Dear KMAG: 20220207 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / Pandemic of the Vaccine – Are mRNA Vaccines Fundamentally Flawed?

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.

Get your rest, Trumpy Bear! You’re going back to the White House!!!

We need to restore sanity in the White House, and it’s time to get Winnie the Pooh OUT.



The Business At Hand

This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But it doesn’t matter, because with God, every day is glorious!

And if you need that in a song…… ONE MORE TIME…..


The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Thus we are assembled here to peacefully address our grievances to whom they may concern, even each other, using both our freedom of speech and of press, as well as our freedom of religion.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

MUSICAL INTERLUDE

For your listening enjoyment, and general encouragement, we continue Wheatie’s tradition of fine music videos, shipped fresh from the seas of information by our intrepid authors.

YouTube is absolutely bombarding me with videos of that Japanese art-pop girl-band “Perfume” that I showed on Friday. The YouTube Wocommie Mensheviks must have some foul intention, so I think I’ll go looking for something else, but just ONE video is a good lead-in, so here you go.

Thankfully, YouTube isn’t just recommending girl groups to me, as long as I get OFF a girl group video page, in which case girl groups are THE ONLY THINGS they recommend.

On a “blank” YouTube page, I also get “epic music” now!

This is a nice one. Don’t mind the “furries” and assorted anime characters.

https://youtu.be/XrisCsNzOlo

This is a long one, too – you can come back for it while reading the features below.

Next, we have one of Wheatie’s favorite artists – Two Steps From Hell – celebrating our lady warriors!

Yes – beware those who would go after our kids…….

They might not be expecting WHO exactly it is, who will DELIVER THE MILLSTONES.

So let’s close out with a REAL girl group – complete with a fiddle!

Now THAT’S what I’m talkin’ about!


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Pandemic of the Vaccine

Are mRNA Vaccines Fundamentally Flawed?

As promised in Friday’s post…..

DEAR KAG: 20220204 – … The End of the mRNA Vaccines …

…..I want to discuss a research paper that was brought to my attention by Gail Combs.

BUT FIRST, let me freshen you up with where things were as of February 3, when Robert Malone had THIS to say about the military data showing that the mandated mRNA jabs were definitively causing harm.

LINK: https://rumble.com/vtztbk-the-covid-vaccine-side-effects-are-worse-than-expected.html

That’s just a quick overview of the problem. Here’s the latest, and in more detail. H/T TradeBait2 for this one. This addresses the jaw-dropping and eye-rolling defense by NIH and their Pentagram buddies, which just dropped military credibility by another factor of two.

Is woke mil causing damage? COMMUNISM always causes damage!

LINK: https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/regarding-the-defense-medical-epidemiological

As Malone points out in the latter article, in a beautifully understated way, the “defenders of the jab” are now offering excuses that strain credibility to the breaking point. It is very easy to see that the other side is committed to any deception, of other or of self, to keep the jab train rolling.

They are NOT willing to honestly look at the striking relative dangers of these BAD VACCINES.

Something is very wrong, we can plainly see, but let’s just play along and pretend that this whole ridiculous scenario still deserves debate.

We have plenty of observations at this point, but the “old theory of harmless jabs” is able to play “what about” and temporarily evade many if not most of those explanations, lacking an obviously more compelling theory of WHY THE JABS CAUSE HARM, which would make “whataboutisms” unpalatable, even to those who want to believe them.

Well, is there such a compelling theory?

We have advanced certain key principles which explain things, and those are important.

We know about the pathogenic spike protein.

We know about vaccine migration and persistence.

But something is different, now.

NOW we have a theory which includes both of those things, PLUS a principle of IMMUNOLOGICAL ERROR.

In my opinion, we’re there.

The Abstract

The abstract is instructive, and if you want to “TL;DR” past the rest of things, at least give that a read. Better yet, stick around for my interpretation of the abstract.

ABSTRACT

The mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines were brought to market in response to the widely perceived public health crises of Covid-19. The utilization of mRNA vaccines in the context of infectious disease had no precedent, but desperate times seemed to call for desperate measures. The mRNA vaccines utilize genetically modified mRNA encoding spike proteins. These alterations hide the mRNA from cellular defenses, promote a longer biological half-life for the proteins, and provoke higher overall spike protein production. However, both experimental and observational evidence reveals a very different immune response to the vaccines compared to the response to infection with SARS-CoV-2. As we will show, the genetic modifications introduced by the vaccine are likely the source of these differential responses. In this paper, we present the evidence that vaccination, unlike natural infection, induces a profound impairment in type I interferon signaling, which has diverse adverse consequences to human health. We explain the mechanism by which immune cells release into the circulation large quantities of exosomes containing spike protein along with critical microRNAs that induce a signaling response in recipient cells at distant sites. We also identify potential profound disturbances in regulatory control of protein synthesis and cancer surveillance. These disturbances are shown to have a potentially direct causal link to neurodegenerative disease, myocarditis, immune thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, increased tumorigenesis, and DNA damage. We show evidence from adverse event reports in the VAERS database supporting our hypothesis. We believe a comprehensive risk/benefit assessment of the mRNA vaccines excludes them as positive contributors to public health, even in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.


What I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE about this abstract, is that it takes some of the most key points of what the Fake News calls “conspiracy theories” and restates them in fact-bolstered scientific jargon that absolutely cannot be disputed. It’s just beautiful.

Because this abstract is important for understanding as we go into the paper, I’m going to take it “line by line” and explain, so that when we get to the paper itself, you can understand what is being talked about and get the gist of it, even if the scientific nuances are not entirely clear to you.

There are TWELVE sentences, each worthy of consideration.

HANG ON FOR A QUICK WARM-UP RIDE.


Analyzing the Abstract

(1) The mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines were brought to market in response to the widely perceived public health crises of Covid-19.

“Widely perceived”.

This is an unarguable fact. It’s a great way to start the argument. State a truth without leaning on the “real crisis” narrative cheese in the center of the trap.

It does NOT say that the mRNA vaccines were brought to market unreasonably, which is open to debate, and which will be a contested question. Remember – many people (including me) HOPED that new technologies – which we were led to believe were needed – would free us from the virus.

Are you starting to see how they USED Trump? In my opinion, we still don’t understand the full extent of the deception and counter-deception. But none of that is said here – it is just ALLOWED under the statement of fact without narrative.

(2) The utilization of mRNA vaccines in the context of infectious disease had no precedent, but desperate times seemed to call for desperate measures.

“Seemed to”.

This is also factual, if we’re honest. The Jab Justifiers will quibble about veterinary vaccines, and experimental vaccines, and all that, as precedents, but those are quibbles. The truth is, you and I never got one of these genetic vaccines before, and that’s because they had never been approved before.

The beauty of this phrasing – “but desperate times seemed to call for desperate measures” – is that it forces us to admit the context of the phony crisis created by the Fake News and Democrats, by only saying “seemed to call for” instead of “called for”.

What the authors are doing here is dropping out the “fake normal” created by the media.

And THAT is an ongoing lesson for science itself to return to control by science and TRUTH.

(3) The mRNA vaccines utilize genetically modified mRNA encoding spike proteins.

This is absolutely true, and absolutely key. The mRNA of the vaccines encodes a FULL “half” of a very particular version of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. However, in order to accomplish several goals, the mRNA which WOULD code for that half of the spike protein is substantially altered in several different ways to make the whole process work.

And that leads to the next sentence.

(4) These alterations hide the mRNA from cellular defenses, promote a longer biological half-life for the proteins, and provoke higher overall spike protein production.

There is a lot of nuance here, so I will take some time to explain the 3 items.

(a) These alterations hide the mRNA from cellular defenses

There are multiple reasons that the “mRNA” of the vaccines is not actually normal mRNA, but a kind of “pseudo” mRNA.

Cells have to be careful not to “execute the instructions” of what is essentially WRONG RNA. Cells are a lot like soldiers who have been trained to NOT carry out unconstitutional orders.

The fact that mRNA vaccines and related forms of mRNA-based gene therapy actually work AROUND cellular defenses is a hint RIGHT THERE that they might do something bad. Our bodies are designed to FIGHT OFF foreign mRNA.

Be careful how you interpret what I’m saying there. It’s not an indictment of the mRNA method per se, because MANY if not ALL drugs have to “work around cellular and bodily defenses”. That is a huge part of the science of drug delivery.

HOWEVER, it is always cautionary to admit THAT one is working around defenses, because this will inform one as to the RISKS which are being taken BY working around those defenses.

What if you aren’t actually working around the risks?

So, one truth is that the mRNA has certain bases changed to avoid “tipping off” those defenses. It’s a SNEAKY and LUCKY break that we actually CAN work around those defenses.

But are we doing so CLEANLY and to good outcome?

(b) promote a longer biological half-life for the proteins

This is a HUGE double-edged sword.

Remember – the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein CHANGES SHAPE as it breaks into the cell. When it’s all done, it looks like a different protein – even to antibodies.

The drug designers have (literally, but synthetically) mutated the original reported Wuhan spike protein sequence. The primary reason to do this, is to make the protein “LOCK IN” the original, highly infectious, three-dimensional shape of the “fresh” protein, so that antibodies will form PROPERLY against that, instead of forming against depleted, spent, “used” spike protein. This reduces the chances of ADE (antibody-dependent disease enhancement), which comes from “inappropriate antibodies” that evolved to the WRONG TARGET.

The problem with stabilizing the highly pathogenic spike protein for triggering more desirable antibody formation, is that it also stabilizes the highly pathogenic spike protein for pathogenesis, too.

“WHOOPS!”

So – spike-protein-based “long haul” symptoms from the vaccine can be very long – even compared to long haul from the disease. The synthetic spike protein is really good at sticking around in its mutated, long-lasting, highly pathogenic form.

And THAT might not be a good thing.

Ask this question – why doesn’t the VIRUS do that? Maybe a more stable protein is not only bad for the virus, but also bad for the host, and THAT is in turn bad for the virus AGAIN.

Nature is smart – especially when it cuts a deal with multiple organisms to INCREASE LIFE.

(c) provoke higher overall spike protein production

This is a DIRECT call-out of a problem that will almost certainly lead to arguments with “peer reviewers” who want to defend the vaccines. Note that the wording very intentionally does not say “These alterations are intended to…..[three things]” – it simply says “These alterations….. [three things].”

The alterations are INTENDED to provoke higher overall spike protein antibody production. But the fact is, unless the increase in antibodies comes from better and stronger adjuvants, which act as immunity multipliers, then it’s coming from higher (or otherwise more antigenic and pathogenic) overall spike protein production.

Thus, peer reviewers who want to cover up spike protein malfeasance will likely insist on dragging the wording back to being about the antibodies. This follows the lead of Tony Fauci and his “antibody hypnosis” act, designed to keep attention OFF all of the things that are WRONG with the vaccines.

As you can see, we’re only 4 sentences in, and there is a lot of “battle prep” already going on.

(5) However, both experimental and observational evidence reveals a very different immune response to the vaccines compared to the response to infection with SARS-CoV-2.

This is a very general but very powerful FACTUAL statement, which DEFIES the Fauci / Fake News narrative – a narrative which can’t even bring itself to ADMIT that disease-conferred immunity is a reality.

This is a point about which – if you have read even SOME of the COVID-19 scientific literature – there is literally no debate. Only in the Fake News media and on controlled social media is this twisted. Scientists now marvel ALL THE TIME at the differences between vaccine-conferred immunity and disease-conferred immunity.

And, almost ALWAYS, practically speaking (but ignoring any risks of acquiring immunity), disease-conferred immunity is superior.

You will note that Fauci NEVER talks about this stuff.

But there is more – much more. ANY adverse effects which happen due to the vaccines and not the disease, or happen MORE with the vaccines, rightly count as differences.

The paper is not saying this out loud – but you can understand that it is implied.

This right here – the point about a difference between vaccine immunity and disease immunity – is the HAMMER of the gun going back and making a “clicking” noise.

(6) As we will show, the genetic modifications introduced by the vaccine are likely the source of these differential responses.

THIS HERE IS THE BIGGIE.

There are SO MANY potential implications here, I don’t want to steal their thunder from the analysis of the paper.

However, without knowing ANYTHING FURTHER, this is a profoundly common-sense scientific statement. It is simply saying that different molecules from the virus RNA may lead to different outcomes. That’s almost a no-brainer.

This could happen in multiple different ways.

  • differences in how the “changed mRNA” is handled by the body
  • differences in how it is interpreted
  • differences in the protein product

All of this makes wonderful sense.

(7) In this paper, we present the evidence that vaccination, unlike natural infection, induces a profound impairment in type I interferon signaling, which has diverse adverse consequences to human health.

Oh, wait – THIS is the biggie.

This is saying that there is an important cellular communication screw-up with mRNA vaccination – a screw-up which does not occur with natural infection. Stated in reverse, there IS an important cellular communication channel opened during natural infection, which is MISSED by the mRNA vaccines.

IN OTHER WORDS, A PROGRAMMING ERROR.

This is all too believable to me, because I’ve seen this before. And NOT just when I “learned to code”.

This is LITERALLY a sibling programming error of what happens when too many vaccines are given at the same time, and interferon signals STEP ON EACH OTHER.

Now the Fake News media “fact checkers” absolutely will not admit that there is a problem with multiple simultaneous vaccines, but once the standard mechanism of vaccine-acquired immunity was explained to me, it became OBVIOUS AS HELL that signal interference was behind the observed but somewhat unpredictable problems with tight vaccine schedules.

You are allowed to have a different scientific opinion from these biased and forked-tongued “fact checkers” with agenda.

But let’s save the details for later.

For now, just remember that humans are evolutionarily adapted for disease, not hacky pseudo-mRNA vaccines. Our PROGRAMMING MODEL – our DESIGN – our API – is different from what the hackers thought they could get away with, and they got caught.

(8) We explain the mechanism by which immune cells release into the circulation large quantities of exosomes containing spike protein along with critical microRNAs that induce a signaling response in recipient cells at distant sites.

More specifics.

This is fascinating, because AND LOGIC is now telling me that it’s not just the vaccine migrating, but spike protein as well.

And THAT explains a LOT.

Do you see how everything is tying together nicely around the pathogenic spike protein that is NOT being degraded soon enough or fast enough, like the VIRUS DOES FOR US?

Think about our little human biome friends next time, science. They may have a BETTER PLAN.

(9) We also identify potential profound disturbances in regulatory control of protein synthesis and cancer surveillance.

OK, this is bad stuff. But it’s also bad stuff that is right up the alley of FAKE SCIENCE to now “discover” and get big bucks to study. It’s DETAILS that cannot be dismissed.

This is the GRENADE thrown into the narrative machine gun bunker with half a second left on the fuse.

KABOOM.

This is where every “me too!” funding whore is going to jump on the bandwagon with justification.

(10) These disturbances are shown to have a potentially direct causal link to neurodegenerative disease, myocarditis, immune thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, increased tumorigenesis, and DNA damage.

Oh, wait! Isn’t this the stuff that Robert Malone warned us about?

Isn’t this the stuff that Ryan Cole spotted?

Isn’t this the stuff that FAKE NEWS ignored and “debunked”, but is now appearing in every possible mainstream source of data?

Common sense is going to win here.

INVESTORS had better TAKE NOTE. The landscape is going to change, IMO.

(11) We show evidence from adverse event reports in the VAERS database supporting our hypothesis.

The beauty of VAERS is that it’s flawed, but we know HOW it’s flawed.

Thus, if you see something that can only be MAGNIFIED by correcting for the known flaws, then you have something you can use.

Just stroll past those Fake News fact checkers and Fake Social Media “con-TROLLS” who spew their talking point about “VAERS IS A FLAWED SYSTEM”. SORRY. Not good enough, trolls.

Everything is a flawed system. Knowing the DIRECTION of the flaws is what turns all systems into useful logical tools.

We will use common sense here, long after these people who deny it are OUT OF POWER.

(12) We believe a comprehensive risk/benefit assessment of the mRNA vaccines excludes them as positive contributors to public health, even in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This is where they land when all is said and done.

They’re saying that they believe the risks outweigh the benefits with THESE vaccines.

This does NOT say that vaccination per se is a bad strategy for COVID-19.

It says that mRNA vaccination as it currently exists is not a good strategy for COVID-19.

It doesn’t say that viral vector cDNA, “full” spike protein subunit antigen, or RBD subunit antigen vaccines are doubtful in any way. They may be, but the authors don’t say that (although some of the specifics DO have implications for the other vaccines).

The authors only say that THESE particular, current, mRNA vaccines are “not positive contributors to public health”.

And you can do the math from there.

Can the current mRNA vaccines be fixed?

Good question. This paper is likely a roadmap to any such fixes. But until then…..

Mandating these vaccines is WRONG, if not INSANE.


Analyzing the Paper

Now we get to the meat of the paper.

I am just going to drop my impressions, placing them in context as needed. On some of these, I blab on and on. On others, I just make a short point. I do a lot of quoting where the authors say it nicely. This is very seat-of-the-pants.

Introduction

The FIRST paragraph is a generous summary of the basics of vaccination, FULLY in compliance with the CDC definitions. Please take note of that. There is no quibbling about the mRNA vaccines not being vaccines.

The SECOND paragraph summarizes and exemplifies the presence in the literature of a viewpoint that the mRNA vaccines are very similar to natural immunity. There is a point made that is basically my contention of Fauci’s “antibody hypnosis”, but it is phrased very politiely.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) makes the case based upon antibody titers generated by prior infection vs. vaccination, in addition to production of memory B cells, to argue that the immune response to vaccination is analogous to the response to natural infection [4]. It is this similarity in the humoral immune response to vaccination vs natural infection, paired with both trial and observational data demonstrating reduced risk of infection following vaccination, that stands as the justification for the mass vaccination campaign.

The THIRD paragraph is long, but absolutely key.

It is the summary of the guts of the paper.

