• @VigilantFox - ALARMING: “Sudden” and “unexpected” deaths have almost DOUBLED since the rollout of the so-called COVID-19 vaccines, according to obituary database. “At this point, a young person dying unexpectedly, to me, unfortunately, it is the vaccine until proven otherwise,” says Dr. @PierreKory. (video)
• @JimFergusonUK - Mass Scale protests across the European Continent as millions begin to push back against the Globalists and their attacks on the farmers. Climate scam, Net Zero and Carbon and Nitrogen reducing hoaxes are being used to bankrupt farmers so the globalists can control the food supplies. Obey or you don't eat. Its time to resist. (pic)
• @wendyp4545 - Breaking News: $40 million is probably the tip of the iceberg FIVE Ukrainian officials charged with stealing $40M in war funds: ‘Most corrupt country in the world!’
• @wideawake_media - Australian broadcaster, Alan Jones, utterly schools a panel of climate zealots on the reality of the #ClimateScam. "CO2 is 0.04% of the atmosphere, and human beings are responsible for 3% of that 0.04%... It's like saying: 'There's a granule of sugar on the Harbour Bridge. Clean the bridge up, it's dirty'." (video) "What happens when you exceed your carbon limit, and you discover that your ability to buy and sell is suddenly cut off?"

• @EndWokeness - Primary any Republican that signs onto this Senate Amnesty Deal. This "deal" allows 5,000-8,500 illegals to cross per day before DHS starts turning people back. 8,500 x 365 = 3,102,500 per year. This is on top of the 8 million illegals who crossed already under Biden. If DHS can enforce border security after 8,500 illegals cross per day, it can do enforcement after 1 illegal crosses.
• @PierreKory - Something about the COVID vaccines is causing them to sicken people in direct proximity to recently vaccinated individuals. This article has the science on how that could be possible and covers what people are doing to protect themselves.

OpenVAERS:

• VAERS US COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports. 1,000,725 Reports(+2,808 from prior week) Through December 29th, 2023.

SKirsch.com:

• Using the MGH numbers with our own VAERS queries, we have 247 cases per million doses from the MGH study divided by 5.97 cases per million doses from VAERS. 247/5.97 = 41. This suggests that the VAERS under-reporting factor (URF) is 41X.

As I have reported, on January 31, Nikki Haley will be in Miami and Palm Beach, Florida having campaign fundraisers with some of @JoeBiden’s donors. Guess who is also going to be in Miami and Palm Beach on January 30th for fundraisers? Joe Biden. And they say Blackrock isn’t pulling the strings. The receipts say otherwise.
• @kylenabecker - The Biden regime's attack on Liquified Natural Gas has nothing to do with the absurd fight against "climate change." LNG is relatively low on "carbon emissions." This is an attack on the U.S. economy. It is an attack on national security. And it's an attack on Texas.

• @wideawake_media - Romanian MEP, Cristian Terheș, blows the "man-made global warming" hoax completely out of the water, in the EU parliament: "CO2 is a gas that currently represents 0.041% of the whole atmosphere. Despite this small [percentage], for decades now, campaigns are ran to make people believe that man-made CO2 is the cause of climate change." (video) President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, Neel Kashkari: CBDC doesn't solve any actual problems, other than enabling central bankers to monitor all transactions, and deduct taxes directly from people's accounts. Unelected head of the EU, Ursula von der Leyen, asserts the need for an EU-wide digital ID, "that any citizen can use anywhere in Europe, to do anything from paying your taxes to renting a bicycle". But once your digital ID has been connected to the EU's incoming CBDC (which is programmable), you won't be able to rent a bicycle, or participate in society at all, if the unelected technocrats running the EU decide you haven't been a good enough boy or girl, for whatever reason. (video) Former US government insider, Marc Morano, summarises how unelected globalists are using the "human-induced climate change" hoax as a pretext to deliberately collapse the food supply, so people will have no choice but to eat insects and lab-grown "meat". "This is the intentional collapse of food, agriculture [and] energy... We are facing a situation where they're creating intentional chaos and scarcity, to force us to have to buy insects [and] lab-grown meat." (video)

• @TexasLindsay_ UNBELIEVABLE—SDNY Judge Lewis Kaplan who infamously dismissed Prince Andrew's s•xual assault claims made by one of Jeffery Epstein’s human tr•fficking victims—is the SAME judge that presided over E. Jean Carrol vs. Trump’s defamation case—as well as the now infamous SBF/FTX trial. Federal Judge Lewis Kaplan was also appointed by Bill Clinton. I’m now 99.9% sure this post is why the CDC blocked me. The funny thing is, this data is from the CDC website, I just made the visual.
