When I’ve talked in the past about the patchwork tyranny post COVID-9/11, I had more mundane things in mind than the fate of a major tennis star.
Novak Djokovic was deported from Australia on Sunday after his appeal to reinstate his visa failed. And it failed not for health reasons but for political ones.
To me, the kinds of terrible rules put in place for ‘public safety’ always conjure up images of casual oppression. Endless videos of pathetic public servants intimidating priests in churches or police arresting pub owners for serving willing patrons.
But it goes far deeper than that. It’s impossible to even conceive of the ways petty bureaucrats and middle managers around the world have destroyed the lives of ordinary people simply trying to get through the day because of a flu.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 insanity Australia has been the poster child for this kind of thoughtless crime against common decency.
Australian Immigration Minister Alex Hawke’s decision to revoke Djokovic’s visa was made for political reasons. He didn’t try to hide it. If anything, he was proud of this decision.
Hawke said he accepted Djokovic’s recent Covid-19 infection meant he was a “negligible risk to those around him”, but that he was “perceived by some as a talisman of a community of anti-vaccine sentiment”.
“I consider that Mr Djokovic’s ongoing presence in Australia may lead to an increase in anti-vaccination sentiment generated in the Australian community, potentially leading to an increase in civil unrest of the kind previously experienced in Australia with rallies and protests which may themselves be a source of community transmission.
“Mr Djokovic is … a person of influence and status.
“Having regard to … Mr Djokovic’s conduct after receiving a positive Covid-19 result, his publicly stated views, as well as his unvaccinated status, I consider that his ongoing presence in Australia may encourage other people to disregard or act inconsistently with public health advice and policies in Australia.”
These are the words of the committed totalitarian. He hides it behind his public responsibilities, in this case the health status of an entire nation. If he’s not being controlled by outside forces (yeah, right) then he’s been infected with that dangerous solipsism which comes with this much raw power.
That corruption cannot be avoided.
But Hawke’s decision stems from Australia’s backing themselves into the corner over COVID-9/11 policy. They cannot be seen as backing down for anyone, especially someone like Djokovic.
To do so, as Hawke points out, would invite questioning the policy. And their policy is sacrosanct.
However, having admitted that Djokovic posed almost no threat of spreading COVID-9/11 the only thing at stake was the Australian government’s power.
This type of decision reveals 1) how deeply unpopular the COVID-9/11 rules are in Australia and 2) how weak the Aussie government’s hold over its people really is.
They could have weathered this if they had just quietly let Djokovic into the country to compete. They could have spun it had they wanted to.
They chose escalating the standoff to make an example of him to the unvaxxed population. There is no hope. You will submit. If we can humiliate Djokovic, just imagine what we can do to you.
And they revealed just how desperate they are.
Bureaucrats like Hawke have no sense of the politics of their decisions. They are order-takers, not order-makers. He was ordered to do this. When this standoff started it was during the height of the big push to drive fear over the Omicron variant of COVID-9/11.
That rollout failed spectacularly.
Omicron has flared up and out so quickly this affair now looks like the most insane application of government paranoia this side of Pyongyang.
Those that started this standoff created the mess and didn’t have the sense to clean it up.
Because they insist on building trailer parks in the face of a Cat-5 hurricane of public anger.
They hoped to send the message that no one can escape the jab. The Davos agenda of health passes and total technocratic control is inevitable. It’s the EU variant of the virus which Hawke’s immigration policies couldn’t stop coming to Australia.
What they wound up with is a whole lotta people shaking their heads.
But, don’t think for a second Australia is done sending messages to the untermenschen. Now, after he’s been deported, barred from competing and earning his living, Djokovic is liable for all the court costs associated with this decision.
Those costs are estimated to be $500,000.
The three judge panel that upheld the lower court ruling avoided any responsibility in the matter, neatly throwing the decision right back on Minister Hawke. Prime Minister Scott Morrison, clearly one of the people pushing this disaster behind the scenes, also left Hawke out to dry.
Next up for Djokovic will a standoff with France over the French Open. France and Davos will hound him until he submits because they think he cares more about his 21st Grand Slam title than he does his own health. It guess they didn’t get his message during the Australian affair.
