Agenda Weekly Brief for October 24-30 by Curtis Bowers

Dear Friend,

Matthew 5:11-12 says, “Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Do you view persecution and suffering from a Biblical perspective?

1. CLIMATE CHANGE A TROJAN HORSE FOR NEW WORLD ORDER: The Council on Foreign Relations’ Foreign Affairs published an article entitled, “The International Order Isn’t Ready for the Climate Crisis: The Case for a New Planetary Politics.”  Essentially, author Stewart M. Patrick argued that nations must prioritize the survival of the planet over national sovereignty. Patrick said the United States needs to “start by working with other countries to remold traditional concepts of sovereignty.” Patrick also highlighted the example of Brazil and the Amazon, urging that Brazil should be considered the rainforest’s “custodian” rather than its “owner.”

Maarten van Aalst, director of the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Center, said that a successful COP26 climate summit would be one that instills “a sense that we’re still in it together as a world, and a sense of a commonly owned agenda where we will continue to raise ambition over the coming years.”

2. G20 MEETING PROMOTES ECONOMIC, ENVIRONMENTAL, AND HEALTH CONTROL: The CFR noted, “When the leaders of the G20’s member states convene for their Oct. 30-31 summit in Rome, there will be no time for fiddling. The planet is on fire. The pandemic smolders on. And the global recovery is faltering. The G20 was created for just such a moment and just such challenges. To meet them, the assembled heads of governments must make credible commitments to accelerate decarbonization, expand vaccine access and alleviate developing nations’ crushing burden of debt.” CFR noted that the 2021 G20 focused on “three broad, interconnected pillars of action: People, Planet, Prosperity,” eerily similar to the Communist Party USA’s motto, “People and Planet before Profits.”

Reuters reported, “Finance and health ministers from the world’s 20 biggest economies (G20) said on Friday they would take steps to ensure 70% of the world’s population is vaccinated against COVID-19 by mid-2022 and created a task force to fight future pandemics.”

Ed. Note: All the double talk of climate change is for one purpose alone: the socialization of the world. Create a crisis that produces fear, exaggerate the fear by screaming “fire” and then organize people to do things that will give you the most power. That’s the elite’s “climate crisis” in a nutshell.

3. FEWER CARS, COWS, CARBON, AND KIDS, AND MORE CLIMATE CRAZINESS: The U.K. Times reports, “Consideration may also have to be given to scrapping almost a million older fossil fuel cars and a significant reduction in dairy cows by 2030 if Ireland is to meet its targets.” CNN promoted an absurd proposal intended to reduce carbon emissions: “[S]cholars have proposed chopping down trees or collecting fallen logs and intentionally stowing them away. That could mean sinking them to the bottom of lakes, interring them in abandoned mines, or burying them in specially dug trenches.”

Newsmax reported a sad story: “More young, activist women are choosing to be sterilized as our nation’s emerging adult generation is buying into climate-change propaganda that ‘humans were a mistake.’” The article quotes extensively from Bari Weiss’s insightful recent piece, “First Comes Love. Then Comes Sterilization: Inside America’s Baby Bust. Meet the young women who never want to have kids.”

Ed. Note: We should’ve known something was going on when those that claimed to be “for everything green” wanted to cut the single most important element in the atmosphere (for everything green!) which is carbon. Current levels of carbon dioxide are 400 ppm, but ideal levels are 1600 ppm. The reality is they are destroying the planet under the guise of saving the planet. 

4. FDA RECOMMENDS VACCINE FOR 5 TO 11 YEAR-OLDS: Dr. Ruben from the FDA panel shockingly remarked, “We’re never gonna learn about how safe the vaccine is until we start giving it. That’s the way it goes.” Responding to the FDA panel’s 17-0 vote, Harvard University professor of medicine Martin Kulldorff said, “I don’t think children should be vaccinated for COVID…COVID is not a huge threat to children.”

Testifying before the advisory panel, Dr. Brian Dressen, Ph.D., whose wife was injured neurologically in the 2020 AstraZeneca trial told the panel, “Each of you hold a significant responsibility today and know that without a doubt, when you approve this for the 5-11-year-olds, you are signing innocent kids and uninformed parents to a fate that will undoubtedly rob some of them of their life.”

