“It’s Like War Numbers”: Cleveland Endures Worst Homicide Rate in Recent History in 2020

CLEVELAND, Ohio — A weak economy, high unemployment rates, failing schools, and high child poverty levels all plagued Cleveland in 1982. Those same issues remain in 2020, laid barer by the coronavirus pandemic that limited access to social services and increased social isolation that devastated people’s mental health.

The two years are linked because they represent the worst two years in recent history for deadly violence in Cleveland. The city hit 185 homicides on Dec. 20, the most in a single year since 1982 when the city hit 195 homicides and when nearly 200,000 more people called the city home.

After 3 Years of Progress, Chicago’s Murder Tally Skyrockets in 2020

An 8-year-old girl, fatally shot while riding in a car with family members in Canaryville.

A popular South Side rapper, killed in a daylight shooting along the city’s ritziest shopping corridor.

A mother of two, stabbed to death while at work at a Wicker Park Walgreens store.

A well-known and influential gang member, shot and killed while driving in a part of Humboldt Park that’s long been a hotbed for gang conflicts and open-air drug markets.

After three consecutive years of declining violence, Chicago’s murder tally soared in 2020 as city leaders — including a new Chicago police superintendent — were forced to confront widespread civil unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Anti-Mask Flash Mobs Begin to Show Up in Stores Around the Country, Loudly Encouraging Freedom

There’s been a growing movement that’s just starting to get some attention. But it’s spreading in various areas throughout the country, and it’s not hard to understand why.

That’s the anti-mask flash mob.

As more and more news comes out that asymptomatic spread is basically zero and the science behind the efficacy of masks is questionable, more and more people are saying enough: open everything up and stop with the masks and restrictions.

The flash mobs go on masse to a store, speak against wearing masks and then go out again.

This one involved immigrants from Communist China who have some experience with oppressive government regulations and were urging others not to go along with it.

Here’s another one that’s in Los Angeles in the Erewhon Market, where the 50 mask-less protesters rushed in and chanted to “Open up LA!”

‘Appalling’: KC Suffers Deadliest Year Ever With 180 Killings, 625 Nonfatal Shootings

At age 53, Mary Freeman has lost three of her six children in Kansas City.

Her first son, Derrick Freeman, died in 2016 of unknown causes, police said. He had been shot in the face in 2009, leaving him quadriplegic. An autopsy couldn’t determine whether the injuries that altered his body were what caused his heart to stop.

Just as the pain of Derrick’s death — Freeman considers it a homicide to this day — was beginning to subside, her son Roy Bausby, 21, and her daughter Gabrial Freeman, 20, were gunned down in broad daylight in front of their apartment in south Kansas City. It was the week before Christmas.

Birmingham Ends 2020 With City’s Most Homicides in 25 Years

The number of homicides in the city of Birmingham and throughout Jefferson County jumped in 2020, with the city seeing the highest number of killings in 25 years.

Birmingham ended the year with 122 homicides. Of those, 15 were deemed justifiable and one accidental and therefore are not deemed criminal. The department only has to submit criminal homicides — 106 — to the FBI for its year-end tally.

In a city with a population estimated at roughly 209,000, that was almost six murders per every 10,000 residents.

Cattle Rancher Warns About the Meat You’re Buying

In the video above, American cattle rancher Shad Sullivan from North Texas is interviewed by host Patrick Bet-David about the future of the cattle and meat industry. In April 2020, Sullivan posted a YouTube video1 discussing how U.S. farmers are being forced to dump the food supply — plowing under vegetable crops, euthanizing millions of chickens, aborting sows and burying feeder pigs, and dumping milk by the hundreds of thousands of gallons.

Sullivan says officials from the U.S. Department of Agriculture are also preparing farmers to depopulate cattle that are ready to harvest due to a “bottleneck created by the effects of COVID and the logistics therein.” Yet, while preparing U.S. cattle ranchers to cull their herds, the U.S. is actively importing beef from other countries.

