Something to Consider
By E.P. Unum
February 9, 2021

Before reviewing this essay, you may find these numbers interesting:
As reported by the CDC ... here are the total number of US deaths by year and the change from the previous year

> Year 2017 2,818,503 Americans died

> Year 2018: 2,839,205 deaths (20,702 more than the previous year 2017)

> Year 2019: 2,855,000 deaths (16,300 more than the previous year 2018)

> Year of the pandemic ...2020..,.there were 2,913,144 deaths (57,641 more than the previous year 2019)

Let this sink in for a minute. There were zero deaths from Covid-19 reported during 2018 and 2019… and the jump from 2019 to 2020 was only 57,641?

But, We have been told COVID is responsible for 440,000 + deaths.

Shouldn't the calendar year 2020 number be a hell of a lot higher? Hold that thought for a minute….

So the question now becomes: how many people died FROM COVID and how many died (of other causes) WITH COVID?

Perhaps there is a more reasonable explanation such as the possibility that the CDC is not finished reporting the final tabulations of the number of deaths through 2020. That, of course, is a possibility, but this is February 2021 and clearly, if the number of deaths was 440,000 higher they surely did not all occur in November or December 2020, so why the delay?

More importantly, let’s consider these possibilities:

Perhaps the reporting of deaths by the media was intentionally misleading, a very well-orchestrated plan intended to create fear and upheaval in the middle of an election year and on the heels of an ill-advised failure to remove a sitting President of the United States based on false accusations. Or, perhaps Covid 19 was an unimaginable set of events that just fell into place with the United States front and center. Let’s dispense with this possibility straight away: Can you tell me another nation with more reported deaths than the U.S?

Let’s consider for a moment the following sequence of facts:

Covid started with messages from the CDC and the eminent and distinguished Dr. Fauci of the NIH announcing in January 2020 to the media on TV and on TV talk shows that the “U.S. had nothing to worry about” and there was “no reason to wear masks” to telling us in late February and early March of 2020 that “masks are a necessity” and “we face a real pandemic”

Enter the media and social media platforms, democratic mayors, governors, and, most importantly, democratic members of Congress who, every day, 24/7 in concert with the mainstream media, do the following:

> Scare people with a virus. Force them to wear masks and place them in quarantine. Demand that voting in the national election be handled by mail while allowing people to stand in line and shop at Home Depot, Loews, Target, Walmart, Costco. Bed Bath & Beyond, and other "BigBox" stores

> Count the number of deaths every second of every day, in every News Headline. By the way, ninety-nine and six-tenths (99.6%) of the people who contract the virus, recover. About one to two-tenths of one percent who get the virus, die, and most all of them have other medical problems. Did you catch that? Less than 1/2 of a percent die.

> Closed businesses yielded 35,000,000+ instantly unemployed. 100 years ago, in the midst of the Spanish Flu Epidemic which killed over 50 million people worldwide, businesses and schools were never shut down.

> Remove entertainment and prohibit recreation, closing parks, gyms, bars, restaurants, sports. When sports are permitted, tell the limited number of people who are present at the events or who are watching at home that they should be wearing masks and refrain from cheering or shouting because that “tends to spread the virus.”

> No dating. No touching. Isolate people. Dehumanize them.

> Close Temples and Churches. Prohibit worship. Create a vacuum and let depression, anxiety, hopelessness, and desperation set in.

> Close schools from elementary through university, shut down all extra-curricular activities, and implement virtual online learning with no regard as to the impact this has on our children and how they learn, and no regard for the need for them to interact and have human contact.

> Ignite hatred and civil unrest in the streets resulting in the looting of businesses, injuries, and deaths to innocent bystanders and police attempting to maintain order.

> Highlight the cries to defund the police, empty the prisons because of the virus, arrest those you catch looting and causing damage, but, then immediately release them without any bail, and continue to fill the streets with criminals.

> Allow Antifa and Black Lives Matter to vandalize property as if they are freedom fighters. Undermine the rule of law, condone riots, looting and attack all law enforcement,…but tell the government to order police to stand-down.

> Terminate the Keystone XL Pipeline, restrict fracking and oil and gas exploration thereby eliminating America’s Energy Independence which took us decades to achieve, driving up costs to business and consumers, and immediately putting tens of thousands of Americans on unemployment lines. Then, abandon building the wall on the U.S. southern border which has effectively controlled immigration and invited thousands of migrant people from South America to assemble and illegally enter the United States…all at a time when we have tens of millions unemployed and still dealing with Covid.

So, the acid-test question is this: Is it possible that we are all being played by those who want to achieve power and destroy America?

This is nothing new. We have had socialist and communist movements in our country for many years…indeed, several decades. But the ones we have in our midst today are insidious and have been the result of decades of abdicating responsibility for our education system and ignorance of just how Marxist and Communists develop footholds inside a nation.