But their message is very clear. We are in charge. We can make whatever rules we deem necessary. If you challenge them not only will we deny your challenge on arbitrary grounds but we’ll bankrupt you in the process.
And here I thought we in the post-enlightenment West could petition our governments over unjust laws. I thought this was the first world and not some tin pot dictatorship of thin-lipped, fat-headed midwits?
Only the most insane people are cheering this decision today. They are a part of the 29% of Democrats in the US who believe the unvaxxed should have their children taken from them. Sadly, there are still too many in the thrall of the COVID-9/11 mind virus.
But, if you didn’t get the message before the persecution of Novak Djokovic, I hope you get it now. And I hope he continues to be an example for the rest of us.

it’s a mystery to me how anyone can still believe in viruses
Perhaps because you can contract Covid-19 whether you believe in viruses or not?
Viruses are chemical poisons not biological, hence the hoax element. Covid 19 is the ‘flu of course which is in essence a chemical poisoning.
Djokovic has been reported to have earned over $150MM in his career in prize money alone not including commercial endorsements. While 0.500MM in “court costs” certainly is not welcome, it is minute for him. Presumably those costs are for his legal staff. Since his legal battle lasted about a week, those costs seemed rather high. He was probably forced to pay any fines or fees before he left the country. Any unpaid fees from the State should be responded to with the well earned expression, “Go fuck yourselves assholes.” Let them sue him in Serbia. As to banning him for 3 years, while he is still #1, he is in the tail end of his career due to aging and it is essentially irrelevant.
That’s not the point. Imagine if that were you or me. The bill would be the same.
That’s the message. Complain about your cage? Be bankrupted.
Djokovic paying that price to make that clear for us is a public service and a damn fine use of his money.
No, its you who’s got a wrong… again.
Rich and Powerful sports people, entertainers, and other powerful business people have the money to challenge immigration laws in any country.
The average person on the street does not.
There is fault on all sides, including Novak Djokovics’ handling of the situation.
But you neglected to mention that…
Djokovic is banned from entering Australia for **AT LEAST** three years. Good luck trying to collect from someone you won’t even allow to visit.
Serbia has already told the Aussi government they are appalled at Canaberra. Good luck getting the Serb government to enforce this imaginary debt.
The fact is that the debt is completely meaningless to everyone except for Aussi citizens… and well they voted for this stupidity so it is their own fault.
I used to think Aussi’s were a tough lot, always up for a fight for the craziest of reasons, based on Australia’s movie persona. But the reality is they are a nation of wussies.
That’s putting it kindly. Quite shocking truly.
Have you ever visited my country?
Yeah … Noise bridge, noise mile-of-Bondi-Beach, noise opera house, noise rock you can no longer climb, and a noise lot of Shielas running the place.
I got the message in July when Gov Newsolini unleashed his CA state employee vax ‘mandate’, and derisively claimed the unvaxxed are akin to “drunk drivers”. I was mocked as a ‘conspiracy theorist’, when I stated concern about the US Gov/Military going door-to-door to ‘educate’ the unvaxxed. “The goal is to piss them off, until the end, that is the plan”. Macron, Gavin, Draghi, Biden, Fauci, Schwab, Austria, NZ, Australia, etc., they all speak the same language regarding the unvaxxed. Like Dr. Malone said months ago: WAKE UP.
Great post as usual thank you
The average moron looks at the Djoko story and thinks “well, sucks to be him, maybe he should have taken the injection”…apparently not registering that through their own eagerness to show proof of vaccination to engage in human economic activity, as so many morons are doing as we speak, they are subjecting themselves to, and perpetuating, the very nascent system of oppression being used to exclude those who don’t share their eagerness. (In short, get ready to take more injections, dummies!)
This is a SYSTEM. A new form of statecraft for the 21st century. Do people really think these measures will be temporary? Hah! And people have all the power in the world to end this—they just choose to give it away.
