The axiom of “the law of unintended consequences” has never been more appropriate than right now. In the background, as you are reading, there is a looming storm that is going to soon surface in the food supply chain, and the regional vaccine passports are going to make things worse.
To understand what is happening, it becomes necessary to give a more specific background on how the things work inside the supply chain that has been disrupted by government intervention. This is complex, but I hope to make it understandable for the average person.
How do we avoid supply chain chaos? My response seems counterintuitive to those who do not understand this unique issue.
Effective immediately, or at least as soon as possible, every venue that can provide food on a commercial basis must be removed from all COVID regulations, including vaccine passports.
Restaurants, school lunchrooms, cafeterias, industrial kitchens, hotels, bars, food trucks and every possible venue for the delivery of freshly cooked meals must immediately be reactivated, and all terms and conditions for visiting those venues, like “vaccine passports”, must be cancelled quickly.
If they are not, and worse, if the restrictions expand beyond current status, there is going to be a worsening retail food crisis as the total food supply chain begins to collapse even further.
Beginning around 1990, the retail food industry, the supermarket and grocery business, began a process for automated replenishment. Walmart’s introduction into the grocery business was the trigger, as the massive internal supply chain created by the Arkansas company was the leading edge in growth and retail sales. Walmart began selling groceries, cheap groceries, by using their supply chain efficiencies to undercut prices within the retail food industry. It was a seismic change.
Soon other regional supermarket chains began to modify their ordering, purchasing and buying offices to add inventory efficiencies into their operational systems. If they did not adapt their inventory management, they would lose competitive price position.
As years passed, technology in the inventory management system became more and more important, as the thin margins inside the retail supermarket system looked to capitalize on automated replenishment. This is the beginning of “Just in Time” inventory within the retail food distribution network.
Computers began to make forecasts for products and shelves were replenished through a complex system of automated orders. Years of multi-SKU data was assembled to create forecasts for future orders.
Instead of clerks, managers and supermarket operators ordering products from store level, slowly those same people became responsible for only recording the amount of an existing item currently on the shelf. The computer algorithm -filled with historic data on consumer purchasing- would forecast the need and place the order. This system formed the cornerstone of automated replenishment, as computers told the buying offices how much of every item would be needed, and when.
Billions were invested by the industry, as a whole, to develop this complex replenishment system. Within the process of just in time ordering (JIT), slowly computers replaced humans in the ordering process. Retail stores no longer housed massive amounts of inventory. Warehouses that feed the stores no longer housed massive amounts of inventory awaiting the orders from the stores. Warehouses even changed their terminology to “retail distribution centers“, as they became hubs for distribution and not holding centers for inventory.
Years and years of refinements to this process continued as the computers learned in ever more granular detail how to trigger replenishment orders based on checkout scan data. Tens-of-millions continued to be invested in the latest tech software and scanning systems that would thin down the supply chain at each step.
In essence, the timeline from field to fork was also being reduced, as the total food supply chain inventory management system refined each year becoming more and more efficient at recognizing purchasing patterns and predicting sales.
The value inventory efficiency to the industry was great.
The cost of excess inventory to support sales was reduced, and the efficiencies of the Walmart purchasing, and supply chain excellence was being duplicated in every retailer.
Without excess inventory, the value of store inventory counted as “days on hand” was also reduced. This meant more profits for the retail outlets, as the overhead cost of their inventory was lowered.
Companies passed along these supply chain efficiencies in the form of lower prices to the consumer. This was, in very direct measures, the Walmart influence in the retail food supply industry. All regional supermarket chains were duplicating the Walmart supply chain excellence, and that allowed them to compete on price.
Eventually, what was once seen as a Walmart competitive advantage, became an industry-wide way of doing business. The retail food supply chain for grocery outlets was structurally and permanently changed. Every retail outlet was/is using some form of just-in-time inventory management with automated replenishment based on computer forecasts for purchasing needs. However, there is a downside…. less inventory in the total system means less capacity to deal with increased demand.
This supply chain system is best understood in reverse:
♦ The data from retail scanned sales is shared backwards into the supply chains, with retail grocery stores sharing their scan data with suppliers. The suppliers like Kraft foods then know exactly how much anticipated product is needed, by which retailers, where and when.
♦ The suppliers and manufacturers then share that information backwards into the food processing sector. The processors of raw material food now know what products are needed by the branded suppliers.
♦ The processors then share that information backwards in the supply chain to their raw material providers. Those are the protein conglomerates and farming groups. This is also where Big Ag makes import/export decisions and controls the prices for their own profitability.
The contracted commercial farmers, cattlemen, fishermen etc., all know -or are instructed- roughly what crops, pork, beef, chickens, poultry, etc. will be needed in the following season to provide to the processors, who provide to the manufacturers, who provide to the suppliers, who provide to the distribution centers, who provide to the retail stores. This is the complex system known as the retail food supply chain.
As you can see from above, this complex inventory management system originates with historic data from the stores and travels throughout the supply chain providing users at each step to assemble the data that pertains to their role. This is like thousands of interconnected gears in a finely tuned machine, and this is NOT a system that can be interrupted without consequence.
CTH warned in March 2020 [LINK HERE], when government first suggested that all retail food establishments (restaurants, lunchrooms, hotels, cafeterias, etc.) should shut down due to the pandemic, that closing 60% of fresh food distribution would be catastrophic for the total food supply chain.
“A government cannot just shut down 30 to 50 percent of the way civil society feeds themselves, without planning and advanced preparation for an alternative. Those who ARE the alternative, the retail food grocers, need time to prepare themselves (and their entire logistical system) for the incredible impact. Without preparation this is a man-made crisis about to get a lot worse.” (LINK)
Those decisions in 2020 triggered a cascading sequence of events that has yet to be fully understood. {Go Deep}
For 30+ years, the highly complex and data driven retail food supply chain, the delivery vehicle for 40+ percent of total food available, has become increasingly refined. Unfortunately, like a finely tuned watch, those refinements also mean the supply chain is vulnerable to unforeseen changes in the system.
The government upended the total food supply system by shifting 25 to 40% more customers into the retail grocery supply chain for their food. The supply chain we just explained cannot handle that level of stress. Operational capacities are reached very quickly throughout the system, and even the packaging of increased demand is an issue. Suppliers for packaging also have capacity constraints.
