Belarus President Lukashenko Visits Chairman Xi, Affirms Support for China’s Ukraine Peace Plan
You would think that Lukashenko violated a war commandment from NATO, the World Economic Forum and the Western alliance when you read the apoplexy from the media describing how he stood next to Chairman Xi during his Chinese leader’s first comments in public about China’s peace proposal.
When you look at the big picture, you realize how strongly the western alliance needs to maintain a NATO expanded war with Russia as the only possible path forward. Anyone like Viktor Orban (Hungary) or Alexander Lukashenko (Belarus) who propose anything, except expanded war with Russia, are immediately attacked by the entire apparatus of western media.
It’s a remarkable dynamic to watch.

EZEKIEL 18:21-28
21“But if a wicked man turns away from all his sins which he has committed and keeps all my statutes and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22None of the transgressions which he has committed shall be remembered against him; for the righteousness which he has done he shall live. 23Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, says the Lord GOD, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live? 24But when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity and does the same abominable things that the wicked man does, shall he live? None of the righteous deeds which he has done shall be remembered; for the treachery of which he is guilty and the sin he has committed, he shall die. 25“Yet you say, `The way of the Lord is not just.’ Hear now, O house of Israel: Is my way not just? Is it not your ways that are not just? 26When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity, he shall die for it; for the iniquity which he has committed he shall die. 27Again, when a wicked man turns away from the wickedness he has committed and does what is lawful and right, he shall save his life. 28Because he considered and turned away from all the transgressions which he had committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
PSALMS 130:1-8
1Out of the depths I cry to thee, O LORD! 2Lord, hear my voice! Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications! 3If thou, O LORD, shouldst mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand? 4But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. 5I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; 6my soul waits for the LORD more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning. 7O Israel, hope in the LORD! For with the LORD there is steadfast love, and with him is plenteous redemption. 8And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
MATTHEW 5:20-26
20For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 21“You have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment.’ 22But I say to you that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother shall be liable to the council, and whoever says, `You fool!’ shall be liable to the hell of fire. 23So if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24leave your gift there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison; 26truly, I say to you, you will never get out till you have paid the last penny.
SATIRE!
Have a good weekend!
An intriguing beverage, a post full of content, some scripture for enlightenment….another wonderful Friday post from DePat!

And the coolest piece of music John Rutter ever wrote.
The lemur definitely knew how to ask for what it wanted. 😅
This says, “Are you awake yet?” which I find off-putting if the purpose of that tweet is to “prove” that someone is pretending to be JB.
I am wide awake and have been so for a long time. It is the author of that tweet who needs to wake up. It’s the same guy. You can see how parts of his face have been pulled by plastic surgery, similar to what happened with Kenny Rogers. The procedures have not done him any favors.
Same height, same hairline, same voice, same vocal timbre, same speech patterns, same gestures, same lack of intelligence, same ears, same teeth, same right-handedness, same facial proportions, same everything except for aging and “work done.”
This is not doing our side any good.
Below, same woman.
As well as this one.
No one is claiming that someone is impersonating Madonna, and her looks have changed far more than JB’s.
Two comments below that tweet, from people who are awake.
Wow, Kenny Rogers looks like he might be in Witness Protection. I would never have guessed that was him.
He could get on a city bus and no one would know who he was, until he started singing You got to know when to hold ’em… 😂

It goes back to Booty-judge’s line, “Green Energy WORKS!!” A plug with a rainbow, a bird, a fork, and Prince might be impressive….but is extremely unlikely to work.

I have a friend there also I met on the internet . One friend and I visited her but she lives in secure location. Hope she is OK she wants to die in S Africa and did not want to come here. Cape Town is beautiful I loved it there.

