Scattershots – 5sep21 (updated 13sep21)

Geoge Rebane

About a month ago in ‘The Criminality of Covid Care’ we reviewed a catalog of atrocious policies that our governments have imposed since C19 was first loosened on the nation early last year.  Specifically, the focus was on the denigration and proscription of the established anti-viral Ivermectin for both prophylaxis and therapy for the disease.  Evidence of IVM’s benefits continues to be made available, all to the tin ears of CDC and Team Fauci.  Here’s the latest information from a reader – ‘Ivermectin: a multifaceted drug of Nobel prize-honored distinction with indicated efficacy against a new global scourge, COVID-19’.  This article is published in the September 2021 issue of New Microbes and New Infections published by Elsevier. (more here)

And here is your Ivermectin Lucky Strike Extra.  'Ivermectin, a potential anticancer drug derived from an antiparasitic drug.'  I think we may have covered this before, but it is definitely worth repeating to illustrate the magnitude of the crime our TDS progressives have committed and continue in the avalanche lies appearing daily about IVM.

[10sep21 update] Bidenese by Bumblebrain - Alright, a little change of pace to examine in more detail what regularly comes out of our president's mouth when in front of a mic.  How many times have you watched him attempt to explain or expand something, and out comes mush.  Well, it's not mush, and here is a video by a stalwart researcher who has captured a sampling of Bidenese to include in your lexicon for the next time you hear the president speak.

[11sep21 update] Re Recall Newsom - California resident Curt Kruger writes in the 11sep21 WSJ that people who oppose the recall of our misdirected and incompetent governor also support the following initiatives to reduce the state’s standing as the country’s leading repository of the homeless.

• Eliminate laws against living in a tent on public property.
• Remove the social stigma associated with living on the street (terms like hobo, vagrant, etc.)
• Provide free food. During nasty weather, provide free shelter.
• Provide enough cash that people don’t have to hold down a job.
• Make psychiatric-care and drug-dependency programs optional.

Mr Kruger concludes, “It’s ironic that Gov. Newsom’s program to reduce homelessness includes the same policies most people would implement to increase it.”

[13sep21 update]  Corporatist Facebook is one of the country’s premier SOS liars.  A major piece – ‘Facebook Says Its Rules Apply to All. Company Documents Reveal a Secret Elite That’s Exempt’ - in the 13sep21 WSJ based on access to company confidential documents reveals, “A program known as XCheck has given millions of celebrities, politicians and other high-profile users special treatment, a privilege many abuse”.

In private, the company has built a system that has exempted high-profile users from some or all of its rules, according to company documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.  The program, known as “cross check” or “XCheck,” was initially intended as a quality-control measure for actions taken against high-profile accounts, including celebrities, politicians and journalists. Today, it shields millions of VIP users from the company’s normal enforcement process, the documents show. Some users are “whitelisted”—rendered immune from enforcement actions—while others are allowed to post rule-violating material pending Facebook employee reviews that often never come.

In front of congressional committees holding public hearings Mark Zuckerberg has confirmed multiple times that he is a sleazebag lying sack of (user fill-in, my preference is ‘shit’).  This is the kind of oligopolistic behaviors that make the case for breaking up Facebook or turning companies like this into regulated public utilities.

Hardly......the left desperately needs “misinformation”......what they want is to control it.

Prevent the opposition from establishing any counter narrative.

fish - As I said - what a sick joke.
Of course they need misinformation. Along with the absence of information and the ignorant sheep that graze on that sort of pasture.
Hence the constant dumbing down of public education and the elimination of competency tests to graduate.

