Mugshots, Pandemics & Unsung Heroes

Trump’s mugshot merch; coronavirus; Christine Anderson, Member European Parliament

Things are really getting crazy out there. Between Trump’s mugshot and a resurgence of Covid it’s easy to forget there are unsung heroes fighting in the background. So, I want to talk about all of these things in one “shot”.

If I was better at marketing, I’d put Trump’s mugshot as the headline image with this essay. But I chose the unsung hero, Christine Anderson, and a woman at that, which I figure it’s about time. Maybe Tucker Carlson should interview her…

But first of all, Joe Biden has just signed off on a proposal for Congress to “request additional funding for a new vaccine that works”. He also said, “It is recommended that everybody get it no matter whether they’ve gotten it before or not.”

Wait, so he’s admitting that all those other vaccines and boosters didn’t work, and we need a new one. Great news for Pfizer!

Sure enough, the World Health Organization just came out with another “variant of interest” and is urging countries to step up COVID surveillance.

WSJ just announced Covid-19 Is Back. Flu and RSV Are Coming. What to Know About Fall Shots.

Covid-19 wastewater levels and hospitalizations have been rising from low levels for weeks, and federal data show a rise in positive tests for respiratory syncytial virus, too. Health officials expect the flu to join the mix in coming months. Yes, Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax all plan to bring boosters to the market this fall. 

Big yawn, we’ve heard all of this before. Still, we are uneasy. Will they really do it again? “We’ll fight. We’ll never comply,” we say. While those who remain truly terrified of the virus think, “I’ll do whatever it takes to protect myself.” Here in Phoenix, I’ve noticed more and more people wearing masks—in 110-degree heat.

NewsNation reported that schools are grappling with an uptick in COVID-19 cases, temporarily closing or reinstating masks along with other pandemic regulations as hospitalizations from the virus are on the rise.

If it happens again, yes, most people will submit. That’s because this has never actually been about Covid, even though just the word, COVID, has come to dominate our consciousness to such an extent that it’s harder and harder to remember a world when it wasn’t a part of our lives.

Covid has always been about conditioning people to react emotionally to stimuli, like rats in a cage. Covid itself could be compared to a drug that creates an addiction. An addiction to the highs of each new disaster and the reprieves that come in-between where people have hardly enough time to recover before the next wild ride. In fact, they begin to crave the upheaval and cannot relax even if they wanted to.

Before Covid, nobody spent hours every day “doomscrolling” from one disaster to the next, deeper and deeper into the abyss. All on a device that is kept close to one’s body, so close that it has almost become a second skin. Without the device, users feel rudderless, fearful that they won’t know anything.

Joost Merloo’s The Rape of the Mind: The Psychology of Thought Control, Menticide, and Brainwashing is brilliant on this subject:

“There is another important weapon the totalitarians use in their campaign to frighten the world into submission. This is the weapon of psychological shock. Hitler kept his enemies in a state of constant confusion and diplomatic upheaval. They never knew what this unpredictable madman was going to do next. Hitler was never logical, because he knew that that was what he was expected to be. Logic can be met with logic, while illogic cannot—it confuses those who think straight. The Big Lie and monotonously repeated nonsense have more emotional appeal in a cold war than logic and reason. While the enemy is still searching for a reasonable counterargument to the first lie, the totalitarians can assault him with another.”

There is nothing logical about Biden telling us he wants funding for a new vaccine that works. This contradicts everything he has told us before. But this doesn’t really matter anymore. Those who believe what he says will immediately be fed one kind of news while those who disbelieve him will be fed the opposite.

Merloo again:

“Where thinking is isolated without free exchange with other minds and can no longer expand, delusion may follow. Whenever ideas are compartmentalized, behind and between curtains, the process of continual alert confrontation of facts and reality is hampered. The system freezes, becomes rigid, and dies of delusion.”

The news on Donald Trump is a great example of this.

He dominates the media once again. Only now, there is even more of it thanks to the rise of alternative media. Because our memories have been made very short, it’s hard to remember that not too long ago, Trump was silenced. It was vowed that he would never again return to the main stage. Just as most people thought he’d never be president in the first place, most people thought that since he lost the last election and was thrown off of social media, he had become irrelevant—the kiss of death in modern society. As Noah Yuval Harari warned us, the thing you don’t want to become nowadays is “irrelevant”.

