RECENT THOUGHTS AND IMPRESSIONS 051821

Taxed to the max. In this world, nothing is certain but death and taxes. That famous quote, of course, is from Founding Father Benjamin Franklin. Among all the problems with the Biden administration’s policy, they even want to raise taxes on your death.


=====================================
=====================================
Let’s hope Biden’s trillions proposed infrastructure comes with digital safeguards because right now, we’re vulnerable, America. The Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack this past weekend revealed the depth of our national vulnerability — not just of our oil pipelines but also potentially our electrical grid. And the band of hackers responsible, Darkside, hail from — you guessed it — Eastern Europe. How do we hold Russia responsible now? And more pressingly, why doesn’t America fight back? Kara Frederick, a former DOD counterterrorism analyst, explains the changing face of digital battle with the likes of China and Iran and how these countries leverage our culture wars against us. John Rossomando, a senior analyst for defense policy, also joins to detail the potential horrors of a nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack, which would leave America in a perpetual grid blackout with unthinkable casualties.

Last week the DC Metropolitan PD suffered a massive data leak after being hacked by a Russian-language syndicate. Among the leaks include law enforcement training on #antifa’s ideology and tactics. The material is surprisingly accurate. I’ll quote it here rather than screenshot:

DC MPD: "Antifa—the movement is a conglomeration of left-wing autonomous, militant anti-fascist groups in the United States. The principal feature of antifa groups is their use of direct action."

DC MPD: "They [antifa] engage in varied protest tactics, which include digital activism, property damage, physical violence, and harassment against those whom they identify as fascist, racist, or on the far-right."

DC MPD: "They [antifa] tend to be anti-capitalist & they are predominantly far-left & militant left, which includes anarchists, communists & socialists. Their stated focus is on fighting far-right & white supremacist ideologies directly, rather than through electoral means."

DC MPD : "This group by far is the most violent we have dealt with over the years."

DC MPD: "As you all are aware during the Inauguration of President Trump this was the group that destroyed property, assaulted any Trump supporter they ran into includ[ing] the elderly. They have no moral compass on who they go after."

This is the key conclusion in the internal DC Metropolitan Police training material on #antifa: "If you do not believe in what they [antifa] believe in, you are a target of violence."

Whoever compiled the report understands the most important things about antifa.

The internal training material from DC MPD on #antifa also includes various law enforcement strategies and tactics to counter them but I won't quote here given the information may be sensitive.

Coronavirus cases are plummeting in India thanks to new rules that promote Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to its massive population. Of course, the WHO and pharmaceutical companies are having fits. This is despite the fact that lives are being saved.

=====================================

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Irritated, the teacher reiterated that “a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible!”
The little girl said, “When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah.”
The teacher asked, “What if Jonah went to hell?”
The little girl replied, “Then you ask him.”

The legendary guitarist, a lockdown sceptic, said his hands and feet became 'useless' – prompting fears he would never play again. In a message to his music producer, he said: 'I took the first jab of AZ [AstraZeneca] and straight away had severe reactions which lasted ten days.' <LINK>

ABC 3340's Andrew Donley had COVID last June with most of the common symptoms. Eight months later, he was tested and his antibody levels were at 370. Donley went back to get tested again this week - almost one year since the initial infections - and his antibody count grew to 419.

"We do know that they continue to increase at eight months, nine months meaning in your case it's the highest level its been and it's been almost a year and that in all honesty among the thousands of people that I've tested for antibodies I have almost never seen somebody's antibodies come down, yet," Dr. Vaughn said.            <LINK>

YEP! TYPICAL FB

Copy and pasted from one of my groups.
Truer words were never spoken.
A little humor today:
Q: How many group members does it take to change a light bulb ?
• 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed.
• 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently.
• 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.
• 17 purists who use candles and are offended by light bulb discussions.
• 6 to argue over whether it's 'lightbulb' or 'light bulb'.
• Another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid.
• 22 to tell THOSE 6 to stop being jerks.
• 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is 'lamp'.
• 15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that 'light bulb' is perfectly correct.
• 49 to post memes and gifs (several are of Michael Jackson eating popcorn with the words added, “I’m just here for the comments.”)
• 19 to post that this page is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a light bulb page.
• 11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant here.
• 24 to discuss the merits of LED/swirly fluorescent light bulbs
• 44 to claim LED and fluorescent bulbs will kill you.
• 12 to post F.
• 8 to ask what F means.
• 7 to post 'Following' but there's 3 dots at the top right that means you don't have to.
• 3 to say "can't share"
• 2 to reply "can't share from a closed group"
• 36 People to post pics of their own light bulbs.
• 15 People to post "I can't see S$%^!" and use their own light bulbs.
• 6 to report the post or PM an admin because someone said "f÷×$"
• 4 to say "Didn't we go through this already a short time ago?".
• 13 to say "Do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs".
• 1 to bring politics into the discussion by adding that (insert politician of choice) isn't the brightest bulb. This usually takes place within the first three comments.
• 50 more to get into personal attacks over their political views.
• 5 admins to ban the light bulb posters who took it all too seriously.
• 1 late arrival to comment on the original post 6 months later and start it all over again.
