UN Goals Unveiled: Climate Change–Cities and Communities in Action
Today we will analyze the upcoming UN Conference's "Thematic Session," entitled "Climate Change–Cities and Communities in Action". While this topic can raise some "heated" debate, if you'll pardon the expression, it is apparent that this issue is more emotional than factual, like most UN-driven issues. Let's examine the official description of this session and then analyze its contents. “"As outlined in Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and other reports elaborated over the years by the scientific community, as well as public and private sector entities, climate change with its associated risks is among the defining issues of our time, the impact of which is global in scope and unprecedented in scale and is already disrupting communities and livelihoods, especially of those living in poverty. However, there is a growing recognition that affordable, scalable solutions are currently available that will enable us all to leapfrog to more green, clean, resilient economies in the long run. Cities and communities, underpinned by strong advocacy from civil society are acting on reducing emissions and on development for resiliency, with innovative strategies for carbon neutrality and resilient infrastructure; transportation and energy systems decarbonisation, zero emissions buildings; innovative financing mechanisms and behaviour change among consumers, producers and policymakers. With the UN Secretary-General’s Climate Action Summit 2019 taking place in September 2019, this session will be an opportunity to boost ambition and accelerate action to implement the Paris Agreement, with a focus on local action and the role of youth."” We begin with the frightening tale of how "the impact of [climate change] is global in scope and unprecedented in scale and is already disrupting communities and livelihoods". Oh, the terror! Of course, since it is "global" in scale, the only solution is global governance. A historical fact that is not taught in government indoctrination centers (ie, public schools) is that the United Nations started out as the League of Nations, which presented itself as the solution to worldwide wars immediately after World War I, which it was responsible for creating. (Remember the Hegelian Dialectic? "Problem-Reaction-Solution" You cause the problem and then offer yourself as the solution.) They believed that if they caused a situation horrific enough, people would clamor to give up their freedom in order for the League of Nations to save them. After all, we can't have a "world war" anymore if there is a "world government," can we? When this plan failed, they started World War II and presented themselves again as the solution, now rebranded as the United Nations. While they haven't ever "officially" been declared the world's government, they do, in fact, act like it, and even the United States government bows to their authority. What's important to comprehend, however, is their primary methodology: scare tactics, whether real or imagined. For decades, they have tried one thing after another–overpopulation, a new ice age, imaginary holes in the sky, global warming, and now the ambiguous "climate change"–never actually able to get people whipped up into enough of a frenzy that they would finally give up their liberties. Until now. The opening statement also assumes the high position of carrying the authority of the IPCC and other experts and, of course, years worth of reports. You can just see them piling up all over the offices at the UN. No wonder they're in such a hurry! This, ladies and gentlemen, is a logical fallacy known as "appeal to authority." What makes this sort of argument particularly egregious is that it is most effective when used against the young, precisely where the "climate change" doctrine is preached. Those of us who hold our doubts about so-called "human-induced climate change" are old enough to think critically about the matter, and expect the facts to bear out. Children, on the other hand, are taught from birth that they should respect authority figures and, particularly in public school, never to question the "experts." (If you don't already understand that this is by design, I encourage you to stop reading this article and immediately download a free copy of "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" by Charlot Iserbyt!) If you get nonsense into their heads early enough, they will never question it. Especially if you can get immoral "experts" to lie, fudge numbers, and otherwise manipulate data for political purposes. Of course, it is also necessary to demonize and vilify those who disagree, even if they are NASA scientists and other actual climate scientists, so you can pretend that there is an "overwhelming consensus." See also here and here. For a former climate scientist's discussion on the effect of "climate catastrophe" on children, I recommend "Child prophets and proselytizers of climate catastrophe" by Judith Curry. Also note that there is never substantive media coverage of those scientists who oppose the agenda, even when they are among the IPCC itself: “"But two members of the committee, Peter Lilley (Conservative) and Graham Stringer (Labour), disagreed with the other nine. They accused their fellow MPs of not holding the IPCC critically to account. “As scientists by training, we do not dispute the science of the greenhouse effect – nor did any of our witnesses,” they said in a statement. “However, there remain great uncertainties about how much warming a given increase in greenhouse gases will cause, how much damage any temperature increase will cause and the best balance between adaptation to versus prevention of global warming.” The two MPs say that the underlying technical report of the IPCC acknowledges many uncertainties, but these have been omitted from the critical Summary for Policymakers, presented to politicians." – Politicizing the IPCC report, by Judith Curry.” Next in the description you will notice that we must "leapfrog to more green, clean, resilient economies." If you remember the game of leapfrog, you will recall that each player must jump over the one in front of them. That is the UN's demand, as well. There is never a request for gradual change; it is always something that must be forced on everyone immediately. This is followed by a call for "carbon neutrality," a ridiculous phrase if there ever was one. I point you to the essay, "Carbon is not the enemy", by the journal Nature, as well as Dr. Judith Curry's discussion of this and other essays on the topic. We could go into much more discussion of this brief description, but the facts should be clear already: "climate change" is unscientific nonsense that is being force-fed to our children in order to be used by the United Nations as an excuse to take control of every facet of our lives. See if you can identify the real agendas behind the buzzwords for this "thematic session": “"Join us for this Thematic Session if you care for matters such as: Low carbon pathways and per capita footprint; Transport and mobility transformation, Renewable energy, Fiscal incentives for green tech, Coastal communities, Climate-smart food production, Land use, land-change and forestry"” Among the list of speakers for this session are Jackie Biskupski, the lesbian Mayor of Salt Lake City, Selina Neirok Leem, a Youth Delegate from The Republic of the Marshall Islands, and Olumide Idowu, Co-Founder of a non-profit known as Climate Wednesday. We encourage you to visit the Climate Wednesday website to see if you can identify the calls for global government intervention. We leave you with this thought, for your consideration: “"Satan will take control of the world by claiming ownership of her resources." –Professor Hugh Nibley” And the United Nations will claim ownership by virtue of "saving the planet."
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!
Lies, Big Lies, and COVID-19
