News Briefs – 04/02/2020

I always see lots of r/K related stories I think might interest the readers here, but I only have time to blog about a few, so here are some additional news stories that might be of interest. Most articles will be more or less summarized in the headline. For unknown reasons, in some browsers the tweets in these posts display best if you click on the post instead of viewing it on the main page. You can skim the headlines and summaries, and click the links if they are of interest. Keep in mind, many of these reports are products of the Fake News, so although they will be what people are hearing and talking about, there is no guarantee any one of them is necessarily correct, and we have had cases of outright lies make it onto these pages, especially about President Trump.

No Q. You can see Q’s posts aggregated live, and new ones which may have gone live after our print deadline at http://www.qanon.pub

Train engineer decides the Hospital Ship Mercy is part of a bigger conspiracy, and so to draw attention to it, he commandeers a train, lights up a road flare to hold, and proceeds to put the train at top speed right to the end of the line, crashes through the barriers, and comes to rest a couple of hundred feet from the ship. This will sound insane, but I go out to walk my dogs at night, and the trains in stations around my house blow their horns, as if on cue on orders of somebody in central control. I go inside, and can hear over the surveillance system that it stops. Sometimes the same thing happens with sirens, and firehouse air-horn sirens. I just put that here for the historical record. Make of the account what you will.

There is a type of respirator which matches the N95 mask specs, but which is much cheaper, and available on ebay. It is called the KN95.

There are already eight distinct genetic variants of the Coronavirus spreading across the globe.

China ‘finds new coronavirus strain that lasts for 49 days’ in infected patient.

Another pet cat infected in Hong Kong. The kid who was falsely reported to have beaten Corona with Hot Toddies reported that as he was sick as a dog, the cat that lived in his flat got listless and died.

In the Italian province of Bergamo, an new analysis claims 4500 deaths, compared with the official number of 2,000.

Scientists found Coronavirus genes in the air in a hospital. They can’t tell if they were just remnants of viruses, or if they were infective viruses, but the material was there.

Chris Cuomo was shivering so badly from his Coronavirus infection he chipped a tooth and says it is like nothing he has ever experienced. The big question is, did he get himself some TrumpPills. In the video in a tweet below he is talking about it, talking with dead people he knew, and hallucinating, and I am thinking given how this thing waxes and wanes, he might not make it.

Coronavirus is now the third leading cause of death in the US, doctor says. If true, bear in mind this is at the very beginning, with mitigation. Had Trump treated it like a flu, it would not have been like a flu.

Michigan Democrat Governor asks Feds for Hydroxychloroquine to treat Coronavirus victims, four days after banning the use of it.

Pentagon looking to provide up to 100,000 body bags for potential civilian use.

In Afghanistan, Afghanis are flooding back into the country from Iran as they flee the outbreak there.

A Conservative Christian Pastor announces massive outdoor Easter service ‘like Woodstock’ after Florida Pastor is arrested. Notice, here is an established social leader trying to get all Trump’s supporters to get together and infect each other with Coronavirus. He can’t be this stupid.

Schiff is trying to set up a 9/11 style commission to probe the Coronavirus response.

Biden campaign says it will arrange call with Trump about coronavirus. Biden says he wants to offer Trump advice.

NYPD hit hard, with almost 6,000 cops out sick, and over 1,000 testing positive. Even they are victims of Cabal’s control. Almost none of them probably realize that all of the outlets where they get their information will be under the central control of the narrative crafters, and thus all they would have heard is you don’t need a mask, the virus isn’t that bad, and all you need is a little hand sanitizer. And I am sure if there is a cop in the precinct who knows how it works, the guys all joke about him being a conspiracy theorist. The programming is deep, and insidious.

Coast Guard directs cruise ships with infected passengers to stay offshore ‘indefinitely.’

Zaandam cruise coming to South Florida Thursday, and sick passengers will go to Broward Health. Two other sick ships, the Rotterdam and the Coral Princess are also steaming toward South Florida.