And then, Trump came back with a vengeance and all those people whose hopes had been dashed had their hopes reignited. And all those people who thought he was a washed-up lunatic were thrown into a frenzy of wanting to see him sent to prison. Up and down, we go on the emotional roller coaster.

It’s the same with Covid.

There was a time when nobody thought we’d ever be finished with it. Conservative influencers rose to powerful positions in the alternative media because of it. They made a lot of money promoting themselves as the real experts. “Covid is a bioweapon”, then “the vaccine is a bioweapon”, and then an endless array of newly discovered “bombshells” associated with both. Now, many of those influencers are finding they must reinvent themselves or see their followers dwindle.

Let’s take Dr. Jordan Peterson, for example. He’s an important voice; I’m not saying he isn’t. But here he is, advertising a Nb. 02 event called A New Vision of the Future that he will be speaking at, with a photo of what could be a Trump rally:

“Looks like we might sell out the O2 2/3 gone already; two months to go get your tickets now,” he boasted on X.

This whole thing has become a circus performance and regular citizens who are suffering financial hardship are paying to keep the circus going.

What’s so bad about that, you may ask. People in financial trouble are dishing out a thousand dollars to see Taylor Swift so why not pay to see Jordan Peterson.

First of all, that’s just sad that people pay that kind of money to make Taylor Swift richer and themselves poorer.

But it’s even worse with Peterson’s event because of where the money is going. As pointed out by Peter Berthoud:

Nb. 02's optional charity donation for tickets goes to YoungMinds, an organization associated with Stonewall.

Stonewall is at the center of a toxic debate on trans rights and gender identity and has been known to encourage children that they can “change their sex” and do it with drugs as well as surgically. Below is from Stonewall’s website:

The Jordan Peterson event was recently promoted by Douglas Murray, #1 bestselling author of 7 books including 'The War on the West' and a contributor @Spectator, @NYPost and @TheSun.

One of my followers—I don’t like that term—on X, Steven Richards, had this to say about Peterson and Murray’s initial response to Covid:

The pair of you turned a blind eye to the tyranny in 2020 and believed that a not so special virus was the Black Death. Even if it had been, the totalitarianism was unjustified. You got the biggest call of your lives wrong. Why should anyone listen to either of you again?

But people do listen. Because they cannot remember anything past the latest frenetic disaster that happened yesterday.

Lots of people are making bank off of Covid and they will make bank off of whatever comes next, and it will be ordinary folk who are lining their pockets so they can hear news that massages their ears. Alex Berenson is raising incredible amounts of cash for his lawsuits. He settled the one with Twitter for an undisclosed amount, after promising to never give up, only to almost immediately start asking for more money to sue the government. And people are eagerly giving.

Many of the truly courageous, unsung heroes who stood up when it counted have lost their jobs and fallen into irrelevancy.

As one example, in Germany, a family judge who attempted to overturn a Covid mask mandate at two schools in Weimar has been given a two-year suspended sentence. He was sentenced for trying to say children should not have to wear masks.

Big influencers like Jordan Peterson, and the biggest one of all, Donald Trump, can say anything they want and turn their legal woes into money-making schemes.

Trump has a gift for self-promotion. So does Elon Musk. The two of them in cahoots, with Tucker Carlson as a third wheel, make perhaps the most powerful self-promotion team in the history of advertising.

Musk invited Trump back to X months ago, but he returned at just the right moment. First with his Tucker Carlson interview, which is now the most watched interview of all time and next with a post of his mugshot. As of writing this, it has 233.9 million views and 1.5 million likes. By the time you read this, those figures will be “irrelevant”. Oh, wait, I just checked again and it’s up to 254.2 million views.

Unable to resist the possibility of humiliating Trump further, Democrats decided to release the mugshot. Boy, did they miscalculate.

The Black community, who traditionally vote Democrat, are now embracing Trump as one of them.

“When you gonna learn, the more you indict, the more we unite!

