Vitamin D to be delivered free to care homes as lockdown leads to increased deficiency

vitamin

Free deliveries of vitamin D will begin in January
There are fears that as a result of lockdowns triggered by the pandemic, many people may be at a higher risk of deficiency.

Free vitamin D deliveries will be offered to around 2.7 million vulnerable people by the government, officials have said.

Vitamin D is necessary for immune system health, leading experts to question whether it may help reduce the risk or severity of the coronavirus.


Comment: It's considered necessary and yet it has taken the government this long to start prescribing it during what they claim is a deadly pandemic?


Care homes across England will be sent the supplement automatically for their residents, in plans revealed on Saturday.

Comment: As noted by one Tweeter, disastrously wrong dietary guidelines mandated by the government, as well as the appalling quality of food served to the country's vulnerable, are also partly to blame for a lack of vitamin D:


It's likely that the above supplementation will not be sufficient and it certainly won't make up for the very real, and possibly more important, psychological and physiological impact of being locked up and deprived of human contact for nearly a year: Everything You Think You Know About Coronavirus...

A pub in Staten Island, New York, established itself as an "autonomous zone" in defiance of Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's COVID-19 edicts.

"!ATTENTION! We hereby declare this establishment an !!!AUTONOMOUS ZONE!!!" signs proclaimed outside Mac's Public House in Grant City, according to the New York Post. "We refuse to abide by any rules and regulations put forth by the Mayor of NYC and Governor of NY State."

The signs referenced last summer's short-lived anarchist settlement in Seattle, Washington, which fizzled when law enforcement disbanded them.

Michigan witness: I saw the Detroit plan to destroy all provisional ballots, hurt Republicans

adam de angeli

Whistleblower from #DetroitLeaks comes forward
Michigan activist Adam de Angeli has come forward to disclose that he was the whistleblower behind #DetroitLeaks, that showed the plan to make the steal.

The #DetroitLeaks series suggests that there was an official plan all along to commit voter fraud and cover it up.

#DetroitLeaks was a series of articles published at Big League Politics by intrepid journalist Shane Trejo that showed Detroit training poll workers on how to cover-up voter fraud, destroy ballots from people they didn't like, and use COVID as a bad faith excuse to keep Republicans away.

"These people were vicious - I saw all kinds of illegal behavior" - Michigan election witness who saw 4 AM illegal ballot drop for Biden speaks out
Ben Wetmore; November 29, 2020 at 8:10am

Andrew Sitto, Republican poll challenger at the TCF Center in Detroit, saw poll workers filling out votes for the Democrats on election night!

Official Detroit poll workers stole votes by marking non-Biden votes for Biden, Sitto says.

"I saw all types of illegal behavior."

SITTO ALSO SAW THE 4AM BIDEN BALLOT DROP!

He describes 4am ballots being brought to the counting tables and spread out.

They would run the same ballots through the tabulators multiple times, "we were told to look for this" Sitto says. When they went through a second time, they were committing voter fraud according to Sitto.

Other witnesses have described the ballot duplication process, and thousands of spare ballots laying around with an official duplication process at the TCF Center.

Explosively, Sitto says: "I didn't see any ballots with legitimate reasons to be duplicated. Every ballot was normal" when it came in.

"The whole thing is illegal. The whole night was illegal."

Sitto believes he and another poll challenger saw blatant voter fraud at one of the duplication tables, where poll workers are supposed to copy votes precisely from damaged ballots onto new ones. He saw the poll workers duplicating a mixed-ticket ballot while a group of Democrat operatives distracted and forced the Republican poll challenger away from the table. "The moment [the Republican poll challenger] looked away, they filled in the Democrat ticket."

Sitto personally saw voter fraud in favor of Joe Biden in Detroit.

Sitto also described seeing poll workers running the same stacks of ballots multiple times though a tabulator. He also said poll workers grabbed handfuls of empty ballots and hid them at their tables. All poll workers had pens, which he believes could have been used to illegally fill out the blank ballots.

