Took yesterday off, needed to decompress.

Wuhan Virus -
The faster spreading UK wuhan variant has been detected in Oregon. CDC is expressing concern that this variant known as B.1.1.7 could become the dominant strain in the US by March, like it has in the UK. This more contagious strain will be used to further justify increasing lockdowns/shutdowns of the economy and civil rights int the coming months. And speaking of rights, Michigan’s Governor has extended her state’s lock down for an even longer period.

Chicago’s mayor has reversed herself, now calling to reopen bars and restaurants to prevent the spread of wuhan - wait what?

Economy -
The Internal Revenue Service will delay the start of tax filing season until Feb. 12, 2021, which pushes the date when the tax agency will begin accepting and processing 2020 tax year returns.
On Friday, the agency said the start date for individual tax return filers will allow the IRS time to do additional programming and testing following the Dec. 27 tax law changes, which provided a second round of COVID-19 stimulus relief checks and other benefits. April 15 remains the deadline for filing 2020 tax returns.

2020 Election-
President Trump will be enroute to Florida when Biden is installed as emperor.

CW2/Domestic violence -
Echoing the continued warnings not to support this march on DC and other statehouses on the 20th. Evidence it this is a false flag attempt to trigger 2A crackdowns in addition to the ongoing attacks against Trump supporters. Keep your powder dry for now.

NG deployments to DC now exceed 25,000 (approaching 30K). To put this in perspective, in Afghanistan and Iraq combined we only have about 7,000 troops.
Speaking of Iraq, the Secret Service has declared a “Green Zone” in downtown DC, with vehicular traffic restricted to residents.

After claiming otherwise, the DOJ is now saying that there is no evidence that those who entered the capitol had the intent to capture and assassinate representatives. More media however continues to paint the capture and kill narrative. The narrative continues to be the instigators were Trump supporters, though multiple arrests of leftists have been arrested and in at least one case (John Sullivan) on line postings called for the burning down of the capitol and deliberate mayhem. Plus, CNN teamed up with him to penetrated the capitol, video shows other provocateurs with him. BTW, Sullivan was released without bail. In comparison, “bison boy” is being held without bond. Sullivan is the founder of a left-wing rioting group called Insurgence USA which goes around instigating riots with Antifa thugs.

Ken Cuccinelli, the acting Deputy Homeland Security Secretary, said he and FBI Director Christopher Wray briefed more than 5,900 state and local officials earlier this week about “a good deal of online chatter” that has prompted increased security around the country. DHS/FBI did say there’s no specific, credible threats at this point in time.

CYBER/CANCEL CULTURE FRONT -
American Thinker has been forced to close its comments sections. Its internet service provider demanded that or near instantaneous monitoring/censoring of comments deemed “violent” etc.

Project Veritas posted a secretly recorded video of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey talking about his censorship plans beyond President Donald Trump. Pretty damning video, but not surprising considering the coordinated Big Tech assault on conservatives.

No word on Parler’s attempt to reconstruct on a conservative friendly server site.

Mailchimp is now banning conservative sites and removing them from their email services. The first of these is the Montana Daily Gazette.

Bloomburg is apparently teaming up with Big Tech to target Pro- 2A websites and influencers. The initial efforts were evident when the AR15 website was pulled by GoDaddy (company owned by Amazon).

Word is circulating that Apple is planning to remotely axe the Telegram app from users’ iPhones now that President Donald Trump and millions of free speech advocates have migrated there. Telegraph notified its users on Tuesday that the app surpassed 500 million monthly active users during the first week of January, with 25 million new users joining just in the previous 72 hours alone. Earlier, Apple removed the Parler app from its store as part of a combined effort with google and amazon to shut that site down permanently.

POLITICAL FRONT -
Senate released transcripts of the FISA abuses/lies that were the foundation for the Mueller investigation. This on top of other documents declassified by the president over the past couple days. The release covered over by the media of course.

Pelosi has delayed forwarding the bill of impeachment to the senate. Part of her ‘reason’ is that they are pulling together the ‘evidence’ of the criminal act. Typical cart-before-the-horse. However, this delay virtually insures that it will not be acted upon by the Senate before the 20th. This sets up what is a clear unconstitutional attempt for the Senate to impeach the ‘civilian’ Trump. Even leftist attorneys Dershowitz and Turley note this is unconstitutional. It is a unashamedly an attempt to prevent Trump from running again in 2024 and a vicious assault on him and supporters. This has the effect of throwing Biden’s 100 day agenda under the bus by taking the legislative focus off that an onto a continuation of the political coup.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D -W.Va.) said in an interview this week that he believes the Senate should consider removing GOP Sens. Josh Hawley (Mo.) and Ted Cruz (Texas), arguing the Republicans were complicit in insurrection when they objected to certifying some Electoral College votes the same day a pro-Trump mob attacked the Capitol in protest of the election results. This is just another voice from the left demanding the removal of republicans from congress.
NOTE - watch closely since if campaign this gains traction, serious violence would be expected and it would stimulate the drive for the affected state(s) to succeed from the union.

Pelosi has threatened representatives with a $10,000 fine for failing to go through recently installed metal detectors. Other democrats are also wetting their pants with fear that republican representatives are going to kill them. Anti 2A hysteria wave coming next.

North Korea -
NK showed off a new missile believed to be a submarine launched ballistic missile (SLBM) in a parade yesterday.
MY OBSERVATIONS - Like it’s monstrous cousin, the MIRV ICBM displayed in last October’s parade this missile is more for show than go. Prior to the Trump initiatives with NK, they had been trying to successfully execute a sea launch of a missile (smaller version) without success. NK is also constructing / retrofitting submarines for SLBMs, but expect a considerable number of technical problems to work out before operational deployment. Kim made a big deal at the recent party conference about expanding NK’s military efforts in the strategic realm and this ‘missile’ reveal likely is part of that propaganda. Timing with the incoming biden administration cannot be missed. The unveiling of the new missiles appears designed to send the incoming Biden administration a message of the North’s growing military prowess.

Israel -
When biden assumes power, Israel is expecting a vacuum in US power to keep Iran in check, so Israeli news sources are reporting that the IDF is in the process of developing courses of action to take out the Iranian nuclear program on their own. This effort has gained new urgency given the Iranian move to start processing uranium to 20% purity, once that is obtained nuclear experts estimated that it could only take but a few months to jump to the 90%/weapons grade level.

Iran has sent several Shahed-136 loitering munitions, known as “suicide drones,” to its proxies in Yemen, Newsweek reported on Thursday. It has been noted that Israel has enhanced its anti aircraft missile system deployment in the southern part of the country as a counter measure.

Michigan’s Governor has extended her state’s lock down for an even longer period.

No one who enjoys arbitrary and draconian power that much should ever have any authority over a human being or a dumb beast.
