Wuhan virus -
House Democrats blocked an effort to require COVID-19 testing and vaccinations for migrants stopped at the border before they are released into U.S. communities. The move comes as President Biden requires federal employees, including members of the U.S. military and Border Patrol, to receive the COVID vaccine. The U.S. government will reportedly fund COVID testing for federal workers who are not yet vaccinated.

Globalism / Great Reset -
Liberal media is now warning of a global transport system collapse. CNN reported - “In an open letter Wednesday to heads of state attending the United Nations General Assembly, the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) and other industry groups warned of a “global transport system collapse” if governments do not restore freedom of movement to transport workers and give them priority to receive vaccines recognized by the World Health Organization.”

In a hearing on Thursday, Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said he believes that parents are the primary stakeholders in the education of a child.
“Cardona: “I believe parents are important stakeholders, but I also believe educators have a role in determining educational programming.””
This follows a statement by Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe says parents shouldn’t tell schools what to teach their kids.
Also - National School Boards Association asks Biden admin to look into angry parents as possible ‘domestic terrorism and hate crime’ threats.
OBSERVATION - Control of children’s education (or rather indoctrination) by the globalists is key to producing compliant sheeple of the great reset.

The Reuters headline : “Sydney’s unvaccinated warned of social isolation when COVID-19 lockdown ends.” Gladys Berejiklian is the head of the government of the state of New South Wales, where Sydney is located, and therefore charged with setting COVID policy. She’s ordered a two-tier reopening after an endless lockdown based on local vaccination rates. On October 11, pubs, cafes, gyms and other public spaces will reopen — to the vaccinated only.
But now it seems karma has hit - “A tearful Gladys Berejiklian has resigned as NSW premier and slammed the state’s corruption watchdog after it announced it was investigating her about her secret relationship with disgraced MP Daryl Maguire.
The 51-year-old leader will also step down as Willoughby MP and leave politics for good as soon as a byelection can take place after Sydney’s Covid lockdown.” (Daily UK)
More out of NSW - An Australian government official from the province of New South Wales has admitted that six of seven recent COVID-19 deaths came from the vaccinated.
“As the minister said, tragically today, we announced the deaths of seven people who had lost their lives to COVID-19, four women and three men, one person was in their 40s, one person in their 50s, two people in their 70s, two people in their 80s, and one person who was in their 90s, all of those individuals had underlying health conditions, one person was not vaccinated, three people had received one dose of the COVID vaccine, and three people had received two doses of the COVID vaccine,” NSW Deputy Chief Health Officer Dr. Marianne Gale said.”

OBSERVATION - Huge levels of corruption and false medical reporting from NSW. Yet it is this level of crackdown/coercion by the govt that the Global Resetists are willing to go to in order to force their agenda against a world that is resisting the wuhan ‘passport’ and jab demands.

Economy -
Congress avoided a government shutdown Thursday hours before funding would have lapsed. President Joe Biden signed a short-term appropriations bill that will keep the government running through Dec. 3. Washington had to beat a midnight Thursday deadline to prevent a shutdown of some federal operations.
OBSERVATION - Congress only succeeded to kick the can down the road. It does reduce pressure on other democrats key legislation such as the “Build America Better” act, but only slightly as democrats continue their cat fight over excessive costs. The continuing resolution will set spending at current levels into December while lawmakers hash out a full-year funding plan. The legislation includes money for hurricane relief and the resettlement of Afghan refugees.

The latest unemployment numbers while not triggering a new crisis, is still not good. The previous week saw 351,000 new jobless claims, which was considerably higher than had been anticipated. This week, economists had predicted that the number of new unemployment claims would drop a bit to 335,000. Instead, they rose yet again, with 362,000 filing for initial benefits. For comparison, at this point in 2019, the number of new unemployment claims per week was averaging barely 200,000.

