Biden Admin Denies Former World No. 1 Tennis Champ Novak Djokovic’s Access to Country Due to Vaccine Status — But Opened Border to 2 Million Unvaccinated Illegal Aliens in Last Year
March 9, 2022

More footage of the next day of Convoy meetings, this time with two Senators.  It was ok, another sense of hope.  Ok, there's definitely a movement going on.  It's clearly the reason I was interested right away in the Canadian Convoy.

Right now, my two main worries are (a) what the tyrants will hit us all with next and (b) that I don't see any sense of organization, certainly nothing that normal citizens could get involved with unless we have friends or relatives who are members.  I live next to an interstate, that's the closest I get to any connection with any trucks.  Right now, all my experience in dealing with them is in the past.

Anyway, I hope they're getting some good contacts in DC because I'm definitely fed up with it.

□ [“Biden Gang Now Says Biological Labs That They Said Were in Ukraine Yesterday Do Not Exist"]

And here's an example.  Jen Psaki tweets that it's a false claim, echoed by China, and we should be on the lookout for Russia using chemical or biological weapons.  What, they made it themselves?  Or at least got them from China?  What a coincidence.  Yet another example of Russia's long-time "violation of international law."

All this less than a day after a Biden official testified, possibly under oath, to Congress that yes, the US absolutely had biological labs in Ukraine.  These can't both be true, either Nuland or Psaki is lying.  One was talking to Congress, the other to the media and nobody's going to call them on it.

Democrats Met With Oil Execs Last Year And Pressured Them To Decrease Output Over Climate Change
March 9, 2022

So far it's just a rumor but word is coming out that Ukraine is negotiating a surrender.  They won't get to join NATO, they will accept the independence of the two states Russia created in 2014 and that Russia owns Crimea, they lose the chemical labs and any nuclear power beyond generic civilian use, and Russia gets to keep whatever records they've taken regarding, oh, Hunter Biden and all the other rich and famous investors.

Celebrities have been really tying themselves to Ukraine, or specifically to Zelenskyy.  If Ukraine really has been a hub of corruption for the west, now Russia has more evidence than ever, leaving aside whatever they kept from the KGB days.  Then there's all the corporations that made a big deal about banning Russia, it can now keep whatever property they left behind.  Not unlike the Taliban.

If this is true, it may explain why Russia was so slow and restrained on the invasion.  They're Russia, if they want, they can make the Hulk jealous of how much they smash.  But Putin wanted the world to see that they weren't really going to do anything to help - as we saw with Poland immediately refusing to go along with the Biden administration's notion of giving jets to NATO - and Zelenskyy gets more time to see that he's been abandoned.

Also, if this is true, it means we can probably expect another variant of the virus coming along and we all need to be locked away.

There's also a rumor that, having been rejected by NATO, Ukraine is now begging to join the EU.  Because they were so helpful.  Maybe Russia should join.

United Airlines to Allow Unvaccinated Employees Back to Work on March 28
March 10, 2022

Ok, I think I've gotten the basics of the oil problems and yes, it's the Executive Branch's fault.  It's a two-step process. Leasing the land is massively expensive and takes a lot of time just to see if there's anything worth going after. Getting ten leases means spending megabucks regardless of whether you find nothing but dirt, or if you find a drop of oil or if you find fifteen bajillion barrels worth.

Then, if you've found something, you have to get the permit to drill and Biden has already said "no." But you still have to pay for all those leases you looked into. That's obviously part of planning, the leasing you did ten years ago, you started drilling five years ago and it's starting to run out of oil now. The leasing you did nine years ago, you started drilling four years ago and it's still producing. The leasing you did eight years ago, you started drilling three years ago and it's running dry already. The leasing you did seven years ago, you started drilling two years ago and it has to deal with the Biden administration. The leasing you did six years ago, the Biden administration stopped you from drilling in the first place. The leasing you did five years ago doesn't have a chance of getting started and you still have to pay for it, as well as the leasing you did four years ago, three years ago, two years ago...

I am just making this up, I know the reality is far more complicated, I'm just trying to work out the basic overall structure so the details can be filled wherever they need to be. As an example, I'm guessing it's the Department of the Interior who oversees the leases and permits. I might have the wrong department, maybe it's the Department of Energy, there are undoubtedly other offices involved in approval but obviously that's where government agents step in, it's just a matter of working out which ones.

Ok. So there's:
Leasing the land, huge expense.
Manpower, tools, equipment for the years of exploration, another huge expense.
These expenses have to be paid whether you find anything or not.
IF you find oil, you need permits to drill. Departments of Energy, Labor, Interior all stick their nose in.
More manpower, tools and equipment for drilling, also the pipelines to move the oil from where you got it to somewhere else for further processing.
All this has to be gotten through whether or not you operate on federal land.

There's also the financing required. Nobody has a billion dollars just sitting around to spend on all of this, they have to deal with banks and investors, they have to pay taxes.
The Federal Reserve and the Securities and Exchange Commission all stick their noses in. These aren't technically part of the Executive Branch but they don't get to tell the POTUS to piss off, they're going to do their own thing.

This isn't counting all the rules and regulations any of the entities can dictate.
Many other government organizations get a say, then there's rules and regulations made by the individual states.
The federal government may give states orders .
The federal government may say 'you can do your own thing and by the way, we won't give you millions of dollars to fund X, Y and Z if you don't follow our suggestions.'
Or the states may decide on their own that they don't like oil and impose their own rules and regulations.

