What's The Difference Between The Biden Regime, And Amtrak

When the Biden Regime goes around destroying stuff, people, the economy, decency, jobs, health, everything, it's deliberate.

The Amtrak disaster MIGHT have been an accident.

Possibility

Men without hope, resigned to despair and oppression, do not make revolutions. It is when expectation replaces submission, when despair is touched with the awareness of possibility, that the forces of human desire and the passion for justice are unloosed."
-Senator Robert F. Kennedy
"A Speech on Race" at Berkeley, California (October 22, 1966)

Matt Taibbi On Censorship, Self- And External

Another excellent article from Matt Taibbi, covering three important related subjects:

1) How some are being herded into self-censorship.

2) Applying George Orwell's “1984” to our present circumstances. I read "1984" around fifty years ago, and is one of the few books I do plan to read a second time, especially in light of events and what I have learned over the past half-century.

3) What was gleaned from The Twitter Files. While the series is on my list of things to read, there is much to read in those 19 articles, and I have had to focus on other matters. Matt's summary is no substitute for reading the entire series, but it helps until time does permit to get to those articles.

You can read all of The Twitter Files HERE, nicely compiled.

On his Substack Page, Matt provides a short summary of each Twitter Files installment, accompanied by a Link to Matt's Twitter Posting for that installment. But to read the article on Twitter, which even on that series limited the number of characters per posting. Thus, instead of a single article, you're stuck going through the "Comments" where the rest of the story is parceled out.

So the best strategy is to read Matt's summaries, then read the assembled articles other than on Twitter.

I would not be doing any favors by attempting to excerpt highlights from Matt's article, Linked below. It merits a full reading.

Government Expansion Of Child Control

CalMatters has a story on whether the State Of California is going to provide childcare workers a significant pay raise.

Those that control government want complete dominance over the children. They aren't content just to put youth in government indoctrination camps ("schools")--they want to fill even more of the children's time. Future adults raised by corporatism, what could possibly go right with that? So sorry independent childcare providers, maybe you'll get a pittance pay raise to maintain the illusion that government wants to help children or cares about you. But it's probably time to look at a career change, just like the genuine educators fleeing the government "schools" because they are paid crap and have to put up with plenty.
________________________________________

For years family child care providers — the vast majority of them women of color — have said they don’t get paid enough by the state of California to cover the costs of their businesses. Their fight for better pay and benefits, a two-decades-old effort, is reaching a fever pitch in California’s capital this year.

[Snip]

Bargaining for a new one this year, the union has called for a 25% bump in reimbursement rates the state pays to providers who care for low-income families’ kids — and state funding for the union to set up a trust to issue retirement benefits.

[Snip]

The state’s reimbursement rates are generally tied to how much providers charge in the private market — but because many child care providers lower their prices to meet what parents can afford, the rates have ended up artificially low, in a system that a state-commissioned report last year described as a “market failure.” That in turn results in chronic shortages of child care for parents.

[Snip]

Because the current rates are so low, a new model could be dramatically more expensive for the state. In some cases, providers may have to be paid three or four times what the state currently covers.

Hello Cipro, Still Not A Friend

Telegraph UK has a surreal article, gaslighting the gullible into believing the medical cartel and government care about the public enjoying good health.

It's interesting that not once in the article is the term, "Gulf War Syndrome" used.

One person commits suicide because of a drug, and it's a major story. Millions die because of you-know-what, and it's a suppressed story.

Also not mentioned by Telegraph is the fact that mental challenges caused by Cipro have been well-documented for more than twenty years. And are not rare at all. For example, an article from Worst Pills that was published in October, 2002, titled "Drug Induced Psychiatric Symptoms". The Worst Pills article is behind a paywall, and I'll respect that, but under the doctrine of Fair Use--and at only fifteen bucks a year, Worst Pills is a bargain--here's the pertinent part:

Family:
Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics

Examples:
ciprofloxacin (CIPRO); levofloxacin (LEVAQUIN); sparfloxacin (ZAGAM)

Reactions
psychosis, confusion, agitation, depression, hallucinations, paranoia, Tourette-like syndrome (a form of tic), mania

Notes:
many reports

___________________________________________________________

A retired cardiologist with no history of mental health problems took his own life one week after taking an antibiotic with a “rare” link to suicide, a coroner has found.

Robert Stevenson, a “respected” and “experienced” consultant cardiologist, hanged himself around a week after he started a course of ciprofloxacin.

Coroner Martin Fleming has issued a warning over potential side-effect of the antibiotic, which is commonly used in the health service. In 2020, UK community pharmacists dispensed around one million prescriptions for ciprofloxacin, according to The Ecologist.

[Snip]

Writing to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the coroner said doctors may not be aware of the potential side-effect.

“During the inquest, I was referred by Mr Stevenson’s treating urologist to published literature relating to ciprofloxacin and quinolone antibiotics and a potential rare link to suicidal behaviour in patients,” he said.

“Although I found on the balance of probabilities that it remained unclear that he was suffering from this side-effect, it remained possible for this to be the case. I heard evidence to suggest that the prescribing doctor did not reference this side-effect at the time of issuing the prescription to Mr Stevenson, since it was not in accord with current advice.”

[Snip]

Dr Janine Jolly, the MHRA deputy director of benefit/risk evaluation, said: “We are very sorry to hear of Dr Stevenson’s death and would like to express our sympathies to his family.”

“As with any serious suspected side-effects, reports of fatalities are evaluated by us, including an assessment of post-mortem details if available. We will be reviewing the coroner’s verdict.”

“We will carefully consider the points raised by the coroner in the Regulation 28 Report to consider whether further regulatory action is required to minimise risks to patients and will provide a response upon completion of our investigation.”

Culling With Splenda

I have been reading articles and studies about the poison sold under the brand name of "Splenda" since shortly after it was unleashed on the American people. We now have yet another study that will probably also be ignored by those who are in various states of still being alive even tho they consumed the stuff.

Splenda'sdamage is so systemic, yet some find it easy to persist with the blinders and float down that river of Denial.

The full article is a good read, excerpts below. Kudos once again to the Epoch Times for doing actual journalism.

__________________________________

"New health and safety findings revealed in the study show sucralose, sometimes sold under the brand name Splenda, is 'genotoxic,' meaning it breaks up DNA. That’s on top of other condemning evidence revealed in the study published May 29 in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health. Years of independent research into sucralose have dismantled many of the original claims made in its food additive permit."

[Snip]

“'This is not acceptable. We can’t have genotoxic compounds in our food supply,' Susan Schiffman, corresponding author of the study, told The Epoch Times. 'I think if it was presented to the FDA today, they would not approve it. The original claims made to the FDA, they just aren’t true. I don’t know how they missed it.'”

[Susan must have missed the FDA approval and pushing of the CV1984 bioweapon, Remdesivir, Paxlovid, and so much more, leaving no doubt about the fact that the FDA has repeatedly actively aided and abetted the culling of the herd].

[Snip]

“Because previous research has also shown a connection between sucralose and gut health, the researchers also exposed gut cells to the metabolite and observed increased activity in genes related to oxidative stress, inflammation and carcinogenicity, showing significant risks from consumption.

Additionally, both sucralose and sucralose-6-acetate exposed to gut epithelial tissues were found to cause a condition called 'leaky gut.'”

[Snip]

“Unrelated to this study, the World Health Organization recently offered a controversial warning that sugar substitutes like sucralose raise the risk of severe health conditions, such as Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and mortality.”
