Nancy Pelosi: Time to put it down
Democrats can see the red wave coming and it appears one of the biggest names in the party may be calling it quits.

Human Events Senior Editor Jack Posobiec said on Tuesday, as a red wave swept the nation, that House Speaker and California Rep. Nancy Pelosi is telling people she is heading to retirement.

"Hearing Pelosi is telling people she is not running for re-election tonight. Doesn't want to be tied to 2022," he said.

Bad Guys

Mark Zuckerberg accuses whistleblowers and media of plotting against Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg angrily fired back at a torrent of bad press on Monday, accusing whistleblowers and reporters of plotting against the company as it posted better-than-expected quarterly profits.

"My view is that what we are seeing is a coordinated effort to selectively use leaked documents to paint a false picture of our company," Zuckerberg said in a Monday call with investors.

Zuckerberg was fighting back against recent news reports on Facebook struggling to crack down on human trafficking, doing little to address hate speech and making mental health issues worse for teen girls.

Whistleblower Frances Haugen and other critics have argued that the company let these issues fester as they prioritized growth — an idea Zuckerberg rejected.

Comment: It would seem pretty unlikely at this point that Facebook would be broken up as a result of being a monopoly. It serves too great a purpose in censorship and driving official narratives coming from overt sources like the White House. All this pressure is most likely just made to keep Facebook in line and under thumb.


Stock Down

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell
Disclosure documents reveal that the spectacle of Fed officials personally trading stocks extended to the chair himself.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell sold between $1 million and $5 million worth of stock from his personal account on October 1, 2020, according to disclosure forms reviewed by the Prospect. Powell's sale of shares from a Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund has not been previously reported. This sale occurred right before the Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered a significant drop.

A Fed media relations spokesperson was not available for comment. We will report on any Fed statement on Powell's trades.

Three other senior Fed officials have faced serious criticism for making stock trades during the pandemic. Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan and Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren were compelled to take early retirements as a result of the disclosure of their trades. Fed Vice Chair Richard Clarida also came under fire for stock trading. The other trades are now the subject of investigations by the Fed's own inspector general and the SEC.

Comment: Sooooo . . . . what you're saying is, the Fed Chair engaged in massive insider trading, and nobody's even blinked. Apparently Trump had Powell's number but was unable to neutralize him:

Bill Gates and the Uncertain Future of Food Security

gates gothic
As we approach a winter of discontent and Global food systems go from bad to worse, there's trouble in paradise.

At the root of these problems, Government responses to COVID-19 have contributed to a six-fold increase in famine-like conditions as global supply chains collapse, and field trials for gene-edited crops and farm animals begin in the UK.

Against this perfect storm, the UN's World Food Systems Summit convened last month, with Member States joining the private sector, civil society groups and researchers, to bring about "tangible, positive changes" to the world's food systems, and as the story goes, "drive recovery from COVID-19."

But even if we could solve our problems using the same logic that created them, there are deeper, institutional problems undermining the integrity of the Summit.

Specifically, its corporate capture by one man, whose vision of the future of food security places the interests of civil society and farming communities in a different universe to the corporations he is beholden to.

A household name on the world stage of disaster-capitalism, there is more to Bill Gates than doomsayer-general terrorising the world's population into a permanent state of suspended animation, and it typically involves the future of food security.

Greek anti-vaxxers bribe doctors for "vaccination" with water, end up with the real vaccine anyway

vaccine syringe vaccine covid

Real or placebo?
Mass fake vaccinations have been taking place in dozens of vaccination centers throughout Greece, media reported on Sunday. The bribe fee for doctors and nurses is apparently 400 euros. the fee is paid is by those who do not want to receive the vaccines against Covid-19 but want to gain access to several activities or simply avoid the twice per week rapid tests for professional and other reasons.

But then a hilarious thing happened: Doctors pocketed the bribe but administered real vaccine and not "water" in order to avoid getting into trouble should the fake vaccination come out, according to a report by Mega TV.

According to newspaper tovima, some 100 to 200 vaccination centers out of 2,000 in total and the participation of some 200-300 doctors and nurses have been involved in such fake vaccinations and/or in efforts to alter the vaccination data. It estimated that over 100,000 citizens have obtained fake vaccination certificates through illegal methods.