Invasion of Illegals - On Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced revised guidelines allowing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to exercise more discretion in deciding which immigrants should be targeted for arrest or deportation. “In exercising our discretion, we are guided by the fact that the majority of undocumented noncitizens who could be subject to removal have been contributing members of our communities for years.”

See Wuhan for lack of testing of illegals entering country.

Afghanis residing on military bases following the evacuation from Afghanistan are reportedly walking out of the bases and there is nothing the military can do about it. Approximately 700 have departed and could be higher, has not been previously reported. But the phenomenon is raising alarms among immigration advocates concerned about the risks to Afghans who give up on what is now an open-ended, complex, and completely voluntary resettlement process.
OBSERVATION - It is alleged that some of these may be lining up with family already residing in country. But given the number of criminals and terrorists that have already been identified in the evacuated ‘refugees’, there is growing concern that these elements are getting out into society without further screening.

The Department of Homeland Security is worried that rolling back the Trump-era Title 42 policy would encourage more migrants to come to the border and send numbers surging in October. Up to 400,000 migrants - or DOUBLE the 21-year record set in July - could cross the border in October when COVID restrictions Trump used to stop the surge from Mexico end, report claims.
OBSERVATION - I don’t know why they are ’worried’, honestly this is what they want.

CW2/Domestic violence -
Most activity on the left this week end appears to be focused on protests supporting abortion rights in several states. Most are expected to be peaceful.

Strategic Developments /Deployments -
Wednesday, September 29th, a massive string of KC-135 tankers launched in quick succession out of Fairchild Air Force Base in northeastern Washington State. Soon it became apparent that 20 aerial refuelers were on some sort of mission, flying in a tightly-packed line across the northern United States. The massive launch is likely part of a major readiness exercise.

Cyber Warfare -
Guggenheim Partners ($325 billion AUM) Chief Investment Officer Scott Minerd warned this week that the top economic risk is a cyber attack against the global payments system.
“It would appear that we are extremely vulnerable to having an attack against the payment system of the financial markets… [I]f there was a synchronized attack, we would essentially bring the global financial market to its knees. The first response would probably be that securities prices would crash, and the second is we would probably have to close all the exchanges in the world in order to figure out how to restore the global payments system.”

China -
25 Chinese military aircraft have flown into and violated Taiwan’s Air Defense Identification Zone, or ADIZ. Taiwan fighters were scrambled to intercept .
NOTE - ongoing incursion pattern, with gradually increasing numbers of aircraft.

A Long March 3B long-range Chinese rocket was launched on a transjectrory that carried it over Sidney Australia on Tuesday (Sept. 28). Speculation is that it carried either a new generation of navigation satellites or a spy satellite. (imho the latter is more probable given the polar orbit). Many see the launch as a further warning to Australia piggybacking of Chinese threats of nuclear attack if Australia interferes with Chinese action towards Taiwan or elsewhere in the disputed S China Sea.
NOTE - The Long March 3 is not capable of being placed in the newly constructed missile silos, but those missiles that will occupy them will have the range to hit Australia.

North Korea -
North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un on Wednesday ordered the cross-border hotline to South Korea restored, indicating a willingness to resume peace negotiations with Seoul. However, Kim said he had no desire to speak with the “hostile” and “cunning” U.S. government.

NK also reportedly tested a new anti air missile yesterday.

Europe General -
Sharply higher oil and gas prices helped push annual inflation in the 19 countries that use the euro to its highest in more than a decade, the European Union’s statistics agency said Friday. The overall inflation level, boosted by a jolting 17.4% increase in energy prices, is the euro area’s highest since 2008.

Middle East General -
The United States and Qatar took coordinated action on Wednesday targeting a Hezbollah financial network in the Arabian Peninsula, the US Treasury Department said in a statement. The Treasury said it designated individuals including Ali Reda Hassan al-Banai, Ali Reda al-Qassabi Lari and Abd al-Muayyid al-Banaiare for having provided financial or material support to Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based Shi’ite Islamist group that Washington has designated as a foreign terrorist organization.