I’m in affluent, educated northern VA. A LOT of stores have taken their mask signage down…95% of people wear them anyway. I see people with double or triple masks, with masks taped to their faces. And of course no one bothers me for not wearing one…because people are paralyzed by fear! Which has me wondering…how long is this sustainable? Blech, I don’t want to know. In the 17th century, there was the Thirty Years’ War. Hmmm…Thirty Years’ Pandumbic? Anyone?
Yes, the average moron thinks this. And they will be overwhelmed in the end. Northern VA is not indicative of the rest of the world or even the US.
I dunno, I was in Central Florida last week, and there were plenty of masked folks to be seen … some even on the beach. They were probably mostly Snowbirds, though not all. The only saving grace was at my local fish camp, mostly locals, where only one mask was to be seen on an old lady among a couple hundred folks … I guess we can excuse that.
Dear Matt
Hello from the UK. I put time length at about 3 years remaining as we uncannily follow a timeline similar to WW2 80 years ago. Indeed, the USA also follows a timeline similar to the ACW, 160 years ago. Both wars ended 8/9th May although the war against Japan carried on a few months more.
I wrote this post which explains things.
https://alphaandomegacloud.wordpress.com/2022/02/07/timeline-anticipated-events-in-world-war-3/
Here in Paris, two weeks ago they mandated masks whenever outdoors. But that lasted 9 days until the riots forced them to rescind that order. But along the way my wife was stopped when walking the dog and threatened with a 135 euro fine. Rotten f*ckers. Still sucks now, but not as bad
The G7 is bankrupt and they desperately need to get revenue any way they can.
Your wife’s fine was about Paris’ bankruptcy, no matter what excuse they give.
If you choose to live in a bankrupt city (which is your choice) — you are implicitly giving them permission to steal from you.
Macron (and whomever replaces him next) needs suckers like you a lot more than you need him. Here’s hoping you realize this soon
Sorry to dump on you for living in Paris, but I work with a lot of Francophiles who live in a dreamworld of nostalgia for what Paris once may have been.
Please take an objective look at Paris today.
You essentially live in a gated community surrounded by Algerian slums. Fine, you have different labels. But boil it down and admit that you live in a gated community surrounded by people who are neglected and very angry.
France has a few gated communities, but the neglected and downtrodden dominate France. Not all are Algerians. There are plenty of neglected Frenchmen too.
Remember when there was a terrorist attack in Nice. The police ignored the populace at the scene, and raced to protect Bono who was sipping coffee ten kilometers away?
That is France today. It costs a lot for you and the political class to repress the riff raff. You need armed guards. You need attack dogs.
You need passports so the mercenaries know whom to protect and whom to neglect.
That is France today. It also describes the Washington DC beltway, where million dollar homes for members of Congress abut crime infested neighborhoods. Mercenaries (“capital police”) protect the political class from the masses.
The tax base cannot support the G7 political class. That is what your wife’s ticket really means. That is what Djokovic’s fiasco means.
Enjoy Paris but keep an eye out for guillotine construction.
to those who believe appearing tough is everything, reasonable behaviour is a sign of weakness
Excellent comment
“They hoped to send the message that no one can escape the jab.” —> “What they wound up with is a whole lotta people shaking their heads.”
This is so obvious for all to see that I am deeply perplexed as to why it continues.
The only behavior that I can think of that resembles this is that of the unwanted persistent suitor who morphs into a lovelorn stalker. They can’t shake the notion that one more unwanted and unreciprocated contact will change the mind of the individual they have a crush on. However, to all outside observers it the whole endeavor looks like slow motion train wreck… where each and every effort by the stalker takes them further and further from their goal; yet through some kind of madness they persist on their course.
For suitors in this condition, a restraining order and counseling are the solution, but what remedy is there for a government behaving this way?
Imagine the hero he could have been if he publicly stated that he refuses to defend his titles in a country with a tyrannical government, which Australia has become, along with the rest of the world in this mass hysteria. Lay out his entire case — why he’s not a health risk because natural exposure confers superior immunity, why the data shows that shots aren’t working, especially in Australia, etc. But first and foremost, that every individual has bodily autonomy. Like it or not, celebrities are idolized by billions, and they have a lot of power. He could literally go down as the hero of this age. Most people so it seems, need to be told how to act, and what to do. They need an example of courage to follow. Heck, he could even say that protests aren’t good enough…the tyrants need to be removed physically. There are 100s of thousands of you out there on the streets every week, so why not do something useful rather than waving the flags of your oppressors? If it gets him arrested so what? He could singularly change the world.
