Almost 8,000 people experienced homelessness in Minnesota on a single night in January 2022.1 The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted how homelessness and housing instability can make it difficult to follow public health guidelines and prevent the spread of infectious disease.
Homelessness can also cause premature aging and sharply reduce life expectancy.
So as I am already boiling with disgust that our government and leaders are so full of themselves that they think we don’t see ! It is absolutely disgusting that Americans politicians don’t care about anything or anyone else they should be ashamed and we should too for allowing them to get away with the bullshit!
But now I see it coming… here comes the “HEROIC CDC” -Spare me!!!
Here’s the blatant hypocrisy pros rolling in! And here’s what they are feeding us 👇🏻
“With the support of the CDC Foundation and its donors, MDH has established a Center of Excellence on Public Health and Homelessness to better understand and address the causes of severe disease and death among people experiencing homelessness. This page provides information on the Center of Excellence as well as a resource hub for people experiencing homelessness and professionals and advocates who work with people experiencing homelessness.
This report reveals the tragic and ongoing premature loss of life among people experiencing homelessness in Minnesota and the steps we can take to reduce inequities.
Understanding the primary causes of severe disease and death among people experiencing homelessness in Minnesota
Supporting a statewide coalition of partners and developing and implementing policy recommendations to reduce severe disease and death among people experiencing homelessness
Strengthening statewide efforts to better link housing and healthcare data in identifying and responding to health risks caused or worsened by homelessness.
Informing the State of Minnesota’s plan to transform its approach to homelessness with a focus on health justice
The annual Point-in-Time count found that 7,917 people experienced homelessness on a single night in January 2022. This is nearly unchanged from 2019 and 2020 PIT counts. The 2021 statewide PIT count was lower than 2022, however, in 2021 only one region in Minnesota conducted an unsheltered count. While the total 2021 statewide PIT count was lower than 2022, the Emergency Shelter and Transitional Housing counts were higher in 2021 than in 2022.

What is the Point-in-Time (PIT) Count?
The PIT Count is Minnesota’s annual count of all persons experiencing homelessness, in both sheltered and unsheltered situations. The PIT Count also happens nationwide every year and is required by HUD, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development.
During the PIT Count there is a large-scale community-wide effort to identify folks experiencing homelessness that may not otherwise be counted, namely those that are unsheltered, or living on the street or in a place not meant for habitation (such as a car or abandoned building). In Minnesota, we also count those that are doubled up (which means they are “couch hopping” or temporarily staying with family or friends).
Why is it Important?
The PIT illuminates the impact we as a community are having on reducing and ending homelessness (similar to a census). While it isn’t feasible to count every single person experiencing homelessness every day, counting on the same set of days each year provides a snapshot for comparison over time. Consistent questions asked every year across the state help us examine trends, watch for changes, and help better understand how to target resources.
Here are some ways PIT data is used:
At a national level by HUD and other agencies that fund Homeless Services initiatives
At the state level to inform Minnesota’s statewide plan to prevent and end homelessness
By regions (each known as a Continuum of Care) and individual agencies to make plans for addressing homelessness
By the media and by research groups
Who is Involved in the PIT Count?
While it looks different from state to state and from region to region, in Minnesota, there is a large-scale collaboration that brings together lots of different stakeholders. This collaboration ensures that the count is coordinated, that it follows the directives required by HUD, and that there is a clear path for the data to be combined into one final count.
During the PIT Count, street outreach workers, agency staff, and volunteers survey those experiencing homelessness in unsheltered and doubled-up situations. The majority of the PIT Count data, however, comes from the data entered into Minnesota’s Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) by the Emergency Shelters, Transitional Housing programs, and Safe Haven programs that participate in HMIS. Emergency Shelter and Transitional Housing programs that do not participate in HMIS (such as domestic violence shelters) also contribute data to the PIT Count.
How Do We Get the Numbers?
THERE ARE TWO COUNTS – SHELTERED AND UNSHELTERED
There are two counts that make up the PIT Count in Minnesota and different groups that collect the data for each count:
A sheltered count for those experiencing homelessness who are in Emergency Shelters, Transitional Housing, or Safe Haven programs on the night of the PIT. The sheltered count includes data from agencies that participate in HMIS as well as data from non-HMIS projects (such as domestic violence projects).
An unsheltered and doubled-up count of those experiencing homelessness who are on the street, in a place not meant for habitation, or temporarily staying with friends or family. The unsheltered and doubled-up count is collected by street outreach teams, volunteer surveyors, school liaisons, and other community partners using a face-to-face survey.
WAYS TO ADMINISTER THE COUNT
For Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, and Safe Haven agencies that participate in HMIS, the night of the PIT is business as usual! The data you enter into HMIS about the people your program served on the night of the PIT will be included in the final PIT Count.
For agencies with Emergency Shelter and Transitional Housing programs that do not participate in HMIS, data may be collected through a face-to-face survey or (rarely) aggregate numbers. Each CoC will communicate with the non-HMIS agencies in their region to connect them with the PIT process.
The unsheltered and doubled-up count is collected through face-to-face surveys of folks experiencing homelessness.
AFTER PIT NIGHT
After PIT night, data entry continues, and data review, compilation, and cleanup begins! ICA, CoC Coordinators, and local PIT leads will reach out to agencies to clarify answers and identify data cleanup needs. To get a final PIT Count that is as accurate as possible, we rely on all those who are participating in the count to be diligent about collecting and entering data correctly!
What’s My Role?
I volunteered to help an agency survey people experiencing homelessness
My agency participates in HMIS
My agency has an Emergency Shelter or Transitional Housing program, but we don’t enter data into HMIS
I’m a CoC Coordinator or local PIT Lead
I work at a school that is helping with the PIT Count
What’s ICA’s Role?
As the State System Administrator for HMIS in Minnesota, ICA is integrally involved with the PIT. We provide resources, develop tools to collect the data, guide the statewide process, and work in coordination with local partners in each Continuum of Care to ensure the count is a smooth process for all involved AND that the numbers that result from the surveys are aggregated and submitted to HUD.
PIT in the Media
ICA has compiled a media toolkit to help our partners engage the media to bring increased awareness to the PIT.
Biden Signs Order for 24-7 Surveillance of all US Citizens?

Where were you on March 9, 2022…
…when President Biden signed the death warrant on American freedom?
On that day, in a hushedceremony at the White House…
…without the approval of Congress, the states, or the American people…
Buried in his Order are a few paragraphs, titled Section 4…
The language in Section 4 makes Order 14067 the most treacherous act by a sitting President in the history of our republic.
Section 4 reads…
Sec. 4. Policy and Actions Related to United States Central Bank Digital Currencies. (a) The policy of my Administration on a United States CBDC is as follows:
(i) Sovereign money is at the core of a well-functioning financial system, macroeconomic stabilization policies, and economic growth. My Administration places the highest urgency on research and development efforts into the potential design and deployment options of a United States CBDC. These efforts should include assessments of possible benefits and risks for consumers, investors, and businesses; financial stability and systemic risk; payment systems; national security; the ability to exercise human rights; financial inclusion and equity; and the actions required to launch a United States CBDC if doing so is deemed to be in the national interest.
(ii) My Administration sees merit in showcasing United States leadership and participation in international fora related to CBDCs and in multicountry conversations and pilot projects involving CBDCs. Any future dollar payment system should be designed in a way that is consistent with United States priorities (as outlined in section 4(a)(i) of this order) and democratic values, including privacy protections, and that ensures the global financial system has appropriate transparency, connectivity, and platform and architecture interoperability or transferability, as appropriate.
(iii) A United States CBDC may have the potential to support efficient and low-cost transactions, particularly for cross-border funds transfers and payments, and to foster greater access to the financial system, with fewer of the risks posed by private sector-administered digital assets. A United States CBDC that is interoperable with CBDCs issued by other monetary authorities could facilitate faster and lower-cost cross-border payments and potentially boost economic growth, support the continued centrality of the United States within the international financial system, and help to protect the unique role that the dollar plays in global finance. There are also, however, potential risks and downsides to consider. We should prioritize timely assessments of potential benefits and risks under various designs to ensure that the United States remains a leader in the international financial system.