Even though we are now several months into this whole Coronavirus/COVID-19 experience, it is still difficult to know what the truth is. About the virus itself, the response to the virus, future treatment options. While some things are still up in the air, there are several things we can be certain about, and they are discussed below. These are articles you probably have not seen before, and much of the information will be new to you. Please read them. They come from many different places, from mainstream news sources to the blogs of scientists. The main points are these, in no particular order: 1. The various responses to the Coronavirus all serve the agenda of the United Nations, of which the World Health organization (WHO) is a part. 2. These responses all serve to remove our freedoms and increase the surveillance state. 3. The testing and classification of who "has" COVID-19 is an unscientific farce. We have arbitrarily chosen to list these articles in chronological order. Each article is accompanied by our commentary, usually with a relevant quote from the article itself. We hope that the following will help you understand why so many people are a) refusing to wear a mask, and b) concerned about where this is all leading! Smartphone data reveal which Americans are social distancing (and not) March 24, 2020 https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/03/24/social-distancing-maps-cellphone-location/ “If you have a smartphone, you’re probably contributing to a massive coronavirus surveillance system.” Interestingly, the Washington Post pointed out from the very beginning how this incident was immediately being used to thrust us all into the deep surveillance state. This was months before Apple and Google secretly installed contact tracing apps on our smartphones. Oh wait, it was just a "framework" for said apps to work? That's much better. 'Heartbreaking': Moms could be separated from their newborns under coronavirus guidelines March 26, 2020 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2020/03/26/pregnant-women-covid-19-could-separated-babies-birth/2907751001/ People said this would never happen. Guess what? It did. More than once. Here are some screenshots we received from People's Rights on June 10th: [1-People's Rights Text 01.jpg] The recipients responded immediately, and this follow-up text was sent about 3 hours later: [2-People's Rights Text 02.jpg] After about 5 hours total, the situation came to a positive conclusion: [3-People's Rights Text 03.jpg] Those parents were lucky enough to have a connection to the People's Rights group. Others are at least being threatened. The following was posted on Facebook within the past week: [4-St Luke's FB Msg.jpg] While the first story, with the text messages, above, had to do with a hospital in Washington State, this is in reference to St. Luke's Hospital, here in Boise, Idaho. COVID-19 Phone Location Tracking: Yes, It’s Happening Now—Here’s What You Should Know March 27, 2020 https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2020/03/27/covid-19-phone-location-tracking-its-moving-fast-this-is-whats-happening-now/ “ [T]here was an acknowledgement of this darker data mining in comments made by Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu on march 14. “All means will be used to fight the spread of the coronavirus,” he said, before referencing the use of the country’s counter-terror tech. “that until today I have refrained from using among the civilian population.”” Counter-terror technology will be used against the public… to fight coronavirus? That doesn't sound dystopian in any way, whatsoever, does it? PLEASE NOTE: We consider the following article to be the most important article on this page! If you do not read anything else, read this! Was the COVID-19 Test Meant to Detect a Virus? April 8, 2020 https://uncoverdc.com/2020/04/07/was-the-covid-19-test-meant-to-detect-a-virus/ We include here a collection of especially poignant statements from this article, but sincerely urge you to read it in its entirety! We apologize in advance for some of the language. ““What do we mean when we say a person “tests positive” for Covid-19? We don’t actually mean they have been found to “have” it. We’ve been hijacked by our technologies, but left illiterate about what they actually mean. In this case, I am in the rare position of having known, spent time with, and interviewed the inventor of the method used in the presently available Covid-19 tests, which is called PCR, (Polymerase Chain Reaction.)”” Note that PCR is the primary means of testing for coronavirus in use today. ““The number of “cases” is often a very big number, back-lit in red. Today for example, the number of “total cases,” in the US, according to Worldometer, is 309,728. The total death figure is 8,441. “Active cases,” is 286,546, of which 8,206 are “Serious, Critical.” The number of “new deaths” is 1,037, and the number of “total recovered” is 14,741. I’m not clear what an “active” case is. Does that mean fully symptomatic? Partially symptomatic? If the latter, it surely encompasses influenza/pneumonia, which has magically, as many have observed, dropped off a cliff for 2020.”” We often forget that definitions matter! Everyone keeps talking about "cases," and "spikes," without ever defining what they mean. In this situation, even the subtle nuances have vast consequences! ““Austrian MD Christian Fiala [wrote:] “during the first weeks most tests were done on sick people. Therefore, the percentage of positive tests was relatively high. But there are not so many sick people and with the general roll out of tests, the vast majority of those tested will be healthy. Consequently, the percentage of positive tests will be low, and most will be false positive. In other words, it is impossible to continue the increase of positive test results.”” Catch that? You probably need to read it again. “““You have to have a whopping amount of any organism to cause symptoms. Huge amounts of it,” Dr. David Rasnick, bio-chemist, protease developer, and former founder of an EM lab called Viral Forensics told me. “You don’t start with testing; you start with listening to the lungs. I’m skeptical that a PRC test is ever true. It’s a great scientific research tool. It’s a horrible tool for clinical medicine. 30% of your infected cells have been killed before you show symptoms. By the time you show symptoms…the dead cells are generating the symptoms.”” "I’m skeptical that a PRC test is ever true." Yes, he actually said that, and yes, that is, as we said earlier, the primary test being used for coronavirus today! “I asked Dr. Rasnick what advice he has for people who want to be tested for COVID-19. “Don’t do it, I say, when people ask me,” he replies. “No healthy person should be tested. It means nothing but it can destroy your life, make you absolutely miserable.”” To be clear, the PRC test was not meant to be used for its current task. Its results are extremely unreliable for this purpose. “… “Every time somebody takes a swab, a tissue sample of their DNA, it goes into a government database. It’s to track us,” says David Rasnick. “They’re not just looking for the virus. Please put that in your article.””” We had privately surmised that this might be the case, so we felt it important to include a scientist's comments on the matter. ““Yes, you read that right. Labs can manipulate how many 'cases’ of Covid-19 their country has.”” You'll have to read the article for the technical explanation of how this works, but it is apparently quite simple. “““There was a famous Chinese paper that estimated that if you’re testing asymptomatic people, up to 80% of positives could be false positive. That was kind of shocking, so shocking that PubMed had to withdraw the abstract even though the Chinese paper appears to still be published and available. I actually have a translation with a friend. I translated it into English and it’s a really, standard calculation of what they call positive predictive value. The abstract basically said that in asymptomatic populations, the chance of a positive coronavirus test being a true positive is only about 20%. 80% will be false positive.” “Doesn’t that mean the test means nothing?” I asked. “The Chinese analysis was a mathematical analysis, a standard, the standard analysis that’s been done a million times before. There’s no reason to withdraw the paper for any reason. There’s nothing dramatic about the paper. It’s a really boring analysis. It’s just that they did the standard analysis and said, in some populations, like they estimated 1% of people are actually infected in the population. You could have 80% false positive. Uh, they couldn’t do a real analysis of false positives in terms of determining whether a test is correct or not because that requires a gold standard and the only gold standard is purification of the virus. So, we get back to the fact that the virus is not being purified. If you could purify the virus, then you could take a hundred people who tested positive and you could search for the virus in them. And if you found the virus in 50 out of a hundred and not in the other 50, you could say that the test is only accurate 50% of the time. But we have no way to do that because we haven’t yet purified the virus. And I don’t think we ever will.””” "[W]e haven’t yet purified the virus." According to the article, this means that no one has actually isolated it yet, to pinpoint what it is exactly, and what gives it its own specific identity. Yep. ““Crowe described a case in the literature of a woman who had been in contact with a suspect case of Corona (in Wuhan) they believed was the index case. “She was important to the supposed chain of infection because of this. They tested her 18 times, different parts of the body, like nose, throat—different PCR tests. 