According to reports, controversy arose after officials ruled that “fully vaccinated” city employees still need to wear a special “sticker” on their person showing that they got injected, should they “opt out” of wearing a face mask while at the office.
Beginning next week, City Manager Edward Starr is planning to enforce the new rule, which he says is designed to ensure that Montclair is in full compliance with Gov. Gavin Newsom’s edicts concerning a “safe” return to the workplace.
Newsom is demanding that all public employees submit evidence or sign a pledge indicating that they received a Trump Vaccine if they want to stop covering their breathing holes with cloth or Chinese plastic. Montclair is taking things a step further by marking the vaccinated who choose to show their faces at work.
I was in Poland to talk about my novels, and I’m Jewish, and it seemed wrong not to go to the site, to try to understand what is impossible to understand.
I remember two things most clearly. The first is how big the camp was. There’s essentially nothing left of it, of course. But the open field where the bunks and gas chambers and everything else had stood seemed enormous. But then it had to be. The Nazis killed over a million people there, nearly all Jews. They killed with precision and method. They needed machinery, and machinery needs space.
But the Poles around the site must have known. As the Jews came in but did not leave. As the ghettos and villages emptied out month by month. They must have known. The Germans too. Such a large place, so many people involved. Even if the Nazis had wanted to keep the secret – and they didn’t, not really, they didn’t care – sooner or later everyone in Germany and Poland must have known. Many knew without knowing, perhaps, without letting themselves know, but they all knew.
And I thought, looking at that vast field, Who thought this was a good idea?
My second thought was simpler. It came at the visitor center. Before the killing really got rolling, the Germans photographed new arrivals to the camp. Corridors of the visitor center were lined with those pictures. A couple in particular stood out. They weren’t of Jews. They were of French commandos whom the Nazis had captured in, I believe, late 1941. Yes, the Germans occasionally sent prisoners of war to Auschwitz – more proof they weren’t exactly trying to hide their Jew-killing.
These men weren’t downtrodden shtetl dwellers. They were tough. They looked at the camera without fear.
They died in months.
The great misunderstanding about Auschwitz is that surviving the selection didn’t mean the Nazis had chosen you to live. It meant they believed that instead of being gassed to death you were strong enough to be worked and starved to death. You had stored calories in your body that would be of use.
Auschwitz is called a concentration camp, but even that term is a euphemism. The only thing it concentrated was death.
But the Nazis didn’t want to tell the people they’d chosen to be worked to death the truth. So they put up a motto at the camp gates: arbeit macht frei. Work makes free.
Work didn’t make free. Nothing made free.
The motto was on my mind Friday morning when I saw this story.
A “path to freedom” that involves calling up the army. Of course. Makes total sense.
We have been told so many lies over the last 18 months, but none bigger than this:
The vaccines are our only hope to return to normal life. Vaccines will make us free.
The sentence is actually two lies in one. We can go back to normal whenever we choose, the coronavirus has a death rate far closer to the flu than smallpox or most other pathogens we have feared so much in the past.
Worse, it is now clear to ANYONE who watches that the coronavirus vaccines will not get us there. Not only will they not end the epidemic, their peak protection lasts a few weeks in the people who need them most. In the countries that vaccinated first, the Britain and Israel, deaths and hospitalizations have risen sharply this month, and most of the serious cases are in the vaccinated.
This doesn’t mean we have to panic. It means we have to acknowledge the truth – that we must live with the coronavirus rather than trying to remake society for it, much less force these flawed vaccines on everyone.
And so I tweeted “impfung macht frei” on Friday morning: Vaccines make free. The reference is not to the vaccines as agents of mass death – they are not. The reference is to the lie that vaccines would set you free, if only you would shut up and line up when it was “your turn.” (Remember that bit of focus-grouped nonsense?)
Now the people who have been mad at me for 18 months for pointing out their lies are mad about this too. To point out the lies is to disrespect the Holocaust, they say.
I doubt they believe a word they’re saying at this point. Their anger is purely performative. Holocaust comparisons far more explicit than that one have been thick on the ground the last four years, and no one has batted an eye:
They are yelling at me now for one reason: to distract you from the truth that they were as wrong about the vaccines as about everything else. Worse, to hide that fact, they are going to try to force you and your family to take them.
I never lived in Nazi Germany but it may have begun like what we are seeing these politicans in the West doing for the “health” and safty of their citizens! I am 76 and as far as I know the following is unprecedented in my lifetime of living in the West!This document is referred to below in the article BUTto make sure you read it I have put the link here https://www.lakecountyil.gov/DocumentCenter/View/39074/CHA-Doorknocking-Info-and-Scriptso please go to it even before reading the article! This is scary!!!
