Panicked by fears manufactured by the ruling class, the American people assented to being put essentially under house arrest until further notice, effectively suspending the habits, preferences, and liberties that had defined our way of life. Most Americans have suffered economic damage. Many who do not enjoy protected status have had careers ended and been reduced to penury. Social strains and suicides multiplied. Forcibly deferring all manner of medical care is sure to impose needless suffering and death. In sum, the lockdowns medical and economic dysfunctions make for multiples of the deaths and miseries of the COVID-19 virus itself.
Bad judgments and usurpationsthe scam, not the germsdefine this disasters dimensions. The COVID-19s devastating effect on the U.S. body politic is analogous to what diseases do to persons whom age (senectus ipsa est morbus) and various debilities and corruptions had already placed on deaths slippery slope.
Outside of the few who have gained (and are still gaining) power and wealth from the panic, Americans are asking what it will take to end this outragenot to modify it with any new normal decided by who knows whom, on who knows what authority. Since no one in authority is leading those who want to end it, Americans also wonder who may lead that cause. What follows suggests answers.

This THING is bigger than you realize. Marxists have come here for 150 years. Research the Fabian Society of England.
They first called themselves progressives. When that label was tarnished, they adopted liberal. Now, they use both as those who lived thru the horror & remember the Progressive Movement are dead.
Liberal once meant one who supports the LEAST amount of government for an ordered society, but proper use of words doesnt matter to propagandists.
After 100+ years taking over the government-funded side of the educational system, & decades indoctrinating students in Marxism by Progressive educators, its not surprising to see an anti-American revolution gaining momentum.
This is the moment the socialists in politics, the bureaucrats, and the guilt-ridden rich have been waiting for (note: not all rich feel guilt, nor should they), to flip America into Soviet-style socialism.

Fauci is the head COVID coup plotter.
Sadly, it is doubtful that this great evil will subside. The enemy has found the weak point and will exploit it endlessly. In waves of off then on.
Government gone evil. Without laws.
Long article written by someone trying to show off to their old English teacher.
That's your take on the article?
Really?
The beginning of the end...
BUMPS!
Suppose you had the smartest, EVIL minds in the world thinking of toppling The United States of America. Could you send it into chaos? Topple it? How? What vehicle could you use? What control tangents could you veer off from the vehicle? Does the vehicle have plausible deniability built into it? Would you practice with an event to lay down a template or just go ahead with it? NO need to answer. NO opposing views allowed to be amplified on a large platform. WITNESS.
MAX EVIL. Pit family against family, neighbor against neighbor, business against customer, friend against friend, city against suburb, black against white, male against female, FReeper against FReeper, etc., etc. Its working. Pay people to turn in their brother...$oro$-like. GIVE COVER TO LIKE-MINDED.
Evil people always support each other; that is their chief strength. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
If you had all the money you ever needed and were of EVIL intent, what might your next buzz be? CONTROL, CONTROL, CONTROL.

This was cooked up way above his pay grade.
I hope someone is tweeting Codevilla's column to Trump's Twitter feed.
I hope everyone, including President Trump, reads it carefully.

I was only 1/4 of the way through it.
Good “essay” that lays everything out but it could have been shorter and would be a difficult read for a lot of people.
Some people have difficulty with paragraph long sentences that have 4-5 commas in them.
No, far from it. This hoax is already being exposed for what it is, the last gasp of a socialist world hell bent on shutting down capitalism and freedom.
At this point we need to ask why President Trump continues to participate in this fraud. He is now actively contributing to his own demise.
The measure of excess deaths tells a similar story. During the six-week peak of the COVID event in 2020, deaths in the U.S. exceeded deaths during the same period in the previous year by 82,000. Considering that, concurrently, the 2020 flu season was one of the worst on record (typically the flu is responsible for some 50,000 deaths during the season) and given the CDC-mandated conflation of COVID numbers with others, the COVID-19 pandemic in and of itself did not amount to muchexcept in New York City, for reasons only partly known. By June 20, 2020 the CDC reported ZERO excess deathsmeaning that the figure for weekly deaths was within the long-term normal curve for that time of the year.
There's no link or reference to zero excess deaths. There are preliminary numbers from the NCHS showing the number of excess deaths prior to getting all the data from states and localities. They currently show lots of excess deaths: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm Currently shows 108% of expected deaths from 2/1 to present Here's the wayback machine from June 20th https://web.archive.org/web/20200620060850/https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm which shows 106% Makes sense, they had less death data from recent weeks. That's why it is labeled provisioal. You have click back to May 20th (May 19th data) to get under 100%: https://web.archive.org/web/20200520062443/https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm
On May 20th they got death data from April that put the total tally above 100% Specifically the week ending 5/16 went from 14% to 21%, the week ending 5/9 went from 60% to 71% and the week ending 5/2 went from 92% to 99%. It simply means they got more data in that data to complete those number from recent weeks. Obviously there was not 14% of expected deaths in week ending 5/16. Thus there was not zero excess deaths, just a reporting lag.
I can't give the author any benefit of doubt. I clicked all his link that says
In May the Centers for Disease Control, by then discredited professionally (though not, alas, in the mass media), was forced to conclude that the lethality rate, far from being circa 5% was 0.26%.
The link is https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html That page gives the lowest infection fatality rate as 0.65% The page was changed on July 10th (it says so at the top of the page). The page from July 1 https://web.archive.org/web/20200701043155/https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html shows 0.2% for scenario 1 and 0.4% for best estimate. I don't know how he got 0.25% but there could earlier versions with that number.
In short the guy collected web pages, didn't understand the content (provisional data in the first case and scenarios based on that provisional data in the second case). He saved the pages or data from them but labeled the May 20th data as June 20th. Notably he doesn't give a link for the claim of zero excess deaths. He is relying on his data collected previously and making wrong interpretations of it.
The current excess deaths (note that it is provisional data) is 113k. See https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm That's less than the current 140k plus that is claimed, but that's mainly because this data is provisional.
The bottom line is that there were 113k more Americans who died from something than expected from long term averages And more than that since the data is provisional. Some are almost certainly other causes mislabeled COVID. But the excess deaths are real and the article is wrong.
Go ahead, pile a little more sand on your head.
We already know of many cases of deaths "with" COVID and not "from" COVID that are labeled as COVID. Also the CDC allows presiumed COVID deaths to be tallied without a test. Their wording is something like "well you should test, but you don't have to if you think it's COVID".
Is that a masive political coup? Certainly the CDC with 99.94% political donations to democrats is part of the leftist deep state. They are out to get Trump. The main thing the author doesn't understand at all is that COVID is real.
We are the victims of a massive operation against us by the CCP and the callous blue state governors who killed their elderly and shut down their economies. Red state governers were a bit better but still shut down their economies. The destruction of economy was and is the goal. They don't just want to get Trump out, they want to destroy America to the extent they can. The evidence is overwhelming. Just one example: direct flights from Wuhan while the Chicomms literally destroy roads leading from Wuhan.
There are numerous wrong details in the article, I only chose two. I also wrote to the Claremont Insitute in the hopes of getting at least one correction. The claim of zero excess deaths is a major error, not an obscure detail. The current web page shows there are at least 113k excess deaths.
Thank you for posting.
