COVID Tyranny: Federal Judge Rules 'Public Safety' Overrides Personal Medical Autonomy.  A federal judge seated in Montana, The Honorable Donald W. Molloy, recently ruled that "public safety" trumps individual autonomy over what gets injected into your body.  [Video clip]  The vague, undefined "hardships" that Judge Molloy references presumably include heart inflammation (myocarditis) (previously derided as "conspiracy theory" in corporate media), neurological conditions such as Guillain-BarrĂ© syndrome (GBS), and other serious health consequences.  [Tweet]  This judge's ruling is tantamount to medical terrorism for the sake of social engineering and Big Pharma profiteering — literally the most morally repugnant function that a government could serve.  The absurdity and immorality of Judge Molloy's ruling are compounded by the fact that, despite the Public Health lie in the early days of the rollout that the jab stops transmission, we know now that it does not.  In fact, Pfizer never even tested whether their shots stop transmission before introducing them to market.  [Video clip]

Possibly the most important study on COVID shots might explain why COVID never seems to end.  Amid thousands of papers on COVID and the vaccines, a new German paper published in Science Immunology should be the headline story this week.  Although the subject matter is very dense, the implication of it is that the Pfizer shots (and possibly other mRNA spike protein shots) caused the immune system to misfire, thereby creating an endless feedback loop of viral immune escape, perpetuating the pandemic in the macro, and creating immune suppression for the individuals who received them.  The vexing question of 2022 is why the virus is even still with us to this day.  Why is it that so many countries in the Pacific Rim that did so well in 2020 and 2021 now have a bigger problem in 2022 with less virulent strains of COVID?  Why does it appear the pandemic will never end and so many people continue to get the virus multiple times?  None of this is normal.  Wherever you turn, the most vaccinated countries are not only experiencing rampant side effects from the shots, but worse outcomes from COVID itself following their endless booster campaigns.

Year in Review: California Got Even Crazier in 2022.  California Democrats love to say their state's laws lead the way.  But where, exactly, are they leading us?  Here are some guideposts.  [#6] Assembly Bill 2098: Policing Doctors' Speech:  [Governor] Newsom in September signed Assemblyman Evan Low's (D.) bill into law, giving the California Medical Board the power to punish and disbar doctors who disseminate what the state deems "misinformation."  The bill is specifically designed to stop doctors from spreading "misinformation" pertaining to COVID, like the idea that paper masks don't stop transmission or that school closures do more harm than good.  Lawsuits to block the bill are underway.

Why Free Speech Is Important.  We have just lived through a respiratory virus epidemic and many are wondering, Why did our government and the social media platforms block any intelligent discussion of the virus that was making its way around the globe?  In an ideal world, doctors would communicate freely about treatments for a new disease that they have tried, and how, and under what circumstances, those treatments have succeeded or failed.  This is called the scientific method.  But the scientific method has not prevailed over the last few years.  Instead, the public square has been dominated by government-dictated dogma that often turned out to be wrong.  The result was that many people died needlessly, while a far larger number — young people, for the most part — had their lives blighted by irrational government action.

Fauci Claimed He Had 'No Involvement' In Redacting Sensitive Emails, But Legal Filings Tell A Different Story.  Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared to contradict his own agency during a Nov. 23 deposition by claiming that he is not involved in the redaction of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, a transcript of the record revealed on Monday.  The seven-hour deposition was led by Republican Attorney General (AG) Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Republican Attorney General Jeff Landry of Louisiana to uncover Fauci's role in aiding social media censorship in 2020.  When asked about his role in responding to various FOIA requests about his emails from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), of which he is the director, and the National Institute of Health, Fauci responded that he was not immediately involved; however, the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) previously claimed otherwise.

Radio DJ Who Promoted Covid Jab Dies Suddenly from Rare Heart Condition.  Radio host and former NFL player Demetrious Johnson, who vociferously promoted the Covid-19 vaccine, died on Christmas Eve from a rare heart condition.  Johnson, 61, broadcast on St.  Louis radio station Hot 104.1, with reports saying his "sudden passing" was due to an aortic dissection.  The Mayo Clinic describes an aortic dissection as "a serious condition in which a tear occurs in the inner layer of the body's main artery (aorta)."  The experimental Covid-19 vaccines have been associated with causing rare heart issues.  Numerous case studies have also linked aortic dissection to the Covid-19 jab.

Guess What the Tylenol Shortage and the Fentanyl Surplus Have in Common.  One reason for the shortages is a spike in demand caused by the annual flu season, COVID-19, and unusually high RSV and strep infections in kids who didn't get a chance to develop natural immunity during the lockdowns and mask mandates.  Another culprit is Communist China, which dominates international pharmaceutical production, particularly for popular, low-cost generic meds.  While Tylenol is made in the U.S., most of its ingredients are sourced from Chinese pharmaceutical companies.  Now that CCP strongman Xi Jinping has given up his disastrous Zero-COVID policy that caused severe economic disruptions, maybe production in China will get back to normal.  Or maybe not anytime soon, since the unprepared population is getting infected by the millions each day.  Other drugs remain plentiful.

Nuremberg II: What a Real Inquiry into the Response to Covid Would Look Like.  In the aftermath of the world's catastrophic response to Covid-19, some governments have begun conducting inquiries into what went wrong.  Yet owing to a combination of politics, face-saving, and outright corruption, these inquiries have generally been toothless. [...] The response to Covid led to the sharpest economic collapse since the Great Depression, global famine, a mental health crisis, runaway inflation, a transfer of over $3 trillion from the world's poorest to the very richest, the premature deaths of hundreds of thousands of young people, and the worst education crisis since the Second World War. [...] Though many in positions of power would prefer that we forgot, the strict lockdowns that consumed the world in 2020 are extremely well documented.  Above all, these lockdowns were a chilling demonstration of just how quickly western officials, policymakers, scientists, journalists, and soon entire populations could be convinced to adopt a degree of totalitarianism in their everyday lives.  Until we have real answers as to how exactly they happened, and why, there's no reason for any thinking citizen to have confidence in the current crop of officials who claim to represent them.

Warning from Ed Dowd: 7,500 Americans are killed or disabled each day as vax jabs take heavy toll.  Ed Dowd, author of Cause Unknown joined me for an interview last night to share updated — and slightly horrifying — numbers about post-vaccine excess fatalities and excess disability claims.  The short version of that conversation is that each day in America, there are about 2,500 excess deaths and 5,000 excess disability victims due to covid-19 vaccines.  This means, on average, about 7,500 Americans are removed from the potential labor pool each day.  Granted, not all 7,500 are currently working, but most of them theoretically could contribute to the work force if they chose to.  Our conversation goes way beyond the mere numbers, however.  We look at the macroeconomic implications of this daily removal of 7,500 people from the potential labor pool and what it means for America's economy and military security, among other things.

'Pfizer and Moderna better get this clarified': Study finds worse antibodies after mRNA boosters.  A new peer-reviewed study is raising concerns that a third dose of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines may actually worsen immune response against COVID-19, creating waves in both mainstream and heterodox COVID circles.  Published in Science Immunology last week, the study by German researchers found that mRNA boosting induced a high level of so-called IgG4 antibodies, a subclass known for prompting a mild immune response, in two cohorts of several dozen healthcare workers.  The "shift" to this IgG subclass was "not seen with adenovirus vector vaccines" in the study, Scripps Research Translational Institute Director Eric Topol, who was not involved in the research, tweeted while cautioning that "clinical significance is not known."

Maybe that's the idea.  If Covid is a bio-weapon, what better time could there be to spread it around?
Expert Warns China's Border Reopening Amid COVID Surge May Trigger Global Pandemic Resurgence.  A health expert has sharply criticized the Chinese regime's lifting of international travel restrictions in the midst of a massive COVID wave sweeping through the country, saying the move is "extremely irresponsible" and could cause a global resurgence of the pandemic.  The National Health Commission announced on Dec. 26 that the country would end all quarantine requirements for inbound travelers [beginning on] Jan. 8, 2023.  Travelers will need to obtain a negative PCR test within 48 hours of departure, it said.  Currently, travelers entering China need to undergo five days of mandatory quarantine in an approved facility, followed by three days at home.  The health body added that outbound tourism, which plummeted to almost nothing during the pandemic, will resume in an "orderly" fashion.  It also removed the cap on the number of international flights to and from China.

Yep, it sure looks like they're intentionally spreading it.
Chinese Travelers Land in Italy, Half Test Positive for Coronavirus.  Italy's decision to take extra precautions with Chinese travelers paid off on Wednesday as two flights from China landed in Milan and half of the passengers tested positive for Covid-19.  Italy was one of four countries that announced they would impose coronavirus restrictions on Chinese travelers because a massive wave of coronavirus infections is ripping across China, racking up millions of cases in a single day — but the tyrannical Chinese government decided to abandon almost all of its disease control protocols with almost no preparation for the consequences, loosen up travel restrictions, and begin handing out passports just in time for the Lunar New Year holiday.

The failure of the mRNA shots is on display for all with open eyes.  "Based on the RCTs with the longest possible follow-up, mRNA vaccines had no effect on overall mortality despite protecting against fatal COVID-19."  This bizarre, yet revealing conclusion of a recent preprint Danish study in the prestigious Lancet should be international news, yet only a few Americans are aware of it.  A first-of-its-kind long-term follow-up of over 74,000 adult participants in the Moderna and Pfizer trials found absolutely no all-cause mortality benefit from the two mRNA shots, despite the pandemic of a lifetime.  As of Jan. 2022, there were a total of 31 all-cause deaths among those in either the Pfizer or Moderna trial groups and 30 in the placebo groups.  A study of Curevac, a third mRNA vaccine created by a German biopharmaceutical company, recorded eight deaths in the trial group and six in the placebo.  Now, consider the fact that people are being denied treatment, kidney transplants, entry into mental health facilities, and the ability to earn a livelihood for not getting the shots.

Do mRNA Vaccines Have A Polyethylene Glycol Problem?  Injections designed to protect against SARS-CoV-2 that contain polyethylene glycol (PEG) cause some people to develop PEG-specific antibodies, according to a peer-reviewed article "Anti-PEG Antibodies Boosted in Humans by SARS-CoV-2 Lipid Nanoparticle mRNA Vaccine" published in June 2022 on ACS Publications by a team of Australian scientists.  The first author of the article, along with experts from Ireland and the United States, have just followed up their research with a commentary published on December 20, 2022 in the journal Nature Reviews Immunology.  Their commentary, "Impact of anti-PEG antibodies induced by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines," reinforces the message that antibodies against PEG may be causing health problems.  As the authors insist:  "larger and longer studies are needed to analyze the longer-term impact of boosting anti-PEG antibodies by LNP mRNA vaccination."

Pfizer's Shots Aren't Safe and Were Never Shown To Be.  Contrary to the official narrative (and hence popular belief), the COVID shots have no demonstrated safety.  In Episode 298 of The Highwire, Del Bigtree interviews attorney Aaron Siri about the various lawsuits his firm has brought to reverse COVID jab mandates.  Siri describes a recent deposition of Dr. Kathryn Edwards, a world-leading vaccinologist who sat on Pfizer's data safety monitoring board (DSMB).  This five-member committee oversaw the safety of Pfizer's jab.  A DSMB is supposed to be an independent group of experts, whose responsibility it is to monitor patient safety and treatment efficacy data while a clinical trial is ongoing.  As noted by Siri in the deposition, since the DSMB is supposed to be independent, it's crucially important that all the members of that board have no potential conflicts of interest and are in fact truly independent of the drug company whose product they're evaluating.  In the case of Edwards, she was a paid adviser to Pfizer before she was hired (by Pfizer) to be on the DSMB for their COVID jab.

#Twitterfiles Vindicate Dr. Andrew Bostom — Wrongly Suspended For Accurate But Politically Inconvenient Science On Covid.  You may remember Andrew Bostom, a Rhode Island physician and researcher with in impressive CV who was suspended on Twitter after tweeting a link to a peer-reviewed article from a reputable science journal about possible negative effects on sperm from the Covid-19 vaccine.

$10 Million Settlement Approved For Healthcare Workers Who Were Punished For Refusing Vaccines.  Liberty Counsel, a nonprofit religious freedom organization, landed a massive win this past Summer against Chicago-based NorthShore University Health System.  Employees sued the company over denied vaccine exemptions.  Vaccine mandates were instituted by the Hospital group that left no room for employees' religious convictions.  On Friday, U.S. District Judge John Kness approved the $10 million dollar settlement terms.

Big Pharma showing signs of collapse as critical mass of population no longer trusts vaccine scam.  As tragic as it all was and continues to be, the covid "vaccination" farce has led a lot of former vaccine proponents to second guess the medical intervention.  Suddenly it is no longer fringe to question the safety and effectiveness of any vaccine, seeing as how they are the only product in existence where manufacturers cannot be held liable for injury or death.  If drug injections are really as amazing as the vaccine industry claims, then why are manufacturers afforded this special liability protection?  Clearly, Big Pharma is not as confident in its safe and effective claim as its members want all of us to be.  The growing mountain of evidence showing that covid shots are flat-out killing people has many now asking the question: are other vaccines doing the same thing?

MHRA is lying when it claims the harms from Covid injections are "not serious".  In its weekly summary of the Yellow Card reports it receives of the adverse drug reactions ("ADRs") suffered by the British public following injection with the Covid-19 "vaccines" it has authorised, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") continues to insist that the "overwhelming majority" are:  ["]Injection-site reactions (sore arm for example) and generalised symptoms such as a "flu-like" illness, headache, chills, fatigue (tiredness), nausea (feeling sick), fever, dizziness, weakness, aching muscles, and rapid heartbeat.["]  In doing so, the MHRA — and, by extension, the UK Prime Minister, the Department for Health and Social Care, the UK Health Security Agency, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation, the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies, the National Health Service and the pharmaceutical companies that have been testing this experimental biotechnology on the British public for the past two years — can all dismiss the growing fears and anger about the UK "vaccination" programme as the fearmongering of "conspiracy theorists."

World governments using COVID-19 tech to expand global surveillance.  What he didn't know was that the feared internal security agency, the Shin Bet, was using mass surveillance technology mobilized for coronavirus contact tracing, against Israeli residents and citizens for purposes entirely unrelated to COVID-19.  In the pandemic's bewildering early days, millions worldwide believed government officials who said they needed confidential data for new tech tools that could help stop coronavirus' spread.  In return, governments got a firehose of individuals' private health details, photographs that captured their facial measurements and their home addresses.  Now, from Beijing to Jerusalem to Hyderabad, India, and Perth, Australia, The Associated Press has found that authorities used these technologies and data to halt travel for activists and ordinary people, harass marginalized communities and link people's health information to other surveillance and law enforcement tools.  In some cases, data was shared with spy agencies.

Ivermectin Is Safe and Effective: The Evidence.  Ivermectin is on the World Health Organization (WHO) List of Essential Medicines and is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  This well-tolerated but potent anti-parasitic medicine has been prescribed billions of times in its 36-year history against a wide range of parasites.  It is a drug in the avermectin family, so named because those compounds are produced by the soil organism Streptomyces avermitilis.  It has also been studied and used against a wide range of viruses especially over the last decade, and there is evidence of potent antiviral effects against Influenza A and over a dozen other viruses tested.  In a meta-analysis of 63 studies of ivermectin versus COVID-19 in humans, 100% of these have shown positive results.

2 foot long "clot" pulled from a living person is the new normal if you are vaccinated.  These odd rubbery clots are now happening on a regular basis in not only the dead, but the living too.  For some reason, they are only affecting vaccinated people.  Weird huh?  I talked to a nurse with 23 years of experience and she never heard about clots longer than a few inches in her career until the vax came along.  Now, we are seeing blood clots in kids as young as 8 [to] 12 years old, but only if they've been vaccinated.

The sudden decline in birth rates post-vaccination, and the shocking silence.  In 2010, Bill Gates famously articulated a four-part equation to reducing the world's carbon output.  Seemingly bizarrely, his first component was reducing the population — through vaccination.  "The world today has 6.8 billion people.  That's headed up to about nine billion," bemoaned Gates in his now infamous TED Talk.  "Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10% or 15%."  Until recently, I thought this must have been a gaffe.  After all, how could vaccines reduce the world's population?  Well, enter the COVID jabs — if you even want to call them vaccines — and we might have our answer.  Questions about fertility issues, stillbirths, and neonatal deaths began to be raised last winter when Scotland experienced a month of higher infant mortality than at any time over the past three decades.  Then in the spring of 2022, roughly nine months after most young adults were jabbed with the COVID shots, COVID data analysists began noticing unusual drops in birth rates.

Dr Kulldorff [is] 'Not Surprised' About Being Censored by Twitter.  Martin Kulldorff, a prominent epidemiologist, biostatistician, and former Harvard School of Medicine professor, said he was "not surprised" after seeing concrete evidence that a post he shared on Twitter was flagged and prevented from wider dissemination.  He expressed disapproval and said that the social media giant's overall censorship actions have stifled free debate on COVID-19 topics and undermined trust in science.  In the latest installment of the Elon Musk-endorsed "Twitter Files" published early on Dec. 26, journalist David Zweig shared how posts from Kulldorff and several others about COVID-19, including about vaccines, were flagged and censored in various ways by Twitter.

Twitter File Release #11: The Government Censorship Campaign to Control COVID-19 Information.  Twitter File release #11 hits on the long-anticipated information surrounding how the platform was instructed by various government agencies to remove content adverse to the expressed opinion of CDC, HHS, and DHS officials.  The first installment of the Twitter COVID-19 files comes from David Zweig, a writer for New York Mag, New York Times, The Atlantic and other publications.  Because the U.S. Government COVID-19 information control operation was so extensive, there will likely be several Twitter File releases related to the SARS-CoV2 pandemic issue.  However, in this first release Zweig starts to build the story of how the CDC and HHS set the foundation for the echo-chamber that ended with Twitter executives running amok.

How Twitter Rigged the Covid Debate.  I had always thought a primary job of the press was to be skeptical of power — especially the power of the government.  But during the Covid-19 pandemic, I and so many others found that the legacy media had shown itself to largely operate as a messaging platform for our public health institutions.  Those institutions operated in near total lockstep, in part by purging internal dissidents and discrediting outside experts.  Twitter became an essential alternative.  It was a place where those with public health expertise and perspectives at odds with official policy could air their views, and where curious citizens could find such information.  This often included other countries' responses to Covid that differed dramatically from our own.  But it quickly became clear that Twitter also seemed to promote content that reinforced the establishment narrative, and to suppress views and even scientific evidence that ran to the contrary.

The Twitter Files: How Twitter Rigged the Covid Debate.  [Thread reader]  So far the Twitter Files have focused on evidence of Twitter's secret blacklists; how the company functioned as a kind of subsidiary of the FBI; and how execs rewrote the platform's rules to accommodate their own political desires.  What we have yet to cover is Covid.  This reporting, for The Free Press, @thefp, is one piece of that important story.  The United States government pressured Twitter and other social media platforms to elevate certain content and suppress other content about Covid-19.  Internal files at Twitter that I viewed while on assignment for @thefp showed that both the Trump and Biden administrations directly pressed Twitter executives to moderate the platform's pandemic content according to their wishes.  At the onset of the pandemic, according to meeting notes, the Trump admin was especially concerned about panic buying.  They came looking for "help from the tech companies to combat misinformation" about "runs on grocery stores."  But ... there were runs on grocery stores.  It wasn't just Twitter.  The meetings with the Trump White House were also attended by Google, Facebook, Microsoft and others.  When the Biden admin took over, one of their first meeting requests with Twitter executives was on Covid.  The focus was on "anti-vaxxer accounts."  Especially Alex Berenson.

New Twitter Files Reveal Troubling Effort to Censor Trump for Encouraging American People About COVID.  There was another Twitter files drop on Monday with a concentration on the suppression of information in regard to COVID including going after anyone who varied from the narrative, even if they were medical professionals with some standing.  Among the surprising messages that were released was a message from Twitter deputy counsel James Baker to Twitter Trust and Saftey head Yoel Roth going after a tweet of President Donald Trump.  Baker, of course, figured prominently in the story that the Democrats were trying to push smearing President Donald Trump with Russia collusion when Baker was the FBI general counsel.  He was the guy to whom Michael Sussmann passed the false allegations about the Alfa Bank that smeared Trump.  More recently, Baker was fired from his Twitter job after he allegedly viewed the Twitter files without the permission of management.  Twitter head Elon Musk even indicated that some of the files might have been deleted.

'Media blackout': Executive producer at ABC News dies suddenly at age 37.  The sudden, unexpected death of the executive producer for ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos" at age 37 over the weekend has some sounding the alarm about the dangers of COVID vaccines, even though it has not been determined if a shot played a role.  Dax Tejera "died suddenly" Friday, ABC's Rachel Scott reported on the air Saturday.  The cause of death was reportedly a "heart attack." [...] This latest case of young person who died suddenly is once again raising awareness of the possible part a COVID vaccine may have played in Tejara's death.

The latest Twitter Files focus on COVID "misinformation".  The latest installment of Twitter Files dropped today as a slightly late Christmas present from independent journalist David Zweig.  This batch may wind up being the best yet in terms of demonstrating the Biden administration's direct and deliberate intervention in the social media platform's "content moderation" activities and the censorship of speech, particularly when it comes to the COVID-19 pandemic. [...] After Joe Biden was sworn in, the first White House meeting with Twitter focused on COVID-19 "misinformation."  They immediately put pressure on Twitter to deplatform Alex Berenson, a frequent critic of the administration's policies and CDC "science."  Biden specifically called Berenson out in public, saying that social media was "killing people" by allowing Berenson to speak.  He was suspended within hours and his account was deleted the following month.