California governor Newsome ate at the Michelin star French Laundry restaurant with a dozen or so of his top political donors — while “ordering” everyone else to stay home for safety.
Nancy Pelosi got her hair done after b!tching non-stop about Trump this and that. We have to lock the country down — everything except my own hair dresser!!!
And lately we learned the fascist Boris Johnson was locking down England, fining and arresting people for walking outdoors. One poor Englishman was hunted by a drone on a desolate trail with no other humans for miles — he was fined and arrested. While this was happening, the fascist Boris was having a party in the gardens of 10 Downing street with dozens of co-workers.
If a person puts other people at risk, maybe they are being selfish or don’t care or whatever.
But these people put THEMSELVES at risk. Not the public. Not strangers. They put THEMSELVES at risk.
Newsome, Pelosi, BoJo and many many others are covid deniers. Never mind the wu-flu shots. These politicos act like they don’t even accept that covid is a real virus. How else to explain their decisions to put THEMSELVES at risk?
If they truly believe covid is a problem, why aren’t they at the very least acting to protect THEMSELVES???
I’ve asked this of every wanna-be covid expert (the ones who still want to lock things down in the USA). Not one of them can produce a coherent answer. Never mind a convincing answer, they can’t come up with an English sounding sentence. The cognitive dissidence is causing their brains to crash like a windows blue screen.
Lew,
Yes, that is exactly what Djokovic would have done if the entire affair wasn’t a psyop. He would’ve boycotted the Australia’s Not Open. Men’s tennis is all in with the great reset. The top players are all pals with Gates, and the WEF is wrapped around ND and his foundation like a Boa constrictor. The Joker just played a big joke on the entire planet. Hero, my ass.
James Bond,
Your not so rhetorical question does indeed suggest that a terrible and sinister hoax has been played on the public. Why, indeed, did so many public officials flout safety protocols? Simple. They didn’t feel unsafe. I don’t necessarily think that means there isn’t a SARS-CoV-2, but I do think it means, at the very least, that it was never worthy of the horrific response to it. When geriatrics like Boot faced botox Nancy aren’t worried why the F**k should you be? No one has an answer to it as you say. They can’t even form a coherent intelligible sentence by way of a response.
The fact is that far fewer people died from this illness than what was reported, as the CDC now admits after almost two years. Absent ventilators and run, death is near being administered, which should have been replaced with prophylactics Ivermectin, HCQ, Budesonide, Vit D etc. very few would have died from any age cohort.
I am 100% positive that covid is a real thing, and (for otherwise healthy persons) it is as lethal as the flu or common cold. For the elderly or immuno compromised, the flu can kill you just like covid.
The flu shot, like the wu-flu mRNA shot, is maybe 50% effective at preventing the flu, and about 60% effective at reducing the severity of the flu if one gets the flu. The flu shot does not prevent infection nor transmission of the flu. However, the flu shot doesn’t mess with the DNA in your immune system nor does it cause myocardosis as the mRNA shots do.
There was never a reason to lock down the global economy. The wu-flu shot was rushed to market to the exclusion of any other options. The medical community has lost the public trust as a result.
When I first got into the business world, a wise man told me to beware naked men selling underwear. If underwear is so good, why isn’t the naked man wearing it? On the same thinking, if covid was truly lethal to the average schmoe, then I would expect world leaders (who get intelligence and medical briefings the rest of us do not) to protect themselves at the very minimum.
BoJo gets briefings from MI5 and every medical research facility in the western world. Pelosi gets US intel and NIH briefings. Newsome probably gets less, but he certainly gets info from UCLA and Stanford and Kaiser.
Talk is cheap, especially coming from a politician. Actions speak louder than any words. If covid was as lethal as the media hysteria, I would expect these politicians to protect themselves at the very minimum.
