Mr Global’s Attack on FOOD Part III

H/T Cthulhu

Unfortunately this is all to true.

Recently we all heard of Scotland targeting sheep and cattle for removal. A really STUPID MOVE since they produce food from rocky hilly areas unsuitable for crops. So I thought I had better dust off this article I wrote months ago and publish it. I am not going to make changes since it is mostly looking at a possible future.

GUARDIAN April 22 2022: Northern Ireland faces loss of 1 million sheep and cattle to meet climate targets

…Separate analysis by the UK government’s climate advisers suggests chicken numbers would also need to be cut by 5 million by 2035….

This is not out of the blue:

NOTE DATE –>December 2018 – SPICe Briefing to The Scotish Parliament

Climate Change and Agriculture: How can Scottish Agriculture Contribute to Climate Change Targets?

ABSTRACT:
The Climate Change (Emissions Reduction Targets) (Scotland) Bill proposes a statutory target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2050 (from a 1990 baseline) across the whole Scottish economy. It also allows for a target of 100% reduction in emissions (known as a net zero target) to be created at a future date, from the same baseline. The UK and Scottish Government’s statutory advisers, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), consider the 90% target to be at the limit of feasibility. The Scottish Government is however under pressure from stakeholders [WHO ARE THESE STAKEHOLDERS? The ReichsWEF??? GC] to set a specific net zero target in the Bill.
The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). CH4 and N2O have a significantly higher global warming potential than CO2; in other words, their total warming impact is greater relative to CO2 over a set period. Emissions are reported and predominantly discussed in a common unit of CO2 equivalent (CO2e). Agriculture (including associated land use) is the second largest contributor to Scottish emissions (after transport at 37%), accounting for just over a quarter of Scotland’s total in 2016.
Methane and nitrous oxide are emitted in significant quantities by agriculture. These are inherent in food production due to biological processes and chemical interactions in both livestock and plant growth. Therefore, the approach to mitigating emissions from agriculture differs to most other sectors where CO2 is the overwhelmingly dominant greenhouse gas. As more progress is made in reducing emissions in for example electricity or waste, the relative importance of agriculture in the total Scottish emissions budget grows. The CCC’s latest report for Scotland considers that “the ambition in the agricultural sector and the focus on voluntary measures remains concerning. Agriculture will need to make a greater contribution to meeting emissions targets, especially if Scotland is to meet a netzero target as proposed in the Climate Change Bill”. Emissions from agriculture and related land use have been largely static for 10 years. Livestock emissions account for around 48% of the agricultural total (by CO2e), most of which can be attributed to methane emissions from cattle and sheep.
Agricultural soils and land-use change emissions account for a further 43%. The use of the phrase “net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture” …The reality on the ground is that the activities of farmers and land managers both contribute to and sequester greenhouse gases. If farmers are to maintain a headage of livestock, even at a reduced rate, then there will be methane emissions, however this can be balanced by actions elsewhere. ….Recent research on Soil Carbon and Land Use suggests that an improved understanding of CH4 and N2O emissions is likely to lead to greater opportunities for emissions reductions than that provided by solely increasing carbon sequestration through e.g. peatland restoration or tree planting. Multiple opportunities exist to reduce emissions arising on-farm. Many of these will require shifts from business as usual behaviour, and include agroforestry, [So that is what will grow on the grazing land NOT CROPS TO FEED PEOPLE. – GC] restoring peatlands, [PEAT has been used for centuries as a source of heat for homes -GC] soil testing and management to increase carbon capture, changes to cattle feed to reduce enteric emissions, farming breeds and crop varieties that produce less methane, precision agriculture to reduce fertilizer and pesticide use, and DIETARY CHANGE…

From the GatewayPundit:

Below is the list of America’s 98 plants that have been destroyed, damaged or impacted by “accidental fires,” disease, or general causes.

The US once had vast grain reserves in silos across the country. Today those grain reserves along with the silos have vanished. This was due to deregulated global markets, globalization, and the 1996 farm bill. That bill abolished our national system of grain reserves. (Thanks Dan Amstutz, I hope you are enjoying the flames you so richly deserve.) The reserves in the U.S.D.A. Commodity Credit Corporation were gradually depleted until in 2008 the USDA, in response to the 2008 Food Crisis, declared ‘The Cupboard is Bare’ . Dan Amstutz buddies, the grain traders even responded to the food crisis by writing a letter to President Bush discouraging the replacement of reserves because it would “distort” grain prices, suggesting a monetary fund, from which they could profit, instead.

7 U.S. Code § 1427 – Commodity Credit Corporation sales price restriction7 U.S. Code § 1427 – Commodity Credit Corporation sales price restriction

(a)In general
The Commodity Credit Corporation may sell any farm commodity owned or controlled by the Corporation at any price not prohibited by this section.
(b)Inventories
In determining sales policies for basic agricultural commodities or storable nonbasic commodities, the Corporation should consider the establishment of such policies with respect to prices, terms, and conditions as the Corporation determines will not discourage or deter manufacturers, processors, and dealers from acquiring and carrying normal inventories of the commodity of the current crop.

Recently there have been increased calls for the development of a U.S. or international grain reserve to provide priority access to food supplies for Humanitarian needs. The National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) and the North American Export Grain Association (NAEGA) strongly advise against this concept..Stock reserves have a documented depressing effect on prices… and resulted in less aggressive market bidding for the grains.

NOW you know what happened to government cheese.

I have calculated that reducing CO2 output by 80% (by 2030 per Obama) would reduce humans to a 1700s life style. Farmers made up 69% of labor force in 1800 compared to 2.6% in 1990. The 1800s saw the First Agricultural Revolution with the introduction of commercial chemical fertilizers and factory made equipment that could be pulled by animals. Prior to that agriculture was mainly done by hand with WOODEN implements.

1830 — It took about 250-300 labor-hours to produce 100 bushels of wheat from 5 acres of land with walking plow, [Human powered] brush harrow, hand broadcast of seed, sickle, and flail.

1810-30 saw the transfer of “manufacturing” from the farm and home to the shop and factory. It wasn’t until the 1840′s that we saw factory made farm machinery, labor saving devices and chemical fertilizers became at all common.

1849—Mixed chemical fertilizers were sold commercially

1866 – Gregor Mendel blends two pea plants to create hybrid pea plant

By 1890, labor costs continued to decrease, with only 35–40 labor-hours required to produce 100 bushels (2-1/2 acres) of corn, because of technological advances of the 2-bottom gang plow, disk and peg-tooth harrow, and 2-row planters; and 40–50 labor-hours required to produce 100 bushels (5 acres) of wheat with gang plow, seeder, harrow, binder, thresher, wagons, and horses. However PETA and the Climate loonies want to get rid of OXEN and horses so it is back to serf/slave labor

For comparison in 1987 it only took 3 labor-hours to produce 100 bushels of wheat from 3 acres of land (Ain’t CO2 fertilization great) with tractors, 35-foot sweep disk, 30-foot drill, and a 25-foot self-propelled combine. By 1970 one American farmer was supplying over 75 people with food.

HISTORY OF PESTICIDES

Up until the 1940s inorganic substances, such as sodium chlorate and sulphuric acid, or organic chemicals derived from natural sources were still widely used in pest control. However, some pesticides were by-products of coal gas production or other industrial processes. Thus early organics such as nitrophenols, chlorophenols, creosote, naphthalene and petroleum oils were used for fungal and insect pests, whilst ammonium sulphate and sodium arsenate were used as herbicides. The drawback for many of these products was their high rates of application, lack of selectivity and phytotoxicity9. The growth in synthetic pesticides accelerated in the 1940s with the discovery of the effects of DDT, BHC, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, chlordane, parathion, captan and 2,4-D. These products were effective and inexpensive with DDT being the most popular, because of its broad-spectrum activity4 ,10. DDT was widely used, appeared to have low toxicity to mammals, and reduced insect-born diseases, like malaria, yellow fever and typhus; consequently, in 1949, Dr. Paul Muller won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for discovering its insecticidal properties. However, in 1946 resistance to DDT by house flies was reported and, because of its widespread use, there were reports of harm to non-target plants and animals and problems with residues…. Research into pesticides continued and the 1970s and 1980s saw the introduction of the world’s greatest selling herbicide, glyphosate, the low use rate sulfonylurea and imidazolinone (imi) herbicides, as well as dinitroanilines and the aryloxyphenoxypropionate (fop) and cyclohexanediones (dim) families. For insecticides there was the synthesis of a 3rd generation of pyrethroids, the introduction of avermectins, benzoylureas and Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) as a spray treatment. This period also saw the introduction of the triazole, morpholine, imidazole, pyrimidine and dicarboxamide families of fungicides. As many of the agrochemicals introduced at this time had a single mode of action, thus making them more selective, problems with resistance occurred and management strategies were introduced to combat this negative effect….
John Unsworth

Pesticides and herbicides have also had a major impact on the yield per acre. Unless you have slaves to pull the weeds and pick off the insects, you are stuck with either chemicals or losing a large portion of your crops. BTDT — You have to spray apple trees or you can lose 99% of the crop to plum curculio, coddling moths, apple maggots and other pests. We had a pest that left brown trails throughout EVERY SINGLE APPLE!

MEAT

January 31, 2022 – Are American Meatpacking Plants in Danger?

Currently, four companies produce around 80% of all the meat in our grocery stores and the Biden administration says that decentralization will create lower prices for consumers and higher profits for farmers. Cargill, Tyson, JBS, and National Beef Packing control 85% of the beef market, 54% of the poultry, and 70% of pork. Fifty years ago, these four firms only slaughtered 25% of cattle…. In the beef industry fifty years ago, ranchers received an average of 60 cents of every dollar a consumer spent on beef. The average is now 39 cents. In that same time frame, hog farmers have dropped to 19 cents from 40 to 60 cents. With decreasing profits for our nation’s farmers and ranchers, increased prices in the grocery store, will these new efforts be the solution to equitable food systems in the United States?
Producers Voice

Mr Global’s long term goal has been to completely change the US meat based diet — a diet that is the basis of American exceptionalism – to a diet that barely sustains life and certainly discourages revolts. For example the height of Japanese male students at age 17 has increase by 10 cm since WWII as eating beef became more acceptable. LINK and LINK

Meat provides the easiest access to critical nutrients and energy during the fast growth of the fetus and child.

Role of red meat in the diet for children and adolescents.

SUMMARY

Meat plays a central role in the diet, providing a significant contribution to the intakes of 10 key nutrients: energy, protein, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, iron and zinc. In young children, an over-dependence on milk may put young children at increased risk of poor iron status, owing to its displacement of iron-rich or iron-enhancing foods from the diet. This risk becomes nonsignificant when moderate to high amounts of iron-rich or iron-enhancing foods (e.g. meat and fruit, respectively) are also consumed. A study performed on infants in the UK has shown that the addition of meat powder to a weaning food has a marked enhancing effect on the absorption of iron, (38) which reinforces the fact that lean red meat is not only an appropriate weaning food but should be considered an essential food during the critical stages of brain development

MR GLOBAL TELEGRAPHS HIS WAR ON THE AMERICAN DIET

Mr Global has been targeting meat and our middle class life style since the 1972 First Earth Summit chaired by Maurice Strong. (Strong was also the co-chair of the World economic forum — SURPRISE!) In 1992, Chairman Strong told the Earth Summit in Kyoto…

“It is clear that current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class, involving high meat intake, consumption of large amounts of frozen and convenience foods, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work place air conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable.”

Maurice Strong

The same propaganda was repeated by WTO Director-General Pascal Lamy in 2011.

“climate change negotiations are not just about the global environment but global economics as well — the way that technology, costs and growth are to be distributed and shared… Can we balance the need for a sustainable planet with the need to provide billions with decent living standards? Can we do that without questioning radically the Western way of life? “
Pascal Lamy: Whither Globalization? – The Globalist

A vegan life style was then ‘presented as a health issue’ by the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee as the excuse to ram radical changes down the throats of Americans. However it has nothing to do with health. The US government’s concern for the health of Americans does not play given the FDA has routinely over looked “…significant departures from good clinical practice, such as underreporting of adverse events, violations of protocol, violations of recruitment guidelines, and various forms of scientific misconduct…. or submission of false information… The FDA does not typically notify journals …nor make any announcement intended to alert the public about the research misconduct that it finds. The documents the agency discloses [FOIA] tend to be heavily redacted. As a result, it is usually very difficult, or even impossible, to determine which published clinical trials are implicated by the FDA’s allegations of research misconduct.” –— Research misconduct identified by the US Food and Drug Administration: out of sight, out of mind, out of the peer-reviewed literature

In an article for Slate, study author Charles Seife said the FDA repeatedly hides evidence of fraud from both the public and trusted scientific advisers. In at least one case, falsified data in a trial comparing chemotherapies led to a patient’s death.
SEE: The FDA Underreports Scientific Misconduct In Peer-Reviewed Articles: The Benefits Of Negative Science

So why are Americans suddenly going to be forced into a change in eating habits?

The chair of DGAC told us why and it has NOTHING to do with health and everything to do with Agenda 21 aka Sustainability. She said:

“After 30 years of waiting, the fact that this committee is addressing sustainability issues brings me a lot of pleasure,” she began. Clancy went on to advocate that Americans should become vegetarians in order to achieve sustainability in the face of “climate change.”...
Clancy said beef production is the “greatest concern.”
Washington Free Beacon

That statement certainly sounds like the DGAC is more concerned with Sustainability than with the health of Americans. So beef production, not the health of Americans are the ‘greatest concern’ Gee thanks for telling us that up front.

On top of that is this article: Hospitals to begin monitoring your credit card purchases to Flag ‘Unhealthy’ Habits

What you buy at the grocery store, where you live, and even your membership status at the local gym are all subject to a new data collection scheme by the American medical system. Reports indicate that hospitals and doctors’ offices all across the country are now collecting this and other personal information in order to target individuals deemed to have “unhealthy” lifestyle habits that put them at high risk of disease.
Bloomberg reports that hospital systems in both North and South Carolina as well as Pennsylvania have already begun tracking people’s food-purchasing habits by spying on them through public records and credit card transactions. Carolinas HealthCare System (CHS), which operates some 900 care centers throughout the Carolinas, has teamed up with a data-mining company to compile and track this information for the later purpose of calling “high-risk” folks and urging them to make a change.
“What we are looking to find are people before they end up in trouble,” stated Michael Dulin, chief clinical officer for analytics and outcomes at CHS, to Bloomberg. “The idea is to use big data and predictive models to think about population health and drill down to the individual levels to find someone running into trouble that we can reach out to and try to help out.”
Jonathan Benson, Natural News

And just to give you the warm fuzzies, Why Is the USDA Buying Submachine Guns with 30-Round Magazines? (2014) Are those bullets for our livestock or for USA farmers?

HOW DO THEY PLAN TO CHANGE USA EATING HABITS?

ObamaCare to spy on us and The Food Safety Modernization Act. For example:

The 2009 Food Safety Modernization Act as it goes into effect will regulate the manufacturers of ethanol IF the byproduct, distillers grains, goes into animal feed. This will cause a major increase in the price of livestock feed and/or cause the manufacturers of ethanol and distillers grains to say the hell with it and send the distillers grain off to be pelleted for the energy companies to burn instead. It will be a lot less headache for the livestock grain pelleters, if they switch the production plant from livestock feed to energy company pellets. Cost of material, such as mineral and vitamin additives and regulations will drop through the floor. So what’s not to like?

Corn Primed for Making Biofuel
April 16, 2008
Researchers genetically modify a crop to break down its own cellulose.
Last year, new federal regulations called for production of renewable fuels to increase to 36 billion gallons annually–nearly five times current levels–by 2022. Today, nearly all fuel ethanol in the United States is produced from corn kernels. To meet the required increase, researchers are turning to other sources, such as cellulose, a complex carbohydrate found in all plants. Corn leaves and stems, prairie grasses, and wood chips are leading candidates for supplies of cellulose. Cellulosic ethanol has many advantages over that produced from corn kernels. Cellulose is not only extremely abundant and inexpensive; studies also suggest that the production and use of ethanol from cellulose could yield fewer greenhouse gases…
Enzymes that degrade cellulose, called cellulases, are typically produced by microbes grown inside large bioreactors, an expensive and energy-intensive process. “In order to make cellulosic ethanol really competitive, we really need to bring those costs down,”…
MIT

25 X 25 INITIATIVE

H.Con.Res. 369 (109th): Expressing the support of Congress for the “25 x ‘25” initiative, which envisions that farm, forestry, and ranch lands in the United States will provide by 2025 at least 25 percent of the energy consumed in the United States, and, in furtherance of the “25 x ‘25” initiative, promoting the …… increased production of renewable energy by the forestry and agricultural communities.
109^th Congress.

One big problem, Like Solar and Wind Turbines, biofuel is not really an Energy savings.

Cornell University and University of California-Berkeley study:

In terms of energy output compared with energy input for ethanol production, the study found that:

• corn requires 29 percent more fossil energy than the fuel produced;

• switch grass requires 45 percent more fossil energy than the fuel produced; and

• wood biomass requires 57 percent more fossil energy than the fuel produced.

Funny how those universities have now reversed their stance on that…

PLUM ISLAND

Plum Island Animal Disease Center | Homeland Security – dhs.gov

Since 1954, the DHS S&T Office of National Laboratories (ONL) Plum Island Animal Disease Center (PIADC) has served as the nation’s premier defense against accidental or intentional introduction of transboundary animal diseases (a.k.a. foreign animal diseases) including foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and African Swine Fever (ASF). PIADC is the only laboratory in the nation that can work on live FMD virus (FMDV).

Plum Island was a Bio-Level 4 lab however it has had a couple of accidental releases. . In 1978, an unknown disease was released into animals outside the center. Reports on that accident are classified. In 2004 there were not one but TWO releases of Foot and Mouth Disease. This was used by Senator Hillary Clinton and Congressman Tim Bishop to SOUND THE ALARM. They wrote to the Department of Homeland Security:

“We urge you to immediately investigate these alarming breaches at the highest levels, and to keep us apprised of all developments.”
Hillary Clinton and Tim Bishop

Plum Island, per a 2008 federal law requires the island to be sold off to the highest bidder once the Kansas biosafetly Level – 4 lab comes on line (Not sold as of Feb 2022)

Closing Of Plum Island Leaves Huge Clean-Up – rense.com

Before Patty Doyle’s Condo can be constructed on the Poison Plum Pork Chop Island, known as Doyle’s Plum Estates, the DHS will have to remove abandoned and polluted buildings, lead and asbestos abatment, removal of all RESEARCH CONTAMINATED MATERIAL AND conduct full BIOLOGICAL DECONTAMINATION. The soil may also contain chemicals and petroleum. Remember Prions may also be in the soil. The Vermont sheep infected with BSE [FAILLACE SHEEP INFECTION WAS NOT PROVEN! -GC] were experimented upon there and incinerated there and buried. We know that prions do not neutralize. Eons go by and the creamated prions are still infective. Some of the research biological contamination is comprised of bioweapons. Anthrax another possibility lurking in the soil of Doyle’s Plum Island Paradise Estates…..
Mr. Bishop said, “I and Senator [Hillary] Clinton lobbied heavily that the [new facility] not go to Plum Island. The decision not to build it at Plum Island is welcome.”...Still, he said, once the federal government had chosen a site for the new facility, “it became incumbent upon me and Senator [Charles] Schumer and whoever takes Senator Clinton’s place to lobby for another use of Plum Island.” With a significant amount of taxpayer money invested this year in Plum Island’s infrastructure, about $60 million, he said, “it was foolish to walk away from the facility.” At stake are about 300 jobs and the indirect economic benefits the site provides the East End…

So the National Bio and Agro-defense Facility (NBAF) were MOVED from PLUM ISLAND to Kansas, the middle of COW COUNTRY …

CONTINUED… EXACTLY WHEN IN JANUARY??? After Bite-me was in place?

In January 2020, USDA and DHS S&T signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to outline their ongoing strategic interagency partnership at NBAF focused on national security. The MOU establishes an initial framework for scientific collaboration and identifies current areas of opportunity for collaboration which include:
Threat Risk Assessment and Research Prioritization:
To determine which transboundary, emerging animal diseases and zoonotic pathogens present the greatest risk to animal health, human health and national security. Outputs from this work will inform the process for research prioritization at NBAF.
Research and Collaboration:
To support the related USDA and DHS S&T food and agriculture missions including threat characterization and classified research; RDT&E involving biological countermeasures (vaccines, biotherapeutics and diagnostics); subject matter expert collaboration and information sharing; and partnerships….
As of January 2022, the $1.25B NBAF project is approximately 98 percent complete. The facility’s main laboratory construction and commissioning activities were initiated in May 2015. The laboratory will not open until all necessary permits and registrations are received.

What is interesting is that PARTNERSHIP is NEW!

….On June 20, 2019, officials from the USDA and DHS signed a Memorandum of Agreement (PDF, 16pp, 165 KB) that formally outlined how the departments will transfer ownership and operational responsibility for the NBAF from the DHS Science and Technology Directorate to USDA.

….The new study expresses the government’s confidence it could avoid any outbreak. But it also cautioned that “should a large release occur there is considerable opportunity for the virus to cause infections and become established in the environment beyond the facility boundary.”
A simulated outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease – part of an earlier U.S. government exercise called “Crimson Sky” – ended with fictional riots in the streets after the simulation’s National Guardsmen were ordered to kill tens of millions of farm animals, so many that troops ran out of bullets. In the exercise, the government said it would have been forced to dig a ditch in Kansas 25 miles long to bury carcasses. [IS this simulation why the USDA has stockpiled bullets??? – GC]
The new study said U.S. economic losses from an outbreak could ultimately be higher than the $5 billion suffered by Britain in 2001, when an epidemic forced the government to slaughter 6 million sheep, cows and pigs.

Abstract and Figures
The foot and mouth disease (FMD) virus has high agro-terrorism potential because it is contagious, can be easily transmitted via inanimate objects and can be spread by wind. An outbreak of FMD in developed countries results in massive slaughtering of animals (for disease control) and disruptions in meat supply chains and trade, with potentially large economic losses…..
Although the FMD virus does not affect humans, the meats from infected animals are not used for food because the virus can spread rapidly through the meat processing supply chain. In addition, the virus can persist in human nasal passages for up to 36 hours and on shoes for 9 to 14 weeks [7]. us, an outbreak of FMD in developed countries results in massive slaughtering of animals (for disease control) and disruptions in meat supply chains and trade with potentially large economic losses…

October 3, 2002 Bio-terrorism Simulation – National Hog Farmer

National Pork Producers Council President-Elect Jon Caspers participated Sept. 30 in a simulated bio-terrorism exercise sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Caspers joined other agricultural officials observing USDA testing its capability in dealing with a possible attack on agriculture and its infrastructure. “Crimson Sky” was the first of six planned exercises

What is Depopulation?

on page 31:

“Should USDA officially confirm the presence of a disease, such as Foot and Mouth Disease, the affected herd and all cattle, sheep, goats, swine, and susceptible wildlife—infected or not— within a minimum 10-kilometer zone around the infected farm would be killed.”