"I saw them taking empty ballots that should only be used for duplicates, stashing them and probably voting them later straight-ticket for Joe Biden."

Sitto described pens at most tables, and poll workers regularly grabbing duplicate ballots for no valid reason. The pens would be necessary if they were manually filling out ballots at the counting tables.

"These people were vicious."

"I've made reports about this" Sitto says, though there's no indication if any official has pursued Sitto's claims of witnessed voter fraud.

Voter fraud is the "illegal interference with the process of an election" and Sitto is in a long line of other witnesses who have said they personally witnessed illegal interference in the process of Detroit's elections.

Describing the official Detroit officials conspiring with left-wing poll workers to fraud the vote: "It was a collective attack."

When the exhausted Republican poll challengers took a break on Wednesday, Sitto said the Michigan state government notified the TCF personnel that COVID-related occupancy restrictions would now be enforced on the facility. As a result, he and other Republican poll challengers were locked out at a crucial moment, and he witnessed security coming in and the windows being covered up.

"They counted the military ballots in the most secret way they could," he said.

However, Sitto noticed that some people were allowed back in during that time. "The Dems and the media were welcomed in," he said.

"There were two systems. There was their system and our system. Their system was very open and welcoming to their people. And our system was 'Fall in line. Follow the rules. COVID restrictions.'"

Matching other statements, Sitto described that his challenges to illegal ballots were ignored.

"They would just continue on."

If Sitto's account is accurate, it could explain the numerous eyewitness accounts of the Democrats harassing, stalking, and intimidating Republican volunteers, effectively obstructing them from viewing the counting and duplication operations.

Sitto also described that, as a Republican, he and his family requested absentee ballots and never received them.

A police check point in Kilgetty, Wales, Britain October 24, 2020.
Welsh police have nabbed a couple trying to take Christmas presents to relatives in Cardiff, sparking accusations that the enforcement of "draconian" Covid-19 measures has taken precedence over more pressing public safety issues.

The 'gift-smugglers' were turned away after travelling from Essex to drop off packages for their family in the Welsh capital, South Wales Police said, claiming that the culprits had violated recently-implemented Covid-19 legislation. Police did not disclose whether the pair were fined or faced other punishment for their apparent misdeed.

The couple were stopped as part of 110 random vehicle checks carried out in Cardiff over the past 24 hours, as part of a temporary measure aimed at ensuring that outside visitors were not engaging in any 'non-essential' travel. Twelve people have been slapped with fines and 15 others have received warnings since the new policing power was implemented on Friday. The searches will end in the late afternoon on November 29.

Candace Owens celebrates win against 'communist' censors as Facebook fact-checkers forced to remove 'correction' to Biden post

Conservative commentator Candace Owens is celebrating forcing PolitiFact, a third-party fact-checker for Facebook, to issue a correction to a previous 'fact-check' of her post stating Joe Biden is not technically president-elect.

"Weeks ago, Facebook censored a post of mine which truthfully stated that Joe Biden is NOT the President-elect," Owens tweeted on Saturday.

After PolitiFact, which works with Facebook to police misinformation on the social media platform, 'corrected' her original post - a video explaining Biden is not the official president-elect until all state votes have been certified and Trump's various lawsuits have played out - Owens said she got lawyers involved, and PolitiFact ultimately issued a correction to their original post.

"Correction: PolitiFact originally labeled this video false in our capacity as a third-party fact-checker for Facebook. On Nov. 20, an appeal to that decision was made on behalf of Ms. Owens," PolitiFact posted to Facebook. "PolitiFact approved the appeal on Nov. 20, determined that a correction was appropriate, and removed the false rating."

Breaking the social contract: Government wages war on the people.

war on people
We the people, are at war with our government/s, whether individuals comprehend it or not.

It is the inescapable conclusion after months of increasingly irrational and authoritarian policies steam rolled out, allegedly, in response to Covid19. Inescapable because, there is now a profusion of expert opinion and testimony that we are being lied to, and the Corona fraud is being used to further the malicious agenda of the World Economic Forum, who gleefully acknowledge Covid19 as being the catalyst for acceleration of their scheme.

