Would they be half as diligent with fake voter registrations.
Nursing Director May Face Prison for Allegedly Making False Coronavirus Vaccine Cards
It should be the authorities who are demanding these cards who should be facing prison time.
This was going to happen. We can't stop fake identifications at the best of time. Where some would be reluctant to get a fake I.D. they would see nothing wrong with getting a fake vaccination card so they could keep working or whatnot.

Mary Kay Barton forwards this.
The just-released $1.8 trillion plan, presented just weeks after Biden signed a $1.9 trillion in COVID relief spending into law, includes "free†community college as well as universal preschool for all three and four-year-olds.
"Mr. Biden could usher in a new era that fundamentally expands the size and role of the federal government,†The New York Times reported.
How Much Debt Is Bearable?
The announcement comes months after the Congressional Budget Office released a report projecting a $2.3 trillion deficit in 2021.
Biden’s plan will almost certainly make the deficit worse. Though the plan contains various tax increases to fund its programs, the taxes are likely to fall well short of government outlays, economists say.
"The laws of economics are more rigid than the laws of the federal government, and these tax hikes are unlikely to yield the windfall Biden expects,†Joshua Jahani, the managing director of Jahani and Associates, noted in a recent NBC News article.
As a result, the $28.2 trillion national debtwill swell even faster. Worse, when unfunded liabilities are included in the balance sheet, as private companies are legally required to do, the debt exceeds $120 trillion.
How much risk these obligations present is unclear.
Miltmore then goes on to discuss the Roman Empire and the debt trap that destroyed the glory of Rome.We look amazingly like the fallen imperium.
I would conclude with this:
Revelation 18:15, NLT: "The merchants who became wealthy by selling her these things will stand at a distance, terrified by her great torment. They will weep and cry out,"
That is as they watch Babylon burn. I fear that is where we are headed.

We all knew this would be the end result. Too bad our leaders didn't understand that - or didn't care.
Pandemic health costs pushed half a billion people into poverty
More than half a billion people globally were pushed into extreme poverty last year as they paid for health costs out of their own pockets during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the World Health Organization and the World Bank.
The pandemic disrupted health services globally and triggered the worst economic crisis since the 1930s, making it even more difficult for people to pay for healthcare, a joint statement from the two organisations said on Sunday.
But of course this is the WHO and U.N. so their solution is.....you guessed it!:

Russia has moved 75,000 troops to the Ukrainian border in response to U.S. military exercises.
Joe Biden blames climate change and Donald Trump.
The reality is that the Democrats tamped up tensions for four years with the Russians as part of their campaign to "RESIST!" and accuse Mr. Trump of being a "Russian asset". What was Russia to think?
At the same time Joe "harefoot" Biden has shown nothing in the way of backbone. His disgraceful retreat from Afghanistan "Run Away!' showed he is a man of great courage in the face of the news media but little else. His weakness around the globe has emboldened Russia and the Bear may well invade Ukraine, making that country a vassal state. China might also invade Taiwan.
We appear to be drifting into war, much as Europe did in the First World War. We have no sober or serious leadership; only partisans seeking their own power and ease and profit.
China's economy is collapsing. Xi may well try the old trick of launching a foreign war to get himself out of trouble.
Putin knows this and knows we won't resist on two fronts. It's a good time for a land grab.
And since Biden has taken steps to reduce both the oil production of the U.S. and the refining of Canadian oil (and gas) Russia now plays the key role as energy provider to Europe (Biden greenlighted their pipeline) and so Putin knows we dare not upset him or Europe freezes this winter.
This is what happens when you have an idiot with dementia in office.
We are in a very dangerous time. And that without any real leadership.
And it's getting hot. Russian Su-30SM fighter jets attacked NATO F-35's in the Black Sea near Crimea. We are playing brinkmanship. Russia is not a good country to play these games with; they don't take it kindly.
We may be in the most dangerous period in our history.