And this hasn't even gotten into fracking and shaling which a lot of those permits are for.  There used to be a lot more than 9,000 permits but now the government doesn't allow that.

Now that I've worked out the basics, the next step is to point out the government hostility as you've just done. After that, we need to work out who, specifically, is to blame for this.

That part I'm not sure how to do. A list of every single government organization that interferes would be helpful, along with specifying if they're part of the Executive Branch or a given state or whoever, some sort of conspiracy group. But that's just a long boring list no matter what, even if we just point to Biden for all the Executive Branch stuff and California for their interventions and so on. We don't specifically know who Biden's handlers are and any guesses we have lead away from their basic goal, destroying oil production.

I'll make up another example, I'm Biden's handler. I'm not rich or famous, you've never heard of me, I'm using a made-up name and posting here like I pretend to oppose Biden. I did that under a different name when Obama was in office. I handle Washington DC, my next door neighbor handles Hollywood, his sister handles foreign affairs and we run the world because we hate oil even more than we hate Trump. Every few days, I text Warren Buffet a few messages for him to pass along to everyone else who needs to know.

My point is that adding me to the list of handlers isn't going to help anyone, it's not going to stop me or anyone else, it's not going to produce more oil. We do need to take these elites down but to do that we need to produce fuel and that's a completely different issue, even if we're fighting it in the same way at the same time.

That's why I'm trying to break this all down into as simple a method as possible so it's easiest to communicate with everyone else on what we have to do and who we're up against.

‘The Memo has Gone Out’: The Left, ABC News Puppet Biden’s Claim That High Gas is ‘Putin’s Price Hike’
March 9, 2022

Also, just so we know, the USA produces more oil and natural gas than any other nation.  However the left wants to shut that down.  They want so-called environmentally-friendly wind and solar power which requires production of minerals which can only be found in certain places.  The biggest extractors of copper, nickel, cobalt, rare earths and lithium are, respectively, Chile, Indonesia, Congo, China and Australia.  Then the minerals need further processing and China is the number one for all of them.  China also produces the majority of wind turbines and solar generators which require those minerals.

And the food crisis is ready to get much worse.  Russia has ended all wheat exports.  China is stockpiling rice, corn and wheat.  US farmers are trying to work with fertilizer prices skyrocketing.  None of that includes the increased gas prices to get these foods to your local grocery store. 

□ [“Warner Bros delays The Flash and Aquaman 2 into 2023"]

Just a note because I haven't written about pop culture in a while, what are they trying to do here with DC?  It looks like they immediately made a blatant attempt to copy Marvel and haven't really gone anywhere.  Supposedly the Wonder Woman movie was a gigantic hit but the sequel didn't do anything.  The Justice League movie came and went.  They're still trying... something but it doesn't seem to be doing well.  Every movie they had scheduled this year is being pushed back, some into 2023.

Looking at the list, I see a Super Pets movie.  I assume it'll be horrible but it at least theoretically sounds like a fun idea.  I'm pretty sure Krypto and Streaky aren't used in any movies but who cares, a cartoon of them could be enjoyable.  There are probably other characters, I dunno, but it's possible.

Black Atom.  WTF?  I've been so distanced from comics for so long, I have no clue why this happened, but for some reason they made a random Captain Marvel villain into a star.  I'm guessing it's because they can't use the name "Captain Marvel" and at least Black Atom has the same origins - I think, never been much of a Captain Marvel fan - but this still doesn't make any sense.  Anyway, his big-budget movie's release is being pushed back.

Flash?  Ok, I guess if you're going to do a movie about a DC character, sooner or later you'll get to the Flash.  I really don't care which one they're doing.  Was this the movie that's getting so much publicity for having Michael Keaton as Batman?  That's... really what the Flash is about, isn't it?

Aquaman, is that an original or a sequel?  I have no idea what movies have even come out at this point.  I've never seen how this character works as a solo act, he swims and talks to fish and, uh, gets married?  Safe to assume it'll be heavy on the 'environmental' agenda.

Captain Marvel gets a sequel and it's actually being moved from 2023 to Christmas 2022, two months after Black Atom.  Ok, whatever, maybe it's just a two-part movie.  There are probably worse ideas.

There's a Batgirl movie with no release date and a Blue Beetle movie that hasn't even started production.  To a large extent, these are all characters I've never had much interest in but it seems like I've lost a lot more interest just writing this.  Batgirl and the Super Pets are the closest they come to characters I ever had any interest in and none of them would make the top 20, possibly not even the top 50 when I was most interested.

Marvel did successfully put out a bunch of big-budget movies about characters no one had ever heard of and put them together into a giant franchise with 'easter eggs,' references to each other.  Ok, but DC was never very good at that and trying to bring it into movies just sounds like a horrible idea.  Obviously something is being planned for this but what?

Biden to Raid Strategic Petroleum Reserve Again
March 9, 2022

More is coming out that Ukraine is ready to surrender.  Yeah, the Russian forces just surrounded the cities and essentially the same with the Ukraine forces.  There's been reports for a couple weeks now that Russia is fighting actual Nazis but I have yet to see any actual proof or even an explanation so obviously I'm not going along with that for the time being.

What little I've seen are implications that these so-called Nazis are basically the real reason for the invasion which otherwise was quite restrained.  As I point out, Russia could very easily destroy whatever's in front of it if that's all they did but even accepted more casualties than they should and limited their attacks on civilians.  Which is just odd.

It's also suggested that the actual leaders of the so-called Nazis are in the US.  Probably at very high rank and power which would explain a lot.