Not sure if this is old news or new news. Just stumbled on it when I saw PNC trending so took a look and then had to respond.
They were good at the business for so long. They are now kaput.
Years ago, when PNC was Pittsburgh National Bank, it was a great place to do business with. Nice people, “down-home” and friendly, great service. It was “the bank to use” if one was living anywhere in the Pittsburgh area.
All that began to change in the early 1980’s after the steel mills left. That’s when Pittsburgh National Bank became “PNC” and started to buy up smaller banks in the region. It went downhill from there.
From “Nationalist Bank” to Globalist Bank.
Totally makes sense.
The bank we bank with just went that way too.
Boom
Great comment!
The Psalm passage you shared made me think of this John Michael Talbot song.
His music has ministered to me many times over the years.
Thank you for a wonderful Friday post, DP. God Bless YOU!!!
Good choice, JMT has been an inspiration for several decades now; quite an expansive library as well. I have several favorites but number one is “Holy Is His Name”.
He covers the stuff we pros would like to chuck, actually. I’ve only heard of this man recently, and everything I’ve heard he has done is a cover of the schlock foisted on us by two hymnal publishers.
I am not sure how you came to your opinion. Did you form your opinion on what others said about him or after listening to his songs?
JMT is a wonderful soul and it comes through specially when one meets him in person. His songs touch the soul full of spirit . He has done much in charities .
I form my opinion based on my knowledge of the music itself. I’ve been a choir singer in Church since the Jesuit stuff hit in the 1970s when I was a kid. Frankly, as I developed as a musician, I outgrew it. I get paid to sing it now, and rejoice when something more traditional or even Irish is chosen. I looked at the playlists of the songs he covers and can tell you most of it was written by the St. Louis Jesuits in the 1970s. Just a sample:
Be Not Afraid – Dan Schutte (he left the Jesuits, actually) and debuted on “A Dwelling Place” in 1976
I Am the Bread of Life – Sr. Suzanne Toolin, won’t share the pros collective opinion on this one
Here I Am Lord – Dan Schutte, debuted on “Lord of Light” in 1981 or 82
On Eagles Wings – Fr. Michael Joncas, SJ who is really a free agent, musically speaking (I have a soft spot for this one)
One Bread, One Body – Fr. John Foley, SJ debuted on “Wood Hath Hope” in 1978, IIRC
Holy Is His Name – arranged by David Haas, and currently off limits at Church due to Haas being credibly accused of being a dirty old man by an underage teenage girl
Hosea – Weston Priory and Gregory Norbet, other than the tessitura, which is low, I don’t have much of a problem with it
Glory and Praise to Our God – Dan Schutte again. Don’t remember what album, but I think it was “Earthen Vessels” which, IIRC, came out in 1977. I’ll have to check that.
I’d have to listen to the ones titled as psalms, but the ones I listed are all covers.
We agree on many spiritual topics but on this I take a different perspective. On music of this type I ask myself if it inspires greater devotion to Christ. For JMT the answer is yes and it does not matter to me if it is an interpretation of someone’s else song. Despite this new information about the author “Holy Is His Name” it remains my favorite. I am reminded that God has a habit of using sinners to advance His kingdom.
I would boil it down to a matter of palate, actually. And over use. I got burned out on some pieces just from doing them over and over. “O Holy Night” being at the top of the list.
No joke, “O Holy Night” is another one of my favorites. I never tire of listening to that song. It may be different when someone sings it often. But, for me, there is no danger of that happening. I suspect we would never cross paths in a music store.
This is one that inspires me. It is sung on Good Friday during the Veneration of the Cross. It’s a BEAR to sing, but so beautiful.
This is a song of the type that would inspire me in a church setting where I am surrounded by symbols of the faith. However in my living room it would not have the same effect. I think this is because my attitude is more consciously focused on the spirit in a church as opposed to my home. At home I need to understand the words that are being sung as much as the melody.
Thank you, DP that was beautiful. You are right, New Age music which replaced the traditional choral music of the church is not spiritually nourishing.
Agreed, O Holy Night is a gem. Everyone wants to hear it, at the rarefied moment. But almost nobody has any business trying to sing it. 😄 That’s why we never programmed it as a solo – always the soloist, choir, organ and usually violin.
Hearty Amen!
A couple of corrections. “Be Not Afraid” was written by Fr. Bob Duford, SJ and “Glory and Praise to Our God” on “A Dwelling Place.”
We had ’em all.
I also have both choir hymnals from the publishers. This is one of my fields.
I love John Michael Talbot’s music. In person he is wonderful 🙂
What a precious memory! I put some JMT on to soothe my granddaughter when she was fussy. That, rocking, AND prayer settled her right down 🙂
Babies love soothing music.
Yes AND things of the Lord!!!
Me also. His Music is spirit filled
Amen! ❤ 😍 ❤

