Forget A Universal Basic Income. Instead, Pay Married People To Have More Babies

Republicans must become not just the party of workers but also the party of families. They should do it by upping Joe Biden’s proposed child tax credit into something bigger.

As the Republican Party charts its path during a Joe Biden presidency, there will undoubtedly be calls from the corporate wing to return to the neoliberal orthodoxy that defined it under the Bushes, Mitt Romney, and Paul Ryan. This would be a profound mistake.

President Donald Trump has repositioned Republicans as the party of workers with his focus on trade, industrial, and immigration issues. By crafting an expanded platform directed at working and middle-class Americans, Republicans can build on Trump’s success to build a more durable and potent electoral coalition. Republicans must become not just the party of workers but also the party of families.

Biden’s COVID spending plan raises the urgency of this shift, as Republicans will have to respond to his proposal to raise the child tax credit to $3,600 from $2,000. Rather than countering with frugality, conservatives should counter with a larger program that will not only help parents balance the checkbook each month but also encourage having more children.

Housing, Education Are Eating Stagnant Income Gains

Over the past four years, Trump focused relentlessly on the income issues facing Americans after two decades of wage stagnation. Thanks to this, real median household income rose 6.8 percent in 2019, the fastest since at least 1985. From 1999 through 2016, real median income rose just 0.3 percent. In Trump’s first three years, it rose 9.2 percent—nearly $6,000.

While Trump’s policies addressed income stagnation, this is only half of the problem facing Americans, who struggle to raise families given ever-rising costs. Since 2000, the cost of education, according to the Consumer Price Index, has risen by 148 percent while the cost of shelter has risen by 73 percent. Both are well in excess of the 54 percent rise in the overall price level.

Republicans must address these affordability issues. Of course, the cost of housing and education are particularly important to would-be parents deciding how many children to have. This is critical, as our most pressing medium-term policy problem is the low birth rate.

Germany Probes 10 Deaths Linked to Pfizer mRNA Vaccine

Late last week, 21WIRE reported that Chinese health experts called for Norway and other countries to suspend the use of the experimental mRNA vaccine made by controversial Big Pharma manufacturers Pfizer and Moderna, following related deaths of at least 23 elderly recipients, according to Global Times.

Have Western authorities rushed the vaccine issue to suit the ‘raging pandemic’ narrative?

Norway

This week, Bloomberg reports the number of deaths under investigation in Norway has since risen to 33, all occurring between the ages 75 to 80.

Childrens Health Defense reports:

“According to the Global Times, a Beijing-based immunologist who requested anonymity said the mRNA vaccines had not proven safe for large-scale use or for preventing infectious diseases. Noting that people over 80 have weaker immune systems, he said they should not receive the vaccine, but instead should take medicines to improve their immune systems.”

The Norwegian Medicines Agency had previously said that all of the deaths occurred in people who had received the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine – which was the only COVID vaccine approved for use in Norway.

Germany

Yesterday, the net expanded as Germany reported similar incidents, as public health officials there opened up a new investigation into the death of 10 Germans in conjunction with the controversial new experimental mRNA vaccine from Pfizer and BioNTech pharmaceuticals.

The BMJ and others announced that the Paul Ehrlich Institute is currently investigating possible vaccine-related deaths.

United States Fallout

Problems with the rushed experimental genetic vaccine are also mounting in the US, as public health officials continue to force their new COVID vaccines into nursing homes, despite growing protests from nursing home staff about the government’s haphazard approach to push the vaccine now matter what.

Childrens Health Defense also adds here:

“So far, there’s no word of any investigation into the deaths of 29 elderly people at a nursing home in New York. According to a Jan. 9 news report from Syracuse.com, a single nursing home in upstate New York vaccinated 193 residents beginning on Dec. 22 and subsequently reported 24 deaths within the span of a couple of weeks.”