A government document that has recently surfaced offers horrifying details on how door-to-door “strike force” vaccine enforcement teams plan to operate. Labeled, “Community Health Ambassador Outreach Door Knocking Project,” a now-public document published by the government of Lake County, Illinois, instructs “ambassadors” to:
Violate “no soliciting” restrictions and illegally trespass onto private property.
Impersonate Health Dept. officials and attempt to intimidate building managers into consenting to allowing entry for the strike force teams.
Lie to the public and falsely claim covid vaccines are safe by withholding information about serious vaccine side effects, including hospitalizations and deaths.
Clear buildings in military fashion, going floor by floor, wing by wing, knocking on doors and intimidating residents of apartment buildings and residential units.
Recording the locations (address, room number) of anti-vaxxers in order to feed this information into a government database for further action — most likely forced quarantine removal (medical kidnapping).
White House spokesperson Jen Psaki announced last week that the Biden regime would activate door-to-door “strike forces” to coerce more people into getting vaccinated:
Following that announcement, Lake County, Illinois posted this document that provides instructions for how such teams should operate:
Lying to the public: False claims that the vaccine is safe and approved
While the VAERS system (VAERS.HHS.gov) now reports over 9,000 deaths in the US following covid vaccination, the Lake County government document instructs strike force teams to lie to the public:
Question: Is the COVID-19 vaccine safe? Answer: COVID-19 vaccines are tested in large clinical trials to make sure they meet safety standards… All routine safety standards must be met to ensure that any authorized or approved vaccine is as safe as possible.
Major anti-lockdown protests last Saturday saw thousands of frustrated residents flood the CBD, demanding freedom from government health orders. As there is no protest organiser to take to court, the NSW government has focused on pursuing anyone who breaks Covid health directions. Thousands of tip-offs have been sent in from members of the public.
The decision to use the ADF in a visible role is likely to cause controversy, given there is a great deal of difference between the Army assisting with floods and bushfires compared to policing Australian citizens.
Australians are not accustomed to heavy a police presence on their streets, let alone the use of the army outside their doors. The issue is particularly fragile given the large amount of civil resistance to health orders which have been creating financial havoc in NSW, costing the state $2 billion a week.
In a press conference earlier today, Fuller declined to rule out bringing in the ADF to patrol Sydney streets.
“Nothing is off the table between the conversation between the [NSW] premier and myself. We are not stretched at the moment, but clearly if there was an LGA expansion I would absolutely have the confidence in expanding the Australian Defence Force in NSW. To be clear, they are working with us now in hotel quarantine, they are working in our police operation centre – some forty-thousand shifts in hotel quarantine. If we had to use them, absolutely I would call out,” said Commissioner Mick Fuller.
David Elliott, Minister for Police and Emergency Services, also voiced his support for the announcement.
“As I have said previously, support from the Army will add another line of defence to the NSW Government’s crackdown on Covid-19 compliance. The Army’s unique skills and training have combined many times with those of our police officers to serve the people of NSW in times of crisis, such as the floods of severe bushfires we’ve experienced in recent years.”
Prohibiting political protests, even in a pandemic, remains a big question in Australia. Police failed to stop Black Lives Matter and Metoo protests at other points during the Covid outbreak, but have always shown a heavy-handed response when a protest is held in the name of liberty. The double standard continues to be a matter of contention between Australian citizens.
Early today, Prime Minister Scott Morrison caused his own controversy during a radio interview with 3AW when he laid the ground work for discrimination based upon vaccination status.
“We’d have to have more restrictions on people who are unvaccinated because they’re a danger to themselves and others. If you’re not vaccinated you present a greater health risk to yourself and to others than people who are vaccinated […] and public health decisions will have to be made on that basis,” said Scott Morrison.
“If people are unvaccinated they are more at risk and would have to have more restrictions on people who are unvaccinated because they are a danger to themselves and others.”
Morrison did not elaborate, but hinted that the state premiers were on board with announcing increased restrictions on citizens. He did, however, strongly oppose compulsory vaccination.
This comes despite advice from both the CDC and vaccine producers that Covid vaccines do not stop transmission, but rather lesson serious symptoms in vaccinated individuals. On July 27, the CDC updated its advice to recommend fully vaccinated adults and children continue wearing masks indoors.