It Was Always About Control.  Early on in March 2020 I was leery of the hysteria surrounding Covid and decided my course of action was to wait and see.  At the time I was under the impression that I was a freeborn citizen with a number of unalienable rights, including sovereignty over my bodily choices.  So when the talk started about new vaccines being imminent, I again decided I would wait and see whether the vaccines were all they were cracked up to be.  This was then, and is now, an entirely reasonable position to take, screeching from media and Twitter hounds notwithstanding.  I didn't expect it would turn out to be more like "wait and see how totally out of hand this will get."
  •   Wait and see how the government will forcibly close businesses
  •   Wait and see how treatments will be suppressed
  •   Wait and see how hysteria captured the media
  •   Wait and see how healthy populations will be subject to house arrest
  •   Wait and see how police will shoot protesters
  •   Wait and see how a pregnant mother will be arrested for a Facebook post
  •   Wait and see how medical services across state borders will be denied
  •   Wait and see how 'wait and see-ers' will be demonized
  •   Wait and see how family and friends will betray their loved ones
Well, I've waited long enough and I've seen more than enough.  Thankfully the worst, most violent excesses have abated for now, if you exclude the ongoing carnage of short and long-term vaccine injury. [...] How is it that our police forces humiliated themselves to the point where they were taping off children's playgrounds and fining elderly women for sitting on a park bench?  We long ago gave up on the idea that the mainstream media would hold authorities to account.  In the end, the explanations, whether we get them or not, whether they make sense or not, are beside the point.  Nothing can change what happened.

Beware of the Dangers Involving Childhood Vaccines.  Biotech Analyst Karen Kingston is urging parents to be cautious when following the childhood immunization schedule.  Mainly because vaccine manufacturers may be changing their traditional vaccines to MRNA.  (Personally, a friend sent the video to me, and every time I try to watch it on my phone, my phone shuts off!  Shuts off?!?  I've never seen that happen before.  And it happens every time I try to watch the video.  I watch the video for about 30 Seconds, then my phone shuts off.  It is about an 8 minute video)  And others online are experiencing similar problems with the video — not being able to send it, it being blocked, etc.

17 Year Old Top Athlete Is Now A Cripple Thanks To The COVID Vaccine.  A 17-year-old German girl, Selin Islami, has contracted a rare autoimmune disease after taking her second shot of mRNA COVID jab.  Selin was a top gymnast but now needs constant care and rehabilitation as the disease has made her unable to even walk.  She has been in this condition for the past year.  [Video clip]

Don't Buy What Democrats Are Selling as Reality.  Under their new pseudo-reality, the Democrats would have us believe that authoritarian government controls and mandates during COVID were acceptable measures and that further government lockdowns, school closures, mandates, and business restrictions should continue to be allowed without question.  Really?  Under their new pseudo-reality, the Democrats would have us believe that the COVID vaccine program, which used an experimental and non-fully tested drug, which turned out not to protect recipients from either getting or transmitting the COVID disease, was perfectly normal and non-problematic.  Note that the definition of "vaccine" had to be changed to suit this new Democrat reality.  Under their new pseudo-reality, the Democrats would have us believe that everyone should continue to receive COVID vaccine boosters.  This in the face of mounting evidence that current COVID vaccines are neither safe nor effective.  The current mRNA vaccines have, in fact, been deadly to thousands of people.  To many other individuals, the COVID vaccines are the cause of debilitating conditions that adversely affect circulatory, neurologic, reproductive, musculoskeletal, and immune body systems.  Cover-ups need to stop, boosters-for-all need to cease, and responsible people and entities need to be held accountable.

People dying equals Coronavirus?  [Interesting article, but no brief excerpt represents it well.  Read it for yourself.]

Beijing Human Rights Activist Immobilized by COVID-19 App.  Wang Yu, hailed by the United States as an International Woman of Courage, has already been arrested, imprisoned, and harassed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for her work as a human rights lawyer representing activists, Uyghur scholars, and Falun Gong practitioners.  This year, her movements within her home country also have been restricted by a color-coded app on her phone that's supposed to protect people from COVID-19.  The health codes have become ubiquitous in China as the country has struggled to contain the novel coronavirus, pushing the public to a breaking point that erupted in protests late last month.  The CCP announced last week it would discontinue the national health code, but cities and provinces have their own versions, which have been more dominant.  In Beijing last week, restaurants, offices, hotels, and gyms were still requiring local codes to enter.  Even after lockdowns end, some dissidents and activists predict the health codes will remain in place in some form.

Vaxicarditis, Vaccidents, and Vaccimentia all to Increase thanks to Wuhan spike protein "boosters" and toxic seasonal flu shots.  Clots are clumps that occur when a liquid hardens or coagulates into a solid.  The mRNA Covid vaccines give instructions to human cells to create millions, if not billions, of microscopic spike proteins or 'prions' that are now realized by scientists to have the ability to attract heavy metals and coagulate or clot in the vascular system.  Most people think of blood clots when they hear the word "clot," but coroners and embalmers are finding strange, white, rubbery clots in Covid-vaccinated bodies, and these fibrous clots are just as deadly, if not more so, than blood clots.  These vaccine-induced clots are driving massive inflammation in the body, collecting in cleansing organs, invading ovaries, and even spreading into the heart and brain.  What happens when a few billion sheeple start getting Covid boosters loaded with more spike proteins, and influenza "flu" shots, some of which contain mercury (listed as thimerosal on multi-dose jabs)?

Take This Potentially Deadly Vaccine, Or We Will Deny You Lifesaving Care.  Who would have ever thought that, in the United States of America, a sick child would be denied lifesaving medical treatment solely because she wasn't vaccinated against COVID-19? Yulia is the adopted daughter of two military veterans, Chrissy and Lee Hicks.  Duke University Hospital is cruelly denying her a kidney transplant because she is unvaxxed.  This is happening despite our knowing so much more about COVID treatments, including how mask mandates and social distancing did little to stop the spread.  CDC Director Rochelle Walensky went on CNN in January to say that vaccination is no longer effective in stopping the spread of disease.  In fact, the vaccine never was.  There is good reason to be skeptical of vaccination, particularly for those with underlying renal and cardiac conditions.

The more jabs you have had the more likely you are to get the virus.  Results.  Among 51011 employees, 20689 (41%) had had a previous documented episode of COVID-19, and 42064 (83%) had received at least two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.  COVID-19 occurred in 2452 (5%) during the study.  Risk of COVID-19 increased with time since the most recent prior COVID-19 episode and with the number of vaccine doses previously received.  The former (time since infection) makes sense.  The latter is extraordinarily suggestive of ADE, horribly bad and ought to be sufficient to stop all jabs entirely since the latest "bivalent" one is the closest match to what's currently circulating and not only doesn't work, it works in reverse.

The Storm is Over.  Regarding the pandemic, I feel like one does after a dangerous storm passes through your town. [...] In a metaphorical way, this is where we are in the aftermath of COVID.  The panic and hype concerning the virus have slowly waned as people come out of their homes to survey the aftermath.  Business have closed, jobs have been lost.  There has been significant psychological damage, with some people experiencing residual anxiety about not just COVID, but now influenza and RSV, which have recently become prevalent.  The prospect of masking during the winter respiratory virus season has been floated by health officials[,] and I'm once again seeing more faces hidden behind cloth.  Another measure of "COVID Concern" is the number of boosters obtained by those most obsessed.  I've encountered people that have undergone six separate injections and will be happy to have more.  They are generally not receptive to alternative information.  A new "bivalent vaccine is being offered to the public.  This vaccine was hurriedly approved, essentially without any testing.  It injects you with two types of mRNA. [...] Can we finally admit that the vaccine has failed?  It certainly appears that those who have been preaching the futility of a vaccine strategy for a rapidly mutating coronavirus have been right all along.

DeSantis' COVID Vaccine Grand Jury Gets the Green Light From the Florida Supreme Court.  On Thursday, the Florida Supreme Court gave the go-ahead to a request by Gov. Ron DeSantis to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate potential wrongdoings related to COVID-19 vaccines.  The Tampa Bay Times reported that Hillsborough County Circuit Judge Ronald Ficarrotta will preside, with members to be selected from five judicial districts.  DeSantis made the initial request on the 13th of this month, stating at the time that "there are good and sufficient reasons to deem it to be in the public interest to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate criminal or wrongful activity in Florida relating to the development, promotion, and distribution of vaccines purported to prevent COVID-19 infection, symptoms, and transmission."

WHO calls vaccine skeptics a "major killing force".  The WHO doesn't mess around.  At least when it comes to spreading propaganda.  I will assume for the sake of civility that the WHO genuinely believes that the COVID vaccine is safe and effective.  I will even assume that for most people the vaccine is safe, and at least somewhat effective in reducing the likelihood of severe disease in people likely to become deadly ill from COVID, such as the very old and very sick.  But I will not concede that critics of the vaccine are spreading misinformation nor stoking unreasonable fears.  Quite a few sober scientists and even the health officials of many OECD countries have expressed real and reasonable skepticism that the risk profile for the vaccine doesn't make vast swathes of the population bad candidates for getting the jab.  Many countries are not even offering the vaccine to most of their population because the risk isn't worth the reward.  The WHO has decided to label all these people a "major killing force" in the world and anti-science.

New COVID documentary tells the stories of New Zealanders injured by the vaccine.  An organization called SilentNoMore New Zealand has released a documentary showing numerous vaccine-injured New Zealanders who took the COVID jab in order to function in the highly restrictive environment of their country.  Memorial Day shows how the lives of ordinary residents of the island country have been turned upside down by long-term injuries from a COVID jab or by the loss of loved ones to the experimental inoculation.

Pathologist Proves COVID Shot Causes Blood Clots in Groundbreaking Microscope Video.  "[Dr. Cole has] never seen anything instantly coagulate blood and make the cells clump in on each other into protein blocks, but that's what the studies actually show it does," said Alex Jones on Thursday's broadcast.  "What did the rat & mice studies show?  Annihilation of the heart tissue, arteries & veins, starting with the smaller capillaries."  [Video clip]

Requests For Unvaccinated Blood For Transfusions Increase.  Since reports of serious blood clots began circulating following Covid-19 vaccines, a growing number of people have expressed concern over receiving blood transfusions from those who have received Covid-19 shots.  Earlier this month, Will Savage-Reeves, a 4-month-old boy in New Zealand, was in need of heart surgery to repair pulmonary valve stenosis.  His parents Samantha and Cole requested that the hospital use blood from donors who have not received a Covid vaccine.  While this request very well could have been granted by the hospital, it was refused to make an example out of them and show the public that they will not allow patients to make special requests regarding the vaccination status of their blood donor.

Judge Approves $10 Million Settlement for Health Care Workers Fired Over COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate.  A U.S. judge approved a multimillion-dollar settlement on Dec. 19 for workers who were fired by an Illinois health care system for refusing to get a COVID-19 vaccine.  About 500 workers who were terminated or, after seeing their exemption requests denied, got a COVID-19 vaccine, will receive compensation as part of the $10.3 million settlement, a preliminary version of which was first announced in July.  U.S. District Judge John Kness, a Trump appointee overseeing the lawsuit brought by the workers, issued verbal approval for the settlement during a hearing, lawyers for Liberty Counsel and NorthShore University Healthsystem said.  Kness plans to release a written judgment in the next week.

Many People Fully Vaxxed Against COVID-19 Are Now Going BLIND.  People fully vaccinated against the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) are now becoming blind.  The latest data out of the United Kingdom's Yellow Card system, the counterpart of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in the U.S., showed a rising number of fully vaccinated people losing their eyesight.  A total of 163 people reported total blindness after injection with the Pfizer mRNA vaccine, alongside six cases of central vision loss and four cases of sudden visual loss.  Meanwhile, 21 people reported "transient blindness" — visual disturbance or loss of sight in one eye for a few seconds or even minutes at one time — after their vaccination.  "In total, there have been 8,016 eye disorders reported as adverse reactions to the Pfizer jab as of April 6, 2022," the Daily Expose said in a report.

The Wuhan panic underlines how scientists have abandoned the search for truth.  For almost three years I have been documenting endlessly the utter failure of almost every policy imposed by politicians and government health officials in response to the COVID epidemic.  From masks to social distancing to lockdowns to COVID shot mandates, none of their draconian rules have done anything to stop the spread of the Wuhan flu, which was always impossible anyway.  Even worse than these bad policies however has been the behavior of the scientific community the past three years.  This community has increasingly put politics and narrative above the search for truth, a focus that signals a terrible cultural change that is so horrible its consequences can barely be measured.  To understand this tragedy we must first go back to what science and government once believed about epidemics.  The traditional infectious disease policies that doctors and governments had successfully used for more than a century, based on real research and an honest appraisal of the facts by scientists, always recognized that it was impossible to "stop the spread" of a respiratory illness.  What worked best was to protect the aged and sick, whom such diseases could kill, while allowing the virus to quickly spread through the rest of the healthy population in order to quickly create a herd immunity that would choke off the virus's early most virulent strains.  The disease would then mutate to milder forms — essentially a cold — that the aged and weak could fight off.

This stuff is the exact opposite of a vaccine:
MRNA Vaccines Increase Risk of Contracting COVID-19; Each Booster Shot Raises Risk Even More in Study of 51,000 Cleveland Clinic Workers.  A stunning pre-print study by the Cleveland Clinic published Monday at medRxiv shows that MRNA vaccines raise the risk of contracting COVID-19 and that each MRNA vaccine booster increases the risk of contracting COVID-19, while those who have not received any MRNA vaccine have the lowest risk of contracting COVID-19.  While the increased risk was relatively minimal, the result is the opposite of how the vaccines have been sold and mandated by government authorities.  The highest risk was for those who received more than three vaccines.

Boldly on once forbidden ground, WaPo declares exercise *gasp* "protects against COVID".  What was once "conspiracy theory" now has official establishment blessing. [...] People were literally banned from Twitter for suggesting that The Science of isolation being rammed down everyone's throat was wrong.  That these conspiracy theories were going to kill even more people and had to be ruthlessly crushed immediately.  It all gave rise to contagion freaks who took it upon themselves to shame and vilify the heretics while making sure the sheeple remained terrified. [...] And there's really no excuse for WaPo trumpeting an obviously late and redundant study.  Anyone with half a brain already knew that exercise was essential to good outcomes, that "fresh air" was the elixir of life.  They even apparently ignored another study done by the University of Virginia School of Medicine that came to the very same conclusion, only a year and a half earlier. [...] I also have a sneaking suspicion that the "super size" lobby helped keep exercise as a mitigating factor tamped down because it would expose one of the truly sad facts of the pandemic — that obesity was (and still is) one of the leading comorbidities for COVID deaths.  The more avoirdupois you carry, the risk of an adverse outcome skyrockets.  Never, in all the haranguing about masking, washing hands, six feet separation, ad nauseum, did any of these health officials in any capacity suggest you drop a couple pounds.

Why are we still funding the Wuhan lab?  Did you know that the United States government is still funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology?  I sure didn't see that coming.  And I bet most Americans didn't either.  The argument for funding biolabs around the world has always struck me as weak.  Countries we can have some level of trust in are easily able to afford to fund their own biological research, and countries that can't afford it certainly can't be trusted to do the work safely.  The funding of these labs sure looks like a way to pour research dollars into projects that are forbidden by US law.  What other purpose could they serve?  If the US government should be doing the research, then we should do it.  Simple enough.  I have little doubt that the reason is pretty simple:  the US government isn't supposed to do gain-of-function research, yet we know that our tax dollars have funded it in labs outside the US, including the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The Orwellian response to COVID is slowly red-pilling Tim Robbins.  When I saw that Tim Robbins, one of Hollywood's loudest and proudest progressives for the last several decades, had admitted that the government's response to COVID had nothing to do with public health and everything to do with Orwellian political goals, I thought, "Wow!  He's another leftist like Russell Brand who actually believes in freedom and naively thought leftism was the pathway to liberty.  Now, he's getting red-pilled."  I nailed that one because Robbins explained his evolving viewpoint on Russell Brand's YouTube show.

What Eddie Fisher Said.  [Scroll down]  The so-called COVID pandemic was caused by the introduction of an unheard-of coronavirus created in a lab in Wuhan, China.  It seems to me that the only reason one would create a virus would be to use it as a bioweapon.  More outrageously is the fact that the lab was given research funds by our own National Institutes of Health, where Anthony Fauci was one of the officials.  He denies this happened, of course but the NIH confirmed it.  But the pandemic would have been the usual flu epidemic had the voters not chosen to turn Congress over to the Democrat Party in 2018, which pulled every weapon available to oust the man responsible for our prosperity during his administration.  No need to mention his name because he's still being targeted.

The Impaired Vision of World Remakers.  Where, in all the rantings of current global moguls does one find an iota of caring about people?  Is it in self-appointed chief honcho Klaus Schwab who without hesitation holds up the tyrannical regime of Communist China as a model for the world?  Is it in Bill Gates who with a straight face declares that a return to normality following the Covid pandemic will only come when everyone in the world is injected with an experimental "vaccine" (it's not a vaccine), as though the world is a lab and its people are the lab animals?  Is it in Anthony Fauci who, in shameless disregard for bona-fide medical advice that challenges "his science," continues to push an unsafe and ineffective non-vaccine that has been soundly condemned by doctors, scientists, and moral leaders, and who looks the other way at the tragic consequences of the demented "emergency measures" taken to end the Covid pandemic? [...] [S]ince the Covid pathogen is a coronavirus — the common cold is a coronavirus — a virus for which there has never been a cure, what makes anyone think that a cure for this coronavirus is even possible?  And if such a super dangerous virus were to appear in our midst, what could any warp-speeded emergency inoculant do to stop it?

Top Australian doctor who aggressively promoted covid vaccines admits she and partner [were] both injured by jabs.  Despite having aggressively pushed the drugs at the height of the covid saga, former Australian Medical Association Pres.  Dr. Kerryn Phelps recently confessed that covid "vaccines" destroyed the health of both her and her partner.  Phelps says the side effects she and her partner experienced after getting jabbed have been "devastating."  Some were short-lived while others have persisted to this very day, leaving the two with serious injuries that may never resolve no matter how long they wait and hope for healing.

18 Absurdities of the McConnell-Schumer Omnibus Spending Bill.  [#10] Rewarding CDC for Incompetence:  Since March 2020, Congress repeatedly has increased funding for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, despite the agency's poor response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  The bill would reward the CDC for refusing to modernize its data systems — despite a statutory requirement in effect since 2006 — by lavishing the agency with more money for data modernization.  The additional money for the CDC would come without holding it accountable for recommendations that schools remain closed for extended periods, that 2-year-olds wear masks, and other policies that harmed children.  The agency also escaped scrutiny for its unlawful decision to impose a moratorium on evictions and a mandate to wear masks on public transportation.  Nor has Congress held the CDC accountable for misinformation in several of its published studies.  The fiscal 2019 budget authority for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was $6.5 billion.  The omnibus would allocate $9.2 billion for fiscal 2023, an increase of 42% over a period during which the agency's dysfunction became evident. [...] [#17]  The omnibus spending bill would award the National Institutes of Health a 5.6% increase in funding, bringing the total to a whopping $47.5 billion.  And yet, NIH has been uncooperative with Congress on vital issues, including the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic and the troubling revelations about agency leadership's response to scientific dissent on the issue of comprehensive lockdowns.  The omnibus also would give $1.5 billion to something called the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health, or ARPA-H.

AP: You'll never guess what governments are doing with all of that pandemic tracking tech!  I'm so old that I remember when media outlets would have considered "extreme" any allegations that governments would abuse pandemic-tracking tools.  And yet, here we have the Associated Press reporting its scoop today that reveals precisely that outcome.  After first insisting that individual privacy had to be set aside in an emergency, the AP seems shocked, shocked to find that governments like being able to track and snoop on its subjects — er, citizens: [...] The AP spends a lot of time on China, but Beijing's tyranny began long before COVID arrived.  The Xi Jinping had begun integrating its tech tools, surveillance systems, and domestic intelligence into a "social credit" system that virtually locked down its populations years prior to the physical lockdowns that finally produced a revolt this year.  More interestingly, the AP takes note of the same encroaching domestic surveillance in other nations, countries with democratic values such as India, Israel, and Australia, which had some of the harshest lockdown measures in the Western world.  Their use of health apps turns out to be more like Big Brother, too.

If You Don't Want To Catch Covid, Stop Testing For It.  In response to the so-called "tridemic" of Covid, flu, and RSV, the Biden administration is again giving out free Covid tests, to the tune of four for each of the ~130 million US households.  If you're counting, that's 520 million 'free' Covid tests.  It may sound like a lot, and it is, especially when you consider the massive budget deficit and the environmental costs of continuing to needlessly produce seemingly endless tons of plastic for our landfills and oceans.  However, when you consider how much the powers-that-be really want you to test for Covid, it's a drop in the bucket.  Never mind that the virus has attenuated significantly and Covid deaths have been flat since April 2022.  Never mind that only several hundred mostly super old and super sick people are dying of or with this no-longer-novel and now-quite-common virus every day.  In spite of the facts on the ground and the fact that it's almost 2023, our medical overlords would still like to see every man, woman, and child, along with every ze and zir, test for Covid every time they get a sniffle.