The first shipment of beef from Namibia, for instance, arrived in the U.S. in April 2020, prompting Sullivan to ask, “Am I the only one that sees a problem in this? … We are importing beef from other countries. Beef that is less regulated than our beef, less safe, not as high-quality of product, and yet, it’s happening. At the same time, they’re preparing for us to euthanize our harvests.”2 USDA Email Told Farmers It Would Assist in Depopulation

Sullivan received an email from the USDA in April 2020, stating that it would help farmers to find alternative markets for their harvests, and if that couldn’t be done, state veterinarians and government officials would assist with culls, or depopulation, of the animals…

Due to the allowance of acquisitions and mergers, four companies — Tyson, Cargill, JBS and National Beef, which is owned by Marfrig Global Foods — control the majority of the U.S. beef supply. These companies are multinational corporations that act as processors and distributors of beef. Decades ago, according to Sullivan, there may have been 800 different processors of beef, where now there are only four.

By taking away all competition, they’ve taken control of the entire industry. In April 2019, Tyson, Cargill, JBS and National Beef were accused of violating federal antitrust law by colluding to drive down the price of cattle they bought from ranchers while boosting retail prices, in order to boost profits.6

According to the lawsuit, which was filed by the Ranchers Cattlemen Action Legal Fund United Stockgrowers of America (R-CALF), the companies “engaged in tactics — including purchasing fewer cattle than a competitive market would otherwise demand and running their processing plants at less than available capacity” — that had the end result of creating surpluses in the cattle market but shortages in the wholesale beef market.7

“There’s an oligarchy of power and control at the top of the chain,” Sullivan said, “and that trickles down to you … They are able to eliminate competition in the United States while bringing in cheaper, lower quality meat from other countries.” In 2020, the U.S. imported beef from at least 19 countries, including Nicaragua, Japan, Croatia, Lithuania and Chile.

COVID “Mutation” Stories Show That the Lockdowns Are Designed to Last Forever

In my article ‘Waves Of Mutilation: Medical Tyranny And The Cashless Society’, I dismantled Lichfield’s arguments and outlined why the controls the establishment is attempting to put in place have been planned far in advance. The so-called “great reset” and “Fourth Industrial Revolution” has been in development since at least 2014 when the terms were first being injected into the mainstream economic media. The ideas of a cashless society, the “sharing economy”, biometric mass surveillance, social credit scores, etc, have all been part of the globalist agenda for decades. The coronavirus is merely a useful crisis for them to exploit as a rationale for the draconian measures they have always wanted.

The plan was so predictable that I even pointed out at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak that lockdowns would not end even if a working vaccination was developed because all they have to do is declare that a “new mutation” of the virus has been found which is resistant to existing treatments. Or, they could engineer a whole new virus and release it into the population in order to keep the Reset machine rolling forward.

Not surprisingly, just as news hit the wires that the barely tested and highly suspect Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were being released to the public, reports have begun to trickle in of “more infectious” Covid mutations found in places like the UK, India, and South Africa.

I’m not sure how much more transparent the elites can get.

Take the Pfizer vaccine now and you might receive an immunity passport for a few months, and then it will become void with every new mutation of the virus. So, you must then submit to ENDLESS vaccinations, many of them untested and potentially hazardous. As the former VP of Pfizer and other medical professionals have warned, these vaccines are like Russian Roulette and could cause an autoimmune response that leads to sterility or other harmful reactions.

The vaccines themselves are a conveniently short-lived solution even if they do work. They require multiple doses over the course of a month, and renewed vaccinations are to take place possibly every few months. Basically, it never ends. With the mutations and limited antibodies from the vaccines, the elites could keep the lockdowns and mandates in place for many years to come.

The World Health Organization is making it clear that vaccination will not necessarily be considered a solution to viral spread. Meaning, even if you are vaccinated you will still be considered a potential carrier and transmitter of Covid, therefore the lockdowns and mask mandates will not stop. This begs the question — What’s the point of the vaccine?…

Again, I will ask the question that the mainstream refuses to ask:

Why is 99% of the population being told they must sacrifice their jobs, their businesses, and their liberties in the name of making less than 1% of the population feel safer? Why not ask the 0.26% of the people under threat from the virus to volunteer to stay home so that the rest of us can get on with normal life? Why are we doing the opposite of what makes the most sense?

