New study: there are FEWER wildfires and LESS smoke today than in the distant past

Boston. May 2021. Government scientists at places like the National Interagency Fire center like to claim that forest fires have increased in recent years due to human use of fossil fuels. But new research by Pengfei Liu, a fellow at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) has found that the earth was far more fiery and smoky prior to the Industrial Era.

Liu’s team studied ice core samples in Antarctica, where the ice trapped smoke particles emitted from fires in Australia, Africa and South America. Ice core scientists and co-authors of the study, Joseph McConnell and Nathan Chellman from the Desert Research Institute in Nevada, measured soot, a key component of smoke, deposited in an array of 14 ice cores from across the continent.

What they found was unexpected.

“While most studies have assumed less fire took place in the preindustrial era, the ice cores suggested a much fierier past, at least in the Southern Hemisphere,” said Loretta Mickley, Senior Research Fellow in Chemistry-Climate Interactions at SEAS and senior author of the paper.

Pandemic lockdowns and school disruptions have made low income students MORE THAN A YEAR BEHIND in average education level

Corey DeAngelis of the Reason Foundation testified before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Consumer Protection & Commerce on March 11, 2021. DeAngelis said that there have been substantial costs associated with keeping schools closed during the 2020 ‘pandemic.’ Students have lost ground academically as well as physically. The poorest have fared the worst.

Government teachers and school administrators have fought to keep all government workers fully and excessively paid despite not working or working much less. Every teacher received stimulus checks, despite also never missing a single paycheck. Teacher unions have lobbied to force private schools and charter schools closed as well.

According to DeAngelis, the average poor student is now more than a year behind in his education because of the government lockdowns and restrictions. (Upper class students have fared much better.) Racial and ethnic gaps in learning have widened.

DeAngelis provided studies indicating that the average K-12 student in the US could lose $61,000 to $82,000 in lifetime earnings due to this loss of education. There have also been horrific impacts upon the economic security of parents and households.

Nobel Prize Virologist: “curve of vaccinations is followed by a curve of deaths”

2008 Nobel laureate Dr. Luc Montagnier was recently interviewed by the German-language RAIR Foundation. Montagnier stated that the worldwide COVID-19 vaccination program is producing greater mortality rather than immunity. Montagnier suggested that the immunizations were CREATING or promoting the creation of new variants.

Montagnier stated that many governments appear to be causing more harm than they are mitigating with the vaccines. “You see it in every country; it’s the same everywhere: The curve of vaccinations is followed by the curve of deaths,” said Montagnier.

Government-supporting professors push debunked theory that fossil fuel industry supports skepticism “anonymously”

Modern government-funded universities churn out so many false, pro-government “studies” that it is impossible to keep up with them all.

A few years back a pro-government extremist professor named Robert Brulle published an alleged scientific paper proclaiming that criticism of the government’s catastrophic-global-warming-by-CO2 theory are secretly funded by the fossil fuel industry.

There is nothing novel about this notion, of course. The claim has been part of the government’s climate doomsday hysteria messaging (and campaign finance “reform”) for years. But the claim evaporates on scrutiny. The major fossil fuel companies never spent more than a few dollars on skeptical climate research, and have actually spent millions more on pro-government climate messaging. The New York Attorney General spent 4 years and many millions of dollars pursuing Exxon-Mobil in a Brulle-inspired civil prosecution which ended in a finding of no liability in 2019.

Brulle’s research thesis sought to expand the “Exxon Knew”-type claim by suggesting that every dollar spent by wealthy oil or coal retirees or independent investors on libertarian thinktanks constituted a dollar from ‘the industry’ spent on “climate change denial.” Thus, donations to the Cato Institute or the Competitive Enterprise Institute were designated as funding for “denial.” And a new theme of this ‘research’ is that much of it is anonymous “dark money” (which generally means money the government doesn’t like).

Brulle’s research methods wouldn’t pass muster in a junior-high-school term paper; but in the pro-government-extremist atmosphere of modern higher education, they catapulted Brulle from a low-tier university (Drexel U.) into the Ivy League. Now a Visiting Professor of Environment and Society at Brown University, Brulle has ‘updated’ his ‘research’ in a new paper published in Climatic Change.

Dr. Christiane Northrup authored bestselling books on women’s health and was named one of the 100 most trusted people in America; now she is banned from most media for asking questions about COVID-19

One of the most famous and awarded obstetrician-gynecologists in the world, Dr. Christiane Northup authored New York Times bestsellers such as Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause. She was featured on the Oprah Winfrey many times and was named by Reader’s Digest in 2013 as one of the 100 most trusted people in America.

