Johns Hopkins University Launches New Website Detailing Coronavirus Cases Updated In Real-Time And Getting Over A Billion Requests Per Day

Johns Hopkins University Launches New Website Detailing Coronavirus Cases Updated In Real-Time And Getting Over A Billion Requests Per Day by Geoffrey Grider “At the moment we’re getting well over a billion requests per day — or interactions with this dashboard on a daily basis. It’s gone viral on almost every social media channel that exists,” Gardner said. It doesn't even rank in the Top 20 diseases killing people in the United States or anywhere else around the globe, yet somehow the world is going coronavirus crazy as our new international obsession. Case in point is the new website from Johns Hopkins University that is currently getting over one billion requests, or hits, per day. Ironically, when you view the infection rate, the mortality rate and the recovery rate, it is actually quite comforting. "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." John 8:32 (KJB) Why do I say it's comforting? Simple, look at it. The green line representing the recovery rate is actually spiking sharper than the infection rate, which means that it is nowhere near as scary as we have been led to believe it is. And the mortality rate, the number of people dying from it, is hovering around 3%, roughly the same as people who die from the flu. So why is everyone so freaked out about the coronavirus? We live in a time when a spirit of fear, and end times spirit, is rising rapidly, causing people to take their eyes off of God and on the world with its myriad issues and problems. The rising spirit is preparing the way for the soon arrival of Antichrist who will come on the scene after the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church takes place. Born again Christians need not fear the outbreak of the coronavirus or any other disease for that matter. Our lives are not our own, we've been bought with a price, and it is the Lord who decides how and when each one of us will exit this world. Wash your hands, stay away from sick people, get your rest, eat right and drink lots of pure water. Put your faith in God, and not in the fear of man. Johns Hopkins Launches Coronavirus Website: More than 1 Billion Requests a Day FROM BREITBART NEWS: Johns Hopkins University experts held a press briefing on Friday on Capitol Hill to discuss efforts to confront coronavirus as it spreads around the globe, including the launch of a website with an interactive dashboard that collects data worldwide about the virus, including data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Lauren Gardner, co-director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering, led the team that designed the dashboard, which has a wide range of always-updating data, from the number of confirmed cases (105,559), the number of deaths from the virus (3,555), the number of people who have recovered (58,354) and cases by region and country. Gardner said that statistics about users of the dashboard shows that the public is mostly using it “looking for reliable, factual information.” But local, state and federal governments, public health agencies — “and pretty much everything in between” are also using it, Gardner said. Statistics show people in the United States account for the majority of users. Gardner said her team has been taken aback but just how popular the dashboard has become. “It’s been pretty popular for awhile,” Gardner said. “At the moment we’re getting well over a billion requests per day — or interactions with this dashboard on a daily basis. It’s gone viral on almost every social media channel that exists,” Gardner said. “So I think that this really speaks to this huge demand for reliable, trustworthy, objective information especially around situations like these,” Gardner said. Others experts on the panel included Jason Farley, professor in the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing; Tom Inglesby, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and a professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health; Lisa Maragakis, epidemiologist and senior director of infection prevention for the Johns Hopkins Health System; and Andy Pekosz, co-director of the Johns Hopkins Center of Excellence in Influenza Research and Surveillance and professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Panelists called for public calm and warned about the danger of misinformation that is pumped out daily online, including on social media, where Pekosz said health experts have been engaging in conversations to try to get the facts out. Inglesby said there remains “substantial work” that still needs to be done to make the U.S. health infrastructure capable of handling the virus. And, according to Ingelsby, a vaccine that can be made available widely to the public is still 12 to 18 months out. The panel distributed literature that included tips to stop the spread of the virus, including avoiding contact with people who are sick; coughing into a tissue and disposing of the tissue properly; avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth; clean and disinfect objects and surfaces; stay home when sick except to seek medical help; and wash your hands with soap frequently for at least 20 seconds. READ MORE

Democrats Can Steal The Nomination From Sanders And Give It To Biden, But How Much Longer Can They Take His Deteriorating Mental Condition?

