This story is almost unbelievable, but unfortunately it is very real.  The FBI suspected a safe deposit box company named U.S. Private Vaults was participating in money laundering.  The feds gained a search warrant with very specific limitations (which they abruptly violated), to look at the legal contents of some boxes.  However, the judge said no content could be removed unless the FBI specifically could prove the content was illegal.

The feds ignored the search warrant parameters and just started busting open the boxes, confiscating $86 million in cash, jewelry, rare coins and precious metals.  When the owners went to court the FBI said the contents smelled like marijuana – ergo the owners had to prove how they came into legal possession of the items.  The issues are not resolved, but at least a few judges are rightly looking at this as a clear violation of the 4th amendment…..

(Los Angeles Times) – […] Ruiz is one of roughly 800 people whose money and valuables the FBI seized from safe deposit boxes they rented at the U.S. Private Vaults store in a strip mall on Olympic Boulevard.

Federal agents had suspected for years that criminals were stashing loot there, and they assert that’s exactly what they found. The government is trying to confiscate $86 million in cash and a stockpile of jewelry, rare coins and precious metals taken from about half of the boxes.

This is a huge development in the battle for freedom in Victoria, Australia.  It cannot be overstated.

The Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) has declared war against their own leadership, John Setka (left, circled), for not fighting against the mandatory COVID vaccine.  As he was attempting to hunker down in his office headquarters, union boss John Setka physically came under attack from his own union membership over his political relationship with Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews.

This is the U.S. equivalent of AFL-CIO members launching a violent uprising against former union President Richard Trumka; and then Trumka running to Joe Biden for help and protection from his own membership.

The CFMEU members are the heavy-hitting blue-collar construction and dirty fingernail workers, and the leadership of the CFMEU are the thug-like mobsters who run the union.

Just like the AFL-CIO or UAW in America, the union leadership in Australia is politically corrupt and disconnected from the members they serve. Earlier today (AU-time), the union members organized to confront the union leadership.

When CFMEU union boss John Setka tried to weasel his way out of the confrontation things turned violent. The members have had enough of the lockdowns, ridiculous COVID regulations and now the forced vaccinations. Setka shouted, “What do you want me to do, shut it down?” The members erupted in cheers. Yes, that is exactly what they want. [09:54 of video below]

The union members want their leadership to fight for them; to use the power of the union labor movement to shut down industry and bring the government to heel. The righteously angry members, turned freedom fighters, want to force Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews to back-down from his totalitarian dictates, and stop the mandatory vaccines that create two classes of people.

First things first.  If there ever was an actual “insurrection”, a couple hundred patriots with axe handles would easily crush these out-of-shape DC riot goons dressed like teenage ninja turtles. Just sayin’…  Although, to be fair, a few of the groups did look like they just raided the costume surplus from the last Batman movie.

Today, the feds planted undercover operatives all over the DC mall in an effort to manipulate the crowd and set-up another “insurrection narrative.”  However, in a hilarious turn of events no one showed up to play.   As a result, there were more media looking for stories than actual protestors, and the DC riot police looked like knuckleheads on a scavenger hunt for Easter eggs.  Dummies.

Amid the over-the-top nonsense, the DC police did notice a suspicious man dressed in Antifa garb wearing a concealed firearm.  However, when they moved in to question him, the doofus had to admit he was an undercover federal agent and showed his badge.  That’s when things really got funny because the cops, now with a case of the sads, had to pretend like they were arresting him in order to retain appearances. It was all caught on camera.  WATCH:

Apparently, according to the Twitter, this is what happens when you throw an entrapment party and no one shows up.

A rather remarkable situation in San Diego that we could see play out in the rest of the nation.  The police union, The San Diego Police Officers Association (SDPOA), asked their members about the vaccination mandate.

65 percent of the respondents said they would consider quitting the force if the city were to impose a requirement.  However, an alarming 45 percent said they would rather be fired than comply with the mandate.

The SDPOA has 1,971 members.  According to the San Diego Union Tribune, half of those officers are not vaccinated.  If that half of the entire police department were to be fired for non-compliance with the vaccine mandate, the city of San Diego would be in a really sketchy place.  The city has a deadline for compliance on November 2nd.

SAN DIEGO  —  About 90 percent of San Diego police officers who responded to a recent survey said they oppose COVID-19 vaccine mandates, and 65 percent of them said they would consider quitting the force if the city were to impose a requirement.

About 45 percent said they would rather be fired than comply with a mandate, according to the survey, which was conducted in the past week by the San Diego Police Officers Association. (read more)

We can imagine this same type of conversation is likely taking place in several cities and counties at the same time.  The police officers union was not present for the discussions with the Biden White House.  The US Postal Workers Union was present, and they were granted an exemption from the forced vaccine requirement.

Sheriff Wayne Ivey in Brevard County, Florida, releases shocking video of an officer involved shooting that took place August 30th.  The video was released September 10th and shows just how dangerous it is to be a police officer.

During a traffic stop a career felon with outstanding warrants was a passenger seated in the rear of the vehicle.  When the officers instructed him to exit the vehicle, the suspect immediately pulls out a short barrelled rifle and starts shooting at the officers.   A total of 61 shots were fired in the exchange.

