Belarus Marks One Year Since Disputed Presidential Election

 

Reuters: Defiant Belarus leader shrugs off sanctions, says athlete was 'manipulated' 

KYIV/LONDON/WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A defiant President Alexander Lukashenko said on Monday a Belarusian sprinter defected at the Olympic Games only because she had been "manipulated" by outside forces and shrugged off a coordinated barrage of new Western sanctions. 

At an hours-long news conference on the anniversary of an election which opponents said was rigged so that he could win, Lukashenko denied being a dictator and said he had defended Belarus against opponents plotting a coup. 

As he spoke in his presidential palace in Minsk, Britain, Canada and the United States announced coordinated sanctions targeting the Belarusian economy and its financial sector, including exports of oil products and potash, which is used in fertilisers and is Belarus' main foreign currency earner.

I blame Reagan for both.

It'd obvious by now that they used the virus or the scare to get rid of Trump, the nationalist, who wanted borders.
Instead, you'll get globalism shoved down your throats. No more rights, no more anything, because everything is covid

Doesn't matter to the corporate media that from detection (PCR) to treatment(mRNA) the actual scientists and Nobel prize winners WARNED US of this and not to use their technologies this way.

Fauci said... science science

THEY'R SUPPRESSING ACTUAL SCIENTISTS and give you corporate news and globalism instead.

You're being enslaved.

And why they do it: because the system is about to collapse, a system they knew was build on sand and they, in their endless lust for wealth, plundered.

They want to usher in a new system in which you're not allowed to talk of their crimes, you'll have no more privacy, complete tyranny. It's coming.

And until you recognize what the Democrats and Republicans did together, and allow to happen, together, you will no longer be free.

It is the duty of every free man and woman to stand up to this tyranny, this censorship of scientists and journalists.. this cult of deplatforming and cancel culture must end. LOOK at what it does, it wrecks havoc, it destroys equality under the law. It's against the constitution and you must defend the constitution or we all will be enslaved.

Good luck, and go on the offensive. Hold those accountable to the maximum extent of the law who pushed these drugs on you through the corporate media

Look at the leaked Pfizer country contract, OF COURSE it forces governments into this tyranny and censorship because they made multiple mistakes by incompetence or nefarious reasons. I think the latter, you cannot be that stupid and mandate a vaccine that we know doesn't give immunity and has killed all lab animals in prior test, and they RUSHED it in operation warp speed and scientists are SCREAMING to end this


But they want their money and they are legally indemnified through the government that is now all in, instead of reversing course, they'll do what they always do: pit us against each other. They'll blame the unvaccinated against all data.

If they do it, it's a clear sign that they have lost all legitimacy and at this point armed resistance is not only justified but mandatory.. they've broken all laws and lost all credibility.

This is the line.
