Maybe unrelated, but I went to a local television station's web site with adblocker turned off. There were seven ads disguised as stories (usual outbrain crap) couple of actual ads and eighteen news stories.
Photos for eight of the news stories were stock photos (corporate signs, police light bar, etc.) Five of the stories were press releases converted to news stories, using photos sent by the agency sending the press release. Two of them were crap stories taken from social media (Local high school does one of those cringy multiple people singing a song thing, except they didn't call it cringy.) One story about a church fire uses a photo someone took with their iPhone and emailed them. Three stories where it looks like someone actually showed up to cover the story. Two of those photos were cops standing in a parking lot.
Point is, 90% of these "news" stories were crap that was fed to them, they found a photo for illustration, either provided with the story or taken from a stock agency and uploaded it. A lot of times, there isn't a nefarious intention, but most of it's not verified or even investigated.
I’ve thanked you before but I’m saying it again! I always find some interesting items on the News Blast. Thanks!
i remember, probably at least 10 years or so ago, there were torrential rains in the Hill Country here in Texas and the Colorado River overflowed. Later it came out that the rains were caused on purpose, and that it was just a little “oopsie.” An experiment gone bad. Meanwhile, people lost their homes and their lives. But of course, they didn’t care.
The Dems have to get all the push-back-in-time value out of the DOJ not investigating the “opposition candidate,” vis-à-vis Ukraine. Too many Democrats are invested in too much corruption for that not to be an overriding factor.
They’ve already got their alternate candidate picked out and either their ballot-harvesting fraud and/or the $350M, ostensibly to “refugee support,” will pay off enough illegal alien mischief before and on Election Day 2020, or it won’t, but at least those Dems are betting on Ukraine corruption to be deep-sixed, probably through a backroom deal, like the next McConnell $250B being held hostage.
They think they can’t let the wide-reaching Ukraine scam out of the bag, but the trouble is, there are even bigger fish to fry, all of which will tend to “erode” (to put it mildly) the Dem party.
(Pelosi is also trying to ensure a power dynasty for her children and that of other influential California families.)

Agree with the same steely resolve subject to change in a flash.

Laura Ingraham mentioned the digital certificates when she interviewed Pompeo last night. It was a good interview.

Found this with a little additional information on the Harvard scientist who was arrested.
“On the same day that Lieber was arrested, Lelling’s office unsealed a federal indictment against Yanqing Ye, a grad student at Boston University’s Department of Physics, Chemistry, and Biomedical Engineering, charging her with visa fraud. Federal prosecutors said Ye hid her position as a top lieutenant of China’s People’s Liberation Army on immigration forms to facilitate her work conducting “numerous assignments for the PLA,” including “assessing US military websites, researched US military projects, and compiled information for the PLA on two US persons with expertise in robotics and computer science.” She was, prosecutors believe, an embedded Chinese spy—a military intelligence officer moving within the Boston University system and funneling military secrets back to her PLA handlers.
Ye is now being sought by the FBI. She is believed to have fled to China.
In December, another researcher whose visa was sponsored by Harvard University, Zaosong Zheng, was arrested at Boston’s Logan Airport for allegedly stealing 21 vials of biological materials from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, wrapping them in his socks, and trying to smuggle them to China in his checked baggage. On Feb. 28, a federal judge issued a protective order for “sensitive government discovery materials” in Zheng’s case. U.S .District Court Magistrate David Hennessy wrote in the ruling: “restrictions are necessary to protect the confidentiality of proprietary business information.” Zheng has been held without bail since his arrest in December.”
I guess it’s more debatable if a person is so frail that almost any illness would have resulted in death, but that doesn’t apply to most of the covid-19 deaths that I’ve read about.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some deaths have been active and healthy middle aged or young adults, but the majority are eldery with co-morbidities.
And how many other Chinese people feel the same way but are afraid of having their organs removed etc?
Agreed. Now Birx/FauXi are trying to cover themselves with their insane earlier estimates and “modelling”.
Man, I need to write up my essay on this stuff. So much of societal decay goes back to when the CIA infiltrated college campuses. Harvard, Stanford, a lot of the other Ivys were infiltrated.
Tom Wolf's The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test does a great job exploring the 60s drug culture, Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters, LSD, goes back to "research" in California colleges.
Research has also discovered that black seed oil (cummin) kills such viruses. I’m trying to discipline myself to 1 tablespoon morning & night preventively.
It’s also so he can figuratively say to the media, you can shut down my rallies but you can’t shut me up or prevent me from connecting to my base, which is the subset of this country that are actually true Americans. The others are foreigners or forsymps that need to go back where they came from presto.
One public health type I heard interviewed pointed out that those that died with underlying conditions may have lived for months or years had not they contracted the chinese virus, so in that sense it most certainly was the cause of death.
