New Zealand's high court has invalidated that country's vaccine mandate, calling it a gross violation of human rights.

Just in time for Biden's State of the Union!

Okay so that one's a stretch.

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was left reeling on Friday after a High Court ruled that her vaccine mandate represented a "gross violation of human rights" for New Zealanders.

The landmark case means that the police and NZDF cannot be fired for refusing to take the experimental vaccine. This case will be used to overthrow all of Ardern's illegal mandates in New Zealand.

Justice Francis Cooke ruled that ordering frontline police officers and Defence staff to be vaccinated or face losing their job was not a "reasonably justified" breach of the Bill of Rights.

Nzherald.co.nz reports: The lawyer for the police and Defence staff at the centre of the claim is now calling for the suspended workers to return to their jobs immediately, saying many have given decades of service to their community and are still committed to their jobs.

The challenge, put forward by a group of Defence force and police employees, questioned the legality of making an order under the Covid-19 Public Health Response Act to require vaccination for frontline employees.

A January 6th defendant, accused of no violence, and not even any vandalism, commits suicide after hearing that the vengeful political police in the Department of Justice are contriving new charges against him in their endless prosecution.

Matthew Perna did nothing wrong on January 6, 2021.

The Pennsylvania man walked through an open door on the Senate side of the building shortly before 3 p.m. that afternoon. Capitol police, shown in surveillance video, stood by as hundreds of Americans entered the Capitol. Wearing a "Make America Great Again" sweatshirt, Perna, 37, left after about 20 minutes.

Less than two weeks later, Perna was ensnared in what the former top U.S. prosecutor called a "shock and awe" campaign to round up Trump supporters and deter them from demonstrating at Joe Biden's inauguration on January 20, 2021. After he discovered his image on the FBI's most wanted list for January 6, Perna immediately contacted his local FBI office and voluntarily submitted to questioning; on January 18, six FBI agents arrested Perna at his home.

His life from that point turned into a nightmare. Perna was indicted by a grand jury in February 2021 on four counts including obstruction of an official proceeding and trespassing misdemeanors. Despite his nonviolent participation in the events of that day--he did not assault anyone, carry a weapon, or vandalize property--Biden's Justice Department and local news media nonetheless made his life pure hell.

Whenever his hometown paper, the Sharon Herald, published an article on its social media account about Perna, the majority of replies were "horrible and brutal," his aunt, Geri Perna, told me on the phone Sunday. After more than a year of legal and public torture, Perna saw no way out.

On Friday night, Matthew Perna hung himself in his garage.

"They broke him, they mentally broke him," Geri said through racking sobs as she explained why her loved one ended his life. "He had run out of hope. I know he couldn't take it any more."

This is why some of us cannot muster more than a "4" for Ukraine on the Concern scale. While NeverTrump scumbags like Dan McLaughlin continue snarling that we must persecute mere trespassers even harder.

Trespassers. In the "People's House." KILL THEM ALL.

Oh, and free the people of Ukraine.

The New York Times' racist agitator Hannah Nikole Jones gets angry that a story has taken the spotlight away from the only story she insists we're allowed to talk about, which is her claim that Evil Whites are making war on innocent blacks and must be destroyed:

I'm not thrilled that the lockstep media is demanding that the only thing we can talk about this week is Ukraine, either, but I would not agree that with Jones that we should not talk about Ukraine because we must go back to talking about George Floyd, BLM grievance, and the 1619 Project hoax she forced schools to teach.

There's a lot of silly propaganda being passed around by the Lies Are Good, Lies Are How We Control the Populace Neocon/Neoliberal Alliance:

Some people are parodying the propaganda:

That doesn't mean people are "working for Putin." It does mean that people are getting tired of being fed a steady diet of Putinesque lies and Soviet-style propaganda.

Please stop pushing Soviet-style propaganda on us 24/7 and then telling us you're the ones "defending democracy." That would be swell.

Update: Oh my:

53 Don't forget Kinzinger's now-deleted tweet praising "Samuyil Hyde", the Ghost of Kyiv. Those with just a bit of passing familiarity with chan-culture will spot the issue here. Posted by: Dworkin Barimen - anarcho-tyranny? you're soaking in it!

The deleted tweet is here.

For those who don't know, determined trollsters prank the internet and claim that every school shooter is Sam Hyde, and often get the media to report that as a fact. Sam Hyde is an internet comic who founded the "Million Dollar Extreme" group.