It is not the first time a Liberal politician has found themselves in hot water when being interviewed by 3AW’s Neil Mitchell. Victorian Opposition Leader Michael O’Brien endorsed jail for those who refused to cooperate fully with contact tracers during the last Victorian outbreak.
The Prime Minister refused to guarantee that Australia would be open by the end of 2021.
“There is a clear learning here, and that is the approach that I would expect states would follow in the future,” said Scott Morrison.
The following is from a much longer article so I have just given a portion. However, the entire article is worth a read.
‘The science applied during the pandemic is so appalling that we cannot determine reliably how deadly the virus is. This has resulted in academic estimates which have grossly inflated the risk of dying which is not supported by the numbers.
As a matter of opinion not even the deaths encountered in countries such as the USA justify the destruction of lives. There will be those saying, had we not had such drastic actions we would have had far more deaths. That needs to be proven.
Unfortunately, most countries were not like Sweden who initially did not resort to drastic containment actions, but there are sufficient other examples that show that without draconian lockdowns we would not have had the deaths alleged we would have. South Korea is one example. Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming in the USA did not issue orders during March and April as did other US states and their excess deaths were no different than those of states that did.
There is a very strong possibility that we have killed people many if not most people through mismanagement of fear and panic and liberal use of ventilators.
No statement of fact is made but we must now be mature enough to face up to the possibility that we made terrible mistakes. We cannot go on living the way we are on the basis of data that has no credibility. The mess needs to be investigated using real world experts from outside a pure academic background.
The mistakes we made are –
We relied on academic advice and did not listen to proven real-world experts
We did not factor in the human factor that can cause death.
We were obsessed with the singular objective of saving lives. Living was ignored. What animal would choose captivity over freedom to extend its life expectancy.
We let fear stop rational thinking.
We believed everything we saw and read. We did not even consider that many photos were staged to dramatize.
We used propaganda to brainwash people which is moraly wrong. These people trust the authorities but were mislead with false information.
We used a shot gun approach without a targeted approach to various risk groups.
‘The CDC quietly announced last week that it was withdrawing its request to the FDA for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2.
Most of the public is probably unaware that similar to the current COVID-19 injections that are not yet approved by the FDA, but only given Emergency Use Authorization, so too the hundreds of diagnostic tests that supposedly detect COVID-19 are also NOT approved by the FDA, but only authorized via an EUA.
What is the reason the CDC is withdrawing its EUA request for the Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel?
In preparation for this change, CDC recommends clinical laboratories and testing sites that have been using the CDC 2019-nCoV RT-PCR assay select and begin their transition to another FDA-authorized COVID-19 test.
CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses. (Source.)
Caitlin McFall, writing for Fox News, is the only one in the corporate media I could find that even reported this, and the few reports I found in the Alternative media so far have been mostly inaccurate.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) urged labs this week to stock clinics with kits that can test for both the coronavirus and the flu as the “influenza season” draws near.
The CDC said Wednesday it will withdrawal its request for the “Emergency Use Authorization” of real-time diagnostic testing kits, which were used starting in February 2020 to detect signs of the coronavirus, by the end of the year.
“CDC is providing this advance notice for clinical laboratories to have adequate time to select and implement one of the many FDA-authorized alternatives,” the agency said.
The U.S. has reported more than 34.4 million cases of the coronavirus since the pandemic began in 2020 and more than 610,000 deaths.
But while cases of COVID-19 soared nationwide, hospitalizations and deaths caused by influenza dropped.
According to data released by the CDC earlier this month, influenza mortality rates were significantly lower throughout 2020 than previous years.
There were 646 deaths relating to the flu among adults reported in 2020, whereas in 2019 the CDC estimated that between 24,000 and 62,000 people died from influenza-related illnesses.
The CDC urged laboratories to “save both time and resources” by introducing kits that can determine and distinguish a positive test for the coronavirus and flu. (Source.)
Sydney, Australia has become Hitler’s Nazi Germany. Snitch on your neighbor and others if they are not following the draconian rules of the present supposedly “conservative” government. Yes, this is for the health and safty of the community or so they say! What next?
‘Strike Force Seasoned investigators are appealing for community assistance as part of their ongoing inquiries into the Sydney CBD protest yesterday.
Police have released an image of a man who may be able to assist with their inquiries into the assault of two police officers during the protest.
The man depicted is described as being of Caucasian appearance, with a brown beard. He is shown wearing a red and navy hooded jacket, sunglasses and a black hat.
Anyone with information that may assist investigators are urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via the online portal.
