Leaders put their people first.

After the recent debacle in the Oval office X has exploded with comments supporting both sides of the very public spat.  The anti-trump crowd has decided the narrative is that Zelensky was the only true leader in the Oval office that day.  They could not be more wrong.  A real leader will do what is right for their people even if they find it distasteful.  Zelensky did not do that.

It does not matter if you agree with what Zelensky said, it was still wrong for him to say it in the oval office in front of the cameras.  Ukraine cannot survive without help from The US.  Do you think he will get that help now?  He should have bit his tongue signed the deal and then used the good will to get more aid but his ego would not let him.  His ego just got more of his people killed.  That is not leadership.

Zelensky did the wrong thing at the wrong time.  What he did should be a cautionary tale for Canadians politicians but I doubt it will be.  Canada like the Ukraine is completely dependent on the US.  Despite all the recent chest thumping and fake patriotism any rational observer would conclude that Trump is right.  Canada really is not a sovereign nation.  How can you be a sovereign nation when you depend on a foreign nation for your economy and national defense?

Canada has always been able to pretend to be independent because despite the best efforts of our brain dead politicians the US has always been benevolent toward us.  It has always shocked me that the US would treat us so kindly when most Canadian politicians have behaved exactly as Zelensky just did.  The only real exception was Stephen Harper.

Liberals and the media hate Stephen Harper but Harper was easily the best Prime Minister in my lifetime.  Sadly being the best Canadian Prime Minister is like being the least ugly person at an ugly convention.  I don’t think Harper was a particularly good Prime Minister he just was not as bad as all the rest. There was one thing about Harper, however, that I always respected.  Stephen Harper knew when to keep his mouth shut.

Harper was Prime Minister when both George Bush and Barrack Obama was President.  Bush and Obama are very different men.  Harper could not have liked both men equally yet he had good relations with both.  In fact I don’t know if Harper liked either man and that is the point.  Harper knew that Canada was dependent on the US and that it was not a good idea to antagonize the American president.  He kept his mouth shut.  If Zelensky was a leader he would have done the same.

How do you give a life back?

I saw this short video on X.  Sorry I can’t embed it.  For some reason sometimes I can embed X videos but most times I cannot.  The video is just a small portion of a longer interview Dr. Pierre Kory had with Tucker Carlson.  In the clip Dr. Kory states emphatically that while long COVID exists most of the time it is just a vaccine injury.  He differentiates by saying we have long COVID and long Vax.  The symptoms are largely the same the difference being long Vax is more prevalent and more severe.

For 3 years it was verboten to say that long COVID was a vaccine injury.  The retort was always that long COVID existed before the vaccines so the vaccines had nothing to do with it.  That is just deflection.  Myocarditis also existed before the vax but it was rare until the vax. Despite all the evidence that obvious lie was enough to deny the existence of long Vax for 3 years.  This is incredible when you consider that we should have expected to see long COVID from the Jabs.

The COVID jabs are the worst idea of all time.  They are a medical treatment that cannot be targeted or controlled.  There is no way to control which cells are affected, how much spike proteins will be produced, or for how long the affected cells will continue to produce spike proteins.  There is no off switch.  This is quite literally a disaster waiting to happen.  We should have expected autoimmune diseases from a treatment with the potential to keep your body flooded with toxins indefinitely.

Autoimmune diseases are no laughing matter.  They can range from mild to severe.  It can be debilitating or even deadly when your body starts attacking itself.

She experienced no immediate side effects, but in July 2021, Mrs Burnette developed ‘unbearable’ pain in both of her hips. She was told she had arthritis at 31 years old and had to use a wheelchair when the pain made it too hard to walk.

Believing her pain was something else, another doctor ordered an MRI, which revealed Mrs Burnette’s hip bones were literally rotting, and she underwent her first hip replacement in December 2021. The second followed a few months later in 2022.

A perfectly healthy 34 year old health care worker is now confined to a wheel chair and relies on her 10 year old son for care.

‘My 10 year old has really stepped up and my husband, he works very hard for us, especially with me losing [my job]. He’s really been an amazing caretaker and taken over. 

Mrs. Burnette made the mistake of trusting government.  Her trust cost her life.  She is still alive of course but what is the quality of her life now?  I would not be able to live with myself if my life was a burden on my 10 year old child.  I don’t even want to be a burden on my adult children.  My mother died after a long slow decline where she became more and more dependent on her children.  I don’t know how she felt about this but it must have been hard to enjoy the last few years of her life.  My mother was in her late 70s relying on sons in their 50s.  I can’t even imagine someone in their 30s dependent on a 10 year old.

The government took independence from Mrs. Burnette.  They stole her ability to care for her own children.  The things taken from Mrs. Burnette can never be given back.  I can’t think of anything more evil than that.