Amber and Jay, reacting to Angelina Jordan, age 10, singing I Put a Spell on You
.
You really have to be careful with those little girl vocalists…..
…..they can surprise you.
Just out of wild curiosity for DePat — how old were you when it was discovered you had a musical voice?
I always could sing. The voice started to stick out…puberty. We don’t train before puberty. Actually a year after you’re through, at least.
I really wish parents would encourage kids in symphonic instruments, not those that make organized noise.
I am with you there!
I much prefer classical music or jazz to the noise that is passed off as music today. I have not had on a radio in ~2 decades.
I also had the best hearing in my factory BECAUSE I never listen to that noise.
My hearing…standing in front of organ pipes, and behind the horns and percussion eventually will catch up to me.
Unfortunately yes.
Mine caught up with me after decades of playing in orchestra and musical theater orchestra pits. Hearing loss in both ears and Tinnitus in the right ear.
Driving diesel pickups is not helping my hearing but so far it is still decent.
You are by no means alone. One of the horns in the SLSO wore hearing aids. Older man, very nice. When we did Mahler 2, the percussion principal brought out handfuls of the earplugs that were backstage and handed them out to the sopranos. He was insistent that we use them. I had “earplugs in” and “earplugs out” written in scores.
Cowbell?
….and, then, there’s little girl drummers. This was age 12….
She’s playing at the Taylor Hawkins tribute, using sticks that he gave her before he died. She had previously filled-in for him for the closing song at a concert at the LA Forum. The band is familiar and comfortable with her, although they were amused when she climbed over the side of the drum riser.
Governor Ron DeSantis is showing his true colors and they are increasingly scary, iron-fisted and unconstitutional.
Over the past week:
– DeSantis had Trump supporters removed from his book signing event.
– A bank owned by one of DeSantis’ big donors closed Don Jr.’s bank account.
Now:
– DeSantis is trying to pass a bill forcing bloggers to register with State of FL if they write about State officials – and they must continue to file notices each time they do – with 5 years prison for failure to register.
– Florida is also about to pass new hate crime laws with jail time
Is the intent of these laws to silence opposition?
Will mere dissent, criticism or exposing truth be called hate?
Will they punish and jail opponents like Stalin and Øbama?
Wow… he’s going full Nazi in the first inning?
You go Ronnie! Show ’em who you really are! 😂
Pretty amazing to watch. They must have tranny photos of him. 🤣
Underaged girls, or students of his. Watch and see. If he’s the nominee, it’ll happen.
they already had that party pic when he was a teacher of HS girls just a couple years younger…I thought Trump mentioned that at one point
Yep. I’d bet there’s more.
Not to mention some of those girls would LOVE to have a FULL swiss bank account…
I wouldn’t bet against you here 🙂
My audio is working fine, have checked it on other tweets, but the sound on this one appears to have been turned off.
It must have been working at some point previously because SD posted the link and said “Listen very carefully to the video in this Tweet.”
So is this a regional thing or is it muted all everywhere.
From OT not a good thing IMO

