UN Issues Report Pushing for Normalization and Decriminalization of Pedophilia
The UN is pushing a report that declares pedophilia is a human right. This is why the US needs to get out of and stop funding the UN.
Elizabeth Yore was on Steve Bannon’s War Room to express her concerns with a new report being pushed by the UN that recommends making pedophilia legal.
[…]
According to Yore, the UN is reportedly pushing a report that calls for the normalization and decriminalization of pedophilia.
Liz Yore shared on the War Room on Tuesday:
“The United Nations is now declaring that pedophilia is a human right and this so-called human right should not be criminalized or prosecuted. They are clearly saying that minors can consent to sex with an adult.”
Yore says that “they are softening the target” by grooming kids and teachers in schools to make pedophilia a human right.
“This is what the global elite have always wanted to legitimize pedophilia. I’ve never seen a report like this.” — The Gateway Pundit
Our Take: “They're coming after our kids more so than they already are. It's an old game and an old, deplorable appetite. For various reasons, disturbed people can develop a taste for children. It happens more than we'd like to admit.
Some experts suggest that only 10% of child abuse cases get reported. As if this wasn't already a hard pill to swallow, the highest and most powerful organizations on earth (UN et al) are, apparently, trying to normalize this insidious practice.
The trans agenda appears to be a part of this greater normalization agenda. How? Because if children can make life altering decisions to mutilate their body's and sterilize themselves, surely they can consent to having sex with an adult? Sex education is teaching kids as young as 5 and 6 about sexual acts. All the arrows point to this ultimate goal of pedophilia normalization. The UN report details other avenues for achieving the goal.
I'm skeptical that it will succeed given the fact so many people are up and arms over the trans grooming issue. But it's already a dire situation. Children are abused, mutilated, indoctrinated, deprived of proper education and life preparation, and a litany of other horrors that have become normal features of life. It would be foolish to think that the situation couldn't get worse—if we let it by doing nothing in the face of these developments.” — Justin Deschamps
Former Director Of National Intelligence Admits That Fauci Lied About Gain Of Function Research
Only two years ago numerous alternative media sources including Zero Hedge were accused of spreading "conspiracy theories" and false information relating to the origins of the Covid-19 virus. Specifically, anyone who dared to suggest that the Level 4 virology lab in Wuhan, China (right across town from covid ground zero) might be the source of the outbreak, faced outright censorship on social media. The question many people should have been asking is: "Why?" - Why was the censorship so aggressive over clearly reasonable investigations into Wuhan lab operations?
Not only that, but why were the denials and spin from officials like Anthony Fauci so swift? Why not simply examine the evidence instead of dismissing it out of hand?
The real reason for the campaign to silence discussion on the Wuhan lab becomes evident as the connections between Fauci, the NIH and the lab are revealed. Elements of the US government including Fauci were in fact bankrolling gain of function research on coronaviruses at Wuhan, and shielding it from government oversight. It is undeniable. If one accepts that the most likely source for the covid pandemic was the Wuhan laboratory then one must also accept that Fauci and his associates helped to create the pandemic.
Fauci lied about these connections incessantly under oath.
[…]
Scrutiny over Fauci's disinformation campaign may be too little too late, and we have to wonder if the man will ever face consequences for his actions. However, the exposure of Fauci and the NIH is so overwhelming that the former Director of National Intelligence now admits that Fauci misled Congress and the American public. — ZeroHedge
Our Take: “Take a look at the current lay of the Info War land:
The CIA has recently been implicated in the Nord Stream sabotage by a Pulitzer winning leftist
A former FBI agent submitted sworn testimony that the CIA was involved in the recruitment of Saudi’s alleged to have been involved in 9/11
The son of Robert Kennedy and nephew of JFK is running for President in 2024, while going to war with the D Party
Former Director of National Intelligence claiming Fauci lied under oath re: origins of COVID-19
New batch of DECLAS in June, shedding further light on CIA communications surrounding JFK plot

But nothing is happening …” — Burning Bright
Trudeau Accuses Elon Musk of “Attacking Independent Media Organizations”
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau openly accused Elon Musk of “attacking foundational Canadian institutions” Monday after Twitter slapped CBC, Canada’s mostly state funded media outlet with a “government funded” label.
