In Liechtenstein.

Liechtenstein has long been recognized as one of the most free and prosperous countries in the world. However, there has been little analysis of Liechtenstein’s development because the scant research that existed was in German and therefore inaccessible to most American scholars. Furthermore, many saw no need to study Liechtenstein, viewing it as an accident of history with an anachronistic political system. Liechtenstein’s monarchy, unlike the monarchies in most other European states, retains extensive powers and is involved in the day-today operations of government. In fact, in 2003, Liechtensteiners voted to give the monarchy even more power, prompting the BBC to remark that they had “voted to make their prince an absolute monarch again.”

Much else has to do with the smallness of the small nation and with its overly intelligent and educated (and homogenous) population.

So yeah, about that Constitutional crisis:

A funny thing happened, however, on the way to the courthouse. Two things, actually. First, the jury forewoman in Stone’s case outed herself as a die-hard Democrat who despises President Trump and his supporters as well as a former congressional candidate and far-left activist who still buys into the Russian collusion scam. She came out to defend the honor of the prosecutors in Stone’s case but ended up revealing that, while Judge Jackson silenced Roger Stone from speaking to the public during his trial, the forewoman of the jury was busy posting daily anti-Trump polemics. Second, rather than cowering in intimidation, President Trump took the opportunity of an “emergency meeting” of the federal judges to publicly ask that they look into the well documented FISA Court fraud and the Judiciary’s role in perpetrating the greatest political scandal in our nation’s history: President Obama’s use of the CIA and FBI to spy on the campaign of a presidential candidate from the opposing party and the subsequent use of such criminally obtained information to launch the Mueller probe and overturn the result of the 2016 election.

And, the branches were never coequal, being introduced in order. Congress having largely abdicated, that leaves the executive. Jump!

Race, that is. Otherwise, how could a virus be genetically predisposed to pick one group over another? Some wise college students surely have the answer.

The state University at Albany is investigating whether an off-campus coronavirus-themed party violated the college’s student code of conduct, the university confirmed Thursday.

Asian American Alliance, a university student organization, condemned the party hosted by students last weekend, saying it was insensitive and racist. A statement on the alliance’s Instagram account said the virus “has led to not only mass stereotyping of Asian people, but also hundreds of deaths across the world.”

Oh, wait.

The virus is bad enough. If this party happened as alleged, then it was in poor taste. Seeking punishment via an evil “code of conduct” is as bad or worse, unAmerican. But, through their demand, the Asian students make an interesting admission: “Diseases that affect non-white populations are radicalized…” Well, only Asians have died from the nCoV thus far. Interesting, is it not? A better demand might be for answers about how the thing either mutated or was designed (radicalized, if you will). Who could have benefited?

Will we ever get the full number? O. 10. 12s. 100. 109. And counting.

Keltz, who said he had concussion symptoms for days, is among 109 soldiers diagnosed with traumatic brain injuries in the wake of last month’s attack, a figure that has steadily risen as more troops report symptoms and get medical screening.

414,000 TBI cases in the past two decades. The very high cost of Empire.

The War on Brains

This has been out for a while, maybe it’s the grey matter loss that prevented the press from realizing that smartphones rewire brains. Just like drug addiction.

Smartphone addiction physically changes the shape and size of the human brain in a similar way to the organ of a drug addict, a study has found.

Images taken by an MRI scanner revealed the brains of people with SPA (smartphone addiction) have lower grey matter volume in some key parts of the brain.

The images also revealed decreased activity in the brains of smartphone addicts compared to non-addicts.

Similar patterns and trends of dwindling grey matter have also been recorded in the mind of drug addicts.

Our diets too.

Hawks Fly Away

So long, fiscal hawks! These rare birds were to the national debt what conservatives, in general, are to everything else – useless.

But with Trump in office, “we’re a lot less interested as a party,” the former budget chief said, calling the growing deficit “extraordinarily disturbing.”

The White House budget proposal released last week abandons Trump’s deficit cutting promises and relies on economic growth assumptions most economists dismiss as unrealistic to pay down the debt.

The Congressional Budget Office predicts the deficit will surpass $1 trillion and government debt will reach 81 percent of GDP by the end of September.

“The fiscal hawks are clearly an endangered species,” Bill Hoagland, a former Senate budget staffer, told AFP. “I really can’t pinpoint anybody that’s willing to step up and clear the plate.”

This is going to end in disaster for America. It’s just a question of what kind of disaster and when. The debt will never be paid down. That raptor flew the coup long ago, back when the hawks still strutted and ruffled their own feathers. It’s going to be canceled – along with all the other fiat-usury-based garbage. Practical politics will fail again, leaving the dissolution to the market and to history. Cue the Breakup song! But, not today. Party today like it’s Trumpteen-99.

The legal busybodies in NY are hell-bent on controlling everyone and everything. They want to ban smoking in private homes.

When asked if the proposed legislation is going to far, Gonzalez said, “It’s not going too far. We’re heading in that direction anyway. We can’t smoke in restaurants. We can’t smoke in buildings. We can’t smoke inside the theaters. There are parks, there are beaches that you can’t smoke in. We are headed there.”

…

“When I get the push-back from individuals that say, ‘No, you can’t stop me from smoking,’ I say ‘Why not?’” Gonzalez said.

In the direction of going too far … headed there. Why not? Good, pointless question today. In the New York of 200 years ago, the reason would have been the tar, feathers, and rail-running.

It would look a lot like this BS.

I honed in on this one because of the headline that the USA ranked 39th in the world for raising children. We’ve slipped. But, I prefer honest metrics, which these globalists don’t even pretend to offer. Rather, half of their metrics is “climate change,” the other half is … (Surprise!) communism.

But, like many other false flags, this “right-right” “terror” attack won’t hold water.

A neo-Nazi gunman who shot nine people dead in a terror attack on two shisha bars in Germany before killing his mother and then himself was a far-right conspiracy theorist who was obsessed by aliens, mind control, Satanic sacrifice and government surveillance.

Tobias Rathjen, 43, detailed his extremist views in a 24-page manifesto posted to a now-deleted website in which he vowed to wipe out entire countries including Israel, most of the Middle East, and some Asian nations.

He also wanted to target North Africa, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Germans who he considered to be ‘impure’, writing: ‘I can imagine halving the population.’

The manifesto also details his belief that he was being watched by the government and various anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

Yeah, so where is this 24-page manifesto? Is it synonymous with the 1:42 video? I watched that and the man speaking is a fool. The satanists controlling Amerika are not invisible. They operate in plain sight. And, their counter-insurgency ploys are transparent. Nice try.
