White House attacks Fauci after his dire warning about coronavirus pandemic

As coronavirus infections surge around the country while President Trump claims the nation is "rounding the turn" of the pandemic, the White House is again taking aim at Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, who offered a stark warning in a recent interview of what Americans are facing heading into the winter months.

The White House's attack on Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, came in response to an interview he gave to The Washington Post published Saturday, in which he warned

"all the stars are aligned in the wrong place as you go into the fall and winter season, with people congregating at home indoors. You could not possibly be positioned more poorly."

Fauci told The Post that "we're in for a whole lot of hurt" and offered an assessment of how both Joe Biden and Mr. Trump are approaching the coronavirus crisis — a comparison that came three days before the election.

Comment: Common flu is always more active when the seasons grow colder - the same has happened every year for decades, commonly known as the 'flu season'. Nevertheless, Fauci had a few words for the Prez;

Intentionally or otherwise, Fauci put his thumb on the electoral scale by painting a doomsday picture of the nation's Covid-19 outlook and suggesting the Democrat candidate is more focused on the pandemic than is the Republican incumbent.

Biden has made the virus outbreak the centerpiece of his campaign, repeatedly blaming the president for the nation's Covid-19 death toll, which stands at more than 230,000.

Fauci complained to the Post that Trump is increasingly leaning on medical adviser Scott Atlas for advice on the pandemic.
"I have real problems with that guy. He's a smart guy who's talking about things that I believe he doesn't have any real insight or knowledge or experience in. He keeps talking about things that, when you dissect it out and parse it out, it doesn't make any sense."

White House spokesman Judd Deere blasted Fauci for "choosing three days before an election to play politics," after previously praising Trump's actions:
"As a member of the (White House coronavirus) task force, Dr. Fauci has a duty to express concerns or push for a change in strategy, but he's not done that, instead choosing to criticize the president in the media and make his political leanings known by praising the president's opponent - exactly what the American people have come to expect from the swamp."

Atlas contended in an interview with RT's Going Underground show that Covid-19 lockdowns have been an "epic failure" and are "killing people" without curbing the spread of the virus.

Investigative journalist Jordan Schachtel took to Twitter to criticize Fauci for attacking Atlas:

The president has continued to defy local and state public health guidelines even amid the spike in new cases and his own diagnosis with COVID-19, holding rallies with thousands of maskless attendees packed close together.

Biden, meanwhile, has been holding drive-in rallies, where supporters remain in their vehicles.

It would seem most of those Biden drive-in rally 'attendees' are parked blocks away social distancing their cars. Similarly, Kamala Harris drew a lively crowd of ten in Asheville, NC. Trump, garnering tens of thousands to his rallies, doesn't treat people like they are the disease.

Americans are too willing to bow to authoritarianism and sacrifice their rights for 'the greater good'

Do Americans understand that implication of federally enforced restrictions on our natural rights and freedoms spells the destruction of the western way of life?

There is a moralistic public supposition that lockdowns are the correct and upstanding thing to do. The sentiment is that we all have to make sacrifices for the greater good, and because the new definition of greatest good is making sure no one gets sick from the coronavirus, we have to take drastic measures. But what we're doing by sacrificing our rights on the altar of the greater good is destroying western civilization.

As Americans blame the president for the Covid deaths in the US, they typically say that he should have acted sooner. Contender Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris say this.

Should Trump have invoked a martial law scenario where lockdown measures, social distancing restrictions, and mask wearing were enforced? Do Americans even understand what that looks like? And if they do (they don't), do Americans understand that implication of federally enforced restrictions on our natural rights and freedoms spells the destruction of the western way of life?

Joe Biden's silence on Hunter's emails speaks volumes

Ed Koch never missed an opportunity to tell his side of a story. When a newspaper or television report said something about him he saw as wrong or unfair, the late New York mayor invariably fired off a letter of complaint. The habit was so pronounced that I once asked him why he bothered, especially when the issue was minor. His answer: If you don't object, your silence is assumed to be agreement.

Attention, Joe Biden. This is why your silence in the face of serious allegations of corruption is highly suspicious. It makes you look guilty. If you are innocent, why don't you say so?

As a very strange presidential campaign enters the final days, one of its strangest features is taking center stage. The Democrats' presidential nominee, who has spent most days in his Delaware basement, has not disputed charges that he was secretly involved in his family's business schemes, including while he was vice president.

Doubly strange, Biden also has remained silent about the explosive claim by a former partner in one family venture. Retired Navy Lt. Tony Bobulinski told The Post and others that he met with Joe Biden in 2017 to discuss a partnership with Chinese executives tied to the ruling Communist Party, a deal where Bobulinski says the former vice president is the "big guy" who had a concealed 10 percent stake.

Biden's failure to offer straightforward denials is baffling because the charges are serious enough to help President Trump. Yet even that prospect has not stirred the Biden campaign to action, nor has it deputized surrogates to make denials for him. There is only silence. Instead of a thundering, "NO, Hell NO," we get crickets.

Comment: Whereas Trump has consistently called them out for abuse, distortions and outright lies, MSM has tightly circled its media wagons around Biden, trusting their silence and his win will ensure an unlimited free pass for both.

Trudeau says 'freedom of expression has limits' after French terror attacks

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's response to Islamic terrorist attacks in France has attracted criticism after he said "freedom of expression is not without limits."

Trudeau was commenting on a series of events that have rocked the French nation, after a French teacher was beheaded for showing his students a Charlie Hebdo cartoon which depicted the Prophet Mohammed.

While the French President Emmanuel Macron expressed support for the nation's secularism, Justin Trudeau implied that there was no point in doing things that unnecessarily hurt others.