You will note that the authors are pointing out EXISTING MAINSTREAM SCIENCE which is contradicting the media-trumpeted, but “CDC-silent” narrative that vaccination is superior to “natural immunity”, by pointing out (without saying it bluntly) that it’s not even AS GOOD as disease-conferred immunity, because known “good” responses to the natural antigen are completely missing.

And worse than that, the mRNA vaccines seem to do WRONG THINGS to the immune system as well.

In this paper we explore the scientific literature suggesting that vaccination with an mRNA vaccine initiates a set of biological events that are not only different from that induced by vaccination but are in several ways demonstrably counterproductive to both short- and long-term immune competence and normal cellular function. These vaccinations have now been shown to downregulate critical pathways related to cancer surveillance, infection control, and cellular homeostasis. They introduce into the body highly modified genetic material. A medRxiv preprint has revealed a remarkable difference between the characteristics of the immune response to an infection with SARS-CoV-2 as compared with the immune response to an mRNA vaccine against COVID-19 [5]. Differential gene expression analysis of peripheral dendritic cells revealed a dramatic upregulation of both type I and type II interferons (IFNs) in COVID-19 patients, but not in vaccinees. One remarkable observation they made was that there was an expansion of circulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in COVID-19 patients, but this expansion was notably absent following vaccination. A striking expansion in circulating plasmablasts observed in COVID-19 patients was also not seen in the vaccinees. All of these observations are consistent with the idea that the vaccines actively suppress type I IFN signaling, as we will discuss below. In this paper we will be focusing extensively, though not exclusively,on vaccination-induced type I IFN suppression and the myriad downstream effects this has on the related signaling cascade.

Again, I point out that this is being pulled out of the “mainstream” literature.

Does this immune suppression that researchers found remind you of anything?

LINK: https://www.bitchute.com/video/NmhFesU2aPue/

Note that this is on BitChute because YouTube deleted it as “misinformation”.

If you’re thinking “Wow, the media and social media has really screwed up science!”, well, all I can say is “They won’t be able to walk the streets.”

The FOURTH paragraph then begins dropping bombs on the Pfizer clinical trial shenanigans, which basically covered up the placebo group to obfuscate vaccine problems.

The message is roughly “Because Pfizer covered things up by vaccinating their placebo group, as well as other tricks, we were forced to look at VAERS and the scientific literature to find out what the vaccines are doing – AND BOY, DID WE FIND A TON OF PROBLEMS.”

But done much more politely.

The next two paragraphs are a WITHERING ATTACK on the vaccines, simply using the scientific literature. OMG – the spatter on the walls – there are quite a few easy targets that the Fake News Media has been protecting by ignoring, but it’s very hard to “memory hole” the scientific literature to those who can “pay to play”, so the authors just mention a string of scientific findings that Fauci hoped the public would never see.

Thus, the FIFTH paragraph is a summary of VACCINE FAILURE, with references.

The SIXTH paragraph then brings up the wonderful idea that if benefits are as low as we now understand them to be, maybe RISKS need a closer look.

You may want to read the whole introduction, because that is the last easily readable section of the paper for a while.

NOW it gets really technical.

Interferons: An Overview with Attention to Cancer Surveillance

This section is extremely complex and hard to read, even if you’re familiar with most or all of the various biochemical and biological acronyms that are thrown into the melange.

It starts off with a review of what is known about INTERFERONS (IFNs), as well as substances which regulate them, known as INTERFERON REGULATING FACTORS (IRFs).

This is what you need to know:

Type I IFNs play a powerful role in the immune response to multiple stressors. In fact, they have enjoyed clinical therapeutic value as a treatment option for a variety of diseases and conditions, including viral infections, solid tumors, myeloproliferative disorders, hematopoietic neoplasms and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis [16].

As a group, IFNs play exceedingly complicated and pleiotropic roles that are coordinated and regulated through the activity of the family of IFN regulatory factors, or IRFs [17]. IRF9 is most directly involved in anti-viral as well as anti-tumor immunity and genetic regulation [18-20].

Basically, interferons are critical players in the CLEANUP OF GENETIC BAD GUYS CAUSING TROUBLE. Those genetic bad guys can be EXTERNAL WRONG-GENES (viruses) or they can be ROGUE CELLS (cancer and the like).

This section then summarizes the complex interactions and feedback loops which characterize anything involving interferons, but particularly related to their anti-cancer role. It is made exceedingly clear that improper interferon levels and disruptions of the complex interferon systems are known to lead very directly to clinical appearance of cancers of various kinds.

Near the end, COVID-19 is brought into the mix. A recent Chinese paper is cited, the work having shown interference with IRF signaling by a non-mRNA, inactivated virus, COVID-19 vaccine. The changes are EXPECTED to reduce resistance to cancers, and the mechanisms are discussed in detail. ELEGANTLY, those same mechanisms are found in Alzheimer’s patients, and appear related to development of dementia symptoms that sound remarkably like COVID brain fog.

Finally, a documented case of a rare lymphoma being accelerated by the Pfizer vaccine is described, and a summary statement is given:

Given the universally recognized importance of optimally functioning BRCA1/2 for cancer prevention and given the central role of the TRAIL signal transduction pathway for additional cancer surveillance, the suppression of IRF7 and IRF9 through vaccination and subsequent spike protein production is extremely concerning for long-term cancer control in injected populations.

Considerations in the Design of mRNA Vaccines

This section basically describes the long list of HACKS – many of them very ELEGANT HACKS – that were needed to get all the way from Robert Malone’s initial discovery which enabled mRNA gene therapy, to where mRNA vaccines are today.

The implications of all these hacks for relevant IMMUNOLOGICAL and GENETIC biochemistry, including INTERFERONS and CANCER, are described.

This section SETS UP the long list of concerns which are going to necessarily follow.

Quite a bit of attention is paid to the components of the lipid nanoparticles, their roles, and their potential risks and side-effects.

This section is fairly readable, and if you’re curious about the various hacks, and particularly the purpose and mechanism of the lipid nanoparticles, then you may enjoy reading past the jargon.

GC enrichment and potential G4 (pG4) structures in vaccine mRNAs

This is a difficult section to understand, if you’re not familiar with DNA and RNA “beyond the double helix”. It’s a bit like Morse code. Everybody knows what Morse code is, and maybe how to do an “SOS”, but not many people remember Morse code well enough to compose and send long signals at will, let alone send a telegram. OTOH, if you’re in genetic medicine or biology, you may be familiar with more than just 4 bases and the double helix.

The bottom line is that, among the various hacks that have gone into the mRNA vaccines, some of them are basically “genetic tricks” to increase production of spike protein. The PROBLEM with that, is that the FINAL implications of some of these tricks are not fully known.

Because there is redundancy in the genetic language, and the efficiency of different spellings is not the same (nite vs. night, thru vs. through, etc.), certain things can be re-encoded using the most efficient letters to create MOAR SPIKE PROTEIN. And MOAR is always BETTER. RIIIIIIIIGHT?

Well, it turns out that spellings have implications for how mRNA behaves. How mRNA behaves has implications for things like CANCER.

Going back to the title of this section, “G” and “C” are the efficient bases that are switched to, to make proteins with higher efficiency. The problem THERE is that “G” can do something every interesting – it can bind with itself in a square, to form a quadruple helix called a “G quadruplex”, which is abbreviated G4. See the image above for cross-sections of such a structure, at the point of binding.

There are ways to predict if a G quadruplex will form – these cases are called “pG4” for “potential G quadruplex”.

Midway through the section, this quote:

Summarizing the topic to this point, the enrichment of GC content in vaccine mRNA will inevitably lead to an increase in the pG4 content of the vaccines. This, in turn, will lead to dysregulation of the G4-RNA-protein binding system and a wide range of potential disease-associated cellular pathologies including suppression of innate immunity, neurodegeneration, and malignant transformation [83].

There are further implications. The more mRNA can form these self-shielding quadruplexes, the less that “micro RNAs” – miRNAs – can bind to the mRNA and control the expression. And THAT leads to another cascade of potentially unintended consequences.

The multitude of pG4s in the mRNA of the vaccine would predictably act as decoys, distracting miRNAs from their normal function in regulating human protein expression. The increase in G4 targets due to the vaccine would decrease the availability of miRNAs to target human-expressed G4s for regulation of gene expression. This can result in downregulation of miRNA expression which is implicated in cardiovascular pathology [96], onset of neurodegeneration [97], and/or cancer progression [98].

Type I IFNs and COVID-19

This is a very interesting section on the relationship of interferons to COVID-19. It appears that:

  • lower levels of interferons lead to more severe COVID-19 outcomes
  • IFNs can be used for treatment early, but make things worse if given late
  • interferons seem to prevent infection by COVID-19
  • this would explain enhanced susceptibility to COVID-19 after vaccination
  • COVID patients with antibodies against interferons are common in severe cases

Interferons are clearly key, and look to be one of the most significant differences between the disease and the vaccine.

Are the methylation strategies for cellular housekeeping generally omitted by vaccine mRNAs?

This is a rhetorical question about one of the hacks used by the mRNA vaccines.

To put it a bit too simply, the synthetic mRNA is “capped” both to evade detection AND to generate more spike protein, and most likely without regard for downstream unintended consequences, due to the fact that capping is normally supposed to be both a signaling and a regulating mechanism. The “hack” abuses this feature to make more spike protein.

Rather than simply making an accusation, the question is asked, whether the hack accounted for some of the more likely consequences.

E.g., …..

Furthermore, this also means that eIF4E, which is a powerful oncogene regulator and cell proliferation modulator, will sustain its activities by this competition, for an unnaturally prolonged period of time, trying to counterbalance the competition between robustly-capped mRNAs in vaccines and IRES-containing mRNAs[113,65]. This type of condition results in dysregulation of co-transcriptional m6A mRNA modifications and seriously links to molecular progressions of various cancers [114], as well as creating predisposing conditions for subsequent viral infections [113].

My money is on the idea that nobody in the management chain at Pfizer or Moderna gave a flying F, because Fauci and Walensky are all about the antibodies. This is a CLASSIC downstream effect of antibody hypnosis.

Exosomes and MicroRNAs

This is an interesting grab-bag of stuff, and it’s not that hard to follow, for the most part, so you may want to read it.

Exosomes are basically little bubbles of cell that break off and carry crap, a lot like “virus-like particles” or even “lipid nanoparticles”. It turns out that much of the spike protein which is produced in vaccine-infected cells LEAVES THE SCENE inside exosomes, or studded into their surface. This was in fact discovered by a group in India.

Also, under conditions of overwhelming production of spike protein due to SARS-CoV-2 molecular vaccination, it would of course be expected that a significant proportion of over-abundant intra-cellular spikeproteins would also be exported via exosome cargoes [128]. A seminal paper by a research team in India investigated the role of exosomes in the cellular response to internally synthesized SARS-CoV-2 spike protein [50]. They wrote in the abstract:“We propose that SARS-CoV-2 gene product, Spike, is able to modify the host exosomal cargo, which gets transported to distant uninfected tissues and organs and can initiate a catastrophic immune cascade within Central Nervous System (CNS).”

Things get even worse. It turns out that these exosomes also carry micro-RNAs that turn off interferons in the distant places to which they carry the spike protein.

Thus, the available evidence strongly suggests that endogenously produced spike protein creates a different microRNA profile than does natural infection with SARS-CoV-2, and those differences entail a potentially wide range of deleterious effects.

A central point of our analysis below is the important distinction between the impact of vaccination versus natural infection on type I IFN. While vaccination actively suppresses its production, natural infection promotes type I IFN production very early in the disease cycle. Those with preexisting conditions often exhibit impaired type I IFN signaling, which leads to more severe, critical, and even fatal COVID-19. If the impairment induced by the vaccine is maintained as antibody levels wane over time, this could lead to a situation where the vaccine causes a more severe disease expression than would have been the case in the absence of the vaccine.

Another expected consequence of suppressing type I IFN would be reactivation of preexisting, chronic viral infections, as described in the next section.

SO – this would explain “vaccine-induced disease enhancement” – not antibody-dependent (ADE), but rather interferon-dependent (IDE). And in this case, it could be significantly different diseases that are being enhanced, because of the generality of the interferon network.

Speaking of which…..

Reactivation of Varicella-zoster

Fully consistent with the proposed vaccine-induced negative effects on interferon signaling, would be the significant number of cases of shingles appearing post-vaccination with the mRNA vaccines.

There is also a documented case of viral hepatitis flaring up because of the vaccine.

An additional case of viral reactivation is noteworthy as well. It involved an 82-year-old woman who had acquired a hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection in 2007. A strong increase in HCV load occurred a few days after vaccination with an mRNA Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, along with an appearance of jaundice. She died three weeks after vaccination from liver failure [142].

Personally, I have no desire to get shingles again.

Impaired DNA Repair and Adaptive Immunity

As stated – more examples from the literature.

We have to speed up here. This is a long paper.

Immune Thrombocytopenia

This is your “clot shot” mechanism, explained.

This quote is interesting.

It has been shown that the mRNA vaccines elicit primarily an immunoglobulin G (IgG) immune response, with lesser amounts of IgA induced [155], and even less IgM production [156]. The amount of IgG antibodies produced is comparable to the response seen in severe cases of COVID-19. It is IgG antibodies in complex with heparin that induce HIT. One can hypothesize that IgG complexed with the spike protein and PF4 is the complex that induces VITT in response to mRNA vaccines. It has in fact been shown experimentally that the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein binds to PF4 [157].

PPAR-α, Sulfatide and Liver Disease

Two paragraphs are worthy of your attention.

As we have already stated, an experiment by Mishra and Banerjea (2021) demonstrated that the spike protein induces the release of exosomes containing microRNAs that specifically interfere with IRF9 synthesis[50]. In this section we will show that one of the consequences of suppression of IRF9 would be reduced synthesis of sulfatide in the liver, mediated by the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPAR-α).

Multiple case reports in the research literature describe liver damage following mRNA vaccines [165-167]. A plausible factor leading to these outcomes is the suppression of PPAR-α through downregulation of IRF9,and subsequently decreased sulfatide synthesis in the liver.

As you can see, there is a prediction here, and plenty of room to investigate.

Guillain Barre Syndrome and Other Neurological Conditions

This is worth reading. There is a laundry list of neurological conditions clearly attributed to the vaccine, and a clear mechanism by which they happen.

Bell’s Palsy

A known problem which appeared during the clinical trials of the mRNA vaccines.

Placebo 1, Treatment 7. Do the math.

Myocarditis

Signals and mechanisms are discussed. Particularly compelling is the proposed role of exosomes in carrying the toxic spike to cardiac tissue.

My money is still on migrating vaccine, but AND LOGIC will do for now.

Considerations Regarding the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)

The underreporting of the system is discussed, with some doubt about the commonly cited figure of “100X” underreporting, as well as mention of a more sophisticated figure of 31X obtained by Rose.

VAERS Signal for Immune Suppression, Thrombocytopenia and Neurodegeneration

A comparison of the data from COVID vaccines to ALL OTHER VACCINES COMBINED is made, and the results are impressive.

Many different things are listed. It’s worth looking at.

VAERS Signal for Cancer

After detailing the numbers for cancer (nice table), where the mRNA vaccines have HUGE numbers compared to all other vaccines combined, this statement:

This cannot be explained by reference to a disproportionately large number of people receiving an mRNA vaccination in the past year compared to all other vaccinations. The total number of people receiving a non-COVID-19 vaccination is unknown, but over the 31 years history of reports VAERS contains it is unquestionably many orders of magnitude larger than the number receiving an mRNA vaccination in the past year. Overall, in the above table, twice as many cancer reports to VAERS are related to a COVID-19 vaccination compared to those related to all other vaccines. That, in our opinion, constitutes a signal in urgent need of investigation.

To me, this is enough to say that the mRNA vaccines are related to cancer. Period.

Discussion

This is worth reading:

There has been an unwavering message about the safety and efficacy of mRNA vaccinations against SARS-CoV-2 from the public health apparatus in the US and around the globe. The efficacy is increasingly in doubt, as shown in a recent letter to the Lancet Regional Health by G¨unter Kampf [215]. Kampf provided data showing that the vaccinated are now as likely as the unvaccinated to spread disease. He concluded:“It appears to be grossly negligent to ignore the vaccinated population as a possible and relevant source of transmission when deciding about public health control measures.”

In this paper we call attention to three very important aspects of the safety profile of these vaccinations. First is the extensively documented subversion of innate immunity, primarily via suppression of IFN-α and its associated signaling cascade. This suppression will have a wide range of consequences, not the least of which include the reactivation of latent viral infections and the reduced ability to effectively combat future infections. Second is the dysregulation of the system for both preventing and detecting genetically driven malignant transformation within cells and the consequent potential for vaccination to promote those transformations. Third, mRNA vaccination potentially disrupts intracellular communication carried out by exosomes, and induces cells taking up spike mRNA to produce high levels of spike-carrying exosomes, with potentially serious inflammatory consequences. Should any of these potentials be fully realized, the impact on billions of people around the world could be enormous and could contribute to both the short-term and long-term disease burden our health care system faces.

Given the current rapidly expanding awareness of the multiple roles of G4s in regulation of mRNA translation and clearance through stress granules, the increase in pG4s due to enrichment of GC content as a consequence of codon optimization has unknown but likely far-reaching consequences. Specific analytical evaluation of the safety of these constructs in vaccines is urgently needed, including mass spectrometry for identification of cryptic expression and immunoprecipitation studies to evaluate the potential for disturbance of or interference with the essential activities of RNA and DNA binding proteins.

This is what I was talking about at the beginning. There is enough here for an enormous amount of productive research on the downside of these vaccines. It’s EASY RESULTS. Maybe not easy grant money, but plenty of easy CLOUT when it’s all over.

This does NOT go back in the toothpaste tube.

Conclusions

Presented in whole:

It is imperative that worldwide administration of the mRNA vaccinations be stopped immediately until further studies are conducted to determine the extent of the potential pathological consequences outlined in this paper. It is not possible for these vaccinations to be considered part of a public health campaign without a detailed analysis of the human impact of the potential collateral damage. It is also imperative that VAERS and other monitoring system be optimized to detect signals related to the health consequences of mRNA vaccination we have outlined. We believe the upgraded VAERS monitoring system described in the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Inc. study, but unfortunately not supported by the CDC, would be a valuable start in this regard [208].