Processors cannot process enough. Manufacturers cannot manufacture enough. Suppliers cannot supply enough. Distribution centers cannot distribute enough, and stores cannot stock enough.
The entire food delivery system is not designed for this and cannot reasonably be expected to adjust on this scale; it is just not feasible. We are seeing the cascading results of this in our supermarkets right now. People are starting to worry, and there is good reason to worry. {Go Deep}
This is where the vaccine mandate and mandatory vaccine passports make things worse. Even a small amount of excess demand right now is causing exponential problems for a system that is already beyond capacity. The system stressors, specifically the demand side, need to be reduced.
If just 10% of a population, within a metropolitan region of consumers, are blocked from restaurants or food venues because they are unvaccinated, they are going to put stress on the alternative, the grocery supply chain…. meaning, more empty shelves and cases. Those empty shelves impact the vaccinated and unvaccinated alike.
Restricting restaurant capacity, shutting food venues, closing school lunchrooms, shutting or restricting cafeterias or hotels, blocking venue access by vaccine restrictions, all of these have damaging unintended consequences to the food delivery system. We need every possible fresh food delivery system open for everyone…. and that needs to happen quickly.
Additionally, the trucker vaccine mandate -scheduled to go into effect for domestic freight haulers on January 22nd- needs to be cancelled fast.
If these mandates, COVID restrictions, passports and gateways continue as blocks in the system, it is very likely the shortages in the food supply chain will only worsen.
It is only going to take a few visits of worsening empty shelves before “national food security” panic becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
MASSACHUSETTS – BOSTON — Vaccinated state residents are now able to access a digital record of their COVID-19 vaccine history, including a scannable QR code, that could be stored on their smartphone and presented to businesses requiring immunizations for entry.
Gov. Charlie Baker’s administration is rolling out the “COVID-19 SMART Health Care” just as the city of Boston prepares for a new vaccine requirement to take effect at the end of the week in all restaurants, gyms and entertainment venues.
Boston is one of the few cities in the state to adopt a universal vaccine requirement for certain businesses. (read more)
I’ll be serving encore meaty lasagna and it’s to much food for me an my crew , so come on over let’s say 7 pm tomorrow 😁🤣
“Processors cannot process enough. Manufacturers cannot manufacture enough. Distribution centers cannot distribute enough, and stores cannot stock enough.”
And just like that, the PTB reenact the Holodomor, Act II.
Doncha just love these persistent rat b******s?
and a State Says no.
and starts the Retraining of the States within the Union.
And it all depends on the farmers delivering crops. Crops that are not pledged by futures contract or ravaged by insects or plagued with drought.
Not to mention Bill Gates is buying millions of acres of farm lands, to prevent Farmers from raising beef, hogs, and chickens. He wants man made meat. He does NOT want any grain, corn etc. grown to provide food either. The man is a millionaire without any common sense.
Worrying about Gates buying farmland is the very least of anyone’s worry’s. Over the years the amount of land the Government has set-aside by paying farmers not to farm the land makes Gates farm ownership look like a potted plant.

That’s billionaire, and he knows exactly what he’s doing.
Along with the globalists they are creating a famine.
They want the population to die off and be reduced for their other nefarious plan.
Ultimately they do not want any people alive in the western world.
They have plans to have only people that are accustomed to authority without question.
Labor conditioned people who unlike the west who have had it good and are soft, they will
Have an Asian race of people to colonize in the US, Aus, and UK where farmland is bountiful and the soil is rich.
China can barley feed their people because they have polluted their lands and waterways.
They want the US lower 48 states for the farmland.
It’s a plan of global enslavement.
But I thought this was all about a virus /S
Yup. China is already a big presence in Africa. They have plans for that continent also.
It’s not a lack of common sense it’s called “intent” as in the difference between manslaughter and murder.

Let’s not forget that right now is when most farmers have placed (and paid for) their orders for this year’s fertilizer. Not uncommon to see prices double that of a year ago. While fertilizer is only one of the many costs of production, it is a substantial one. If there simply isn’t enough money to make that total purchase right now, many will opt to simply plant less acreage and hope for a successful crop to make ends meet. We’re heading toward shortages next year starting at the very beginning of the food chain, not in the broken distribution system.
I live right in the middle of a 100-mile radius where 65% of the nations supply of fruits and vegetables are grown. I don’t know of one farmer who plans to plant one less acre this coming season.
Or put into our gas tanks!
Could this be interfering with delivery of goods?…….
Looks like a major source of failure to distribute food.
You would think this would be headline news!
It will be when there are destructive ‘food riots’ unfolding across the country.
A so-called “vaccine pass” will mean jack-squat to parents who are out “foraging” for food for their hungry children.
Nobody who values their life is not going to try stop a determined parent who needs to get food for their family.
Actually thats just it.
An encounter between two parents, each detirmined to take home food to their starving kids, is exactly how someone ends up dead.
Matt Bracken’s book on civil war in the cities was actually very good with safety and coping methods for those who can’t get out.
No kidding. If you’ve read Matt’s books, you might conclude he’s a time traveler from the future.
I saw a video posted by a guy who was photographing the breaking, quite by accident.

re “train burglaries”
Just another day in modern “negr0s gone wild” America
No wonder several Christmas deliveries never arrived.
Rail yards have never had good security. They need to beef it up.
In a million years – I could not have understood “looting trains” without your video. So this is who we are. This is what our society has allowed. LA’s DA is a Foster Parent to this example of men’s minds. I cannot imagine how being there will change you but thank you for the Real. We need to pray for justice, top down not bottom up.

Can add a new registry of religiously exempted employees to this cluster:
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/01/11/2021-28135/privacy-act-of-1974-system-of-records
This is standard. The WH mandated and agencies are required to report which results in new “systems of records.” It’s not racist and not nefarious- agencies that did not already have internal systems in place for tracking PHI/PII for mission-related functions (operations) must create a new system of records to legally retain the gathered information for reporting requirements. The only agencies likely not needing to post this info in the Federal Register will be the DOD, State Department, CIA, FBI, and others with frequent overseas travel and/or where vaccinations/medical health exams are regularly required. I saw the original article and it is click bait.
Just so you know:
DeWine of Ohio is the ultimate sniveling RINO.
His one term in the Senate must be the most undistinguished term in Senate history.
