CTH has been waiting to write this because we first needed to see how both wings of the Uniparty vulture in DC were positioning.  Now, with clear vision, eyes wide open and clarity of focus the issue must be centered.

How are Americans going to respond when Washington D.C, the Fourth Branch of the security and surveillance state, and all the institutions of the United States government, officially declare that Donald John Trump will not be permitted to run for office?

If you have not thought about that question, we had better hurry up and get that conversation front and center.

It’s about to happen, and President Trump knows it.

The specific phrase, “They are so desperate to hide the truth, they’ll make it criminal to speak it,” does not only pertain to the election fraud.

When hardline leftists (fascists, communists, et al) are successful in advancing their political ideology, we always reach a point where all opposition must be silenced.  Dissent is a risk to the totalitarian state; that’s also why communists always ban religion.

Totalitarianism needs total control.  Free speech is antithetical to that control.  The natural evolution of any totalitarian state is to use the justification of security as a method for that control; hence, the U.S. received The Patriot Act, and all of the longer-term slippery slope consequences that are never fully discussed at the outset.  I digress.

So, here we are today – facing a U.S. Dept of Homeland Security (DHS), under the current control of the far left, stating that free speech is now the biggest domestic threat for terrorism.  Whereby the voices to target are those voices who might: “sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence.”

Undermine trust in government, as defined by anyone who does not blindly trust the policies from Biden administration, and you are now subject to be labeled a terrorist.

DHS Alert (Feb 7, 2022) – The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors.

The Ottawa Freedom Convoy protests are exposing too many hypocrisies of the leftist Canadian government and their faux conservative opposition.  It is only a matter of time before both wings of the Federal UniParty vulture known as Parliament sanction an aggressive federal response.

An insider within the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), essentially the Canadian federal police force, has leaked some of the details.  The leaked plan as outlined in this video warning {Direct Rumble Link} does seem to be authentic and aligns with the statements from federal ministers inside the administration of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.  [Unfortunately embed disabled]

Previously Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly said his agency was working with RCMP officials “collecting financial, digital, vehicle registration, driver identification, insurance status and other related evidence.”  Additionally, Justin Trudeau’s Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino stated that U.S. and Canadian intelligence units had been cooperating to identify targets within the protest.  Federal agents have also been working undercover to gather information about the truckers and their supporters.

From the video of the leaked plan, the process is straightforward:

♦ Disable cell phone communication. Prevent communication and livestreaming.
♦ Add additional resources to raid the truckers, selecting key targets first.
♦ Remove arrested individuals to the Landsdown processing center. Dissident Detention Camp.
♦ Multiple Agency coordination including RCMP, POU, and local police departments.
♦ Timeline between now and Friday.

Something has changed in the past several days.  Likely the private COVID fear polling continued to show an overwhelming number of Americans are just done with the constant COVID-19 fear porn and mandates.

Today, several states including New Jersey and California announced they were dropping their mask mandates and many COVID-19 regulations.  In the past week there appears to have been a big shift in the narrative.  To highlight that point, the biggest fear porn and mandate seller on CNN, Dr. Leana Wen, completely reversed her position, and said it’s time to let people make their own choices.  WATCH:

Notice also how there’s been virtual silence on any further White House efforts to push the booster or vaccination program.  Last we saw the booster compliance effort, it was less than 50% of those who were previously vaccinated.  There’s definitely been a change in narrative engineer pressure for more COVID pushing overall – vaccinations, regulations and/or masks.

Last point, Zach on Twitter had been searching for a video for quite some time that he just recently found again and shared.  It’s a video of Dr. Leana Wen from several years ago.  It really makes you stand back and think.  The video is very weird.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reappeared in Parliament this evening.  The timing was transparently predictable when contrast against the urgency, and state of emergency the local government declared Sunday to get rid of the freedom protestors.

Exactly on cue, Trudeau appears to clutch his pearls, tell the people of Canada that he understands the “frustration” of the few but appreciates the “overwhelming majority” of Candian citizens who love him and support his COVID policies, despite their being “tired of the pandemic.”  Those who followed the rules and worshipped at the altar of his magnanimous COVID leadership are “the real Canadian voices” Trudeau declared.

Trudeau continued by saying the Canadians who “stepped up, to support one another” express the true meaning of being Canadian.  The protest group are a hate-riddled minority of unclean “swastika” waving outsiders, walking around Ottawa “insulting and jeering” local residents “for wearing a mask.”

Trudeau told the chamber, the protest group “is not the story of this pandemic.”   He accused the protest group of “attempting to block the economy” without regard for their collective responsibility to “support their fellow Canadians.”  WATCH:

CANADA – […] “The protesters in Ottawa are “trying to blockade our economy, our democracy and our fellow citizens’ daily lives. It has to stop,” Trudeau said Monday night in the House of Commons.  “The people of Ottawa don’t deserve to be harassed in their own neighbourhoods.” (read more)

A disturbing video [Full Video Link] shows a seriously unstable set of Ottawa police officers targeting and arresting an 80-year-old man for the crime of blowing his car horn (I think).

