Robert Malone: You Are The Population They Want To Control

Robert Malone: You Are The Population They Want To Control

Authored by Robert Malone via The Brownstone Institute,

Worldwide birthrate per 1,000 people follows a very predictable trend.

In “developed” and/or wealthy nations, the birthrate is low and in nations at the lower end of the economic development scale, the birthrate is high.

Nothing new there.

Many countries, including the US, have birthrates that either are too low to sustain current population levels or are stable. Since 1970, the population of people born in the US has been stable at below 300 million. In fact, some estimates show a decline in population. All of the population growth in the US during this time period has been due to immigration. That is why the USA has grown to 336 million people in 50 years. This trend has only increased in recent years.

There were a record 44.8 million immigrants living in the US in 2018, making up 13.7 percent of the nation’s population. This represents a more than fourfold increase since 1960, when 9.7 million immigrants lived in the US, accounting for 5.4 percent of the total US population.

For Jill and I growing up in a blue state, we were indoctrinated at an early age by the public school system that having two children was the responsible thing to do to save the planet from overpopulation. That careers were more important than having a large family. That women would find more fulfillment in a education and career, as opposed to staying at home. That women should defer motherhood until college and a career were firmed established. That this was the responsible path to take. Today, young women receive the same messaging from our government, our schools systems, and mainstream corporate media. 

This messaging by the US government is still as strident as when I was in my youth 50 to 60 years ago.

The truth is that UN’s Agenda 2030 asserts that migration is a human right.

What this means in practicality is that persons born in countries with high birthrates have a right to migrate into wealthy countries with low birth rates. 

To begin – migration is not a “human right.”

Property laws and nation states exist for a reason. To assert otherwise is to assert that there is a one-world government which is in control of migration. Another usurpation of authority by the UN and the WEF. 

This nation’s rules and regulations, our very Constitution do not apply to non-citizens. This is by design. Let’s abide by our Constitution and Bill or Rights, not UN agreements, such as Agenda 2030, which was signed by a US president and never ratified by the Senate.

Our country has done a fine job of convincing the American populace that large family size hurts families and individuals in aggregate. We were told that the reward of that, for better or worse, would be a stabilized population over time and preservation of the American way of life, environment, cultural heritage and associated economic opportunities for US citizens. And yet still they persist. This week, Kamala Harris specifically stated that a reduced population was key to children being able to breath and drink clean water. This is not the first time she has asserted this false narrative.

When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population, more of our children can breath clean air and drink clean water.”

– Kamala Harris

Yet, the Biden border crisis grows ever more urgent and the rate of illegal immigration continues to surge. It is a no brainer to think that an option to reduce population might be as simple as reducing immigration, if that was their true intent. 

The truth is that the US has a vibrant and amazing culture. A heritage built on independence, free speech, shared values, and strong work ethic. This heritage can easily be diluted by too much immigration. Just look what is happening France right now. Open migration policies have worked to cause a vast instability within the nation. France literally can no longer integrate so many people, with such different sets of cultural norms into their core national culture. This is not progress. 

Under globalism, the heterogeneous cultures throughout the world are being weaponized as a way to destroy diversity; a path towards enabling a single, globalized government controlled by the UN and the WEF. Which is precisely what open borders, the immigration policies of the UN and even Kamala Harris’ statements seem to be working towards. It is time to end this nonsense and get back to a closed and orderly immigration system.

There are over 8 billion people in the world. The US can not take all those that wish to immigrate. To think otherwise is foolish.

America has to be an independent and free nation. We need to rely on Americans for our goods and services. A strong economy is one that meets its own needs internally. Whereby goods, services, medical care, and energy are produced domestically. A strong nation doesn’t need to import low-wage earners to do its dirty work. The bizarre directive of reducing the naturally born population while importing new immigrants serves no functional purpose except to further globalize the USA.

By accepting large numbers of immigrants while reducing our own American population, we further regress as a nation, and we will continue to accelerate economic devastation of both middle class and urban poor citizens. A new world order where migration is a right, borders are open and the UN controls the ebb and flow of populations is ceding American nationalism and will destroy the American experiment in self-governance. 

Our government needs to stay out of the business of enforcing population measures.

