Operation 'Occupy White House' Enters Final Act

Authored by Tom Luongo via Gold, Goats, 'n Guns blog,

On any given day I vacillate between thinking The Davos Crowd is in desperation mode or believes they’ve got this and can ride the chaos unleashed to their preferred future.

And, sadly, men like Donald Trump and Boris Johnson are the ones picked to help us stop them. The White House has been a target since they lost control of it in November 2016.

Brexit has been attacked mercilessly since the June 2016 vote. The acceleration of the populist revolt against this future has, in turn, accelerated their plans to cancel national sovereignty, square the circles of projects like the European Union and activate their shock troops to openly attack the foundations of society.

We’ve all been breathlessly watching this on our iPhones for the past week.

Starting with the operation to lock people in their homes over a cold, they then denied the effectiveness of a cure which was easily found through research into SARS.

The cure was immediately politicized and marginalized by a now retracted study to radicalize people who weren’t thinking clearly.

Their hatred for Donald Trump was so all-consuming they wanted to believe the discredited Lancet Study without actually reading it or asking basic questions like why would people in power be so against a potential cure?

The social distancing, lock downs and mask-wearing short circuited people’s sanity and put them into hyper-emotional states, making them susceptible to a much more insidious virus, that of the mind.

Those who fell for this continue to defend mask-wearing even though the virus has burned out, masks only make healthy people hypoxic, and the cure for COVID-19 is cheap and effective.

Why? Because they are invested in their position emotionally, not logically.

Just like the looting and rioting over George Floyd. As I said in previous articles, no one disagrees about the death of George Floyd. There aren’t ‘Two movies here.” So what is really going on?

Bringing those two operations together into one meme we get this.

Meanwhile, after months of telling us to ‘socially distance’ and putting tape on the floors of all the stores to keep us six feet apart people are out looting and rioting in masks.

They have transferred the image system of mask-wearing Antifa radicals and thugs to normie, conscientious, white people properly outraged by police brutality and the looting by our politicians, bankers, CEOs and institutional office holders — the architects of our misery, in case you haven’t been keeping up.

Now everyone is properly confused between peacefully protesting but not social distancing.

So they show up in masks to virtue signal about COVID-19 while the masked looters and instigators incite insurrection and violence to destabilize further already fragile and overwhelmed public infrastructure.

And it looks from here like a well-executed plan. Or does it? Because at the same time people are asking these basic questions, like, “I thought it was wrong to go to the beach? Why is it okay to march en masse to the White House?”

So that means a cover statement is needed as more than 1200 ‘health care professionals’ (and community organizers, btw) send out the message that Racism is more important than coronavirus.

That is actually true since racism is a real problem and COVID-19 isn’t.

It also means George Soros declaring in his best Bank CEO voice that he has nothing to do with the rioting.

Yeah, and the bank is fully capitalized, right?

He has to do this because now he and his DNC cronies are the targets of official investigations into the funding tentacles behind Antifa.

It’s not that deep really, because that’s what animates the desire to believe the narratives coming from The Davos Crowd.

You know, Orange Man Bad.

Because ultimately what we’re seeing here is the evolution of Occupy Wall St. into Occupy White House, nothing more, nothing less.

And they are trying to create the Hobson’s Choice between a Joe Biden presidency which will restore their order to the White House to continue their plans or allow Antifa to storm D.C. and complete the color revolution started morning after the 2016 election.

The mask is the new black.

And looking at how sloppily this operation has played out over the past few months, despite the insane destruction engendered, it still isn’t likely to work.

Because no matter how bad things get, it’s clear little of this is Donald Trump’s fault. COVID-19 wasn’t anything close to bad enough to discredit Trump. It was the wrong virus but it was convenient.

In the end, they’ve just televised the wrong revolution, folks.

Every single issue that the Democrats used to control the moral high ground on, except abortion, has been burned up in the past week. Any good will Black Lives Matter had with working class white and Hispanic Americans is ash.

These people don’t want this chaos. And they are the vast majority of voters.

College students don’t vote and small cadres of soft soy boys playing revolutionary will not over run the suburbs and rural communities. They’ll just get shot.

The best this mind virus of late stage Comintern-inspired, fetishistic Marxism can do is get soft-headed soccer moms and celebrity victims of Harvey Weinstein to shave their heads.

Oh, sure, things have fundamentally changed and there will be people who will never feel comfortable going out in public again without a mask. But that will progressively be seen as them covering their fragile psyches since they can’t admit they’re losers.

