Dr. Harold N. Bornstein, who for a time was President Donald J. Trump’s personal physician and who had attested that Mr. Trump would be “the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency,” died on Friday. He was 73.
His death was announced on Thursday in a paid notice in The New York Times. It did not give a cause or say where he died..
In anticipation of the government’s official UFO report coming in less than six months thanks to the COVID-19 omnibus bill, you can now download all of the publicly available CIA documentation on UFOs.
This news could have been lost amid all of the other chaos of the past few weeks..
The Black Vault, a clearinghouse for declassified documents, has released a downloadable document archive filled with PDFs containing CIA files on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), the government’s preferred term. . Some of the reports date all the way back to the 1980s, and according to the site’s founder, John Greenewald Jr., the spy agency claims this is all of its documents on UAPs.
According to Greenewald, around 10,000 Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) reports were required to obtain the PDFs and the process was an excruciatingly long one. He scanned the documents by hand.
Greenewald has had one of the best and most famous websites since the beginning of the internet.. It has lived through countless high strangeness to continue its existence today..
Kudos and applause for a job well done.
Some examples..
Within the pages are a bizarre story of a mysterious explosion in a small Russian town. Residents reported seeing a “moving fiery sphere”, sparking UFO fears, but local military men concluded that a store of ammonium nitrate was the source of the blast. The CIA’s investigation was inconclusive.
The drama continues as the climactic series finale of the Trump administration gets ready to air.
Trump has become the only president now impeached twice, Mitch McConnell hints the trial could be January 19, only hours before the inauguration of Joe Biden!
There is a good chance that the trial will occur in full AFTER Trump leaves office.. Creating an interesting beginning for the initial days of the new Administration..
The impeachment passed the House with 10 Republicans voting in favor of it, compared to 2019 in the last impeachment trial no Republicans voted for it..
A developing situation..
News today.. TWITTER purged more than 70,000 accounts affiliated with QAnon… That’s quite a bit.
We already know that included with that purge was the President himself.. While the decision to purge some extreme accounts has been applauded, others like Jim Cramer are noting how little they suddenly check Twitter. How … un-exciting it has become to just go to the site for sports scores again. Trump, Cramer said, was the draw. Without him the site will need to find another star–and their stocks did tumble.
Since Twitter’s purge, Parler was shut down by app stores and eventually Amazon decided who gets to be on their vast internet servers. Again, applauded but a few, just a very few, are shocked that Jeff Bezos has that much power!
And since this big ‘cleaning’ online, the following has happened:
Rumors have persisted and rapidly been sent around the world that 1) the Pope was arrested during a blackout this weekend, 2) The Italian Prime Minister is in jail, 3) ATM machines all over the nation are not working and 4) Bible ‘experts’ all over were posting videos that they were given secret messages about the end times coming.
Additionally, upcoming dates in January of armed mass protests were being planned, just as Congress plans the Impeachment sequel, almost a spinoff series at this point of the Trump Reality Show.
So with all of these dangerous accounts gone, it seemingly became even more increasingly easy to spread misinformation for fun.
I get the sense of quite a few users at 4CHAN having a blast with spreading the website “the conservative beaver” about the Pope’s indictment that your grandparents most likely have spread to their friends on Facebook..
Parler was reportedly being used to help assist in planning chaos.. As a result, effectively all other businesses shut them down. There will undoubtedly be antitrust suits and allegations of corporate monopoly, but somehow life started to move so fast since 2021 began, it is difficult to keep up. And it makes you look old fashioned not to join along..
Just a few news clips on Parler before proceeding:

Meanwhile.. this from the FBI: All 50 states need to prepare for mass chaos. That’s right, all 50. Every capitol.. ABC says they obtained the memo and printed it for the world–but still no official in person press conference or statement from anyone in the FBI:
The FBI has also received information in recent days on a group calling for “storming” state, local and federal government courthouses and administrative buildings in the event President Donald Trump is removed from office prior to Inauguration Day. The group is also planning to “storm” government offices in every state the day President-elect Joe Biden will be inaugurated, regardless of whether the states certified electoral votes for Biden or Trump.
