Jan 30: A cold morning…not as cold as our friends to the north dealing with a blizzard…but we have our own lizards to worry about.

Did you really think with the coldest temperatures in over a decade we would not warn you about falling Iguanas? #Iguanas #flwx pic.twitter.com/ornSpetd6a

A North Carolina double-amputee in need of a kidney transplant vowed that he would rather die than submit to the government tyranny of vaccine requirements even though it’s not a government policy to require transplant patients to have the coronavirus vaccine, WSOC ABC-9 in Charlotte reports.

Chad Carswell gets dialysis three times each week because his kidneys are only operating at 4% efficiency.  Carswell has other pre-existing health conditions–including having gone through multiple major heart surgeries–but when told he would need to get a vaccine to get a transplant at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem, Carswell said he would just die instead.

“No sir, I was born free. I will die free. I’m not changing my mind,” Carswell said. “I’ve had conversations with my family and everybody who is close to me and they know where I stand and there will not be a situation that occurs where I’ll change my mind on this topic.”

It’s fairly shocking in real courtrooms to have that Perry Mason moment when a suspect breaks down on the stand and confesses to the crime:  Yea, I did it, yer honor.  I murdered the dame.  She could’a taken anything.  Why’d she hafta go after my dog, my li’l Joey. But with Donald Trump on the stand, you don’t even have to wait until he breaks.  He’s pre-broken with all the times he’s admitted to crimes, like here.  He’s no longer trying to claim he’s trying to correct a stolen election; he’s admitting to trying to overturn the outcome of the election.

If the Vice President (Mike Pence) had “absolutely no right” to change the Presidential Election results in the Senate, despite fraud and many other irregularities, how come the Democrats and RINO Republicans, like Wacky Susan Collins, are desperately trying to pass legislation that will not allow the Vice President to change the results of the election? Actually, what they are saying, is that Mike Pence did have the right to change the outcome, and they now want to take that right away.  Unfortunately, he didn’t exercise that power, he could have overturned the Election!

Spotify has announced it will run warnings before its podcasts and shows that will discuss the coronavirus on air as a response to the backlash the company received for comments by host Joe Rogan questioning the effectiveness of vaccines, Politico reports.

Rogan, who is exclusively distributed through Spotify in a $100 million deal signed in 2021, has raised questions about the ability and willingness of the streaming service to check the pandemic disinformation coming from of its most popular hosts.

Musician Neil Young has pulled his music catalog from the company, and he was soon joined by Nils Lofgren and Joni Mitchell, who insisted Spotify remove their music from its offerings.

“Lindsey Graham has done nothing about J6. He didn’t care about election fraud in the 2020 election, even though thousands of Americans signed affidavits risking jail if they perjure themselves in court saying they witnessed election fraud. He refused to object on J6 to Joe Biden’s electoral college votes. He doesn’t care about our justice system being completely violated by Democrats in their political war against Republicans and President Trump.”

“Pretrial J6 defendants are Americans who are being held in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day while rotting away in prison and they haven’t even seen a day in court. Americans are being treated worst [sic] than Islamic terrorists at Gitmo and Lindsey Graham doesn’t care. He doesn’t care about their due process rights. He doesn’t care that they haven’t seen their families and are denied seeing their attorneys most of the time. He doesn’t care that these pretrial J6 defendants are denied hair cuts, shaving, chapel, and the most basic of human rights. He doesn’t care that they are abused in the DC jail because they are white, male, and voted for the very President that he supposedly supports” and blah blah blah says Marjorie Taylor Greene on Telegram.

There is no such thing as safe ice. Be #FDNYSmart, never walk on frozen water. See more tips at https://t.co/NpwdRdlElY pic.twitter.com/5QiR9hFL2o

The New York City Fire Department’s propaganda division is at it again, this time scaring Americans away from enjoying a walk out on to a semi-frozen pond as countless generations have done before. They must be having Fauci write their safety tips nowadays. Interesting how they have a fire department pushing this garbage as if they’re suddenly ice experts too.

Listen to the science, people. If you don’t hear it telling you not to walk out on to a frozen pond when it’s 49 degrees and rainy outside, then go ahead and walk out on to the pond. Your body, your choice. Don’t listen to some glorified hall monitors tell you how to live your life.

Nine people were killed in a six-car traffic accident in North Las Vegas Saturday night after a car traveling at high speed ran through a red light and triggered the multi-vehicle pile-up in a residential area of the city, KTNV ABC-13 Las Vegas reports.

Two people in a Dodge Charger were driving northbound in a neighborhood around 3 p.m. local time near some schools when it ran the red light near West Cheyenne Avenue and Commerce Street.  The car slammed into multiple cars.

Nine people were declared dead at the scene, and one was transported to a local hospital in critical condition.  A child was reportedly among the dead.

Canadian police are investigating a number of the people who participated in yesterday’s protest against the nation’s public health mandates to combat the coronavirus after some of the protesters urinated on the National War Memorial and danced on the grave of the unknown soldier, the Associated Press reports. Thousands of protesters took to the streets in Ottawa Saturday, with many of them returning on Sunday morning. Truckers from around the country reportedly attended the protest, blocking some of the streets in the Canadian capital.

Reports from around the city allege protest participants urinated on the National War Memorial and danced on the grave of the unknown soldier, located in downtown Ottawa. A group that runs a soup kitchen for the homeless said protesters came into the facility and berated workers and guests. Protesters also desecrated a memorial to Canadian national hero Terry Fox, a cancer patient who lost a leg but raised funds for research and awareness of the fight against cancer by running across the country. Protesters placed an upside-down Canadian flag over his statue. The Terry Fox Foundation that said “Terry believed in science and gave his life to help others.”