Better to hide behind the virtue signal that they care about your health or your inequality, which, by the way, no one actually believes, Karen. So, take off the mask and just apologize already.

Better yet, shut up because the grown ups are talking and you might learn something.

It’s pathetic, but what do you expect from an infantilized society brought up to believe the Magic Money Tree can absolve us of the responsibility of our mistakes.

And the worst part about all of this is that these very people who think they are protesting against a system they are right to think is unjust, unfair and anathema to human civilization, are doing the heavy lifting for the people who run that very system.

Here’s the trailer for their future:

And, Trump, for all of his myriad faults, is the best shot we have of avoiding their totalitarian future. Not because he’s not a liar, a vane prick or even a good president, but because he knows The Davos Crowd is all even more full of shit than he is.

So, go forward with your Operation Occupy White House ye men of Davos. You pulled the trigger on this too early. Gun sales in the U.S. alone are enough to ensure Trump gets re-elected in November.

But it may be the 70 million people to date that watched Candace Owens own the bully pulpit surrounding the hypocrisy of George Floyd’s murder that now has them in a real panic.

Not that I think for one minute this will dissuade the people pushing this Operation forward will listen to a word of it. They are in too deep now. They are pot committed and will continue to stoke these fires until election day.

They are hoping for that magic moment that will turn the majority of the country away from Trump and back towards them. But with a majority of Americans believing the police are being too lenient on the rioters and 40% of black voters approving of Trump’s handling of the situation, good luck with that.

Numbers like that have Trump winning in an electoral college landslide.

This is why I’m torn between ascribing malice and incompetence for 2020 so far. Events have been coordinated to achieve a particular end, ending Trump, but so far they’ve done nothing other than push things in the exact opposite direction of that goal.

This Is Not A Revolution. It's A Blueprint For Locking Down The Nation

from ZeroHedge

Authored by John Whitehead via The Rutherford Institute,

“When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system’s game. The establishment will irritate you—pull your beard, flick your face—to make you fight. Because once they’ve got you violent, then they know how to handle you.”

- John Lennon

Brace yourselves.

There is something being concocted in the dens of power, far beyond the public eye, and it doesn’t bode well for the future of this country.

Anytime you have an entire nation so mesmerized by political theater and public spectacle that they are oblivious to all else, you’d better beware.

Anytime you have a government that operates in the shadows, speaks in a language of force, and rules by fiat, you’d better beware.

And anytime you have a government so far removed from its people as to ensure that they are never seen, heard or heeded by those elected to represent them, you’d better beware.

What is unfolding before us is not a revolution.

The looting, the burning, the rioting, the violence: this is an anti-revolution.

The protesters are playing right into the government’s hands, because the powers-that-be want this. They want an excuse to lockdown the nation and throw the switch to all-out martial law. They want a reason to make the police state stronger.

It’s happening faster than we can keep up.

The Justice Department is deploying federal prison riot teams to various cities. More than half of the nation’s governors are calling on the National Guard to quell civil unrest. Growing numbers of cities, having just barely emerged from a coronavirus lockdown, are once again being locked down, this time in response to the growing upheaval.

This is how it begins.

It’s that dystopian 2030 Pentagon training video all over again, which anticipates the need for the government to institute martial law (use armed forces to solve domestic political and social problems) in order to navigate a world bedeviled by “criminal networks,” “substandard infrastructure,” “religious and ethnic tensions,” “impoverishment, slums,” “open landfills, over-burdened sewers,” a “growing mass of unemployed,” and an urban landscape in which the prosperous economic elite must be protected from the impoverishment of the have nots.

We’re way ahead of schedule.

The architects of the police state have us exactly where they want us: under their stamping boot, gasping for breath, desperate for freedom, grappling for some semblance of a future that does not resemble the totalitarian prison being erected around us.

This way lies certain tyranny.

For just one fleeting moment, “we the people” seemed united in our outrage over this latest killing of an unarmed man by a cop hyped up on his own authority and the power of his uniform.

That unity didn’t last.

Indeed, it didn’t take long—no surprise there—for us to quickly become divided again, polarized by the misguided fury and senseless violence of mobs taking to the streets, reeking of madness and mayhem.

Deliberately or not, the rioters have directed our attention away from the government’s crimes and onto their own.

This is a distraction.

Don’t allow yourself to be so distracted.

Let’s not lose sight of what started all of this in the first place: the U.S. government.

More than terrorism, more than domestic extremism, more than gun violence and organized crime, the systemic violence being perpetrated by agents of the government constitutes a greater menace to the life, liberty and property of its citizens than any of the so-called dangers from which the government claims to protect us.

