Capitol Police Chief Claims “Militia Groups Want to Blow Up the Capitol” During Biden State of the Union

Head of Capitol Police says domestic terrorists want to “kill as many members as possible.”

by Kelen McBreen
Info Wars

Speaking to the House Appropriations Committee on Thursday, Acting Capitol Police Chief Yogananda Pittman said Chairman Biden’s yet-to-be-announced State of the Union address is the target of domestic terrorists.

According to Chief Pittman, “Members of the militia groups that were present on Jan. 6 have stated their desires that they want to blow up the Capitol and kill as many members as possible with a direct nexus to the State of the Union.”

Of course, she provided no evidence showing this claim to be true.

The Capitol Police leader used the alleged threat as a precedent for the current large-scale fence erected around the complex and the security buildup in DC.

“So based on that information,” she explained, “we think that it’s prudent that Capitol Police maintain its enhanced and robust security posture until we address those vulnerabilities.”

The Fake Covid “Pandemic” is the Excuse for Concentration Camps

by Dr. Paul Craig Roberts
PaulCraigRoberts.org

Since the year 2000, we have witnessed two epochal events, 9/11 and COVID-19. Both produced massive changes in civil liberty and government power, reducing the former and enhancing the latter.

The official narrative of 9/11 is unbelievable as it is contrary to all known science. The official narrative of Covid relies on running the PCR test at high cycles known to produce false positives in order to produce headlines of a scary high rate of infection. Covid deaths are magnified by ignoring co-morbidities and by counting even motorcycle deaths as Covid deaths. In the US, financial incentives were created for hospitals to report all deaths as Covid deaths. The flu season has been conflated with Covid and has disappeared. It is possible that more Covid patients were killed by ventilators than by Covid and by immune systems unsupported by adequate intake of vitamins C and D and zinc. No Covid deaths were necessary as two proven and safe treatments—HCQ and Ivermectin—were available but banned by public authorities. Deaths were wanted in order to build fear in order for pharmaceutical companies to make billions of dollars on vaccine sales and in order for governments to impose more controls over citizens and more inhibitions of civil liberty.

Stocks and Precious Metals Charts – Risk Off, Down Bubble

from Jesse’s Café Américain

[…] The bubble momentum trade in financial assets was getting crowded and overdone.

The mavens of the markets tried to shake off the hangers-on yesterday, but Jay Powell nixed their plans with his happy talk.

So today the captains of Wall Street called for a down bubble, emergency deep.

Time to take out the garbage. Scrape the hull.

The challenge the financiers presented to the Fed showed up in the yields of the longer dated 5+ Treasuries and curve.

Despite the selling, the Dollar tread water very nicely just above 90.

VIX went north.

A grand wash day.

This Will Send the Price of Gold Substantially Higher

from King World News

With the price of gold closing at the lowest level in about 8 months, this will send the price of gold substantially higher.

This Is Where Things Stand

February 25 (King World News) – Egon von Greyerz out of Switzerland: “The Fed can never voluntarily stop printing money as this would lead to instant collapse of stock markets, bond markets and the financial system. Gold backing of the currencies kept the central banks on a short leash, but since 1971 there has been a free for all monetary bonanza in the US and most of the world.”

Who Owns Your Face?

by Andrew P. Napolitano
LewRockwell.com

After listening to Dr. Anthony Fauci suggest last weekend that we should expect to be wearing two masks on our faces everywhere we go until the end of 2022, I began thinking again about first principles.

Fauci is entitled to express his opinions. Yet, because he is the president’s chief adviser on COVID-related medical matters, I cringed when I heard what he said. Was this a trial balloon or did he mean it literally? Are these suggestions or will they become commands with the purported force of law?

Because the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, it governs the government wherever it goes and whatever it does. The original purpose of the Constitution was twofold: to establish the federal government and to limit its regulatory and taxing powers to the 17 discrete powers articulated in Article I.

Biden a Dark Money Puppet

Nominations of Xavier Becerra and Vanita Gupta show how dark money has infiltrated Biden administration

by Adam Laxalt
Washington Times

Liberal dark money groups spent a record-breaking $145 million to get Joe Biden elected, and now they are cashing in. These groups are pushing President Biden to nominate dark money appointees and pass their extreme left-wing policies.

From top to bottom, Mr. Biden’s staff is filled with people affiliated with dark money. His chief of staff, Ron Klain, was a board member of the dark money group CAP Action Fund before joining the Biden administration.

Similarly, Gina McCarthy, the White House National Climate Adviser, led the Natural Resources Defense Council, a climate action dark money group that has received millions from the Sixteen Thirty Fund and the New Venture Fund.

To Recap: You Were Conned

by Karl Denninger
Market-Ticker.org

Remember what we were told: Vaccines were the way forward, back to normality.

That was a lie — just the latest (and almost-certainly not the last) in a long string of lies.

Let me start by saying this: it is weird. I have about a month under my belt since the second vaccine and still experience a dizzying mix of guilt and delight. Note to fellow vaccinees about this topic: dealing with this juggling act interests absolutely no one who has not been vaccinated (but everyone who has).

Guilt and delight?

Delight at…. what, exactly?

I saw this the other evening at the pub — some older folks who were in delight they were getting vaccinated. Sitting in a bar, where they’ve sat for months, drinking with friends which of course means within six feet of distance without a magic mask, since it’s damn hard to quaff a beer with a diaper on one’s face.

