The Real Joe Biden

The Founders must be spinning in their graves. Now it's coming out, after the election, of course. This demonstrates the power of bought media and the power of tribalism. The fact that they hid Biden's condition so well demonstrates the horrific things that can be done in the name of "democracy." Never again trust anyone who asks you to trust them. It's going to make it a lot harder to figure out what is going on, but it's your only option.  Nellie Bowles at The Free Press (visit her article for lots of links):

Oh, Joe Biden: He’s still the sitting president, so we begin here. Another week brings us yet more details on how far Biden has been falling mentally, this time coming from The Wall Street Journal, where a team of reporters describe an insulated, out-of-contact Joe, beginning when he took office. Over his presidency he’s had very, very little contact with people you’d think of as important top figures in the government. We already know he didn’t do evenings, but he wasn’t great in the mornings either. But the 40 minutes in the middle of the day after his nap and before his IV drip? That’s the gold right there. Right at 2:20–3? That’s when America is Online.

“[I]n the spring of 2021, a national security official explained to another aide why a meeting needed to be rescheduled. ‘He has good days and bad days, and today was a bad day so we’re going to address this tomorrow,’ the former aide recalled the official saying.”

Ahead of the disastrous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, key government figures couldn’t get in touch with Joe. As inflation crushed consumers, then–Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was on her own.

Here’s Rep. Jim Himes of Connecticut, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee: “I really had no personal contact with this president.”

Biden was the cozy vessel. He was the comforting smile, a flirty wink that said, I’m normal and you’re safe. In the background, up very early and also very late, were busy bee staffers with a very different vision for the country: opening the border on Day One; $175 billion for student loan forgiveness; plus, for good measure, his presidential proclamation recognizing Trans Day of Visibility (what about lesbians, Joe!). Any given day, staffers just put on the Joe Biden bodysuit and did something absolutely bananas and then said whoa, whoa, are you calling Joe Biden a communist?

Anyway, this is me reading tea leaves, but Biden this week chose the leftist magazine The American Prospect to publish his farewell essay. Obama chose The Economist, a stately bugle for intelligent globalists such as myself. Which is all to say: Joe Biden was never a moderate president. From the day he got in, his mind was slipping and his policies were wild, and in polite, elite society we were all supposed to pretend otherwise because he does give a moderate vibe with those shades and the ice cream cones. And he flirted with a biker chick once—doing a little inappropriate flirting does feel moderate. I do regard that as being politically aligned with me.

Basic Facts About USAID

Today I post this on FB, where am constantly smacked like a pinata by people who are completely ignorant about how U.S. foreign policy works.

If you are not following key people on Twitter, you are living in abject ignorance. You are missing real facts and real conversation. You are inviting corporate media to take over your brain so that you think and mouth corporate propaganda. You might hate what I've written above because you think of yourself as intelligent, but intelligence depends on being well informed by people who speak freely, without censorship. You are not getting that with corporate media. It's time to break out and learn important things that the giant U.S. propaganda machine is hiding from you. Case in point: USAID. You probably know nothing about USAID. You are probably completely ignorant about the damage we have done to dozens of other countries through USAID. We do this in the name of democracy, but that is complete bullshit. Mike Benz explains.

What Public Health Did that was not Forgivable

Dr. Martin Kulldorff, who was fired by Harvard for telling the truth (and who has still not been rehired):

More on Kulldorff's firing by Harvard. Excerpt:

On March 10, 2020, before any government prompting, Harvard declared that it would “suspend in-person classes and shift to online learning.” Across the country, universities, schools, and state governments followed Harvard’s lead.

Yet it was clear, from early 2020, that the virus would eventually spread across the globe, and that it would be futile to try to suppress it with lockdowns. It was also clear that lockdowns would inflict enormous collateral damage, not only on education but also on public health, including treatment for cancer, cardiovascular disease, and mental health. We will be dealing with the harm done for decades. Our children, the elderly, the middle class, the working class, and the poor around the world—all will suffer.

Schools closed in many other countries, too, but under heavy international criticism, Sweden kept its schools and daycares open for its 1.8 million children, ages one to 15. Why? While anyone can get infected, we have known since early 2020 that more than a thousandfold difference in Covid mortality risk holds between the young and the old. Children faced minuscule risk from Covid, and interrupting their education would disadvantage them for life, especially those whose families could not afford private schools, pod schools, or tutors, or to homeschool . . .

Every honest person knows that new drugs and vaccines come with potential risks that are unknown when approved. This was a risk worth taking for older people at high risk of Covid mortality—but not for children, who have a minuscule risk for Covid mortality, nor for those who already had infection-acquired immunity. To a question about this on Twitter in 2021, I responded:

Thinking that everyone must be vaccinated is as scientifically flawed as thinking that nobody should. COVID vaccines are important for older high-risk people and their care-takers. Those with prior natural infection do not need it. Nor children.

If Harvard and its hospitals want to be credible scientific institutions, they should rehire those of us they fired ...

Most Harvard faculty diligently pursue truth in a wide variety of fields, but Veritas has not been the guiding principle of Harvard leaders. Nor have academic freedom, intellectual curiosity, independence from external forces, or concern for ordinary people guided their decisions.

Harvard and the wider scientific community have much work to do to deserve and regain public trust.

The Playbook: How to Completely Ostracize Any Person

Tweet by Holden Culotta, which sets out the playbook for how the elites, those people George Carlin would say are in "The Big Club," are able to socially destroy any person, even good-hearted people who have ideas we desperately need. Video below:

Take 2 minutes to hear an ex-Hillary Clinton insider EXPOSE how Big Pharma/MSM silence their critics.

“Big corporations hire people like me to implement THE PLAYBOOK … ”

It’s used against Elon Musk. Joe Rogan. Tulsi Gabbard. RFK Jr.

Here’s how THE PLAYBOOK works.

Step 1: Attack them broadly, question their facts.

Step 2: Assassinate their character.

Step 3: Call them an antisemite or a racist.

Step 4: Call them crazy. Cook. Crank. Nut job.