Iran -
A fire erupted in an IRGC facility in Iran on Sunday leaving two dead and one injured. On Thursday, Tel Aviv-based ImageSat International - ISI, a commercial servicer for satellite images - estimated that the facility was not just any military compound - it was a secret missile base.
OBSERVATION - Incidents like this have been almost a regular occurrence in Iran this year. In some instances they have been the result of Iranian incompetence but in others it has been strongly suspected of Israeli supported sabotage. There are many in Iran who are against the current theocratic govt and don’t want to be drug into a potential nuclear war with Israel.

Tensions remain high between Azerbaijan and Iran.. Azerbaijan began targeting Iranian trucks with fines and arrests, and Iran moved military forces to its border with Azerbaijan and warned against Israeli influence near its borders. The trucks in question were traveling on a road between the Armenian towns of Kapan and Goris which partially crosses through territory handed over to Azerbaijan after the Nagorno-Karabakh war last year, according to RFE/RL. The highway, patrolled by Russian peacekeepers, is Armenia’s only link to Iran.

Syria -
Senior al-Qaeda leader, Salim Abu-Ahmad, was killed in a U.S. airstrike near Idlib, Syria, on Sept. 20. He was responsible for planning, funding, & approving trans-regional AQ attacks. A CENTOM spokesman said “There are no indications of civilian casualties as a result of the strike.”

More attacks in the Idlib regions. Operations against Anti Assad forces in the southern Syrian area of Darma have essentially ceased following a Russian backed cease fire and takeover of key areas by pro assad forces.

Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan -
Tensions have been mounting in western Asia following the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan last month, with Tajikistan reportedly beefing up its military presence on the Tajik-Afghan border in response. Many former members of the Afghan military defected to Tajikistan in the waning days of the country prior to Taliban takeover. The Tajik government has exchanged blows with the newly instated Taliban regime in recent weeks, condemning the insurgent group’s lack of diversity in the Taliban’s interim government and expressing concerns over stability in the region. “Recent developments in Afghanistan, linked to the political and humanitarian crisis and governance, pose a serious threat to regional security and stability,” Tajik President Emomali Rahmon said in an address to the U.N. General Assembly last week. “The current situation is a humanitarian catastrophe.”
“The growing intensity of fights between the ethnic groups and tribes in Afghanistan is another factor further destabilizing the political and security situation in our neighboring country,” he added. In exchange, the Taliban warned the Tajik government against interfering in its internal affairs. (Fox)

Wuhan virus -
Kalifornia gov Newscum signed a bill mandating wuhan jabs for all school children K-12. Note, however, that the mandate won’t take effect until the vaccine is fully approved for kids. Right now it’s only authorized for emergency use among children aged 12-15, which means we’re still many months away from full approval. And for younger children, there isn’t even an EUA yet. It may not be until next summer or later before full approval for the vaccine in their age group is granted. Many note teachers and school staff still aren’t subject to a vaccine mandate in Kalifornia.

News reports on a new anti-viral pill to battle COVID-19 from Merck called “Molnupiravir”, - keep in mind Merck is the pharma company that owns the anti-viral pill Ivermectin.

A new study from the United Kingdom provides some great news about kids and COVID-19. The study looks at contacts of patients with a positive PCR test. It covers the time period when the Alpha variant was dominant through when the Delta variant became the most common. This study seems to cast doubts on the effectiveness or reasonableness of mandating masks for school children .

Globalism / Great Reset -
biden/Yellen pushing for reporting by banks on “aggregate inflows into the account during the year and the aggregate outflows” for all accounts that are worth at least $600 or that engage in at least $600 worth of transactions. “

OBSERVATION - global economic control requires control of individual finances. Many expect this to finally switch over to digital currency that would create a mechanism for even greater control over individuals and linkage to eventually social credits system like is being implemented in China today.
Keep in mind too that biden is seeking to expand the number of IRS auditors substantially to go after tax fraud, and such banking oversight / reporting would be key in that effort.