Note they also mention extending that range indefinitely. They affectionately call this process “Depopulation” which is ever so euphemistic. All of this is without a warrant and no appeal. So much for your Constitutional rights and presumption of innocence.GO TO THE LINK BELOW AND READ THE MANUAL FOR YOURSELF!

MR. GLOBAL’S ATTACK on our FOOD SUPPLY — PART II

‘ The Socialist Revolution in the US cannot take place because there are too many small independent farmers there. Those people are the stability factor. We here in Russia must hurry while our government is stupid enough to not encourage and support the independent farmership.’
V. Lenin, the founder of the Russian revolution

1932 to 1937 — “The Collective Farm Policy was a terrible struggle, Ten million died. It was fearful. ” – Joseph Stalin

1934 — “[Our] future is becoming visible in Russia.” Assistant Secretary of Agriculture — Rexford Tugwell

“Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?” —Maurice Strong

“Each year, [Strong] explains as background to… the novel’s plot, the World Economic Forum convenes in Davos, Switzerland. Over 1,000 CEO’s, prime ministers, finance ministers, and leading academics gather in February to attend meetings and set economic agendas for the year ahead. With this as a setting, he then says: ‘What if a small group of these world leaders were to conclude that the principle risk to the earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? …In order to save the planet, the group decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring this about?’

“‘This group of world leaders,’ he continues, ‘forms a secret society to bring about an economic collapse. It’s February. They’re all at Davos. These aren’t terrorists. They’re world leaders. They have positioned themselves in the world’s commodities and stock markets. They’ve engineered, using their access to stock markets and computers and gold supplies, a panic….. This is Maurice Strong. He knows these world leaders. He is, in fact, co-chairman of the Council of the World Economic Forum. He sits at the fulcrum of power. He is in a position to do it. ‘I probably shouldn’t be saying things like this.'”

We cannot divorce what is happening to the US dollar from the food supply. In 2020, Americans allocated the highest proportion of their average pre-tax household income (APTHI) to housing (25.4%), transportation (11.6%), and food (8.7%). In 2022 food is expected to increase by 7.3% to 12.9%, transportation by 5.8% to 15.9%, and housing by 5.3% to 33.1%. LINK

Tucker Carlson does a great riff on the problem:

I already presented a chart on money devaluation. The price of gold indicates the steady devaluation of the US dollar as its purchasing power is diluted by the ever increasing supply of fiat money. This is important to know as we go into high gas prices ==> higher food prices. Now we are looking at the possibility that the US Dollar will lose its Reserve Currency Status. Some think that could cause the ‘exported inflation’ to come flooding back.

Inflation: The Biggest Export of the United States?

Alternate view from Gary North (Austrian Economist)

As of July 2013, currency in circulation—that is, U.S. coins and paper currency in the hands of the public—totaled about $1.2 trillion dollars. The amount of cash in circulation has risen rapidly in recent decades and much of the increase has been caused by demand from abroad. The Federal Reserve estimates that the majority of the cash in circulation today is outside the United States.
New York Fed

If you look at the price of gold, you can see how the value of the dollar has dropped and how the minimum wage no longer has the buying power it had in 1959. You could also look at minimum wage vs the price of a gallon of gas. From $0.31 in 1959 (minimum wage = $1.00 or 3.2 gal/hr in pay) to $4.41 on March 22, 2022 (minimum wage = $7.25 or 1.64 gal/hr in pay)

However the price of diesel fuel has even more of an impact than gasoline, on the cost of living. Before 1993, the allowable sulfur level in diesel fuel was 5,000 parts per million (ppm). From 1993 until 2006, allowable sulfur was 500 ppm. And beginning in 2006, EPA began to phase-in more stringent regulations to lower the amount of sulfur in diesel fuel to 15 ppm. This caused the cost of diesel to go from well below that of gasoline to $0.95 cents more than gasoline today. This has a major effect on the transportation costs of all commodities AND the production of food.

THE SET-UP BY MR GLOBAL

Four privately owned grain traders control 90% of the grain. They are Cargill, Louis Dreyfus, Andre, and Bunge. Dan Amstutz, who worked for 25 years as a grain trader and VP at Cargill drafted the original text of the WTO Agreement on Agriculture. He also wrote the 1996 Freedom to Farm Act that was passed a year after the USA entered the WTO. The Grain Traders say this about Amstutz: “Throughout his very successful career Dan Amstutz represented and championed the ideas and goals of NAEGA membership “ (That’s the North American Export Grain Association.) Dan Amstutz did not represent the interests of farmers or consumers when he wrote that draft, or that farm bill. Instead he represented the interests of the Transnational Ag Cartel.

Forty percent or more of the processing of all agricultural commodities in the Midwest are controlled by the four largest firms. Although debate continues in the United States and in other countries on what constitutes an oligopolistic or near oligopolistic market, much of the economic literature suggests that when four firms control 40% of the market they are able to exert influence on the market unlike that in a competitive system….

It’s interesting that in the time it took me to write this article the paper above was pulled from the internet. However it was captured by the Wayback Machine. The following article is also no longer available on the Internet, however it was not archived so I am reproducing what I saved here. (Remember this was the bill written by Dan Amstutz, the same guy who wrote the WTO Agreement on Ag.)

THE FREEDOM TO FARM ACT — (Senate hearing – March 28, 2000)

MR. WELLSTONE: Mr. President,…
…in 1996, both houses of Congress approved a new farm bill, described then as “the most sweeping change in agriculture since the Depression. It would get rid of government subsidies to farmers over the next seven years.”
….The bill has made sweeping changes in agriculture–it has produced one of the worst economic crises that rural American has ever experienced….The Freedom to Farm bill is not saving tax payers money, in fact we have spent $19 billion more in the first 4 years of the 1996 farm bill than was supposed to be spent through the 7 year life of the law….However, what has resulted is the precipitous loss of family farmers because this legislation has not provided small and moderate sized farmers with a safety net. Instead payment loopholes have been inserted in legislation that has allowed the largest argibusiness corporations to receive the lions share of government support.

In my State of Minnesota, family farm income has decreased 43 percent since 1996 and more than 25 percent of the remaining farms may not cover expenses for 2000….In addition, merger after merger in the agriculture sector leaves producers wondering if they will be able to survive amidst the new giants of agribusiness…. …unless we address the current trend of consolidation and vertical integration in corporate agriculture, nothing else we do to maintain the family size farms will succeed.The farm share of profit in the food system has been declining for over 20 years….From 1994 to 1998, consumer prices have increased 3 percent while the prices paid to farmers for their products has plunged 36 percent. Likewise, the impact of price disparity is reinforced by reports of record profits among agribusinesses at the same time producers are suffering an economic depression….In the past decade and a half, an explosion of mergers, acquisitions, and anti-competitive practices has raised concentration in American agriculture to record levels….

[long list of ag consolidation by product]
According to the economic literature, markets are no longer competitive if the top four firms control over 40 percent. In all the markets I just listed, the market share of the top four firms is 40 percent or more. So there really is no effective competition in these processing markets.But now, with this explosion of mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, marketing agreements, and anticompetitive behavior by the largest firms, these and other commodity markets are becoming more and more concentrated by the day…..

Freedom to Fail: How U.S. Farming Policies Have Helped Agribusiness And Pushed Family Farmers Toward Extinction

“ According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, almost 90 percent of the total income of rancher or farmer households now comes from outside earnings….
The driving force behind U.S. farm policy is the 1996 seven-year farm program titled the Federal Agricultural Improvement and Reform Act — with the ironic acronym (FAIR). The bill, dubbed “Freedom to Farm” by its bipartisan proponents, put an end to the New Deal system of production controls and eliminates federal price supports. It provides farmers with a guarantee of fixed but declining payments to end in 2002, and allows flexibility to plant whatever they like.

Prior to Freedom to Farm, if the price for a market commodity — such as soy, wheat or corn — dipped below the price floor, the government would cover the difference, thus ensuring that price wouldn’t fall below the cost of production. Freedom to Farm eliminated price floors and removed “production controls” including land set asides and farmer-owned grain reserves. By giving farmers some ability to limit the amount of commodities on the market, these policies had given farmers some control over the price for their crops. Finally, the FAIR legislation gradually transitions away to the point of eliminating farm programs after the year 2002….
The effects of Freedom to Farm have been immediate and devastating. Proponents touted the program as a way to increase exports and the price of crops. But “Freedom to Farm” has failed miserably on both accounts. Exports of corn, wheat, soybeans and sorghum have dropped by nearly 10 percent since enactment of Freedom to Farm. More importantly, prices have collapsed, with corn going from $3.24 a bushel in 1995-1996 to $1.90 in 1999-2000, wheat dropping from $4.55 to $2.50, soybeans declining from $6.72 to $4.70 and sorghum plummeting from $3.19 to $1.60…..

When people started learning that farmers were losing money growing food the USDA SPRANG INTO ACTION. They revised the calculating method and started including the hypothetical RENTAL VALUE OF THE HOME AS PART OF THE FARM INCOME!

LAND CLEARANCES

The last time the Banksters collapsed the US economy they stole all the privately held US gold, thanks to FDR. This time they want our land. And not just USA farmland but everyone’s. LINK

Removing farmers from the land to increase profit and to provide cheap labor for factories is nothing new.

The Highland Clearances

In the late 1700s and early to mid 1800s Crofters and highlanders were systematically removed from their lands and their livelihoods to make way for sheep farming which was much more profitable at that time. The first mass emigration was in 1792 when many of the people were forced to leave the land that had been farmed by them and their forefathers to go to America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Those that did not emigrate were forced to live in cities or on poor unfarmable land by the rugged sealine. They were not sea farers and did not know how to make a living from the sea. Often their small crofts and out buildings were razed to the ground with fire. Sometimes with the elderly still in them.
These brutal Highland clearances devastated the Gaelic culture, split up families and clans and removed entire communities from the lands that they had farmed for centuries leaving them no option but to emigrate for a better life, as in Scotland they were left fairly destitute.
Many of those that did not emigrate were instead moved to cities such as Glasgow. In 1840, as many as 30,000 Gaelic speaking highlanders moved from farming their small tracts of land and tending a few animals to the English speaking city where they had no skills and were forced into factories. The population grew so quickly that housing was a huge problem with many families sharing one room….

History, HACCP and the Food Safety Con Job

With World War II, America saw its agricultural system intentionally subjected to political policies that radically transformed it. What was once a decentralized system that provided a means to self sufficiency and independence for tens of millions of farmers was purposefully centralized into a capital-intensive fossil-fuel dependent system that restructured local economies, permitting their wealth to be extracted by what are now transnational cartels dedicated to the so-called free market and globalized trade at all cost.
This transformation was the result of organized plans developed by a group of highly powerful – though unelected – financial and industrial executives who wanted to drastically change agricultural practices in the US to better serve their collective corporate financial agenda. This group, called the Committee for Economic Development, was officially established in 1942 as a sister organization to the Council on Foreign Relations. [Both belong to The Rhodes/Milner/Round Table Group -GC] CED has influenced US domestic policies in much the same way that the CFR has influenced the nation’s foreign policies.[1]
Composed of chief executive officers and chairmen from the federal reserve, the banking industry, private equity firms, insurance companies, railroads, information technology firms, publishing companies, pharmaceutical companies, the oil and automotive industries, meat packing companies, retailers and assisted by university economists – representatives from every sector of the economy with the key exception of farmers themselves –
CED determined that the problem with American agriculture was that there were too many farmers. But the CED had a “solution”: millions of farmers would just have to be eliminated.
In a number of reports written over a few decades, CED recommended that farming “resources” – that is, farmers – be reduced. In its 1945 report “Agriculture in an Expanding Economy,” CED complained that “the excess of human resources engaged in agriculture is probably the most important single factor in the ‘farm problem'” and describes how agricultural production can be better organized to fit to business needs.[2] A report published in 1962 entitled “An Adaptive Program for Agriculture”[3] is even more blunt in its objectives, leading Time Magazine to remark that CED had a plan for fixing the identified problem: “The essential fact to be faced, argues CED, is that with present high levels farm productivity, more labor is involved in agriculture production that the market demands – in short, there are too may farmers. To solve that problem, CED offers a program with three main prongs.”….

Sound familiar?

And do not forget that NAFTA plus taxpayer-subsidized grain in the EU and the USA was used to wipe out Mexican farmers. “…According to a study by Jose Romero and Alicia Puyana carried out for the federal government of Mexico, between 1992 and 2002, the number of agricultural households fell an astounding 75% – from 2.3 million to 575, 000…” Small Farmers And The Doha Round: Lessons From Mexico’s NAFTA Experience

Betting the farm – CNN

As world population expands, the demand for arable land should soar. At least that’s what George Soros, Lord Rothschild, and other investors believe….

And if you cannot buy it at the ‘right price’ then you go and drive farmers & ranchers off their land. Most are aware of the Bundy ranch mess. The Bureau of Land Management director was Sen. Harry Reid’s (D-Nev.) former senior adviser. A commenter checked out Nevada land transfers and found BLM was grabbing ranches and transferring ownership to Harry Reid’s family members for a $1.00. The BLM’s official reason for encircling the Bundy family with sniper teams and helicopters was to protect the endangered desert tortoise, which the agency had previously been killing in mass due to “budget constraints.” However the BLM has purged documents from its web site stating that the agency wanted Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy’s cattle off of the land his family had worked for over 140 years in order to make way for solar panel power stations. Free Republic reposted the BLM documents for posterity. One of them, entitled “Cattle Trespass Impacts” directly states that Bundy’s cattle “impacts” solar development, specifically the construction of “utility-scale solar power generation facilities” on “public lands.” Rory Reid (Sen. Harry Reid’s eldest son) represents the Chinese firm ENN Energy Group and JA Solar…. GEE he sounds like Hunter Biden doesn’t he?

L.A. County’s Private Property War – The Antelope Valley Land Clearance

…..On Oct. 17, 2007, Marcelle opened the door to a loud knock. Her heart jumped when she found a man backed by two armed county agents in bulletproof vests. She was alone in the cabin, a dot in the vast open space of the Antelope Valley, without a neighbor for more than half a mile. She feared that something had happened to her daughter, who was visiting from Montreal.
“It has a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, all that.” Joey Gallo, a disabled vet facing homelessness under county orders, with his friend Lucky.
The men demanded her driver’s license, telling her, “This building is not permitted — everything must go.” Normally sassy, Marcelle handed over her ID — even her green card, just in case. Stepping out, she realized that her 1,000-square-foot cabin was surrounded by men with drawn guns. “You have no right to be here,” one informed her. Baffled and shaking with fear, she called her daughter — please come right away.
As her ordeal wore on, she heard one agent, looking inside their comfortable cabin, say to another: “This one’s a real shame — this is a real nice one.”
A “shame” because the authorities eventually would enact some of the most powerful rules imaginable against rural residents: the order to bring the home up to current codes or dismantle the 26-year-old cabin, leaving only bare ground.
“They wouldn’t let me grandfather in the water tank,” Jacques Dupuis says. “It is so heart-wrenching because there was a way to salvage this, but they wouldn’t work with me. It was, ‘Tear it down. Period.’ ”
In order to clear the title on their land, the Dupuises are spending what would have been peaceful retirement days dismantling every board and nail of their home — by hand — because they can’t afford to hire a crew.
Tough code enforcement has been ramped up in these unincorporated areas of L.A. County, leaving the iconoclasts who chose to live in distant sectors of the Antelope Valley frightened, confused and livid. They point the finger at the Board of Supervisors’ Nuisance Abatement Teams, known as NAT, instituted in 2006 by Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael Antonovich in his sprawling Fifth District. The teams’ mission: “to abate the more difficult code violations and public nuisance conditions on private property.”
L.A. Weekly found in a six-week investigation that county inspectors and armed DA investigators also are pursuing victimless misdemeanors and code violations, with sometimes tragic results. The government can define land on which residents have lived for years as “vacant” if their cabins, homes and mobile homes are on parcels where the land use hasn’t been legally established. Some have been jailed for defying the officials in downtown Los Angeles, while others have lost their savings and belongings trying to meet the county’s “final zoning enforcement orders.” Los Angeles County has left some residents, who appeared to be doing no harm, homeless…..

Turns out that Our old friend Warren Buffet was the one who ultimately benefited from this set of Land Clearances.

25x’25: Increasing Agriculture’s Role in Domestic Energy

HOUSE AGRICULTURE COMMITTEE LEADERSHIP — 10/11/06
The following is a joint post from the Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Agriculture Committee, Va. GOP Rep. Bob Goodlatte and Minn. Dem. Rep. Collin Peterson:
Despite the decline in gasoline prices, asserting our nation’s energy independence continues to be a challenge. To move us closer toward the goal of greater energy independence, the House of Representatives recently passed a resolution that established a goal of producing 25 percent of the all energy consumed in the U.S. on America’s farms, ranches and forests by the year 2025, an initiative known as 25x’25
H. Con. Res. 424

So there is a LOT of money to be made in using former farmland to produce green energy. I will address some of that in the next article.

The Other ½ of the Land Grab is Verticalization

These are feel good articles but they give you an idea of what is happening.

Vertical Integration – National Chicken Council

Vertical integration of the broiler industry allows producers to combine different biosecurity and sanitation practices, housing technologies and feeding regimens to improve food safety. This structure allows greater governance over each aspect of food safety from the breeder farm to the hatchery through the processing plant.

Vertical integration allows the industry to maintain strict biosecurity measures, vaccination programs and testing for bacteria such as Salmonella at breeder farms and hatcheries. In the feed mill, feed is frequently heat-treated to prevent the spread of any bacteria between the feed and the birds. At the grow out house, strict biosecurity measures, pest management control and the “all in all out” concept controls the spread of disease between the birds, houses and flocks.

Once the birds are removed from the grow out houses, they are promptly delivered to the processing plant where strict testing regimes are in place throughout the plant to minimize the spread of bacteria.

Strict records are maintained and steam lined throughout the entire process regarding testing results, vaccination schedules, biosecurity and sanitation protocols.

Growing chickens under contract
Today, more than 90 percent of all chickens raised for human consumption in the United States are produced by independent farmers working under contract with integrated chicken production and processing companies. Most of the other ten percent are company-owned farms and less than one percent are raised by individual growers.

The contract growing system provides many farmers an additional source of income outside of crop farming, livestock farming, or production of other agriculture commodities. When growers enter into an agreement with a chicken processor to raise broilers, they get a guaranteed market and thus avoid market risk (that is, the risk of being unable to sell their products or having to sell at a loss). They also have a reliable source of income and access to production resources such as “technical advice, managerial expertise, market knowledge, and . . . technological advances” (ERS, USDA, 1999) provided by the company.

Contract terms vary from company to company; most outline the division of responsibility between growers and contractors. In general the “grower cares for the chickens, and usually provides land and housing facilities, utilities, labor, and other operating expenses, such as repairs and maintenance . . . The contractor provides chicks, feed, veterinary supplies and services, management services or field personnel, and transportation for the birds to and from the farm” (ERS, USDA, 1999).
Through the contract growing system, processors reduce uncertainties in production and marketing by controlling quality and quantity of their products, and diversify their operations to better meet consumer demands of high quality, economical chicken products.

The chicks are hatched at company-owned hatcheries, vaccinated against poultry diseases, and delivered to the grower’s farm, where he (or she) houses them in large, specialized structures called growout houses. The company also delivers feed, which the farmer distributes to the flock through a mechanical system.

When the birds reach market age and weight in six or seven weeks, the farmer is paid on the basis of weight gained by the flock, which is influenced by the farmer’s skill and good management. This incentive system is considered a time-honored way of rewarding growers who do a better-than-average job. Successful farmers are committed to the business and understand the need to improve their facilities and adapt to changing conditions….

The Food Safety Modernization act regulated independent farmers out of business. It also transferred liability from the corporate processing plant to the farmer via “tracability.’ We looked into raising chickens on our farm. What they do not mention is you are actually paid about a $1.00 an hour for your labor. (If your kids are doing a lot of the labor, then it is not as big a deal.) You have to have chicken houses that meet USDA standards (Remember the new regulations?) and these are SOLD TO YOU by the corporation. Funny how those standards change just after you have paid those houses off so you have to buy NEW. Just like the truck driving companies that lease/sell you the truck you drive, you end up a slave to the corporation via contract. SEE: Lease Owner Operator Plans – 10 Reasons to RUN the Other Way!

China’s Shuanghui to Buy Smithfield Foods – WSJ

China’s largest meat processor struck a surprise $4.7 billion agreement to acquire Smithfield Foods, a deal that would mark the biggest Chinese takeover of an American company. Shuanghui’s offer was a 31% premium to Smithfield’s Tuesday closing price of $25.97 on the New York Stock Exchange. The company’s shares jumped 28% to close at $33.35 Wednesday following [the] news

Smithfield Food’s Vertical Integration Strategy

…..Their core business focus was on mainly pork, and beef to a lesser extent. The company opted for an aggressive growth strategy which is primarily based on amongst others a geographic expansion:
They carried out 32 acquisitions since 1981. They expanded into foreign markets – Smithfield made acquisitions in Canada, France, Romania and Poland. Acquired meat processors in Poland and Romania; including a hog farming operation in the latter country….Most importantly, they followed a vertical integration strategy into the pork business: This entailed a full or partial integration (depending on location), with operations ranging from operations in hog farming, feed mill, meat packing plants and distribution. They also carried out joint ventures . Established joint ventures in Spain, Mexico, and China …

Lessons From Smithfield Foods

COMPANY STRATEGY
In 2001 Smithfield outlined its strategy as having four pillars:
(1) vertical integration,
(2) advanced genetics, [Remember Monsanto’s Pig Patents.]
(3) strategic acquisitions and
(4) value-added & branded products

Living High on the Hog: Factory Farms, Federal Policy, and the Structural Transformation of Swine Production
(THINK OF CHINA’s PURCHASE of Smithfield when reading this:)

Feeding the Factory Farm The significance of these findings is clear. To the extent that federal farm policy has reduced the market prices for the main components of hog feed, it has reduced costs for operations that buy feed—specialized, industrialized operations. We calculate the cost savings to industrial operations at an average of $947 million per year between 1997 and 2005, or a total of $8.52 billion over the nine-year period. This discount was not available to smaller operations that grew their own feed. The availability of low-priced hog feed on the market may have contributed to a structural transformation in hog production, encouraging the growth of industrial operations by giving them a cost advantage over diversified competitors. These cost advantages may have had less to do with efficiency gains accruing to larger operations than with U.S. government policies that reduced corn and soybean prices below production costs.