TWO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ROLLING STONE STORY

Steve wrote about the latest Rolling Stone fiasco here. Basically, Rolling Stone picked up a local TV news story out of Oklahoma to the effect that large numbers of Oklahomans were overdosing on Ivermectin, to the point where hospitals were turning away gunshot victims and there were no ambulances to be had. Other leftists like Rachel Maddow picked up the story and ran with it, even though it was laughable on its face. Kyle Smith also has a good review of the story, and Iowahawk and others have fun at Rolling Stone’s expense at Twitchy. I think this is pretty funny:

HEY Jose!,, Is this Emery's ongoing treatment?
"A Butler County judge ignored scientific evidence and proven patient care when he ordered West Chester Hospital to treat a seriously ill COVID-19 patient with the livestock deworming drug ivermectin. This drug, which has been proven safe and effective for treating head lice and other parasitic infections in humans, has come under intense scrutiny as it is being promoted among some as the latest COVID-19 miracle treatment. It isn't. Ivermectin is scientifically unproven as a treatment or as a preventative measure for COVID-19."

If it came from Rawstory, it must be true,, and works!

Hey Emery.. Have any good hallucinations on that stuff?
You get to take a wild trip, and never leave home.

Then again,, they might be feeding it to Biden... YA That's it!! That explains Biden's mind farts in public. "where am I?",, "which way am I supposed to go?" "salute the Marines.." "I'm not supposed to answer your questions"

Who cares if the Invermecin story is phony. Nobody cares. The real story here is that Republicans and Trump puppets add poisonous horse dewormer to their toxic fish tank cleaner cocktail. People could die. Their is blood on your neo-Nazi hands. The lockdown is all your fault. Is Trump’s fault. That’s the real story. Can’t you see what’s going on? Trump wants to poison Americans. It’s a Jim Jones cult! The Republicans’ plan is for you to die.

Joe On Peyote 8:07 - "Who cares if the Invermecin story is phony. Nobody cares. The real story here is that Republicans and Trump puppets add poisonous horse dewormer to their toxic fish tank cleaner cocktail."
Yeah, who cares that the left was once again caught lying with a stupid story that only a moron (Joe P was one of them) could believe and pass around.
Ivermectin is not poisonous and the fish tank cleaner was solely the crackpot idea of one person and had nothing to do with the Rs or Trump.
Meanwhile the Joe Biden Death Toll continues to roll.

[Walt]

Jose', we have it on good authority just what you did with that ultraviolet light. You just HAD to test out Trump's suggestion.
Are you walking any better yet?

[Jose Peyote]

Waľt you idiot. Ultra violent did not work.
I can barely get up off the toilet since drinking Trump's Clorex. Went down the wrong pipe and now my breath smells like a laundry mat. My upchucks smell like squash soaked in bleach. I have been flushing every three minutes for two days straight. Running out of toilet paper and afraid to leave my house and get too far from the tiolet. What concerns me is my water bill will be too expensive to affort. Excuse me, nature calls.

Its all Trump's fault.

[Walt]

I was sure the black light would kill the problem. But that's for doing the dirty work. You save a lab rat's life.

Let me guess. You didn't dilute the Clorox? You know there are Clorox chewables?

You will flush out soon enough. The end is near... News at 11..

‘The Highly Effective Covid Treatment Joe Biden Won’t Tell You About ‘

“Last week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is without question leading the way to promote both vaccine and early care like antibody treatment, suggested some public health officials bypassed promotion of the treatment in an effort to drive behavior. Basically, officials were scared if Americans knew about the highly effective treatment, they might forgo a vaccine. DeSantis emphasized the importance of vaccination but criticized those, in his opinion, neglecting to inform the public about all their options and care.

There’s also the “Trump Factor” at play, here.

Americans probably first heard of antibody treatment from former President Donald Trump, who famously had the antibody infusion when he was infected with COVID and made a quick turnaround. At the time, the treatment was not yet available to the public, and the media bashed Trump for calling the treatment a “cure.”

Since then, the media seem timid to discuss the treatment.”

‘Oh Those Embarrassing Media COVID Corrections’
A story about Joe Rogan, Ivermectin, and completely fake news.

