Cutting Through The Baloney

By Ben Garrison

Is it about the virus? Or is it about the election.

Eric Trump said it best:

“They (Democrats) think they are taking away Donald Trump’s greatest tool, which is being able to go into an arena and fill it with 50,000 people every single time. You watch, they’ll milk it every single day between now and Nov. 3. And guess what, after Nov. 3 coronavirus will magically all of a sudden go away and disappear and everybody will be able to reopen.”

“Stay at Home.” There was NO reason for it!

Knut Wittowski, an epidemiologist, is arguing that the draconian government lockdowns are based on bad science and that we could “open up again and forget the whole thing” if we wanted too.

“Firstly, we have the direct consequences: suicides, domestic violence and other social consequences leading to death,” Wittkowski said of the lockdowns. “And then we have people who are too scared to go to the hospitals for other problems like strokes or heart attacks. So people stay away from hospitals because of the Covid fear. And then they die.”

“Shutting down schools, driving the economy against the wall — there was no reason for it,” Wittkowski said. “The only reason that this nonsense now goes on and on, and people are inventing things like this ‘second wave,’ which is going to force us to change society and never live again, is that the politicians are afraid of admitting an error.”

Wittowski interview with Spiked:

“Social Distancing” This is only hurting human relationships and making citizens into clowns as they wear pool noodle hats and inner tubes around their waists to maintain the six foot apart rule. Why six? why not ten? or five? Who came up with this nonsense?

“New Normal?” No Way!

People are waking up. Anit-lockdown (tyranny) protests erupt in German, Spain, UK and the Netherlands..more to come! Global Tyranny is getting massive pushback from people all across the globe- we don’t call it the GREAT AWAKENING FOR Nothing!

Trump also confirms the Wuhan virus vaccine will NOT be mandatory! Bill Gates hardest hit!

“Wear Your Mask?” No thanks- we will NOT wear the mask of submission and it causes serious issues for healthy people!

We have seen covid-sheep wearing masks outside in the fresh air! Idiots!

We are old enough to remember when the CDC said- masks will not protect you from the virus!

Use common sense! Wash your hands, stay home if your sick and cover your mouth with your arm when you cough- we have lived though far worst flu seasons than the covid 19 “pandemic” and came out fine!

Remember don’t buy their baloney! This is the Deep State and China’s last gasp to take out Trump. Wait and see what happens if Biden wins in November..(he won’t) Covid-19 will magically disappear and China will dance a jig of relief!

The COVID Lockdown Ends When ‘We The People’ Withdraw Our Consent…

By Sundance/The Conservative Treehouse

The power of government comes from the people; or as we say in the U.S. “from the consent of the governed.” When the people lead, the politicians are forced to follow.

Without implied consent the municipal or state government has no power. None.

As a result, the lock-downs end when the majority of We The People no longer give our consent.

How do We The People retract our consent? We simply refuse to comply.

When the majority of people simply refuse to comply with unilateral dictates, and laugh in the faces of those who attempt to enforce them, the government no longer has power.

If one person refuses to comply government can, and likely will, intervene. However, if tens of thousands rebuke these unconstitutional decrees, there isn’t a damn thing govt can do to stop it… and they know it. This is why some state governors are quickly starting to retract or modify their dictates.

A non-compliant snowball becomes an unstoppable freedom avalanche.

Local, regional and state officials know they can control the behavior of an individual. If one barber shop opens, the owner becomes a target. However, those officials also know they cannot control the behavior of the majority. If every barber shop and beauty salon in town opens… there is absolutely nothing the government can do about it.

If one restaurant and/or bar opens, the state can target the owner. But if every bar and restaurant in town opens; and if everyone ignores and dispatches the silly dictates of the local, regional or state officials; there isn’t a damned thing they can do about it.

The power of the local, regional or state authority comes from the expressed consent of the people. As soon as the majority of people deny that consent, those officials and state authoritarians lose all of their power.

Yes, it really is that simple.

Those who construct the systems of control need to weaponize fear. Fear of arrest; fear of losing a business; fear of losing liberty or financial security. Local, regional and state officials rely on fear. As soon as the people are no longer fearful, the control ends.