So American tax payers are paying to feed Chinese owned hogs and Cattle and Poultry…

How vertical integration is impacting food and Agribusiness

…Vertical integration, by definition, is the combination in one company of two or more stages of production normally operated by separate companies. This is typically done for reasons that tie back to quality control, reduced costs through economies of scale and even increased market share due to the high barriers of entry.
Backward integration occurs when a company acquires a key supplier or takes over a process typically done earlier in the value chain. In recent years, retailers have taken the spotlight, with a few exceptions, as follows:
Kroger, Albertsons, Meijer vertically integrate dairy products: Milk, cheese, butter and ice cream are commonly sold under a private label and these companies have set up manufacturing sites and dairy farms to bring production in-house. As of 2018, Kroger produced around 40% of its private label milk in-house.²
Walmart opens 250,000-square-foot milk processing facility in Fort Wayne, Indiana: The move will expand Walmart’s in-house private label milk brands. The company began production in late 2018.³
Costco announces a $400m investment in poultry production facility in Nebraska: The company will control every aspect — from egg hatcheries through to the processing of birds. Costco expects production to begin in late 2019 and ramp up to full production over one to two years.4
Amazon acquires Whole Foods for over $13b: Amazon now has access to customer data, private-label product lines and several hundred physical locations that are visited by affluent consumers.
General Mills partners with Gunsmoke Farms to convert 34,000 acres (53 square miles) of farmland in South Dakota to organic: This will guarantee a stronger supply of wheat for their organic brand Annie’s, which can be tailored to General Mills’ standards.5
Walmart creates its own supply chain for Angus beef: “As clean labels, traceability and transparency become more and more important to customers, we’ve made plans to enter into the beef industry creating an unmatched system that allows us to deliver consistent quality and value,” said Scott Neal, Senior Vice President, Meat, Walmart U.S. “By enlisting a number of best-in-class companies to take part in the supply chain, we’ll be able to provide customers with unprecedented quality, provide transparency throughout the supply chain and leverage the learnings we gain across our business.”

What we the consumer are never told is that once penetration pricing strategy (below cost) is used to capture a major market share, by bankrupting the small competitors, a business can then set a price to maximize profitability. Of course when all of those companies have interlocking boards….

The State of Corporate Concentration, 2013

TIMELINE of MR GLOBAL’S TAKEOVER OF FOOD PRODUCTION

First a bit about different farming philosophies.

Companion Planting, a favorite with organic farmers.

Native Americans were our first farmers, including the Cherokee, who adopted and adapted an interdependent farming system known colloquially as the Three Sisters. The main characters are corn, beans, and squash or pumpkin, called selu, tuya, and iya in the Cherokee language. Each of them provided foodstuffs, of course, but their role wasn’t singular. Farmers hilled up the three together in mounds, not rows. The cornstalks formed the center pole, giving the beans purchase to climb sunward. Nodules on the weblike bean roots returned vital nitrogen to the soil. Broad squash leaves shaded the ground, slowing evaporation, and the plant itself produced an allelopathic substance that reduced weeds when it washed off in the rain. Meanwhile, the prickly hairs on the ropey squash vines deterred marauding animals….
The Three Sisters

What is often left out, is this type of farming, although it is labor intensive produces more food per acre than mono-cropping according to a study by ETH Zurich.

Traditional farming.

This type of farming takes into account the type of land and the interplay of animals and plants. Crops are best on well watered, flat fertile land without rocks. (It is amazing how New England soil can GROW ROCKS each year.) Hay can be grown on more hilly & rocky ground. The steepest ground can be used for pastures, orchards or woodlots. Pigs can be run under the trees in orchards to eat the dropped fruit that are likely full of bugs or in woodlots to scrounge for acorns, insects and other eatables . They are also great ‘garbage disposals’. Chickens and other fowl do a great job of eating the bugs that attack crops and fruit trees. Manure and crop rotation keep the soil in good shape and if a field becomes poor, grass with clover (a nitrogen fixing legume) can be planted and livestock run on it for a few years to return it to productive health. Various sources suggest agricultural land is split into 70% pastureland, and 30% arable/crop land. Vegans seems to miss this point. Much of the land that is flat, is fine for pasture but too dry for crops. Plant Types: I. C3 Plants, Comparison With C4 and Cam Plants

Köppen Climate Classification Map

Monoculture farming

This type of industrial farming grows a single crop usually using lots of fertilizers, pesticides and water. Without crop rotation it exhausts the soil. In animals it is called CAFO “concentrated animal feeding operation” These CAFOs are based on feeding large quantities of TAXPAYER SUBSIDIZED grain in a confined area, where the animals are often fed antibiotics to prevent illness from crowding and the overfeeding of grain. The main goal is to make $$$ and not to preserve the land for the next generation. My farm lost over two foot of top soil in 50 years according to the 1945 county soil survey. This was thanks to monoculture tobacco farming. It was sold because there was no organic matter left in the soil and therefore would no longer produce a decent crop.

TIMELINE

1944 to 2009

The Milner Round Table called the Committee for Economic Development, was officially established in the USA in 1942 as a sister organization to the Council on Foreign Relations. “In its 1945 report “Agriculture in an Expanding Economy,” CED complained that “the excess of human resources engaged in agriculture is probably the most important single factor in the ‘farm problem'” and describes how agricultural production can be better organized to fit to business needs” Meanwhile “World Bank and IMF use the loans they provide countries to prescribe policies and major changes in the economies of these countries.” —The World Bank: Hazardous to Africa’s Health

1948: failed attempt to create an International Trade Organization

1948 to 1994: The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)

SPS measures were found in the original GATT Articles, mainly Article XX “General Exceptions,” and later in the 1979 Tokyo Round Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade, a plurilateral agreement known as the Standards Code. The intent of the Agreement was to ensure that when SPS (Sanitary and Phytosanitary) measures were applied, they were used only to the extent necessary to ensure food safety and animal and plant health, and not to unduly restrict market access for other countries (James and Anderson, 1998; Roberts, 1998).
Giselle of Alaska

1957 Poultry Products Inspection Act — These acts mandate sensory or organoleptic (sight, smell, and touch) inspection of all carcasses. This was why the USA used to have the safest food in the world.

1961 PVP is the Plant Variety Protection — The International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants: Gave seed companies a monopoly on only the commercial multiplication and the marketing of seeds.

1980 the Supreme Court decision in Diamond v. Chakrabarthy, 447 U.S. 303 enabled living organisms to be patented

1986 Global commodity prices slumped in the mid eighties Pressure from commodity exporters inspired a decision to pursue Agricultural Policy reform at Uruguay round of GATT. It was lead by Under Secretary of Agriculture Dan Amstutz. <=== A REALLY NASTY PERSON!

Launched in 1986, the General Agreement on Tariffs & Trade (GATT) Uruguay Round of international trade talks has been dominated by a confrontation between the US and the EC over farm policy reform. Both sides proclaim their commitment to devising a GATT regime which will bring an end to the anarchy in world agricultural markets, yet neither is willing to address the underlying cause of the present malaise: structural over-production in their own farm sectors and the resulting accumulation of surpluses. The use of export subsidies to put these surpluses on to world markets caused developing countries severe trade and food security problems in the 1980s; and a Uruguay Round deal is unlikely to bring any relief. What it will do, however, is introduce new regulations which, enshrined in international trade law, will restrict the right of developing countries to manage their own food systems. Most importantly, the use of trade measures to control food imports and price support measures to promote staple food production could be severely constrained, or banned, by a ‘farm superpower’ GATT agreement. http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~content=a769339885~db=all (Defunct URL)

The U.S. comprehensive proposal for agricultural trade reform in October 1989 covered:

*     market access: convert all nontariff barriers to bound tariffs;
make substantial cuts in these and existing tariffs over 10 years;
use tariff rate quotas and safeguard measures to facilitate transition;
-     export competition: phase out export subsidies over five years;
prohibit export restrictions on foodstuffs imposed because of short domestic supplies;
*     internal support: phase out most trade-distorting measures;
discipline those that interfere less; permit those with small
trade effect that meet specific criteria;
*     sanitary and phytosanitary measures: place these under an international process for dispute settlement and harmonization.  http://www-wds.worldbank.org/external/default/WDSContentServer/WDSP/IB/1999/12/30/000178830_98101901511298/.../multi_page.txt (now unavailable to the serfs)

1991 PVP monopoly has applied to seed multiplication and also to the harvest and sometimes the final product as well. Previously unlimited right of farmers to save seed for the following year’s planting has been changed into an optional exception. Only if national government allows, can farm-saved seed still be used, and a royalty has to be paid to the seed company even for seeds grown on-farm.

2008 Efforts of Food inspectors to bring problems with HACCP ignored by USDA management

Apr 17, 2008 Testimony:Mr. Stan Painter, Chairman, National Joint Council of Food Inspection Locals:

December 2004 Union president Stan Painter receive reports from union member that SRM regulations are not uniformly enforced. Painter writes to the Assistant FSIS Administrator for Field Operation about enforcement problem. USDA responses by placed Painter on disciplinary investigation status and contacts the USDA Office of Inspector General about filing criminal charges…..It (the recall of Hallmark/Westland Meat) highlights one of the problems that we have attempted to raise with the agency ever since 1996 when the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) inspection system was put in place. There seems to be too much reliance on an honor system for the industry to police itself. While the USDA investigation is still on going at Hallmark/Westland, a couple of facts have emerged that point to a system that can be gamed by those who want to break the law. It (HACCP) shifted the responsibility for food safety over to the companies .
Stan Painter

December 2004 Freedom of Information Act requests
August 2005 Over 1000 non-compliance reports – weighing some 16 pounds — were turned over

Republicans have up more recent testimony by Stan Painter: (2012)

When the Hallmark/Westland scandal broke in 2008, the agency promised Congress that FSIS inspectors would receive additional training to enforce the provisions of the HMSA. All we received was an on‐line training module that we could access on the internet to refresh our responsibilities under the Act. There was no follow‐up by the agency management to emphasize the importance of enforcing the provisions of the Act.
Stan Painter

This is a transcript of the USDA patting Stan Painter and John Munsell on the head before blowing them off: Stan Painter was not invited….”I mean I know the Agency invited Stan Painter (ph.) but unfortunately they didn’t give him his authorization code. So he’s not here. So we have no inspectors here….”

This is the Senate hearing where Stan Painter is ripped to shreds by the USDA – FSIS.

…Question. Is USDA’s investigation of union president Stan Painter retaliatory?
Answer. USDA’s investigation into the validity of allegations that Specified Risk Material (SRM) regulations are not being effectively carried out or properly enforced was conducted solely to ensure the safety of our Nation’s food supply.
Question. Stan Painter, the president of the food inspectors union, set forth a series of concerns about SRM removal in a letter to the agency in early December. I understand that FSIS has responded to the letter by launching a personal investigation of Mr. Painter. In January, for example, FSIS flew Mr. Painter to Washington DC and questioned him for 3 hours, to try to get him to divulge the sources of his information. However, FSIS has a database of non-compliance reports, which should document instances in which inspectors have reported non-compliance with SRM removal. Why has FSIS chosen to investigate Mr. Painter personally instead of addressing the questions and concerns raised by his letter?
Answer. In a December 8, 2004, letter, the chairman of the National Joint Council of Food Inspection Locals made unsubstantiated and non-specific allegations that FSIS is not properly enforcing regulations requiring the removal of Specified Risk Materials (SRMs) from beef products. Because of the serious nature of the allegations contained in Mr. Painter’s Letter, FSIS immediately initiated an inquiry into those allegations which included an informal interview of the union chairman. During that interview, Mr. Painter refused to provide specific information to support the letter’s allegations. That inquiry subsequently resulted in a formal investigation by FSIS to determine the validity of the allegations. As part of that investigation, Mr. Painter was formally interviewed on two occasions in January. The FSIS investigation has been completed and the allegations concerning improper enforcement of SRM regulations were not substantiated..… [Remember the FOIA request resulted in Over 1000 non-compliance reports – weighing some 16 pounds — being turned over…]

2001 Issues for the Agricultural Talks and WTO Trade Round:

“The un-scientific so-called “precautionary principle” is unfortunately being successfully and constantly misused as justification to immobilize science and its applications, as well as to confuse the public. ..The so-called principle, which is in fact a concept rather than a principle, is indeed a wonderful tool to avoid delicate political decision. .. the so-called precautionary principle – in reality a concept rather than a scientific principle – should not be used as a tool to stop innovation, even under the guise of a moratorium, which is what has happened in the EU today. There will always be scientific uncertainty in any scientific field and reasonable approaches to risk management must be adopted to manage this uncertainty. Prohibition must only be used as an extreme risk management tool. Abuses of the precaution concept to justify political positions, or to cloak distorting import restriction policies, should equally be avoided and expressively exposed. The European Commission’s recent white paper was helpful in clarifying the limits to be set on the use of the so-called “precautionary principle.” …. The internationalization of the food chain demands that identification, registration, tracking and tracing systems also become internationalized. — Mr Auxenfans

2002 Effect of new Ag policies on farmers in USA and Mexico:

FTAA is essentially an expansion of NAFTA. But NAFTA has proven to be a nightmare for working families and the environment. A look at NAFTA’s legacy shows why these kinds of “free trade” agreements should be opposed. Working families suffer: In the US, more than 765,000 jobs have disappeared as a result of NAFTA. When these laid off workers find new jobs, they earn 23 percent less on average than at their previous employment. In Mexico, manufacturing wages fell 21 percent from 1995 to 1999, and have only started to recover. The percentage of Mexicans living in poverty has also grown since NAFTA went into effect. The environment suffers: In the maquiladora zones along the US-Mexico border, the increased pollution and the improper disposal of chemical wastes have dramatically raised rates of hepatitis and birth defects. NAFTA should be repealed, not expanded.

(b) the frame work will be “technology neutral” but RFID will be the method of choice to get the program going as soon as possible,
(c) the USAIP will be modified to protect producer confidentiality (against inappropriate use of the Freedom Of Information Act—FOIA), and (d) NAIS will initially be voluntary, with premises IDs assigned in Fall 2004 and individual animal IDs used at a later date. http://www.theisef.com/CMDocs/isef/05Traceability.pdf [Dead URL]

2007 Data mining: State of Massachusetts uses rabies and other information to sign up farmers for Premises ID without permission. — NOFA Mass Org

2007 What is Premises Identification?

A Premises has no protection under the Constitution of the United States while property always has the exclusive rights of the owner tied to it. Property rights are protected by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution. The word Premise is a synonym for the word tenement… Websters New World Dictionary 1960 College Edition defines Premises as the part of a deed or lease that states its reason the parties involved and the property in conveyance. Webster then defines conveyance as the transfer of ownership of real property from one person to another. It is quite obvious that the bureaucrats in Washington had a very good reason to use the term premises and never mention PROPERTY…. Page 22 The New User Guide-USDA

The Truth about Premises Identification, Before you sign up did they release this information to you? premises identification number, or PIN, is then assigned to that location associating it with the mailing address. Page 22 The New User Guide It is important to remember that the premises identification number (PIN) is assigned to a geophysical location. If an owner or entity sells his/her farm, the next operators of the premises use the original premises identification number that had been assigned to that location. If the seller buys a new location to build a new operation that never had livestock, he/she would register that location and obtain a new premises identification number. It will carry with the land forever….. That means this PIN must be disclosed when selling the property.

January 8 2008 ~In the UK Defra has dropped the word ‘farming’ from its title. “Defra and the Treasury’s joint vision document of 2006 presented to the EU argued that supports for farming should be completely abandoned.. farming is a drain on the country’s finances and we are in a “post agricultural era”…“ —Warmwell

FAO is supporting harmonization of seed rules and regulations in Africa and Central Asia in order to stimulate the development of a vibrant seed industry…An effective seed regulation harmonization process involves dialogue amongst all relevant stakeholders from both private and public sectors. Seed quality assurance, variety release, plant variety protection, biosafety, plant quarantine and phytosanitary issues are among the major technical areas of a regional harmonized seed system. The key to a successful seed regulation harmonization is a strong political will of the governments involved

Small Farmers And The Doha Round: Lessons From Mexico’s NAFTA Experience

Alongside this, as hoped for by designers of NAFTA, has been ‘modernisation’ – a sharp decline in the share of agriculture and allied sectors in the workforce. From nearly 27% in 1991 it declined to slightly less than 15% in 2006, losing more than 2 million jobs[18]. Again small and marginal farmers and agricultural labour bore the brunt, as evidenced by very sharp decline in the number of rural households. According to a study by Jose Romero and Alicia Puyana carried out for the federal government of Mexico, between 1992 and 2002, the number of agricultural households fell an astounding 75% – from 2.3 million to 575, 000[19]. There has been a significant increase in migration out of rural areas as livelihoods are lost and farms have been abandoned.

Exports vs. Food Security in Mexico

Ejidos are a system of community-owned lands which, in some cases, have been owned “in trust” by communities for centuries. Ejido lands were protected from sale as a result of the 1910 Mexican Revolution. However, a significant amount of ejido land passed into private hands during the 1980s and 1990s due to extreme credit pressures and changes to the Mexican Constitution. These constitutional changes allow, for the first time since the Revolution, the sale of ejido land to private owners. The changes were a crucial concession by Mexico to ensure the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1993.

2009 The Largest Wave of Suicides in History

Farmer suicides in India: Now the full toll—surely among the largest sustained waves of suicides in human history—is becoming apparent. And as Sainath emphasizes, these numbers still underestimate the disaster, since women farmers are excluded from the official statistics… It is important that the figure of 150,000 farm suicides is a bottom line estimate…. As Professor Nagaraj puts it: “There is likely to be a serious underestimation of suicides…what has driven the huge increase in farm suicides, particularly in the Big Four or ’Suicide SEZ’ States? “Overall,” says Professor Nagaraj, “there exists since the mid-90s, an acute agrarian crisis. That’s across the country. In the Big Four and some other states, specific factors compound the problem…. Cultivation costs have shot up in these high input zones, with some inputs seeing cost hikes of several hundred per cent… Meanwhile, prices have crashed, as in the case of cotton, due to massive U.S.-EU subsidies to their growers. All due to price rigging with the tightening grip of large corporations over the trade in agricultural commodities.”
Counter Punch

2013 – Biologist Pushpa Bhargava spoke of terminator seeds being sold to farmers in India.

While the debate rages as to whether certain seeds contain a ‘terminator gene’ or more likely some other trait that at least diminishes seed virility, the outcome of global policies that have benefited big agribusiness, as well as seed patenting and seed monopoly (and the swallowing the seed companies’ pesticides!) has been the widespread termination of farmers’ lives in India. With reports of collapsed cotton yields throughout the state of Maharashtra in India , ‘cutting edge’ biotechnology is proving to be terminal on many levels.

LET’S YOU AND HIM FIGHT, THE COMMIE CON-ARTIST SPECIAL

TheseTruths mentioned Professor David Clements a few days ago. Clements has not been posting on Rumble to The Professor’s Record very much but he has put up some very interesting clips from other people. In light of Wolf Moon’s post How Mayorkas and DHS plan to Purge Republicans, the last two videos by Byrne make sense. Problem – Reaction – and he offers the ‘Solution.’

A bit of Dot connecting.

There was a big carfuffle over General Flynn vs Lin Wood just after Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty back in November. This caused a major split in the MAGA Movement and even cause a blow-up here at the Qtree.

Con Artist #1 David Hancock, a grifter, disgraced navy seal who moved in on the Rittenhouse family, seems to be behind Kyle Rittenhouse’s attack on Lin Wood.

And that mess resulted in a riff between Lin Wood and General Flynn and our loss of grandmaintexas.

Thesetruths made a long comment in response to FG&C

….I also want evidence. Wood has provided evidence about Hancock. He has provided evidence that Byrne lied in his video….
Wood has provided financial records of his FightBack organization.Wood produced the audio of the Byrne phone call to prove that Byrne was lying about him, and probably also to reveal Byrne’s character, as someone who would say those things about Powell.
Thesetruths

At this point in time more information has come up and it looks like Thesetruths maybe correct about Byrne.

Joshua Merritt was on Lindell’s Red Team and trashed his Cyber Symposium to the media.

Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium created waves in both mainstream and conservative media after Josh Merritt, a member of Lindell’s “Red Team” of cyber experts, went to the media and said the data was illegitimate just prior to presenting at the event.
Merritt told the Washington Times that packet captures are unrecoverable in the data and that the data, as provided, cannot prove a cyber incursion by China. “So our team said, we’re not going to say that this is legitimate if we don’t have confidence in the information,” Merritt said on Wednesday….
RedVoiceMedia

Josh Merritt ALSO showed up in the Sydney Powell’s lawsuits. And HE ALSO BETRAYED SYDNEY!

Despite the fact that the Post had spoken with Merritt and confirmed his identity as “Spyder,” Powell refused to answer questions about his qualifications…..
Sidney Powell,….appears to have misled courts as to the qualifications of one of her key witnesses….Powell’s team described the witness in question as a “Military Intelligence expert” who would provide unambiguous proof that voting systems used in the election were compromised. The witness was known only as “Spyder”
But a Friday report from the Washington Post revealed that “Spyder,” whose real name is Joshua Merritt,…. actually an army vehicle mechanic who had never even worked in military intelligence.
Merritt even conceded to the Post that describing himself as an “electronic intelligence analyst under 305th Military Intelligence” was specious. He said legal clerks on Powell’s team wrote that information on his declaration without informing him of the specific language….
Law and Crime

CAN YOU SAY BULLSHIT ARTIST?? Someone inserted into MAGA as a poison pill? IIRC David Clement ALSO interviewed him, felt great affinity for him and DID NOT SPOT HIM as a Con Artist. He took the video down after the symposium when all this came out.
So that is Con-Artist #2.

MARCH 4^th – Gen. Michael Flynn’s Henchmen EXPOSED – 25 minutes

I do not think it is General FLYNN, I think it is PATRICK BYRNES who is doing a lot of manipulating! Here are three very telling videos.

Rough translation/synopsis.

In brackets throughout are captions by David Clement. I labeled my comments within brackets with -GC. I also inserted additional information from other sources to flesh out the story.

https://rumble.com/vwgngm-gen.-michael-flynns-henchmen-exposed.html

There was a bunch of back and forth between Mike Lindell and TruNews. Mike accused TruNews of bringing in ANTIFA. HOWEVER Mike and TruNews (Rick Wiles) TALKED and got the matter cleared up. The CON ARTIST in this case was JEREMY OLIVER. He claimed to be UNDER CONTRACT with TruNews. He wasn’t he had submitted an application and then was slipped in. He was the freelance videographer that Edward Szall took to Sioux Falls. Ed asked at the last minute if he could bring Oliver along. TruNews did not have a production team or media creds. Ed said he had a person who was very close to Mr Lindell who could get the creds pushed through and he is a videographer and will do it FOR FREE. He wants to impress you and wants a job with TruNews. He had NOTHING on paper, it was a MISTAKE on the part of TrueNews. [I think the person close to Mike Lindell who got Jeremy Oliver in under media creds was Patrick Byrne as is shown later. -GC]

Then the story got really weird. He was given the information by Colonel Waldren who was head of the Red Team. His security team, who fed the information to him about the guy (Oliver) being Antifa and that TruNews was funded by MediaMatters.

Rick Wiles does not think Oliver is ANTIFA, BUT he does not think he is a Free lance videographer either [INTELLIGENCE ASSET]

Doc found another video today. It was at another event where Mr Lindell spoke. (thinks April or May) Put on by a group supporting Lindell [The America Project = Joe Flynn, Michael Flynn & PATRICK BYRNE] It was at a hotel in Vegas.

@ 6 MINUTES a very important clip by a U-Tuber/journalist with his own talk show. He is Jason Goodman. His show is Crowd Source the Truth. Doc & Rick Wiles had a long conversation with the guy and thought he was a nice Jewish man who is trying to connect dots.

The video shows a few people:

Jason Goodman doing the interview.