In the end, we are not exaggerating to say that billions of lives are at stake. We call on the public health institutions to demonstrate, with evidence, why the issues discussed in this paper are not relevant to public health, or to acknowledge that they are and to act accordingly. Until our public health institutions do what is right in this regard, we encourage all individuals to make their own health care decisions with this information as a contributing factor in those decisions.

That’s where I’m at. Do not take the clot shot. Do not give it to your kids. Tell people how you honestly feel.

I am OK with people having the freedom to take a bad vaccine, but I personally think that coercing anybody in the slightest to take it, is a CRIME.

If you’re scared of getting or giving COVID, there are far better ways to deal with it, than a bad vaccine that does a lot of damage.

Can the mRNA Vaccines Be Fixed?

That’s MY question.

I suspect that they CAN be fixed, but not for at least several years – maybe 5-10, if we’re lucky.

Until then, they should be taken off the market, IMO.

Hopefully antigen vaccines will do better, but if they don’t, we can fall back to treatment and “real” immunity.

This one is also labeled “Moroccan Spice”, with a reference URL. I am informed by an expert that this genre of art is something known as “purse porn”.

This is from the early days, when the “talent” was just getting started, and it shows.

Here’s where the “spice” started flowing to the cabal coffers, and the recruits were now famous for being famous. Different fan-exciting material was possible…..

I was going to queue up some of their reunion material, but I absolutely cannot take any more of it.

SO ENJOY.

OK, I cannot leave you with that earworm, so I’m going to perform a really neat trick.

The following performance is by a similar “girl group” in Japan, doing a number called “Spice“. Because it’s designed to infect the brains of Japanese and not Westerners, it’s essentially white noise MK to gai-jin, and will erase the Spice Girls stuff.

WE HOPE.

You can turn on English captions to see what they’re saying.

Because this group “Perfume” rides on a more techno/electronica carrier wave, and comes in at a more “artistic” level than the Spice Girls, it actually gets MUCH more respect than the Spice Girls, in both the East and the West. Many people regard it as techno art-pop rather than J-pop. But don’t kid yourself. Down deep, it’s still a “girl band”. These ladies are huge cultural celebrities in Japan, just like the Spice Girls remain in England, even disbanded.

And thus we return to reality.

The End of the mRNA Vaccines

This topic right here is just a WARM-UP for my Monday post, which will explain WHY these particular mRNA vaccines are OVER. GONE. KAPUT. DONE.

You want to know why Joe Rogan / Spotify happened?

Pfizer-CNN-DNC-BlackRock-[CB]-Mr.Global can’t attack Drs. Malone and McCullough directly, at this CRITICAL MOMENT, so they FAKED IT, and attacked Joe Rogan to indirectly “prove” that Malone and McCullough are providing “misinformation”.

That is how desperate they are.

Sorry.

As China said to the Biden administration, “You are dealing from a position of weakness.”

The TRUTH is a SOLID FORTRESS.

“They” are in so much trouble.

And Malone and McCullough are in the CATBIRD SEAT.

There are tens of billions – hundreds of billions – maybe trillions of dollars on the line, and those dollars are not just on a rickety foundation – they are on QUICKSAND.

(H/T FG&C)

You can understand the panic. And it will only get worse.

First, I want you to watch this video, and understand that every word you hear is 100 times truer than even those people realized when they said those things.

Now I want you to understand WHY.

Hat tip to Gail Combs for cluing me in to this very recent paper, which I expect to come under merciless attack, but it won’t do any good.

This paper may NEVER reach or pass “peer review”, but it doesn’t matter. Even if it NEVER passes peer review, the payload has been delivered.

The paper has DETONATED in information space.

More “cautious” scientists will BET THEIR CAREERS on the truth therein, and “discover” everything discussed here, but in slower, politically correct, and damage-controlling ways.

Limited damage control remains possible if “they” are extremely lucky and drop mandates world-wide NOW. But as long as their side keeps forcing mandates, the WOODEN STAKE OF TRUTH will be driven into the VAMPIRE HEARTS OF PFIZER, MODERNA, AND ALL WHO BACKED THE CLOT SHOT.

GOVERNMENTS are going to FALL.

I think that SOMEBODY knew this paper was coming.

Once you see WHY the mRNA vaccines are fundamentally flawed, you can’t unsee it.

ABSTRACT

The mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines were brought to market in response to the widely perceived public health crises of Covid-19. The utilization of mRNA vaccines in the context of infectious disease had no precedent, but desperate times seemed to call for desperate measures. The mRNA vaccines utilize genetically modified mRNA encoding spike proteins. These alterations hide the mRNA from cellular defenses, promote a longer biological half-life for the proteins, and provoke higher overall spike protein production. However, both experimental and observational evidence reveals a very different immune response to the vaccines compared to the response to infection with SARS-CoV-2. As we will show, the genetic modifications introduced by the vaccine are likely the source of these differential responses. In this paper, we present the evidence that vaccination, unlike natural infection, induces a profound impairment in type I interferon signaling, which has diverse adverse consequences to human health. We explain the mechanism by which immune cells release into the circulation large quantities of exosomes containing spike protein along with critical microRNAs that induce a signaling response in recipient cells at distant sites. We also identify potential profound disturbances in regulatory control of protein synthesis and cancer surveillance. These disturbances are shown to have a potentially direct causal link to neurodegenerative disease, myocarditis, immune thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, increased tumorigenesis, and DNA damage. We show evidence from adverse event reports in the VAERS database supporting our hypothesis. We believe a comprehensive risk/benefit assessment of the mRNA vaccines excludes them as positive contributors to public health, even in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.

I will go through this in more detail on Monday.

I was only part-way through the body of the paper, when I realized that if even a fraction of it is correct, the mRNA vaccines are as good as over.

Worse than that, other non-mRNA vaccines are likely subject to many of the same concerns.

It may very well be that vaccination is a poor strategy for this virus, SARS-CoV-2.

BUT ONE THING IS CERTAIN.

Now that there is a clean, elegant, and intellectually appealing explanation of the adversity of the mRNA clot shot, which happens to align perfectly with common sense, mandates are murder.

Do not back down. Do not give up. We are on the right side of this.

I will explain.

SOON.


Bad Medicine as a Weapon of War

If you ever find yourself weakening on NOT GETTING THE CLOT SHOT – (and I’ve actually run into some of these failure-of-will cases in real life, so it’s not impossible) – try to remember just ONE of the items discussed below.

Don’t let Chinazia and the Globonazis inject you with their Slow-Motion Koolaid designed to assassinate America.

What follows are several items (or groups of items), many of which have been sitting around in my tabs, which have been bothering me. I have been TRYING to fit them into a pure and simple negligence scheme, and I simply can’t.

There is a highly destructive and very intentional aspect to all that has happened, that defies letting us categorize “Obamacare and what came after it” as mere stupidity.

Hat tips to RAC, Aubergine and Linda, for bringing the full extent of this one to my attention.

Further hat tips to those who brought all the other “tabbed” items above.

To me, this is only explained by what amounts to a secret “war” against the United States. Not everybody fighting on “their” side knows everything. In fact, almost all of them know nothing. But I think that Tony Fauci, Hillary Clinton, and a few others either know the entirety of the plot, or are following orders without question.

Their mission is based on ideas that America is bad and responsible for every bad thing, and that America and Americans need to be disempowered and punished for it.

Thus, like the general idea that Obama wasn’t as much “for Russia” or “for China” as he was “against America”, we can see that the modern Democrat party is now an embodiment of skepticism about, if not antipathy toward, America and Americans themselves.

Here’s the video and the URL, which long ago disappeared from YouTube.

LINK: https://www.bitchute.com/video/XqreFRHoXTFX/

In my opinion, this all goes back to the Soviet-supported MAOIST Weather Underground types of the late 60s and early 70s, who were actively planning a revolution in which 25 million Americans would need to be killed. This is around the same time that Klaus Schwab got his start. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH.

There are basically two sides – individual freedom and state control. In the past we’ve tended to have wars which were not cleanly on that boundary, such as Hitler vs. Stalin, but I think THIS ONE is fairly clean. “They” try to make “free forces” fight each other, which is very smart, but I think we’re wising up.

They HAD to have known that, without getting the guns, they could never defeat us ON AMERICAN SOIL.

It HAD to be gradual. It HAD to be Sun Tzu. It HAD to be carried out by Americans, on American soil.

I am really thinking now that SOMEBODY on the radical left realized that they could not set up CAMPS unless we were fully under the grip of socialism, like China or North Korea, BUT that until such a time, there WERE ways to trick us into allowing ourselves to be killed.

Disease used as a weapon of war can be efficient, but it’s obvious. But using the medicine allegedly meant to TREAT a disease as a weapon of war is NOT obvious.

Turning our own medical system against us is a cruel and cynical method of war, but I have to admit that it’s rather brilliant.

It’s a sobering thought.

Something is very wrong here. Stay frosty. I think that they’re trying to get as much as they can WITHOUT WAR, before they actually go TO WAR.

And speaking of WAR……


Mayor Gramsci III’s War On Freedom of Movement

The son of the torch-bearer of Antonin Gramsci, a founding father of cultural Marxism, is not exactly undamaged goods. As you can see above, Pothole Pete was (assuming this bit of news is not completely phony) a PRETTY SICK KID.

People like that are PSYCHOPATHS. Pet murderers rarely turn into saints. There is usually something VERY wrong with them – something that does NOT go away without a lot of GOD in the process.

Personally, I don’t care to push a campaign against “Mayor Pete” over his alleged juvenile criminality. There is a reason that juvenile records are sealed. Many if not most people “get serious” at the point of LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY. They grow up. Bad kids can turn out good. However, I still think Kid Pete’s history is relevant to Secretary Pete’s personality.

We’ve gotta KEEP OUR EYE on this boy.

I suspect that many people are glad “Possible Pet-Killer Pete” is “only” Secretary of Transportation. Still, he could do a LOT of damage there. For example, that office could be a real problem for an American truckers’ strike.

Trust me, Pete Buttigieg is not here to fix the roads. He is a typical communist control freak who is going to take our freedoms away if we don’t take him seriously.

And taking Pothole Pete seriously is hard. Because on the surface, the guy is SUCH a DOUFUS.

He wouldn’t hurt a fly – right?

So when this infuriating poser bicyclist idiot does something like this…..

LINK: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/goal-zero-traffic-deaths-buttigieg-announces-new-federal-strategy-combat-traffic-fatalities-video/

…..one is tempted to view this as merely stupid and impossible.

DO NOT make that mistake.

“Zero traffic deaths” is not only a fundamentally and intentionally MISDIRECTED GOAL that has a “feel-good” appearance of self-justification – which leverages our wish to “do the impossible” – it is CODE for all of the following:

  • personal transportation for the elite only
  • Mercedes for the elite – Chinese Trabants for luckier serfs
  • where you live becomes determined by your job
  • Soviet-level, corrupt, inefficient public transit for plebes
  • no freedom of movement – internal passporting
  • omnipresent cameras and surveillance, just like China
  • TSA internal control, “papers, please”, and all the rest

This is how these ASSHOES bring CHINA to AMERICA.

Zero traffic deaths is just like MOAR ANTIBODIES.

A PHONY and MISLEADING GOAL.

Now, before we get to the fact that we simply have to stop this crazy commie twerp, you need to know him better.

A great AUDIO will help.

Notice how PRESCIENT this talk is, right at the beginning.

You will ALSO love the end, when you realize that TRUMP is headed straight into confrontation with this joker.

LINK: https://sovereignnations.com/2021/10/22/buttigieg-and-gramsci-public-occurrences-ep-39/

I invite you to resolve to NEVER accept what Pet-Killer Pete has in store for us.

NEVER. EVER. Accept it.

All that is left is HOW you choose to resist this guy.


Have a great weekend, and don’t forget to…..


ENJOY THE SHOW.

THE SALT MUST FLOW

Dear KMAG: 20220131 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / The Mouse that Roared – Lithuania vs. the ChiNazi Empire / Paul Hong Kong vs. ChiNazi Fake Suicides

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.

Get your rest, Trumpy Bear! You’re going back to the White House!!!



The Business At Hand

This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we are AWAKENING GREATLY!


The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Seriously, this stuff is in the Bible. Just follow the “wise gals”.

She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our enemies, as instructed by YOU KNOW WHO.

Starting from something still left in my tabs.

Earworm. Can’t quit this one. So “Train”.

BUT WAIT – there’s more.

Imagine this song being done by Taylor Swift BEFORE she became fully “woke”.

Yes, only 4 years of Obama-era cultural Marxism had not yet turned her.

Check it out.

Apparently her “arm lyrics” are a thing (that doesn’t leave a permanent scar).

From there, I was led to this enjoyable bit of fluff.

Perfect for a Monday!

Hey, I get it. Why so serious? Sometimes it’s good to just dance!

Have a great week!

Now….. BUCKLE UP. The WOOF is on a mission.


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces, acting though TREASONOUS Democrat Communists.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

The Mouse That ROARED: Lithuania vs. The CHINAZI EMPIRE

https://thehill.com/opinion/international/591219-democracies-must-stand-with-lithuania-against-chinas-aggression?rl=1

This is actually something that the ChiNazis are desperately afraid of – a SMALL NATION that stands up to them.

Big nations are COWARDS regarding the ChiNazis.

I spent four decades watching the utter COWARDICE of American academia, industry, and government, in their teeth-chattering, self-deluded refusal to deal with ChiNazi theft, subversion, blackmail, military attack on civilians, and every other horror of Chinese communism.

If Lithuania stands against the CHINAZI MENACE, then I stand with them.

FUCK CHINA JOE and his EVIL FRIENDS – COWARDS who LIE about standing up to China – as THEY THEMSELVES become more like China every day.


Paul Hong Kong – THE Source for ChiNazi Crimes

Paul Hong Kong is the guy you want to follow to get all the stories that the ChiNazis and their friends in Washington try to suppress. He’s on Twitter, and he finds and retweets EVERYTHING about the ChiNazis. You can tell that his stats are WILDLY suppressed.

Paul has a separate website which deals with a truly horrifying subject – the police cover-up of people murdered by the ChiNazis in Hong Kong.

Most of these murders are “solved” by the police as suicides or accidents. The PEOPLE of Hong Kong know that they’re not suicides – they’re REGIME MURDERS – but the police know better than to investigate.

Utterly horrifying. WITH PICTURES.

HONGKONG SUSPICIOUS DEATHS

One of the favorite methods of the ChiNazis is apparently to simply throw people out of buildings. Cheaper than bullets and easier to explain.

Do we want this shit coming to America and the rest of the world?

No. The evil CCP must be destroyed.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day:

usufruct

yoo͞′zə-frŭkt″, -sə-

noun

  1. The right to the use and profits of something belonging to another.
  2. In law, the right of enjoying all the advantages derivable from the use of something which belongs to another so far as is compatible with the substance of the thing not being destroyed or injured.
  3. The right of using and enjoying the profits of an estate or other thing belonging to another, without impairing the substance.

Wikipedia:

Usufruct (/ˈjuːzjuːfrʌkt/)[1] is a limited real right (or in rem right) found in civil-law and mixed jurisdictions that unites the two property interests of usus and fructus:

Usus (use) is the right to use or enjoy a thing possessed, directly and without altering it.
Fructus (fruit, in a figurative sense) is the right to derive profit from a thing possessed: for instance, by selling crops, leasing immovables or annexed movables, taxing for entry, and so on.
A usufruct is either granted in severalty or held in common ownership, as long as the property is not damaged or destroyed. The third civilian property interest is abusus (literally abuse), the right to alienate the thing possessed, either by consuming or destroying it (e.g., for profit), or by transferring it to someone else (e.g., sale, exchange, gift). Someone enjoying all three rights has full ownership.

Used in a sentence:

The remaining legal question delves into arcane jargon of whether the Garden’s lease is a “usufruct,” where the City retains all ownership rights and the tenant thus can’t ban guns, or an “estate for years,” where the Garden has some ownership rights as well and thus can ban guns. (From: Court decision on guns in leased parkland could be bigger than ‘constitutional carry’)

Used in a picture:

Used in a video:

Used in Reality

If you do business with the ChiComs – if you even TOUCH Chinese money – you might as well have given everything to the ChiComs, with them leaving you mere usufruct as a form of deceitful cover. The lesson of all those who have lost their businesses to the Chinese is simple – never touch Chinese money. It’s poison. And it’s POISON the moment you start doing business with them – NOT just by the time you figure out that you’ve been SCAMMED.

DEAR KAG: 20220128 – The Pub is OPEN / Wolf’s Big Howl on January Sixth / Defeat The Mandates Picture Gallery / Why Isn’t Vaccine Localization a Thing?

The Pub is OPEN!

While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we will continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.

Tonight’s drink special is not ethanol, but rather a different alcohol – epinephrine – a.k.a. – ADRENALINE.

Stay tuned! We’ll explain later!

And while that’s kind of interesting, it’s not about the kind of FREEDOM that goes with the ART on the wall tonight.

SO – we add some EPIC FREEDOM MOOD MUSIC for your GALLERY TOUR tonight.

That’s more like it.

And now, the rules of the pub.


HOUSE RULES

God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.

Now, back to business.

And now for our feature presentation…..


Why Isn’t Vaccine Localization a Thing?

One of the thing that tells me science is really out of whack right now, is the fact that scientists are discouraged from doing simple, plain-Jane things that would actually make vaccines safer for the general public, but are instead encouraged to go off in other, riskier, sexier, more profitable directions, while protected by a kind of “media umbrella of propaganda” which justifies, and rationalizes, but does not convince the HONEST skeptic and investigator.

In a sense, we still have the same sort of “patent medicine killers” of the late 19th century, with their poisonous potions – we’ve just changed WHO it is who is allowed to kill people and make money with bad medicines.

