Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams discuss an article by the Mises Institute about the pandemic shutdown. The article states: “Neither the Trump administration nor Congress has the legal authority to shut down American life absent at least baseline due process.” Judge Andrew Napolitano wrote that business closures, restrictions on assembly and movement, and quarantines are not constitutionally permissible under some magic “emergency” doctrine and that the federal government must show potential imminent harm involving specific infected individuals at a hearing or trial. Ron Paul says the pandemic is being used by politicians to spend money with wild abandon and to take away civil liberties. -GEG
State and local officials may claim, or even possess, lawful police powers to shut down their communities. We offer no analysis of such powers or claims under the myriad of state constitutions and authorizing legislation. But they should resist exercising these powers. The governor of Virginia, in particular, deserves admonition for unilaterally imposing a lengthy period of virtual house arrest.
We do not know, and cannot yet know, how many Americans will become sick or die from the virus. We do know that predictions regarding infection and death rates are highly unreliable. Even actual deaths attributable to COVID-19 are not so easy to count, as Italy has discovered. Age, general health, and comorbidity are difficult variables to assess, and people may die “with” the virus but not “from” it. It is also very difficult to assess the lethality of the virus relative to previously known types of flu and colds.
To date, COVID-19 deaths in the US are far fewer than deaths in ordinary flu seasons or from past pandemics such as the H1N1 virus. This understanding is critically important to put the virus, and the government response to it, in perspective. Even during past pandemics, depressions, and world wars, Americans went to work.
In 1850, French economist Frédéric Bastiat helped the world understand the “seen and unseen costs” of state policies. It is simple to see how quarantines and lockdowns will slow the spread of COVID-19. It is critical, but not so simple, to see the costs and harms caused by the economic shutdown.
Only then can we rationally understand the tradeoffs involved.
Jimmy Dore gave a riveting analysis about US wars and explained that the media gets Americans to cheer on provocations by lying to the public who have no idea what is happening with their foreign policy. And Americans have no idea that they have no idea.

Josh Stirling found a 7% aggregate mortality increase for each COVID vaccine dose received, meaning a “fully vaccinated” individual who took 5 doses increased their risk of [premature] death by 35%. Stirling previously noted that overall, all-cause mortality in the US rose in 2022 from 2021 by about 15%.
Brazil introduced legislation that would criminalize those who choose not to comply with the country’s forced vaccination schedule; the refusers will face a prison sentence of two to eight years.

Leftists blamed structural ‘white supremacy’ in policing for Nichols’ death, yet five black police officers were involved in the beating and were arrested. Larry Elder explained that virtually all of recorded police killings could be avoided if suspects do not resisted arrest.
Canada’s Bill C-26 is a cyber-security and infrastructure bill that is open-ended and fails to define terms so that it may be easily manipulated, it contains secrecy provisions, it imposes outrageous penalties, and it fails to provide due process.

Pronatalists are “pro-birth” activists and governments spooked by declining birth rates that fear the world is on the verge of demographic collapse. Pronatalism overlaps with transhumanism. The key is selecting for superior genetics. It is ironic that many wealthy elites have only one or no children, per to Elon Musk.

Offline is a documentary on the inevitability of the Earth being slammed by a mega solar flare – not the common type that interrupts communications and creates a light show in the Northern skies – but the big brothers thousands of times more powerful. These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (More)

House Bill 2502 that would give the director of the State Department of Health the power to declare a health emergency if authorized by the governor.

China has created a situation to possibly crash the American economy. This coupled with the paranoia spread by demo-crat politicians to create a scenario to defeat Trump in November. The chinese do NOT want to have to deal w/ Trump again.
