Do we have the time, or is this the beginning of the end of life in America as we have known it? This is where you will find a range of Editorial postings and comments by a select group of writers, many of who have had long term relations with Kettle Moraine Publications – and EACH of whom provide us with THEIR Perspectives as this Nation ignores the warnings as we live in the end of days – for most Americans’ are Too Blind to See – and we once again convert back to one of our OLD and DEFINITIVE categories – POINT BLANK!

The Next Crisis Is Anyone’s Guess, But the Government Is Ready to Lockdown the Nation

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.” ~ H.L. Mencken

First came 9/11, which the government used to transform itself into a police state.

Then the COVID-19 pandemic hit, which the police state used to test out its lockdown powers.

In light of the government’s tendency to exploit crises (legitimate or manufactured) and capitalize on the nation’s heightened emotions, confusion and fear as a means of extending the reach of the police state, one has to wonder what so-called crisis it will declare next.

It’s a simple enough formula: first, you create fear, then you capitalize on it by seizing power.

Frankly, it doesn’t even matter what the nature of the next national emergency might be (terrorism, civil unrest, economic collapse, a health scare, or the environment) as long as it allows the government to lockdown the nation and justify all manner of tyranny in the so-called name of national security.

First Drugs Chosen for Medicare Negotiations Hit Close to Home for Cardiologists

Optimism must be balanced with conservative expectations given the unknown nature of the cost impact.

This week, the Biden-Harris administration announced the first 10 drugs that Medicare will be allowed to negotiate prices for beginning in 2026 – the list contains many medications that cardiologists commonly prescribe for their patients.

The drugs are part of the first wave of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which aims to reduce prescription drug costs for Medicare beneficiaries while cutting drug spending by the federal government. Already, the IRA has lowered the cost of insulin to $35 or less, and out-of-pocket spending by Medicare beneficiaries is set to be capped at $2,000 per year beginning in 2025. Continue reading

Tucker ~ How Deep Runs the Corruption?

For the last several years, my friends in public health and science have expressed astonishment and professional disorientation at the behavior and messaging of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The scientific journals are part of this.

They simply could not believe the brazen manipulation of science for political purposes. They could not believe that so many people within these agencies and journals went along with it for reasons of career protection. They have been appalled that science and public health have been deployed in this way.

They worry about the future with this level of corruption. And they have been quite passionate in decrying it, while paying a professional price for not going along. Continue reading

Let’s Call It Treason

People see but they do not understand. People hear but they do not comprehend. In the meantime, politicians both see and hear, but ignore. It is treason by omission

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ~ Edmund Burke, 1729-1797

If you do nothing in a difficult time, your strength is limited. ~ Proverbs 24

Millions of people around the world are beginning to figure out that there is a force, an evil cabal trying to take over the entire planet. This force has influenced leaders of every persuasion, in every country, and has been remarkably successful in putting a vast amount of governmental, religious, educational, medical, corporate and institutional leaders in a sort of trance…zombie like, to do their will.

31 Years After Ruby Ridge, the FBI Is Still Killing Americans with Impunity

A surveillance photo of the Weavers with guns on the property in Ruby Ridge, 1992. Photograph: PBS

It’s been 31 years since the beginning of the FBI’s murderous siege on the home of the Weaver family. The deadly incident prompted enough outrage to spur Congressional hearings, protests from across the political spectrum, several dramatized TV portrayals and a promise from the FBI and Department of Justice that they would revise the reckless tactics used at Ruby Ridge to avoid future tragedies (this was six months before the Waco massacre).

Fast forward to 2023, and the only difference in relation to federal law enforcement behavior is the disappearance of journalists and politicians willing to demand accountability from the FBI. Continue reading

Documents Show COVID Vaccines Are Being Used For Genocide

The ruling class and Pfizer have leaked documents showing that their COVID-19 vaccines are being used as a tool for depopulation and genocide. If a vaccine were to be developed and distributed that could cause heart and immune system dysfunction, it could potentially lead to depopulation due to increased mortality and decreased fertility.

Is there such a “vaccine on the market?” Perhaps… Continue reading

K-12 Education Satisfaction in U.S. Ties Record Low

Americans’ satisfaction with the quality of K-12 education in the U.S. has fallen six percentage points in the past year to match the record-low 36% reading on this measure, which Gallup has tracked for 24 years. In contrast, parents of K-12 students remain largely satisfied with the quality of the education their oldest child is receiving, as 76% say they are “completely” or “somewhat” satisfied, significantly higher than the 67% low on that measure from 2013.