Patrick Byrne as interviewee

Jeremy Oliver as Bodyguard – strong arm.

2^nd Body guard carrying a firearm.

Hotel Security in white shirt.

Patrick Byrne, is the person being interviewed. He was involved with a Russian SPY ON BEHALF OF THE FBI. Per Byrne he was involved in STING OPERATIONS against wall street businessmen involved in white collar crime. (2019) This wasn’t a one off, he had been an informant for a number of years. He said he was recruited by those ABOVE THE FBI.

@ 9:46 minutes Fox news interview of Byrne

Interviewer: You said you got tangled up in the Deep State Investigation INTO DONALD TRUMP

Byrne: … About 12 years ago I helped them Fight Wall Street. I was kinda a one man Occupy Wall Street. In 05,06 the Feds showed up and it was my honor to help them TAKE DOWN A COUPLE HUNDRED PEOPLE ON WALL STREET.

In 2015/2016 I was given some fishy orders. I carried them out…. Don’t say the FBI, the FBI is barely involved in this. It is all the way in top, The Men in Black as I called them showed up and asked for this THIRD favor. I’m not going to go into that... [ Wall Street #1, the Russian Spy #2, and DONALD TRUMP #3 – GC]

THE ORDERS CAME FROM PETER STZROK. [Remember Stzrok was on loan to the FBI from the CIA -GC] …. I can’t go into it…. I feel terrible, people getting killed, country coming apart so I WENT TO SEE WARREN BUFFET kinda my Rabbi [ photo of Obama giving Presidential Metal & he is on Council on Foreign Relations]

Buffet advised Byrne to go public… Here is what it is, this was all political espionage. CONDUCTED AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON, Rubio, Cruz and Trump. This is not theory, I was in the room when it happened. I was part of it. He said he had to wait to come forward until Bill Barr was installed. [Bill Barr of Kirkland & Ellis? The same that handled the $400 million capital raised to purchase Dominion Voting?]

@ 14:30 Second video showing an ATTEMPTED Byne interview by Goodman. [This is where it gets really wierd. -GC]

Goodman: I know you have been working with Mike for a while. I do not know if you were aware, I called Mr Lindell and he got very upset.

Byrne: Not aware.

Goodman: I had a good impression of Mike, obviously I support Donald Trump, I am not into stealing elections or a communist becoming the president.

[Mary Fanning-Kirchhoefer is married to Kirkland & Ellis IP attorney Greg Kirchoefer. The law firm that handled the $400 million capital raised to purchase Dominion Voting Systems.]

I called him to share information about Mary Fanning who I know is very involved in the project and Dennis Montgomery and he became very irate and hung up the phone and wouldn’t listen to me.

Byrne: I have no comment… walks away.

Goodman: Hey Patrick … no need to push me… Why won’t you speak to me about Mary Fanning. He just instructed his security to keep me away from him…

Byrne calls some guy.

Byrne shows up again and tells Goodman the reason he is getting tossed is because his question is ridiculous…. Foul language… Two guys come up and give him the bum’s rush and herd him towards the elevators.

While the VIDEOGRAPHER JEREMY OLIVER (who TOLD Mike Lindell he was with TrueNews @ the symposium) cages Goodman at the elevators the other guy goes and gets Hotel Security to toss Goodman out of the hotel.

ALL THAT OVER THE TOP REACTION FOR MENTIONING MARY FANNING AND DENNIS MONTGOMERY?

Back to Ed Szall who recommended the guy.

[INSERT by Professor: Remember this hit piece against me?

Influencer on line made claims of an ANTHRAX Attack at the Reawaken America Tour in Dallas. We looked into it and found it was from Ed Szall on the Stew Peters Show and reported by RedVoiceMedia (Dec 2021)

“Look… I like Stew Peterson But this is Shit reporting

This morning I literally walked the reporter through the timeline referring him to specific posts made by Joe Oltmann AND the livestream where joe talked about what happened, BEFORE I commented publicly and asked for prayer.

Edward Szall, a colleague of Jeremy Oliver, Created a story attacking me, aired by Stew Peters, instead of asking Joe Oltmann and Jovan Pulitzer about an alleged bio-attack they experienced at Mike Flynn’s ReAwaken America Event in Dallas. See:

https://www.redvoicemedia.com/2021/12/anthrax-bio-attack-rumors-reawaken-america-tour-targeted-with-fear-smear/) ]

@ 19:00 TrueNews does a replay of the Goodman video without sound so they can make comments. They watch Jeremy Oliver and say he acts like Byrne’s bodyguard. He has no ID no name tag but puts himself in a position to watch over Byrne. Oliver’s companion bodyguard, according to Goodman was armed. He said he saw the fire arm.

The mention Mary Fanning produced the Lindell video earlier in the year and Dennis Montgomery is the alleged source of the massive voter data dump. They ask WHY did Byne go bonkers at the mention of those names.

TrueNews later found out that Edward Szall had known Jeremy Oliver for five years. [THINK, That is since beginning of TRUMP ELECTION AND PRESIDENCY -GC]

And then I found out that Lauren Witzke?[SWAG on my part as to who this is -GC] has known him for years. Seems he gets around to a lot of events and knows a lot of people.

Well according to Edward Szoll, Oliver told him he was very close to Mike Lindell but Mike said he had never heard of him. [That is why I think it was Byrne’s who got the media creds for Jeremy Oliver -GC]

Rick Wiles: SO SOMEBODY IS LYING.

But Oliver shows up at multiple meetings where Mr Lindell is at. And he gets very very close to very prominent speakers like Patrick Byrne. That was UNUSUAL BEHAVIOR. The behavior of a body guard, a security agent, someone empowered by a wealthy man to keep people away from him.

We wanted to put up this video because that’s the man who put out a document that he was under contract with TruNews. Even if you hate me, would you help me just this one time and help me investigate him.

Who is this guy?

Who does he work for?

Two other very short clips of Patrick Byrne

Michael Flynn and Patrick Byrne claim Trump QUIT! March 2. 2022 – 14 sec clip

https://rumble.com/vwaibi-michael-flynn-and-patrick-byrne-claim-trump-quit.html

[INSERT by David Clements
General Mike Flynn
Sat Sept 25 9:38 PM
Lin. I am very disappointed in his old messages and those vital health issues he failed to mention. Same old stuff. We need encouraging words of how to win not what he did. People are hungry for solutions SADLY TRUMP QUIT. And although he says we won’t be a socialist country, we look more and more like one each and every day. And he does nothing about it.
The Arizona Audit was paid for by two organizations (mine and Byrne’s to the tune of $5M0 and the cyber company is still in $2.5M debt and T’s team hasn…]

Byrne: Ahhhh… and so on and so forth, I promise Trump was not Stranglove, trying to grab onto power. I’m not sure he wanted to stay. I think he was a seventy-five year old tired guy, who put on fifty pounds. I think he hated what was going on.

March 3^rd – Michael Flynn and Patrick Byrne are Anti-Trump Globalists (6:30 min)

https://rumble.com/vwah8m-michael-flynn-and-patrick-byrne-are-anti-trump-globalists.html

… how about a coalition government that does not include Donald Trump, but it includes Micheal Flynn. I want to make it clear I have not run this by Flynn….. I think he would do this because he would do something to save the country.

But we all know behind dear President Biden and our nice pristine VP Kamela Harris we all know there are a couple other shot callers in there and that is all really the government, let’s say four people.

[@40secs Clements puts up a photo of Flynn and Susan Rice shaking hands and smiling at each other like lost lovers.]

I would suggest, as a solution that could, I mean if the Left wants to just pound their way through this. I don’t… I mean their own federal agencies are melting on them. I am hearing 65% of people in the federal agencies ARE ON MY SIDE [notice it is NOT POTUS TRUMP’s side. – GC] I hear all kinds of stuff is going on and people are revolting and the military, and do they really think they are going to play that out?

Let me propose, this other alternative, HAVE A COALITION GOVERNMENT. Mike Flynn, is like Steve Jobs

[…was the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple; the chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar; a member of The Walt Disney Company’s board of directors following its acquisition of Pixar; and the founder, chairman, and CEO of NeXT. – WIKI also see https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0423418/bio – GC]

Flynn is a STRONG PLAYER. He is the only guy on the Republican side who can be trusted by the People [What about Donald Trump, Patrick? – Clements] [What about DeSantis??? What about Peter Navarro??? -GC] Because the people saw the entire republican party throw Donald Trump under the bus and do nothing for him [Can’t the American people still trust Trump?] Essentially all the republican politicians and all of the RNC fat cats, no one, the people need to have someone they accept and trust. Those 57 to 69% of Americans who see thru this charade. There is no doubt. And Mike Flynn is talking to Donald Trump every day…. [Mike Flynn would be the most senior level person of the coalition government with Trump assisting him?]

Could the Republicans live with that, that Donald Trump did not get to walk back into the White House?

I don’t know, I think Donald Trump could live with it. I can not speak for him. And this guy [POTUS? That is a rather disrespectful way to address a former president. -GC] could press what ever lawsuits he wants to press, I am not opining on, the validity of such lawsuits. [This from a guy who FUNDED the Arizona Audit??? Kinda tepid isn’t he? -GC] So I mean he has every right to press all the lawsuits he wants. I am throwing this out there as something he might see the logic of. [ERRRRrrr didn’t Trump’s plane just have problems on 3/9/2022??? – GC]

And the Left, the people in power, the Biden admin, may see some logic in this. And with it, in this coalition government, COALITION SUPER THINK TANK of Biden, Harris, with a couple intellectual figures behind them. Put Mike Flynn in there and two economists. [Biden, Harris, Obama, and Susan Rice. Put Mike Flynn in there.]

One is a Democrat named Simon Johnson. We’re friendly but I haven’t talked to him in a couple years.

[The only one worse would be Klaus Schwab!]

Simon Johnson is the co-author (with Jonathan Gruber) of Jump-Starting America: How Breakthrough Science Can Revive Economic Growth and the American Dream. You remember Gruber don’t you? Jonathan Gruber is “ObamaCare’s architect” and a MIT professor. He is also the guy who made this statement about the Affordable Care Act. Gruber told an audience at the University of Pennsylvania in November 2014 that Democrats required “the stupidity of the American voter” for Obamacare to become law. -GC]

SIMON JOHNSON is the Ronald A. Kurtz (1954) Professor of Entrepreneurship the MIT Sloan School of Management, where he is head of the Global Economics and Management group. In 2007-08 he was chief economistat the International Monetary Fund, and he currently co-chairs the CFA Institute® Systemic Risk Council…

[IMF = International Monetary Fund globalist Organization –Clements, Remember IMF/World Bank SAPs destroy countries -GC]

He is English by birth, Oxford…. But was quite critical of some of the things that happen under Obama. HIS JOB WAS TO GO AROUND TO DIFFERENT COUNTRIES AND BAIL THEM OUT. [So he was the IMF SAP hitman -GC] So he would sit across the table from a bold new leader and say if we write you this check are you going to bailout your elites or are you going to fix things? He was very critical of Obama that Obama wasn’t doing anything to fix Wall Street. So he is an honest democrat that I would vouch for. [AN HONEST GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT THAT PATRICK WOULD VOUCH FOR.]

He is very capable and he knows more about countries going through financial crises than anyone in the world…. Tirade against wall Street types…. There are not enough of the INTELLECTUAL ECONOMISTS [in the US government They are-GC] At the World Bank and IMF who have much more to offer in my view. [World Bank?] They have a THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE THAT I BELIEVE IS LACKING in the personnel at the senior levels in general and in the treasury Department and SEC. They are very orthodox thinkers.

The other economist I would name to this dream team, this working group is a Spanish economist of the Austrian School is Jesús Huerta de Soto [A spanish economist (a non-us citizen) would be part of a coalition government running America?] He has worked on dual sovereign currencies.

Between Johnson who knows all about countries going through TRANSITIONS, DOING THE HARD THINGS.

[OK EXACTLY what does this Johnson Dude mean by HARD THINGS? A 2013 Forbes article reported the probable reason he did not agree with Obama.]

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) quietly dropped a bomb in its October Fiscal Monitor Report. Titled “Taxing Times,” the report paints a dire picture for advanced economies with high debts that fail to aggressively “mobilize domestic revenue.” It goes on to build a case for drastic measures and recommends a series of escalating income and consumption tax increases culminating in the direct confiscation of assets.
Yes, you read that right. But don’t take it from me. The report itself says:
“….”The sharp deterioration of the public finances in many countries has revived interest in a “capital levy”— a one-off tax on private wealth—as an exceptional measure to restore debt sustainability.….”
Note three takeaways. First, IMF economists know there are not enough rich people to fund today’s governments even if 100 percent of the assets of the 1 percent were expropriated. That means that all households with positive net wealth—everyone with retirement savings or home equity—would have their assets plundered under the IMF’s formulation.
Second, such a repudiation of private property will not pay off Western governments’ debts or fund budgets going forward. It will merely “restore debt sustainability,” allowing free-spending sovereigns to keep tapping the bond markets until the next crisis comes along—for which stronger measures will be required, of course.
Third, should politicians fail to muster the courage to engage in this kind of wholesale robbery, the only alternative scenario the IMF posits is public debt repudiation and hyperinflation. Structural reform proposals for the Ponzi-scheme entitlement programs that are bankrupting us are nowhere to be seen….
FORBES

[That was almost a decade ago before our National debt really sky rocketed. ‘You will OWN NOTHING….’ All of a sudden makes a lot more sense. — GC]

Between Johnson and Desoto who knows about a dual sovereign currency and Mike Flynn and Biden, Harris and the two shot callers in a room, I don’t want any part of it. I think that offer might be attractive to the current administration. [Sounds Like a Transition to the New World Order. -Clements]

March 2^nd Patrick Byrne: Michael Flynn and Susan Rice Instead of Trump? (2 minutes)

https://rumble.com/vwaiqs-patrick-byrne-michael-flynn-and-susan-rice-instead-of-trump.html

…Get together and CRUSH the other side [No doubt referring to Steve Bannon’s hopes of completely destroying the Democrat party in the mid terms -GC]

Maybe it is time we take a breath and .. there are ways out of … there are totally peaceful ways out of this.

If this was a business situation I could tell you exactly what I would do. If this was a business situation and something went on in a corporation or something, I would say the Human Terrain Mapping here is there are two shot callers. There are two shot callers.

One shot caller is Barrack Obama and the other shot caller is Donald Trump. And it does not matter their names have nothing next to it but former. None of that matters. I would say each of them would appoint one person and those ahhhh I do not know… One obvious person would be General Mike Flynn.

And I am going to criticize Donald Trump. He is surrounded by mendacious mediocrities. [On that I would very much disagree!- GC] A bunch of them are swamp rats, he has gotten rid of about ½ of them. He still has a bunch of swamp rats around him…. And there is one guy in his circle, it is like dealing with Steve Jobs, His name is Mike Flynn. Mike Flynn is sharp, I have dealt with a lot of people he is top crown.

ON THE OTHER SIDE IT IS SUSAN RICE. She would not remember, we actually met when we were students. And I remarked on her then. If those two people met, I bet things could be worked out. If it was a business situation that is what I would say. The guy who have a shot are those two. There are peaceful way through this. And Given we may be on the edge of WWIII,… IT WOULD BE NICE IF WE COULD DO SOMETHING REALLY QUICK AND THERE ARE PEACEFUL WAYS THROUGH THIS.

Hey Byrnes, I know another way. RESTORE HONEST ELECTIONS and TRY AND CONVICT THE REAL TRAITORS. Real Simple!

THE HISTORY of MR. GLOBAL’S ATTACK on our FOOD SUPPLY

First of a four part series on the ongoing attack on the American Food Supply including a time line.

“In an effort to escape the continuous, racking abdominal cramping, Alex curled up into a fetal position and begged me to hold him. I stroked his face, attempting to calm him, to soothe him. I watched in horror his life hemorrhaging away in the hospital bathroom; bowl after bowl of blood and mucus gushed from his little body. Later, I helped change blood-soaked diapers that he had to wear after he could no longer stand or walk. Alex’s screams were followed by silence as the evil toxins attacked his brain causing him to lose neurological control. His eyes crossed and he suffered tremors and delusions. He no longer knew who I was.”
Nancy Donley, mother of Alex and President of Safe Tables Our Priority

The agonizing death of this little boy and many others WAS DELIBERATE. It was ‘JUST POLITICS.’ An orchestrated death, along with others, used to play up the need for legislation that moved control of the US food supply FROM AMERICAN’S INDEPENDENT FARMERS TO THE AG CARTEL OF THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION.

Shielding the Giant USDA’s “Don’t Look, Don’t Know” Policy tells the tale of how the USDA ALLOWED ConAgra to Poison Americans with Tainted Meat to create a crisis to get their blasted Food Safety Modernization Act through Congress. For over a decade Congresswoman Rosa Delauro (D – CT) tried to get the food safety bill through congress with no luck. So they set-up a MAJOR food poisoning event the E. coli Outbreak at the 2004 North Carolina State Fair and the MSM blasted it all over the news. I give the insider details HERE . (Slight editing to make it more readable.)

…..I know Jason Wilke of Crossroads Farm Petting Zoo, the designated fall guy for the State Fair E. coli Outbreak in North Carolina (2004). It is curious that two weeks before there was NO outbreak at the Lee County fair where he was for a week and there was no outbreak the week after at another large venue. (I personally verified with the fair committee chairs.) However during the week he stayed home prepping for the state fair, an animal rights activist who was a USDA vet, stuck a thermometer up the butt of each of his animals thanks to that one line change in the Animal Welfare Act. She also told him she wanted to close him down. These actions and words were relayed to me via phone by Jason BEFORE the fair. (He wanted to vent and moan) … CDC did over 400 tests on Jason’s animals and the only vector route was through fresh feces. Skin/fur or mouth contact did not have viable organisms. Also it was the first case where this nasty strain of e coli showed up in sheep and goats. It was confined to concentrated feed lot operations prior to that. Operations that would be inspected by a USDA vet. The four year campaign by Animal Rights Activists in North Carolina to cause a bad accident/incident at pony rides or petting farms ended abruptly the week of the fair and has not resurfaced…. HMMMmmm.
Gail Combs

I did not mention in that comment that PETA targeted me, trying to arrange animal related injuries to children 4 times in the 6 months prior to the fair. The last attempt was less than a week before the fair. I have had no incidences since then. Also Feces SINK through the shavings so a child would literally have to go digging through the shavings for the fresh feces to eat. On the other hand State Fairs use casual labor (How many were PETA?) The food vendors would likely buy hamburger from the refrigerated trailers parked on the state grounds. The vendors equipment and area would be steam cleaned long before the inspectors would go looking for someone to pin the blame on. Therefore there would be zero chance of connecting the food vendors to the outbreak.

…What bothers me the most is that there is enough “leakage” to see the clear coordination. Like the “4 walling” of food related illnesses right up until the farm regulation bill was past. Now? Nothing. Well I’m sorry, but we did not overnight go to zero food poisoning or bacterial contamination. It just reeks of either deliberate contamination to create a panic or a deliberate propaganda effort coordinated from (somewhere) central.
It bothers me to think that the governments of the world are largely in the Railroading Business, but it is looking ever more that way. Clear lines of control, influence, action “for effect”, coordinated efforts agenda driven. I’d like to think we had a free association of people and a marketplace of ideas, evolving to the best ends. The evidence argues otherwise. The UN is clearly (and states so) acting as a central coordinating and influencing body. The intent to reduce the Nation State autonomy is also quite clear. (That the Big Players have publicly stated that intent makes it easier to see…
E.M. Smith (ChiefIO)

EM was certainly correct. Prior to that final incident in 2004 John Munsell tried to alert politicians and others. In a e-mail to me he even said he had a reporter stay with him for three days, write an article for a well know NY magazine, have it approved by the editor only to have the CEO kill the article at the last minute.

Meatpacking Maverick: John Munsell’s against-the-odds struggle for improved food safety — Mother Jones Magazine, December 2003 Issue

“Before the tainted beef arrived — USDA-approved and vacuum-sealed – Munsell had no reason to doubt the integrity of the food-safety system. But that changed after the meat he ground for hamburger tested positive for E. coli 0157:H7. Instead of tracking the contaminated meat back to its source, the USDA launched an investigation of Munsell’s own operation. Never mind that the local federal inspector had seen the beef go straight from the package into a clean grinder — a USDA spokesman called that testimony “hearsay.” By February 2002, three more tests of meat Munsell was grinding straight from the package came back positive. This time, as he would later testify in a government hearing, he had paperwork documenting that the beef came from a single source: ConAgra:

Munsell fired off an angry email to the district USDA manager, warning of a potential public-health emergency, and adding that if no one tracked down the rest of the bad meat, “both of us should share a cell in Alcatraz.” The agency moved immediately and aggressively — not to recall meat from Greeley, but to shut down Munsell’s grinding operation, a punishment that lasted four months. Despite Munsell’s continued whistleblowing — to Senator Conrad Burns (R-Mont.), national cattle associations, and his fellow meat processors — the USDA failed to address the alleged contamination at ConAgra’s Greely Plant. Then, in July 2002, Munsell’s worst fears came true. E. coli-tainted burger from Greeley killed an Ohio woman and sickened at least 35 others. ConAgra then recalled 19 million pounds of beef, one of the largest recalls in history.”
Michael Scherer, Mother Jones Magazine

John Munsell even contacted a lawyer, Bill Marler, a products liability attorney. One E. coli O157:H7 Outbreak I Think I could have prevented

But again nothing was done. The switch from the ‘safest food in the world’ to feces laced hamburger can be traced to the switch from hands on USDA food inspection to HACCP, a new system where inspectors no longer inspect FOOD, they inspect PAPERWORK. John Munsell does a great job of explaining the change in:

HACCP’S Disconnect From Public Health Concerns (PLEASE READ)

An amusing short article on the harassment John had to put up with from the USDA: Five Minutes With John Munsell & A Trip To The Woodshed With The USDA

Unfortunately there are just too of many “incidents” that have been handled in such a way that transnational corporations are not “inconvenienced”. Stanley Painter, Chairman of the National Food Inspection Unions, stated in his testimony at the congressional hearing on the Hallmark Dower Cows:

“..when we see violations of FSIS regulations,.. we are instructed not to write non-compliance reports… Sometimes even if we write non-compliance reports, some of the larger companies use their political muscle to get those overturned….Some of my members have been intimidated by agency management in the past when they came forward and tried to enforce agency regulations and policies. I will give you a personal example: [SRM removal regulations concern brain and spine removal to prevent BSE] …
In December 2004, I began to receive reports that the new SRM regulations were not being uniformly enforced. I wrote a letter to the Assistant FSIS Administrator for Field Operations at the time conveying to him what I had heard…I was paid a visit at my home in Alabama by an FSIS official dispatched from the Atlanta regional office to convince me to drop the issue. I told him that I would not.
Then, the agency summoned me to come here to Washington, DC where agency officials subjected me to several hours of interrogation including wanting me to identify which of my members were blowing the whistle on the SRM removal violations. I refused to do so….I was then placed on disciplinary investigation status. The agency even contacted the USDA Office of Inspector General to explore criminal charges being filed against me…
Both my union AFGE and the consumer group Public Citizen filed separate Freedom of Information Act requests in December 2004 for any non-compliance records in the FSIS data base…. It was not until August 2005 that over 1000 non-compliance reports – weighing some 16 pounds — were turned over to both AFGE and Public Citizen that proved that what my members were telling me was correct – that some beef slaughter facilities were not complying with the SRM removal regulations… on the same day those records were released, I received written notification from the agency that they were dropping their disciplinary investigation – eight months after their “investigation” began.
Stanley Painter

When the act failed to pass under the sponsorship of Democrat Rosa Delauno, the Act was then CO-SPONSORED by Senator Burr (R – NC) I go through some of the ramifications of that law HERE. The KEY is the Ag Cartel controlled World trade Organization would determine the rules US farmers would have to live by.