Vaccine Roundtable at the Senate.  Dr. Paul Alexander:  "When you place these variants under pressure, natural selection will operate and will select for more infectious variants," explained Dr. Alexander.  "If you keep this bivalent program going, the new booster, you are going to keep this pandemic going for many, many more years.  In other words, this vaccine rollout ... will keep variants emerging one variant after the next, and they're gonna be more infectious.  And there is a concern among biologists that it could become potentially become more lethal and virulent."

Not Even N95 Masks Work To Stop Covid.  "The Experts" have repeatedly tried to deflect from the failure of their policies with misdirection.  The reason lockdowns didn't work in the United States or the United Kingdom is because they weren't strict enough, according to many in the expert community.  Of course, their excuses have been conveniently ignored as China's repressive zero COVID lockdowns have continued, with horrific consequences.  Now that mass protests have broken out in the country that "The Experts" revered for their COVID handling, there's a massive effort to disregard their own previous advocacy.  This is perhaps best exemplified by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who clearly used authoritarian measures to suppress the protests in his own country, while now supporting Chinese demonstrations.

People Died From mRNA-Vaccine-Damaged Hearts, New Peer-Reviewed German Study Provides Direct Evidence.  Medical pathologists from Heidelberg University Hospital in Heidelberg, Germany have published direct evidence showing how people found dead after mRNA vaccination died.  As this team of six scientists explore in their study, these mRNA-vaccinated patients suffered from heart damage because their hearts were attacked by their own immune cells.  This autoimmune attack on their own heart cells then leads to their damaged hearts beating so many times per second that, once the tachycardia unexpectedly started, they died in minutes.

Former New York Teacher Sentenced to Community Service for Illegally Vaccinating Teen.  The former New York teacher who was accused of illegally injecting her son's 17-year-old friend with a COVID-19 vaccine on New Year's Eve has avoided jail time, according to reports.  Laura Russo, then a science teacher at Herricks High School, was arrested on Jan. 1 at her Sea Cliff home, where the illegal injection took place.  Nassau County police said they were notified after the boy left Russo's home and told his mother what had happened.

Facebook's COVID 'Vaccine' Fact-Checkers Are Funded by Vaccine Drug Companies.  Every time I posted a new study or data analysis regarding the side effects of the Covid vaccine to Facebook, I was banned, for a month.  Every time.  [Tweet]

Fifth Circuit rejects Biden admin's "nearly unlimited authority" claims, blocks vaccine mandate.  Joe Biden's executive orders continue to die on the appellate-court vine, especially in the Fifth Circuit.  Late yesterday, a 2-1 decision kept an injunction in place against Biden's order that all federal contractors get COVID vaccines to enter their workplaces.  It's the latest pandemic mandate struck down by the courts, and a common theme runs through all of these decisions.  Courts aren't buying an imperial presidency untethered from explicit congressional grants of authority: [...] By the way, the court never does get to one of the core issues in this mandate — the fact that the extant vaccines neither stop transmission nor uptake.  They do have a demonstrated positive effect in minimizing acute and severe cases of COVID, but that's not the issue in workplace vaccine requirements.  The only reason to impose such an order would be to stop transmission of an infectious disease, which none of the vaccines actually do.  The only effect is personal and individual, and so the choice should be personal as well — just as with the tobacco analogy the Fifth Circuit wisely uses for demonstration.  The administration is fighting a battle they will lose on multiple fronts, in other words.

Tim Robbins: 'Orwellian' COVID Rules Based on Politics, Not Science.  Tim Robbins fell for the media's COVID-19 narratives hook, line and sinker.  But not for long.  The actor/director came out earlier this year against vaccine mandates for his fellow thespians, understanding it made little sense given what we've learned about the medication.  The jab doesn't stop the spread, nor does it prevent the recipient from getting the virus.  Now, he's taken that learning curve public, courtesy of Russell Brand's 6+ million YouTube subscribers.  [Video clip]  Robbins, one of Hollywood's most consistently progressive voices, revealed how he initially followed the government's COVID-19 protocols and silently shamed anyone who didn't.  Then he traveled to England in 2021 and saw many people defying those orders.  He predicted death and destruction would follow.  Except it didn't.  And that's when his awakening began.

Covid jab spike proteins cause lymphocytes to "chew a hole in the aorta," warns Dr. Cole.  Appearing on "Ask Dr. Drew" the other day for an interview about Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines," pathologist and virology expert Dr. Ryan Cole, whose name you will probably recognize from our earlier jab coverage, revealed that the spike proteins in the injections cause prolific damage to the circulatory system.  The two started out discussing where spike proteins tend to lodge throughout the body.  In Cole's estimation, they go anywhere and everywhere they choose, including in the brain.

Parents Still Masking Their Young Children Should Be Ashamed.  Our latest I&I/TIPP Poll finds that three years since COVID-19 appeared in the U.S., almost 40% of adults think it's a good idea to mask up children under 5.  As President Joe Biden might say, we have two words for such parents:  Shame.  On.  You.  And double shame on you for those liberal Democrats who like to preen about how they "listen to the science."  Shame on you for ignoring the data about who is at risk from COVID. For failing to put this risk in perspective.  And shame on you for ignoring the long-term psychological damage you're inflicting on the next generation.

FDA Finally Admits Pfizer Covid Vaccine Causes Blood Clots.  During a COVID-19 EU hearing last October, Pfizer's President of International Developed Markets, Janine Small, admitted that the vaccine had never been tested on its ability to prevent transmission, contrary to what was previously advertised.  During the hearing, when asked by Dutch politician Ross if the Pfizer COVID vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market, Janine Small responded while smiling, "Regarding the question around did we know about stopping immunization before it entered the market?  No.  We have to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market."  [Tweet]  This statement was confirmed by an unredacted Pfizer agreement from a FOIA request with the Slovenian government.

An open letter to CDC Director Walensky: Can we talk about it?  Misinformation costs lives.  Attempts to censor opposing views has only made the problem worse.  We are interested in meeting with the CDC, FDA, and NIH to discuss the evidence and see if we can agree on how to interpret the data.  We are interested in exposing the truth about the COVID mitigation measures.  We hope you will agree that dialog to resolve our differences and find the truth is more productive than attempting to censor us.

COVID Communism Has Been Contagious.  Now that we're approaching the three-year anniversary of COVID-1984's global demolition (or "Great Reset" in World Economic Forum parlance), reality looks very different from what many people once perceived it to be.  Raise your hand if you thought "free" nations would declare the authority to close millions of small businesses until they went bankrupt and folded.  Or whether never-before-used, experimental cocktails of mRNA "vaccine" would be coercively injected into citizens.  Did you think governments would conspire to cover up "vaccine"-related injuries and deaths?  Did you expect that the Canadian government would take the unprecedented steps of invoking the Emergencies Act and seizing the private bank accounts of Freedom Convoy protesters in order to intimidate peaceful Canadians and quell dissent?  Did you predict that in the United States and throughout the West, public debate would be targeted and censored if that speech contradicted governments' official public health "narratives"?  Did you know that COVID communism would end up being more contagious than the virus?  If you still have your hand raised, then you are part of a humble minority who were worried about the West's accelerating attacks against personal liberty even before the rise of COVID-1984.

Help vaccine-injured folks, and help yourself at the same time.  Maybe you've read of the often life-threatening plight of Americans who've been injured by COVID-19 vaccines, and you want to help.  Please start by giving generously to React19, an organization that represents more than 20,000 COVID-19 vaccine-injured Americans.  Founded in November 2021 by a small group of vaccine-injured folks, React19 is a nonpartisan organization raising awareness of the struggles of vaccine-injured people by telling their stories, offering support, and lobbying elected officials. While the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System has tallied more than 400,000 people who've been injured by these vaccines, the government hasn't developed a plan to study them.  Nor has it enabled them to be compensated for injuries inflicted by the vaccines.

Pointing out lies from public health experts makes Ron DeSantis a bad guy.  The Washington Post had a very odd piece published on Saturday.  I couldn't decide if it was only biased or totally ridiculous.  It was actually a bit of both.  The biased part was the substance of the piece; the totally ridiculous part was the headline, which gave away the media's game.  [Tweet]

Should We Mask Kids Under 5 To Contain COVID? — I&I/TIPP Poll.  Fearing a huge winter upswing in the number of COVID and flu cases, government officials are once again calling on Americans to don their masks to keep the deadly viruses from spreading.  But some take it a step further, suggesting even children 5 and under should put on masks.  The latest I&I/TIPP Poll asks:  Is that a good idea?  The answer, probably not surprisingly to anyone, appears to depend heavily on a variety of factors, including where you live, your race, your gender and your political leanings.  So, at the very least, we're likely in for another politicized debate over the practice of masking, this time for the youngest among us.

Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine linked to blood clotting, platelet disorder etc.  Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine has been linked to blood clotting in older individuals, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  According to a report published [elsew]here, FDA researchers, crunching data from a database of elderly persons in the United States, found that pulmonary embolism — blood clotting in the lungs — met the initial threshold for a statistical signal and continued meeting the criteria after a more in-depth evaluation.

Baby dies of large blood clot after doctor ignores parents' request for unvaxxed transfusion.  A baby boy in Washington state died of a large blood clot after a hospital gave him a blood transfusion from a general stockpile instead of from an unvaccinated donor, as his parents requested.  Soon after baby Alexander was born on January 3, 2022, his parents Cornelia Hertzler and Ron Bly discovered not only that his esophagus and trachea were abnormally connected, but that he had a heart condition — Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV), in which oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are mixed — which required surgery for long-term survival.

Newborn baby dies from "huge blood clots" following pre-surgery transfusion of covid vaccine-tainted blood.  Sacred Heart Children's Hospital in Spokane, Wash., murdered a newborn recently by giving the child a covid vaccine-tainted blood transfusion instead of the pure blood transfusion his family requested and procured for him.  Baby Alex was born with a 95 percent survivable congenital heart defect as well as anemia, which required a blood transfusion.  Since a close friend of the family had previously died after getting injected for the Fauci Flu, Alex's parents specifically asked for clean blood to go into his body.  A member of the family's church who is both unvaccinated and a blood type match donated the blood to Sacred Heart, which agreed to use it in the transfusion.  However, when it came time to do the procedure, the hospital claims it "lost" the pure blood sample, after which staff members proceeded to give Baby Alex blood from the general pool.

Most medical professionals don't believe the public health establishment.  One of my favorite Twitter follows is Dr. Vinay Prasad, who rose to prominence by being one of the few and the brave voices of reason during the pandemic.  He actually benefited because the medical establishment didn't recognize him as a threat early on — he was just another doctor and researcher who they thought posed little threat to their monopoly on Truth.  But over the pandemic he gained a following based upon his well-reasoned arguments and thoughtful analyses.  His take is pretty much what the mainstream take would have been 5 years ago.  Cautious, curious, pro-intervention when it makes sense, while recognizing the limitations of what we can actually do.  He posted a couple of tweets that pointed out the obvious: no matter what the powers-that-be are saying, actual medical practitioners are done with COVID nuttiness.

Why do some people's personalities suddenly change after receiving mRNA injections?  In this video, experts explained how the mRNA "trans"jections not only cause physical damage to some organs but how they also damage the small capillaries in the brain, override the blood-brain barrier and eventually, lead to massive personality changes.  They also discussed how the mRNA injections are literally breaking the will of some of those who received them.

German Study of Autopsies of People Found Dead at Home following COVID Vaccination.  German pathologists performed a study of autopsies on 35 people who died within 20 days of injection of a COVID 'vaccine' and found that 25 of them (71%) had final diagnoses consistent with a vaccine injury syndrome including myocardial infarction, worsening heart failure, vascular aneurysm, pulmonary embolism, fatal stroke, and vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia.  In addition, five of the cases showed that inflammation in the heart was similar to the inflammation in the arm at the injection site.  Dr. John Campbell gives a detailed explanation of the study.

Report: U.S. Intelligence Agencies Are Keeping From Congress Key Information About Covid Origins.  U.S. intelligence agencies are obstructing congressional oversight by failing to disclose relevant information about Covid-19's origins and potential connections to a Chinese bioweapons program, finds a new report from the Republicans on the House Permanent Select Committee On Intelligence.  The HPSCI Republicans led by Rep. Brad Wenstrup of Ohio found "indications that SARS-CoV-2 may have been tied to China's biological weapons research program and spilled over to the human population during a lab-related incident at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV)."  U.S. intelligence agencies, along with corporate media and Big Tech, scrambled at Covid's release to censor suggestions the virus leaked from a lab working on gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  Publications such as The Federalist that reported on evidence for the lab leak theory were punished by internet censors.

Judicial Watch Releases New Information on the Moderna Vaccine.  News has come out regarding the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, courtesy of Judicial Watch.  The watchdog group announced yesterday that it had obtained records from a FOIA lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease.  The entities had failed to respond to a FOIA request filed in June of 2021 regarding "the biodistribution studies and related data for the Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson& Johnson COVID vaccines." [...] Moderna submitted a Nonclinical Overview to the FDA to have its vaccine approved.  Included in that overview was information that rats born to mothers that had been given the mRNA vaccine had skeletal abnormalities that included conditions such as "rib nodules" and "wavy ribs."  Moderna said the conditions were not considered "adverse."  Whether or not this is significant for pregnant mothers who took the jab more than likely remains to be seen.

FDA Records Show Significant Number of mRNA Test Rats Born with Skeletal Deformations.  Judicial Watch announced today [12/13/2022] that it received 699 pages of records from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regarding data Moderna submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, which indicate a "statistically significant" number of rats were born with skeletal deformations after their mothers were injected with the vaccine.  The documents also reveal Moderna elected not to conduct a number of standard pharmacological studies on the laboratory test animals.

New Junk Study Pushes For Higher Insurance Rates for Unvaxxed.  According to the new study published in The American Journal of Medicine, people who have refused the Covid vaccine are likely to "neglect basic road safety guidelines."  The author of the study suggested insurance companies may use the findings to charge unvaccinated drivers higher premiums.  "The findings are significant enough that primary care doctors should consider counseling unvaccinated patients on traffic safety — and insurance companies might base changes to insurance policies on vaccination data, the authors suggest." according to Fortune.com.

NYC recommends wearing masks outside.  No, this is not a recommendation that came out in 2020.  It is from... Tuesday.  [Tweet]  At least it isn't a mandate.  At least not yet.  But will the madness never cease?  Really?  Have we really learned nothing?  Perhaps that is the wrong question.  No, it is the wrong question, because none of the mandates and "suggestions" have had much to do with COVID anyway.  The mask mandates were never about protecting anybody's health, but rather about forcing people to comply with absurdities.  The mandates got people used to both the idea of complying with ridiculous requirements imposed by bureaucrats and — this is important — directing a "2-minutes hate" at those who refused to be bullied into submission.  The Left needs us to be in a permanent state of near panic in order to push through their insane agenda.

DeSantis [is] Petitioning Florida Supreme Court to Impanel a Statewide Grand Jury to Investigate Coronavirus Vaccines.  Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Tuesday announced his decision to petition Florida's Supreme Court to impanel a grand jury tasked with investigating any "wrongdoing" related to the vaccines for Chinese coronavirus.  "Today, I'm announcing a petition with the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to the COVID-19 vaccines," DeSantis announced during a "Public Health Integrity Committee" roundtable discussion on Tuesday.  The governor added that they "anticipate that we will get approval for that."

The Commercial Impacts of COVID Will Last for Years.  Everybody's familiar with the problems the airline industry experienced in 2022.  Flight cancelations and delays have been commonplace — not because of weather or mechanical issues, but due to a lack of flight crews.  When everything was shut down in 2020 to "flatten the curve," many pilots and flight attendants decided to take early retirement.  Others refused to take the mandatory vaccines and lost their jobs.  Some unknown number took the jab but could no longer pass their physicals because of vaccine complications.  It wasn't a huge number of people who left the industry.  But it was enough to cause major disruptions — that will likely take years to recover from.  Now the airlines are cutting routes and flights, even though customers are offering them money for tickets — that the airlines can no longer sell.

Former Football Player 25 Yr Old Jake Hescock Dies Following Cardiac Arrest While Jogging.  Tributes have been pouring in for former University of Central Florida (UCF) football player and Massachusetts native Jake Hescock who died following a cardiac arrest last week, according to his family.  In a Facebook group dedicated to him, his cousin Lisa Walz Mlynarczyk said that 25 year old Hescock collapsed while jogging in Boston last Tuesday.

Elon Musk Flat-Out Says Fauci Lied to Congress and Gain-of-Function Research Killed People.  The many ways in which truth was silenced and harmful information was promoted by Twitter obviously had the effect of influencing the 2020 election, but the most damaging effects won't fully be known for years.  Unlike many of the things the left claims lead to death, Twitter's actions did lead to death.  Musk's tweet about his pronouns, predictably, led to a backlash from super upset liberals like Scott Kelly, who replied that Musk was promoting hate and that, by the way, "Dr. Fauci is a dedicated public servant whose sole motivation was saving lives."&n bsp; [Tweet]  If Kelly had read even a fraction of the things Twitter censored regarding Fauci, he would not be singing that tune.

Teen denied kidney transplant because she's not vaccinated for COVID, say parents.  Appearing on "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Saturday morning to discuss the dire medical dilemma their family is facing, the parents of a teenage girl who is not vaccinated against COVID-19 revealed that their daughter has been unable to move forward with the kidney transplant she needs at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina.  Chrissy Hicks, the mom of 14-year-old Yulia Hicks, recounted her exchange about the issue with a medical official.  "I said, 'So basically you're telling us if she does not get the vaccine, then she's not getting a transplant,'" Chrissy Hicks said.  "And [the medical employee] said, 'Yes, that is the one thing that is holding us up.'"

To the Bat Cave!
Virologist who funded Wuhan lab, then tried to silence COVID leak claims proudly shares videos of himself in Thai bat cave.  A virologist who funded the Wuhan lab at the center of COVID leak claims — and then allegedly tried to 'bully' that theory away — has proudly filmed himself inside a bat-filled cave and handling the creatures for his research.  Last week, Dr. Peter Daszak posted a video on his Twitter filmed from the depths of the Ratchaburi Cave in Thailand.  Daszak, who is from England and now lives in upstate New York, was surrounded by 2.5 million of the creatures he thinks COVID-19 came from.  He referred to the cave as the 'reactor core' of viral activity.

Voters Want COVID 'Emergency' To End: I&I/TIPP Poll.  With the media saturated once again with forecasts of a coming surge in COVID cases and the flu this winter, it's perhaps no surprise that Americans overwhelmingly believe the pandemic is still with us.  But they also want the government to end its COVID emergency declaration, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.  In a much-discussed interview with CBS News' 60 Minutes back in September, President Biden made the controversial comment that the pandemic "is over" in the U.S. His remarks set off a lively, and at times angry, debate.  The I&I/TIPP poll asked respondents simply, "Is the COVID pandemic over or not over?"  By a slightly more than 2-to-1 margin, those answering the question said it was "not over" (60%) compared to those saying it was "over" (28%).  "Not sure" trailed, coming in at 12%.

Rasmussen poll shows the COVID vaccines are not safe.  The Rasmussen poll of 1,000 Americans found that:
  [#1]   32% were not vaccinated
  [#2]   7% of those surveyed had a major side effect.
A 7% major side effect rate is unprecedented.  We know from the V-safe data that this effectively means that the side effect was so bad, they had to seek medical attention.  If any drug had that kind of safety profile, it would be immediately pulled from the market.  Would you take any drug with that kind of side effect profile?  Of course not.  It's off the charts!  However, because we are told it is a safe and effective vaccine, people do what they are told despite the lack of safety.  That's how science works.  Note that people who were killed by the vaccine were unable to participate in the survey, so the actual numbers are slightly worse.  Rasmussen also admitted that Google censors unfavorable results!

Fauci's Deposition Lies and the Stunning Allegations of Li-Meng Yan.  It's been a long time since something I was reading kept me up all night in the way that the mysteries of Raymond Chandler and Arthur Conan Doyle did in my youth.  And never — you can be sure — was it a legal deposition.  But last night, I was riveted by every word in the deposition that Dr. Anthony Fauci gave in a lawsuit — initiated by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana — that alleges that our government acted in collusion with Big Tech to censor and even massively discredit its critics, including many eminent doctors, regarding COVID-19.  I was riveted even though Fauci, despite being of an obviously high IQ, suddenly was having memory loss almost as extreme as our president, repeating some version of "I don't recall" as his answer to questions so often that it may have gone over a thousand times in the 446-page document.  While you could call it a masterpiece of James Comey-style prevarication, it became so obvious that you could predict almost every variation on this theme before the longtime (1984) director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the president's chief medical adviser even said it.

Lab Leak: What If That Theory Isn't True Either?  What if I were to tell you that the lab leak theory of Covid-19 wasn't really true?  And that it was just another ploy to control our lives?  Would you think I was wearing a tinfoil hat much too tight?  Yet that's what a neurobiologist from the University of Pittsburgh says.  Dr. Jonathan J. Couey was one of the founders of DRASTIC, the "Decentralized Radical Autonomous Search Team Investigating Covid-19."  Composed of an online cadre of international scientists, DRASTIC has maintained the lab leak theory of Covid origin, and have been rewarded by being published in prestigious media outlets.  But now Couey has broken with DRASTIC, insisting that he was fooled into believing that Covid emerged from a lab leak.  He now believes that the theory is controlled opposition, or a "double bluff."  Why?  It's so elites can maintain a perpetual state of pandemic emergency.