5. COVID VACCINE DOES NOT PREVENT COVID AND INJURIES ARE SOARING: Rebel News states, “A whistleblower from British Columbia’s Interior Health region claims that half of reported COVID hospitalizations are unrelated to the virus.” According to The Daily Expose, “Fully Vaccinated are suffering far higher rates of infection than the Unvaccinated, and it is getting worse by the day; there is no justification for Vaccine Passports.”

VAERS data shows 818,044 reports of adverse events, including 17,128 deaths and 122,833 serious injuries between Dec. 14, 2020, and Oct. 15, 2021.

The Gateway Pundit reported, “Concerned Mother Wants to Air T.V. Ad on Pfizer’s Dangerous Vaccine After Daughter Is Severely and Permanently Damaged — But Comcast Refuses Ad at Last Minute.” Another story from The Gateway Pundit reads, “17-Year-Old Healthy Hockey Player Passes Away in Canada Weeks After Jab — Father Is Devastated After Loss.” The COVID Blog noted, “Three Ohio judges’ die unexpectedly’ in nine-day span after vax mandate in Cuyahoga County.”

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said the CDC may need to “update” their definition of “fully vaccinated” in the future. One Washington Post writer said, “If ‘fully vaccinated’ is useful as a concept, it’s more at the level of the population than the individual…The goal of vaccination is to drive a virus out of a population. This means everyone getting their first and second doses so that everyone is functionally protected.”

The New York Times reports, “Tens of millions of Americans are now cleared to get booster shots for all three Covid-19 vaccines offered in the U.S.”

6. PURE MARXISM IN NEW BANKING PROPOSAL AND “BUILD BACK BETTER” BILL: Following are two key planks from Marx’s Communist Manifesto, both of which the Biden Administration is attempting to further expand:

• Centralization of Credit in the Hands of the State, by Means of a National Bank with State Capital and an Exclusive Monopoly 
• Free Education for All Children in Public Schools

David Leonhardt of the New York Times admits, “Compared with Biden’s original proposal, it [the $1.75 trillion package] looks paltry. Compared with the status quo, it looks like a big deal.” According to The Washington Post, the $1.75 trillion proposal includes $555 billion for “clean energy and climate investments,” $400 billion for “free” universal preschool and child care, and $100 billion for “immigration reform.” The House version still includes an invasive provision that would require banks to give the IRS information on all accounts with over $600 in transactions. The bill also gives the IRS $78 billion more for audit enforcement.

Adding insult to injury, Saule Omarova, Biden’s nominee for Comptroller of the Currency, wants to abolish banks. In a recent paper published in the Vanderbilt Law Review, Omarova proposed a plan to centralize banking. Pam and Russ Martens warn the proposal includes:

(1) Moving all commercial bank deposits from commercial banks to so-called FedAccounts at the Federal Reserve;

(2) Allowing the Fed, in “extreme and rare circumstances, when the Fed is unable to control inflation by raising interest rates,” to confiscate deposits from these FedAccounts in order to tighten monetary policy;

(4) Eliminate the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) that insures bank deposits;

(5) Consolidate all bank regulatory functions at the OCC – which Omarova has been nominated to head.

Ed. Note: Control of the money supply and energy are two key goals of those that want total control. Communist countries definitely have those two items under their thumb.

7. UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME AND ECONOMIC COLLAPSE: Chicago and Los Angeles are among cities launching universal basic income programs. Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman said, “We’re going to end up with a real shortage of energy. And when you have a shortage, it’s going to cost more. And it’s probably going to cost a lot more.” Michael Snyder warns, “This Winter, We Could Potentially Be Facing Simultaneous Shortages Of Oil, Natural Gas, Propane And Coal.” Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey recently tweeted, “Hyperinflation is going to change everything. It’s happening. It will happen in the U.S. soon, and so the world.” Speaking of Biden’s worker mandate, Michael Snyder wrote, “It is almost as if Biden can’t wait to drop the hammer on the economy.”

Ed. Note: It’s the old Cloward and Piven strategy: overwhelm the system to collapse it! Back in the 1960’s, they strategized how they could use the weight of the poor to take America down.

8. MANUFACTURED IMMIGRATION DISASTER: In the fiscal year 2021, border patrol agents apprehended a record 1,666,167 illegal immigrants and stopped an additional 294,352 who attempted to enter without legal papers. The Epoch Times reports, “The CBP doesn’t officially release the number of ‘gotaways’—illegal aliens who are detected by Border Patrol but evade capture. However, former CBP Commissioner Mark Morgan told a congressional Republican roundtable on Oct. 20 that the gotaway number hit at least 400,000 illegal aliens this year.”