Now Dr. Northrup is censored and banned from major social media sources. She has been listed one of the “Disinformation Dozen” by a new report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate and Anti-Vax Watch. The report claims that up to 65 percent of “anti-vaccine content” on Facebook and Twitter originated from twelve influencers within the anti-vaxxer movement.

(The other social media users in the “Disinformation Dozen” include Joseph Mercola, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Ty and Charlene Bollinger, Sherri Tenpenny, Rizza Islam, Rashid Buttar, Erin Elizabeth, Sayer Ji, Kelly Brogan, Christiane Northrup, Ben Tapper, and Kevin Jenkins.)

Why has one of the most trusted people in America become such a pariah? Because she views COVID-19 as an exaggerated ailment easily treated by readily available over-the-counter medicines. Northrup regards mask-wearing as pointless and advises patients and followers to avoid the government’s COVID injections.

What does a Century-Old Book have to say about the Western World’s Impending Collapse into Financial Ruin?

The question of why some societies and not others grow rich has attracted the focus of thousands of scholars over the years. There are racist and genetic explanations (e.g., Oswald Spengler, Francis Galton), cultural explanations (e.g., Diamond’s Guns, Germs and Steel), and many political explanations.

But in 1905, a book was published in German which offered a novel perspective on the question: the great wealth of northern Europe was a result of the Protestant work ethic–and individualism. Wax Weber’s The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism (translated into English in 1930) asked why the wealth of Europe had moved over a thousand-year period from southern Europe (Greece and Italy) to northern Europe (Britain, Germany and Denmark). In the book Weber posited that Protestantism had triggered northern European capitalism, industriousness, savings and accumulation. By comparison, southern Europe was more Catholic and more controlled by collectivist culture.

DNA research now proves that ancient Polynesians traveled to the Americas long before Columbus

Polynesia is a term describing the racial and ethnic culture that dominates the immense zone of islands in the south pacific–including the Philippines, Hawaii, Samoa and Guam. The ancient Pacific Islanders were masters of ocean travel by fast-moving canoes and outriggers.

Early British explorers such as James Cook learned that the people of Polynesia were masters of ocean navigation. When lost, British sea captains would sometimes kidnap Polynesians to use as guides on the ocean. Polynesians were known to be experts on the stars and ocean currents.

Many scientists have long suspected that ancient Polynesians may have discovered the America’s prior to Columbus in 1492. Now there is DNA research which proves this.

Lars Fehren-Schmitz, an anthropological geneticist at the University of California (UC), Santa Cruz, along with Population geneticist Andrés Moreno-Estrada and anthropologist Karla Sandoval, both at Mexico’s National Laboratory of Genomics for Biodiversity, have shown that the Polynesians on islands such as Easter Island have traces of Native American DNA in their ancestry.

More polling finds trust in pro-government media at all-time low

Antigovernment News reports that a new poll supports Gallup polling which shows Americans’ trust in “mainstream” (government supported and supporting) media is at an all-time low.

New, Edelman survey finds just 46 percent of Americans trust traditional media. That’s the lowest number ever recorded in the 20 years that Edelman has obtained the data.

A clear majority (56%) believe mainstream (government supported and supporting) media is “purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations.”

The Edelman number tracks with Gallup’s findings. Gallup, over the past decade, has consistently put the percentage of Americans’ trust in media in the low 40s.

As with seemingly every major issue in America these days, the party divide is stark. Gallup’s 2020 results found that 73 percent of Democrats trust the media, while only 10 percent of Republicans do. The new Edelman numbers are in line with that schism. A post-election follow-up to the Edelman survey shows 57 percent of Democrats trust the media, compared to just 18 percent of Republicans.

Government sought to frame alternative social media by planting violent posts


According to Andrew Torba, CEO of Gab–a social media platform launched in 2016–the CIA has been trying to frame Gab by planting violent posts on the independent platform leading up to the Jan. 6, 2020 protests at the U.S. Capitol.

Torba suspects the CIA and other government agencies are actively trying to scrub the internet of all platforms except Google, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and other pro-government platforms.

Each of the mainstream pro-government platforms imposes strict censorship tools to delegitimize and ban criticism of government.

During the lead up to Jan. 6, 2020 (the date in which the electoral college votes in the 2020 presidential election would be counted in Congress), Gab experienced numerous new subscribers who posted many violent posts.

Torba believes the government planted the fake accounts in order to frame Gab for the alleged violence that was expected at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
