The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been besieged with complaints by whistleblowers who say the federal “emergency management” agency has sabotaged rescue and response efforts in North Carolina and Tennessee in the wake of the Hurricane Helene disaster.
Thousands are without power, water, food or other resources. But government agencies have been halting volunteer deliveries into the disaster areas and threatening to arrest volunteer rescuers.
The agencies have also banned private drones from the disaster regions.
Just as in other recent natural disasters, volunteer rescuers are now being threatened with arrest by government officials.
Volunteer pilot Jordan Seidhom recently engaged in life-saving rescue missions for stranded families in the wake of devastating floods in the North Carolina mountains.
Seidhom rescued a number of stranded victims of the disaster. On one occasion, Seidhom thought the pavement where he landed his helicopter was a little unstable. So Seidhom opted to leave his copilot son at the rescue scene and fly the stranded victims to medical treatment areas one at a time.
But when the helicopter pilot landed at a safe area, he was confronted by a powermad government official. The official threatened him with arrest if he continued rescuing people.
“I explained to him that I left my son on the side of the mountain, and I left another victim. I was going to go back and bring them, it was already set up for the landing spot and then I would get out of his area. He told me I wasn’t going to go back up the mountain to get them, I was going to leave them there.”
“I’m going back and getting my copilot. ‘If you turn around and go back up the mountain, you’re going to be arrested.’ I said, ‘Well, sir, I’m going back to get my copilot, I don’t know what to tell you.’”
Pavel Durov, founder of Telegram, remains in a Paris jail cell as of Monday morning. Durov was arrested Friday “as part of an investigation into Telegram’s lack of content moderation and the platform’s role in allegedly enabling criminal activity, according to the Washington Post.” Durov previously fled Russia in 2014 after refusing to hand over data on Ukrainian users on requested by the Russian government. Durov now lives in Dubai, where Telegram is based, and has dual French and United Arab Emirates citizenship.
Governments around the world are hunting, jailing, and persecuting companies which allow free speech. Previously, this censorship was mostly isolated in socialist regimes such as China and North Korea; or focused on individual journalists. But now governments appear to be seeking to scuttle entire social media platforms.
Elon Musk’s X recently pulled out of Brazil. All X employees have fled the anti-free-speech regime.
The goal of censoring and silencing dissent (masquerading as a crackdown on “hate,” “misinformation,” or whatever) seems to be gaining momentum even among Americans. Especially those affiliated with the Democratic Party. Recently the Democratic Party’s nominee for Vice President, Tim Walz, made remarks supporting increased censorship.
Paris. August 24, 2024. Pavel Durov, the Russian-born billionaire founder and owner of the Telegram messaging app, was arrested at Le Bourget airport outside Paris shortly after landing on a private jet late on Saturday. Reuters reports that “BFM and TF1 said that Durov, who has dual French and United Arab Emirates citizenship, was arrested as part of a preliminary police investigation into allowing possible criminality due to a lack of moderators on Telegram and a lack of cooperation with police.
The Drudge Report (an obvious CIA organ since at least Fall of 2018), provided the globalist take at the top of its page on August 25, 2024:
Thus the intelligence community and global elites are seeking to paint Durov’s arrest as a “terrorism, narcotic supply, fraud,” and “money laundering” arrest. Drudge Report links to a story in the Jerusalem Post.
The U.S. government previously obtained a life prison term for Ross Ulbricht, who founded a similarly open and free internet platform in the early 2000s. The US government also recently ordered the extradition of New Zealand internet freedom advocate Kim Dotcom, for “copyright violations.”
In a recent Tucker Carlson interview, Durov said that he had been hounded and harassed by FBI agents and the US government for years. Durov said that the FBI tried to hire a telegram employee to secretly put a backdoor into the system to circumvent Telegram’s encryption.
Columbia University is considered number one in the ranks of US journalism schools. Many of the most prominent news reporters attended Columbia.
Now there is evidence that the Columbia School of Journalism is coordinating climate terror news narratives that are planted into news stories worldwide. Millions of dollars in grants from Bill Gates and other pro-government extremists promote the project. “They are collaborating, they are conspiring — both in the open and behind closed doors.” See here.
Columbia’s guidelines tell journalists to put scary words such as “dangerous,” “deadly,” and “crisis” in their stories about the weather. Columbia even writes sentences and even entire paragraphs for reporters to place in their weather and news reports.
