Another big win.  Citing the recent federal court injunctions, the Cleveland Clinic has now suspended the vaccine mandate for its employees {Citation}.

PRESS RELEASE – A federal court recently issued a preliminary injunction, temporarily blocking enforcement of the COVID-19 vaccine federal mandate by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). That rule is now on hold.

In light of these developments, we are pausing the implementation of our COVID-19 vaccine policy, which required all employees and those who provide services with us to either receive the COVID-19 vaccine or an approved exemption with accommodations. (more)

Yesterday the White House occupant equivocated any current supply chain shortages to the 1980’s Christmas shortage of Cabbage Patch dolls {link}.  According to the White House narrative there are no shortages of essential products other than a few hard to find non-essential toys.

Obviously, that level of executive office propaganda is intended to gaslight a national audience into questioning themselves when they see shortages of highly consumable products like pet food and grocery store items.  Unfortunately for the White House the supply chain issues are of such widespread frequency even the allied narrative engineers cannot ignore them.   NBC reported that chicken tenders are “in short supply” at stores and restaurants as President Joe Biden’s supply chain crisis persists, during a segment on NBC’s “Today”  on 12/2/2021.

Strange how there’s no shortage of Marijuana in the supply chain…. And no, you are not crazy if you notice these things.

Earlier today, the White House occupant read a new script put into his teleprompter.  The purpose of the script is to outline a new set of federal actions to combat COVID-19 [WH Readout Here].  Within the script prepared for him, the authors noted a new treatment approach that is identical to the COVID mitigation plan put into place by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

Biden is proposing federal rapid response teams to set up regional sites where monoclonal antibody treatments can be delivered by outpatient staff.  The quick response teams and regional monoclonal antibody treatment sites have been in place in Florida for almost eight months.  During his script reading, the White House occupant did not want to give credit to the DeSantis approach, but the federal mitigation protocol is identical.  WATCH:

Not noted in the White House outline, but noted in the background phone call yesterday {link}, there is a slightly revealing new bribery policy to actually pay physicians to push vaccines into children through the use of Medicaid and CHIP funds:  “Medicaid and CHIP — the Children’s Health Insurance Program — will start paying healthcare providers to talk to families about the importance of getting their kids vaccinated.”  {link}

The federal government really wants kids to get the jabs, and HHS is now willing to pay doctors for the specific time they spend pushing the propaganda.  This is anecdotal, but when inquires were made about this approach to people familiar with the bureaucracy of the medicaid program, one explanation for the federal push on children was explained this way.   There are immediate adverse outcomes from the vaccine for a high number of specific age-groups.  The risk within the aggregate adverse outcome statistic can be mitigated (ie lowered) by expanding the total number of vaccinations using age groups with less likelihood of immediate adverse outcomes.

All the right moves….. We can expect the national media to go bananas as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has taken a bold step in advancement of federalism with authorization and funding for the formation of a state militia known as the Florida State Guard [Announcement Here].

During an event today in Pensacola Florida, the governor announced the creation of three new state-centric armories to support the new state guard units. One in the former airbase at Homestead, one in Gainesville and one in Malabar. As noted in the release, “The establishment of the Florida State Guard will further support those emergency response efforts in the event of a hurricane, natural disasters and other state emergencies. The $3.5 million to establish the Florida State Guard will enable civilians to be trained in the best emergency response techniques.”  Video of presser below:

PENSACOLA, Fla – Today, Governor Ron DeSantis announced more than $100 million in funding proposals to support Florida’s National Guard and establish the Florida State Guard, a civilian volunteer force that will assist the National Guard in state-specific emergencies.

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 †

The dramatic and cinematic promotional effort is so over the top as George Stephanopoulos plays the role of James Lipton interviewing Alec Baldwin in the grand performance of “I didn’t pull the trigger, no, no, no… never” the revolver just went off all by itself.  WATCH:

The cinematic effort by ABC here is, excuse the pun, likely to backfire.  It’s just perverse, twisted and creepy, considering that someone died.

Whoever gave Baldwin the advice to do this was just playing to his own vanity.   The one thing regular Americans can detect better than all other nations of people is fake efforts at authenticity.  That reality has been the Achilles heel of professional con-artists and leftists for decades; and thankfully, most people have retained that instinct.

GBNews is using the opportunity of an interview with President Donald Trump to market their relatively new media franchise.  Perhaps that is to be expected, but the amount of self-promotion from the network around this interview is a little weird.   That said, Nigel Farage and GBNews were given an extended interview with President Donald Trump from Mar-a-Lago for broadcast in the U.K.   The video from GBN is below.

The video is prompted to 09:00 to eliminate nine minutes of lead-in promotion.   Farage begins the GBN narrative by saying President Trump has been invisible to the international audience since he left office.

The interview is broken down into two parts. The first part discusses the 2020 election, the second part covers current events.  During each segment GBN injects MAGA and anti-MAGA voices into the discussion, as Farage says “to give balance” to the interview.  President Trump notes it is important to look back to the problems of 2020 in order to look forward to what is needed for the MAGA movement in the next election.  WATCH:

At some point you have to wonder if the Obama team behind the scenes is intentionally putting words in Biden’s teleprompter because they want him to be mocked in public.

Earlier today Joe Biden compared the shortage of essential products, pet foods, raw materials, petroleum products and chemicals in the U.S. (due to his self-inflicted energy policy) to the shortage of Cabbage Patch dolls in the 1980’s.  Seriously, you really cannot make this stuff up. WATCH:

I would hazard a guess the speechwriters debated using Tickle Me Elmo as an example, and then decided it was a just a smidge too far.

Good grief, this is enough to really make you wonder….  How long?

Sometimes the truth is hard to spot.  It’s like that little out of place thing peeking out from under the boulder of lies atop it.  Everyone focuses on the boulder, because it was purposefully placed there to get attention.  However, every once in a while someone -usually a new voice in the crowd- notices that little part they didn’t quite cover up well enough, and that is when you find out the truth.

Anthony Fauci appeared today at the White House briefing room to promote the Omicron fear narrative.  When building narratives, the timing of things is important.  Fauci was announcing the first case of the Omicron variant in California, that’s the boulder.  However, one of the usually silent and compliant journalists from the African news bureau had this pesky question (video at 16:50 prompted):

QUESTION: “Dr. Fauci, with all due respect, there’s zero case of COVID variant, of Omicron case, in Zimbabwe, in Namibia, in Lesotho, in Mozambique, what justifies imposing a travel ban on countries that have zero cases of the Omicron variant?”

FAUCI: “um,… er,… um,… You know, that’s a very good question, an important question, and, and we did struggle with that”….

… AND he never answered the question, because it wasn’t supposed to be asked.  No one was supposed to notice that little irreconcilable factoid highlighting how the Omicron fear boulder is a purposeful fraud.  They built this fear narrative called “Omicron” out of nothing, for a specific purpose.

The reporter wanted to push the issue, but the White House quickly interceded.   Funny that.