The answer is that the pandemic response is about dominance, not public health. People are starting to recognize this, and they are about to revolt.

So, the next logical step for the establishment if they really want to institute their reset agenda is to introduce a new threat. Meaning, they need a “mutation” of the virus or a completely new virus in order to create the kind of fear that is required to manipulate the public into going along with further control.

Data Scientists Testify to GA Senate Panel That Thousands of Votes Removed From Trump, Some Switched to Biden

A team of data scientists testified before the state Senate in Georgia this week.

What they said should be heard by everyone and may be the ticket to get past the fog of the media and Democrats trying to simply ignore fraud and irregularities in the election. Because what they found is not possible without fraud/big problems in the count.

Data scientists including Lynda McLaughlin, Justin Mealey and David Lobue told the Seante Judiciary Committee what their analysis found — that 17,650 votes had been changed from President Donald Trump to Joe Biden.

The company later reinstated the account, saying the removal was made in error — but the shut down came just days before the election in a hotly-contested race.

The page was wrongly shut down for infringing Facebook’s “Unacceptable Business Practices Policy.”

Stop the Steal

Here are many examples of voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. Presidential election that, as far as I’m aware, have not been debunked. Updated for January 1, 2021.

The mainstream media continues to insist that there is “no evidence” of voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. Presidential election.

They are lying.

Here are many examples of voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. Presidential election that, as far as I’m aware, have not been debunked.

Russell James Ramsland, Jr. audited 22 Dominion voting machines that were used in Antrim County, Michigan.

This is his conclusion from his report on his audit:

“We conclude that the Dominion Voting System is intentionally and purposefully designed with inherent errors to create systemic fraud and influence election results. The system intentionally generates an enormously high number of ballot errors. The electronic ballots are then transferred for adjudication. The intentional errors lead to bulk adjudication of ballots with no oversight, no transparency, and no audit trail. This leads to voter or election fraud. Based on our study, we conclude that The Dominion Voting System should not be used in Michigan. We further conclude that the results of Antrim County should not have been certified.”

The Treasonous Reasons Behind the Theft of Our 2020 Election

As we have seen, the multi-faceted so-called, “Covid-19 pandemic” was the concocted crisis which resulted in the left, communists, socialists, progressives, democrats, and the powers above them, to have the opportunity to steal the 2020 Presidential Election.

At the very outset, this so-called crisis resulted in the excuse for rule changes allowing mail-in ballots. This resulted in an untold number of fraudulent ballots being collected and submitted into the vote tallying process at various locations and intervals as needed to overturn the Trump landslide.

All was planned and coordinated. Many of us have observed and noted that at a certain point in the vote tallying process on the night of Nov. 3rd, several states stopped counting votes at almost the same time. This had to have been preplanned and coordinated from a central command position. Thissuggests the possibility as well as the probability that the theft of the election did not come about because of the existence of the pandemic, but rather, the pandemic was concocted for the purpose of stealing the election.

There is much evidence which suggests that there were many other objectives that were sought. The forced submission to vaccination in order to work and travel is in the plan,and that is only a starter. Plans are being made the world over to place “non-vaxers,” those who refuse to be vaccinated, in camps. In fact, one writer, Rob Pue, in an article, “The ‘Dark Winter’ is at the Door,” published by News with Views states that it is already happening in Canada. Also, in addition, there were supposed to be 20,000 Chinese Communist troops in Canada and for training with Canadian troops, but it was cancelled by their Defense Minister…

According to an article in NaturalNews.com, the Canadian government has published a bid request for “programmable hydraulic guillotines needed in support of Canada’s response to Covid-19” Now, if this report is true it suggests some very scary times are in the future; what we might call — shadows of the French Revolution, in which 25,000 French citizens lost their heads by guillotine for allegedly violating a public safety law.

Also, if the report was true that Chinese troops were to be Canada, then here’s something which could be a clue concerning why they are there. During the Obama Administration, he made a deal with Canada for them to supply a military back-up to the U.S. in case there was an uprising of its citizens against what was planned. This could be what Canada is preparing for by making a deal with China.