SEC. 404. COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS.
Nothing in this Act (or an amendment made by this Act) shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the agreement establishing the World Trade Organization or any other treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.

Sir Julian Rose talks of the ramifications fo the OIE & FAO recommendations worldwide in The Battle to Save the Polish Countryside

….Spend hours out of your working day filling in endless forms, filing maps and measuring every last inch of your fields, tracks and farmsteads; applying for ‘passports’ for your cattle and ear tags for your sheep and pigs; re-siting the slurry pit and putting stainless steel and washable tiles on the dairy walls; becoming versed in HASAP hygiene and sanitary rules and applying them where any food processing was to take place; and living under the threat of convictions and fines should one put a finger out of place or be late in supplying some official details…
Sir Julian Rose

Do not forget that Bush signed a treaty to HARMONIZE US laws with that of the EU.

“In a sweeping move that has garnered surprisingly little attention this week the United States and the European Union have signed up to a new transatlantic economic partnership that will see regulatory standards “harmonized” and will lay the basis for a merging of the US and EU into one single market, a huge step on the path to a new globalized world order.” The BBC reported from the Summit in Washington on Monday….

And the FDA in 2003 even had up on their website: International Harmonization

The harmonization of laws, regulations and standards between and among trading partners requires intense, complex, time-consuming negotiations by CFSAN officials. Harmonization must simultaneously facilitate international trade and promote mutual understanding, while protecting national interests and establish a basis to resolve food issues on sound scientific evidence in an objective atmosphere. Failure to reach a consistent, harmonized set of laws, regulations and standards within the freetrade agreements and the World Trade Organization Agreements can result in considerable economic repercussions.
FDA

The international Ag Cartel was the driving force behind the Agreement on Agriculture, HACCP and the doubling of Food Borne illnesses. I did the graphs for a presentation before congress showing the five years before HACCP and the five years after. The USDA responded just as the DOD is now. ‘OH the first five years didn’t capture ALL the food borne illness. We switched to a different system where the reports (MANDATORY BY LAW) can be emailed instead of Faxed or sent by mail.’

This doubling of food borne illness, well hyped by the media, was used to justify the new law, the Food Safety Modernization Act, REGULATING farming (not the corporate processing plants.) These new regulations are meant to be used to kill off US independent farmers.

Again the USDA and the FDA LIED. They stated there had been no up date to our food safety system AFTER they had already implemented HACCP allowing the Ag cartel to inspect themselves.

In September, 1995, USDA’s Food Safety & Inspection Service presented a 600-page document Farm-To-Table – control of every step in the food chain from production to home preparation.

Reshaping USDA’s Meat & Poultry Inspection Program . . . An AAMP Perspective & Analysis Of The Agency’s Top-To-Bottom Review And How It Affects You And Your Business by Steve Krut, American Association of Meat Processors

For plants with more than one process (meaning more than one HACCP program), verification activities would be scheduled to ensure that all HACCP plans are covered at least once a month. Compliance over time would mean less frequent verification.
Some key steps:
Verification – Inspector checks to see that the plant is doing what is in its process control or HACCP plan. This may last several hours or perhaps one day.
Validation – FSIS evaluates the plant’s HACCP plan to be certain it is appropriate and works for the product and process covered. A target frequency for validation audit would be at least once every two years for every HACCP plan. This is likely to involve an FSIS out-of-plant technical person or team and take several days to a week, but will occur on site…

The Grain Trader Dan Amstutz, Who wrote the Draft of the WTO Agreement on Agriculture was VP of Cargill (grain) and then moved to Goldman Sachs (How Goldman Sachs Created the Food Crisis- with it’s entry into the commodities market) He originally worked in the department of Ag under Reagan but his draft Agreement on Ag and Draft farm bill was passed under Clinton.

Background from 1945: History, HACCP and the Food Safety Con Job

The author Nicole Johnson takes us through how a Milner Round Table, the Committee for Economic Development (CED), intentionally changed the US agriculture system from a decentralized system to the vertically integrated system favored by the Ag cartel.

The human cost of CED’s plans were exacting and enormous.

CED’s plans resulted in widespread social upheaval throughout rural America, ripping apart the fabric of its society destroying its local economies. They also resulted in a massive migration to larger cities. The loss of a farm also means the loss of identity, and many farmers’ lives ended in suicide.
CED members were influential in business, government, and agricultural colleges, and their outlook shaped both governmental policies and what farmers were taught. Farmers found themselves encouraged to give up on a farming system that employed minimal outsourced inputs and capital and get “efficient” by adopting instead a system that required they go into debt in order to purchase ever more costly inputs, like fossil-fuel based fertilizers, chemicals, seeds, feed grain, and machinery. The local, decentralized food distribution networks that were previously in place became subject to corporate buyouts, vertical integration and consolidation, leaving farmers with fewer and fewer outlets to sell their goods.
With this consolidation of grain handlers, railways, food processing, meat packing, brewing and beverage makers, cereal makers, food retailers and restaurants, more and more of the food dollar went to processors and retailers, which gained increased market power. Farmers, meanwhile, were and continue to be squeezed on both ends: by input suppliers putting upward pressure on selling prices and by output buyers exerting downward pressure on their buying prices.
This analysis is confirmed by the Keystone Center, an establishment think tank with representatives on its board from Monsanto, DuPont, Shell, Coca-Cola, Dow, General Electric and the Rockefeller Foundation, to name a few. The organization’s 2001 report “The Keystone National Policy Dialogue on Trends in Agriculture” observes that “Agricultural policy in many respects supported the concentration of farming into larger and fewer units. Some would say agricultural policy is biased toward bigness.”

Home Gardens ARE covered in case you are wondering..

“..FOOD PRODUCTION FACILITY- The term ‘food production facility’ means any farm, ranch, orchard, vineyard, aquaculture facility, or confined animal-feeding operation…”

There is NO exemption for instate commerce, for hobby farms, for you backyard garden.

“ The Administrator, in order to protect the public health, shall establish a national traceability system that enables the Administrator to retrieve the history, use, and location of an article of food through all stages of its production, processing, and distribution.
set good practice standards to protect the public and animal health and promote food safety;

conduct monitoring and surveillance of animals, plants, products, or the environment, as appropriate

require each food production facility to have a written food safety plan that describes the likely hazards and preventive controls implemented to address those hazards;

include, with respect to growing, harvesting, sorting, and storage operations, minimum standards related to fertilizer use, nutrients, hygiene, packaging, temperature controls, animal encroachment, and water”

Notice it does not say a person SELLING food, it says a person holds, stores, or transports food or food ingredients. This is very scary given Ag Sec. Venman’s ” September, 1995, USDA’s Food Safety & Inspection Service presented a 600-page document Farm-To-Table – control of every step in the food chain from production to home preparation. “

Also included is this.
“in any action to enforce the requirements of the food safety law, the connection with interstate commerce required for jurisdiction SHALL BE PRESUMED TO EXIST.”
The fact you are growing veggies for you and friends does not exclude you!

SEE: Overlawyered — H.R. 875, Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 by WALTER OLSON and Trojan Horse Law: The Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 by Hans Bader

….Lori Robertson of FactCheck.org, who is not a lawyer (she has a B.A. in advertising), claims the bill doesn’t apply to “that tomato plant in your backyard.” As a lawyer, I am skeptical of this claim (I co-represented the prevailing defendant in the last successful constitutional challenge to federal regulation under the interstate commerce clause…
….Ignorance about the law’s broad reach (and how it will be construed by the courts) has thwarted opposition to the bill, which will likely pass Congress. For example, a newspaper claims the bill “doesn’t regulate home gardens.” The newspaper probably assumed that was true because the bill, like most federal laws, only purports to reach activities that affect “interstate commerce.” To an uninformed layperson or journalist, that “sounds as if it might not reach local and mom-and-pop operators at all.” (The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Rosa DeLauro, has sought to forestall opposition to her bill by falsely claiming that that “the Constitution’s commerce clause prevents the federal government from regulating commerce that doesn’t cross state lines.”)
But lawyers familiar with our capricious legal system know better. The Supreme Court ruled in Wickard v. Filburn (1942) that even home gardens (in that case, a farmer’s growing wheat for his own consumption) are subject to federal laws that regulate interstate commerce. Economists and scholars have criticized this decision, but it continues to be cited and followed in Supreme Court rulings, such as those applying federal anti-drug laws to consumption of even home-grown medical marijuana. Indeed, many court decisions allow Congress to define as “interstate commerce” even non-commercial conduct that doesn’t cross state lines — something directly at odds with Rep. DeLauro’s claims.

A PRIMER ON MONEY

Trudeau is threatening to confiscate bank accounts. Steve Cortez and others has been warning of coming Stagflation. Steve has been a part of Wall Street as a trader and strategist for almost two decades. Others such as Clif High warn of a coming dollar collapse.

Ed Dowd, a former Blackrock Portfolio Manager, reports on Falling Pharma Stocks And Coming Financial Collapse. Edward has said elsewhere how COVID-19 may have been used to cover global debt, and how he predicts a financial collapse is ahead of us.

https://rumble.com/vvc53k-ed-dowd-reports-on-falling-pharma-stocks.html

And now even Tucker Carlson is warning of the problems if the US dollar loses it’s World Reserve Currency status.

On the other hand Edward Harrison, a senior editor at Bloomberg, wrote in 2011 an article On Hyperinflation explaining why the US dollar is still solid because it is the World Reserve Currency. The fly in the ointment is explained in this March, 2013 article, BRICS plan new 50bn bank to rival World Bank and IMF, and The China-Australia Currency Swap Agreement.

… the bilateral currency swap agreement on 22 March 2012. The agreement allows exchange of local currencies between the two central banks…’” thus cutting out the US Dollar as the exchange currency.
The China-Australia Currency Swap Agreement.

Given these circumstances, I thought a discussion about Central Banks and the US dollar was appropriate. I hoped the Q tree could benefit from having this information all in one place.

“Inflation is the surest way to fertilize the rich man’s field with the sweat of the poor man’s brow.”
Charles Holt Carroll (1799-1890.)

Daniel Webster expanded on that idea.

“Of all the contrivances for cheating the laboring classes of mankind, none have been more effectual than that which deludes them with paper money. This is the most effectual of inventions to fertilize the rich man’s field by the sweat of the poor man’s brow. Ordinary tyranny, oppression, excessive taxation — these bear lightly on the happiness of the mass of the community compared with fraudulent currencies and the robberies committed by depreciated paper. Our own history has recorded for our instruction enough, and more than enough, of the demoralizing tendency, the injustice, and the intolerable oppression, on the virtuous and well disposed, of a degraded paper currency, authorized by law, or in any way countenanced by government.”
Daniel Webster (1782 -1852) Statement to the Senate in 1832

With encouragement from Senators Clay and Daniel Webster, Mr Nicholas Biddle, then President of the Second Bank of the United States, applied for a renewal of the Bank’s charter in 1832. President Jackson vetoed the renewal, stating “. . . It appears that more than a fourth part of the stock is held by foreigners and the residue is held by a few hundred of our citizens, chiefly of the richest class. . .” LINK

So it should not surprising that Senator Aldrich (R) read that Webster quote at a New York City dinner speech on October 15, 1913 on the eve of the passage of the Federal Reserve Act. He was NOT advocating AGAINST a Fractional Reserve Currency but rather FOR IT! — SEE: aIV Proceedings of the Academy of Political Science #1, at 38 (Columbia University, New York (1914))

For those who might not know the history of Fractional Reserve Banking see: The Magic of Fractional Banking. In essence it is counterfeiting.

INFLATION or Currency Devaluation:

One of the biggest victories achieved by modern economists and modern central bankers is changing the definition of inflation. Inflation used to mean an increase in the money supply – full stop.
PETER C. SCHMIDT (A very good article)

https://soundmonetarypolicy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/032310Whiskey.jpg

A few more definitions:

Money is metal coins, currency (Bank IOUs) and credit (fairy dust created out of thin air) or even beads and obsidian arrowheads. Money needs to be durable, accepted and dividable which is why precious metals were often the choice.

Money is a generally accepted, recognized, and centralized medium of exchange in an economy that is used to facilitate transactional trade for goods and services.
Investopedia Definition of Money

Wealth is LAND, RESOURCES and the labor that fashions usable and saleable goods.

Wealth is an accumulation of valuable economic resources that can be measured in terms of either real goods or money value.
Investopedia definition of Wealth

Capitalism is a private individual’s wealth, labor and resources reinvested to produce more wealth.

Capitalism is an economic system in which capital goods are owned by private individuals or businesses. The production of goods and services is based on supply and demand in the general market.

Money Is Created by Banks – Evidence Given by Graham Towers, Governor of the Central Bank of Canada

Some of the most frank evidence on banking practices was given by Graham F. Towers, Governor of the Central Bank of Canada (from 1934 to 1955), before the Canadian Government’s Committee on Banking and Commerce, in 1939… Most of the evidence quoted was the result of interrogation by Mr. “Gerry” McGeer, K.C., a former mayor of Vancouver, who clearly understood the essentials of central banking. Here are a few excerpts:

Q. But there is no question about it that banks create the medium of exchange?
Mr. Towers: That is right. That is what they are for… That is the Banking business, just in the same way that a steel plant makes steel. (p. 287)
The manufacturing process consists of making a pen-and-ink or typewriter entry on a card in a book. That is all. (pp. 76 and 238)
Each and every time a bank makes a loan (or purchases securities), new bank credit is created — new deposits — brand new money. (pp. 113 and 238)
Broadly speaking, all new money comes out of a Bank in the form of loans.
As loans are debts, then under the present system all money is debt. (p. 459)

Q. When $1,000,000 worth of bonds is presented (by the government) to the bank, a million dollars of new money or the equivalent is created?
Mr. Towers: Yes.

Q. Is it a fact that a million dollars of new money is created?
Mr. Towers: That is right.

Q. Now, the same thing holds true when the municipality or the province goes to the bank?
Mr. Towers: Or an individual borrower.

Q. Or when a private person goes to a bank?
Mr. Towers: Yes.

Q. When I borrow $100 from the bank as a private citizen, the bank makes a bookkeeping entry, and there is a $100 increase in the deposits of that bank, in the total deposits of that bank?
Mr. Towers: Yes. (p. 238)

Q. Mr. Towers, when you allow the merchant banking system to issue bank deposits which, with the practice of using the cheques as we have it in vogue today, constitutes the medium of exchange upon which I think 95 per cent of our public and private business is transacted, you virtually allow the banks to issue an effective substitute for money, do you not?
Mr. Towers: The bank deposits are actual money in that sense, yes.

Q. In that sense they are actual money, but, as a matter of fact, they are not actual money but credit, bookkeeping accounts, which are used as a substitute for money?
Mr. Towers: Yes.

Q. Then we authorize the banks to issue a substitute for money?
Mr. Towers: Yes, I think that is a very fair statement of banking. (p. 285)

US banks operate without Reserve

“Banks typically have 3% of their assets in cash in order to meet customer needs. Since 1960, banks have been allowed to use this “vault cash” to satisfy their reserve requirements. Today, bank reserve requirements have fallen to the point where they are now exceeded by vault cash, which means lowering reserve requirements to zero would have virtually no impact on the banking system. US banks are already operating free of any reserve constraints. The graph below shows reserve requirements falling to zero over the last fifty years….”
Eric deCarbonnel

E.M. Smith and other economists, such as Steve Bannon and those he has on the War Room as well as other financial experts are trained (and believe in) Keynesian Economics (IMF.) I prefer Mises and have had arguments with E.M to that effect. (He has started to come around a bit.) It should be noted that Communist spy Harry Dexter White of the US Treasury and Fabian Socialist John Maynard Keyne are the two who saddled the world with the IMF and World Bank via the 1944 Bretton Woods system. I mentioned recently Structural Adjustment Policies, the noose the IMF & World Bank Banksters put around the neck of countries that go bankrupt. There is another Economic Philosophy not connected to the Communists and Fabian Socialists. It was developed by Mises.

Mises on Money by Gary North

This is very long so I want to highlight a few critical points.

#1. Because money is not capital, he [Mises] concluded that an increase of the money supply confers no identifiable social value. If you fail to understand this point, you will not be able to understand the rest of Mises’s theory of money. On this assessment of the value of money, his whole theory of money hinges.
An increase in the quantity of money can no more increase the welfare of the members of a community, than a diminution of it can decrease their welfare. Regarded from this point of view, those goods that are employed as money are indeed what Adam Smith called them, “dead stock, which . . . produces nothing”
#2. New money does not appear magically in equal percentages in all people’s bank accounts or under their mattresses. [New] Money spreads unevenly, and this process has varying effects on individuals, depending on whether they receive early or late access to the new money.
It is these losses of the groups that are the last to be reached by the variation in the value of money which ultimately constitute the source of the profits made by the mine owners and the groups most closely connected with them
[This is a critical point and the reason Bankers can steal our wealth]
This indicates a fundamental aspect of Mises’s monetary theory that is rarely mentioned: the expansion or contraction of money is a zero-sum game. Mises did not use this terminology, but he used the zero-sum concept. Because the free market always maximizes the utility of the existing money supply, changes in the money supply inescapably have the characteristic features of a zero-sum game. Some individuals are made better off by an increase in the money supply; others are made worse off. The existing money is an example of a “fixed pie of social value.” Adding to the money supply does not add to its value.
MISES ON GOLD
…the attempt by modern governments to regulate in any way an international gold standard is always a political ruse to undermine its anti-inflationary bias. “The international gold standard works without any action on the part of governments. It is effective real cooperation of all members of the world-embracing market community. . . . What governments call international monetary cooperation is concerted action for the sake of credit expansion”
“Now, the gold standard is not a game, but a social institution. Its working does not depend on the preparedness of any people to observe arbitrary rules. It is controlled by the operation of inexorable economic law” (p. 462)…..
. . . The role played by ingots in the gold reserves of the banks is a proof that the monetary standard consists in the precious metal, and not in the proclamation of the authorities (p. 67).
In order to effect the acceptance of fiat money or credit money, the State adopts a policy of the abolition of its previous contractual obligations. What was previously a legal right of full convertability into either gold or silver coins is abolished by a new law. The State removes the individual’s legal right to exchange the State’s paper notes for gold or silver coins. It then declares that the new, inconvertible fiat paper money or bank credit money is equal in value to the older redeemable notes, meaning equal to the value of the actual coins previously obtainable through redemption. But the free market determines otherwise. The two forms of money are not equal in value in the judgment of the market’s individual participants. Gresham’s law is still obeyed….
Gresham’s law
The State can set legal prices, meaning exchange ratios, between the various kinds of money. The effects of such fixed exchange rates are identical to the effects of any other kind of price control: gluts and shortages. The artificially overvalued money (glut) replaces the artificially undervalued money (shortage). This cause-and-effect relationship is called Gresham’s law.
MONEY:
Mises therefore defined money as the most marketable commodity. “It is the most marketable good which people accept because they want to offer it in later acts of impersonal exchange” (Human Action, p. 401.).
Money serves as a transmitter of value through time because certain goods serve as media of exchange.
Money transmits value, Mises taught, but money does not measure value. This distinction is fundamental in Mises’s theory of money.
Mises was adamant: there is no measure of economic value.
….Mises concluded that money is neither a consumption good nor a capital good. He argued that production and consumption are possible without money (p. 82). Money facilitates both production and consumption, but it is neither a production good nor a consumption good. Money is therefore a separate analytical category.
“It is illegitimate to compare the part played by money in production with that played by ships and railways. Money is obviously not a ‘commercial tool’ in the same sense as account books, exchange lists, the Stock Exchange, or the credit system”
Because money is not capital, he concluded that an increase of the money supply confers no identifiable social value. If you fail to understand this point, you will not be able to understand the rest of Mises’s theory of money. On this assessment of the value of money, his whole theory of money hinges….
This theory regarding the impact that changes in the money supply have on social value is the basis of everything that follows. Mises offered here a unique assessment of the demand for money. He implied here that an individual’s demand for production goods or consumption goods, when met by increased production, confers an increase in social value or social welfare.
If a producer benefits society by increasing the production of a non-monetary good, later finding a buyer, then society is benefitted because there are at least two winners and no losers.
Therefore, if a producer of gold and a buyer of gold both benefit from an exchange – which they do, or else they would not trade – yet society receives no social benefit, then the analyst has to conclude that some other members of society have been made, or will be made, worse off by the increase in the money supply. This analysis would also apply to decreases in the money supply.
There are two conceptually related issues here: (1) money as a separate analytical category, neither a consumption good nor a production good; (2) changes in the money supply as conveying neither an increase nor decrease in social value.

With that as a background in economics, we look at the Federal Reserve Bank through the eyes of Congressman Wright Patman (D) in 1964 before President Nixon had to close the gold window.

WRIGHT PATMAN Chairman 1964

Again this is very long, which is why I have posted excerpts. However if you want to understand our Central Banking System this is a very good document to read.

President Lincoln said :
“Money is the creature of law, and the creation of the original issue of money should be maintained as an exclusive monopoly of the National Government. The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of the Government, it is the Government’s greatest opportunity.” [pg 16]
This is very important. Although US citizens can not exchange Federal Reserve notes for treasury gold, official and semi official foreign banks can.
Behind the Federal Reserve notes is the credit of the U.S. Government. If you happen to have a $5, $10, or $20 Federal Reserve note, you will notice across the top of the bill a printed statement of the fact that the US government promises to pay not the Federal Reserve promises to pay. Nevertheless most Americans to do not understand what the US Government promises to pay: American citizens holding these notes cannot demand anything for them except (a) they can be exchanged for other Federal Reserve notes or (b) that they be accepted in payment of taxes and all debts public and private. Certain official or semiofficial foreign banks may exchange any “dollar credits” they may hold-that is, deposits with the commercial banks-for an equal amount of the Treasury’s gold. Americans themselves may not exchange them for gold . [pg 19]
Of the 19 Federal Reserve officials 12 are elected by bankers so HOW the money supply is increase and WHO gets the interest on the US treasury bonds can get very interesting.
The Federal Reserve officials can always decide to create a large portion of any increase in the money supply themselves, though, of course, a larger portion of the supply will always be provided by the private banks under present law. Still the larger portion of Reserve-created money, the more the U.S. Treasury benefits-because all income of the Federal Reserve after expenses reverts to the Treasury. Thus the Treasury receives a good share of the income earned from the Government securities purchased in Reserve money-creating operations.
On the other hand, if the Federal Reserve officials decide that the increase in the money supply they want is all, or substantially all, to be made by the private banks, the private banks acquire and hold more Government securities than in the first case, and the interest payments on these securities go into bank profits. So, whether the Federal Reserve officials decide to favor the U.S. Treasury or the private banks does make a difference-millions of dollars of difference-in the amount of taxes you, I, and all other taxpayers must pay. After all, one of the biggest items of expense of the Federal Government is the interest it must pay on its debt. [pg 36]

[JUMPING FORWARD IN TIME]

“…Although the money in the Federal Reserve is not in anyway “owned” by private banks they get paid interest on it….
In its latest power play, on October 3, 2008, the Fed acquired the ability to pay interest to its member banks on the reserves the banks maintain at the Fed. Reuters reported on October 3:”

“The U.S. Federal Reserve gained a key tactical tool from the $700 billion financial rescue package signed into law on Friday that will help it channel funds into parched credit markets. Tucked into the 451-page bill is a provision that lets the Fed pay interest on the reserves banks are required to hold at the central bank.”