He is the annoying sycophant trying desperately to be one of the Cool Kids (i.e. a DEM)…and ends up being nothing but a Wannabe, despised by everyone except by the other pathetic, sycophantic RINO’S just like him.
“Sycophant,” by the way, is Ancient Greek for “honeysucker”…
…except “honey” was not really involved! 😉
“DeWine of Ohio is the ultimate sniveling RINO.”
Two words to challenge that assertion: Charlie Baker.
I’ll see your Charlie Baker and raise you a Pat Toomey.
No matter what he says, or does, “Charlie Brown” Baker has the luxury of hiding behind the ultimate RINO defense shield: the Veto-Proof-Majority. “Sorry, guys, you know I didn’t want to sign that massive, pork laden spending bill, but it would have passed anyway”*sniff*. Currently dems hold the edge 36/40 in the senate and 130/160 in the house. Why stand on principle when you can just go with the flow?………..
Do not count House or Senate seats by “R or D”; that is the ILLUSION.
Count by “Uniparty or Maga”; and you see the true nature of the battle before us, to address the festering cesspit that is Congress, the source of all the pollution destroying our Republic.
WE have MTG, Ghomert, Boerner,…MAYBE a few others like Andy Biggs,…but virtually none in leadership in the Senate, or House with Nunes effectively neutered.
In the days before Uni-party became a household term there was Bay State politics. R and D had meaning, but it didn’t matter much as the D’s have long held control. Used to be a bumper sticker common after Nixon’s fall from grace that said “don’t blame me, I’m from Massachusetts!“. See a map of the 1972 presidential election results for reference on that one.
a Sheriff in his state needs to step up.
and retrain OHIO on extreme federalism.
ownership to the closest proximity. war in every other attempt to tresspass.
Amen! A few sheriffs in rural counties refused to enforce any “mandates” right at the beginning of the chaos.
It should have been all the sheriffs in all 88 counties!
make sure this coming election WE ALL GET A GOOD SHERIFF IN!
In order to truly pursue extreme Federalism, A State needs to have; Governor, SoS, AG, Legislative majority, county DA’s Sheriffs and Police chiefs who are fully on board.
THATS a challenging task, to drive Rinos and Dems (Uniparty, all) out of those positions.
It really takes a United effort within a State, to stand up to the Feds and say “No!”.
Our county Sheriff and town Police Chief refused to enforce our county Health Director’s Covid orders in 2020. The county Health Director, a newly hired obese poster woman at high risk for Covid, went to the county Board of supervisors, complained and presented her officious fears to leverage herself. The Board quickly voted to demand the Sheriff and Chief follow her orders. The two men didn’t so they were fired for endangering the county.
Guy has the gall to be sending mail solicitations begging for money, even thought he’s not running for anything. Got one in the mail today. SOB even expected me to provide my own stamp for the return envelope.
He will be up for reelection for governor, Renacci is running against him in the primary.
I got the same mailer. I opened it and barely glanced at it. I saw the words, “grass roots”. As if!
Do you know anything about this Joe Blystone running for governor?
There is a flurry of support for him in the small towns and rural areas.
The Ohio GOP is rife with RINOs. It disgusts me. DeWine is just one of many.
Yup. I’ve heard all about DeWine from my brother who lives just East of Cleveland, in Chardon, Ohio. He would agree with your assessment.
That’s alright. The president will speak on the issue again tomorrow.
And some Republicans will send a tersely-worded letter.
More and bigger problems coming.

“Vaccine” mandates are going to be a further exasperation for the “Bad Guys”. More people are becoming aware of the possible danger associated with what really amounts to being a bioweapon. Who in their right-mind would take a “booster” at this juncture?
The People are going to realize the Government does not have the People’s health interest the Government’s priority. People in government including Politicians are facing a jail outcome. The jail outcome becomes more vivid to the “Bad Guys” each day.
until a State legislator steps up, and passes a law saying FU. this beating will continue.
Texas get on your people.
Florida, Lousiana, Georgia, Start the debate.
Do you not know any libs?
Yes and they are as dumb and stupid as you would expect a Libtard to be.
I have my own idea, why the Democrats are pushing shots so hard all the time. Biden (and his band of crooks) seem determined to ensure people get these shots. Several thousand have died, teen agers, athletes right now are dropping dead, small children etc. Yet, they have illegals flooding the border, NO shots for them, nor are they being testing for COVID. They are being shipped all over the US. Plus they are bringing in diseases not seen in this country before. So Biden and company are pushing US citizens to get shots, but NOT illegals. This really smells to me. So what do you think?
The shots are being pushed so hard by the Left because it helps prolong the Myth of the Pandemic. And they need to keep that going through this year’s election cycle to justify mail-in voting and all the democrat fraud that entails.
I think it sounds like an effective strategy for population replacement
But we’re shouted down if we even hint that there’s such a thing
But they handily got rid of the last of the WWII generation in nursing homes
… who tended to vote for conservatives and Republicans more than younger cohorts do
… and who were expensive, using too much costly healthcare at their advanced age
pesky, you understand
I was texting with a local person who told me all about local vaccine adverse reactions through clients with her business.
One client’s 14 year old son started having heart attacks, many of them.
21 year old had a “fender bender, air bag didn’t go off, said it was “mysterious” heart issue, died before the crash.
35 year old who got his booster is now seeing a cardiologist
One parent’s two college age children have both developed issues. The daughter played soccer all her life, suddenly had chest pains, tons of test and she has inflammation and blockage of a branch in her heart.
A friend now has suspected Crohns disesase symptoms, and the first question from the doctor was did you get the shot? 23 years old and will be getting a colonoscopy at the end of the month.
This was all texted to me from the mother of my son’s friend who is 2nd year Marine that is being discharged for not taking the vaccine. She can’t wait to get him home. I’ve mentioned about my son’s friend on here before. He’s still waiting to leave, he did complete these civilian classes.
Remember when autism started increasing dramatically, and they explained it was just cause they were diagnosing it more?
Parents said it was consistently soon after getting their first vax shots, but the “experts” dismissed that as “anecdotal”, SAID they looked at it and there was “nothing to it”!
Just like they are denying Covid complications.
Difference between Thalidomide of the 50’s and Vaxs of the 80’s?
In the 50’s the truth came out about thalidamide.