Fake news is taking a big hit today.
First, Brian Williams, the teller of tall tales who got caught lying and did not lose his job, is finally leaving NBC.
Brian Williams Signs Off From NBC After 28 Years
But the even bigger news is that Trump-hating Fox liberal Chris Wallace is ducking out from the Rupert Murdoch media empire.
Chris Wallace Announces Departure from Fox News
Neither gentlemen will be missed.
The Peewee Herman of cable news ruined his career at Fox when he chose to insert himself in the Presidential debate he was moderating, taking the side of Joe Biden in what was a disgraceful display of media bias. But that wasn't the first time Wallace showed his liberality and it wasn't the last.
Wallace was only there because his father was Mike Wallace, com-symp from Sixty Minutes.
Wallace took over Fox News Sunday 18 years ago from Tony Snow, who had to resign due to cancer. Snow was fairly conservative. Wallace was not.
There is rumor circulating that Wallace is ducking out because of the Ghiselle Maxwell trial, that he may be implicated in the "Lolita Express". I rather doubt that, but one never knows. It seems far more likely that Brian Williams would be the guy flying to Slave Island.
At any rate, I wish Mr. Wallace an unfond adieu and suggest he make sure the door doesn't hit his posterior on the way out.

Does anybody remember Gerry Ford’s campaign slogan ? "Whip Inflation Now†(WIN).
Then Carter came in and Fed Chairman Paul Volker strangled the life out of the economy. Balloon mortgages and car loans thru the roof.
It all came about from the Arab oil embargo in 1973 - 1974, in retaliation for U.S. support for Israel in the Yom Kippur war.
It’s the oil, Bubba. It’s all about the oil. Thought we had that fixed a little while ago.

If we are not careful this will happen across our country. It is based on a false narrative that we have to and fossil fuels use. Fossil fuels give us more than 80% of our energy and are not easily replaced. What they are doing in California stupid.

Hyper-caffeinated mad money moron Jim Cramer has lost his last marble. It seems to have rolled away and down the street like the meatball in the children's song.
CNBC's Jim Cramer gushes over economy as 'strongest... I have ever seen': 'A marvel to behold'
From the article:
"We have all spotted the ‘Help Wanted’ signs, the housing and apartment shortages, the tremendous demand for goods and services- a marvel to behold," Cramer said. "Oh, people are confident about their jobs. I say fantastic. And the ability [they] can get better ones if they want to. They're spending more than I've ever seen but they're doing it with cash, not with credit. They're doing so in a Roaring Twenty's style!"
Cramer went on to defend Federal Reserves Chair Jerome Powell for raising interest rates to make sure "we have some but not too much inflation" and knocked "the media and money managers" for spinning a "fear-based narrative every time Powell talks."
"We’re still
looking at rising costs associated with port delays, truck driver
shortages, and, of course, COVID-related illnesses. The fact that we
only have one kind of inflation, though, is tremendous news, and it
will make Powell’s job easier and should space out the rate hikes so
that they’re palatable, so that they don’t hurt our portfolio," Cramer
told viewers.
Cramer apparently doesn't remember how the Roaring Twenties ended. And he apparently doesn't understand why the current times look so much like them - because both were caused by the same things.
The Federal Reserved had pumped up the money supply during the twenties. It was a period of easy inflation with the theory that it could go on forever. When the stock market finally crashed the end result was the worst depression in U.S. history.
The Fed has doubled the money supply since last year.
Cramer also thinks the high employment is somehow evidence of a strong economy. He's wrong; the economy was shut down and is only now reopening - it has NOT fully reopened. OF COURSE businesses are begging people to work - many people are still in laid-off mode and enjoying the bounty kindly provided by the Biden Administration's generous welfare package.
Goods and services are not in short supply because of demand, but because of a lack of them. That is a bad sign, not a good one.
He boasts of people spending cash and not credit. People spend cash when the are NOT confident their jobs will be there. It is a sign the public is worried about where we will be next year.
Here Cramer shows he's drunk the Kool-Aid:
That is code for "I'm with you in the Ruling Class!"
"Trust the Science" is a meaningless phrase employed these days to suggest Conservatives and those who disagree are superstitious witch-burners. But what does it mean? The Science in no way supports his statement. In fact the vaccine has proven amazingly ineffective and possibly quite dangerous.
But like SCIENCE DUDE!
Cramer has cracked his round little Humpty Dumpty noggin.
The fact is there are all kinds of very serious signs we could face economic disaster soon. The distribution problems are not minor glitches but are signs of a serious disruption of supply chains worldwide. The price of oil and gas have skyrocketed thanks to the Biden Administrration's insistence on fundamentally altering our economic model and imposing draconian climate change regulations. China's biggest corporation just defaulted. We have millions of illegal aliens who have come into the U.S. to take American jobs and services. And we have these huge spending bills which nobody intends to fund - more money from future taxpayers. Inflation is running rampant in no small part because of this.
BUt the economy is roaring - yessir!
I've encountered this idea a few times from liberals who are trying to alter reality.
And this goes back a long way. The media refused to report the good economy under Reagan for a long time. And when George H.W. Bush was president they single-handedly created a recession by hammering the idea a recession was coming. When investors finally lost confidence and a minor recession came about they got Bill Clinton and Al Gore into office "worst economy in history", "everything that should be down is up and everything that should be up is down". They refused to report the end of the recession too, waiting until after the election then giving credit to Bill Clinton.
The talked down the economy all eight years of Bush Jr.
They refused to report much bad news under Obama.
And they tried desperately to avoid reporting the roaring economy (perhaps the best in American history) under Trump.
So now they are simply ignoring reality again and reporting the best economy in history, even whil large numbers of people are not working (but aren't"out of work" since they arenn't actively looking for a job.)
So Cramer isn't just a dimwit- he's a liar.

