Big Tech Memory-Holing Private Data!
Friendly reminder: We put links in articles like this for a reason! If you don't know about something, or have doubts, follow the links and find out! “A memory hole is any mechanism for the deliberate alteration or disappearance of inconvenient or embarrassing documents –Wikipedia” In George Orwell's 1984, the totalitarian government controls the flow–indeed, the very existence–of information via something called memory holes, which are tubes connected to furnaces, where paper texts are incinerated. In real life, memory holes take many forms. Always, however, memory-holing is an attempt to remove data from the public eye, and always with deference to official government narratives. YouTube deletes videos frequently, often claiming copyright infringement or breach of "community guidelines", and simply de-platforms people whose message they disagree with. YouTube is owned by Google, so it is unsurprising, then, to find that they are memory-holing other data, in other ways. The real shock to some is that they have now violated the "fourth wall", and are now deleting private data, as reported by LifeSiteNews: ““Google took down the [Google] Drive file featuring the movie [Plandemic] after the company was contacted by The Post,” according to the paper. “Health or medical content that promotes or encourages engaging in practices that may lead to serious physical or emotional harm in individuals or to a serious public health harm is prohibited on Google Docs and Drive, according to the company’s content policies.”” When you break this paragraph down, this is what you get: 1. Random citizen stores Plandemic video on their private Google Drive account. 2. Google somehow knows it is there. 3. Google accesses private account and deletes video without notifying the account owner. The article further points out that "Google has intervened in the use of its productivity tools before, having previously blocked a Google Doc about a disputed study on the drug hydroxychloroquine". The article states that Google was "contacted by The Post", and this was how they found out about it, but they could easily have discovered it in other ways. How? There are actually a few ways, but one stands out like the sorest of thumbs: this 2014 article from technical website EasyDNS, called Google’s Gmail scans, parses, analyzes and catalogs your email, explains the problem in detail. For our purposes, the title is sufficient: they "scan, parse, analyze, and catalog your email". But that's just email, right? Web expert, author, and Harvard grad, Michael Hartl, coined the phrase "technical sophistication" as a fancy way of saying one is able to figure things out, to put two and two together. Let's apply our technical sophistication to this issue and see what we come up with. Google is in the information business. Data. According to SearchEngineLand, Google’s search knows about over 130 trillion pages. Or did back in 2016. How? They index them, parse them, and categorize the data they contain. We know they scan your emails, and we know they scan webpages, but… your files? “Google spokeswoman Alex Krasnof refused to tell the Post whether Google scans Drive files for objectionable content, stating only that the company “doesn’t go into details” about how its policies are enforced.” If you can't see through this, I have a fast-tracked coronavirus vaccine I'd like to sell you. So they deleted a video that many claim was filled with falsehoods. Why should I be concerned? * Well, for starters, there's the fact that they own your Android phone, and have access to all of its contents, including your calls and text messages. Then there's the fact that they were caught on tape admitting that they censor conservative messages. They know who you talk to, and what you talk about. And they are actively choosing sides in important matters. But I have an iPhone, and I use Bing, so I don't have to worry!** Nonsense, Apple tracks your location, is notoriously Leftist and pro-homosexual, has access to your files in their iCloud service, and recently began assigning every user of their devices a "trust score" (not just iPhones, but desktops, as well), just like the notorious Black Mirror episode. Except no one knows how they calculate it, or what it is actually being used for, and you can't opt out (it's part of the Terms and Conditions you must agree to in order to install or update the operating system). Oh, and Google and Apple both know every website you visit, because they collectively own 83% of the global market for browser use. How convenient! Present circumstance have only emboldened these criminals, and it is only a matter of time before they put all of these pieces together to either: 1. Delete your private files off of your computer, or 2. Deny you internet or computer access because of what you use their devices and services for. Just a heads up. It's coming. * Because Google was created by the CIA in their ongoing efforts to gain Total Information Awareness, and people think they are just a business started by a couple of Joe Schmoes, when they are actually a government data-mining operation. ** We don't go into detail about Microsoft (owner of the Bing search engine) in this article, but it's not because they aren't evil.
Brazil Federal Police carry out search and seizure warrants at medical researchers' homes
There is a growing list of doctors and scientists who find themselves in the "wrong side" merely for doing what they have been trained to do: ask questions and do research! We already barely hear the side of truth as it is, and if we do not take a stand, we will soon be overwhelmed with "official messages" and nothing else!
Customs Officials Have Copied Americans’ Phone Data at Massive Scale + More
What could go wrong? It's not like innocent people have been put in jail for non-crimes in the past couple of years, or anything... And it's not like the government has ever pinpointed American citizens and called them "domestic terrorists" simply for doing things like supporting Ron Paul, or speaking out against perversion at school board meetings... Hunh.