I’ve heard the stories also, but too many people are afraid to speak out. It’s like being in the “cool” club (God forbid anybody questions poison death shots) takes precedence over life and limb. Must be that mass formation psychosis in action.
NEVER, EVER SPEAK OF INJURY, VAX HESITATER! /s
They want them to be healthy breeders for future voters.
I wonder if any politicians and government Covid vax touters are beginning to worry about the possibility of Nuremberng style justice if things go South and the People begin to realize they are mass murderers from knowingly pedaling faux vaccines that collapse the economy and deny effective safe treatment alternatives.
I’m beginning to think it’s worse than that. Dr. Mike Yeadon, ex-CEO at Pfizer, has detected a distinct pattern in batches of the three biggest vax manufacturers, correlated with injuries from certain batches, and it appears that this is actually targeted bioweapon testing to determine a baseline for future mass murder.
Now, I’m not given to conspiracy stuff, but the evidence is mathematically hard to refute. We are the subjects of a horrible clinical trial, so they can kill us all.
This is two hours, but worth it… https://odysee.com/@Corona-Investigative-Com
I think you are on the right track. It occurred to me early on, when Covid “survivors” were encouraged to donate their plasma to “save” others.
I think the globalists wanted to study how to get around their defenses to build even more deadly bioweapons. They already know how to “save” people, but those therapeutics are forbidden. Saving lives is obviously not their true objective.
Bullshirt. They own the courts, the DOJ, the FBI.
NO ONE from their side HAS gone to prison, plenty from our side HAVE, and no reason to expect that to change.
Its called Injustice, it sucks but we ain’t gonna get justice, by talking about it.

52,000 meals here, 52,000 meals there, before you know it – mass starvation.
@Zerohedge reported yesterday about a wild boar ‘ Ebola ‘ scare in the E.U.- North Italy
Not passable to humans but may lead to culling of domestic herds.
Just another ‘coincidence’ I’m sure.
Wonder if it’s the same ebola strain that recently made its appearance in China.
Yeah, a few weeks before the Olympics.
to get a plausible story for it breaking out in WAshington West Coast.
I see to remember Covid coming directly from China to Italy on one particular region.
Around Turin where the factories and assembly plants employ Chinese workers who went home for Chinese New Year
yes, a fashion and textiles hub where Italian businesses were maximizing profit by employing ultra-low-paid Chinese imported workers
and covid exploded right away because the workers had come back from New Year celebrations with family back in China, including Wuhan I’d bet though I won’t look it up just now
If their Olympics implodes it would be just desserts. Who in their right mind continues to support the CCP?
Making room for the plant based cancer giving crap!
In the Holodomor people didn’t just starve. Stalin sent troops into the area to confiscate or destroy any food sources they could find. Penalty for “hoarding,” death
Not even seed to plant the coming year. Complete genocide. Same as in Armenia 15 years earlier. W
Famine is man made.
It has been said no one has starved to death in India since the British were sent packing. Before that, it was several millions every few years “because of the droughts” That, and the English custom of forcing the peasants to pay their rent on their confiscated lands, and taxes, in specie, which could only be had by selling their seed grain in tough times. That’s why India was the Crown Jewel of the British Empire, the rents.
The last major famine that killed millions in India was in 1943, when Churchill and his science advisor and best friend, Lord Churwell, diverted the grain production of Australia, where it was bound for starving Calcutta, to the rainy docks of Liverpool where it rotted because of inadequate storage facilities available.
We are still eating stuff from the 2021 garden.. will have to start a much bigger garden next month..
My dining area is filled with tomato plants, a few herbs, some peppers that aren’t producing by will be great starter plants in about 2 months, a lettuce plant and multiple catnip plants because the cats need to stay happy. They started as a fall experiment to see how they would grow in certain areas of my property but there were so many unripe tomatoes that I could not bear throwing them out. Four dozen cherry, 2 regular and 2 San Marzano tomatoes so far, multiple salads and about 4 dozen sugar snap peas in the last couple weeks.
Thus year’s garden is going to be a LOT bigger than in the past
I have four pepper plants sitting on a kitchen window sill. I pulled them from the garden and trimmed all the leaves. They are very happy in the window. I was just seed shopping. It’s great that you’re able to grow so many plants indoors. Whatever it takes!
3 words: Green Tomato Relish. Easy to can.
Oh yes! Also, fried green tomatoes.
My little Mexican house has a small garden, which can grow some things, but I have a good flat roof, about 25 x 50, on which I can grow container gardens with all kinds of fruit/veggies, and raise chickens (enough for eggs & meat for me), and maybe rabbits to eat and sell, and amend the soil with their excellent low-nitrogen poop pellets.
Lots of heirloom seeds there, we can all share. Butcher right down at the next street. I’m even beginning to get my neighbors to grow some things on their roofs….. And they’re liking it.
Does anyone in government know it takes 7 lbs. of feed to ad 1 lb. to a steer? Does anyone in Washington DC know that there are no potato products in Walmart today? I didn’t think so.
You are going to have to catch up with the program.
They are doing away with steers because they fart.
We all have to eat bugs now.
No, they haven’t considered what it will take to raise that many bugs.
imagine posting a cattle processing website with shipping.
imagine a company that provides low cost low energy consumption freezers posting their info…
etc…
we could get FIRED and survive a year. and work on the next year of suriviving during that year.
Bugs eat a lot of dead stuff. The DC rat-bastards are intending to produce a lot of dead stuff; during their cold & dark winter. OMG; this crazy fool may just KNOW what he’s mumbling about!
my cows do not pass gas or open gates.
Short answer, NO! The overwhelming majority of those in DC have never done anything but try to suck up to in order to “move up”. Their REAL WORLD knowledge and skill sets are essentially non-existent. This is why we have so much….stupid is as stupid does.
We learn by experiencing the negative consequences of our actions.
However, wealth and power enable us to AVOID experiencing the negative consequences of our actions, its one of the main attractions OF wealth and power.
So, the political elites, with a lot of nepotism, have become a class that doesn’t learn, as they have insulated themselves from negative consequences.
Yes, yes, YES!!! Consequences are superb teachers. The fact that the worst people escape those consequences often feeds an entirely new crop of fantasies and imprudent choices, becoming more reckless and imprudent by the day!
