Iowa Governor Signs Law Granting Unemployment to Those Fired for Not Being Vaccinated

Iowa residents who lose their jobs because they refuse COVID-19 vaccinations will get unemployment benefits under a new bill signed by Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds.

Reynolds said the new law allows Iowans “freedoms and their abilities to make healthcare decisions based on what’s best for themselves and their families,” CNN reported. She called it the “first step.”

Alabama Austal Employees Protest as Vaccine Deadline Passes

Employees protested outside Austal USA’s facility in Mobile on Friday, two days after the company’s deadline requiring workers to get the COVID-19 vaccine passed.

The military shipbuilder is among the federal defense contractors that fall under President Biden’s executive order requiring the vaccines.

“I feel like I’m being forced to take this vaccine because Austal is worried about their future,” Rusty Dyson, a former Austal employee who declined the shot, told Fox 10 in Mobile at Friday’s protest. “I think it’s sad that we live in a country where you have to choose between taking care of your family, and your convictions, your freedom.”

Almost No One Shows Up to Hunter Biden’s Vaunted Soho Art Exhibit

Hunter Biden’s art show at the storied Georges Berges art gallery in Manhattan’s SoHo district drew very low crowds this week, with few visitors showing up and even fewer willing to give their names to the press.

A handful of artists and industry professionals appeared at the Georges Berges Gallery for private viewings to see the work by President Joe Biden’s controversial son. A security guard stood outside the West Broadway venue, allowing only attendees with invitations to enter the exclusive exhibit.

Several visitors refused to give their names, and some even offered fake monikers, when questioned by the New York Post.

Arizona School Calls Police on Parents for Protesting Masking and Segregation of Children

On Friday night, Arizona parents planned on voicing their concerns about mask segregation in schools, in the parking lot of the Sweetwater School.

After planning the protest and even inviting the School Board, the group received an email from a district employee stating that the protesters needed to have an insurance policy in order to practice their first amendment right

They got an insurance policy that covers $250,000 per person but somehow this was not enough. The school wanted insurance worth $1 million per person.

When the parents and local leaders showed up for their peaceful protest, they were met by school security, who barricaded the parking lot and then called the Phoenix Police for backup.

‘Don’t Go’: DLNR Warns of Illegal Party in East Oahu Being Promoted on Social Media

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) — The state Department of Land and Natural Resources is warning the public not to attend illegal gatherings that are being promoted on social media.

DOCARE said it is monitoring posts that indicate large gatherings at the Kaiwi State Scenic Shoreline on Halloween eve.

This is around the same area DLNR broke up a massive beach gathering of over 300 people in August. Officials only cited four people in that incident.

Officials said several large gatherings are being publicized with organizers offering the sale of alcohol as well as music DJ performances.

“We want to remind anyone who is considering attending these illegal gatherings that they are contrary to state park rules and current COVID-19 emergency rules and orders. Don’t go,” said DOCARE Chief Jason Redulla.

First COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates— Now Vaccine Struggle Sessions?

Let’s take this apart just a bit. First, Walensky is cheering coercion, which is terrifying. The mandates are threatening people’s livelihoods and she sees this as a positive thing. The experts could not persuade these individuals with compelling information about the benefits of vaccines, primarily due to the schizophrenic messaging from the Biden administration on vaccine efficacy, so she believes that threatening them if they don’t comply is the best option.

Louisiana Court of Appeal Rules in Favor of Shreveport Nurses and Grants Restraining Order Against Ochsner Hospital From Firing Unvaxxed Employees

The Louisiana Second Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a temporary restraining order on Thursday against Ochsner Hospital and for all hospitals statewide from firing employees who refuse to get vaccinated while the mandate’s legality is in court.

The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeal in Shreveport ruled in favor of Shreveport nurses just a day before Ochsner Health’s Friday deadline for its 32,000 employees to get vaccinated or face termination. The hospital enacted a mandatory vaccination policy back in August where employees should be vaccinated or an exemption by Oct. 29 and refusal will result in dismissal.

New Hampshire and Pennsylvania Join Ohio, Missouri and Withdraw From the National School Boards Association Over Letter Labeling Parents ‘Domestic Terrorists’

Four states have decided to terminate their National School Boards Association membership over a letter comparing the parents to domestic terrorists.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Ohio and Missouri School Board Associations terminated their membership with the NSBA.