Government's globally have viciously shredded the social contract, and systematically lay waste to the lives of millions of their constituents. It is patently not an act of incompetence, but a deliberate, treasonous act of societal immolation. Cynically sacrificing the lower and middle classes, to the religion of the World Economic Forum's Great Reset agenda. And they won't stop there.

Despite the calamitous predictions again proving unfounded, Daily Mail has revealed, plans for more testing, tiered lockdowns, vaccinations and a "freedom" pass.

Don't believe messages about 'olive branches' and 'moving forward' from anti-Trump celebs & pols - they're as hateful as ever

Milano and Biden

Alyssa Milano is the latest celeb to offer an "olive branch" to Trump backers after calling them racist in the past. Less than 48 hours later, she was back to her venomous rhetoric, proving calls for unity are just lip service.

"I'd like to extend an olive branch to Trump supporters," Milano tweeted this week. "I am ready to move #ForwardTogether. There's so much work to do to heal the nation. Let's be a part of the solution and not add to the problems we face."

The actress-turned-Democrat-activist called for other liberals to join her in this supposed call for unity, and reading the replies it's pretty clear a Joe Biden victory is going to do nothing to solve the bitter divisions in this country.


2 + 2 = 4

It's in the code: Hanky-panky in Virginia's votes

Based on Internet blogger "Pede's" analysis of "votes switched" from Trump to Biden, and of "votes lost" (thrown away) -- mostly votes for Trump, and my own analyses to detect imaginary "votes added" for Biden, I have decided to continue examining states where everylegalvote.com says ballot fraud occurred in the 2020 presidential election.

"Pede" identified two states -- Virginia and Minnesota -- where there were hundreds of thousands of "votes lost," a sure indicator of fraud, even though those states' votes are not being recounted, nor are there legal challenges. Additionally, AT's Andrea Widburg, on November 16 in "There may have been massive voter fraud in Virginia", noted strange happenings in the vote totals and allocations in the wee hours of November 4. I have read the JSON code provided by the New York Times (see below), and I concur.
nyt data
Translating the code in the graphic above, we see that at 11:03 PM EST on November 3, total votes were 2,724,165, and Trump had 1,419,290 votes (52.1%), Biden had 1.258,564 votes (46.2%), other candidates had 46,311 votes (1.4%).


Comment: Warning. A lot of internet sleuths - including the pede linked to above - are using the NYT to come up with precise vote counts, but these numbers can be misleading, as Nick points out below. The NYT data only gives a percentage (with three digits) and a total vote count. So each candidate total must be calculated using the percentage. But these should be displayed as a range of numbers. Because of rounding, 52.1% can mean any percentage from 52.05% to 52.14999%. Most if not all "lost votes" can be explained by this. (See this guy's demonstration, for example.) But with that in mind, keep reading, because Nick has found something else.


Between 11:14 and 11:42 came a big Biden vote dump. At 11:43, when the dump had ended, total votes were 3,368,181, and Trump had 1,512,627 votes (45.8%) and Biden had 1,771,663 votes (52.6%). During this half-hour period when the fraudsters switched the lead from Trump to Biden, Trump gained 93,337 votes (a 6.58% increase), and Biden gained 513,099 votes (a 40.77% increase). That is, there were about 5.5 Biden votes for every Trump vote during this interval.

Comment: At the very least, this shows that data was being 'updated' and changed in real time in ways that don't make immediate sense. It is up to the vote machine companies to now explain just what was going on and to account for these 'glitches'. But we can't just take their word for it. They must provide original logs of all data that then made its way to the NYT feeds. If they can't - if that data is missing, corrupted, or anything less than fully transparent - that suggests they have a lot to hide.