Ours were half full, I was surprised since many here were saying that. But still lots of empty spots, new brands and higher prices of course plus now there are no cashiers it’s 100% DIY.
My cows(and bulls) only,eat grass.
No they do not. To them, All that food just magically pops up on the grocery store shelving.
Things are starting to happen more rapidly for the “Bad Guys” desperation and panic is starting to really set-in. You c an bet they are going to make devastating mistakes.
Have you ever witnessed anything run by Left-wing Libtard Democrats work? Why is that? Because they lack; Rationale, Judgment, Commonsense. If they had Rationale, Judgment, Commonsense, it would be impossible to be a Left-wing, Libtard Democrat.
They are not stupid at all. They are convinced only they know best and follow Dr. Henry Kissinger.
” ….. many will suffer , a New World Order will emerge , it will be a better world for THOSE THAT SURVIVE …the world ‘we’ have wanted will be reality “
If they are not stupid then why are they Libtards?
My take is we CTH supporters and non jabbed citizens of the free world may be the ones that survive and flourish.
If God has his way, yes. Those who take the mark of the beast will not survive.
They are EVIL, pure unadulterated EVIL.
hope this works
someone asked for it last night

Thank you very much for this! Now maybe a certain relative of mine will believe me … May I ask for the full date again? I’m having trouble seeing it in the image, and will likely be questioned about it.
June 2011
Looks like 2011 to me
The paper is a periodical, the above is June 2011, 4th edition. I found it on https://archive.org when I searched The Sovereign Independent. Its published in Ireland.
honestly I can barely read some of the text myself with my bad eyes
hopefully someone can play with it and zoom in
I saw it when the vaccines first came out
and thought that one was worth saving.
last night when I said I would post it
I went to my phone to find it and it was gone!
I’m like wth ?
I would bet the scum took it off with their updates
few other things were messed up also
I try to block them but somehow they get thru
will never click update again
anyway I originally grabbed it on my old phone
dug it out of my closet and it was still on there
so it took me a little to find it and move it around.
I’ve pulled it out a few times in front of nurses and said
when someone tells you who they are,
you believe them!
Did a little deeper dig on that one for ya’. Here’s the link to the pdf: https://www.docdroid.net/GcTp0ru/the-sovereign-independent-june-2011-4th-edition-pdf
This is exactly what they are doing. The majority of people simply have not caught on. These shots are going to start killing off people within the next year. There have been thousands die already. If your Doctors are pushing you to get the shots, do some checking. The Doctors and Hospitals are being paid for each shot they give.
Healthcare workers are mostly useful idiots. They don’t believe these shots are any worse than the others that Big Harma pushes on an unsuspecting public.
But those who DO see the horrific injuries, and continue to keep silent, should be charged with genocide.
A pdf of the issue is available for download here: https://archive.org/details/sovereign-independent-issue-4_202105/Sovereign_Independent_Issue1/
thank you very much for that !
just read thru thru most of the issue
so Gates wants about 350 million people left out of what 9 billion?
hopefully the difference between that gets to him before
before his dreams come true!
I thought it was 500 million! What was I thinking? The Bible says that only 144,000 will be left on the earth, I believe. So Bill Gates better think again.
His divorce was never about his escapades at Epstein’s pedo island. Bill was a well known philanderer from way back. This was about the vaccines and how he used his own children to promote them.
CRITICAL BLOOD SHORTAGE – Red Cross sounds alarm on worst blood shortage in more than a decade – You can help!
https://commoncts.blogspot.com/2022/01/critical-blood-shortage-red-cross.html
I’m not donating a damn drop unless I get to decide who is the recipient at this point. Vaxtards can FOAD at this point.
My unmolested DNA and blood (as far as I know…) is reserved for immediate family only a this point.
start a private sale blood company. a simple trained person that obtain and insert .
Do they take blood from the unvaxxed?
The best way to solve that locally is to call and ask. Those I know who’ve called in CA have been told vaccination status isn’t a factor for donation. YMMV.
I would imagine pure blood will be in higher demand
My friend has 4 sons, all farm together, all 5 had covid and have been tested for natural immunity. The blood suckers as my friend calls them keep calling, they are donating as much as they can and are being paid. In demand blood
My husband went to the blood bank in November of last year. They asked him if was vaxed. He said no. They took his plasma.
The “vaccinated” could also be donating spike proteins. Robert Malone agrees with that likelihood at his Substack.
and its amazing how many unvaxxed caught the deadliest version of covid AND HAVE NO ISSUES.
ate it like a cookie. and said NEXT.
Yum, yum.
Well, I didn’t quite have that experience with delta. The viral pneumonia was starting.
However, five weeks out now and fit as a fiddle. I maybe would have come through alive without the monoclonals, but I suspect the spikes would still be spiking and I might have been dealing with Long CoVID.
I sort of have to admit now I’m getting old. 🤣 But very happy to be an unjabbed and naturally immune old!
I’ve brought this point up in the past with no response: Is our blood supply now tainted with donations from the vaxxed?
When asked if the blood supply might be tainted with spike proteins, Dr. Robert Malone said: “As the studies haven’t been done, who knows? But it is a reasonable hypothesis for which I have not seen data.”
https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/how-bad-is-my-batch/comments
Why wouldn’t it be? Maybe we can stash our own blood to use for an emergency?
I offer 1 pint of pure blood. Bidding starts at $10,000.
Don’t laugh. Someone would buy it on eBay.
Heard stories people get kidnap for their organs.
Watch the Michael Chricton flick ‘Coma’ from 1978. Lots of ways to get blood and organs. Stuff has been happening a lot lately in hospitals.
Are they demanding you be vaxxed to donate blood? Or will they simultaneously vaxx you when you are hooked up? Yeah, I know, conspiracy theory.
I won’t go near their woke hospitals and blood centers. They really screwed the pooch on this one. Zero credibility!
This is the exact reason that free markets work and why they are necessary. To react with speed and flexibility requires.freedom.
Freedom is a dirty word to mask notzees and other socialist democrats.
all the food is in our HOMES idiots!
you cant starve us out. WHAT NEXT? LOSERS.
So, JIT capitalism ate our seed corn for winter. The real profit harvest comes from the explosion of monopolistic power in economic and political fields, which is nothing short of Oligarchy. A bitter crop for America.