Trudeau claimed that CBC is an “independent media organization,” despite the fact that it is almost wholly funded by the Canadian government.
The Canadian leader lumped Musk in with his conservative opponents, and charged that they had “run to American billionaire tech giants” to “constantly attack” Canadians.
“They’re choosing to constantly attack independent media organizations, journalists who are working hard to keep Canadians informed and support our democracy,” Trudeau proclaimed. — Summit News
Our Take: “Trust Trudeau? Not a chance. You know you're dealing with an agenda of deception when the mere mention of the truth causes such a stir. In this case, simply labeling a media org as government funded—which they are—is a high crime and an ‘attack on independent media organization,’ at least, according to Trudeau.
Why would this be such a problem? Confidence. The globalists are in effect professional conmen. They are inheritors of an ancient art, the grand con. The con uses images pushed through the media—in this case, the illusion that our media orgs are independent and unbiased politically, to spread propaganda.
Now that Musk is boldly declaring the facts, the corporate lace between the propaganda media's legs is bound up tighter than Jerry Ladler's belt line after a Clinton pay-for-play banquet. The hypocrisy is palatable. Twitter, an org that prior to Musk's buyout, notoriously labeled all manner of posts as disinformation or hateful or what have you, is simply applying the same standards to the mainstream as has been applied to the non-mainstream.
Oh, how these guys hate rules being fairly applied to all (the rule of law). Like any cheater, any con man, any fraudster, they get bent out of shape when the con is at risk.” — Ryan DeLarme
California's 'Dream For All' Home Down Payment Program Ran Out Of Money In 12 Days
Demand for California’s new downpayment assistance program overwhelmed the system and depleted its $300 million budget in less than 12 days, with applications put on pause effective April 7, according to the housing finance agency.
The legislator responsible for proposing the program responded optimistically to the news.
“It is incredible and inspiring to see that the launch of the California Dream for All program has already been so successful,” Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins (D-San Diego) said in a statement April 14. “The fact that it has helped more than 2,400 first-time homebuyers with their down payments in its first two weeks is terrific.
Designed to provide up to 20 percent of funding for low-income first-time home buyers, the “Dream for All” program was initiated with the passage of Assembly Bill 140 in 2021.
Resources are provided through the Dream for All Shared Appreciation Loan, in which the state provides a portion of the down payment in exchange for a share in the property.
The loan, in addition to a portion of the appreciated value of the home, will be repaid when the property is resold, according to the legislation. — The Epoch Times
Our Take: “As much as we hate the Globalist Deep State, sometimes you just have to tip your cap to them for a game well played.
Scratch that.
These commies can go straight to hell.
In their latest ‘slavery disguised as opportunity’ play, they’ve taken to subsidizing the loans of underprivileged (read: middle class) home buyers, who can no longer afford homes in any desirable metro or suburb in the United States.
As such, the government will happily step in and take ownership of a piece of your loan, backstopping it in a manner that creates a scenario in which you not only owe the bank, but you ALSO owe the government … as if there’s a distinction between the two.
When Anons say the whole corrupt, diseased temple needs to be brought down … they’re not joking.” — Burning Bright

Response to deleted black pilled comment:
Well actually there are many at the lower rungs of the cabal who have seen some measure of punishment. Ghislaine Maxwell being at the top of that pyramid. Dozens of years in prison is a good start.
Next we have the estimated hundreds of child and sex traffickers who are being arrested and face lengthy jail times.
Next we have a good dozen or so election fraud perpetrators who have been caught and similarly face some fairly severe sanctions.
If one examines how RICO cases are pursued, one learns that the small fry always gets rolled up first. That makes me optimistic that good things will be coming.
Is Ghislaine small fry? Absolutely, if you consider whom she may already have implicated.
It’s salutary to remember that a rotten system formed over the past century will not get dismantled in one or three presidential terms.
I for one share BB’s disdain for the blindly black pilled. To be they are akin to deserters in the foxhole.
Go ahead, be depressed. Walk away, get therapy, whatever.
But do not infect the rest of the army fighting in the trenches.
I think it is important to note that when someone says, "nothing is happening" what they are really saying is... accountability and consequence of heinous actions are not being punished. We know, and can all see, that a great deal 'is happening' but handcuffs and jail time and electric chairs and firing squads might perk people up a little and may actually get the attention of the normie.
