Former HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson appears on Fox News Sunday with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the latest and greatest madness from the Omicron variant talking points.   Dr. Carson accurately notes the medical community has conceded its mission to political bureaucrats within the healthcare system.

The approach toward SARS-CoV-2, writ large, has become a weird set of disparate political policies devoid of commonsense.  The medical and scientific community are continuing to lose credibility as their reactions and advice become fuel for even more political dictates, transparently disconnected from reality.  The Carson segment is 12:38 prompted, WATCH:

In the state of Oregon, the rules governing a declaration of a “public health emergency” expire after 180 days, and the rules and regulations contained inside the declaration cannot be extended by fiat, they require legislative approval.  One of the components of their current regulatory requirements is indoor mask wearing for the public.

To avoid the issue of an expiration of authority, the unelected health officials in Oregon are now proposing a permanent extension of the “public health emergency” that would permit them to continue the arbitrary rules and regulations they created within the emergency declaration.

As a consequence, the regulation requiring indoor mask wearing –along with other measures– would be extended until the bureaucrats removed it.

OREGON – […] Oregon’s indoor mask mandate was imposed from May 2020 to June 2021, lifted briefly, and then reimposed in August. The state’s current mandate is in place until February, but that apparently isn’t good enough in a state where 75% of adults have been fully vaccinated.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

~ Mike Vanderboegh

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

CNN has fired 9:00pm anchor Fredo saying: “Chris Cuomo was suspended earlier this week pending further evaluation of new information that came to light about his involvement with his brother’s defense. We retained a respected law firm to conduct the review, and have terminated him, effective immediately. While in the process of that review, additional information has come to light. Despite the termination, we will investigate as appropriate.” (link)

In response the anchor stated: “This is not how I want my time at CNN to end but I have already told you why and how I helped my brother. So let me now say as disappointing as this is, I could not be more proud of the team at Cuomo Prime Time and the work we did as CNN’s #1 show in the most competitive time slot. I owe them all and will miss that group of special people who did really important work.” (link)

It sounds like the MeToo investigation is ongoing.  Fredo is a notoriously unintelligent narcissist; and, well, grandma’s rule applies.

Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter were on air at CNN when the news broke.  Their broadcast video is below:

Neil Oliver hits the nail on the head again. I cannot recommend watching this monologue highly enough.  Eventually, when all government pressures are exhausted, the demand for mandatory vaccination only ends one way, with brute force.   However, they are few and we are the many.  WATCH:

Those who hold power have a tenuous grip.  One of the mechanisms they use to manage their control is division.  They need Omicron.  They need variants.  They need vaxxed -vs- unvaxxed. They need left -vs- right. They need identity politics.  They need class war.  They need racism. They need support from Big Tech.  They need to control the media.

They need compartmentalized scrap-grabbers constantly looking down; because if enough people start looking up and seeing through the division, the masses will find unity.

Those who hold tenuous power know the intelligence agencies alone will not be able to protect them from a unified people.   Neil Oliver is 100% correct.  They are few, we are many.

As Mark Twain famously noted: history may not always repeat, but it rhymes.  European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has taken the leading elements of a dark time in history and now openly advocates for their repetition.  Can these people not hear themselves?  This is madness.

Mrs. von der Leyen’s husband is Heiko von der Leyen, the Director of the US biotech company Orgenesis which specializes in medical research to include cell and gene therapies. 

Mr. Heiko von der Leyen organizes the scientific experiments, and then his wife Ursula advocates for forced vaccinations for all citizens within the European Union; and the removal of the prohibitive Nuremberg Code.   This would be a twisted and sick plot within a science fiction movie; however, it is very real.

Austria has already announced compulsory COVID vaccinations which will be enforced starting in February of 2022.  Greece has recently decided to fine all unvaccinated citizens €100 (£85) a month for their non compliance, and Germany announced Thursday a nationwide lockdown for the unvaccinated, as its leaders backed plans for mandatory vaccinations in the coming months. Germany’s incoming Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, said he supports compulsory vaccinations beginning in March 2022.

These European leaders are insane.

There is no better time than right now for Russia to invade Ukraine, and for the American people to tell our elected officials it’s none of our business.  If returning to the era where Fascist government fiats are acceptable to the people in Europe, then let them fight or fall – we have our own axe handles, tar and feathers to carry.

A report in the U.K. shows doctors worried about a spike in heart related medical issues.  However, the physicians in the national health service attribute the issue to stress caused by the pandemic and not the possibility that adverse vaccine reactions might be the common denominator.

(UK Standard) – […] Tahir Hussain, a senior vascular surgeon at Northwick Park Hospital in Harrow, said he has seen a significant rise in cases where he works.

He said: “I’ve seen a big increase in thrombotic-related vascular conditions in my practice. Far younger patients are being admitted and requiring surgical and medical intervention than prior to the pandemic.  “I believe many of these cases are a direct result of the increased stress and anxiety levels caused from the effects of PPSD [post-pandemic stress disorder]. (read more)

It’s weird how no-one is allowed to ponder the possibility that the vaccine may be causing the spikes in heart related medical issues.  Instead, the doctors grasp at the politically correct straws to explain the unexplainable.