The Columbia project urges reporters to not let readers think that it is hot because it is summer. A link to CO2 and fossil fuels must be placed into every weather report.
Reporters are urged to illustrate their stories with images of struggle:
“Choose visuals carefully. While it may be tempting to make light of heat by using “fun in the sun” photos, such as people eating ice cream or crowded pools, it’s more accurate to use images that reflect the seriousness of the situation. Opt for photos that show people struggling with heat (like crowded cooling centers or workers struggling under heat conditions) or signage warning of high temperatures.”
Kristoff worries that pro-government “liberal” policies have made many social problems worse.
“The basic reason for homelessness on the West Coast,” concedes Kristoff, “is an enormous shortage of housing that drives up rents. California lacks about three million housing units, in part because it’s difficult to get permission to build.”
This, of course, is because California (and Oregon and Washington) impose too many regulations, barriers, and obstacles to the construction of new housing.
Government trusters like Kristoff have spent years advocating for government housing projects. But “[p]ublic sector efforts to build housing are often ruinously expensive, with “affordable housing” sometimes costingmore than $1 million per unit.”
We are betting that 12 percent of Phoenix will NOT DIE from climate by 2040.
By Dr. Roger Roots, J.D., Ph.D.
We are extending our offers regarding climate change bets. I have long had an open FIVE THOUSAND DOLLAR bet offered to anyone regarding the government’s prediction (still published in the movie shown to thousands at the St. Mary Visitor Center) that the glaciers at Glacier National Park will all be gone by “2030.”
We have also extended a bet regarding another ‘climate’ related claim–widely published on X–that rhinos, orangutans, cheetahs and blue whales will be extinct by May 3, 2034. See here.
Additionally, I have a friendly bet with my friend Ted Kocienzski III of Minnesota that by the end of harvest 2028), major U.S. commodity crops will produce yields no lower than 10 years earlier. The US government–in it’s 2018 “Climate Assessment”–predicted crops would decline due to “climate change” within a decade.
(If, in 2028, any major crop yield is lower than in 2018, Roots will buy Kocienzski dinner and a bottle of wine. If, on the other hand, all major U.S. commodity crop yields are no lower than they are in 2018, Kocienzski will buy Roots dinner and a bottle of wine.
THE NEW BET OFFER:
On May 30, 2024, Extinction Rebellion and Just-Stop-Oil founder Roger Hallam made a startling prediction on ‘X.’ Hallam predicted the following:
“12 per cent of the population of Phoenix, Arizona will die of extreme heat in the 2030s.” See here.
Hallam calculated that “climate” will kill 180,000 Phoenix residents during the 2030s. “Phoenix will experience social collapse at some point in the 2030s, along with the rest of the world’s cities in the new death zones of the planet.”
I Roger Roots, posted my $500 bet offer on Hallam’s X feed immediately after Hallam made his 12%-dead prediction. We will see if Hallam takes me up on the bet.
More Americans are waking up to how corrupt the government is. According to a new Rasmussen poll, 54% of likely United States voters believe that a group of people randomly selected from the phone book would do a better job of ‘governing’ than the current Congress.
Just 27% of voters believe Congress is doing a better job than a randomly selected group of individuals would do.
And more than two-thirds, 67 percent–believe that the average member of Congress listen mostly to “party leaders” (the elites), more than to constituents.
A neww poll by the American Press Institute and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that just fourteen percent of the U.S. population trusts the news media to deliver accurate information. More Americans admit they believe in astrology. See here.
This although today’s academic, government, corporate, and news leaders now decry misinformation” as a major social problem. During the past several years, numerous Big-Tech- and academic-sponsored nonprofits have been launched to convince people to trust only mainstream, government-curated “news” sources.
Rasmussen Polling 2024. Veteran pollster Scott Rasmussen surveyed a group of Americans he calls the elite 1% earlier this year. Rasmussen was astounded at the stark differences between the opinions of elites and the rest of the population.
“The elite 1%—individuals who make over $150,000 a year, live in densely populated areas, and have postgraduate degrees—are overwhelmingly liberal.
Among the elite 1%, about half say Americans have “too much freedom.” And among politically obsessed 1%ers, about 7 out of 10 say, “There’s too much individual freedom in America.”
Rasmussen says In America, it’s been 50 years since most voters trusted the government to do the right thing most of the time. But among the elite 1%, 70% trust the government.
