Here We Go – FBI Knew Boulder, Colorado, Suspect Identity Prior to Shooting – The Last Refuge

Wednesday, March 24, 2021

A reminder…. 50 FBI agents were enlisted within the Trump-Russia investigation to push a narrative. 13 FBI agents were dispatched to Talladega speedway to investigate a garage pull-down rope and push a narrative.  Thousands of FBI hours have been spent investigating the January 6th Washington DC protest… and once again another terrorist carries out a mass shooting where the FBI knew the suspect in advance. The FBI knew in advance the Pulse Nightclub shooter (Omar Mateen) and were tipped off by the local sheriff.  The FBI knew in advance the San Bernardino Terrorists (Tashfeen Malik). The FBI knew in advance the Boston Marathon Bombers (the Tsarnaev brothers) tipped off by Russians.  The FBI knew in advance the Garland, Texas, shooters (Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi).  The FBI knew in advance of the Parkland High School shooter (Nikolas Cruz). The FBI knew in advance of the Fort Hood shooter (Nidal Hasan); and now the FBI knew in advance of Ahmad al-Aliwi Alissa. Those are just off-the-top of my head…  Anyone notice a pattern?

Unfortunately, this seems to be a repeating pattern of abuse by the FBI!

Reinventing the Jet Airliner | Cato Institute

Tuesday, March 23, 2021

https://www.cato.org/blog/reinventing-jet-airliner

*** begin quote ***

Suppose I told you that I have reinvented the jet airliners that carried Americans more than 750 billion passenger miles–about 10 percent of all passenger travel–in 2019. My reinvented jet will go less than half as fast as existing jets. It will cost six times as much to operate, per passenger mile, as existing jets. Unlike existing jets, which can go anywhere there is air, the reinvented jet will only be able to go on a limited number of fixed routes.

*** end quote ***

Applying sarcasm to their “pet rock” project is a great way to “derail” it?

If the politicians and bureaucrats want it so bad and think it’s such a great idea, let them invest their retirement money in it.

Not very likely.

MONEY: MMT is the “voodoo economics” of 21st century

Monday, March 22, 2021

Modern Monetary Theory Is Wrong: Inflation Is Coming
By Dr. Michael Busler, Ph.D.Friday, 19 March 2021 12:59 PMCurrent | Bio | Archive

*** begin quote ***
 
Many economists and much of the public are beginning to worry about the massive increase in the money supply and the massive increase in deficit spending. With a public debt approaching $30 trillion and a money supply that has increased by 25% in the last two years, the worry seems justified. However, Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) says we have nothing to worry about.

MMT says that since the US uses a currency that is not backed by anything other than faith in the government, more money can always be printed to pay off the debt. And the increase in the money supply will not necessarily lead to inflation.

*** end quote ***

I don’t understand how more “dollars” in circulation chasing a relatively fixed amount of goods and services can NOT Lead to higher consumer prices.

The only one who benefits from inflation is the Gooferment.

The poor, the retired, those on fixed income, bondholders, and the middle class are getting screwed.

Previously-Deported Illegal Alien Rapes Two Young Girls: One Taxpayer-Relief Shot Later, Problem Solved – RedState

Sunday, March 21, 2021

An illegal alien rape suspect was released from jail in Maryland in August 2019, just three days after being arrested, despite a request from ICE to keep the guy in custody, so immigration officers could be sent to pick him up.

I just shake my head baffled by the absolute stupidity of politicians and bureaucrats in not “securing” these dangerous repeat offenders.

GUNS: Interesting technical mistake in a gun case

An Honest To God Straw Purchase Prosecution
March 14, 2021 by John Richardson 0 Comments

*** begin quote ***

After reading the actual indictment, the firearms purchased by Smith were all semi-auto pistols. There were four Glocks, a Walther, a Taurus, and a Smith & Wesson. Notably, one was listed as a “Glock G42 .390 caliber pistol.” I can’t say I’m surprised that no one caught that little error.

*** end quote ***

Can’t expect bureaucrats to be accurate or know anything?

Wonder if that’s enough to get the case tossed?

HEALTH: Masks are USELESS!

Mask Mandates Do Not Save Lives
By Spike Hampson

*** begin quote ***

Although some studies have concluded that masks help stop the spread of COVID-19, usually they have failed to replicate real-world situations.  A common approach is to evaluate the effectiveness of mask material at stopping the expulsion or intake of the aerosols presumed to be the airborne carriers of the virus.  Useful information, perhaps, but at this stage, what we need to know is whether the widespread use of masks is measurably reducing the risk of death from the disease.  To continue requiring the use of masks makes sense only if there is compelling data that death rates are lower for people who wear masks than it is for people who do not.

*** end quote ***

My high school friend says: “Like trying to catch salt with a tennis racket”!

I prefer “Like trying to keep mosquitoes out of your backyard with a chain link fence”!

His is shorter, but mine is more realistic.  

After all who has a tennis racket?