The fact that the very first COVID vaccines were of a risky, barely understood, and rather experimental type (mRNA or viral vector, i.e. genetic, full spike, in humans), while EASIER, FASTER, CHEAPER, SAFER, and much more familiar and better-understood vaccine types (protein or glycoprotein antigen, subunit) were IGNORED and SLOW-WALKED until later – well, it would have boggled my mind a long time ago, but no longer.

In my opinion, the “science”, if you can call it that, was guided by FAUCI PATENTS, rather than by what would have been best for patients AND for vaccine science.

The point about damage to vaccine science ITSELF is a point that Robert Malone often makes, which is critical. The people behind the bad, biased, self-interested, money-making vaccine choices, didn’t just screw THE PEOPLE – they screwed up the SCIENCE.

Let me be blunt. When people LIKE ME attack Tony Fauci, we’re not attacking science.

We’re attacking ABUSE OF SCIENCE by an OUT-OF-CONTROL BUREAUCRAT, aided by MERCENARY GLOBAL CORPORATIONS.

Tony Fauci is biased and corrupted by many sick and damaging compromises and ties to the industry he is SUPPOSED to be countering when necessary on America’s behalf – NOT coddling at every personally beneficial turn.

And all of this WRONGNESS was created under the cover of Francis Collins, who was used as a very phony TOTEM of “ethics” and “morality”. The man was pimped to the masses as a great Christian, as if that meant he WOULD and COULD do something about bureaucratic ethics and morality, while those very virtues he was meant to represent but not interfere with, were UNDONE by a series of corrupt administrations.

There is a LOT that is wrong with government regulation of science and medicine right now, and we need to talk about it.


Tonight, I’d like to talk about just ONE point of vaccine science which is weirdly out of whack, and protected ONLY by propaganda – and that is vaccine localization.

That means MAKING THE VACCINE STAY PUT WHERE YOU INJECT IT.

Obviously this is not working. OK? I’ll just be blunt.

One of the points frequently made against actual science on social media, mostly by CCP propagandists, IMO, is that vaccines simply do not leave the injection site, and thus all these systemic and distant effects which people allege to have been caused by vaccines, could not possibly have been caused by the vaccines. I saw this canard far more often than I should have, because people, generally, are not prepared to debate it.

Even when people just argue the evidence back and forth, because the reality is fuzzy and moves around between “localizes” and “migrates”, the argument itself is a fantastic deflection by the “protectors of vaccines”. Instead of talking about the very real problems caused by even LIMITED MIGRATION of vaccines, we’re one step removed from the problems.

These sorts of arguments – that the spike protein vaccines could NOT be migrating from the injection site – were completely undone by the Pfizer data obtained from Japan.

Yes, it was animals, and yes, it was perhaps at an over-sized dose, but the numbers themselves were SO substantial that these kinds of factors basically “factor out”. There is NO DOUBT from this data that there is a RISK of migration of “vaccine which infects cells and cranks out [highly pathogenic] spike protein which is HOPEFULLY dealt with cleanly by the immune system”.

The propaganda that vaccines don’t migrate was CLEARLY violated by the case at hand. That propaganda disappeared rather quickly, although I still hear it from nurses, and just bite my tongue.

Further – shockingly – the idea that the lipid nanoparticles containing the vaccine mRNA (basically what are called “virus-like particles” when injected as part of wasp venom) could actually have time to persist as part of skin lipids and BE SHED – well, it’s rather obvious from the data that this is a very real possibility.

The SKIN is an organ just like everything else. Everything else meaning all the OTHER organs that were getting the vaccine mixed into THEIR lipids in shocking amounts for a very long period of time.

Suddenly the CRAZIEST of the conspiracy theories about the mRNA vaccines was LITERALLY – and I mean LITERALLY – biophysically possible.

I had previously come up with a marginally feasible idea that maybe the spike protein itself was not just toxic, but HORMONE-LEVEL ACTIVE, to explain what people were reporting. But with the Pfizer data, I didn’t need any of that. The VACCINE ITSELF was ready to be shed.

And Pfizer hid this. Yeah. I can kinda see why.

So – if I may – let’s just set aside this foolishness that vaccines don’t migrate, and never have systemic or distant effects, because they do. It’s VARIABLE, but it’s REAL.

So why don’t people DO anything about this?

Why not do things that would absolutely ensure that vaccines CANNOT leave the injection site?

I can imagine a lot of things that MIGHT do this, but had never heard about any adjuvants or additives or vaccine designs that could effectively localize vaccines to arm or shoulder muscle, and simply make sure they didn’t migrate to even the slightest degree.

Solve THAT problem and pericarditis is GONE – RIGHT?

So why not do it? And why not BRAG about it if you CAN do it? Why not say how it’s done?

CRICKETS.

FAST FORWARD to a recent bit of knowledge that I happened upon IN REAL LIFE.

I noticed that I was somewhat jittery after having some minor dental work done. I was quite numb for the work, but later, after leaving the dentist’s office, with the numbness now faded, I noticed that I was shaky, edgy, and “wired”. That went away over the rest of the day. I just assumed that it was a side effect of the anesthetic.

I mentioned this to an anesthesiologist and a nurse, who both explained to me that it was NOT due to the anesthetic, but rather to epinephrine, which is sometimes ADDED to an injectable anesthetic in order to LOCALIZE it.

They explained to me that by epinephrine constricting the blood vessels in the region where the anesthetic is injected, the body removes less of the anesthetic by drawing it away in the blood stream – so the anesthetic STAYS at the site of the injection, giving a longer duration of anesthesia.

Sure enough, when I looked this up online, I found out it is quite real.

https://journals.lww.com/anesthesia-analgesia/Fulltext/1998/05000/The_Effect_of_Varied_Doses_of_Epinephrine_on.21.aspx

So I immediately thought to myself – why not do the same thing with vaccines?

Why not try to localize them with something like epinephrine?

But when I looked THAT up, the only results that I got, were for use of epinephrine (you know, as in the EPI PEN) in treating anaphylactic reactions TO vaccines. I probably didn’t look hard enough, but I’m not trying to get a patent or anything like that.

So who knows? It may be that adding epinephrine to vaccines could actually be GOOD in terms of reducing the severity of anaphylactic reactions – in addition to localizing the vaccine.

However, the possible technical feasibility of doing something isn’t my point.

My main point is simply ADMITTING THERE IS A PROBLEM.

If you could simply make these DAMN mRNA vaccines STAY where you put them, and if they didn’t crank out a bunch of bad stuff into the blood stream, then perhaps the only long-term risk would be something like cancer AT THE SITE OF INJECTION.

However, let’s be real. Nobody even TALKS about the problem. The media just DENIES IT.

In my opinion, “they” aren’t addressing this problem, because it gets on the way of “their” real purpose or purposes.

Vaccine localization is the last thing that these people wanted to “solve” here.

The people who CONTROL science and medicine don’t have to tell us about their entire agenda. They only have to tell us things that are somewhat plausible and rational.

In my opinion, mandatory vaccination is a PLATFORM for SOCIALISTS to do whatever they want to whomever they want. It gives them cart blanche to change society without accountability. That is the big picture, and has been their objective for well over 100 years.

Look at what communists are doing to Uighurs in Communist China RIGHT NOW.

Changing PEOPLE directly changes society FASTER.

  • They want to keep you alive, they keep you alive.
  • They want to sterilize you, they sterilize you.
  • They want to experiment on you, they experiment on you.
  • They want to kill you, they kill you.

Doing things which do not contribute to, or which would actually IMPEDE their “unholy grail” goal of direct control over humans, is simply NOT going to happen, if THEY can help it.

But that doesn’t mean that WE can’t give them a BAD HAIR DAY, EVERY SINGLE DAY, and fight for WHAT IS RIGHT in science and medicine.

  • defederalization of science
  • destalinization of medicine (de-obamatization in practice)
  • force ethics and transparency where socialists don’t want them
  • bring anti-deception tools and language INTO science itself
  • chase politics out of science, acting in both of them
  • increase citizen science literacy outside compromised institutions
  • work toward a BOR-compatible medical freedom amendment
  • many more

SO – just remember this.

Science and medicine won’t change when THEY do something about it.

Science and medicine will change when WE do something about it.

All of these RINOs have let us down – not by fake plots like the “Trump let us down” crap that was mouthed by “Buffalo Boy” / “QAnon Shaman” on the orders of Deep State and Woke Military, but by actually acting like DEMOCRATS and letting us down.

There will be more. This is just the beginning.

SUNDANCE has a GREAT POST about how we need to NOT just say “AWW, SHUCKS – cOvID is over – let’s just forgive the tyrants” – NO. There must be an ANSWERING for what was done.

Professional Leftists Begin Trying to Retreat from the Consequences of Their COVID Nonsense

January 22, 2022 | sundance | 406 Comments

If you see RINOs backing off and backing down, you know why. They know that they kowtowed and genuflected to the WRONG TYRANNY.

Let’s start off with the biggest loser in the bunch.


Doug Ducey – Arizona Senate

Horrible RINO Doug Ducey, governor of Arizona, who allowed the UniParty to steal the election from Trump, is no friend of the people. Term-limited to two terms, he can’t remain governor – but that doesn’t stop the UniParty from finding a new place to park his RINO azz.

The wicked OLD CROW Shanghai Mitch is pushing the election theft-protecting RAT Doug Ducey to run for the Senate, to help in Mitch’s CHINO-RINO plans.

So far, “The Deuce” hasn’t signed on, but keep an eye on this dastardly plot.

RINOs. They fight extinction….. HARD!


Greg Abbott – Texas Governor

Remember when it was Abbott vs. DeSantis for the title of “Most Trumpian governor”?

Well, look at who COVID and THE BORDER destroyed.

THE PEOPLE have a way of seeing ALL TALK and NO ACTION.

https://www.newsweek.com/greg-abbott-danger-losing-gop-governor-primary-texas-poll-allen-west-1668992

DeSantis clearly took the lead.

Not sure what happened to Abbott, but he has NOT been stepping up strongly.

So who has? STAY TUNED.


Mike DeWine – Ohio Governor

Mike DeWine is a nice guy, but there are millions of nice guys who are not equipped to be a wartime governor – much less fight a war against tyranny – against sinister forces – both foreign and domestic.

The enemy was quickly identified as not being COVID per se, but rather a coalition of self-interested VULTURES. Radical leftists, resurgent Soviets, European globalists, DC bureaucrats, psychotic elites, woke corporations, Big Pharma, virtue-signaling science and professional organizations, rogue intelligence agencies, the DNC, and Chinese hegemonists – and that’s before we start at the bottom with Mask Karens and vaxx pushers.

A conspiracy of instincts and interests – of people who have designs to plunder this great nation, and have already staked far too big a claim on Ohio.

MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS, FORMING A MASS OF NPCs.

DeWine made a HUGE mistake with his mask mandates and Amy Acton-inspired COVID buffoonery. Republicans tried to warn him as it became clear that we were being snookered by the leftists and globalists, but DeWine failed to listen.

Eventually people figured it out. Mike DeWine is John Kasich’s third term, just like Biden is Obama’s third term.

Do we REALLY want a fourth Kasich term?

UniParty Republicans have been good for business when the business was selling out America, but now that America’s gas tank is almost EMPTY, maybe it’s time for people who actually understand that profiting on a CHINA FUND isn’t actually WINNING.

Why DeWine is so beholden to the Dems and China is beyond me, but it may have something to do with Columbus, Ohio being a deep blue zone that runs a bright red state. I think the statehouse is basically OWNED by the surrounding turf, and the Democrats communists are able to control or at least influence the perceptions of everybody in Ohio politics.

In any case, DeWine is a RISK to Ohio. The left manipulates him with impunity. He’s a nice guy – he’s an easy candidate to sell to DEMOCRATS – but he’s also UTTERLY CONTROLLABLE by the DNC.

There ARE other choices.

And not just in MASKS.


Who Will Send the RINOs and DEMs Packing?

Looking at the three RINOs above, and in Ducey’s case, the office that he’s leaving, let’s see who is “chasing out the RINOs”.

Arizona – Kari Lake

https://ijr.com/patriotic-crowd-goes-wild-kari-lake-lock-fauci/

Technically, it was TERM LIMITS that sent Dupey Ducey out of office, to be swooned by the OLD CROW himself, Mitch McConnell, to run for one of Arizona’s two Senate seats. There are several Republicans running for governor now. ALL of them appear solid on the issues, but the one that MAGA loves, and the left fears the most, is clearly Kari Lake.

The EVIL BITCH Katie Hobbs is running for Arizona governor on the Dem ticket because her “life out of jail” depends on it. More wicked Maricopa County cheating may keep Hobbs out of jail, too – but if anybody can beat her, it’s Kari Lake, so Hobbs is ALREADY gearing up against Lake on a “Kari is QAnon” platform.

Trust me – when Kari Lake is done with cheatin’ Katie Hobbs, Katie’s gonna look like the CAT LADY she is.

Don’t let Arizona become the next California or New Mexico. Kari Lake is the FIREWALL.


Texas – Allen West

https://texaspolitics.com/2022/01/14/allen-west-surges-past-abbott-in-latest-gop-poll/

My, how Allen West has outlived the UniParty machine that always painted HIM as the whack-a-doodle – only for that machine to go along with the utter INSANITY we see coming out of Washington now.

(Hat Tip sundance)

The people who went along with all this crap need to be REMOVED.

End of story.

Yeah, Abbott ain’t Muriel Bowser or Kate Brown, but he’s no DeSantis. And speaking of which…..


Ohio – Jim Renacci or Joe Blystone

Ohio Republicans have a problem. They have three main choices for governor.

“Milquetoast” Mike DeWine, who will INEVITABLY order fresh mandates – to the ability that he can – if the Democrats and China release another virus.

“Constitutional Conservative” Joe Blystone – a “guilty pleasure” candidate who the MSM absolutely loves to inflate, then harass and scandalize, because he’s an easy target, with an utterly chaotic “Farmer Joe” campaign.

“Ohio’s DeSantis” Jim Renacci – who the media and UniParty absolutely DO NOT want anybody to realize is an option, and having been rather successful in that regard.

In my opinion, Blystone is the most like a Trump voter, but Renacci is the most like Trump. Do the math.

The media is clearly elevating Blystone to try to STOP a Renacci challenge, and keep DeWine in office, nice and controlled.

Renacci has LITERALLY promised to govern like Florida’s Ron DeSantis. Renacci also picked a very interesting Lieutenant Governor candidate to run with him – somebody very skilled with MSM-independent media messaging – an Ohio-based Christian film producer named Joe Knopp.

You may remember one of his films.

Knopp did a documentary on Trump, seen through the women around him, and in doing so, was spurred to enter politics.

Here is a great article on Knopp and how he became Renacci’s co-candidate.

LINK: https://spectrumnews1.com/oh/columbus/news/2021/12/02/jim-renacci-tabs-movie-produce-joe-knopp-as-running-mate

Ultimately, in the general election, I will support ANY of these three against WHOEVER the Demon Dems decide to run. But for the primary, I think the smart money is on Renacci. He’s always been in the Ohio Republican machine, but he’s “new machine” – Trump era.

Blystone? In my opinion, his winning the primary leads by any of several paths to a succession of Democrat governors. And that is the LEAST of the reasons why the Democrats are behind him.

Trump was a finely tuned weapon that we aimed at the mess in Washington, and hit a bullseye.

Renacci would be the same for Ohio.

Blystone is a stinkbomb that we would enjoy throwing into the Statehouse – for ONE TERM MAX, and more likely ZERO TERMS.

Renacci has experience – as a mayor, as a Congressman, and as a businessman. I think he’s the guy.

And he can always appoint Blystone as Secretary of Cleaning Out RINOs.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day:

stalking horse

noun

A horse used as cover by a hunter stalking game

A candidate put forward instead of any of several potentially successful candidates in order to initiate a leadership debate, gauge feelings, divide opposition, etc.

A stalking horse is a figure used to test a concept or mount a challenge on behalf of an anonymous third party. If the idea proves viable or popular, the anonymous figure can then declare its interest and advance the concept with little risk of failure. If the concept fails, the anonymous party will not be tainted by association with the failed concept and can either drop the idea completely or bide its time and wait until a better moment for launching an attack.

Used in a sentence:

In American politics, George W. Romney believed that Nelson Rockefeller had used him as a stalking horse in the 1968 Republican Party presidential primaries by promising support, then not providing it and hinting at his own entry into the campaign.

2022·01·22 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread


SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom

I normally save this for near the end, but…basically…up your shit-kicking barbarian asses. Yes, barbarian! It took a bunch of sailors in Western Asia to invent a real alphabet instead of badly drawn cartoons to write with. So much for your “civilization.”

Yeah, the WORLD noticed you had to borrow the Latin alphabet to make Pinyin. Like with every other idea you had to steal from us “Foreign Devils” since you rammed your heads up your asses five centuries ago, you sure managed to bastardize it badly in the process.

Have you stopped eating bats yet? Are you shit-kickers still sleeping with farm animals?

Or maybe even just had the slightest inkling of treating lives as something you don’t just casually dispose of?

中国是个混蛋 !!!
Zhōngguò shì gè hùndàn !!!
China is asshoe !!!

And here’s my response to barbarian “asshoes” like you:

OK, with that rant out of my system…

Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit

…we can move on to the next one.

Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.

Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.

Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!

It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.

In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.

Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.

The So-Called Vax

I think I can actually make sense of the Vaxers now. (And I’m going to call it the “treatment” from here forward.)

Everything they do makes sense (from their point of view, that is), if you assume that they believe the purpose of the treatment is to prevent the recipient from infecting others. It’s not to protect the recipient from others, it’s to protect others from the recipient.

(Now it is true that an actual vax helps slow the spread of the disease. I know you can sometimes transmit a disease if vaxed, but it’s more difficult if you don’t actually don’t catch it. But I am not talking about the side-benefit of a real vax; I’m talking about what they think of THIS treatment, where, apparently the only benefit it confers is to prevent people from transmitting it.)

