What’s the saying ‘revenge is a dish best served cold’? I need something far, far worse to befall those who planned and effected the covid Great Lie but this appetiser will have to initially act as a nauseating starter.
An offshoot of that issue is free advertising for a well known channel. I’m not going to watch it, though!
I don’t watch it. I think it is a loathsome programme of wannabes and hasbeens. I have every sympathy for the insects, critters and animals who lose their life in the name of ‘entertainment’ and sheer disdain of the grasping ‘celebrities’.
Morning Ellie, I’m with you on all that. I don’t watch TV or indeed have one anyway.
They used to be called z-list celebrities, but I suppose we can’t use that now in case they think it’s pro-Russian…! LOL…..
I never watch it but I hope he is demeaned into oblivion….maybe he might choke on a mealy bug or something? We can always hope!!.
I should think it’s people who’ve been vaxxed that need to be worried about 5G more than any connection with Covid the “virus”. I think this is another conspiracy theory that may well prove to be true given what many scientists have reported finding in these vials all over the world, and in people’s blood. I can see these people being vindicated because even I used to think that was a conspiracy too far and thought it sounded totally wackadoo but I’m now at a place where I discount nothing.
Here’s a recent talk with Mike Yeadon ( 40 mins ). Paul Alexander introduces him then he just talks but it’s very interesting. Among other things he mentions he doesn’t even think an actual virus was released and he gives his rationale for thinking that. Covid didn’t behave like any other respiratory virus, according to the data. Then there’s the computer models…
https://rumble.com/v1kigj1-drs.-mike-yeadon-and-paul-alexander-fraud-of-the-covid-pandemic.html
A very clear warning from Dr Yeadon about what we are facing. Do listen to it through to the end. What has happened to our democracies , our societies and our prosperity since the start of the pandemic would have been thought implausible and fantastical a few years ago, yet the elites who designed it did tell us what they were going to do, if only we had looked and listened. More is on its way, and the proof of this is exactly in what we have experienced.
I did listen to the end but it’s a shame it ended abruptly while he was mid-sentence. Whenever I hear a theory which I think sounds way too far-fetched I remind myself that had somebody gone back in time from the present and told my 2019 self what lay in store; the vax passes, the lockdowns etc etc, I would’ve given them a wide berth thinking they were delusional. I would have written anybody off as a crackpot just a few years ago. That’s also why I thought Yeadon was off his rocker, despite him being an extremely intelligent man with obvious extensive experience in his field, when he was speaking about depopulation since the very beginning. I think the thought was so way out there and abhorrent that I just couldn’t conceive of such an agenda being possible. Given the irrefutable evidence to support this theory I have done a complete 180 on that now as well.
Now I’m reading about synthetic spike protein, synthetic LNPs, ( perhaps why no biologic matter has been detected in many of these vials independently tested ) hydrogels which self-crystallize into nano-structures and antennas, MAC addresses being picked up by Bluetooth, magnetic people….it’s like science fiction is morphing into science fact right under our noses. But a person can only digest so much weirdness in one go so I think people have to come around to what’s really happening at their own pace.
Thanks, Mogs, I’ll give this a listen and also the Jerm Warfare podcast featuring Jon Rappoport which was recommended by MY. I listened to Mike Yeadon on CHD Tea Time yesterday and he didn’t pull any punches. He has now moved away completely from his previous thinking about Covid. It was grim listening but we need these ‘wake up’ wake up calls from time to time to remind us that we are actually engaged in a battle. That this is not something that is happening elsewhere to other people but is happening right here and now to us. I still remain optimistic despite the bad news because I still believe, whether rightly or wrongly, in people. Also, we are building networks and connecting with like-minded souls. TPTB think we’re all incapable of defiance and resistance but I think that is their Achilles Heel – they underestimate the power of truth and the strength and courage of people who are quite literally fighting for their lives. Neil Oliver does a lovely way of framing how I think at times and I remember what he said recently which was that all these things they have waiting for us down the pipeline towards the 2030 agenda are not real. They’re just ideas floating in the ether. We have the power to change that narrative.

