The money came from a program called the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant. Signed into law by Trump in 2020 and championed by lawmakers including Sen. Chuck Schumer, it was established as a lifeline for struggling independent venues and arts groups during the pandemic.

But pop stars used the program as a piggy bank to keep the party going, reporting by Business Insider shows. Compared with those better-known programs, the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant had relatively strict eligibility requirements.

"...relatively strict eligibility requirements."? The US taxpayer still got billed $80,000 for Chris Brown's 33rd birthday party. "The bill included more than $29,000 for hookahs, bottle service, "nitrogen ice cream," and damages involving burn holes to rented couches."

Moderna is a sponsor of Yankee radio games. I usually don't listen to the interminable pre- and post game list of sponsors but I happened to do so once toward the end of the 2024 season. I looked it up and it turns out Moderna is/has been doing a lot of image advertising. Well--I'm convinced. I'm going to fly to California and see if I can get a Moderna shot for bird flu.

Susan: sounds like a great idea, see if you can book me the seat next to yours and we can elaborate on why we are sooo disappointed that the pond scum in DC didn’t manage to slip what was supposed to be a spending bill by us peasants.

Hey, maybe they should advertise during sporting events to improve their image

OTOH in this Tweet, it looks like Elon has a Terrible Towel over his shoulder.

Bill Gates of Hell is protecting himself and everyone he knows.

I am reminded of the 1956 Alfred Hitchcock movie titled "The Man Who Knew Too Much":

'Russian General Igor Kirillov warned the U.S. would attack its own Citizens with Biological Warfare. 

and...'Kirillov was the greatest Russian expert on the 46 US funded biolabs in Ukraine.'

The Good News, is that "Disease X" in the Congo was "just" severe Malaria:

The Bad News is they are still working on "identifying" and getting ready for Disease X. I'm sure a dozen labs would be very helpful to them in that regard.

"Who is involved in the preparedness planning for a Disease X pandemic?"

"I would say the bulk of the preparedness is happening with the WHO and other public health agencies like CDC, the European CDC, the UK Health Security Agency, as well as the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority at the NIH. It involves the United Nations, and essentially all levels of government, plus business organizations like the World Economic Forum. It trickles all the way down to the state and local health department levels as well as even individual hospitals and health care facilities. It also includes pharmaceutical companies that are thinking about vaccine platform technologies and how quickly they can ramp up as necessary.

This is really multisectoral because preparedness is not just medical countermeasures, it's also societal responses and business continuity."

Does Jay Bhattacharya know all about this?

Which approach fits right in with:

"Governance: A Whole of Society Approach"

Any question what the objective is?

From Dr. Robert Malone's Dec. 19 Substack article:

"There has been no significant change in the current threat assessment associated with Avian Influenza relative to July 2024. The CDC, which has recently been implicated in industrial-scale “PsyWar” deployment of Psychological Bioterrorism regarding COVID and has an organizational conflict of interest in promoting vaccines and vaccine uptake, characterizes the current public health risk as low.

My conclusion regarding the Newsom declaration of a “State of Emergency” for bird flu in California is that it is being driven by a hidden agenda."

Gov. Hair Gell is all about grabbing press and being seen as doing something.

Only result I noticed was no eggs at my local Costco tonight, probably due to panic Newsom created.

Oh no!--they're not going to kill more chickens!

They killed millions here in the Midwest during the last avian flu psy-op scare. Small-buiness raisers were especially hard hit.

The price of a dozen eggs is still high here in SE Wisconsin.

Thanks. I had meant to find out what Malone's take on this was, but somehow let it slip.

It’s all about leverage, right? If Trump is allowed to take office, he will then have nominal access to and control over the lists, programs, info, etc…..He will then have the leverage over the others, supposedly. But at the end of the day he will not be our savior and have it released out in the open to us to see. At least not much of it.

We've already been able to eliminate humanity for 75 years with nukes. But that required billions and whole state enterprises behind it....Now all it takes is a Biochem major and lab. Get right with God is what I tell everyone. I don't worry.

Lord Bebo @MyLordBebo

 Latvian foreign Mister was enraged by a Russian speaking cab driver … turned out he’s Ukranian.

This is literally the essence of this conflict.

They have no idea how Ukraine works nor what it is. Idiots half of Ukraine is speaks Russian natively. That’s the point.

That is so rich.

I used to take it as a compliment when my friends and coworkers in Moscow would tell me that my accent was "not foreign, just a little 'Pribaltisky'." Figured it not too shabby to be "in the neighborhood," at least. Little did I know that Estonian-/Latvian-accented Russian (this is back when they all learned it in school) was the butt of some of their very best hick or hayseed jokes. Figures, and undoubtedly worse now.