(b) Within 180 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, the Secretary of Commerce, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, the Director of National Intelligence, and the heads of other relevant agencies, shall submit to the President a report on the future of money and payment systems, including the conditions that drive broad adoption of digital assets; the extent to which technological innovation may influence these outcomes; and the implications for the United States financial system, the modernization of and changes to payment systems, economic growth, financial inclusion, and national security. This report shall be coordinated through the interagency process described in section 3 of this order. Based on the potential United States CBDC design options, this report shall include an analysis of:
(i) the potential implications of a United States CBDC, based on the possible design choices, for national interests, including implications for economic growth and stability;
(ii) the potential implications a United States CBDC might have on financial inclusion;
(iii) the potential relationship between a CBDC and private sector-administered digital assets;
(iv) the future of sovereign and privately produced money globally and implications for our financial system and democracy;
(v) the extent to which foreign CBDCs could displace existing currencies and alter the payment system in ways that could undermine United States financial centrality;
(vi) the potential implications for national security and financial crime, including an analysis of illicit financing risks, sanctions risks, other law enforcement and national security interests, and implications for human rights; and
(vii) an assessment of the effects that the growth of foreign CBDCs may have on United States interests generally.
(c) The Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Chairman of the Federal Reserve) is encouraged to continue to research and report on the extent to which CBDCs could improve the efficiency and reduce the costs of existing and future payments systems, to continue to assess the optimal form of a United States CBDC, and to develop a strategic plan for Federal Reserve and broader United States Government action, as appropriate, that evaluates the necessary steps and requirements for the potential implementation and launch of a United States CBDC. The Chairman of the Federal Reserve is also encouraged to evaluate the extent to which a United States CBDC, based on the potential design options, could enhance or impede the ability of monetary policy to function effectively as a critical macroeconomic stabilization tool.
(d) The Attorney General, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury and the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, shall:
14MRE0 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 49 / Monday, March 14, 2022 / Presidential Documents
(i) within 180 days of the date of this order, provide to the President through the APNSA and APEP an assessment of whether legislative changes would be necessary to issue a United States CBDC, should it be deemed appropriate and in the national interest; and
(ii) within 210 days of the date of this order, provide to the President through the APNSA and the APEP a corresponding legislative proposal, based on consideration of the report submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury under section 4(b) of this order and any materials developed by the Chairman of the Federal Reserve consistent with section 4(c) of this order.
Because Section 4 sets the stage for…
Legal government surveillance of all US citizens…
Total control over your bank accounts and purchases…
And the ability to silence all dissenting voices for good.
They’re coming for your money. And it’s already started.
In this new war on freedom, the Dems aren’t coming for your guns. No, they’re thinking much bigger than that.
My name is Jim Rickards.
I’m a former advisor to the Pentagon, the White House, Congress, the CIA, and the Department of Defense. I’m also an attorney, investment banker and author of 7 books on currencies and international economics.
When places like Fox, CBDC (Central Bank) or Bloomberg want to know what’s about to shakeup the global economy, they call me.
Most of all, like you, I’m a proud American patriot.
The disturbing predictions you’re about to see are based on my independent research and my contacts in the intelligence community.
I’ve never made this kind of public announcement before…But it’s my duty to pull the alarm.
This is what I believe Section 4 of Biden’s Order means for all Americans… it is laying the groundwork for…
The US dollar being made obsolete.
Soon, your cash will be confiscated – or will simply be worthless paper.
The cash currency we have now will be replaced with a new, programmable digital tokens.
But the truth is, few outside the deep state recognize Biden’s move for what it really is.
If my predictions are correct, this so much more sinister than simply replacing the cash dollar with a new digitized version…
Friend, this new currency will allow for total control of all American citizens.
Because every “digital dollar” will be programmed by the government…
…that means they will be able to “turn on or off” your money at will.
Not only that, but they’ll be able to TRACK and RECORD every purchase you make.
This is very different than “online banking”…
And it has nothing to do with crypto.
I’ll explain everything in a moment, but what you need to know now is…
AOC has already publicly declared her support for a government controlled “spyware” currency…
The digital dollar means Dems would be able to punish any contribution, purchase, or even social media comment they don’t like.
And this isn’t something years away…
It’s starting now.
Biden’s secret army has been hard at work, and…
US trials are already well underway.
In fact, our government is racing to catch up…
China and Russia have already launched pilot programs for their own digital currencies.
More than half the countries in the world and almost 90% of central banks are testing or exploring a digital currency right now.
In my opinion, it’s not a question of “Will the US implement a digital dollar?”
It’s just a question of “When”…
And the answer to that is…
It’s already happening.
Under Project Lithium and Project Hamilton, the new “spyware” currency has been quietly tested for several years.
There’s no stopping it.
I predict we’ll see a digital dollar hit circulation next year – or 2024 at the latest.
But I do have some good news for you.
It’s almost too late, but you can still protect your assets and your freedom…
…if you know exactly what to do.
In the next 84 seconds, I’m going to show you everything.
You’ll see the ugly proof of their plan.
You’ll see what this could mean for you and your life savings.
I’m also going to show you the ONLYway I trust to protect your money and your freedom from Biden’s new surveillance machine.
I call it “Asset Emancipation” – and it’s easy to do and understand.
If you choose to take advantage of it…
Asset Emancipation is a way to legally secure – and even GROW – your wealth…
While hiding it safely away from Democrat surveillance and control.
It’s a loophole designed to outsmart a new spyware currency…
While potentially increasing your personal wealth.
But you must know exactly how to do it.
And that’s what I’m going to show you today.
I must warn you – some of this will be difficult to watch.
But if you care about your money and your freedom, please do not turn away.
Thanks to what you’ll witness here…
You’re about to be much more prepared for the coming storm than your neighbors…
…and that’s a very powerful position to be in.
Imagine if you were German in 1923 and able to somehow avoid the 29,500% hyperinflation that made their money worthless…
Or if you could have “opted out” of Roosevelt’s confiscation of all private gold in 1934…
That’s the power of Asset Emancipation.
And I’ll show you everything right now.
Thanks to Section 4 of Biden’s Order 14067 ordering urgent research into developing the digital dollar…I believe the US dollar, the standard of the world since 1792…
…will be REPLACED by a new currency, the digital dollar.
These new electronic currencies are called CBDCs – or “central bank digital currencies”.
(I call the digital dollar “Biden Bucks” because I want him to take full credit for what I consider to be crimes.)
This is not like the money in your online bank account…
No, this is new and different.
Every digital dollar will be a programmable token, like bitcoin or other crypto currencies.
But there’s a big difference…
Cryptocurrencies are decentralizeddigital currencies. Instead, if it plays out the way I see it…
Biden Bucks will have the full backing of the U.S. Federal Reserve.
They will REPLACE the cash (“fiat”) dollar we have now…
And will soon be the sole, MANDATORY currency of the United States.
When Biden Bucks are rolled out, many experts – myself included…
…believe they will begin an era of total government control and surveillance.
This is not hyperbole.
This would dramatically expand the power and influence of the federal government… essentially acting as a new type of “spyware”.
With Biden Bucks, the government will be able to force you to comply with its agenda.
Because if you don’t, they could turn off your money.
This won’t be like freezing a bank account, it will be so much easier.
Because Biden Bucks will be “digital tokens”programmed at the source…
…they could be “turned on or off” at will, with just a keystroke.
And they could be reprogrammed at any time.
With Biden’s secret surveillance army running the show, the anti-freedom implications are almost limitless…
For example, Biden Bucks could be programmed to allow only certain kinds of purchases…
Imagine what this new world could look like…
You want to keep your internal combustion engine car?
Your digital dollars suddenly won’t pay for gas.
Instead, you can be forced to buy an electric vehicle…
That’s just the tip of the fascist iceberg…
They can force you to get vaccinated…
They can force you into solar…
They can force you to use less water or heat…
They can force you to eat fake, plant-based meat…
They can control where you are allowed to travel…
They can stop you purchasing certain items – like guns, ammo, or survival supplies.
They can control to which candidates you are allowed to donate.
And they’ll know every single place you ever spend money. Forever.
America would become a surveillance state like China or North Korea.
Every single aspect of your life could be controlled…
Because they’ll control your money.
In fact, I fully expect them to implement a “social credit rating” like in China.
Say the “wrong” thing on social media…
Buy the “wrong” thing…
Subscribe to the “wrong” news channel…
Give money to the “wrong” candidate…
And your rating drops…
Suddenly, your Biden Bucks are frozen or disappearing from your account…
This is already happening in China.
