Austin City Hall Is Now Occupied by a Tent
City With Machete-Wielding 'Security'

Original Article

Mayor Steve Adler’s Austin is still getting worse. He led the explosion of homeless camping citywide and the defunding of police. Police are leaving in droves, crime is spiking hard, and homeless camping has spread serious blight all over the city. Now that blight is concentrating downtown, thanks to another of Adler’s addle-brained decisions.(Snip)Now, because the voters have spoken, the ban is being phased back in citywide. But city hall is occupied. A tent city with its own machete-wielding “security” squats on space on which it has always been illegal to camp. Mayor Steve Adler is doing nothing about it.

No conservative voters ever elected the mayor and city council. The city of Austin is lop-sided with looney libs.

Why doesn't the Texas Governor order the Texas Rangers to take charge of law enforcement in Austin and be done with it.

The solution is simple. This incompetent boob of a mayor, Adler, is a slimey personal injury attorney and is very wealthy. He owns very valuable commercial real estate in downtown Austin. Since he is responsible for this particular crisis and obviously cares so much for the homeless, he should have no problem with the city annexing the buildings that he owns, breaking open the doors and allowing the homeless to occupy his property. He is wealthy and doesn't ''need'' it. He has plenty of room.

I would invite ALL the Homeless in Austin to camp out in the Mayor's Yard...Front, Back, Patio etc. It would also be nice if the Homeless did the same for ALL politicians in Austin. You should thank them for their generosity in sharing public spaces...so Pay them a Visit and be sure to wreck everything you see...No problem, You get a Pass!

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted lives the world over for more than a year. Its death toll will soon reach three million people. Yet the origin of pandemic remains uncertain: The political agendas of governments and scientists have generated thick clouds of obfuscation, which the mainstream press seems helpless to dispel. In what follows I will sort through the available scientific facts, which hold many clues as to what happened, and provide readers with the evidence to make their own judgments. I will then try to assess the complex issue of blame, which starts with, but extends far beyond, the government of China.

COVID-19 Vaccine-Linked Blood Clots

A German team of researchers this week said they may have discovered what causes rare blood clots in some COVID-19 vaccine recipients. Rolf Marschalek, a professor at Goethe University in Frankfurt who has been involved in studies looking into the rare clotting condition caused by the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine, said his researcher showed the issue may be triggered due to adenovirus vectors. An adenovirus—a common cold virus that can’t replicate—is the primary mechanism used by both the AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, delivering the genetic instructions for the spike protein of the virus into the recipient’s body. Meanwhile, vaccines made by Moderna and Pfizer use mRNA technology.

Last week, we discussed Rebekah Jones, the crazy lady who wrote a 342-page telenovela about her ex-lover, Garrett Sweeterman, then went on to fame and fortune by claiming Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was faking his state’s spectacularly low COVID numbers. Before the media turned Jones into their next Erin Brockovich, they might have done 10 seconds of Googling to find out that Jones’ past includes stalking, battery on a police officer, repeated incarcerations, an institutionalization, an ankle monitor, a restraining order and court-ordered medication. And that’s long before the DeSantis administration hired her as a web designer. These infractions are contained not only in police reports and court filings, but in her

The COVID-19 pandemic is ending with mass vaccinations. So is the national quarantine. The riots, arson, and looting of the 2020 summer are sputtering out—leaving violent crime in their wake. The acrimony over the 2020 election fades. Trump Derangement Syndrome became abstract when Donald Trump left office(Snip) the American people are slowly regaining their senses after the epidemic of mass hysteria and insanity that gripped the nation in 2020. But Americans will wonder whether what Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and the hard Left wrought last year will last when the nation is no longer gripped by 2020 madness.

The New York Times is boo-hooing that Putin is putting pressure on Twitter to ban his critics. That complaint is rich. The NYT and the rest of the anti-American media pressed Twitter to ban President Donald John Trump and his supporters. NYT sobbed, "Russia is increasingly pressuring Google, Twitter and Facebook to fall in line with Kremlin internet crackdown orders or risk restrictions inside the country, as more governments around the world challenge the companies’ principles on online freedom." The companies oppose online freedom. If not, Google's YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook would not be censoring conservatives. They would adopt the old AOL chatroom policy of banning swear words but not ideas.

Newsweek ran a column by two blacktivists, under the headline, "Stop Saying 'People of Color' When You Mean Black." When did white stop being a color? This is woke to the woke-th degree.

Everything about a grand jury is supposed to be kept secret to protect the innocent (5th Amendment issue). However, if the motives of the prosecutor are political, they want to exploit Lawfare by leaking information to media. This is the process Nancy Pelosi called “the wrap-up smear“, only this time it is being coordinated with Lawfare.Create a fraudulent accusation; then leak (or merchandise) the accusation to media; then “merchandise” the media report of the leak as evidence to support the fraudulent accusation. This is precisely what Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance is doing with a leaked story about his grand jury against President Trump.

It’s the jab or the job. Employers are allowed under federal law to require workers to get a COVID-19 vaccine before they can physically return to the workplace, according to updated guidance issued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Friday. But they must provide “reasonable accommodations” for workers who refuse the shots because of a disability—including pregnancy—or for religious reasons, the agency said. The decision may mean unvaccinated employees could be required to wear masks, or to work remotely. The EEOC’s rules also gave the green light to companies offering incentives as a means of encouraging staffers to get vaccinated,

Rice said she requested Cullors' help in re-launching a federal investigation into her son’s death. But short of exchanging a few emails, her pleas never garnered face time with the Black Lives Matter executive director.

One of the constants in Joe Biden’s political life for the past 12 years is his completely inappropriate obsession with little girls. Over the years, we’ve seen endless videos of him groping, sniffing, and whispering to prepubescent little girls. Well, he’s back, this time flirting with a little girl and commenting on how old and attractive she looks. There’s a reason we talk about “dirty old men” and Joe is it. There is no evidence that Joe has ever sexually assaulted a child. However, there is evidence that his public behavior with children is creepy and inappropriate.

It’s because the theory was suppressed for more than a year by corporate media fact-checkers and their allies in Big Tech.The pages of The New York Times and The Washington Post have been filled with articles in recent weeks about the newfound potential legitimacy of the lab-leak theory. The theory posits that COVID-19 was accidentally released from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China, potentially after being genetically engineered as a part of “gain-of-function” research.Evidence for the lab-leak theory has