In a video that’s since gone viral on X @TONYxTwo told a reporter:

“Yes. … Look what happened to Martha Stewart. She caught that felony. She goes to all the cookouts. With Snoop Dog. She is endorsed. … Bro, Trump is a brother now. You go to jail in Zone 6 in Atlanta, you’re [inaudible]. They f***** up. N***** like n***** that went to jail. They believe in that s***. …”

Podcaster and convicted felon Antoine Tucker shared a message of his own:

“I want to say to the new world order and to the illuminati: Thank you very much for being stupid, dumb, mother f******. We appreciate the fact that you keep elevating my guy, Donnie, to Teflon Don. And as you seen his caravan ride through the hood, and you seen all the love he got, when I tell you I speak for the hood, I tell you this sincerely. We don’t like you anyway. We don’t like the government. The guy be f****** over the black race for the longest. And we watch you f*** with the only man that’s ever offered black people anything. This n**** want to give us $500 billion, you want to lock the n**** up.”

The Trump merchandize started rolling out immediately, right on cue. Just as Trump’s interview with Tucker was prerecorded and put up on X five minutes before the start of the GOP debates.

As of two days ago, mugshot products had raised $7.1 million, much of it to be used to pay his legal fees, while Trump’s NFT collection saw a staggering 1200% surge in sales.

Products include T-shirts and long-sleeve shirts for $34, a $25 coffee mug, beverage coolers with the mug shot and the words, “Never Surrender!” This despite the fact that Trump did surrender to authorities in Georgia.

It’s all a lot of fun, you have to admit.

Still, if we look deeper at Trump’s interview, there was one topic glaringly missing: What about Covid? What about those shots and “warp speed”? What about remdesivir for children? If another “pandemic” is declared, what will you do?

These are questions Trump would not have agreed to answer. The focus is on him as a persecuted savior, a man of the people. Trump doesn’t need to campaign. If his Georgia trial remains there, it will be televised, and millions of people will be watching.

“You’re our only hope, Obi Wan Kenobi.”

No, Trump didn’t talk about Covid or pandemics in his interview with Tucker. But he did talk about love and hate and in association, the great polarization of the people within the United States.

That polarization didn’t start with Covid, but the combination of the ‘pandemic’ and Trump vowing to clean out the swamp is what brought it all to the boiling point.

There is definitely an upside to all of this. Millions of people woke up to the truth of the corruption within our government and the untold power the elites now hold on a global scale. But with that awakening comes a warning not to jump on any bandwagons leading away from the core reasons why we chose to stand up in the first place. Not to gain followers, not to buy a t-shirt, but to fight for the Truth.

Trump vowed to drain the swamp and he vowed to end Covid with the warp speed shots. The swamp is still there and Covid proved to be the biggest lie ever foisted upon, not just one nation, but the entire world.

None of the liars have gone to jail for it. Quite the contrary. Their wealth and power continue to grow, as they invent new ways to plague us.

Here’s a photo of the new director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo, described as an HIV expert and a lot of fun at parties, proudly standing next to the former director, her idol, Dr. Anthony Fauci.

And here’s a worker-bee (actually, I think it’s the CDC Director, Mandy Cohen), happily wearing a mask with Fauci’s photo on it (I wonder how much she paid for that mask and if Fauci gets a piece of it):

A couple of days ago, Alex Jones made a splash in the news by saying that lockdowns and mask mandates are coming back. Immediately, every alternative media outlet repeated Jones’s prediction with the same language, no different from what the MSM does.

“Alex Jones was right!”, they said. But why is this big news anyway?

Of course, more lockdowns are coming, more restrictions, more surveillance, more testing. It won’t stop. It doesn’t have to be Covid. It can be anything. They are preparing us for something by reminding the masses over and over again of what they did before and what they will do again:

The Daily Mail reported that a Covid variant with over 30 mutations in its spike protein has been dubbed the 'real deal' and could trigger a fresh wave.

NBC warns that the CDC is preparing for a winter with '3 bugs out there': Covid, flu and RSV. Their answer? Injecting babies with antibodies.

On July 17, the Food and Drug Administration approved a monoclonal antibody injection to help prevent RSV for children up to age 2. Unlike a vaccine that prompts the body to make its own antibodies, the injection works by delivering antibodies against RSV directly into the bloodstream.

The last thing babies and young children need in their bloodstreams are antibiotics! What they do need is a robust natural immune system where their own bodies learn to fight against disease and become stronger as a result.

As if that’s not enough, the FDA approved RSV vaccine for moms-to-be to guard their newborns. So, they will be drugged in the womb and after they are born.

US regulators on Monday approved the first RSV vaccine for pregnant women so their babies will be born with protection against the scary respiratory infection, the AP reports.