The New Hampshire School Boards Association is the latest to leave the NSBA after it sent a letter to Biden that begs him to use federal law enforcement agencies against parents and investigate them for “domestic terrorism and hate crime threats.” The National School Board was so outraged that parents were speaking out in defense of their children that they shamelessly urged the DOJ to use the Patriot Act, among other “enforceable actions” against them.

Parents Sue Officials Over Ruling That Their Daughter’s Death by More Than 20 Stab Wounds Was a Suicide

The parents of a woman found dead with more than 20 stab wounds are suing the medical examiner’s office over its declaration that she died by suicide, according to multiple reports.

More than 10 years since Ellen Greenberg’s boyfriend found her dead in her Philadelphia apartment, her parents have won the right to take the ruling to a trial, CBS Philly reported.

It is a first step towards potentially securing the homicide ruling her parents have long sought, according to the outlet.

Greenberg, a 27-year-old elementary school teacher, came home early from work due to a snowstorm on January 26 2011, The Washington Post reported.

At around 5.30 p.m., her boyfriend Sam Goldberg came home to find himself locked out. Eventually he broke down the door to find Greenberg’s body with a knife still in her chest, the police report noted.

The report goes on to say she was alone in the sixth-floor apartment, and that the door had been blocked by a swing bar from the inside. The knife matched the set in her knife block, which was tipped over, the report said.

The only access points were the front door and a balcony, police said. Officers say the snow outside was undisturbed.

A lack of defensive wounds, and no signs of a robbery, all led police to suspect a suicide, the report said…

Pelosi Pushes Electric Vehicle Subsidies as Husband’s Tesla Stock Soars

The financial dealings of Pelosi’s husband, Paul, came under scrutiny earlier this year when he purchased as much as $1 million of Tesla call options, one of the largest transactions of Tesla shares disclosed by a member of Congress. At the time, Republicans charged that the House speaker was cashing in on her power.

Members of Congress and their spouses are legally allowed to buy and sell stock, as long as it is not based on insider information. Members are required to disclose their transactions to the House Committee on Ethics, as Pelosi did with the Tesla transaction on Jan. 21.

Self-Ownership & the Right to Reject the Pharma-State’s Hemlock

As an objection to the Covid vaccine, nowhere is a rights-based argument being made, or an argument based on the right to question the safety of a vaccine being advanced by the covidiots who lord it over us or claim to represent us. Again, “Exemptions from employer-mandated coronavirus vaccines are in three general areas” only.

Individual sovereignty, self-ownership is nowhere mentioned.

Indeed, Republicans prattle about religious exemptions (state granted!) and natural-immunity based exemptions (state granted!)—but they have not the vaguest urge to defend the natural, God-given right of self-ownership.

‘I Just Want Choice’: B.C. Health-Care Workers Gather to Protest Vaccine Mandate

“Yesterday’s health care heroes, today’s health care risks”. That is what one of the protest signs outside of B.C. Health Minister Adrian Dix’s Vancouver constituency office read this past Tuesday. The protest was organized by former PPC candidate Kimberly Brundell, who said she recently suffered a miscarriage, and thus has seen first hand how much work our understaffed health-care workers did prior to the mandate.

“I think we are going to have a huge health-care system collapse” said Brundell. Her prediction may prove to be spot on as, as of October 26, the province dismissed over 4000 health-care workers due to their choice not to be inoculated with experimental phase 3 COVID-19 injections, or their choice not to disclose private medical information surrounding their vaccination status.

Students Gather Outside Mount Royal University to Protest Vaccine Mandate

Many of us had the opportunity to attend a university or trade school.

Going off to school and forming a sense of self is, for many, a natural transition into adulthood.

For most of us, we had the opportunity to live through that experience without fear of officially mandated segregation, loss of education or social ostracization. We also didn’t face loss of employment, extracurricular activities and even loss of friends over our private medical history. Sadly, these harsh realities now face students across Canada — all because of vaccine passports.

Vancouver Police Arrest Five in ‘Grand Finale’ of Climate Action Protests (Photos & Video)

Fourteen days of traffic disruption by a Vancouver climate action group came to an end yesterday evening as protestors blocked a major downtown intersection.

Extinction Rebellion Vancouver’s first protest in the “14 days of disruption” took place on Oct. 16 and blocked the intersection of Burrard and Georgia streets. Each subsequent day of the fourteen-day rebellion had a specific theme, with the overarching demand of ending all subsidies for fossil fuel projects. For the group’s “grand finale” protest, its members met at Nelson Park the evening of Oct. 29 before marching downtown.