Wait till our returning Olympic athletes arrive Conus as infected vectors for a worse China pox thats ever been unleashed. You aint seen nuttin’ yet. CBRN – its your future.
Any countries have the cojones to boycott the olympics in Peking this year?
is the FED STATE our Daddy? Do they really pay our bills when they loan money to the states?
How is any authority attached to Federal Spending? unless the whole Country has been put to sleep and believe its Bidens money.
It’s definitely getting worse here in Western NC. It’s been bad since the covid thing started with many empty shelves but now exponentially worse since last week. We had a one day light snow storm and I mean Whole Foods had maybe 50% empty shelves…never seen anything like it. Ditto main grocery stores this week…just devastated.
In addition, last week is the first time the price increases became obvious. Now, I do notice fresh produce, if it is on the shelf (this week red grapes are gone in both local grocery and Whole Foods) is still pretty much at same price, but meat and fish..wow….I noticed turkey bacon went up a full dollar (this is Plainfield Farm antibiotic/hormone free); beef is up ; fish from Alaska..what the heck is going on with Sockeye salmon???? I still find what I need and want, but I shop at 4 stores to find it and I am only one person.
It’s supposed to snow this weekend…I can only imagine…people are packing the stores to stock up (in the south they panic over a snow flake)…and the shelves are half empty to start out. Heading to Harris Teeters tomorrow…I can only imagine what that will be like!!!
Given the thin margins, for those stores that aren’t corporate chains with deep pockets, empty shelves = less stuff across the scanners, buyers talk, fewer stop in to shop, death spiral. One more win for the fascist corporation/government partnership.
I bet your home is so stocked!!!!
they cant starve you! they are IDIOTS
The northeast is always ready for snow, but people still strip the shelves of bread, milk and perishables every time. Too bad your food shortage got off to an early start due to snow panic. But the shortage will reach everyone else soon enough.
where is this trucker mandate coming from?
As I understand, Canada not allowing unvaxed USA truckers in and USA not allowing unvaxed Canadian truckers in.
so the airline mandates effecting federal trucking around jan 22?
got it.
as in, how the hell can a trucker pull over to test constantly and keep the routes going well.
Canada just did a 180 turn and re-imposed it’s original trucker mandate on un-vexxed Canadian truckers returning home from the US.
Seems changing their minds is as easy as some women change clothes.
Now we know why walls are going up around the White House. Every bit of this is intentional. Lord help us.
Most people haven’t been paying attention to China’s food hording – they’ve been buying up contracts and crops like crazy here from US farmers for the past couple years ALL encouraged by Dept Ag. That same Dept Ag during Trumps last 2 years were playing farmers off their bumper crops. Now the Dept of Ag data is showing China is expected to have by the end of 2022 food crop, 69% of the world’s corn, 60% of rice and 51% of wheat – all horded in state military secured facilities. Now translate that to US food processing, then visualize grocery shelves. Shortages are guaranteed. Food intelligence is what drives preppers. That notion has finally made it mainstream – even Joe Rogan has talked about it. You ask “What is food intelligence?” Knowing where the food gluts are and where/when shortages may arise. It also involves being aware of alternative sources locally and even learning how to produce your own. It takes effort to acquire the skills necessary as well as $$$ to set yourself up to grow your own. It may already be too late to start paying attention because it’s not an overnight skill and for the couch potatoes, not easy. But when you walk down the aisles of the grocery, suddenly the concept of food intelligence becomes something you’re interested in.
We can just as easily kick China outta our country(war) in a heartbeat- and they leave the sand toys! Just takes God & willing President & Congress.
Be Not afraid. This is OUR land.
Or we just hijack the grain trains. I guess we’ll see strange things over the next few years if we don’t get proactive.
Sundance, I’m not sure that you fully understand the very intended consequences of the vaccine passports and mandates. The desire is the absolute destruction of those that fail to comply. They don’t just want to make life difficult for the non-compliant. They intend to make life impossible. The vaccine passports will soon be mandated even for entry into grocery stores. That’s where this goes.
The intent is to squeeze the unvaccinated to the point of rebellion, at which time their beloved FBI can begin rounding up “domestic terrorists” and shipping us off to “voluntary” concentration camps.
I predict there will soon be the development of black market supply chains offering access to groceries for the unvaccinated.
A true two tier society will develop.
They have a problem – they’re vastly numbered. They exist only because the vast majority allows them to exist. That can evaporate in an instant.
Here’s my question. Help me.
If the vaccines are the passport yet the vaccines are killing people, what’s the point?
They’ll have passports for a bunch of bodies and who the heck does the work? Everyone will be dead or our lifespan will be 50.
I get on one hand, power and control and money but on the other hand the population is sick and dying.
Sounds like liberal logic. Utopia idiot style.
It may take a while to kill off a good chunk of the vaxxed population.
Heart, organ and tissue damage may take up to 5 years to finally finish some of them off.
Depopulation and repopulation with engineered subjects. We freedom loving mungrels gotta go. We’ll never go along with the program.
What’s the point? The point is to kill everybody! What’s so hard to understand? /s
All red legislature states need to follow Florida’s example and pass laws prohibiting mandates and forced closures. Won’t solve the problem but will help.
Fair enough, however several of us free thinkers have already figured this out.
We have commercial fishermen onboard, a produce guy.
eggs, and meats, chicken and Turkey are easily sourced.
Fresh fruit may be tricky. Although frozen was acquired a month back.
We know a dentist that will work for cash, a chiropractor and legit physiotherapist.
Mechanics and most trades too.
An aside..our city rental property showed a modest increase in value of approximately 10%.
Our nice out of town quality rental place is up by nearer 40%.
We were taken aback..big cities are IMO struggling ( and I worked in one for over 30 years.)
Folks are talking with their feet.
“as a small retailer he can pick and choose suppliers” and “sometimes clean them out (ordering big)” but that is not the case “for bigger retailers”
interesting.
whats the difference between a small retailer and a bigger retailer? whats an example?
Closer relationship with local food producers. Walmart shops at the mega farmers
ahh, so the megas have precontracted relationships that if they fail it causes an issue.
I shop in what Sundance calls a smaller retailer. It is a family owned grocery store. The grocery store is in a large building but only occupies half of the total space. The back half of the building is a stock and storage area complete with large freezers for frozen stuff.