How COVID-19 Affected Life Insurance and Brought About the Changes You May See Soon.  The life insurance industry has permanently changed due to COVID-19.  The pandemic and the large number of deaths caused by it produced a rush to get life insurance policies — which has placed a degree of uncertainty in the marketplace with insurers trying to calculate just how much to charge.  The biggest problems that the industry faces at present are that there is not enough information available yet to make accurate calculations of costs.  The payouts were much larger than ever.  COVID-19 brought a massive increase in payments in 2020 to beneficiaries, CNBC said, coming to more than $90 billion.  It was an increase of 15.4 percent above the previous year.  In 2021, payouts increased another 11 percent, costing life insurance companies more than $100 billion.  Much of the demand was from families trying to protect the elderly.  Personal policies also saw an increase in applicants, but it was less than an increase of 4 percent in either year.

Canadian quarantine cops fined close to 5,000 children for violating Trudeau's COVID rules.  Recently released figures show Canadian Public Health Agency inspectors who were empowered to issue fines cited an alarming 4,883 children for breaking government COVID quarantine rules.  As per Blacklock's Reporter, Canada's cabinet, in an Inquiry of Ministry brought before the House of Commons, said warnings to kids under age 18 were given in person by law enforcement officials "as a result of non-compliance identified either at the port of entry or during a police check at the traveler's quarantine address."  The information was requested by Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu and shows that some 58,760 minors, at one point or another mandated to stay home under Canada's Quarantine Act, were issued warnings under the act.  The information did not say how old the children were but that the warnings were mostly made by Public Health Agency inspectors.

Toxicology expert warns mRNA COVID jabs could 'sterilize an entire generation'.  A toxicology expert with over 30 years of scientific experience issued a stark warning Wednesday about the potential reproductive harm she believes could be caused by the mRNA COVID jabs.  She said more research is needed to determine the shots' effects on reproduction.  In a Wednesday roundtable discussion hosted by U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Dr. Janci Lindsay warned that the COVID-19 jabs could "potentially sterilize an entire generation" or else "be passed on to next generations as inadvertent gene transfer."  Accordingly, Lindsay argued that it is "absolutely irresponsible to continue any of these shots" for children and people of child-bearing age "without investigating this," explaining "there is no way that we can say at this point that they are safe nor effective."

No data for "safe and effective", but the FDA wants physicians to inject our babies with a 3rd dose.  In the news release, the FDA has bulleted points on what "parents and caregivers" should know. [...] So, let's recap.  There is NOTHING in the news release or the bulleted points that shows data that these injections are safe or effective for children four years old down to six months old.  Side effects continue same as before — which means they are significantly higher than is expected for normal vaccines.  This by the way, is the understatement of the year.  Then comes the next paragraph in the FDA News Release:  "The data to support giving an updated bivalent booster dose for these children are expected in January.  The agency is committed to evaluating those data as quickly as possible."  Yeh — so the FDA literally does't have any data for this bivalent booster for this age cohort but they are making it available under emergency use authorization anyways.

World Renowned Cardiologist Warns Public To Avoid 'Deadly Covid Vaccine' After It Kills His Father.  One of the world's top cardiologists has warned the public not to take the "toxic COVID vaccination" after his own father died as a result of taking the experimental jab.  Fox News host Tucker Carlson recently interviewed cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra and discussed the disturbing evidence that led him to conclude that the Covid vaccines need to be banned worldwide.  Dr. Malhotra highlighted the corruption of medicine by Big Pharma, politicians, academic institutions, medical journals, regulatory bodies, and the mainstream media.

New Zealand Court Removes Custody of Ill Baby From Parents After They Decline "Vaccinated" Blood.  On Wednesday, Dec. 7, a New Zealand court ruled against a sick baby's parents who declined the use of "vaccinated" blood for the baby's surgery.  The court's ruling instead gave the child's custody to the country's health agency.  The parents of the infant, who urgently requires open-heart surgery, had requested that the blood for the surgery come from people who have not received the Covid-19 vaccine.  The 4-month-old baby has severe pulmonary valve stenosis, the parents said.  Surgery is needed "almost immediately," but the couple are "extremely concerned with the blood [the doctors] are going to use."  "We don't want blood that is tainted by vaccination," the father said.  "That's the end of the deal — we are fine with anything else these doctors want to do."  Sounds pretty reasonable, right?  Yet, in response, New Zealand's health agency claimed guardianship of the child and applied for custody, against the wishes of the parents.  The baby now awaits surgery in a hospital in Auckland.

Sinovac Covid vaccine has received approval in Germany but is to be given to Chinese nationals only.  German Federal Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach granted the Chinese Sinovac vaccine an import permit and [beginning] 7 December 2022, Sinovac was permitted to be administered in Germany — but only to Chinese nationals.  There had previously been concerns about Sinovac's safety.  However, according to Lauterbach, these have now been cleared up after the Paul Ehrlich Institute evaluated them — but only for Chinese nationals. [...] [I]t's just amazing that the alleged pharmaceutical preferences of Chinese foreign nationals residing in Germany are enough to bend the arm of the state, which spent a good part of the last two years caring not at all about the vigorously asserted pharmaceutical preferences of actual Germans.  The Federal Republic actively coerced untold millions into accepting vaccination with products they distrusted.

California Awards $192M No-Bid Contract for Covid Graphics.  The California Public Health Department inked a $192 million no-bid contract with a marketing and communications firm to make Covid-19 graphics — two years after the pandemic began.  The details of the contract, posted on the Health Dept's website, and shared on Twitter, show that the contract was acquired by Sacramento-based ad agency Runyon Saltzman without being competitively bid.  The contract began in January 2022 and runs through June 2023, and dubbed "Covid-19 public education," will provide graphic design for the state to put out Covid information to the public.

31-Year-Old NFL Player Suffered Sudden Stroke at Home.  At six-foot-six and 301 powerful pounds, Carolina Panthers defensive end Henry Anderson seemed otherwise entirely healthy.  But in October, the 31-year-old player suddenly suffered a stroke that threatened to end his playing career.  Anderson says that he was at home on Oct. 22 when he began feeling his legs going numb and found his speech slurred. [...] It has not been reported if Anderson had taken the coronavirus vaccination, but at the outset of the pandemic he was with the New York Jets, so it is likely that he was because New York had a rule that athletes could not play unless they were fully vaccinated.

There is no such thing as an mRNA vaccine.  Stop calling it that.  The most evil crime in our nation's history is being committed right now, on our watch.  American adults and innocent children are being injured, disabled and killed by being psychologically manipulated and coerced into participating in a heinous global experiment of being injected with mRNA technology bioweapons under the guise of "Covid-19 vaccines."  There's no such thing as an mRNA vaccine.  Stop calling it that.  mRNA is and always has been part of the category of gene-editing technologies.  Gene-editing technologies are used to invent new species — from viruses, to plants, to hybrid parasites and animals — create autoimmune diseases, cause cancers, and to develop military-grade bioweapons.  mRNA gene-editing technologies have been researched and developed for over 40 years, drove companies into bankruptcy many times, and have never been FDA-approved for anything before Covid-19 because they have no useful benefits to human health, and can only cause harm, injury and death.

28-Year-Old Woman Suddenly Drops Dead at Gym, Heart Attack Suspected.  In an alarming incident captured on closed-circuit television, a woman at a gym in South America collapsed in the middle of a workout.  She was taken to the hospital, but was pronounced dead of an apparent heart attack, the New York Post reported.  The woman was identified as Betsy Dayana Jaramillo Ramírez.  She was 28, according to the report.

FDA Says Ivermectin Doesn't Work Against COVID-19 but Points to Studies That Show It Does.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says a drug called ivermectin does not work against COVID-19 but links to studies that show it does, an Epoch Times review has found.  The FDA's website states, "Currently available data do not show ivermectin is effective against COVID-19."  But half of the studies to which the FDA points support using ivermectin against COVID-19, according to the review.  The papers cut against the drug agency's repeated exhortations for people not to take ivermectin for COVID-19.  In Twitter posts, public statements, and emails, FDA officials have repeatedly warned against ivermectin.  Some of those statements triggered a lawsuit from doctors who say the agency's role is to approve drugs, not to issue recommendations.  The suit was dismissed this week.

Why do mask mandates fail, even with strict compliance and N95s?  [Thread reader]  I believe those pushing for mask mandates are dishonest &/or willfully ignorant &/or mentally unwell.  If an N95-style respirator isn't perfectly sealed, it isn't capable of filtering an aerosolized respiratory pathogen.  The video below shows how "fit-testing" works.  Masks cannot filter aerosolized particles and an unsealed N95 respirator is merely a mask.  [Video clip]  Exaggerating the capabilities of masks (or even N95 respirators) provides a *false sense of security.  Below, a certified industrial hygienist testifies about real-world limitations.  His claims are backed by controlled studies.  [Video clip]  In the video clips below, spanning 2009 to 2020, infectious disease experts laugh at the idea of mask mandates or mask-wearing to prevent illness (alluding to crime, ineffectiveness, loss of dignity and annoyance).  Did "the science" change in April 2020?  It did not.  [Video clip]  The NEJM suggested that universal masking may not have a scientific nor logical basis, yet cited masks as "talismans" that may increase a "sense of safety, well-being, and trust."  (A prelude to further arguments conflating perception with reality.) [...] If the filtration capability of an N95 is compromised by a gap the size of a human hair, then what of cloth masks?  A 2015 cluster randomized trial found that workers who wore cloth masks presented more illness than those who wore no mask at all.

Defense bill rolls back Pentagon's Covid vaccine mandate.  A compromise defense policy bill released Tuesday night would end the Pentagon's policy requiring troops to receive the Covid vaccine — and kicking out those troops who refuse it — delivering a win to Republicans who railed against the policy.  A final version of the National Defense Authorization Act included the measure after conservatives threatened to hold up the bill to curtail the vaccine mandate.  The policy became a point of contention in talks in recent days between Democratic and Republican leaders over the bill.

Civil Disobedience Starts Here.  As COVID-19 cases increase, the Los Angeles County public health director is threatening — yes, that's the right word — another indoor mask mandate.  It's a hob-nailed boot on the neck.  Angelenos need to resist, for themselves and the rest of the country.  "As COVID cases and other viruses continue to rise, the Southland is inching closer to a mask mandate," the Los Angeles CBS affiliate reported Sunday.  Barbara Ferrer, the county director of public health, who is not a physician, not a nurse, not even a paper shuffler at a doctor's office, but a social welfarist, said last week that "masking" is one of several "commonsense mitigation strategies" that "remains a very sensible approach."  Don't mistake mask mandates as harmless cases of officials acting in an abundance of caution or just covering their backsides, as government always does.  Mask mandates are open displays of outright meanness, a manifestation of authoritarian urges to control others.  There is no data, no reputable research that tells us mask mandates works.  In fact, the data tells the opposite.  Yet officials such as Ferrer and the Sacramento schools chamberlains are insisting that masks must go back on.

Bangladesh announces new Covid vaccination campaign despite no evidence of a pandemic — Why?  On 30 November, Shamsul Hoque announced a target of injecting 9 million Bangladeshis with Covid "vaccines" under a week-long special campaign beginning 1 December.  He said vaccine doses will be administered during the week 1-7 Dec at 15,984 centres across the country during the drive.  Hoque is the member secretary of the vaccine deployment committee of the Directorate General of Health Services under Bangladesh's Ministry of Health.  The World Health Organisation ("WHO") recommends that 70 percent of the population be vaccinated, Hoque said.  The announcement came a day after the country had recorded 11 new cases of Covid and one death in a 24-hour period.

Found Dead at Home After COVID-19 Vaccination.  The public is becoming increasingly disturbed with reports of death among the vaccinated.  It is natural to ask "was the death caused by vaccination?" The most definitive way of answering that question is with autopsy.  Schwab et al reported on deaths after vaccination with detailed autopsies in Heidelberg, Germany.  Of 35 fatalities within 20 days of injection, 10 were ruled out as clearly not due to the vaccine (eg drug overdose).  The remaining 25 (71%) had final diagnoses consistent with a vaccine injury syndrome including myocardial infarction, worsening heart failure, vascular aneurysm, pulmonary embolism, fatal stroke, and vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia.  Interestingly, 5 cases had acute myocarditis as the cause of death with the histopathology in the heart muscle showing patchy inflammation very similar to what was seen in the deltoid muscle were the mRNA vaccine was injected.

The Ghostly Traces of COVID.  [Scroll down] The persistence of masks prompts the question, why?  Specifically, why do individuals persist in their pandemic roles?  Who liked what they were doing so much that it continues to provide comfort? [...] Children whose parents are Pandemic Party members wear masks like latter-day party armbands.  Someone pushed it and so it was done.  Deprogramming takes time and patience but each moment of persistence delays the day that deprogramming begins.  Humans can rationally understand the economics of sunk costs and, with some difficulty, cut ties.  TV shows investigating the sad plight of hoarders reveal that emotional sunk costs are far less easily tossed.  In fact, they tend to accumulate, multiplying exponentially until a home becomes both an unlivable mess and a crowded crypt housing the emotional trauma that was never resolved, never healed.  These damaged "masking" souls will remain perpetually prone to repeat this cycle.  Something will retrigger the fear; the fear will prompt the response to shelter and hide; sheltering and hiding will provide relief, even a feeling of comfort.  And a need for the whole cycle to repeat itself.

German study: COVID-19 vaccine killing otherwise healthy people.  First things first:  there is no way to know for sure how common this is due to poor screening and reporting, but German researchers have decisively demonstrated through autopsy that the COVID-19 vaccine-induced myocarditis was the cause of death in 5 patients they autopsied after sudden deaths experienced shortly after COVID-19 vaccination.  The study was published in the peer reviewed journal Clinical Research in Cardiology.  The doctor sharing the study is a Johns-Hopkins professor and graduate of the Harvard School of Public Health, so not a nobody in the public health world.

Malone vs Breggin, et al.  A $25 Million Lawsuit [pdf].

Secret Government Reports reveal at least 1.8 Million people have 'Died Suddenly' since the roll-out of the COVID Vaccines.  Official reports published by the Governments of the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK & most of Europe, confirm 1.8 million excess deaths have been recorded since the mass roll-out of the Covid-19 injections.  Further evidence published by the UK Government confirms the most likely cause of these excess deaths is Covid-19 vaccination because mortality rates are lowest among the unvaccinated in every single age group.  Some countries have been quite transparent in publishing data on deaths, such as the UK and Europe for example.  However, they have refused to actively publicise the figures because of what they reveal.  But other countries, such as the USA, have done their utmost to conceal data on deaths as much as possible.

The U.S. Medical System is Collapsing after Mass Exodus of Doctors and Nurses.  The fact that there is a crisis in the U.S. medical system is not in dispute, as even the corporate media has been covering this since 2021, as many hospital Emergency Rooms across the U.S. have either closed down completely, or reduced their hours, due to lack of staffing.  One of the most recent closings happened at Wellstar's Atlanta Medical Center in Southwest Atlanta, a predominantly Black community.  Earlier this month (November 2022) a group of medical organizations that include the American Medical Association and American Psychiatric Association warned President Biden that hospital emergency departments were reaching a "breaking point" as they deal with influxes of patients seeking beds that are not available.

A Conversation With a Doctor.  A recent conversation with my (now former) GP did not go well.  After insisting on the virulent consequences of COVID-19 and extolling the efficacy of the jabs, he did not respond kindly to my demurrals.  He simply dismissed as the illiteracy of a layman my recital of the results provided by our best, independent virologists on the 99% recovery rate from the virus (the profusion of contrary fact-checks by the usual suspects is obviously meant to uphold the ritual narrative), the adverse and often lethal nature of the genomic injections, and the grand collusion and bulldozing approach of the major operators promoting the greatest scam of the modern age, perhaps the greatest scam in human history — referred to as a "plandemic."

Global Health and the Art of Really Big Lies.  COVID-19 opened the way for a much sought-after pandemic future.  The new public health response trialed with this outbreak was far more attractive to investors with its centralization, and commoditization with vast opportunities for future growth.  The excellent COVID-19 wealth shifts from the masses to the few have justified decades of patient investment in public-private partnerships that have broken down the arms-length approach global health once had with conflicted corporate interests.  Truth was the only persistent obstacle to corporatizing and monetizing global public health, but COVID-19 proved that this impediment to progress can be expunged through consistent lying and vilification of truth-tellers backed by a well-managed behavioral psychology campaign.  This pandemic response provided a template not only for vastly-increased corporate income, but for job certainty and expansion of opportunity for the army of mostly-Western bureaucrats and health professionals filling the offices, meeting rooms and business-class seats of its implementing organizations.  COVID-19 made corporate colonialism respectable again.  Superficially, COVID-19 appears a poor disease choice to facilitate a societal reset.  Death is heavily concentrated in old age, over 75 years in Western countries.  Severe cases are generally confined to those with life expectancies already shortened by metabolic diseases and obesity.  Countries that failed to implement measures to restrict and impoverish their people, such as Sweden and Tanzania, had COVID-19 outcomes similar to those that opted for lockdowns and other trappings of medical fascism.

Fauci Deposition Transcript Released: 'I Don't Recall' 174 Times.  Louisiana and Missouri on Monday released the entirety of the November 23, 2022, deposition of Dr. Anthony Fauci as part of the lawsuit against the Biden administration and federal government, which Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry (R) said confirms that "federal bureaucrats in collusion with social media companies want to control not only what you think, but especially what you say."  The lawsuit focused on allegations of federal officials colluding with social media companies to censor speech, and Fauci's deposition, Landry explained, shows that "social engineering tactics were used against the American public, not to limit your exposure to a virus, but to limit your exposure to information that did not fit within a government sanctioned narrative."

Fauci transcript released, says 'I don't recall' a whopping 174 times.  What is it with high-profile Democrats and sudden onsets of amnesia?  Did the modern Mengele hire Hillary's lawyers?  Yesterday afternoon [12/5/2022] Eric Schmitt, Senator-elect and current Attorney General from Missouri, dropped the full transcript from a recent deposition involving Anthony Fauci — after a tally, Fauci had used the politician's cliché "I don't recall" a total of 174 times.  Schmitt also detailed that in February of 2020, Fauci instructed a colleague to forgo the mask, but then just a few short months later, pushed for "universal mask mandates" — we don't call him Flip-Flop Fauci for nothing.

Rogue Virginia ABC Sends Police to Enforce COVID Lockdown.  Virginia has a famous Republican Governor, Glenn Youngkin, who has made his opposition to arbitrary COVID-19 mandates clear.  But his predecessor, Democrat Governor Ralph Northam, although out of office for ten months, apparently still calls the shots at the Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control Board.  He does so through board members he appointed.  Indeed, every one of them, including Board Chair Maria J. K. Everett and Board CEO Travis Hill, are rogue agents bent on enforcing Northam's infamous Executive Order 72 even after it was withdrawn in May of 2021.  For the current members of the Virginia ABC Board, elections appear to be irrelevant.  So long as the Board members have the power to contradict one of Governor Youngkin's key policy positions, they appear intent on doing so.  And so it is that in all their fulsome Democrat glory, they authorized a police raid the early morning of December 2 against an honest, hard-working veteran who owns one of Fredericksburg, Virginia's most popular restaurants, Gourmeltz.  That owner, Matt Strickland, is a prominent Republican, a popular prospective candidate for the Virginia State Senate, and a party opponent of the Board members.

Biden's Sec of Defense Tells Congress to Ban Unvaccinated Troops.  In the midst of a massive military recruiting crisis and Republicans taking the House, the misguided vaccine mandate may be on its way out. [...] The latest DOD totals showed 690 deaths, of those only 96 were military.  Last time I checked was in July and there were 95 military deaths.  The vast majority of deaths involved civilians.  The people most at risk here are the elderly, immune compromised and otherwise not the healthy men that the military needs.  Austin has no medical argument to make here, but the vaccine mandate was never actually a medical issue.  It was a political one that was part of the larger ideological purge of the military.

Secret CDC Report: Since the launch of Operation Warp Speed, at least 1.1 million Americans have "died suddenly".  The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has quietly confirmed that at least 1.1 million Americans have "died suddenly" ever since Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines" were introduced under Operation Warp Speed.  Since the time when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted emergency use authorization (EUA) for the jabs, more than six million Americans total have died.  Of this, 1,106,079 deaths are considered to be "excess," based on the five-year average from 2015 to 2019.  Other government data confirms that mortality rates per 100,000 people are highest among the "fully vaccinated" population, suggesting covid injections are the cause of all this excess mortality.

New Zealand Fights to Remove Baby From Parents Who Refuse 'Tainted Vaccinated' Blood For Child's Operation.  In New Zealand, a terrifying situation has arisen around a four-month-old baby who has to undergo life-saving heart surgery The baby's parents, Sam and Cole, have asked the hospital not to use vaccinated blood in their child Will's operation.  Their baby has pulmonary valve stenosis and needs immediate surgery.  Instead of their request being granted, the state is fighting to strip them of their parental rights and seize control of their child.  The baby's parents recently explained their position during an interview with Liz Gunn, a broadcaster from New Zealand who herself has raised concerns about the safety of the experimental "vaccines."

McCarthy vows military vaccine mandate will end or national defense bill won't move forward.  House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said the military's vaccine mandate will be lifted or the national defense bill will not move forward.  "We're working through what is the [National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)], the national defense bill, we will secure lifting that vaccine mandate on our military.  Because what we're finding is, they're kicking out men and women that have been serving. ... That's the first victory of having a Republican majority, and we'd like to have more of those victories, and we should start moving those now," McCarthy told host Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures."  The White House said Saturday that the Biden administration was considering repealing the military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate after speaking with McCarthy.