9. FACEBOOK CHANGES ITS NAME, APPLE AND AMAZON ADVANCE SURVEILLANCE STATE: Facebook is changing its name to Meta. CEO Mark Zuckerberg said, “Building social apps will always be important for us, and there’s a lot more to build. But increasingly, it’s not all we do. In our DNA, we build technology to bring people together. The metaverse is the next frontier in connecting people, just like social networking was when we got started.” The new name captures Facebook’s vision to use technology to build a modern-day 1984/Brave New World in which individuals are constantly connected to the “meta verse.” Meanwhile, Facebook continues to face “criticism” from regulators, journalists, and lawmakers who want to further censor the internet.

As part of Apple’s new update, users can now put their Covid-19 vaccination records in their Apple Wallet. One TikTok user was shocked to realize that Amazon’s Dot and Echo devices had recorded thousands of audio clips from her.

10. THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM LAUNCHES THE “GREAT NARRATIVE”: From Sociable: “The World Economic Forum (WEF) is looking to establish a ‘great narrative’ following the great reset agenda with the upcoming launch of the ‘Great Narrative’ initiative. In establishing a great narrative, the WEF is looking to assert an authoritative storyline to convince people why they need a great reset of society and the global economy.”

11. THE EDUCATION AND GENDER REVOLUTION CONTINUES: An op-ed in The Washington Post stated, “Parents claim they have the right to shape their kids’ school curriculum. They don’t.” CBS reports, “The United States has issued its first passport with an ‘X’ gender designation and expects to be able to offer the option to nonbinary, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people early next year, the State Department said Wednesday.” Twitter locked U.S. Representative Jim Banks’ account after Banks “misgendered” “Rachel” Levine, a man in Biden’s cabinet who calls himself a woman.

Ed. Note: The Communists, Socialists, and Nazis all believed children were property of the state. It looks like the Democrats in America feel exactly the same way.

12. FREEDOM IS AT STAKE: The Daily Mail reports how bad things have gotten in Australia: “Queenslanders who received fines for breaking Covid-19 rules risk having their homes seized and bank accounts frozen in a government crackdown to collect $5.2 million in repayments.”

Leftist intellectual Noam Chomsky suggested that the unvaccinated should be denied food in order to starve them into submission and “safeguard the community.” Senator Roger Marshall said that dishonorably discharged military members could face a grim life ahead: “Those folks will be treated as felons. They’ll never be able to get a job again. They lose their Second Amendment. In some states, they won’t be able to vote again. They lose their V.A. benefits, access to the V.A. hospitals, retirement plans.”

The Epoch Times reports, “Vaccine passports mandated by governments will create a highly intrusive surveillance system that not only forces Canadians to reveal their health information but can also track their whereabouts, Ontario’s former privacy commissioner says.” Commissioner Ann Cavoukian calls this a “global digital infrastructure of surveillance.”

Brexit leader Nigel Farage stated, “I don’t want to live in a two-tier society, don’t want to live in a society where those who for reasons of conscience or belief don’t choose to be jabbed become effectively social outcasts…the whole thing is completely and utterly loathsome.” Former British Columbia Premier Bill Vander Zalm said, “We will be totally controlled, totally controlled. Forget about freedoms after this because they’ve started it now. The mandates are the beginning. Only the very beginning of things.”

Ed. Note: Covid is merely a smokescreen for totalitarian mandates, the modern day “Show me your papers.” Joseph Stalin said, “Any lie that advances the Communist conquest is by definition not a lie, but the Marxist Leninist truth.”

THE FREEDOM AGENDA

1. FIRST RESPONDERS MARCH IN NEW YORK CITY: Active FDNY Captain Jason Wendell said there were “thousands and thousands” of firefighters and first responders in the march. Retired police officer Philip McManus said, “Why are we here? We’re here, it’s not just because of forced mandates, medical mandates. This is about freedom. This is the real issue, it’s about freedom. And we’re fighting a dictatorship in this country. We’re fighting a tyranny in our country. The reality is, we have a president who is forcing people to do something that is absolutely against their religious opinions or their medical decisions, and we have to do everything we can to fight for everyone. Everyone that was forced to be vaccinated needs to stand united for freedom. We all know what’s going on in this country. We have a communist takeover in this country. Give me liberty or give me death.”