They do not use the Just in Time method. When the shelves run out they replenish from the back. An actual person places orders every week. I know because if I am looking for some special thing, I need to give him enough time order and receive it.
The produce dept always tries to provide locally grown if available and only supplies imported produce if there is no local supply. Being as we are in the central San Joaquin Valley in CA there’s lots of local produce.
And, amazingly, their prices are quite competitive.
Large chain grocers allow hoarders to wipe them out. They have no personal relationship with their customers. I found a local Korean grocer during the Covid lockdowns who never puts everything out on his shelves. He always had toilet paper, gloves, masks and sanitizers in the back for his regular customers. We never ran out even when the large chains were wiped clean.
Walmart vs a smaller regional chain.
Walmart is out, the regular local grocery stores of smaller chains, look fine.
I was in a Giant Eagle the other day, a larger chain. Looks like they removed a lot of shelving to not show the emptiness. But it made the store look even more empty.
I once talked to my grocery store manager about something I wanted that they didn’t carry…I think it was brie cheese….he said that they can only order from the corporate supplier from what is in their ‘catalog’. He showed me pages and pages of lists of store items….1000’s…but no brie.
General question for Floridians:
What, if any, impact has the population increase (250,000 in 2021) has on supply and infrastructure systems?
I get why people are fleeing to states like Florida, but at some point rapid population increases are going to have consequences of their own, especially when the logistical systems are under strain as it is.
Unintended consequences…
Like the SCOTUS decision today that will result in the loss of how many medical professionals and ancillary employees?
“Boy, glad that decision won’t affect me.”
Until it does.
Yeah, IMO any decision that doesn’t restore freedom and equality for all citizens is a bad decision.
Biden ‘s America: from The Land of Plenty to The Land of Empty.
The enemy knows this :
If people are freaking out about food insecurity ….. they are not following / demanding election audits.
Afghanistan people left behind …. forgotten.
Border over run …. whats that ?
See what I’m getting at ?
Even the so-called conservative talk radio ( most ) are chasing their tails everyday .
Yep, you’re on it. Damaging people and running cover for their dastardly deeds, both in the memory hole and currently in work. The Communist beast never sleeps.
Talk radio is formatted for the fleeting attention spans of drivers. I enjoy it but it is what it is.
Talk podcasts are exploding, however, and they go over everything in far greater depth.
Roger that. I’m so tired of conservative shows opening up with clips of the Biden People, illustrating how corrupt, witless, and evil they are. Fingernails on a chalkboard.
Biden’s mission wasn’t to get high ratings, it was to divert attention so The People won’t demand to know who is running the Government, and who is pulling their strings
What really annoys me is all the conservative tv people and politicians laid down and allowed this coup to happen, encouraged it even. And *now* they expect us to believe they are outraged? I’m not buying it and I’m taking names too.
Agree, food insecurity equals red herring. People are missing the big picture.
Thanks for this exhaustive, and alarming look at how liberals destroy everything.
And the cycle will continue, the results of the Walmartization of our Just in time retail system that began in the 60’s has had 60 years to destroy Mom and Pop businesses and family farms. Even in the most rural areas production of food is being leased and monopolized by Big Agri. Acres and acres of farm land is now hyper-developed or over worked to the point of exhaustion after years of super charged fertilization to satisfy per acre yield demands. For the blind, fertilizer doesn’t come from the back end of a cow any more, not in the amounts necessary to feed this country…approaching 30 million tons per year….it comes from Natural gas, a by product of oil production and is manufactured and used in massive quantities to coax the maximum yield to meet demand from the least amount of ground possible. Our farm land is no longer fertile. It has been reduced to a media from which plants extract the applied chemical fertilizers.
You can compost enough natural material to enrich a small family garden and grow enough to sustain your family. However there are 330 million people in the U.S. today and they eat nearly 2000 pounds of food a year….each. 82% of those 330 million people live in urban centers, cities if you like and they have no clue how to feed themselves. If the supply chain that feeds those 250 million people breaks down things are going to get tough…a lot tougher than anyone can even imagine.
I suggest that if you are not in an urban center that once you have enough food stockpiled to meet your needs for a year or so, that you should invest your time and money in building your defenses to protect your family from the hungry hoards that will steam out of said cities after they are properly looted of eatables
(sic) , because if the scenario that Sundance is shining a light on does indeed happen, beans and bullets are going to take on a whole new meaning. If you are in one of these urban centers, God help you, you are waaaay behind the curve. It could and I stress could, make The Walking Dead look like lunch time at a middle school. Be Ready!!!
Not forgetting most of their goods come from China
none of these consequences are unintentional. there is no such thing as an unintended leftist consequence.
Dang, Sundance, you’ve been reading my mind. It is not counterintuitive at all. All hands on deck kinda sums it up. Every avenue for distributing calories to the people needs to be in operation.
When the police, the national guard and their families start to run out of food maybe then these groups will realize they too have been snookered by the evil ones.
Those well armed ” groups ” will be the first to raid your pantries with force if need be.
For the Greater Good, their good.
Then trade that food for things they need or stuff to be done.
I don’t see this happening in Texas. All the restaurants have been open for almost the entire pandemic. Texas also produces a great deal of food. Maybe in New York where everything is shut down, but not here.
the politicians didn’t create the food supply chain john q citizen did. when are people going to get together to undo the damage the politicians have done to the people’s supply chain?
I get that removing 10% of the population from the out-of-home food chain and adding them to the at-home chain via COVID passes will burden the at-home food chain. We did worse in March 2020. What changed? Why is this so much worse? Do we just have much less margin in food supply, food packaging, and distribution and can’t handle another shock? Has the food chain become so fragile?
COVID passes are a truly stupid, vile, and evil idea. I just don’t understand why this is so much more of a crisis than March 2020. Forgive me. I’m dense. What am I missing?
The supply chain has never had chance to replenish, or replenish its workforce.
a commenter on the twitter thread asked:
where do all these omicron pcr test come from, that appear over night. they dont just magically guess this and have them ready…
Food shortage plus lost income and sunk costs to farmer plus he had to pay the trucker to haul off the carcasses to the rendering plant. With all the kill these days I presume the renderer is charging pretty good to take the stuff too. What a mess 🙁
Retired Magistrate here: Well, I have spent the last couple of days informing people of the food shortages that are coming and telling them to stock up. Most look at me like “oh, she is just a crazy old lady.” Well, this “crazy old lady” and her husband have two stocked refrigerator/freezers, stocked pantry, paper supplies, covid supplies, full gas tanks and are as prepared as we can be.
