I love the "week in review" posting a b prediction, "The Russian military says that the Ukrainian attack has been stopped. Reserves in the region have been activated and will remove the Ukrainians from Russian terrain. There is no doubt that this will, within a day or two, be achieved," from 3-4 days ago.

No doubt, huh?

This is what you get for swallowing myths from mythmakers uncritically solely because you think "it isn't orthodox, it is heterodox!"

Traditional awareness - Not to fall into temptation.

@Norwegian , find a text actually registered from before 2019 that says 'Covid-19' and I might believe that. In other words a physical entry somewhere before 2019.

Not denying the virus was synthetic, that was shown clearly before lockdowns, and buried. Not sure if purposeful release (or by who) but that is main hypothesis. Trouble with your evidence/'evidence' is that when shown unfounded it will push people towards labeling those questioning as uninformed or undisciplined.

I guess China was a fake doping scandal too far for the Empire of Lies. WADA is just as corrupt as USADA, so obviously they are not pushing back on their own initiative, and the Chinese are the only global player who can stare down the Empire. This puts WADA between a pack of delusional steroided and hormoned up trannies and a hard place, but the clowns at WADA worked hard to put themselves there, so I feel no pity for them. Let’s hope WADA and USADA destroy each other. That would do international sports a world of good.

By the way, almost everyone in American sports cheats. Steroid abuse is huge even in high school athletics these days. There are doctors in every town and city in the country who hand out steroid scripts like candy, and the kids all know who they are. Along with the scripts, the kids get “doctor’s notes” claiming the `roids are for injuries, exempting them from testing. My bet is better than half of American Olympic competitors have these “doctor’s notes”, and all of the ones who actually win are exempted from testing with these notes. It is painfully obvious that many of the American competitors are `roid monsters.

The smoking gun for covid could be most likely found in Eco Health Alliance records.

They had researchers in civilian bio labs around the world and I did find the document telling staff that if they found a pathogen that mutated ten times, they were to cease research immediately and inform Eco Health headquarters.

Genome sequence showed that the virus most likely originated from the strain in bats in a small cluster of caves in Yunnan Eco health had researchers in the Wuhan lab which was the main research lab in the world for sars viruses.

Eco Health also operated in the pentagon labs in Ukraine and no doubt Georgia where development of Bio weapons would be occurring.

A virus strain that is fast mutating plus Pfizer's "Directed evolution".......

According to Tasnim News, the Iraqi Foreign Minister is planning to travel to Washington D.C. next month to announce the end of the US-led International Coalition in Iraq, together with outgoing President Biden.

All U.S. and Coalition forces are scheduled to leave Iraq before September 2025, except the Iraqi Kurdistan region, where U.S. and Coalition forces will remain until September 2026 at the latest.

The normal suspects would have launched war against Yanukovych and it would have been another Syria - only Russia is right next door.

I think if Yanukovych had given orders to put down the colour revolution with force, 404 could likely still be called Ukraine. Perhaps there will be a rump remaining when this is over, perhaps not.

AFAIK, covid-19 is an acronym for corona virus induced disease from 2019.

Why would one want to limit their patent to such a specific disease 4 years in the future?

How could the inventor, even if he is a Rothschild, know that precisely this acronym would be chosen when the disease broke out? And how did the patent get approved with (in 2015) such a non-existent application?

Could it be that the application on covid-19 was a later addition?

I obtained a US utility patent back in 1999 and sold it in 2013 so I know enough about them to be dangerous and write about the Covid patent claim going back to 2015.

I expect it is quite possible to have had foreknowledge enough of the Covid concept to put in writing what a chemical response might be and that is all you need with a date on it....with details to follow.

Its ugly but thats how it works. Smart money have been front loading the patent process for decades.

It's clearly a later addition. The patent is for a system to test for viruses in general, emended later in the description to include viruses "such as COVID-19" not specifically for it. I read the patent as a developing viral detection system expanded opportunistically in May 2020 to encompass the novel virus. No smoking gun I'm sorry.

Regarding WADA/USADA and Olympics Paris 2024, it is typical anglo-amerikkka DOUBLE standards. amerikkka has the most exempted athletes. My impression is that aussies are the 2nd and French is third. (Sorry, I don't have the source though but amerikkka is surely the CHAMPION on the number of exempted athletes.) The golden rule below also applies here.