There, a low social score gets you officially labeled “untrustworthy”.
They can take away your ability to travel…
…restrict your internet access…
…deny your family the best schools or jobs…
They may even take away your pets.
I’m not kidding.
All of this is going on today.
But that’s China… an oppressive, communist country.
Could this really happen in a democracy?
Just ask the truckers in Canada.
Because that’s exactly what happened to them.
Their Prime Minister Trudeau was granted “special emergency powers” during the peaceful trucker protests over his forced vaccination law…
He then ordered all banks to freeze the accounts of the protestors…
AND anyone who aided them in any way.
And it wasn’t just a threat…
That fascist froze the bank accounts of non-violent protestors.
He locked up over $6 million in private accounts for protesting a forced vaccination law the truckers believed violated their sovereign human rights.
Think about that…
They protested his policies…
So he took away their money.
Think our current government would love to do that?
Me too.
Under Biden Bucks, we’ll lose many of our God-given American rights.
They’ll be replaced by total government surveillance and control.
For almost all Americans, this will be the death of freedom. Forever. Almost all Americans…
Not you.
You won’t be a victim.
You can beat Biden’s surveillance army at its own game.
The key is what I call “Asset Emancipation”.
Asset Emancipation was created to help you maintain and even grow your personal wealth…
…regardless of what happens to the cash dollar.
Even better…
It’s designed to legally hide your assets away from government surveillance…
And allow you to potentially profitfrom the turmoil.
For the record…
Asset Emancipation has nothing to do with giving up your passport or fleeing the country…
It also has nothing to do with offshore banks or foreign currency trading…
And you won’t hear about it from your financial advisor, because it’s almost certain…
…he has no clue about this loophole for legally “opting out” of the Biden Bucks surveillance program.
I’ll reveal everything in a moment, but I want to expose how deep this new conspiracy runs…
Programmable currencies will soon replace ALL the cash currencies on earth.
More than HALF of countries and almost 90% of central banks are exploring or testing a digital currency right now.
This includes Japan, Germany, India, France, the UK, Russia, Australia, Brazil, Canada, and China.
In fact, China’s new digital currency – the e-yuan – was used for millions of dollars’ worth of transactions at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
The Economist has announced the rise of government-backed digital currencies, warning they will “shift power from individuals to the state”.
Even an institution as conservative as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) admits these new currencies are “The future of money”.
Make no mistake…
No matter the outcome of any future elections…
This is happening.
The storm is closing in.
If my research and predictions are correct…
Soon, there will be no more cash.
The dollar we know will be dead and buried.
Replaced by programmable Biden Bucks.
The secret surveillance army has been working on this for years…
The U.S. Federal Reserve has been quietly partnering with scientists at MIT to develop a digital currency to replace the dollar.
They call this initiative Project Hamilton.
Then, this year, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation, the clearinghouse for US stocks, bonds, and other security trades…
…quietly launched Project Lithium.
Project Lithium is testing how a digital dollar will work in the financial markets once the current dollar is dead.
Project Lithium is partnering with the Digital Dollar Project…
…a joint effort started in 2020 between Accenture, US regulators, and tech leaders to create the digital dollar…
Then, on March 29, 2022, just days after Biden’s Order 14067 was signed…
Representative Stephen F. Lynch introduced H.R. 7231, the Electronic Currency and Secure Hardware Act.
This act, co-sponsored by 4 other Democrats…
…ORDERS the Secretary of the Treasury to develop a digital dollar.
I believe we’ll see the first rollout of the new digital dollar – Biden Bucks – in 2023 or 2024.
And it’s right on schedule.
You see, about every 40-50 years there’s a major disruption in US monetary policy…
…that increases government power at the expense of citizen rights.
The Gold Reserve Act of 1934 was the first currency quake.
In that shocking act of fascism…
Democrat President Roosevelt ordered all US citizens to hand in their gold.
Yes, privately owning gold was made illegal.
The government wanted it all.
If you failed to comply, you faced huge fines or werejailed.
Interesting how this fascist plot isn’t taught in our history classes, isn’t it?
Then came currency quake number 2…
…the Gold Standard Act of 1971, when the US abandoned the gold standard for good.
What happened then?
The dollar got destroyed, rampant inflation continued…
And the power of the Federal Reserve increased dramatically.
I predict The Death of the Dollar is the third and final currency quake.
But it will be more dangerous and far-reaching than any that came before.
If the US dollar is replaced by Biden Bucks spyware, I believe…
The government will be able to track, control, and limit your spending.
Soon, there will be no more privacy. Zero. Gone.
The government will know your whereabouts and habits at all times…
…because they will know exactlywhere all your money is spent.
This new state surveillance army will be everywhere.
In history, I don’t know of one example of a government with access to a citizen surveillance system that hasn’t used it.
Not one.
In fact, surveillance is the true driving force behind the new Chinese digital currency.
China already uses facial recognition software, mobile phone GPS, and the purchase of plane or train tickets to track their citizens.
They use this to detect “anti-state activities” and to arrest anyone who does not strictly follow the orders of Chairman Xi.
Now, can you imagine the Dems having this kind of total government control?
In fact, the coronavirus pandemic gave them a playbook for how to control a population.
They’ve been practicing for 2 years…
Now, thanks to Biden’s Order 14067…
I predict the US will soon be a surveillance state like China.
On March 26, 2022, Fox News sounded the alarm:
“[Biden Order 14067] is a truly remarkable and deeply troubling development.”
“If a [digital dollar] were to be created, it would dramatically expand the power and influence of the federal government and Federal Reserve…
“…in ways most Americans won’t understand until it’s too late to roll it back.”
With Biden Bucks as our mandatory currency…
…it would be so easy for the government to confiscate assets and freeze accounts at will.
In fact, Biden Bucks could allow one party to hold on to power… forever.
Imagine…
Merrick Garland could say, “We have the voting records. We know if you voted for Trump.”
“And if you did, we’re going to disable your bank accounts.”
Does that sound like a stretch in this day and age?
I don’t think so either.
There’s more…
Your retirement savings could disappear.
They’ll do this through the introduction of a negative interest rate.
This is not far-fetched.
In fact, I believe it’s extremely likely.
Here’s why: It’s simple economics.
The government doesn’t want us holding on to cash.
They need us spending, spending, and spending some more to prop up their house of cards economy.
So, how do you stop people holding on to cash?
Step 1: You eliminate cash altogether – with the Biden Bucks digital currency.
Then, Step 2:You introduce a negative interest rate on all accounts.
After all, you can program a digital currency to do anything, at any time.
With the negative interest rate, if you don’t spend your money, it starts shrinking.
Think of it this way…
How do you slaughter cattle?
You need to get them into a chute first – otherwise they’ll all run away.
Biden Bucks are a digital cattle chute.
You cut off access to all other forms of currency…
You do away with everything except this programmable, trackable digital dollar…
And then you can march us all right to the slaughterhouse.
They’ll control how and where you spend your money.
And if you don’t spend it, they’ll make it disappear.
Friend, all of this is underway right now.
I believe we are at the dawn of the total surveillance state.
There’s no stopping it.
There’s no escaping it.
Unless.
Unless you know how to legally “sidestep” Biden Bucks…
And protect your savings and your freedoms.
I call it Asset Emancipation.
And that’s what I’m going to show you now.
I hold a master’s degree in International Economics and another in Taxation.
I got my law degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Law.
I worked at the highest levels of Wall Street and international finance for 40 years.
I held senior positions at Citibank, Caxton Associates, and the hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management.
I’ve been inside the West Wing of the White House.
I helped negotiate the end of the Iranian crisis for the Reagan administration.
The Nixon administration asked me to help craft the Petrodollar Accord.
I’ve attended strategic sessions in the “vaults” – the secure meeting rooms inside the Pentagon.
Here’s a photo of me there. (This is all I’m allowed to show you of the inside.)
In fact, I hosted the first ever financial war games for the Pentagon.
I’ve been asked to the CIA Directors’ secure conference room on the seventh floor of Langley headquarters.
I’ve been inside the U.S. Treasury and spoke privately with Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner.
I’ve been invited into the Federal Reserve and had conversations with Ben Bernanke.
Here’s a snapshot of our discussion…
I really don’t like to brag.