No longer do we teach our children about American Exceptionalism and what America has meant to the world.

No longer do we focus on American achievements in science, medicine, technology, and engineering or the arts and literature.

Instead, it seems all that we hear is how bad America is. We allow disgusting, inflammatory research like the N.Y. Times endorsed 1619 Project to be installed as a mandatory curriculum in our elementary and high schools, and professors at our universities to substitute factual history with their personal flair for condemning America as an imperialist nation which ignores the needs of the poor in favor of the wealthy. They denigrate capitalism as the root of all evil and ignore that capitalism has been the economic system that has created the greatest individual and collective wealth and prosperity in the history of the world.

They teach our students that socialism and communism is a preferable system because it espouses “equity for all”, but they never once mention that socialism has never worked in any country that has tried it, and that the only people who have benefitted from socialism are those at the top who achieved their wealth and power on the backs of those who produced it.

It is important to reflect on these immutable facts: America is a nation that was born just 245 years ago. We have been in existence for only 245 years, a pimple on the ass of an elephant to give some perspective. There are nations on this planet who have been in existence for several thousands of years, whose history dwarfs ours. Yet, in that finite period of time, we have produced the single greatest system of government based on principles of individual liberty and respect for, trust, and belief in God, the greatest economy and wealth known to man, the finest military in the world, and twice in the 20th century, we saved the world from the horrors of Fascism and the Nazi’s, rebuilding 19 countries in Europe and the entire nation of Japan in aftermath of the devastation of World War II.

I submit to you that what has transpired throughout 2020 is how you destroy a nation from within, and in very short order. It is a blueprint for the destruction of America and all you need to do is a quick review of the Executive Orders enacted by President Joe Biden to understand how these are weakening our nation. President Biden did not develop these edicts. It is my considered opinion that this is the work of Barack Obama, Susan Rice, Bernie Sanders, John Kerry, George Soros, and the cabal of power-hungry devotees of the Elite New World Order.

Will this diabolical plan work? I guess that depends on you and me.

Looks like Krushchev was right.
We are Dying slowly from within.
From Russian problems created within our borders. They have convinced the right that the left is their enemy.
Everything they do is wrong.
Circling the drain and unable to do a thing about it.
The right has no answers for anything. They only have instances about how wrong the left is. No solutions other than hanging or blowing something up .
Purely reactionaries. Zero leadership, claiming the best leadership is their party.
To watch these clowns at trumps trial is painful.
You know their minds are made up already.
Teflon Trumpenstein.
Laws don’t matter, there is nothing that can be done on this planet that is so horrendous , so terrible it can change minds of the “heavens gate” Believers.

Talking about impeachment it shouldn't have happened as the riot was a false flag setup by the democrats to use as excuse to impeach Trump. Watch the video: it is Solid proof that Jan. 6th riot was a false flag.

The right has complained that the left is wrong, you are correct about that. It's one thing to say that the wrong things are being done, but it does take both sides working together to solve the problems. The right has proposed some solutions, but the left digs in their heels and insist that by throwing more money at the problem will solve it. Both sides need to recognize when something is wrong and needs to be stopped or changed.
One issue that is dear to me is immigration. Congress needs to quit sitting on their brains and actually solve the problem. When Trump said he was reversing Obama's executive order creating DACA, he also said he was giving Congress 6 months to pass legislation to create a system to solve the issue. Congress still did nothing. The decision to deport the DACA people wouldn't have been totally fair to them, neither would granting blanket citizenship to them been fair to the country or those who followed the laws to get here. Biden's talk of opening the borders is not fair to American workers suffering from the unemployment caused by the pandemic and those who have followed all the procedures to come here legally. My son-in-law has a chemical engineering degree and he and my daughter (an American citizen) would like to move here. They've been trying to get the paperwork taken care of for nearly two years. Part of the delay is because of the pandemic restrictions. Most of it is because of the immigration red tape.

The common sense thing to do would be to halt ALL immigration until Congress can put together a package where property vetting of applicants can be done. I would also include that anyone immigrating be able to contribute to the American society.

I agree. That's what Trump was trying to do, but the Democrats and Rinos wouldn't work with him to form a fair and comprehensive policy. Like I said, my son-in-law has a chemical engineering degree and is married to an American citizen. I didn't care for advice he and my daughter got from an immigration attorney here. To get married here, he had to be in the country over 90 days. A tourist visa is only valid for 90 days. He would have needed to overstay his visa to get married here, but it was no guarantee that he would have been allowed to stay and he could have been banned from ever returning because he overstayed his visa. An immigration attorney here said he should just overstay his visa and worry about any problems later. Instead, my daughter and granddaughters went there. They legally got married in Australia and visas have been extended until my daughter gets permanent residency or the US grants him with a residency status visa.