When amerikkka accuses others for something, the accused may not do what amerikkka says but amerikkka definitely does what it accuses others for to a worse extent.

I am not sure if there is a racial factor in it. But one interesting thing is that not many African amerikkkans are in swimming related events and it is the reverse for amerikkkan track athletes.

If it is amerikkkans doing it in sports, it is called talents and hard work.

If it is Chinese doing it in the originally white-dominated sport events, it is suspicious/presumed for doping until proven otherwise. Look at what an aussie swimming coach said about Pan after he won men's 100m freestyle. Does anyone know that WADA did 200+ testing for Chinese swimming team in the 10 days after they arrived in Paris. It is 5-7 tests per athlete on average.

Look for "purple potato swim team". One may find something interesting about amerikkkan super-duper swimming athletes at Paris 2024.

Given how insane amerikkka has become and keep going down without any limit, it is a reasonable concern for the fairness and safety of any team from amerikkka-designated adversaries for the next Olympics games- 2028 in US and 2032 in Australia....

Oh boy, there are truckloads full of western competitors with such skins.

Summarizing the facts: your beliefs are 'patently' wrong, false and untrue (please excuse the pun).

Rhetorical questions for Norwegian and those misled by him to work out for themselves:
What does the 'patent' actually do?
How does the 'patent' in fact work?
Does the 'patent' really detect the presence of Covid-19 in a patient?

Posted by: Fred | Aug 12 2024 0:28 utc | 59

I looked into the patent. If you look up the previous patents they are more generic. So, I don't think this is a smoking gun for the plandemic. As other commenters mentioned, you would have to look into US bioweapons research to get that, thus not publically available.

Trump Shooter Running On Roof NEW VIEW Police Bodycam
jeffostroff
and shows how Crooks got up on the roof.
"someone on the roof" did come across the Police radios at 6:08pm not long before Trump was shot at.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhjrC1wzJG4

Bit by bit all the 'theories' of the early days, and the unknowns from then are being sorted, dismissed, and clarified by these kinds of new video releases. for example some thought or believed there was a shooter on the water tower - they said this not knowing there was a police car parked at the base of that all the time, and other police had clear views of it up close. Most conspiracy theories arise because of the absence of information and accurate knowledge the whole situation at the time of a major event, and then they can persist forever no matter what other real evidence and information comes out later.

Seems fairly clear so far from what I have seen that some level of 'incompetence or a series of errors' enabled Crooks to be able to get to the buildings and then up on the roof. And is now seems indisputable there was only one shooter as in Crooks and there were two shots by security one of which hit Crooks.

If that was a result of a genuine 'conspiracy' by 'officials or security officers' or simply poor judgement mistakes or incompetence is as yet unknown or unproven at this point. It was clearly a failure but who is exactly responsible for that individually is not known.

I suspect following the USA pattern no one will be held accountable or face any serious charges and it will end up with a - "oh well, mistakes were made, no point worrying about the past, lets look forward." - kind of response.

But for those who will not believe the police and secret service or the video 'evidence' made public to date then anything is still possible and no amount of info or investigation will shift their opinions.

....................
correction - there were two shots by security snipers (secret service and police swat) trying to take out Crooks, one of which hit him. I recommend the jeffostroff channel for best reviews of the information to date. He's very level headed and logical.

btw to call the Police and Secret service on the day as disorganized and uncoordinated with poor leadership would be an understatement. The more I have watched these subsequent videos being evaluated the more obvious that is.

Let's look on the bright side. . .from Stars & Stripes. . .

US Navy’s warship production is in its worst state in 25 years. What’s behind it? . . .The U.S. Navy is struggling to build affordable warships needed to face expanding threats around the world. Among the numerous challenges obstructing its efforts are a serious shortage of skilled workers, poor shipyard employee retention, last-minute design changes and the Pentagon’s shifting priorities. Eric Labs is a longtime naval analyst at the Congressional Budget Office. He says the shipbuilding industry is in its worst state in 25 years. The Navy’s ability to build lower-cost warships that can shoot down Houthi rebel missiles in the Red Sea depends in part on a 25-year-old laborer who previously made parts for garbage trucks. . . .here

De-dollarization brings Peace

In 2025, about 35% of Federal Tax revenue will go towards paying interest on Federal Tax. That’s up from roughly 5% a few short years ago.