Burke County, North Carolina based patriot Chad Carswell told a WSOC reporter he “will die free” after Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem deemed him ineligible for a kidney transplant over his refusal to be vaccinated for COVID-19. “I was born free. I will die free. I’m not changing my mind. I’ve had conversations with my family and everybody who is close to me and they know where I stand and there will not be a situation that occurs where I’ll change my mind on this topic,” Carswell told WSOC’s Dave Flaherty, adding that his kidney is only operating at about 4%.

Quite a lot of hay has been made over Trump’s Saturday night Texas rally pledge to pardon the MAGA terrorists who attacked the Capitol on January 6, 2021. “We will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly,” said Trump, using his tried-and-true “say outrageous shit to own the libs and get media attention” move, much to the delight of his scumbag fans at the rally.

The thing is, as we’ve pointed out before, 58 of the suspects had been arrested and charged between January 6th and January 19th, 2021, while dozens, maybe even hundreds, more had been identified during that period, all of whom could have been granted presidential pardons, but were not. While it is generally thought that presidential pardons could only apply to persons already convicted of crimes and known to the Department of Justice, this has not actually been tested in court yet and there are plenty of examples of pardons being effected before conviction.

Despite Ohio Republican Senate candidate JD Vance’s campaign claiming they moved the Sunday “meet and greet” event with white nationalist Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene due to high demand, management at the Landing Event Center in suburban Cincinnati says they actually canceled when they found out Greene would be there, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Though the Landing publicly toed the Vance campaign’s line in a Facebook post, saying “Due to the tremendous interest in the JD Vance presentation that was scheduled to take place here this Sunday, it has been relocated to the Marriott NE located in Deerfield Twp. We appreciate everyone’s interest and concerns,” general manager Jodi Taylor did not mention RSVPs when she spoke to the Enquirer. “We just chose to respect it was a very emotional topic. People are passionate about what they believe. We were wrapping our heads around what was going on. We didn’t know there would be a guest,” Taylor told the Enquirer, adding “It doesn’t matter what we do. We have both sides upset.” The “meet-and-greet” marks the first joint public appearance of the currently second-place Vance and the unfaithful wife since her big endorsement.

A male employee at the Sonic location on the 5100 block of W 34th St in Houston is lucky to be alive after a tank of acetylene in his trunk suddenly exploded just as he was leaving work at the fast food joint on Friday night, FOX 26 Houston reports without explaining why the fuck a fast food worker had a tank of a highly volatile fuel in his car. The unidentified employee had gotten behind the wheel to head home from work at approximately 11:15 Friday night when he smelled gas in his car and immediately stepped out, upon which the tank exploded, sending shrapnel flying hundreds of feet. The man was hospitalized in serious condition, says the report, which again makes no attempt to explain why in God’s name this idiot had acetylene in his trunk.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced Saturday that the UK is looking at making a major military deployment across Europe amid the escalating Ukraine crisis, Reuters reports. “This package would send a clear message to the Kremlin – we will not tolerate their destabilising activity, and we will always stand with our NATO allies in the face of Russian hostility. I have ordered our Armed Forces to prepare to deploy across Europe next week, ensuring we are able to support our NATO allies,” said Johnson in a statement.

Nine people are hospitalized–with seven in critical condition–after some people passed out and others felt a burning in their throats at a Marysville, Ohio hotel Saturday, Reuters reports.

Police received a number of calls from people at the Hampton Inn saying they felt ill or felt a burning sensation in their throat.  One call said a two-year-old girl was unconscious by the pool.  The hotel was evacuated and firefighters were using industrial fans to clear out areas of the building.

“And another thing we’ll do and so many people have been asking about it:  If I run and I win, we will treat those people fairly.  We will treat them fairly,” losing 2020 candidate Donald Trump declares.  “And if it requires pardons we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly.”

In its latest round of ballistic missile tests, North Korea launched what is believed to be its longest range missile to date based on data collected by Japanese and other intelligence agencies, the Associated Press reports.

The missile traveled more than 800 kilometers, suggesting to Japanese observers that the missile was the most powerful weapon the North Koreans have tested since a missile test in 2017 that concerned authorities that the country could reach the West Coast of the United States.

“North Korea is launching a frenzy of missiles before the start of the Beijing Olympics, mostly as military modernization efforts. Pyongyang also wants to boost national pride as it gears up to celebrate political anniversaries in the context of economic struggles,” said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ewha University in Seoul.

A 42-year-old woman who once lived in Kansas has been charged by federal authorities with providing material support to the Islamic State after she was returned to the United States, Politico reports.

Allison Fluke-Ekren was the subject of a sealed indictment filed in 2019, and that indictment was opened after Fluke-Ekren was returned to the United States after spending neary the last decade in Syria.  She had moved to Syria after living in Egypt for a number of years and frequently returning to the US.

“Fluke-Ekren has been a fervent believer in the radical terrorist ideology of ISIS for many years, having traveled to Syria to commit or support violent jihad. Fluke-Ekren translated her extremist beliefs into action by serving as the appointed leader and organizer of an ISIS military battalion, directly training women and children in the use of AK-47 assault rifles, grenades, and suicide belts to support the Islamic State’s murderous aims,” prosecutors alleged in court filings.

A caravan of Nazi domestic terrorist truckers have laid siege to the Canadian city of Ottawa. The Trump supporting terrorists, seen waving Nazi flags, are protesting a pandemic control measure that requires cross-border truckers to be vaccinated against Covid19. It is possible that the truckers were radicalized by hundreds of hours spent listening to right-wing radio hosts on Satellite radio stations like SiriusXMPatriot, which broadcasts propaganda channels such as the Sean Hannity Radio show and Breitbart news.
