The importance of being modest
by Claudio Grass, Claudio Grass:
It can be argued that the world has reach the sorry state it’s in today largely because academics, politicians and “distinguished experts” or “recognized authorities” did not have the humility to admit their own mistakes, or to at least recognize the limits of their knowledge. Of course, this is far from a new affliction in our societies and political systems. Hubris was one among the most terrible sins that the ancient Greeks warned against and there have been too many narcissists in positions of power to count, since the emergence of the first organized society. People who believe they know best, not just for themselves, but everyone else too, are naturally attracted to roles that would allow them to impose their will, their morality and their values on their neighbor.
No Amnesty for Lockdowners
by Jeffrey A. Tucker, Ron Paul Institute:
Now that we can talk to our friends and neighbors about it, the reality is sinking in. What our public-health experts and politicians did to this country was egregious. Inspired by the totalitarian lockdowns in Wuhan, China, and urged to replicate that policy by the World Health Organization in a report that Fauci’s National Institutes of Health approved, all constitutional rights were thrown out.
The churches were shut. The schools were closed, in some places for as long as two years, thus sacrificing the education of a whole generation. We faced restrictions on house parties. We could not visit the elderly in homes, not even sons and daughters who were paying the rent. There were even restrictions on travel between states: quarantine rules made it impractical.
If You Want Forgiveness, Emily, Here’s Your Program
by Karen Kwiatkowski, Lew Rockwell:
Being lectured to, condemned, ridiculed and hated by elitist bullies is bad enough on a single day or for one issue.
This behavior went on for over two and a half years, for nearly a thousand days, in a thousand ways. The economic, social, interpersonal, and educational costs associated with the idiotic mandates and unscientific policies will last a lifetime for many, and certainly shortened the lifetimes of many more.
3 More Major Wars That Could Suddenly Erupt In 2023
by Michael Snyder, End Of The American Dream:
Are we going to see more war in the months ahead? Both sides just continue to escalate the conflict in Ukraine, but it may soon have to share top billing as more wars suddenly erupt around the globe. Now that it looks like Benjamin Netanyahu will be returning to power in Israel, a major confrontation with Iran is seemingly closer than ever. Meanwhile, tensions between North Korea and South Korea have risen to the highest level in my entire lifetime. Most people don’t realize this, but the North Koreans are poised to launch an invasion at all times. All they need is an opportunity, and that may come when China invades Taiwan. Chinese President Xi Jinping recently reaffirmed his commitment to “reunification” with Taiwan, and officials in the western world are warning that this could come sooner rather than later. As I detail in my brand new book entitled “End Times”, we truly are living in a time of “wars and rumors of wars”.
Rumble Says “Non!’ To French Government Censors, Pulls Out Of Country
by Daniel McAdams, Activist Post:
Faced with French Government demands that free-speech video platform Rumble censor Russian news channels, the company’s CEO simply said “no.” No more Rumble for France. It’s a brave example of how to resist “cancel culture.”
Also today: US weapons to Ukraine continue to end up in the hands of criminals. And: anti-sanction parties surge in Germany and Austria – is the backlash gathering steam?

from Silver Doctors:
Wait for it…Wait for it…Waaaaaaaaaaaaait for it…
(by Half Dollar) The Fed has officially just concluded its most recent 2-day FOMC meeting.
Here’s the Fed’s statement, posted in its entirety (bold added for emphasis and commentary):
Recent indicators point to modest growth in spending and production. Job gains have been robust in recent months, and the unemployment rate has remained low. Inflation remains elevated, reflecting supply and demand imbalances related to the pandemic, higher food and energy prices, and broader price pressures.
Post-TEOTWAWKI Wound Care – Part 1
by M.V., Survival Blog:
Wound care is not the most glamorous of subjects but might come in handy down the road. We are not going to discuss the care we can provide in the here and now, which can be quite advanced as well as incredibly costly, but what we can do in a pinch if needed with stuff we have hanging around. This first part is the basic science of wound healing in a nutshell. It might glaze your eyes over but bear with it since it is always good to know what is actually happening in order to fix it.
A Surprising Threat to the US Power Grid Could Plunge the Country Into Darkness
from The Epoch Times:
Commentary
The importance of a strong power grid cannot be emphasized enough. Often, when a grid fails, the results are terrifying. Of all the major power grids in the world, the United States’ is one of the more vulnerable to attack.
State-sponsored hackers from the likes of Iran, Russia, and, unsurprisingly, China pose a real threat to the United States’ electrical transmission lines. However, there’s another (far less obvious) threat to the grid: electric vehicles (EVs).
No, There Will Not Be Any “Pandemic Amnesty”
by Mark E. Jeftovic, Bombthrower:
“Sooner or Later,
Everyone Sits Down to a Banquet of Consequences”
On the very first day of this year I wrote that the pandemic was over and that only the most brainwashed true believers would cling to the absurd narratives that enabled it. Since then, all of it has been exposed to be falsehoods, cluelessness and lies:
- Vaccines were never tested or proven to stop transmission.
- The fatality rate was around 0.005%
- Ivermectin worked
- Masks don’t
- Lockdowns did more damage than good
Brace Yourself: Trump Prepares to Announce 2024 Campaign After Midterms
from 21st Century Wire:
NEW YORK (AP) — As he played to a crowd of supporters in Robstown, Texas, former President Donald Trump drew cheers as he talked up his first two runs for the White House — and teased a third.
“In order to make our country successful, safe and glorious again, I will probably have to do it again,” he said last month.
That carefully placed “probably” may soon be gone from Trump’s stump speech. Aides to the former president are making quiet preparations for a 2024 presidential campaign that could be launched soon after next week’s midterm elections as Trump tries to capitalize on expected Republican wins to propel himself toward becoming the front-runner for his party’s nomination.
