Ephesians 6:12
King James Version
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
What’s needed is “Revival” because there ain’t enough guns to fight this “Evil.”
Another good one; https://tldavis.substack.com/p/machinery-of-communism
I’m half way through it. He’s definitely a clear thinker and can put his thoughts to words succinctly.

W.H. Auden - “August 1968”
I cheated and looked it up
We will need more gallows. Ironic note: evidently, the use of the word “gallows” causes the moderators at Breitbart to wet themselves. “Hold on. This post is waiting to be approved...” and of course, it never is.
Can I ride along? I’ll bring sammiches!
One announcement has a stopover in Quartzite Az before driving through Phoenix so that route is I-10.
Patience is a virtue and virtue is about to run out on these pri###
“The dead need no…*
That’s the job for the vaxxxxxxines, to kill the peasants by the millions. And then the vaxxxxine passports would turn into social tracking/control mechanisms to give you a job if you are worthy, housing if you behave, death if you are a problem. ..
Prisons means they have the possibility of getting out and resuming their crime sprees. I prefer crematoriums.
I’m a COVID doctor and a casual observer of COVID sociology.
A lot of positions people take are premised on “the relatively minor effects of Covid”.
How minor you think COVID is depends on your answer to “relative to what?”
When I talk about COVID policy, I often say, “If this was Ebola (or smallpox), we wouldn’t be having this discussion”. It’s true COVID is not an extinction-level event. It’s not Ebola. It’s not smallpox.
But it is bad, worse than seasonal influenza, and it’s not even close. If our politics was not as bad as it is, and the authorities had not performed so badly, this would still be a major event and would have influenced people’s behavior in ways flu or other seasonal illnesses never did.
God bless & safe travels.
I know COVID can be very serious, but this is why I think it was handled the way it was:
So, I think many of the "lockdown politicians" don't care much about the lives lost or the health that is damaged by COVID. They care about amassing their own power most of all.
I've been practicing Infectious Diseases medicine for 41 years. That's 42 "flu seasons".
In peak flu season, the average number of patients in my practice with hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring a ventilator on any given day is 0-1. For the three weeks before, during, and after 1/15/22, those numbers were 12, 19, and 14.
Believe what you want, 19 ventilated and contagious patients are enough to leave a memory on staff for years.
Nah,just more rope.🤔
What I think is this:
“Pandemic planning” has been going on for many years, kind of under the radar, at least as far as the public is concerned. I’ve attended at least ten pandemic planning sessions, work groups, and served on one DOD planning panel since, oh, 1997 or so.
When this happened, the responsible people know right away that if the full story were ever divulged they would, at a minimum, be disgraced if not worse.
They activated an “off the shelf” pandemic plan that was designed to deal with a mutated Influenza A strain, Public masking has always been a component of any influenza pandemic plan.
At first, goal one was to USE the pandemic to get rid of President Trump. Read the utterances of all the COVID twitterati if you are not convinced.
However, quickly, there was a shift to getting rid of COVID by any means necessary, no matter the cost. The reason for the confusion, the shifting sands, the changes in “guidance” week to week, month to month, is that there has never been a coronavirus plan as well developed as various flu plans, it had to be made up as they went along.
Why the rush? Why the panic?
Because the longer it went on, the more likely the case for US-funded and designed gain-of-function research as the proximate cause would become accepted. This had the potential to cause a regime crisis (American Chernobyl) and eventually bring the whole corrupt house down.
This is why Biden requires a fence around the Capitol to go there to speak.
It’s not that I don’t believe that Klaus Schwab, George Soros, the Gates Foundation would not do what they are accused of. I just believe that panic over being exposed by the US officials actually responsible for this is a better and more parsimonious explanation for two years of chaos and constant changes in “the plan”.
COVID critial illness is instantly recognizable to any competent intensivist or ID specialist. It doesn't resemble any other disease, with its unique physiology of alveolar damage and small-vessel clotting.
So, yes, I am 100% convinced that all COVID-diagnosed ICU patients on ventilators in January 2022 in New Hampshire had COVID and nothing else.
In my mind, no question about it.
1. The people who funded the gain of function research are the heros. The Chinese who shut down internal travel, allowed international travel and hindered the investigations into the causes are not to be discussed online or you will get banned. The WHO has covered for the Chinese. AND those who don't want their businesses destroyed are the bad guys.
2. The government response has been worse than the problem. The shutdowns and controls may bring us closer to a communist "utopia", but it does not seem to affect the COVID spread. If people think COVID is bad, wait until they see what communism looks like.
