Vaccine passports will no longer be required in New York City starting March 7, Mayor Eric Adams said Sunday — and he plans on lifting school mask mandates then, too, barring "unforeseen spikes" in COVID cases.

Adams said he plans on following Gov. Kathy Hochul's lead in nixing masks in schools but would make the final determination this Friday. Hizzoner said in a statement:
"At the end of this week, we will evaluate the numbers and make a final announcement on Friday. If we see no unforeseen spikes and our numbers continue to show a low level of risk, New York City will remove the indoor mask mandate for public school children."
But he said starting March 7, patrons at Big Apple restaurants, gyms and indoor venues will no longer be required to show proof of vaccination.
"Additionally, New York City's numbers continue to go down day after day, so, as long as COVID indicators show a low level of risk and we see no surprises this week, on Monday, March 7 we will also lift Key2NYC requirements."
The mayor referred to rules imposed last year by then-Mayor Bill de Blasio requiring proof of vaccination for indoor dining, indoor fitness, indoor entertainment and certain meeting spaces.

The Democratic Socialists of America blamed US and NATO "imperialist expansion" for helping trigger the Russian invasion of Ukraine — provoking criticism from local political leaders. DSA said in a statement:
"DSA reaffirms our call for the US to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict. While the failures of neoliberal order are clear to everyone, the ruling class is trying to build a new world, through a dystopic transition grounded in militarism, imperialism, and war. Socialists have a duty to build an alternative. Much of the next ten years are coming into view through this attack, no war but class war."
The DSA's members who are elected leaders include Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

The Democratic Socialists of America put out a statement placing some blame for the Russia-Ukraine conflict on the United States.

What it's like in Ukraine right now


Doug Casey's Take

What follows is a series of updates from my long-time personal assistant, Katya. She's smart, thoughtful, and totally honest.

Forget the propaganda you see on twitter or Fox/CNN/MSNBC. If you want to know what it's really like to be in the middle of the mess in Ukraine, listen to what Katya has to say:

From Katya in Ukraine:

It is true that the draft decree was issued and men aged 18-60 won't be allowed to leave the country. At the same time there's an opinion that drafting regular untrained people doesn't make sense, it is just for the sake of "doing something".

There are at least three types of Ukrainian "armed forces" right now. One is the regular army, the other is battalions that consist mainly of people with deeply nationalistic ideas, and third one is "territorial defense" groups that were formed over the past few days. Those who sign up for this third group are handed out guns without any checks or registration.

According to some news reports, 18,000 guns were handed out just in Kiev in that manner over the past 24 hours.

Joe Rogan: How can Bill Gates lecture people about health when he has 'man boobs,' a gut, and 'toothpick arms'

Joe Rogan challenged the premise that Bill Gates is a trusted spokesperson on health. In a recent episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," the podcast giant poked fun of the physique of the Microsoft founder, who has regularly dishes out health advice.

A recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience featured author and registered dietician Diana Rodgers and New York Times bestselling author and former research biochemist Rob Wolf.

During a discussion about how there are movements against red meat. Wolf proposed that there are concerted efforts to consolidate who produces food, and asserted that there were some "folks" who want food production to be operated like "software" - meaning some corporation will own intellectual property on certain manmade foods.

Large anti-mandate march takes over major downtown arteries in Ottawa on Saturday

toronto protest
Large crowds gathered to protest mandates on Saturday days after the Ottawa-based Freedom Convoy was dismantled by police.

Protesters marched from Queen's Park to Dundas Square, stopped in front of 299 Queen Street West which houses broadcaster CP24 and circled back to Queen's Park via Spadina Ave northbound.

Among the flags flown were Trump 2024 flags, a common sight that was seen at the convoy in Ottawa.

Comment: CTV News spoke to some of the protestors:
"We're just a group of Canadians looking to end all federal and provincial mandates and we're just going to stand here peacefully and protest," organizer Jerome O'Sullivan said.

"Do things a little differently and make sure we stay within the confines of the law. We're going to walk in every day, set hours maybe 9-5 during the week, but we're not going to be honking or disturbing the peace."
"We want everyone to have freedom of choice and we're worried that is jeopardized, that's why we're here today," Laura Clark said about attending the demonstration with her husband on Saturday.
"We're here because we're really concerned that our kids are going to grow up in an environment where they won't have freedom of choice," Clark said about her attendance at the protest. "We're here for the kids and protecting their future."