Comment: Greece has seen its share of lockdown tyranny and subsequent protests

Climate doom pantomime at Glasgow

Think of Glasgow as a costume party for the Uber rich and it all makes sense.

Everyone gets to hobnob, dress up in a Superhero prophet-of-doom outfit and pretend to save the world.

When the richest people in the world turn up, with PM's and Presidents, and even the Royals do live photo tweets — you know the dry UN science conference has turned into the unmissable Olympics of Social Events. Just being there is the fashion statement of the year.

The deals (or spin, such it is) is mostly done. The party is the reward. The World Stage beckons for politicians seeking to look important. While the offer of another glorious junket keeps the minor minions working hard all year.


And any fence-sitting politicians might be awed and swept away in the spur of the moment to offer more than they might have in the cold light of day. (Send them your barbs!)

Iran has confirmed that its Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps has foiled an attempt by American forces to intercept an oil tanker, and that the vessel is now back in Iranian waters.

Iran has confirmed reports that the US had seized its tanker and transferred oil to another vessel, which was then taken to an "unknown place."

The government said the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) had taken control of the Iranian tanker in an operation using helicopters. It was then returned to Iranian waters.

"Sinister": Gov't scapegoating unvaccinated, dividing society, Irish MP declares during debate over extension of 'emergency' powers

Verona Murphy

FILE PHOTO: Verona Murphy accused the Government of scapegoating the unvaccinated
The Minister for Health has accused Independent TD Verona Murphy of spreading anti-vax information in the Dáil.

During a debate on the extension of Covid-19 emergency powers, the Wexford TD said that recent studies had shown that a vaccinated person "is every bit as likely to transmit this virus as a non-vaccinated person".

Ms Murphy accused the Government of scapegoating the unvaccinated and dividing society unnecessarily.

Comment: Antigen testing would defeat the establishments globally coordinated agenda of coercing as many people as possible into suffering the experimental injections. Because antigen testing would show that a great many who have recovered from Covid already, have superior, natural immunity, and have absolutely no need for the jabs: RNA Vaccines, Obedience and Eugenics

Miss Murphy's high profile condemnation of the dystopian agenda is but one in increasing number from politicians, experts, and injection injury victims, from all around the world:

A final stand against Donald Trump, or Republicans' finest hour? Why Virginia's election is a referendum on America's future

The race for the governorship of the Old Dominion state was supposed to be a shoo-in for the Democrats, but it's now neck-and-neck, with some predicting a Republican victory which would have huge ramifications for Joe Biden.

Virginia's six million voters will go to the polls tomorrow to elect a new governor. This local election has taken on national importance, however, as it is seen as the first real test of President Joe Biden and his administration's agenda. In normal times, this election should have been a comfortable victory for the Democrats.

Virginia is traditionally a solidly Democratic state. In last year's presidential election, Virginians voted for Joe Biden by 54% to Donald Trump's 44%. The state even voted in favour of Hillary Clinton in 2016. The state assembly is controlled by the Democrats, the majority of its House representatives are Democrats, as are its two senators, and the party has held the governorship since 2014.

Comment: As was stated, Youngkin actually did win the election, which makes all the above points even more pertinent. It's rather unlikely, however, that entrenched liberal powers will take this as 'a message to the White House' in any way shape or form.

Why Fauci and the global cabal insist your children be injected for 'protection' against a disease that poses no threat to their health

Fauci
Ronald Reagan once said, "Don't be afraid to see what you see."

He made the statement in his farewell address on Jan. 11, 1989. He was giving advice on how U.S. foreign policy should view the former Soviet Union as it tried to shed its image as a brutal totalitarian society.

What Reagan was trying to say is that if it still looks like communism, then it probably is. Don't pay attention to what they call it. Pay attention to how it looks, how it feels to those living under the regime.

Freedom-loving citizens of America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Israel and Canada would do well to heed Reagan's advice and apply it today.

The label on the political party in power may say "Democrat" or "Republican" but what's happening all around you? If you see friends and relatives in what's supposed to be a free society being fired from their jobs - critical jobs like nurses, doctors, firefighters, cops, soldiers and truck drivers - because they won't concede to having an unknown experimental substance injected into their bodies, then you should not hesitate to take this at face value.

Don't brush it aside as some temporary anomaly.