In the Middle of a Pandemic, San Francisco NIMBYs Sue To Stop a New Hospital From Being Built

The lawsuit argues a 2,100-page environmental impact report for a major expansion of the University of California, San Francisco’s Parnassus campus wasn’t thorough enough.

by Christian Britschgi
Reason.com

Neighborhood activists in San Francisco are suing to stop the University of California, San Francisco’s (UCSF) plans for an ambitious expansion of the medical center at its Parnassus Heights campus, which would include a new hospital and housing for students and staff.

These neighborhood groups argue in three separate lawsuits that the University California Board of Regents, the governing body of the UC system, failed to properly consider the serious impacts UCSF’s planned expansion would have on housing demand, traffic, air quality, and aesthetics in the surrounding area when it approved those plans last month.

Why Do They Want Us All Vaccinated?

by Terry Paulding
American Thinker

Our vaccine is experimental, and we, the people, are being herded into a mass drug trial such as the FDA has never before attempted.

That is the unembellished truth. Nobody in authority wants to mention this truth. Instead, there’s a long trail of rah-rah news propaganda, about fabulous new stadium-parking-lot vaccine sites (because, what else would a parking lot at a stadium be used for these days?), numbers of doses available, and reports about the elderly in nursing homes doing a dance of joy at getting their jabs and maybe being let out of jail to see family and people other than one another. These generally come with an interview of somebody in a nursing facility who calls the rest of us, those who don’t want to be guinea pigs, “fools” and tells us to just “get on with it” so we can finally hug mom.

Silver is Close to Something Big

by Hubert Moolman
Silver Seek

There is a sense that we are close to a significant move in silver. The current season since August 2020 till now, is shaping up in a similar manner to the season of August 2019 to February/March 2020.

Silver as well as the stock market peaked in February 2020, and crashed significantly into March.

Below, is a chart of silver (top) and the Dow (bottom):

[…] On the silver chart, I have indicated how the current season is shaping up like the previous season by marking the similar patterns from point 1 to 5.

On both patterns, point 4 came in right at the beginning of the year (2020 and 2021respectively). If the two patterns on the silver chart continue in a similar manner, then we could see silver crash much lower like it did in March 2020.

School Board Member Compares Reopening Schools to ‘Slavery’

by Penka Arsova
LaCorte News

A board member of a San Diego public school district injected the notions of white supremacy and slavery while arguing against re-opening schools in the area.

The story: Chardá Bell-Fontenot, the Vice President of La Mesa-Spring Valley Schools, made the comments during a virtual meeting with other board members. During the meeting, which took place on Feb. 23, members on the board were trying to set a date for a return to in-person learning.

Bell-Fontenot pushed back against the effort to go back to schools and spoke to her colleagues in a condescending manner.

What she said: When one board member pointed to a poll that around 70-80% of parents wanted their children to return to school for in-person instructions, Bell-Fontenot questioned its veracity.

Why It’s Good for San Francisco That Rents Dropped 29% to Multiyear Low, but They Haven’t Dropped Nearly Enough Yet.

by Wolf Richter
Wolf Street

The market is working on a solution to the “Housing Crisis” and “Exodus.”

San Francisco has long lamented its “Housing Crisis,” a phenomenon where housing – whether rented or owned – is so ludicrously expensive that middle-class workers, even if there are two in the household, can no longer afford to live in San Francisco, or have to spend so much of their income on housing that they’re effectively poor in every other aspect, and cannot spend money on other things.

So now the market is responding to this phenomenon: More people are leaving, fewer people are coming in, vacancies are surging, and rents are sagging, amid a massive churn by tenants who move to similar apartments for a lot less and get “three months free,” or who chase after the “free upgrade” to nicer apartments.

Lawless Coup on Wall Street Continues: GameStop Doubles in Price in One Day

by Pam Martens and Russ Martens
Wall Street on Parade

It’s not just the nation’s Capitol that saw a lawless attempted coup this year. There’s an ongoing lawless coup taking place on Wall Street among stock manipulators who seem to be sending the message to the Biden administration, “we dare you to catch us.”

We continue to write about GameStop because it stands at the intersection of everything that is corrupt and broken in U.S. markets: from payment-for-order flow, to high frequency trading, to front-running, to Dark Pools, to hedge funds masquerading as market makers and lack of an audit trail at the Securities and Exchange Commission to shed daylight on the whole corrupt mess.

Just six days after some of the major players in the wild trading action of GameStop were hauled before the House Financial Services Committee and put under oath, the stock more than doubled in price yesterday. GameStop opened at $44.70 and closed at $91.71, a one-day gain of 103.94 percent.

Let Cities Determine Their Own Energy Futures

by Nico Zviovich
The Daily Bell

Last summer, residents of Savannah, Georgia, took decisive action and adopted a community-wide goal to move the city to 100% clean and renewable energy by 2035. Savannah is one of five major cities in Georgia that have made pledges to reduce their carbon footprint in the coming years.

But, a bill floating in the state capitol may cause Savannah’s clean energy pledge to be short-lived.

Last month, Georgia state legislators introduced HB 150, legislation that would effectively prohibit city and county governments from setting their own clean energy goals. HB 150 passed through a subcommittee and will be presented to the Georgia House Committee on Energy, Utilities & Telecommunications later this month.