LA Health Officials Won't Move On From Covid Because They Can't.  Anyone still wearing a face mask to protect himself from Covid probably has no intention of ever shedding it now.  Residents may no longer even have a choice in Los Angeles, where local health officials pledge to reinstate mandates as soon as next week.  On Thursday, Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer threatened the return of an indoor mask mandate if rates of hospitalization attributed to Covid continue to climb.  "If both hospitalization indicators, new COVID-19 admissions and the proportion of staffed in-patient beds occupied by COVID patients, surpass the threshold for high, LA County will return to universal indoor masking," Ferrer said.  According to a local Fox affiliate, the county's transmission level is at "medium."  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) considers community transmission "high" when there are more than 10 new Covid-19 admissions per 100,000 people and the county sees more than 200 new cases per 100,000 people over a seven-day period.  The CDC's threshold for "high" transmission could allegedly be met by next week, greeted by mandatory face coverings — no matter how useless even the CDC and other so-called health experts have admitted most of them are.

Scientist who worked at Wuhan lab says COVID was man-made virus.  A scientist who worked at a controversial research lab in China has claimed that COVID was a man-made virus that leaked from the facility, according to a report.  Andrew Huff, who worked for a New York-based non-profit that studied viruses, said COVID leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China two-plus years ago and blamed authorities for the "biggest US intelligence failure since 9/11," Britain's The Sun reported Saturday [12/3/2022].  The lab has been at the center of fierce debates about the origins of COVID, with both Chinese government officials and lab personnel denying that the virus leaked from the facility.

'Negative Efficacy' Should Have Stopped COVID Vaccine Recommendations In Their Tracks.  Several health agencies throughout the world have recently approved and are aggressively promoting another COVID booster shot, which is intended to improve the vaccine's efficacy against a COVD-19 infection.  Numerous studies, however, have concluded that boosters do not make a substantial difference in protection, particularly against reinfection.  According to the most recent research, vaccine efficacy against the coronavirus can even go into the negatives after only a few months.  Numerous studies have shown that COVID vaccination efficacy decreases rapidly over time.  Even though the official narrative for COVID-19 vaccines now only focuses its efficacy in reducing ICU admission and death rates, it actually indicates the undeniable fact that vaccines do not safeguard against infection or even symptomatic infection, contradictory to their design, especially since the emergence of various Omicron variants.

The Insanity of 'Zero Covid'.  Many have wondered about the utter insanity of China's "zero covid" policy and why its being maintained after a couple of years experience in which it fails repeatedly, and the virus keeps popping up.  "Zero covid" was always medically and physically bankrupt.  Even masks are bankrupt as we knew all the way back to 1981 with Neil Orr's seminal study on the matter in operating rooms where everyone was a trained professional.  That's the best possible test environment with no confounders, since everyone is trained and all the things in the room are sterilized — and everyone scrubs in before entering.  Yet the results were what they were:  The operating rooms where masks were not in use had decreased infection rates — in the same hospital.  This study spurred several others, including one where they put micrometer-sized spheres in the masks before people donned them.  They then found them in the wounds of the patients, which proved that (1) whatever the physician or nurse had in their mouth, nose and lungs was getting through and around the mask and (2) it wound up on and in the patients.  This should have settled the debate immediately, but despite being reported, peer-reviewed and published all of that was ignored when Covid showed up.

The Democrats' Contempt for the American People.  One must infer that the Biden administration does not believe that the peasants have a right to know about the origins of the Coronavirus that has, so far, killed over 6.6 million people in the world and over 1.1 million in the United States.  When Trump, who had been blindsided by the virus, was the president, Biden stated that no one who had presided over 220,000 virus deaths should be the president of the United States, but after he was installed as president with a big "D" behind his name and the death toll is almost five times what it was under Trump, Joe's calls for the resignation of any president who has presided over so many deaths has been cancelled.  The Biden administration's and what passes for our "news" media's new mission seems to be to prevent anyone from asking the Biden administration's beloved Dr. Fauci, who, with his close ties to the Wuhan Lab, if he or his communist Chinese comrades had anything to do with the origins of the pandemic.  One would certainly not want to embarrass Hunter's paymasters in the Chinese Communist Party.

Extensive Two-Year Study Pokes All Kinds of Holes in N95 Masks — Biden, Fauci Hardest Hit.  After the CDC took nearly two years to tell America and presumably the world that cloth masks were virtually worthless for mitigating the spread of COVID-19 and that N95 masks provide "the highest" level of protection, a new peer-reviewed, international randomized controlled trial (RCT) has found no statistically significant real-world evidence that masks stop aerosolized transmission of the virus.  In my not-so-humble opinion — an opinion many of us have shared for nearly two years — masks are largely virtue-signaling symbols worn by liberals, or others frightened into believing that masks are effective in preventing one from contracting the virus.  Incidentally, if they did[, w]hy did liberals' hair catch on fire if they were wearing a mask and you weren't?

LA Public Health Director Salivates Over [the] Prospect of New Mask Mandates.  Did you have a nice Thanksgiving?  Maybe now you're hoping to celebrate Christmas and Dr. Fauci's retirement, drink some egg nog at a party and not obsess over COVID during the holidays?  Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer has other ideas, and desperately wants to bring back mask mandates to the county's ten million people due to a rise in cases.  Speaking at a press conference Thursday, she reminded us that the pandemic is definitely not over (even though President Joe Biden said months ago that it was).

The Question Fools Don't Ask of 'Experts': 'What Is the Price?'.  What would you think of a person who never asked the price of anything he or she bought?  You would assume the person was inordinately wealthy.  But if the person wasn't, you would dismiss him as a fool, and you would certainly never ask this person for advice about how to spend your money.  Yet, for two years, that question — "What is the price?" — was avoided by virtually every political leader in the world as well as the vast majority of epidemiologists and physicians, journalists and editors, college presidents, deans, professors, and K-12 teachers.  They never asked, "What is the price?" with regard to locking down businesses, schools, and, in many cases, entire countries.  That is why so many political leaders, teachers, college presidents, doctors, epidemiologists, and other scientists turned out to be fools.

Former Army lieutenant colonel speaks out after losing [his] career for refusing COVID jab.  Refusing a COVID-19 vaccine was a "no-brainer" despite the career ramifications, says former U.S. Army Lt. Col. Bradley Miller.  In October 2021, Miller was relieved of his position as battalion commander in the 101st Airborne Division for not taking the mandatory shot and opted to resign completely the following January.  "I was very well aware of the ramifications my decision would have for my command, my career, and my retirement," Miller told American Family News in comments published Tuesday.  "But in my mind, I was placed in a situation where I had to choose the harder right over the easier wrong."

Miraculous Recovery of Hypoxemic COVID-19 Patients With Ivermectin.  The past three years have generated millions of case vignettes of patients with COVID-19 respiratory illness.  The most dramatic cases include critically ill inpatients with severe hypoxemia despite maximum respiratory support.  By far, the most notable cases of survival have occurred with the administration of ivermectin.  Former NIH researcher David Scheim, PhD, early in the pandemic proposed that SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein was acting like a grappling hook pulling together circulating red blood cells into long chains and clumps in a process called hemagglutination.  This explained why the red blood cells could not carry oxygen normally and was congruent with the finding of micro blood clots in the lungs.  Recently, Boschi et al have provided additional support for this mechanism.  In a spectacular publication, Stone et al, describes the prompt improvement of oxygenation in patients with ivermectin.

Rigorous international study of N95 masks upends federal COVID narrative.  The CDC took nearly two years to formally recognize distinctions between masks for mitigating COVID-19 spread, finally saying in January that cloth masks offer "the least" protection and N95 respirators, which meet strict federal standards, "the highest."  The agency's slight nod to the largely symbolic value of cloth masks, predominantly worn in school settings, followed months of calls by onetime White House COVID advisers, among others, to promote masks actually designed to stop aerosolized transmission.  It also spurred a run on N95s, sending prices skyward.  But a new peer-reviewed, randomized controlled trial (RCT) of N95s versus surgical masks, considered the midrange of protection, is undermining the late federal pivot to higher-quality masks and calls to reimpose mask mandates in schools, among other settings.

Anti-vaxxer nurse who injected up to 8,600 elderly patients with saltwater instead of Covid vaccine walks FREE from court in Germany.  An anti-vaxxer nurse who injected up to 8,600 elderly people with saline solution instead of a Covid-19 vaccine has walked free from court.  Red Cross nurse Antje T, 39, jabbed thousands of elderly patients at a vaccine centre in Germany with what she told them was the BioNTech Pfizer vaccine but was just a saltwater solution.  The nurse, who administered the fake vaccines at the Schortens jab centre in Friesland, northwest Germany, was given just six months on probation.

Why Indiscriminate Mass Vaccination Has Worsened the Pandemic.  A principle of infectious diseases is "antimicrobial stewardship" which involves choosing the right antibiotic for the right patient and never over-prescribing or blanket covering patients who don't need treatment.  Another principle is "narrowing the spectrum" of a drug once the organism is identified by culture or other methods.  These fundamental approaches to the use of antibiotics work to limit the problem of bacterial resistance and the development of "superbugs."  Every year hospitals each produce their antibiogram or report of their common infections encountered and what antibiotics either are effective (organism is sensitive) or ineffective (organism is resistant).  In the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic these principles have been applied to the use of monoclonal antibodies and the process explains why various EUA products (e.g., bamlanivimab) were pulled from the market when they were understood to be no longer effective at neutralizing SARS-CoV-2.  This entire thought process has been thrown out the window for COVID-19 vaccines.

Millionaires Collected COVID Unemployment Income.  Townhall has reported on several situations in which Americans took advantage of COVID-19 pandemic programs and defrauded the government to enrich themselves at the expense of taxpayers, but it turns out there were also perfectly legal loopholes that allowed wealthy Americans to take unemployment benefits — even those who had annual incomes over $1 million.  Recent data released by the IRS reveal that thousands of Americans — 19,003 to be exact — reported receiving unemployment compensation in 2020 despite having adjusted gross income of greater than $1 million that year.  The amount of unemployment compensation that those millionaires received totaled $263,794,000.

Millions of Chinese Citizens are now Homeless after CCP Turns off Protesters' Health Passports.  'Heath Passports' is exactly what the World Economic Forum is looking to spread around the world.  This is what just happened in China when people decided to speak out against the government in charge, they literally turned their health passes off which are used to enter and exit buildings post-[Corona] era in China.  This means millions of Chinese citizens have just lost everything they own.  Get ready for those protests to get much, much wilder!  [Video clip]

Unintended Consequence of COVID-19 Vaccines — Permanent Installation of mRNA Genetic Code.  When we heard about Operation Warp Speed there was sense of shock and awe.  American greatness was poised to strike the "China Virus" and it was going to be defeated in a matter of weeks.  The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) created a project many years ago called ADEPT Pandemic Prevention Platform (P3) whose stated goal was to "end pandemics in 60 days with mRNA technology."  Our government has had a love affair with mRNA for over a decade for precisely a time such as the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak.  Hardly a virus from China, we have learned that Dr. Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill has been publishing on coronaviruses since the 1990's.  Baric and his consortium including Harvard and two Swiss labs conceived the projects, wrote the federal grants, and once awarded, did their development work in the Wuhan Institute of Virology biosecurity annex level 4.  The laboratory built by Stephane Bancel formerly at BioMérieux and now CEO of Moderna, the NIH partner in the mRNA patent.  I wonder in all the DARPA and NIH meetings that occurred in the last ten years on mRNA, did they ever consider reverse transcription?

The medical establishment tries to label people as mentally ill if they don't vaccinate.  In Canada, Big Pharma Ontario wants to put every Canadian who is fully unvaccinated on psychiatric medications for being "mentally ill" for not desiring to have millions of toxic spike prions clogging their vascular system and cleansing organs.  Doctors in Canada are literally being advised to consider medicating all patients who are fully unvaccinated with dangerous psychiatric SSRI drugs right now.  The College of Physicians and Surgeons put out that request in writing, suggesting anyone who denies the clot shots is suffering from mental illness.  It sounds like these doctors are all suffering from Vaccine Derangement Syndrome themselves, or they know the truth about the immune-compromising gene-mutating jabs and just want to create more patients-for-life.  So far, it's just a "suggestion," like the Covid masks at the beginning of 2020, and then the quarantines, and then the vaccine passports, and then kidney-decimating Remdesivir, and then the choke-you-to-death-in-less-than-4-days ventilators.

Ask Dr. Fauci.  In a court deposition just before Thanksgiving, Dr. Anthony Fauci had trouble remembering his response to the COVID pandemic.  As the fallout from that pandemic continues, people might remember a few things about Dr. Fauci, including his talent for evasion. [...] Anthony Fauci earned a medical degree at Cornell in 1966 but if he ever practiced medicine it was only for a short time.  In 1968, to avoid service in military hospitals, Fauci became a "yellow beret" with a cushy job at the National Institutes of Health.  Fauci's bio showed no advanced degrees in biochemistry or molecular biology but by 1984 he was heading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID).  Back in the 1990s Nobel laureate Kary Mullis, inventor of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), said Fauci "doesn't understand electron microscopy and he doesn't understand medicine.  He should not be in a position like he's in."

If lockdowns worked, why do we still need more lockdowns?  What most Americans don't know is that when coronavirus first hit China, scientists swore that strict mandates were working very well and had already "changed the course" of the pandemic. [...] If the lockdowns worked so well, why was the whole world getting sick with the Wuhan virus just months later?  And if the lockdowns worked so well, why would we need them again?  Same goes for the vaccines, the masks, the social distancing, the anti-bacterial everything, the boosters, and so on.  Could it be that it was always about coercing billions of people to take population-reducing jabs, agree to mail-in ballots for stealing elections, and loss of human rights for a permanent tyrannical government to take complete control?  Hospitals and cemeteries are now packed with the vaccinated masses.  Billions have suffered from pandemic mandates that didn't just NOT WORK, but caused irreparable harm to humans, including their health and their businesses.  The World Health Organization (WHO) and Communist China colluded to create, release, and "treat" the Wuhan Flu, while disseminating propaganda, false alarms, and health-and-economy-crippling mandates.

Justin Trudeau praises China's anti-COVID lockdown protestors — but not Canada's truckers.  How's this for hypocrisy?  At a time when celebrities, tech barons, and the White House are laying low about the gargantuan anti-COVID lockdown protests spreading throughout China, Canada's prime minister, Justin Trudeau, is loudly virtue-signalling:  [Tweet]  Trudeau, recall, just last February employed pepper spray, tow trucks, bank account freezes, Bitcoin seizures, child removals from homes, and arrests of protest leaders to end a Canadian truck strike for the exact same group of causes — vaxx mandates and continuous lockdowns, through unprecedented tactics that could only rival what the ChiCom goons and their "big whites" beating protestors into "health" are doing now.

Blinded by COVID-19 Vaccination.  There seems to be no limit on what tissues and organs can be damaged by COVID-19 vaccination.  Because lipid nanoparticles laced with genetic code for the damaging Spike protein are distributed throughout the body, bad luck may play a role with disproportionate delivery to a specific area, for example the eyes.  The eyes receive their precious blood supply from the optic artery with no backup or redundancy.  Hence, if lipid nanoparticles settle along the artery or into the central nerve taking visual signals to the brain, then inflammation fighting the foreign Spike protein will start a process of tissue damage leading to loss of vision.  Indeed, this injury pattern has been described in the medical literature and has been summarized by Dr. Elnahry from Egypt and Dr. Al-Nawaflh from the National Institutes of Health and five additional authors.

FDA Trying to Rewrite COVID History on Prohibiting Ivermectin, Dr. Atlas Says.  Boyden Gray & Associates filed a lawsuit in June on behalf of three doctors who allege that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) illegally interfered with their doctor — patient relationships, resulting in harm.  They also claim that the FDA broke the law when the agency issued statements prohibiting the use of ivermectin to treat COVID-19.  In response to the lawsuit, lawyers for the FDA claimed that its guidance for people to "stop" taking ivermectin for COVID-19 was informal and just a recommendation; as such, they weren't mandating against it.  However, in an interview that aired on NTD's "Newsmakers" on Nov. 23, Dr. Scott Atlas, a senior fellow in health care policy at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, confirmed that the FDA did, indeed, take an "unprecedented" approach against ivermectin and said that their defense amounts to the FDA trying to rewrite COVID-19 history.

Three COVID-19 questions Dr. Fauci needs to answer.  Uprisings in China against the failed "Zero COVID" strategy pushed Dr. Anthony Fauci's retirement from the headlines, but the two events are interconnected.  Despite never having been elected to anything, the 81-year-old Fauci has imposed his iron will on Americans for nearly three years.  After a half century on the taxpayer dole, he has become highest-paid employee in the federal government, overseeing the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and its $6 billion budget.  The incoming House Republican majority would be wise to shed light on Fauci's efforts to undermine the practice of medicine during the pandemic.

Flight Attendant Suffers Heart Attack, Dies Mid-Flight.  A Gulf Air flight attendant suffered a fatal heart attack mid-flight, prompting the plane's captain to make an emergency landing.  The incident happened on a flight from Bahrain to Paris while the plane was traveling at an altitude of around 34,000 feet.  "Yasser Saleh Al Yazidi fell ill after the seven and a half hour Gulf Air flight took off from Bahrain," reported British newspaper Metro.  The plane made an emergency landing at an airport in Erbil, Iraq, where medics transported the fallen flight steward to a nearby hospital.

Renowned Oncologist Sends Urgent Letter Calling to End COVID Vaccine Program Immediately.  Dr. Angus Dalgleish, a renowned oncologist practicing in the UK, recently wrote an open letter to the editor-in-chief of the medical journal The BMJ, urging the journal to "make valid informed consent for COVID vaccination a priority topic" because cancers and other diseases are rapidly progressing among "boosted" people.  Angus George Dalgleish, 72, is a professor of oncology at St George's, University of London, best known for his contributions to HIV/AIDS research and is one of the most sought-after doctors in London.

23-Year-Old Paramedic Dies After Being Found in Cardiac Arrest After Crashing Ambulance into Traffic.  23-year-old paramedic Nicholas Theofilis died late Sunday night after he was found in cardiac arrest after crashing the ambulance he was driving into traffic in the Pittsburgh neighborhood of Shadyside.  Two other vehicles were hit, resulting in multiple injuries.  There was no patient aboard the ambulance, however a passenger in front was seriously injured.

Elon Musk Drops Data on Banned Accounts, Makes Massive Policy Change.  Elon Musk recently said he would release data related to past banned accounts, and he's done just that.  On Tuesday, Musk released publicly a report that explains how many accounts were banned due to supposed COVID-19 "misinformation."  He then dropped a bomb of a policy change, making it official that Twitter will no longer ban anyone for expressing varying opinions on the coronavirus. [...] This feels like a victory over two years in the making because it is.  So many accounts on Twitter were banned over that period because they dared to break leftwing orthodoxy on COVID-19.  That most commonly took the form of suggesting the virus came from a lab in Wuhan, China, a theory that now has more evidence for it than against it.  Many were also banned for questioning the necessity of things like vaccine mandates and passports, since proven pointless, with suggestions about the vaccine's efficacy becoming the third rail no one was allowed to touch.  It's astonishing to think back on just how many things weren't allowed to be said that have now been shown to be probable, if not true.

Dr. Fauci Can't Remember Basic Facts About the Pandemic, yet He Still Shows up on TV.  On Sunday [11/27/2022], Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared on Face the Nation to wag his finger at Americans about their holiday plans.  The idea that he was going to exit stage left after his final press conference was too much to hope for.  In his appearance, Fauci once again ignored basic principles of immunology to advocate for his preferred totalitarian policies.  When Margaret Brennan asked him whether or not schools would have to close coming out of the holidays, Fauci went into weasel word mode.  "I don't know, Margaret, I am not sure.  When you talk about shutting down schools, there is always the collateral effects."  Fauci must be referring to the devastating learning loss that may impair a generation of children and hit low-income students the hardest.  He continued, "So you have to balance, and you do it in real time depending on the viral load of disease in your region."  It appears Fauci is suggesting school closures as a preventive measure to stop transmission.  It is almost like COVID-19 taught him nothing.

Language warning!
Four nefariously managed events meant to harm us.  [#1] Covid-19.  How is it that we don't know for sure how this organism came into the world, or understand what ensued after it did?  Answer:  the people who caused it to happen in the Wuhan lab have been busy covering their [tracks] for three years, and successfully so.  Yet we know exactly what Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, Peter Daszak, Ralph Baric and others did.  The paper trail in correspondence and patents alone is clear.  We just can't seem to do anything about it.  We don't know why they did it yet, too, but there are plausible guesses.  Maybe Dr. Fauci wanted to cap his long, checkered career with a final heroic triumph:  the introduction of world-saving mRNA vaccines — incidentally, a great financial boon to himself and the pharma industry he secretly served.  Like everything else Fauci worked on for forty years, this experiment ended in disaster:  a Frankenstein disease that persists in the population and vaccines that maim and kill people.  How did Fauci and company get away with it?

