[We must never forget that Biden inherited the most secure border in our history, which he opened up to 11,000,000 illegal aliens that have poured in during the 3 years of his administration.  In the interval he has continued to declare the border โ€œsecureโ€, but now declares the border crisis to be Trumpโ€™s fault.  Talk about being the nationโ€™s mega-liar who has successfully bamboozled the intellectually challenged half of the nationโ€™s population.  gjr]

    Another set of reports on the Wuhan virus vax (remember that?)
    The failure of the COVID jab and the people who pushed it; February 5, 2024 2:42 pm Robert Zimmerman
    https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/essays-and-commentaries/the-failure-of-the-covid-jab-and-the-people-who-pushed-it/
    *** In October a study in Great Britain found that it was the vaccinated population that was dying from COVID, not those who avoided the jab.
    The Office for National Statistics recently published an update on deaths by vaccination status in England and it has shockingly revealed that the vaccinated population accounted for 95% of COVID-19 deaths in the 12 months between 1st June 2022 and 31st May 2023, and 94% of those deaths were among either the triple or quadruple vaccinated population.
    *** In a more recent paper issued in January, researchers found that the ineffectiveness of the COVID jabs meant that they ended up causing more deaths than they saved.
    The peer-reviewed study, published in the Cureus journal on Jan. 24, analyzed reports from the initial phase 3 trials of Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. These trials led to the shots being approved under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) in the United States. The study also looked into several other research and reviews of the trials. It found that the vaccines had โ€œdramatically lowerโ€ efficacy rates than the vaccine companies claimed.
    Moreover, based on โ€œconservative assumptions, the estimated harms of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines greatly outweigh the rewards: for every life saved, there were nearly 14 times more deaths caused by the modified mRNA injections.โ€
    There are other observations at the link. There was nothing about a leak from the Wuhan lab. That’s been covered up pretty well.

    Wow!!!
    Here’s something for the Trump Chumps on this blog-fishmouth, Gregory, Bessee, Scenes, Scott etc.
    Here’s a direct quote from Trump about supporting Russia if NATO nations don’t pay their bills. Unbelievable that you would support this nutcase for President but you do.
    Direct quotes from Trump
    โ€œOne of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, โ€˜Well sir, if we donโ€™t pay and weโ€™re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?โ€™ I said, โ€˜You didnโ€™t pay? Youโ€™re delinquent?โ€™ He said, โ€˜Yes, letโ€™s say that happened.โ€™ No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want,โ€ Trump said.
    โ€œYou gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills,โ€ he added.

    Paul has trouble understanding the English language. On top of that he has trouble dealing with the idea of when events happen in time.
    On top of that he is the type of simpleton who is easily led by misleading headlines.
    Task for Paul:
    Look up the word “hypothetical” in the dictionary and have an adult nearby to guide him through what the word means.
    What a maroon.

    re: Paul@9:43PM
    That’s absolutely hilarious although I can guarantee that Paul (a) didn’t watch the speech referenced and (b) gets his news from a few sites that cherry pick the good parts in a partisan fashion. That’s the nature of ‘news directors’.
    I think I agree with the general mood of the thing. If the Europeans (450M people, $20T GDP) won’t bother with any kind of self-defense against the Russians (140M people, $1.8T GDP), I don’t see what the point is of the US being involved. It’s funny what warmongers the Democrats and Green Libertarians have turned into. It’s hard to avoid ending up with a foreign policy that’s Neocon + BlackRock + Green Libertarian as their need to run the rest of the world seems limitless and there are a helluva lot of them.
    My favorite part about Trump is that the Venn Diagram of ‘people I can’t stand’ and ‘instinctive Trump haters’ appears to be nearly the same. It’s a handy way to sort people.
    Paul, I’d suggest that you sell a guitar or something and send the money for ammunition in the Ukraine. The fire needs stoking.

    I recall after being accused of being a Trump Chumpโ„ข for the umpteenth time by everyones favorite escaped mental patient, that as far as I was concerned Trumps raison d’etre was keeping Hillary Clinton out of the Oval Office. That was all that was needed. I realize now that he serves an equally important secondary function. That of completely “popping the main spring” of progressive America (Punchy by way of explanation that means driving them very publicly and likely irrevocably insane)!
