn’t have to quarantine or restrict her travel in any way because it was on behalf of the Democratic Party.

“the judge rejected Newsom’s argument that Section 8627 of the Emergency Services Act gives him autocratic powers. At least 24 of his executive orders rely on that section.”
“The court rejected Newsom’s extraordinary claim that a state of emergency centralizes the state’s powers in the hands of the Governor, thus turning California into an autocracy. This is the unlawful basis on which Newsom has collapsed our system of checks and balances, issuing 58 executive orders and changing over 400 laws unilaterally”

Walt, weekends and summer training are not active duty under the law, its when you actually retire as a reserve that you get some benefits, disability notwithstanding. This law only recently allowed retired weekend warriors to be called veterans but does not extend benefits. You were active. –
During the December 2016 transition period, President Obama signed H.R. 6416, a bill that says National Guard and Reserve retirees who had zero active duty time are now eligible to be referred to as Veterans.
The bill states:
Any person who is entitled under chapter 1223 of title 10, United States Code, to retired pay for Non-regular service or, but for age, would be entitled under such chapter to retired pay for non-Regular service shall be honored as a veteran but shall not be entitled to any benefit by reason of this honor.
Although the bill does not expand any benefits, it allows men and women who served in the Guard and Reserves to describe themselves as veterans.

‘Portland’s anarchists say they support racial justice. Black activists want nothing to do with them’
(LA Times)
“The anarchists believe working within the system is futile and say the political order and capitalist economy must be torn down.
Biden, as head of a party supporting the free-market system and private property rights, is no better than Trump, more than a dozen said in interviews.
Distrusting the media, all refused to give their names. But pamphlets distributed at a recent rally outline their far-left philosophies.
“Abolish All Mayors” — the title of one booklet — advocates “the complete democratization and community control of all city bureaus and the abolition of the police.”
“Why We Break Windows” advocates an end to private property and invokes the Boston Tea Party to explain the point of “political vandalism” during revolts.
“Shop windows represent segregation,” it says. “To smash a shop window is to contest all the boundaries that cut through this society: black and white, rich and poor, included and excluded.”
In some ways, the anarchists have served the Black Lives Matter movement in Portland, creating a spectacle that drew attention to the cause of racial justice after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody.
Some of the anarchists have also been involved in antifa, the movement that clashes with far-right groups.
But the violence has also caused problems for Black Lives Matter.
In June, Black community leaders denounced an arson attack by protesters on a building that houses a police station and Black-owned businesses on Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.“

How BLM turned its success into electoral disaster
“The notion of defunding the police had been rattling around the left for a long time, but the Floyd protests took it mainstream. BLM leaders touted the idea and scolded Democrats for not getting on board (“Read the room,” one implored, “people are calling for defunding the police”). Activists painted the slogan on a street near the White House. BLM pushed municipalities to actually act on the proposal.
Whenever someone tried to take the edge off defunding the police by redefining it as simply reallocating some law-enforcement dollars, defenders piped up to say, No, we really mean it. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez balked at a proposal to cut $1 billion in police funding in New York City: “Defunding the police means defunding the police.” The New York Times ran an op-ed against incrementalist interpretations, “Yes, We Mean Literally Abolish the Police.”…….”
“After support for BLM surged last spring, positive feelings for it have been declining. A Pew Research report in September showed support for BLM dropping from 67 percent in June to 55 percent. Only 45 percent of whites expressed support for the movement.
Given that BLM elevated the dumbest, most self-destructive slogan in American politics in a very long time, and an even more atrocious policy, it’s numbers deserve to fall further. Advocates of defunding the police argued that setting out an extreme position could have a political effect even if it had no chance of enactment. They proved exactly right — just not how they expected.“