British Protest 15-Minute Cities Where They Will Become Prisoners of the State
From the article: "To further seize control of people’s lives, Globalists are pushing the false idea that these “green” cities, which make services accessible to residents within 15 minutes of their homes, will “save the planet” and help all humanity. Instead, they are nothing more than a way for them to restrict, coerce, fine, punish, surveil, and limit the fundamental right of freedom of movement for residents. For example, residents are not allowed to leave your 15-minute city by car more than the allotted times a year. Otherwise, you will be fined. In addition, the government will track and control your every movement through your smartphones & facial recognition technology." You can see how the "COVID" set the stage for this level of tracking and control. Are we excited about the future yet?
UN Goals Unveiled: Peaceful Societies–Recovering from Conflict and Nurturing Peace
Do people notice hypocrisy any more? When, for instance, millionaire Bernie Sanders trots around the world in his private jet pimping Socialism and chastising the rest of us for causing climate change… does anyone bat an eye? Ditto for Al Gore and many others. What's missing is critical thinking, a skill no longer taught in government indoctrination centers. What they do teach under that name is a form of "social justice" thinking and "values clarification" that is nothing more than humanistic brainwashing. In today's article we will learn about peace, love, and respect from the UN. What could go wrong? “"Peace is necessary for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and is a specific goal in itself. This session will focus on the interface between peace, justice and strong institutions (SDG 16) and Safe, Resilient, Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11).The last decade has been marked by increasing skepticism regarding the viability and effectiveness of multilateral approaches to peacebuilding. The Peaceful Societies Thematic Session will discuss how civil society organizations are integrating objective measures to achieve an inclusive and sustainable culture of peaceful coexistence in their local activities while respecting the integrity of nation states’ sovereign rights. Attend this thematic session if you are interested in: Human rights, Gender-based violence, Human trafficking, Family valued [sic], community building and inter-cultural understanding through arts and sports, Refugees and migrants, Arms flows, Access to information, Corruption"” Buzz Buzz Buzz Once again, we must separate fact from fiction, and rhetoric from reality. In this Thematic Session description, as in all the others, fine language and emotional buzzwords are used to appeal to the non-critical thinker. But that's not us. Let's take this thing apart, shall we? Let's start with the overall goal. The UN claims to be able to do something that has never been done in the history of the earth: bring peace to the world. On a similar note, here in Idaho we have signs all along the highway, with a picture of a seatbelt, proclaiming the slogan "Towards Zero Deaths." When I first saw these, I mentioned to my wife that "zero deaths" sounds like such a noble goal, but it is completely impossible without taking away our freedoms, because there is no freedom without risk! Likewise, there can never be absolute peace in the world without brainwashing a la 1984, and/or an absolute dictatorship that has removed all freedoms. This is the "peace" promised by Communism. Real world examples include China, North Korea, the Soviet Union, Vietnam, and Cuba. You murder everyone who could theoretically pose a threat, and then keep everyone else under your boot. Hooray for peace! The Definition Of A Nation In this description, they also complain about "increasing skepticism regarding the viability and effectiveness of multilateral approaches to peacebuilding." Multilateral, according to my dictionary, is defined as something "agreed upon or participated in by three or more parties, especially the governments of different countries". To understand why this is a concern, we must understand what a country is. At its most basic, we could use the definition espoused by radio host Michael Savage, who says that a country is defined by its "borders, language, and culture." This makes sense because at some point in time a group of people claimed an area of land, ie, established borders, in order to have a distinct culture. Over time their language became distinct, as well. And so you have a country. "We will no longer be governed by you," they said to their country of origin. "We will govern ourselves, instead!" This makes sense, as well, because a group only has the right to govern themselves, not anyone else. Each country has distinct borders, language, and culture, so their laws makes sense to them, but people in other areas may not understand why things are the way they are. They want to have things a different way. That's fine. Everyone should have the right to choose their own laws and leaders. Of course, many countries have NOT chosen their laws or leaders, but have instead had these things forced upon them, and this includes most of the countries in the United Nations. The same ones that want to "multilaterally" approach "peacebuilding." Now do you see the problem? If everyone minded their own business, we would all be much happier. “"Nothing