The right has complained that the left is wrong, you are correct about that. It's one thing to say that the wrong things are being done, but it does take both sides working together to solve the problems. The right has proposed some solutions, but the left digs in their heels and insist that by throwing more money at the problem will solve it. Both sides need to recognize when something is wrong and needs to be stopped or changed.
One issue that is dear to me is immigration. Congress needs to quit sitting on their brains and actually solve the problem. When Trump said he was reversing Obama's executive order creating DACA, he also said he was giving Congress 6 months to pass legislation to create a system to solve the issue. Congress still did nothing. The decision to deport the DACA people wouldn't have been totally fair to them, neither would granting blanket citizenship to them been fair to the country or those who followed the laws to get here. Biden's talk of opening the borders is not fair to American workers suffering from the unemployment caused by the pandemic and those who have followed all the procedures to come here legally. My son-in-law has a chemical engineering degree and he and my daughter (an American citizen) would like to move here. They've been trying to get the paperwork taken care of for nearly two years. Part of the delay is because of the pandemic restrictions. Most of it is because of the immigration red tape.

I understand all that.
I think the issue above ALL OTHER ISSUES
Is on trial at this very moment.
Will 44 Republican Senators find a place in their deep dark holes they call elite thinking minds that make everyone else look so stupid.
Are we witnessing a total loss of human thinking here? Is the
Heavens Gate Trump Brigade truly the smartest frog on the planet ?
Are we now out of compassion?
Decency, is the fact that only 5 people were killed at the Capital, fingers severed,
Eyes poked out, police being beaten with American Flags, at the
United States Capital ?????
The Bastion of Democracy setting the Example for the world of how fairness for all is something we Americans
Would Die For ?

I have tried to understand their comments.
With what is happening at this moment in time I find how much they really repulse me. Anger me.
I am sure that if Donald is given a pass you will be seeing Flag Burnings Everywhere in this country.
Putin of course will still be laughing his ass off.
Good job boys and girls.
If Donald walks on this one I will take my US Flag out to the burn barrel and burn it myself.
That will be the last meaningful action taken.
My very last freedom of expression.

We're already seeing flag burnings all over this country and it has nothing to do with Trump. This is something the leftists have been doing for decades. Have you not seen the Antifa and BLM groups were leading the people and urging them to invade the Capitol Building? How about the left attempting to break in during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing? According to the FBI, the Capitol riot was planned in advance and the break in started before Trump gave his speech. The language he used was no different than that the Democrats and other politicians have used to energize their base to peacefully, but vociferously, support the particular candidate or cause. The same phrasing has been used by coaches to fire up their teams and, except for maybe boxing or MMA, I don't believe any of them meant for their teams to engage in violence outside of the normal contact inherent in the game at hand. Democrats encouraged their supporters to physically confront Republicans and Trump supporters. Maxine Waters even denied she ever said that even when confronted with the video evidence.

Something to Consider
By E.P. Unum
February 9, 2021

Before reviewing this essay, you may find these numbers interesting:
As reported by the CDC ... here are the total number of US deaths by year and the change from the previous year

> Year 2017 2,818,503 Americans died

> Year 2018: 2,839,205 deaths (20,702 more than the previous year 2017)

> Year 2019: 2,855,000 deaths (16,300 more than the previous year 2018)

> Year of the pandemic ...2020..,.there were 2,913,144 deaths (57,641 more than the previous year 2019)

Let this sink in for a minute. There were zero deaths from Covid-19 reported during 2018 and 2019… and the jump from 2019 to 2020 was only 57,641?

But, We have been told COVID is responsible for 440,000 + deaths.

Shouldn't the calendar year 2020 number be a hell of a lot higher? Hold that thought for a minute….

So the question now becomes: how many people died FROM COVID and how many died (of other causes) WITH COVID?

Perhaps there is a more reasonable explanation such as the possibility that the CDC is not finished reporting the final tabulations of the number of deaths through 2020. That, of course, is a possibility, but this is February 2021 and clearly, if the number of deaths was 440,000 higher they surely did not all occur in November or December 2020, so why the delay?

More importantly, let’s consider these possibilities:

Perhaps the reporting of deaths by the media was intentionally misleading, a very well-orchestrated plan intended to create fear and upheaval in the middle of an election year and on the heels of an ill-advised failure to remove a sitting President of the United States based on false accusations. Or, perhaps Covid 19 was an unimaginable set of events that just fell into place with the United States front and center. Let’s dispense with this possibility straight away: Can you tell me another nation with more reported deaths than the U.S?