Don and Walt, speaking as a Army reservist (1965-71) I can address the question:
Generally, weekend warriors from that era are not eligible for VA medical benefits unless they spent time on active duty beyond their initial active duty for training (Basic and AIT).
In my case, 120,000 army guys were called up in response to Tet (supposedly) and to reduce draft calls leading up to the ’68 election by 40,000/mo.
I was one of them and spent nearly two years on active duty, ending at Berlin HQ in August ’69.
LikeLike
Even so, I still wasn’t eligible for VA healthcare until I retired and no longer had a regular income beyond SSI.
Today’s reservists in the volunteer military are a whole different animal, integral parts of the force which are cycled in and out as needed to relive the regulars. If you are a career reservists, you can expect an active duty stint every few years, definitely qualifying as veterans deserving of their country’s gratitude.
Hope this helps…

Earlier this summer, she sparked controversy after it was discovered that she purportedly sat on the board as vice-chair of Thousand Currents, which has poured more than $10 million into grassroots social change initiatives, including Black Lives Matter as of late.
The nonprofit, formerly known as IDEX, quickly removed the director’s page featuring Rosenberg from its website in June. It remained unclear if and to what capacity she still serves the organization. Thousand Currents did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.”
A “non profit” that supports domestic terrorism… How nice.
Yup,, it’s “Black LIES matter”.
But keep pushing a non existent “systemic racism”.. And it’s coming from the Black community.

“It should be called the Democrat Politician Protection Act,” McConnell wrote. Funny guy, that Moscow Mitch.
——-‘Pelosi rips GOP: ‘Handmaidens of special interests,’ despite Wall Street money favoring Biden 4-1‘. The Speaker of the House denied that Biden outraising Trump on Wall Street damages the credibility of Democrats seeking campaign finance reform.
Pelosi said the public shouldn’t view both parties the same when it comes to the influence of money in politics.
“The Republicans are the handmaidens of the special interest,” claimed the Speaker. “We are not, but the public doesn’t necessarily see it that way. Sometimes they paint us all with the same brush, and we have to make sure that they know who has their interest at heart. By interest, I mean, who is here to serve them. And as was said earlier, there’s a reason that the Republicans put this big dark money there. It’s the price of doing business for them.”
Pelosi said some of the “biggest dark money” on the Republican side has been spent on opposing collective bargaining and unionizing.“

Ah, the broad brush. Don’t paint us with that, paint the other guy. Wall Street went 4-1 for ole hair sniffer? I used to have a credit card from a company incorporated in Delaware. The relationship was brief.
Well, at least we can paint all the Dems with the broad brush of homebred Leninists, Antifa, the leadership of Marxist BLM hell bent on the destruction of the heterosexual spawned nuclear family, the OWS Drum Circle boys, plus a cast of millions of wacky and wacked out insane people too numerous to bother mentioning. They are background noise, the atmosphere, extras in the cast of thousands.
Man, for a movement the size of BLM, one would think that all those corporate donations pouring in would go to some kind of headquarters instead of straight into the co-founders‘ purses. Nice car you bought. Over a hundred grand I bet. I knew it! She a beauty.

FORT APACHE MINNEAPOLIS
Here are some excerpts from Holly Bailey’s [Wa Post] report:
“The sound of gunfire has become so familiar across North Minneapolis that Cathy Spann worries she has grown numb to it.
Day and night, the bullets zip through this predominantly Black neighborhood, hitting cars and homes and people. The scores of victims have included a 7-year-old boy, wounded in a drive-by shooting; a woman who took a bullet that came through her living room wall while she was watching television with her family; and a 17-year-old girl shot in the head and killed.
Spann, a longtime community activist who works for the Jordan Area Community Council, cannot recall another time when things were this bad — not even when the city was branded “Murderapolis,” during a spike in violence in the mid-1990s. The police are not as much a presence as they used to be, Spann said, noting that sometimes when neighbors call 911, officers are delayed in responding or don’t come at all.
“If you want to talk about pandemics, we’re dealing with a pandemic of violence,” Spann said on a recent afternoon, just as word came of two more nearby shootings. “We’re under siege. You wake up and go to bed in fear because you don’t know what’s going to happen next. . . . And our city has failed to protect us.””
The numbers support this assessment:

Funny, as soon as the election was over, suddenly ‘defund the police’ just doesn’t carry the same weight, , people suddenly are lining up to take Trump’s Not To Be Trusted vaccine, and Thanksgiving and Christmas are to be cancelled. First steps to ‘erased’.