18 different tests. And she tested negative every time. And then they—because of her epidemiological connection with the other cases, they said: “We consider her infected. So, they had 18 negative tests and they said she was infected.” “Now why was she important? Well there was only one other person who could have theoretically transmitted the virus if the original patient, outside the family was who they thought it was. But secondly, she had the same exact symptoms as everybody else. Right? So, four people in his family came down with fever and cough and headaches, fatigue and all these kinds of big symptoms. So, if she could get those symptoms without the virus, then you, you’ve got to say, well, why couldn’t everybody else’s symptoms be explained by whatever she had? I mean, maybe they, they ate some bad seafood or something and so they all got sick, but it had nothing to do with the coronavirus.”” So, it goes something like this: "Um, boss? 18 tests and no dice. What do we do?" "Well, without her the whole thing falls apart." "So…" "She's positive, of course! Lock her up!" ““Another interesting thing is that they did a lot of tests. The first person in the list of people tested, he was positive on three out of 11 tests. So again, they took nose and throat samples and you know, different methods and all this kind of stuff. And they got 11 separate tests and only three were positive. And of course, all you need to be considered infected is one positive test. They could test you 20 times and if you test positive once, then you’re infected. So, a positive test is meaningful. A negative test. It’s like, eh. Not so much.”” What kind of test comes back positive 3 out of 11 times? And what kind of doctor/scientists relies on such sketchy tests?!? US: Hospitals Get Paid $13K to List Patients as COVID-19 and $39K to Put Them on a Ventilator April 9, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/04/us-hospitals-get-paid-13k-to-list-patients-as-covid-19-and-39k-to-put-them-on-a-ventilator “Republican state senator Scott Jensen, who is also a medical doctor, says the AMA is encouraging doctors to over-count coronavirus deaths. He revealed that “Medicare is determining that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you get $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator you get $39,000, three times as much.” Several days ago, he told local media he received a directive from the Minnesota Department of Health to list COVID-19 as the cause of death on death certificates even if patients were never tested for it. –G. Edward Griffin” This one is well-known by now, but we think it is entirely undervalued! Hospitals are businesses! This is a major conflict of interests! James Corbett also mentioned recently that putting someone on a ventilator is a serious medical intervention, and that, on a regular day, something on the order of 40% of people put on them die! But, oh, that was coronavirus. Governors of 10 States Will Require ‘Contact Tracing’ to Reopen April 15, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/governors-of-10-states-will-require-contact-tracing-to-reopen If you look at the date, you will notice that this was already the language back when we were roughly a month into this whole debacle! It's almost as if it was previously decided. Dr. Ngozi Ezike | How COVID Deaths are Classified April 27, 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw9Ci2PZKZg&feature=youtu.be “Everyone who is listed as a COVID death, doesn’t mean that was the cause of death, but that they had COVID at the time of death.” This is another one of those things most people (should) know about by now, but again is super important, as it means that the numbers being reported as "COVID deaths" are really, really not that. This also represents another conflict of interests, as there is big money for hospitals for reporting COVID deaths (this is discussed below). Gov. Little plans to distribute $300 million in cash grants to small businesses as state enters Stage 1 of reopening April 30, 2020 https://gov.idaho.gov/pressrelease/gov-little-plans-to-distribute-300-million-in-cash-grants-to-small-businesses-as-state-enters-stage-1-of-reopening/ Our "conservative" governor, here in Idaho, made sure to declare us to be in a state of "extreme emergency" right from the start, when we had exactly zero deaths, and only a small number of "cases". This assured him approximately $1.3 BILLION in federal funds. Declare non-existent pandemic. Check. Get loads of "free money." Check. Hooray for "redistributing the wealth!" New York Funeral Directors Say COVID-19 Deaths are Greatly Exaggerated April 30, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/new-york-funeral-directors-say-covid-19-deaths-are-greatly-exaggerated/ “James O’Keefe of Project Veritas spoke to several funeral directors in New York who say the number of reported COVID-19 death is greatly exaggerated and that no one is testing. Funeral director Michael Lanza said that it was his opinion that NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio is looking for federal funding and, the more COVID death certificate they can create, the more federal funds they receive.” -G. Edward Griffin” It is more than appropriate that this article follows the one above. The Farce and Diabolical Agenda of A “Universal Lockdown” May 1, 2020 https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-cruelty-universal-lockdown/5710798 “On January 30, WHO declared COVID-19 a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). At that time, there were only 150 known COVID-19 cases outside of China. No reason whatsoever to declare a pandemic.” Golly gee, it's almost like this was just an excuse for a planned incident…! Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Suggests People Who Promote Gatherings On Social Media Will Face Legal Action May 3, 2020 https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-suggests-people-who-promote-gatherings-on-social-media-will-face-legal-action “So, that means if you host a party, if you promote a party, if you go to a party, we’re not playing games, we mean business and we are going to shut this down one way or the other,” Lightfoot continued. “The time for educating people into compliance is over, don’t be stupid don’t come out, don’t advertise on social media, we’re watching you and we are going to take decisive action.”” This woman is an utter fool, as demonstrated by her recently recorded comments about wanting to hire city employees who pledge allegiance to the New World Order, but note the theme here: Stop thinking for yourselves! Big Brother knows what's best for you! Not only surveillance state, but promoting the police state, as well. * Fact-checking sites claim that the mayor's comments were somehow altered or taken out of context. We think the linked video makes it pretty clear that this is untrue. Tanzania suspends laboratory head after president questions coronavirus tests May 4, 2020 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-tanzania/tanzania-suspends-laboratory-head-after-president-questions-coronavirus-tests-idUSKBN22G295 “Tanzania has suspended the head of its national health laboratory in charge of testing for the coronavirus and ordered an investigation, a day after President John Magufuli questioned the tests’ accuracy. Magufuli said on Sunday the imported test kits were faulty as they had returned positive results on a goat and a pawpaw — among several non-human samples submitted for testing, with technicians left deliberately unaware of their origins.” Oopsies. Well, that doesn't inspire trust in those tests, now, does it? Fever-detecting Drones and Other Intrusive Practices Grow Under COVID-19 May 4, 2020 https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/item/35634-fever-detecting-drones-and-other-intrusive-practices-grow-under-covid-19 “Fever-reading drones, thermal cameras, and other coronavirus policies are part of “a looming wave of intrusive technology and constitutionally questionable measures pushed by governments — from local to state to federal — under the mission of protecting a fearful community,”” Notice how fear-mongering plays into this. If they can keep you afraid, you won't fight them when they take away your freedoms. Whistleblower: CBS News Staged Fake COVID-19 Testing Line In Michigan May 6, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/whistleblower-cbs-news-staged-fake-covid-19-testing-line-in-michigan “An insider came forward to Project Veritas with hidden camera recordings revealing how CBS News organized a fake coronavirus testing line at the Cherry Health facility in Grand Rapids, and used “fake patients” recruited from the medical staff to make the CBS news report look authentic. CBS denied staging the event and removed the Cherry Health portion from the piece.” -G. Edward Griffin” This was back when all the talk was still about "flattening the curve" (ie, keeping the hospitals from being overwhelmed with sick and dying), and all the mainstream media outlets were talking about huge lines for testing. All the while, emergency tents were being taken down because they never saw a single person. ’60 Minutes’ Exposes 1976 Swine Flu Hoax & Mass Vaccine Injuries That Followed May 7, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/60-minutes-exposes-1976-swine-flu-hoax-mass-vaccine-injuries-that-followed/ “In 1976, the US government declared that everyone should take a vaccine to stop a national pandemic from the Swine flu. At that time, the US had a population of 218-million people, and 46-million took the vaccine. Four-thousand were injured by the vaccine and filed lawsuits for-$3.5 billion. Most of the claims were for neurological damage and death. According to 60 Minutes, the vaccine was never even tested, although the media propaganda proclaimed that it was safe and effective – and necessary to prevent the spread of a pandemic that never was.” -G. Edward Griffin” Sound familiar? We wonder why so many people are publicly declaring their opposition to this exact same scenario? It's almost like they don't want to repeat history, or something.

