It turns out that the BBC really does believe that God is an Englishman. When the simple impossibility of the official story on the Skripals finally overwhelmed the dramatists, they resorted to Divine Intervention for an explanation - as propagandists have done for millennia.

This particular piece of script from Episode 2 of The Salisbury Poisonings deserves an induction in the Propaganda Hall of Fame:
Porton Down Man: I've got the reports from the Bailey house

Public Health Woman: Tell me, how many hits?

Porton Down Man: It was found in almost every room of the house. Kitchen, bathroom, living room, bedrooms. It was even on the light switches. We found it in the family car too. But his wife and children haven't been affected. I like to think of myself as a man of science, but the only word for that is a miracle.
Well, it certainly would be a miracle that the family lived for a week in the house without touching a light switch. But miracle is not really the "only word for that". Nonsense is a good word. Bullshit is a ruder version. Lie is entirely appropriate in these circumstances.

Comment: This time around, the Chinese authorities have no excuses; like Western govts, they by now KNOW this virus is benign...

Authorities in Beijing have locked down residential compounds and fired officials over a new Covid-19 outbreak, as health officials warned the risk of the outbreak worsening was "very high".

On Monday, authorities announced 49 new cases, 36 of which were linked to the Xinfadi seafood supermarket in Beijing's southern Fengtai district. The wholesale market was closed on Saturday after it was identified as being at the centre of a new cluster of cases.

"The risk of the epidemic spreading is very high, so we should take resolute and decisive measures," Xu Hejian, a spokesman for the Beijing city government, said at a press briefing on Monday. On Sunday he said Beijing had entered "an extraordinary period".

As of Monday, a total of 21 residential communities, housing about 90,000 people, near Xinfadi as well as a second seafood market in Haidian district, where cases linked to Xinfadi were also confirmed, had been closed off. Residents have been ordered to quarantine at home and undergo tests for the virus.

Corbett Report: Rosemary Frei on how the high death rate in Care Homes was created on purpose

Care Home Covid

Comment: This was first introduced by medical journalist, Rosemary Frei, writing for the OffGuardian, May 26, 2020. At the time, Rosemary Frei detailed the horrendous conditions in Care Homes in Ontario (possibly not so dissimilar to other areas around the world), along with the medical procedural and policy steps that helped to make it so. Here James Corbett conducts an excellent interview with Rosemary Frei.

Currently, as families come to grips with the loss of their loved ones from within these Care Homes, they are rightly asking 'who hath done this thing' to their very dear family members - who are also members of society, least we forget. Their questions of accountability are pouring in, including what is being discussed here by Rosemary Frei. Many others have similar stories.

The government-supported media are doubling down, deflecting these horrors back upon Care Home providers singularly, providers who were faced with near-impossible conditions thrust upon them (and obviously they bear responsibility). However, Care Home providers were mandated to follow their Health Ministry 'how to' policies that directed the outcome of this awful and unnecessary human story. This next question becomes; who wrote and demanded that these policies be followed and who (no pun intended) directed their hands in writing said policies?

In response to this carnage of the elderly and infirm, the best that a Canadian leader could come up with was: "It is deeply disturbing." Yes, most normal people would agree with the Prime Minister's statement, albeit for different reasons as they become more aware.

To date, almost all alleged Covid-19 deaths in Canada were from within Care Home facilities while hospitals remained largely empty.

Read the May 26th article by Rosemary Frei for background: Were conditions for high death rates at Care Homes created on purpose?


Rosemary Frei has an M.Sc in molecular biology from a faculty of medicine and was a freelance medical journalist for 22 years. She is now an independent journalist in Canada. In her recent article, "Were conditions for high death rates at Care Homes created on purpose?" she examines how all of the rules and guidelines pertaining to elderly care, death certification and treatment of bodies in Ontario have been changed during the course of this "crisis" in order to increase the numbers reported "dying of COVID." We discuss the reasons behind these changes and what they tell us about the real nature of this pandemic panic.

