U.S. Senate Votes to End COVID-19 Emergency

Senators voted by 48-47 on Thursday to end the COVID-19 public health emergency. However, the same resolution will be defeated in the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives and the administration has already said that if it reaches Biden’s desk he will veto it. The Hill has more.

Senate Republicans on Thursday passed a resolution to nix the coronavirus national public health emergency, their second win in as many days amid Democratic absences.

Senators voted 48-47 on the resolution, spearheaded by Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), a day after they were also able to pass a measure to nix President Biden’s vaccine requirement for health care workers.

“I would ask him to listen to the people and end this declaration of emergency,” Marshall said in an appeal to Biden ahead of the vote.

Both votes were party line, but Republicans were able to exploit Democratic absences. Three Democratic senators were absent – Sens. Mark Kelly (Ariz.), Dianne Feinstein (Calif.) and Alex Padilla (Calif.) – compared to two absences for Republicans – Sens. James Inhofe (Okla.) and Richard Burr (N.C.) – effectively giving the GOP a majority in the chamber.

But the resolution, like the vaccine mandate vote, is going nowhere in the Democratic-controlled House. The administration also vowed ahead of the vote that if it reached Biden’s desk, he would veto it.

“Continuing to protect against COVID-19 and ensuring that our response remains nimble are top priorities of this Administration. Therefore, the Administration strongly opposes Senate Joint Resolution 38, which would terminate the national emergency declared on March 13, 2020, and unnecessarily and abruptly curtail the ability of the Administration to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic,” the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) said in a statement.

The Democratic Party is committing perhaps the greatest folly in its history.

The Republicans, the party of Lincoln, will appear more and more to be the party of liberty and reason.

“Reason” appeals to the intellect. As IQs in the Anglosphere drop and populaces becomes infantalised, feels-are-reals appeals to emotion, and someone-else-will-pay socialism are increasingly what will win elections.

And if you can’t win an election, you can always “fortify” it instead.

Many people nowadays have their “thinking”, such as it is, formed by Big Tech, the Media, and governments; probably more. In reality, their thought isn’t autonomous, but is a replica of the thoughts of a limited number of others. It’s very similar to the old book and film stories of human minds being taken over by aliens, such that the people become pre-programmed automata.

In these conditions, reasoning, based on individual knowledge, experience and perceptions, just disappears.

It’s almost like they don’t care about the next election, because they know the fix is in, or because the Republicans who will replace them are basically batting for the same side, just with different colour rosettes.

Put another way: what do you think will change after the midterms, and the next Presidential election?

Their politicians, like ours, are bought and paid for, and there’s not a great deal we can do about it, certainly peacefully.

To put it crudely, I think the Democrats have lost the plot. The Republicans are busily constructing a counter-narrative which, I suspect, will be very plausible in an unpredictable number of states. That doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re insincere. DeSantis, for one, is interesting – he actually bothered to examine the advice he was receiving, and to get a variety of it.

As for what will change: probably not increasing economic inequality; the decline of the American middle class; and the nightmarish existence of an underclass!

I think he has family concerns which will impact any timing of a Presidential Bid. He’s a decent guy who wouldn’t sacrifice his family to live in the White House. He’s happy as Governor of Florida. If he can make it a win-win for both him and his family, he’ll run. Otherwise, he’ll wait.

Official Biochemical and Statistical Evidence 100% confirms Moderna created Covid-19 By The Exposé on March 3, 2022 Evidence has emerged which proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the pharmaceutical giant Moderna, the company that has made billions through the sale of an experimental Covid-19 injection, actually created the Covid-19 virus.  Covid-19 means: 19 nucleotide sequence and not 2019 at all. On February 23 the Daily Mail ran an article showing that Moderna has patented the 19 base letter (nucleotide) sequence which codes for the Furin Cleavage site in Covid-19. By a concerned reader They cited a Paper by Scientists in India, Switzerland, Italy and the US (cautiously entitled: MSH3 Homology and Potential Recombination Link to SARS-CoV-2 Furin Cleavage Site) in which they calculated that the chances of a 19 nucleotide sequence patented by Moderna randomly appearing in Covid-19 in circumstances where it does not appear anywhere else in nature are 1 in 3 trillion. Furthermore they did not merely apply for a patent on 2016 February 4 with US9587003B2: as reported in the Daily Mail. They actually applied on 2013 December 16 for 4 patents with US9149506B2, US9216205B2, US9255129B2, US9301993B2:as well. So Moderna had developed the 19 nucleotide gene sequence… Read more »

Dr Ugur Sahin, the COVID-19 vaccine he designed for Pfizer was designed in just few hours in a single day (on a computer) on January 25, 2020. No other vaccine in history has been created and manufactured so quickly. Previously, the fastest vaccine ever developed took more than four years. co-founder of BioNTech Not only that, Pfizer Chairman (((Albert Bourla))) hasn’t gotten around to having his shot, or Dr Ugur Sahin, last I knew. And it went from laboratory straight into human arms without any animal testing first – mRNA never used in humans ever before – doesn’t that strike you as odd?