Yesterday’s Quotes today
Observations: “If historians are even remotely fair in judging Trump’s response to the pandemic, he will get some credit for the rapid, unprecedented development of these vaccines (assuming they are, in fact, effective). If historians are remotely fair to Trump, the shortcomings in his response — excluding those inherent in a situation as novel as this one is — will be viewed primarily as falling in the realm of public relations.” —Paul Mirengoff
A trip down memory lane: “Fact check: Coronavirus vaccine could come this year, Trump says. Experts say he needs a ‘miracle’ to be right.” —NBC News, May 15
A blind squirrel finds a nut: “[Operation Warp Speed] is an unmitigated success and we should acknowledge that.” —CNN’s Jake Tapper
The BIG Lie: “Nobody I know who’s running for office is talking about ‘defunding the police.’ What we’re talking about is making police officers accountable.” —Senator Bernie Sanders (Exhibit A: “Defunding police means defunding police.” —AOC | Exhibit B: “We can’t go about creating a different process with the same infrastructure in place. And so dismantling it, and then looking at what funding priorities should look like as we imagine a new way forward, is what needs to happen.” —Ilhan Omar | Exhibit C: “We’re going to defund the police and refund our social services.” —Congresswoman-elect Cori Bush | Exhibit D: “Defund the police means defund the occupation of black bodies and the militarization of our communities.” —Congressman-elect Jamaal Bowman)
Dezinformatsiya: “It is alarming that a candidate came so close to winning while polling more than 5 million fewer votes than his opponent nationwide. The electoral college, whatever virtues it may have had for the Founding Fathers, is no longer tenable for American democracy.” —Washington Post editorial board
And last… “Find someone who loves you the way Barack Obama loves himself.” —Kyle Mann

Political futures: “If Republicans blow themselves up in Georgia and hand Joe Biden control of the Senate, it will be a reckless act of self-destruction that will impose a steep cost on the country for years.” —Rich Lowry
Yep: “Teachers unions are about giving your kids the least amount of education for the most amount of money.” —Frank Fleming
For the record: “Make no mistake about it, I will seek to prosecute those who try to undermine our elections to the fullest extent of the law. The integrity of our elections is paramount. Outside groups who seek to interfere with democracy in Georgia should be forewarned that the consequences will be severe. We thoroughly investigate every single allegation of voter fraud.” —Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger
Nanny governor: “It’s going to happen because it’s human behavior. Be smart. I get it. I understand it. It’s wrong.” —Andrew Cuomo on having Thanksgiving with family
Grand delusions: “I’m hoping there’s going to be no activity that really is going to make it more difficult for us to try to repair the damage that has been done over the last four years in terms of Donald Trump’s actions on Middle East policies.” —former CIA Director John Brennan (On the contrary, Trump’s Mideast policy successes are quite impressive.)
Non compos mentis: “If you say ‘socialism’ three times in a mirror, a corporate lobbyist-backed candidate grows their wings.” —Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (“Actually, if you say ‘socialism’ three times in the mirror, another Republican is elected to the House.” —Caleb Hull)
Lack of self-awareness: “It’s very hard for our democracy to function if we are operating on just completely different sets of facts.” —Barack Obama, whose Democrat Party thinks, among other things, that “male” and “female” aren’t biological “facts” and that voter fraud is a myth (unless it’s Russia)
And last… “You mean to tell me that the party that had no problem baselessly accusing Brett Kavanaugh of being a gang rapist in front of his children would be above orchestrating voter fraud to grab power from Trump?” —Charlie Kirk