“The FBI received information about an identified armed group intending to travel to Washington, DC on 16 January,” the bulletin read. “They have warned that if Congress attempts to remove POTUS via the 25th Amendment, a huge uprising will occur.”
Washington has suddenly become tense since January 6. The newest memo has added misery to the discomfort..
The abrupt resignation of Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf added to the mounting tension in Washington ahead of President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration next week.. Wolf announced that “the evolving security landscape” had led to a decision to begin security for the inauguration on Jan. 13. The efforts were originally scheduled to begin on Jan. 19…
ONLY HOURS TO GO UNTIL THE END OF THE TRUMP SHOW.. PEOPLE SUDDENLY ON PINS AND NEEDLES OVER WHAT THE CLIMACTIC SERIES FINALE WILL INCLUDE..
The U.S. has reported 278,920 new COVID-19 cases today, making it the record for most cases reported in a single day.
The previous record?? YESTERDAY..

A new study showcasing the complicated nature of spread: At least 50% of new coronavirus infections are spread from people without symptoms..
People who are asymptomatic or never experience symptoms made up about 24% of all transmissions, while presymptomatic individuals accounted for 35% for a total of 59%, researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found.

One further detail on the story showcasing symptoms still occurring after 6 months–that one is troubling. These have been previous called the COVID longhaulers..
More than three quarters of coronavirus patients have at least one ongoing symptom six months after initially becoming unwell, according to a new study.
The research looked at the long-term effects of Covid-19 on people admitted to hospital in Wuhan, China, and found that the most common symptom to persist is fatigue or muscle weakness, in 63% of patients.
Patients also frequently experience sleep difficulties (26%), and anxiety or depression was reported among 23% of patients, according to the study.
Researchers found patients who were severely ill in hospital more often had impaired lung function and abnormalities detected in chest imaging – which could indicate organ damage – six months after symptom onset.
If you rested for a mere few hours this week, you couldn’t keep up with it. The last time I looked at Steve Lookner, his bloodshot eyes were giving out from endless hours of broadcasting online!
The mayhem that ensued during the Battle of the Don was the only thing on the nation’s (and world’s) mind since January 6 when the Capitol Hill mob attacked Washington DC..
Since then, countless MAGA supporters, including the man who sat in Nancy Pelosi’s office and the other who cheerfully stole her podium, have been arrested.
Donald Trump has been removed from Twitter for the rest of his life. Thousands of other accounts related to QANAN have been purged. Google, Apple, and now Amazon have deplatformed Parler after a number of posts were made on that site showcasing attempts to organize further mass violence.
A few points of information necessary for consideration:
CNN reporting that the pro-Trump riot was more violent than it first seemed.
There was so much news that it was hard to process: Reports of explosive devices, an armed standoff, a shooting and evacuations. Viewers were able to see some of it with their own eyes, but most of the information was secondhand, from tweets and phone calls and emailed dispatches from congressional reporters, many of them locked in the Capitol..
Only later did it become clear that lawmakers feared for their lives; that some of the attackers were hunting for congressional leaders; that there could have been a massacre.
And hunting Mike Pence, the Vice President?
Several have pondered whether Trump’s words in his January 6 speech to his followers was meant to create a hostile coup and a dangerous plot to murder his own vice President! Immediately as the violence began, Pence was ushered out and hidden for safety..
An extremely important and remarkable Twitter thread from Seth Abramson not only documents some important moment’s from Trump’s speech that professors will study for decades to come, but how some of the anger was purposely directed at Pence for the crowd to get hidden messages..
The Department of Justice is warning that national secrets may have been stolen by MAGA..
Senator Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) said at least one laptop had been stolen from his offices, while another protester was seen brandishing Pelosi’s mail outside the Capitol in the aftermath.
The Senate Parliamentarian’s office was ripped apart by the rabble, with footage showing the floor of her rooms covered in files taken from drawers and cabinets.

