For those who think the conflict is not being orchestrated by the Obama-Biden administration, consider this.  European countries and our NATO allies are not as worried about Russia entering Ukraine.

The people closest to the situation including France and Germany, are not asking for the U.S. to get involved.  Indeed, you can make the argument based on their public statements, that European NATO countries are not that concerned.  Even Chuck Todd (NBC) sees this.

It is the Obama-Biden foreign policy team that is creating anxiety over the potential for Russia to enter Ukraine, not our NATO allies. If we end up in a conflict in Ukraine, it will be because the professional political class in Washington DC want us to be in a conflict in Ukraine, not the American people.

Russian President Vladimir Putin can easily see this dynamic.

(Via ABC) – The State Department ordered diplomats’ families Sunday afternoon to depart the U.S. embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine, amid heightened fears of a Russian attack on the country.  The embassy has also authorized non-emergency employees to depart, according to an internal cable obtained by ABC News.

In an updated travel advisory issued later Sunday, the State Department confirmed the drawdown and urged U.S. citizens in Ukraine to consider departing the country now using commercial flights.

There was a vehicle crash in rural Pennsylvania last week involving a truck transporting 100 monkeys to a CDC quarantine facility. {Story Here}  Three of the monkeys escaped in the crash and a search was conducted to locate them.  According to the update all of the missing monkeys have now been accounted for. The three escapees were euthanized.

This little detail from the local reporting is hopefully routine:

(Pennsylvania) […]  “Little monkeys, we got bears, we have coyotes, we have deer, you know all the time. A little 3-pound monkey doesn’t scare me, but why are they so concerned about it is what concerns me,” said Howie Lerch, Valley Township.

Friday night Newswatch 16 spoke with Michelle Fallon of Danville, who saw the entire accident. She jumped into action; helping both drivers and the loads they were carrying.

“I walk up back on the hill and this guy tells me, ‘Oh, he’s hauling cats. I said, ‘oh.’ So I go over to look in the crate and there’s this green cloth over it. So I peel it back, I stick my finger in there and go ‘kitty, kitty.’ It pops its head up and it’s a monkey,” Fallon said.

Fallon was contacted Saturday by the CDC and was told to monitor herself for any cold-like symptoms.

Earlier today tens of thousands of people, vaccinated and unvaccinated, attended the “Defeat The Mandates” rally in Washington DC.  Among the notable speakers was Dr. Robert Malone {Direct Rumble Link} and Robert Kennedy Jr. {Direct Rumble Link}.

Devin Nunes appears on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to discuss his new position as CEO of Truth Social and the challenges of building an anti-fragile platform. {Direct Rumble Link}

Having spent the last 14 months deeply organizing and constructing what Nunes is describing, I can appreciate the scale of this effort his team is attempting to create.  Building technology platforms that are anti-fragile to Big Tech is not easy and is extremely expensive.

As Nunes notes, vetting the system partners and providers is a priority.  Each small component must be reviewed as a vector, a window into the larger network of systems that are created.  It’s not just a matter of an independent network of servers, it is also a system of server capacity to handle millions of simultaneous user engagements and billions of Ajax calls per second.  CTH is based on a much smaller scale version, and even at this level it is a very complex undertaking.  WATCH:

Nunes is hopeful that Truth Social will be live as an independent social media system sometime before the end of the first quarter.  It will be interesting to see how they handle user privacy, user data and access points for user engagement.

They will likely have to build out the majority of their infrastructure from scratch, and they will burn through a great deal of investment capital along the way.  Fortunately, there are people inside Big Tech who will align with the independent objective.

Keep in mind that NBC polls are done by Mark Murray, a notorious manipulative pollster for media scripts.  As a result, when NBC presents a bad polling outcome for any democrat, you can be positive the outcome is far worse.  [POLL DATA HERE]

In addition to the 54% disapprove / 43% approve top line result, the NBC result shows approval of Joe Biden declined among Independents (from 68 percent in April to 36 percent now), Blacks (83 percent to 64 percent), those ages 18 to 34 (56 percent to 40 percent), Latinos (59 percent to 48 percent) and women (61 percent to 51 percent).  Chuck Todd cannot spin it. WATCH:

The White House, via Ron Klain, will try to put the Biden failures on Donald Trump.  However, it is clear the American people are holding Joe Biden accountable for his own policies and results.

CBS host Margaret Brennan is shocked, shocked, at the responses from her middle America panel when asked for an update on how their lives have been made better by the occupant of the White House.   Brennan tries to carry water for the Biden administration but fails miserably.

Curiously, and again feeding actual data that rises above the officially sponsored national propaganda, four of the six panelists are not vaccinated.  Three voted for Biden, and three are identified as Trump supporters.  However, all six panelists say their lives have gotten worse under Joe Biden.

All of the panelists agree their #1 issue is rising prices and the astronomical inflation that is hitting them hard.  Specifically, the out of control food prices are mentioned. All of the group also agree that Biden’s covid policy is a hot mess of conflicting gibberish that doesn’t make sense, and the spending on masks and home tests is ridiculous and of no value.

It is an interesting discussion to watch.

The U.S. shot goblin known as Anthony Faucissus appeared on ABC This Week to proclaim that a fourth booster shot may be needed for both the bottom line of his objectives and the bottom line of the Rx profit and loss statement. [Full Video Here]

Why anyone is still listening to this guy is beyond my comprehension.   It was clear from the first moment he was elevated in prominence, that Fauci has some seriously disturbed outlooks toward health policy. This is not a stable minded person. During the ABC segment, Faucissus advocated for a fourth booster and continued mask wearing in schools by students. WATCH:

At this point, the COVID-19 virus is akin to a seasonal flu.  We never went to any of these lengths with flu vaccines and mandates, and we certainly never forced students to wear masks over flu concerns.

The Branch Covidians may want to take these never-ending COVID booster shots, but the rest of the nation seems ready to move on.  Enough, is enough.

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 †

A massive convoy of truckers is headed toward Ottawa, Canada, to protest the vaccination regulations of the Trudeau administration against Truckers and all Canadian citizens. The scale of the Freedom Convoy has now garnered the attention of the ruling class, and it looks like a predictable conflict is looming.

Supporters of the trucker protest have raised over $1.8 million using a GoFundMe Effort to cover the expenses, fuel and lost income of the drivers.  However, do not be surprised if the Canadian government does not use law enforcement to try and stop their arrival.  The regime will not want to face pressure of the scale that is being assembled through a grass-roots movement.

Recent video shows how many truckers have joined the convoy that now stretches for miles.  WATCH:

There are concerns within the industry that political ramifications might reflect badly.  The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA), a seemingly leftist organization within the trucking industry, is now taking a position against the convoy’s intent to confront the government.

The CTA is trying to get the truckers to abandon their effort and released a public statement telling them the vaccine mandate is permanent, irreversible and the Trudeau government will not cede an inch, so stop and go home.