Case in point: George Floyd died at the hands of the American police state.

The callous, cold-blooded murder of the unarmed, 46-year-old black man by police is nothing new: for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, police knelt on Floyd’s neck while the man pleaded for his life, struggled to breathe, cried out for his dead mother, and finally passed out and died.

Floyd is yet another victim of a broken system of policing that has placed “we the people” at the mercy of militarized cops who have almost absolute discretion to decide who is a threat, what constitutes resistance, and how harshly they can deal with the citizens they were appointed to “serve and protect.”

Daily, Americans are being shot, stripped, searched, choked, beaten and tasered by police for little more than daring to frown, smile, question, challenge an order or just exist.

I’m talking about the growing numbers of unarmed people are who being shot and killed for just standing a certain way, or moving a certain way, or holding something—anything—that police could misinterpret to be a gun, or igniting some trigger-centric fear in a police officer’s mind that has nothing to do with an actual threat to their safety.

Killed by police for standing in a “shooting stance.” Killed for holding a cell phone. Killed for holding a baseball bat. Killed for opening the front door. Killed for being a child in a car pursued by police. Killed for approaching police while holding a metal spoon. Killed for running in an aggressive manner while holding a tree branch. Killed for crawling around naked. Killed for hunching over in a defensive posture. Killed because a police officer accidentally fired his gun instead of his taser. Killed for wearing dark pants and a basketball jersey. Killed for reaching for his license and registration during a traffic stop. Killed for driving while deaf. Killed for being homeless. Killed for brandishing a shoehorn. Killed for peeing outdoors. Killed for having his car break down on the road. Killed for holding a garden hose.

Now you can make all kinds of excuses to justify these shootings, and in fact that’s exactly what you’ll hear from politicians, police unions, law enforcement officials and individuals who are more than happy to march in lockstep with the police. However, as these incidents make clear, the only truly compliant, submissive and obedient citizen in a police state is a dead one.

Sad, isn’t it, how quickly we have gone from a nation of laws—where the least among us had just as much right to be treated with dignity and respect as the next person (in principle, at least)—to a nation of law enforcers (revenue collectors with weapons) who treat us all like suspects and criminals?

This is not how you keep the peace.

This is not justice. This is not even law and order.

This is certainly not freedom. This is the illusion of freedom.

Unfortunately, we are now being ruled by a government of psychopaths, scoundrels, spies, thugs, thieves, gangsters, ruffians, rapists, extortionists, bounty hunters, battle-ready warriors and cold-blooded killers who communicate using a language of force and oppression.

The facts speak for themselves.

We’re being ravaged by a government of ruffians, rapists and killers. It’s not just the police shootings of unarmed citizens that are worrisome. It’s the SWAT team raids gone wrong that are leaving innocent citizens wounded, children terrorized and family pets killed. It’s the roadside strip searches—in some cases, cavity searches of men and women alike carried out in full view of the public—in pursuit of drugs that are never found. It’s the potentially lethal—and unwarranted—use of so-called “nonlethal” weapons such as tasers on children for “mouthing off to a police officer. For trying to run from the principal’s office. For, at the age of 12, getting into a fight with another girl.”

We’re being held at gunpoint by a government of soldiers—a standing army. While Americans are being made to jump through an increasing number of hoops in order to exercise their Second Amendment right to own a gun, the government is arming its own civilian employees to the hilt with guns, ammunition and military-style equipment, authorizing them to make arrests, and training them in military tactics. Among the agencies being supplied with night-vision equipment, body armor, hollow-point bullets, shotguns, drones, assault rifles and LP gas cannons are the Smithsonian, U.S. Mint, Health and Human Services, IRS, FDA, Small Business Administration, Social Security Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Education Department, Energy Department, Bureau of Engraving and Printing and an assortment of public universities. There are now reportedly more bureaucratic (non-military) government civilians armed with high-tech, deadly weapons than U.S. Marines. That doesn’t even begin to touch on the government’s arsenal, the transformation of local police into extensions of the military, and the speed with which the nation could be locked down under martial law depending on the circumstances. Clearly, the government is preparing for war—and a civil war, at that—and “we the people” are the perceived enemy.

