Some have believed our “protests” resulting in burning cities are spontaneous, recent data shows them instead planned and coordinated. Two new ones are directed for September.
The message sent out by the Canadian far-left group Adbusters as “Tactical Briefing #1” calling all Americans to rise up and take the presidency from Trump, lays out two important preplanned pre-election events and dates. The first is happening now. “Stay in the streets in August [and] Build for UNITED NATIONWIDE MASS PROTEST Saturday, September 5 [and] DEMAND TRUMP PENCE OUT NOW!” The second, called the “White House Siege” follows, beginning on Constitution Day September 17, 2020 when “tens of thousands of our fellow citizens lay siege to the White House” for fifty days ending election day November 3 (The White House Siege, LibertyUnderFire.com).
We hope neither event happens. That we have made known their plans beforehand does not mean that they may not change them but such is unlikely as all Big Tech platforms Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter have advertised these events.
What should concern constitutionalist, other than the conspiratorial aspects of what has all the color of another coup to oust an elected president, is that the second event, the White House Siege, hence forth obliterates Constitution Day previously honored for decades by Americans. This was the day ending the Constitutional Convention, having created and voted affirmably for the most restrictive government constitution in world history,—the most important event and perhaps date in U.S. History.
The Adbusters flyers do not address this issue only that September 17 was chosen because it is the 10th anniversary of Occupy Wall Street at NYC’s Zuccotti Park which they planned and executed. This revered and celebrated day will be effectively replaced by the biggest event in U.S. History to remove a seated president and if not removed before November 3 to tamper with the outcome of the election.
Given the damage that they did with that event, we must take their new threat as an escalation of disruption and very serious. How a Canadian far-left group Adbusters, a foreign entity, can get away with two attempts to influence U.S. domestic policy, one under President Barack Obama, the other under Donald Trump, without some penalty to Canada was not explained then or now.
One might observe that the White House was already attacked last May, St John’s church set afire, and Lafayette Park then occupied. That is true the group that led that charge was Refuse Fascism, an organization said to be “an agitating tentacle of the Democratic Party” (Siege of the White House Starts On September 17, YouTube). Trump drove them out of the area and had a photo opt thereafter with him holding a raised Bible in front of the desecrated church.
Do you think these protests are spontaneous!?! Andy Zee of NOFASCISTUSA put that idea to rest when he said, “Think about what it is going to cost to conduct occupy type protests all across the county and especially in Washington DC.” Then added, “Let the people who are anguishing right now about a Trump / Pence administration. Let all those who are seething with anger and rage who are starting to organize and think about life under a fascist regime know that they are not alone and there actually is a plan, a way to stop this” (Ibid).
So who funds the cost of this revolution? The flyers do not say but the above cited YouTube video identifies the Alliance for Global Justice as “an organizer and fiscal sponsor for Refuse Fascism which is in turn funded by George Soros through the Tides Foundation,” which with Adbusters is conducting the White House Siege.
This should not surprise us as George Soros at a Davos, Switzerland, World Economic Forum in 2018 with other New World Order revolutionaries said, “Clearly I consider the Trump Administration a danger to the world that will disappear in 2020” (“Donald Trump and the Davos Connection,” From the Editors Desk, World Economic Forum, Annual Meeting January 21-24, 2020, Davos-Klosters, Remnant TV by Michael J Matt).
The ploy of the revolutionaries is to define Trump as a fascist. “Just as the German people could not have stopped their genocidal fascist program without driving out Hitler and the Nazi regime, we must act with all our resolve to drive this regime—a 21st century fascist regime led by a demented bully with his finger on the nuclear trigger—out of power” (video “Siege of the White House,” YouTube). But to intelligent Americans Trump shows no signs similar to the Nazi regime. Anarchists burning cities, beating those who disagree, and accosting police seems far more akin to this description. In fact, the Refuse Fascism sign is the same as that of fascism in Germany, the raised extended arm and open hand.
America was not ready for the kind of revolution the left envisioned in 2010, nor strong enough last May in front of the White House, but it must be perceived as close for the Canadian group to call all hate-Trumpers from all parts of the nation to rise in unison with instructions to, “Stay in the streets in August [and] Build for UNITED NATIONWIDE MASS PROTEST Saturday, September 5 [and] DEMAND TRUMP PENCE OUT NOW!,” this to follow 12 days later when all gather in DC for the White House Siege lasting 50 days. Their flyer says, “Are you ready for revolution? We are too.”

