Troubling news from Germany, Washington DC, and Washington state

Guest post by Steve Kirsch

Germany wants to ban Telegram. Washington DC requires you to be vaccinated to go to the bathroom. Washington state wants to put you in jail for a year if you don’t follow their health orders.

At-a-Glance

  • Vaccines against COVID are not working, yet authorities all over the world are ramping up the pressure to comply with vaccine mandates in order to ‘“keep us safe”.
  • According to the German newspaper Die Welt, their government is planning to shut down Telegram, a messaging app, because those opposed to COVID restrictions and lockdowns can use Telegram to share information and organize protests.
  • Washington State wants to put you in jail for a year if you don’t comply with their health orders, including requiring you to be vaccinated.
  • Many cities are implementing policies requiring proof of vaccine to enter certain establishments or even to keep your city job.
  • If you are unhappy with the way things are going, please subscribe to my newsletter and disseminate this information widely. Join with an estimated 200,000 others at the Defeat the Mandate rally on Sunday, January 23, 20 in Washington, DC.

The authorities are ramping up the pressure even more to get us to comply with what they want us to do “so that they can keep us safe.”

How has the CDC guidance been working out? It’s obvious from this graph (which you won’t see on CNN):

So when something isn’t working, what do you do? Sane people listen would start to listen to qualified people with a different point of view. Insane people keep doing the same stuff over and over again and expect a different result.

In case you haven’t figured it out, we’re in the insanity category. It’s how we roll.

Naturally, the authorities will never blame the fact that cases are out of control on their own dumb advice. They are going to blame the unvaccinated and anyone who isn’t complying with their advice.

So they will double down on their mandates and make it even harder for critical thinkers to live.

The more it becomes evident that the entire pandemic response has been a complete disaster, the harder people will push back. And the harder people resist, the harder governments will push back by locking down free speech and putting people in jail who refuse to comply with their mandates.

So things are going to get worse. A lot worse.

Check out the latest news headlines…

Germany wants to ban Telegram

A report in the German newspaper Die Welt suggests that the government there is considering taking action to shut down messaging app Telegram.

Why?

Because people opposed to COVID restrictions and lockdowns are using it to organize protests and share information! This is unacceptable to the German government. They require blind obedience.

Read the ZeroHedge article for more info or watch this video:

Fortunately for us, Telegram is a distributed organization that moves around and keeps their location secret. It’s a good thing for freedom of speech.

Washington state wants to put you in jail for a year if you don’t comply with their health orders, including requiring you to be vaccinated

Look at what’s happening in Washington state in America right now as an example.

Here’s an excerpt:

Under the RCWs cited “A person who violates or fails to comply with a health order issued under RCW 70.24.024 is guilty of a gross misdemeanor punishable by confinement until the order has been complied with or terminated, up to a maximum period of three hundred sixty-four days.”

So if they want you to take a vaccine, any vaccine, you better comply or they will put you in jail. They can then repeat that again and again. So basically, you better take the vaccine they want to inject in you, or you will spend the rest of your life in jail.

That’s not a violation of the Nuremberg Code is it? (of course it is, but what do they care).

Washington DC now won’t let you go to the bathroom if you aren’t vaccinated

Even more spectacular is what just went into place today January 15 in Washington DC:

VaxDC Signage

Unvaccinated and want to go to the bathroom? Good luck with that! You have to hold it until you get to Virginia.

However, hotels are not included in the mandate, and federal government buildings fall outside the city’s jurisdiction so that’s a relief (for the moment).

You can still go to grocery stores, pharmacies, and airports. But how long will that last? Another month?

San Jose forces all city employees to be vaccinated

More Nuremberg Code violations. San Jose, CA is requiring all 7,000 employees to be triple-vaccinated or lose their job. Wow. Pfizer and Moderna must love that!

And if you want to attend any large indoor event, you must show proof of either a booster shot or a negative COVID test before you can enter.

The policies were unanimously approved by the City Council.

The Mayor proclaimed that San Jose is leading the US with this measure.

Does he understand that they have to be vaccinated every 60 days as clearly shown by the Denmark study?

Take action

If you think the world is moving in the right direction, you don’t need to do anything. Sit back and relax.

Meanwhile, in Florida….

DeSantis administration puts Florida health director on leave for encouraging vaccinations for his staff

As the decision to get vaccinated is a personal medical choice that should be made free from coercion and mandates from employers, the employee in question has been placed on administrative leave, and the Florida Department of Health is conducting an inquiry to determine if any laws were broken in this case.

The three west coast states and even BC seems to be in a contest to see who can out-lib the other. When one of the states passes a batshit crazy law, the other states say “hold my beer,” and try to be even nuttier. I’m sure the California and Oregon legislatures are already writing their own laws to jail the malcontents who will not get triple jabbed.

Living out here is like being at the circus every day.

>>>Is this not a good thing Washing State will self destruct?

I’m afraid you may be right. I spent 30+ years in WA (both east and west of the Cascades); the place at one time (pre-1990) had a semi-libertarian vibe.

Unfortunately, as in Colorado, the Californication of the place has proceeded vigorously, and it’s all slowly turning into metro Seattle… which is not good thing.

As with Colorado… paradise lost.

So two conversations today….
The first was with a fellow real estate agent. He lives in the very blue enclave of a Boston suburb. Nice enough guy, no issues with his work. He is baffled his 30-something year old niece refuses the vax and will not vax her kids. His reasoning? “We all had to get vaccinations as kids”. I didn’t even bother to try and explain the difference. He said “I’m not a doctor, so I don’t even try and figure it out”. So that sums up pretty much everything that’s wrong here. People are either too lazy, intimidated, or brainwashed, or all three, and truly believe every damn thing they are told by someone with a white coat.
My response: “I believe in live and let live and it should be everyone’s individual choice”. We just left it at that.