Reasons Why The 2020 Presidential Election is Deeply Puzzling

Ballots are recounted in Gwinnett County, Georgia
To say out-loud that you find the results of the 2020 presidential election odd is to invite derision. You must be a crank or a conspiracy theorist. Mark me down as a crank, then. I am a pollster and I find this election to be deeply puzzling. I also think that the Trump campaign is still well within its rights to contest the tabulations. Something very strange happened in America's democracy in the early hours of Wednesday November 4 and the days that followed. It's reasonable for a lot of Americans to want to find out exactly what.

First, consider some facts. President Trump received more votes than any previous incumbent seeking reelection. He got 11 million more votes than in 2016, the third largest rise in support ever for an incumbent. By way of comparison, President Obama was comfortably reelected in 2012 with 3.5 million fewer votes than he received in 2008.

Trump's vote increased so much because, according to exit polls, he performed far better with many key demographic groups. Ninety-five percent of Republicans voted for him. He did extraordinarily well with rural male working-class whites.

He earned the highest share of all minority votes for a Republican since 1960. Trump grew his support among black voters by 50 percent over 2016. Nationally, Joe Biden's black support fell well below 90 percent, the level below which Democratic presidential candidates usually lose.

Trump increased his share of the national Hispanic vote to 35 percent. With 60 percent or less of the national Hispanic vote, it is arithmetically impossible for a Democratic presidential candidate to win Florida, Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico. Bellwether states swung further in Trump's direction than in 2016. Florida, Ohio and Iowa each defied America's media polls with huge wins for Trump. Since 1852, only Richard Nixon has lost the electoral college after winning this trio, and that 1960 defeat to John F. Kennedy is still the subject of great suspicion.

Comment: Speaking of Georgia, registered Democrat and former Oregon state elections official Rick Hanson's comments are worth reading. From his Twitter thread:
I've finished reviewing the Georgia filing and I have a few comments to share with the socialverse in my capacity as a 30-year registered Democrat, former Oregon state elections official (with policy and admin experience), and former CIO.

I will not comment on the legal claims because, while I have familiarity with the law and court filings, I'm not a lawyer. I am also going to mostly stay away from alleged behaviors, too, as I wasn't there and, anyway, they add color but are more open to dispute.

The original intent of the software code (acc'd to affidavits) was to manipulate votes without detection. When you start with one goal in mind, it's tough to pivot to the opposite goal later — no matter how hard you might try. Not that it seems anyone tried... Absence of secure audit log (to record every action in the software) is so indefensible that I LOL'd when I read it. This fact alone should be enough to negate the results when there is ANY question about fraud because it cannot be proven that fraud DIDN'T occur Elections administration.

Lawsuit alleges that many procedures required in state law — for good, common sense reasons to ensure the one voter, one ballot rule is adhered to — were not followed, including Receipt of absentee ballots in their return envelopes was not recorded (this reduces risk of ballot box stuffing, i.e., to ensure that only one real ballot has been submitted by one real voter). Signatures were not verified against voter registration on return envelopes (same reason as 6, above). There might be missing envelopes, too; it wasn't clear to me in my reading or I missed it. Ballot processing is not allowed before Election Day in Georgia (this varies by state); in this election, by rule inconsistent with state law, Secretary of State Raffensperger allowed counties to start 3 weeks early. Absent a rigid accountability processes, this risks double or counterfeit voting.

Conducting one election with INTEGRITY is hard enough; when you overlay what is, in effect, a 2nd election (by mail) that has to be reconciled with what happens at the polls ... this is very high risk this "2 concurrent elections" risk was a primary argument for all elections being conducted by mail in Oregon, which was adopted after 20 years of practice with dual polling/mail elections — practice that none of these states whose elections are in question have had Observers were not allowed during the original count or the recount. There is no defense for this and intrinsically implies that elections officials had something to hide. There are other things to pick on, but these I cannot think of a way to defend and probably are sufficient to meet the apparent (according to the lawsuit) standard of "preponderance of the evidence" to "doubt the result." Eager to read defendants' response!