Note: 10 year treasury is back up to 3.9%, down from 4.6% last Feb. still highest among industrial economies. China’s 10year is a little over 2%, by way of comparasion of relative risk.

Let's look at the Arctic

The principal naval force in the Arctic, the Russian Northern Fleet – boasting around 25 submarines and approximately twenty surface vessels . .

But the US --

U.S. Coast Guard presence in the Arctic has taken another hit. Icebreaker Healy suffered an engineering compartment fire at the end of July during its annual summer Arctic patrol. It is now returning from its aborted patrol on a single engine in an effort to attempt repairs. The fire reportedly damaged a starboard transformer as a result of which the starboard engine remains inoperable.

The Coast Guard’s other icebreaker, the 50-year old Polar Star, is not available during summer as it is undergoing a service life extension program at the Mare Island Dry Dock in California. . . .here

Guardian headline and sub-header:
** Archbishop of Canterbury warns Christians against membership of far-right groups
Exclusive: Justin Welby condemns violent disorder of recent days as ‘unchristian’ **

Archbishop of Canterbury says ... nothing ... about the Paris Olympic closing ceremony being -- just like the opening ceremony -- blatantly Satanic.

But he already wasn't bothered by Satanism displayed in the "Eurovision Song Contest" ... or tattooed on many of the Azov/Aidar/Kraken soldiers of Kiev-Ukraine. Nor about them looting and burning Christian churches.

Come to that, he wasn't noticeably bothered about IS (a military Israeli + US/UK and Saudi construct) attempts to exterminate the Christians in Syria -- or grateful to Hezbollah for rescuing them.

And was somewhat late in expressing concern about Israel's genocide in Palestine...

Perhaps the Archbishop ought to find a more suitable occupation?

Progressives are growing increasingly angry with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) after “squad” member Rep. Cori Bush’s (D-Mo.) primary loss earlier this week.
Bush was unseated by fellow Democrat Wesley Bell in a primary where AIPAC spent aggressively against her. Just weeks prior, the group poured $15 million in a primary to defeat Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.). Both races taken together, AIPAC invested nearly $24 million to take out two of the most prominent Black members of the left-wing cohort. . . .here

Ben Norton and Michael Hudson explain

https://geopoliticaleconomy.com/2024/08/07/stock-market-crash-financial-crisis-michael-hudson/
As stock market crashes, is US facing new financial crisis? Economist Michael Hudson explains

The stock market crashed on August 5, in a new “Black Monday”. What caused it? Is the USA on the verge of a new financial crisis? Ben Norton is joined by economist Michael Hudson to discuss the extreme volatility.

MICHAEL HUDSON: It’s not so much that we’re in a recession; the whole economy has been shrinking really, since 2008. The idea of a recession is a fantasy created by the National Bureau of Economic Research.....

....Now the economy has reached the very peak of its debt-carrying capacity, and there is no way that it can recover. Every recovery has been weaker, and weaker, and weaker, because the debt that it has come has been sort of like driving a car and stepping on the brake.

....Much of the so-called growth in national income has been financial returns. Interest payments are counted as part of the GDP. Penalty fees are part of GDP. Rising housing prices are counted as part of the GDP. And yet it’s harder and harder for people to buy housing, and they have to pay more and more mortgage debt in order to buy the higher priced housing.

All of this is called the boom, and it’s not a boom at all. It’s impoverishing the real economy of production and consumption. But it has been making money for the financial economy, which is really extractive.....

I cannot imagine it is in any way possible to objectively test for drug contaminants in athletic competitions when a drug is a medicine and such are routine for anyone who needs such in the present day. But I am not an expert by any means as I've stayed away from such help, being afraid to compromise my natural immunity.

I am not training for the Olympics, far from it. In my youth I swam competitively but that was strictly on a local basis. I once swam in an event in which one of our NZ Olympic swimmers was making an appearance. It was a 200 meter race, and she gave the rest of us a full length of the Olympic style pool before joining us, still easily passed us all as if we were standing still. Such athletes deserve respect and ought to be monitored on an individual level rather than by condemning an entire nation's team, which simply punishes everyone, spectators included.