Another cardiologist calls for halt to COVID shots.  An Australian cardiologist has called for halting the use of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines after seeing a rise in heart conditions he believes are caused by the shots.  The conclusion by Dr. Ross Walker of Sydney came after two prominent cardiologists — Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Aseem Malhotra — publicly stated the best explanation for the "sudden and unexpected" deaths and cardiac events in otherwise healthy people is the COVID-19 vaccines.  Daily Mail Australia, which reported Walker's concern about the vaccine, reported the case of 18-year-old Monica Eskandar, who was rushed to a hospital with "terrifying chest pains" just hours after her first COVID vaccination.  Diagnosed with pericarditis, she was forced to miss the exams Australia requires to pass secondary school.

As an Oncologist, I Am Seeing People With Stable Cancer Rapidly Progress After Being Forced to Have a Booster.  Covid no longer needs a vaccine program given the average age of death of Covid in the U.K. is 82 and from all other causes is 81 and falling.  The link with clots, myocarditis, heart attacks, and strokes is now well accepted, as is the link with myelitis and neuropathy. [...] As a practicing oncologist, I am seeing people with stable diseases rapidly progress after being forced to have a booster, usually so they can travel.  Even within my own personal contacts, I am seeing B cell-based disease after the boosters.  They describe being distinctly unwell a few days to weeks after the booster — one developing leukemia, two work colleagues Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and an old friend who has felt like he has had Long Covid since receiving his booster and who, after getting severe bone pain, has been diagnosed as having multiple metastases from a rare B cell disorder.  I am experienced enough to know that these are not the coincidental anecdotes that many suggest, especially as the same pattern is being seen in Germany, Australia and the USA.  The reports of innate immune suppression after mRNA for several weeks would fit, as all these patients to date have melanoma or B cell based cancers, which are very susceptible to immune control — and that is before the reports of suppressor gene suppression by mRNA in laboratory experiments.  This must be aired and debated immediately.

Fauci: "We need to keep politics out" of investigating origin of COVID.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is retiring at the end of the year.  Yea! Fauci is doing media interviews on his way out of the door full of talk about his legacy and how politics should be kept out of investigations into the origins of COVID-19. [...] Remember when we were initially told the medical community needed two weeks to flatten the curve and get a handle on overcrowded hospitals?  Then that turned into indefinite lockdowns and mandates.  Before we knew it, we were living in an authoritarian country, not living as free Americans.  The more power the administration got, whether it was Trump or Biden, the more it wanted.  If Trump carries through with his plan to run for president in 2024, he will have to answer for his decisions on national lockdowns and mandates (like face masks and social distancing) the same as Biden will.  Politics reared its ugly head early on in the pandemic.  To his credit, Trump cleared red tape and eased as much bureaucracy out of the way as he could to get things done.  We were grateful when a vaccine was available in record time, though now it is looked upon as a mixed blessing, due to reports of side effects and even deaths due to reactions to the vaccine.  But to act as though some decisions were not political in nature is ridiculous.

Pants on Fire: The Many Lies of COVID Tyrant Fauci Revealed in Deposition Leaks.  While the people of China wage an open rebellion against the draconian COVID-zero policies being reinstated in many provinces, here in the U.S. we're getting a clearer idea of how much our own lockdown-loving COVID tyrant, Anthony Fauci, lied to us.  Yes, his retirement from the federal government is looming — a gig that earned him a ton of money and way too much power — but we're not done with him yet.  He needs to answer a few questions before he rides off into the sunset.

The Real Emergency Isn't Covid — It's Unexplained Excess Deaths.  We have pulled vaccines for much less.  Prominent UK cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malholtra recently gave a lecture, "Has Big Pharma Hijacked Evidence-Based Medicine?" Dr. Malholtra was a strong vaccine advocate, but no longer.  He has evidence to back it up.  "We have pulled vaccines in the past for much less; we have got the highest-level quality of data, saying this is 1 in 800 at least... this vaccine needs to be suspended completely," he says in this clip.  [Video clip]

What's Causing All These Excess Deaths?  [Scroll down] Shockingly still no one is talking about this.  This isn't just a Canada thing.  Excess mortality is up in every heavily vaccinated country even when adjusting for COVID deaths.  There seems to be a real emergency going on here and it's not COVID.

Fury over China's insane, endless COVID lockdowns exposes the idiocy of President Xi.  "Need human rights, need freedom," chanted hundreds of protesters Saturday night in Shanghai, along with "Don't want Covid test, want freedom!" and "Don't want dictatorship, want democracy!"  Plus demands for President Xi Jinping to "step down."  Xi's insane "Zero COVID" policies and the endless severe lockdowns they require are a disaster for the nation.  And the protests show they're helping turn China's people against Communist Party rule.  Police moved in at 3 a.m.  Saturday night to shut down the Shanghai protests, but hundreds returned on Sunday, now chanting "Release the people" of those arrested hours earlier.  Beijing, Nanjing, Guangzhou and other cities across China saw more protests — mostly triggered by news out of Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang in the far west, where 10 people died in an apartment-building fire and Chinese social media lit up with charges that the city's lockdown made rescues and escapes harder.

Young, Healthy Korean Streamer Dies Suddenly During Livestream.  If you've watched the horrifying 'Died Suddenly' documentary, you would have seen a portion of the movie dedicated to what the Internet now refers to as the 'Death Twirl.'  In an eerie pattern now seen in dozens of videos, young, healthy individuals seem to start looking up and twisting like a corkscrew with an expression of pain and horror.  It's as if the horrific ghost of death has found them and is circling above them.  This Korean streamer does the exact same series of motions before crashing through a glass table and dying.  [Video clip]

Pfizer CEO rebuked by UK watchdog for 'misleading' statements on Covid vaccine.  You might think that an official rebuke of Pfizer's CEO for misleading the public on the benefits of its Covid vaccine would be big news, especially given the full-court press by vaccine absolutists to compel people to receive the shots, but even with a Google search, I have not yet seen any US media coverage of a starling rebuke delivered to Pfizer CEO Dr. Albert Bourla by a panel convened by the UK Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA).  The criticism followed remarks he made in a December 2021 interview with the BBC.

Dr. Nepute Was Absolutely Correct — New Study Confirms Vitamin D Provides Protection Against COVID Death.  Dr. Eric Nepute is being sued by the Federal Government for promoting the use of Vitamin D against COVID-19.  A new study has found that he is absolutely correct.  We reported on Dr. Nepute's suit with the federal government a week ago.  He is being sued for $40,000 per violation where Dr. Nepute told the world that they should take vitamin D and zinc to help them deal with COVID on any level.  Yes, that's right, he told people to take vitamins and the government is suing him for doing so.  In total, the government is suing him for over 12 million instances where his advertisements were heard.

COVID Lockdown Horror Leads to Massive Uprisings and Protests in China.  On November 23rd a fire broke out in Urumqi's Jixiang Yuan district in an apartment complex.  Because of the Chinese COVID lockdown, it is claimed the doors to the building were locked from the outside; people could not escape.  Jennifer Zeng has been documenting the story on Twitter.  Fire trucks were not permitted to get close enough to the building and the people locked inside could not escape.  Chinese media initially said 10 people were killed; however, it was widely believed the death toll exceeds that number with a 3-year-old included.  The current death toll stands at 44 victims.  This horrific event seems to have become the inflection point for a large uprising against the Chinese Communist Party and the continual COVID lockdown rules.

Halt Vaccination of Young People Until Vaccine-Linked Myocarditis Is Studied: MIT Professor.  Retsef Levi, a former Israeli military intelligence officer, an expert in risk management and health systems, and a professor at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Sloan School of Management, coauthored a paper that found a 25 percent rise in heart attack emergency calls among young Israelis after the country's rollout of the COVID genetic vaccine.  Levi argues that there is enough data from this and various other studies on the vaccine's adverse heart effects, to stop its use and run a thorough investigation into why many once-healthy young people suffer or die from heart inflammation after being vaccinated.

Medical 'experts' struggle to explain Africa's very low Covid vaccination and death rates.  Even in the face of data showing that Covid "vaccines" do not prevent transmission of the virus but do cause extremely high rates of adverse events to be reported, the US (and much of the world's) medical establishment remains fully committed to pushing universal vaccinations.  The G20 meeting recently included plans for a global vaccine passport that would prevent international travel by those who have resisted the pressure to receive the spike protein-laden jabs, and many august institutions of higher learning such as Yale and the University of California demand that their young and (mostly) healthy students receive the spike protein dosages as a condition of study on campus.  If there is one dramatic case study that seems to upend the vaccination absolutists, it is Africa, many of whose countries are too poor to have mass vaccination programs, yet which has the lowest death toll from Covid in the world.

You'll never guess what (or who) is responsible for incidents of vaccine side effects.  By this point, you've probably seen some of the many stories making the rounds about increased awareness of potentially damaging (or in some cases fatal) side effects from the mRNA COVID vaccines.  Even the CDC has been admitting for a while now that both myocarditis and pericarditis can result, particularly in younger adult males, though they seem to play down the numbers.  Blood clots are also reported in a disturbing number of patients (mostly after getting the Johnson & Johnson shot), though it's still a tiny portion of the population, thankfully.  Enough concerns have been raised that multiple European countries have stopped offering these vaccines to all but the most elderly and at risk.  So if I were to ask you what the root cause of these side effects is likely to be, you might be tempted to say that the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are causing them, right?  Aha!  As it turns out, you would be wrong, at least according to the author of a study published in an Indian medical journal.  The author of that paper claims that the vaccines aren't to blame.  You are! That's right.  "Misinformation" about vaccine side effects is probably making some people so nervous about getting the shots that their stress levels are causing all of these side effects.

Fauci's 7-Hour Deposition: What We Know So far.  The transcript is not yet available and no reporters were allowed.  But from the Attorneys General who brought the suit, the plaintiffs in the case and their attorney, and other parties to the lawsuit against the Biden administration, we have some information about the deposition provided by Anthony "I am the Science" Fauci.  He has been the face of the pandemic response and stands accused of colluding with Big Tech to suppress dissent in violation of the First Amendment. [...] Major national media have shown no interest in getting the story.  Nonetheless, we do have information thanks to some candid tweets and an article by one of the plaintiffs.  The main takeaway is that Fauci has come down with a serious case of amnesia.  Over seven hours, reported Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, he mostly stonewalled detailed questioning by answering that he has no clear memory of details that would shed light on his involvement in speech suppression. [...] This is despite the hundreds of pages and many public statements that seem to confirm that the White House and many government agencies worked very closely with Google, Facebook, Twitter, and others, to control the narrative for the better part of two years.  And these efforts are probably ongoing.

Tear gas and pepper spray will keep you from getting Covid!
Chinese police clash with thousands protesting draconian COVID lockdowns as unprecedented civil unrest grips country.  Chinese police have clashed with thousands protesting the country's draconian COVID lockdowns — as unprecedented civil unrest gripped the nation.  Demonstrations erupted in at least seven cities — including Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou — with violence breaking out between local cops and furious protesters.  The largest demonstration appeared in Shanghai — home to 26 million residents — with many boldly demanding President Xi Jinping resign.

Trudeau testifies he never called unvaccinated Canadians disparaging names.  While testifying under oath before the Public Order Emergency Commission today, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau denied ever calling "unvaccinated" Canadians names, despite referring to the vaccine-free as "misogynists" and "racists" who deny science just last year.  "I did not call people who are unvaccinated names," said Trudeau in response to a question from Freedom Convoy lawyer Eva Chipiuk.  [Tweet]  Chipiuk, pressing Trudeau on the issue, made reference to the now "widely published comments" he made last year "calling the unvaccinated racist and misogynist."  "And we have heard testimony in this inquiry about how some of your officials wanted to label protesters as terrorists.  Would you agree with me that one of the most important roles of a prime minister is to unite Canadians and not divide them by engaging in name-calling?" asked Chipiuk.

The Left's COVID Social Credit System Proceeds Apace.  Acreature spawned by the pharmaceutical-industrial complex in conjunction with Democratic politicians and bureaucrats, the Left's COVID social-credit system refuses to wither away in the face of real science.  The Left has spent too much time and energy fearmongering and browbeating the public into submitting to coercive COVID vaccine mandates.  As a recent spate of events demonstrates, the Left's COVID social credit system proceeds apace, though the pandemic abates.  Simply, the Left recognizes the vast majority of individuals who oppose mandatory COVID vaccinations are not Leftists.  And there is no room in the Left's warped world of unreality for any dissenters.  Ergo, the Left uses the permanent pandemic's COVID mandates to identify and cancel its opponents.  Thus, according to Fox News, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention "voted to add coronavirus inoculation to the Vaccines for Children Program.  The inclusion does not make the shots mandatory for children but places it on a list of recommended vaccinations the CDC provides to physicians."

Top Cardiologist Calls for End to mRNA COVID-19 Shots After Seeing 60-70 Patients Suffer Heart Conditions.  A top Australian cardiologist called for an end to the use of mRNA COVID-19 shots after seeing a rise in jab-related heart conditions.  "Getting Covid is ten times worse than getting vaccinated — but we don't need to use mRNA vaccines like Pfizer and Moderna," cardiologist Dr. Ross Walker told Daily Mail Australia.  "We have to put COVID in perspective where it is right now, not where it was 12 months ago, because it has changed and I think we are seeing a change."  The Australian doctor explained he has seen patients experience adverse reactions with symptoms lingering "about three to six months after" receiving mRNA shots.

Dutch politician Nilüfer Gündoğan, Who Called For The Unvaxxed To Be Thrown In Prison, Shows Off Her Bell's Palsey On Talk Show.  Disgusting pro-vaccine monster and politician, Nilüfer Gündoğan, who floated the idea of throwing all the unjabbed into gulags showed up on a local morning show to show off her newly acquired Bell's Palsey.  Gündoğan once suggests that the delta variant of the coronavirus could "wipe out stupidity" and refer to it as "win-win".  [Video clip]

Died Suddenly film review: It's a powerful showcase of vaccine dangers, but why is Dr. Jane Ruby missing?  The viral new film, "Died Suddenly" from Stew Peters depicts the widespread harm caused by experimental mRNA injections — so-called "vaccines" — that are killing an estimated 2,400+ Americans each day (source: Ed Dowd's excess mortality analysis based on insurance industry numbers and US Dept. of Labor numbers).  The film is getting millions of views across media platforms, including Rumble, Brighteon, Bitchute and others, while the mainstream media is going all-out to try to ban the film or attack its key message.  Stew Peters is to be congratulated for having the courage to document this alarming phenomenon and put money behind a film effort to sound the alarm to a wider audience.

Government lies versus COVID truths.  On November 23, 2022, the very same day White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha stated unequivocally that "If folks get their updated vaccines and they get treated ... we can prevent essentially every COVID death in America," the Washington Post reported a CDC-financed study showing that by August 2022 more people were dying from COVID who had gotten the jab than those who had not. [...] In other words, Jha was lying, and he was doing so in plain defiance of the data that has been accumulating exponentially in the past year.  The COVID shots do nothing to prevent you from getting COVID, and the data now shows that these shots also do nothing to prevent the virus from killing you.  (This ineffectiveness is why the shots are not a vaccine, and why legitimate journalists, doctors, researchers, and politicians should stop calling them that.  At best, the jab is the equivalent of a flu shot, which might help but often does little to prevent the flu.)  Unlike flu shots, which have been administered to older people for decades and have been found to cause little harm, the jab is increasingly being linked to serious chronic health problems, and now should not be taken without very careful consideration.

Oh, So That's the New Argument to Bring Back Mask Mandates.  Dr. Anthony Fauci's reign of terror is finally ending next month when that demented little elf finally retires, leaving an ugly legacy of distrust, science fiction, and outright lies.  Fauci has been one of the go-to experts on infectious diseases, but COVID has imbrued what was once considered a sterling record of public service.  Fauci and his cronies have done more to erode the public trust in our institutions, and it was all over a virus with a 99.8 percent survival rate.  They treated this as a super Ebola pandemic.  None of the doomsday projections regarding the death rate came true, and their containment protocols were based on shoddy data or outright falsehoods.  And they're responsible for the appalling regression in math and reading scores as these medical fascists shut down schools, triggering a secondary mental health crisis among teenagers that has yet to reach its peak.  Now, these same people want to bring back mask mandates and social distancing over concerns about so-called long COVID, that's government-speak for we want to control you again.

Fauci: I'm a Bureaucrat, Not a Scientist.  As we noted earlier, Anthony Fauci was deposed yesterday in the First Amendment lawsuit brought by the states of Missouri and Louisiana. [...] I am reminded of Richard Nixon, who during the Watergate travail counseled one of his aides to testify that he couldn't remember anything.  That way, Nixon explained, they can never go after you for perjury.  The extent to which a witness can get away with amnesiac testimony depends largely on whether enough documents have been produced to pin him down.  In this case, my impression is that the government's production has been skimpy.

The CDC lied and children died: Now come the lawsuits.  A watchdog group called Protect the Public's Trust is urging the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) inspector general to investigate the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) over the misinformation it spread that cost thousands of children their lives during the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) plandemic.  Drs. Katherine Fleming-Dutra and Sara Oliver massively overstated the number of children who supposedly died from the Fauci Flu in order to push face masks and "vaccines," which harmed and killed even more children, Protect the Public's Trust claims.  Had the CDC told the truth all along, children never would have been locked down, deprived of schooling, and in some cases, forced to take an experimental injection to reprogram their DNA and flood their systems with nanoparticles and other poisons.

Secret CDC Report reveals at least 1.1 Million Americans have 'Died Suddenly' since the COVID Vaccine roll-out.  The Covid-19 injections were meant to reduce the sudden surge of deaths the USA recorded in 2020 due to the alleged Covid-19 pandemic.  But unfortunately, the official figures prove that the opposite has happened.  Official reports quietly published by the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) confirm that over 6 million Americans have died ever since the U.S. Food & Drug Administration granted emergency use authorisation to a Covid-19 vaccine in December 2020; with 2021 being a record-breaking year for deaths.

Washington Post writer, who beat kidney cancer 10 years ago, dies of hyper-aggressive, post-injection kidney cancer.  Last month in an article about the DCIS ("cancer") and depression RICO rackets, we wrote the following:  "If you received the injections and previously had some sort of cancer, now is a good time to update your will and cross off bucket list items."  We also wrote about Washington Post editor, Mrs. Neema Patel, last month.  She died from hyper-aggressive, post-injection gastric cancer on October 24.  She was a vaxx zealot, which is required to work for the Washington Post.  The newspaper has had an employee vaccine mandate since September 2021.  It could be sheer coincidence that a second relatively young WAPO employee has succumbed to hyper-aggressive cancer in as many months.  But truthphobia will prevent these mainstream media puppets from ever reporting the truth, even as their colleagues are continually dying and being maimed.

Doctor: Police put me in psych ward for COVID 'misinformation'.  A Swiss cardiologist with a doctorate in immunology and virology who has held a private practice for 24 years says police forcibly took him to a psychiatric ward to be examined for mental illness in response to his public criticism of COVID restrictions, mandates and testing he argued were unscientific.  On April 9, 2020, Dr. Thomas Binder posted to his blog an analysis of COVID-19 and the government's mitigation efforts that received 20,000 views.  He hoped it would prompt action, but two colleagues alerted the chief of state police, claiming Binder was a threat to himself and the government.  On the day before Easter of 2020, he was confronted outside his home by about 60 armed police officers, including 20 with the canton of Aargau's anti-terrorism unit, ARGUS.

D.C. Public Schools to Force Coronavirus Tests After Thanksgiving.  Washington, DC, public schools will require that all students and staff test negative for the coronavirus before they are allowed to come back from Thanksgiving break.  "To support a safe return from Thanksgiving break, all students and staff are expected to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test," the district website reads.  "Families should test their students and upload test results... on Sunday, November 27."

Even WaPo Admits That Covid Is Now a Pandemic of the Vaccinated.  Last week, Dr. Anthony Fauci spoke at what many of us fervently pray is his last official press conference.  After botching the HIV epidemic in ways that are part of the public record, Fauci was allowed to bring Covid tyranny down on much of the nation in the name of "public health" for over two years.  He achieved this by encouraging containment measures never used in modern history and gaslighting America about everything from cloth masks to the efficacy of experimental vaccines.  So, it is only fitting that he ended his leadership of the Covid response by lying to Americans again.

Twitter explodes after MSNBC health columnist calls to cancel Thanksgiving, postpone Christmas.  Prominent Twitter users erupted into a series of arguments after an MSNBC health columnist floated the idea of canceling Thanksgiving and moving winter holidays to prevent illness.  On Wednesday, Dr. Esther Choo, a professor of emergency medicine at Oregon Health and Science University, gave her thoughts on how to prevent respiratory illnesses, such as COVID-19 and RSV, during the holiday season.  She tweeted that "for so many reasons" Thanksgiving should be canceled, winter holidays should be moved to the summer, and winter holidays should be more "hygge," or cozy.

The Editor says...
I challenge you to find hygge in any dictionary, by which I mean a big dusty old book with a lot of definitions and pronunciations.  It's not only obscure, it isn't even a valid Scrabble word.