Under those circumstances, they can consider you selfish for not wanting to protect others. After all you refuse to take a treatment that will prevent others from catching the disease from you. And, indeed, they do consider you “selfish” and not in the positive way that Ayn Rand used the term.

But it’s yet another one of those things where ONE non-compliant individual ruins it for everyone else–at least, that’s what they think it is. ONE untreated person could infect the entire human race, because they aren’t protected from him.

Never mind that this is not what a vaccine is supposed to be doing. If you assume that the motherf*cking toilet licker in front of you shrieking about how you’re Satan Incarnate for not being jabbed believes that the sole purpose of the treatment is to prevent the recipient from spreading the disease–not to prevent the recipient from catching it–suddenly his behavior makes sense, at least based on what he believes (and you can’t expect anyone to behave in accordance with things they don’t believe).

So perhaps the best way to argue with these people is to simply point out calmly that a vaccine (their word) is supposed to protect the recipient from those with the disease [which of course we say] not prevent them from giving it to other people [identify their false premise and face it head on] they might actually feel like they’re being argued with, rather than talked past.

If you don’t confront their actual premise, arguing with them can accomplish nothing.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Kamala Harris has a new nickname since she finally went west from DC to El Paso Texas: Westward Hoe.

Mozart

Sedate. The adagio (2nd movement) from his clarinet concerto.

And a bit…less sedate. Last movement of his Symphony #41 which is the last one he wrote.

(Don’t be fooled by the fact that there’s a Symphony #42, or 43, or…well up to #55 at least…as I explained last time the numbering isn’t really chronological. To the best of my knowledge he’s got at least 51 symphonies under his belt (though some are disputed), so if we were ever to renumber them, this one would be #51. But we never will renumber them; that would cause confusion for centuries.)

By the way, that sucker ends in a five part fugue. Not easy to write!

JWST Update

The James Webb Space Telescope has succesfully deployed all 18 pieces of the primary mirror and the secondary mirror from their “stowed for launch” positions. That involved moving them half an inch (12.5mm) from where they were before, using the same actuators that will be used over the next three months for the next major phase of the mission.

I was surprised to see that NASA had slipped the L2 insertion burn a day. I didn’t think that was possible; at some point the spacecraft has reached where it needs to be to do this, and you don’t want to miss the window. Obviously, I don’t know all the details…because despite being originally scheduled for Sunday, it’s now slated for Monday.

https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/01/21/webbs-journey-to-l2-is-nearly-complete/

More about the orbit.

https://www.webb.nasa.gov/content/about/orbit.html

At some point after that, I believe, they will begin the process of lining up the mirror segments with each other. They need to mimic a single parabolic mirror, and that will require them all to be re-positioned with accuracies of less than ten billionths of a meter. This will be done with the same motors that took the mirrors out of “stowed” position. That motion was a million times larger, yet the same actuators were responsible. It’s as if you had a combined brain surgery scalpel/chain saw for cutting things around the house. The mirror alignment is expected to take three months, and the impression I’ve received is that they will be done one at a time and checked with algorithms that have benefited people with certain visual impairments here on Earth (including one that I have). I have no idea how much, if any, NASA will be updating people during the process.

Meanwhile the sensors that these mirrors gather the light for, continue to cool and will also be brought on line and calibrated. We’re still looking at June for the first meaningful pictures, which will be false-color infrared pictures.

The First Exoplanets Not Orbiting Star Corpses

One Last Detection Method

There’s one more, rather rare, method of detecting extrasolar planets (or “Exoplanets” for short) and the surprising thing about this method is it actually has happened.

Occasionally we will see one (fairly close) star pass directly in front of a more distant star; the closer star will appear to be moving faster (more likely) than the distant one.

When that happens, the gravity of the nearer star bends some of the starlight from the more distant star, and that star is “gravitationally lensed.” More light from that star reaches us than would otherwise be the case and it gets brighter as the other star crosses in front of it.

This has actually been observed to happen. Furthermore, sometimes there’s a secondary “spike” in the brightness of the distant star, which we believe is due to gravitational lensing around a planet of the nearby star. It’s a lot weaker and of shorter duration than the main event, but it can be detected.

It seems incredibly unlikely that this should ever happen, but it has. A small (but significant) number of exoplanets have been detected this way. However, we’ll almost certainly never be able to confirm the planet by the same means, because the star would have to pass directly in front of yet another star for this to happen.

But that’s getting ahead of our story for tonight.

Patience Rewarded

Geoffrey WIlliam Marcy (b. 1954) was, in the early 1990s, chasing rainbows. He was having trouble with his main line of research, and was beginning to think he was a failure as an astrophysicist. So he decided to flame out with a bang…and search for exoplanets.

Remember that back then, this was something no one wanted to be caught dead trying to do; it smacked too much of looking for E.T.

That didn’t stop Marcy; he began trying to use the Doppler Shift method I described last week. And I should have been more careful describing it; it turns out it’s called the “Radial Velocity Method.”

He looked for years, and found nothing. His instruments weren’t sensitive enough to detect a small (Earth size, say, or smaller) planet, and there simply weren’t any indications of large planets, either. He had spent years looking for a signal of a large planet, in a large (and therefore long-period) orbit. This is what everyone expected. But, nothing.

But then in December, 1995, Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz, Swiss astronomers, reported having found an exoplanet in orbit around a star named 51 Pegasi.

“51 Pegasi” is a “Flamsteed designation” according to a system invented by John Flamsteed in the early 1700s; he essentially numbered the stars in each constellation, and 51 Pegasi is a star in the constellation Pegasus. Almost every naked-eye-visible star visible from England got a Flamsteed number. This includes stars that already had a Bayer designation (constellation name plus a Greek letter). For instance Betelgeuse, Alpha Orinonis, is also 58 Orionis according to the Flamsteed designation.

The upshot is that 51 Pegasi is a faint star, but is visible to the naked eye (barely) on a very dark night far away from city lights. In fact, it’s of almost exactly the same spectral class as our Sun; it’s a G2IV whereas our Sun is a G2V. It’s believed to be a bit older (6.1-8.1 billion years versus 4.6 billion) than our Sun.

But it’s a nice, ordinary star, maybe getting a bit long in the tooth, but a nice, ordinary star. Not some pulsar corpse of a star, made of solid neutronium, spewing massive amounts of radiation everywhere like a firehose as it spins like a top hundreds of times a second!

The planet was immediately designated 51 Pegasi b (according to that convention I complained about two weeks ago), and it fell to Marcy and his team mates to confirm it.

Which they almost immediately did.

It didn’t take long to do so. They were able to watch it orbit 51 Pegasi a couple of times, because this planet (originally dubbed Bellerophon, after the mythic rider of Pegasus, but now called Dimidium), has a 4.23 day year. So they could look for a Doppler “wobble” with that period, and they found it, immediately.This is a damned short year. Mercury is the closest planet to our Sun, and its year is 88 days.

In other words, no one expected such a short year, from any sort of planet.

But that wasn’t the biggest surprise. The planet’s mass is 0.46 Jupiter masses; in other words, it’s more massive than Saturn. It’s a gas giant!

OK, now if you remember back two weeks, I described what we expected a “typical” planetary system to look like…based on our own. And the gas giants should be far away from their stars. Not just because that’s what we see here, but because there’s simply no way they could form any closer to a star; it’s simply too hot for the ices, and the hydrogen and helium, to hang around long enough for the rocky core of such a planet to be able to capture them. Out at 5 AU, it is possible–that’s Jupiter’s distance–but at 0.05 AU, where 51 Pegasi b is, no way!

That sound you’re imagining is the sound of bullshit meters pegging in the skulls of every astronomer and astrophysicist in the world.

But here was a discovery, from Switzerland, confirmed by a team in the United States, of something that shouldn’t exist.

Well, OK…maybe the planet formed farther out and somehow migrated inwards? Seems unlikely, but it could happen. Current thinking is that much of the time, planet formation is a very chaotic process and planets, as they form, fling other planets clear out of the planetary system, to wander forever in interstellar space as “rogue” planets. Or planets can be flung into their stars. Or into some close orbit.

But it gets better: Marcy and his team may not have bagged the first planet orbiting a normal star, but they had been gathering spectroscopic data from hundreds of stars for years. When they went back and looked–this time for very short period signals instead of ones with periods of several years–they found a lot of exoplanets like 51 Pegasi b.

Within two months, Marcy’s team was able to announce planets orbiting 47 Ursae Majoris (the Big Bear) and 70 Virginis (Virgo).

47 Ursae Majoris b is at least a bit more normal. The parent star is again, very much like our Sun. The planet orbits in just under 3 years at a distance of 2.1 AU. But it is at least 2.5 times as massive as Jupiter. (Remember that masses found by the Doppler method are minimums; if the orbit is tilted with respect to our line of sight, then some of the velocity of the star induced by the planet is transverse, rather than radial and the Doppler effect is smaller than it “should” be…meaning the planet is more massive than the signal would indicate.)

That’s still a bit close to its star for a gas giant. And yes, as mentioned, it’s a bigger planet than Jupiter. How big can a planet get? Once it gets to be about 10-14 Jupiter masses, it’s considered a “brown dwarf” star since some nuclear fusion of rare isotopes of hydrogen and helium can (and does) occur.

(Today, we know there are two other planets orbiting 47 Ursae Majoris orbiting at 3.6 and 11.6 AUs. That outer planet takes almost 40 years to orbit and has the distinction of being the longest-period planet ever discovered by the radial velocity method.)

70 Virginis is a star a bit more massive than the Sun and might be starting to swell into a red giant phase. It has a planet orbiting it, about 7.5 Jupiter masses…and it’s in a 116 day orbit. Although not as extreme as 51 Pegasi b, it’s too close to be a gas giant. But the bigger surprise is that the orbit’s eccentricity is 0.4!

One of the other things we expected, based on our own Solar System, was that planets would be in almost circular orbits. A circular orbit has an eccentricity of 0.0. 0.4 starts looking distinctly oval shaped.

Red: Eccentricity 0 (a circular orbit)
Green: Eccentricity 0.2
Cyan: Eccentricity 0.4
Orange: Eccentricity 0.6
Magenta: Eccentricity 0.8
All orbits have the same semimajor axis (that’s half of the width of the ellipse, measured the long way), so the planets shown have the same period. Note how much the magenta planet speeds up and slows down, though.

(Mercury is the most eccentric planetary orbit in our Solar System, at about 0.2. Which is why it was possible to spot the precession of its aphelion so easily, as figured into Einstein’s discovery of general relativity.)

A large planet in an eccentric orbit will tend to destabilize things in orbits in between its periastron (closest approach) and apoastron (furthest distance) from the star it’s orbiting. So this is yet more evidence of chaos in planetary system formation.

Many of Marcy’s exoplanets turned out to be gas giants orbiting “too close” to their stars…so we’ve given this absurd-seeming class of planets a name: we call them “Hot Jupiters.”

And they don’t seem to make sense. But they were, for a while, by far the most common kind of planet we knew of.

But…and this is an important lesson…that is because they were far and away the easiest to detect! They orbited close to their parent star (which increased the Doppler wobble) and they are massive (which increases the Doppler wobble). Remember, a nice normal planet like Earth would be undetectable by this method! So of course they didn’t find anything like Earth, because they couldn’t.

Kepler Space Telescope (2009-2018)

Fast forward to 2009. The business of looking for exoplanets is now very respectable.

And NASA launched a space telescope named Kepler, after Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), who first identified the laws of planetary orbital motion. There couldn’t be a better choice of name.

This was a very specialized instrument. It did exactly one thing. It hunted for exoplanets.

It simply stared at a patch of sky near the constellation Cygnus (the Swan, it contains the Northern Cross). It continuously stared at 150,000 stars all at once, watching their brightness.

Kepler Field Of View

What was it doing? It was applying the transit method of detecting extrasolar planets.

If you recall, this method relies on the planet crossing between us and the star it’s orbiting. This is a very unlikely configuration (the orbit could be tilted at any angle with respect to the line of sight; it has to be very, very close to crossing directly through our line of sight to see the planet move in front of its star). But if you’re looking at a hundred and fifty thousand stars all at once, you will get some hits. If there are any planets. And remember that if you can detect a planet this way, you won’t just get its mass and its orbital period, you’ll get a good estimate of its physical size…and hence you’ll be able to compute its density. And that tells you whether it’s made of rocks or gas…or ice.

In other words, we could collect a statistically meaningful sample to find out just how common exoplanets really were (many times as common as were detected, because most planets won’t transit as seen from here). The transit method is more sensitive and can detect planets closer to Earth-like if it works at all.

One vital condition of “earthlike” is the size of the planet…but another is its distance from the star it’s orbiting. We want to know if the planet is at a temperature where water can be a liquid on its surface. And that requires that it be in the “Goldilocks zone.” Not too hot, not too cold…but just right. More formally, this is called the star’s habitable zone. This is about 1 AU out for a star the size (and brightness) of our sun. Most stars are smaller and cooler and their habitable zones are closer to the star as a consequence.

The mission ran until 2018, when Kepler ran out of fuel. It was switched off on November 15th, the 388th anniversary of Johannes Kepler’s death.

And Kepler found 2,662 confirmed exoplanets–plus an additional 3600 unconfirmed candidates. Every star that seemed to have planets got a Kepler number, e.g., Kepler 1544, so the exoplanets have imaginative names like Kepler-1544 b.

In many cases multiple planets were detected orbiting a star.

A handful of these planets orbit in the habitable zone and appear to be rocky planets. In fact, Kepler-1544 b is one of them. Its radius is 1.78 times as much as Earth, and the mass is 3.84 times as much as Earth.

There are a number of these “Super Earths,” in fact, many not in their stars’ habitable zones. It’s hard, even with this method, to detect smaller planets. The planet orbits at about .54 AU with a year of 168 days. This is NOT too close to the star, however, because Kepler-1544 is a cooler star than our Sun. In fact most finds seem to have been around stars markedly cooler than the Sun.

Want to see the list? Here you go, knock yourself out.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_exoplanets_discovered_using_the_Kepler_space_telescope

Here’s another one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler-1649 . This star appears to have both a Venus-like planet and an Earth like planet in orbit about it. The star itself is a red dwarf, so the planets orbit at less than 0.1 AU, and their years are 8 and 19 days long, respectively.

Post Kepler

Kepler did a lot of work, but others have been adding to the count.

One system that is famous right now is TRAPPIST-1. It’s 39 light years away in the direction of Aquarius, and is 9% as massive as the Sun–hence much cooler in temperature. In 2016-17, astronomers at the Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope in Chile discovered that there are no less than seven terrestrial (rocky) planets in orbit about this star. Three, or maybe even four, of the planets appear to be in the habitable zone. Orbits range from 0.011 to 0.06 AUs. Remember this is a cool star. In fact, it radiates mostly in the infrared, so even at noon on the planets, it probably wouldn’t seem brighter than at sunset here on Earth, though temperatures would be closer to “normal.”

(Apparently Kepler did look at this star at one point.)

There is also a new satellite, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), launched in 2018. It has already found over four thousand candidate planets, yet to be confirmed.

Using the gravitational lensing method, in 2020 astronomers reported an earth-mass rogue planet (one that is wandering interstellar space). Apparently it crossed in front of some star when someone was looking at that star.

A device called a vortex coronagraph has allowed astronomers to directly image large, distant exoplanets more easily than before. Recall that direct imaging works for such planets (the farther out the better; the closer the star to us, the better); I’ve even seen a time lapse GIF of four planets orbiting a star. The Hale Telescope at Mount Palomar has been very useful for this sort of thing. (Seventy years old and still going strong!)

So, we’re getting better at this. I’ve pointed you to lists and some number counts, but let’s look at a diagram that might clarify things:

The higher up you go on that diagram, the bigger the planet. You can see pictures of Jupiter, Neptune and Earth at the right to give a sense of scale. To the left, planets orbit near their star. Hot Jupiters appear here. To the right, they’re further out and you will see a group labeled “Cold Gas Giants.” Then further down you see large planets that appear as though they may consist largely of water, or ices.

But the overwhelming majority of dots, mostly Kepler detections, are “Rocky planets” like our own, many, many of them much larger than Earth (which is the largest rocky planet in this planetary system). And ones very close to their star are expected to have molten lava surfaces, simply because that close to the star they get very hot.

But in the lower right, is the “Frontier.” If there are planets here, we can’t detect them yet. (And we know of some such planets, for instance Mars.)

The Future

This is very, very much a story in progress. The James Webb Space Telescope is expected to be able to not only see some of these planets, but also detect and analyze their atmospheres.

What we would be really excited to see is planets with water and an oxygen atmosphere.

Water, because that’s the one thing every life form we know of must have. Even oxygen isn’t as universally necessary. (There are bacteria that manage to live in water near boiling, and others that manage to thrive inside nuclear reactors, and of course there are plenty of anaerobic critters out there (like botulism) but nothing we know of can live without water.)

Oxygen, because if we find an oxygen atmosphere it’s almost certainly a sign that life exists on that planet.

If plants stopped photosynthesizing right now, no oxygen would be created. And the oxygen in the air would slowly combine with other things on Earth and be bound up, much like on Mars, which is largely a rusty planet. In other words, an oxygen atmosphere is not stable, because oxygen is so reactive. An oxygen atmosphere can only exist if something continually creates more oxygen. And although there are some other possibilities a strong candidate for creating oxygen would be living things. It would be by far the strongest evidence we have that life exists elsewhere. Though that doesn’t mean “ET” because that life might just be algae–pond scum in other words.

But pond scum is still life, after all no one accuses Joe Biden of being dead, just demented.

DEAR KAG: 20220121 – The Pub is OPEN / The Anti-Saline Theory and The Toxic Batch Problem

The Pub is OPEN!

Tonight is a special night. We invite ALL SCIENTISTS to come down to the bar for TWO HOURS, and listen to one scientist appeal to our LOGIC and our COMMON SENSE on the TOXIC BATCH PROBLEM.