I was watching the closing ceremony at Paris with the sound off - didn't think it was very creative, all black and white with flashing lights. It seemed just a bit scary for the performers and rather a boring (ie limited) linear scenario. Lots of tiny grey figures scrambling about -- hell? Maybe it was the music that was satanic? Sort of like the Santa Fe Opera performance this summer of 'La Traviata' in modern dress, had to be all about the music, not costumery and visual delights. Shock and awe - why the heck would they do that?

But they did. After WW2 I remember a book came out: "Is Paris Burning?" (Hitler's words, apparently.) Well, it didn't then, but maybe now. War is hell, everyone, get it?

Not during the women's marathon, though. That was totally enjoyable. Well done, all marathoners! Paris should always look so peaceful.

The slow dying of American democracy

Posted by: james | Aug 12 2024 15:13 utc | 91

Here's a quote from the article:

Democratic party candidate who could not pass his own party's primary elections without industrial-scale rigging, ended up as the nation's president. Supposedly, he won the largest number of popular votes ever obtained by any candidate.

FYI, Trump got the second largest number of popular votes ever obtained by any candidate. Is that fact also "supposedly" to be doubted?

For those of you unfamiliar with the US voting system, the names and addresses of every person who voted in the 2020 election is a matter of public record. Anybody could go knock on doors and verify if the occupants really voted. You would think if there really are tens of millions of phony votes in 2020 somebody would have identified at least a handful of them by now.

USADA is harassing the Chinese swimmers for some three year old samples, even though they've tested clean since. Meanwhile, the American sprinter Erriyon Knighton who tested for steroids in March gets a pass. And Knighton's explanation for the positive doping test is that he ate contaminated meat, and USADA accepted the explanation by saying that steroids are common in US meat production. Which makes one wonder if there are more doped athletes USADA allows to compete, or is Knighton the only US athlete who eats meat and all others are vegetarians?

I can't say about the meat thing myself since I don't live in the US, but with doped meat that common according to USADA, I'd expect the whole country to be full of buffed athletes.

Also the USADA story about using doped undercover athletes is bogus. Isn't that a job for the police? Or why not use some support staff, like trainers or masseurs? Allowing doped athletes to compete just messes up the sports statistics. And what information did the athletes even contribute with, or did any criminal get caught? These athletes should be disqualified and any prizes won returned.

jinn@97 Beautifully succinct! It is a devastating rebuttal to election denialists.

The refusal to accept common sense consequences of mass falsification of votes such as the impossibility of covering up such evidence in every state and every court, even in Republican states and courts with Republican judges, needs explanation. Aside from the real Trump Derangement Syndrome that worships Trump and therefore deems this an essential dogma of the faith, there are three possibilities? The impossibility of believing that real Americans of the right-wing sort are the vast majority (that is, just like "me,") and therefore Trump couldn't have won? Or the conviction that those kind of people (the woke or Jews or Blacks or Democrats) just aren't real Americans and therefore they shouldn't be counted and therefore counting them is a terrible affront? Or the belief that majority rule is in principle wrong, unjust and a terrible threat to life, liberty and property?

(I reject witless guff claiming every apostate who rejects the dogma is a paid troll or nonhuman. I also reject the notion the majority of MoA commentariate sees this site as a way to troll the social liberals or other infidels outside the confines of the in-group for one reason: Surely everyone knows that MoA is not widely read and you can't satisfyingly troll someone who doesn't even hear you.)

Not lately for me, james, but back in the day, the Santa Fe Opera had programs for families and some operas with children as extras. It's partially open air, a beautiful surrounding, and we used to joke (though it's true) that the New Mexico rainy season was timed to begin with the Opera season.

I believe it's a lot more closed in now than it was back then. My father on a visit enjoyed having to put a newspaper over his head as we sat in the open space in pouring rain through one performance. I can't remember the name of the opera so that shows I'm no expert. All I remember is "Voici Le sabre, le sabre, le sabre; voici le sabre, le sabre de mon pere..." 'The Grande Duchesse of somewhere or other.' Geraldstein, I think maybe, Offenbach? Back in the day when we could all laugh.

Appropriate to France, I guess, is why that comes to mind.