The overwhelming majority of dictates around COVID-19 mitigation are not laws. There was no debate; no input from representative government; and no option for the public to weigh-in on the decisions.

All unilateral rules are arbitrary, and despite many proclamations to the contrary, they rely upon voluntary compliance. As soon as citizens no longer voluntarily comply, the term of the rules has expired. If masks are so effective then why didn’t government give masks to prisoners, instead of releasing the inmates?

Liberty is inherent.

The removal of liberty requires consent.

Additionally, if you choose not to decide you still have made a choice. So choose wisely.

Remember that; and think about it.

Sit in a circle today; sit in a cattle-car tomorrow.

Big Brother COVID-19 “Contact Tracing” Involves Clintons, Soros

Via The New American

Under the guise of fighting the coronavirus, governments across the United States and beyond are partnering with shady organizations connected to the Clintons and George Soros to deploy Orwellian “contact tracing” schemes involving technology and tens of thousands of new government workers to track everyone. Families may be forcibly separated. And military forces and war-like rhetoric are already being used as the effort to shred all vestiges of privacy advances. At least one world leader even suggested putting microchips under children’s skin to track them.

In Congress, Democrat lawmakers are pushing a massive bill, H.R. 6666, to fund a national surveillance regime of “contact tracing” that would include sending swarms of government agents around visiting peoples’ homes. Known as the COVID-19 Testing, Reaching and Contacting Everyone (TRACE) Act, the unconstitutional legislation would pump $100 billion just in 2020 into tracing and quarantining anyone who may have supposedly been exposed to the virus. Prospects for passage remain unclear, but freedom activists are already gearing up for a fight.

The disgraced World Health Organization, meanwhile, has been advocating similar tracking schemes to facilitate the forcible removal of family members from their own homes, supposedly to deal with the virus. A “central part” of contact tracing will be to “remove” individuals from the comfort of their own houses and families if they become or might possibly be suspected of becoming sick, WHO “emergencies” boss Michael Ryan said in a bizarre UN press briefing outlining the unprecedented plan.

“At the moment, in most parts of the world, due to lockdown, most of the transmission that is actually happening in many countries now is happening in the household, at family level,” he declared last month. “In some senses, transmission has been pushed off the streets, and pushed back into family units. Now, we need to go and look in families to find those people who may be sick, and remove them and isolate them in a safe and dignified manner.”

Did you catch that? The WHO wants government bureaucrats invading family homes to search for suspected sick people so they can be removed from their homes and families. Adding insult to injury, the WHO bureaucrat later claimed that the virus might “never” go away. While President Donald Trump has blasted the WHO and cut its funding for serving as a propaganda mouthpiece for the mass-murdering Communist Chinese dictatorship, some American totalitarians have apparently been paying attention.

Ventura County, California, bureaucrats, for example, seem to have taken WHO Ryan’s message to heart. In a press conference that drew nationwide outrage, county officials there announced that they would be removing family members from their own homes based on “contact tracing” schemes if the homes did not have enough bathrooms. Other state and local governments promptly followed suit after that, with Democrat governors and mayors scrambling in an apparent effort to see who could come up with the most abusive and outrageous policies.

Washington State Governor Jay Inslee, a radical Democrat, boasted that contact tracing would be a “smart weapon” to be used on families — some of whom will be separated from each other, according to Inslee and other government officials. Job postings revealed that the state Department of Children, Youth, and Families was even seeking workers to “supervise” and “support” children in “Emergency Quarantine Centers.” It was not immediately clear what sort of medical care or treatments might be foisted on the children, or if their parents would be consulted.

In an Orwellian press conference, Inslee also noted that even those residents without positive test results could be involuntarily quarantined, and that “highly trained” government operatives would be leading the charge. Much of the work will be led by military forces, with the governor bringing on a National Guard lieutenant to support his schemes. “It is just great to have people who understand discipline and the importance of following orders,” added Inslee, a radical left-wing extremist, who repeatedly bragged that the troops would “follow orders.”

