We’ve Spent Four Years Dealing With Allegations From a Russia Disinformation Campaign

U.S. Attorney John Durham discovered that the primary sub-source for British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s discredited dossier was investigated by the FBI as a possible “threat to national security,” but the bureau never told the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and used the dossier anyway. //

In the release, we see that as far back as 2005, the primary sub-source for the Steele dossier was suspected of being a Russian agent. This revelation heavily implies that the FBI knew this could be an attempt at Russian disinformation and that the information could not possibly be reliable. How do we know they knew that? They never brought that investigation up to the FISA court when obtaining warrants. If they had, there would have been a big pause from the court in granting those warrants.

The U.S. Postal Service is investigating how three trays of mail, including absentee ballots, ended up in a ditch line in Wisconsin, a swing state whose voters could prove crucial in the upcoming elections.

The Outagamie County Sheriff’s Office said the mail was found around 8 a.m. Monday morning near the intersection of highways 96 and CB, near the Appleton International Airport.

Backfire: Dems Suddenly Pivoting to Promoting In Person Voting, the Reason Why Tells You Everything

RBe
@RBPundit
Democrats for months: "OMG, in-person voting is TOO DANGEROUS. Trump wants people to die!!!!!"

Democrats learn that their voters are too stupid to follow mail-in ballot instructions

Democrats now: "We need to vote in person. It's the safest way."

FBI Agents Complained the Flynn Investigation Was Inappropriately Held Open in a Search for Incriminating Evidence

But these email exchanges released today show that the agents working on the Crossfire Razor investigation had been intending to shut down the investigation as long as 60 days prior to the drafting of the order to close it down, but the matter was being kept open by FBI management using the excuse of getting NSLs which were not thought by the agents to be useful — and there was no intent to use them because of the fact that the results would not have meaningful information.

These emails further support the argument that the Flynn investigation was corrupted by motives of individuals in FBI management to simply keep digging on General Flynn until they could find something — anything — as leverage to use against him in an effort to force him out of the Trump Administration.

Democrats are pivoting to embrace in-person voting - Axios

Democrats spent the early months of the coronavirus pandemic urging their base to vote absentee. But as threats of U.S. Postal Service delays, Team Trump litigation and higher ballot rejection rates become clearer, many are pivoting to promote more in-person voting as well.

Why it matters: Democrats are exponentially more likely to vote by mail than Republicans this year — and if enough mail-in ballots are lost, rejected on a technicality or undercounted, it could change the outcome of the presidential election or other key races.

Trump’s New C19 Advisor Cites Research Showing Widespread Immunity! Calls out CDC Head Redfield’s False Testimony to Stunned Press

Vaccine scientists: "Antibodies against COVID-19 don't last. We need a vaccine to induce T-cell immunity"

Me: "Many people already have crossover T-cell immunity from common cold coronaviruses"

Vaccine scientists: "T-cells have no effect on herd immunity"

Me: "But...nevermind" //

One function of T-cells is to stimulate B-cells to produce antibodies. But T-cells can also fight off a virus even if you’re body doesn’t have the ability to generate antibodies by directly attacking and killing infected cells. //

2/ The pervasive misconception is that we have zero immunity against COVID-19. Based on this flawed understanding, epidemiologists projected that herd immunity is not reached until 60-70% are infected.

This is almost certainly wrong.

Of course, the media ignores this research

3/ While antibodies against COVID-19 may only last months, T cell immunity can remain protective for years.

In a study of 23 people who survived SARS in 2003, every single one had memory T cells that recognized the SARS virus 17 years later. (Nature)

4/ Moreover, blood samples from all 23 individuals showed “robust cross-reactivity” against SARS-CoV-2.

This can be called crossover immunity.

Crossover immunity is not limited to just people who were infected with SARS years ago though.