A Vancouver, British Columbia group calling themselves the Adbusters recently placed an ad in social media calling upon “tens of thousands of our fellow citizens [to] lay siege to the White House” on September 17, 2020 (The White House Siege—Tactical Briefing #1). The siege is slated to last fifty days ending election day November 3rd.
The flyer begins “All right, all you activists” and specifically names #MeToo, #BLM, #ExtinctionRebellion and invites all anti-Trump protestors. “We want to…spark a revolution with you.” “Are you ready for revolution? We are too.” “We will lay siege to the White House. And we will sustain it for exactly fifty days.”
Their literature advocates the overthrow of the president of the United States—even a coup d’erat. Five years ago it easily would have been called treason but in the “hate Trump era” fed to us nightly by almost all major media outlets and Big Tech, which censors anything good about the man or conservatism, this is the new normal at least until a Democrat is returned to the White House. In a photograph attributed to this movement the left third of the White House is pictured with smoke and flames ascending into the sky. Through the windows one can see flames enveloping the center of the building. All Big Tech outlets from which this information is taken, Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter are conjoined in promoting the September 17 event. All allow its advertisements on their platforms. Their literature uses the words non-violent but they have yet to condemn the violence in Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland or anywhere else, calling these peaceful protests, while they censor doctors advocating saving lives with hydroxychloroquine.
“All right, all you activists,” their flyer calls them, a much nicer name than anarchists, revolutionists, or even traitors. After all, the election is just days away. These obviously are Biden supporters. Why not go door to door campaigning for him as in the past, unless you are afraid that most of the “smelly Walmart people” actually like Trump?
Anarchists are instead instructed to “Stay in the streets in August [and] Build for UNITED NATIONWIDE MASS PROTEST Saturday, September 5 [and] DEMAND TRUMP PENCE OUT NOW!” Another flyer shows a drawing of hundreds gathered in front of the White House with their fists raised and clenched in anger, “We will lay siege to the White House. And we will sustain it for exactly fifty days. This is the #WhiteHouseSiege.”Why until Nov. 3, because it is the end date to bring Joe Biden to power and this is what the anarchy is all about.
Continuing “It’s time … for dramatic, decisive action. Which is why, on September 17th, …we and tens of thousands of our fellow citizens will stream into Lafayette Square, in Washington. D.C.” We “will electrify the U.S. election season — and it doesn’t stop there. Drawing wind from #MeToo, #BLM, [and] #ExtinctionRebellion,” and other protest hate Trump groups.
And then their real intent is identified, “We’ll inspire a global movement of systemic change — a Global Spring — a cultural heave towards a new world order.” New World Order is, and always has been, code for world government. Their literature describes what siege means, “You dig in, hold your ground, and the tension accumulates, amplifies, goes global.” This is the real reason Trump is despised. He opposes world government which results in the loss of American independence.
Then the coup conspirators threaten the president. They argue President Trump will not leave the White House voluntarily should he lose the election thus, with the people already assembled, they will “drag Trump from the White House when he loses.” Some elections, as in Gore/Bush were close and not resolved for weeks, and this one only by the Supreme Court. Would the media created mob act prematurely? Of course, they already plan to. Their flyer says so. “We will not let Donald Trump steal the election!” Such an outcome is predictable. The revolutionist and their media outlets are setting the nation up for a second Civil War if this election is too close to call right away.
This pre-election seizure of the White House is a threat to all Americans. We believe that it is designed to bait President Trump into aggressive action that is likely to result in injury or death to someone which would be used to propagandized for escalation. Antifa is not above doing something like this. Bloodshed could then lead to another Civil War.
Since the District of Columbia is constitutionally federal property thus federally managed, Trump could surround the White House with a second fence as with St John’s Church. We recommend closure of the White House and Lafayette Square to the public until after the results of the election are confirmed. Also extend endangered parameters to up to a half mile and enforce no camping in public. If the mob defies the closure, with drones or other emitters, spray the park as needed with skunk juice as the Israelis do to defer intruders on the Gaza Strip. Unwanted guests leave immediately as they cannot stand their smell and do not return for up to six weeks because the smell remains. Consider spraying a week before revolutionists arrive.
Otherwise Madonna’s comment comes to mind, “Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House” (Women’s March Jan. 21, 2017). If this comes off as their photo graphically portrays, she and the revolutionaries may get their wish.

