Sweet baby Jesus – it’s flipping dejá vu all over again !!

CTH knew Pelosi and UniParty leadership were going to use the 2008/2009 TARP approach to construct the scale of their COVID bail-out package, but we had no idea they were going to use the EXACT SAME amount…  The UniParty is flying high tonight.

According to recent reports (which seem accurate) congress has just agreed to the largest bailout and budget combined spending bill in history.  The seriously sketchy COVID “relief” (insert term “bailout”) package is $900 billion, and they are throwing in a $1.4 Trillion omnibus spending bill… This is literally identical to what Pelosi and crew did when Obama was coming into office in 2007.

~ The total combined package is over $2.3 TRILLION ~

(Via Politico) […] House and Senate are now on a glide path to approve the aid package and its partner, a $1.4 trillion bill funding the government through September.

Though the Fed feud dominated the past 48 hours, the crux of the package remains the same: a $300 boost in weekly unemployment benefits, $600 relief checks for adultsand children, more than $300 billion for small business aid and huge pots of money for schools, hospitals and vaccine distribution.

Butter my buns and call me a biscuit, how can people not see what is going on here?  2020 is an exact replica of 2007 with COVID taking the place of TARP.  And… to top it all off, we have omnibus spending bills replacing the federal budgetary process all over again. FML.

Many people talk of a foreboding sense. A sense that something is very close to erupting on the surface. I believe, and have said for months, the final eruption will come as a result of overreach by control authority in reference to COVID dictates. We are close.

In Washington State the entire town of Mossyrock has united to defy the COVID-19 dictatorial fiats of the State Governor Jay Inslee.  This is how the rebellion will succeed.

In another exhibition of COVID madness, the governor of New York has banned indoor eating in New York City to stem the spread of the virus.  However, the state’s own data shows a mere 1.4 percent of COVID-19 cases can be traced to restaurants.

It seems absolutely ridiculous when you think about proximity endeavors.  Consider that airplanes, buses and trains have no social distancing at all – while restaurants were only allowed to operate at 25 percent capacity.  Now restaurants can have no indoor service.

[New York Post] … In Manhattan, the capital of America’s restaurant business with more places, seats and customers than anywhere else, the new-infection rate is a mere 2.5 percent, compared with 5 percent in the state overall.

Yet absurdly, indoor dining is still allowed in most of the state including in areas with much higher infection rates.

The indoor ban’s the most painful to restaurant workers and to owners who went beyond the last mile to comply with the ever-changing rules for indoor and outdoor dining. (more)

REPOST BY REQUEST – There is a COVID-19 virus; however, COVID is not more dangerous than all other flu-like viruses that impact the respiratory system. COVID-19 is very manageable and doesn’t carry a higher fatality rate.  [Usefulness As A Narrative]

Why is COVID-19 being disproportionately hyped as such a dangerous threat, when the reality of the statistical danger is much less than the intense level of hype?… That is the key question.

The answer is… social changes under the guise of COVID-19 mitigation, are the entry point for the goals and aspirations of the political left on a national and global scale. COVID-19 is a virus, but also a very important political weapon, and we are about to discover exactly what the purpose of the hype is all about. What follows will help understand; and when you encounter the fear it will help to reconcile what people cannot figure out.

After the Marxist-left spent four years challenging the result of the 2016 election, forming the “resistance” and calling Donald Trump an illegitimate president; and after Big Tech supported, allowed and amplified that message on all media platforms; Big Tech’s largest control agent, Google (via YouTube), now steps-in to say they will not permit content that challenges the outcome of a demonstrably fraudulent 2020 election.

…”we will start removing any piece of content uploaded today (or anytime after) that misleads people by alleging that widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. Presidential election.”…

(Source)

To use a familiar movie metaphor, what we are witnessing is BIG TECH activating their Death Star to destroy opposition and advance their ideological agenda on behalf of their EMPIRE.  Google Inc will target and shut-down any voice that challenges them.

While alarming and disconcerting in the extreme. This is not necessarily a bad outcome, because now the true rebellion will begin.  Now the Rebel Alliance will grow as ordinary people start to take matters much more seriously.

Keep in mind, the hypocrisy is only a small aspect, they don’t care about your opinion on this issue.  This is the advancement of a totalitarian regime goal by ‘any means necessary’.  CTH readers are smart, we saw this coming… we know how to lead a rebellion with the tools of an insurgency.