Comment: Note that Dr. Huyer was made responsible to report to the government back when those horrid Wettlaufer murders took place. As Rosemary Frei reminds, Huyer's report (affidavit) discussed transparency in Care Homes, including investigation responsibilities: 'death investigations'. Thereafter, and as discussed in the above interview, policies Huyer helped create for Covid washed away any transparency. Death became a non-investigation if Covid could be made the claim. Having a runny nose was a claim...

UNHRC joins pile-on against US police's 'systemic racism,' but US military makes police brutality look like amateur hour

The UN Human Rights Council has joined the worldwide protests taking aim at racism and police brutality among US police forces. But where are these voices when the US military kills millions in the Middle East and Africa?

Burkina Faso, speaking on behalf of 54 African nations, requested an urgent debate on "racially motivated human rights violations" - specifically systemic racism and police brutality - in the US, and the UNHRC has agreed to hold the debate on Wednesday. But compared with what US military policy has wrought on the populations of the Middle East and northern Africa, police killings are a blip on the radar.

The UNHRC debate is the latest grand public statement in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis last month, and speaks to a growing disconnect between what has become a laser-focus on US policing and awareness of the much greater harms caused by Washington's foreign policy - harms that are just as racialized, if not more so, but which mysteriously fly under the radars of activist groups.

'Conservative' US Supreme Court advances Democratic agenda with radical transgender, guns & immigration decisions

Comment: And just like that, Trump's 2017 efforts are completely undone...

The Supreme Court has extended employment protections to gay, lesbian and transgender employees, and tossed out landmark border control and gun rights cases, all seen as massive setbacks for US conservatives.

Many Republicans have long held that despite the liberal bias of the media and the left-wing activism dominating the streets, their real power came from their hold over the US judicial branch.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) is one of these Republicans, and was willing to place his political career on the line to hold the late Justice Antonin Scalia's seat open during the last months of the Obama administration, so he could replace Scalia with a suitably right-leaning judge once President Donald Trump took office.

Comment: Some 'dictator'.

The appointment of Gorsuch, some may remember, was the first 'hot potato' issue Trump had to fight for back in 2017.

He got his way, followed by another conservative appointment in Justice Kavanaugh, but it turns out that none of that mattered.

The 'transhumanist', multi-culturalist, anti-tradition ideology has so thoroughly saturated the body politic that a 'conservative' Supreme Court in the US can out-flank even the radically-leftist Democratic Party.

This is all one way traffic now, and there is nothing bar asteroid impacts that can stop it.

Class, not race, divides America

class warfare
Nothing is stranger in these tense days than the monotony of the inexact and non-descriptive mantra of "white privilege" and "white solidarity" — as if there is some monolithic white bloc, or as if class matters not at all.

In truth, the clingers, the deplorables, the irredeemables, and Joe Biden's "dregs" have very little in common with those who so libel them, but superficially share supposedly omnipotent and similar skin color.

In the past, we saw such tensions among so-called whites in CNN's reporting of the allegedly toothless rubes at Trump rallies, in the Strzok-Page text trove about Walmart's smelly patrons, in the callous coastal disregard for the five-decade wasting away of the American industrial heartland, in the permissible elite collective disparagement of Christian evangelicals, and in the anthropological curiosity about and condescension toward such exotic, but presumably backward, Duck Dynasty and NASCAR peoples.

As a result, we have reached the surreal point at which the nation's privileged whites on campuses such as Harvard, Yale, and Stanford, in the top echelon of politics, and the corporate and entertainment worlds, all deplore in the abstract something they call "white privilege" in others who have never really experienced it.

Seattle's anarchist utopia is already breaking down, CHAZ residents call for the guillotine

Protesters collar a street preacher in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), Seattle, Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), June 13, 2020
"An anarchist is someone who doesn't need a cop to make him behave," American anarchist Ammon Hennacy once wrote. Based on the scenes playing out in Seattle's Antifa-occupied 'autonomous zone', Hennacy was dead wrong.