Hopefully you will see this Mogs. You are like a will o’ the wisp lately.
I don’t know what you’re implying but as long as I’m not like Evil Edna then I’ll take it!
Thanks, I’ll have a gander later when I have more time.
No offence intended. Did you see the Vigano article I found? Posted a couple of days ago.
Will o’ the wisp – here one minute, gone the next.
Oh I see. Haha! Yes I did, thanks. He’s such a hero isn’t he? I saw a video of him calling everybody to unite and fight this New World Order wickedness. He calls a spade a spade and knows what’s going on, and with the child abuse element too. Very inspiring man.
An inspiring man indeed.
It is very sad how the Catholic Church has been hollowed out.
Thanks Mogs. Well worth anybody’s time. Dr Mike Yeadon has been a saint throughout all this. I believe he nails the story.
This is a tadge off-topic, so apologies, but it’s critical that the role of social media is properly understood. It is social media, and to a lesser extent comment sections (yep, I know), that have played a pivotal role in the elites understanding of the populace. Social media data is easy to mine, and from that data it’s easy to build a fairly accurate picture of an individuals character; more importantly, social media makes it possible to paint a very accurate picture of a persons compliance and likely behaviour. It is this knowledge that enables their understanding of group behaviour of the masses and is key to everything they have undertaken. Without the peer-pressure of social media conformity, the general acceptance for political direction would be discussed and debated down the pub and at the dinner table – an environment that doesn’t evoke such feelings of fear and compliance. Even the shutout of alternative opinions in MSM is a result of knowing how the general public will behave. It is digitised communication that is their superpower. Ours is a bloody-minded refusal to drink at their table. Make no mistake, these people will hate us. The streets must be where we show our mettle and, by doing so, show others what it means to be human.
Good words, FL. Yes, I agree they have the whip-hand with regards to digital communications where they can algorithm the data to death and find all the info they need to do what they do. They can cut and dice it up and come up with newer strategies by which to coerce, manipulate and control us. I’m sure they trawl through our comments here and maybe they even know who we are behind our various usernames and where we live and what our bank account details are and more. That is highly alarming. But they don’t know everything about us, not yet, and they underestimate us and the power of conviction when backed by the truth. I feel this will be their undoing. They are way too arrogant to take the humble mumblings of the populace seriously enough. They better watch out – us humans will not go meekly into the dark.
“us humans will not go meekly into the dark.”
Or as Dylan Thomas put it –
Do not go gently in to that good night.
Internet 3,0. blockchain,. XRP etc may offer us some hope by keeping our online activities ptivate and stopping the data-mining and cencorship.
“It seems the former Health Secretary will go to any lengths to rehabilitate his image with a public disgusted by his lockdown hypocrisy, says Allison Pearson in the Telegraph.”
Says the person who supported the introduction of vaccine passports. These people are disgusting she needs to get her own house in order before she starts criticising others of the same ilk. A grovelling apology would be a start followed by her craven excuse of a newspaper recognising and reporting all the experimental gene therapy treatment deaths and injuries that have occurred and demanding a public enquiry. Then and only then might we start some kind of rehabilitation for her.
Epi, where did you get the idea that Allison Pearson “supported the introduction of vaccine passports”?
The opposite is true. Allison Pearson has always OPPOSED vaccine passports, and hasn’t been afraid to say so.
She therefore doesn’t need “to get her own house in order” nor “some kind of rehabilitation”, nor is she “disgusting”, nor is “a grovelling apology” necessary, at least not from her.
Hi gkig
Did you ever listen to Planet Normal? If so you would know that when the coercion started for everyone to have the death jab she was all for having vax passports to push people to get the experimental gene therapy treatment. I stopped listening to her podcast after that.
Epi, where is your evidence that Allison Pearson “was all for having vax passports to push people to get the experimental gene therapy treatment”?
Your memory isn’t evidence, your memory may be faulty and you’re confusing Allison Pearson with someone else.
Allison Pearson has always been very outspoken in opposing vaccine passports. Your claim isn’t plausible.
In December 2021, Allison Pearson wrote in The Telegraph:
“Please don’t call the MPs who voted against vaccine passports ‘Tory rebels’. In my book, those upstanding men and women are the true Conservatives. Rather, it is those who pushed through this repellently un-British measure, with the help of the Labour Party, who are the traitors to our philosophy.”

Good morning all.
A very interesting MD4CE meeting yesterday. An engineer has gone to the source death certificates data in his state of Massachusetts to drill down into what has been happening regarding deaths since 2020. From his work – thousands of hours worth – he’s been able to show that the headline aggregated data hides the true picture of death data & that the connection between all of the deaths is the blood post toxic bioweapon injection.
Using this data he has filed a civil case against State employees & individual medics who certified deaths. It is quite an eye opener & all points to fraud. The Q&As afterwards were insightful, especially as we have a pathologist amongst our ranks.
This is a link to his substack & I will post the link to the recording once it’s up, should be up by tomorrow.

