Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Anthony Fauci’s Lies vs Rep. Fortenberry’s Lies – Guess Who Is Being ProsecutedIf there is any doubt that “good government” laws exist exclusively as weapons to punish conservatives, whereas our entrenched deep state ruling class is immune from the same laws, consider the cases of Jeff Fortenberry and Anthony Fauci. FORTENBERRY US Congressman Jeff Fortenberry, a Republican from Nebraska, is alleged to have received $30,000 in illegal campaign contributions, and subsequently lying when questioned by the FBI about it. He is under felony indictment from the Department of Justice and faces potential jail time. Nebraska GOP Rep. Fortenberry indictedDOJ says that Fortenberry did not file an amended report with the FEC to reflect the improper donations, nor did he return the money, and instead covered his tracks. He lied to the FBI during a March 2019 interview, according to the indictment, during which he told authorities that he was unaware of Baaklini ever making illegal contributions and of any foreign nationals' contributions to his campaign.FAUCI In testimony before Congress this past July, Senator Rand Paul challenged Anthony Fauci to come clean about the NIH providing funding to the Wuhan lab for gain of function research on coronaviruses (e.g genetically modifying the virus to increase its transmissibility.) "On May 11, you stated that NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology," Paul said. He [Rand Paul] claimed that gain-of-function research -- which could, in theory, enhance the transmissibility of a virus -- was performed in the lab and referred to an academic paper by a Chinese scientist, which he then asked to be entered into the record and for a copy to be given to Fauci. "Dr. Fauci, knowing that it is a crime to lie to Congress, do you wish to retract your statement of May 11, where you claimed at the NIH never funded gain-of-function research and move on?" Paul said, repeating his unsupported accusation. "I have never lied before the Congress, and I do not retract that statement," Fauci said when pressed by Paul on previous testimony from the doctor that the U.S. did not fund gain of function research in Wuhan. "You do not know what you are talking about quite frankly, and I want to say that officially."Fauci lied. This past week, officials with the National Institute of Health officially confirmed that NIH funded gain of function research at the Wuhan lab. The National Institutes of Health is now admitting to funding gain-of-function research on bats infected with coronaviruses at a lab in Wuhan, China despite repeated denials from Dr. Anthony Fauci that U.S. tax dollars were used on the funding. Anthony Fauci lied under oath about providing US tax dollars for gain of function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the same lab from which it now seems likely that Covid-19 originated. Over 700,000 US deaths have been blamed on Covid. Fauci lied, people died. Fauci’s perjury about his complicity in funding the Wuhan lab is a felony. But he’ll never be prosecuted. Meanwhile, Jeff Fortenberry is facing jail time. By the way, no Democrat would ever be indicted for what Fortenberry is alleged to have done. No Democrat would even be investigated for what Fortenberry is alleged to have done. Governmental ethics laws that are enforced against only one side of the political divide are not laws at all – they’re weapons.

Fauci needs the birdcage treatment.
What is the birdcage treatment, you ask? I'm glad you did. When I come to power it will be the punishment method for public officials like Fauci. Using this method, the perpetrator is stripped naked and locked in a giant iron bird cage. The bird cage is suspended 8-10 feet around the national mall. The mall is lined with wooden crates full of rotten food. Citizens can then hurl the rotten food at the inmate. The inmate is hosed down and fed every evening and morning.

oh, and what about cold cash jefferson(?) from LA. did he get jail time for actually hiding 100k in cash in his freezer?
After being given an standing ovation by the democrats in congress, Cold Cash was convicted of 11 of 16 charges, had to surrender $470,000, and was imprisoned for 13 years. Later, the courts ruled that the jury had been given improper instructions and knocked the jail time down to time served after over 5 years in prison.

Curious... this US representative is being prosecuted by the FBI for "illegal campaign contributions" and a similar case was announced against a Tennessee state senator (Kelsey) for the same thing (he ran an unsuccessful campaign for a US congressional seat.
I'm wondering if more of the same (unreported campaign contributions) indictments are waiting to break against Republicans juuuuuuust past the election filing cutoffs for candidates. Basically... make it impossible for the candidate to win because of "indictment" but no one else can run in their place with their name on the boot forcing a write-in campaign.

Let's not forget his lies about natural origins of COVID. Knowing for a fact producing *something* like COVID 19 was exactly what Wuhan was doing with our money would mean every statement declaring 'definite natural origin' was an outright lie. He knew no matter how skeptically you wanted to look at it, it was at least possible that it was a lab escapee if not probable given its it's extreme contagiousness. Very few diseases jump off animals straight to humans with that level of contagiousness.

Because some cop and prosecutor testified about how the defendant "just sat there and didn't even react when his horrific crimes were laid out."

Because some cop and prosecutor testified about how the defendant "just sat there and didn't even react when his horrific crimes were laid out."