For a "pandemic" that still does not exist. CDC acknowledges mixing up coronavirus testing data May 21, 2020 https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/499085-cdc-acknowledges-mixing-up-coronavirus-testing-data What? The "professionals" at the CDC mixed up some unrelated and completely different data, and reported it as one number? That's hard to believe! (Note: We don't.) Also, other professionals also find it hard to believe, as evidenced by the quotes in the next article: ‘How Could the CDC Make That Mistake?’ May 21, 2020 https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/05/cdc-and-states-are-misreporting-covid-19-test-data-pennsylvania-georgia-texas/611935/ “The government’s disease-fighting agency is conflating viral and antibody tests, compromising a few crucial metrics that governors depend on to reopen their economies.” Remember that article with a ton of quotes, above? The one we said was super-important? Yeah, so that PRC test that was declared by its creator as unfit for medical diagnosis is the same one "that governors depend on to reopen their economies". That shouldn't concern you at all, though. Doctor Says COVID-19 Death Statistics are Criminally Fraudulent May 26, 2020 https://redpilluniversity.org/2020/05/27/doctor-says-covid-19-death-statistics-are-criminally-fraudulent/ “Dr. Pamela Popper, teacher and consultant in the field of nutrition-based medicine, reviews the COVID-19 death statistics and shows they are deliberately falsified to make the numbers larger than they really are.” "Deliberately." Before face masks, Americans went to war against seat belts May 26, 2020 https://www.businessinsider.com/when-americans-went-to-war-against-seat-belts-2020-5 This crappy article correctly identifies this as yet another step in the war of coercion versus liberty, and basically claims that since we allowed the federal government to take away our freedom previously, we should not have a problem with it now. Which, itself, is actually the problem. Oregon uses coronavirus data to make decisions about reopening. It refuses to release that data. June 3, 2020 https://www.oregonlive.com/coronavirus/2020/06/oregon-uses-coronavirus-data-to-make-decisions-about-reopening-it-refuses-to-release-that-data.html This is just like how NIST has still never released their data for calculating the collapse of WTC7, or Pelosi saying we could find out what was in the Obamacare bill after it had passed. Frankly, we don't trust anyone, especially not government. US company rolls out ‘health pass’ app to block ‘unhealthy’ users from airports, workplace June 4, 2020 https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/us-company-rolls-out-health-pass-app-to-block-unhealthy-users-from-airports-workplace “The 'health pass' service is being marketed for businesses to scan arriving employees at a workplace, giving them a passing or failing COVID-19 grade, which determines whether they can enter.” With tests that arbitrarily deem you positive or negative for coronavirus, now we have businesses and other locations who will use that to determine whether or not you have access to, say, your job. Choose not to comply with ridiculous mandates or policies because you now know how stupid this whole thing is? Too bad. You will be treated like a criminal.

