Some complaints were made that the elections in The United States were stolen. Well, this can mean many things. For instance ballot fraud (such as ballot stuffing, gerrymandering, letting dead people vote, etc.). But it can also be manipulation and indoctrination. As now becomes clear, a massive voter manipulation campaign was executed. Times magazine writes (emphasis by EN):

That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream – a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it. And they believe the public needs to understand the system’s fragility in order to ensure that democracy in America endures.

The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That
                  Saved the 2020 Election "The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election" (New York Times). They were rigging the election, but do not want to call it rigging the election. They want to call it saving the democracy, which then is defined as 'voters voting how we want them to vote'. They all suffer from Trump-derangement syndrome.

The Senate in teh United States decided that previous presidents, no longer in office, could indeed be impeached. The impeachment fizzled, and President Trump is teh only president to have been impeached twice. The shadow government really hates him.
Trump impeachment 2 fizzled "Trump acquitted of inciting Capitol Hill insurrection" (Financial Times).

But teh Senate ruling does open the door to impeaching other ex presidents and members of administrations as well. As pointed out here by teh Judicial Watch Court, now Obama and Hillary Clinton can be impeached. Obama because he ordered spying on a political opponent, Clinton for destroying state document (bleaching of her e-mails). And still Joe Biden can be impeached for his quid pro quo in Ukraine, of which EN already reported before.


IMPEACH OBAMA Judicial Watch in Court over Sedition against Trump!

Where the newspapers and western political figures all complain about the arrest of Navalny in Russia, nobody mentions the political atrocities in Spain. Navalny at best has some percent of votes in Russia. But Spain jailed the politicians that actually won the election in Catalunya. That is a completely different level of dictatorship! Once again, libertarians support the seperatist movement of Catalunya. If they want to be independent and have a majority to write a new constitution, they should be able to do so!

The Workplace Mental Health Institute published this chart with 15 signs you may be in an abusive relationship. If you look at it, you see that we are all in a relationship like that with our government. All 15 points, it is uncanny. Well, they say "don't panic. Take action". Is what we must do

Abusive relationship

In the Netherlands, the economy crashed, but remarkably the number of unemployed people dropped with a rate not seen since the tallying began. We can understand this in the framework of the installed communist planned economy. Everybody has work (employment), but nobody works (produces), which is an aspect when people get paid not for their production but for their needs. Following the words of Marx, "To each according to his needs and from each according to his abilities", people will evaluate their own abilities as nil and their needs as infinite. People have a right to consumption, but no goods to consume are produced. Imminent poverty.
corona but less unemployed "Ondanks corona meer mensen aan het werk" (Dutch, In spite of corona, more people employed).

To see what our government has in store for us. As Orwell wrote in Animal Farm, a parody on communist regimes, "We are all equal but some of us are more equal than others". English government has decided that high value business travelers are exempt from quarantine
al unequal "'High-value' business travellers to be exempt from quarantine in England" (The Guardian)

In The Netherlands, a legal court has ruled that the curfew is illegal and should be stopped immediately.
curfew is illegal "Rechter zet per direct streep door avondklok: geen sprake van 'acute noodsituatie'" (Dutch, Judge cancels per immediate the curfew: no situation of 'acute emergency').
Government, feeling itself exempt from rules, already planned methods to circumvent this ruling. We may have won a battle,w e did not win teh war.

The vaccination does not seem to work. In a Dutch care home 106 inhabitants were vaccinated. Two weeks later 70 people were tested positive and 2 died. (Vaccination with a mortality rate of 2%, if we may trust pure statistics)
corona outbreak in care home after vaccination "Grote corona-uitbraak in Amersfoorts verpleeghuis: zeventig van de 106 bewoners positief getest" (Dutch. Large corona outbreak in care home in Amersfoort. Seventy of 106 inhabitants tested positive).

(Political) cartoon:

marques

Que povo é este
Que não sai à rua
Para fazer revolução
Mas que invade o Marquês
Quando um clube é campeão

What tribe is this
That does not take to the street
To start a revolution
But invades Marques square
When a club is champion?!

(Marques is the famous square in Lisbon where football fans join to celebrate the championship of their club)
