First it was Coal. Next came the small farmer, then the oil/Nat Gas/Fracking industry. Next up, the meat industry.

Why you wonder?

It's all part of the g*******t plan. Carroll Quigley wrote about it in "Tragedy & Hope: A History of the World in Our Time".

It's out there for anyone to see, if you can put 2 and 2 together and are not willfully blind. But hey, maybe that's just me.

Proposed House Rules Seek to Erase G****red Terms Such as ‘Father, Mother, Son, Daughter’ By Mimi Nguyen Ly

Leaders in the House of Representatives announced on Friday a rules package for the 117th Congress that includes a proposal to use “g****r-inclusive language” and eliminate g****red terms such as “‘father, mother, son, daughter,” and more.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Rules Committee Chairman James McGovern (D-Mass.) announced on Friday that the rules package includes changes that would “honor all g****r identities by changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be g****r neutral.”

A separate announcement from McGovern (pdf) said that the Democratic rules package will make “Changes [to] pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be g****r neutral or removes references to g****r, as appropriate, to ensure we are inclusive of all Members, Delegates, Resident Commissioners and their families—including those who are nonbinary.”

Terms to be striked from clause 8(c)(3) of rule XXIII, the House’s Code of Official Conduct, as outlined in the proposed rules (pdf), include “father, mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, first cousin, nephew, niece, husband, wife, father-in-law, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, stepfather, stepmother, stepson, stepdaughter, stepbrother, stepsister, half brother, half sister, grandson, [and] granddaughter.”

Such terms would be replaced with “parent, child, sibling, parent’s sibling, first cousin, sibling’s child, spouse, parent-in-law, child-in-law, sibling-in-law, stepparent, stepchild, stepsibling, half-sibling, [and] grandchild.”

According to the proposed rules, “seamen” would be replaced with “seafarers,” and “Chairman” would be replaced with “Chair” in Rule X of the House.

Pelosi and McGovern said that the overall package “includes sweeping ethics reforms, increases accountability for the American people, and makes this House of Representatives the most inclusive in history.”

The rules package includes removing floor privileges from former congress members who have been convicted of crimes related to their House service or e******n.

It would also make it “a violation of the Code of Official Conduct for a Member, officer, or employee of the House to disclose the identity of a whistleblower.”

It also establishes a new Select Committee on Economic Disparity and Fairness in Growth, to “investigate, study, make findings, and develop recommendations on policies, strategies, and innovations” to “[empower] American economic growth while ensuring that no one is left out or behind in the 21st Century Economy.”

The rules package will be introduced and v**ed on once the new Congress convenes.

As to the source of the Hydrogen gas (if in fact that is what caused the explosion), it would have come from the large number of batteries that serve as a backup in the event of a power failure. Thus the warning from the system designed to detect such gas. The more I think about this though, the less likely this seems to be as the source of the explosion. That would be a lot of Hydrogen Gas to cause that much damage.

You may wish to listen to this explanation of the explosion given by Simon Parks. Quite a fascinating gentlemen whose advice and comments should not be dismissed out of hand.

From the article you quote:
"There was a massive smallpox epidemic during the American Revolution.

Washington quarantined the infected, refused to let people from hot spots travel to his army, and even sent a thousand soldiers to Boston to prevent the spread there."

Right, so what do all those who "embrace science and enlightened knowledge" now do, they lockdown the "healthy" individuals rather than those most vulnerable, i.e. the elderly and those with co-morbidities.

The article makes it sound like "the science" is of one mind when in fact, the majority of doctors, virologists, and epidemiologists opine that we are doing the exact opposite of what "the science" suggests. You do not lockdown the healthy population!

Speaking of Lockdowns, I recommend you watch the interview with Catherine Austin Fitts regarding the information she provides for the documentary that will be released called "Planet Lockdown".
