Another Balloon?

Or another distraction? Pentagon launched mass surveillance balloons across the US in 2019

Did it say Happy Birthday on it? “And what a senior administration official described is that it had an octagonal shape and there were strings hanging from it, but with no discernible payload.”

New & Improved “Project Fear”, 2023 Edition!

The unknown nature of Covid in 2020 was perfect for the elites’ spin masters to notch up fear to 11 out of 10. As that has subsided, I was fairly certain that Climate Change was going to be used this year as the next big fear campaign. This was probably poll testing and deemed not very effective. So now, the threat of attacks from China, Russia, and possibly even E.T., is going into overdrive with “mysterious” happenings occurring all around America and Canada. The bought & paid for media have clearly received their marching orders and talking points.

Update 1: Isn’t it amazing that at the same moment multiple critical hearings about Deep State / Democrat corruption are occurring in DC that suddenly there’s an outbreak of “mysterious” objects over North America.  Must just be a coincidence!  One wonders if any have the words “Corn Pop” emblazoned on the side?

Update 2: Courtesy of a tip from ‘another ian’ comes the perfect meme:

The Most Interesting Man In The World

Washington Free Beacon;

Hunter Biden enlisted then-vice president Joe Biden’s national security adviser to help with a Serbian business partner’s campaign to become secretary general of the United Nations, a scheme that is now drawing scrutiny from the House Oversight Committee as it attempts to piece together Hunter Biden’s web of foreign business dealings.[…]

On Dec. 1, 2015, Jeremic approached Biden and his associate Eric Schwerin about a meeting with Ye Jianming, the then-chairman of CEFC China Energy, a Chinese energy conglomerate with suspected ties to Chinese intelligence.

“I am confident that many interesting projects may come out of that in the future,” wrote Jeremic, who was a consultant for CEFC at the time. Biden would enter a lucrative joint business venture with CEFC in 2017.

In their letter Friday, Republicans asked Biden for records related to Jeremic and CEFC executives. They are seeking details of CEFC’s $5 million consulting deal with Biden, and another $1 million that Biden received to represent Patrick Ho, a CEFC executive who was charged with attempting to bribe two African officials on behalf of CEFC for oil rights during the United Nations General Assembly meeting in September 2014. It is unclear what services Biden provided Ho, whom Biden referred to in private correspondence as the “fucking spy chief of China.”

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal

Jonathan Turley:

The Red Scare is back and it is going blue.

I testified this week in Congress on the Twitter Files and how they suggest what I have called “censorship by surrogate” or proxy.

The files show dozens of FBI and government employees actively seeking the censorship of citizens and others for their viewpoints. In my testimony, I warned that this was reminiscent of the McCarthy period where the FBI played a role in the establishment of blacklists for socialist, communists, and others. I encouraged Congress not to repeat its failures from the 1950s by turning a blind eye to such abuse.

This view was amplified by former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who became persona non grata for her anti-war sentiments in Congress. She was later labeled a “Russian asset” by Hillary Clinton, who has refused to support that scurrilous claim of a former member.

For years, the Democrats pushed a Russian collusion theory that collapsed. It was later disclosed that the Clinton campaign hid and then lied about funding the infamous Steele Dossier. Nevertheless, people like Carter Page were falsely accused of being Russian agents and critics labeled as Russian apologists. Ironically, the FBI was warned that the dossier appeared to be the result of Russian disinformation and relied on a presumed Russian agent.

If anything, my warning of McCarthy-like attacks and measures seemed to be taken more as a suggestion than an admonition by some. Soon after the end of the hearing, MSNBC contributor and former Sen. Claire McCaskill appeared on MSNBC to denounce the member witnesses (Sen. Chuck Grassley, Sen. Ron Johnson, and former Rep. Gabbard) as “Putin apologists” and Putin lovers.

This probably doesn’t need to be said, but for the few who might not have realized it yet – we’ve been dragged into Ukraine to fight not Russia, but a Democrat proxy war with Trump.

Justly Disappointed in Canada

Justin Trudeau and his equally incompetent colleagues & minions have really screwed up Canada’s healthcare system:

The cost of public health insurance for the average Canadian has increased over 100 per cent since 1997, according to the Fraser Institute.We spend 11 per cent of our GDP on health care, more than 27 other comparable countries.The two pioneering 19th-century doctors — the first Black people licensed to practice medicine in Canada — were never mentioned when Persaud studied at the University of Toronto, despite their connections to the university and their long lists of accomplishments.But among advanced OECD countries, we are 31 out of 34 in acute care beds per thousand population, 26 out of 31 in medical doctors and 17 out of 32 in nurses.But there are also warning signs, about the readiness of the labour market to capitalize on clean-growth opportunities ahead.Last year, dozens of emergency rooms were closed in various parts of the country and there are inexcusable delays in processing applications for admission to the medical profession from foreign doctors and nurses.Then he was angry.We have 10 times as many health administrators as Germany although Germany has more than twice the population of Canada.“I regret not being able to chat and hear new ideas.

Postcard From Africa

Ken Opalo- Three Billion Africans, How demographics will shape African states’ economic and political futures

For much of history the continent of Africa has been largely underpopulated. For example, it wasn’t until the mid-1990s that the entire region’s population surpassed Europe’s (see below). Now the region is in the middle of a demographic boom that will see its population double over the next 50 years to more than 3 billion. By 2100 half all humans being born will be African. It is not an overstatement to claim that the world’s demographic future is in Africa.
