After a year there is zero evidence government edicts slowed the spread of COVID-19
Robert Zimmerman, Behind the Black, Feb 24, 2021

…All these conclusions are entirely consistent with earlier studies, all of which found that the draconian and unprecedented measures imposed by governments during this epidemic were all worthless in slowing the virus, but quite successful in ruining numerous lives and destroying the world’s economy, while in the U.S. serving to effectively nullify the rights accorded all citizens under the Constitution.

The worst part of this whole sad story is not that our leaders are corrupt power-hungry fools who gladly abused their power, but that the majority of Americans bowed meekly to that abuse.…

How many people would still be alive today without media COVID malpractice?
Elizabeth M. Economou, American Thinker, Feb 26, 2021

If there's one thing we've learned from the COVID-19 lockdowns, it's that the mainstream media duped us time and again.…

We now know that asymptomatic spread is still being weaponized to justify draconian lockdowns — even as a recent research study of nearly 10 million people in China reveals "not a single transmission of Coronavirus from a person without symptoms." This is big news. And yet, not a peep from the mainstream media.

Meanwhile, on the shuttering of nearly 100,000 businesses nationwide, job losses of up to 40 million, the erosion of our civil liberties, and PCR (polymerase chain reaction) tests with false positive rates as high as 60 percent, the media's silence was deafening.

Note to those who may be unclear on the matter: Wakanda was invented by comic book creator Jack Kirby in the 1960s; it is not real.

"FORTUITOUS COINCIDENCES"
h/t PoliNation
I’m on the side of the road crying… I have to tell you why.

…Katie, Kevin, and I left at 5am yesterday morning to go to DRAW’s Jackson, MS campus. We picked up the 5 skids on the way, and left early this morning to deliver the water to World Vision’s warehouse in Dallas, TX. With the weight of the water in the trailer, we could tell the tires were struggling to hold, but we hoped for the best. A couple hours ago, about 90 min from Dallas, one of the trailer tires blew out. We pulled off immediately to figure what to do next.

But that’s not why I’m crying.…