“Hate” crimes are a slippery slope. Ripe for abuse.
Don’t need “hate crimes”.
“hate crimes” = POLITICALLY INCORRECT THOUGHT!
If I dislike muslims and am afraid of gangs of blacks … BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE WITH THOSE GROUPS is it ‘hate’ or is it a well honed sense of self-preservation?
I am sorry to hear that.
I never had abad experience with either group but then i lead a cheltered life 🙂
We do birthday gigs and festivals so we encounter all sorts of people.
Some are good some are bad. Human nature is to group people and learn from experience.
I will NEVER EVER do a Muslim party again without my Hubby because women are completely ignored by the men and boys. It became dangerous with a soccer ball bouncing off my pony rump and another ball running between the other pony’s legs.
I immediately packed up and left. We did not get paid.
That was the worst but we had other not good experiences.
Yes you cannot let your animals be abused. I understand completely . Glad you made it out safely. Always good to have hubby with you. Mine is always with me . Wish you had gotten paid Grrrrrrr.
Literally Thought Police!
There’s no way that can withstand Constitutional challenge.
It’s obscene.
You have to register with the same public officials you intend to criticize?
Not even the Crims have tried that.
You’re done, Ronnie.
Trump can destroy him with this, if the entire global social media doesn’t do it first.
Thanks for outing yourself so early in the game 👍
IMO, DeSantis wouldn’t be doing this cr@p if it weren’t being “endorsed” by the DeepState / WEF / RNC.
IMO, the “backstory motivation” here is an “indirect indictment” of POTUS45 as the “hate instigator” of the Jan6 situation — and to “position” DeSantis as “protecting the American public from this kind of behavior.”
All toward making sure that DeSantis is on the RNC ticket for 2024 — either as President or VP.
I think you may have hit on the correct reason, and it’s very devious.
“protecting the American public from this kind of behavior.”
I do not think that will fly very well. Too much is coming out about censorship by DC that is DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATH OF 100,000s or more. (Covidicy)
There is also the treatment of the J 6ers vs that of ANTIFA.
It is up to US as individuals to point out censorship is just plain BAD NEWS and the censorship in the USA has KILLED!
“MO, DeSantis wouldn’t be doing this cr@p if it weren’t being “endorsed” by the DeepState / WEF / RNC.”

I hope Trump buries Desantis so deep that he’s never found.
I’ve been giving this clown the side-eye for a long time now. Glad he put a fork in himself, to let us know he’s done.
volume worked for me here in Metro Detroit, fwiw
“So is this a regional thing or is it muted all everywhere.”
__________
I just checked, and the sound is working for me 👍
the Bush support he’s getting is immensely troubling, imo.
Once that was confirmed, we knew there was a problem.
True but it sure makes it easier to explain why Trump is the better choice if it were a match up between them. DeSantis had been viewed so positively by many Patriots. I still talk to family and others that are Trump 100% but are a little awed by DeSantis yet didn’t realize that he’s the RINO choice.
It’s very good that the mask is being exposed.
…………adding that I was one of those liking him a lot and said I’d wait for proof of his being turned…IMO, he has turned
And good it is EARLY so it can spread by word of mouth.
True. I’ve chit chatted with a couple of non family people recently about him. They weren’t aware of any of his choices of late
How can DeS not know the loathing millions upon millions of patriots have toward the Bushes? The deep sense of betrayal? Of having been lied to and snookered?
Yet DeS stands next to Jeb and welcomes the Bush association. That proves he has no choice in the matter, or is a snake himself.
Notice, it is DeS who is responsible for the ugly polarization. He could have easily and naturally aligned with MAGA, if he were free to do so and an honest man. And he could have been highly successful doing so, and actually made MAGA successful beyond imagining.
But hatred for Trump is a vital aspect of whatever DeS is doing now. That hatred, the outward manifestation just a reflection of the underlying hatred the Bush types have for patriots, is what causes the polarization. There was zero need for the hatred, unless required by his masters.
DeS is an establishment insider….and that’s not good.
sounds like he’s reading from a script sometimes, too, right ?
he’s being manipulated.
He’s a harvard lawyer and a carrier politician.
What chance was there, that he was ever really MAGA?
It’s like expecting the bad guy in every movie to turn out to be the good guy in the final scene.
“a carrier politician”
Is that any relation to a carrier pigeon?
😂 “career”
He’s a carrier too.
And what he’s carrying, we don’t want!
“he’s being manipulated.”
——————————————————————
And now he is trying to manipulate us.
He is also copying Trump but he does not have the brains and charisma of Trump and not MEGA support.
The pod casters who switch so quickly from Trump to DeSantis are showing their true clolor.
“pod casters” brings to mind pod people 😉
I was thinking more of a type of electric guitar meant to be played by sentient plants….
Fender crapocaster!
🙂
Please do not forget that Trump endorsed and “stood by” Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and countless other RINOs. Those people were equivalent to “temps” Trump thought necessary to achieve something he wanted. Politics is a strange game where you have “allies” but very few friends.
Tonawanda so happy to see you 🙂
Hope you are doing well in NY. I am thinking of friends stuck in NY .
Nice to see you, too! I am doing fine. This state is wretched, but good friends and family here make it wonderful for my wife and me!
That is good to hear. Friends and family are a blessing.
The worst part about Shrub is that he was the better choice in 2000.