Mike Pompeo said it’s unknown how long flights from other countries will continue operating, so Americans abroad who wish to return should do so immediately.

Poorest Americans are being hardest hit by the Coronavirus in New York. If it is like the bubonic plague, it may take out the lowest IQ’s preferentially, and those may be the easily programmable drones who give the Cabal their power. It would be extraordinarily ironic if Cabal released this to buy time, and it ends up wiping out the very parts of our populations which they require to hold power. And you thought it was going to be a Renaissance coming when all we had was Q. I am wondering if Q’s Plan is really God’s plan.

Los Angeles Mayor urges citizens to wear non-medical masks whenever they go out.

Coronavirus has caused the majority of Americans to pray.

Duterte warns those who violate coronavirus lockdown will be shot dead.

‘Pandemic’ Netflix show scientist claims a breakthrough on a COVID-19 cure in the form of antibodies which vigorously block and stop the Coronavirus.

Ben Carson says, quickly evolving Coronavirus treatments could change Landscape ‘in the next week or two.’

Another Chinese study shows that giving just one of the two Trump pills produces significant benefit.

French study is up to 1524 patients treated with Hydroxychloroquine with Azithromycin, and of this population, only 1 death has been recorded. 

Data suggests spread of the Coronavirus is slowing in the USA. The spread rate of the virus is not just determined by the characteristics of the virus, but also by the characteristics of the populations it is infecting. This thing is presently weaving its way through the idiots who don’t take any measures to protect themselves. It is possible once they are all either dead or immune, the effective R0 of the virus will plummet, and you will be able to eliminate the lockdowns, and still not have that much transmission. Especially if everyone is masked, in goggles/glasses, and practicing hand hygiene.

Update on this next one – Trump just forbid all outflows of PPE:

CDC is delaying testing which could help contain the virus in New York, which looks like another case of sabotage:

So the fishtank-cleaner coronavirus cure couple looks more like a murder by the wife wrapped up in a bogus cover story.

UC tells students ‘Do not’ cay ‘Chinese virus’ and ‘do not allow’ others to say it either. Why all this China groveling?

The Press Corps Association bans OAN from White House Press briefings because one reporter was invited by Press Secretary Grisham as a special guest, and went.

Biden, pushing for vote by mail, calls Trump’s opposition to Dem proposals ‘ridiculous.’ He could literally be President if he got vote by mail.

Biden confirms he’s considering Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as a potential running mate in his White House bid. What is the over/under on how many times he sniffs her hair?

Remains of 90-million-year-old rainforest found near South Pole. Sounds like a crust shift. There is a theory that the centripetal force of the rotating planet causes the crust to get unbalanced with dense parts at the pols, some even think loaded with ice, and less dense/heavy parts at the equator, and if the dense parts at the poles get a little off center and start wobbling, the centripetal force of the spinning will pull those dense parts outward to the equator suddenly, realigning the surface with respect to the axis. So under that, this theory wouldn’t mean the earth was so hot there was a rainforest at the South Pole, but rather that the area there was once equatorial.

Russian plane with coronavirus medical gear lands in U.S. after Trump-Putin call.

Italians burn EU flag.

Oil prices could soon turn negative as the world runs out of places to store crude, analysts warn. I’m just thinking, if greenhouse gasses have done anything, it is to stave off the cyclical Ice Age we were supposed to be heading into. And now, we have removed that one crutch keeping our temperatures from falling off the precipice, as we are supposed to be much colder. You have to wonder if it could push us past the tipping point and trigger a sudden cool down.

Trump launches massive all out military offensive on drug cartels.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg is still meeting with her trainer at the gym twice a week to workout.

Harvard/Harris poll says 5-in-6 Americans want to end immigration from Mexico.

Online learning rockets in coronavirus pandemic, says Pearson Education – families are now adapting to home schooling.

From yesterday’s comments and response from AC this morning:

“Demerera says:

Not really related, but heartiste has disappeared. No new posts or responses on Ga[b] for more than a week. Not like him at all. Any ideas on how to make sure he’s still alive?

