Good article on the Unmasked Site here — The More Masks Fail, The More We Need Them…
There are some great charts here, including both the US and International. The data shows that masks have no impact, and that cases rise and fall irrespective of masking. I found Israel and Japan (poster child for masking advocates) most interesting…
Twitter suspended Alex Berenson for a Tweet they claimed was misleading. Social media censorship is out-of-control. For solid and honest reporting, Alex can be found on substack here. This is the Tweet that did it…
This started to be a good story but ended badly. Imagine rescuing a dog that was half frozen only to find out that a fellow citizen reported you to the Police for violating a Covid lockdown. Is Ireland now a police state? Are citizens turning on each other? What kind of person does this? It is way past time to end this nonsense and start living again.
Neesha and her little pup sibling Harley were lost on an hike, taking in the outdoor air in the Wicklow Mountains.
If you've never been to Ireland, you should understand that these are 1) right near the city where most of the country lives and 2) the most beautiful thing you've ever seen
The dogs had bolted, and the owners had only ben able to find Harley. They thought Neesha was dead. But miraculously, two doctors on a hike in Wicklow found Neesha almost two full weeks later
She lost a third of her body weight, but now she is at home, snuggled up and warm with her family.
So far, so nothing-sinister. An incredibly sweet story of a pup that got home. But what I feel like a lot of my American friends don't know is that Europeans are living under lockdown restrictions we have never had here, with actual enforcement. So the dog-rescuing hero doctor?
Well you see, in Ireland, you can't go more than 5km from your house. It's not just notional either. 8000 fines have been given out in the little 4.5 million person Republic. You really aren't allowed out. You can't meet people outside, or take a long walk
This has been the case since October, when a 6 week lockdown was announced to "save Christmas." That was extended and is now set to last until at least May. Most recently, for no scientific reason, the government has proposed lowering the 5km radius to 2km
So in the Wicklow Mountains, a boutique hotel has been offering some of the only people allowed to be regarded as people instead of just viral vectors–healthcare workers–mental health retreats. You know, because the lockdowns are psychological torture.
Pretty cool that this mountain retreat of sanity was available to the doctors, in this country where everyone is unable to see friends even outside, and police check if you are too far from your house. But wait…
Some concerned citizen, a vigilant lockdown rules-enforcer, read the heartwarming story about doctors returning a stranded dog to its family and thought they should call the police.
Turns out, the hike may have been too long, so the doctors are under investigation and the hotel shut now.
Is the fact that any of this mutual surveillance and punishment is what following the rules looks like a sign of a healthy society?
Do my American friends know that in the UK right now, you can go jog in the park, but you can't meet anyone there, and you can't sit down? Much of Europe is living in what sounds like a paranoid fantasy prediction from what people here in the US said could happen
Look at this dog. Look at her. Somebody saw this picture and thought, "Those criminals. I'm calling the cops"
For becoming a place where hotels offering retreats to exhausted doctors who save cold, sad, stranded Golden Retrievers get shut down after curtain-twitching lunatics call the police on them, Ireland currently has about the Covid death rate of Virginia.
Will keep a running list of Big Tech censoring anything they don’t like…
Unreported Truths about COVID-19 and Lockdowns: Part3 Masks removed from Amazon without explanation. Story about the removal in the WSJ is here — talks about Twitter and Youtube censoring hundreds of thousands of Covid-19 videos including one from Dr. Scott Atlas who was an advisor to the President. My complaint to Amazon is here. These companies benefit greatly from the lockdowns and Covid-19 fear-mongering.
Facebook pulled ads for the following books (read more here). Regardless of your opinion on the topics, FB should not be selectively banning these books. Kengor has written some great books, my favorite is A Pope and A President.

You know what scares me more than Covid-19? The loss of our freedom, and the massive brainwashing and fear-mongering pushed by our political leaders, big tech, dishonest media, lazy reporters and fear mongering health officials.
Good thread and great perspective from former NYT Science writer Alex Berenson. His research on Covid is solid and you can learn more from his best selling booklets: Unreported Truths About Covid-19 and Lockdowns. Berenson is a solid journalist who follows the truth and asks tough questions.
1/ If I'd told you last March that in 2020 #Covid would kill about 1/5 as many Americans under 50 as drug overdoses;
That you would probably not know anyone who had died;
That you almost certainly would not know anyone under 75 who wasn't already very sick who had died;
This is an oldie but still relevant given that public sector unions put Democratic PA Governor Tom Wolf in office. No wonder we are still at a budget impasse…
This should be interesting. Governor-elect Tom Wolf will be sitting across the negotiating table with his largest campaign donors (to the tune of 2.7 million dollars). You have to wonder who will represent the taxpayers of Pennsylvania. We have serious challenges ahead of us — such as the underfunded Pension System — and neither Wolf or the government unions admit there is a problem.
Don’t expect any real reform (Education or Pension) out of Harrisburg anytime soon. Newly elected Governor Tom Wolf owes a big debt to government unions, and the rest of us will pay the price. Taxpayer dollars support the collection of union dues, which are used to buy influence in Harrisburg. Time to end this practice by supporting Paycheck Protection.