A ragtag collective of Antifa types, anarchists, socialists, and 'Black Lives Matter' activists have occupied a six-block area around an abandoned police precinct in downtown Seattle for a week now. Roads into the 'Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone' (CHAZ) have been blockaded, and the would-be revolutionaries inside have set in motion a bold experiment: to prove that a cop-free society, based on "mutual aid," can sustain itself.

Sunday night seems to have proven otherwise. When the owner of an auto shop in the zone found a man attempting to light his business on fire, he detained the culprit, or so he told a crowd gathered outside. However, rather than let their comrade be handed over to law enforcement, the crowd set about pulling down the fence around the lot, in a bid to free the thwarted arsonist.


"The police won't come," the owner told a cameraman. "The fire department won't even come. This is really bad for business. Covid was bad enough, and now this stuff basically put the icing on the cake."

Anti-Cultural Revolution: Portland protesters topple statue of Thomas Jefferson, father of US Declaration of Independence

A group of demonstrators in Portland has torn down a statue of Thomas Jefferson in front of a school bearing his name, fanning the flames of a growing cultural divide in the US as activists target landmarks deemed racist.

Around 1,000 people gathered at Jefferson High School in Portland, Oregon on Sunday to listen to speeches before setting off on a Black Lives Matter march across the city. Later in the evening, a crowd reconvened at the school and set their sights on a statue of the third US president and principal author of the Declaration of Independence. Two ropes were tied around the statue's neck as the group labored to pull Jefferson off his pedestal - which had already been defaced with graffiti reading "slave owner."

Videos show the group tugging on the ropes, eventually sending the statue falling onto the concrete steps in front of the school.

Comment: As the Left's "cancel culture" has proven, it does not matter how much good a person has done, past or present. If they represent traditional Western culture and society and have done even one "bad thing," they will attack. Today's version of totalitarianism isn't in the form of a soldier's boot on our throats, but rather a bunch of Karens scolding people and destroying anything that they don't like. Be careful if they are able to get a hold of any real political power.

As the Left now controls every lever of power, we face nothing less than Regime Change

boarding up of Winston Churchill's statue

The boarding up of Winston Churchill's statue in Parliament Square was act of appeasement if ever there truly was one.
As the Left now controls every lever of power, we face nothing less than Regime Change

What we now face is regime change. That is why these strange crowds have begun to gather round ancient and forgotten monuments, demanding their removal and destruction.

They do not know what they want, or understand what they are destroying. But that no longer matters. They think their moment has come, and they may well be right.

This is why the memorial to Winston Churchill, and the Cenotaph itself, were shamefully boarded up on Thursday night - an act of appeasement if ever there truly was one.

That is why police chiefs kneel like conquered slaves to the new gods of woke, and the leaders of the Labour Party do likewise. I have seen it happen before, but only when things were moving in the opposite direction.

What does Black Lives Matter really stand for?

blm black lives matter
For those who may be equivocating about Black Lives Matter and the Antifa riots and demonstrations, a very interesting point came to our attention today. Someone went and actually looked and read the BLM website to find out what they themselves say they are all about. My priest was told about this, and he told me, so I went and had a look, myself.

What follows is taken directly from this page: https://blacklivesmatter.com/what-we-believe/

It is important to actually inform the public about this group, taken from their own statements about themselves, and then make your own decisions as to whether or not this is a group you want to actually trust or support in any way. One thing is clear - this group is not about stopping racism. After their self-description will come some further comment.

Comment: Perhaps it is better to say that "stopping racism" is not BLM's primary aim. It is sandwiched between a host of other ideological aims having nothing to do with the core message implied by their name. But that's what all ideological movements do. Ordinary members and casual supporters may not even be aware of it, and that's the point. The true aims are piggybacked on the public face and slogans. Revolutionaries are smart that way. And most people don't know what has hit them after the movement tastes success: more often than not that means purges, and a further pathological deviation of the goals and methods of the movement in question. Best option: avoid ideological movements altogether. Inoculate yourself.