Responding to numerous inquires, let’s chat…

Nothing currently unfolding is surprising to many long-term CTH political researchers and observers.  After all, it’s The Last Refuge because we have been talking about the tentacles of this for a very, long time.  However, that said, let’s step back away from the chaff and countermeasures for a few moments and lay out some of the ‘why’.

Step One – First, the financial powers beyond the Big Club gain full unlawful compliance by those within the election system; those who would willingly break election laws by manipulating outcomes; by framing the target -Donald Trump- as evil.  Thus, workers justify their unlawful activity as saving the nation “by any means necessary“…

The Tools – The COVID-19 narrative becomes a tool to achieve a variety of objectives: debate controls; the deployed ‘excuse‘ for a very visible lack of voter enthusiasm for the puppet (Biden); the use of fraudulent ‘mail-in ballots’; the keeping of socially distant physical auditors, etc.  Without COVID as a tool the manufactured process is more difficult. The ‘never let a crisis go to waste‘ strategy includes the creation of a crisis.

Why? – Why all of this effort?… why such extremes?… why would blue state governors willingly destroy their economy?….  Follow the money, it’s always about the money.

The global ideology is worthless without money.   Wall Street’s Rick Santelli knows, he’s watching the second deployment of an identical playbook.

So when your friends ask why, let’s talk about ‘why‘.

Angela Marsden is an owner of the Pineapple Hill Saloon and Grill since 2011.  They are barely hanging-on to their business amid the insufferable COVID compliance dictates from LA Mayor Garcetti, the municipal COVID compliance officers, and arbitrary COVID decrees devoid of any scientific merit.  Today the weight of it all became too much:

The Pineapple Hill Saloon and Grill has a website [SEE HERE] and a contact page where you can show your support. Amid these challenging times fellowship and a spirit of community within the common sense rebel alliance is critical. Make sure you do not allow people to think they are ‘on their own’.

Many people may not remember the February 2009 famous rant by CNBC financial pundit Rick Santelli that captured the heart of the Tea Party movement in response to massive announced bailouts of Wall Street institutions.  There are trillions at stake.

Wall Street pundit Rick Santelli was originally responding to the famous TARP,  Auto-bailouts, Porkulous, Omnibus, QE1, QE2 and ultimately the American Recovery and Restoration Act (ARRA ie. stimulus ‘shovel ready jobs‘), all of which were financial bailouts and payments for politically connected financial interests and unions. None of these programs assisted Main Street USA with a dime.

Fast forward twelve years later and here we are again. The same voices, with the same playbook, with the same insufferable political manipulation under the guise of COVID compliance mandates.  The ‘never let a crisis go to waste crowd‘; and the soon-to-follow massive state spending bailouts; for which COVID is the purposeful cover story.

COVID-19 has more purposefully weaponized political arrows than any previously used financial quiver. However, if you step-back and compare the agenda – there is a brutal amount of similarity… all of the exact same benefactors…. and Main Street collapses.

This is the progressive way to a Marxist economy.  We The People are collateral damage.

Yes, you read the headline correctly.  Apparently the COVID virus can tell the difference between your grocery store and your local drinking establishment.  Effective tomorrow Louisiana Governor Bel-Edwards is shutting down bars until AFTER Christmas.

BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – Many bars across Louisiana will be forced to close effective tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 25 until after Christmas.

The closures will come as a result of tighter new restrictions announced by Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards Tuesday, Nov. 24.

There were 3,266 new COVID-19 cases and 39 additional deaths reported in the state overnight.  “It is imperative that we take action and take action now,” Gov. Edwards said.

It’s hard to believe the image below was originally shared on these pages and discussed almost a decade ago.  There was just something about the shift in messaging from the totalitarian left that sounded an internal alarm amid those who were focused on the open dismissal of liberty and freedom that resounded from the drumbeat of the Obama era:

“Fundamental change” was a looming catch phrase many just seemed to ignore.  And here we are… divided by a network of seemingly intoxicating systems; many purposefully driven by the modern dynamic of social media, steering a tribal outcome we are only now just beginning to fathom. Ultimately what the collective weight of progressiveness is putting upon us is isolation.  There are so many historic references to this strategic sentiment it is disconcerting to review with hindsight.