Hello from the UK
Very good comment. Covid 19 is real, but is the ‘flu made out to be a monster by advertising.
I used to think vaccines were of some use until, at 60 years of age in 2020, I researched properly. I now realise that it was all again advertising and I was hoodwinked. No vaccines ever have been of use, it merely appeared so. Big pharma/medical Nazis are quite good at advertising and infiltrating governments etc.
A.k.a as lobbying or bribery and corruption.
Lockdowns were largely pointless from health perspective, but did make many people reevaluate their lives so there are pros as well as the obvious cons.
They did expose how stupid so many people had become. I write about such matters on my website. I use humour and am not PC as I try and deal with the mad stupidity of people.
Novak was the poster child for the New World Order….”poster child” in the sense of Vietnamese children running away from a napalm attack on their village. I was just praying for him to get the hell out of there before they gave him the whole Clockwork Orange treatment. How much longer is this shit-show gonna last? Just asking….
I’ve noticed a *LOT* of employers immediately dropped the Gates Passport requirement the instant the Supreme Court ruled it illegal.
The big banks in NYC (which with their employees currently pay 68% of NYC taxes) have CEOs who worship in Davos every year. But those CEOs are discovering that bankers don’t want to return to NYC. Crime, taxes, homelessness, and yet another imbecile in the mayor’s office. Bankers can operate anywhere there is broadband (which is almost everywhere). The premium once given to NYC real estate is going away as more people realize location doesn’t matter for 68% of the NYC tax base.
In many ways, NYC is microcosm of the entire G7. And in many ways, NYC is in the position of Detroit / General Motors was in the early 1970s. They aren’t the only car company in the world anymore, and the stuff they make is crap.
The Aussi PM is panicking like Roger Smith, and making the same mistakes as GM did. But one can say the same thing about Paris, London, Rome, the ECB, Washington DC, the Fed, Tokyo or the BoJ.
In 1970 (to pick an arbitrary starting point), GM made something like 65% of all cars in the world, with Ford and Chrysler adding another 15% or so. Ten years later, GM was getting the second of many many bailouts, the UAW was decimated, factories were closing all over the place, and patriotic Americans were driving Honda and Toyota.
US government spending — the Apollo missions, LBJ’s Vietnam, and LBJ’s Great Society — made Bretton Woods collapse and USD denominated oil prices to skyrocket. GM was heavily levered to the previous world where the US could do as it pleased.
Today, LBJ’s pointless stupidity has been replaced with Fauci’s pointless stupidity… and a dementia patient is running GM. Trillions (in today’s dollars) were thrown at Vietnam, Apollo, and social justice causes … but this time trillions were thrown at Afghanistan and covid and (deja vu) social justice causes.
Yesterday, it was GM that was levered to the old system. Today, it is the G7 governments that are over-levered.
Djokovic and Australia are just a side show
I agree in part and disagree in part.
Metropolitan areas, ie huge Cities are dead and have been dead for a long time but people did not acknowledge that fact. Every Major City in Western countries has become a hell hole cesspool and worse. Nothing of interest to any normal human being happens there any more and the SCUM that destroyed the monuments to the history that allowed them to live and breathe was the terminal event.
The inbred mental dwarfs that try to run Australia I am sure have a date with destiny. I do not understand why some one has not set up a gun running operation to them and to Europe. Tons of money to be made. God knows there must be a few assault weapons in warehouses around the globe still in crates.
LBJ made Vietnam and the Great Society, not Apollo. Those two helped to destroy America, Apollo was the greatest achievement of the US in US history. The USSR really won WWII and they were the catalyst for the Manned Space Program, but the US did all of he MSP on its own. Before microchips and MS Dos and other downstream technology.
Its been over 50 years now, but who else has sent men to the moon and brought them safely back to Earth? Who has even come close? No one that’s who.
The so called US leaders have squandered the Greatness of the US for Cheap Tricks and plug nickels. Mind you over the last 50 years.
Gator — the manned space program was an amazing achievement. But as you acknowledge, 50 years later it went nowhere. We haven’t been back to the moon, and after a brief spurt of activity, Skylab was abandoned and fell out of orbit.