We recently covered America’s Frontline Doctors who gathered from across the nation in front of the Supreme Court Building to vent their inability to by pass media censorship to inform Americans that much of what they have been told about COVID-19 is inaccurate and that the fear surrounding it is unnecessary. Kids can go back to school without fear, masks, or social distancing. We already have the prophylactic drugs to prevent infection and to cure the infected. These physicians are doing just that very successfully (See “America’s Frontline Doctors Censored by Big Tech,” www.LibertyUnderFire.org).
Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter de-platformed them within hours but fortunately not before 17 million heard what they had to say. They used the rest of their influence to vilify these doctors with all their other media outlets because the doctors opposed the “authorized” narrative—BE AFRAID, STAY AFRAID. We believe readers are entitled to the voice of the medical profession. The doctors, claiming to represent thousands, made other points not previously covered that America needs to hear.
Dr Stella Emanuel voiced a common concern, Americans were not allowed to listen to doctors on the front lines who actually work with COVID patients. “My message to Dr. Anthony Fauci is, when was the last time you put a stethoscope on a patient?” Implying that assessment from a distance is very different than “feeling the victim’s skin and looking them into their eyes as frontline doctors do.”
A big issue for the doctors was the sudden opposition to the drug hydroxychloroquine, successfully used by doctors for 65 years and once sacrosanct by the WHO, to make the claim that “no one needs to die.” All noticed that the Democrat led state governors and Pharma organizations are now seemingly opposed to it.
The doctors recognized that some few studies had not supported the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine. Dr Emanuel, “I want to know who is behind it [these studies] because there is no way I can see 350 patients, and counting, and nobody is dead, and they all did better,” if these drugs do not work. “I’m here to say to America, there is a cure for COVID… it’s called hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and Zithromax.” It “is time for the grassroots to wake up and say no, we’re not going to take this any longer. We’re not going to die.”
Their collective answer to these studies, as explained by Dr. Cole, was those doing the studies used “very very high doses, massive doses…. They use[d] 2400 milligrams in the first day, all you need is 200 twice a week for prophylaxis….” He identified three flawed studies in particular. “When you use massive toxic doses, you get toxic results. The drug doesn’t work when you give toxic doses.” He added, “The regimen of the drug is very simple 200 milligrams twice in a week and zinc daily.” These studies had to be retracted as a result.
He identified a bigger problem—politics. “The whole political situation has driven the fear towards this drug, so let’s address that. This drug is super safe. It’s safer than aspirin, Motrin and Tylenol, it’s super safe.” Hydroxychloroquine “should be in the hands of the American people.” Why isn’t it? Because of politics. “It’s being blocked from doctors prescribing it, and it’s being blocked from pharmacists, releasing it. They’ve been empowered to overrule the doctor’s opinion. Why is this not over the counter” as in Latin America, Indonesia and even Sub-Saharan?
Dr. James Taylor added, “If it seems like there’s an orchestrated attack that’s going on, against hydroxychloroquine, it’s because there is. When have you ever heard of a medication generating this degree of controversy? A 65 year old medication that has been in the World Health Organization’s safe essential list of medications for years.” He added, that Facebook and YouTube “the most draconian” in censorship and silencing, freely admit doing so. Mark Zuckerberg once saying, “Anything that goes against what the World Health Organization …is subject to censorship.” Taylor added, “We all know the World Health Organization has made a number of mistakes during this pandemic.”
Laura Ingraham has interviewed many other doctors successfully using hydroxychloroquine, zinc and Zithromaxso in treating the Wuhan China virus. For Fox News listeners this information is well known and verified.
Dr. Joe Ladipo, was concerned about the more controlled networks that were not giving their audience this message. He said, “Many are probably saying to themselves, I watch CNN and NBC and they don’t say anything about this.” This could be said of ABC, CBS and MSNBC as well. Welcome to censorship. The difference between now and before the virus is that now censorship affects an individual’s health. If you are compromised, get the virus, and do not have access to these drugs, you are more likely to die from COVID-19. Sadly it is also true that if your doctor is a Democrat he is less likely to prescribe these life saving drugs as well because of the media he is conditioned by. Death has now been politicized.
The biggest problem is that if Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter are allowed to control the information they will tell you what to believe, even on medical issues—not doctors. Welcome to George Orwell’s “Utopia.”