Trudeau told reporters in French that he would "always defend freedom of expression, but freedom of expression is not without limits."

Trudeau continued by equating the cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed with crying fire in a crowded theatre:

"We don't have the right, for example, to cry fire in a crowded cinema; there are always limits. In a pluralistic, diverse and respectful society like ours, we must be aware of the impact of our words, of our actions on others, particularly these communities and populations who still experience enormous discrimination."

No beer for you! Iconic Berlin political pub blacklists Merkel and cronies for ordering new lockdown

RT

The German officials behind the country's month-long partial lockdown, during which all restaurants will be closed, are no longer welcome at the 'Standige Vertretung,' an iconic Berlin pub catering to the political class.

The owners of the pub voiced their anger over the decision to partially shut down the German economy to slow down the spread of Covid-19. In a video statement on Facebook they said the government has failed to prepare the country for the second wave of the disease, unlike many restaurants, including their own, which have done a lot since April to protect their patrons.

The official numbers say only a small fraction of new infections occurs in restaurants, yet the entire industry, which provides 2.5 million jobs, has been shut down for November, they pleaded.

"It's known that many politicians come to us as guests. Some of those politicians have decided yesterday to shut down catering businesses again, to ban us from doing our jobs. We are adding those politicians to our black list immediately," the co-owners, Jorn Peter Brinkmann and Jan Philipp Bubinger, said.

Austria's Kurz vows to fight 'political Islam' after Turkish teens rampage through Vienna church

Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has said that his government will not tolerate religious extremism after dozens of Turkish youths reportedly stormed through a church in Vienna.

Between 30 and 50 Turkish teenagers are said to have rampaged through the Catholic Church of St. Anton von Padua in Vienna-Favoriten. According to local media reports, the youths shouted "Allahu akbar" as they kicked benches and the church's confessional. The youths scattered after the pastor called the police.

Writing on Twitter about the rowdy flash mob, the Austrian chancellor said that all Christians in the country must be able to "exercise their faith freely and safely."

Disgraced UK Lord claims Trump could start a WAR & pardon himself even after election loss, thankfully few take him seriously

UK viewers mocked and doubted House of Lords member Jeffrey Archer's very energetic and detailed prediction of the US presidential election outcome, where Donald Trump loses, ends up pardoning himself and might declare a war.

Archer went on Good Morning Britain on Monday, assuring viewers that "Biden is going to be president" and "Trump will be flattened." The politician then proclaimed that he had three "even more important" 'foresights' to share about the November 3 election.

"When he's beaten... he remains in power for another eleven weeks," Archer pointed out. The politician noted that, even though, by his estimate, Trump and the Republicans will lose control over Congress, they would still be in control of the government until inauguration day on January 20, 2021.

Comment: A reminder on Jeffrey Archers convictions:

The first charge was that he perverted the course of justice by asking his co-defendant and former friend, Ted Francis, to give him a false alibi.

The second guilty verdict was on a charge that he perverted the course of justice by using a fake diary in the libel trial.

He was found to have perjured himself in an affidavit to the high court for the libel action. He was also found to have perjured himself on oath during the libel trial.

Pollster Nate Silver hedging on Biden win after Trump draws megacrowds in key state Pennsylvania

Last week, pollster Nate Silver was so confident in a Biden win that he suggested the only way Trump is reelected would be through a 'major polling error' or cheating.

This weekend, however, Silver shoehorned a giant caveat into weeks of confidently proclaiming a Biden win: Pennsylvania.

Blaming Moscow for Hunter Biden's laptop is just more 'Russiagate' disinformation

Former intelligence officials, Democratic leaders, and media outlets dismissing the Hunter Biden story as "Russian disinformation" are spreading more Russiagate disinformation, ex-CIA officer Ray McGovern says.

Media outlets are amplifying the claims of former intelligence officials, including John Brennan and James Clapper, as well as of top Democrats, including Joe Biden and Adam Schiff, that the Hunter Biden laptop revelations are "Russian disinformation."

They have done so even though no one from the Biden camp has disputed the authenticity of a single leaked email or document, or denied that the laptop belongs to Hunter Biden. Ray McGovern, a former career CIA officer who served as chief of the CIA's Soviet analysts division and chaired National Intelligence Estimates, discusses the widespread disinformation about "Russian disinformation," and why it raises new questions about the conduct and claims of the intelligence officials behind Russiagate.

Comment: McGovern has clearly lost the plot by voting for Biden as he mentions in the video, but the rest of his analysis holds well.

Comment: Can you believe that after all this time and all the proven lies of Russiagate that have been foisted on the world - that these wanton Deep State crooks are still at it!?

And that the corporate media is still giving them a venue to spout their Big Lies?!

Ridiculous. Incredible. Criminal.

Paramilitary vehicles move to central Minsk as Belarusian capital braces for weekly protest

RT
Sun, 01 Nov 2020 11:23 UTC

The Belarusian opposition will hold its weekly anti-government protest on Sunday. The authorities have mobilized dozens of vehicles, including water cannon, setting the scene for a possible crackdown.

Footage published by Belarusian media on Sunday morning showed columns of trucks and armored vehicles moving towards the center of Minsk. The deployment apparently comes in response to opposition plans to hold their latest rally in the Belarusian capital.

Comment: Further to this, the government is closing borders over supposed surge in Covid-19 cases and has recently detained 300 activists.

But looking beyond these very 'bad optics' and the heavy handed tactics of the embattled president, we see that Belarus has been targeted for, and is resisting, a Western-led regime change operation that seeks to gain a NATO-allied neoliberal foothold in order to further encircle Russia:
