“U.S. traffic deaths soar to highest total in 16 years” (but don’t expect the government, or media, to tell us WHY)

Drivers worldwide have been “suffering medical episodes” that turn them, and their vehicles, into deadly weapons

“2019 U.S. Traffic Deaths Lowest Since 2014, but 2020 Numbers Aren’t Looking Good,” reported Car & Driver on October 1, 2020. “In the COVID-19 era, fatal accident percentages are up this year despite the smaller number of vehicles on the road, NHTSA’s latest data shows.”

Back then I sent that piece out to my list-serve, with this prefatory bit:

Here’s a typically myopic article in Car and Driver—typical not of Car and Driver, but of the West’s entire “news” juggernaut—about the rise in US traffic deaths this year. Note the “reasons” given by the NHTSA, according to the magazine:

“NHTSA said the reasons include more risky behavior, like an increase in speeding and a lower rate of seatbelt use, as well as a higher likelihood of drugs or alcohol being involved.”

Well, yeah; but why would folks be driving more recklessly, and likelier to drink and/or get high? Could, say, the lockdowns, and the crash of the economy, have anything to do with it?

And—the dog that isn’t barking here—what about the face masks worn, insanely, by so many drivers? You’ve got a lot of people driving masked, including many old people; so why assume it couldn’t possibly have anything to do with this grim trend? People ran a piece last summer on a masked driver in New Jersey who passed out at the wheel, and drove into a tree. It was a “human interest” story in People, and that’s all. It should have sparked some journalistic interest in the likelihood that masking at the wheel has had disastrous consequences; but that’s unlikely with the sort of “journalism” practiced in the USA, and not just here.

The NJ police department finding that the driver had been masked, and lost consciousness because of it, was pressured into issuing a statement that they were not qualified to say so, that he could have passed out for all sorts of reasons. That tells you how repressive this mask propaganda is; and how our “journalists”have been so addled by it that they can’t even imagine that this rise in traffic deaths could be related to the psychopathic measures used to “keep us safe.”

Bill Gates Lays Out Plan for Global Takeover

Via Mercola

Story at-a-glance

The World Health Organization is attempting to seize control over global pandemic monitoring and response and, ultimately, all health care decisions
Bill Gates intends to play a key part in this takeover. He’s building a pandemic response team for the WHO, dubbed the “Global Epidemic Response & Mobilization” or GERM Team, which will have the authority to monitor nations and make pandemic response decisions, such as when to suspend civil liberties to prevent spread of an illness
The globalist cabal plans to seize control through biosecurity governance, and they’re attempting to do this using two different avenues. If we fail to fight off both attacks, we’ll end up under totalitarian governance
The first attack comes in the form of amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR), which are currently being voted on by the World Health Assembly. These amendments will strip member nations of their sovereignty and give the WHO unprecedented power to restrict your medical freedoms and civil liberties in the name of biosecurity. Get involved and urge your nation’s leaders to reject the amendments if passed. Unless rejected, they will become binding law in November 2022
The second attack comes through a new international pandemic treaty with the WHO. They intend to eliminate individualized medicine and provide blanket rulings for how a given threat is to be addressed, and this can only result in needless suffering — not to mention the loss of individual freedom

In “The Corbett Report” above,¹ independent journalist James Corbett reviews the contents of Bill Gates’ book, “How to Prevent the Next Pandemic.”

“It’s every bit as infuriating, nauseating, ridiculous, laughable and risible as you would expect,” he says. “This is a ridiculous book … There’s certainly nothing of medical or scientific value in here … It’s a baffling book even from a propagandistic perspective …

Gates’ goal in writing the book is to disarm the public and prepare us to accept the agenda that Gates and his allies would like to impose on the world. Ultimately, what this is about is drumming up general public support — or at least general public understanding — of the unfolding biosecurity agenda.”

Another reviewer of Gates’ book, economist Jeffrey Tucker, offered similarly negative feedback:²