Let’s consider for a moment the following sequence of facts:

Covid started with messages from the CDC and the eminent and distinguished Dr. Fauci of the NIH announcing in January 2020 to the media on TV and on TV talk shows that the “U.S. had nothing to worry about” and there was “no reason to wear masks” to telling us in late February and early March of 2020 that “masks are a necessity” and “we face a real pandemic”

Enter the media and social media platforms, democratic mayors, governors, and, most importantly, democratic members of Congress who, every day, 24/7 in concert with the mainstream media, do the following:

> Scare people with a virus. Force them to wear masks and place them in quarantine. Demand that voting in the national election be handled by mail while allowing people to stand in line and shop at Home Depot, Loews, Target, Walmart, Costco. Bed Bath & Beyond, and other "BigBox" stores

> Count the number of deaths every second of every day, in every News Headline. By the way, ninety-nine and six-tenths (99.6%) of the people who contract the virus, recover. About one to two-tenths of one percent who get the virus, die, and most all of them have other medical problems. Did you catch that? Less than 1/2 of a percent die.

> Closed businesses yielded 35,000,000+ instantly unemployed. 100 years ago, in the midst of the Spanish Flu Epidemic which killed over 50 million people worldwide, businesses and schools were never shut down.

> Remove entertainment and prohibit recreation, closing parks, gyms, bars, restaurants, sports. When sports are permitted, tell the limited number of people who are present at the events or who are watching at home that they should be wearing masks and refrain from cheering or shouting because that “tends to spread the virus.”

> No dating. No touching. Isolate people. Dehumanize them.

> Close Temples and Churches. Prohibit worship. Create a vacuum and let depression, anxiety, hopelessness, and desperation set in.

> Close schools from elementary through university, shut down all extra-curricular activities, and implement virtual online learning with no regard as to the impact this has on our children and how they learn, and no regard for the need for them to interact and have human contact.

> Ignite hatred and civil unrest in the streets resulting in the looting of businesses, injuries, and deaths to innocent bystanders and police attempting to maintain order.

> Highlight the cries to defund the police, empty the prisons because of the virus, arrest those you catch looting and causing damage, but, then immediately release them without any bail, and continue to fill the streets with criminals.

> Allow Antifa and Black Lives Matter to vandalize property as if they are freedom fighters. Undermine the rule of law, condone riots, looting and attack all law enforcement,…but tell the government to order police to stand-down.

> Terminate the Keystone XL Pipeline, restrict fracking and oil and gas exploration thereby eliminating America’s Energy Independence which took us decades to achieve, driving up costs to business and consumers, and immediately putting tens of thousands of Americans on unemployment lines. Then, abandon building the wall on the U.S. southern border which has effectively controlled immigration and invited thousands of migrant people from South America to assemble and illegally enter the United States…all at a time when we have tens of millions unemployed and still dealing with Covid.

So, the acid-test question is this: Is it possible that we are all being played by those who want to achieve power and destroy America?

This is nothing new. We have had socialist and communist movements in our country for many years…indeed, several decades. But the ones we have in our midst today are insidious and have been the result of decades of abdicating responsibility for our education system and ignorance of just how Marxist and Communists develop footholds inside a nation.

No longer do we teach our children about American Exceptionalism and what America has meant to the world.

No longer do we focus on American achievements in science, medicine, technology, and engineering or the arts and literature.

Instead, it seems all that we hear is how bad America is. We allow disgusting, inflammatory research like the N.Y. Times endorsed 1619 Project to be installed as a mandatory curriculum in our elementary and high schools, and professors at our universities to substitute factual history with their personal flair for condemning America as an imperialist nation which ignores the needs of the poor in favor of the wealthy. They denigrate capitalism as the root of all evil and ignore that capitalism has been the economic system that has created the greatest individual and collective wealth and prosperity in the history of the world.

They teach our students that socialism and communism is a preferable system because it espouses “equity for all”, but they never once mention that socialism has never worked in any country that has tried it, and that the only people who have benefitted from socialism are those at the top who achieved their wealth and power on the backs of those who produced it.

It is important to reflect on these immutable facts: America is a nation that was born just 245 years ago. We have been in existence for only 245 years, a pimple on the ass of an elephant to give some perspective. There are nations on this planet who have been in existence for several thousands of years, whose history dwarfs ours. Yet, in that finite period of time, we have produced the single greatest system of government based on principles of individual liberty and respect for, trust, and belief in God, the greatest economy and wealth known to man, the finest military in the world, and twice in the 20th century, we saved the world from the horrors of Fascism and the Nazi’s, rebuilding 19 countries in Europe and the entire nation of Japan in aftermath of the devastation of World War II.

I submit to you that what has transpired throughout 2020 is how you destroy a nation from within, and in very short order. It is a blueprint for the destruction of America and all you need to do is a quick review of the Executive Orders enacted by President Joe Biden to understand how these are weakening our nation. President Biden did not develop these edicts. It is my considered opinion that this is the work of Barack Obama, Susan Rice, Bernie Sanders, John Kerry, George Soros, and the cabal of power-hungry devotees of the Elite New World Order.

Will this diabolical plan work? I guess that depends on you and me.
