URGENT: Deaths in England surge again

The mortality crisis continues - but not in countries that did not heavily use mRNA Covid jabs

The death surge in highly mRNA vaccinated countries continues this winter.

Meanwhile, less-vaccinated countries are reporting normal or below normal mortality rates.

The latest bad news for vaccine advocates came from the British government this morning.

The Office of National Statistics said it had registered 17,381 deaths in England and Wales in the week ended Friday, January 13. That figure is about 20 percent more than the five-year average - and 30 percent more than longer-term averages - for the year’s second week.

Only about 650 of the deaths had Covid as an underlying cause, the government said, so most of the excess was not related to Covid.

The British data confirms recent trends all over Western Europe, including the Netherlands and Switzerland.

Most wealthy countries that relied on mRNA Covid shots and boosters had non-Covid deaths well above normal in 2022. The problem has worsened in recent weeks, in the wake of the fall Omicron booster campaigns.

With recent upward revisions, Europe will now probably report more excess deaths in 2022 than either 2020, before Covid vaccines were available, or 2021, before boosters began in earnest.

No connection has yet been proven.

But in contrast, South Africa and Bulgaria - two middle-income countries with much lower levels of...

Unless the managerial elite and Big Tech are brought to heel, it doesn’t matter how much better Trump polls than Biden.

A recently conducted Harvard-Harris poll pertaining to the 2024 presidential election found that former President Donald Trump has a 5-point lead over current President Joe Biden. Among registered voters across the country, Trump led Biden 46 to 41 percent. The former president also led Vice President Kamala Harris 48 to 40 percent.

The poll is clearly an exciting development for the Trump campaign — Trump himself took to Truth Social to share Breitbart’s reporting of it — and shows that people want an alternative to the Democrat Party’s milquetoast malaise.

The poll also indicated that Trump remained the preferred 2024 presidential primary candidate among Republican voters, maintaining a 10-point lead over DeSantis.

But does this really mean anything?

Substantively conservative Americans may be able to breathe a sigh of relief that their fellow Republican Party members haven’t abandoned the MAGA movement’s exercise in economic populism in an attempt to utterly forsake the heartland once more. But even if Trump does secure the Republican Party’s nomination, he’s already campaigning with one hand tied behind his back by being denied equal access to the digital public square by Big Tech in what amounts to a united display of corporate election interference.

And it’s not like Crossfire Hurricane and the Russia-collusion hoax were the only instances in which the deep state and the media collaborated to intimidate and politically undermine Trump. Shortly after the 2022 midterms — something in which Trump had invested immense political capital — it magically became clear to the people who issued the raid on Mar-a-Lago that Trump’s possession of sensitive materials wasn’t, in fact, an issue and that he likely wasn’t selling national secrets to...

Video: Dem Rep Lauds Bill To Make It Criminal For White People To Criticise Non White People

Implies Tucker Carlson could be prosecuted for speaking out against legislation

Democratic Representative Sheila Jackson Lee suggested Monday that Tucker Carlson could be the first to be prosecuted under legislation she has introduced that would see any white person talking about ‘replacement theory’ be criminalized.

As previously noted, the legislation, known as The Leading Against White Supremacy Act of 2023, would categorise any speech that is found to have “inspired” a racially motivated crime as a ‘hate crime’.

The draconian law would effectively make an individual responsible for someone else’s crime if prosecutors were able to successfully argue that their political rhetoric was a motivating factor.

The bill also targets speech that “vilifies or is otherwise directed against any non-white person or group” on social media.

If such content is “read, heard, or viewed by a person who engaged in the planning, development, preparation or perpetration of a white supremacy inspired hate crime,” even if misinterpreted, the creator of such content is guilty of conspiracy.

Appearing on perpetual race baiter Joy Reid’s show, Jackson Lee was asked “Does this bill allow potential prosecution of people like Tucker Carlson?”

“Because he is one of the people who promotes white supremacist ideology,” Reid further claimed.

“The bill has nothing to do with speech,” Lee asserted, adding “I was thinking about the pledge of allegiance and it says justice and equality for all. and I would offer to say that everyone deserves justice and equality.”

“It seems that the right wing extremists, the violent extremists, don’t want that to happen,” she further suggested.

“This does not criminalize speech,” she persisted, further claiming “It’s a crime bill, a criminal law bill, which means that intent would have to be proved that what generated out of that speech– or your intent was to provoke someone to violence and that a violent act did occur. [If] Mr. Carlson or anyone else chooses to speak in ugly terms, his speech is protected.”

Watch:

Lee also claimed that under the legislation, non-white people could also be prosecuted if they advocate for “white supremacy.”

“It also is not a guarantee that white supremacy is promoted only by people who happen to be Caucasian,” Lee said, further proclaiming that “It is a philosophy, it is a philosophy and a point of view of that [FBI] Director [Chris] Wray has spoken about now for almost three years — that white supremacy is the largest part of domestic terrorism and domestic terrorism is larger than our fears of years back of...
