Wuhan virus -
(Postable under multiple categories) The White House quietly issued updated guidance on vaccine mandates for federal contractors. Under the new guidance, contractors and employees do not need to be immediately fired or placed in a leave status. Instead, there’s an undefined timeline for education and accommodation to prevent any firing. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has yet to release their rules requiring businesses with more than 100 employees to vaccinate, test weekly, or face fines. (FO)
OBSERVATION - biden blinked? Reality that the loss of at least 5% of its defense workforce would be crippling.
Military branches have expulsions / negative actions against non-jabbed service members put on hold by courts. Many reports that commanders have form letters uniformly rejecting religious exemptions requests. Estimated tens of thousands of our military could be put on the street if this latest purge is allowed to continue.
OBSERVATION - Lawfare continues vigorously not only about military mandates, but civilian as well. So far ruling have gone both ways, with no clear trends from the court.
OSHA has finished developing a rule that compels companies with 100+ employees to require vaccines or regular testing. It also requires employers to provide paid time to workers to get vaccinated and to recover from any side effects. The rule will go into effect in days. It has been estimated that the OSHA mandate will cover somewhere around 80 million American workers. It is a certainty that court challenges are prepared and ready for filing.
Concerns coming to the surface by whistleblowers about Pfizer’s covid-19 vaccine trial. Testimony casts doubts on the quality and integrity of the trial. This will likely be submerged by MSM and only found on more objective sites like FR.
The use of mRNA vaccines in pregnancy is now generally considered safe for protection against COVID-19 in countries such as New Zealand, USA, and Australia. However, the influential CDC- sponsored article by Shimabukuro et al. (2021) used to support this idea, on closer inspection, provides little assurance, particularly for those exposed in early pregnancy. The study presents falsely reassuring statistics related to the risk of spontaneous abortion in early pregnancy, since the majority of women in the calculation were exposed to the mRNA product after the outcome period was defined (20 weeks’ gestation).
In this article, we draw attention to these errors and recalculate the risk of this outcome based on the cohort that was exposed to the vaccine before 20 weeks’ gestation. Our re-analysis indicates a cumulative incidence of spontaneous abortion 7 to 8 times higher than the original authors’ results (p < 0.001) and the typical average for pregnancy loss during this time period. In light of these findings, key policy decisions have been made using unreliable and questionable data. We conclude that the claims made using these data on the safety of exposure of women in early pregnancy to mRNA-based vaccines to prevent COVID-19 are unwarranted and recommend that those policy decisions be revisited.
OBSERVATION - I reported on similar several months ago. Pregnant women were even an issue more than a year ago with warnings by the CDC - later buried.

Facebook is taking down its facial recognition system this month and will allegedly delete the literal billions of images and records contained therein. (NY Times)
OBSERVATION - There must be something else that will replace it. digital recognition is a great controlling force globalists will use to enforce their will.

Increasing concern by farmers due to the lack of fertilizers, herbicides, tractor parts and other key materials. Obviously this could greatly diminish the US harvest, but those of other other countries around the world, worsening the current tight food market.

Law and order is still a priority in Minneapolis as voters soundly defeated an attempt to convert the police department into essentially a social service agency

POLITICAL FRONT -
OBSERVATION - Republican victories in Virginia and the current too close to be called Governor contest in NJ soundly sent shock waves across the progressive realm. Many see this as an initial referendum on biden. Here is what I expect to see before congress essentially shuts down to campaign for the 2022 elections.
1. Pelosi and the progressives will throw everything they have into getting their destructive tax and spending plans passed. This may involve some ‘smaller’ packages that have a greater opportunity to pass. Pundents currently forecast as many as 40-50 seats flipping back to republican in the house. This will be very similar to how they pushed 0bama’s health care plan through.
2. “Moderate” democrats will read the tea leaves and realize that at the local level the progressive / marxist agenda of the far left of their party has become toxic. They have to toe a fine line inorder not to lose the far left of their base before swinging openly to the middle for the election. OTOH, other moderates democrats like Manchin who don’t have a far left base may be emboldened to continue to oppose the progressive agenda
3. biden et al is likely to double and triple down on pushing for his legislation. Expect even more executive orders to circumvent congressional log jams.
4. Increasing pressure to jettison biden AND harris. If they are going to jettison biden, they only have a small window prior to the 2022 elections to avoid a massive leadership battle. And Harris is even less popular, let alone less competent than biden.
FINAL NOTE - Much of what swung voters to republicans were local issues made worse by biden. All politics is local, but the trend was devastating given the political capital put into these contests.
All in all, buckle up for a bumpy ride.

