Not much time today, but there ARE some interesting things going on out there! Let’s jump in!

First, the good news! Denmark has lifted all covid restrictions.

This means that an indoor mask mandate, the use of a "Covid pass" for bars, restaurants and other indoor venues, and the legal obligation to self-isolate if you test positive are all ending.

"No one can know what will happen next December. But we promised the citizens of Denmark that we will only have restrictions if they are truly necessary and we'll lift them as soon as we can," Danish Health Minister Magnus Heunicke told CNN on Monday. "That's what's happening right now."

Sounds like somebody in Denmark has heard of seasonality.

Facebook removed a group set up for US truckers to coordinate their protest:

The U.S. group’s Facebook page, however, was removed early Wednesday in a move that the organizer called "censorship at its finest."

Jeremy Johnson, who set up the Facebook group, said his personal account was also removed, prompting him to contact a civil rights attorney to discuss the next steps.

A spokesperson for Facebook’s parent company, Meta, provided this statement to Fox News: "We have removed this group for repeatedly violating our policies around QAnon." In October 2020, Facebook labeled QAnon a "violence-inducing conspiracy network" and announced group pages and admins tied to QAnon will be removed.

Although not explicitly stated, it’s nearly certain that government is ‘asking’ for this behind the scenes.

Speaking of truckers, GoFundMe has (again) frozen access to the funds raised for the protest (over $10 million!)

Funds were frozen by GoFundMe the first time in mid-January when the funds were at $4.5 million. At the time, GoFundMe stated that they needed more detail on how funds would be allocated. Last Thursday, an initial $1 million was released to the organizers by GoFundMe after they received a plan for the money’s distribution to truckers to cover the cost of gas for the Parliament Hill protest.

By Tuesday, as it reached $9.5 million, the fundraiser had been declared the second-largest in Canada, smaller only than the fundraiser created for the Humboldt Broncos in 2018.

Pfizer requests emergency authorization for COVID vaccines for young children. You really have to see this to believe it. But (for once) let’s hear it for the YouTube comment section!

And finally, Nancy Pelosi claims that because Congress exempts itself from the Freedom of Information Act, videos pertaining to January 6th will remain secret. A far cry from “If you’ve got nothing to hide…..”

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to spend the rest of the day surveying my domain.