Which brings me to the mRNA genetic shots. People worry that the mRNA jabs have some sequence or component, such as the lipid nano-particle or genetic code, which are causing sterility. And that these were intentionally designed to cause a decrease in fertility worldwide. This is not a completely unrealistic fear.

For years, there have been rumors of abortion vaccines and anti-fertility vaccines being developed in India and Africa. With evidence being presented for and against these rumors. But we do know for sure that China used forced sterilizations and forced abortions on its own citizens. Now, China worries that their population levels are crumbling rapidly. Government controls on family choices are immoral. The idea of a vaccine to control population is repugnant.

Which brings me to a newly published Nature paper that shows that using adeno-associated viral vectored techniques, cats can be permanently sterilized.

In this essay, I don’t want to get into the science behind this (let’s defer that to a later essay) but I do want to discuss the ethics of developing “gene therapy” techniques that rely on viral vectors for sterilization.

To begin with, such a fertility gene therapy technique using adeno-associated virus (AAV) “gene therapy” vectors could be accidentally or purposefully modified to be infectious. This requires a recombination event (rescue) of another related adenovirus, which could be a wild type. Once that happens, the viral vector could be replication competent: ergo infectious. Although AAV “gene therapy” vectors are not a full replicating virus; the truth is that in a research setting, using the full virus to create infectious products is relatively simple. It could be as simple as missing a purification step or a recombination event. If such a product were to escape or be released into the general cat population, it would be a disaster. If such a vector had a rescue event in an injected animal, it could literally create a new virus. What happens if it were to infect on other feline species, such as cheetahs, big cats, cougars or bobcats? There is a scenario whereby it could decimate the population of an endangered species or all the cats . Furthermore, there is a possibility that such a virus could jump species – even into humans. Adeno-associated viruses are respiratory viruses, so can spread easily. What happens then? 

Not to mention, we already know that NGOs and governments are willing to consider reducing population via vaccination or forced sterilization. Who is to say whether an organization, perhaps even one with the “best of intentions” in mind (or believing that “the ends justify the means”), would be willing to go there. After what we have experienced over the past three years, I would consider it in the realm of possibility. Kamala Harris, Bill Gates and the WEF and UN all have made their positions crystal clear. Population reduction is imperative. 

There must be more regulatory controls on biological research for both animals and humans. 

But in the meantime, we have to consider that the government doesn’t really care about population control.

You can know them by their actions, not their words. Their words endorse low birthrate as a pathway to population stabilization, but their actions enable rampant population growth due to immigration. The DATA indicate that what they really are striving for is a New World Order, whereby the UN becomes the dominant force of the world, with nation states nestled under their organizational structure. One in which out-migration combined with regional population control via government-enabled birth control (via both pharmaceuticals and deployed propaganda) is designed to augment that process of enabling populations born in economically disadvantaged regions to gain control of more economically advanced nations and infrastructure while destroying the cultures and politico/economic structures which have historically enabled the economic development of these more advanced regions.

IRS whistleblower: There was unanimous agreement to charge Hunter Biden with felonies — and not doing so violated DOJ policy

“The DOJ policy on this is that — their tax policy is that — if you have a felony with a misdemeanor, you have to charge the felony, and that’s to prevent inequitable treatment of taxpayers and they didn’t do that,” Ziegler claimed.

GOP rep screams at Dem for trolling him with insults in clash on LGBTQ organizations: ‘Snowflake can melt’

A House meeting was pushed to recess after two members of Congress got into a heated argument about purported “grooming” in gender ideology from LGBTQ organizations Tuesday. 

Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Wisc., and Rep. Andy Harris R-Md., became embroiled in a heated argument over whether tax dollars should be allocated to particular LGBT agendas

Harris said one of the organizations in question promoted communism and another – which bolstered chemical and surgical sex changes – offered support groups to 7-year-olds. 

“The same group promotes hormone replacement therapy and gender-affirming surgery. I don’t know what goes on in those support groups… And I’ll be darned if I want taxpayer dollars going to funding,” Harris said. 

ALASKA BOARD MEMBERS BRAWL OVER SILENCING DAD EXPOSING BOOK ON KINKS AND SEXTING: ‘I’M GOING TO INTERRUPT YOU’

Pocan, however, implied that Harris targeted these LGBT groups and those who vote against including those groups in funding were “bigots.” At one point, he swore during the meeting. 