A statement issued Monday revealed that the nuclear-powered USS Connecticut struck a seamount — or underwater mountain. Modern submarines operate as much as possible without using sonar, so errors in underwater maps can be devastating.

China -
China’s Manufacturing Purchasing Manager Index (PMI) fell 0.4 percentage points in October to 49.2—any number below 50 represents a contraction in manufacturing production—according to official figures from the National Bureau of Statistics. The data was worse than expected with market analysts expecting a figure of 49.7. This is the second consecutive month the index has indicated a contraction, and is the lowest the index has been since the onset of the pandemic.
OBSERVATIONS - China has serious internal problems that were brewing before wuhan. Current electricity crisis and shipping logjams haven’t helped.
Observers are evaluating Xi’s failure to go to the G20 as evidence of a potential fear on his part that while he is gone he would be replaced by his enemies. See economy above along with his wuhan actions and tyrannical social dictates have not endeared him to the power players in China.

North Korea -
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, is removing portraits of his father and grandfather says South Korea Spy agency. If true, then serious power changes are a foot in.
Railroad traffic between North Korea and China has resumed. This move to start opening the border is likely an effort to avert a major famine I posted on in the recent past.

Russia -
Russia moved elements of the 41st CAA to a location north of Yelnya, which is north of Ukraine and just east of Belarus. The elements have been noted moving previously the past week. In this position, an attack against Ukraine is believed to be unlikely in the short term, but does create concerns for NATO and other Russian neighbors

Israel -
Israeli strike reported overnight in Zakia, near Damascus Syria. A number of missiles were fired resulting in material losses - likely Hezbollah storage and facilities. No deaths currently being reported. No Syrian ADA reports because they have nothing that can address ballistic missiles.

Kamala gets booted first, as Nancy Pelosi abruptly gets the NBC religion, a religious conversion she steadfastly avoided for St. Obama the Divine.
Then since it becomes obvious that Brandon lacks the mental capacity to pick a new VP, that precipitates a 25th Amendment removal.
In the absence of the president and the vice president, next in the line of succession, Madam Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi seamlessly becomes the first female president.
This will not work if they wait until after the 2022 elections...

Wuhan virus -
The big push for giving the jab to children is on with ads and news reports swarming the media. As noted in the past, the vaccine threat to children is greater than them getting hit by lightning. Last I read from CDC data, less than 1000 minors under 17 were reportedly killed by wuhan. And for those 12-17 who’ve received the jab, they were found to be 3-5 times more likely to develop heart problems. Its not about the virus, its about control.
On September 13th 2021, the four Chief Medical Officer’s (CMO’s) of the United Kingdom advised the UK Government to offer the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine to all children over the age of twelve. This was despite the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization (JCVI) previously stating they could not support universal vaccination of children.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle:
Children ages 5 to 11 will be required to show proof of vaccination to enter certain public spaces in San Francisco — including restaurants, gyms and large events like Warriors games — now that they are eligible to get the shots, public health officials said, though the local mandate likely will not apply to them for another couple of months.
San Francisco has required everyone 12 and older to confirm they are vaccinated since August if they want to go inside many public places. It was the first major city in the United States to issue such an order.
UK has just conditionally authorized the first anti-wuhan pill. Marketed by Merick, the pill - molnupiravir - has incorporated many features also possessed by ivermectin. The conditional authorization was based on an analysis of phase-three trials that found that use of the antiviral COVID-19 pill drastically reduced hospitalization in people who were administered molnupiravir.
Swedish study indicates that wuhan jabs not only loose their effectiveness with time but after 6 months, the older men and people most at risk of Covid were more likely to catch Covid that the matched same-age unvaccinated controls they were paired with. Nine months after vaccination, the average person is still less likely to end up in hospital, but protection is trending downwards for everyone.

Globalism / Great Reset -
Promises made at COP26 - if fully kept - would limit global warming to 1.8C, says the International Energy Agency.
OBSERVATION - Remember, these numbers are based on flawed computer models that have yet to get things right.