ALL WHO WISH are invited to sit down, drink in hand, and watch – but it is especially important that ALL SCIENTISTS see this.

It is my contention that if ALL scientists in the world – on this planet – watch this video that I will show you, then the entire WORLD will be QUICKLY AWAKENED to the reality of some kind of systematic problem with the current COVID vaccines – some kind of problem which is evidenced by toxicity showing up with certain batches.

But more about that later.

Right now, come into the bar and find a comfy spot.

While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.

Though we are not especially good at mixing tasty drinks, we can stir some occasional thoughts into a compelling report, argument, recollection, or proposition.

And with that barest promise, we begin.


On the Jukebox

The rare live version of a song rarely found on any bar jukebox – enjoy!

Psalm 118:19-24

19Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the LORD.

20This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it.

21I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.

22The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

23This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24This is the day that the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.


Christmas Spirit

We are going to stretch out Christmas longer than your neighbor who never takes down their Christmas lights.

Enjoy this reminder of how special it was to have the Trumps in the White House.

Will they be back?

STAY TUNED!!!

And now, the rules of the pub.


HOUSE RULES

God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.

Now, back to business.


AMEN!

Current Art On The Wall

We opened this week’s shipment, and there was a note on top of the contents that said:

“DANGER: STEAMPUNK”

Looks like a real Pandora’s box to me!

Sure enough, the very next thing we found was MONDAY’S LEFTOVERS.

Mmmmmmmmm. Remember – if the can isn’t actually bulging, you can ignore the date!

Click it! The music seems useful for viewing the remainder of the art!

MOAR COWBELL GEARS!!!

Yeah, I’m enjoying this timeframe-loosening absinthe of sorts.

Indeed, absinthe per se seems to be a meme in steampunk.

Look for GREENPUNK as a subgenre of STEAMPUNK.

OK – one more image and then back to reality.

LOL. Nope. That’s not it.

Let’s try another.

AYE-YI-YI. That’s not it, either. I get the sentiment, but I tend to think the devil’s in certain details of the genre, and – as always in the art world – one must proceed with caution.

Although I do have a story about a fantastic dream you may have heard. In some ways, it was the opposite of steampunk, but it had a certain similar quality of alternate reality about it.

Let’s try one more.

Hey – that’s not steampunk! That’s REALPUNK.

I’ll let Steve tell us all about it.

In the meanwhile, we take leave of the infinitude of artistic imagination, and find ourselves back at the concrete.

Or so one might think!


And now our feature presentation

The Anti-Saline Theory and The Toxic Batch Problem – Did Somebody Actually Contaminate Lots of the Vaccines?


I never really thought that I might be defending Big Pharma – in whole or in part – at this point in the multiple scandals of the COVID-19 Plannedemic.

Maybe “defending” isn’t the right word. Maybe “presenting a potentially somewhat exonerating theory” IS the right phrase.

In fact, I don’t even know WHO I’m exonerating, or or that matter, WHO I’m accusing. Likewise, I’m not even sure who the TARGETS of the perpetrators in this “theory” actually are.

However, this is not a “conspiracy theory” – something which is generally certain of perpetrators, victims, and motives.

This is a CRIMINAL THEORY. This is a theory which allows us to begin to examine an apparent crime, in order to determine perpetrators, victims, and motives. It’s a theory which may even be wrong.

I ask all of you to briefly set aside prejudices, which is often necessary to do when evidence needs to be viewed as potential exoneration. Feel free to bring your prejudices and prior theories back AFTER you have looked at these possibilities, because you will need to compare theories, and your current favorites need to CONTEND with what I’m proposing here.

Thus, we begin.


The Saline Theory

The SALINE THEORY – which many regard as a criminal theory, and which others regard as a “conspiracy theory”, contends that the reason some people have either NO REACTION or ALMOST NO REACTION to the “clot shot” – meaning all the standard Western COVID-19 vaccines – is that those people are being given medical saline solution instead of actual coronavirus vaccines.

The proposed motives for this, generally speaking, are either to spare particular individuals from the problems of the vaccines, OR to statistically reduce the numbers of people being KILLED or INJURED by the vaccines to acceptable levels.

Now, in full disclosure, I have been generally, if quietly, rather critical of the saline theory, despite the fact that I am very skeptical of Big Pharma in general, and even more skeptical of Pfizer and Moderna.

Why am I skeptical of the theory? Basically, because it doesn’t really change most vaccines. In a sentence, vaccines are DESIGNED to approximate saline.

In the history of vaccines, the GOAL has always been to literally approach the state of “injecting people with saline” – meaning not much of anything is given, and nothing bad happens.

Thus, an ideal vaccine – and in practice most good vaccines – basically do nothing except grant immunity, which until recently was always expected to be inferior to “natural” disease-conferred immunity.

Let me point out AS AN ASIDE right here that the industry lost megatons of credibility by letting the media trot out nonsense about vaccine immunity being better than disease-conferred immunity, allegedly negating centuries of medical knowledge. Foolish to abandon the truth on that one. Clearly the result of Big Pharma now having the upper hand against Big Med, thanks to Big Finance, and the willingness of Big Media to tell any lie. But I digress.

The point is simple. We EXPECT normal, good vaccines to have very few adverse events – so rare that we rarely hear about them – and that people basically ARE getting saline.

In other words, people generally can’t tell the difference between a good vaccine, a “bad because too weak” vaccine, and saline.

THAT’S THE POINT – that the REALITY of rare adverse events is expected to MATCH our experience of almost never hearing about or experiencing first, second, or third-hand, that somebody had a problem with a vaccine.

I myself went through life NEVER connecting a vaccine to any personal injury – that is, until I got over 30 years of flu shots, religiously, but then switched to my dominant shoulder for no particular reason, and experienced subsequent NOTICEABLE inflammatory issues which were very likely connected to the vaccine. All that being said, I was much older at that point, and older people ARE more likely to experience inflammation of joints as part of getting old. Indeed, this didn’t stop me from getting the flu shot for a number of more years – KNOWING that the vaccine might be responsible.

SO – bottom line – I’m not at all skeptical of vaccine injury, from sore arms up to death.

But I remain skeptical of the saline theory – for the stated reasons.

I never throw anything OUT completely – but I have been quite skeptical that there might be ANY kind of conspiracy – even a very realistic one – to replace weak “do-nothing” vaccines that the industry has spent DECADES making, and is quite good at making, with saline that does almost the same thing.

And INDEED – bear the opposite in mind. Bad things happen to people who get placebos, “because math”. And more than that, bad things happen to people who get saline, “because injection”. It’s extremely rare, but it DOES happen. This is an acknowledged truth of Anthony Fauci’s Holy of Holies, the placebo-controlled double-blind study. That’s why researchers factor out the difference which comes simply from “doing the test”.

But the fact is simple. Saline is generally pretty damn safe to inject, because it does nothing. A good vaccine, likewise, does nothing but provide some degree of immunity – hopefully lifelong, but with a number of years generally being acceptable, depending on the vaccine.

SO – if you tell me somebody got saline – I will tell you that they got a “good vaccine”, and we’re left with only some very difficult science to tell which of us is right.

However, all of that has a problem.

A HUGE problem.

The problem is summed up by the fact that almost everybody in the English-speaking world recognizes the term “clot shot” as a grim, joking nickname for the COVID-19 vaccines.

That didn’t happen by accident. Admittedly, it’s an injection for preventing or pre-treating a clotting disease by generating immunity TO a clotting protein WITH that same clotting protein, or something very similar to it. BUT STILL…..

In practice, this is NOT a harmless vaccine. No amount of propaganda changes that.


The Anti-Saline Theory

So what is the ANTI-SALINE THEORY?

The anti-saline theory, based on something called the toxic batch problem, is roughly a mirror image of the saline theory. It thus contends that some of the coronavirus vaccines were the opposite of non-toxic saline which could NOT harm people, and were, in fact, loaded with something nasty which caused illness and death.

Possible motives are likewise mirror images of the saline theory – to either harm certain people, or to INCREASE the number of injuries and deaths from the vaccines.

NOW – let me be clear. In the absence of the “potential evidence” of the toxic batch problem, I would be every bit as skeptical of the anti-saline theory as I am of the saline theory.

Even for a bad, risky, side-effect-prone vaccine, blaming the still-generally-infrequent side-effects on anything BUT the vaccine itself would seem foolhardy. We have MANY “more risky” vaccines for nasty tropical diseases, from yellow fever up to Ebola, which we generally ONLY give to people at high risk of actually getting the disease, because the vaccines may be a LESSER RISK than the disease, but they are an INCREASED RISK over most vaccines.

We normally don’t need to postulate that the cause of that higher risk is adulteration due to a new cause or perpetrator, when we have the vaccine itself and the vaccine makers, presumably fighting the risk but possibly not succeeding as well as we would like, as our primary suspects.

So how does the toxic batch problem change all that?


The Toxic Batch Problem

First, a reflection. A bit of a warning. Something to prepare you.


At the various stages where one understands pieces of this problem, the revelations really cannot be “unseen”. And yet, the fact that this problem WAS unseen by SO many for SO long, raises questions about whether or not we are just now seeing the edges of something which has been with us for far longer than we realized.

I know that sounds a bit fantastic, as well as euphemistic and even a bit “code”, but now you understand why so many people who have gained deep knowledge of problems with the COVID vaccines, have gone through various emotionally jarring moments of realization.

Something is NOT RIGHT, and yet there seems to be INTENTION behind the condition.

SO – if you get HIT by this sort of realization as we are going along, just know that you are not alone.

OK, back to work. Ah, yes. The toxic batch problem.


I can sum it up as this.

Normally, one expects that a consistently produced pharmaceutical has a VERY wide range of reactions in those to whom it is given, BUT that this statistical range of responses (you can imagine a bar graph, a pie chart, a curve, or a whole bunch of all of them) will stay roughly the same from BATCH TO BATCH.

Stated simply, we expect the variation BETWEEN sets of variations to be SMALL, CLOSE, PREDICTABLE, and REPRODUCIBLE.

This is simply the “law of large numbers”. You flip a thousand pennies. I flip a thousand pennies. It’s very unlikely that we’ll get exactly the same numbers, but BOTH OF US will be close to 500 heads and 500 tails. Any deviation from this will be a nice bell curve, perfectly explainable by statistics.

Try any “batch” of pennies – it will be close to 50:50 heads-to-tails because of the consistency of pennies.

The toxic batch problem is that adverse events for the COVID-19 vaccine batches violate this – and in a HUGE WAY.

A small fraction of the batches (about 5%) are STRIKINGLY TOXIC relative to all the other batches.

The differences are too big, the harmless group is too large, the nasty group is too small, and there are additional patterns that are not random and should not be there.

Yes, there will be variation in the exact numbers of deaths and injuries from batch to batch, “because statistics“, but that variation should be small, natural, centered, and understandable mostly in terms of mathematics. If there IS a big difference in the numbers between the batches, then there has to be some kind of systematic difference – most likely either in the contents of the batches, or in the administration of the batches.

Let’s look at the latter first.

As an example of an administration difference, if you give one batch to kids, and another to seniors, you expect differences. However, if the batches are BIG, and they’re used in a lot of different places, and the groups of people those places serve are large and diverse, then the differences from administration will vanish.

And even if those differences DON’T vanish – in FACT, even if you INTENTIONALLY give one batch to kids and another to seniors, those differences cannot be as big as what was observed.

Another administration difference would be to use some batches ONLY for first injections, and others ONLY for second injections.

Again, we do expect differences there, but not nearly as big as what is observed.

IN FACT, the difference between the “good, nearly harmless batches” (doesn’t that sound like saline?) and the BAD batches is SO big, that it is NOT EXPLAINED by ANYTHING seen in the Moderna and Pfizer trials.

THIS is one of our first clues that something is actually wrong with the contents of those toxic batches.

Now – let’s look at the possibility of a difference in contents.

Could it be that the vaccines are “going bad” and turning into something more poisonous?

Yes, this is possible – BUT the fact of the matter is that when drugs degrade, they almost invariably become “less active”, not MORE active – and certainly never MORE active by orders of magnitude.

Rocks just don’t “roll uphill” by themselves.

In fact, there is a great argument you will see later, made about the COVID-19 vaccine data, as compared to the flu vaccine data, which points out that if you remove all the “bad batches” from the COVID-19 vaccine data, it looks almost exactly like the flu shot.

BASICALLY, SALINE.

Like a normal vaccine is supposed to look.

Now, hopefully, you not only understand why I called this the “anti-saline theory”, but you are also “seeing certain things that you cannot unsee”.

Because YES – something is definitely wrong with those batches.

Even if you don’t accept that the majority of batches are “harmless”, something is terribly wrong with the rest.


But before I get into talking about possible reasons as to WHY these “bad batches” are different, I want to thoroughly convince you that they ARE different and that it’s NOT NORMAL.

I want to give you a brief introduction to the toxic batch problem as seen by the people who found it, examined it, and first told the world.


A Pharma Exec & Researcher Examines the Data

We begin with a video of a man who appears to me to be very typical of the scientists that I knew during my career. He does not appear crazy, loony, mentally ill, psychopathic, or even irrational.

He seems, if anything, like somebody who has witnessed institutional madness descending upon their professional world. You know – like what happened to scientists in Russia in the early 1900s, and in Germany and Italy in the 1930s.

As I listened to this guy, he made scientific sense, just like any seminar speaker, invited lecturer, or even an interviewer for student job prospects from a drug company.

In fact, I believe that if most scientists listened to him, they would BELIEVE HIM.

There is something *apparently* wrong with certain specific batches of the COVID vaccines from three companies that were used globally AND specifically in America. And according to the speaker, a retired drug industry executive and research scientist, this difference cannot be random – it must be adulteration of some kind.

Just watch and see what you think.


LINK: https://odysee.com/@Corona-Investigative-Committee:5/Mike-Session-86-en:0


Now – let me summarize.

The most key and salient point is that vaccine side effects vary strongly by batch number – and in a way that the drug companies MUST understand to be REAL and PROBLEMATIC. The variation is NOT merely statistical from a quality-controlled product. It is systematic – meaning it has a CAUSE other than randomness. It is not necessarily intentional (IMO), but it is an OBVIOUS problem.

There is also some argument over how batch toxicity varies across time and batch number – I will leave THAT for the next videos.

The point which the speaker, Dr. Yeadon, made which struck me hardest, was the simple but powerful idea that the individual responses of recipients to a vaccine batch can vary wildly, BUT that the statistical array of responses will NOT vary significantly between batches – that it CANNOT vary – UNLESS there is some REAL, SIGNIFICANT, CONTENT DIFFERENCE between the batches.

The alternative, in my opinion, would be that the batch differences are administration-based – e.g., that batches primarily used for SECOND administrations would have much higher adverse events.

I’m not wed to that thought – but it is an alternative that is every bit as troubling as content differences, and negates the entire strategy of “boosterism”. I also tend to doubt it, both because it does not explain the magnitude of the difference, and is also statistically very unlikely. Content differences just seem more likely to me.


The People Who Found The Toxic Batch Problem

NEXT, I want to deepen the explanation of what Dr. Yeadon was describing. Yeadon provides drug industry credibility to the idea that batch differences are real and almost certainly content-based. They don’t look right to somebody with industry experience.

But NOW we need to explore possible explanations for those differences, based on a closer look at the differences themselves.

SO – next, I want to show you some additional videos and web pages that drill down into the “toxic batch problem”.

We’ll start with the “secondary reporting” and then get to the data itself.

In this video, Stu Peters and Dr. Jane Ruby, who I criticize routinely when they edge toward clickbait, are doing an AMAZING job of reporting on a group of investigators who studied the batch differences. This is excellent journalism. These two can only be as good as their material, but WOW – they have quality material here.


LINK: https://www.brighteon.com/9a45a7a0-e260-4a6c-a251-2b4c139dd211


Now, follow that up with an even deeper examination of the toxic batches.

Jump to 12:50 to continue the discussion. Jane Ruby ends at about 19:00. At 20:00 (to 32:12) it picks back up again with a member of the investigatory group, Team Enigma, who is a pharmaceutical industry bio-statistician. She adds a different perspective on how SMALL any group poisoning the vaccines might be.

This doesn’t require a grand conspiracy of many people. It might involve only a few dedicated and highly skilled saboteurs.


LINK: https://rumble.com/vs59wj-live-hackers-reveal-deadly-jab-lot-numbers-horrific-pfizer-teen-trial-data-.html

Now, let’s look at one of the original presentations of data by Team Enigma.


LINK: https://www.bitchute.com/video/4HlIyBmOEJeY/

Points made in this video:

  • dosages of pharmaceuticals are normally highly controlled
  • consistency and purity are also normally highly controlled
  • COVID vaccines can be readily and correctly compared to flu vaccines
  • flu vaccines are consistent and low in adverse events
  • COVID vaccines are NOT consistent, and vary widely between harmless and highly toxic
  • toxic batches are too wide-spread – problems like refrigeration loss cannot be responsible

Now – here is an EXTREMELY compelling video, which shows in great detail the DIFFERENCE between the “harmless batches” and the “toxic batches”.

LINK: https://www.bitchute.com/video/6xIYPZBkydsu/

Pay special attention to the following ideas:

  • most batches (roughly 80%) are almost completely harmless
  • the bad batches produce up to (and in MANY cases) a thousand times more adverse reactions
  • when viewed geographically in the United States, the bad batches affect every state in America

The latter point proves the generality of the effect – that local differences can’t account for the toxicity of the particular lots. If anything, the high distribution of the batches seems to be used to hide the toxicity.

Next, I want to return you to the PERSONAL REALITY of the toxic batch problem.


A Personal Case of a Bad Batch

It turns out that Dr. Robert Malone got one of the “bad batches” for his second vaccine, and almost died.

A Good Review of the Toxic Batch Problem

Lastly, here is a very nice review of work on the toxic batch problem. Very nicely put together, with lots of graphs and key points as quotes. This is a real CONVINCER.