Janet Yellen just proposed a tax on unrealized capital gains.
For those who don't know, that means if you buy a stock for $1000 and it goes up to $5000 then back to $1000, you owe taxes on the $4000 profit that you never made. This concept will literally bankrupt people. ___ No it won't literally bankrupt anyone. And the other part you're leaving out is you will not pay tax on the $4000 when you sell.

26 Fauci needs the birdcage treatment.
What is the birdcage treatment, you ask? I'm glad you did. When I come to power it will be the punishment method for public officials like Fauci. Using this method, the perpetrator is stripped naked and locked in a giant iron bird cage. The bird cage is suspended 8-10 feet around the national mall. The mall is lined with wooden crates full of rotten food. Citizens can then hurl the rotten food at the inmate. The inmate is hosed down and fed every evening and morning.

Billionaires will ALWAYS be able to exempt themselves from any law that supposedly applies to them - they have armies of people and lots of congressmen on their payrolls to guarantee that they can, behind the scenes. The purpose of the bill is to make a big public show, and then hope no one notices when none of them actually pay anything under it, because they are always built in ways for them to avoid it.
the only reason for the "billionaire bill" is to open the door to confiscation of IRA accounts due to "fiscal necessity" at some point in the future. Also, it gives them a fig leaf to pretend this bill is "revenue neutral" for reconciliation, even though of course it isn't, and never will be.

Nice Principles you got there.
Posted by: garrett at October 26, 2021 12:04 PM (v0DHF) ++++ I kinda see his point on this one. It's an appalling proposal - taxing something that doesn't exist - and it is obviously a bad idea with hugely negative implications. But here's another angle on it: it is targeting the biggest and best allies of the state, and hurting them is good. Inevitably, this will move down-market and hit everyone, but I also think that's inevitable. The state will voraciously consume everything from everyone until it dies in a final gluttonous ecstasy. If they can get fucked along the way, then fine. I don't like this proposal and I don't think they should pass it, but if they do I will enjoy the state hurting my enemies (their own allies) for a change until it eats me. That they will eat me is inevitable. The state has completely failed and is now just like any other gangster. Minimizing your edible surface area is probably more useful than fighting a law change that will be replaced by another if it fails.

Assign them the task of finding the 5,000 Native American Women and Children that disapppear on US Indian Reservations, and the tens of thousands from previous years too. Keep them together so they do not contaminate Local, State, and Federal Law Enforcement. Make it a condition of retirement, they do not join any LEA. (probably unconstitutional?) Move their HQ to Tulsa OK. Stop all hiring, and let them wither to a 100 person department, capped by law. Start a new Federal LEA, Regionally based, with a dozen independent regions.

That may be the wrong approach. The problem isn't who pays (not exactly), it's who receives. Ending subsidies and bailouts and antitrust exemptions would do more than any new tax. Cut them off the public tit and hit them for being monopolies. The tax rates don't matter nearly so much then.

I cannot believe that any conservative still believes that when Democrats say "we're going to tax the billionaires!" (their allies), that they actually intend to tax them. You'd have to be very credulous at this point to believe that.
And since that is NOT their goal, we must look to see what the goal of this proposal actually is. Unrealized capitol gains, once they lower the threshold, which they will - if you bought a house for $200,000, and it increases in value to $500,000 because of inflation, you will owe tax on $300,000 even though you have never sold the house and never got that as income - because that is an "unrealized capital gain". Same goes for IRA accounts. That's the goal. Posted by: Tom Servo at October 26, 2021 12:16 PM (trdmm) 403

And since that is NOT their goal, we must look to see what the goal of this proposal actually is. Unrealized capitol gains, once they lower the threshold, which they will - if you bought a house for $200,000, and it increases in value to $500,000 because of inflation, you will owe tax on $300,000 even though you have never sold the house and never got that as income - because that is an "unrealized capital gain". Same goes for IRA accounts. That's the goal.

My contention is that there should be *zero* benefit of the doubt extended to the illegitimate junta, and *zero* tolerance for any attempt to continue funding leviathan through new and improved cash grabs.
Our problems are much deeper than a couple billion dollars sluicing from one slimeball to the next, but those problems will only begin to be solved with the complete collapse of the credibility and the cultural acceptance of the barbarians running the illegitimate junta. So cheer for the collapse this atrocious cash grab will likely cause, but for heaven's sake don't support or defend the cash grab itself.

Whaaaaaat?!?! It Wasn't Just Beagles and Monkeys - Fauci's NIH Also Funded Medical Experiments on AIDS Orphans in NY City TGP: https://bit.ly/2ZqR9Qb In 2005, the city of New York hired the VERA Institute to form a final report on the drug trials. VERA was given no access to medical records for any of the children used in trials. Their report was published in 2008. They reported that twenty-five children died during the drug studies, that an additional fifty-five children died following the studies (in foster care), and, according to Tim Ross, Director of the Child Welfare program at VERA (as of 2009), 29% of the remaining 417 children who were used in drug studies had died (out of a total 532 children that are admitted to have been used). The WIKIPEDIA writers cover up all details, as is expected. No payment or compensation has been paid to any of the children used in the trials, or to their families.
