NYT: In China, ‘people have resumed normal lives’ – It has ‘become one of the safest places in the world’ – China ‘will be the only major economy to have grown this past year’ | Climate Depot climatedepot.com/2021/01/08/nyt…
NYT: China "has become one of the safest places in the world. The country reported fewer than 100,000 infections for all of 2020. The United States has been reporting more than that every day since early November."
NYT: "China resembles what 'normal' was like in the pre-pandemic world. Restaurants are packed. Hotels are full. Long lines form outside luxury brands stores. Instead of Zoom calls, people are meeting face to face to talk business or celebrate the new year."
NYT: "There’s no denying that China’s success in containing the outbreak burnished Beijing’s image, especially when compared with the failures of U.S."
NYT: "It has given currency to the so-called China model — the Communist Party’s promise to the Chinese public that it will deliver prosperity and stability in exchange for its unrelenting grip on political power."
NYT: China "will be the only major economy to have grown this past year...one outfit is forecasting that the Chinese economy will surpass that of the United States in 2028 — five years earlier than previously predicted."

Vaccine rollout hits snag as health workers balk at shots - apnews.com/article/corona…
Surprising numbers of health care workers who have seen firsthand the death and misery inflicted by COVID-19 are refusing shots.
“I don’t think anyone wants to be a guinea pig,” said Dr. Stephen Noble, a 42-year-old cardiothoracic surgeon in Portland, Oregon, who is postponing getting vaccinated. “At the end of the day, as a man of science, I just want to see what the data show. And give me the full data.”

Analysis: TV providers should not escape scrutiny for distributing disinformation - CNN - cnn.com/2021/01/08/med…
Moriarty was referring to the fact that Comcast's cable brand, Xfinity, provides a platform to right-wing cable networks that have for weeks been disseminating disinformation about the November election results to audiences of millions.
But what about TV companies that provide platforms to networks such as Newsmax, One America News -- and, yes, Fox News?

Bill Gates private jet hypocrisy: Seeks to buy ‘world’s largest private jet operator’ – One month before he releases book preaching about climate change & he pushes continued lockdowns | Climate Depot climatedepot.com/2021/01/09/bil…
Gates will continue to fly (& own private jets & jet companies) but the rest of us--not so much:

Gates: More than 50% of business travel will disappear in post-COVID world - “My prediction would be that over 50% of business travel & over 30% of days in the office will go away."
Moving forward, Gates predicted that there will be a “very high threshold” for conducting business trips and there will always be a way to work from home.

False flag at the Capitol: it’s all about the effects and after-shocks « Jon Rappoport's Blog - blog.nomorefakenews.com/2021/01/08/fal…
Efforts to protest the COVID lockdowns will be equated, by the media and the government, with the Capitol assault. “It’s all the same thing, the same unhinged people, the crazed deplorables and the dangerous anti-vaxxers…”
New rounds of brutal COVID lockdowns will be justified on the basis that “there are violent groups in our country who don’t care about infecting other people with the virus. You know who they are. Many of them wear MAGA hats. There is only one way to defeat this pandemic.

The ‘Great Hysteria’ of COVID & lockdowns weakened the USA: ‘China’s war on the West is real…China will trample the West even further’ climatedepot.com/2021/01/07/the…
Sanjeev Sabhlok: The science has also always been clear. Even if this virus had been as bad as Spanish flu, lockdowns would not be a remedy. Innumerable scientific studies both before and in 2020 confirm that lockdowns don’t work and, instead, cause net harm.
So how did the world get it so wrong? The answer, hiding in plain sight, is: China. While the Great Hysteria was going on, Donald Trump went from an unlosable situation to fighting for his career.

Many of my colleagues on the right are horrified by the Capitol under siege, but I am failing to muster outrage at the protesters. This is way beyond Trump. It's about lockdowns and tyrannical government.

Striking fear in politicians is not a bad thing.
Thomas Jefferson: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