New post on Now The End Begins

Democrats Can Steal The Nomination From Sanders And Give It To Biden, But How Much Longer Can They Take His Deteriorating Mental Condition? by Geoffrey Grider “We all see what’s going on here and it’s going to be a disaster if we nominate Joe Biden,” he added. “he is mentally deteriorating, we all see it." The Democratic Party, as they continue to rig the game against Communist Bernie Sanders, has an even bigger problem on their hands, and that is the obviously declining mental acuity of candidate for president Joe Biden. He is nearly 80 years old, and in video and video he is not just spewing out gaffes, he appears confused, easily anger and disoriented. All these things are symptoms of diminishing mental capacity. My kid's grandfather on their mom's side is sadly afflicted with early onset dementia, and his mental state is quite similar to that of Joe Biden. Joe Biden in recent weeks has lashed out at his supporters, calling one man "fat" and challenging him to do push-ups, he called a young college-age woman a "lying, dog-faced pony soldier", and he has numerous other outbursts as well. My kid's grandfather is much the same way. A lot of the time he holds a conversation with a smile on his face, but he cannot sustain it and eventually lapses into outbursts of temper, outrageous statements and confusion. Listening to Joe Biden speak at a rally is not the same as having to stay hyper-focused in a debate, and Biden is not even staying focused at his rallies. He will have to debate not only Bernie Sanders, but then go head to head with Donald Trump. For a man that confuses his wife with his sister, who says he is "running for the Senate", and admonishes parents to "turn on their record players" for their children, this can only end badly. The Democrats can rig the election against Comrade Sanders, they did it before with him and Hillary. But what they cannot do is successfully hide Joe Biden's fading mental condition. Below are recent videos of Joe Biden showing his current mental state, watch and decide for yourself. Democrat Strategist Justin Horwitz: Joe Biden Is ‘Mentally Deteriorating’ FROM BREITBART NEWS: Democrat strategist and backer of Sen. Bernie Sanders Justin Horwitz said during a Thursday appearance on Tucker Carlson Tonight that Joe Biden is “mentally deteriorating” and that it will be a “disaster” if the Democrat establishment’s purported efforts to “shield” the former vice president prevail, leading to a head to head matchup with President Trump. Horwitz, an outspoken Sanders supporter, spoke with Tucker Carlson Thursday night and discussed the Democrat establishment’s purported efforts to “shield” a “mentally deteriorating” Biden from the public. “He is a candidate that is mentally deteriorating. People in the Democratic establishment say, ‘Oh don’t say that.’ They really believe that they can shield Joe Biden from public scrutiny and the reality is, they can’t,” he said. “We all see what’s going on here and it’s going to be a disaster if we nominate Joe Biden,” he added. When asked by Carlson if he believes that the Democrat establishment is “perfectly aware” of what is happening with Biden, Horwitz noted that “everyone is perfectly aware with what is happening with Joe Biden,” calling him a “candidate in decline.” “We all see it. He can’t get on stage without making some type of gaffe, and these aren’t the same gaffes that he made in his previous two failed presidential runs,” he said. “These gaffes are a lot more serious. These gaffes clearly indicate that he is not all there anymore.” Horwitz said Biden’s state will be on display to a greater degree in coming debates when he goes against Sanders — who he called a “sharp debater” — head to head. “I think Bernie picks up steam and ends up winning the nomination because Biden simply can’t debate,” Horwitz said. “They’re trying to protect him from being in public. Well, unfortunately when you run for president, you’re going to be in public,” he continued. “People are going to see what’s happening.” Horwitz made similar remarks during a February appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, noting that it was “obvious” that Biden is “not all there anymore” READ MORE

Columbia Pictures Launching ‘Cinderella’ Remake With Dress Wearing LGBTQ Actor Billy Porter Who Will Play A ‘Genderless’ Fairy Godmother