Kodak used to dominate film photography even more than GM controlled automobiles. Kodak was THE film and camera company. Kodak invented the digital camera in 1975, about the time the US abandoned Skylab. Kodak was 20 years ahead of anyone and everyone else.
Thirty years later, Kodak had done nothing with digital photography. They were overrun by foreign competitors who didn’t drop the ball. Kodak went out of business, destroyed by a technology they invented decades before anyone else, but neglected.
NASA put a man on the moon and built Skylab. But 50 years later, NASA is bumming a ride to the international space station on Russian rockets.
Both SpaceX and the India Space Agency can put a rocket into orbit for less cost than NASA can order lunch. The space shuttle was too costly even for the largest economy to operate. China just started manning its own space station, decades after NASA abandoned Skylab.
Maybe I shouldn’t have focused on Apollo, instead I should have said manned space program as you did. But the analogy with Kodak holds. Fifty years after Apollo and Skylab, those achievements have gone nowhere, and now foreign competitors are exploiting the tech instead of the US.
Vietnam and social justice were even bigger wastes of money (and lives), but only in a relative sense.
More importantly, the G7 governments are massively over-levered to stupid “stimulus” spending that goes absolutely nowhere. G7 governments have spent trillions on the covid lockdown, and not only was there zero benefit — the costs are staggering. Mal-educated students who missed school for two YEARS (not two weeks as promised), non-covid health screenings and conditions that were willfully neglected, dramatic increases in suicide and drug/alcohol abuse.
Mal-educated kids will inherit trillions in extra debt taken out to fight another pointless war. The war on poverty, the war in Vietnam, the cold-war in space, the war on drugs, the war on terrorism, wokesterism, the war on covid… its all the same war. Its government bureaucrats against taxpayers and voters.
In the first Mission Impossible film, Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt sees his team decimated before his eyes. Having survived, he immediately falls under suspicion as having been the mole that compromised the mission. He realizes the mission has been a fraud – it only existed to flush out the traitor.
It was a Mole Hunt.
Although COVID is primarily a tool to impose authoritarianism, it strikes me that it has served a secondary purpose for the Davosians.
They now know how many of us will comply. How many will silently resist. How many will collaborate. How many will grow angry. They know the size and distribution of those that will resist their Great Reset. The moles have been flushed into the open.
We probably all understand by now that COVID is synthetic. If the Davosians were to release a Sigma or Omega variant now and claim it was vaccine-resistant, would it finally separate us into Brownshirts vs Browncoats?
And now sensitizing society to the need for the destruction of pets…….

Interesting. I suppose we may say though, that those who think Covid 19 is a monster rather than the seasonal ‘flu exacerbated by stupidity, are making a mountain out of a molehill.
I have just checked. You couldn’t make this up. Davosians is an anagram of ‘avian sods’. This reminds of the last ‘flu scam, bird ‘flu. They are sods these Davosians.
I don’t know if “only the most insane” applaud the deportation. Greenwald reported that just about everyone in Australia cheered the government’s move. They LIKE their jailers down there.
Stupidity is very hard to fix. Add some criminal greed by people like Fauchi, and some tyrannical inflated feelings for politicians and it takes Nuremberg trials and maybe War to stop the insanity.
Yes. I have said since 2020 there is a very severe case of Stupid 20 going round. This is very contagious, unlike Covid 19, a.k.a the ‘flu since re-branding last year (Let’s go Branding!).
The current version I call Very, very Stupid 20, or the Moronic version which is of course an anagram of omicron.
I did a post on Stupid 20 should you be at all interested.
https://alphaandomegacloud.wordpress.com/2021/01/08/stupid-20/
Of course none of this has anything to do with the Australian mining company, Rio Tinto, that was stopped from lithium mining in Serbia, for now, and Djokovic having an opinion about all that…
Unfortunately, we are all Assange now. Truth is a crime in Prisonworld.
Medieval intolerance says another….