LINK: https://hillmd.substack.com/p/vaccine-batches-vary-in-toxicity

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/h0R8Y

Some of the videos in the review have been removed for some reason, but not this one.

This video is truly stunning. This video shows apparent patterns in the deployment of batches. While I am not fully in agreement that this is proven to be the work of the companies themselves, I think that there is overwhelming evidence of “bad batches” and some kind of pattern which looks like the results are being studied.


By the time you’ve gotten here, you very likely think that something is definitely wrong with certain batches.

Next, I want to begin thinking about HOW and WHY somebody might want to do such a thing. In the process, I’m going to “lean into” some current events and statements made by varous people.

This is where things get political, geopolitical, military, and more.


How and Why Would Anybody Poison the West’s Major COVID Vaccines?

This is where we begin to say to ourselves:

Did somebody actually poison various lots of these vaccines? WHO would do it? Who COULD do it? WHY? Why would ANYBODY do this? HOW did they pull it off? WHAT possible benefit could they get from it? WHERE did they do it?

I’m going to leave most of these questions TO YOU ALL.

I want YOU to tell ME.

Now, we have a list of “usual suspects”, but things get interesting when you consider additional motives, additional suspects, and additional opportunities.

MEANS, MOTIVE, and OPPORTUNITY are what turn “conspiracy theories” into CRIMINAL THEORIES.

So I’m going to give you some “kick-starters” to get you seeing some possibilities.

The first thing that got me thinking “HMMMMM……” about things, was when Team Enigma began seeing evidence of coordination between the drug companies, in the chronology of the toxic batches.

As somebody who has been involved with real conspiracies, the idea that drug companies coordinated their plotting to poison the vaccines does NOT sound realistic.

Real conspiracies need compartmentalization. They need as few as possible seeing the big picture.

Thus, it is MUCH more likely, IMO, that there is a SINGLE player who is involved with ALL of the vaccines – a SINGLE player – who would be able to pull off a systematic study of poisoning them.

One such player is the CCP.

BOTH the Pfizer vaccine AND the Moderna vaccine are utterly dependent upon components manufactured in CHINA. Indeed, the “lipid nanoparticle technology” of the mRNA vaccines is pretty much delivered by Chinese companies.

That is how Karen Kingston discovered that components of the “clot shot” vaccines were manufactured by a Chinese company called SINOPEG, which ALSO specializes in something called “PEGylated graphene oxide”, which is further known to temperature-stabilize mRNA vaccines.

I’m not necessarily saying that graphene oxide was used here, although it’s worth considering.


SIDEBAR: For background on graphene oxide (sometimes called graphene hydroxide – it’s the same thing, really), go HERE.

SIDEBAR: For background on the work by Karen Kingston, former Pfizer employee, who figured out the Chinese connection on the lipid nanoparticle components, go HERE.


Moderna executives are also deeply associated with these Chinese companies and their controlling organizations – see photo below. Note what this page (discovered by Karen Kingston) means – you have COVID-19 vaccines, graphene lipid nanotech IN those same vaccines, and pictures of Moderna executives mentioned on the same page.

If this is not a smoking gun, it’s a pretty damn good imitation, suitable for blackmail.

Thus, it sure seemed possible to ME, that if the CCP or PLA wanted to “intervene” in the vaccines, they have MEANS and OPPORTUNITY.

What about MOTIVE?

Well, Deplorable Patriot found something that got me thinking.

So – according to this theory, the US is being blackmailed by the Chinese government.

As soon as I saw this, I realized exactly HOW the ChiComs could have war-gamed this whole thing for some grand-master play.

  • CCP/PLA + Cabal makes Western pharma weak and dependent upon ChiCom manufacturing
  • CCP/PLA has total control of Chinese companies and products they ship
  • CCP/PLA has total control of information within Chinese borders (remember their “rules” which made many SMART companies LEAVE CHINA)
  • CCP/PLA begins manipulating people to make them RUN FROM TRUTH and into CHINESE CONTROL

To me, this makes CHINA a no-brainer suspect. It doesn’t matter WHO is POTUS – Biden or Trump – if the vaccines have problems in the West, CHINA wins.

  • China gets power over the American POTUS
  • China gets power over the American Deep State
  • China gets power over the global pharmaceutical industry

Basically, it’s a form of entrapment.

And remember – if China gets caught and wants to blamecast, they can say “it wasn’t us – it was this rogue company cheating” – and nobody can prove otherwise on anything within Chinese borders.


NOW – there could be other players. China is not the only player who would benefit by making the West stumble here.

WEF, for instance, strikes me as “guilty as sin”. If the vaccines were really safe, they could not stir up as much division as we’re seeing. To me, KlauSS SSchwab and the WEFFEN SS have to be a suspect.

Depopulationists are also an easy target.

Satanists as well. This is their thing.

“FOREIGN” could also be doing things independently of their pet globalists and depopulationists.

Russia, unfortunately, is also an easy suspect, thanks to their stupid antics with Skripal and other spies. If the Russians wanted to keep America WEAK, causing a mess with the vaccines to keep Americans divided would be one way to do it. However, I tend to think that they don’t have as much MEANS and OPPORTUNITY as China. But to be fair, we have to keep Russia on the list.

Similarly Ukraine – to which Democrat operative Alexandra Chalupa seems to have some kind of weird supreme loyalty – because it doesn’t have a perfectly clean history on poisonings, either.

Ukrainian opposition presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko, with his face disfigured by illness, during an interview with the Associated Press in Kiev, Ukraine, Thursday, Dec. 16, 2004. Yushchenko said Thursday that he is sure he was poisoned by the Ukrainian government, and for the first time pinpointed the time and place of his dioxin poisoning: a Sept. 5 lunch with the head of the Ukrainian security service and his deputy. (AP Photo/Efrem Lukatsky)

And, of course, there is our own DEEP STATE, still led in truth by Barack Obama.

Obama seems really committed to a kind of Stalinist, utilitarian, “death panel” health agenda, where health-care shuffles off people to their graves to save money.

Obama’s famous academic and New York Times-featured “moral advisors” on healthcare have always been, and remain in my opinion, a litany of granny-snuffers. SO – if Obama’s “worst of the worst of the KGB faction in CIA” wanted to begin testing depopper stuff on us – well – they could be up to tricks.

But none of them has as much MMO as China.

All in all, CHINA looks like my main suspect.

They poisoned our dog treats forever, making it look like greedy little companies was the extent of the problem.

We just put up with it.

Maybe they got ideas from that.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, SUSPICIOUS CAT?


So who is your main suspect?

Or do you have a different explanation of the toxicity of the shots – and especially something that explains the weirdly binary toxicity / non-toxicity of the batches?

I’m interested in your thoughts!


Have a Great Weekend

And don’t forget to…..

ENJOY THE SHOW.

Dear KMAG: 20220117 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / 1Q22 / MLKJ Day / Malone & Navarro: Declaration of Vaccine Independence / Fauci Hid Early Knowledge of SARS-CoV-2

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS:

Get your rest NOW, Trumpy Bear! You’re going back to the White House!!!


The Business At Hand

This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!!!

Repeatedly!

And we’ll have a good time doing it!


About Today

Equal rights. Yes. It’s STILL a noble struggle.

Only the STRUGGLE is NOW with those who make sure things remain unequal between “Let’s You All And Them All Fight” groups.

Just sayin’.

It’s also the Qth of January.

Speaking of people who are actually fighting for equal rights.

ThanQ, wherever you are!


The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

If we err, we’re going to err in the direction of FREE SPEECH and PAINFUL TRUTH.

This is a feisty show, a lot like GAB. You can say what you want, but others can and will correct you, disagree with you, or oppose you – as long as they do so in a civil manner.

And you get to DISAGREE BACK.

You may be FRIENDLY, but you don’t have to be SILENT.

So DO try to be civil, but DON’T stay silent when something needs to be said, and YOU are the person who needs to say it.

FREE SPEECH – USE IT OR LOSE IT.

Civility makes us FIT to inherit the MORAL SYSTEM passed down to us by the Founders.

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

So OPPOSE EACH OTHER RESOLUTELY BUT WITH KINDNESS, in the manner of a guy named Paul.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our enemies, whose numbers diminish daily, as they flee to our camp in alliance, from the jabby and murderous designs of ROBBER JOE, WINNIE THE POOH, and the KISSINGER KABAL.


MUSICAL INTERLUDE

For your listening enjoyment, and general encouragement, we continue Wheatie’s tradition of fine music videos, shipped fresh from the seas of information by our intrepid authors.

Let’s finish near where we left off last time…..

So where does that lead?

To a fascinating node in the web of all things Q Tree…..

AUUURRRGGGHHH!!!! I need something with a little more PEP – and maybe a bit less CSNY CHOOMER SOY and BEELZEBUBBA STDs.

But still some estrogen, it would appear.

OK – that does it. Whether plant estrogens or the regular ones, it always leads to the dreaded condition of WAXY SOY FACE, and that is best exemplified by…..

REGRETCHEN WITCHMORE

a.k.a.

WITCHY WOMAN!!!

https://youtu.be/FZFQJg1WV-8

So as an antidote, I think I need THE OTHER GRETCHEN.

And now that we’re cured of all this stuff, let’s see if we can find…..

Some actual WHEATIE MUSIC. You know – epic soundtrack stuff!

How about this?

OK – not quite. Sorry – it’s everything wrong with Hollywood. Epic but not inspiring.

Let’s try THIS.

“Epic Victorian Steampunk” or something like that!

Ah – that’s more like it! THAT is what we need……


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


A Declaration of Independence from Immoral and Unconstitutional Vaccine Mandates

by Dr. Robert Malone & Peter Navarro

in Washington, DC – January 12, 2022

from https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/jan/12/just-say-no-to-biden-and-faucis-universal-vaccinat/


In this declaration of independence from a “Forced Universal Vaccination Policy,” we hold these truths to be evident:

SARS-CoV-2 appears to be a bioweapon genetically engineered at the Wuhan Institute of Virology using gain-of-function technologies transferred to China by Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institutes of Health bureaucracy and funded in part by both NIH and the threat mitigation branch of the Department of Defense’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

China’s virus has killed millions, undermined the economies of China’s rivals and destabilized Western-style democracies through panicky authoritarian measures such as vaccine passports, economic lockdowns and mask/vaccination mandates.

No vaccine exists capable of eradicating the virus comparable to vaccines for diseases like polio and smallpox, and COVID-19 has entered a variety of animal reservoirs. At this point, it cannot be eradicated by any human vaccine.

Furthermore, the public health threat of the omicron variant is minuscule while our national medicine cabinet contains only a very mixed bag of highly leaky and nondurable quasi-vaccines. For example, the Pfizer and Moderna jabs are based on an experimental mRNA technology originally developed by one of this piece’s authors (Malone), are of primitive construction and are associated with the development of vaccine and monoclonal antibody-resistant viral mutations.

With leakiness, vaccinated individuals are becoming infected at increasing rates. With nondurability, the Pied Pipers of forced vaccinations are demanding ever more “booster” jabs.

America’s quasi-vaccines are significantly riskier than public health officials have disclosed. They can trigger serious cardiac and thrombotic conditions, menstrual cycle disruptions, Bell’s palsy, Guillain-Barre syndrome and anaphylaxis. Male children appear particularly prone to myocarditis, while, post-vaccination, individuals may have suppressed immunities that make them vulnerable to other diseases.

Government officials like Dr. Fauci and Big Pharma executives like Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla and Scott Gottlieb have fed us a steady diet of “noble lie” assurances to encourage universal vaccination. This propaganda has been disseminated by outlets such as CNN and MSNBC and reinforced by systematic Big Tech censors like Facebook and Google determined to hide reality from the public — even as drug company lawyers work to avoid data disclosure that would inform us otherwise.

The virus is now so thoroughly embedded in global populations that, like the common cold and flu, it will be with us for the foreseeable future. It is long past time to substitute Dr. Fauci’s increasingly frantic “vaccine” as a silver bullet fantasy for this reality: The genetic vaccines and overall Fauci/Biden policies have utterly failed to meet their public health objectives — even as life insurance executives such as OneAmerica CEO J. Scott Davison are on fire concerning the overall high mortality rates they are observing in their data.

Alternatively, we must pragmatically build “herd immunity” against the virus, and the quickest and safest way to do this is to reserve vaccination for the most vulnerable (who are already highly vaccinated) while flooding our communities with cheap, safe and efficacious therapeutics freely prescribed in early treatment by personal physicians.

In this fundamentally conservative strategy, no healthy person below the age of 60 should be enticed — or coerced! — to get vaccinated. This is especially true for healthy children, who are at little risk from the prior higher-risk virus strains and develop more robust, diverse and durable immunity than the quasi-vaccinated.

It should go without saying that healthy normal children should not be treated with experimental medical products. This is particularly true given that over half the nation’s children have already developed the enhanced natural immunity engendered by infection, and the risk of side effects of the Pfizer/BioNTech product is higher in those that have developed natural immunity.

Regarding therapeutics, abundant research now shows hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, in particular, can significantly moderate symptoms, reduce hospital stays, eliminate the need for a ventilator, and take death off the table when administered in “early treatment” after symptoms begin. Both are not just far cheaper than the new antiviral pills approved by the FDA and pimped by Merck and Pfizer. They are safer and likely more effective.

The biggest health risk from the Biden/Fauci universal vaccination strategy is this doomsday scenario: The more you vaccinate, the more likely you will spawn vaccine-resistant mutations; and the more likely those vaccinated will fall prey to the mutations. A particularly lethal vaccine-resistant mutation in a universally vaccinated world may well wipe out the human race.

This is not science fiction. It is Virology 101 — Black Swan event though it may be. Furthermore, troubling data is emerging from Denmark and the UK that vaccination may increase the risk of omicron infection.

The biggest political risk as America’s mass formation hypnotized bureaucrats ratchet up the universal vaccination pressure are the threats to our jobs and access to schools, shopping, restaurants and sports arenas. Mr. Fauci is now even discussing banning airline travel for the unvaccinated. He seeks to herd us like sheep (or lemmings) towards a vaccine nation ruled by the same kind of overbearing authoritarian apparatchiks epitomized by the very country from which the virus originated.

That Australia, Canada and Europe have already reached a disturbing state of forced vaccination disgrace should be a warning sign to every American still concerned about freedom and the future of American democracy.

If the Biden/Fauci doctrine were based on sound science and a workable strategy, and if omicron were causing severe disease and death, trading freedom for reduced risk might be barely tolerable. But this current frantic madness cuts against the grain of both current data and every scientific principle we know.

The Biden/Fauci administration has become consumed by a mass formation fantasy of safe and effective gene vaccines that can save us from a nonexistent omicron danger.

Accordingly, today we declare our independence from these fools and urge all of our fellow citizens — vaccinated or not — to do the same. This is based on current scientific data, not on a hypnotized fantasy.


• Dr. Robert Malone is the discoverer of in-vitro and in-vivo RNA transfection and the original inventor of the core mRNA vaccine technology. Peter Navarro served in the Trump White House, assisted in rapid development of the gene vaccines and is the author of “In Trump Time: A Journal of America’s Plague Year” (All Seasons Press).


Peter Navarro SCORCHES Anthony Fauci

In this video, J.D. Rucker interviews Peter Navarro on Anthony Fauci.

Just listen to the FIRST TWO MINUTES of this shocking video, which shows that Fauci KNEW from the beginning that this was his virus, and he withheld that information.

Take note – a picture of the WUHAN INSTITUTE OF VIROLOGY is behind Navarro as he speaks.

Glory to God

Created for God’s Glory (Isaiah 43:7)

Isaiah 43:7 “. . . everyone who is called by my name, whom I have created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”

We might have asked ourselves these questions, “Why has God created us? What is the purpose? What do the scriptures have to say in regard to this matter?” God’s Word points out that all things are created for God’s glory.

We can see by the word of God that even nature itself glorifies God. Psalm 19:1 says “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork”, Psalm 8:1 says “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens.” In fact, God’s Word tells us all things are to praise God, as it says in Psalm 150:6 “Let everything that has breath praise the LORD! Praise the LORD!”

So from this viewpoint, mankind is created to give “glory” to God. But what does the word “glory” mean in the first place? In order to apply this passage to our lives, we need to first understand the meaning of the word “glory”.

Depending on the context in which it is used, “glory” can be used in several different ways. Mostly it is associated with attributing splendor and majesty to God, but glory is also used as a verb, as in “to glory in something”.

When used as a verb, “glory” means to put confidence in and boast about or praise something. This may be used in the sense of glorifying in God or Jesus Christ, which God’s Word portrays as something that is good, and in the another sense of the word it can mean to glorify in ourselves or our own nature, which God’s Word portrays as sinful.

The original Hebrew word (Kabod) means “weight” or “heaviness”. This word is also used to express importance, honor and majesty. The word glory as related to God in the Old Testament bears with it the idea of greatness of splendor. In the New Testament, the word translated “glory” means dignity, honor, praise and worship.

With this understanding, let’s look at Isaiah 43:7 again, which says “everyone who is called by My name, whom I have created for My glory, whom I formed and made.” Now we that we have a clearer understanding of the word glory, let’s see how we can fulfill the purpose of giving all glory to God, which is the very reason we are made.

We are image-bearers of the Almighty God. We are created to bring glory to Him, to honor Him, to praise His glorious name, to thank Him for His abundance in our life and to praise Him for His abundant grace, the riches of His love, His splendor and majesty and a God who is righteous and just and having power in His name that we may come to Him in reverence and awe. This is the very purpose of man – to glorify God in every way.

Glorifying God means to acknowledge His greatness and give Him honor by praising and worshiping Him, primarily because He, and He alone deserves to be praised, honored and worshiped. 1 Chronicles 16:28-29 says “Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His Name; bring an offering and come before Him! Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness;”

He is also due all glory because He gives us our very being itself. Psalm 100:3 says “Know that the LORD, He is God! It is He who made us, and we are His;” In a worldly sense we are quick to give gratitude and praise to someone we know, that has saved our very life from danger or even from death itself.