What to do? The doctors recommend everyone make four calls—all political: your governor, two U.S. senators and congressman. “Tell them that you want to know why you’re not able to get access to a drug that doctors are telling you will” reduce COVID hospitalizations and deaths.

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.
One of the most chilling government documents to emerge in U.S. history from the now fully politicized Department of Homeland Security DHS, is its National Terrorism Advisory Bulletin Alert issued February 7, 2022. It began, “The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors.”
Yes, the United States has been taken over by a socialist foreign ideology that has spent a year removing large parts of the Bill of Rights through decrees including mandated masking, immunizations, vaccine passports and lockdowns. The BLM and Antifa took over Seattle and Portland, staging at least 250 riots throughout the country in 2020, hurting, burning and looting, destroying police headquarters, government buildings, stores and even churches. They tore down statues of Founding Fathers and great leaders including Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. It’s about time government held these domestic terrorists accountable!!!
The alert continued, “These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence. Mass casualty attacks and other acts of targeted violence conducted by lone offenders and small groups acting in furtherance of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances pose an ongoing threat to the nation.” Amen again, isn’t this precisely what the new government, especially with blue state mayors and governors, have been doing to America with Marxists fifth columns BLM and Antifa?
The Department of Home Land Security identified the enemy as “the proliferation of false or misleading narratives, which sow discord or undermine public trust in U.S. government institutions” principally in the “widespread online proliferation of false or misleading narratives regarding unsubstantiated widespread election fraud and COVID-19.” So any message that counters anything said by the government, (currently the marriage between the Democratic Party, Big Tech, Big Media, Big Pharma), is disinformation and the one giving it is a domestic terrorist. This is especially so respecting election fraud and COVID-19. Who decides what is false or misleading? It appears they alone. So speech is criminalized and the First Amendment erased.
Welcome to the new fascist state and the death of every restraint on government. The enemy is not those who seek to burn and destroy America, like Antifa, nor those who wish to bankrupt it with debt, which includes many Republicans, but the Constitution and those who have created the most inclusive, prosperous and free society ever created. To our present fascist government the enemy is us—the people. The enemy is free thought, debate, and expression.
The DHS document identified itself as working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to deal with this new threat and boasted of its having “established a new, dedicated domestic terrorism branch to produce the sound, timely intelligence needed to counter related threats. The Department expanded its evaluation of online activity as part of its efforts to assess and prevent acts of violence.” This is called the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency or (CISA).
NAZI Germany did precisely the same thing with the SS when it also defined its own citizens as the enemy, resulting in millions sent to, and dying from, their concentration camps. The threat alert had a bold subheading Report Potential Threats and advised reporting suspicious activity, “If You See Something, Say Something,” it read. In short, turn in you patriotic neighbor.
None of those who have followed the history of the FBI or the DOJ, especially lately, should be surprised. During the Robert Mueller investigation the FBI continually handed off damaging disinformation leaks to the New York Times. Certainly former FBI director James Comey ran interference preventing prosecution of Hillary Clinton for her over 300 deleted but classified emails. And wasn’t Ray Eps and other feds leading the January 6th “insurrection?”
Biden Adm. now define parents as domestic terrorist.
And just last November didn’t the Justice Department begin targeting parents at school board meetings opposing Critical Race Theory and mandated mask wearing for their children? Resisting parents were defined as domestic terrorists and the DOJ authorized data collection on them. This, because of the collusion of the Biden Administration and the National School Board Association which resulted in the government’s domestic terror letter/memo encouraging such.
Meanwhile a two-week civil war rehearsal training camp exercise took place in North Carolina last month for a newly created domestic terrorist unit. The exercise was to “teach Special Forces how to overthrow an ‘illegitimate government’ [and this] just weeks after DOJ announced [its’] new ‘domestic terrorism’ unit.” It is billed as a “training exercise using unconventional guerrilla warfare to defeat [a] numerically superior enemy.” Critics fear that “the exercises encourages soldiers to target civilians”—our citizens (Ep. 2676B, “All Assets [F] Deployed, Checkmate, When do birds Sing?” X22 Report, Jan. 13, 2022, 34:00).
Why the newly created domestic terror unit and fear of an illegitimate government? Democrats view all who disagree with them as domestic terrorists and likely Donald Trump supporters. They also fear his return to power as “their illegitimate government” thus the guerrilla warfare prep.