We’re being taken advantage of by a government of scoundrels, idiots and cowards. American satirist H.L. Mencken calculated that “Congress consists of one-third, more or less, scoundrels; two-thirds, more or less, idiots; and three-thirds, more or less, poltroons.” By and large, Americans seem to agree. When you’ve got government representatives who spend a large chunk of their work hours fundraising, being feted by lobbyists, shuffling through a lucrative revolving door between public service and lobbying, and making themselves available to anyone with enough money to secure access to a congressional office, you’re in the clutches of a corrupt oligarchy. Mind you, these same elected officials rarely read the legislation they’re enacting, nor do they seem capable of enacting much legislation that actually helps rather than hinders the plight of the American citizen.

We’re being locked up by a government of greedy jailers. We have become a carceral state, spending three times more on our prisons than on our schools and imprisoning close to a quarter of the world’s prisoners, despite the fact that crime is at an all-time low and the U.S. makes up only 5% of the world’s population. The rise of overcriminalization and profit-driven private prisons provides even greater incentives for locking up American citizens for such non-violent “crimes” as having an overgrown lawn. As the Boston Review points out, “America’s contemporary system of policing, courts, imprisonment, and parole … makes money through asset forfeiture, lucrative public contracts from private service providers, and by directly extracting revenue and unpaid labor from populations of color and the poor. In states and municipalities throughout the country, the criminal justice system defrays costs by forcing prisoners and their families to pay for punishment. It also allows private service providers to charge outrageous fees for everyday needs such as telephone calls. As a result people facing even minor criminal charges can easily find themselves trapped in a self-perpetuating cycle of debt, criminalization, and incarceration.”

We’re being spied on by a government of Peeping Toms. The government, aided by its corporate allies, is watching everything you do, reading everything you write, listening to everything you say, and monitoring everything you spend. Omnipresent surveillance is paving the way for government programs that profile citizens, document their behavior and attempt to predict what they might do in the future, whether it’s what they might buy, what politician they might support, or what kinds of crimes they might commit. The impact of this far-reaching surveillance, according to Psychology Today, is “reduced trust, increased conformity, and even diminished civic participation.” As technology analyst Jillian C. York concludes, “Mass surveillance without due process—whether undertaken by the government of Bahrain, Russia, the US, or anywhere in between—threatens to stifle and smother that dissent, leaving in its wake a populace cowed by fear.”

We’re being forced to surrender our freedoms—and those of our children—to a government of extortionists, money launderers and professional pirates. The American people have been repeatedly sold a bill of goods about how the government needs more money, more expansive powers, and more secrecy (secret courts, secret budgets, secret military campaigns, secret surveillance) in order to keep us safe. Under the guise of fighting its wars on terror, drugs, domestic extremism, pandemics and civil unrest, the government has spent billions in taxpayer dollars on endless wars that have sown the seeds of blowback, surveillance programs that have subjected all Americans to a surveillance society, and militarized police that have turned communities into warzones.

We’re being robbed blind by a government of thieves. Americans no longer have any real protection against government agents empowered to seize private property at will. For instance, police agencies under the guise of asset forfeiture laws are taking property based on little more than a suspicion of criminal activity.

And we’re being forced to live in a perpetual state of emergency. From 9/11 through the COVID-19 lockdowns and now the threat of martial law in the face of growing civil unrest, we have witnessed the rise of an “emergency state” that justifies all manner of government tyranny and power grabs in the so-called name of national security.

Whatever else it may be—a danger, a menace, a threat—the U.S. government is certainly not looking out for our best interests, nor is it in any way a friend to freedom.

When the government views itself as superior to the citizenry, when it no longer operates for the benefit of the people, when the people are no longer able to peacefully reform their government, when government officials cease to act like public servants, when elected officials no longer represent the will of the people, when the government routinely violates the rights of the people and perpetrates more violence against the citizenry than the criminal class, when government spending is unaccountable and unaccounted for, when the judiciary act as courts of order rather than justice, and when the government is no longer bound by the laws of the Constitution, then you no longer have a government “of the people, by the people and for the people.”

What we have is a government of wolves.

Our backs are against the proverbial wall.

The government and its cohorts have conspired to ensure that the only real recourse the American people have to express their displeasure with the government is through voting, which is no real recourse at all.

The penalties for civil disobedience, whistleblowing and rebellion are severe. If you refuse to pay taxes for government programs you believe to be immoral or illegal, you will go to jail. If you attempt to overthrow the government—or any agency thereof—because you believe it has overstepped its reach, you will go to jail. If you attempt to blow the whistle on government misconduct, there’s a pretty good chance you will go to jail.