New post on Now The End Begins

Columbia Pictures Launching ‘Cinderella’ Remake With Dress Wearing LGBTQ Actor Billy Porter Who Will Play A ‘Genderless’ Fairy Godmother by Geoffrey Grider The fairy godmother for Cinderella will be portrayed as 'genderless' by homosexual male actor Billy Porter in a remake of the classic fairytale by Columbia Pictures. Bit by bit, they are tearing down the fabric of society, erasing not only the distinctions of male and female, but the identity of our two genders as well. Why? Because God created us male and female, and Satan cannot implement his plan with those foundations in place. And since Leviathan, a type of the Devil in the Bible, is the king over the 'children of pride', he is instructing his children to tear everything down to the ground, and the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement is doing just that. Meet gay, dress wearing actor Billy Porter. "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" Psalms 11:3 (KJB) People are not, and indeed cannot be genderless, it is not only a ridiculous notion, it is also quite anti-scientific as well. For 6,000 years, no one has disputed the fact that there are only two genders, not until our generation has this idea been floated. It's not only being floated, but it's being forced on us as well by our school systems, the media, and through music and movies as well. Basically, we are surrounded and they are attempting to beat us into submission. Will you submit? If you answered yes, go watch a homosexual play a genderless fairy godmother in the upcoming remake of 'Cinderella'. Cinderella remake to feature ‘genderless’ fairy godmother played by gay man FROM LIFE SITE NEWS: Emmy-award winning Billy Porter, who identifies with his same-sex attractions, will be cast as Cinderella’s magic-weaving godparent. Porter, celebrated in Broadway circles for wearing women’s clothing, told CBS on Monday that he thought it “profound” that he was playing the role. “It hit me when I was on the set last week, how profound it is that I am playing the fairy godmother — they call it the Fab G," he said, without specifying who “they” were. "Magic has no gender," he continued. “We are presenting this character as genderless. That’s how I’m playing it. And it’s really powerful.” Billy Porter did not explain why he believes that erasing the female identity of the most famous godmother in European folklore is powerful. Novelist and pro-life women’s rights activitist Fiorella Nash told LifeSiteNews that there is a certain amount of power involved when male actors appropriate women’s roles. “It is so hard for female actors to get any roles after the age of 35,” Nash said.  “It is powerful when men take over a women’s role because misogynists have been trying to erase female identity for centuries,” she continued.  “They’ve just found a ‘woke’ way of doing it.” Nash noted that the swapping of male and female roles is a “staple” of the British pantomime tradition, in which men still dress up as older women characters (including the Fab G in panto versions of Cinderella) and women used to dress up as the hero, but that there is no tradition of men playing women’s roles in film. If there were, there would be even fewer good roles for women, Nash said. “You already have a situation where there are, I think, seven strong male roles for every one female, and that’s partly because for so long theatre was a male-only domain,” she explained. “So if you take a really strong female role and give it to a man, you’re doing what has always been done to squeeze women out of the industry. There’s absolutely no excuse for it.” Nash said she wouldn’t take her children to the new Cinderella, which is scheduled to appear in 2021, because they would just find a man playing a “genderless” fairy godmother ridiculous.  “There’s no such thing as a genderless human being, like it or not,” said Nash. READ MORE

California To Exempt LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Child Rapists From The Sex Offender Registry If They Are Not More That 10 Years Older Than Their Victim

