Before I found this board more of my research was done the old fashioned way: I read books.

Here is one that I found useful in explaining how we got to a place where our food supply is poisoned. My interpretation is that once you had an organization such as the FDA to enforce standards the seller didn't have to convince buyers his product was good. Instead all he had to do was to persuade, cajole or control the agency doing the regulating.

Before Silent Spring: Pesticides and Public Health in Pre-DDT America

Quote about the book:'The author shows how economic necessities, technological limitations, and pressures on regulatory agencies have brought us to “our present dilemma of seemingly having to poison our food in order to protect it.”'

Something rings true about this idea. My local district seems to be playing an enrollment game at the moment. They reported a number that is significantly lower than what I remember reading from last year and claim that the enrollment is higher. I could be mistaken because I don't think I have the actual numbers from last year, but the fact that I was already questioning lends credence to this hypothesis, imo.

Another area where I think I am seeing dodgy numbers has to do with a local hospital's profitability claims. They said something about being profitable but hedged with something like "but the numbers could change". Kinda like how on the Federal level they say all sorts of good things about jobs and such and then have to revise the numbers later when they think fewer are paying attention, I guess.

Oh, I forgot to mention another reason that fake numbers are used. If it was seen that no one is really buying houses at the moment and real estate values began to plunge imagine the effect on local "property taxes", at least over the long haul. "They" would lose a massive method of societal engineering via mortgage approvals and such and via evicting people using their inability to pay skyrocketing "property taxes" in retirement.

Yes, plausible deniability. But they wouldn't be using plausible deniability unless they were knowingly using fraudulent numbers.

I just saw the NOTABLE about Odessa, TX and it reminded me of something spoopy I noticed recently.

A while ago there was some sort of shenanigans in Ukraine where the Russians apparently reported a canister or drum of radioactive material had apparently been shipped, maybe to Odessa Ukraine (I am going from memory as it might take me some time to find the capped images I had). "Coincidentally" I was also, about that time reading this old book I had found called "The Odessa File" by Frederick Forsyth. Pics related.

O.D.E.S.S.A. is an acronym for a organization of former S.S. The edition of the book that I read (Bantam edition, 1974) has text on the back describing ODESSA as "Mafia-like".

Anyway to get to the point: After I started pointing out the spoopy coincidence of Odessa v. ODESSA I have started to notice that the European city name, when I see it is now spelled "Odesa".

Questions: Is there a real connection between"Odessa" Ukraine and ODESSA? Is it just an unfortunate "misspelling"? And, to what extent are anons, even in non-NOTABLE posts influencing other media?

The truth bomb that I am waiting for concerns the unconstitutional but "legal" child kidnapping operation called by various names but often known as "Child Protective Services".

If an adult is under strong suspicion of an actual crime such as assault then a warrant for their arrest needs to be obtained and the person arrested. How did we get to the place where on the mere accusation of a crime the accused can have their minor children "legally" abducted from their home?

Under Bill Clinton the Adoption and Safe Families Act (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adoption_and_Safe_Families_Act) Clinton turned American children into a commodity, because once parental rights were terminated the state could get money selling the children in "adoption". When parental rights are terminated Big Pharma gets lots of "cash cows" in the form of children to experiment on and control.

Quotes from the wikipedia article: "The Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA, Public Law 105–89) was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on November 19, 1997, after having been approved by the United States Congress earlier in the month.[1]"

" First Lady of the United States Hillary Clinton originally voiced interest in the issue of orphaned children in an article she wrote in 1995.[3] She then held public events to bring the issue exposure,[2][3] and met with U.S. Department of Health and Human Services officials and private foundation executives over policy questions and recommendations."
