This Is Going To Be A REALLY “Dark Winter” For Both America And The Entire Planet

Francesco Abbruzzino, The Uncensored Report, LLC

 

 

Enjoy the times that you are able to spend with family and friends now, because things are starting to get really crazy out there.  The official beginning of winter is upon us, and just in time there is a frightening new COVID variant that is scaring the living daylights out of politicians all over the planet.  Of course those deeply frightened politicians are going to respond to this new threat just like they have responded to every other chapter of this crisis so far.  They are going to spend even more money, they are going to relentlessly promote the injections that the big pharmaceutical companies are pushing, and they are going to impose more absurd authoritarian measures.  Needless to say, that means that this is going to be a really bad winter for the entire globe.

 

On Monday, the Biden administration stunned people all over the country when it promised a “winter of severe illness and death” for those that have declined to get vaccinated.  The following comes from the official White House website

 

For the unvaccinated, you’re looking at a winter of severe illness and death for yourselves, your families, and the hospitals you may soon overwhelm.

 

So, our message to every American is clear: There is action you can take to protect yourself and your family. Wear a mask in public indoor settings. Get vaccinated, get your kids vaccinated, and get a booster shot when you’re eligible.

 

Have we ever seen such a bizarre statement come out of the White House?

 

Those words are seething with contempt for those that have refused to do what Biden wants them to do.

 

Shortly after this statement was released, critics of Biden started firing back.  For example, this is what Tim Murtaugh had to say on Twitter

 

Going into the year of the midterm elections, the Biden White House has settled on its slogan.

 

“A winter of severe illness and death.”

 

Sounds like a winner.

 

Actually, it is quite likely that we will see a tremendous amount of illness and death this winter, but it won’t be in the places that Biden is expecting.

 

Just look at what is happening in New York City.  Even though the vast majority of the city is “fully vaccinated”, New York has broken its single day case record for four days in a row

 

New York state’s vaccinated health commissioner tested positive for COVID-19 via a rapid test, marking yet another breakthrough case as the Big Apple battles a record-breaking viral surge, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Monday as she acknowledged the open seat next to her. Dr. Mary T. Bassett has also gotten her booster, she added.

 

News of the positive test for the state’s leading health official came the same day the Empire State broke its own single-day pandemic case record for a fourth straight day, with Hochul reporting nearly 23,400 new cases overnight. The lion’s share of those infections come from New York City, where over 15,000 people tested positive, up nearly 50% since Friday.

 

As Omicron spreads very rapidly in New York and elsewhere, spooked investors are starting to dump their stocks.  On Monday, the Dow was down another 433 points

 

U.S. stocks slid Monday, continuing last week’s losses, as the rapid spread of the omicron variant continues to worry investors who fear the new surge could hamper economic growth.

 

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 433 points, or 1.23%, while the S&P 500 index and Nasdaq Composite index declined 1.14% and 1.24%, respectively. At session lows, the Dow was down 699.94 points, or 1.98%.

 

If fear of Omicron continues to grow, that will be very bad news for the financial markets.

 

Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo is warning that Omicron could make the worst supply chain crisis in U.S. history even worse

 

Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo is concerned the Omicron coronavirus variant will exacerbate pressure on the already stressed-out global supply chain.

 

“It’s way too soon to tell. But I do worry, because we know people are afraid to go to work,” Raimondo told CNN during an interview at her Washington office.

 

And it appears that a fresh wave of inflation is now upon us.

 

Lumber prices were on the cutting edge of the last wave, and they are starting to go absolutely nuts once again

 

Futures for January delivery ended Friday at $1,089.10 per thousand board feet, twice the price for a prompt delivery in mid-November.

 

Cash prices are way up as well. Pricing service Random Lengths said that its framing composite index, which tracks on-the-spot sales, has jumped 65% since October, to $915. A $129 gain this week was the biggest on record, eclipsing a $124 jump in May, when lumber prices crested at all-time highs.
