Part of it is the covid lockdowns accidentally cancelled the flu. A lot of frail people who would've died of flu in 20,21 are dying of the next available thing in 2022.

IOW the 2022 surplus deaths includes a one-off lump of deaths deferred from previous years.

... it was “not clear what might be driving this” but partly it may be explained by the flu all but disappearing in 2020 and 2021.

“There were less people dying from respiratory illness early on [compared with] what would have been pre-pandemic normal,” she said.

“Those people tend to be more frail and have other underlying conditions, so those people may have lived an extra year or two because they didn’t die of flu but might be dying now.

“That might be one of the things that’s going on.”

Actuaries are more credible than Academics IMO. Actuaries focus on finding the truth for real, because insurance companies depend on reliable statistics to make money. Accuracy matters and it can be objectively measured.

Whereas Academics have more freedom to, shall we say, explore outside the bounds of reality.

... Jean-Pierre sidestepped the question, suggesting that Musk had an ulterior motive for leaking files revealing the company’s internal discussions.

“We see this as an interesting coincidence, and it’s a distraction,” Jean-Pierre told reporters. She claimed that Musk “haphazardly” released the Twitter files, which were a “distraction that is full of old news, if you think about it. And at the same time, Twitter is facing very real and very serious questions about the rising volume of anger, hate and anti-Semitism on their platform, and how they're letting it happen.”

When the DS made Twitter a public company, they never thought anyone would buy all of it.

That oversight made twitter vulnerable.

The safeguard with state level power is that people can vote with their feet and move to a different state.

That safeguard goes away when power is centralised at a national or international level, because people cant freely leave those broader jurisdictions.

I reckon you're right. Julie Green says God will fix the problem in a way that is unmistakably from God. Pedes waiting for a dramatic human solution may well be disappointed.

Twitter is a private business, and Rothschilds is a serial lagger.

Twitter could easily do 'community safety' by filtering Rothschilds feed so that Mike doesn't see the posts he would lag about :-)

Call it 'safe feed' and sell it to the checkmarks as a premium add-on.

Maybe he identifies as a minimalist. He's into mars colonisation, his business is space, where, ironically, space is at a premium. Excessive physical posessions would be a burden to a space dude.

I'm enjoying the movie.

memes like this give GAW a vibe of joyful audience participation, like fans dancing at a Rocky Horror show.

Hmm. Lee said the quiet part loud.

The bigger point here, though, is that Lee wants Kanye and Candace to understand statements like the ones they're putting out in the world -- namely that George died from a fentanyl OD and pre-existing conditions, but not Derek Chauvin's knee -- are false and hurtful.

Lee tells us that type of rhetoric undermines the Floyd family's efforts to pass legislation, like the George Floyd Policing Act, and their work at large. He also says it deflects blame from the officers who've been convicted...

Ok. So "compliance officers" wanted to dump Epstein...

Who initiated the dumping of Kanye? Compliance Officers too? or a Karen in public relations?

Prophetic.

Today I noticed a ukraine flag flying on the district council office.

Got home to an email from that council grifting for money, telling us they need a "special rate increase".

No shit, The time from seeing the flag to being panhandled was 10 minutes.

As an Aussie taxpayer I reckon we should ship those truck bodies back home. Park them on the lawn at Parliament House until the war is over. Call it a monument to the brave souls lost in ukraine.

He put his hatred of you aside to become your President.

Needs verification, but yuge if true.

Interesting. Dee's tweet is ~1 month ago, the same time the video was unblocked.

He also tweeted something similar, after Jan 6 2020, shortly before the video was taken down.

So Dee's views on us using the song have not changed in the 2 years. But a month ago someone agreed to license this song for this video. Why? What changed?

Yep. The music is licensed now. Copyright strike for the music will be YouTube's excuse for removing this post in the Jan 6 'insurrection' purge.

Indeed. Re-revealed just in time for the midterms, with the media going beserk about Trump dropping q hints.

It's so elegantly convenient, almost like there was a plan.