2. MONTANA GOVERNOR STANDS STRONG: Montana Governor Greg Gianforte said, “Montana is a sanctuary for freedom and the free market. I think it’s critically important that government communicate, educate, but I don’t think we should be mandating, and this is why Montana’s the only state in the country that has said, ‘It’s a personal decision as to whether or not you want to get vaccinated,’ which I believe is true.”

3. INDIANA ADVERTISES FOR CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS: An Indiana State Police spokesman tweeted, “Hey Chicago police officers, we’re hiring! No vaccine mandate…lower taxes, great schools, welcoming communities.”

4. GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS STANDS STRONG: DeSantis recently tweeted out an updated version of the Florida flag that read, “Don’t tread on Florida.” Governor DeSantis said, “In Florida, not only are we going to want to protect the law enforcement and all the jobs, we’re actually actively working to recruit out of state law enforcement because we do have needs in our police and our sheriffs’ departments…So in the next legislative session, I’m going to hopefully sign legislation that gives a $5,000 bonus to any out of state law enforcement that relocates in Florida.”

Governor Ron DeSantis said that Florida is already taking rerouted ships from business and expects more. The Epoch Times reports, “Gov. Ron DeSantis has announced that Florida is suing President Joe Biden, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson, and others over mandates requiring employees of federal contractors to be vaccinated for COVID-19.” DeSantis has proposed the PREP ACT, which would hold employers who mandate vaccines liable for damages if their employees become injured from the vaccines.

5. THE GROWING PUSHBACK AGAINST VACCINE MANDATES: The Guardian reports, “Tennis star Novak Djokovic says he’ll give up defending his title rather than reveal his vaccination status just to be allowed entry into Australia for the Open.” The Epoch Times records numerous testimonies from health care workers who say they would rather loose their jobs than take the Covid vaccine.

The New American reports, “Pushback Against COVID Vaccine Mandates Continues to Grow.” Life Site News notes, “Two thousand United Airlines workers are suing the company over their ‘vaccine’ mandate. OAN reports, “More than 200 [General Electric] employees in New York protested on Friday against the company’s vaccine mandate. This comes after roughly 150 workers lined up outside of the General Electric facility in South Carolina Thursday.” Students, teachers, and parents in California participated in “No Mandates Monday.”

A Kaiser Family Foundation survey found that 72% of unvaccinated workers say they would quit their jobs if forced to get vaccinated.

6. UPHOLDING THE SECOND AMENDMENT: The New American notes, “In a remarkable decision, the Illinois Supreme Court ruled 6-0 that the taxes enacted on firearms and ammunition by Cook County in 2012 and 2015 are unconstitutional, both under the U.S. Constitution and the Illinois Constitution.”

7. VICTORIES IN TEXAS: Fox Business reports, “Texas welcomes patients denied lifesaving organ transplants in Colorado because of COVID vaccination status.” Texas passed a law banning men who pretend to be women from competing in school sports. The Federalist notes, “Texas Gov. Greg Abbott gave the green light for thousands of specially trained National Guard troops to go to the Southern U.S. border and begin making arrests of illegal aliens who are trespassing in the state.”

8. DEFENDING THE UNBORN: Newsmax, “The city council of Mason, a city just north of Cincinnati, voted 4-3 to make the city ’a sanctuary for the unborn.’”

9. HOMESCHOOLER WINS NATIONAL CONSTITUTION BEE: Homeschooled senior Braeden Farley won the National Constitution Bee, gaining a $10,000 education scholarship.

HYMN OF THE WEEK

Thy Word Is Like a Garden, Lord by Edwin Hodder

Thy Word is like a garden, Lord, with flowers bright and fair;
And everyone who seeks may pluck a lovely cluster there.
Thy Word is like a deep, deep mine; and jewels rich and rare
Are hidden in its mighty depths for every searcher there.

Thy Word is like a starry host: a thousand rays of light
Are seen to guide the traveler and make his pathway bright.
Thy Word is like an armory, where soldiers may repair;|
And find, for life’s long battle day, all needful weapons there.

Oh, may I love Thy precious Word, may I explore the mine,
May I its fragrant flowers glean, may light upon me shine!
Oh, may I find my armor there! Thy Word my trusty sword,
I’ll learn to fight with every foe the battle of the Lord.