A shorter version of this video is going viral on social media as the Ottawa police department begins “enhanced enforcement techniques,” at the request of municipal and provincial government officials.  There’s some salty language here as the Canadian police begin to go full Australia with the arrests in/around the Freedom Protest groups.

The elderly man, albeit a little salty with the officers, was identified by police as a non-compliant threat to their authority.  He is then roughly manhandled, put on the ground and eventually handcuffed and taken away.  His current status is unknown. WATCH (Prompted)

Good grief, when the leftist government in Canada gets pushback, they really don’t know how to handle it.  Earlier today, the Canadian government expressed extreme anger toward any American citizen who may have made a financial contribution to the Freedom Protest. {CTV}

Reading from a prepared statement, Justin Trudeau’s Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino stated the Canadian government intends to target any American who may have donated to the Freedom Convoy protest effort.  Apparently, the Canadian government wants to scare Americans away from donating to support the Freedom Protest in Ottawa.  [Full Presser Video Here]

Minister Mendicino identified the Ottawa protest group as a “violent”, “hate” group.  The Ottawa truck drivers were described as an “angry, loud, intolerant and violent crowd,” who “threaten the national security of Canada.”

Following his outline of the violent mob, Minister Mendicino switched his targeting to the donors who have supported the Freedom Protest, saying that Canada has a “robust” intelligence community that will flag for the Trudeau administration all concerns of national security, as well as a separate branch within the RCMP that looks into these types of issues.

“That’s why I’m certainly confident that wherever there’s foul play of the sort, that we’ll be in a position to act appropriately,” said Mendicino.  “If, for example, someone was contributing with the intent of either causing public harm or trying to undermine public safety, that would be something that would be against the law, and there would be appropriate sanctions for that, if proven in the court of law,” he said.

The crowdfunding website GiveSendGo issued a press release today [FULL HERE] outlining their intent to stand by the people who organized the Freedom Convoy in Canada.

Within their statement GiveSendGo says they have been in contact with the organizers, and the supporters of the Freedom Protest had raised $4.5 million in 24 hours.  This is the largest crowdfunding campaign they have ever supported:

(Press Release) –  BOSTON, Mass. – GiveSendGo stands for hope and freedom. We recognize the freedoms we have are God-given, not authorized by governments, but rather freedoms that ought to be protected by our governments.

GiveSendGo does not condone violence of any form! We believe there’s more power in the unity of a peaceful protest than in violent civil unrest.

As in any polarized situation, we recognize there will be a few individuals and groups that might intentionally try to incite violence, which will be used to stain this movement by opposing groups. We will not broad stroke those individual situations as a depiction of what this movement represents as if they were affiliated.

GiveSendGo has also been in contact with the campaign organizers and has received full assurance that all funds raised will go to provide humanitarian aid and legal support for the peaceful truckers and their families as they stand for freedom.

“In light of allowing this campaign we have seen an overwhelming outpouring of support from across the globe,” said GiveSendGo CoFounder Heather Wilson.  This has quickly become GiveSendGo’s largest campaign ever and has raised over 4.5 million USD in less than 24 hours. (read more)

A judge in Ontario has issued a 10-day injunction against honking in Ottawa.

CANADA –  Ontario Superior Court Justice Hugh McLean has granted a 10-day injunction to prevent truckers parked on city streets in downtown Ottawa from honking their horns incessantly.

McLean said Monday the injunction is temporary because he needs to hear more evidence, but that he has heard enough to make this ruling as a protest against COVID-19 pandemic measures continues to paralyze the national capital around Parliament Hill.

[…] McLean said he heard enough evidence that the continual blaring of horns was having an effect on residents that their right for “quiet, if we can use that term,” trumped the honking truckers’ right to protest.  […] the court is slated to hear more evidence on how the injunction will be enforced.  (read more)

Trucks and Geese hardest hit.

People are starting to catch on.  First, how it is surfacing:

(Zero Hedge) ...”traders are paying bumper premiums for immediate supply” … “Commodities are severely undersupplied” … “The shortage of, well, everything has translated into record price of virtually all commodities: the Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index, which tracks 23 energy, metals and crop futures, has touched a record this year. That has been driven in part by surging oil prices, which have hit their highest level since 2014.” (read more)

CTH readers are specifically well positioned to understand what is happening in the background we have discussed two specific issues:

(1) In any era of hyper-inflation, we always see the advanced purchasing of inventory for profit.  Meaning, when prices are quickly rising multinationals use their size and power over commodity goods to store, physically or through contracted future purchases, goods that are held until a specific target price is reached and then sold for a bigger profit.  In 2022 the “supply chain disruption” is being used as a cover.

(2) In the modern era, the major multinationals control the supply of originating products.  There’s no such thing as a free market. In the modern era it is a controlled market.

Long before the word “inflation” hit the 2021 headlines, April/May of last year, CTH specifically identified where we are right now.

In the background right now, the multinationals are exploiting the two issues above.  The Zero Hedge article “Shortages of Everything” is discussing the surfacing symptom, i.e. goods traders willing to pay premium prices to secure inventories, not necessarily the root cause.