Hi Tom,
Sorry about the OT, but I have a question. On the macroscopic level (50,000 ft view) was the BBB bill really an attempt at a US currency devaluation? Obviously the US government could never announce one, but by spending $5 Trillion on anything (eg Tiddlywinks) it would achieve the same result. I saw this mentioned somewhere else and thought I would run it by you. If true, it would be pretty sneaky, as the public would be distracted by the content, while US dollars flood the world economy.
Just wondering?
The way to destroy confidence in the dollar is to send the fiscal side of the equation so far out of whack with reality that everyone walks away while at the same time binds down the Fed into QEternity.
This is the path to debt default and CBDC’s.
Good question.
I’ve wondered for a while if the Fed is using certain endeavors as dollar heatsinks – Tesla and shale oil seem like possible candidates?
Tom – how do you interpret Xi’s warm welcome by Schwab?
And the content of Xi’s speech seemed very…………globalist?
That they are (and have been) aligned on certain issues but not others. People made a big deal out of Schwab’s introduction of Putin last year and yet… here we are.
Xi will do what’s best for China. They will take from the WEF program what they want and no more. On that point nothing has changed.
If you doubt that:
https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/china-coal-production-hits-record-avoid-energy-crisis
China is going to suffer during the Fed’s tightening cycle. Europe is as well. For a short time and on certain issues (like global liquidity) you will see them putting on the happy face, but don’t think for a second that Xi is putting up with any of Schwab’s bullshit for China.
Schwab can destroy Europe all he wants, and the US, China won’t intercede and will help, but that’s as far as it goes.
If you can’t see that at this point, I can’t help you.
Thanks – as usual if your premises are correct then that analysis looks good.
You really think the Fed is going to tighten – they aren’t bluffing this time?
Many are speculating that if they tighten, the bond and equity markets will crash again, and then they will get the blame.
I’m betting that now they are being told to “choose the form of the Destructor” (destroy markets or the dollar) they will pull the plug.
Because no central banker wants to see a Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man wearing a Federal Reserve gift shop hat stomping down global monetary avenues.
They already have tightened… look at the H.4.1 report… December bond purchases… $60 billion. November $90 billion.
Understood.
And the yield on the 10Y has risen 50 basis points in that time.
How high will it go before the USG starts sweating I wonder.
Peace, love, family, the Church of the East, what could possibly go wrong?
JokeO’Witch made a joke of the rules and he has been punished for trying to be above the law.
There are also laws against quarantining people up for two years for no reason. There are laws against destroying businesses. There are laws against making kids truant for two years. And there are laws against causing a public panic.
When do you plan to enforce any of these laws?
The Joker thought he could flaunt the rules. He found out he couldn’t. He was sent home. Nothing to see here.
All the G7 “leaders” have been flaunting the rules for years. Why do you support enforcing these so-called rules in some cases but not in other cases?
If following the rules is so important, why don’t G7 leaders lead by example?
You write “… It’s impossible to even conceive of the ways petty bureaucrats and middle managers around the world have destroyed the lives of ordinary people simply trying to get through the day because of a flu. Since the beginning of the Covid-19 insanity Australia has been the poster child for this kind of thoughtless crime against common decency.”
That does not happen to be the case. It is not the “petty bureaucrats and middle managers” here in Australia doing that at all. Rather, those are usually where you find the occasional helpful person who will help beat the system set up and frequently varied without notice by the higher ups. A case in point was the first judge who tried to help Djokovic.
That is why it is unlikely that “Bureaucrats like Hawke have no sense of the politics of their decisions. They are order-takers, not order-makers. He was ordered to do this.” Here, order-takers mostly take the orders but then work around the orders; only those with input into the orders act like Hawke.
Am I the only one to think that all this was a set up from the get go by Australia…they allowed him in knowing full well that they were kicking him out all along…teach him and others a lesson…bastards…
That is an interesting thought, I had not considered that.
They are still bastards whatever. I write about a few on my website.
…eliminate personal belief exemptions…. coming to CA…

Im going to share this one..
Dear Tom
Many thanks for this and other posts. It is a relief to have sanity from you and your commentators in a sea of left wing loonies, sadly all too often female, who, despite my trying to point out as gently as I can, will not get their heads round the truth.
I have not, I believe presented my standard text on Covid 19 for consideration, and perhaps I may do so here. I hope it will be useful.