With this new DOJ domestic terrorist alert and the former DOJ memo defining parents as domestic terrorists, they will soon be rounding up: physicians, journalists, parents, scholars and undoubtedly ministers. To some religion is disinformation. Censoring failed, now government will descend to a deeper level of tyranny by punishing “disinformation” as domestic terrorism.

At least a dozen medical doctors from all over America assembled in front of the Supreme Court July 27 to counter the only message going forward allowed the American people with respect to the coronavirus. Many had already experienced the removal of their messages on Google, which owns 70% of most American media outside Fox News, including FaceBook, and YouTube (Tucker Carlson Tonight, June 16, 2020).
Outside their COVID expertise they had one thing in common that made their contribution superior to those of Anthony Fauci (a vaccine-ologist), the CDC and WHO, they are the actual physicians of those with COVID-19. They also each had come independently to the conclusion that the 65-year-old drug hydroxychloroquine used so successfully in COVID-1 previously, also worked extremely well with its cousin COVID-19 “it’s 78% similar to the prior version the COVID-1. Not surprisingly, it works.”
These frontline doctors were seasoned physicians in the trenches with the virus. All knew that consequences against their speaking out would likely follow. All knew that what they had to share would be nuked by every media piping the approved media message—be afraid, stay afraid. All knew that what they would tell the American public would be opposite what most Americans were getting on establishment networks, but all were committed to tell the truth. All probably also knew that if they did not speak out now freedom of the press might be gone. If the medical profession could be silenced all other interests challenging the left side of the political spectrum could never survive. Doctors are among the most revered and least political part of our society.
They reasoned that with their combined story they might get through the wall of censorship already in place. They were wrong!! Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter de-platformed them within hours the same day but fortunately not before 17 million heard what they had to say. The establishment print press went after them immediately. It was difficult to find any press, outside Fox News, that did not undermine everything they said, our media is so controlled. It remains that none of the journalists, or fact checkers in these countering pieces were themselves physicians. They know nothing in comparison.
Here are some of the messages Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter refused to allow Americans to hear. This is every bit as big a censoring as burning books in the Middle Ages.
Dr. Simone Gold spoke of two phases of the virus, early and late, both treatable with present drugs. But physicians are confronted with a generated “spider web of fear…all around us and it’s constricting us” and “draining the lifeblood of the American people,” society and economy that “does not make sense.” The virus is “treatable” now. “That’s what we’re here to tell you.” “But we implore you to hear this, because this message has been silenced.” “There are many thousands of physicians who have been silenced from telling the American people… that we can manage the virus.” Why? Because “it’s 78% similar to the prior version the COVID-1” successfully treated with hydroxychloroquine. “Not surprisingly, it works.”
Dr Bob Hamilton, a pediatrician from Santa Monica, California practicing for 36 years, told reporters that kids are almost entirely asymptomatic and can go back to school now, implying without social distancing or masking. “The mortality rates of children is about one fifth of 1%.” Kids are “not passing it on to their parents or not passing it on to their teachers.” He quoted a pediatric infectious disease specialist and epidemiologists from Scotland, Dr. Mark who said, “There has not been one documented case of COVID being transferred from a student to a teacher in the world, in the world.” Dr. Hamilton continued, “We need to act out of science,” not out of a generated fear. A fear respecting opening up the schools is driven mostly by the wants of teachers’ unions not the needs of the kids.
Dr Stella Emanuel, who works especially with compromised COVID patients as old as 92 with serious medical conditions: diabetes, high blood pressure and asthma told reporters, that “patients do not need to die.” None of hers has and she has treated over 350 back to health. “I put them on hydroxychloroquine, zinc and Zithromax,” she told reporters, and I’ve “not lost one.” She also placed herself and staff on hydroxychloroquine as a prophylaxis as “we see patients, 10 to 15 patients every day…we only wear surgical masks, none of us has gotten sick. It works.” Adding, “Nobody needs to die.” Implicit in this comment and voiced by other physicians is that most of those who died could have been spared if treated with hydroxychloroquine in phase one as a prophylactic, and in phase two with the other two drugs.
And why does hydroxychloroquine work so well? Dr. Cole explained, “It concentrates in the lungs 200 to 700 times higher” than the bloodstream. The invading virus heads for the lungs but is blocked by the drug chloroquine from getting in. That is why the drug is so effective as a prophylactic. Should it get in it seeks to replicate. The addition of “Zinc will mess up the copy machine called RdRP.”