With no clear destination in mind, the demonstrators wound their way through downtown before blocking the intersection at Burrard and Pacific Ave.

According to social media posts made Extinction Rebellion during the protest, rebels locked themselves into a device called a “hardblock”, in the middle of the intersection. Devices like these are intended to make it more difficult to remove protestors from a given area.

“VPD officers arrested five people tonight after protesters blocked traffic for several hours downtown,” the VPD tweeted in the hours after the protest. “Three men & two women were taken to jail after refusing multiple requests by VPD to leave the intersection.”

The arrests bring the total to 54, including one in Nanaimo.

Exposed: 2018 EU Already Planned Vaccination Certificates, Monitoring Vaccine Status, Combating Hesitancy

Over a year before the pandemic, the globalist European Union was strategizing on developing a sophisticated immunization tracking database, vaccine passports, and preemptively squashing “vaccine hesitancy.”

In 2018, a year before the coroanvirus outbreak, the European Commission released a document already addressing plans to ‘combat vaccination hesitancy,’ monitoring citizens’ vaccination status, squashing vaccine dissent, and European vaccination certificates.

The document, dated April 26, 2018, lays forth challenges that their future vaccination programs will face, from distrust, fear of vaccine side effects, “reducing vaccine reluctance” to “disinformation” campaigns. The EU even addresses issues that might arise during “innovative” vaccine’s pre-licensing phase. This 2018 globalist document followed the former European Union President, Jean-Claude Juncker’s call for action, in his 2017 State of the Union address, “for all Member States to support national vaccination efforts.”

Germany: Young Islamists Caught Rehearsing Terrorist Attack in a Forest Near Aachen

Police in the German federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia broke up an Islamist cell that was preparing a terrorist attack with axes and knives. On Thursday, 350 police officers and members of a counterterrorism unit raided and searched the apartments of five suspected young men in the district of Düren.

The Scale of Poland’s March of Independence is What Annoys the Left the Most

This has become an annual ritual: as the annual March of Independence on Nov. 11 approaches to commemorate Poland regaining independence in 1918, the left is trying to block it in court. Beautiful slogans about freedom, democracy, tolerance, and diversity turn out to be merely a political weapon, not a cohesive or consistent approach.

Formally, Warsaw’s authorities and its allies claim that they do not want “fascist” symbols to be displayed on the capital’s streets — but this is an empty accusation. Even if such symbols are shown, 99 percent of march participants are ordinary Poles who want to show their patriotism through attendance. This is clear for anyone interested in reality.

In my opinion, the desperation with which Warsaw’s authorities and a large part of the opposition (especially from under the Civic Platform banner) are fighting the March of Independence also stems from non-ideological sources. It is pure envy connected with the fact that the largest Polish annual public manifestation has a right-wing and patriotic tone.

Vaclav Klaus: The Winners of Czechia’s Election Lack Courage, Will Submit to Harmful EU Agenda

The Czech Republic is once again at a key crossroad as an agenda aimed against families, nation states and even human nature itself marches on, said former President Vaclav Klaus in his speech at Prague Castle, in which he also criticized the European Union.

According to Klaus, the formation of the Czechoslovak Republic on Oct. 28, 1918, remains a “permanent inspiration and reinforcement.”

“However, we know that we have yet to win. Right now, emerging and dangerously growing new threats require us to make efforts to secure our state’s existence and its future,” said Klaus at an event commemorating the 103rd anniversary of the founding of an independent Czechoslovakia, an event organized by the Czech Freedom Fighters Union (CSBS) along with other associations.

According to Klaus, Czechs cannot look at the future without worries, and threats to freedom are not only coming from lockdowns and restrictions associated with the coronavirus pandemic.

Potential Energy Shortages So Severe They Could Trigger Social Unrest

Blackstone Inc. co-founder Stephen Schwarzman said the world could face energy shortages so severe they trigger social unrest, Bloomberg reported.

“We’re going to end up with a real shortage of energy,” he said at a conference in Saudi Arabia. “And when you have a shortage it’s just going to cost more and it’s probably going to cost a lot more.

American General Warns Chinese Military Poised to Surpass the U.S.

China is developing its military capabilities at a “stunning” pace and may soon “surpass” the United States, a top U.S. general said on Thursday.