Whew! That was a close one! If true, this would have meant an end to everything the UN has been able to convince people to implement so far. Think of all the Agenda 21/2030 goals they’ve suddenly been able to force on us that would no longer make any sense!

People's Rights got involved in the other case, which kept it from ending up on the news. Here, the individual's attorney is bringing it to light, although they are unable to provide details. Oregon health officials ‘have not seen any evidence’ of coronavirus spread at protests June 18, 2020 https://www.oregonlive.com/coronavirus/2020/06/oregon-health-officials-have-not-seen-any-evidence-of-coronavirus-spread-at-protests.html “[A]fter 21 days of statewide protests… some of them drawing thousands of participants, health officials know of only a handful of coronavirus patients who said they attended one.” For many people, this was when the silliness started to set in.

Our Endless State of "Emergency" and De Facto Dictatorship June 25, 2020 https://mises.org/power-market/our-endless-state-emergency-and-de-facto-dictatorship “But even this highly moderate view of Hayek's would be an immense improvement from the current status quo, which is one in which governors can appoint themselves de facto dictators for an open-ended amount of time, and in which the only way of ending the one-man rule is for the legislature to take extraordinary measures.” This accurately describes what has happened here in Idaho.

The Recent Spikes in COVID-19 Cases Represents a Patently Fake Increase July 7, 2020 http://stateofthenation.co/?p=19396 “New definitions for designating Covid-19 cases have been distributed by the Department of State Health Services in Texas… In the new case definition contact tracing is included to report other people who were in contact with the one person who physically tested positive.” So, in Texas, "cases" now include anyone they can trace to a person who has tested positive, Whether or not they have been tested themselves, and whether or not they are sick. Makes sense… OPERATION COVID-19 is pushing Western Civilization into the Third World July 7, 2020 http://stateofthenation.co/?p=19415 Large and powerful organizations like the World Economic Forum are currently planning to use this “pandemic” as a way to push something called “The Great Reset,” about which they say: “”…the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions. Every country, from the United States to China, must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed. In short, we need a “Great Reset” of capitalism.”” This is another of the most important things we hope you will take away from this article. Globalists want to use it–and are using it!–to destroy everything we hold dear. My investigation of COVID-19 July 7, 2020 https://blog.nomorefakenews.com/2020/07/07/my-investigation-of-covid-19/ “Drug companies make money on the vaccine and the drugs used to treat COVID-19 patients. State governments receive federal money to “fight the virus.” Researchers win promotions. Public health agencies obtain more funding, and more power. Financiers buy up devalued properties at bargain prices. At the top of the ladder, key plotters contrive selling the story of a new killer virus, because they intend to use it to lock down the planet. Why? Because they want to torpedo economies and move in on the wreckage and build a new economic, social, and political world order.” Jon Rappaport is a good journalist, but this is the most important quote from this article, and it belongs right here, beneath the article above. Should We Trust The Covid Tests? Jul7 8, 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hac3ibzFf2E Many people do not know that former presidential candidate, Senator Ron Paul, is also a doctor. They discuss, among other things, the fact that a professional baseball player has received two positive and two negative test results within a period of 10 days. “[T]wo Texas counties are threatening felony charges against those with positive tests who do not stay home.” Does this make sense when “It’s No Longer a Felony to Knowingly Infect Someone with HIV-AIDS in California“? Well, it makes about as much sense as letting actual criminals out of jail because coronavirus, just to turn around and put people in jail because they violated lockdown orders by going to church. Politics Influences the Science of COVID-19 July 8, 2020 https://joshmitteldorf.scienceblog.com/2020/07/08/politics-influences-the-science-of-covid-19/ “I’m writing here about two issues: (1) Numbers reported by CDC have been gamed to make it appear that America is in the second wave of a pandemic. Instead of reporting COVID deaths, they began reported COVID cases. Then they conflated recovered individuals (who test positive for antibodies) with current cases (who test positive for the active virus). No wonder numbers are rising! (2) A new report featured prominently in Nature purports to show that lockdowns have stemmed the spread of the virus and have saved lives. The article is by the same team whose flawed models produced apocalyptic predictions last March that justified lockdowns in Europe and the US.” Another good article that deserves a full read-through. 3 States Account for 42 Percent of All COVID-19 Deaths in America.

Inflation & Agenda 2030 – What’s Really Going On?
Have you been hearing about the record profits being reported by many companies right now? As we are all being told that there are "shortages", and with prices on the rise all around us, a huge swath of them are just price-gouging, kicking us while we're down. Our recommendation: take note of who is doing this, and then NEVER GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY AGAIN!
Swiss Citizens Who Overheat Their Homes This Winter Could Face 3 Years In Jail
Once again, the fake "climate crisis" is being used to control the everyday life of citizens. This has been the plan for the "smart grid" all along. They have been tracking how much "energy" you use, so they can use it to control you, and to blame normal people for the "crisis".
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.

Lies, Big Lies, and COVID-19
Even though we are now several months into this whole Coronavirus/COVID-19 experience, it is still difficult to know what the truth is. About the virus itself, the response to the virus, future treatment options. While some things are still up in the air, there are several things we can be certain about, and they are discussed below. These are articles you probably have not seen before, and much of the information will be new to you. Please read them. They come from many different places, from mainstream news sources to the blogs of scientists. The main points are these, in no particular order: 1. The various responses to the Coronavirus all serve the agenda of the United Nations, of which the World Health organization (WHO) is a part. 2. These responses all serve to remove our freedoms and increase the surveillance state. 3. The testing and classification of who "has" COVID-19 is an unscientific farce. We have arbitrarily chosen to list these articles in chronological order. Each article is accompanied by our commentary, usually with a relevant quote from the article itself. We hope that the following will help you understand why so many people are a) refusing to wear a mask, and b) concerned about where this is all leading! Smartphone data reveal which Americans are social distancing (and not) March 24, 2020 https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/03/24/social-distancing-maps-cellphone-location/ “If you have a smartphone, you’re probably contributing to a massive coronavirus surveillance system.” Interestingly, the Washington Post pointed out from the very beginning how this incident was immediately being used to thrust us all into the deep surveillance state. This was months before Apple and Google secretly installed contact tracing apps on our smartphones. Oh wait, it was just a "framework" for said apps to work? That's much better. 'Heartbreaking': Moms could be separated from their newborns under coronavirus guidelines March 26, 2020 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2020/03/26/pregnant-women-covid-19-could-separated-babies-birth/2907751001/ People said this would never happen.

