MyPillow CEO and vocal Donald Trump supporter Mike Lindell has attracted backlash and mockery after continuing to deny the results of the 2020 presidential election. He also detailed 'Frank', his upcoming social media platform.

"All the evidence I have, everything is going to go before the Supreme Court," Lindell told Steve Bannon's 'War Room' podcast, "and the election of 2020 is going bye-bye."

After some back and forth, Lindell made a bold promise: "Donald Trump will be back in office in August."

Comment: Regarding that Dominion lawsuit against Lindell. It seems they were rather reluctant to bring it. Something about disclosure maybe?
'Thank you,' says MyPillow's Mike Lindell as he's finally sued by Dominion after months of begging

Dominion Voting Systems has filed a lawsuit against MyPillow CEO and vocal Donald Trump supporter Mike Lindell over his election fraud claims, saying "the lie sells pillows."

Lindell is only the latest person to be legally targeted by Dominion over election fraud conspiracy theories. The company filed suit last month against Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani, accusing him of pushing election conspiracies to "financially enrich himself."

Dominion is now suing Lindell for defamation, seeking $1.3 billion in damages.

"MyPillow's defamatory marketing campaign - with promo codes like 'FightforTrump', '45', 'Proof', and 'QAnon' - has increased MyPillow sales by 30-40 percent and continues duping people into redirecting their election-lie outrage into pillow purchases," the lawsuit claims.

Lindell fired back at the lawsuit and said "it's been cancel culture for MyPillow" as his outspokenness has led to 22 retailers dropping his popular products from their stores.

Lindell has alleged the election was rigged in Joe Biden's favor through Dominion and other voting software systems through not only interviews, but also a two-hour documentary titled Absolute Proof, which aired earlier this month. He was previously booted from Twitter for his refusal to back down on his election fraud beliefs.

"I'm very happy that they finally got that suit filed," Lindell told CNBC of Dominion's lawsuit. He previously invited one from the company multiple times and even to sue them earlier this month "for the American people" as a way to keep the discussion about alleged election fraud going.

"My message to Dominion is thank you for finally getting this done, because it'll be back in the limelight now," Lindell said.

Majority of Americans see cancel culture as threat to freedom in new poll

A majority of Americans see cancel culture as a threat to their freedom and are "concerned" that if they expressed their opinions online they would be banned or fired, according to a new poll.

A new Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll shows 64 percent of respondents believe that there is a "growing cancel culture" threatening their freedom, according to The Hill. Thirty-six percent said they did not view it as a threat to their freedom.

Thirty-six percent of Americans said cancel culture is a "big problem," the poll shows, while 32 percent said it was a "moderate problem," 20 percent deemed it a "small problem," and 13 percent said it is "not a problem."

Comment: There are no signs of this mind virus slowing down. It is filling all the empty vessels, manipulating them in with false outrage that seeks only to assimilate others to also be outraged (usually for minor or imagined threats). The loss of seeing context and seeking to understand is being wiped off the board. Fear and moralistic outrage don't require thought. In fact, they deactivate the critical parts of the mind needed not only to understand but also to connect with others.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will be taking executive action to forbid COVID passports in the State of Florida, it was reported on Monday.

"DeSantis said he will be issuing an executive order forbidding vaccine passports in the state," NBC reported. "The governor is also calling on the Republican-led Legislature to consider a measure addressing 'vaccine passports' but did not give specifics." He said:
"We are not supporting doing any vaccine passports in the state of Florida. It's completely unacceptable for either the government or the private sector to impose upon you the requirement that you show proof of vaccine to just simply be able to participate in normal society."

"You want the fox to guard the henhouse? I mean, give me a break.

"I think this is something that has huge privacy implications. It is not necessary to do. You know, we're going to have hit 3.5 million seniors that have gotten shots sometime this week. Likely 75% of seniors. It's important to be able to do it. But at the same time, we are not going to have you provide proof of this just to be able to live your life normally. And I am going to be taking some action, in the executive function, emergency function here, very shortly."

Comment: DeSantis is one of the few looking out for the many.

Sheep Mentality
A Comedy Of Errors

Throughout lockdown and particularly so recently, I've found it difficult to switch off and enjoy the outdoor things I used to, like cycling.

Last year, I wrote quite a few articles about the continued shutdown and I tend to find writing about it drains my energy. The frustration with other people who can't see what's happening and the worry about where this is leading has been quite stressful. I suppose many of us are in a similar boat and some far worse off. Rather than venture out as much as I used to, recently I've been taking my mind off things in the evening by listening to music and watching old comedy clips.

I recently got into the Beach Boys and was amazed at the composition and complexity of some of their music. The talent and inspiration behind such songs fascinates me.

Similarly, I've been exploring certain comedy acts further and branching into stuff I've never seen or knew existed. Comedy always relaxes and inspires me. This Laurel and Hardy five-minute clip I think is amazing and I often watch it when I want a very short release from the stresses and strains of the day. It has an innocence and charm from a bygone era.

Comment: How sheep 'unsafely' graze is concisely and rather accurately expressed in observations of the societal disaster now unravelling.

An Oklahoma pastor's wife and her lover have been arrested for the murder of her husband after plotting to kill him after they all had a threesome in a hotel.

Kristie Evans, 47, and her lover Kahlil Deamie Square, 26, have been arrested for the murder of her 50-year-old husband, David Evans. David was the pastor at Harmony Free Will Baptist Church in Ada, Oklahoma.

According to police, he and his wife had had at least one threesome with Square at a Super 8 hotel.

Their group romance began several months ago, according to police.

'The three of them, Kristie, Kahlil and David, had a sexual relationship. Kristie and Kahlil also had a separate sexual relationship, just the two of them,' Capt. Beth Green, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, said.