Dr Stella Emanuel summed up why the frontline doctors were there. “I came here to Washington DC, to tell America. Nobody needs to get sick. This virus has a cure. It is called hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and Zithromax… You don’t need masks, or shutdowns, there is a cure.” Then adding, “It is time for the grassroots to wake up and say no, we’re not going to take this any longer. We’re not going to die.” “When people are dying, it’s unethical.” We know how to treat this virus. We do it every day.

At the close of the cable news show Tucker Carlson Tonight July 20, 2020, Tucker had the strangest ending that I have ever heard a news anchor announce. I could feel his fear for his family
It began normal, “Well, all of a sudden the media have ripped off the mask and they’re supporting violence as a political tactic. They spent the last few months describing the riots as mostly peaceful. It provided cover for rioting. They’ve watched conservative speakers shut down, their families harassed.” I have published similar sentences describing the deep state, establishment media coverage of the law and order issues of today.
He next apologized for referencing himself. “Since the show began almost four years ago, I’ve really tried not to talk about myself on the air, or even use the first person pronoun. The last thing this country needs is more narcissism.”
He then related how the media with the thug organization Antifa had driven him out of his home in Washington DC almost two years before. “Left wing journalists publicized our home address in Washington. A group of screaming Antifa lunatics showed up while I was at work. They vandalized our home. They threatened my wife. She called 911 while hiding in a closet. A few weeks later they showed up again at our house. For the next year they sent letters to our home threatening to kill us. We tried to ignore it. It felt cowardly to sell our home and leave. We raised our kids there, in the neighborhood, and we loved it. But in the end, that’s what we did. We have four children. It just wasn’t worth it.”
Returning to his reluctance to report as news his persecution he said, “But tonight we’re going to make an exception to that rule. We don’t have much choice.”
I sat glued to my chair listening in horror because what was happening to him in America, with millions listening, could happen to anyone without an audience. He was one of the most viewed anchors in America.
But what came next is representative of what happened under Germany’s Adolph Hitler or Joseph Stalin’s media tyranny in Russia. “Last week the New York Times began working on a story about where my family and I live. As a matter of journalism, there is no conceivable justification for a story like that. The paper is not alleging we’ve done anything wrong and we haven’t. We pay our taxes, we like our neighbors. We’ve never had a dispute with anyone. So why is the New York Times doing a story on the location of my family’s house? Well you know why. To hurt us, to injure my wife and kids so that I will shut up and stop disagreeing with them. They believe in force.”
This is the New York Times, for more than a century the most trusted news outlet in America, and they are adopting the suppression tactics of two of the most brutal dictators in world history. The tactics of each the Times covered over past decades with distain.
Tucker continued. “But the New York Times followed us. The paper has assigned a political activists called Murray Carpenter to write a story about where we are now. They’ve hired a photographer called Tristen Spinski to take pictures. Their story about where we live is slated to run in the paper this week. Editors there know exactly what will happen to my family when it does run. I called them today and I told them, but they didn’t care. They hate my politics. They want this show off the air. If one of my children gets hurt because of a story they wrote, they will consider it collateral damage. They know! It’s the whole point of the exercise, to inflict pain on our family, to terrorize us, to control what we say. That’s the kind of people they are.”
Of course, the New York Times knows what they are doing. They saw how it worked under Hitler and Stalin—they are the Times—they were horrified with what they covered then. Now they are doing the same to those who disagree with them. Carlson added “They’ll deny this, of course, they’ll claim it’s just journalism, just the facts. Really!!”
Then he asked for empathy. “So how would Murray Carpenter and his photographer Tristen Spinski feel if we [Tucker Carlson Tonight] told you where they live? If we put pictures of their homes on the air? What if we publicize the home address of every one of the soulless robot editors at the New York Times, who was assigned and managed this incitement to violence against my family? What about the media editor, Jim Windoff? We can do that. We know who they are. Would that qualifies as journalism? We doubt they’d consider it as journalism. We don’t consider this journalism.”
Carlson made an astute but truthful observation. “They’d call it criminal behavior if we did it.” Then concluded, “And that tells you everything! It does tell you everything!!”
If The New York Times can destroy a very popular FOX News anchor, it can destroy any media source. A free press in America is close to being an illusion.
We hope our assistance in publicizing this travesty will help stop its escalation.

