I've been complaining about Ontario's vaccination plan, in which vulnerable seniors in long-term care homes did not receive vaccines until Phase 2 in late January. Govt just announced Moderna vaccines allocated to long-term care homes in December. 👍toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-to-rec…
2/ Premier Ford announced this as a "game changer". It is. Also I can see that Pfizer vaccine, which is set up presently only in well-equipped hospitals due to -70 deg, is much harder to take to vulnerable seniors than Moderna.
3/ this makes the pointless delay of Trudeau's federal government in approving Moderna vaccine even more frustrating.
4/ on a more optimistic note, I'm optimistic that even relatively small number of 53000 vaccines in long-term care homes can have immediate impact on feared ICU crush that motivated lockdown.

Ontario just announced punitive new lockdowns on fears of ICU overcrowding. It also announced that first vaccine tranche would have ~90,000, all of which would be allocated to health care workers.
2/ in Toronto, there are ~100,000 people (3.7%) between 80 and 90. They make up 25% of hospitalized. There are sections of city in which COVID is ten times more prevalent than others. Why not vaccinate most likely to be hospitalized in most vulnerable neighborhoods?
3/ I certainly believe that young health care workers deserve very high priority, but lockdown is blunt policy that damages young non-public sector workers. Quickest way of constraining potential ICU crisis is vaccinating 80-90s in high-risk areas, NOT 25-40 year old HC workers.

Microsoft has technical article on SolarWinds hack. microsoft.com/security/blog/… The few innocuous-looking lines in red box are the very lightweight link to malware code. Hard to see anything distinctively CosyBear or Russian in these lines. Maybe attribution is something else.
2/ Microsoft observed that the backdoor functionality is invoked by a seemingly innocuous operation Initialize() for OrionImprovementBusinessLayer.
3/ Microsoft said that the "business" end of the hack resides in various subroutines with Base64 encrypted file calls.

40/ it also looks like McCabe was separately leaking (false information) to WaPo about Flynn. He resigned almost immediately after this sabotage.
41/ during this resistance period, Strzok was breaking bad. As he became increasingly obsessed, one of his friends sagely observed "it looks like entire future credibility of the FBI is sitting on your shoulders". It did indeed. Unfortunately, Strzok was wrong about everything
42/ a dig here: on Feb 23, Brian Boetig, the FBI Legat from London who filed initial report on Downer's conversation with DCM Dibble about Papadopoulos leading to CH, checked in. Wonder what it was about.

23/ as Papadop interview approaches, Strzok and Boone (the two ADs) chat. Strzok expects Papadop to name Carter Page or Manafort as secret conduit to Russia. I don't view Strzok as malevolent, but as someone living in a totally paranoid fantasy, whose judgement was appalling.
24/ 😂🔥 this is rich. FBI was ("FYSA") listening to Papadop and his mother in the Papadopoulos home in real time. His mother told him not to go to FBI office. Strzok snickered: "That's what you get for not listening to mom...;)"
25/ texts presumably related to Papadop had already been obtained

A new drop of FBI texts hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…. Chuck Ross, one of the few reporters who consistently covers the Russiagate hoax, has a good article.
on Jul 28 afternoon, Strzok wants to talk to Lisa about "our open CI investigations relating to Trump's Russian connections". Weren't we repeatedly told that such investigations began with opening of Crossfire Hurricane? (Tho Carter Page and Manafort obviously earlier.)
on Sep 20, Nuland was having off-book dinner with Senator Corker, before whom she'd appeared on Senate Foreign Relations Committee. (Nuland had been repeated recipient of off-book Steele "reports" on Ukraine in previous 2 years.)

David Blake's recent book Loaded for Guccifer contains lengthy discussion of how NATO lobbied to expand definition of "war" to include ordinary hacking and surveillance - which are VERY hard to attribute.
2/ an important downside of expanded definition is that it creates much expanded incentive for false flag provocations. Blake argues that many, if not all, of the outrageously noisy and too-obvious cyber incidents since 2016 are false flags by parties who benefit from tension
3/ an important example of how a policy can create an incentive for false flags is Obama's famous "red line" on chemical attacks in Syria. Since Obama's policy was announced, one of major "business lines" of Al Qaeda and allied Syrian jihadis has been staged chemical incidents