But my experience and connections give me a unique insight into the coming storm…
And when it comes to showing you how to protect your wealth and freedom, you want someone with my credentials.
Don’t trust anyone with less.
And I have good news today…
You can still protect yourself, your family, and your wealth.
Just like I have.
But there’s one thing:
You must act now.
There’s almost no time left.
They’re currently working on Biden Bucks…
Look, my eyes are wide open about the problems in America, but I love our country.
I refuse to stand back and let the fascists take control.
Not without a fight.
That’s why I’ve created something you won’t find anywhere else on earth.
A true gameplan for sidestepping Biden Bucks…
…for protecting your savings…
…for outsmarting Biden’s surveillance army…
And emerging stronger, safer, and potentially wealthier than before.
It’s called Asset Emancipation.
And it’s a financial survival plan for the coming storm.
Asset Emancipation allows you to legally hide your money from a Biden Bucks surveillance state…
And even better than that…
It was designed to help you PROFIT from the turmoil it will bring…
My background inside the US intelligence community, investment banks, and global currency markets…
…has shown me how smart investors could profit from the digital dollar disaster.
That’s exactly what Asset Emancipation was designed to do.
Now, of course, you don’t have to do this.
And you can sit back and trust our government if you like…
But by watching this full presentation…
I know you’re a lot smarter than the average Joe.
You see that America will soon be transformed into a total surveillance state…
And that you could be forced to comply with the Dem’s fascist agenda.
Unless you know exactly how to defeat them.
That’s why, today, I’m going to share my full Asset Emancipation system with you.
I feel it’s my responsibility as a patriot and sovereign citizen.
I’ve written up the full step-by-step gameplan in a new report called…
The Asset Emancipation System: Securing Your Sovereign Wealth and Freedom.
In a moment, I’m going to show you how to claim your own copy of The Asset Emancipation System report…
Inside, you’ll see step-by-step details on how to escape the coming surveillance state…
…including how to:
1. Create an off-the-grid fortune: Secure $1.1 million in wealth inside a hollow “soda can” safe
2. Save your God-given freedoms: Have liquidity and spendable wealth without using Biden Bucks
3. Grow your personal wealth: You’ll get specific investment upside as events unfold
4. Ensure you maintain your wealth — regardless of external conditions
And that’s just the start of what you’ll get…
The bottom line is this…
I believe having some of your assets secured — and “off the grid” — now…
…will mean you’re able to prevent the government control that comes with a digital currency.
If that’s what you want to do…
My Asset Emancipation system was designed for you.
Not only that, but everything you’ll see is completely legal.
It might infuriate Biden, AOC, and the state surveillance army…
…but there’s nothing they can do about these survival “loopholes”.
Your wealth – and your freedom – will be secure.
And you’ll be the only one on your block who knows these secrets.
Feel free to share them with your most trusted friends and loved ones.
They’ll be so grateful – and you can relish saving them from the new surveillance state.
All you have to do is say “YES, Jim” to this special opportunity today…
And I’ll send you your own personal copy of my new report The Asset Emancipation System… FREE.
That’s right.
I’m not asking you to pay one red penny for my new strategy…
…for securing, and even growing, YOUR personal wealth.
I’ve set aside one free copy for you.
And I’ll explain exactly how to claim it in a moment…
But I want to give you one more thing first.
Anyone who has followed my career knows I trust the strength of gold.
Gold is the most stable long-term form of money the world has ever known.
Throughout human history, there have been thousands of fiat currencies (or “paper money”).
And as far as I can tell, 100% of fiat currencies have eventually lost ALL value.
But gold?
Gold has been accepted as currency across the globe for more than 5,000 years.
And when digital currencies radically alter the world banking system…
I’d rather put my faith in 5,000 years of human history.
What kind of precious metals should I buy and in what quantities?
Which kinds of metals should I avoid?
Where are the best places to buy gold (and other precious metals)?
And what are the best — and safest — ways to store them to avoid theft or government confiscation?
Because of the imminent replacement of the dollar with a digital currency…
And to help you invest in gold before prices potentially skyrocket, and it’s too late…
I’ve created a way for you to claim a free copy of this report today…
…so you can have all the information you need to invest in precious metals the RIGHT way.
That’s still not all I have for you…
You see, I’ve learned of another little-appreciated asset that’s a liquid form of wealth…
It can’t be tracked or traced…
It’s completely legal and easy to find (if you know where to look)…
Over time, its value has steadily grown.
But very few people know anythingabout its investment potential…
You’re about to be one of the few.
I believe you must include this “secret” asset in any off-the-grid portfolio…
I tell you exactly what it is and how to get it in…
America’s Secret Currency: Get in on the Ultimate Off-the-Grid Asset.
Imagine an agencyso secretive and so corrupt that they can literally get away with criminal sexual abuse of children. Then imagine you are forced to pay for this agency and despite knowing that their agents are abusing children — even admitting to it — they are avoiding any kind of legal ramifications. Well, there is no need to imagine because that and more, it is happening within the CIA and no one is doing anything about it.
Last December, through multiple FOIA lawsuits, Buzzfeed News obtained hundreds of internal CIA reports that detailed the rampant abuse. According to the reports, despite multiple agents and contractors, at least 10, being caught in child sex abuse situations, federal prosecutors have brought no charges.The abusers remain protected by the agency.
It’s been nearly a year since this information became public yet there has been no investigation and essentially no interest by anyone in D.C. or the political establishment to hold them accountable.
Buzzfeed reports that most of the cases were referred to US attorneys for prosecution but in an apparent quid pro quo scenario, the US attorneys send the cases back to the CIA to “handle them internally.” As a result of this scenario, these child-abusing monsters face no legal ramifications. At most, according to the report, they may lose their job or security clearance.
As Buzzfeed points out, some of these crimes are utterly horrifying and involve toddlers.
One employee had sexual contact with a 2-year-old and a 6-year-old. He was fired. A second employee purchased three sexually explicit videos of young girls, filmed by their mothers. He resigned. A third employee estimated that he had viewed up to 1,400 sexually abusive images of children while on agency assignments. The records do not say what action, if any, the CIA took against him. A contractor who arranged for sex with an undercover FBI agent posing as a child had his contract revoked.
Unfortunately, after that bill was introduced, it went nowhere — just like the prosecution of the child predators inside the CIA.
This rampant abuse should be on the front page of every newspaper in the country, yet it remains buried under divisive headlines about Pelosi’s husband and Kanye.

This explanation brilliantly vindicates and validates every single American who has questions and doubts about the 2020 election. Beautifully done.
So, without further ado, here’s the best explanation you’ll ever read on why so many Americans believe the 2020 election was a sham:
I think I’ve had discussions w/enough Boomer-tier Trump supporters who believe the 2020 election was fraudulent to extract a general theory about their perspective. It is also the perspective of most of the people at the Capitol on 1/6, and probably even Trump himself.
Most believe some or all of the theories involving midnight ballots, voting machines, etc, but what you find when you talk to them is that, while they’ll defend those positions w/info they got from Hannity or Breitbart or whatever, they’re not particularly attached to them.
Here are the facts – actual, confirmed facts – that shape their perspective:
The FBI/etc spied on the 2016 Trump campaign using evidence manufactured by the Clinton campaign. We now know that all involved knew it was fake from Day 1 (see: Brennan’s July 2016 memo, etc).
These are Tea Party people. The types who give their kids a pocket Constitution for their birthday and have Founding Fathers memes in their bios. The intel community spying on a presidential campaign using fake evidence including forged documents is a big deal to them.
Everyone involved lied about their involvement as long as they could. We only learned the DNC paid for the manufactured evidence because of a court order. Comey denied on TV knowing the DNC paid for it, when we have emails from a year earlier proving that he knew.
This was true with everyone, from CIA Dir Brennan & Adam Schiff – who were on TV saying they’d seen clear evidence of collusion w/Russia, while admitting under oath behind closed doors that they hadn’t – all the way down the line. In the end we learned that it was ALL fake.
At first, many Trump people were worried there must be some collusion, because every media & intel agency wouldn’t make it up out of nothing. When it was clear that they had made it up, people expected a reckoning, and shed many illusions about their gov’t when it didn’t happen.
We know as fact:
a) The Steele dossier was the sole evidence used to justify spying on the Trump campaign,
b) The FBI knew the Steele dossier was a DNC op,
c) Steele’s source told the FBI the info was unserious,
d) they did not inform the court of any of this and kept spying.
Trump supporters know the collusion case front and back. They went from worrying the collusion must be real, to suspecting it might be fake, to realizing it was a scam, then watched as every institution – agencies, the press, Congress, academia – gaslit them for another year.
Worse, collusion was used to scare people away from working in the administration. They knew their entire lives would be investigated. Many quit because they were being bankrupted by legal fees. The DoJ, press, & gov’t destroyed lives and actively subverted an elected admin.
This is where people whose political identity was largely defined by a naive belief in what they learned in Civics class began to see the outline of a Regime that crossed all institutional boundaries. Because it had stepped out of the shadows to unite against an interloper.
GOP propaganda still has many of them thinking in terms of partisan binaries, but A LOT of Trump supporters see that the Regime is not partisan. They all know that the same institutions would have taken opposite sides if it was a Tulsi Gabbard vs Jeb Bush election.
It’s hard to describe to people on the left (who are used to thinking of gov’t as a conspiracy… Watergate, COINTELPRO, WMD, etc) how shocking & disillusioning this was for people who encourage their sons to enlist in the Army, and hate people who don’t stand for the Anthem.
They could have managed the shock if it only involved the government. But the behavior of the corporate press is really what radicalized them. They hate journalists more than they hate any politician or gov’t official, because they feel most betrayed by them.
The idea that the press is driven by ratings/sensationalism became untenable. If that were true, they’d be all over the Epstein story. The corporate press is the propaganda arm of the Regime they now see in outline. Nothing anyone says will ever make them unsee that, period.
This is profoundly disorienting. Many of them don’t know for certain whether ballots were faked in November 2020, but they know for absolute certain that the press, the FBI, etc would lie to them if there was. They have every reason to believe that, and it’s probably true.
They watched the press behave like animals for four years. Tens of millions of people will always see Kavanaugh as a gang rapist, based on nothing, because of CNN. And CNN seems proud of that. They led a lynch mob against a high school kid. They cheered on a summer of riots.
They always claimed the media had liberal bias, fine, whatever. They still thought the press would admit truth if they were cornered. Now they don’t. It’s a different thing to watch them invent stories whole cloth in order to destroy regular lives and spark mass violence.
Time Mag told us that during the 2020 riots, there were weekly conference calls involving, among others, leaders of the protests, the local officials who refused to stop them, and media people who framed them for political effect. In Ukraine we call that a color revolution.
Throughout the summer, Democrat governors took advantage of COVID to change voting procedures. It wasn’t just the mail-ins (they lowered signature matching standards, etc). After the collusion scam, the fake impeachment, Trump people expected shenanigans by now.
Re: “fake impeachment”, we now know that Trump’s request for Ukraine to cooperate w/the DOJ regarding Biden’s $ activities in Ukraine was in support of an active investigation being pursued by the FBI and Ukraine AG at the time, and so a completely legitimate request.
Then you get the Hunter laptop scandal. Big Tech ran a full-on censorship campaign against a major newspaper to protect a political candidate. Period. Everyone knows it, all of the Tech companies now admit it was a “mistake” – but, ya know, the election’s over, so who cares?
Goes w/o saying, but: If the NY Times had Don Jr’s laptop, full of pics of him smoking crack and engaging in group sex, lots of lurid family drama, emails describing direct corruption and backed up by the CEO of the company they were using, the NYT wouldn’t have been banned.
Think back: Stories about Trump being pissed on by Russian prostitutes and blackmailed by Putin were promoted as fact, and the only evidence was a document paid for by his opposition and disavowed by its source. The NY Post was banned for reporting on true information.
The reaction of Trump people to all this was not, “no fair!” That’s how they felt about Romney’s “binders of women” in 2012. This is different. Now they see, correctly, that every institution is captured by people who will use any means to exclude them from the political process.
And yet they showed up in record numbers to vote. He got 13m more votes than in 2016, 10m more than Clinton got! As election night dragged on, they allowed themselves some hope. But when the four critical swing states (and only those states) went dark at midnight, they knew.
Over the ensuing weeks, they got shuffled around by grifters and media scam artists selling them conspiracy theories. They latched onto one, then another increasingly absurd theory as they tried to put a concrete name on something very real.
Media & Tech did everything to make things worse. Everything about the election was strange – the changes to procedure, unprecedented mail-in voting, the delays, etc – but rather than admit that and make everything transparent, they banned discussion of it (even in DMs!).
Everyone knows that, just as Don Jr’s laptop would’ve been the story of the century, if everything about the election dispute was the same, except the parties were reversed, suspicions about the outcome would’ve been taken very seriously. See 2016 for proof.
Even the courts’ refusal of the case gets nowhere w/them, because of how the opposition embraced mass political violence. They’ll say, w/good reason: What judge will stick his neck out for Trump knowing he’ll be destroyed in the media as a violent mob burns down his house?
It’s a fact, according to Time Magazine, that mass riots were planned in cities across the country if Trump won. Sure, they were “protests”, but they were planned by the same people as during the summer, and everyone knows what it would have meant. Judges have families, too.
Forget the ballot conspiracies. It’s a fact that governors used COVID to unconstitutionally alter election procedures (the Constitution states that only legislatures can do so) to help Biden to make up for a massive enthusiasm gap by gaming the mail-in ballot system.
They knew it was unconstitutional, it’s right there in plain English. But they knew the cases wouldn’t see court until after the election. And what judge will toss millions of ballots because a governor broke the rules? The threat of mass riots wasn’t implied, it was direct.
a) The entrenched bureaucracy & security state subverted Trump from Day 1,
b) The press is part of the operation,
c) Election rules were changed,
d) Big Tech censors opposition,
e) Political violence is legitimized & encouraged,
f) Trump is banned from social media.
They were led down some rabbit holes, but they are absolutely right that their gov’t is monopolized by a Regime that believes they are beneath representation, and will observe no limits to keep them getting it.
Trump fans should be happy he lost; it might’ve kept him alive
May 25 (UPI) — Drivers in the United States will see the most expensive gas prices in seven years, experts say.
While gas prices have stabilized since the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack, AAA expects prices to hover above $3 per gallon in many parts of the United States. That’s a rise of 17 cents per gallon over the past month.
The last time prices were this high for Memorial Day weekend was 2014.
The Energy Information Administration said Monday gas prices are up by at least $1 compared to 2020 in virtually every segment of the country.
“AAA expects 37 million Americans to travel, mostly by car and plane, for the Memorial Day holiday weekend,” AAA spokeswoman Jeanette McGee said in a statement.
“That is a 60% increase over last year’s holiday and a strong indication that summer travel is going to be largely popular.
The national average on Tuesday was $3.04 per gallon, according to AAA. California has the most expensive gas ($4.17 per gallon) and Mississippi and Louisiana have the least expensive fuel ($2.71).
“With the increase in travel demand, gas prices are going to be expensive no matter where you fill up, so plan ahead,” McGee added.
“Holiday road trippers may come across some gas stations with low fuel supply in popular travel destinations, like beaches, mountains or national parks.”
Let’s “CIRCLE-BACK” to May 18th and see what the analysis looked like then. I think President Trump knows what he’s talking about.
Cost of gas in U.S. rises to highest level in 6 years due to pipeline attack
May 18 (UPI) — The average price for gasoline in the United States has risen to the highest level in years and is well over $3 per gallon.
As of Tuesday, the national average is $3.04 per gallon — the highest average in six years.
AAA says the cyberattack that disrupted the Colonial Pipeline last week has been a significant factor in the rise. The pipeline, which carries gasoline from the Gulf Coast to the East Coast, resumed operating last weekend.
The disruption created limited supplies of gasoline in Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, AAA noted, and prices in those states climbed as much as 21 cents per gallon last week.
Over the past week, the national average increased 8 cents.
With the pipeline returning to normal operation, gas prices in the southeastern states and the nation have stabilized, AAA said.
“The Southeast will continue to experience tight supply this week as terminals and gas stations are refueled,” AAA spokesperson Jeanette McGee said in a statement.
“Despite the higher pump prices, Americans still take their road trips, but just may not travel as far as originally planned, or go to their planned destination and spend a little less.”
AAA says crude oil prices and gasoline demand will be the greatest factors in how far gas prices will climb.
Virginia and Tennessee have seen the greatest increases over the past week (18 cents), followed by Alabama (17 cents), Maryland (16 cents), Mississippi (12 cents), West Virginia (10 cents) and Texas (10 cents).
As of Tuesday, California has the most expensive gas in the United States, at $4.14 per gallon, followed by Hawaii, Nevada and Washington state. Louisiana, $2.72 per gallon, has the nation’s least expensive gas, followed by Mississippi, Texas and Missouri. (0)
Now then…………………………….
He KNEW……….He always does!
President Donald Trump Thursday insisted, while gas prices are creeping up to new highs for Memorial Day weekend, that the United States is “energy independent no more,” but while he was in the White House, prices remained low.
“I’m sorry to say the gasoline prices that you will be confronted with are far higher than they were just a short number of months ago where we had gasoline under $2 a gallon,” Trump said on his website.
“Remember as you’re watching the meter tick, and your dollars pile up, how great of a job Donald Trump did as President. Soon Russia and the Middle East will be making a fortune on oil, and you will be saying how good it was to have me as your President.” “Wasn’t it great to be energy independent, but we are energy independent no more,” he added. “Shame, shame, shame. Other than that, have a great Memorial Day Weekend!”
I was having a conversation with someone about this topic just this morning. Isn’t it ironic that Biden had no problem whatsoever closing down the pipeline and putting all those hard working US citizen’s out of a great paying job in which to support their families? And THEN… TURNS AROUND and gives Putin exactly what he wants…??? And to top it off when we were the number one in the gas industry while President Trump was ruling the roost, now we have no status! Am I the only one who thinks something stinks to high heaven here? Is it just me that gets the notion that there’s more than meets the eye here?
The REAL question is…. 👇
WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT TO BIDEN THAT THE US IS NOW GOING TO BE FORCED TO BUY OUR GAS FROM SAUDI ARABIA NOW?????
I read this article from The Daily Caller and thought… WOW Biden’s response is actually quite disturbing!
Joe Biden reportedly test drove an F-150 Lightning, Ford’s new all-electric truck, on Tuesday.

Biden made a visit to one of Ford’s driving courses and test-drove the new electric truck with Secret Service tailing him, according to CNN.
Biden eventually pulled up to the waiting press corps, saying, “This sucker’s quick.” When he was asked if he would buy one of the trucks, he responded that he would, adding that the truck went from zero to 60 miles per hour in approximately 4.4 seconds. This appears to be information he was not supposed to share, according to CNN.
“Mr. President, can I ask you a quick question on Israel before you drive away, since it’s so important?” one reporter asked.
“No, you can’t. Not unless you get in front of the car as I step on it,”Biden responded.
After inciting a few laughs, Biden said “I’m only teasing” and took off again across the course.

This is just a heads up regarding health insurance from a lady in my hometown in Texas. Her husband works for an insurance company and according to him the health insurance companies are now asking a lot of questions regarding Covid-19 and the vaccines. Apparently they are getting leary because the vaccine is only approved for emergency use and has not gone through complete testing and because of all the deaths that that they are hearing about.
I can not validate the subject because I haven’t researched it yet. I just saw her message. However, I see no reason why she would make it up.
I’m including screenshots of her message so you can read it for yourself. If you have any feedback on this feel free to leave it in the comments!
The Colonial Pipeline, which runs 5,500 miles and supplies almost half the gas, diesel, and jet fuel for the East Coast was hit with a successful ransomware attack. That means that the hackers got access to the files, prevented Colonial Pipeline from being to get their own data, and offered to allow them access again for a fee. Of course, you can’t trust a criminal in a situation like that, so even paying the fee wouldn’t guarantee that the problem would go away.

In this case, it’s a particularly large problem. That’s why the U.S. Department of Transportation has issued an emergency declaration for all the states that could potentially be impacted by this along with DC. This pipeline supplies fuel to Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia.null
Will this lead to a significant increase in the cost of gas in those states? We don’t know for sure at this point. According to the experts, it’s still possible for them to fix the problem and get the gas flowing against before it creates a shortage. The cyber division of the Department of Homeland Security believes a group based out of Russia called DarkSide is believed to be responsible. Previously, that group has hit an Office Depot subsidiary called CompuCom and a division of Enterprise Rent-a-Car. Typically, they ask for millions of dollars to return access to the hacked files.
Although we certainly don’t want to see higher gas prices, what we should really be concerned about is governments across the globe taking note of this weakness. If we ever do get into a serious conflict with Russia, China, Iran, or one of our other adversaries, cyberattacks could make a lot of sense. In a serious conflict, they could do an awful lot of damage and in a less serious one, they could use it to send the message that they can cause us pain with their cyberattacks just like we can cause them pain with our military. This country is not effectively hardened against cyber-attacks and as we speak, you can be sure that there bad actors across the globe that have already penetrated key systems in the United States and are just waiting for the right time to turn the switch. This is actually a major vulnerability for our nation and no, our government is not even remotely close to being able to properly deal with it.
Overall, the CDC paid $628,000 for data that gave them access to location data from at least 55 million cellphone users, the Epoch Times reported.
According to the contracts that were obtained by the publication, the contracts that were approved under emergency review due to the COVID-19 pandemic were aimed at providing the CDC “with the necessary data to continue critical emergency response functions related to evaluating the impact of visits to key points of interest, stay at home orders, closures, re-openings and other public health communications related to mask mandate, and other merging research areas on community transmission of SARS-CoV-2.”
The tracking data would be used to “assess home-by-hour behaviors (i.e. curfew analysis) by exploring the percentage of mobile devices at home during a specific period of time,” the CDC said. The data could also be used by integrating it with other information “to provide a comprehensive picture of movement/travel of persons during the COVID-19 pandemic to better understand mandatory stay-at-home orders, business closure, school re-openings and other non-pharmaceutical interventions in states and cities.”
The CDC also said that it could use data to connect the forced closures of bars and restaurants with COVID-19 infections and death rates. The organization also said that it will also try to assess the impact of state restrictions on close contact between people outside of their homes.
The data could also be used to monitor whether people comply with the mandated or recommended quarantines after they arrive from a different state. Also, the data could be used to examine the correlation between mobility patterns and spikes in COVID-19 cases at facilities such as churches, concerts and grocery stores, as well as movement restrictions such as curfews to show “patterns” and “compliance.”
BREAKING: House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rep Mark Green tells us he has just learned all Democrats on the committee are pulling out from attending a field hearing about the border crisis in Texas on Wednesday. He says that’s despite several Dems confirming attendance, & inviting their own minority witness, who is confirmed on the federal panel. US Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz is also set to testify. Chairman Green says he was given no reason for the abrupt pullout. Chairman Green’s statement below. #FoxNews
Homeland Security committee Dems confirm that they will not be attending the border hearing
They say that they never agreed to attend in the first place so they are not “pulling out.”
It’s time America takes ACTION! SPEAK UP!
Call: Rep Mark Green’s office 202-224-3121 (Capitol switchboard)
Speak to the staff of ranking committee chair, this gets your message to him directly…. otherwise, our voices are diluted 🇺🇸
STATEMENT from Ranking Member Bennie Thompson (D):
“After careful consideration, Committee Democrats have decided not to participate in the Republicans’ field hearing this week. Unfortunately, it has become clear that Republicans planned to politicize this event from the start, breaking with the Committee’s proud history of bipartisanship. Instead of a fact-finding mission to develop better border security and immigration policies, Republicans are traveling to the border to attack the Administration and try to score political points with their extreme rhetoric – despite having voted against the resources border personnel need. Committee Democrats are in regular contact with Department leadership and stakeholders on the ground and will be taking substantive site visits to the border – including as soon as this week.”
The Biden Border plan is to shift illegal immigration from mass numbers of illegal aliens rushing the border to paroling or releasing those same illegal aliens into the United States with employment authorization and access to welfare, preparing the illegals for eventual de facto or legislative amnesty. The legislative amnesty is off the table with the Republican House, but the de facto amnesty remains in play.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Imagine it! All this is allowed by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas.
The Luge press’s is only too happy to run cover for the lies. Just a few days ago the Lying Press, Associated Press in this case, touted that the numbers of border crossers is down significantly, as if the announcements of the parole amnesty convinced millions of illegal aliens enroute through Central America or flying into Mexico from Africa, Asia, and South America to just return home and try and use the app to enter, rather than try their luck at the border. Actually, luck has nothing to do with it; coyotes who work for the cartels have guaranteed entry to the United States, no matter how many attempts it takes.
A sharp drop in illegal border crossings since December could blunt a Republican point of attack against President Joe Biden as the Democratic leader moves to reshape a broken asylum system that has dogged him and his predecessors.
A new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows some support for changing the number of immigrants and asylum-seekers allowed into the country. About 4 in 10 U.S. adults say the level of immigration and asylum-seekers should be lowered, while about 2 in 10 say they should be higher, according to the poll. About a third want the numbers to remain the same.
The decrease in border crossings followed Biden’s announcement in early January that Mexico would take back Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans under a pandemic-era rule that denies migrants the right to seek asylum as part of an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19. At the same time, the U.S. agreed to admit up to 30,000 a month of those four nationalities on humanitarian parole if they apply online, enter at an airport and find a financial sponsor.
Instead, the reality is that the Fiscal Year 2023 is heading tobreak the record of illegal immigration from the last two fiscal years, when over 5 million illegal aliens entered or attempted to enter the United States, with most being released into the United States.
Migrant encounters at the southern border have already surpassed the one million mark for Fiscal Year 2023, multiple Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sources tell Fox News, marking an unprecedented pace for encounters.
As of Friday, the total migrant encounters at the border were at 1,008,217 for the fiscal year, which began in October. Of those, 87.8% were single adults. Just 328,454 were expelled under Title 42 — the pandemic-era protocol that allows border agents to rapidly expel border crossers.
There were more than 1.7 million encounters overall in FY 2021 and over 2.3 million in FY 2022. The first months of FY 2023 have outpaced those of the prior fiscal year. This time last year, numbers for FY22 through March 1 were 839,819—well under the 1 million mark.
Meanwhile, there have been 354,522 known “gotaways”—illegal immigrants who have evaded Border Patrol agents but have been detected on another form of surveillance. In FY 2022, there were nearly 600,000gotaways.
One may argue that the last few days have educated the illegal aliens and the numbers are dropping. But sadly for the Biden Regime and the Lying Press, reality has struck, and badly. Illegal aliens for whom the CBP One app is not available or not working have decided they are coming in, by hook or by crook, but mostly by violence. In fact, they are reverting to the common tactic that appeared during the early Clinton Regime, rushing the Ports-of-Entry (POE), the facilities where pedestrians and motor vehicles enter the United States from Mexico. Such tactics began in the 90s, but occasionally happened more recently as well under the Obama Regime and the Trump Administration.

Following The HighWire’s exposé spotlighting the large role WHO Chief Scientist Jeremy Farrar had in suppressing the lab origin debate in 2020, a Congressional Committee, and now the rest of the mainstream media, are zeroing in on the former Director of the Wellcome Trust, calling for his resignation from the W.H.O.
Stiff resistance is building against the incoming chief scientist of the World Health Organization because of his ties to a February 2020 paper that quashed a theory the coronavirus originated from a lab in Wuhan, China.
Many experts are calling for Dr. Jeremy Farrar, former director of the Wellcome Trust nonprofit in London, to be fired even before he takes over his post as the WHO’s chief scientist in the second quarter of this year, The Daily Mail reported Tuesday.
Emails uncovered by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic showed the British doctor made direct edits to a scientific paper called “Proximal Origin,” which was prompted by Dr. Anthony Fauci, then the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, and written in February 2020 to quash the theory the coronavirus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
A memo by the subcommittee dated Sunday said, “Dr. Farrar is not credited as having any involvement in the drafting and publication of Proximal Origin. According to new evidence obtained by the Select Subcommittee, Dr. Farrar led the drafting process and in fact made direct edits to the substance of the publication.”
Dr. Richard Ebright, a microbiologist at Rutgers University, told The Daily Mail, “In this context, the appointment of Dr. Farrar as a chief scientist at the WHO is a major unforced error. The WHO would do well to review and revoke the appointment.”
Dr. David Livermore, a microbiologist at the University of East Anglia in Great Britain, also said the agency might want to reconsider hiring Farrar.
”If he is to lead the WHO, it would be wise for Dr Farrar to commission investigations of COVID’s origins entirely independent of the organization’s hierarchy, himself included,” Livermore told The Daily Mail.
The select subcommittee said in the memo Farrar made a crucial edit on Feb. 17, 2020, the day Proximal Origin was to be published. In an email to Kristian Andersen, a professor at Scripps Research, Farrar suggested to change from “unlikely” to “improbable” that “SARS-CoV-2 emerged through laboratory manipulation of an existing SARS-related coronavirus.”
Robert Moffit, who has written extensively on the origins of the coronavirus for the Heritage Foundation, told The Daily Mail, “I don’t think he should take the job.”
“He should refrain from taking any position like that until these matters are cleared up and published,” Moffit said. “We don’t want someone to take over the WHO who may… refrain from taking a position until all these issues [on Covid origins] are cleared up.”
House votes to declassify info about origins of COVID-19
By LISA MASCARO
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House voted unanimously Friday to declassify U.S. intelligence information about the origins of COVID-19, a sweeping show of bipartisan support near the third anniversary of the start of the deadly pandemic.
The 419-0 vote was final congressional approval of the bill, sending it to President Joe Biden’s desk. It’s unclear whether the president will sign the measure into law, and the White House said the matter was under review. … If signed into law, the measure would require within 90 days the declassification of “any and all information relating to potential links between the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the origin of the Coronavirus Disease.”
That includes information about research and other activities at the lab and whether any researchers grew ill.
WASHINGTON—The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic held a hearing on “Investigating the Origins of COVID-19” to gather facts about the origination of the virus that has claimed nearly seven million lives globally. At the hearing, several of the witnesses pointed to how the science, facts, and evidence point to a lab leak in Wuhan.
Key Hearing Takeaways
Knowing the origin of COVID-19 is fundamental to helping predict and prevent future pandemics.
Select Subcommittee Chairman Brad Wenstrup opened the hearing by emphasizing how knowing the origin of the virus is essential to helping predict and prevent future pandemics, protecting health and national security, and preparing the United States for the future. He pledged that the Select Subcommittee will thoroughly, responsibly, and honestly investigate the origin of COVID-19.
Dr. Jamie Metzl, Ph.D., senior fellow at the Atlantic Council said in an opening statement, “If we do not get to the bottom of what went wrong with the COVID-19 pandemic, if we fail in our efforts to fearlessly understand all shortcomings and shore up the vulnerabilities this crisis has so clearly exposed, the victims of the next pandemic, our children and grandchildren, will ask us why we failed to protect when we knew what was at stake and had the chance.”
Mounting evidence continues to show that COVID-19 may have originated from a lab in Wuhan, China.
Dr. Robert Redfield, former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), testified how science indicates COVID-19 infections were likely the result of an accidental lab leak in Wuhan. His conclusion is based on the biology of the virus itself and unusual actions in and around Wuhan in 2019, including gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).
Nicholas Wade—the former science and health editor at the New York Times, and former editor of Science and Nature—testified how Drs. Fauci and Collins used unverified data to dismiss the lab leak theory in favor of natural transmission.
Jamie Metzl testified how China’s government destroyed samples, hid records, imprisoned Chinese journalists, prevented Chinese scientists from saying or writing anything on pandemic origins without prior government approval, actively spread misinformation, and prevented an evidence-based investigation.
The mainstream media downplayed—and even denied—the scientific theory that COVID-19 emerged from the WIV.
Nicholas Wade testified about the campaign to discredit the lab leak theory. He pointed out that scientists kept in line with the natural origin camp led by Drs. Fauci and Collins because of their dependence on government grants and that the media failed to challenge the forced narrative.
All witnesses agreed that the possibility of COVID-19 originating from a lab is not a conspiracy theory.
Member Highlights
Subcommittee Chairman Dr. Wenstrup (R-Ohio.) asked witnesses whether it is critical to investigate the origin of COVID-19. All witnesses answered yes. Chairman Wenstrup also raised concern about gain-of-function research, which Dr. Redfield defined during the hearing as altering a pathogen to increase either transmissibility or pathogenicity.
Subcommittee Chairman Wenstrup: “In your expert opinion was the Wuhan Institute conducting gain-of-function research on a batch of coronaviruses?”
Dr. Redfield: “Absolutely.”
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-N.Y.) noted that after raising concerns to experts and the World Health Organization that COVID-19 may have originated in a lab in Wuhan, China, and urging Dr. Fauci to investigate the origins of the pandemic, Dr. Redfield was excluded from calls related to the origins of the pandemic.
Rep. Malliotakis: “Why do you think you were excluded from those calls?”
Dr. Redfield: “It was told to me that they wanted a single narrative and that I obviously had a different point of view.”
Dr. Redfield added: “If you really want to be truthful, it’s antithetical to science. Science has debate, and they squashed any debate.”
Scientists, including Dr. Fauci, then drafted a paper arguing COVID-19’s proximal origins to animals at a wet market.
Rep. Malliotakis: “Do you think that this paper does hide the truth?”
Dr. Redfield: “I think it’s an inaccurate paper that basically was part of a narrative that they were creating.”
Rep. Malliotakis also warned that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) may have been funding gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the WIV.
Rep. Malliotakis: “Is it likely that American tax dollars funded the gain-of-function research that created this virus?”
Dr. Redfield: I think it did, not only from NIH, but from the State Department, USAID and DOD.”
Rep. Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa), who has expertise publishing in peer-reviewed scientific journals, asked why the scientific community dangerously suppressed evidence that COVID-19 may have originated from a lab.
“There is, as you said Dr. Metzl, extraordinary circumstantial evidence that this came from a lab.
“I don’t know why the authors didn’t want to state this, they did not want to have the scientific conversation and dialogue, why they wanted to obfuscate and suppress the truth, or even have a debate about the origins of COVID-19.
“Was it for personal financial gain? Was it to hide U.S. financial interest into the Wuhan Institute of Virology indirectly? Was it to suppress the revelation that there was perhaps gain-of-function research that had been prohibited in the United States? Or were they concerned that a conspiracy would develop that it was bioterrorism?
“I would state that their suppression and obfuscation has led to the exact mistrust and conspiracy theories that they may have tried to avoid.”
Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-Colo.) and Dr. Redfield discussed unusual actions at the WIV in September 2019.
Rep. Lesko: “Do you believe we can have certainty that the virus did not come from the Wuhan lab and that U.S. funding was not used for coronavirus research?”
Dr. Redfield: “Absolutely we cannot do that. It’s now declassified now, but in September 2019, three things happened in that lab.One, they deleted the sequences. That is highly irregular—researchers don’t usually like to do that. Second, they commanded the command and control of the lab from civilian control to military control. Highly unusual. And the third thing they did, which I think is really telling, is they let a contractor re-do the ventilation system in that laboratory. There is strong evidence there was a significant event in that laboratory in September 2019.”
Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) warned that the media downplayed, discredited, and silenced voices of experts sounding the alarm that COVID-19 may have originated from a lab in Wuhan, China.
Chairman Comer: “Would you agree that the scientific establishment used the media to downplay the lab leak theory?”
Mr. Wade: “I think the media was used in this particular campaign to establish the natural origin theory.”
“The scientific community is very afraid to speak up on political issues. I think the reason is that government grants are handed out through the system of peer-reviewed committees. You don’t want any single scientist on your peer-review committee to vote against, because you won’t get your grant – it’s so competitive. Therefore, scientists are very reluctant to say anything that’s politically divisive or turn other scientists off against them. This means that they cannot be relied upon in the way that we would like them to be independent and forthright and call it as they see it.”
Comer: “Was there science available to make such an unequivocal statement against the possibility of a lab leak that early on in February of 2020?”
Witnesses Dr. Metzl, Mr. Wade, and Dr. Redfield all answered,“No.”
Comer: “Is the possibility COVID-19 leaked from a lab a conspiracy theory?”
Dr. Fauci maintains COVID outbreak caused by ‘natural occurrence’
By Jesse O’Neill March 12, 2023 3:34pm … The 82-year-old now said he was still keeping a “completely open mind” to the origin of the virus, while explaining how a lab leak still could be considered a “natural occurrence.”
“A lab leak could be that someone was out in the wild, maybe looking for different types of viruses in bats, got infected, went into a lab and was being studied in the lab and then came out of the lab,” Fauci told anchor Jim Acosta.
“But if that’s the definition of a lab leak Jim, then that’s still a natural occurrence.”
Fauci said it could also be possible that a lab leak occurred after someone took a virus from the environment and manipulated it before accidentally infecting another person, kickstarting the outbreak, which has killed nearly seven million people worldwide.
He also made a point of noting that no investigative agency tasked with investigating the origins of the virus by President Biden in 2021 found evidence of nefarious activity at the lab.
“All of the intelligence agencies agree unanimously that this was not engineered. Namely, they didn’t deliberately do this to make a bioweapon,” Fauci said. … https://nypost.com/2023/03/12/dr-ant…al-occurrence/
The perennial gun-control debate in America did not begin here. The same arguments for and against were made in the 1920s in the chaos of Germany’s Weimar Republic, which opted for gun registration. Law-abiding persons complied with the law, but the Communists and Nazis committing acts of political violence did not.
In 1931, Weimar authorities discovered plans for a Nazi takeover in which Jews would be denied food and persons refusing to surrender their guns within 24 hours would be executed. They were written by Werner Best, a future Gestapo official. In reaction to such threats, the government authorized the registration of all firearms and the confiscation thereof, if required for “public safety.” The interior minister warned that the records must not fall into the hands of any extremist group.
In 1933, the ultimate extremist group, led by Adolf Hitler, seized power and used the records to identify, disarm, and attack political opponents and Jews. Constitutional rights were suspended, and mass searches for and seizures of guns and dissident publications ensued. Police revoked gun licenses of Social Democrats and others who were not “politically reliable.”
During the five years of repression that followed, society was “cleansed” by the National Socialist regime. Undesirables were placed in camps where labor made them “free,” and normal rights of citizenship were taken from Jews. The Gestapo banned independent gun clubs and arrested their leaders. Gestapo counsel Werner Best issued a directive to the police forbidding issuance of firearm permits to Jews.
In 1938, Hitler signed a new Gun Control Act. Now that many “enemies of the state” had been removed from society, some restrictions could be slightly liberalized, especially for Nazi Party members. But Jews were prohibited from working in the firearms industry, and .22 caliber hollow-point ammunition was banned.
The time had come to launch a decisive blow to the Jewish community, to render it defenseless so that its “ill-gotten” property could be redistributed as an entitlement to the German “Volk.” The German Jews were ordered to surrender all their weapons, and the police had the records on all who had registered them. Even those who gave up their weapons voluntarily were turned over to the Gestapo.
This took place in the weeks before what became known as the Night of the Broken Glass, or Kristallnacht, occurred in November 1938. That the Jews were disarmed before it, minimizing any risk of resistance, is the strongest evidence that the pogrom was planned in advance. An incident was needed to justify unleashing the attack.
That incident would be the shooting of a German diplomat in Paris by a teenage Polish Jew. Hitler directed propaganda minister Josef Goebbels to orchestrate the Night of the Broken Glass. This massive operation, allegedly conducted as a search for weapons, entailed the ransacking of homes and businesses, and the arson of synagogues.
SS chief Heinrich Himmler decreed that 20 years be served in a concentration camp by any Jew possessing a firearm. Rusty revolvers and bayonets from the Great War were confiscated from Jewish veterans who had served with distinction. Twenty thousand Jewish men were thrown into concentration camps, and had to pay ransoms to get released.
The U.S. media covered the above events. And when France fell to Nazi invasion in 1940, the New York Times reported that the French were deprived of rights such as free speech and firearm possession just as the Germans had been. Frenchmen who failed to surrender their firearms within 24 hours were subject to the death penalty.
No wonder that in 1941, just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration. In 1968, bills to register guns were debated, with opponents recalling the Nazi experience and supporters denying that the Nazis ever used registration records to confiscate guns. The bills were defeated, as every such proposal has been ever since, including recent “universal background check” bills.
As in Weimar Germany, some well-meaning people today advocate severe restrictions, including bans and registration, on gun ownership by law-abiding persons. Such proponents are in no sense “Nazis,” any more than were the Weimar officials who promoted similar restrictions. And it would be a travesty to compare today’s situation to the horrors of Nazi Germany.
Still, as history teaches, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