Last April the Washington Post published an article “Will Americans wear masks to prevent coronavirus spread?” It listed a variety of reasons why some will not wear masks. Unfortunately it missed the main one—masks help make and keep America afraid. The media, WHO and the CDC have been wrong on virtually every aspect of the virus, from early estimates of American death predictions from 2 to 3 million to even the practicality of wearing a mask. For many wearing masks represents submission to those with little regard for the Bill of Rights, not selfish insensitivity to others who might get the virus from the unmasked, as those who wish to take our liberty openly say.
One bluntly said, “If Donald Trump had not been elected president it would not be hyped.” Another, “Nothing more will be said of it if Joe Biden is elected president.”
The media began with the horrific death prediction of millions. When those numbers were not high enough opponents did two things to inflate them: one by counting deaths with Covid-19 as the same as those dying from Covid-19 and two, infecting nursing homes with patients with the virus. Turns out that more than 40% of those dying were in nursing homes. When a drug used to treat malaria—hydroxy-chloroquine—was found to cure the coronavirus as well, instead of excitement over the finding, the media and their accomplices unsuccessfully did everything to discredit its use. Clearly their agenda was to make and keep Americans afraid.
It is clear to most that the virus had been weaponized for the election of 2020. It damaged Trump’s best economy in U.S. history, nearly ended the popular Trump rallies, justified Biden’s non-aggressive presidential campaigning because of his obvious cognitive failings, provided the rational for three or less presidential debates and vote by mail efforts—all benefiting the Democrat Party.
The absolute best strategy for keeping Americans afraid is to keep them wearing and practicing the symbols of fear—masks, distancing, partially closed churches and in small groups. It is a constant reminder that the emergency is present and ongoing. The next best is to keep children from returning to school. That there exists no science that keeping children out of school is a benefit to them does not matter, nor that virtually all of Europe has opened their classrooms.
Nor did it matter that the Asian Pandemic of 1957 with a death of 116,000 Americans, or the Hong Kong Pandemic of 1968 with 100,000 deaths, may still be more than the 130,000 dying from Covid-19, subtracting at least 25% of those who did not actually die from Covid-19, but with it. The populations were much lower then and they wore no masks, closed no businesses, restaurants, churches, sporting events, schools, colleges or large gatherings. The population of America is 328,239,523. Do the math, dividing this number by 130,000 deceased equals .0004 X 100 =.04%—infinitesimally low. Dividing by the three million who got it, and recovered, .009 or 0.9% is not even 1% of the population.
This is why the vast majority of Americans cannot identify a family member or close friend dying from Covid-19. Still, the Left has Americans paralyzed and perpetually afraid. The death rate of the flu two years ago, 61,000, did not even make the news, but this is a presidential election.
Again the media have lost credibility. The same sources now pushing the narrative that those not wearing masks are doing so because of their selfishness and insensitivity toward others are the same people and outlets that were wrong at every turn respecting the coronavirus.
But none of this is new!! We count nine times when these same media outlets, organizations, and persons attempted to upend, even by coup d’etat, the 2016 presidential election.
Let’s review these attempts three happening simultaneously before Trump took office. Spygate the Trump Tower wiretapping, demonstrations in cities all over the United States (presumably funded by George Sores, to refuse the results of the 2016 election with signs “Not My President”), and finally, the Republican “Never Trumpers” movement. Once inaugurated the effort to get someone in his administration to declare him unfit so as to use the 25th Amendment to remove him followed. Then the Russia Hoax and the resultant 2 1/2 year Robert Mueller Investigation. This followed by disclosure of the FBI/CIA Coup attempt to unseat him, next the Ukrainian Hoax, followed by the failed Impeachment attempt. Nine easily documented attempts to remove Trump from office. On issues relating to Trump it is hard to find anything upon which these media were accurate.
Trump endured three congressional investigations: the Mueller and Horowitz Reports, each exonerating him, and the US Senate Impeachment trial acquitting him. Trump suffered more unjustified opposition/persecution than all U.S. presidents combined.
So what is the main reason so many refuse to wear masks? Americans cannot be convinced that politicalization of the coronavirus is not the 10th attempt to oust Trump and bring down America and the anarchists the 11th. Many feel used, betrayed and undefended as they watch these same sources excuse non-wearing of masks for rioters and anarchists but condemn such for the rest. If most cannot identify a family member that has died from this pandemic after almost six months of headlines of death, why would they trust these falsifying sources? To many the preservation of the Bill of Rights and not wearing the symbols of control and fear are all they have to resist those who want to make and keep Americans afraid and take our liberty.
