i spoke with a couple of ultra sound techs, they arent’t bothering with being ‘on call’, they are sleeping in the hospitals for call. also, the amount of rule out clot scans have gone up across the system by a factor of 5 from what i can tell.

Scientists in the UK working as advisors for the government have expressed regret for using what they now admit to be “unethical” and “totalitarian” methods of instilling fear in the population in order to control behaviour during the pandemic, according to a report.
The London Telegraph reports the comments made by Members of the Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Behaviour (SPI-B), a sub-committee of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) the government’s chief scientific advisory group.
The report quotes a briefing from March 2020, as the first lockdown was decreed, that stated the government should drastically increase “the perceived level of personal threat” that the virus poses because “a substantial number of people still do not feel sufficiently personally threatened”.

Supreme Court rules warrantless home gun confiscation is unconstitutional in 9-0 vote
9 nuthin’.
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that warrantless gun confiscation from Americans’ homes is unconstitutional, voting unanimously on the side of a Rhode Island man whose firearms were taken by law enforcement without a warrant after his wife expressed concerns that he might hurt himself.
According to Caniglia v Strom, a lower court had previously determined that police confiscating the guns without a warrant fell under the Fourth Amendment’s “community caretaking” exception, but a 9-0 vote from the nation’s top court struck down that ruling.

This is the website retired military have set up to communicate efforts to remove CRT from DoD. If you’ve heard about the 124 retired military who wrote the open letter about marxism in the military, this is their site.
The largest undercover force the world has ever known is the one created by the Pentagon over the past decade. Some 60,000 people now belong to this secret army, many working under masked identities and in low profile, all part of a broad program called “signature reduction.” The force, more than ten times the size of the clandestine elements of the CIA, carries out domestic and foreign assignments, both in military uniforms and under civilian cover, in real life and online, sometimes hiding in private businesses and consultancies, some of them household name companies.
The unprecedented shift has placed an ever greater number of soldiers, civilians, and contractors working under false identities, partly as a natural result in the growth of secret special forces but also as an intentional response to the challenges of traveling and operating in an increasingly transparent world. The explosion of Pentagon cyber warfare, moreover, has led to thousands of spies who carry out their day-to-day work in various made-up personas, the very type of nefarious operations the United States decries when Russian and Chinese spies do the same.

from the comments:
The author, William Arkin, is a former military intelligence analyst who had a Top Secret clearance under the Carter Administration and the first part of the Reagan administration.
Arkin was fired from his position and was stripped of his security clearance after providing a list of ALL the American nuclear weapons locations to an intelligence officer from the Soviet Union.
The Reagan Administration struggled with a decision whether to try him for treason or not. Ultimately, it was decided to just “release him” from service in disgrace. The Administration feared that a public trial would give him a pulpit to divulge more Top Secret information to our enemies.
Later, Arkin publicly released a list of all the American Nuclear locations as well as known Soviet Nuclear locations.
He has authored several books, like this article, that takes a few facts and combines them with conjecture. He even worked his way into a job with NBC News.
One thing is perfectly clear about the author, he hates EVERYTHING about the United States Armed Forces — the organization who relieved him of his duties and threw him out of the Army.

Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier
PENTAGON PLANS TO MONITOR SOCIAL MEDIA OF MILITARY PERSONNEL FOR EXTREMIST CONTENT
AS PART OF the Biden administration’s crackdown on domestic extremism, the Pentagon plans to launch a pilot program for screening social media content for extremist material, according to internal Defense Department documents reviewed by The Intercept, as well as a source with direct knowledge of the program.
An extremism steering committee led by Bishop Garrison, a senior adviser to the secretary of defense, is currently designing the social media screening pilot program, which will “continuously” monitor military personnel for “concerning behaviors,” according to a Pentagon briefing in late March. Although in the past the military has balked at surveilling service members for extremist political views due to First Amendment protections, the pilot program will rely on a private surveillance firm in order to circumvent First Amendment restrictions on government monitoring, according to a senior Pentagon official. Though the firm has not yet been selected, the current front runner is Babel Street, a company that sells powerful surveillance tools including social media monitoring software.

I’m guessing the “senior Pentagon official” isn’t a Constitutional attorney.
The fact that they contract it out doesn’t make it any less of a 1st Amendment violation.

The fact that it’s a violation of anything hasn’t stopped anybody yet, nor has it resulted in any consequences for anybody. See FBI/CIA
The ATF has unleashed their proposed rule to change the “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms” and it’s as ugly as it sounds.
If enacted, 2021R-05 would drastically change the Federal definition of a firearm receiver. For starters, this proposed rule would outlaw 3D printing, parts kits, 80% lowers, and other home-built firearms and would apply FFL rules to individuals.
Under the proposed rules, any “externally visible housing or holding structure” will be considered a frame or receiver.
Not only are the definitions ambiguous and ripe for arbitrary enforcement, but the proposed rules also destroy any clearly understood definition of what a gun is and what parts are and give absolute control to the tyrannical ATF to decide if you are breaking their enigmatic B.S. regulations.
https://www.firearmspolicy.org/oppose_atf_2021r05
I don’t know what a frame or receiver is but there ya go
@ eaglesoars:
That’s one of those completely unenforceable stupid ideas somebody came up with.
For an AR-style rifle, the receiver is in two parts, known as the upper and lower receivers. They’re connected by two pins. The upper receiver is attached to the barrel; the lower receiver holds the trigger assembly, grip and magazine well.
Under current law, the only part that has to have a serial number is the lower receiver. It’s the only part that has to be transferred by an FFL. The rest can be bought off the shelf and swapped out however you like.
On a semi-auto pistol, the frame is the serialized part. Basically, everything that’s not contained in the slide. Again, you can freely swap out barrels and slides (although some manufacturers do put serial numbers on the barrel, as well (Glock, for example), it’s not required by law, and it doesn’t have to match the frame’s serial number.
For shotguns and bolt action rifles, the receiver is the main portion of the gun where all the moving parts are. They’ve not as modular as an AR or a semi-auto pistol, so people don’t really swap major parts that often unless something breaks. Same with revolvers. The serial number is on the frame.

@ eaglesoars:
The part that’s going to cause huge problems is the fact that there are literally hundreds of millions of guns in circulation that don’t comply with their proposed new rule. Presumably, they’d be “grandfathered” in. But how would that work as a practical matter? I know I don’t have receipts handy that show the date that I purchased any of my guns to establish that they’re exempt. I doubt that most people do.

Funny that isn’t it? People had the common sense to realize that a disease that had a very low infection rate (at its worst about 300 per 100K population in a week) was not that threatening.
So, either these government people had information about the origins of this disease that led to the concern it could be really bad or they were all wanting to use this as an opportunity to add more totalitarian control mechanisms to their respective countries.

“Chris Varney, Judge of Elections says they were initially under the impression that it was a problem with all ballots, but then determined it was only a problem with Republican ballots,” local news reported. The election official was unaware how many other precincts were experiencing the same issue, but noted it was occurring in numerous locations across Fayette County.