One Twitter user pointed out the stark contrast between the way the police responded to the truckers compared to their recent dealings with the protestors for Ukraine.

How the Western Press has for years hidden Ukraine's neo-nazi war on Donbass

Russia on 24 February launched a "special operation" in Donbass aimed at protecting Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics (DPR and LPR), which were recognised as independent entities by Moscow on 21 February. The Western media called the operation "an invasion" they have long warned about.

The "Russia invasion" narrative wasn't the West's "prophecy" but rather a cover-up for a new attempt to return the breakaway Donetsk and Lugansk republics by force to Ukraine, according to George Eliason, an American investigative journalist who lives and works in Donbass. Bringing back Donbass would have paved the way for Ukraine's NATO membership: in accordance with the alliance's rules, a country having territorial disputes cannot be admitted to the bloc.

"First of all, Zelensky ordered the attack during a speech a few weeks ago," Eliason says. "He made it very clear Ukraine's buildup was for that purpose."

Comment: More evidence of the Ukraine clown world. What other outcome could there be, when the government hands out weapons to newly-released criminals?


Law enforcement officers in two Ukrainian towns have been authorized to shoot looters "on the spot," the mayors have announced.

A significant number of looting incidents have been reported across the country since the beginning of Russia's military operation. Zhytomyr's mayor Sergey Sukhomlyn in a Facebook video address mentioned an attempted robbery of a store in one area of the city.

"I am warning everyone: the police, the National Guard, the territorial defense units - they all received orders not to detain, they can just shoot on the spot. There will be no looting in the city," Sukhomlyn said on Sunday.

Comment: To repeat, clown world, and as usual, normal people will bear the brunt of the lunacy.

The US government has a long history of fun and interesting advice when it comes to imminent death...


Now, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, has issued updated guidance to its "Nuclear Explosion" readiness public awareness website, which includes tips to avoid Covid!

Mask for Covid

"A nuclear explosion may occur with or without a few minutes warning," reads the page, which was updated on Friday. "Fallout is most dangerous in the first few hours after the detonation when it is giving off the highest levels of radiation. It takes time for fallout to arrive back to ground level, often more than 15 minutes for areas outside of the immediate blast damage zones.

FEMA recommends the following steps to prevent 'significant radiation exposure,' which include "Try to maintain a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who are not part of your household," and "If possible, wear a mask if you're sheltering with people who are not part of your household."

Flashback Ukraine's right-wing Azov Battalion stages own version of Nazis' 'Cathedral of Light' ceremony

The Ukrainian Azov Battalion, known for its ultra-nationalist sympathies, has staged a memorial service apparently inspired by a ceremony widely used by the German Nazi Party, the 'Lichtdom.'

The 'Lichtdom' or 'Cathedral of Light' involved dozens of anti-aircraft searchlights beaming into the night sky during Nazi rallies in Nuremberg in the 1930s. The Berlin Olympic Games of 1936 used the same effect during its closing ceremony.

Last Saturday, a strikingly similar technique was used by Ukraine's Azov Battalion, which was conducting an annual memorial for its deceased members. During the ceremony held in Urzuf, a small village on the coast of the Azov Sea, dozens of searchlights shone over a row of Azov fighters holding torchlights and round shields with call signs of their perished comrades written on them.

The Ukrainians didn't have access to military-grade lighting equipment like Hitler's men did. However, the parallel was reinforced by the use of the Azov Battalion's emblem - a variant of the Wolfsangel (Wolf's Hook) against the backdrop of the Schwarze Sonne (Black Sun). Both symbols were widely used by the German Nazi Party and are favored by many neo-Nazi groups today.

Who would be surprised to see people shooting at a building while laughing, especially if these very same people have posed with Hitler portraits?

A man dressed in the infamous Ukrainian Azov regiment uniform had a blast delivering heavy machine gun fire at a residential building in Eastern Ukraine.

The purported Azov fighter yelled that he would "hit separatists" and opened fire on a block of flats with a DShK — a heavy machine gun delivering 12.7 mm cartridges.

Comment: Pretty sickening. How will Ukraine ever find peace with these lunatics running around?