Economy -
The Fed said it will reduce its purchase of U.S. Treasuries to $70 billion and those of agency mortgage-backed securities by $10 billion this month. In December, it predicts that the Treasury purchases will decrease again to $60 billion and the other securities by $5 billion. So far the stock markets has had a neutral response to this tapering.
Malcolm Wilson, the CEO of GXO Logistics Inc. says the port logistics jam has ‘peaked’. Others in the industry are not so confident and some are indicating that they don’t see things clearing up until 2023. Inspite of brandon’s agreement for the ports to operate 24/7, real evidence is that nothing has changed.
In related, kalifornia starts to wake up. “I’m a little bit horrified that we don’t already have better systems in place,” said Sen. Susan Talamantes Eggman, D-Stockton. “You kind of visualize there’s an air traffic controller person doing the directing, but I guess everybody’s just doing their contracting on their own, which then we understand why we have what we have right now.” Kalifornia officials are looking at ways to ‘solve ‘ the port issues.
OBSERVATION - kalifornia democrats and their the laws they have passed have created the problem by essentially eliminating independent truckers and limiting the allowable semi’s allowed to operate in the state. I don’t expect anything to come from from Sacramento other than more screwed up laws and policies. Newsom signed an executive order last month, giving the state until Dec. 15 to identify potential sites to temporarily store containers to reduce congestion at ports. Does nothing about getting those containers to their destination.
Biden’s EPA will soon issue regulations requiring that all associated natural gas released in conjunction with oil production be put in pipelines for delivery to market: The Environmental Protection Agency would seek for the first time to regulate methane at existing wells nationwide, a move smaller producers fought for years. The move would place roughly a million new and existing wells under EPA methane regulation, with stricter requirements for new wells in addition to the first-time regulations for old ones.
OBSERVATION - Oil/gas producers already incorporated methane capture/control features as methane is a key component of natural gas - loss of which means loss of profits. This will only serve to bury the industry in massive red tape and fines.

Biden watch -
Biden on Wednesday insisted his administration was not considering paying migrant families separated under the Trump administration $450,000 per person. ACLU OTOH has issued a statement essentially saying not so fast. Apparently, the major administration driver of these payments is the DOJ and the ACLU stated that biden hasn’t been properly briefed on the subject.

Attorney Ann Davison (R) won 59% of the vote, defeating former public defender Nicole Thomas-Kennedy in the race to succeed incumbent Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes (D). Time will tell if her strong law and order background will have any impact of the BLM/Antifa anarchy in the city.
Looking at potential backlash from the Rittenhouse trial. If new reports are correct, it is not going well for the prosecution.

China -
General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said during the Aspen Security Forum on Wednesday that China likely won’t try to militarily seize the island nation of Taiwan within the next couple of years.
“Based on my analysis of China, I don’t think that it is likely in the near future—being defined as, you know, six, twelve, maybe twenty-four months, that kind of window,” he noted, per Reuters.
OBSERVATION - These are the same generals who were totally blind to the Taliban take over of Afghanistan. IMHO, biden and US military weakness of command is only promising to accelerate China’s efforts to retake the island.
The report, titled “Military and Security Developments Involving the People’s Republic of China,” issued to Congress, pursuant to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000, warns that China could have as many as 1000 nuclear warheads by 2030.
“The accelerating pace of the PRC’s nuclear expansion may enable the PRC to have up to 700 deliverable nuclear warheads by 2027. The PRC likely intends to have at least 1,000 warheads by 2030, exceeding the pace and size the DoD projected in 2020,” the report said. “The PRC has possibly already established a nascent “nuclear triad” with the development of a nuclear capable air-launched ballistic missile (ALBM) and improvement of its ground and sea-based nuclear capabilities.”

Russia -
The Russian navy has started tracking the USS Mount Whitney command ship, which entered the Black Sea zone on Nov. 4,” TASS news agency quoted the defense ministry as saying.
OBSERVATION - This is to be expected given current tension with Ukraine and the Russian possessiveness of the Black Sea for its naval operations and bases.

Israel -
Israeli sources: The number of Iranian (backed) forces in Syria is estimated at around 22,000 fighters.
Israel has deployed new early warning system in north to boost defenses against Iranian drones, Maariv Online
reports; advanced IDF surveillance balloon can detect incoming threats from large distance; system is a joint US-Israel venture.
OBSERVATION - Any one familiar with Ft Huachuca, located on the AZ / Mexican border will recognize this style of tethered balloon. They were installed for the border patrol to monitor small, private aircraft that were penetrating into the US delivering drugs. Just better radar and technology with the Israeli application.

Iran -
Iran releases video of their soldiers seizing an oil tanker and training machine guns on two US destroyers that came to the scene but didn’t intervene: Another US warship, U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship Essex, was swarmed by Iranian drones Sources say the Iranian forces took control of the Vietnamese-flagged oil tanker MV Southys on October 24 at gunpoint and still holds the vessel off Bandar Abbas.
OBSERVATION - This is a dangerous show of weakness by US forces, one that will only encourage more Iranian aggressiveness in the Gulf.