Hornberger: The Omnipotent Power to Assassinate

In an editorial, The New York Times called for an investigation into the attack on Russian dissident Aleksei Navalny, who was recently transported to Germany in a coma after apparently being poisoned.

No one knows who did the poisoning but Times has strong suspicions:

A hit on so prominent a figure, with the inevitable eruption of global and domestic fury, would presumably require sanction from the highest echelons of power…. Mr. Putin has certainly shown no qualms about striking at foes at home and abroad. But it is equally possible that some other shadowy figure in the Russian kleptocracy decided to silence him. Ramzan Kadyrov, the strongman of the Chechen Republic within Russia, for one, is believed to be responsible for several assassinations, most likely without approval from the Kremlin…. Given the murky politics of the Kremlin, it may indeed be that Mr. Putin and his lieutenants did not order the hit on Mr. Navalny, who stands to become a bigger problem as a martyr than he was as a gadfly. But, as the Russian expression goes, “You cooked the kasha, you eat it.”

Unfortunately, however, the Times fails to address a major issue involved here: The power of a national-security state to engage in assassination at all. Continue reading

Benson: Socialism Is Compulsion

Socialism, in many varied forms, is presented to us as the panacea for all the world’s problems. Actually, it is the solution for none of them and a major contributor to most of them, but the socialists hope you never figure that out. If you did, you might be tempted to repudiate socialism, which they want you to embrace.

A major component of socialism in this country is the public school system. Those who have read Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto will recall that #10 of the list of planks Marx listed as part of the agenda for taking over a country was Free Education for all children in public (government) schools. Now admittedly, the content of the Manifesto was not original with Marx. He was hired to write the Manifesto for the League of the Just (Illuminati) so you can probably figure the ten points Marx listed in the Manifesto were Illuminist goals. Continue reading

DeWeese: The Continued Insanity

It’s getting crazy out there – and I am doing all I can to stop it!

More and more of the policy proposals put out by the Green activists reveal their movement is actually about forcing radical changes to our lifestyles and not about climate science or the environment.

It’s like a religion where infidels have to conform to their rites and rituals and heretics must be silenced.

Each day they are pushing harder and faster to implement it all. They are moving to eliminate cheap, reliable energy and gain control over our food supply, ability to travel, housing choices, available jobs, and our personal life-style choices. Continue reading

Dwyer: For the Democrat Party, Winning Is the ONLY Thing That Matters

Burn Baby – BURN!

August 24, 2023, was a sad day for all Americans who love their country and cherish their individual rights and liberties guaranteed by the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. For the first time in America’s history, a president has been arrested, fingerprinted, and had a mug mug shot taken in a county jail. All this was done to him because he dared to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election that he believed was stolen from him, and with assistance of some of his staffers was seeking lawful remedies for this perceived or real theft.

Here is some wider perspective. Continue reading

Taxpayer cash to be used to bankroll MORE Covid vaccines
Biden Administration will use $1.4BILLION to develop new virus drugs and shots

Officials said the funding – to be awarded in grants – will be used to develop ‘a new generation of tools and technologies to protect against COVID-19 for years to come’.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) – the branch of government tasked with bankrolling health initiatives – announced the move Tuesday as part of its ‘Project NextGen.’

This initiative adds to the $30 billion the government has already spent on Covid vaccines and $4.6trillion in overall Covid relief… (Continue to full article)

Mask mandates reemerge amid upturn in COVID-19 cases
The recent upturn in COVID-19 cases in some regions has spurred a handful of entities around the country to reinstate mask mandates, reigniting the debate over what place masking requirements have in an era of living with the coronavirus.

Earlier this week, Hollywood movie studio Lionsgate asked its employees to wear masks on certain floors of its facilities in Santa Monica, Calif., in response to a few staff members testing positive for COVID-19.

Kaiser Permanente began to require staff, patients and visitors to wear masks at its facility in Santa Rosa, Calif., this week in response to a spike in cases. Upstate Medical University in New York announced a similar decision last week for two of its hospitals… (Continue to full article)

 

Lockdowns and face masks ‘unequivocally’ cut spread of Covid – according to ONE report
Measures taken during the Covid pandemic such as social distancing and wearing face masks “unequivocally” reduced the spread of infections, a report has found.

Experts looked at the effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) – not drugs or vaccines – when applied in packages that combine a number of measures that complement one another.

The report, called Covid-19: examining the effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical interventions, reviewed the evidence gathered during the pandemic for six groups of NPIs and their effectiveness in reducing transmission.

These included masks and face coverings, social distancing and lockdowns, test, trace and isolate, travel restrictions and controls across international borders, environmental controls, and communications.