James Trafficant – The U.S. is Bankrupt

The Bankruptcy of The United States

United States Congressional Record, March 17, 1993 Vol. 33, page H-1303

Speaker-Rep. James Traficant, Jr. (Ohio) addressing the House:

"Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11. Members of Congress are official trustees presiding over the greatest reorganization of any Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S. Government. We are setting forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future. There are some who say it is a coroner's report that will lead to our demise.

It is an established fact that the United States Federal Government has been dissolved by the Emergency Banking Act, March 9, 1933, 48 Stat. 1, Public Law 89-719; declared by President Roosevelt, being bankrupt and insolvent. H.J.R. 192, 73rd Congress m session June 5, 1933 - Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold Standard and Abrogate The Gold Clause dissolved the Sovereign Authority of the United States and the official capacities of all United States Governmental Offices, Officers, and Departments and is further evidence that the United States Federal Government exists today in name only.

The receivers of the United States Bankruptcy are the International Bankers, via the United Nations, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. All United States Offices, Officials, and Departments are now operating within a de facto status in name only under Emergency War Powers. With the Constitutional Republican form of Government now dissolved, the receivers of the Bankruptcy have adopted a new form of government for the United States.

This new form of government is known as a Democracy, being an established Socialist/Communist order under a new governor for America. This act was instituted and established by transferring and/or placing the Office of the Secretary of Treasury to that of the Governor of the International Monetary Fund. Public Law 94-564, page 8, Section H.R. 13955 reads in part: "The U.S. Secretary of Treasury receives no compensation for representing the United States."

Gold and silver were such a powerful money during the founding of the united states of America, that the founding fathers declared that only gold or silver coins can be "money" in America.

Since gold and silver coinage were heavy and inconvenient for a lot of transactions, they were stored in banks and a claim check was issued as a money substitute. People traded their coupons as money, or "currency."

Currency is not money, but a money substitute. Redeemable currency must promise to pay a dollar equivalent in gold or silver money. Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs) make no such promises, and are not "money."

A Federal Reserve Note is a debt obligation of the federal United States government, not "money." The federal United States government and the U.S. Congress were not and have never been authorized by the Constitution for the United States of America to issue currency of any kind, but only lawful money, gold and silver coin.

It is essential that we comprehend the distinction between real money and paper money substitute. One cannot get rich by accumulating money substitutes, one can only get deeper into debt. We the People no longer have any "money."

Democrat Demands for Direct Checks Increase: ‘Let’s Send Out $2k Monthly Checks’

Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) joined far-left members of the “Squad” in demanding $2,000 direct checks for the American people, but took the request a step further, calling for the checks to be “monthly.”

“We cannot afford to wait any longer. Let’s send out $2k monthly checks,” Khanna said Tuesday as Democrats continue to clamor over President-elect Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion spending plan, which includes $1,400 checks rather than $2,000:

Last week, Khanna suggested that Democrats, who will have a majority in the Senate, take it a step further and provide Americans with $2,000 per month “every month, until this crisis is over”:

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), a far-left member of the “Squad,” also said last week that the checks should be “recurring.” She later emphasized they are “survival” checks rather than “stimulus” checks:

US Files Appeal in Assange Case

The U.S. on Tuesday filed an appeal in London against a British judge’s decision to block Julian Assange’s extradition on health grounds.

The United States has filed an appeal of Judge Vanessa Baraitser’s Jan. 4 decision to block WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange’s extradition to the United States because of an extreme risk of suicide.

Washington’s British lawyers’ filed papers with the High Court in London on the final day of a 14-day deadline, a spokesman for the Crown Prosecution Service confirmed to Britain’s Press Association.

The PA reported that the U.S. has been granted an additional fortnight to file details to back up its appeal.

An administrative decision by the High Court is expected on whether to allow the appeal before any hearings could be heard.

The filing comes on the last full day of the Trump administration, which prosecuted Assange on 17 charges under the Espionage Act and one charge of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion and requested his extradition.

The incoming Biden administration has given no indication how its Department of Justice would deal with the case.