Anonymous Conservative says:

Very related. He was one of the best voices of reality out there.”

Repeating this again in case anyone has heard from Heartiste. He’s on Gab; nothing since March 19; there has been nothing new posted on his archive site either (which is normal since the site is mothballed). (FYI, he modifies his user name sometimes; so it’s “Heartvid-19” lately).

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the [public] is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.”

-Edward Bernays writing in Propaganda, l928

Starting to think that ex-CIA Robert David Steele’s thesis, that this is a mass simulation for psyop purposes, is correct. Being conducted on a global scale to consolidate global governance authority, as well as de facto institution of socialism and further consolidate elite control of economic activity, acceptance of social controls, complete surveillance through smartphones and IoT devices, elimination of paper currency, and roll-out of 5G, which greatly enhances IoT and physical surveillance capabilities, and may have biological effects.

Re: Ryan Saavedra’s comment about the social “benefits” of this virus.

I believe, or want to believe, that children and parents are tightly bonding because of the quarantine. Now, parents have the time to figure out who their kids are and what they need (hint: love). I wonder how many mothers will have a difficult time going back to work, and how many fathers will shed a silent tear when travelling and working long hours resume? Perhaps this virus will cause families to choose to live more simply, just to be together.

Similarly, couples now have the time to look into each other’s eyes and share dreams, laughter, hopes, disappointments and even confessions. Forced intimacy is a good thing. It sets the stage for honesty which, in turn, sets the stage for love. This virus has gifted couples with this time, a time they would not have had otherwise.

For those who survive, this virus is a huge gift, that of time and togetherness. It’s so K-ifying, is it not? Stronger nuclear families. Cooking and the sharing of meals. Long, slow walks … longer, deeper conversations. Playing with the kids. Reading aloud. Praying together. Love-making in it’s wonderful permutations.

Time is one of the few luxuries worth paying for.

As an aside, I had to go out to do a bit of shopping. Wally World beckoned; I succumbed! Just kidding. In truth, I did shop at WW, and while there, made a brief visual count of PPE among shoppers: six people were wearing masks, one gloves but no mask, one gloves only. Most workers had gloves. In the store, there must have been 200 people, but it’s hard to tell.

I also drove by Lowes (to pick up a pizza for which a family member begged … sigh). The lot was crammed full, more so than at Christmastime! Lots of airborne viral particles in the lungs of rehabbers …

Um… watch this before it disappears….. WTH? no lines, no masses of people getting tested and flooding hospitals; is this all a lie? refrigerator truck for corpses, but not one corpse; first responders overwhelmed supposedly, but photos of them sitting in their ambulances watching videos; one EMT guy says he’s seen 3 virus “victims” (and he assumed based on the symptoms) .. empty parking lots ….

WTF? More on this, please. I am not near a “hot spot,” so I assume my local hospitals will be empty. So, not something I can check. But…. WTF?

Assume, for a minute, they are lying. Why? What’s the play? Note it’s NYC that is a “hot spot” with a mayor and governor to read the script and reinforce the lies. Sundance wondered why NYC is the hot spot when the west coast has the more direct linkages with China. SF and LA would be more logical hot spots.

This has nothing to do with the virus itself, but rather with our future response to pandemics and other disasters.

As you may know, I had the virus and survived it — so far. Today I had my third test, to confirm that I’m virus-negative. During that test, I had my temperature taken, and to my surprise, it was high. I don’t know what this portends. Please pray.

You may remember that I had a difficult time procuring the quinine-based drug needed to survive. This got me thinking about how “we” should deal with government/cabal created shortages in the future, not just in medicine but in other vital areas such as employment and wealth creation. Somehow, we have to protect ourselves. First.

I used to think of our country as splintered into tens, perhaps a hundred, major socio-cultural groups, but no longer think this way. America is bifurcated, not splintered. If I’m right in this, there is no middle ground. No mushy center. No “independent” position between the poles. If, at bottom, there are only two mentalities/worldviews (this blog’s rK insight plays nicely here), the logical conclusion is inescapable: We’re at war.