China's Evergrande has defaulted on over $1 billion in debt. A second, smaller company has also defaulted. This one is about to get interesting.
And for those who invested in communist China, I have zero sympathies for your problems.

Big Tech is starting to sweat according to Sundance at Conservative Treehouse.
From the article:
It is a partnership of mutual benefit. U.S. government officials use their political power to direct the filtering mechanisms of Big Tech. In return, the tech empire facilitates the reelection of political officials to support the network.
However, a large and growing band of rebels have been assembling platform architecture outside the controls of Big Tech. The method of delivering what you are reading right now was created specifically as part of this architecture. A growing network of dissident people in/around the tech industry continue to build the framework for alternative platforms on the internet, and now Big Tech is starting to realize it is actually possible for ants to eat an elephant.
Notice how the focus of concern from within the Axios articleis not about the creation of the alternative platforms per se’; what the Empire is really angered about is that money is available to support the rebel alliance. "Many of these efforts couldn’t exist without the backing of major corporate figures and billionaires who are eager to push back against things like "censorship†and "cancel culture,†the Empire says; as the officials inside the system gnash their teeth in anger.
That section under "why it matters†tells us the Empire storm troopers, FBI, DOJ and government regulatory agencies, are likely to target the financial mechanisms, people and groups, who help fund the Rebel Alliance. Watch for it.
The Empire is worried about these cloud-based hosting possibilities and the creation of server banks to support dissident voices. Everything from video platforms and book publishing companies are being created outside of the control of the Empire. They are starting to worry how their business models will be affected as their audience shrinks. Thus, the government subsidizing of these Big Tech platforms is likely to become more prevalent in the future.

Well, now the Left is saying we suffer too little pain and need more of it.
Dopamine Nation: Why Pain is Crucial in an Era of Easy Pleasures
Fear not; the Biden Administration will restore our national dopamine levels to the proper pain thresholds!
I would point out this is much like other campaigns run by the media to help the Democrats over the years. During the Clinton era Lewinsky scandal they ran articles praising lies and deception. Then during the Obama era they ran articles praising low economic growth and unemployment. I remember them saying how great it was to be unemployed because then you could follow your dreams. Now we are being told pain is good for us; be grateful times are hard!
Does anyone really believe they would be running things like this if a Republican were in office? If Trump were still there?
The fact is, the Left has always hated America for NOT suffering at the same level of many other nations. There has been and is a desire to punish America and Americans, and that only has gotten worse since America elected Trump and failed to elect Joe Biden. The liberals hate Americans, whom they view as ignorant bigots deserving to be brought down a few pegs. So they seek to convince people they deserve to suffer, that suffering is a good thing to be embraced.
Now, there is an old saying "suffering is good for the soul" and it may be good for us in eternity, but there is no reason to seek it out. No child seeks to get spanked and that is a rational response.
But in the twisted minds of the Left Americans deserve pain, and in fact many on the Left model their thinking after the Marquis de Sade, who was quite influential in the genesis of the Free Love Movement - the precurser to the Sexual Revolution. His love of cruelty and submission spawned a whole movement, and many of the Left think it a wonderful thing.
Basically this is an intellectual version of Fifty Shades of Gray".