Then a heated argument unfolded at the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development subcommittee. 

Pocan repeatedly accused Harris of being as a “snowflake” and a “bigot.” Harris responded by interjecting that it violated House rules and requested Pocan’s remarks be struck from the record. 

“How do you show you’re a bigot without saying you’re a bigot?” said Pocan, indirectly taking a jab at Harris. 

BIDEN ADMIN ‘WEAPONIZING’ FEDERAL AGENCY TO BLOCK PARENTS’ EFFORTS AT REMOVING ‘PORNOGRAPHY’ FROM SCHOOLS

Harris requested that the chair take down Rep. Pocan’s words from the committee filings, which Pocan thought was “ridiculous.”

“I know it’s a little warm outside and a snowflake can melt, but this is a little bit ridiculous,” Pocan retorted.

Pocan then said he would “respect” the members of the committee by removing everything they deemed offensive, and asked that the words “LGBT” be struck down for the record. 

“I will take back saying how you know you’re a bigot without saying you’re a bigot, because I think it’s self-evident, and I don’t need to put the word out,” Pocan said.

“Does that make you happy?” Pocan asked.

Stating that his words were “against House rules,” Harris asked again if the verbiage could be taken down.

“I’m going as far as to say anything that you should ever find offensive, I am glad to take away,” Pocan said before the committee went into recess.”What that means to me is you find me offensive.”

Video Of Deserted Mall And Streets In Downtown San Fran Reveals Democrats Destroyed City

Video Of Deserted Mall And Streets In Downtown San Fran Reveals Democrats Destroyed City

A recent poll commissioned by Probolsky Research found 60% of voters in San Francisco “disapprove” of Mayor London Breed’s performance, and only 22% believe she deserves re-election. There’s plunging confidence among the business community that progressive leadership in the crime-ridden metro can revive the poop-infested downtown area. Businesses are closing up shops in droves, while some building owners have stopped payments on malls and hotels as the city’s economic recovery appears bleak. 

San Francisco Chamber of Commerce CEO Rodney Fong recently drew a dire historical parallel of the faltering metro area to the 1906 earthquake: “We have a lot of work to do as residents are more pessimistic than ever.”

Marc Benioff, the chief executive officer of Salesforce, the city’s largest employer and anchor tenant in its tallest skyscraper, warned this week that the metro area is in trouble. 

Benioff offered this grim outlook: The downtown area is “never going back to the way it was” in pre-Covid times when workers commuted to offices daily.

“We need to rebalance downtown,” Benioff said, adding Breed needs to initiate a program to convert dormant office space into housing and hire additional law enforcement to restore law and order. 

San Francisco’s demise is much more than just the remote or hybrid work narrative, and a record 30% of office space is vacant. Remember, without office workers, local shops can’t thrive.

This leaves us with Youtuber METAL LEO, who walked the downtown area, revealing empty streets and closed-up stores.

He wrote in the description of the video, “Embarcadero Center is a commercial complex of five office towers, two hotels, a shopping center with more than 125 stores but only two remain open on three levels located in San Francisco, California.”

The video is an eye-opener of the economic collapse of the downtown area as it has transformed into a “ghost town” overnight. The exodus of companies and people is a vote of confidence that Breed’s progressive administration has failed. There are attempts to rebuild the downtown district, but that could take many years, meaning the city’s economic recovery won’t happen anytime soon.

Miss Manners: Why do some people place their coffee shop orders in the form of a question?

DEAR MISS MANNERS: Whenever I visit a coffee shop and approach the order-taker, I say something along the lines of, “I’d like an iced tea” or simply, “An iced tea, please.” Over the past few years, however, I’ve noticed that no one else does that anymore. Instead, they frame their orders as a question: “Can I have …?”

It seems odd to ask a shop if it’s okay to order something or to take my money. It also seems a bit juvenile, like a child visiting a friend’s home and politely asking for a glass of water from the friend’s mother, who is not a paid server.

IRS whistleblower’s lawyer: Prosecutors supported pressing charges against Hunter but were ‘shut down’

The attorney representing IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley said Thursday that President Biden appointed officials to “shut down” the possibility of prosecuting Hunter Biden for tax evasion, highlighting several instances the Department of Justice allegedly interfered to “curb” the probe into the first son.