But we’re not acting as if we’re at war. “We” — however we decide to define ourselves — don’t have the close connections we need to survive in a war environment. That’s the bottom line. This morning I read an article about Jews and the virus. In it, the author off-handedly mentioned that Jews have twice the “connectedness” as non-Jews. Here’s the money quote:

“The Jewish American community, from the most religious to the most secular, is at unique risk from the coronavirus because the density of Jewish social networks across all denominations is almost twice as thick as that of the average American.”

Twice as thick …
The density of Jewish social networks is twice as thick … just ponder the implications of this statement!

We have a word for this — nepotism.

But, we don’t have a solution to the thick nepotism of our opponents. That solution is simple, though I can’t get my head around how to accomplish it: we need to reestablish the connectedness that used to characterise America prior to 1950. I don’t know how to do this, but I sense time is running short. Somehow, we need to beat our opponents at this game or we may not survive. This is not an academic mind-game. It is defacto war. Right now, it’s a political, economic, social and cultural war, but eventually, if pushed against the wall … who knows.

As someone who has had far more “thick” Jewish connections than anyone else who happens to be reading this, I want to say this: All Jews are NOT our opponents. Similarly, all Protestants and trad Catholics are not our friends. I think we’re going to be surprised at the identities of people who walk over that dividing line to our side. And, too, we’ll be surprised at the number and names of heritage Americans who ditched their natural loyalties to gain curry with those they deemed more powerful.

So, the problem is two-fold: 1) We don’t know who is on our side; 2) We don’t know how to quickly — QUICKLY — re-establish the connections we need with each other to create the thick nepotism needed to survive.

I’m offering this as fodder for thought. I hope — sincerely hope and pray — that our blogmeister isn’t offended at the tone or direction of this wee comment. My hunch is he agrees just as I agree with much that he’s written. I’ll play the fool, then.

For us.

“That solution is simple, though I can’t get my head around how to accomplish it: we need to reestablish the connectedness that used to characterise America prior to 1950.”

You’d be astonished at how thorough and wide-ranging the war has been to disconnect us. And I say that knowing that someone frequenting the website is going to be far more up to speed than most. They’ve been VERY thorough. We’ve been atomized.

Here’s the nature of this war: it’s left vs right for the center of our country. Donald Trump understands this. He aims for the center. He seeks to get the old blue collar working class from the Dems. And he seeks the blacks and the hispanics.

People up on the Q thing wonder why things aren’t happening faster. There are many reasons. But the most important of all is that Trump’s first strategic priority must always be winning re-election. His presidency has been like a counterinsurgency military operation to win the support of the populace. He doesn’t bother trying to win everybody. But he knows that it’s the middle that counts. The hard core leftist/progressive/compulsive democrats are no more than 30% total. They can only win by reaching the center.

The war for this country must be directed towards the center and pulling them our way and showing them that the Dems are a menace.

I know people who’ve gone to hospital for incredibly mild, non-related conditions e.g. UTI, who are now FORCED onto a respirator. Maybe they’re injecting them with it as an experiment or something? “Vaccine” test? Either that or they’re not containing the spread. Also, most NHS worker deaths are white because the non-white are allowed to take mysterious “sick leave” on full pay and let them struggle, the cowards.

Miles Mathis recently made a brief comment that his model isn’t fitting reality lately, so I’m still banking on Grand Solar Minimum. This year coming up is looking to be a doozy; second year in a row of crop failures. Farmers are already having their animal feed rationed, but it is being passed off as “due to corona”. Snow pack is high, meaning we will likely have flooding just like last year, and unseasonable cold is delaying planting, also like last year. Never mind corona, we are staring down the barrel of massive famine; I think the purpose of the corona-psyop is to shake out the kinks in the command and control structures before the famine hits. They have a plan, and they haven’t told you what it is.

I’d go with pole shifts over crust shifts. Much more sound and is supported by the evidence.

iceagenow.info by Robert Felix is an excellent source for information about this. That website is awesome and he mostly covers the weather, and sometimes recent events.