Did you see RDS’s post @09:17 giving a possible reason, it might just be a mud slinging exercise without any intention of following it through.
Love it…but will it still have to be proved in court stretching out years of tyranny?
“– A bank owned by one of DeSantis’ big donors closed Don Jr.’s bank account.”
Seriously that is pretty petty but I don’t think it can be laid at the feet of DeSantis.
DeSantis could fix it with a phone call. It’s on him.
Well for him to do that I suppose he would have to verify it and to verify it he would have to know about it.
“Blinders”.
Pretend not to know!
I can only think about DeSantis in terms of what he does. When someone asks him the question about the bank account then I will be able to make a determination. I do not know the man; have never met him. Only his actions (deeds and speech) can tell me anything about him.
“Well for him to do that I suppose he would have to verify it and to verify it he would have to know about it.”
__________
There’s no way he’s not going to hear about it… 😁
That is an assumption. Maybe it is reasonable in your experience but that only makes it probable not definite. I have a history of wrong conclusions that I can trace back to a wrong assumption. I am not arguing with your position but merely explaining how I approach what I do not know.
I meant that his opposition will certainly bring it to his attention, even if his own people don’t.
That is one of the legitimate roles of an adversarial media. A role which has been sorely missed for some decades. If the media would merely treat every candidate the way they treated Nixon then we might have a better republic.
your approach smacks of wisdom AND experience 🙂
If Desanty is the boss, then he calls the donor and says “What are you doing by closing Don Jr’s account? How do you not clear something like that with me, before you do it? Are you out of your freaking mind? Are you trying to sabotage my candidacy? You need to tell me right now, so I know whether to return your check.”
OTOH, if Desanty is the donor’s puppet, then Desanty plays dumb and says nothin’ to nobody.
That is my point about this incident, until he actually does something I don’t know whether DeSantis is the boss or the puppet. That is my position on adultism, as an adult a person is responsible for his own actions but not someone else’s actions, of which he may not be aware. Until someone asks him to clarify what he thinks about the bank’s action he can play dumb, I just will not know.
This is some seriously messed up shit. It seems like it would mean people like you and me would have to register with the state to write about him here.
I will state again for the record, I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR DESANTIS.NEVER.
Me too!
I wonder if it is real? This is so far out 🤔

Love of my life, you’ve hurt me
You’ve broken my heart
And now you leave me
Love of my life, can’t you see?
Bring it back, bring it back
Don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know
What it means to me
Love of my life, don’t leave me
You’ve taken my love
(All my love)
You now desert me
Love of my life, can’t you see?
(Please bring it back, back)
Bring it back, bring it back
Don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know
What it means to me
You will remember
When this is blown over
And everything’s all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side
To remind you how I still love you
I still love you
Back, hurry back
Please, bring it back home to me
Because you don’t know
What it means to me
Love of my life
Love of my life
Ooh, ooh