Frankly – I am sick of this SHIT… (Continue to full article)

Schools Already Closing Due to COVID — Just Weeks After Starting
The BS begins. Go to school or stay home with your children’s cold. Jesus, they aren’t going to die from the flu or cold. So ridiculous. America will have the most uneducated kids. No chance to ever catch up. Parents should consider homeschooling.

Just two weeks into the start of their school year, officials in Kentucky have called off school for the rest of the week “due to student and staff illness.”

The district of Lee County announced on Tuesday, August 22 that in-person classes, extra-curricular practices and games in the district had been canceled for the remainder of the week.

Public Health Director for the Kentucky River District, Scott Lockard, told news outlets local to the area that there has been an increase in COVID-19 cases throughout the district.

But COVID was not the singular driving factor in the district’s decision to temporarily close their doors… (Continue to full article)

Covid Vaccines Are “Disproportionately” Harmful and Up to 98% of Injuries Are Being Missed

Covid vaccines have a “disproportionate” injury rate, with injuries including “strokes, blood clots, heart attacks, amputations and neurological conditions”, a senior Conservative MP has said.

Speaking to the Pandemic Response and Recovery All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG), former Government Minister and APPG Co-Chair Esther McVey said: “A reporting system that misses as many as 98 out of 100 adverse reactions, inevitably misses safety signals.” Continue reading

The New COVID-19 Vaccines for Fall 2023: What You Need to Know

The global battle against the COVID-19 pandemic continues, and as we approach the fall of 2023, there are new developments in the vaccine front. With the emergence of new strains and the need for updated vaccines, it’s crucial to stay informed. Here’s a comprehensive look at the new COVID-19 vaccines coming out in the fall of 2023.

As Maui Burns, Biden Demands Another $24 Billion… For Ukraine!

I am not a big fan of Federal Government disaster relief. Too much of the time the money never gets to those who need it most, and too often Washington’s armies of disaster “experts” are more interested in pushing people around than helping them.

Nevertheless, it’s hard to look at recent footage of the devastation in Maui and then hear President Biden tell Congress that he needs another $24 billion for Ukraine. How can this Administration continue to justify tens of billions of dollars for this losing war that is not in our interest while the rest of the United States disintegrates?

Biden’s new $24 billion request comes on top of well over $120 billion already spent to fight the US proxy war on Russia in Ukraine. Heritage Foundation budget expert Richard Stern has done the math and determined that Biden’s spending on the Ukraine war thus far will cost each and every American household $900. How many Americans would rather have those $900 dollars back in their pocket rather than in the pockets of Lockheed-Martin, Raytheon, and Ukraine’s oligarchs? Continue reading

Loudon: Farewell…

For almost five years now I have been writing a weekly and then a Biweekly Preventing Cancer and Nutrition BULLETIN. Recently I had to admit my wife into the Rest home and find it almost too hard to continue writing my BULLETIN. I have enjoyed the wonderful three hundred and fifty friends and family throughout the world that I have had the privilege of knowing and receiving emails over these years. Thank you for your overwhelming response.

Since my wife is in the rest home, I have only one more book to finish. I do not have the time to do all of the wonderful things that I have done in the past and want to thank you for being a very active, wonderful, and participating part of my life.

The Suicide of the United States of America

In THIS last BULLETIN, I am sorry that I am leaving you a nation in turmoil. We have slowly sunk into the mud of a failing government, failing economy, and very weak military establishment, while corruption is weaving its way in and out of our government. China is just outside the gate, waiting for the gate to be open, so their mighty military can come marching in. Continue reading

Snyder: Is America Doomed?

Is time running out for America? Throughout human history, great civilizations have risen and fell, and many believe that the U.S. will be no exception. At this point, we have already drifted so far from our core values that our founders would not even be able to recognize the Republic that they once established if they were alive today. Of course most Americans realize that something has gone horribly wrong, but most of them also believe that sending the right people to Washington is the answer. But is that really the solution to what ails us? Continue reading

FBI Finds 200 Sex Trafficking Victims, Including 59 Missing Kids

This is a great victory even if it only saved a few of the thousands of trafficked people. Finding them and all those missing children is a blessing. I will say prayers for the victims and for the law officers that have to investigate this crime. Please Please start showing us the criminals faces. This is a federal/local law mission why not make sure these people are on a website we can access and all over the news? Why let them be anonymous? They shouldn’t have that right when they have taken other ( and lets face it women and children’s) rights from them and forced them into a horroible life. ~ PaisleySzuSzu