The Constitution Will Not Protect You From the TRACE Act

Via American Greatness

At this point, it should be painfully clear: We must protect the Constitution.

Congress is considering H.R. 6666, the “Testing, Reaching, And Contacting Everyone Act” (“TRACE Act”), a bill by U.S. Representative Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) aimed at limiting the spread of COVID-19.

The bill ostensibly would achieve that goal by creating “mobile health units” to “conduct diagnostic testing . . . trace and monitor the contacts of infected individuals” and then “support the quarantine of such contacts”—all at the cost of $100 billion.

Rush says that “increased testing and contact tracing is the only way we will get back normal and safely reopen our economy.” Essentially, Rush’s position—which is echoed by the bulk of America’s political establishment—is that America should remain locked down until everyone is tested. In other words, until everyone is cleared by the government.

The TRACE Act, like so much of the government’s response to COVID-19, will be a giant waste of money that will do nothing to keep Americans healthy or safe. Instead, it will erode what remains of our constitutional freedoms—freedoms that have been all but washed away during the pandemic’s hysteria.

‘No One Can Buy or Sell Who Does Not Have the Mark…’
Although the TRACE Act has been sponsored by more than 50 congressmen—including former presidential hopeful Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii)—it has received very little examination in the mainstream media. So let’s begin with a brief summary of H.R. 6666.

Section 2(a) of the bill provides that the government may award grants to “eligible entities” to conduct “diagnostic testing for COVID-19,” to “trace and monitor the contacts” of any infected people, and to “support the quarantine of such contacts.” This will be administered by “mobile health units,” which will provide services relating to “testing and quarantine” at people’s residences. The bill would appropriate $100 billion this year alone, and leaves open the possibility of expanding the program in subsequent years.

That is a lot to unpack.

To begin: who are the “eligible entities” that would administer these COVID-19 tests and “support the quarantine”?

According to Section 2(f)(1), they could range from a “federally qualified health center” to a nondescript “nonprofit organization.” If that were not vague enough, the bill also gives the government the discretion to declare “any other type of entity . . . to be an eligible entity.”

In other words, an “eligible entity” is anything the government would like it to be.

These “eligible entities” have a number of tasks. First, they may conduct COVID-19 tests. As the bill does not provide any direction as to how these tests will be conducted, the discretion would rest largely with those entities administering the tests—again, these could be private entities with their own agendas.

The entities will also be assigned with the task of contact tracing people who are infected with COVID-19. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, contact tracing is the process of identifying people whom the infected individual had come into contact with during their infection’s incubation or symptomatic period. The point is to root out others who may be spreading the infection and stop them from doing so.

To stop the infection’s spread, the TRACE Act would empower the entities to “support the quarantine” of identified contacts. How the mobile health units are supposed to support the quarantine is left up to the administrator’s imagination.

Biden Campaign Hires Interpreter To Translate His Speeches Into English

Via The Babylon Bee (Satire)

U.S.—The Biden campaign is facing a real communication problem as Joe Biden’s speeches are growing more and more nonsensical. In order to overcome this challenge, aides have hired an interpreter to translate everything he says into normal, human-style English.

“My fellow Americans, pickle hamster meatloaf. The thing. Potato!” Biden began.

“My fellow Americans, thank you for being here this evening,” the interpreter translated.

Biden continued: “This pandemic has cost us more than 85,000 jobs as of today. Lives of millions of people. Millions of people. Millions of jobs.” He then nodded at the translator to interpret that into something resembling plain English.

“Uh… the, uh, pandemic has cost us tens of millions of jobs, and 85,000 have tragically lost their lives,” she interpreted frantically.

But she struggled to keep up as his speech got less and less coherent.

“Peanut butter M&Ms and my fellow U.S. Americans in the Iraq. Platypus!” was translated as “We must make sure Donald Trump does not continue to rob America of its future,” while “Farley farley farley farley farley hufaaaaaaaar!” was translated as “I am the best choice to beat Donald Trump.”

As Biden’s speech concluded, he said farewell: “Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-PTANG. Zoom-Boing. Z’ nourrwringmm!”

“God bless you, and God bless America.”