I would rather be a prepared “crazy old lady” than an unprepared, starving old lady.
Thank you so much Sundance for the heads up.
I hear you. People think I’m nuts too, but just like you, I am stocked for 2 years! I am waiting for return of the Trump!
That means you’re one year shy on supplies. 🙂
I have said this from day-1. People will be begging for Trump’s return. When will it be? I think it has to be when enough people “feel” the pain.
I didn’t think of food shortages being the “eye-opener”. I thought it would be a Stock Market crash. I did not foresee “vaccine” mandates being a trigger.
What really upsets me are the reported health issues associated with the “vaccine”. Though I am not “vaxxed” 90% of my family and friends are vaxxed and that scares the living hell out of me.
At the time I tried to warn people, but I was treated like a “Crazy Uncle in the Attic. What gets me, there was no “Were are you getting your information”?
Unfortunately, my visual today is a herd of sheep standing at the foot of slaughterhouse chutes following evil goats. If there ever is a time I hope I am wrong it is right now.
They had better start looking at Governors with common sense, and follow their advice and actions, to start getting food out again. The ideas in this article provides good advice, but a LOT of Governors especially Democrat ones, does not have the brains of a goose. Then Biden and his band of fools are making things worse by all these shot mandates, which is sheer nonsense. Besides, a lot of people are dying after getting these shots. Be concerned about ensuring people can find jobs, provide food, and keep the kids in school. Right now, the idiots are running the circus (Democrats and Biden). This crap needs to stop.
States like Virginia also contribute to the problem on hand by taxing companies on inventory.
The auto parts industry went to just in time delivery years ago and very few items are in stock anymore.80% of parts need to be ordered.parts we can get by a day or 2 but food people will not put up with that.
“unintended consequences”??? i beg to differ…
I think it will be hysterical if the cities have food riots. If the unjabbed are to suffer than I’m perfectly happy watching the jabbed suffer along with us.
The point of this is to make conditions such that a ‘federal’ solution (nationalization of those evil greedy bastards interfering with the field to fork supply line) will be not just demanded by the chattering classes but will attempt to be instituted.
So we’re on this runaway train called “unintended consequences”created by the Democrats and deep state, is there anyway this train can be stopped? Is there anyway we can get off it or are we doomed to ride it until it crashes? I thought we were Americans unique in problem solving the impossible, creating solutions, American ingenuity? Apollo 13, the Panama Canal, the Atomic bomb, the PC, the Stealth bomber, the Hubble telescope, the internet, the light bulb etc? What has happened to us? Are we required to accept/live with this prescience of Sundance? Godspeed Sundance!
A day after the Canadian Border Services Agency said an incoming vaccine mandate for truck drivers crossing from the United States would not be going into effect this week, the federal government said the reversal was all a mistake.
The CBSA’s comment to The Canadian Press, which created much confusion within the trucking industry, “was provided in error,” said a joint statement released late Thursday afternoon by three federal cabinet ministers.
Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra and Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino did not provide an explanation on how the mistake was made.
On Wednesday evening, the CBSA spokesperson said Canadian truck drivers would not have to quarantine if they are unvaccinated or had received only one dose.
But the ministers said beginning Saturday, Canadian truckers must be vaccinated if they want to avoid quarantine and molecular tests. Unvaccinated American big-riggers will be turned back at the border.
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-vaccine-mandate-truckers-cross-border-ottwawa-cbsa/
That last picture really hit the nail on the head.
“Restricting restaurant capacity, shutting food venues, closing school lunchrooms, shutting or restricting cafeterias or hotels, blocking venue access by vaccine restrictions, all of these have damaging unintended consequences to the food delivery system. ” These are NOT “unintended consequences”. This is a purposeful and deliberate effort to starve out Americans, especially those of us who refuse to comply. Won’t work. Many of us already have established alternative food supply chains that are much shorter, more stable and healthier. Let’s Go Brandon!
I presume savings, debt, or the underground economy. I’ve done OK selling off 35 years of business assets, inventory and raw materials. Need any specification steel or aluminum or stainless? Machine tools? A machinist? Heh 😀
I loved to work. Still do. My customers first said they could buy it cheaper in China then the Covid came. No way is this old guy gonna play this whacked out government’s game. The end.
In short order, anarchy will destroy urban blue cities food transportation and distribution system. Food delivery into the ghetto and immediate areas will cease. Looting homes for food will be all that’s left in order to prevent starvation of the strongest…for a short period. Cities will become ghost towns.
Unless the “defund the police” movement rapidly reverses course and Soro’s DAs are forced to obey the law, the cities will collapse. Not even the military could protect or distribute food in conditions of total urban anarchy.
Black market food suppliers cannot survive full scale anarchy.
Meh. Democrats want chaos and so shall they have chaos.
More food for flyover country too.
Life is quite normal down here in flyover.
Flyover will be far less friendly towards Democrat styled anarchy.
Who could have imagined the level of purely imbecilic destruction Joe Biden has brought to his base.
When do they go from collecting data on future purchases to just deciding what we want? Like Coke or Pepsi? Democrat or Republican? I mean as long as there’s a ‘choice’ right?
“You can vote red or blue. It’s a free dictatorship.” ~Moon Over Parador
Great info on the precarious nature of the retail food supply chain. One very minor detail in the predictive modeling they feed into their AI calculators is the very necessary input called safety stock, which provides a buffer in case of interruptions. But it is unlikely they have anywhere near the correct safety stock info in view of the massive interruptions from Covid policies.
Often our local schools are shut down, due to virus outbreaks. There has to be stockpiles of food there.
Unfortunately, by reading this terrific analysis, gubmint can devise a solution.
1) Make all Americans poorer to reduce demand.
2) “If just 10% of a population, within a metropolitan region of consumers, are blocked from restaurants or food venues because they are unvaccinated, they are going to put stress on the alternative, the grocery supply chain”. Outlawing the unvaxed from purchasing food should adjust this movement.
Yes, our pols and courts are willing to kill you through starvation. Lawlessness means laws against murder no longer apply.