........“Similarly, the Associated Press had to issue a massive correction to an article falsely claiming “that 70% of recent calls to the Mississippi Poison Control Center were from people who had ingested ivermectin to try to treat COVID-19.” The real number? 2%.

Rolling Stone originally asserted that people are making “false claims” that Ivermectin “could fight COVID-19.” Never mind that researchers are still studying that. Shouldn’t we wait for their findings before some keyboard jockey at a culture magazine settles the science?

We’d say these yahoos ought to know better, but the people who really ought to know better are the ones who take these “journalists” seriously. Rolling Stone is infamous for its completely botched reporting on rape allegations at the University of Virginia. And Maddow had egg on her face for her supposed blockbuster on Donald Trump’s tax returns. That doesn’t scratch the surface of fake news over the last five years.

Anyone reporting or analyzing the news is going to make a mistake at some point. The problem is that these aren’t just mistakes; they’re deliberate lies aimed at enforcing the narrative while smearing regular Americans as idiots.”.......

https://patriotpost.us/articles/82537-oh-those-embarrassing-media-covid-corrections-2021-09-07?

Todd was right. The AP has gone down the extremely biased and unprofessional Fakenews sewer. Reported 70% and the actual number is 2%????? That is not even in the same universe.

[Joe Peyote’s Acme Anvil]

Where is Walt? Walt, you idiot.

I spent the day in ER. A good dose of horse dewormer worked great for my worms. The drug cleaned out my intestines beautifully, better than the juice one takes before a colonoscopy. A fantastic colon scrub. I felt great for the first time since drinking extra strength Clorox with added solvents. Found the special Clorox in the deck washing section. Won’t do that again, ever. Trump is killing people.

I figured if one big dose of horse dewormer in the privacy of my studio could take care of those nasty parasites in my stools, what would ten big doses do? I found out. I felt like my bowels became detached from my plumbing. The ER doctors literally saved my live.

I hate Trump. It’s all his fault.

[Bill Tozer]

Well, the Leftists (media) went all goggly eyed when Joe Rogin came down with The Chinese Plague. They could not contain their euphoria. Then they were all disappointed and had their smiles wiped from their faces when Rogin recovered, and much to soon for their tastes. No accounting for taste, I reckon.

I have to agree its best they phoned it in -

The president met Saturday with members of the fire department that responded to the United 93 crash, which was brought down on Sept. 11 by passengers who rushed their hijackers.

During a brief interaction with the press, the president asserted the victims of the attacks would likely be confused and disappointed by the voters who don’t like him. Biden also complained there’s no use in trying to fight al Qaeda wherever it has a foothold, which is a hell of a thing to declare in Shanksville on Sept. 11.

“What I’m thinking about today is what these people who — and I’ve got a piece of — a small piece of one of the beams they have — they gave me last time — or not last time, but how many times ago — and the flag they gave me,” Biden told reporters Saturday in Shanksville, explaining how he plans to unify the country. “And I’m thinking of, you know, what — what — of the people who died, what would they be thinking? They think it makes sense for us to be in this kind of thing, where you ride down the street and someone has a sign saying ‘F so and so’? Or — it’s not who we are.”

A reporter also asked Biden a broad, no-pressure question.

“Mr. President, what is going through your mind today, sir?” the reporter asked.

Biden could have answered this in any number of ways. He could have responded with something straightforward and to the point. He could have responded with something poetic, something with some flourishes. He could’ve given something moving, something from the heart. After all, “empathy” is his supposed superpower. What Biden offered instead was a complete mishmash of free-form stream of consciousness, jumping from one topic to the next, giving us a glimpse into what a live address likely would’ve looked like.

“I’m thinking about my — for real, this is my fourth trip here. And I was thinking about a guy named Davis Sezna that I grew up with, who, like a lot of people, are probably having a tough day today," Biden responded. "He — I was sitting at home watching television in 2000 and — 2000, in September, and I was watching TV, and my kids were in the swimming pool just outside, and — and all of a sudden came on TV this guy sitting on a bank in the — on the Delaware and Chesapeake Canal."

