Government making a Dairy Farm in Southern Ontario dump 30,000 litres of milk because they have gone over quota.
Can’t donate it to a food bank, or to a hospital, or to a homeless shelter. Right down the drain so we can pay $7 per litre for milk.

Lest we forget.

🇺🇸🏴‍☠️🇺🇦Harassment and embezzlement flourished at the Sean Penn Charitable Foundation, Bloomberg journalists found out.

They closely followed the activities of CORE, a charity that Penn founded in 2010, but under a different name. Renamed in 2019.

Last year, the fund raised $1.6 million (more than 112 million rubles) in one evening in Miami, ostensibly to help Brazil in the fight against COVID-19. True, the money never reached the republic. It turned out that the day before the charity event, CORE… curtailed its activities in Brazil.

According to the audit, the company spent huge sums on renting luxurious hotel rooms, gala receptions and flights on business jets.

Photographers were a separate column. They recorded the work of volunteers around the world for big sums.

This was also the case during Sean Penn's trip to Kyiv, where he presented Zelensky with an Oscar (pictured). Bloomberg found that there was no large-scale financial support for Nezalezhnaya. Only three volunteers worked in the fund in this direction, two of which have never been to Ukraine.

In addition, former employees told reporters that sexual harassment flourished in the organization, but management ignored all complaints. For public criticism, some even received threatening letters from Sean Penn himself.

The next step in the COVID psy-op is going to be "cooling the mark out."

In any con, the most dangerous part is AFTER the mark has been successfully deceived and defrauded and it begins to dawn on the mark that they've been defrauded. What if the mark gets mad and lashes out? Or worse, goes to the authorities and threatens to call out the con artists and disrupt their operations? There are a variety of techniques con artists employ to avoid these undesirable outcomes.

First, the con is structured so that the mark is complicit in illicit activity. The operation that was going to turn a quick buck for the mark was shady to begin with, so the mark will be reluctant to approach the authorities and admit they were involved in an attempted fraud. For instance, the mark "knew" the horse race they were betting on was to be "rigged" in their favor and when the rigging "falls apart" and the mark loses their money, it's hard for the mark to go to the police with their suspicions that they were defrauded while in the process of trying to commit a fraud themselves.

In the vaccine context a great many victims of the COVID vaccine fraud were encouraged to pressure their friends, family, employees, and coworkers to get vaccinated. Some even injected their children. It's very hard to complain about vaccine wrong doing when so many of the victims were complicit in the wrong doing.This is a trick totalitarian governments know well. If all the police and authorities are complicit in the persecution of undesirables, there will be no untainted authorities left to bring the wrongdoers to justice without risking exposure of their own wrongdoing.

But the key technique is something called "cooling the mark out." A critical element of the con is that one of the conspirators stays close to the victim to manage the mark after the "blowoff," after the "mistake" or "accident" that costs the mark all his money and most of the con gang have departed for greener pastures. One conspirator, called the "cooler," may also appear to have lost money, too, and be in the same boat. The cooler consoles the victim to accept the loss stoically and not cause trouble.

The mark's ego has taken a bruising. The mark thought they were a clever person able to make good decisions and turn a fast buck, or in this case, make smart decisions about their health and medical treatment. The mark thought they were shrewd, but must face the fact that they were in fact an easy mark.

The cooler must provide the mark with a set of face-saving explanations to restore in some way. The mark really was very shrewd, it just didn't work out for circumstances beyond anyone's control. The mark made an extremely clever decision - based on what they knew at the time and who could possibly have predicted things could have gone wrong like that?

The mark was going to give a portion of their winnings to a worthy charity. Or was acting to help keep the community safe by accepting the potential risk of the vaccine. So even though the decision doesn't look so smart in retrospect, the mark's heart was in the right place, and they are truly a virtuous person.

The mark may be allowed to rant and rave as a cathartic release with the cooler assuring them that they "feel their pain." The cooler stalls the mark allowing time for the mark to emotionally distance themselves from their loss.

Another tactic is secrecy. In the classic con, the mark is usually an out-of-towner, the rural hayseed come to the big city and far away from friends, family, and associates. Thus, the mark's shame and humiliation can be private, unknown to the mark's social circle.

In the case of the vaccinated, in many cases their vaccinated status can remain a secret, and they will not have to publicly face the shame and humiliation of making a poor decision.

The cooler may generously throw a token sum to the mark to make them feel better - money for train fare home, for instance.

What's the equivalent for vaccine victims? In the 2017 pandemic planning document, SPARS Pandemic Scenario 2025-2032, pandemic response planners explicitly considered the vaccine injury problem. The planned response is to wait until public pressure builds, call for an inquiry to further stall, and ultimately hand out token sums to the subset of victims who can "prove" their injuries were vaccine-related. At no point will the pharma execs or regulators responsible for the debacle ever suffer any consequences for it, if the pandemic planners have their way. See Chapter 17, page 59.

Isn't the cooler - or in this case the authorities responsible for the COVID vaccine debacle - nice and generous people after all, trying to make things right and help out the mark?

"The traditions of humanity support humanity and the central one is this tradition of Marriage. And the essential of it is that a free man and a free woman choose to found on earth the only voluntary state; the only state which creates and which loves its citizens. So long as these real responsible beings stand together, they can survive all the vast changes, deadlocks, and disappointments which make up mere political history."

- G.K. Chesterton