The real evil isn’t Covid, or RSV, or cancer, or diabetes. It’s the drugs they tell us we need that are destroying our natural immune systems.

We can be sure to hear more and more news stories like this:

School Barely Begins, Gets Canceled Due to Mass Illness.

School had barely started for Kentucky's Lee County School District NBC News reports. The district says nearly one-fifth of its 900 or so students came down with COVID, the flu, or strep within the first week and a half of school.

It’s nice and tidy for liberals to blame Covid and conservatives to blame the shots for how compromised people’s immune systems are becoming. But we are being poisoned in so many different ways—chemicals in our food, our water, as well as the very drugs they insist we must take for everything from depression to weight loss to indigestion, you name it. It’s a perfect plan because no one can ever categorically prove that it is just one thing—Covid, or the shots.

Now, we are being told, after all the hype in the news, that the CDC has no plans to bring back mask mandates, even as Covid cases rise.

There goes the roller coaster, up and down again, over and over.

This might be the most truthful thing they have said since it will no longer be the CDC’s responsibility to make those decisions. It will be up to the World Health Organization. The governments of the world can then use the excuse that they, too, are following orders from their superiors, backed by the experts and no one can go against the experts.

On June 28th the WHO announced its Pandemic prevention, preparedness and response accord.

At the same time, they announced that the European Commission and WHO have launched a landmark digital health initiative to strengthen global health security.

In June 2023, WHO will take up the European Union (EU) system of digital COVID-19 certification to establish a global system that will help facilitate global mobility and protect citizens across the world from on-going and future health threats, including pandemics. This is the first building block of the WHO Global Digital Health Certification Network (GDHCN) that will develop a wide range of digital products to deliver better health for all.

Part of the effort is “Infodemic Management”.

This is a form of “community protection,” and so it needs a form of “infodemic management,” as well as “collaborative surveillance.” It states, “Infodemic cannot be eliminated it can only be managed”. This is why WHO and partners have developed the approach of “infodemic management,” armed with new capabilities for the job. It describes these as “tools and approaches for social listening,” including “artificial intelligence that monitors social media”, as well as other systems such as “experts for community engagement.”

This has been developing since the start of Covid. You can read more about it in my piece The WHO's Gates of Hell where I quote WHO General Director, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, as saying we need “rules of the game”:

"To manage shared problems, like pandemics, you need laws and rules that bring obligations to countries… And I hope countries will agree to a binding pact so that pandemics can be managed better."

The plan, according to Tedros, is to “urgently strengthen WHO as the leading and directing authority on global health, at the center of the global health architecture.”

All of this raises the issue of the “conflict between human rights and public health” and begs the question: Should the rights of people be infringed upon in a quest to implement public health policies?

We know how this question is being answered. Individual rights must be surrendered for the sake of a new approach to global public health.

Bottom line, if you really want to know what they are up to, you have to read rather obscure papers like Moving towards Digitising COVID-19 Vaccination Certificate: A Systematic Review of Literature.

Here are some key points:

• The coronavirus pandemic is the greatest crisis of our time, having claimed over 2 million lives and shocking the global economy. Scientists and governments have suggested the idea of a digital COVID-19 certificate, to identify vaccinated persons easily.

• Vaccination is gaining global ground. The idea of a COVID-19 vaccination certificate is gaining popularity. Hence, there is the need for international health bodies (such as the World Health Organisation) to be specific as to whether COVID-19 vaccination certificates should be digitalised or paper-based [13].

• Artificial intelligence can be applied to detect fake COVID-19 vaccination certificates if the certificate is in a digital format.

• Furthermore, artificial intelligence can help identify and map non-vaccinated regions for strategic planning if digital COVID-19 vaccination certification systems are deployed.

• Furthermore, through the application of artificial intelligence, digital COVID-19 vaccination certification systems can organise migration patterns of migrants, based on data stored in the verification application, and assist in contact tracing.

• Blockchain (BC) technology, which is an immutable, transparent, and decentralised technology that provides a secured way of sending information, may ensure patients’ personal data confidentiality [14].

• Internet of Things and BC technology can be used to remotely access COVID-19 vaccination certificates.

Reading those points make their goals clear, even as they confuse us with conflicting news of yes lockdowns and masks, no lockdowns and masks, yes new vaccine mandate, no mandates.