New post on Now The End Begins

California To Exempt LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Child Rapists From The Sex Offender Registry If They Are Not More That 10 Years Older Than Their Victim by Geoffrey Grider Lawmakers in California are working on legislation that would exempt some homosexual and transgender child rapists from the state's sex offender registry, leaving registration up to the discretion of the individual judge. People in the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement get their panties all in a bunch because I say that they are going to be adding umbrella protection for the pedophile in the near future. So near, I believe, that I have already given them credit for doing it and have added to to their alphabet soup acronym to save them the time and trouble of doing it themselves. To bolster my argument, I present to you today's article on how California is trying right now to get more legal protection for the LGBTQ+ pedophile in their state. "Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come! It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones. Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him." Luke 17:1-3 (KJB) The bill is dubbed as the “LGBTQ Young People Nondiscrimination in the Sex Offender Registry Act,” and the upshot of it is this. If you are a 24-year old homosexual and/or transgender pedophile, and you wind up raping and sodomizing a young teen who is 14 or 15 years old, then you will not have to have your name put on a sex offender registry. They have set a limit that as long as the pedophile is 10 years or less older, then you are not considered a candidate for the sex offender registry. Why do this? It's just another shot at normalizing something that is very abnormal and perverted. California Wants to Exempt LGBTQ+ Pedophile Child Rapists from Sex-Offender Registry FROM FREEDOM MEDIA PROJECT: Considering the make-up of California's far-left judiciary and the broader state government, it is virtually a certainty that many child-raping homosexuals and transgenders will be left off the list of sex-offenders. The bill, dubbed “LGBTQ Young People Nondiscrimination in the Sex Offender Registry Act,” is ludicrously being described by proponents as a “civil rights” issue, as if there were a civil right for adult homosexuals to sodomize children. Under the legislation, a 24-year-old grown man would be able to sodomize a 14-year-old boy and claim it was “consensual.” Of course, 14-year-old children cannot consent to sodomy — or vote, smoke, drink, drive, sign contracts, and so on — because they are children. Right now, homosexual or transgender rapists who rape and sodomize children are automatically added to the state's sex-offender registry. This helps alert the local community to the dangers lurking in their midst. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU VISIT THIS SECTION ON A FULL STOMACH, BUT HERE IT IS, PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Under the bill, though, state judges would decide on a case-by-case basis whether to add the rapists into the registry, if the victim was within 10 years of the perpetrator. That is how the state currently treats vaginal intercourse, and so, hiding behind “equality,” the LGBT lobby wants sodomy-based rape protected, too. Even some Democrats thought that was too much to swallow. “No sex between a 24 and 14 year old is consensual,” explained Assemblyman Lorena Gonzalez, a Democrat, when temporarily blocking the widely criticized legislation last year. But California's sexual revolutionaries, led by vicious homosexual activist group “Equality California,” exploded in outrage when their bill was blocked. That's because the state's perversion lobby is doing everything possible to protect child predators — and to normalize pedophilia, too. For instance, under the guise of complying with an Equality California-backed statute mandating LGBT indoctrination of children, government schools were caught using a curriculum that included ancient Greek child rape as part of LGBT “history.” When an outraged mother complained at a public meeting, the Assistant Superintendent of Curricula for the district, Kerrie Torres, dropped a bombshell that sparked a national scandal (and a half-baked cover up by the perverts running the fake fact-checking service Snopes). “This is done because we are talking about historical perspectives of how gender relations and different types of sexual orientations have existed in history,” said Torres about why pedophilia was being taught to young children. “It's something that occurred in history, and so this is really important for us to include.” Another key element of the LGBT history is Harvey Milk, the first openly homosexual elected official in America. Milk, who was elected with support from the cult of mass-murderer Jim Jones, was also a child rapist, and some of his child victims went on to commit suicide. Influential activists are outraged about the new assault on common sense. “While it’s already disgusting that California law offers any leniency whatsoever toward statutory rapists, it’s wholly unsurprising that LGBT advocates are demanding 'equality' for the criminals among their camp as well,” fumed Elizabeth Johnston on her extremely popular “Activist Mommy” site. “This is all part of a growing trend to normalize adult-child sexual relationships, particularly within the LGBT community, something we’ve been documenting for some time now,” added Johnston, a powerful voice of sanity. “It is simply mind-boggling that anyone would be so deceived as to support legislation like this all in the name of 'equality'.” California appears to be becoming the new Sodom and Gomorrah, with perversion enshrined into law and forced down the throats of captive school children while those who resist are viciously demonized and persecuted. Americans must ensure that the deadly disease afflicting the once Golden State does not infect the rest of the nation. READ MORE

New Tracking Software Called ‘Locate X’ Allows US Law Enforcement To Track And Locate Anyone At Any Time With No Need For A Warrant