Jeffrey Epstein's alleged madame, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan have charged Ghislaine Maxwell with two additional counts of sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking of a minor. Jeffrey Epstein's alleged madam now faces a total of eight charges for which she could spend the rest of her life in prison.

The latest grand jury was presented with testimony from a fourth accuser, also expanding the time period for the crimes. While in the previous indictment, prosecutors alleged that Maxwell had helped recruit and groom three teenage girls for sex acts with Epstein during the period between 1994 and 1997, they now say that Maxwell and Epstein's conspiracy "continued through in or about 2004."

"Between in or about 2001 and in or about 2004, Epstein and Maxwell recruited Minor Victim- 4 to engage in sex acts with Epstein at the Palm Beach Residence, after which Epstein and, at times, Maxwell provided Minor Victim- 4 with hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter. Minor Victim- 4 truthfully told both Epstein and Maxwell her age," reads the court documents.

The Great Nonsense of "The Great Reset"

great reset
"The Great Reset" is the latest deceptive euphemism for totalitarian socialism that is being promoted by yet another group of wealthy corporate elitists who think they can centrally plan the entire world economy. They are essentially the ideological heirs of Frederick Engels and his intellectual puppet Karl Marx. "The Great Reset" follows in the rhetorical footsteps of such euphemisms for socialism as "economic democracy," "social justice," "liberation theology," "progressivism," "market socialism" (an oxymoron, like "jumbo shrimp" or "military intelligence"), "environmentalism," "fighting climate change," "sustainable development," and "green new deal," to mention just a few.

The main figure of this movement is wealthy German engineer Klaus Schwab, founder of the "World Economic Forum," who champions what he calls "transhumanism," the integration of nanotechnology into the human body so that humans can be controlled remotely by the state.[1] As Ron Paul has noted, "Included in Schwab's proposal for surveillance [of every citizen] is his idea to use brain scans and nanotechnology to predict, and if necessary, prevent, individuals' future behavior . This means that anyone whose brain is 'scanned' could have his . . . [constitutional] rights violated because a government bureaucrat determines the individual is going to commit a crime."[2]

Placed in the hands of politicians, this would create a level of totalitarianism the Soviets could only have dreamed of. In other words, Schwab is reminiscent of that famous twentieth-century German who also fantasized about creating a master race and ruling the world.

Moderna and mRNA vaccine research

While Moderna continues the human-wide, government-promoted and mandated Phase 3 trials of its unprecedented mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine, the company appears to be putting significant effort into advancing its mRNA-based vaccine research inventory.

Here is how Moderna defines mRNA (messenger RNA):
"Messenger RNA, or mRNA, plays a fundamental role in human biology, transferring the instructions stored in DNA to make the proteins required in every living cell. mRNA provides instructions to cells to make protein. Moderna's approach is to use mRNA medicines to instruct a patient's own cells to produce proteins that could prevent, treat, or cure disease. We are also working to advance the development mRNA therapeutics that restore the activity of missing enzymes responsible for various rare diseases, such as methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) and propionic acidemia (PA)."
Messenger RNA vaccines are a completely new line of vaccines. Here is some background information on mRNA vaccines from Harvard Health Blog:

The real reasons why millions of Americans will defy Covid mandates and vaccines

defying covid restricitions
I suspect a large portion of the public is at least partially aware when they are being pushed or lured into a specific way of thinking. We have certainly had enough experience with institutions trying to manage our thoughts over the years. Governments and mainstream media outlets in particular have made the manufacture of public consent their top priority. This is what they spend most of their time, money and energy on. All other issues are secondary.

The media does not objectively report facts and evidence, it spins information to plant an engineered narrative in the minds of its viewers. But the public is not as stupid as they seem to think. This is probably why trust in the media has plunged by 46% in the past ten years, hitting an all time low this year of 27%.

Except for pre-election season spikes, mainstream outlets from CNN to Fox to CBS to MSNBC are facing dismal audience numbers, with only around 2 million to 3 million prime time viewers. There are numerous YouTube commentators with bigger audiences than this. And, if you sift through the debris of MSM videos on YouTube, you'll find low hits and a majority of people that are visiting their channels just to make fun of them.

The MSM is now scrambling to explain their crumbling empire, as well as debating on ways to save it from oblivion. The power of the "Fourth Estate" is a facade, an illusion given form by smoke and mirrors. Bottom line: Nobody (except perhaps extreme leftists) likes the corporate media or activist journalists and propagandists.

WHO claims coronavirus 'very likely' to have passed to humans from bats via 'unknown animal'

March 19, 2020, laboratory scientist Andrea Luquette cultures coronavirus to prepare for testing at U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command at Fort Detrick.
Coronavirus is "very likely" to have first passed from bats to humans via another animal, according to a World Health Organisation report on the origins of Covid-19.

A draft version of the study, which was obtained by the Associated Press, also concludes that it is "extremely unlikely" the virus was leaked from a laboratory in the Chinese city of Wuhan, where Covid-19 first emerged in late 2019.


Comment: Indeed. Because it didn't appear only in Wuhan. However that doesn't discount a laboratory elsewhere, with the US being at the forefront of such experimentation: Chinese Govt: 'Covid-19 began as multiple separate outbreaks globally, we were just the first to report'


It had been claimed that scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) were experimenting with a virus genetically similar to Sars-CoV-2 before it was leaked into the community.

Comment: As numerous other researchers have pointed out, the unusual nature of the coronavirus can only really be explained if the virus was constructed in a laboratory. And so the 'unknown animal' responsible for its appearance in humans was likely the persons in the lab who engineered it; even WHO representatives have admitted as much: Compelling Evidence That SARS-CoV-2 Was Man-Made