All along, as I write in Building the mRNA Empire, the WHO is building mRNA factories all over the world, ready for mass vaccinations.

• “For the next pandemic, we’ll have gigantic mRNA factories in India,” says Bill Gates.

• At Davos 2023, Moderna chief executive Stephane Bancel said he would like to build mRNA factories on every continent.

• In partnership with Pfizer, BioNTech is building mRNA factories around the world.

All of this is happening behind the scenes while the world descends into the chaos of a possible third world war and a civil war in the United States.

How do we fight all these battles at once? Well, allow me to introduce you to a few of the unsung heroes who have never faltered in their fight against the WHO’s push for global control.

They are Members of the European Parliament Christine Anderson, Germany; Francesca Donato, Italy; Ivan Sincic, Croatia; Cristian Terhes, Romania; Mislav Kolakusic, Croatia.

I have shared their words in previous essays. Christine Andersen became a hero of mine when I heard her historic November 2021 speech that I quote in The Bloodsuckers:

"No one grants me freedom for I am a free person. Lock me up and throw away the key for all I care. But you will never be able to coerce me into being vaccinated."

In The Chinafication of the Western World, I quote Cristian Terhes:

“…there are certain fundamental rights that are individual and personal and one of such rights is the integrity of the body. No one outside of you can ever vote for you to inject something, for you to eat something, for you to do something with your body. It should be solely your will and your wish what to do with your body. It’s as simple as that. If we don’t understand this basic principle, we don’t understand how the Western world was developed.”

In Skinned Alive, I quote Ivan Sincec:

“And when it comes to freedom, more and more I feel that our constitutional rights and our human rights have been kidnapped and that we have to pay a ransom every six months, one year, we have to pay a ransom to get our freedoms back. This is simply unacceptable. Our rights are unalienable, that means that no kidnapper can take them from us…. And we accept nothing else.

These heroes have stood up time and time again in the face of great opposition. Here is their latest effort. They have launched The European Citizens Initiative. Where is our United States Citizens Initiative?

Christine Anderson:

“I am so very proud to be here today with seven other brave citizens who came here today to launch an initiative for the European Citizens Initiative. An initiative which will hopefully be accepted by the EU Commission, although I don’t really hold my breath, to be quite frank, but I seriously hope we will be able to do that. Because an unelected body like the WHO, who is controlled and run by multibillionaires should never be allowed to act in place of a democratically elected government. Never, ever. In democracies, ladies and gentlemen, it is government of the people and for the people.”

These MEPs remind us of basic and very simple truths that we should never forget, but that are being lost in all the chaos and hysteria of the news cycle. Moving forward into the dangerous times ahead, we must not forget that we know what freedom is and that we are aware it is being taken away and we must stand up against that.

We must accept nothing less than freedom.

Just yesterday I was having coffee in Whole Foods in Scottsdale, Arizona, and I overheard a doctor talking on the phone, becoming increasingly agitated. He was talking about the danger of statins and Lipitor in particular and how, while under patent protection, it was the highest-selling drug of all time, with worldwide sales of more than $12 billion a year.

He said he sees 40,000 patients a year and can’t close his eyes to the dangers of the side effects of these drugs. He lamented about how society is blind to the truth and just keeps on believing the lie that drugs will cure them instead of changing their unhealthy habits.

He described a party he went to in Las Vegas with a bunch of doctors where one of them threw what he said must have been a hundred Viagra pills on the table and said, “Now let’s have a good time!”

“I’ve never heard anyone say they felt better after taking any of these drugs, not ever,” the doctor ranted into the phone.

He then vented about the evils of psych meds and mandatory Covid vaccines. He was really on a roll and didn’t care who heard him.

What this doctor said was brave and true!

The powerful Mayo Clinic, where drugs are dispensed like candy, is just down the street from the Whole Foods where he sat. In 2021, the Mayo Clinic’s revenue increased 14%, to $15.7 billion. Nobody who is benefiting from this money-making machine, or is a prisoner of it, wants to see that revenue decrease.

There must be hundreds, thousands, of doctors like the one in Whole Foods. They are extremely dangerous to the global regime. A few MEPs speaking truth while all the others sit in silent compliance is dangerous, too. Such actions have the potential to inform and inspire millions of people to do the same. Hopefully this rising tide of dissent is what will bring about a revolution.