The second conversation (OK, not really a conversation, it was my 87 year old Aunt just talking at me through the phone for 30 minutes) consisted of her bafflement at how her two granddaughters (one is 27 the other 30, both healthy) got the jabs and yet still got covid? How? How is this possible?

She has berated me about 4 times in the past year about not getting jabbed, because “you never know what could happen”. That’s not a reason to do anything. That’s acting out of blind fear. Pass.

So I say…well did they die? (I know they are alive).
No, they didn’t die
So they are OK?
Yeah, they are just not feeling good.
So what’s the problem?
Cue old lady answer:
You never know what could happen. 🤦‍♀️

This is not the mind of a rational person. This is not the mind of someone who can look at the situation and understand there is nothing to worry about.

She then proceeds to tell me how she looks every day at “all the people that keep dying” in the country from Covid.

I tell her, hey, statistically 7492 people die every day in the US.

Yes, she said, but a lot of that is Covid.

Ok, well let’s assume that’s true. Does it matter?

Yes it matters. People are dying from this and no one cares anymore!

So all the people that die from heart attacks, car accidents, drownings, murders, suicide, drug ODs….does anyone care about them? You know if covid is gone tomorrow people will keep dying.

I’m 87 years old, and with my health problems I am not looking for death out there. I haven’t been to a restaurant or a show in two years.

Sigh. This woman thinks existing in her home for 2 years is being alive. This is a brain fed exclusively on MSM. It’s like a 2 year old being fed only twinkies and candy for 2 years and then being surprised they are retarded and fat.

I have totally given up trying to have any kind of logical, rational conversation with these people because they are completely incapable of it on any level. Fear is now their only motive for anything they do, and they are an entire population of Pavlov’s dog.

People that I once thought of as intelligent individuals have now shown their utter incompetence at even the simplest of thought processes. We are fucked.

Key point here… “This woman thinks existing in her home for 2 years is being alive,”

It seems the very definition of “life” has been hijacked to mean a “100% safe and risk free existence”. That, seemingly, all forward motion must stop for fear of injury or gasp, death. Are these people going to stand still and wait for the inevitable to come? Do they somehow think they are going to escape the inevitable?

Finally, do they not realize that physical death is only the beginning of a glorious new life?

1 Corinthians 15:35-38 KJB… “But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.”

Hope itself and any expectation of the positive in this life or the next has been meticulously drained away by expert principalities and powers very few truly understand. There is only one way to combat this problem and that is with the incredible message of hope provided to the Apostle Paul by the risen and glorified Lord Christ.

A return to the truth that we are eternal beings given a temporary existence/assignment in this world, in which we are to demonstrate our desire to be with Him who created us. This world is bound and destined for destruction; it is written. This is not cause for alarm however, it is a call to action! The call is to pull people out of this world that they realize the next, and with patience and hope, begin to look forward to it! The fear of death begins to diminish as the knowledge takes hold, that life in this world AS IT WAS MEANT TO BE LIVED might begin!

Salvation is for those who love life and want to live it fully; here in this sin cursed world, warts and all… and in the next; glorified in perfection!

Nicely put. Real faith is believing our earthly existence is our temporary home.. Satan’s biggest deception is making people believe that the physical existence is all there is.

We have 2 lives and Paul has nothing to do with either. There is the animal life and the spiritual life and Jesus and his apostles make very clear just how rare the latter is.

Uhhh, Paul was an Apostle of Christ. The Apostle of the Gentiles.

Romans 1:1 KJB… “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,”

1 Corinthians 1:1 KJB… “Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,“

2 Corinthians 1:1 KJB… “Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:”

It goes like this at the beginning of his every epistle.

German here. Banning Telegram is not gonna happen. It’s a running gag, people still remember the internet Stop signs a clueless Ursula von der Leyen wanted to use to prevent access to pedo stuff. Stop signs on the internet, true story. Now they say they gonna remove Telegram from the app stores. Actually, Telegram is advertised! It’s full of sh** the alphabets want people to ingest. It’s a tool to steer the masses. The game played is Hegelian dialectic. Next phase coming in, the reaction.

Hegel was Big Trouble, with a capital T:

“The modern State… when comprehended philosophically, could therefore be seen as the highest articulation of Spirit, or God in the contemporary world.” The state, then, is “a supreme manifestation of the activity of God in the world,” and, “the State stands above all; it is Spirit which knows itself as the universal essence and reality”; and, “The State is the reality of the kingdom of heaven.” And finally, “The State is God’s Will.”

No wonder the Prussian leadership strata loved the guy, who received State awards and medals, and a lifestime of University work. Funny how things just sometimes work out.

Thanks Steve – I would love to be there but in UK it’s a long way to go. However you have my spirit in place and I will continue the battle from my keyboard.

BTW – I was thinking how all this mandate stuff is so coordinated, then I found this:

Home

They are joined at the hip with WEF and, lo and behold, they are in Germany! There is european one too. My good friend Gerry has researched all the history of this global coup which has been going on for 200 years he says starting with “Charles Fourier, (in full François-Marie-Charles Fourier), (born April 7, 1772, Besançon, France—died October 10, 1837, Paris), French social theorist who advocated a reconstruction of society based on communal associations of producers known as phalanges (phalanxes). His system came to be known as Fourierism. Some of Fourier’s social and moral views, held to be radical in his lifetime, have become mainstream thinking in modern society. For instance, Fourier is credited with having originated the word feminism in 1837.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Fourier

So it’s the Germans and the French to blame and judging by their current totalitarian mandates, we seem to be on the right track. Only America (the free part) and UK are resisting meaningfully thus far.