New post on Now The End Begins

New Tracking Software Called ‘Locate X’ Allows US Law Enforcement To Track And Locate Anyone At Any Time With No Need For A Warrant by Geoffrey Grider U.S. law enforcement agencies signed millions of dollars worth of contracts with  Virginia company Babel Street after it rolled out powerful tool 'Locate X' that uses data from popular mobile apps to track the movement of people's cell phones, according to federal contracting records and six people familiar with the software. Isn't it odd, that as we speed our way through these end times we are living in, that so many of these companies that make Mark Of The Beast style tracking products are referencing the bible? Case in point is Babel Street, as in the Tower of Babel, whose new product 'Locate X', will help you find anyone, anywhere and at any time just by following the movement of what they do on the apps on their mobile device? "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." Revelation 13:16-18 (KJB) We are embracing the onslaught of technology so quickly now, that we are no longer aware of how incredibly small the world has become, and how ridiculously easy it has become to keep tabs on someone. All this forward movement is rapidly bringing this lost world into it's inevitable and unstoppable, face to face meeting with Antichrist who is going to roll out an app that the whole world, with few exceptions, will install in their bodies. If you are that time period as you read this, whatever you do, don't take his Mark, God will not forgive you if you do. Through apps, not warrants, ‘Locate X’ allows federal law enforcement to track phones FROM PROTOCOL: The product, called Locate X and sold by Babel Street, allows investigators to draw a digital fence around an address or area, pinpoint mobile devices that were within that area, and see where else those devices have traveled, going back months, the sources told Protocol. They said the tool tracks the location of devices anonymously, using data that popular cell phone apps collect to enable features like mapping or targeted ads, or simply to sell it on to data brokers. The Supreme Court, in the landmark case Carpenter v. United States, ruled in June 2018 that the government must obtain a search warrant to access cell-tower location data for individual phone accounts. The court "recognized that the government needs a warrant to get someone's location data," Wyden said. "Now the government is using its checkbook to try to get around Carpenter. Americans won't stand for that kind of loophole when it comes to our Fourth Amendment rights." Babel Street has kept Locate X a secret, not mentioning it in public-facing marketing materials and stipulating in federal contracts that even the existence of the data is "confidential information." Locate X must be "used for internal research purposes only," according to terms of use distributed to agencies, and law enforcement authorities are forbidden from using the technology as evidence — or mentioning it at all — in legal proceedings. Federal records show that U.S. Customs and Border Protection purchased Locate X, and the Secret Service and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement also use the location-tracking technology, according to a former Babel Street employee. Numerous other government agencies have active contracts with Reston-based Babel Street, records show, but publicly available contract information does not specify whether other agencies besides CBP bought Locate X or other products and services offered by the company. None of the federal agencies, including CBP, would confirm whether they used the location-tracking software when contacted by Protocol. Babel Street's other products include an analytics tool it has widely marketed that sifts through streams of social media to "chart sentiment" about topics and brands. A former government official familiar with Locate X provided an example of how it could be used, referring to the aftermath of a car bombing or kidnapping. Investigators could draw what is known as a geo-fence around the site, identify mobile devices that were in the vicinity in the days before the attack, and see where else those devices had traveled in the days, weeks or months leading up to the attack, or where they traveled afterward. "If you see a device that a month ago was in Saudi Arabia, then you know maybe Saudis were involved," this person said. "It's a lead generator. You get a data point, and from there you use your other resources to figure out if it's valid." A former Babel Street employee said the technology was deployed in a crackdown on credit card skimming, in which thieves install illegal card readers on gas station pumps, capturing customers' card data to use or sell online. The Secret Service was the lead agency in those investigations, which, according to published reports, led to arrests and the seizure of devices. A spokesperson for the Secret Service declined to comment on its work with Babel Street, saying the agency does not reveal methods used to carry out missions. While federal records show that CBP purchased Locate X and last year upgraded, paying for "premium" licenses, the records neither describe what Locate X does nor define the difference between a basic and premium license. A CBP spokesperson would not comment in detail about the use of the tool, but said the agency follows the law when deploying "open-source information." READ MORE