[BACK TO WRIGHT PATMAN]

[An incorrect but ] typical explanation runs this way: John Jones deposits $100 in cash with his bank. The bank is required to keep, say, 20 percent of its deposits in reserves, so the bank must deposit $20 of this $100 as reserves, with a Federal Reserve bank. The bank is free to use the other $80, however, to make loans to customers or invest in securities. The expansion of money thus begins. This kind of explanation not only leads to misunderstanding, it also leads to misguided Government policies and rather constant agitation on the part of bankers for other such policies. Many of the smaller bankers who are, on the whole, not as well versed with the mechanics of the money system as they might be, actually believe that they have deposited a portion of their money, or their depositors’ money, with the Federal Reserve. Thus they feel they are being denied the opportunity to make profitable use of this money. Accordingly, there is always agitation to have the Federal Reserve pay the banks interest on this money which they think they have “deposited” with the Federal Reserve.

Furthermore, they are quite certain that the Federal Reserve System has “used” their money to acquire the Government securities which the Federal Reserve may buy in the process of reserve creation. Believing this, the bankers naturally feel that they are entitled to some share of the tremendous profits which the System receives from interest payments on its Government securities. Many bankers know better. The leaders of the bankers’ associations certainly do. But some of these leaders have not hesitated to play on general ignorance and misunderstanding to mobilize the whole banking community behind drives that are nothing but attempts to raid the Public Treasury.

The truth is, however, that the Private banks, collectively, have deposited not a penny of their own funds, or their depositors funds, with the Federal Reserve banks. The impression that they do so arises from the fact that reserves, once created, can be, and are, transferred back and forth from one bank to another, as one bank gains deposits and another loses deposits. [pg 37]
Under Secretary of the Treasury Robert V. Roosa, formerly a Vice President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, while testifying before the House Committee on Banking and Currency in 1960, described the misconception as follows:

“There is another misconception which occurs much more frequently-that is, the banks think that they give us the reserves on which we operate and that, too, is a misconception. We encounter that frequently, and, as you know, we create those reserves under the authority that has been described here.”
The writer [Wright Patman] has had a couple of personal experiences which ‘have provided some amusing confirmation of the fact that the source of bank reserves is not deposits of cash by the member banks with the Federal Reserve banks. having seen reports that the Federal Reserve System had, on a given date, Government securities amounting to a proximately $28 billion, I went on one occasion to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where these securities are supposed to be housed, and asked if I might be allowed to see them. The officials of this bank said, yes, they would be glad to show them to me; whereupon they opened the vaults and let me look at, and even hold in my hand, the large mound of Government securities which they claimed to have and which, in fact, they did have.

Since I had also seen reports that the member banks of the Federal Reserve System had a certain number of millions of dollars in “cash reserves” on deposit with the Federal Reserve bank, I then asked if I might be allowed to see these cash reserves. This time my question was met with some looks of surprise; the bank officials then patiently explained to me that there were no cash reserves. The cash, in truth, does not exist and never has existed. [pg 38]
When the Federal Reserve purchases a $1 million Government bond and gives some bank credit for $1 million in its reserve account, that bank also credits the bond dealer’s checking account with $1 million. I n other words, to acquire $1 million of reserves, the bank also assumes a liability to pay its customers $1 million. If the transactions stopped here, the bank would, of course, come out even, neither gaining anything nor losing anything. But the fact that there is now $1.million more of bank reserves than existed before means that the private banks as a group can create $6 million more money than existed before. In other words, by acquiring this $1 million more in bank reserves, the private banks have the privilege of creating another $6 million of bank deposits, in the process of which they acquire $6 million in interest-bearing securities or loan paper, less an allowance for leakage into the cash (currency) balances of the public. [pg 43]
What amount of Government securities have the private banks acquired with bank-created money?

On January 31, 1964, all commercial banks in this country owned $62.7 billion in U.S. Government securities. The banks have acquired these securities with bank-created money. In other words, the (banks have used the Federal Government’s power to create money without charge to lend $62.7 billion to the Government at interest.

On January 29, 1964, commercial banks had total assets amounting to $304.7 billion, and all of these had been paid for with bank-created money, except $25.4 billion which had been paid for with their stockholders’ capital. In other words, less than 10 percent of the banks’ assets have been acquired with money invested by stockholders in the banks. [pg 46]
The make-up of the Federal Reserve Directors changed in favor of the bankers

The Federal Open Market Committee.
There are 19 participants in this powerful body, 7 appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the Senate of the United States. Once appointed, however, a man serves for a period of 14 years, and cannot be removed by the President or by any other official body, except for cause. The other 12 men in this select group are elected to their places through the votes of private commercial bankers. there are 12 voting members of the Federal Open Market Committee. The voting members consist of 7 members of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, plus some 5 of the 12 Federal Reserve bank residents. [pg 65]
Because of this, the balance of power over the money supply lay securely, it was thought, with the public side of the System through authority of the Board of Governors. But when the move toward the alternative open-market technique of control was given legislative blessing by Congress in 1933 and 1935 and a full-fledged central bank thereby created the balance shifted radically toward the private, commercial banking side of the System. [pg 72]

“ownership” of the fed reserve: Confusion due to stock and elected board members:
The position of the Federal Reserve officials thus seems to be clear :

The Federa1 Reserve banks are not owned by the commercial banks. The viewpoint of the individuals quoted above has also been borne out by the presidents of the Federal Reserve banks in hearings before the House Banking and Currency Committee. However, officials of the Federal Reserve banks are sometimes inclined to take the opposite position. [pg 78]

Do bankers believe that they own the Federal Reserve banks.
Yes. [100% of the “stock” is owned by the private banks. Also after instigating “the Accord” It was later revealed by testimony of some of the Federal Reserve officials to committees of Congress that the Open Market Committee had held a meeting on August 18 and decided not only to raise the discount rate, but to “go their own way” on the Government longer term bond rate as well, despite what the President, the Secretary of the Treasury, and the head of the Office of Defense Mobilization might do”….Therefore the Federal Reserve is not answerable to the President or Congress or the electorate, nor even to a government audit or even Congressional funding!]

The original act required that the banks invest 6 percent of their capital stock in the Federal Reserve banks.

Why was the Federal Reserve Act written to require member banks to invest in the so-called stock of the Federal Reserve banks?
The framers of the Federal Reserve Act gave many reasons, but the main, reason was this: it was expected that the Federal Reserve would issue money, not mainly against Government securities as is now the practice, but against commercial and industrial loan paper-“eligible paper” as the reader knows.
It was in view of these considerations that Congress, in framing the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, required member banks of the Federal Reserve System to put a certain percentage of their capital into the .’stock” of the Federal Reserve banks; this “stock” was a safeguard against a misuse of the Government’s credit which was being delegated to these banks. The 1013 act placed on the member banks, furthermore, a “double liability” for their “stock” in the Federal Reserve banks. In other words, if a Federal Reserve bank failed, the member banks would lose not only their invested capital, but an equal amount of capital which they would also forfeit. [pg 79]
The 1933 act also prohibited commercial banks from making stock market loans, and investment banks from accepting public deposits. This was an effort to prevent a wave of stock market speculation like that of the twenties by keeping commercial banking and investment banking separate and distinct. [pg 84] [Clinton got rid of that and other limits on the banks.]
What changes were made the Banking Act of 1935?
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation was made permanent, and the Board of Governors was given power to change reserve requirements. The act of 1935 had other important revisions :

(1) The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System was changed. Membership no longer included the Secretary of the Treasury and the Comptroller of the Currency, and the number of members was cut from nine to seven. The name, the Federal Reserve Board, was changed to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The reorganized Board, with its increased powers really gave us a central bank for the first time, in place of a system of individual Federal Reserve banks which were largely on their own.

(2) Also of primary importance in creating a true central bank was the establishment of the Federal Open Market Committee to determine purchases and sales of Government securities for the entire System.

(3) Another change made by the 1935 act related to loans of the Federal Reserve banks. This act allowed the Federal Reserve banks to extend reserve bank credit on any type of credit which the commercial bank possessed.

4 ) The 1935 act also contained provisions concerning regulation of bank holding companies. [Pg 84]
Private banks enjoy a very special relationship with the Federal Government. After all, most business firms employ private capital or privately owned resources to produce a product or provide a service which can be profitably sold in the marketplace. Most business firms pay for the raw materials and services they receive, and, furthermore, in the case of most kinds of business firms, the business itself is a risk-taking venture. The firm succeeds or fails in competition with other business firms.
But the conditions under which private banks operate are very different. In the first place, one of the major functions of the private commercial banks is to create money. A large portion of bank profits come from the fact that the banks do create money. And, as we have pointed out, banks create money without cost to themselves, in the process of lending or investing in securities such a Government bonds. Bank profits come from interest on the money lent and invested, while the cost of creating money is negligible. (Banks do incur costs, of course, from bookkeeping to loan officers’ salaries.) The power to create money has been delegated, or loaned, by Congress to the private banks for their free use. There is no charge.
On the contrary, this is but one of the many ways the Government subsidizes the private banking system and protects it from competition. The Government, through the Federal Reserve System, provides a huge subsidy through the free services the System provides for member banks. “Check clearing” is one of the services; i.e., the collection and payment of funds due one bank from another because of depositors’ use of their checkbook money. The costs of this service alone runs into scores of millions of dollars.

The gross expenses of the combined Federal Reserve banks totaled $207 million in 1963, most of which was incurred as a cost of providing free services to the private banks. Other Federal agencies also receive services from the Federal Reserve. But these are not free. The System received about $20 million for “fiscal agency and other expenses” in 1963.
In addition, the Federal Government provides private banks with a large measure of protection from competition, and the hazards of failure. … This means, in brief, that nobody can enter the banking business by opening a national bank, unless the proposed bank is to be located where it will not cause an inconvenient amount of competition to other banks already in business. [pg 89]
In mid-August of 1950, however, the Federal Reserve raised the discount rate and short-term Treasury bills jumped toward 11/2 percent, although there were requests from the Secretary of the Treasury and the President for the System to continue a low-rate policy. It was later revealed by testimony of some of the Federal Reserve officials to committees of Congress that the Open Market Committee had held a meeting on August 18 and decided not only t o raise the discount rate, but to “go their own way” on the Government longer term bond rate as well, despite what the President, the Secretary of the Treasury, and the head of the Office of Defense Mobilization might do….
Since the signing of the so-called accord, in March of 1951, this event has been widely interpreted as an understanding, reached between the Treasury and the Federal Reserve, that the Federal Reserve would henceforth be “independent.” It would no longer ” peg Government bond prices. It would raise or lower interest rates as it might see fit, as a means of trying to prevent inflation or deflation.
These are understandings which have been grafted onto the accord over the years. Certainly, no such understandings were universal at the time the accord was signed. ….
At the end of 1951, then, the Federal Reserve had both self-proclaimed independence, as a result of the accord, and an operational policy which aimed at maximum credit effects through minimum changes in interest rates….. the Federal Reserve people were quite sure that they could do a better job of running the country than the President, and with only slight increases in interest rates. …
It then added another string to its bow- the “bills only” policy. … Henceforth when the Treasury issued bonds or medium-term securities, it was to dump these issues on the market and watch the natural consequences-first a drop in bond prices, then a gradual recovery as the market absorbed the bonds. Any private rigging or manipulations of the market were to go without interference from the Federal Reserve, as were any speculative booms or panics short of a “disorderly” market. The “bil1s-only” policy had only one reservation: The Federal Reserve would buy long-term bonds in the event that the Open Market Committee made a findings that the market was disorderly. [ full details starting on pg 103]
The [Eisenhower ] administration announced at the outset that it would re1y on monetary policy exclusive1y for its economic regulation and would respect the complete independence of the Federal Reserve to carry out these policies as it saw fit …..
Thirteen years have now passed since the accord and the liberation of the Federal Reserve. What have been the results? The major result is shockingly obvious. Interest rates have climbed steadily, with slight interruptions, during the entire post accord period. (See table 3.) The period has been marked, then, by a continual shift of income to the banks, other major financial institutions, and individuals with significant interest income. The rest of the country provided this income. …
Another result of post accord monetary policy is that the U.S. economy has unwittingly become a low investment economy… The Federal Reserve has chosen the high interest, slower growth option for this country.
In fiscal year 1963, the U S Government paid out approximately $10 billion as interest on the national debt. The budget deficit for the same year was $8.8 billion. Much political hay was made with the deficit. It was potential inflationary dynamite, ran the ”no deficit” claim. And these same people strongly supported tighter money and higher interest rates to prevent the otherwise inevitable inflationary explosion. Yet if these people were really worried about the deficit they should have been rabid partisans of a low-interest policy. For it can be shown that last year’s deficit would have been $5 billion less if the Government had not been forced by Federal Reserve policy to pay increasingly more on its outstanding debt. I n fact, the total national debt would now be $40 billion less if the interest rates of the early 1940’s had prevailed in the postwar period.
Moreover, the system eludes even the audit control exercised by the General Accounting Office, whose function it is to make sure that other Federal agencies not only handle their financial affairs properly but also pursue policies and practices that are in accord with the law. The system provides for its own auditing; clutching its mantle of independence, it has stoutly resisted repeated congressional suggestions that the General Accounting Office perform an annual audit.[ pg 121]
Congress has never given authority for determining monetary policy to the Federal Reserve System-and certainly not to a committee within the System containing members who owe their selection to private bank interests. This basic authorization has not been changed by any amendments to the Federal Reserve Act made to date. Yet two evolutions have taken place within the Federal Reserve System, in one instance, without authorization, and, in the other, directly contrary to the expressed intent of the Federal Reserve Act. In brief, the Federal Reserve’s “monetary policies,” as they are practiced today, were never authorized by law…There is little doubt in the author’s mind that if any legal challenge were ever raised to the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies, the courts could hold them unconstitutional.

The First Annual Report of the Board of Governors after passage of the 1935 act opened with a statement that the act “places responsibility for national monetary and credit on the Board of Governors and the Federal Open Market Committee”-although the act contained no reference whatever to monetary policy nor any provision which indicated a change in the convertibility concept on which the 1913 act was drawn. In brief, the Federal Reserve’s “monetary policies,” as they are practiced today, were never authorized by law.

The monetary powers, as has frequently been pointed out, are reserved to the Congress by the constitution. There is no doubt that it is within the prerogative of the Congress to delegate these powers either to the executive branch of the Government or to an independent agency. But it is not within Congress’s constitutional means to delegate these powers without prescribing policy objectives and clear guidelines detailing how the powers may be used. Inevitably, the Supreme Court has held unconstitutional those grants of powers made without any spelling out of the specific objectives and limitations placed on their use [pg 128]

This second change, whatever else it accomplished, did open the door to private banker influence in the formation of monetary policy. T h e regional bank presidents have become policymakers. At the very least, the type of man chosen to become the president of a regional bank affects the bent of Open Market Committee thinking. Now the private bankers have the dominant voice in choosing the regional bank presidents. They are hardly likely to choose and retain man as presidents whose approach to monetary matters does not in general conform to their taste.

I hope you take the time to read these excerpts and do not blow your blood pressure too high.

“Capitalists with government help are the worst of all economic phenomena.” — A. Rand

Rand was wrong, the absolute worst economic phenomenon is “Capitalists with government help ALL paid for by counterfeit money printed by the Robber Baron Bankers”

The book “Bank Control of Large Corporations in the United States” By David M. Kotz, explains how banks use pension funds to buy controlling interest in large corporations among other strategies.

The Nuremberg Code vs US Law and The Push For World Government

TradeBait2 Made the comment:

I have been reminding folks on here – the Fed has to be bankrupted at some point. It will either be by the white hats or the black hats. The Gab post you show is correct for the most part IMO. The Fed has fueled the Great Reset, which is why they could care less about how much debt we have in America because we will not exist as an independent nation in their black hat world.
Digital one world currency is the plan. Why do you think there were coin shortages recently? Why do you think they hate crypto and parallel economies so much? Why do they want America at odds with Russia, but falling right in line with China? Where Xi falls in this I am not certain. But I do know China and the Chi-coms are a CB [central bank] creation.
The linchpin is digital currency.
Follow the money….

That is the first half of the comment

Actually I can see where he is going since I also have warned of this much earlier.

The Push For World Government

A few years ago Soros directed the USA to overthrow the ELECTED government in both Syria and Ukraine. (Trump side stepped both.)

Why? Because the EU is the model for a global government. Soros wanted the EU to annex the Ukraine. The elected president said HE!! NO! so he was ousted and a pro-EU puppet was put in his place who has since been voted out while Trump was in the White House.

Russia tossed Soros out and put out a warrant for him. Russia makes much of their money selling gas to Europe. It also gives them leverage to keep the EU from expanding into their sphere of influence. Soros wants to remove Russia’s leverage by putting in a pipeline from the middle east to Europe. ALL the countries that were opposed to that pipeline have been overthrown EXCEPT for Syria.

If you want a World Government similar to the European Union then you are on Soros side. If you want sovereign nations you are on the side of Russia….. AND I am still of that opinion.

BREXIT THE MOVIE will give you the details on how the EU is actually run.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTMxfAkxfQ0

Former World Trade Organization Director-General Pascal Lamy tells you point blank that the EU is the template for the desired World Government and it has been the plan since the 1930s.

All had lived through the chaos of the 1930s — when turning inwards led to economic depression, nationalism and war. All, including the defeated powers, agreed that the road to peace lay with building a new international order — and an approach to international relations that questioned the Westphalian, sacrosanct principle of sovereignty…
Pascal Lamy, Whither Globalization

Lamy is quite blunt in stating national sovereignty is passé:

…more than half a century ago that the Frenchman Jean Monnet, one of the shapers of post-war Europe, said, “The sovereign nations of the past can no longer provide a framework for the resolution of our present problems. And the European Community itself is no more than a step towards the organizational forms of tomorrow’s world.” His assessment was as valid then as it is now….
Pascal Lamy, Global Governance: Lessons from Europe

Lamy indicates that a super state fashioned after the European Union is the goal and he calls for European-Inspired Global Governance:

This is what Global Warming was really about. We have all seen the political message morph over the decades from Global Warming to Climate Change to Weather Weirding.

As H.L. Mencken said:

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed — and hence clamorous to be led to safety — by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”

In other words, create a crisis to order to implement Diocletian’s Problem-Reaction-Solution

Mencken also warns:

“The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it.”

The UN put the concept into practice via the IPCC. The IPCC mandate states:

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was established by the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in 1988 to assess the scientific, technical and socio-economic information relevant for the understanding of human induced climate change, its potential impacts and options for mitigation and adaptation. http//www.ipcc-wg2.gov/ (No longer available)
IPCC

Notice the IPCC ASSUMES the hypothesis of human induced climate change IS TRUE and goes from there.

With Reagan killing off the Cold War, Pascal Lamy takes ‘Practical Politics’ the next step, by telling us about a “new enemy to unite us” (Global Warming) A global enemy needed to create Legitimacy, one of the ‘four legs’ needed to implement a global government…

I see four main challenges for global governance today.
The first one is leadership, i.e. the capacity to embody a vision and inspire action, in order to create momentum. Who is the leader? Should it be a superpower? A group of national leaders? Selected by whom? Or should it be an international organization?
The second one is efficiency, i.e. the capacity to mobilize resources, to solve the problems in the international sphere, to bring about concrete and visible results for the benefit of the people. The main challenge here is that the Westphalian order gives a premium to “naysayers” who can block decisions, thereby impeding results. The ensuing viscosity of international decision-making puts into question the efficiency of the international system.
The third one is coherence, for the international system is based on specialization. Each international organization focuses on a limited number of issues. The World Trade Organisation deals with trade, the International Labour Organisation with labour issues, the World Meteorological Organisation with meteorology and so the list continues. It is a fact: the UN is not really overarching, assuming this was the initial intention.
The last challenge that I see is that of legitimacy— for legitimacy is intrinsically linked to proximity, to a sense of “togetherness”. By togetherness, I mean the shared feeling of belonging to a community. This feeling, which is generally strong at the local level, tends to weaken significantly as distance to power systems grows. It finds its roots in common myths, a common history, and a collective cultural heritage. It is no surprise that taxation and redistribution policies remain mostly local!
There is one place where attempts to deal with these challenges have been made and where new forms of governance have been tested for the last 60 years: in Europe. The European construction is the most ambitious experiment in supranational governance ever attempted up to now. It is the story of a desired, delineated and organized interdependence between its Member States…. http://www.wto.org/english/news_e/sppl_e/sppl220_e.htm
Pascal Lamy

In another presentation Lamy again addresses the problem of legitimacy:

It gives me great pleasure to be here today to participate in this thematic debate on the United Nations in global governance, an issue of the utmost importance given the urgency of the global challenges we are facing… As for legitimacy, I see two avenues to strengthen it. First, domestically, by increasing the visibility of international issues and giving citizens a greater say…. https://archive.globalpolicy.org/social-and-economic-policy/the-three-sisters-and-other-institutions/global-governance-and-the-three-sisters-1-11/50398-lamy-urges-raising-un-ecosoc-profile.html%3Fitemid=id.html
Pascal Lamy

By now, with Al Gore exiting stage left, Trump entering stage right, it is pretty obvious that ‘Global Warming’ has lost its high panic factor and the climb down is in progress. However the need for a ‘Crisis to Unite Us’ and a reason to implement ‘Agenda 21 – Sustainability’ and ‘Global Governance’ still remains. WORSE for the Globalists the fiat currency central banking system is on its last legs and about to IMPLODE, as many people like Dave of the X22 Report and Clif High and others have been warning us. Up to now we have been wondering what the next hobgoblin would be. And now we know it’s COVID -19!!! A Bio-Weapon and a Poison Jab that kills off a lot of the population, crashes the world economy and ushers in a Vaccine Digital Passport soon to be linked to the BRAND NEW DIGITAL WORLD CURRENCY and Social Credit Score.

And that brings us to the second part of TradeBait2’s comment.

…… You do not want to use the Nuremberg Code as your get out jail free card from jabs. You fall into the hands of international law superseding national law. It’s a set up, don’t fall for it.
Cannot tell you the number of times I have prepared a post and deleted it because I doubted folks on here would pay attention or believe it. This is the world I lived in for 35 years and escaped.