in the Constitution nor in logic grants to the President of the United States or to Congress the power to influence the political life of other countries, to “uplift” their cultures, to bolster their economies, to feed their peoples or even to defend them against their enemies. This point was made clear by the wise father of our country, George Washington: "I have always given it as my decided opinion that no nation has a right to intermeddle in the internal concerns of another; that every one had a right to form and adopt whatever government they liked best to live under them selves; and that if this country could, consistent with its engagements, maintain a strict neutrality and thereby preserve peace, it was bound to do so by motives of policy, interest, and every other consideration."" –Excerpt from United States Foreign Policy, by Ezra Taft Benson” I'm looking at you, America! A TSA/CPS Agent's Dream Job Of course, the United Nations also meddles everywhere, and that's just one point of irony. The other is that this Thematic Session is supposedly devoted to "Recovering from Conflict and Nurturing Peace" while the UN is anything but neutral when there is a conflict, and they bring anything but peace to the areas they infest! Taking another page out of 1984, the UN troops are referred to as "peacekeepers." But did you know that there is horrendous and widespread sexual abuse of women and children whenever they bring their "peace" into town? Here is an article from 2006 on the UN's own website, one from 2016 specifically mentioning "child rape" and discussing the 99 "allegations" from the year before (2015), and one from 2017 that points out that the "145 cases of [reported] sexual exploitation and abuse involving peacekeepers in 2016" came from "across all UN staff, not just peacekeepers." Well, that's comforting. This article, also from 2017, discusses many specific incidents, including "When at least 134 Sri Lankan peacekeepers were implicated in a child sex ring." This 2018 article informs us that "Few UN personnel have faced jail (the current number stands at 30), with even fewer being fined, demoted or removed from office." Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. This is apparently how the UN "nurtures peace" in areas that are "recovering from conflict." Did I mention that we are talking about THE RAPE OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN? Just wanted to throw that out there, as you ponder how seriously this is being taken by the UN. The articles linked to above are not exclusive, and this issue unfortunately did not begin in 2006. This Human Rights Watch article from 2016 is the first of these to mention that "Exploitation and abuse by UN peacekeepers and personnel has been reported since the 1990s." From the first 2017 article, above, we learn: “"The international body has also been accused of burying cases and failing to act promptly or transparently to incidents perpetrated by its troops."” Well, duh! It's the same problem with police in America, or the KGB in the Soviet Union! They see themselves as the top of the food chain! Who's going to stop them, other cops? Ha! Safeguarding Our Future We've all heard that "when the wicked rule the people mourn," (D&C 98:9, Prov. 29:2), but what should be of greater concern to us is the warning in the Book of Mormon that "ye cannot dethrone an iniquitous king save it be through much contention, and the shedding of much blood." (Mosiah 29:21) Who will you turn to when you are abused by a tyrannical world government? Where will you go? "The shedding of much blood," indeed. Oh, and in case you were wondering, "An AP investigation earlier this year found around 2,000 allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse have been registered between 2005-2017." So there's really no reason people should be concerned about UN involvement in their area, is there? Notice that this number does not include anything from the 1990's up to 2005, nor explain why. We'll leave that to your imagination. Usurpation Of Delegated Authority Because a nation's borders keep their people safe, they are one of the top concerns of that nation's government. In America, this is one of the few Constitutional powers of the federal government–to protect our shared borders. Why would a nation care about the security of another nation's borders? It has nothing to do with them, especially when "protecting borders" means sending your own men and women to die. Yet, "The United Nations Charter gives the United Nations Security Council the power and responsibility to take collective action to maintain international peace and security." (United Nations peacekeeping", Wikipedia) This is the sovereign right of a nation, remember? If the UN was not already a de facto world government, why would they be involved? And why would nations let them? Yes, our birthright has been sold, America, and unfortunately we aren't the only ones. By now you should have a pretty good idea of the utter absurdity and hypocrisy of the United Nations condescending to tell the world how it might "have peace" and "recover from conflicts." As the John Birch Society has long urged, it's time to "Get the UN out of the US and get the US out of the UN!" We have a Constitution so that we can govern ourselves. UPDATE (2019-08-21): Please listen to the Defending Utah episode above! Ben touches on many other reasons the UN is not an entity of peace!