Are you connecting the pandemic dots yet?  In mid-March 2020, we got the gift of a 5-alarm virus, one that nobody had noticed during its first four to six months of spread.  The terror of COVID began when it was suddenly hyped as dire and deadly.  From nothing, it came to dominate all the news.  Nobody was more quoted than Doctors Fauci and Birx.  The race to spread gasoline on the fire had begun.  But there was always a method to the madness.  Remember the shortage of ventilators?  The governors who housed COVID-infected in nursing homes with the elderly?  We created the pandemic to sustain the panic, with specific aims in mind — aims that the COVID opportunists have achieved.  For example, it was of paramount importance that Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine were thwarted before they were seen as widely effective in treating COVID (and, by the way, thanks to FTX for funding that study) — imperative so that an emergency use authorization for the "vaccine" was justified.  It also allowed them to push Remdesivir (a killer drug that was known to destroy people's livers and kidneys and that didn't help with COVID).  Families were prevented from being present as their loved ones were sacrificed, hooked up to useless ventilators, and fed that drug against all common sense. [...] On to part two.  The "vaccine."  How better to achieve the globalist aim of reducing the global population?  We're learning that the mRNA "vaccine" is a flawed substance that introduces spike proteins that wreak havoc with our bodies by interfering with the immune system, invading the circulatory system, and weakening the heart.  The results of this campaign are starting to manifest now.  Nowhere in memory have I seen the type of now-daily reports of people in their prime just dropping dead.

The Lancet bows down to the COVID cult.  As a postscript to the recent article by Emily Oster in the Atlantic, the COVID Cult is still at it, with no signs of letting up.  Oster asked for pandemic amnesty for authoritarian leaders and their eager supporters during "The COVID Years," but she never actually apologized.  We expect such behavior from the Atlantic, a publication no longer taken seriously by anyone but the most dedicated true-believer leftist.  We don't, however, expect that sort of intellectual dishonesty from one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world, but evidently the Lancet is now stooping down to their level.  After two years of the mRNA shots, with the evidence mounting daily that they are neither safe nor effective (search for athletes dropping on the field or teens having heart attacks), how is it that those who insisted that we follow the science still refuse to actually follow the science?

He said this two days before Thanksgiving.
Anthony Fauci Urges Americans to Get COVID Tests Before Thanksgiving: 'Everybody Should Be Vaccinated'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is urging Americans to get tested for the Chinese coronavirus prior to attending Thanksgiving gatherings, adding that "everybody" should not only be vaccinated but boosted as well.  Fauci spoke on Tuesday [11/22/2022] for his last White House press briefing before stepping down and ended his stint by declaring that "everybody" should be at least triple jabbed, receiving the regular vaccine series as well as a booster shot.

Airline Pilot Suffers Suspected Heart Attack During Takeoff, Later Dies.  The pilot of a Chicago flight bound for Columbus, Ohio, passed out suddenly after takeoff Saturday evening, prompting a co-pilot to make a return flight back to the airport.  The pilot, who was a captain in training for American Airlines subsidiary Envoy Air, later died at the hospital, according to reports.  In an audio recording of the interaction with air traffic control, the co-pilot is heard relaying, "We need to return.  Captain is incapacitated... he's knocked out.  We're going to need paramedics."

People Dying in Their Sleep Linked to Vaccines, Explains Dr. Peter McCullough, Cardiologist.  At a conference for medical professionals in Sedona, Arizona this past weekend, several speakers — all physicians — commented on a disturbing trend: an increase in otherwise healthy people dying in their sleep.  Sudden unexplained age-inappropriate deaths seem to be happening more than usual, both in the United States, where these medical doctors practice, and in several other countries in the industrialized world.  Excess death "is a phenomenon all over the world at the moment," said Dr. John Campbell, a nurse educator who has been meticulously following and commenting on the scientific data for his YouTube channel, which has 2.47 million subscribers.  The data shows that "deaths are 16 percent higher than we would expect," Dr. Campbell said in a recent video, "and the vast majority of these are not COVID deaths."  Statistics tell part of the story.  Unusual deaths making headlines tell another part.

How many lives could have been saved by aggressive use of vitamin D alone?  It has always been an unsettling thought: What if our government, instead of obsessively pushing policies that were all pain and no gain — masks, lockdowns, remdesivir, and mRNA gene therapy — had aggressively promoted daily supplementation with vitamin D?  Well, a new study of vitamin D treatment lead by a Johns Hopkins researcher purports to show at least 116,000 people could have been saved, and those numbers are likely a fraction of the overall benefit with a preventive regimen of vitamin D to elevate serum levels above 50, not to mention numerous other safe supplements and therapeutics that could have been used.  To determine the association between vitamin D3 and D2 supplementation and COVID-19 infection and mortality, the U.S.-based researchers conducted a retrospective cohort study identifying 220,265 VA patients supplemented with vitamin D3, 34,710 supplemented with vitamin D2, and 407,860 untreated patients both before and during the period of the pandemic.  The top-line results were that those veterans supplementing with D2 were associated with a 28% lower chance of testing positive for COVID and those supplementing with D3 were 20% less likely to test positive.  But the more important results were the reduced mortality from COVID-associated death, with D3, the most common vitamin D supplementation on the market, resulting in a 33% reduction in mortality.

The vaccinated now account for a majority of COVID deaths.  There's a remarkable concession appearing in The Washington Post today:  "a majority of Americans dying from the coronavirus received at least the primary series of the vaccine."  The latest data shows that 58% of COVID-19 deaths in August 2022 were from people who were vaccinated or boosted.  Based on past figures and the current trends, we can reasonably estimate that the number of vaccinated/boosted COVID-19 deaths will only rise.  (In September 2021, the vaccinated accounted for 23% of COVID-19 deaths; in January/February 2022, the vaccinated were 42%.)  This is what happens when you rush ineffective and dangerous vaccines.  The FDA's promises of efficacy — 91% for the Pfizer vaccine and 93% for the Moderna vaccine — were always based on hope, not data.  So too were the promises of safety.

Tucker Carlson Brings Up a Very Important Point After Fauci's Disaster of a Final Press Conference.  The White House Press Corp is a place where embarrassment is pretty much the only course on the menu, but every now and again you see what can only be described as a smorgasbord of cringe and self-owns.  As RedState reported on Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre got defensive to the point of yelling at reporters after Dr. Anthony Fauci was asked a simple question about the origins of COVID by the Daily Caller's Diana Glebova.  It was yet another moment that informed the public of quite a few things.  For one, Jean-Pierre is wildly inept at her job.  Secondly, they really don't want you asking Fauci the hard questions.  Thirdly, something is really strange about the origins of the COVID virus and the White House really doesn't want people asking about it.

For the "crime" of promoting vitamin D during covid, a Missouri doctor faces $500 billion in FTC fines.  The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) wants half a trillion dollars from Dr. Eric Nepute, a Missouri doctor and chiropractor who allegedly violated the COVID-19 Consumer Protection Act by telling people they could take vitamin D and zinc in order to stay healthy throughout the plandemic.  Because Nepute also sold vitamin D and zinc — many chiropractors sell vitamins and dietary supplements to patients who want them — the FTC is accusing him of committing fraud.  "The federal government is suing me for half a trillion dollars ... for telling people to take vitamins," Nepute says about this latest political circus and abuse of taxpayer dollars by the feds.  Nepute's case is scheduled to go to trial in Missouri federal court next March.  A jury will decide if the FTC's 27-page complaint against him, which was issued in April 2021, holds any merit.

'Died Suddenly': Documentary shining light on fibrous clots goes viral.  A new documentary called "Died Suddenly" has received more than three million views in less than 24 hours.  [Video clip]  The documentary was produced by the Stew Peters Network and was released on Rumble.  Throughout the film, the viewer is shown various testimonials of embalmers from around the English-speaking world who all attest to a proliferation of fibrous clots found in the veins of numerous deceased individuals who were vaccinated with an experimental COVID jab.  One of the embalmers profiled in the film, Robert Hirschmann, will be familiar to viewers who have followed the mounting testimony about the strange clotting.  Hirschmann has been public about his experience with the fibrous growths in the deceased for months.

Major News on Vaccinated COVID Deaths, but the White House Decides to Lie Anyway.  For years, the COVID-19 vaccines have been pushed as a magic elixir, so potent and effective that they warranted being forced onto the population by way of government mandates.  Even after it became clear that the vaccines didn't stop the spread of the coronavirus, thus eliminating their communal benefit, the White House and some Democrat-led states marched on, stubbornly promoting them and other nonsensical policies like vaccine passports.  Unfortunately, things have not gotten better with time.  Dr. Anthony Fauci delivered his supposed final press conference on Tuesday, and White House COVID Czar Ashish Jha opened things up with this ridiculously false claim.  [Tweet]

TV reporter collapses during live broadcast.  A reporter at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Egypt passed out during a live broadcast, drawing global attention amid an apparent rise in reports of otherwise healthy people collapsing and in many cases dying "suddenly" or "unexpectedly."  Julie Yoo, reporting Nov. 9 for Channel NewsAsia, was "feeling a little unwell due to dehydration and low blood sugar," according to her employer, Singapore-based Mediacorp.  [Video clip]

A sweet goodbye to 'The Science'.  Today, I heard a goodbye that was music to my ears, even symphonic.  Dr. Anthony "Phony Tony" Fauci said goodbye to the nation as White House chief medical adviser.  While "good riddance" might seem to apply, this departure is so much more than just some pest or repulsive individual leaving.  No, this is the departure of a man who, more than any other, did irreparable harm to the citizens of this nation.  His child victims will spend the rest of their lives trying to make up for his mendacious machinations.  Many adults have been ruined financially and have no hope of recovering.  I have made no secret of my distaste for Dr. Fauci.  I hold him personally responsible for his contribution to the death of my brother, a death that he had the power to prevent or certainly delay.  His cavalier attitude, clearly demonstrated over three and a half decades ago, has only grown in pious certainty of his infallibility and self-proclaimed "I am science."  Having spent more than half a century in a health profession, I can say that had I encountered a man of this gigantic, bombastic arrogance in a position of authority in my chosen profession, I would have found another line of work.  Fortunately, while thinking quite highly of themselves, my dental school professors never crossed the line of self-proclaimed divinity, which Fauci has repeatedly done.  The man has no shame.

Tucker Carlson Calls Out Fauci For 'Lying About COVID'.  Fox News host Tucker Carlson called out Dr. Anthony Fauci Tuesday evening for "lying about COVID" and failing to answer questions about the virus's origins following Fauci's last press briefing at the White House before his retirement.  "When the COVID pandemic began in early 2020, everyone wanted to be Tony Fauci.  We did and had him on the show, actually, and then he started lying in ways so obvious that you could not ignore it, you began asking what is this about?  The guy in charge of the COVID response is lying about COVID, why?" Carlson said.  "He lied about herd immunity, then he lied about masks, then he repeatedly lied about vaccines.  You can't lie if you're a public health official, but he kept doing it.  Today, Tony Fauci, who is now 81, held his last press conference and appropriately enough, he decided to tell one final lie about masks."

Exclusive: 'Sometimes I feel I Am Damaged for Life,' Says Woman Injured by Pfizer Vaccine.  It took only a couple of minutes for her to feel the waves of heat, followed by a feeling of faintness.  "I immediately felt like my life was in danger, something was really wrong with me," said Sandra Ortiz.  That's how Ortiz described her reaction to receiving her first and only dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on May 26, 2021.  Ortiz, now 54 years old, is a mail carrier in Arlington, Texas.  In an exclusive interview with The Defender, she described her initial injuries and ongoing symptoms.  She provided extensive documentation to corroborate her claims.

They lie to you without remorse.  With Anthony Fauci's departure from the government imminent, there has been a lot of praise for both Fauci and the public health establishment.  Most of it self-congratulation, because that is how those at the top of the public health establishment pyramid roll.  But there has been plenty of eulogizing Fauci by all factions within the Establishment as well.  One of the figures who has been stepping up to the plate to hit the softballs aimed at him by the press is Dr Ashish Jha, the White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator.  He is a real piece of work, and a worthy propagandist to fill the shoes of Dr. Fauci once he leaves the scene.  Fauci gave his last COVID briefing today, at which Dr. Jha spoke as well.  Both were, of course, pushing vaccines.  In this case the newer bivalent booster.  In doing so Dr. Jha let rip with a real whopper, for which there is precisely zero evidence:  if a person gets the bivalent booster and contracts COVID, nobody will die.  Assuming they get Paxlovid as well (Dr. Jha is practically a salesman for Paxlovid, pushing the Pfizer drug every chance he gets).  [Tweet]

Chaos Erupts in White House Briefing As Fauci Delivers His 'Final Message'.  During Tuesday's White House press briefing, Karine Jean-Pierre brought not only cookies to share with the press corps but also Dr. Fauci, who she praised as "a source of information and facts" before offering a eulogy-sounding recap of his career to introduce him for what Jean-Pierre said was his "last run at the podium."  Jean-Pierre seems to have conveniently forgotten that Fauci advocated for school closures early in the pandemic, advised against buying masks initially, withheld information from Americans he thought we couldn't handle, and joined Biden to demonize Americans who chose not to get vaccinated.  Still, it's hard to believe that Tuesday might actually be the last official White House briefing room edict from Fauci ahead of his retirement from government next month.  In terms of his "final message," Fauci delivered exactly what we've come to expect from him over the past few years.

A Global Passport for Vaccines and Carbon Tracking.  This agreement actually was first codified in the spring of 2021. This was covered in a Forbes article, written in May 2021, entitled "Vaccine Passports: World's 20 Biggest Economies Give Go-Ahead."  This 2021 article states that:  "The G20 meeting — where the world's biggest economies meet to make decisions — took place Tuesday, and members decided to throw their weight behind vaccination passports, as a means of boosting the global travel and tourism economy."  Somehow, this decision by the G20, made over 1.5 years ago, that vaccine passports would become mandatory within a short period of time managed to escape media attention.  Now, of course, it is almost a fait accompli.  Of note, many countries have now pledged hundreds of millions, if not billions to the development of such a passport.

Cardiologists Come to the Same Conclusion Regarding COVID Jab Side Effects.  Until the British cardiologist, Dr. Aseem Malhotra, expressed grave concern about the safety of Covid mRNA vaccines, he was one of the most celebrated doctors in Britain.  In 2016 he was named in the Sunday Times Debrett's list as one of the most influential people in science and medicine in the UK in a list that included Professor Stephen Hawking.  His total Altmetric score (measure of impact and reach) of his medical journal publications since 2013 is over 10,000 making it one of the highest in the World for a clinical doctor during this period.  In the early days of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout in Britain, he advocated the injections for the general public.  However, in July of 2021, he experienced a terrible personal loss that caused him to reevaluate the shots — namely, the sudden and unexpected death of his 73-year-old father.  His father's death made no sense to him because he knew from his own examination that his father's general and cardiac health were excellent.

COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates: 21 Scientific Facts That Challenge the Assumptions.  ASSUMPTION #1: The COVID-19 vaccines significantly reduce the spread of COVID-19, so high universal vaccination rates will prevent outbreaks and end the pandemic.  FACT 1: A study of a COVID-19 outbreak in July 2021 published in Eurosurveillance found that "all transmissions between patients and staff occurred between masked and vaccinated individuals, as experienced in an outbreak from Finland."  The authors state that the study "challenges the assumption that high universal vaccination rates will lead to herd immunity and prevent COVID-19 outbreaks."  FACT 2: A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study of another COVID-19 outbreak in July 2021 found that 74% of cases were fully vaccinated.  FACT 3: A Harvard study investigating COVID-19 cases across 68 countries and across 2,947 counties in the U.S. found "no significant signaling of COVID-19 cases decreasing with higher percentages of population fully vaccinated."

We're all in this together!
The Solidarity Argument for Forced Mass Vaccination Turned Out to Be False.  We now have the data in black and white from Pfizer itself:  already when the vaccines were launched, it was known that they would not protect from the spread of infection.  And yet, millions of people have taken the vaccine, mainly because of the heavy social pressure felt through the solidarity argument.  Therefore, they have also risked dire side effects, while those responsible all of a sudden deny that this absolute argument never really was crucial. [...] When a public narrative starts to fall apart, it can have unforeseen consequences.  After all, if a public official lie is exposed and people are forced to realize they have been profoundly fooled, a follow-up question may well present itself:  If they can lie about something this significant, what else have they been lying about?

Fed Judge Strikes Down Vax & Mask Mandates For Preschoolers & Workers, Calls It "Tyranny".  A U.S. District Court judge has struck down a vaccine mandate for federally-employed preschool workers, and a masking requirement for the preschoolers, in 24 states, including Wyoming.  U.S. District Court Judge Terry A. Doughty compared the vaccine and masking mandate to "tyranny."  "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few or many ... may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny," wrote Doughty, quoting James Madison in his ruling against the mandate.  Doughty's order, filed Sept. 21, forbids the U.S. Health and Human Services department from requiring Head Start preschool employees, classroom volunteers and contractors working with children and families to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19.  The mandate also required preschoolers ages 2-4 to wear masks in preschools nationwide.

Data: Alcohol deaths 'exploded' during pandemic.  Deaths caused by alcohol use have been climbing in the United States for nearly 20 years, but rose dramatically at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.  According to data released Friday by the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, alcohol-related deaths increased by 26% from 2019 to 2020, rising from 10.4 deaths for 100,000 people in 2019 to 13 for every 100,000 people in 2020.  "What's a word bigger than crisis?  What was already a crisis, has exploded," Marvin Ventrell, chief executive officer of the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers, said to CNN.

The Masked Ball of Cowardice.  "Lockdowns," the mass quarantine of both sick and healthy people, have never before been used for disease mitigation in the modern Western world.  Previously, the strategy had been systematically ruled out by the pandemic plans of the World Health Organization (WHO) and by health experts of every developed nation.  So how did we get here?  Mass lockdowns of entire countries as a technique for fighting disease sprung into the world's consciousness on the order of Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), who fomented a global propaganda offensive targeting Western governments and media.  Within weeks, the WHO, an organization that once devoted itself to fighting disease and which has sadly become a tool of Chinese foreign policy, promulgated lockdowns into global policy through a series of press conferences that showed a complete absence of analysis or logic.  The world has been fighting a virus from China with a public health policy from China that transforms the world into China.  But if the national security community has noticed this bizarre development, they haven't said so.

COVID-19 Pandemic Policy And Mistakes.  The infection fatality rate is the number of deaths divided by the number of infections.  Early 2020 estimates of the IFR for COVID, for example, ranged from 0.17 to 1.7% and are considered high.  John Ioannidis and others recently reported a median IFR of 0.095% for the 0 to 69-year-old population.  This was based on data from 29 countries and included publicly available COVID death data and age-stratified seroprevalence information.  Also, several studies published last year have suggested that the death rate of COVID may be similar to the death rate of the flu.  These include a study in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases and another in the International Journal of Epidemiology.  Likewise, early estimates of the case fatality rate (CFR) for COVID — deaths divided by the number of cases measured by positive tests — were high.  A March 2020 assessment of the CFR in The Wall Street Journal questioned initial estimates of 2 to 4% as too high by orders of magnitude.  Why the changing numbers?

Dr Fauci is set to make his final White House briefing today.  The United States' top infectious disease expert Dr Anthony Fauci is set to make his final appearance at the White House today [11/22/2022] before retiring, after years of pushing lockdown, masking, and vaccination orders on millions of Americans.  Fauci, 81, will join Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre for his final health briefing, where he is poised to discuss his National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases' progress on vaccinations — and new actions to increase those numbers.  The appearance will likely be the top doc's final time at the podium, before his planned retirement at the end of the year.

The Truth About Ivermectin.  Ivermectin has been hailed as a "wonder drug" and, according to the UNESCO World Science Report, a critical component of "one of the most triumphant public health campaigns ever waged in the developing world."  However, since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and affiliated health authorities have vociferously recommended against ivermectin as a potential treatment for the virus.  Though the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved ivermectin for human use in treating conditions caused by parasites, it has also insisted that ivermectin "has not been shown to be safe or effective" when it comes to treating COVID-19.

G20 Pushes Vaccine Passports For All Future International Travel.  The G20 has issued a formal decree promoting vaccine passports as preparation for any future pandemic response in its final communique.  Indonesian Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin, speaking on the matter on behalf of the G20 host country, had earlier in the summit called for a "digital health certificate" using WHO standards.  Sadikin advocated for that he dubbed a "digital health certificate" which shows whether a person has been "vaccinated or tested properly" so that only then "you can move around".

FDA tries to weasel out of ever claiming it told people not to take ivermectin.  Well, now we know why there was all this sudden amnesty talk going on to coddle and excuse COVID's tyrants. [...] Obviously, they're on the hot seat.  They mocked and abused anyone trying to take ivermectin on an emergency off-label basis during a pandemic as stupid horse-paste abusers, evoking the specter of those who sniff glue or take TidePods to get high, to the extent that they put out public service announcements brimming with schoolyard-style scoldings on Twitter.  Such as this one, here:  [Tweet] [...] Context is important here.  The mocking meme came in response to testimony from famous podcaster Joe Rogan who stated that his doctor-prescribed ivermectin regimen against COVID worked very well for him, killing his COVID case dead in a matter of days.  It also came as word from less-developed African countries, along with India and Peru, were able to stop mass deaths through the use of ivermectin, sometimes actually from the horse paste, given those countries' lack of health care on a mass basis and their agricultural orientation.  It was an effective stopgap measure that even taken haphazardly managed to saved millions of lives.

Looking back at Canada's plan to tax the unvaccinated.  Back in January of this year, the Canadian province of Quebec announced a plan to impose a tax on the unvaccinated.  Officials there claimed that most of the impacts on the healthcare system were being caused by unvaccinated people and that the vaccinated should not be made to shoulder the costs.  The following month, after a large outcry from the public, the plan was scrapped.  But the government never gave up on the idea entirely.  Some are still suggesting that the plan could be retooled and brought up for consideration again.

