65,615 Deaths Now Reported in Europe and the USA Following COVID-19 Vaccines – Corporate Media Refuses to Publish this Data
Here at the beginning of March, 2022, official government health statistics in Europe and the United States are reporting that 65,615 people have now died following COVID-19 injections. These are "passive" reporting systems, so the true lives lost is much higher. One study estimates that the unreported factor for COVID-19 vaccine injuries and deaths is 41X, which would put these totals at closer to 2.8 MILLION deaths, and that is just in the U.S. and certain countries in Europe. Earlier this week, Blaze Media published an exclusive report stating that the U.S. federal government ... read more
Guatemalan Water Defenders Celebrate Ten Years Of Resistance
In Central America, as in many other parts of the world today, communities are being thrust into life and death struggles up against powerful interests to ensure clean water and health for their future generations. This is often the case where mining companies seek to dig up gold, silver, iron ore or other metals and minerals, disrupting or destroying precious water supplies in the process, and leaving behind massive quantities of toxic waste on the land. With national and international laws designed to privilege such harmful activities in the name of so-called development and pro... read more

Creating A Global Patchwork For Nature
We are the Ark invites people to wild portions of their gardens, window boxes, parks, and public land. Any patch they can, to create a patchwork quilt of sanctuaries that wraps its way around the globe. The Earth has become a barren green, brown, and scorched desert. We now must create the island oases in these deserts. These oases will be the seeding ground for our new story to begin again. They will be sanctuaries for as many creatures as we can fit into them, safe havens for the magic and abundance in the natural world.

Ukrainian Nationalists want Russian citizens out
How Ukraine’s Jewish president Volodymyr Zelensky made peace with neo-Nazi paramilitaries now on the front lines of war with Russia By @RealAlexRubi and @MaxBlumenthal https://t.co/bJuHrz2e0u — The Grayzone (@TheGrayzoneNews) March 4, 2022 OK so Putin called the Transnational President of the Ukraine a Nazi and he's Jewish.

"It Is Common To Assume..."
"It is common to assume that human progress affects everyone - that even the dullest man, in these bright days, knows more than any man of, say, the Eighteenth Century, and is far more civilized. This assumption is quite erroneous. The great masses of men, even in this inspired republic, are precisely where the mob was at the dawn of history. They are ignorant, they are dishonest, they are cowardly, they are ignoble. They know little if anything that is worth knowing, and there is not the slightest sign of a natural desire among them to increase their knowledge." - H. L. Mencken ○ ○ ○ read more
"To Tell The Truth..."
"In ordinary times we get along surprisingly well, on the whole, without ever discovering what our faith really is. If, now and again, this remote and academic problem is so unmannerly as to thrust its way into our minds, there are plenty of things we can do to drive the intruder away. We can get the car out or go to a party or to the cinema or read a detective story or have a row with a district council or write a letter to the papers about the habits of the nightjar or Shakespeare's use of nautical metaphor. Thus we build up a defense mechanism against self-questioning because, to... read more

College Board Vs. CRT Panic
The College Board is a for-profit company that makes a bundle selling products that make teenagers look smart as well as establishing itself as a gatekeeper for college entrance. It is amazing to me that some folks are still tricked by that name into thinking this is some sort of non-profit college entrance agency. Nope. The College Board has made some huge mistakes, including hiring Comon Core architect David "I'm no education expert" Coleman to be the Big Boss.

Where’s Fauci? Infamous bureaucrat now relegated to obscure shows and local TV
[image: undefined] If you’re looking for the infamous Dr Anthony Fauci, you might want to check your local television stations, or some random YouTube channels, because the man has seemingly joined the primetime cable milk carton. COVID Mania has become deeply unpopular with the American people, and a Democratic polling firm recently convinced the Biden Administration and its allies in Congress to drop the hysteria. With midterms around the corner, and trouble raging in Eastern Europe, it was time to put the kibosh on all of it. Here’s an internal memo from a Democrat polling fi... read more

Volodymyr Zelensky is the current President of Ukraine.

He has made no attempt to keep his word on either issue. Instead, he has greatly exacerbated Ukraine’s internal crisis while relentlessly provoking Russia.

How Ukraine’s Jewish President Made Peace With Neo-Nazi Paramilitaries
Back in October 2019, as the war in eastern Ukraine dragged on, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Zolote, a town situated firmly in the “gray zone” of Donbas, where over 14,000 had been killed, mostly on the pro-Russian side. There, the president encountered the hardened veterans of extreme right paramilitary units keeping up the fight against separatists just a few miles away. Elected on a platform of de-escalation of hostilities with Russia, Zelensky was determined to enforce the so-called Steinmeier Formula conceived by then-German Foreign Minister Walter Stein... read more

Jan. 6 committee can't make a case against Trump
* Monica Showalter:* *The great weasel-word gaslight: The Jan. 6 commission finds nothing on Trump* They have not produced any evidence that Trump planned or ordered the January 6 riots. None. Not one of the people arrested in the riots has suggested anything like that.

History of World War II: Operation Barbarossa: Myths and Reality

Hispanic women big winners in GOP Texas primaries
Politico: Republicans have long argued that Donald Trump’s gains in majority-Hispanic South Texas were not a one-time deal and, instead, the beginning of a larger trend. The primary results on Tuesday night proved they’re right. The GOP saw continued strong turnout in the state’s southernmost border counties in the latest display that Trump’s gains among Hispanic voters were no anomaly. But that was only part of the story. When the dust clears after the May 24 runoffs, as many as eight Latinos — including six women — could ultimately be Republican nominees for congressional seat... read more

Biden' energy polices in the cross hairs