Shapley, who served as the supervisor on the Biden investigation at the IRS and special agent Joseph Ziegler testified at the House Oversight Committee Wednesday about the “preferential treatment” they witnessed for the president’s family and the “obstruction of the normal investigative process” that allegedly occurred throughout the years-long federal investigation into Hunter Biden. 

In an interview Thursday, Shapley’s attorney Tristan Leavitt told Fox News’ Martha MacCallum that prosecutors in Delaware were “on board” with bringing charges against the younger Biden for tax evasion based on evidence presented by IRS investigators. However, that option was “shut down” by Biden-appointed officials once the investigation picked up speed.

FORMER FBI AGENT CONFIRMS KEY DETAILS OF HUNTER BIDEN WHISTLEBLOWER’S TESTIMONY, GOP SAYS

“Prosecutors in Delaware were on board. They sent it to Justice Department’s tax division and they recommended multiple felony charges for 2014 through 2019 as well as a number of misdemeanors. So it wasn’t just prosecutors versus investigators. Everybody was on board until the president appointed officials to shut the opportunities to prosecute down,” he said on “The Story.”

During a televised sit-down with Fox News’ Bret Baier last month and in testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee, Shapley alleged that DOJ prosecutors directed investigators to avoid asking witnesses questions about President Biden and chose not to collect search warrants related to the president’s son. Shapley also identified U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf as a key player who worked repeatedly to “limit” questioning related to Joe Biden.

Shapley said that Hunter Biden should have been charged with tax evasion for 2014, and false tax returns for 2018 and 2019 according to the evidence gathered by the IRS. With regard to the 2014 tax returns, Shapley said Hunter Biden did not report income from Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings. 

“We weren’t allowed to ask questions about ‘dad.’ We weren’t allowed to ask about ‘the big guy.’ We weren’t allowed to include certain names in document requests and search warrants,” Shapley said at the time. “So, you know, we were precluded from following that line of questioning.” 

Leavitt said Wolf oversaw the first stage of the “interference” as investigators began gathering evidence into Hunter’s tax history.

DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN MELTS DOWN, CLAIMS DOJ, FBI, IRS ‘KEEP DEMOCRACY IN CHECK’ DURING HUNTER BIDEN HEARING

“There’s really two different buckets of the interference. In terms of asking about that, these were decisions that the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office made and specifically U.S. attorney Leslie Wolf, she’s the one that repeatedly told them, you can’t ask about ‘the big guy’ or execute search warrants at the Biden residence or interview Hunter’s adult children, even though hunter was claiming tax deductions that involved those children,” the attorney said. “So all of those were areas where the investigation itself was curbed.”

Eventually, prosecutors recommended charges be brought against Hunter, Leavitt said. David Weiss, the Trump-appointed U.S. attorney for Delaware who was leading the investigation, referred the case to U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves and later to U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Martin Estrada. Both Graves – who donated to Biden’s 2020 campaign – and Estrada “rejected the opportunity” to press charges against the president’s son, Leavitt said.

WHISTLEBLOWER CONFIRMS ATTORNEY WHO DONATED TO BIDEN’S 2020 CAMPAIGN ‘REFUSED’ TO BRING CHARGES AGAINST HUNTER

Weiss lacked the authority to bring charges own in Delaware and was “constantly hamstrung, limited, and marginalized” by DOJ officials as he sought to make prosecutorial decisions,” according to testimony from Shapley. 

“So, Weiss had nowhere he could bring the cases because that’s how those are required to be charged,” Leavitt told MacCallum.

The congressional probe, led by House Republicans, has centered around Shapley and Ziegler’s claim there was a pattern of “slow-walking investigative steps” into Hunter Biden, which included instructions not to speak with him at his residence, tipping the president’s son and staff off about the ongoing efforts and delaying enforcement actions in the months before the 2020 presidential election.

In June, the Justice Department announced that Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax as part of what critics called a “sweetheart plea deal” that is expected to keep him out of prison. The president’s son also agreed to enter into a pretrial diversion agreement with regard to a separate charge of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.