Freddy had I am gay stamped on his forehead. Who cares. Brilliant entertainer.
The live performances are pretty incredible, how he interacts with the audience.
As if performing for hundreds of thousands of people was the most natural thing in the world to him.
Like that was his comfort zone 😁
I have not read any books about him, and I haven’t seen the fairly recent movie. From what I have read online, he didn’t grow up gay, that happened later. Whether before or after he wrote this song (in 1975), I don’t know.
For a long time, I had guessed that all the other band members were gay too, to have a band name like Queen.
But apparently the other three band members are married (to women) and have children.
I just found this on Wiki, it sounds like the song ‘Love of My Life‘ may have been about Mary Austin:
………………………………………
“In the early 1970s, Mercury had a long-term relationship with Mary Austin, whom he met through guitarist Brian May. Austin, born in Fulham, London, met Mercury in 1969 when she was 19 and he was 24 years old, a year before Queen had formed.
He lived with Austin for several years in West Kensington, London. By the mid-1970s, he had begun an affair with David Minns, an American record executive at Elektra Records. In December 1976, Mercury told Austin of his sexuality, which ended their romantic relationship.
Mercury moved out of the flat they shared, and bought Austin a place of her own nearby his new address of 12 Stafford Terrace, Kensington.
Mercury and Austin remained friends through the years; Mercury often referred to her as his only true friend. In a 1985 interview, he said of Austin: “All my lovers asked me why they couldn’t replace Mary, but it’s simply impossible. The only friend I’ve got is Mary, and I don’t want anybody else. To me, she was my common-law wife. To me, it was a marriage. We believe in each other, that’s enough for me.”
Mercury’s final home, Garden Lodge, a 28-room Georgian mansion in Kensington set in a quarter-acre manicured garden surrounded by a high brick wall, was picked out by Austin. Austin married the painting artist Piers Cameron; they have two children. Mercury was the godfather of her older son, Richard. In his will, Mercury left his London home to Austin having told her, “You would have been my wife, and it would have been yours anyway.”

Thanks for supporting my comment.
You’re welcome, but Mary is a woman he was living with when the song was written.
No idea how long Freddie was involved with David Minns, but it was Mary who remained his friend throughout the rest of his life.
With many songs, probably most songs, whatever inspired the writer is relevant to the writer.
It is the listener who makes the song their own, hearing it in the context of their own life and experience.
Like Joni Mitchell observed in her song Blue (1971):
Blue… songs are like tattoos
You know I’ve been to sea before
Crown and anchor me
Or let me sail away
Hey Blue,
There is a song for you
Ink on a pin
Underneath the skin
An empty space to fill in
Sweet and tragic .
Dr. Paul McHugh – chief of psychiatry at Hopkins – has NEVER subscribed to the LGBT is normal crap. He never went along with any of it.

That story is also seven or eight years old, which is why I chose not to include it in today’s selection.
He was born in 1931 and is in his 90s according to Wiki,
I didn’t know that!
I was hoping it was some good news, for a change.

Depop and it appears they are going for more than 15/16.
15/16? 😮 What happened to 13/14? 🤔
Oh wait… maybe they’ve realized they need more dedicated security now that moar and moar are learning early about this epic scaled mass genocide and they didn’t count on so many true bloods not falling prey to their sick scheme😁
The best laid plans of mice and men …
Slow Guy puzzled. 🙄
15/16? 13/14? 😯
Couple months ago, someone here QTree, calibrated me to, 14/15.
7.5 Billion of us. 500 Million keepers. 7 Billion gotta go.
OK, none of this really matters. A TARGET is on each of our foreheads.
Wold population moved from 7 billion to the new number of 8 billion.
The 1/2 billion (500 million) keepers is from the Georgia guide stones.
So 13/14 @ a population of 7 billion is now 15/16 with a world pop of 8 billion.