The COVID madness has created a most unusual dynamic for the residents down-under and the painfully monitored Australian media who have to be careful not to run afoul of the government COVID compliance watchers.

Once a nation creates an alternate reality of itself, in this case a totalitarian reality based on government needing to create an irrational illusion of fear that becomes part of the accepted national identity, how can a media outlet call attention to the outcomes without finding themselves in front of the governmental board of inquisition?  That is the current challenge for media in Australia trying to report on their reality and yet avoid the ire from the national board of COVID compliance who have successfully brainwashed the audience.

One Australian media personality, Sky News host Rita Panahi, seems to have found a way. Ms Panahi continues to highlight broadcasts from around the world and articles in publications such as The Atlantic and The Times of London.  The articles are commenting on the freedoms Australians had lost throughout the pandemic.  Rita Panahi avoids the COVID Compliance censors by reporting on how the world is viewing Australian news.  It is weird, and yet it is a perfect example of how bizarre the world has become over COVID.  WATCH:

“Publications around the world, which previously did not pay much attention to Australia, are wondering what sort of a dystopian nightmare we have turned into,” Panahi says.  Later following with “we are not like the rest of the world. Australia and New Zealand stand alone in enforcing some of the most draconian restrictions on what are supposed to be free people.” Which is precisely the point.

I commend the strategy of Sky News and Rita Panahi for reporting behind enemy lines, to allies within her own nation, in such as manner as the enemy controlling the broadcast signal cannot remove her voice.

“Contrariwise,’ continued Tweedledee, ‘if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic.”  So goes the wonderful words of Lewis Carroll from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland…. Which is the only appropriate frame of reference for what you are about to discover.

You see…

Put another way,… if the pod under your bed malfunctioned, but the pods under all the other beds in the city worked, what happens when you awaken and realize you are not one of them, but you must engage in the world of them while looking for others -like yourself- whose pods hopefully malfunctioned?   That is the current challenge for media in Australia trying to report on their reality and yet avoid the ire from the national board of COVID compliance who have successfully brainwashed the audience.

One Australian media outlet seems to have found a way.  In this report from Sky News Australia, they avoid the censors by reporting on how the world is viewing Australian news, by sharing American news clips of Australian news.  It is weird and the perfect example of how bizarre the world has become over COVID.  WATCH:

The Taliban are beating fewer people in Afghanistan than police in Australia…

The events surrounding COVID mitigation in Australia and New Zealand continue to astound me.  The last several days in several provinces have shown brutal conduct and physical attacks by police, riot units and military deployments against the citizens within their respective regions.

All of this activity is because citizens are demanding an end to the futile lockdowns that have gone well beyond reasonable efforts to mitigate COVID.  The various state governments within Australia are attempting to get rid of a virus by isolating the people in the most extreme ways possible; and when the citizens protest, they are met with batons, rubber bullets, pepper spray and some of the most brutal beatings you could imagine.

Thousands of citizens have been arrested, jailed and fined as the government shows a total disconnect from the reality of the virus.  Beating citizens brutally in the streets in the name of public health?  Factually and literally absurd.

Last week New Zealand locked down the entire country over one case of COVID.  48 hours into the mandated four day lockdown and they had 21 new cases, so they extended the ‘stage 4’ lockdown another four days.  In Australia you are not permitted to travel between cities at all and there are checkpoints set up to catch people.

An animal rescue shelter in New South Wales shot all their dogs dead, literally killed them, simply because they were fearful another animal rescue team from out of the area would travel to save the animals. So they killed them all?  A “rescue shelter”, the absurd irony is jaw-dropping.

Long-haul truck drivers are not permitted to stop and eat, or shower, or rest outside their vehicles by orders of the government.  That type of public policy is just insane.  How are essential foods and medicines expected to get distributed if truck drivers cannot safely operate?  Is there not one high profile national political figure who will stand and call attention to the abject insanity of what they are doing?

Making matters worse, it seems like the entire institutional media in both New Zealand and Australia are supporting the totalitarian effort of the government to fight against the citizens.  The propaganda of fear is stunning.  WATCH:

Today was the deadline for citizens of France to carry their vaccination ID if they want to participate in society.   Citizens of France are required to carry their identification if they want to eat a restaurants, go to shopping malls or attend venues where crowds would gather.  [MSM CITATION HERE] Videos of the French police conducting random checks and checkpoints are surfacing.  WATCH:

As we noted last month when this was announced, France is the beta-test.  The U.S. State Department and French government have a long history of cooperation and testing for political and social change.

This will be coming soon to New York City (previously announced), and from there to towns and local communities across the United States.

We Cannot Comply Our Way Out of Tyranny…

Patriots around the world are rising up in opposition to the totalitarian government efforts to weaponize COVID fear against the principles of liberty and freedom.

In Australia, the government has reintroduced forced lockdowns, the patriots are taking to the streets and successfully breaking through police barricades.  In France and Italy, the citizens are pushing back against the government announcing forced vaccinations; the government of both nations are now openly attacking the French and Italian people.  In London, England, hundreds of thousands join together to stand in opposition to the removal of freedom.

All around the world people who will never give up their freedom are taking to the streets to demand liberty, sometimes resulting in violent clashes with law enforcement. The free people of the world are uniting in common purpose.  Videos Below:
