In response to yesterday’s Wagging the Dog posting, SDA contributor, Ann, shared some amazing thoughts. I do hope she’s wrong but fear she is not:

You are correct, Robert. They are, in effect, showing us their power. The majority of the population of the U.S., including a record number of ethnic minorities who broke rank, rejected the elites. We rejected the entertainment industry, the mainstream media, the “wisdom” of academia, and the Swamp of bureaucrats in Washington. We voted for Trump in record numbers. We knew that Trump and his administration stood in the way of this bleak, gray, awful life under overloads who keep all the goodies for themselves. But they are showing us their power. With smiling faces and smooth word salads, they are robbing us of freedom. They are robbing us of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They are denying us the ability to travel, to gather, to enjoy live concerts and live sports in big or small venues, to dine out, to enjoy pubs and bars. Soon they will start denying us the foods and drinks we enjoy. And it won’t end. Our safe suburban neighborhoods are going to be forever altered. Our camping and hunting and recreation and sports are going to be denied us forever.

We won’t get back the pre-Covid times. Those are gone with the wind. Voting is meaningless. They know that we know what they did. They know that we know they cheated. But it doesn’t matter. They have the power. And they will never give it up. They no longer have to pretend to govern according to the will of the people, not when they can just order an extra 100,000 “votes” in the middle of the night to disenfranchise our votes in key districts. Soon even the smiling and “kind” and “benevolent” front they keep presenting will be gone as well. They won’t even need to pretend anymore.

The French Revolution got rid of a king but ended up with the Emperor Napoleon. And Robespierre, the despot who governed before Napoleon, was worse than the aristocrats he replaced. The whip just changed hands.
America gave us common folk middle class people a few good centuries. But it’s over. The aristocrats are letting us know we are back where they always want us: lower class, under their heel, producing things for them, inferior and cringing, doing their will, and no longer free.

It’s sickening.

They Went From “Flatten The Curve” To “Put Your Hands Behind Your Back” So Fast We Didn’t Even Notice

Wagging the Dog

For those old enough to remember, the term “Wag the Dog” came to prominence in 1998 when some alleged that Bill Clinton ordered missiles sent into Afghanistan and Sudan during the middle of his sex scandal.

Something very strange is going on right now in America with a sudden push for escalated lockdowns:

This is just a sampling.  There are many more such examples.

While there does indeed to be something in the DNA of Leftists to control everything and everyone, might there be something else going on at this moment in time?

Could this sudden 24/7 focus on Covid-19 possibly have something to do with this and this and this?  Might the Democrats & Media Leftist Alliance not want the news coming out of these hearings to reach the American people?  Asking for all of my American friends who believe in democracy, fairness, and the notion of right & wrong.

Blame The Dead People

Indigenous Services Canada says that, as of Tuesday, there were 4,069 COVID-19 cases on reserves in Canada. Of those, 1,564 were active.
 
In Manitoba, infections of Indigenous people living on and off reserve have surged in recent weeks. First Nations people are also experiencing more severe outcomes, the response team’s data shows.
 
As of Wednesday, there were more than 1,713 active cases among First Nations people on and off reserves in Manitoba. First Nations patients made up 26 per cent of hospitalizations and 45 per cent of people in intensive care.
 
So far, 45 First Nations members in the province have died from COVID-19 — the vast majority in the last couple of weeks. The average age of death was 66, while it was 83 for Manitoba’s overall population. An Indigenous boy under the age of 10 died last weekend.

Kelly Geraldine Malone* (writing for Canadian Press) explains how this is due to things that happened 80 years ago.