For too long, the American people have obeyed the government’s dictates, no matter now extreme. We have paid its taxes, penalties and fines, no matter how outrageous. We have tolerated its indignities, insults and abuses, no matter how egregious. We have turned a blind eye to its indiscretions and incompetence, no matter how imprudent. We have held our silence in the face of its lawlessness, licentiousness and corruption, no matter how illicit.

We have suffered.

How long we will continue to suffer depends on how much we’re willing to give up for the sake of freedom.

America’s founders provided us with a very specific explanation about the purpose of government and a roadmap for what to do when the government abuses its authority, ignores our objections, and establishes itself as a tyrant.

We must choose between peaceful slavery (in other words, maintaining the status quo in servitude to the police state) and dangerous freedom. That will mean carving out a path in which we begin to take ownership of our government, starting at the local level, challenging the status quo, and raising hell—nonviolently—whenever a government official steps out of line.

We can no longer maintain the illusion of freedom.

As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, we are at our most vulnerable right now.

Lab-invented bio-terrorism: researchers discover unique, manmade viral manipulations of the COVID-19 strain

https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-06-02-researchers-discover-unique-manmade-viral-manipulations-covid-19.html

The Wuhan Institute of Virology in China is under worldwide scrutiny after a highly infectious strain of coronavirus began rapidly infecting Wuhan citizens late in 2019, before rapidly infecting people throughout the world.

Now a new Australian study finds that the precise RNA sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus contains man-made manipulations that could have only been created in a laboratory. The Wuhan Institute of Virology is home to questionable virus experiments that push the boundaries of scientific ethics. For years, Chinese researchers have been conducting gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses to manipulate the properties of viruses and to enhance their virulence and infectivity.

SARS-CoV-2 contains man-made manipulations to enhance its virulence in human cells

Five Australian scientists concur that the SARS-CoV-2 virus behind the COVID-19 pandemic contains unique, lab-invented properties that allow it to readily infect humans. The research, currently in the peer-review process, used computer modeling to understand how the virus infects various animals, including humans.

Lead researcher Nikolai Petroysky found evidence to suggest that the coronavirus had been manipulated by the lab in Wuhan because it contains an unusual protruding spike that allows it to readily infect human cells. When in contact with human cells, the manipulated coronavirus strain contains binding strength that “far exceeds” attachment capabilities observed in other animal cells.

“This, plus the fact that no corresponding virus has been found to exist in nature, leads to the possibility that COVID-19 is a human-created virus,” said Mr. Petrovsky, a professor at the College of Medicine and Public Health at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia.

“It is therefore entirely plausible that the virus was created in the biosecurity facility in Wuhan by selection on cells expressing human ACE2, a laboratory that was known to be cultivating exotic bat coronaviruses at the time,” he announced.

Cell surfaces contain angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). The highly infectious SARS-CoV-2 exploits this enzyme to gain easy access to the human cell. Once it gains easy entry, the virus can rapidly multiply in the cells. If the immune system of the individual does not properly respond, the viral load can become too much to bear, causing respiratory distress, low blood oxygen levels, systemic inflammation, and organ failure. Other equally-important innate immune defenses, such as the mannose binding lectins, could be compromised by external influences or genetic deficiencies, causing further complications to respiratory infection.

Human lung cells are specifically equipped with ACE2 receptors that detect viruses quickly so the immune system can respond. The SARS-CoV-2 strain targets the ACE2 receptors of human lung cells, breaching the first line of defense with ease. The study analyzed the binding capability of the spike protein on various animals, including mice, hamsters, pangolins, civets, cats, dogs, snakes, horses, tigers and cows.

“Overall, the data indicates that SARS-CoV-2 is uniquely adapted to infect humans, raising important questions as to whether it arose in nature by a rare chance event or whether its origins might lie elsewhere,” the report said.

Why are experts, who have ties the Wuhan lab, so quick to dismiss that COVID-19 was laboratory invented?

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who approved 7.3 million in funding to the Wuhan lab since 2015, has continuously denied that SARS-CoV-2 could ever have be artificially or deliberately manipulated.

“If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats and what’s out there now, [the scientific evidence] is very, very strongly leaning toward this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated,” Fauci told National Geographic earlier this month. “Everything about the stepwise evolution over time strongly indicates that [this virus] evolved in nature and then jumped species,” he affirmed.

But Dr. Fauci is not the end-all when it comes to investigating the origins of this highly infectious virus, which contains an abnormal spike protein and possesses unique gain-of-function properties. This new Australian study shines a light on the laboratory-made SARS-CoV-2 virus which has taken advantage of immune-compromised populations around the world.