Data on vaccination and infection rates from 68 countries and 2,947 counties across the US show there is no reduction in infections for higher vaccination rates.
The data actually shows a trend of higher infection rates for highly vaccinated locations, and lower infection trends for low vaccination rate locations.
While health authorities and vaccine supporters will try to explain away this important finding, they are not being scientific, if they don't provide proper research to back their opinion. Given the billions spent on the Covid-19 pandemic response, some research in this area wouldn't go astray.
For instance, could low vitamin D and/or Zinc levels explain the high infection rates in highly vaccinated locations? Could it be that widespread use of cheap anti-viral and anti-parasitic drugs explain low infection rates in certain locations?
Our health authorities and government are not following the science by making blanket mandates for vaccinations, while placing blanket bans on other Covid-19 preventative measures and treatments.
There needs to be a Federal Royal Commission into the pandemic response. Any politician who would not back such a Royal Commission must laughably believe our response to the pandemic couldn't have been better.

The St. Louis area was hit by a series of tornadoes last night, with several fatalities and a lot of destroyed buildings. Rescue operations are ongoing.
In Defiance, Mo. - a very far-flung exurb of St. Charles County - an F3tornado destroyed multiple houses in the quaint wine making community, killing at least two people and doing considerable property damage.
But the real story is in Edwardsville, Illinois, where an Amazon warehouse full of shift workers collapsed, trapping at least fifty people inside. Rescue workers were hampered by the continued tornadic activity as well as heavy rains and high winds. There were fatalities but as yet the number is undetermined. Rescue workers are still sifting through the rubble in search of trapped people.
For the record my father and my brother live just across the river from there in north St. Louis County.
Edwardsville is a college town, home to Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE).
Last night was a tragic and horrible one and prayers are needed for the victims and their families.

The EPA is proposing https://www.cfact.org/2021/12/10/epa-proposes-to-hammer-oil-and-natural-gas-with-crazy-new-climate-rules/weeping new climate regulations designed to strangle oil and gas in America.
At a time of high energy prices the Biden Administration seeks to make them much, much more expensive - and no doubt will try to blame rising prices on the pandemic and on the Trump Administration.
It's disgraceful. It hurts the poor. It is both unnecessary and wrong-headed.
It's what you voted for America. Enjoy!
Oh, and while you are at CFACT, catch this little gem from Larry Bell; he tears into the Biden Administration and their war on energy.
Oil and gas are the lifeblood of our nation. When these are costly so are all goods, which are manufactured and transported via fossil fuels. The price of everything rises when gas is costly.
And if they succeed in banning internal combustion engines? That won't only be the ending of oil companies, but of all the businesses that feed off of them. Quicktrips will be gone, and all the jobs with them. Many people now use Quicktrip or other gas station convenience stores as markets. They will be gone.
Auto repair shops - gone.
Tire companies will wind up cutting back.
Fewer autobody shops.
People will drive less and so the businesses that thrive along highways will disappear. That will include roadside restaurants, knick-nack shops, motels, roadhouse bars.
It will have a profound impact on the American economy.
But Biden and the other spoiled brat liberals will feel so good about themselves!

The linked article reflects the concepts advanced by Carlo Rovelli and "White Holesâ€, the flashback from the super massive black holes at the core of every spiral Galaxy. Matter goes into the black hole but is not squished out of existence. Rather, the matter flashes back out, along with pulses of matter and energy called Gamma Ray Bursts. In fact, new matter and energy is continuously being introduced into the Universe.
There are about 30 things wrong with the single Big Bang. The bursts of matter and energy explain the Cosmic Ray Background Radiation. We have multiple "Mini-Bangs†going on all the time.

Creepy Facebook admits in litigation with John Stossel that its climate 'fact checks' are just opinion.
Climate is a hoax.
If Facebook differs with that statement, that would just be its opinion.

Tim adds:
Well it's about time. AND if they admit their "fact checks" are in fact editorializing then they should be held to the standards of a publisher. It's well time America and the world stop giving these clowns a pass.
