China Kills Hong Kong Democracy in Dead of Night

Ivo Fysic December 22, 2021

In the dead of the night, the final symbol of Hong Kong Democratic resistance to fascistic China was dismantled unceremoniously by pro-CCP Hong Kong Officials. The goons representing the CCP Kong dismantled a sculpture memorializing the Tiananmen Massacre, the source for yearly gatherings that brought out thousands in commemoration of that freedom-killing day.

Meanwhile, Disney and the NBA continue to closely court the fascistic nation-state of the CCP, hoping for those big China market dollars, even as China finishes off, forcefully, the sovereign will of the people of Hong Kong to remain a free people. It’s ok to create a police state in a democratic city, forcefully, but it’s not ok to mis-pronoun someone, or so Disney and the NBA would have you suppose.

University of Hong Kong removes Tiananmen Massacre monument in dead of night

From hongkongfp.com

Excerpt:

Workers at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) removed the Tiananmen Massacre monument late on Wednesday night, months after the university said the statue must be go.

Statement by the sculptor, Jens Galschiøt

I’m totally shocked that Hong Kong University is currently destroying the pillar of shame

It is completely unreasonable and a self-immolation against private property in Hong Kong- I have now for over 3 months written to Hong Kong University that I would like to move the sculpture.

But it has been completely impossible to get in touch with them – all my attempts to contact them have been rejected and my lawyer in Hong Kong has also tried to contact them, but failed.

It is my private property and the sculpture belongs to me personally- I have written to them several times and the Hong Kong Alliance has sent out a statement that it is my private property and that they only have it on loan for exhibition at Hong Kong University

So I have to demand that Hong Kong one take care of the sculpture. And I will claim compensation for any damage to the sculpture.

I myself have offered to go to Hong Kong with a team, and remove the sculpture nor have I…

Effort to Create Worldwide Ban on Killer Robots Begins

Ivo Fysic December 22, 2021

As drone warfare expands and becomes more and more part of our everyday lives, the question of limitations on what are effectively killer robots is now becoming more pitched, with a recent move to introduce legislation to ban killer robots worldwide through the Inhumane Weapons Convention, or the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, CCW.

Killer Robots Aren’t Science Fiction. A Push to Ban Them is Growing.

From Yahoo News

Excerpt:

This year, for the first time, a majority of the 125 nations that belong to an agreement called the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, or CCW, said they wanted curbs on killer robots. But they were opposed by members that are developing these weapons, most notably the United States and Russia.

The group’s conference concluded Friday with only a vague statement about considering possible measures acceptable to all. The Campaign to Stop Killer Robots, a disarmament group, said the outcome fell “drastically short.”

What is the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons?

The CCW, sometimes known as the Inhumane Weapons Convention, it is a framework of rules that ban or restrict weapons considered to cause unnecessary, unjustifiable and indiscriminate suffering, such as incendiary explosives, blinding lasers and booby traps that don’t distinguish between fighters and civilians. The convention has no provisions for killer robots.

Obamacare Spikes as Coronavirus Cancels Workplace Healthcare

As many Americans have recently lost healthcare coverage through work after being fired for not being vaccinated, they’re turning to Obamacare to cover the loss, driving the program to record high membership numbers.

Excerpt:

A record number of Americans have signed up for health plans through the Affordable Care Act’s marketplaces for 2022, after Congress lowered the cost of Obamacare insurance and the pandemic rocked many Americans’ employer-provided coverage.

The Department of Health and Human Services said on Wednesday that 13.6 million people had enrolled in coverage that will begin on Jan. 1, more than in any previous year of the program. Enrollment remains open until Jan. 15 for those who want coverage that would begin in February.

“What a great day it is to really see how the programs are working as they are intended,” Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which manages the marketplaces, told reporters on a conference call.

The Biden administration has invested heavily in promoting the availability of insurance subsidies under the Affordable Care Act, and expanded the network of professionals available to help people enroll. But Ms….

Excerpt:

So on this blog, I’ve tried to cover the origins of the fake Steele dossier that was used by the FBI to obtain a FISA warrant spy on the Trump campaign. I’ve talked about the role of the Democrat-supporting law firm Perkins Coie, and the Democrat-backed opposition research firm Fusion GPS. But now we have information about George Soros’ role in the scandal.

Here’s the latest from The Federalist:

A left-wing group backed by billionaire Democratic mega-donor George Soros that falsely claims to fight disinformation paid nearly seven figures to individuals behind the discredited Steele dossier, a Clinton campaign-funded disinformation document, new documents show.

Public IRS tax filings reveal the group paid a total of $926,000 to firms connected to former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele, the author of the dossier, and Fusion GPS, the Democrat-backed consulting firm that sponsored the opposition research.

Russian pipeline faces big hurdles amid Ukraine tensions

Excerpt:

FRANKFURT, Germany — The pipeline is built and being filled with natural gas. But Russia’s Nord Stream 2 faces a rocky road before any gas flows to Germany, with its new leaders adopting a more skeptical tone toward the project and tensions ratcheting up over Russia’s troop buildup at the Ukrainian border.

The pipeline opposed by Ukraine, Poland and the U.S. awaits approval from Germany and the European Union to bypass other countries and start bringing natural gas directly to Europe. The continent is struggling with a shortage that has sent prices surging, fueling inflation and raising fears about what would come next if gas supplies become critically low.

The U.S. has stressed targeting Nord Stream 2 as a way to counter any new Russian military move against Ukraine, and the project already faces legal and bureaucratic hurdles. As European and U.S. leaders confer on how to deal with Russia’s pressure on Ukraine, persistent political objections…

Vaccine Plus Infection Could Create Super Immunity from Covid-19

Ivo Fysic December 20, 2021

A study from Oregon Health and Science University is suggesting that breakthrough Covid-19 infections,, infections of vaccinated people, could create “super immunity.” The study was conducted during the Delta Variant spread of Covid. The study does not compare its findings to the natural immunity people get who are infected without the vaccine.

COVID-19 vaccination provides a foundation of protection that’s enhanced by breakthrough infection; ‘the key is to get vaccinated.’

Breakthrough infections greatly enhance immune response to variants of the virus that causes COVID-19, according to a newly published study from Oregon Health & Science University.

The laboratory results, published online ahead of print in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), reveals that a breakthrough infection generates a robust immune response against the delta variant. Authors say the findings suggest the immune response is likely to be highly effective against other variants as the SARS-CoV-2 virus continues to mutate.

Excerpt:

Donald Trump has sued New York state attorney general, Letitia James, seeking to halt her long-running investigation of his business practices, the New York Times reported on Monday.

The paper said Trump’s suit alleges that James, a Democrat, “is guided solely by political animus and a desire to harass, intimidate, and retaliate against a private citizen who she views as a political opponent”.

James recently said she would seek to question the former president under oath in January. Her investigation could only result in civil charges, not criminal.

Trump’s business affairs are also being investigated in New York by the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus Vance. That is a criminal investigation.