Sometimes we don’t even know how to thank that person for what he/she has done for us. We tend to hold that person in high regard and praise their actions. Sometimes we even use the phrase “I am forever  indebted to you”. This shows a kind of gratitude towards that person because of the enormity of their actions toward us and we feel we owe them something in return but don’t know how. We sometimes even use the phrase, “I don’t know how I’m ever going to repay you!”.

In the same way, what we need to realize is that not only has God saved our very lives from the wages of sin and death, and given us eternal life, but that He is the very author of life; it is the kindness of God to gift us our very life. When we look at this, isn’t it only reasonable that we should glorify Him? Shouldn’t we live to Him, seeing that we also “live by Him”. Romans 11:36 says: “For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be glory forever. Amen.”

Another reason we should glorify God is because all our hopes hang on Him. Psalm 39:7 says “And now, O LORD, for what do I wait? My hope is in you.” Not only is our very hope and expectation in Him but He is the source of all things in our lives. Psalm 87:7 says “All my springs are in you.” The springs of grace, mercy, love, faith, provision, healing and everything that will lead us to give glory to His Holy Name.

Not only that but He gave His one and only Son, Jesus Christ to come and die for our sins in our place and to take the sin of the world on His shoulders that we should be cleansed of all sin and made right before God. All of this was given as a free gift that cost us nothing, but cost Him everything. We would be totally and utterly ungrateful, unappreciative and thankless if we then questioned, why should I give God Glory, or isn’t is selfish for God to demand glory from His own creation. He is completely and totally worthy of all glory that is due to His Name, and His Name only. Praise God!

SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom

I normally save this for near the end, but…basically…up your shit-kicking barbarian asses. Yes, barbarian! It took a bunch of sailors in Western Asia to invent a real alphabet instead of badly drawn cartoons to write with. So much for your “civilization.”

Yeah, the WORLD noticed you had to borrow the Latin alphabet to make Pinyin. Like with every other idea you had to steal from us “Foreign Devils” since you rammed your heads up your asses five centuries ago, you sure managed to bastardize it badly in the process.

Have you stopped eating bats yet? Are you shit-kickers still sleeping with farm animals?

Or maybe even just had the slightest inkling of treating lives as something you don’t just casually dispose of?

中国是个混蛋 !!!
Zhōngguò shì gè hùndàn !!!
China is asshoe !!!

And here’s my response to barbarian “asshoes” like you:

OK, with that rant out of my system…

Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit

…we can move on to the next one.

Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.

Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.

Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!

It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.

In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.

Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.

The So-Called Vax

I think I can actually make sense of the Vaxers now. (And I’m going to call it the “treatment” from here forward.)

Everything they do makes sense (from their point of view, that is), if you assume that they believe the purpose of the treatment is to prevent the recipient from infecting others. It’s not to protect the recipient from others, it’s to protect others from the recipient.

(Now it is true that an actual vax helps slow the spread of the disease. I know you can sometimes transmit a disease if vaxed, but it’s more difficult if you don’t actually don’t catch it. But I am not talking about the side-benefit of a real vax; I’m talking about what they think of THIS treatment, where, apparently the only benefit it confers is to prevent people from transmitting it.)

Under those circumstances, they can consider you selfish for not wanting to protect others. After all you refuse to take a treatment that will prevent others from catching the disease from you. And, indeed, they do consider you “selfish” and not in the positive way that Ayn Rand used the term.

But it’s yet another one of those things where ONE non-compliant individual ruins it for everyone else–at least, that’s what they think it is. ONE untreated person could infect the entire human race, because they aren’t protected from him.

Never mind that this is not what a vaccine is supposed to be doing. If you assume that the motherf*cking toilet licker in front of you shrieking about how you’re Satan Incarnate for not being jabbed believes that the sole purpose of the treatment is to prevent the recipient from spreading the disease–not to prevent the recipient from catching it–suddenly his behavior makes sense, at least based on what he believes (and you can’t expect anyone to behave in accordance with things they don’t believe).

So perhaps the best way to argue with these people is to simply point out calmly that a vaccine (their word) is supposed to protect the recipient from those with the disease [which of course we say] not prevent them from giving it to other people [identify their false premise and face it head on] they might actually feel like they’re being argued with, rather than talked past.

If you don’t confront their actual premise, arguing with them can accomplish nothing.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Kamala Harris has a new nickname since she finally went west from DC to El Paso Texas: Westward Hoe.

Lawyer Appeasement Section

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

1. No food fights
2. No running with scissors.
3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.
5a. If you actually want the gun to be loaded, like because you’re checking out a bump in the night, then it’s empty.
6. Rule two of gun safety: Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy.
7. Rule three: Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire.
8. Rule the fourth: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

(Hmm a few extras seem to have crept in.)

The James Webb Space Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a likely source of future developments in astrophysics. That thirty part series just concluded was historical developments in physics (with a healthy dollop of chemistry and astronomy to go along with it), but this column is about how we are going to do future developments.

JWST will be a big part of it.

That is, of course, if things go well. They’ve already gone over budget and longer than scheduled. But a LOT of things can still go wrong.

A couple of weeks ago I read that it was finally supposed to launch today, the 18th of December. Then I checked again as I wrote last week’s post and the launch date had been slipped to the 22nd, this time because of issues with the booster. (Thursday the 16th: It has now slipped to the 24th and it says “not earlier than” so clearly they expect to slip it again.)

That must be the 1,432,491,315th schedule slip for this project, though someone will no doubt tell me I miscounted slightly. I probably forgot one from back in 2015.

In any case once it launches, the telescope is not out of the woods!!! It must move to a location well beyond any ability to send people to repair it, and then literally hundreds of mechanical devices have to work perfectly as the telescope deploys. They ground team that has to manage this process (to the extent that it can, rather than watching helplessly if something goes wrong) is sweating bullets.

They remember Hubble, whose mirror didn’t have the right curve, which was made useful–gloriously so–by Space Shuttle astronauts retrofitting it with “glasses.” If that, or some similar thing requiring “on the spot” repair happens to JWST, they are Shit Out of Luck because we can’t send people to where JWST will be.

And they remember the Galileo spacecraft sent to Jupiter, whose main antenna didn’t deploy because some widget stuck in place. The spacecraft could collect data…but sending it back to Earth was very difficult because the backup antenna was much smaller, with lower gain.

About a month after launch, we’ll know if it all deployed. Until then, reloaders might just want to hang around the ground crew to catch some of those bullets.

What Is It, And Why Does It Matter?

OK, so what IS the James Webb Space Telescope?

This thing looks like a radio dish antenna on some sort of weird four-deck toboggan, but it’s actually an infrared telescope. It will be sensitive to light from a wavelength of 600 nm all the way to 28,300 nm. (A nm is a nanometer, one billionth of a meter.) This is basically the lower half of the visible range (600nm to about 800nm), and then way down into the infrared.

This is exactly the sort of thing we will need to see further back in time, looking at galaxies and the first stars, the sorts of phenomena we think happened more than 13 billion years ago. Those things are simply redshifted too far for Hubble (which is quoted as only going to 1000 nm wavelength, but I’ve seen other things that indicate it can see further into the infrared) to even see.

Being able to see very early galaxies will shed some light on the question of how they develop into the shapes we’re used to seeing today (spirals, ellipticals, and so on.)

It will also be helpful looking for colder objects much closer to us, like extrasolar planets, debris disks, and Kuiper belt objects similar to Pluto, only much further out. Those debris disks will help answer the nagging questions about planetary system formation.

And it’s quite likely that JWST will be able to look at existing planetary systems and provide a lot of data there as well. If it’s able to detect oxygen atmospheres, that could even be a sign of life Out There.

I haven’t done a post on extrasolar planets, largely because when they were seen it wasn’t really a surprise. (It’d have been much more surprising if no extrasolar planetary systems had been found.) Except that some things we saw were indeed surprising. Perhaps some future Saturday.

OK, so let me describe the telescope itself.

The mirror is 6.5 meters–about 21 feet–across, and it’s made of those gold-colored hexagons. They’re actually gold-plated beryllium (and beryllium was chosen in large part because it is extremely light). Compare to Hubble’s single 7 foot mirror. This thing is designed to capture a lot of light. Or actually, it’s designed to capture as much very faint light as possible, to make up for it being faint. (That’s the ultimate reason to make telescopes larger. Their main purpose isn’t magnification, it’s capturing as much light from faint objects as possible.)

Any spacecraft has to fit inside the “fairing” (the cylindrical or conical compartment at the nose of the rocket), and 21 feet is wider than any fairing out there. Thus the three hexagons on the left, and the three on the right, are actually going to be folded back and will unfold in space. That’s just one of the many mechanical elements that has to work perfectly, Out There.

Since this telescope is designed to work in the infrared, there are a couple of important considerations that mean we can’t just stick the thing into low earth orbit (LEO) like the Hubble Space Telescope is. The first is that the sun, moon, and earth all glow in the infrared range. I don’t just mean that the earth and moon reflect infrared light like they do visible light from the sun, I mean that they themselves glow in infrared. Black body radiation means everything glows at some frequency. You glow in infrared, too. Night vision goggles work because they can see people (literally) glow in the dark.

So we do not want the moon and earth in the field of view; compared to the faint objects this telescope is designed to see, those will be zillion candlepower searchlights. So the idea is to put the telescope at the Earth Sun L2 point.

This is a point about four times as far away as the moon, but directly opposite of the sun (as seen from the earth). So the Sun, Earth, and JWST will all be on a straight line. JWST will actually orbit the sun, not the Earth, a bit further out from the sun than Earth is.

If it’s further out, won’t it orbit more slowly?

Under normal circumstances, that would be true, but if the spacecraft has both the earth and the sun in the same direction, it feels the gravitation from both at the same time, and in the same direction, so it will behave as if it were orbiting a slightly more massive body than the sun is, and that will speed it up. At a certain precise distance from the earth, it works out that the satellite will also orbit in one year, even though its orbit is larger. This only works, though, if it’s right on the extended line from the sun to the earth.

Here’s a GIF (not to scale) showing the sun and earth, and objects at all five Lagrange points. L2 is the one of interest here.

Note that at L2, the three obnoxious sources of infrared interference are always on the same side of the spacecraft (the moon will be fairly close to the earth, closer than L2 is). So it always has most of the sky to look at.

It will actually orbit about L2, in a ring perpendicular to the plane of Earth’s orbit (as shown in the video below).

But it will be four times further away than any astronaut has ever gone, and that was back in 1972 as part of Apollo. We are not going to be sending astronauts up to fix this thing if it goes FUBAR, like we could with Hubble.

It’s bad enough that we have to hope those mirrors unfold, and that then we can get them all aligned precisely to behave as one big mirror. (We have telescopes on earth that work like that–no more big, one-piece mirrors like at Palomar.) But then we have to deploy the heat shield. That’s the four layer toboggan in the diagram above.

Why does it need a heat shield?

In order to function properly, the telescope must be cold. 50K or 370 below zero Fahrenheit. That’s because if it’s any warmer than that the telescope itself will emit infrared radiation that would interfere with its observations.

This might confuse you. After all, it’s beneficial when walking around outside at night to have a headlamp on. Why not have the telescope illuminate what it’s looking at? Well, in the first place, what it’s looking at will be billions of light years away, so the illumination won’t reach it in our lifetimes and won’t matter a bit even if it did. (In fact, the illumination will probably never reach those distant galaxies; they’ve moved further away since they emitted the light we’re hoping to see, and are probably unreachable now even in principle.)

And in the second place, we’re not talking about a headlamp glowing, we are talking about the sensor itself glowing. Imagine if your eyelids, your corneas, your irises, and the very fluid inside your eyeballs was glowing brightly. And on top of this your retina were glowing brightly. In reality. the eye prevents most light from hitting the retina, just admitting enough to create the focused image–it cannot work, otherwise. But if light is coming from inside the eyeball, well, you’d be blind.

That four-layered toboggan is a heat shield; it’s made up of four layers of very thin reflectorized plastic that should act to prevent sunlight from heating the spacecraft. But it has to unroll and deploy into tight sheets that aren’t touching each other. And in certain ground-based tests, that thin film tore, which caused years of delay as they worked to fix that problem.

So those sheets will face the sun. On the underside of the sheets, not very visible in the picture, are solar panels, the downlink antenna, and so on. The solar panels will use the sunlight to power the JWST, and of course the antenna is there so we can download data and upload commands.

So here’s another picture of JWST showing the underside. This is the side that will face the sun, and Earth.

The Sun (and Earth) facing side of JWST. Note the antenna in the center.
This picture is apparently at least twelve years old, which gives you an idea of how long this thing has been in the pipeline.

All of this has to deploy perfectly a million miles away…and that’s on top of the spacecraft actually having to reach its destination without the (comparatively simple, but still literally rocket science) rocketry going haywire.

I took a couple of classes on engineering things for space, not nearly enough to be qualified to work on something like this, but I do remember having them beat it into our heads to make the mission as simple as possible. The simpler it is the fewer things that can go wrong, and a mistake is very expensive.

Hundreds of things must go right once the spacecraft has launched. The complete unpacking and deployment should take about three weeks. Then the telescope has to cool.

This video claims a total of six months from launch, to doing work. Most of that time will be taken up with calibration and mirror alignment after the spacecraft “unfolds” in space. But as you watch this video keep in mind that all of the mechanical motions you see have to happen flawlessly, with nothing getting “stuck.”

It has been tested in labs on Earth, but those laboratories can’t duplicate everything in the space environment, and there’s always the chance that the last lab test of some part was the last time it’s going to work before it breaks.

That is why they are sweating bullets. Successfully launching the thing will only be the beginning of operational worries, and it’s the last time we will have full physical control of it.

A Long Road

The James Webb Space Telescope is actually a collaboration between NASA, the Canadian Space Agency, and the European Space Agency. In fact, it will be launched from Kourou, in South America, which is the ESA’s launch facility. (It was shipped there recently under high security and secrecy.)

This telescope was first conceived in 1996. Twelve years later it passed its preliminary design review. In 2010 it passed another review indicating that as designed, it would achieve its mission. Launch was tentatively scheduled for 2015.

By 2010 it was suffering cost overruns (insert surprised face here) that were forcing cuts in other programs. (This is a high-priority item!) Add a lot of NASA-typical scheduling delays, and the JWST finally left California on a boat bound for French Guiana in late September of this year. The US share of the cost of building the thing was almost nine billion dollars.

And now we get to see if that money will pay off, or whether we’ll be looking at a very expensive failure.

If it does work well, it will advance our understanding of the universe by leaps and bounds. This must be an exciting (and nervewracking) time to be an astronomer or astrophysicist.

So Who Was James Webb?

Personally, I think a better name for this telescope would be for William Herschel who, after all, discovered infrared light. However, he also discovered Uranus (and tried to name it for a historic-level asshole, George III), so perhaps they’ll name a Uranus orbiter (not, so far as I know, even in planning stages right now) after him instead. That would work.

James Webb was the administrator of NASA from 1961-1968; in other words he oversaw the agency during the days of Mercury and Gemini, and the start of the Apollo program. He left shortly before the first manned Apollo flight…but had already had to deal with the aftermath of the tragic Apollo 1 fire. (Remember the names Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger B. Chaffee, the three astronauts who died in that fire on January 27, 1967.)

Before he was at NASA, he served as Undersecretary of State from 1949-1952.

The “Next Generation Space Telescope” was renamed for James Webb in 2002.

Webb is an attempted target of “cancel culture.” Apparently while at State, he was active in an attempt to purge homosexuals from the department, so there have been a recent barrage of suggestions to rename the JWST, even including Harriet Tubman as a suggestion. A less ridiculous suggestion would be to name it after Sally Ride, who at least had something (quite a bit in fact) to do with space exploration.

With that current meat puppet in the White House, strings being pulled by every brand of leftist turd there is, who knows if anything will come of it. The other countries who are involved would probably have to approve a name change since they are footing part of the bill. I could see them maybe approving changing it to another NASA pioneer or scientist, but not Harriet Tubman.

Bonus Section: How Big Is the Universe?

The short answer is: Who knows?

We literally cannot know the answer to this question, because we simply cannot see anything further than 13.8 billion light years away; the light hasn’t had time to reach us. And you can subtract a few hundred thousand years from that as the Cosmic Microwave Background was generated that many years after the big bang.

Scientists talk of the “observable universe” for that reason. The entire universe is at least as big as the observable universe, but we don’t know if it’s one inch larger…or trillions of light years, or perhaps even infinitely large.

But it’s a mistake to figure the observable universe has a radius of 13.8 billion light years. Because since the light from the CMB and early stars and galaxies was created, they have continued to move away from us. By the time you account for this, the things we can (in principle) see today are now located within a sphere 92 billion light years across. And the items furthest away are already receding at a speed higher than that of light, which means that even though we can, today, see the light they emitted in the past, the light they are emitting today won’t reach us, ever.

If light speed is the speed limit, how is it that these things can be receding from us faster than light?

It’s true that you cannot move through space faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, but space itself can certainly stretch faster than that. Since it’s uniformly stretching, objects far enough apart will see the distance between them rise faster than light speed.

There are suggestions that the (total) universe must be at least 250 times the size of the observable universe; if I recall correctly this is from the error margins on the measurements that show space is flat. If it’s not quite flat but in fact is very slightly curved, our measurement method wouldn’t detect it; this comes from considering how curved it could be and still not be detected to be curved.)

My personal suspicion is that it’s infinite, but it’s very possible that we won’t ever know for certain.

China is in the White House

Since Wednesday, January 20 at Noon EST, the bought-and-paid for His Fraudulency Joseph Biden has been in the White House. It’s as good as having China in the Oval Office.

Joe Biden is Asshoe

China is in the White House, because Joe Biden is in the White House, and Joe Biden is identically equal to China. China is Asshoe. Therefore, Joe Biden is Asshoe.

But of course the much more important thing to realize:

Joe Biden Didn’t Win