“The pace they’re moving and the trajectory that they’re on will surpass Russia and the United States if we don’t do something to change it,” the outgoing Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General John Hyten said on Thursday.

The admission comes after last week’s revelations that China successfully tested a nuclear-capable hypersonic missile. The missile, which is several times faster than a ballistic missile, may be able to evade U.S. air defense systems…

Hungary, Slovenia Propose Demographic Agenda for EU That Focuses on Families Instead of Migration

Hungary’s ruling Fidesz party, together with its Slovenian sister party the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS), will propose at the Brussels executive committee meeting of the Centrist Democrat International (CDI) a set of demographic rules, Bertala Havasi, Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s press secretary told national news agency MTI on Thursday.

The meeting of the Centrist Democrat International (formerly Christian Democrat International) founded in 1947 is holding a two-day meeting in Brussels attended by Orban.

The draft declaration of the two parties is based on the final declaration of the Budapest Demographic Summit on the dire population situation in Europe. The declaration highlights, among other things, the importance of measures to strengthen the traditional family model, emphasizes that family policy must remain a national competence, and draws attention to the fact that migration cannot be a means of tackling demographic problems.

Playing God (Badly)

But I know this: we invented about the most complex product imaginable, tested it in a relative handful of people for a few months, a far shorter timetable than is typical for drug development. Now we are shoving it on every human we can reach — to prevent (or more accurately fail to prevent) an illness that is not particularly dangerous to most of them.

UK to Outlaw Persuading Children to Change Genders

The British government will soon outlaw efforts to persuade children to change their gender and prohibit “conversion therapy” on LGBT people. Under the new plan set to be unveiled on Friday, adults who try to persuade children to change their gender, who perform so-called “gender identity counseling,” will face criminal sanctions.

Following its implementation next spring, it will be illegal to convince someone to change their sexuality or gender identity, and the government intends to offer extra safeguards to protect children and adolescents.

The plan effectively criminalizes religious practices such as gay conversion therapy, as well as pro-LGBTQ organizations such as Mermaids, which has been accused of encouraging children and adolescents to identify as transgender and undergo hormone therapy and other sex transition procedures.

5 thoughts on “Gates of Vienna News Feed 10/30/2021

  1. The idea of gender reassignment and sexual orientation is such a nightmare.

    The tale of Peppy and To Kill a Mockingbird would look completely different today. These girls would be made lesbian or transgender.

    My daughter belongs to the Artemis Archetype. As a child, she only had enough trousers for two weeks. All the surrounding trees and fences were familiar to her. She did not play with dolls, preferring constructors.

    She’s okay, she’s heterosexual. One year ago she got married.
    But now she would not be allowed to calmly grow up and become what she is.

    Recently I spoke with one of my acquaintances, he is completely discouraged: his thirteen-year-old daughter said that she was most likely a lesbian.
    I also had problems with my daughter as a teenager, but there was no such horror.
    Or recently I was told a ghastly story of how an 11-year-old girl blackmailed her father, demanding an iPhone. Otherwise, she will report to the police that he is a pedophile.
    The other day I read in the newspaper how a girl reported to the police against her mother for slapping her on the buttocks, for refusing to help her wash the dishes.

  2. Schools Across U.S. Cite Inclusivity as Reason for Backing Away From Halloween Events

    ===============
    When the world was polar – divided into socialist and capitalist camps, all these merry holidays of the Western world looked very attractive, against the background of the dull Socialist camp.

    Western countries had to try to make their life more interesting and the residents had more opportunities – in professional growth, the opportunity to earn property, in high-quality medicine. That is why they paid so much attention to the working class.

    Now only the Islamic Caliphate remains as an alternative in the world. A bleak Islamic caliphate, no music, no songs, no art.

    And now we can offer a complete degradation as a counterbalance. And no one will say a word against.
    Because either LGBT or Afghanistan and ISIS.

    In our country, there is also an alternative: either the Russian Orthodox Church and the 17th century (this was the Baroque and the Enlightenment in your countries in the 17th century, and in Russia – religious obscurantism), or Islam and the 7th century.

    What a longing.

    By the way. There are many pedophile scandals associated with the Russian Orthodox Church. But since our society is much more closed, this information is cut off.
    But if you are interested, I can throw a lot of links.

  3. Slovenia, Hungary, and the rest of the V-4+Plus, should focus at the same time on a border wall with the east as well as the west. It’s good to see leaders putting words to the pro-natal solution against demographic replacement. Encouraging.