TECHNOLOGY: Take Control of Your Online Presence

‘Digital Anti-Hate’ Group Puts Dr. Mercola on Hit List
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
March 17, 2021

*** begin quote ***

For example, free-speech alternatives to Facebook and Twitter include Gab, MeWe, Minds and Parler. Uncensored alternatives to YouTube include Bitchute, Rumble, Brighteon, Banned.video and Thinkspot.

*** and ***

Take Control of Your Online Presence

Beyond that, consider safeguarding your own online privacy if you haven’t done so already. To encrypt your text messages and keep them from becoming data mining fodder, download the Signal or Telegram app and/or use a virtual private network (VPN) on your desktop, laptop and mobile devices.

Telegram has grown in popularity as many who have been banned on other social media platforms have migrated there. In addition to encrypting your text messages, the app also allows you to subscribe to channels. Read-only messages (although some also have the ability to comment) are sent to your phone from any channel you subscribe to.

Lastly, if you care about privacy and free speech, stop using any and all Google products, including its search engine, browser, email service, Google docs, Google Home devices, Fitbit and Android phones. There are alternatives to all of them.

For search, check out DuckDuckGo and SwissCows. For a browser, consider Brave or Opera. From a security perspective, Opera is far superior to Google Chrome and even includes a free VPN service. For encrypted email, sign up with ProtonMail, which is based in Switzerland. As for online document sharing, Digital Trends has published an article listing a number of alternatives to Google Docs.

*** end quote ***

I think this is an excellent list of alternatives.

And, I’m on many if not all of his suggestions.

You should be too.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Gooferment hit list of supposedly anti-vaxers

Friday, March 19, 2021

https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2021/03/17/digital-anti-hate-group-puts-dr-mercola-on-hit-list.aspx

‘Digital Anti-Hate’ Group Puts Dr. Mercola on Hit List
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
March 17, 2021
 
STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • One of the frontrunners in the comprehensive attack on freedom of speech online is a U.K.-based group with opaque funding called the Centre for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH)
  • The CCDH has been one of the most vocal organizations calling for the deplatforming of anyone who might have the ability to influence public opinion about vaccines
  • The CCDH recently posted a hit list on Twitter, listing the “Top 10 anti-vaxxers” it wants digital platforms to eradicate, including yours truly and the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), which worked with the U.S. Congress to establish the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act in 1986
  • March 2, 2021, Facebook complied with CCDH’s request, removing NVIC’s account. CCDH is also calling on Facebook to eliminate NVIC from Instagram, which Facebook owns
  • While you wait for a decentralized, censorship-free internet, consider ditching all social media networks that erode our civil liberties, and to join those that promote freedom of speech instead

*** begin quote ***

The irony of an “anti-hate” group posting a hit list — the only purpose of which is to seed public outrage and hate against those listed — did not escape unnoticed, and that’s part of the good news. More and more people are indeed starting to see the 1984-style double-think propaganda for what it is.

As pointed out by one Twitter follower: “You’ve posted what appears to be a digital hit list. Do you not see anything ironic about this considering your brand is ‘countering digital hate’?” “Project much?” said another. A third replied back to the CCDH saying “You should be on this list,” and a fourth said “It appears that by the word ‘hate’ you include uncomfortable truths.” 

*** end quote ***

Anti vaxxers list

I was aware of the NVIC.  But this gives me a nice list to include in my research.

If vaccines were so great, why “deplatform” alternative view points?

TECHNOLOGY: The shopping and delivery trend

Streaming, shopping and delivery: Why COVID may have changed our habits forever
The pandemic made subscription services like grocery delivery and streaming part of daily life. We examine what’s changed and what it means for the future.

*** begin quote ***

“I’ll likely go out to stores I enjoy browsing in, but I doubt I’ll go back regular grocery shopping. It’s just too convenient,” she said. “At the end of the day, I’ll pay a little more to have it delivered so I can spend some extra time with my daughter at home than spend 2 hours at the grocery store, shopping.”

*** end quote ***

Out of a sample size of two young women grocery shoppers, I know one who is NOT going back to the old way of schlepping to the grocery store.

The other is a tactile strap of consciousness lady who wants to see and feel stuff.

But I do think the author has identified a trend.

In my case, I’m lazy and, as a child, my sainted Mother used to drag me to go shopping many Saturdays.  Hence, I HATE it.  So for as much as like the power of Big Tech, I’m a keyboard warrior when it comes to shopping.

No going back for me unless I’m dragged into it.

Chinese girl gets stuck in claw machine after climbing inside to claim prizes

*** begin quote ***

A girl got stuck in a claw machine in northern China after she climbed inside to get her hands of the prizes inside.

The CCTV video, captured in the city of Hohhot in Inner Mongolia on March 14, shows a girl in a black dress climbing into a claw machine through the pickup hole.

After she grabbed a doll, she was trying to climb back out but could not manage it.

Her friend informed their parents and the workers at the arcade game centre were called to the site to open the claw machine door to free the girl.

*** end quote ***

Never take your eyes off little kids!

They are amazing.