He added, “And he — and they said he just lost his son that ran into a beam that was coming up in the D&C Canal that had been there from another, I guess, dock. And his — he lost his 15-year-old son, Teddy. And he’s on the phone, and all of a sudden, my phone rings, and he’s calling me. It turned out to be my buddy, Davis Sezna, because he knew I had lost — anyway.”

Buckle up. There are roughly 700 more words to his response:

And then, a year later, I got a call. His son was on the 106th floor, and he lost his son. And they called him “Deeg.” He was Davis Jr. And so, it’s a tough day for him and everybody who’s lost somebody. And, you know, I know you’ve heard me say it before, and I’ll probably get criticized for saying it again, but these memorials are really important, but they’re also incredibly difficult for the people who were affected by them — because it brings back the moment you got the phone call. It brings back that instant you got the news, no matter how many years go by. So I’ve been thinking about him. I’ve been thinking of all the people I was — when I was down at the rock, talking to a number of family members who lost somebody. You know, think about it — talk about genuine heroism. I’m not talking about any — I’m not talking about the news media now. But think of all of you, if you’re on that plane, knowing two terrorists are in the cockpit. How many would say, “I got a good idea: Let’s go up and rush that cabin”? Even though you knew that probably they were going to do something and you were going to lose anyway. But it’s one thing to say, “I know I should step up,” and another thing to do it. That’s genuine heroism. That’s not “on the margins.” That’s not “maybe you did a heroi-…” I mean, you know. And I just — I just think — I thought that President Bush made a really good speech today — genuinely good speech — about who we are. We’re not — the core of who we are is not divided. It’s just this notion of — I don’t know how to explain it. I think, Jeff, I talked to you a little about this. I think the real issue for those kids that — just had a picture taken with — couple of them had Trump hats from last year — I think, for them, it’s going to be: Are we going to, in the next 4, 5, 6, 10 years, demonstrate that democracies can work, or not? Because I had — just had a long — I’m not going to discuss with you now, but I had a long conversation with President Xi for over an hour and a half — not last night; the night before last. And I’ve had that one-on-one summit with Putin. And I’ve spoken with others. There’s a lot of autocrats who truly believe that democracies can’t function in the 21st century. Not a joke.

They think because the world is changing so rapidly and people are so divided, you can’t bring people together in a democracy to get a consensus, and the only ones that are going to be able to succeed are the autocrats. That’s why it’s so damn important we demonstrate — everybody says, “Biden, why do you keep insisting on trying to bring the country together?” That’s the thing that’s going to affect our wellbeing more than anything else: how the rest of the world responds to us — knowing that we actually can, in fact, lead by the example of our power again. And I think we can do it. We got to do it. And so it’s all tied. And meeting with these people — you know, I know you’re all tired of hearing me say, you know — a lot of good folks on Wall Street, but they didn’t build the country. Hardworking middle-class folks built this country, and the unions built the middle class. It’s about time we start showing them some real respect again. And that’s why I’m hopeful. I know a lot of you think I’m just always too optimistic, but I think we’re going to get major pieces of legislation through, both on a bipartisan basis, and I think we’re going to get something done consequentially — consequential on the whole issue of dealing with human infrastructure. And we do that — it’s more than just how it’s going to grow the economy in an exponential way near-term, but the rest of the world is going, “Whoa. How did he do that? I thought they didn’t talk to each other.” Anyway, you asked what I was thinking. That’s what I’ve been thinking about today.

Good Lord. I can see why the White House went with a pre-taped address.

This type of rambling, tortuous answer is something one would expect from former President Donald Trump. What’s disconcerting here is that Trump has always spoken in long-winded, meandering asides. It’s his style. Biden hasn’t. The president used to be sharp, polished even.