As I showed above that “international law superseding national law” is exactly what Pascal Lamy was yammering about a decade ago and what Klaus Schwab is threatening us with now.

So how do we escape this TRAP if it is being set?

Use USA LAW!

I find it interesting that the internet is FULL of the Nuremberg Code…….

……and the GERMAN/CALIFORNIA LAWYER Reiner Füllmich and 50 Lawyers, but I went nutz trying to find the US LAWS. It took me over ½ hour.

And WHY does Reiner Füllmich have no problem with YouTube???? When everyone else gets the boot?

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Reiner+F%C3%BCllmich+youtube&t=brave&ia=videos&iax=videos

JW in Germany even brought us this comment:

I watched it for about half an hour and thought it was important enough to post here. The dozens of witnesses/experts that will be speaking in the next days are from around the world…many of the names you may already know.
Day 1 Opening Session of the Grand Jury Proceeding
A group of international lawyers and a judge are conducting criminal investigation modeled after Grand Jury proceedings in order to present to the public all available evidence of Covid 19 Crimes Against Humanity to date against “leaders, organizers, instigators, and accomplices” who aided, abetted, or actively participated in the formulation and execution of a common plan for a pandemic

Those are things that make you go HMMMmmm…..

I think Reiner Füllmich and his group is sincere but it is very very possible they are being used.

So after a LOT of digging at Cornell Law I found the provision that covers the situation for the military: 10 U.S.C. § 1107. “This provision prohibits the administration of investigational new drugs, or drugs unapproved for their intended use, to service members without their informed consent.”

And finally after a lot more searching I stumbled across the information that civilians are covered under a FDA Regulation and not a law:

No informed consent, whether oral or written, may include any exculpatory language through which the subject or the representative is made to waive or appear to waive any of the subject’s legal rights, or releases or appears to release the investigator, the sponsor, the institution, or its agents from liability for negligence.

[Code of Federal Regulations]
[Title 21, Volume 1]

TITLE 21–FOOD AND DRUGS
CHAPTER I–FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

SUBCHAPTER A – GENERAL
PART 50 — PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS
Subpart B – Informed Consent of Human Subjects
Sec. 50.24 Exception from informed consent requirements for emergency research.
(a) The IRB responsible for the review, approval, and continuing review of the clinical investigation described in this section may approve that investigation without requiring that informed consent of all research subjects be obtained if the IRB (with the concurrence of a licensed physician who is a member of or consultant to the IRB and who is not otherwise participating in the clinical investigation) finds and documents each of the following:
(1) The human subjects are in a life-threatening situation, available treatments are unproven or unsatisfactory, and the collection of valid scientific evidence, which may include evidence obtained through randomized placebo-controlled investigations, is necessary to determine the safety and effectiveness of particular interventions.
(2) Obtaining informed consent is not feasible because:
(i) The subjects will not be able to give their informed consent as a result of their medical condition;
(ii) The intervention under investigation must be administered before consent from the subjects’ legally authorized representatives is feasible; and
(iii) There is no reasonable way to identify prospectively the individuals likely to become eligible for participation in the clinical investigation.
(3) Participation in the research holds out the prospect of direct benefit to the subjects because:
(i) Subjects are facing a life-threatening situation that necessitates intervention;
(ii) Appropriate animal and other preclinical studies have been conducted, and the information derived from those studies and related evidence support the potential for the intervention to provide a direct benefit to the individual subjects; and
(iii) Risks associated with the investigation are reasonable in relation to what is known about the medical condition of the potential class of subjects, the risks and benefits of standard therapy, if any, and what is known about the risks and benefits of the proposed intervention or activity.
(4) The clinical investigation could not practicably be carried out without the waiver.
(5) The proposed investigational plan defines the length of the potential therapeutic window based on scientific evidence, and the investigator has committed to attempting to contact a legally authorized representative for each subject within that window of time and, if feasible, to asking the legally authorized representative contacted for consent within that window rather than proceeding without consent. The investigator will summarize efforts made to contact legally authorized representatives and make this information available to the IRB at the time of continuing review.
(6) The IRB has reviewed and approved informed consent procedures and an informed consent document consistent with § 50.25. These procedures and the informed consent document are to be used with subjects or their legally authorized representatives in situations where use of such procedures and documents is feasible. The IRB has reviewed and approved procedures and information to be used when providing an opportunity for a family member to object to a subject’s participation in the clinical investigation consistent with paragraph (a)(7)(v) of this section.
(7) Additional protections of the rights and welfare of the subjects will be provided, including, at least:
(i) Consultation (including, where appropriate, consultation carried out by the IRB) with representatives of the communities in which the clinical investigation will be conducted and from which the subjects will be drawn;
(ii) Public disclosure to the communities in which the clinical investigation will be conducted and from which the subjects will be drawn, prior to initiation of the clinical investigation, of plans for the investigation and its risks and expected benefits;
(iii) Public disclosure of sufficient information following completion of the clinical investigation to apprise the community and researchers of the study, including the demographic characteristics of the research population, and its results;
(iv) Establishment of an independent data monitoring committee to exercise oversight of the clinical investigation; and
(v) If obtaining informed consent is not feasible and a legally authorized representative is not reasonably available, the investigator has committed, if feasible, to attempting to contact within the therapeutic window the subject’s family member who is not a legally authorized representative, and asking whether he or she objects to the subject’s participation in the clinical investigation. The investigator will summarize efforts made to contact family members and make this information available to the IRB at the time of continuing review.
(b) The IRB is responsible for ensuring that procedures are in place to inform, at the earliest feasible opportunity, each subject, or if the subject remains incapacitated, a legally authorized representative of the subject, or if such a representative is not reasonably available, a family member, of the subject’s inclusion in the clinical investigation, the details of the investigation and other information contained in the informed consent document. The IRB shall also ensure that there is a procedure to inform the subject, or if the subject remains incapacitated, a legally authorized representative of the subject, or if such a representative is not reasonably available, a family member, that he or she may discontinue the subject’s participation at any time without penalty or loss of benefits to which the subject is otherwise entitled. If a legally authorized representative or family member is told about the clinical investigation and the subject’s condition improves, the subject is also to be informed as soon as feasible. If a subject is entered into a clinical investigation with waived consent and the subject dies before a legally authorized representative or family member can be contacted, information about the clinical investigation is to be provided to the subject’s legally authorized representative or family member, if feasible.
(c) The IRB determinations required by paragraph (a) of this section and the documentation required by paragraph (e) of this section are to be retained by the IRB for at least 3 years after completion of the clinical investigation, and the records shall be accessible for inspection and copying by FDA in accordance with § 56.115(b) of this chapter.
(d) Protocols involving an exception to the informed consent requirement under this section must be performed under a separate investigational new drug application (IND) or investigational device exemption (IDE) that clearly identifies such protocols as protocols that may include subjects who are unable to consent. The submission of those protocols in a separate IND/IDE is required even if an IND for the same drug product or an IDE for the same device already exists. Applications for investigations under this section may not be submitted as amendments under §§ 312.30 or 812.35 of this chapter.
(e) If an IRB determines that it cannot approve a clinical investigation because the investigation does not meet the criteria in the exception provided under paragraph (a) of this section or because of other relevant ethical concerns, the IRB must document its findings and provide these findings promptly in writing to the clinical investigator and to the sponsor of the clinical investigation. The sponsor of the clinical investigation must promptly disclose this information to FDA and to the sponsor’s clinical investigators who are participating or are asked to participate in this or a substantially equivalent clinical investigation of the sponsor, and to other IRB’s that have been, or are, asked to review this or a substantially equivalent investigation by that sponsor.
[61 FR 51528, Oct. 2, 1996]

And now we go to USA lawyer, Attorney Thomas Renz and his interview on Bannon’s War Room.

Episode 1,619 – Beijing Olympics Fail; Legal/Financial Investigations Of Big Pharma

https://rumble.com/vu5amo-episode-1619-beijing-olympics-fail-legalfinancial-investigations-of-big-pha.html

ROUGH TRANSCRIPT (start at 18:15)

ATTORNEY THOMAS RENZ: We have to get it to the public and that is where the War room is so important.
Se are going to be submitting this to a case in Alabama. We are going to be submitting ths to a number of different places in the military, ahhh I guess law enforcement world. And we are looking to bring this into the civilian law enforcement as well. There is no question as to what is happening. These are major crimes and you know Steve, I don’t know if you have got this but we just yesterday, dated February 4th, got a document from the CDC that re-affirms everything we said last week when we said they know this. If you are interested that document actually says it is was in the meeting yesterday, it was presented yesterday it says the CDC is working to monitor these things and they are monitoring the DOD data. Which indicates to me, I don’t know if you have heard the DOD s response? DOD to me has committed fraud and conspiracy. They have said there baseline data from 2016 to 2020 was wrong. They didn’t notice it until we pointed it out in the whistle blower testimony. But some how even though they didn’t notice it, it magically got corrected in 2021.

I mean seriously, How stupid do they think the American people are?

STEVE BANNON: What about adjudicating this. What about Alabama? (21:40)

RENZ: We have a case in Alabama where we are challenged the EUA authorization of the vaccine….. Balance of harm tests…. Generally you have to show more benefit than injury… we are also challenging on mis branding, because the CDC changed the definition of vaccines so they could call these gene therapies a vaccine. BTW Pfizer and Moderna have admitted they are gene therapy in their documents. And we have challenged it on several other fronts so that’s in court. This document and all this DOD stuff just came to us. We have declarations under penalty of perjury and those declarations will be submitted to the court. They are getting updated right now because we’ve had this new data come forward related to this…. We have been working with attorneys all over the world and around the country… and we have been getting this data out and we are giving it to anyone who wants to use it anywhere they can. And we believe it will help. We have to find the right court like you said. Until we find a court that is willing to listen and have an evidentiary hearing, it’s tough. We are going to have more info on that coming up…..

STEVE: asks about military JAG system and Senator Johnson. Senator Johnson first.

RENZ: The problem for Senator Johnson is he is not getting enough support from other Senators. He has gotten NO RESPONSE from anyone else [including Rand Paul but he does not say that.]

STEVE: What about JAG? [24:50]

RENZ: Since the data has only been out for a week or two, we are working thru a number of JAG officers….. I got another letter this week…. From all places the Texas National Guard, one of the people there saying they are going to reject all the religious exemptions and we don’t want doctors giving medical exemptions. They actually say they view it as a COMMAND ISSUE and not a medical issue. So if a doctor thinks a soldier should not have this for a medical reason, they are to shut-up and take orders according to this document. We submitted that to Senator Johnson as well as some others.

This is a disaster in the military and they have created a situation where it is very very difficult for our solders to fight this. We do however have quite a number of military personnel stepping forward. And quite a number of JAG officers and others who, because of the publicity we have gotten on this, in the last week or so, are now wiling to step up and do something so we’ll see.

It goes on to Edward Dowd about the insurance industry data about unexpected deaths in working age people from there. Steve Bannon mentions that Zero Hedge covered the information given too. Suicide? How Some Life Insurance Companies Are Dealing With Experimental Vaccines Deaths

A very informative earlier video from the War Room showing the DOD changing the data from Thomas Renz. It also has Ed Dowd, a Financial guru who worked for Blackrock…. Yeah, Blackrock. He is calling out not only the vaccine manufacturers but the FDA for massive FINANCIAL fraud similar to ENRON. The video also has an interview with Dr Malone.

From 27:00 to 35:15 minutes

Big Pharma – Government – University Collusion on COVID Vaccines

Newly Uncovered COVID Vaccine Contracts Lead Unexpectedly to Academic Corruption and Shill Science Attacks on Honest, Skeptical Scientists

A Gail Combs deep dive into a tangent of Karen Kingston’s latest revelation on Pfizer Comirnaty vaccine deaths and injuries, leads back to the war against truth-telling doctors and scientists – this time by their own CORRUPT university employers.

PREFACE by Wolf Moon

Remember people saying that there was no such thing as the “FDA-approved” Comirnaty version of the Pfizer vaccine in existence?

Well, it turns out that REAL, LIVE COMIRNATY is out there, it has already killed over 50 people [in VAERS – yeah – do the math – x20 (1000), x40 (2000), or x100 (5000)], and – now even more shocking – there was some kind of bureaucratic screw-up in the contract and approval process which makes Pfizer LIABLE for all the deaths and injuries.

Look – I don’t know about the latter part – that’s “the law”, which is basically filled with LIES at this point. Whether any of these people will ever answer for anything is highly debatable, in my opinion.

But that’s not where this goes.

Gail Combs started looking at this video, and discovered ANOTHER scandal – the fact that universities which are silencing and firing honest doctors and scientists are not doing so from some misperception or moral high ground. These universities are turning on honest doctors and scientists because the universities themselves are COMPROMISED – by money, corruption, and the involvement of OTHER scientists at those same universities in the “scamdemic”.

We don’t yet know how deep this goes, but we do know this – the universities are clearly in cover-up mode. It’s not just limited to the vaccines. Fauci’s horrifying executioner remdesivir was forwarded past Trump, thanks to “work” done at one such university.

Follow along with Gail and you’ll see the SHAME of what has happened to many American universities, once bastions of free thinking and HONESTY – now CORRUPT and enemies of TRUTH.

START HERE….

FDA Broke Pfizer’s EUA Shield: Liability Protection Gone, Time To Bring Down The Gavel (10 minutes)

Stew Peters Show, Published January 26, 2022

LINK: https://www.redvoicemedia.com/2022/01/fda-broke-pfizers-eua-shield-liability-protection-gone-time-to-bring-down-the-gavel/

LINK: https://rumble.com/vtcugv-fda-broke-pfizers-eua-shield-liability-protection-gone-time-to-bring-down-t.html

Stew Peters interviews former Pfizer employee and analyst Karen Kingston, who does deep dives into patents and contracts. She found the three major contracts for Moderna, J&J and Pfizer.

Stew: “Karen says she found contracts showing the DOD was in control of what data went to the FDA from vaccine trials. If that is true, then DOD not Big Pharm, was the central figure in any vaccine cover-up…. Military leaders maybe exposed as well…. When the FDA approved the Pfizer vax under the name Cormirnaty, it somehow broke their immunity shield.”

That is not exactly correct. DOD delegated it to Pfizer. With the Pfizer contract with the US Army, it appears that, it was delegated to Pfizer to have the ability to manipulate the data that was submitted to the FDA.

With the Moderna contract for example it shows HHS [US Dept of Health & Human Services] had the authority to manipulate the data that was submitted to the FDA. The contract date is 4/03/2020 for ½ billion $$$ with NIH subsidizing a lot of the contract. It was for producing 100 million mRNA vaccines. The contract (shown) states:

* Contractor shall submit draft FDA submission to BARDA at least 15 days prior to FDA submission
* BARDA will provide feedback to Contractor within 10 days of receipts
* The Contractor MUST address, in writing its consideration of all concerns raised by BARDA prior to FDA Submission.

NOTICE THE DATE 4/03/202. No wonder they wanted to kill HCQ in April!

April 7, 2020 Trump’s Critics Attack His Optimistic Case for Hydroxychloroquine

Karen goes on to say that the contract says that BARDA can provide EDITS to the Data and THAT gets submitted to the FDA. She has never seen anything like this before. This [editing] is why the data was so phenomenally positive. This explains why the Whistle Blowers at Ron Johnson’s Formun found the DOD data had been ‘edited’ to remove the tons of adverse events.

She also said a lot of that contract is redacted including the Key personnel at BARDA .

The J&J contract of an mRNA vaccine was signed 08-Apr-2015 and 60 out of the 90 pages are redacted.

She then goes into the most recent contract. It is a joint mission of Dept of Defense and Dept of Health & Human services who contract with Pfizer/BoiNTech “for the co-development and distribution (excluding China) of a potential mRNA-based Coronavirus vaccine aimed at preventing Covid-19 infection“….. LOTS OF REDACTION….

Again the DATE July 20 2018 shows mRNA vaccines for the next outbreak of Covid WAS A DONE DEAL!

@5:00 Karen EXPLAINS the OOPS in the Contract. You can not have a contract for commercialization WITHOUT A FDA APPROVAL DATE!!! So how in Hades did they KNOW there would be FDA APPROVAL? This shows it was PRE-PLANNED IN 2018.

@7:00 She also found the Cormirnaty lots used in the USA and the VAERs data

So who is BARDA?

Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA)

WE ARE BARDA
The Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, provides an integrated, systematic approach to the development of the necessary vaccines, drugs, therapies, and diagnostic tools for public health medical emergencies such as chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) accidents, incidents and attacks, pandemic influenza, and emerging infectious diseases.
Together with our industry partners, BARDA promotes the advanced development of medical countermeasures to protect Americans and respond to 21st century health security threats.

About NIH | National Institutes of Health (NIH)
A part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH is the largest biomedical research agency in the world

So there is your Fauci connection.

And that brings me to the digging I have been doing.

I start with the Chair of the COVID VACCINE ADVISORY BOARD, Hana El Sahly, M.D. of Baylor College of Medicine. She is the one who wrote the Remdesivir paper for Fauci, just in the nick of time so he could get that toxin approved for the use in hospitalized elderly Covid patients.

Baylor College rang a major bell with me. This Yahoo News articles shows why:

Dr. Peter McCullough Sued by Baylor After Appearance on Stew Peters Show…

Dr. Peter McCullough is being sued by the healthcare system that just mandated 40,000 employees to get the jab, and they’re doing it out of spite. Here’s the list of emails to those targeting him, if you wish to let them know how you feel….

Sidebar by Wolf – Dr. McCullough on Stew Peters

I dare anybody to watch this and find anything wrong with anything that Peter McCullough is saying. He is basically admitting – at a time when social media was still removing people for saying as much – that the vaccines seemed to no longer be working. And NOW we know why – because of the delta variant.

Dec 20 2021

Doctor fired for spreading COVID misinformation finds supportive Crowd in Bartlesville.

Dr. Peter McCullough, a Dallas cardiologist who is largely discredited by the scientific community [Remember Dr McCullough is the MOST PUBLISHED AUTHOR OF SCIENTIFIC PAPERS IN THE USA.] for his assertions that the COVID-19 vaccines are unsafe and that early treatment options have been suppressed….
While McCullough said that doctors were probably afraid to show up to the event, one of Oklahoma’s top infectious disease physicians, Dr. Anuj Malik, director of infection prevention and control at Ascension St. John, said that the doctors he spoke to were not afraid to attend. They were just not interested in sitting through what would be seen as a “politically-motivated, ideological speech by a modern-day quack.”
Malik said. “With all due respect, none of McCullough’s ideas have been supported by any randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trials,” [<=== THIS IS ALWAYS THE EXCUSE! NO data is allowed except that PAID FOR BY BIG PHARMA/NIH.]
McCullough shared what he said was a threatening letter from the American Board of Internal Medicine warning that he could lose his certification for spreading misinformation.
There is likely a good reason for his concern about losing certification. A Dallas County court granted a temporary restraining order against him in July on behalf of Baylor Scott & White Health for continuing to claim titles, including vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center, even after he was fired from Baylor in February.
In addition, an article in Medscape, an online global news source for physicians and healthcare professionals, reported that Texas A&M College of Medicine, Texas Christian University and University of North Texas Health Science Center School of Medicine have also cut ties with McCullough for spreading misinformation….

So the Baylor Connection made me curious.

And looky what I found! No wonder Baylor sued Dr McCollough in the hopes of shutting him up as they entice people to be lab rats!

Baylor launches clinical trial for COVID-19 vaccine booster

Researchers at the Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Unit at Baylor College of Medicine have launched a clinical trial to study the safety and efficacy of a booster dose of the Moderna-mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine…. The study is being conducted by the Infectious Disease Clinical Research Consortium in collaboration with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health…. “It’s important to determine the magnitude of the immune response after a booster dose in persons who received different vaccines in their initial vaccine regimen. We will also be looking at the safety of a booster dose,” said Dr. Robert Atmar, professor of infectious diseases at Baylor and co-principal investigator of the national study.
This activity is supported by the Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Consortium (IDCRC) through the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) (UM1AI148684). The IDCRC, consisting of the Vaccine Treatment and Evaluation Units (VTEUs) and the IDCRC Leadership Group, was formed in 2019 to support the planning and implementation of infectious diseases clinical research that efficiently addresses the scientific priorities of NIAID. The consortium includes infectious diseases leaders and clinical researchers from Emory University, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine, Cincinnati Children’s Medical Center and University of Cincinnati, FHI360, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Johns Hopkins University, Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute, New York University, Saint Louis University, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham, University of Rochester, University of Washington, and NIAID.

Bio Robert Atmar

Dr. Atmar is a member of the Baylor Vaccine Research Center and the federally funded Vaccine Treatment and Evaluation Unit (VTEU). This research group performs Phase I to Phase IV studies of experimental and licensed vaccines, and Dr. Atmar serves as Principal Investigator or Co-Investigator for the clinical trials. Dr. Atmar and the research group have been involved in important studies that led to the licensure of live attenuated and high dose inactivated influenza virus vaccines. They also have performed many studies evaluating vaccines targeting pandemic influenza, including H5N1, H9N2 and H7N9 viruses, and they have evaluated methods to improve vaccine immunogenicity, including delivery of vaccine by different routes of administration, different dosages, and with different adjuvant preparations. The group has also evaluated vaccines targeting other pathogens, including those with importance to biodefense.

SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination During Pregnancy: A Complex Decision.

Wang EW, Parchem JG, Atmar RL, Clark EH.Open Forum Infect Dis.

2021 Apr 10

Abstract
As the first severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines passed UK and US regulatory milestones in late 2020 and early 2021, multiple professional societies offered recommendations to assist pregnant and breastfeeding people as they choose whether to undergo vaccination. Despite such guidance, the lack of data describing vaccine safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy in pregnant and breastfeeding people has made this decision challenging for many. However, even considering the paucity of data, the known risks of coronavirus disease 2019 during pregnancy likely outweigh the not yet fully elucidated risks of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, which have reassuring safety and efficacy profiles among nonpregnant people.

The Chair of the FDA Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee is so compromised she should NEVER have been anywhere near the approval process!

Summary

After viewing the tape of Dr. Peter McCullough on Stew Peters, I’m both shocked and disappointed that Baylor (IMO both the College of Medicine and the allied University) would do anything except DEFEND Dr. McCullough for simply speaking TRUTH when nobody else dared to say it.

At a time when all of social media was defending what now amounts to SCIENTIFIC ERROR, Baylor – a renowned institution – accused a TRUTH-TELLER of “misinformation” for being on the cutting edge.

To borrow from Trump…… “SAD!”

We know now that everything Dr. Peter McCullough said was not only true, but that the science he cited was LEADING EDGE – pointing in the direction of future findings.

It is not “misinformation” to state scientific and medical findings which are both TRUE and in the process of CHANGING narratives. That IS what science is supposed to do.

China won’t have to fire a SHOT to steal academic leadership from the United States, if Baylor – in TEXAS of all places – is going to hand them scientific superiority on a silver platter.

Get the politics and the self-dealing OUT OF YOUR SCIENCE, BAYLOR.