A cracking post from Anna de Buisseret re the call for an amnesty article. Not only does she call a spade a spade, she backs it up with the law.
I have so much respect for her.
Pandemic Amnesty???
“Covidians want amnesty
Now that the truth is out about covid, those smug and self-righteous pushers of vaccines that did not vaccinate and masks that didn’t work are demanding we just forget about the whole thing.
Emily Oster of The Atlantic wants to declare Pandemic Amnesty, which would forgive her and the rest of the Faucists who cheered the use of the power of the state to shut down the economy and force people to take shots or lose their jobs.”
“People lost their jobs over this.
They jailed a man for surfing when no one else was around.
People died alone because the federal government banned hospital visits.”
“Janice Dean tweeted, “Oh no, @ProfEmilyOster. Many of us won’t ever forgive or forget.
Especially when it comes to the seniors who died in nursing homes after leaders flooded their residences with covid patients and never told us or protected them.
They knew better.
We deserve justice first.”
And she tweeted, “Thanks for mentioning the thousands of dead nursing home seniors after several governors decided to flood their nursing homes with covid infected patients.
Oh wait. You didn’t.”
Other tweets are here (https://twitter.com/LeanSanchez1776/status/1587089629764878337).
“Please bro, I know we fired people from their jobs and exiled them from society bro, we didn’t know bro, I know we arrested old women for feeding pigeons and trampled people with horses and raided their homes but we were misinformed bro, we were only following orders bro.”
“I lost my job over this lie.”
“I had to turn down multiple jobs last year because of proof of vaccination requirements.
Hell, I had to turn down two recently for the same reason.
I am not in a forgiving mood.”
“”I liked the verbal and physical assaults at the supermarkets.”
Elon Musk tweeted, “The amount of times I was asked to wear a masked or yelled at to put my mask above my nose during a flight…”
This response from someone else was pure gold, “Forgiveness is the right approach. I mean, genuine contrition on the part of those who were wrong would be a great start.”
“Maybe we can all dig up our dead relatives so we can have a proper funeral for them now.”
“Took us almost two years to have a family get together for my dad and he died in October 2020.
Meanwhile I got to watch my PM fly all over the planet and party it up.
That’s fuckin’ unforgivable.”
“Would of been nice to hold my newborn child while my wife was undergoing lifesaving surgery.”
“If I spoke my honest opinions about these tyrants, even Elon would ban me.”
That one made me laugh.
“Not only did Oster refuse to apologize, she refused to say it won’t happen again.”

—————////
My message to those who are asking for amnesty:
To be forgiven, you have to first give an honest apology to all those you’ve harmed: an apology which rings true and with no caveats.
Next you have to genuinely repent of your harmful actions and omissions to act to prevent harm:
you need to be able to openly admit all your harmful actions and omissions and accept your personal responsibility for these and accept accountability for the harm you have caused others.
Then you need to make a public offer of how you are going to make amends: including what redress and compensation you propose to make for your victims.
Finally, you need to promise that you won’t repeat the harm that you’ve caused: you agree to be investigated and placed on a remedial training course to ensure you don’t repeat your actions and omissions in future.
Only then can you be in a position to ask for any amnesty.
Until you go through the hard soul searching yourself and acknowledge the harm you’ve caused others, apologise and make amends – you are in no position whatsoever to be calling for an amnesty.
It’s going to fall on very deaf ears…..

I am so glad she’s received a lot of flack for her ridiculous amnesty suggestion. Unsurprisingly society at large and the millions of individuals who were negatively impacted and devasted by these China-inspired restrictions are not in a rush to forgive and forget. You can’t just memory-hole totalitarian treatment like this and expect to draw a line under it and have people move on. And I’m yet to hear any governments publicly declare they will rule out any further restrictions or admit that they made one of the biggest cock-ups in living memory. I say “one of” because these sodding toxic jabs are just being allowed to go on and on being administered and pushed on people, and they will continue to do so, with the numbers of injured and dead on the adverse event reporting systems all obligingly growing in tandem. People need to demonstrate some genuine compassion and humanity before they can expect anyone to give their forgiveness. I like what the lawyer has to say but it’s just too raw to consider now and times are too uncertain. We can’t relax, we are all merely in limbo, awaiting the next assault.
Anna is telling us the law. None of us outside of law school are taught it. If we knew the law & our rights it would have been a lot harder for the totalitarian diktats to have been successful.
By understanding the legal definition of amnesty & the implications of enabling an amnesty, we have more power to oppose it lawfully rather with the very valid raw emotions. Raw emotions can be gaslit, law is more difficult to rebut.

‘Dutch finance minister proposes increased financial surveillance’. We need to use cash as much as possible.
Telegraph reports on excess death crisis, a step in the right direction, but fails to mention any possible link to covid vaccines, clearly several steps short of what is required