That is apparently tragic truth, God help us, literally! It still feels like a dystopian nightmare that eventually we should awaken from 🙁
32 PREGNANCIES
23 spontaneous abortions
2 with intra-uterine death (Is that part of the 23? I do not think so.)
2 premature with neonatal deaths
1 spontaneous abortion with neonatal death
1 normal out come.
23+2+2+1+1 = 29
No report on 3???
What I don’t understand is why they felt they HAD to do this. The birthrate already had dropped to below replacement levels. Eventually, their goals would have been met without killing innocent babies.
Control freaks. Power. Money.
NONE of it makes sense to 7 Billion folks targeted.
All that matters is it makes sense to THEM AND they HAVE THE MONEY AND CONTROL.
We are NOTHING to them. Marx called us Human waste and the Bilderberg group calls us the great unwashed.

3 minutes FLASH BACK to five years ago..
The real target was Africa and S. America. Also they wanted to take out AMERICAN PATRIOTS and this was a very very good way to do it.
If I am correct and we are staring at the start of a new Little Ice Age so they think they really need to get the population down to less than 1/2 of what it is now.
This is from 1970 when the population was only 3 billion and not the 8 billion it is now.
In 1969, grain stores decreased and by 1972 had plummeted to crisis levels, that, according to the CIA, country leaders went to great pains to hide.

I do not agree with them however we do need to understand their reasoning. It is why I wrote that series.
I was wondering about that too. Thanks for spelling it out!
The babies may not have been born at the time.
That’s a reasonable possibility but it seems that they could have spelled it out like “3 pregnancies continue, 2 in 3rd trimester & 1 in 2nd trimester, none of which appear problematic at this time” or some such.

No fertility studies were done for the Covid vaccine. During the Pfizer trials, women were told to not get pregnant.
26 of the women in the study got pregnant.
15 of them miscarried.
5 were born with congenital anomalies.

IIRC, this blog was one of the first places where examples of the REAL results of the Pfizer-BioNTech “clinical study” of BNT162b2, the company’s COVID-19 “vaccine”, were posted and discussed. The study is C4591001, STILL IN clinical trials under various NCT numbers at https://clinicaltrials.gov/.
Regarding the REAL results in pregnant women who got BNT162b2 injections in the C4591001 “clinical study”:
Now that it has been shown that the BNT162b2 spike protein + its mRNA enter human cells via the PRRARSV added “backdoor code key”; AND that BNT162b2 spike protein + its mRNA are passed into the unborn fetus AND/OR into the “vaccinated” mother’s breast milk (and in each case, the fetus and/or the nursling develop COVID-19 antibodies — this, according to the CDC itself); AND that BNT162b2 migrated to the ovaries of the female Wistar lab rats according to Pfizer-BioNTech’s own 2020 study data:
IMO, it can be posited that any female human, whether unborn, a nursling, or of childbearing age, has real potential to have damaged ovaries and/or eggs from being exposed to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccine”, BNT162b2 (or to the Moderna COVID-19 “vaccine”, mRNA-1273, since this product uses the same spike protein + its mRNA in the formulation).
This is aside from the fact that BNT162b2 was shown, again per the Wistar lab rat study performed by Pfizer-BioNTech in 2020, that it migrated to the testes of the male lab rats. It is now known that BNT162b2 can migrate to, and damage, the testes of human males, per the autopsy studies performed by Prof. Dr. Arne Burkhardt.
Thank you RDS for continually keeping the details of this horrifyingly demonic info in front of us. The depop agenda must be ended AND these evil people Must Pay for what they have done (I desire that to happen in this world but expect they will only Really face judgement in the world to come) 😡
No trigger discipline. Sad.