We don’t know what was planned, but Obama did, and evidently, he reasoned that the American people might not stand for what he was up to. So, he was preparing for the possibility and maybe even the probability of an uprising of the American people against whatever plans that were on the table, which could likely be implemented against the people.

It was Obama who stated that, he was going to “fundamentally transform America,” and everything he initiated was to that end which is currently referred to as “The Great Reset.” I heartily recommend reading this article. Everyone needs to prepare themselves and their family for the advent of this anti-God, anti-human thing that is coming down the pike with no one to stop it.

Watch: COVID Police Raid Canadian Home, Violently Arrest Occupants After Neighbor Tattles Over ‘Illegal’ Gathering of 6 People

A video circulating on social media shows police in Canada’s Quebec province raiding a home and arresting at least two people, reportedly after a neighbor told authorities they were gathering in violation of Covid-19 rules.

The incident reportedly occurred at a home in Gatineau, just across the Ottawa River from Canada’s capital city, on Thursday. The New Year’s Eve gathering of six people included individuals from outside the home, making it a violation of Quebec’s ban on such get-togethers.

The video, which was circulating on Saturday, begins with police pulling a man out of the doorway of the house as an elderly person and a woman try to hold him inside the dwelling from behind. The man is wrestled to the ground by multiple officers outside, where he’s pinned face down in the snow and handcuffed. A woman also can be seen outside, handcuffed and restrained from behind by officers.

Brexhausted! Four Years of Brexit Blunders, Part Two: Night of the Living Deal

Britain left the European Union in name in January 2020, but remained subject to the EU, its judges, and its migration regime through a so-called “transition” period. It left in a real sense at 11 pm on December 31st — according to supporters of Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s exit deal, at least. But how did the country get here?

This is part two of a three-part series.

MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik — 02nd January, 2021) Arson rates in France overnight January 1 went 41 percent down year-on-year, with only 861 cars set on fireon the New Year’s night this year, French broadcaster Europe 1 reported on Saturday.

The French government reportedly mobilized at least 100,000 police officers and gendarmes on the New Year’s night to protect law and order, as well as monitor the implementation of the coronavirus-related curfew.

According to the report, the French Ministry of the Interior omitted the figures on car arson from its report on security environment on New Year’s night because Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin had asked the regional law enforcement authorities to not disclose the arson statistics on the local level in order to “avoid any elements of competition.

Twitter Blocks Medical Journal After it Published a Positive Study on Ivermectin Treatment for Coronavirus

Twitter blocked an entire medical journal’s website for publishing one study proving the efficacy of Ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19. The antiparasitic drug has shown promise as a preventative measure for the coronavirus.

Karl Denninger, known on Twitter as Tickerguy, posted a link to a study published in the European Journal of Medical and Health Sciences that concluded that Ivermectin could be effective as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PreP) against COVID-19. Only 6.9% of the study participants tested positive for the virus after taking Ivermectin. On the other hand, 73.3% of those who did not take the drug tested positive.

UK: Delingpole: BoJo Tweets Praise for the Great Reset. Strap in Everyone, 2021 is Going to be a Wild Ride

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has dashed hopes that 2021 will be any better than 2020 by tweeting his support of the Great Reset.

‘Build back better’ is, as Johnson is perfectly well aware, the slogan of the World Economic Forum’s deeply sinister Fourth Industrial Revolution — aka ‘the Great Reset’ — whose aims include the deliberate crashing of the world economy, the crushing and destruction of small businesses, and the creation of a new cash-free society in which no one (save the technocratic elite) owns private property.

Unfortunately for Johnson, people have started wising up to what Build Back Better actually means.

Here are some of the comments which greeted his New Year message:

UK: Police Break Up 100-Strong Illegal New Year’s Eve Rave Featuring a Fire Dancer at £4m Home in England’s Worst COVID Hotspot

An illegal New Year’s Eve party attended by 100 people was held at a £4million home near Teddy Sheringham’s house in England’s worst Covid-19 hotspot.

The rave, which was broken up by police, took place at a luxury property called Knoll House in the upmarket hamlet of Sewardstonebury in Epping Forest, Essex.