Trusting the Experts
We live in a culture that is constantly told that they should just trust the "experts." In some parts of Idaho, this is adhered to very strongly. There are actually a great many things wrong with this attitude, particularly when it comes to medicine [1], but still it is pervasive in some parts. We want to believe that doctors never make business decisions when it comes to our health, but this is naive. We want to think that those in the medical profession are just kind, friend people who want to heal people. Granted, there are some who feel this way, but there are a great many doctors, and they run the spectrum where these things are concerned. Medical school isn't free, after all, nor are vacations. Even where good doctors are concerned, however, there are problems. One of these is, interestingly, the same problem that the public tends to have: a belief that those above them know what is right and shouldn't be questioned. In our current situation, there is a chain of information/direction that looks like this: The United Nations directs the World Health Organization, which directs the CDC, which directs state health departments, which direct regional health departments, which direct local health officials, who are responsible for implementation. If you trust the UN, this might not bother you. But if you understand that there are serious reasons to take what they say with skepticism, this chain is very disconcerting. Take, for instance, Event 201 [3]. This was an event, held in October of 2019, where leaders and representatives from around the world got together to war-game what would happen if there were a global outbreak of a new coronavirus. Months before there actually was a new global coronavirus outbreak, or so we're told. What an amazing coincidence! Yet another coincidence is that this "pandemic" has presented exactly the opportunity long ought after by groups like the World Economic Forum to implement what they refer to as "The Great Reset", which they see as an "opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world," according to Klaus Schwab, the WEF's founder. This is why you keep hearing about the "new normal." They have no intention of letting things go back to the real normal. “"By Schwab’s own admission, the world must “act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies” — in short, he says, ever [sic] industry must “be transformed… we need a ‘Great Reset’ of capitalism.”" [2]” “"As the WEF puts it of the coming technocracy that would rule our lives: “Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better.”" [2]” All of these things tie directly back to the United Nations Agenda 21/2030. Defending Idaho has reported on the goals of Agenda 21/2030, and we refer you to our website for those. In short, these are all evil goals couched in nice-sounding phraseology. We must all stop blindly following and start thinking critically! "Experts" are people, and people have agendas. "There is no class of evidence to be received with greater suspicion than that of the so-called expert." [4] I'm No Expert At this point, some might be wondering who they are to question those who claim to be experts. I will tell you who you are: you are the one who will suffer the consequences of whatever they implement! You have your own brain, and you were meant to use it. And you have access to the greatest expert of all – God – who will gladly guide you as you navigate conflicting information. Most importantly, you must listen to all sides of an argument. Contrary to popular memes, science is NEVER settled! Science is, literally, "a study of a subject," and it is ever-evolving. We look back with horror on the practices of days gone by (Opium for headaches? Cigarettes for your lungs?), but somehow fail to realize that those people were following the recommendation of their doctors and experts, too. In a hundred years, what will society think of today's best practices, if there still is a society? What will the "science" say then? I have been known to say that "science is today's best guesses waiting to be proven false." Whether you like it or not, this is historically accurate. But we like to think of ourselves as above all that. OUR science is too good for all that. We have "evolved" to a safe place, where things like peer reviews and double-blind studies protect us from fraud and quackery. I wish that were true. Researcher James Corbett has produced an excellent, well-documented, documentary, entitled "The Crisis of Science," that exposes the flaws – serious, serious flaws! – in today's methodologies, as discussed among scientists themselves, in their own literature, conveniently removed from the public eye. I highly recommend you watch it. [5] Just Listen We are being told that we shouldn't listen to the "other guys," that they're the cause of all our problems. We are being led to divide into factions, constantly at odds with one another. This is wrong, and it is patently un-American. Just as we have been seeing people and groups purged from sites and services like YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, so have these enormous organizations been controlling the free flow of information in other ways. Google, for instance, has long buried certain topics so far down into search results that no one will ever find them. Whistleblowers whose messages conflict with the prevailing narrative are quickly removed from public platforms before they can be seen. Truly, we live in Orwell's 1984, where this was known as "memory-holing." Media giant CNN admitted that some of these whistleblowers had been scrubbed from the main social media sites, but was quick to label them spreaders of "false coronavirus claims," so you wouldn't be concerned. [6] You weren't supposed to ask yourself why doctors would risk their livelihoods, not to mention their medical licenses, to spread "false claims." Or. what about The Great Barrington Declaration? [7] Have you even heard of it? You should have! But it's been either ignored or slandered by mainstream media publications, so you won't pay any attention to it. Why on earth would the public want to hear from "infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists [who] have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies"? What DO we get? Shut out of public meetings, where hospital administrators are admitted and allowed to give an air of legitimacy to mask mandates that we are being railroaded with. Are you not alarmed by that? I could go on, as there are many, many, other doctors and experts who disagree with the prevailing narrative. But I won't. I just hope that this has given you a sense of the urgency in our current situation, and that, going forward, you will not just blindly accept what any so-called "experts" say in regards to this "pandemic." There is a lot of reason to be skeptical, if not at least very cautious.

Canada Proposes Bill to Ban Suspected Intent to Commit “Hate Speech” Online
We thank God for the First Amendment, but our leaders are also working overtime to stifle free speech, and to track and categorize us accordingly. This is an end goal of the United Nations! No free thought. All information must be "official" information, truth be damned. True principles demand that people are free to be wrong! Otherwise how can we learn or grow? Everyone has been wrong at some point, even on major issues. Should we all be in jail? The globalists think so. They want a 1984 scenario, where everyone is afraid to speak anything but government-sanctioned snippets. Notice that this is targeting "suspected" "hate speech". Where else have we seen similar tactics, and how has that played out? Well, Child Protective Services comes to mind, and here in Idaho our legislators have declared that more that 80% of calls to CPS are fraudulent! Which doesn't matter, because "Won't somebody think of the children?!?" So, every claim is assumed to be true, and families are put through hell in the process. Again, that's the point. Government harassment that is intended to instill fear and drive unquestioning compliance.