Others are at least being threatened. The following was posted on Facebook within the past week: [4-St Luke's FB Msg.jpg] While the first story, with the text messages, above, had to do with a hospital in Washington State, this is in reference to St. Luke's Hospital, here in Boise, Idaho. COVID-19 Phone Location Tracking: Yes, It’s Happening Now—Here’s What You Should Know March 27, 2020 https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2020/03/27/covid-19-phone-location-tracking-its-moving-fast-this-is-whats-happening-now/ “ [T]here was an acknowledgement of this darker data mining in comments made by Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu on march 14. “All means will be used to fight the spread of the coronavirus,” he said, before referencing the use of the country’s counter-terror tech. “that until today I have refrained from using among the civilian population.”” Counter-terror technology will be used against the public… to fight coronavirus? That doesn't sound dystopian in any way, whatsoever, does it? PLEASE NOTE: We consider the following article to be the most important article on this page! If you do not read anything else, read this! Was the COVID-19 Test Meant to Detect a Virus? April 8, 2020 https://uncoverdc.com/2020/04/07/was-the-covid-19-test-meant-to-detect-a-virus/ We include here a collection of especially poignant statements from this article, but sincerely urge you to read it in its entirety! We apologize in advance for some of the language. ““What do we mean when we say a person “tests positive” for Covid-19? We don’t actually mean they have been found to “have” it. We’ve been hijacked by our technologies, but left illiterate about what they actually mean. In this case, I am in the rare position of having known, spent time with, and interviewed the inventor of the method used in the presently available Covid-19 tests, which is called PCR, (Polymerase Chain Reaction.)”” Note that PCR is the primary means of testing for coronavirus in use today. ““The number of “cases” is often a very big number, back-lit in red. Today for example, the number of “total cases,” in the US, according to Worldometer, is 309,728. The total death figure is 8,441. “Active cases,” is 286,546, of which 8,206 are “Serious, Critical.” The number of “new deaths” is 1,037, and the number of “total recovered” is 14,741. I’m not clear what an “active” case is. Does that mean fully symptomatic? Partially symptomatic? If the latter, it surely encompasses influenza/pneumonia, which has magically, as many have observed, dropped off a cliff for 2020.”” We often forget that definitions matter! Everyone keeps talking about "cases," and "spikes," without ever defining what they mean. In this situation, even the subtle nuances have vast consequences! ““Austrian MD Christian Fiala [wrote:] “during the first weeks most tests were done on sick people. Therefore, the percentage of positive tests was relatively high. But there are not so many sick people and with the general roll out of tests, the vast majority of those tested will be healthy. Consequently, the percentage of positive tests will be low, and most will be false positive. In other words, it is impossible to continue the increase of positive test results.”” Catch that? You probably need to read it again. “““You have to have a whopping amount of any organism to cause symptoms. Huge amounts of it,” Dr. David Rasnick, bio-chemist, protease developer, and former founder of an EM lab called Viral Forensics told me. “You don’t start with testing; you start with listening to the lungs. I’m skeptical that a PRC test is ever true. It’s a great scientific research tool. It’s a horrible tool for clinical medicine. 30% of your infected cells have been killed before you show symptoms. By the time you show symptoms…the dead cells are generating the symptoms.”” "I’m skeptical that a PRC test is ever true." Yes, he actually said that, and yes, that is, as we said earlier, the primary test being used for coronavirus today! “I asked Dr. Rasnick what advice he has for people who want to be tested for COVID-19. “Don’t do it, I say, when people ask me,” he replies. “No healthy person should be tested. It means nothing but it can destroy your life, make you absolutely miserable.”” To be clear, the PRC test was not meant to be used for its current task. Its results are extremely unreliable for this purpose. “… “Every time somebody takes a swab, a tissue sample of their DNA, it goes into a government database. It’s to track us,” says David Rasnick. “They’re not just looking for the virus. Please put that in your article.””” We had privately surmised that this might be the case, so we felt it important to include a scientist's comments on the matter. ““Yes, you read that right. Labs can manipulate how many 'cases’ of Covid-19 their country has.”” You'll have to read the article for the technical explanation of how this works, but it is apparently quite simple. “““There was a famous Chinese paper that estimated that if you’re testing asymptomatic people, up to 80% of positives could be false positive. That was kind of shocking, so shocking that PubMed had to withdraw the abstract even though the Chinese paper appears to still be published and available. I actually have a translation with a friend. I translated it into English and it’s a really, standard calculation of what they call positive predictive value. The abstract basically said that in asymptomatic populations, the chance of a positive coronavirus test being a true positive is only about 20%. 80% will be false positive.” “Doesn’t that mean the test means nothing?” I asked. “The Chinese analysis was a mathematical analysis, a standard, the standard analysis that’s been done a million times before. There’s no reason to withdraw the paper for any reason. There’s nothing dramatic about the paper. It’s a really boring analysis. It’s just that they did the standard analysis and said, in some populations, like they estimated 1% of people are actually infected in the population. You could have 80% false positive. Uh, they couldn’t do a real analysis of false positives in terms of determining whether a test is correct or not because that requires a gold standard and the only gold standard is purification of the virus. So, we get back to the fact that the virus is not being purified. If you could purify the virus, then you could take a hundred people who tested positive and you could search for the virus in them. And if you found the virus in 50 out of a hundred and not in the other 50, you could say that the test is only accurate 50% of the time. But we have no way to do that because we haven’t yet purified the virus. And I don’t think we ever will.””” "[W]e haven’t yet purified the virus." According to the article, this means that no one has actually isolated it yet, to pinpoint what it is exactly, and what gives it its own specific identity. Yep. ““Crowe described a case in the literature of a woman who had been in contact with a suspect case of Corona (in Wuhan) they believed was the index case. “She was important to the supposed chain of infection because of this. They tested her 18 times, different parts of the body, like nose, throat—different PCR tests. 18 different tests. And she tested negative every time. And then they—because of her epidemiological connection with the other cases, they said: “We consider her infected. So, they had 18 negative tests and they said she was infected.” “Now why was she important? Well there was only one other person who could have theoretically transmitted the virus if the original patient, outside the family was who they thought it was. But secondly, she had the same exact symptoms as everybody else. Right? So, four people in his family came down with fever and cough and headaches, fatigue and all these kinds of big symptoms. So, if she could get those symptoms without the virus, then you, you’ve got to say, well, why couldn’t everybody else’s symptoms be explained by whatever she had? I mean, maybe they, they ate some bad seafood or something and so they all got sick, but it had nothing to do with the coronavirus.”” So, it goes something like this: "Um, boss? 18 tests and no dice. What do we do?" "Well, without her the whole thing falls apart." "So…" "She's positive, of course! Lock her up!" ““Another interesting thing is that they did a lot of tests. The first person in the list of people tested, he was positive on three out of 11 tests. So again, they took nose and throat samples and you know, different methods and all this kind of stuff. And they got 11 separate tests and only three were positive. And of course, all you need to be considered infected is one positive test. They could test you 20 times and if you test positive once, then you’re infected. So, a positive test is meaningful. A negative test. It’s like, eh. Not so much.”” What kind of test comes back positive 3 out of 11 times? And what kind of doctor/scientists relies on such sketchy tests?!? US: Hospitals Get Paid $13K to List Patients as COVID-19 and $39K to Put Them on a Ventilator April 9, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/04/us-hospitals-get-paid-13k-to-list-patients-as-covid-19-and-39k-to-put-them-on-a-ventilator “Republican state senator Scott Jensen, who is also a medical doctor, says the AMA is encouraging doctors to over-count coronavirus deaths. He revealed that “Medicare is determining that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you get $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator you get $39,000, three times as much.” Several days ago, he told local media he received a directive from the Minnesota Department of Health to list COVID-19 as the cause of death on death certificates even if patients were never tested for it. –G. Edward Griffin” This one is well-known by now, but we think it is entirely undervalued! Hospitals are businesses! This is a major conflict of interests! James Corbett also mentioned recently that putting someone on a ventilator is a serious medical intervention, and that, on a regular day, something on the order of 40% of people put on them die! But, oh, that was coronavirus. Governors of 10 States Will Require ‘Contact Tracing’ to Reopen April 15, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/governors-of-10-states-will-require-contact-tracing-to-reopen If you look at the date, you will notice that this was already the language back when we were roughly a month into this whole debacle! It's almost as if it was previously decided. Dr. Ngozi Ezike | How COVID Deaths are Classified April 27, 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw9Ci2PZKZg&feature=youtu.be “Everyone who is listed as a COVID death, doesn’t mean that was the cause of death, but that they had COVID at the time of death.” This is another one of those things most people (should) know about by now, but again is super important, as it means that the numbers being reported as "COVID deaths" are really, really not that. This also represents another conflict of interests, as there is big money for hospitals for reporting COVID deaths (this is discussed below). Gov. Little plans to distribute $300 million in cash grants to small businesses as state enters Stage 1 of reopening April 30, 2020 https://gov.idaho.gov/pressrelease/gov-little-plans-to-distribute-300-million-in-cash-grants-to-small-businesses-as-state-enters-stage-1-of-reopening/ Our "conservative" governor, here in Idaho, made sure to declare us to be in a state of "extreme emergency" right from the start, when we had exactly zero deaths, and only a small number of "cases". This assured him approximately $1.3 BILLION in federal funds. Declare non-existent pandemic. Check. Get loads of "free money." Check. Hooray for "redistributing the wealth!" New York Funeral Directors Say COVID-19 Deaths are Greatly Exaggerated April 30, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/new-york-funeral-directors-say-covid-19-deaths-are-greatly-exaggerated/ “James O’Keefe of Project Veritas spoke to several funeral directors in New York who say the number of reported COVID-19 death is greatly exaggerated and that no one is testing. Funeral director Michael Lanza said that it was his opinion that NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio is looking for federal funding and, the more COVID death certificate they can create, the more federal funds they receive.” -G. Edward Griffin” It is more than appropriate that this article follows the one above. The Farce and Diabolical Agenda of A “Universal Lockdown” May 1, 2020 https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-cruelty-universal-lockdown/5710798 “On January 30, WHO declared COVID-19 a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC).