Neighbours believe that new tenants moved into the large detached house around a month ago, although it is unclear who held the event.

A video posted to Twitter, claiming to be shot at the party, showed multiple young adults dancing and partying inside a room.

The event featured balloons, sparklers, a DJ, and a fire dancer entertaining guests outside with alcohol served in large ice buckets by a waiter in a bow tie.

The woman organiser of the party was given a £10,000 fixed penalty notice by Essex Police for breaking strict anti-coronavirus rules.

Verhofstadt: Brits Chose Brexit to Affirm Their Right to be Stupid, Next Gen Will Rejoin EU

Leading European Union parliamentarian Guy Verhofstadt says Britons backed Brexit to affirm their right to be stupid, and that the country’s youth will take it back into the EU.

The former Belgian prime minister, quoting 19th-century Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky, began his diatribe in the anti-Brexit The New European newspaper by summing up Brexit as a product of people’s wish to “have the right to desire what is… extremely stupid” and not “only what is intelligent” — an explanation for the Leave vote which is perhaps unlikely to persuade Brexiteers that EU loyalists do not hold their intelligence in contempt.

India: Don’t Marry Mushrik Till They Embrace Islam, Believers Superior to Idolators: Zakir Naik Rants to a Hindu Woman Who Converted

Radical Islamist preacher Zakir Naik, known for harbouring medievalist views and courting controversies, is yet in the news for spewing venom against non-Muslims, particularly Hindus, and preaching the extremist ideology of Islamic supremacism.

In a video released on the official YouTube channel of Naik earlier this month, the rabid Muslim cleric was seen ranting against the Mushriks (non-believers) and stating that Muslim men and women are far superior to them.

Naik was responding to a question raised by a girl who had allegedly converted from Hinduism to Islam three years back and intended to remain with Islam for the rest of her life. Stating that it is hard for her in this society to marry a Muslim man, the girl asked the Islamic preacher whether it is compulsory for her to marry a Muslim man or if she can marry a Hindu man as well.

India: Muslim Officials Denounce ‘Love Jihad’ Law as ‘Discriminatory’ To Muslims

Even though the law does not specify Muslims, it is well known that there have been frequent occurrences of Muslims raping, forcibly converting, and forcibly marrying Christian and Hindu girls; this was what made the “Love jihad” law necessary.

But it is “discriminatory,” according to the retired Muslim Indian officials, to seek protection for infidel girls being abused. How “Islamophobic” of India to protect their infidel women! After all, they are infidels and they are women — two strikes against them in Islam, as both are deemedinferior.

“Retired Indian Officials Denounce ‘Love Jihad’ Law in Open Letter,” by John Hayward, Breitbart, December 30, 2020.

UK: Judges Throw Out Conviction of ‘Misgendering’ During Online Discussion

Citing society’s need for freedom of speech, two judges in the United Kingdom have reversed a conviction for a mother of two who was charged with calling a man who lives as a woman a “man.”

A report from the Christian Institute says Kate Scottow has had her conviction, under the 2003 Communications Act, overturned.

She had been ordered to undergo a two-year conditional discharge and to pay 1,000 pounds in compensation, but the Court of Appeal decision reversed that.

Lord Justice Bean and Mr. Justice Warby ruled that free speech includes “the right to offend” and pointed out that, “Freedom only to speak inoffensively is not worth having.”

  1. “Radical Islamist preacher Zakir Naik, known for harbouring medievalist views…”
    Translation needed:
    Observant muslim preacher Zakir Naik, known for diligently obeying Islam’s source texts.

  2. The torching of cars.
    It is very easy, without thinking much about it, to regard the torching of cars in France as something that just happens in France and Germany. Beware. Car-burning is a very easy stunt to pull: any teenager can do it, likewise throwing stones through Church windows. The notion that “it wouldn’t happen here” is dangerously misplaced. The practice is almost certain to be adopted by culture-enrichers in USA and other Western countries as yet not afflicted. The only hope is that USA’s armed citizens will discourage it.

    • Blacks in Detroit set cars and rundown houses on fire. they also shoot guns into the air. They do the same in los Angeles. those falling bullets have killed some people.