Economy -
The narrative of ‘transitory” inflation is quickly passing - even an a global scale.
- The Bank of Mexico raised the benchmark interest rate by one-quarter percent to 4.75 percent in a 4:1 split vote on Thursday over short-term inflation concerns. The central bank of the second-largest Latin American economy, also known as Banxico, revised upward the inflation in the latest inflation forecasts because of “global inflationary pressures and bottlenecks in production.”
- White House economic adviser Jared Bernstein told Fox News in a recent interview that inflation is likely to stay elevated longer than previously expected. Bernstein told the outlet that he thinks the rate of inflation will come in at around 4 percent for 2021, before falling to 2.3 percent in 2022. He did not say when, precisely, he expects the rate will tick down next year, but noted inflation would likely stay high into the middle of next year.
- Economist Nouriel Roubini, known for his gloomy-yet-accurate forecast of the 2008 financial crash—a prediction he made at a time of peak market exuberance—warned in a recent op-ed that the global supply chain crisis, combined with high debt ratios and ultra-loose monetary and fiscal policies, threatens to turn the “mild stagflation” of recent months into a full-blown stagflationary crisis.

Americans currently on food stamps will see their monthly allotment raised by almost 30 percent, thanks to a change in policy from the Biden administration. CNN reported that following a review of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Americans who count on money for food will be given an extra $36 a month starting in October. That is an increase of over 29 percent since before the coronavirus pandemic, and before skyrocketing inflation began creating headaches for not just poor Americans, but for all people living on a budget this year.

Invasion of Illegals -
Around 53,000 Afghan evacuees are currently living on eight military bases in the United States as part of the Biden Administration’s Operation Allies Welcome. Another 14,000 Afghans will be arriving soon, once the evacuation flights resume in various foreign countries. Those flights were suspended several weeks ago because of a measles outbreak among the evacuees.

CW2/Domestic violence -
A new poll has revealed that political divisions run so deep in the US that over half of Trump voters want red states to secede from the union, and 41% of Biden voters want blue states to split off. According to the analysis from the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics, 52% of Trump voters at least somewhat agree with the statement: ‘The situation is such that I would favor [Blue/Red] states seceding from the union to form their own separate country.’ Twenty-five percent of Trump voters strongly agree. Meanwhile, 41% of Biden voters at least somewhat agree with the sentiment, while 18% strongly agree. (dailymail UK)

China -
China swarmed the Taiwan ADZ with nearly 40 combat aircraft yesterday and already today more than a dozen combat craft have entered the ADZ. Yesterday was Chin’s Founding day and Xi’s show of strength is key.
OBSERVATION - Military probing and exercises is a common method to lull an opponent into a sense of routine. Egypt did this in the 1973 war against Israel. China is unlikely to launch an attack with air power alone. More mobilization triggers will be necessary - such as the massive operations necessary for an amphibious assault.
____________________________________

India/China -
One hundred PLA soldiers and 55 horses intruded three miles into the Indian territory in the Barahoti region of the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand on Aug. 30 and returned after destroying some infrastructure including a bridge, according to the latest Indian media reports.
Experts said the timing of the incident is of significance as it conveys to the Indians the Chinese regime’s serious intent. It’s also thought to be connected with the new PLA leadership, which specializes in patrolling and reconnaissance missions in mountainous terrain. The incursion might have been designed by them to please Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
“What adds an element of concern to this complex situation is the timing of it. Since the intrusion was large reportedly, with as many as 100 Chinese soldiers, it means that the Chinese side wishes to underline the seriousness of its intent,” Rajiv Dogra, a former senior Indian diplomat, told The Epoch Times by email.
The incident at the mountain crossing Tun Jun La Pass went unnoticed by the Indian military initially and didn’t lead to a faceoff, reported the Mumbai-based The Economic Times, which quoted insiders in the Indian defense establishment.
It was reported by locals to the Indian army, which sent a patrol to verify. By then the Chinese had left after spending about three hours.
