DEAF AND DUMB
QUOTES OF THE DAY
The Freedom Convoy & the Collapse of Canadian Liberalism
At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to say this, that or the other, but it is “not done” to say it, just as in mid-Victorian times it was “not done” to mention trousers in the presence of a lady. Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in highbrow periodicals.
George Orwell, “Freedom of the Press”
Recently, a friend told me she’d taken part in a webinar conducted by the Council of Canadians. The webinar included First Nations people speaking about RCMP mistreatment of indigenous peoples on reserve. It was contrasted with the peaceful disbursement of freedom convoy protesters in Ottawa on February 18th.

Coincidence? The Stunning Similarities Between The Handling Of COVID And Monkeypox
Via The Blue State Conservative
There is a famous, old saying: history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.
News from around the world has been gripped in a frenzy over the world’s first-ever global outbreak of monkeypox in mid-May. Interestingly enough, just one year ago, an international biosecurity conference in Munich, Germany, held a simulation about a “global pandemic involving an unusual strain of monkeypox” starting in mid-May 2022.
America Staring into the Abyss: What’s Next?
Via The Blue State Conservative
The United States of America is staring into the abyss of dissolution. We provided a beacon of hope for an overpopulated starving world but our own light is quite close to being extinguished. The lines of illegals at the borders point to the need for an island of safety in a deteriorating world. The change in immigration policy after World War 1 allowed a generation of new citizens to assimilate. Today the cry of diversity washes over the land with the hormone-possessed wail of a 14-year-old girl. It ignores the fact that for 200 years new immigrants were expected to conform to our ways and gladly did so because of the horrid conditions in their home country.

A surprising benefit to owning gold– especially now
By the year 41 BC, just a few years after the assassination of Julius Caesar, Rome was under the strict rule of a three-person dictatorship known as the Tresviri rei publicae constituendae.
Historians today refer to this committee as the Triumvirate, and it included a general named Aemilius Lepidus, as well as Gaius Octavius– who would eventually become Emperor Augustus.
But the leader of the group, at least at first, was Marcus Antonius, also known as Mark Antony.

How Inflation Destroys Civilization… and What You Can Do About It
Thanks to rampant inflation, socialism could soon become irreversibly entrenched in the US—just as it is in Argentina, Venezuela, and other countries.
Rapidly rising food, housing, medical, and tuition prices are squeezing Americans—many of whom do not understand the true cause of their falling living standards.
The explosion in the cost of living is a predictable consequence of money printing.

Gun Stores See 7000% Increase In Customers Looking For Totally Awesome Gun That Blows The Lungs Out Of Bad Guys
U.S.—Gun stores across America have seen a major increase in interest as customers flock to their stores to find the “totally awesome gun that blows the lungs out of bad guys.” The gun, which doesn’t exist, has inadvertently boosted the sale of 9mm handguns.
“Biden has been great for business,” said Anthony Darabont, manager of Bullets For Hire in Riverside, CA. “I printed out his dumb quote on a poster and hung it around the shop. Now the guns sell themselves!”
Experts suggest the huge increase in gun sales is expected to die down soon after people realize they aren’t able to blow lungs out of anything.
Vlad Talks About Food Prices And Shortages
Mr. Putin discusses Russia’s role regarding high prices/shortages of food, fuel, fertilizers, and the completely fabricated bullshit story that he is blocking wheat from being shipped out of country 404. Once again, he is not relying on notes, crib sheets, or a teleprompter. According to the Bible (as some interpret it) it is GOD who places leaders in power. Maybe one of you bible experts here — we have so many — can tell me why God decided to fuck us over??
===================================
Pavel Zarubin: Mr President, we have just followed your meeting with the head of Senegal who is also the current leader of the African Union. He expressed, and actually in the past week many countries have expressed concern not so much about the food crisis, but they are afraid of large-scale famine because world food prices are climbing and so are oil and gas prices, These issues are interrelated.
Naturally, the West blames Russia for this, too. What is the real situation at this point, how is it developing? And what do you think will happen in the food and energy markets?
President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Yes, indeed, we are seeing attempts to place the responsibility on Russia for developments in the global food market and the growing problems there. I must say that this is another attempt to pin the blame on someone else. But why?
First, the situation with the global food market did not become worse yesterday or even with the launch of Russia’s special military operation in Donbass, in Ukraine.

SUNDAY FUNNIES
SUNDAY MORNING CLASSICS ON TBP
A collaboration of: “The Classic Music Mafia”
nkit, and Steve C.
Every Sunday morning we present selections for our TBP family to enjoy.
We present symphonies, ensembles, quartets, octets, etc.
Not all of our music is strictly ‘classical’. We may stray a little, but we strive to make all of our selections ‘classy’.
We offer tips on proper ‘symphony etiquette’ and even some selections that are a bit light-hearted and fun aimed at a younger audience. Those pieces will be so designated, and might be a good way to introduce kids to a world of music that they might not have been exposed to or think of as old and ‘stuffy’.
A full symphony will run as long as it will. We don’t want to cut a symphony short. However, we also include some shorter pieces that we try to keep under fifteen minutes in length. You can sample each and hopefully find one or more that pleases you.
We hope that you enjoy our Sunday selections.
MEANWHILE…..IN KILLADELPHIA
How fitting that the week I revive some of my 30 Blocks of Squalor articles, we have a mass shooting in Philly. Guess what? After you watch the videos you will know why the MSM will ignore this “mass shooting” and why Slow Joe and Kackling Kamala will not be making appearances and speeches in Philly. Not a white person in sight. Philly has the strictest gun laws. And South Street used to be a cool safe place to have fun. Diversity is our strength.
“It Was Chaos” : 3 Dead, 11 More Injured In Philadelphia Mass Shooting
Chaos erupted on the streets of Philadelphia late Saturday night when gunmen unleashed a barrage of bullets into a crowd, hitting 14 people, including three who died, reported NBC10.
Philadelphia Police say the incident occurred just before midnight when multiple shooters fired into a crowd on South Street between 2nd and 3rd streets. Two men and a woman were killed, and eleven others were injured.
“There were hundreds of individuals just enjoying South Street, as they do every weekend, when this shooting broke out,” Philadelphia Police Department Inspector D.F. Pace said.
Pace said one officer was “within 10 to 15 yards of the shooter, watching this person shoot into the crowd” when he returned fire. Two guns were recovered at the scene, and one had an extended magazine.
Someone’s Nest camera caught the shooting as it unfolded.
WATCH: A Nest camera from Downtown Charleston captured last night’s shooting on South Street. Numerous people can be seen walking around before dozens of shots ring out for roughly 50 seconds. People can be seen running and heard screaming. @WCBD pic.twitter.com/Sjk4B16jxh