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Suggests People Who Promote Gatherings On Social Media Will Face Legal Action May 3, 2020 https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-suggests-people-who-promote-gatherings-on-social-media-will-face-legal-action “So, that means if you host a party, if you promote a party, if you go to a party, we’re not playing games, we mean business and we are going to shut this down one way or the other,” Lightfoot continued. “The time for educating people into compliance is over, don’t be stupid don’t come out, don’t advertise on social media, we’re watching you and we are going to take decisive action.”” This woman is an utter fool, as demonstrated by her recently recorded comments about wanting to hire city employees who pledge allegiance to the New World Order, but note the theme here: Stop thinking for yourselves! Big Brother knows what's best for you! Not only surveillance state, but promoting the police state, as well. * Fact-checking sites claim that the mayor's comments were somehow altered or taken out of context. We think the linked video makes it pretty clear that this is untrue.

Magufuli said on Sunday the imported test kits were faulty as they had returned positive results on a goat and a pawpaw — among several non-human samples submitted for testing, with technicians left deliberately unaware of their origins.” Oopsies. Well, that doesn't inspire trust in those tests, now, does it?

Whistleblower: CBS News Staged Fake COVID-19 Testing Line In Michigan May 6, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/whistleblower-cbs-news-staged-fake-covid-19-testing-line-in-michigan “An insider came forward to Project Veritas with hidden camera recordings revealing how CBS News organized a fake coronavirus testing line at the Cherry Health facility in Grand Rapids, and used “fake patients” recruited from the medical staff to make the CBS news report look authentic. CBS denied staging the event and removed the Cherry Health portion from the piece.” -G. Edward Griffin” This was back when all the talk was still about "flattening the curve" (ie, keeping the hospitals from being overwhelmed with sick and dying), and all the mainstream media outlets were talking about huge lines for testing. All the while, emergency tents were being taken down because they never saw a single person. ’60 Minutes’ Exposes 1976 Swine Flu Hoax & Mass Vaccine Injuries That Followed May 7, 2020 https://needtoknow.news/2020/05/60-minutes-exposes-1976-swine-flu-hoax-mass-vaccine-injuries-that-followed/ “In 1976, the US government declared that everyone should take a vaccine to stop a national pandemic from the Swine flu. At that time, the US had a population of 218-million people, and 46-million took the vaccine. Four-thousand were injured by the vaccine and filed lawsuits for-$3.5 billion. Most of the claims were for neurological damage and death. According to 60 Minutes, the vaccine was never even tested, although the media propaganda proclaimed that it was safe and effective – and necessary to prevent the spread of a pandemic that never was.” -G. Edward Griffin” Sound familiar? We wonder why so many people are publicly declaring their opposition to this exact same scenario? It's almost like they don't want to repeat history, or something.

