Here's a pretty interesting report on the Covid-19 discrepancies that magically came into place in March2020. It's a fantastic read if you're into facts and science. If not, just keep wearing your mask.

Covid-19 Data Collection, Comorbidity, & Federal Law

Forgive me if you already saw it since it was published in Oct2020.

CDC changed rules on documenting deaths where Covid was present or assumed to have been present so that Covid-19 was documented as the primary cause.
Using the CDC and OBD Data Collection law standards in place since 2003 (but ended in March 2020), the 161K "COVID-19 deaths" (as of Sept2020) would have been more like 9,684 deaths where Covid was the only cause.

Overall, that's actually pretty good advice, as compared to what most people consider to be 'doing research.' Eg: reading a blog written by someone with an obvious profit-motive who tells you that various things which are not bad, are bad, and also part of a conspiracy.




Anyway, how to get fired in Hollywood: Publicly say something which casts a light on cancel-culture, such as the following:
.
“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors … even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”
.

Yeah... Disney don't like that. It's only ok to compare Republicans to Nazis. It's not ok to compare people who are actually being fascists to Nazis.

From what little I've listed to the live feed thus far, it seems that the chief persecutor for this one was actually in class the day they taught that presenting factual evidence is often beneficial in mounting a case at trial.

Persecutor / Prosecutor: this is the second time I’ve see this. Is it on purpose, or autocorrect?

While I agree he's good at what he's doing, he's a disingenuous prick at best, a liar at worst.

For example, he has stated seven people "were killed" at the capitol that day. Words mean things. To the best of my knowledge, three people that would be considered participants in the rally died of medical conditions. Heart attack, stroke. One of them was not close to the building itself. He also states Officer Sicknick was bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher and later died of his injuries. There's no video evidence of that happening. Sicknick's brother has stated Officer Sicknick contacted him after the incident and never mentioned the fire extinguisher. He said he'd been pepper sprayed. Sicknick's family believes he died of a pre-existing medical condition. One lady was crushed by the mob. A Capitol Police officer shot unarmed Ashli Babbit. Another Capitol Police officer committed suicide a couple of days after the riot. They are calling that a line of duty death stemming from the Capitol riot.

The whole incident is chock full of weirdness. Has any one of the so-called "seditionists" been charged with sedition? Terrorism? I have seen no stories about how many guns were confiscated. Is there an investigation ongoing into why the Capitol Police were so unprepared?

Here's my conspiracy theory. This was all planned in order to increase security at the Capitol and Congress because of what the dems are planning, like taking legally owned guns, not because of anything republicans/conservatives/the masses are planning...

I find it amusing.

About 15 years ago, WEBN-FMs mascot ran for public office in Cincinnati, as "County Persecutor."

Since then, it's become something I enjoy saying in situations such as this.

Haha. Man, building that station was a blast.

Tree Frog Beer: It doesn't taste like much but it gets you there faster!

The tech setup for the fireworks was amazing. They worked with the pyro company ahead of time to design the show, and the control tones for the launchers were recorded digitally on the master tape / disc for the show as a sub-channel. So, in a sense, the DJ was in fact launching the pyro.



Anyway, it's possible that Rep. Ayanna Pressley doesn't understand how things work, but I think it's more probable that, like most elected politicians, she knows what her voters want to hear.

I still fail to see how they are charging him for anything. The first amendment is pretty black and white, "​Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Doesn't seem to be any limitations there to me, says nothing about, Insurrection, sedation, terrorism, etc

but maybe I'm just too stupid to read.


edit: I managed to mess up the text color some how, so maybe I am too dumb to read.

Now that Walt himself is dead, I'm fairly certain that the Walt Disney Company is not Nazi-leaning. Source: I have worked extensively with Disney, both in the Broadcast and Cruise Line divisions. Lots of normal folks, a few ultra-liberals, no national socialists that I ever came across.

Nazism is just a proxy here. If the far-left had chosen to compare former President Trump to Pol Pot, for instance, then it wouldn't be ok to point out similarities in emerging trends in public education and language reform in the present-day US to those of Kampuchea / Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge era.

A Lucasfilm spokesperson had this to say: “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future. Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”