“I have had my fair share of vaccines, including polio I believe. I used to think vaccines were of some use until, at 60 years of age in 2020, I researched properly. I changed my mind.
Covid 19 is the ‘flu, dressed up as a monster to scare people, re-branded if you will. This helps big pharma etc, control the populace and make more money.
The ‘flu is the internal toxicosis of the body, mainly via urea, partly due to metabolism of food and partly due to the many poisons in our environment which can and do enter our bodies in the air, food and water. The ‘flu cannot be transmitted to someone else as it is individual to each person.
Unless your blood is given to someone in a blood transfusion, for example.
Injecting poisons such as via vaccines merely adds to the toxicosis problem. Vaccines have never been of any use, it is merely that constant and persistent ‘advertising’ persuaded people that they were of use. The various deaths and harm have been well-documented over the decades. It is being documented now.
Vitamin D deficiency is the true pandemic due to indoor working and living away from the sunshine which, if we do the right thing things, will give us vitamin D (free!). Big pharma etc. are not keen on free as they don’t make much money out of it.
Vitamin D levels drop in the winter months, depending on latitude, due to reduced sunshine levels and as any gains in the summer months are depleted.
Lack of vitamin D causes rickets among other things. Polio was merely rickets re branded again for big pharma to make money. The polio vaccine was pointless. A good dose of vitamin D such as was once given via cod liver oil in a spoon (a disgusting taste I understand). You can now get this in capsule form of course.
Vaccines are neuro-toxins, if there is anything in them at all, as are most big pharma drugs. Therefore they are at best pointless.
If your immune system is in good order then by and large you will tolerate a poisonous vaccine. If weakened you will suffer various side effects. If your immune system is very poor you may die.
Boosting your immune system with vitamin D can go a long way to protecting you against the toxicosis, but vitamin C is very good as an anti-oxidant to help flush the toxins out of your system. By and large you should be able to gain your vitamins etc from good, untainted food. Highly processed foods will not help.
I have seen the statistics on Australia since February 2020. These show a close correlation between Covid cases and vaccination. It is abundantly clear the vaccines are causing the case numbers rise, as would be expected. Look at other statistics and you will no doubt see the same correlation.
Vaccine makers will say that correlation is not causation, although try telling that to those who fall ill immediately after the shot (or die!).
However, they use the same argument for justifying that vaccines do any good, that because people don’t fall ill or not so badly, it is the vaccines which have helped. Pure nonsense, and unsubstantiated at that. Lots of factors change over time and each person is an individual, not a herd.
I have done much on Covid 19 etc., here is my link to my summary. That gives access to the various other issues. I cover the statistics in the UK and USA and more recently those in Australia.

The following explains the variants. These are merely fear techniques to fool the gullible.

The following explains the media fear campaign.

A useful website on the deceit.

It should be noted that fear tends to ‘freeze’ the body’s immune system from functioning correctly and can stop people doing sensible things. Like avoiding having foreign bodies injected into their systems.
And I wonder how many people would choose to have a vaccine if they had to pay for them directly rather than via their taxes (vaccination is not free)?
As regards vaccinated/unvaccinated I gather the goal posts keep changing so unvaccinated currently means not fully vaccinated in at least some countries. This means people who have had vaccines are lumped in with those who have not had recent vaccines. Therefore the people of the world are being duped into having something nasty put into their bodies.
Unless they like playing Russian roulette with their bodies of course. But then that is both sad and mad.
As regards reasons of variance of symptoms, if any, between those who are vaccinated the problem lies in not knowing what exactly in each vial; sadly people will sell nothing for something and the vial might contain only saline, it is impossible to tell without testing each vial.
Vaccines are causing the issues by and large nowadays and case numbers and deaths will rise as a consequence. I recommend avoiding vaccines like the plague.”
Please note I do use humour as necessary on posts and pages to lighten the mood and help make the points. I will use strong salty language if required. I am not PC.
Many thanks again for all you do.
Kind regards

Please excuse the nom-de-plume, this is as much for fun as a riddle for people to solve if they wish.