Meanwhile, two days after Baraitser ordered Assange “discharged” she denied him bail and sent him back to Belmarsh Prison, where he has languished since shortly after his arrest on April 11, 2019.

CNN Wants to 'Deradicalize' Trump 'Cult' — But Not Antifa Anarchists and Russiagate Conspiracists

Anti-Trump news station CNN was one of the leading promoters of the debunked Russiagate conspiracy, but has offered scant criticism of the months of riots across the US since last spring or the ideology of the anarchist Antifa movement.

CNN has hit peak Trump Derangement Syndrome just 24 hours before the the 45th president leaves office — offering tips on how to "de-programme" his "cult" supporters.

Author and self-styled "cult expert" Steven Hassan gave CNN's New Day programme advice on how to "deradicalize" Trump supporters, including gems of condescension such as: "Don't 'tell' them; help them make their own discoveries."

Trump-obsessed Hassan has made numerous TV appearances in the past 15 months to plug his 2019 book The Cult of Trump: A Leading Cult Expert Explains How the President Uses Mind Control, including a five-minute slot on CNN a month after it was published.

— Steven Hassan, PhD (@CultExpert) January 18, 2021

But Hassan is a poacher-turned-gamekeeper. He has previously admitted his claimed expertise on personality cults stems from the two-and-a-half years he spent in South Korean Reverend Sun Myung Moon's infamous religious cult, where he swiftly rose through the ranks to become a leader of the organisation within three months.

Social media users were quick to highlight how CNN ​has made little criticism of the ideology of anarchist groups that have run riot across the US since last spring's resurgence of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.

Conservative commentator Jack Posobiec pointed out that CNN ran a sympathetic interview over the weekend with John Earle Sullivan, a member of the pro-BLM Insurgence USA group who has been charged over involvement in the January 6 Capitol building occupation. Recordings show Utah-based Sullivan incited protesters to storm the building.

— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) January 16, 2021

​CNN has already been widely lampooned after a reported described rampant arson and violence by Antifa anarchist rioters last year as "fiery but mostly peaceful protests".

— Moderate-Conservative (TX) (@TxModerate) January 16, 2021

Others focused on how CNN spent years promoting the debunked Russiagate conspiracy theory that Moscow somehow influenced Trump's 2016 election.

​Trump supporters reacted to CNN's description of them as an extremist cult in need of de-programming with a mixture of indignation and ridicule.

Chinese medics say they were told to cover up COVID deaths, evidence of human transmission

The Chinese communist government ordered healthcare workers to conceal the deaths of coronavirus victims, and hide the fact of human-to-human transmission at least a month before China went public with the information to the World Health organization, according to Chinese medics interviewed in a new ITV documentary titled Outbreak: The Virus That Shook the World.

The documentary, set to air Tuesday on Sky TV tells “the dramatic global story of the first year of COVID-19, tracing the devastation caused by the spread of the virus across four continents.”

Featuring medical professionals based in Wuhan, the interviewees claim to have discovered that people had died from the virus as early as December 2019, but were told by Chinese authorities “not to tell the truth.” The healthcare professionals say that some local officials wanted to cancel January's Lunar New Year celebrations that ultimately led to further spread of the disease, but were denied in order to “present a harmonious and prosperous society.”

“We all felt there shouldn’t be any doubt about human-to-human transmission,” said one of the interviewed medics. “We knew this virus transmitted from human-to-human. But when we attended a hospital meeting, we were told not to speak out. The provincial leaders told the hospitals not to tell the truth,” said another, reports the Daily Wire.

“As late as January 12, the WHO was saying there was ‘no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission’ and said it was ‘reassured of the quality’ of China’s response,” the Daily Mail reported. “By January 21, when the WHO issued its first situation report on the virus, the disease had infected at least 278 people in China and spread to three other countries.”

The WHO has commissioned a panel to investigate the origins of the coronavirus that first appeared in China, and has already found that public health measures could have been applied more forcefully by its health authorities as early as January 2020.