Emergency WI lawsuit identifies over 150k potentially fraudulent ballots, more than enough to call election into question - FBI requests data

wisconsin votes
Joe Biden allegedly got 20,608 more votes than Donald Trump in Wisconsin in the November election.

This afternoon, the Milwaukee County Election Commission completed its recount Friday evening, Nov. 27.

The results showed that Joe Biden's vote count increased by 257 votes, for a revised total of 317,527, and Donald Trump's vote count increased by 125 votes, for a revised total of 134,482.

Phil Kline, director of The Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society who has filed an emergency lawsuit in the state of Wisconsin, challenging the election results, claims that nearly 160,000 of those ballots were potentially fraudulent. Kline told CBS58 that the recount won't catch the voter fraud adding, "The recount just validates the fraud."

CBS 58 - The Amistad Project announced Tuesday, Nov. 24, they filed an emergency petition with the Wisconsin Supreme Court challenging the state's unofficial results in the 2020 presidential election, which gave Democrat candidate Joe Biden a margin of just 20,000 votes over Republican candidate Donald Trump.

"We have identified over 150,000 potentially fraudulent ballots in Wisconsin, more than enough to call into question the validity of the state's reported election results," said Phill Kline, director of The Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society in a news release. "Moreover, these discrepancies were a direct result of Wisconsin election officials' willful violation of state law."

Comment: Some interesting updates from Kline's Twitter page. The FBI has contacted the Amistad Project, and Matt Braynard, who supplied the data:





Another lawsuit filed Friday asks the WI Supreme Court to block certification because ballot drop boxes were illegal:
The suit says over 500 ballot drop boxes were installed in 72 counties in the state in violation of the law, arguing the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) did not have the authority to approve their use. The commission's endorsement of drop-box use amounted to enacting a new elections law, the suit argues, noting that the U.S. Constitution accords such power only to Congress or state legislatures.

"By doing so, the WEC gave the newly created voting process of using ballot drop-boxes, the imprimatur of legality," the suit states. "But these ballot drop-boxes are part of a procedure and process that was never created through legislation by the Wisconsin legislature. By leaving election officials in all Wisconsin Counties the impression that the use of ballot drop-boxes was legal, members of the WEC violated Wisconsin election laws and encouraged county clerks to do so, also," it added.

Further, the lawsuit argued there may have been "one-sided partisan teams retrieving un-mailed and un-postmarked ballots from illegally placed ballot drop-boxes," which combined with "an alleged gross 'relaxation' of Wisconsin voter ID laws" undercut election integrity and was "a recipe for voter fraud."

"With all of these allegations and facts considered together, there is now a cloud of suspicion over the whole election process in Wisconsin," the suit argued, and called on the Supreme Court to reject all ballots submitted through drop-boxes.

However, identification of ballots cast via drop boxes may not be possible, with Urban Milwaukee reporting that Milwaukee Election Commission Executive Director Claire Woodall-Vogg said on several occasions ahead of the election that clerks had no way to mark ballots returned through drop boxes. It is unclear how many ballots were cast via drop-box in Wisconsin.

Hinting at the likely impossibility of identifying ballots returned via drop-box, the suit noted: "If the drop-box ballots were not segregated so that they could be identified to a legal certainty and removed, then the Petitioner asks the Wisconsin Supreme Court to nullify the results of this whole election in Wisconsin and notify that the legislature that it must choose 10 Electors" who would cast presidential votes.
Wisconsin just completed its recount. They came up with pretty much the same results, which isn't surprising given that the recount was just as fraudulent as the original count:

But there are rumors that the GOP observers flagged many potentially fraudulent votes during the recount. Gateway Pundit posted this, for example:
According to our source on the ground: More than 2,000 fake votes were found at the Wisconsin Recount in Dane County on Friday!
* On Black Friday, there were so many Trump observers that two dozen of them had nowhere to sit, and had to back upstairs and watch on closed circuit TV.

* Thousands of fake votes were found!
The signature "MLW" was used on the the fake votes. These initials were found on thousands of "votes" by "indefinitely confined" people.