GMO HUMANS All the Covid-19 “vaccine” patents mention gene deletion. All the patents except one, mention “complimentary DNA” (cDNA). cDNA is a chimeric mRNA cocktail that’s being coded into Human cells using artificial genetic sequences in cross-species genomics. According to the US Supreme Court ruling in 2013, altering Humans with cDNA makes them patent eligible. The court documents show that cDNA is made using modified bacterium and Supreme Court judges ruled it patent eligible. This means that a plant, animal or Human, could be patented and owned if first genetically modified with cDNA. Mark Steele summarized it perfectly by stating: In the US, the Supreme Court has ruled that vaccinated people worldwide are products, patented goods, according to US law, no longer human. Through a modified DNA or RNA vaccination, the mRNA vaccination, the person ceases to be human and becomes the OWNER of the holder of the modified GEN vaccination patent, because they have their own genome and are no longer “human” (without natural people), but “trans-human”, so a category that does not exist in Human Rights. The quality of a natural person and all related rights are lost. This applies worldwide and patents are subject to US law.… Read more »

The Nefariousness of Neuralink Neuralink had a contractual agreement with the University of California Davis, receiving more than $1.4 million for their participation. In response to a public records request by the doctors’ group, UC Davis withheld almost all documents, claiming it was in the “public interest” to do so. Yes, because the truth will literally make you nauseous. Brazen, audacious, and yet permitted. This time around, however, the egregious violations include removing portions of the monkeys’ skulls and inserting electrodes in their brain. Additionally, to fill in ‘dead space,’ they used an “FDA-approved” “BioGlue” in an unapproved manner, killing at least two monkeys by destroying portions of their brains. When I looked up what the eff this substance is, I learned its ‘glutaraldehyde’ and ‘bovine serum albumin’ that together supposedly make an excellent adhesive strength by creating strong protein cross-linking bonds. Does anyone care that it causes tissue toxicity and shouldn’t come in contact with any nerves? Once you get the rubber stamp of approval, Merkley explains that the particulars are not scrutinized. In addition to using toxic adhesive in the noggin (head), the monkeys were caged alone, had steel posts screwed to their skulls, and suffered “facial trauma” and… Read more »

Trans Humans: “They” know your name, where you live, your telephone number, they have your DNA and with modern DNA technologies, they can forecast what sort of a trans human you are and will be and if you are suitable for experimentation, or kill you off, when not suitable. After Neuralink, your thoughts will be provided by a computer somewhere and “you won’t own anything and you will be happy” and you will probably be warehoused with other modified trans humans for whatever purpose they decide to put you to – no more kids – kids will be created to order in test tubes and modified to suit and the numbers of trans humans will be regulated by those in charge and that is very much it for humans and non humans from here on in – all of this within the next 2 years in all probability, if the vaccines don’t kill you first – so what you see today, won’t be here for you trans humans “tomorrow”. Me: Which fits neatly in with globalists saving the planet from overcrowding by killing us, the planet empty of us humans and trans humans, for them. You want to blame someone… Read more »

You assume that people will meekly agree to that nonsense.

Here’s some suggestions:

  1. Identify the patent attorneys filing and prosecuting the Moderna claims and murder them.
  2. Identify all legal officers associated with the Supreme Court Judgement removing human rights from ‘transhumans’ and murder them.
  3. Identify every single Executive of Moderna Inc and all major investors of Moderna Inc and murder them.

There comes a time when the human rights of those who deny other humans ‘human rights’ due to being ‘transhumans’ can be cast asunder and they can be murdered with impunity.

Of course, they could simply be ‘encouraged’ to commit suicide.

But if you think Bill Gates will be cooperative, think again.

Not really – more like “consolidating their stolen powers with sly confidence, planning to steal more and move on to the next stage of their ‘conspiracy’ designed to enslave the population.”

Here in the UK, check out their proposed legislation to limit our Human Rights, our privacy, the right to demonstrate and free access to uncensored information. Their artificial and deliberate hike of energy costs is an attack designed to increase poverty and state dependency, raise ( un-payable for some) debt levels and reduce our standard of living – their oncoming deliberately created panic buy ‘food shortages’ will soon be on the way to be blamed the Russians who through unbearable provocation they deliberately drew into war in the Ukraine, hoping of course to prime a civil war bloodbath.

Low profit and effective medicines are bashed and marketed as ineffective because they go against their narrative and profit plans. One of them is wonder drug Ivermectin.