For a "pandemic" that still does not exist. CDC acknowledges mixing up coronavirus testing data May 21, 2020 https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/499085-cdc-acknowledges-mixing-up-coronavirus-testing-data What? The "professionals" at the CDC mixed up some unrelated and completely different data, and reported it as one number? That's hard to believe! (Note: We don't.) Also, other professionals also find it hard to believe, as evidenced by the quotes in the next article: ‘How Could the CDC Make That Mistake?’ May 21, 2020 https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/05/cdc-and-states-are-misreporting-covid-19-test-data-pennsylvania-georgia-texas/611935/ “The government’s disease-fighting agency is conflating viral and antibody tests, compromising a few crucial metrics that governors depend on to reopen their economies.” Remember that article with a ton of quotes, above? The one we said was super-important? Yeah, so that PRC test that was declared by its creator as unfit for medical diagnosis is the same one "that governors depend on to reopen their economies". That shouldn't concern you at all, though.

Before face masks, Americans went to war against seat belts May 26, 2020 https://www.businessinsider.com/when-americans-went-to-war-against-seat-belts-2020-5 This crappy article correctly identifies this as yet another step in the war of coercion versus liberty, and basically claims that since we allowed the federal government to take away our freedom previously, we should not have a problem with it now. Which, itself, is actually the problem. Oregon uses coronavirus data to make decisions about reopening. It refuses to release that data. June 3, 2020 https://www.oregonlive.com/coronavirus/2020/06/oregon-uses-coronavirus-data-to-make-decisions-about-reopening-it-refuses-to-release-that-data.html This is just like how NIST has still never released their data for calculating the collapse of WTC7, or Pelosi saying we could find out what was in the Obamacare bill after it had passed. Frankly, we don't trust anyone, especially not government. US company rolls out ‘health pass’ app to block ‘unhealthy’ users from airports, workplace June 4, 2020 https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/us-company-rolls-out-health-pass-app-to-block-unhealthy-users-from-airports-workplace “The 'health pass' service is being marketed for businesses to scan arriving employees at a workplace, giving them a passing or failing COVID-19 grade, which determines whether they can enter.” With tests that arbitrarily deem you positive or negative for coronavirus, now we have businesses and other locations who will use that to determine whether or not you have access to, say, your job. Choose not to comply with ridiculous mandates or policies because you now know how stupid this whole thing is? Too bad. You will be treated like a criminal.

People's Rights got involved in the other case, which kept it from ending up on the news. Here, the individual's attorney is bringing it to light, although they are unable to provide details.

Our Endless State of "Emergency" and De Facto Dictatorship June 25, 2020 https://mises.org/power-market/our-endless-state-emergency-and-de-facto-dictatorship “But even this highly moderate view of Hayek's would be an immense improvement from the current status quo, which is one in which governors can appoint themselves de facto dictators for an open-ended amount of time, and in which the only way of ending the one-man rule is for the legislature to take extraordinary measures.” This accurately describes what has happened here in Idaho.

The Recent Spikes in COVID-19 Cases Represents a Patently Fake Increase July 7, 2020 http://stateofthenation.co/?p=19396 “New definitions for designating Covid-19 cases have been distributed by the Department of State Health Services in Texas… In the new case definition contact tracing is included to report other people who were in contact with the one person who physically tested positive.” So, in Texas, "cases" now include anyone they can trace to a person who has tested positive, Whether or not they have been tested themselves, and whether or not they are sick. Makes sense… OPERATION COVID-19 is pushing Western Civilization into the Third World July 7, 2020 http://stateofthenation.co/?p=19415 Large and powerful organizations like the World Economic Forum are currently planning to use this “pandemic” as a way to push something called “The Great Reset,” about which they say: “”…the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions. Every country, from the United States to China, must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed. In short, we need a “Great Reset” of capitalism.”” This is another of the most important things we hope you will take away from this article. Globalists want to use it–and are using it!–to destroy everything we hold dear. My investigation of COVID-19 July 7, 2020 https://blog.nomorefakenews.com/2020/07/07/my-investigation-of-covid-19/ “Drug companies make money on the vaccine and the drugs used to treat COVID-19 patients. State governments receive federal money to “fight the virus.” Researchers win promotions. Public health agencies obtain more funding, and more power. Financiers buy up devalued properties at bargain prices. At the top of the ladder, key plotters contrive selling the story of a new killer virus, because they intend to use it to lock down the planet. Why? Because they want to torpedo economies and move in on the wreckage and build a new economic, social, and political world order.” Jon Rappaport is a good journalist, but this is the most important quote from this article, and it belongs right here, beneath the article above. Should We Trust The Covid Tests? Jul7 8, 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hac3ibzFf2E Many people do not know that former presidential candidate, Senator Ron Paul, is also a doctor. They discuss, among other things, the fact that a professional baseball player has received two positive and two negative test results within a period of 10 days. “[T]wo Texas counties are threatening felony charges against those with positive tests who do not stay home.” Does this make sense when “It’s No Longer a Felony to Knowingly Infect Someone with HIV-AIDS in California“? Well, it makes about as much sense as letting actual criminals out of jail because coronavirus, just to turn around and put people in jail because they violated lockdown orders by going to church. Politics Influences the Science of COVID-19 July 8, 2020 https://joshmitteldorf.scienceblog.com/2020/07/08/politics-influences-the-science-of-covid-19/ “I’m writing here about two issues: (1) Numbers reported by CDC have been gamed to make it appear that America is in the second wave of a pandemic. Instead of reporting COVID deaths, they began reported COVID cases. Then they conflated recovered individuals (who test positive for antibodies) with current cases (who test positive for the active virus). No wonder numbers are rising! (2) A new report featured prominently in Nature purports to show that lockdowns have stemmed the spread of the virus and have saved lives. The article is by the same team whose flawed models produced apocalyptic predictions last March that justified lockdowns in Europe and the US.” Another good article that deserves a full read-through. 3 States Account for 42 Percent of All COVID-19 Deaths in America.