And finally, developing late Saturday.. Impeachment II may have a friend in the Senate for conviction: PA Senator Toomey..
“I do think the President committed impeachable offenses,” Toomey told Fox News. The senator, who has said he is not going to run for reelection in 2022, would not say whether he would vote to impeach Trump should there be a Senate trial, saying he is not certain what kind of articles of impeachment would be passed by the Democrat-led House of Representatives.
Toomey said he believes Trump’s “behavior this week does disqualify him from serving. But we’ve got 10 days left, 11 days left.””I don’t know whether logistically it’s actually really even possible or practical and I’m not sure it’s desirable to attempt to force him out, what a day or two or three prior to the day on which he’s going to be finished anyway,” Toomey said. “So I’m not clear that’s the best path forward.”
DEVELOPING…
Just prior to President Donald Trump inspiring a crowd to trash the United States Capitol building in Washington DC, Donald Trump Junior videotaped the family disco dancing and partying while the song Gloria blasted in a tent.
The family and Trump associates appeared to be conducting a watch party, it would appear the video was prior to trumps speech but not clear.
The president himself is seen near the end of the video swinging what appears to be a red boxing glove while watching the crowd on the television.
Meanwhile, concerning the use of the song Gloria, this from the estate of Laura Brannigan:
President president Donald Trump tonight has posted a bizarre video on his Twitter account, 12 hours after his initial ban in relation to the violence on Capitol Hill yesterday.
The video appears to show the president conciliatory about the violence, Even stating he called in the National Guard immediately. Something that is probably debatable..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 8, 2021
The typical debate ensued sued. Pro-Trumpers saying that he should go to Parlor, while the anti-Trump crowd serenading him a goodbye. .
But a few others hypothesized something else. Some thing dare we say conspiratorial? The strange imagery of the video seemed bizarre, it looked pixelated, and at points trumps mouth did not even seem to match the words that were coming out..
We have been told how easy deep deep fakes are to make, perhaps easier now than ever before we are told…
And this video was not live. Just taped.
He was tanned. Rested.
No pixelated. At least according to some.
1/6/21 will be a new day of infamy..
Some will defend it, some will say it was ANTIFA..
Others will call it insurrection and treachery.
Before the violence began a the Capitol, the President addressed a crowd of faithful at a “Stop the Steal” rally in DC that the media was at fault, that the election was stolen, and it was time to fight…
Minutes later, as Trump went into his secure limo despite saying he would tell his supporters he would “walk down” with them, MAGA supporters began to break through police lines as storm the United States Capitol building.
Images that graced us today included Trump supporters taking over the halls of Congress, sitting in the Speaker’s chair and posting for a photo, and even sitting in the offices of Congresspersons and rummaging through their paperwork.
Among the harrowing moments: People scaling walls, a shooting, the floor of the Congress being attacked and guarded by a few armed security officials…
Twitter deleted a pre-taped video of Trump telling people to “go home” and subsequently suspended Trump’s account for 12 hours.. many called for a deletion and more..
For some, it feels like a new 9/11, a moment when the nation is shaken to its core..
Never in recent memory have the events of a single 24-hour period so shaken two presidencies, the very Capitol of the United States and the nation itself as they did on Wednesday.
The effects will ripple out for years to come, and the full consequences will be left for historians to sort out. It seems likely, though, that the chances that other Republicans will see Mr. Trump as the leader of their party after he leaves office have been diminished significantly. As Mr. Trump himself tried to remind his supporters after violence broke out, Republicans like to be seen as the party of law and order, and that is hardly the image he is now projecting.
WE will all have to come to grips with this moment in time.. and with time comes perspective. While so many are quick to have an immediate reaction to moments in real time, at unique historical point like this, it is better to refrain from comment and final judgement.. as the historical events have yet to change and end.
Joe Biden has been officially named the President Elect as of 4am today. But will he be the 46th president? Or 47th?
Moments in time captured by screenshot and photographic evidence of anarchy at the nation’s capitol. The world watched, by the way. THAT should be as scary as what we saw yesterday.