It is a TRAVESTY for you, Baylor, to let your “big money scientists” force out your TRUTH-TELLERS based on POLITICS and motivated by their own SCIENTIFIC MISJUDGMENTS.

Preface by Wolf Moon

Follow along as Gail Combs digs down a snake-infested rabbit hole from something that Dr. Robert Malone mentioned on Joe Rogan.

Once you understand how much preparation went into what is going on RIGHT NOW, you’ll realize that all the usual suspects had a plan, and it’s exactly what we’re seeing now, except they weren’t banking on us understanding their criminal conspiracy.

2:40:50 “We are in an environment where truth and consequences are fungible. This is Modern media management and warfare. The Truth is what those that are managing ‘The Trusted News Initiative’ say it is. “

Trusted News Initiative
How news organisations can rebuild trust and tackle the next disinformation challenges.
Trust In News
The BBC’s Trusted News Initiative is a partnership that includes organisations such as Facebook, Twitter, Reuters and The Washington Post. It is the only forum in the world of its kind designed to take on disinformation in real time. Now we and our partners are going to share what we’ve all learned about how to tackle disinformation, and you are invited.

Trusted News Initiative or Corrupted News Initiative? Mission: Systematic censorship of the world’s top public health experts

In this August 13, 2021 article for Global Research, Elizabeth Woodworth explains how the Trusted News Initiative (TNI) was formed and what it means to our modern society.
According to Woodsworth, even before the pandemic, there has been a continued increase in public distrust to mainstream media. The TNI began in July 2019 when BBC Director-General Tony Hall convened various media companies and Big Tech companies to “arrive at a practical set of actions we can take together, right now, to tackle the rise of misinformation and bias…[by creating a] global alliance for integrity in news…to promote freedom and democracy worldwide”.
From the beginning, the goal of TNI was to counter “anti-vaxxers [who] were gaining traction on social media as a part of a “fake news” movement spreading “misleading and dangerous information”….
TNI has become an instrumental tool for the suppression of life-saving information….

CISM Military World Games – U.S. Department of Defense

Top U.S. military athletes are competing against their counterparts from more than 100 nations during the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan, China, Oct. 18-28.

Did the Military World Games Spread COVID-19?

The 2019 Military World Games, branded the “Peace Games,” was the largest military sports event ever held in China. More than 9,000 athletes representing the militaries of more than 100 countries competed in 27 sports…

Whistleblower: 2019 Wuhan Military Games Were China’s First Intentional COVID Super-Spreader Event

On July 21, 2021, Lawrence Sellin, Ph.D. broke the news on The Gateway Pundit from a China source that the release of COVID-19 at the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan was a test of the longer-term effects of that type of bioweapon because foreign visitors to the Games would carry it back to their own countries and the consequences could be observed. . .

While Collins, Fauci, hospitals and medical boards moved to silence and censor ALL opinions by dissenting experts, the Trusted News Initiative also muzzled anyone else not advocating for the Clot Shot. However Mr Global went even further than censorship and threatening jobs and medical licenses.

She was mostly raised by her Chinese grandmother, who spoke no English. She was a very dignified woman who clearly was a huge influence in Priscilla’s life…. But the precise details of how the family arrived in America are unclear. Reports in China say they came originally from the city of Xuzhou in eastern Chandong province, also the home city of Rupert Murdoch’s wife Wendi Deng. Others say that the family lived in Nanjing, an industrial town 150 miles west of Shanghai, before leaving to live first in Hong Kong and later in the US.
A source at the Asian-American Civic Association in Boston said it was ‘highly likely’ the family spent time in a refugee camp, either in Hong Kong or on arrival in the US.
Priscilla’s father said he was a refugee who had lived in Vietnam, according to Thai-born Napat

Study Description

Brief Summary:

This study will distribute videos of health professionals encouraging Covid-19 vaccination to a large sample of Facebook users, and will test the most effective ways to maximize diffusion of this vaccine-related content to increase vaccination rates. The study sample will be U.S. states where vaccination rates remained low in fall 2021. The experimental design is an RCT with 4 groups, randomized at the county level: 1) a control group which receives no intervention, 2) a treatment group in which Facebook users receive ads which include videos of health professionals telling them to get vaccinated, 3) a treatment group in which Facebook users receive ads which include videos of health professionals encouraging them to help their friends to get vaccinated, and 4) a treatment group in which Facebook users receive ads which include videos of health professionals encouraging them to get their most influential friends to help their friends get vaccinated. In treatments 3 and 4, participants will have the option to sign up to be a “vaccine ambassador,” in which case they will get notifications when the study team posts new vaccine-related content, and will receive reminders about encouraging their friends to be vaccinated. The vaccine ambassadors will also be entered into a lottery to win prizes. The study team is building a website to host the videos of health professionals which answer common questions about Covid-19 vaccination. The investigators will measure engagement with the vaccine-related content as well as assess effects on vaccination rates at the county level.

Interventional (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment :	40,000,000 participants
Allocation:	Randomized
Intervention Model:	Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description:	There are four arms in the study which geographic areas are assigned to in parallel. The geographic areas in the three treatment arms will receive a Facebook ad campaign over the same time period to one another.
Masking:	None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose:	Treatment
Official Title:	Increasing the Effectiveness and Diffusion of COVID-19 Messaging for Vaccination
Actual Study Start Date :	December 22, 2021

Brief Summary:

Social technologies for health have already become essential means for providing underserved populations greater social connectedness and increased access to novel health information. However, these technologies have also had negative unintended consequences. The resulting digital divide in social technology takes many forms – from explicit racism that excludes African American and Latinx populations from the resources enjoyed by White and Asian members of online communities, to self-segregation for the purposes of identity preservation and community-building that unintentionally results in limited informational diversity in underserved communities. The result is an often unnoticed, but highly consequential compounding of inequities.
This research seeks to use an online social network approach to address these challenges, in which the investigators demonstrate how reducing the online levels of network centralization and network homophily among African American community members directly increases their productive engagement with health-promoting information.

Conclusion by Wolf Moon

Do you see it now? They knew exactly what they were doing. Schiff’s kabuki with Zuckerberg was like a GO signal to start the censorship.

That creepy pedophile loser, the compromised Dem Rep on the committee that’s SUPPOSED to control the IC, but is in fact CONTROLLED BY IT, signals to the IC social media that’s SUPPOSED to serve us, but in fact SERVES THE IC, that they need to start censoring us by removing InfoWars and Natural News.

It ALL makes sense now.

CHICOMS. These people are no better than CHICOMS. Allies of the enemies of America. Traitors of the worst kind.

Who Approved and Upheld These Vaccines? The Covid Second Opinion Forum Held by Ron Johnson vs. the FDA Vaccines & Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC)

A background research post by Gail Combs

PREFACE

by Wolf Moon

It is useful for me to explain Gail’s post – to help you understand the importance of it.

People in government regulation of science and medicine do not make decisions in a vacuum – but they may make their decisions in an artificial atmosphere which is created, composed, and altered by those with the extreme power and ability to CONTROL INFORMATION.

LancetGate was very demonstrative of this ability to control science and medicine.

After watching a variety of FDA decisions under the Trump and Biden administrations, it has become very clear to me that FDA resides in a political and economic crosswinds, highly influenced by many parties with strong expectations and abilities to influence. And yet, the shocking (but welcome) advisory recommendation AGAINST COVID vaccine boosters – then overridden by the political operative Rochelle ~~Alinsky~~ Walensky in CDC – shows how a coordinated injection of honest medicine and common sense into FDA decision-making (THANK YOU, Steve Kirsch!) can sometimes make its case heard – even if only momentarily.

Sadly, it seems to me that Pfizer is back in the driver’s seat again. We thus have to ask WHY.

What Gail has done is to look at one endpoint of the argument (frontline doctors and publishing scientists who have run into the problems), which leads to the other, where we begin to find the reasons why FDA generally decides things in favor of big industry and big government, and not to the benefit of individual patients and doctors.

By looking at the doctors and scientists who supported logical and ethical TREATMENT of COVID-19, and who were wrongly and unethically BLOCKED and DENIED PERMISSION at every point – we can see that undue industry and political influence in NIH, CDC, and FDA are most likely responsible for decisions that make absolutely no sense to truly independent scientists and doctors. The video Gail includes is rather astounding in terms of showing us how much went wrong. What we are now seeing reminds me of science and medicine in the Soviet Union. Absolutely incredible.

What Gail has done here is to “follow the influence” – to show that FDA decision-making has NOT been in a vacuum, precisely because the members of the FDA advisory committee are not truly independent, but are in fact actors for the very same powerful forces that benefit from FDA decisions which are now inscrutable at the doctor-patient frontline.

Perhaps even more astoundingly, the very SYSTEM of NIH, FDA, and CDC seems to be designed, at this point, to leave NOBODY ACCOUNTABLE. Advisory groups and even department responsibilities are created, rearranged, and dismissed, so that NOBODY takes responsibility for mandates that defy logic and even violate the common medical sense of the past.

If something goes wrong in this chaotic system of responsibilities in the wrong places, you either blame everybody or nobody at all. This is why, in my opinion, the entire federal governent had to get rid of Trump.

DIG ALONG WITH GAIL, as she finds the CLUES – first in the testimony of Ron Johnson’s witnesses – then in the backgrounds of members of an important FDA advisory panel.

With that, here’s Gail.

MANY THANKS TO GA/FL and Wolf M00n for alerting us to the Covid 2nd opinion Forum

Here’s a must watch – A SECOND OPINION – SENATOR RON JOHNSON FORUM.
Begins at 40:19 – https://rumble.com/vt62y6-covid-19-a-second-opinion.html
“Discussion begins around 40 minute mark. Sen. Ron Johnson moderates a panel discussion, COVID-19: A Second Opinion. A group of world renowned doctors and medical experts provide a different perspective on the global pandemic response, the current state of knowledge of early and hospital treatment, vaccine efficacy and safety, what went right, what went wrong, what should be done now, and what needs to be addressed long term.”

It is five hours long and I went through the whole video. I recommend listening to it as you work on other things since there is not much to watch. It is much better than the speeches at the March Against Mandates.

My, comments posted 1/25/2020:
1:41:50 – 1:50:00 Dr Paul Marik on Remdesivir:
4 million hospitalized 850,000 million died. He says cheap approved drugs could have save 500,000 lives (That is the 1/2 million again that I figured out by a different method.)
He eviscerated NIH/FAUCI.

Fauci Told POTUS Remdesivir was good 10 days in. Researchers Changed the study END POINT to HIDE DEATHS. The OTHER study SHOWING the deaths/toxicity of Remdesivir in Ebola trial was released at 11:00 am JUST before the Afternoon presentation of the corrupted Remdesivir-Covid study that was presented by Fauci to POTUS. (More on this below) He also mentioned U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services gives bonuses to hospital to treat MEDICARE (the old and ‘useless’) patients with this toxic drug.

Steve Kirsch made it clear he thought it was corruption and worse several times.

3:35:00 Dr Peter McCollough talks about vaccines:
Originally there were three different advisory boards during the trials but when it came to the EUA those boards were gotten rid of AND THAT IS WHY CLOT SHOT WAS NOT PULLED IN JANUARY 2021!
Steven Kirsch says right after that there is HARD evidence at least 4 in the CDC/FDA were getting royalties…

4:02:00
The risk increases with each shot. mRna was ENGINEERED to TAMP DOWN RESPONSE to evade ADE BUT it looks like it ALSO tamps down response to viruses, bacteria, and cancer.

The Timeline of FDA Decisions

Heading down the Rabbit Hole on Vaccines that Dr Peter McCollough opened.

Emergency Use Authorization — FDA
As background, this gives the laws, who has the authority and the timeline.

TIME LINE:

October 13, 1976 – New York Times:
Swine Flu Program Is Halted in 9 States As 3 Die After Shots
“After the deaths, swine flu vaccinations were halted throughout Allegheny County, which includes Pittsburgh, and the Federal Center for Disease Control sent doctors to investigate….“

September 1, 2020 CNN
Past vaccine disasters show why rushing a Covid-19 vaccine now would be ‘colossally stupid’
This is actually a very good article on BAD vaccines and what it can do to the public’s trust.

And then we come to the FDA, the meetings and WHO is on the board.

October 22, 2020
Discussing, in general, the development, authorization and/or licensure of vaccines to prevent COVID-19

On October 22, 2020, the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research’s (CBER), Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) will meet in open session, to discuss, in general, the development, authorization and/or licensure of vaccines to prevent COVID-19.
FDA

Those are probably the three boards Dr Peter McCollough talks about. The third was the FDA Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee that hold these meetings. Note they are meeting just before the election and it contains ALL three boards.
….

These meetings are AFTER the STOLEN ELECTION but again all three advisory boards are present.

December 10, 2020
Discussing First Emergency Use Authorization Request for a COVID-19 Vaccine

On December 10, 2020, the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research’s (CBER), Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) will meet in open session to discuss Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19 in individuals 16 years of age and older.
FDA

December 17,2020

Discussing Second Emergency Use Authorization Request for a COVID-19 Vaccine

Agenda
The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. On December 17, 2020, the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research’s (CBER), Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) will meet in open session to discuss Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the Moderna, Inc., COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19 in individuals 18 years and older.
FDA

December 15, 2020 updated December 18

The ACIP met last week to review the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and recommended moving forward with its distribution to anyone over age 16. The FDA issued an EUA on Saturday following the meeting and notified the CDC and Operation Warp Speed to coordinate distribution plans. Initial doses were shipped over the weekend. The first round of deliveries will be completed in all 50 states this week…
Pfizer’s initial distribution of vaccines will be given to 21 million health care workers and 3 million mostly elderly people living in long-term care facilities.
As vaccines are deployed, data on potential or delayed side effects will be collected to answer questions that would have been addressed in long-term trials with millions of participants under nonemergency circumstances….

Biden is installed in the White House and the FDA/CDC does no real investigation. Instead NOTE THE CHANGE IN MEETING MINUTES.

February 26, 2021
Discussing Third Emergency Use Authorization Request for a COVID-19 Vaccine

Agenda
The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. The committee will meet in open session to discuss EUA of the Janssen Biotech Inc. COVID-19 Vaccine for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 in individuals 18 years and older. <== NO ADDITIONAL ADVISORY BOARDS!
Meeting Materials
FDA intends to make background material available to the public no later than 2 business days before the meeting. <== THIS IS THE INFORMATION people are having to SUE FOR!
FDA

Note there are NO MEETINGS TO DISCUSS DEATHS OR ADVERSE REACTIONS! This is the NEXT MEETING:

June 10, 2021

Discussing Pediatric Use of COVID-19 Vaccines

The Committee will meet in open session to discuss, in general, data needed to support authorization and/or licensure of COVID-19 vaccines for use in pediatric populations.
Meeting Materials
FDA intends to make background material available to the public no later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post the background material on its website prior to the meeting….
FDA

Now we come to the meat, exactly who is at those meetings?

The VRBPAC Advisory Committee

The Committee reviews and evaluates data concerning the safety, effectiveness, and appropriate use of vaccines and related biological products which are intended for use in the prevention, treatment, or diagnosis of human diseases, and, as required, any other products for which the Food and Drug Administration has regulatory responsibility. The Committee also considers the quality and relevance of FDA’s research program which provides scientific support for the regulation of these products and makes appropriate recommendations to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs.
The Committee shall consist of a core of 15 voting members including the Chair. Members and the Chair are selected by the Commissioner or designee from among authorities knowledgeable in the fields of immunology, molecular biology, rDNA, virology; bacteriology, epidemiology or biostatistics, vaccine policy, vaccine safety science, federal immunization activities, vaccine development including translational and clinical evaluation programs, allergy, preventive medicine, infectious diseases, pediatrics, microbiology, and biochemistry.
FDA

Applying for Membership on FDA Advisory Committees

As part of the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA’s) ongoing efforts to recruit qualified experts with minimal conflicts of interest who are interested in serving on FDA advisory committees, FDA is requesting nominations for members to serve on its advisory committees….
Conflicts of Interest:
Potential candidates are asked to provide detailed information concerning such matters as financial holdings, employment, and research grants and/or contracts in order to permit evaluation of possible sources of conflict of interest.
FDA

Oooh Boy, they do not sound good. I am digging up and placing here a lot of info on each individual. However I have screened out much much more. What struck me, is out of the sixteen only three do not have major expertise in pediatrics. ALL have ties to NIH/Fauxi or the FDA or the CDC. Some have ties to drug companies and more than one has ties to China. Most are women and three are foreign educated and probably not American born. Out of over 300 million people, you would think they could find Americans.

First a cameo of each of the players, and then if you wish you can look at some of the other information I dug out. If you click on the name it takes you to the information they provided to the FDA, often pages and pages citing the papers they wrote and who they worked for. This is the information I used with some added from other sources.

This says it all:

Plotkin SA, Offit PA, Reiss D.: Important New Resource for Clinicians Giving Expert Witness Testimony on Vaccines. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 37(12), Dec. 2018.

To the Editors:

Vaccination is under attack by individuals who occasionally use the legal system to oppose mandatory vaccination laws and in some cases to obtain exemptions for particular children whose parents are opposed to vaccination. During the legal proceedings, as we have witnessed, experts testifying in favor of vaccination may be challenged with references from journals of doubtful quality that oppose vaccination.
To provide important references that discuss and disprove claims made against vaccines, the Vaccine Education Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia has created a library of references addressing certain safety issues that may be useful as an aid and refresher to clinicians giving expert testimony on the safety of vaccines and to lawyers defending vaccination of children.
The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia legal library may be entered through the web address vaccine.chop.edu/safety-references.
We would be grateful if you could inform your colleagues about the availability of this resource, which should be of great value for experts testifying for vaccination and for clinicians who need to convince parents about vaccine safety. https://journals.lww.com/pidj/Fulltext/2018/12000/Important_New_Resource_for_Clinicians_Giving.42.aspx

On May 15, Texas Monthly reported on their conversation with Dr. Hana El Sahly of Houston’s Baylor College of Medicine. In the coming days, she will begin registering hospitalized participants at Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center and Ben Taub Hospital for the second phase of the National Institutes of Health’s Adaptive COVID-19 Treatment Trial, or ACTT. She’s Baylor’s lead investigator for participation in the program, which in its first phase analyzed a randomized, controlled trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the investigational antiviral remdesivir. Preliminary findings suggested that patients treated with remdesivir recovered faster than patients who received a placebo, which led to the May 1 announcement that remdesivir would be the first medication to receive FDA authorization for emergency use for COVID-19.
“We found that for patients who have COVID-19 pneumonia bad enough to get them to the hospital, treatment with remdesivir expedites the time to recovery by an average of four days per patient,” says El Sahly…

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Recurrence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) positive detection in infected but recovered individuals has been reported. Patients who have recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could profoundly impact the health care system if a subset were to be polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-positive again with reactivated SARS-CoV-2. We sought to define the kinetics and relevance of PCR-positive recurrence during recovery from acute COVID-19 to better understand risks for prolonged infectivity and reinfection.

METHODS: A series of COVID-19 414 patients, at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen, China from January 11 to April 23, 2020. Univariable and multivariable statistical analysis of inpatient data were performed to develop an algorithm to predict patients at risk of recurrence of PCR positivity.
[REMEMBER PCR TESTS RETURN MAJOR FALSE POSITIVES – Reiner Fuellmich say this guy Droston isn’t a Doctor at all, but a bull**** artist. Christian Drosten & the Fraud Behind COVID 19 PCR Testing ]
FINDINGS: 16·7% recovered patients with PCR positive recurring one to three times, despite being in strict quarantine. Younger patients with mild pulmonary respiratory syndrome had higher risk of PCR positivity recurrence. The recurrence prediction model had an area under the ROC curve of 0·786.

INTERPRETATION: This case series provides clinical characteristics of recovered COVID-19 patients with recurrent SARS-CoV-2 positivity, despite strict quarantine, at a 16·7% rate. Use of a recurrence prediction algorithm may identify patients at high risk of recurrent SARS-CoV-2 positivity and help understand reactivation and reinfection possibilities to establish protocols for health policy.

University of Maryland School of Medicine

For more than a year, researchers at the Center for Vaccine Development and Global Health (CVD) at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) have been working tirelessly on COVID-19 research, helping to pave the way for the use of vaccines and therapies that are being administered across the country.
Under the leadership of CVD director Kathleen Neuzil, MD, MPH, FIDSA, the Myron M. Levine, MD, DTPH, Professor in Vaccinology at UMSOM, researchers quickly pivoted decades of vaccine and infectious disease research experience toward combating this deadly virus, which continues to impact millions of people around the world.
Faculty at CVD have served in critical leadership roles in U.S. and international research and policy efforts. For example, Neuzil co-chaired the COVID-19 Prevention Trials Network, a research network established by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases [NIAID Dr. Fauciwas appointed director of NIAID in 1984.] in response to the pandemic. Vaccine research at CVD continues, with an emphasis on reaching the populations most impacted by COVID-19 and testing pediatric vaccines.
CVD experts have launched an expansive grassroots campaign to educate the community and reach those who have been hit the hardest by this terrible virus, including members of the Black and Brown communities, the elderly, and those with underlying health risks.
“Our CVD team has worked tirelessly and meticulously to advance COVID-19 vaccines and to ensure they are reaching the most affected populations,” Neuzil said. “Our work continues as we begin testing vaccines in children and investigate booster vaccines to address the risk of COVID-19 variants.” [Like this Dude is neutral?]

Plotkin SA, Offit PA, Reiss D.: Important New Resource for Clinicians Giving Expert Witness Testimony on Vaccines. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 37(12), Dec. 2018.

To the Editors:

Vaccination is under attack by individuals who occasionally use the legal system to oppose mandatory vaccination laws and in some cases to obtain exemptions for particular children whose parents are opposed to vaccination. During the legal proceedings, as we have witnessed, experts testifying in favor of vaccination may be challenged with references from journals of doubtful quality that oppose vaccination.
To provide important references that discuss and disprove claims made against vaccines, the Vaccine Education Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia has created a library of references addressing certain safety issues that may be useful as an aid and refresher to clinicians giving expert testimony on the safety of vaccines and to lawyers defending vaccination of children.
The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia legal library may be entered through the web address vaccine.chop.edu/safety-references.
We would be grateful if you could inform your colleagues about the availability of this resource, which should be of great value for experts testifying for vaccination and for clinicians who need to convince parents about vaccine safety. https://journals.lww.com/pidj/Fulltext/2018/12000/Important_New_Resource_for_Clinicians_Giving.42.aspx

Adverse reactions to vaccines practice parameter 2012 update

…..Thus although patients with a history of mild reactions to egg ingestion (hives only) can receive their vaccine in a primary care provider’s office, those with a history of more severe reactions (cardiovascular, respiratory, or gastrointestinal symptoms) should receive the influenza vaccine in an allergist’s office. In both cases, personnel to recognize and equipment to treat anaphylaxis need to be immediately available, but the allergist’s office affords additional expertise in this area should it be required…..
…..There has been a great deal of additional information published over the past year demonstrating the safety of influenza vaccination in patients with egg allergy. Health care providers should no longer withhold the vaccine from any patient with egg allergy. In an update to recommendations made in the last year, it is now considered safe for patients even with a history of a severe egg allergy to receive influenza vaccination…..