Is Your Body the Legal Property of Big Pharma?  [Scroll down] In the shorter term, it's crucial to realize that the fast-tracking of "genetic engineering technologies and techniques to be able to write circuitry for cells and predictably program biology in the same way in which we write software and program computers" means they're going to cut corners.  Loads of them.  Testing is basically going to be done on the population at large, just as they've done with the COVID jabs.  The results of such experimentation are relatively predictable.  People will be seriously injured and many will die.  We also still don't know what the legal standing of people whose genetics are altered by RNA might be, now or in the future, since that has yet to be established.  So please, think long and hard before you agree to take any of these forthcoming gene therapies, be they COVID boosters or any other "vaccines."  They're not vaccines.  They're gene transfer technologies that alter your DNA.  They're part of the transhumanist agenda, the Fourth Industrial Revolution — and remember, transhumanism is a eugenics agenda.

Authorities Looking Into Oregon Report That Falsely Claims Sky-High Child COVID-19 Hospitalization Rates.  Authorities in Oregon say they're looking into a report they published that falsely claims sky-high COVID-19 hospitalization rates among children.  "We are working with the company that completed the report, Rede Group, to look into that data question," Jonathan Modie, a spokesman for the Oregon Health Authority, told The Epoch Times in an email on Nov. 19.  Modie said authorities would be able to provide an update as early as Monday.  The report in question was produced by a firm called the Rede Group as a contractor to the health authority, as outlined in a Senate bill that was passed this year.

Unvaccinated blood banks?  Learn about the growing movement for clean transfusions.  Swiss naturopath George Della Pietra has started a new "SafeBlood Donation" service to provide clean, unvaccinated blood for patients needing transfusions.  Since the general blood supply is now tainted with "fully vaccinated," spike protein-laden chemical blood, demand for pure blood is soaring.  Pietra apparently saw this as a great opportunity to provide clean blood, which is now more in-demand than ever.  Calling the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) mass injection campaign "the crime of the century," Pietra believes that messenger RNA (mRNA) covid shots "contaminate" the blood and destroy the immune system.

Americans who receive booster jab this winter will get $20 off sky-high groceries.  In what looks like an act of sheer desperation, President Biden is offering Americans a $20 discount on groceries at CVS, Safeway, Winn-Dixie, or Rite Aid this winter if they will go out and get an Omicron-specific COVID booster.  Biden received an updated booster shot for COVID three weeks ago and sent out a message beseeching Americans to do the same, according to the Daily Mail.  Most of the country proceeded to ignore the warning, having moved past the pandemic and on to other more pressing emergencies such as roaring inflation.  The laughable $20 discount being offered comes as inflation rages in the United States, driving up the cost of food and other items just in time for the holidays.  A recent American Farm Bureau report noted that Thanksgiving dinner this year will cost 20 percent more than it did last year.

Massachusetts Illegally Installed Covid Spyware on Android Users' Phones.  A federal lawsuit alleges that the Massachusetts Department of Public Health installed Covid spyware on the Android smartphones of millions of state residents to code and trace their movements without their knowledge.  The state hid the application from users, the lawsuit says, by ensuring that it did not launch a shortcut on the phone's homescreen.  The lawsuit says the move violates the federal and state constitutions, and asks for an injunction to stop the state from spying on both their residents and those from other states who also fell victim to the scheme.

Weatherman Who Took Covid-19 Shot On Live TV Now Hospitalized With Blood Clots In Lungs.  Al Roker, NBC's Today Show weatherman, explained why he has been off the air for the past weeks.  Sixty-eight-year-old Roker shared that he was hospitalized due to blood clots.  Although he is vaccinated and boosted, he tested positive for COVID in September.  Roker was an early recipient of the COVID-19 vaccine in January 2021, getting his shot on live TV on the Today Show.  [Tweet]

Lung transplant recipients develop respiratory distress and organ rejection after second dose of covid-19 vaccine.  Lung transplant recipients who receive two doses of covid-19 mRNA may suffer organ rejection and develop respiratory distress requiring supplemental oxygen and further treatment.  A study published in The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, shines a light on this serious medical issue caused by the covid-19 vaccines.  A majority of lung transplant recipients (LTR) do not respond to the first dose of covid-19 mRNA.  Short term antibody responses to the spike protein mRNA are observed after the second dose.  In this case series, three patients actually developed "new and significant respiratory compromise after their 2nd vaccine dose."  The respiratory distress was consistent with antibody mediated rejection (AMR).  The study authors wrote, "To our knowledge, this is the first published case series of vaccine induced rejection in lung transplant recipients."

FDA Says Telling People Not to Take Ivermectin for COVID-19 Was Just a Recommendation.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) telling people to "stop" taking ivermectin for COVID-19 was informal and just a recommendation, government lawyers argued during a recent hearing.  "The cited statements were not directives.  They were not mandatory.  They were recommendations.  They said what parties should do.  They said, for example, why you should not take ivermectin to treat COVID-19.  They did not say you may not do it, you must not do it.  They did not say it's prohibited or it's unlawful.  They also did not say that doctors may not prescribe ivermectin," Isaac Belfer, one of the lawyers, told the court during the Nov. 1 hearing in federal court in Texas.  "They use informal language, that is true," he also said, adding that, "it's conversational but not mandatory."

The Corporate Media's Sick Jihad Against Vitamin D.  The Public Health© biomedical regime, via its private-sector public-relations arm, the corporate media, maintains its brutal siege of all things natural medicine — most especially vitamin D*.  The vital role that vitamin D plays in human health is nearly impossible to overstate.  In fact, the term "vitamin D" is a misnomer; it's actually a steroid hormone.  Its many dozens of crucial physiological functions include — not coincidentally in the context of corporate media demonization — producing faster, fuller recovery for patients with COVID-19.

Sheila Jackson Lee Claims Reparations Could Have Prevented COVID Pandemic.  Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, claimed that if reparations for U.S. slavery had been implemented before the COVID pandemic, the virus may have been contained.  Jackson Lee made the speech on the House floor in an attempt to garner support for H.R. 40, which would establish a congressional commission to calculate the potential cost of reparations, the Daily Wire reported.  The congresswoman noted that COVID infection rates among minorities were higher than in majority-white areas.

The immunity debt and why we're sicker than usual.  Guess what happens when a population stays home from work and school to avoid communicable illness.  When they mask up, physically distance, and use good handwashing techniques to slow down the spread of viral illness.  The transmission of communicable illness decreases.  But viruses don't just go away.  They mutate and stack up in line, waiting for their chance to infect an immunologically weaker population.  We are currently "paying the immunity debt" as a consequence.  With isolation being replaced by socialization, the next-in-line viruses are spreading.  Many of us have been relatively healthy for a couple of winters.  But now we are fighting viral illness that is striking more frequently and have longer lasting symptoms than in the past.

Early-Vote Malignancy Metastasized in Midterm Elections.  The mad rush toward early voting accelerated thanks to another disease:  COVID-19.  Like so many things wrong in America today, COVID lurks just beneath the surface.  Because voting in person was "too dangerous," opportunistic Democrat lawyers sued like ambulance chasers in 2020 to widen and deepen early voting beyond its earlier, lower profile.  This year, with COVID in the rear-view mirror, 2020's "emergency" measure has become the new normal.  The Democrats' ever-leftward ratchet mechanism always works this way.  Yesterday's temporary concession becomes tomorrow's permanent civil right.  What [...] is the hurry to cast ballots before seeing the complete picture that voters face each federally defined Election Day?

Fit and Healthy 10-Year-Old Girl Dies Suddenly After Collapsing at School.  On November 9, a 10-year-old girl from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England, who appeared to be in good health, died suddenly after collapsing at school.  Rai-Léyah Parveen Saddique was rushed to the hospital last Wednesday after she suddenly collapsed during the afternoon.  According to the Daily Mail, the child fell ill while she was at school.  She was then transferred from Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield to Leeds General Infirmary but died five days later.

NBC News now admits covid vaccines may be linked to myocarditis, after years of claiming it was "misinformation".  After years of claiming covid-19 vaccines are "safe and effective," NBC News is suddenly admitting that the jabs can cause myocarditis.  NBC News published a report on November 12, 2022 that finally acknowledges the link between the covid-19 vaccines and myocarditis.  Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle.  Tens of thousands of new cases have been recorded by pharmacovigilance systems around the world.  Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough has been warning about this issue for over a year.  NBC is part of a network of corporate media outlets that take money from the vaccine manufacturers to stay quiet about serious health issues and immune failure caused by vaccines.

The Editor says...
Is that true?  Do the TV networks "take money from the vaccine manufacturers?"  YES.  The next time you watch television (if you must), notice that every commercial break in every show includes an advertisement for a prescription medicine — for you or for your dog.  That's been the case for several years.

Legacy media veil of silence on myocarditis and COVID 'vaccines' beginning to lift?  The troubling wave of heart ailments in otherwise young and healthy COVID "vaccine" recipients is finally drawing legacy media attention — albeit limited and supportive of Big Pharma.  Just two days ago, Selwyn Duke wrote on these pages of his personal encounters with victims of strange early deaths, and of some of the statistical data.  Now, NBC News, reliably supportive of the progressive ruling establishment, is acknowledging what previously was suppressed, in an article titled "Myocarditis after Covid vaccination:  Research on possible long-term risks underway."

Sen. Schumer calls for replacement of Americans who can't have babies after mRNA depopulation jabs.  Yes, you are being replaced.  Once derided as a racist conspiracy theory, "replacement theory" is not only confirmed but even touted by Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer who yesterday claimed that millions of illegals must be granted amnesty because the US population "is not reproducing on its own."  Of course, that's because so-called "vaccine" injections — actually mRNA depopulation bioweapons — are causing widespread abortions, stillbirths, infertility and deaths.  As expert analyst Ed Dowd told this reporter yesterday, post-vaccine excess mortality across the population at large is running around 32%, meaning an extra 2,400+ Americans are dying each day thanks to the mRNA jabs.  And that's on top of the 7,700 or so that normally die each day, bringing the total daily deaths in America right now beyond 10,000.  After pushing the genocidal vaccine, Sen. Schumer's claim that "we have a population that is not reproducing on its own" seems tone deaf.  Does he not realize his own vaccine mandates are killing off Americans?  (Most likely, he knows full well.)

13 Democrat Senators Revolt After Midterm Election, Deal Massive Blow to Biden's Agenda.  The U.S. Senate has voted in resounding fashion to end the Covid "public health emergency" that the Biden administration had recently extended until April 2023.  The Senate voted 62-36 to end the 'emergency' declaration on Tuesday afternoon.  The motion was spearheaded by Sen. Roger Marshall, a Republican from Kansas.  While it is unclear if the House of Representatives will immediately take up the measure, [since] Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now on borrowed time.

COVID-shot echoes: I had a most odd experience Saturday.  In "My troubling COVID vaccine story experiences," I wrote last year about how within a short period of time I met three men at the same recreational area who announced to me they'd had heart attacks.  All three had previously taken the coronavirus genetic-therapy agents (GTAs, AKA "vaccines").  Add the friend who suffered heart inflammation and the neighbor of mine who had an adverse reaction after having the shots, and it was quite a series of "anomalies."  I've had another similar experience now, too.  While in a supermarket checkout line Saturday, I got to talking to the fellow behind me, who was holding a pair of floral bouquets.  He'd bought them for two different funerals.  One was for his brother, who'd died of a heart attack — at age 24.  The other was for a friend's son who'd passed away.  I asked him how old was the son was.  "He was in first grade," the man replied.  "What happened to him?" I then queried.  The fellow said he didn't know, that the boy was found "dead in bed," he'd died in his sleep.  Having studied COVID since the "pandemic's" beginning and the GTAs' secondary effects since the drugs' introduction, you can probably guess what immediately occurred to me.  But the man was glassy-eyed and obviously grieving, and I felt it would've been inappropriate to inquire about the departed's GTA status, so I didn't.

Mother's Vaccination Status [is] Excluded From Neonatal Death Investigation.  Scotland witnessed an unprecedented and unnatural spike is neonatal death reported between September 2021 and March 2022. [...] In Scotland, the COVID-19 Injections were rolled out in December of 2020.  It is interesting how exactly nine months later there was an extreme spike in neonatal death, considering a pregnant woman's gestation period is around nine months.  This also takes into consideration the 28 day period, post-birth, where an infant's death is considered a "neonatal death".  Despite this, the investigation being launched in Scotland is deliberately excluding the mother's vaccination status from the data set.  The study will not take into consideration whether or not the mother had received one or more COVID-19 injections in these cases of neonatal death.

HHS Gives $1M to Researchers to Predict Vaccine Misinformation.  The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is giving $1 million to researchers who can predict what misinformation about vaccines might be spread on social media and how it can impact people's trust in vaccines.  The grant opportunity, "Developing a Public Health Tool to Predict the Virality of Vaccine Misinformation Narratives," will go to a single applicant to predict how "vaccine misinformation" can affect people's trust in vaccines, Fox News reported.

NBA Referees Fired for Refusing COVID-19 Vaccine File Lawsuit Against League.  Three longtime NBA referees who were fired over their refusal to receive a COVID-19 vaccine have filed a lawsuit against the league, arguing that NBA executives did not consider their requests for religious exemption.  Kenny Mauer, Jason Phillips, and Mark Ayotte filed their complaint against the NBA in a Manhattan federal court over the weekend, Outkick reported.  The three former NBA referees claim that the league illegally forced compliance with its "hygienic norms" and ruled that their religious exemptions to the vaccine did not meet the NBA's "high standard" of promoting vaccination.

4-Year-Old Boy Who Was [the] Face of Argentina's Vaccine Rollout Dies Suddenly.  The young boy who was used as the face of an Argentinian government's national vaccination campaign has died suddenly, according to local reports.  Santino Godoy Blanco was just four years old.  In the last two years we have witnessed an inexplicable surge of health ailments, including the sudden and unexpected deaths of young and healthy people.  Excess deaths are at record levels across the world — and doctors are baffled.  Santino Blanco, who hailed from the town of San Miguel, is yet another case in point.  The face of the national vaccine rollout had been unwell for a week with a high fever that persisted despite being given ibuprofen. [...] According to mainstream media, Santino Blanco's death was not in any way related to vaccines.  Given the fact the pharmaceutical industry owns and pays for the media, they wouldn't dare say anything else.

Mask mandates coming back?  As cold and flu season gets going, and COVID infections have begun to surge around the world, the COVID fascists are gearing up to impose new mask mandates.  Canada [...] is already seeing mandates reappear.  Premiers in more conservative Canadian provinces are not giving in to the pressure, at least not yet, but the mandates are popping up and the debate is raging.  The same vicious tactics are being used by the COVID idiots, but with a twist.  The RSV pandemic — caused by immunological deficits in children that accumulated during the isolation COVID policies created — is now being used as an additional excuse to keep kids unexposed to germs.  This is profoundly stupid[. P]ediatric ICUs are getting filled up by children suffering from diseases that normally would cause less severe illness, and the solution is not to keep children permanently isolated from the world.  But this is apparently the new normal for Leftists who benefit from creating hysteria and sacrificing the well-being of children.

Surgeon who operated on young Italian vaccine victim: 'You have never seen anything like this'.  Camilla Canepa was operated on by Gianluigi Zona, director of the neurosurgical and neuro-traumatological clinic of the San Martino hospital:  "I had never seen a brain that was affected by such an extensive and severe thrombosis."  The neurosurgeon on duty in San Martino that night was Alessandro d'Andrea, who also called the chief physician to his side at the operating table.  "We decided to have a decompression craniotomy, in which the skull is opened to relieve internal pressure."  Zona recounted the experience:  "All venous sinuses were blocked with thrombi, a scenario I have never seen in my many years in this profession.  Think of the venous sinus as the river in the middle of a valley where several streams converge.  If a dam is built in the middle of the watercourse, the river swells and the tributaries can no longer drain at this point, so that the pressure rises upstream.

Canadian doctor believes two-thirds of vaccinated could die of heart failure.  Canadian doctor Charles Hoffe believes that the mRNA vaccines manufacture microscopic blood clots in the capillaries of the vaccinated and at least 60 percent could eventually succumb to heart failure.  Hoffe, who practices medicine at Lytton British Columbia, explained:  "We now know that only 25 percent of the 'vaccine' injected into a person's arm actually stays in your arm.  The other 75 percent is collected by your lymphatic system and literally fed into your circulation so these little packages of messenger RNA, and by the way in a single dose of Moderna 'vaccine' there are literally 40 trillion mRNA molecules.  "These packages are designed to be absorbed into your cells.  But the only place they can be absorbed is around your blood vessels and the place where they are absorbed is the capillary networks — the tiniest blood vessels where the blood flow slows right down and where the genes are released.  Your body then gets to work reading and then manufacturing trillions and trillions of these spike proteins.  Each gene can produce many, many spike proteins.  The body then recognises these are foreign bodies so it makes antibodies against it so your are then protected against Covid.  That's the idea."

10-Year-Old Boy Died of Cardiac Arrest 7 Days After Moderna Shot, VAERS Data Show.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) today released new data showing a total of 1,458,322 reports of adverse events following COVID-19 vaccines were submitted between Dec. 14, 2020, and Nov. 4, 2022, to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S.  The data included a total of 31,961 reports of deaths and 265,274 serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time period.

2022 Ivermectin Research Study Shows Modern Medical Research Can Be Propaganda, Not Science.  Medical research is supposed to be non-biased and professional to insulate legitimate scientific inquiry from personal and financial interests.  The recently published "Effect of Ivermectin vs Placebo on Time to Sustained Recovery in Outpatients with Mild to Moderate Covid-19" shows the consequences of erosion of scientific integrity by political and financial biases.  The study, performed between June 2021 and February 2022, concluded that Ivermectin was no better than placebo (sugar pills) for treating mild to moderate Covid-19 illness in outpatients.  Touted as the definitive protocol to silence Ivermectin promoters, the article was published in the American Medical Association's journal JAMA on 21 October 2022.  Without explanation, the AMA did not allow online comments on the publication.  The media predictably hyped the article and simultaneously continued to criticize the drug, something it had done since early 2020.  CNBC published "Ivermectin — a drug once touted as a Covid treatment by Conservatives — doesn't improve recovery much, clinical trial finds" 3 days after the publication was released online.  The second-in-command of the trial, Dr David Boulware, has shown contempt for Ivermectin before, during, and after the study.

Myocarditis after Covid vaccination: Research on possible long-term risks underway.  In October 2021, Da'Vion Miller was found unconscious in the bathroom of his home in Detroit a week after receiving his first dose of Pfizer's Covid vaccine.  He had known something was wrong:  Then 22, he had started experiencing chest pain two days after getting vaccinated, followed by fatigue, shortness of breath and dizziness.  Miller was rushed to Henry Ford West Bloomfield Hospital, where he was diagnosed with myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle, and pericarditis, an inflammation of the outer lining of the heart.  His doctor advised him not to receive a second dose of either the Pfizer or the Moderna vaccines.

Who benefits from a perpetual "emergency?"  Not you!
Biden Regime To Extend Covid Public Health Emergency Through Spring of 2023.  The US is extending the Covid public health emergency through the spring of 2023, a Biden administration official said on Friday according to CNBC[.]  The decision was made because public health officials say they are expecting another Covid surge this winter as 'people gather more indoors where the virus spreads easier[.]' [...] The HHS has continually extended the public-health emergency since its implementation in January 2020.  "Covid is not over.  The pandemic is not over," one senior Biden official said.  "It doesn't make sense to lift this [declaration] given what we're seeing on the ground in terms of cases."  The declaration allows the US to grant emergency authorizations for drugs, vaccines, and other medical countermeasures.

Young Actress Dies Suddenly of 'Unexpected Natural Causes'.  British actress Emily Chesterton has died suddenly and unexpectedly, her family announced this week.  She was in her early 30s.  "Dear family and friends, It is with heavy hearts that we have to announce the passing of our dear Emily," her family posted to her Twitter account. "Due to unexpected natural causes, Emily passed away surrounded by her family."

While jabbering in fierce defense of Trudeau's "vaccine" mandate, Trudeau's lawyer keels over.  And seven other videos of people "dying suddenly" or just collapsing, in the US, Lebanon, Brazil, India (3) and maybe elsewhere, too.  [Video clips]

Two young athletes [are] the latest to 'die suddenly'.  A former NFL defensive tackle and a champion motorcycle racer are the latest examples of apparently healthy people dying suddenly amid evidence the COVID-19 mRNA shots are causing serious heart damage at a rate exponentially higher than for previous vaccines.  There was no report that 35-year-old Keith Farmer, a four-time British champion, and 45-year-old Adrian Dingle, who spent five seasons with the San Diego Chargers, took the COVID vaccine.  However, citing the available scientific evidence, prominent cardiologists — including Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Aseem Malhotra — believe the best explanation for the "sudden and unexpected" deaths and cardiac events in otherwise healthy people is the COVID-19 vaccines.  Dingle apparently showed no signs of ill health when he recently was with former Charger Marcellus Wiley, a former ESPN host.

The Confinement of the Healthy.  COVID-19 represents the first time in the history of pandemics that we confined healthy populations.  While the ancients did not understand the mechanisms of infectious disease — they knew nothing of viruses and bacteria — they nevertheless figured out many ways to mitigate the spread of contagion during epidemics.  These time-tested measures ranged from quarantining symptomatic patients to enlisting those with natural immunity, who had recovered from the illness, to care for the sick.  From the lepers in the Old Testament to the plague of Justinian in Ancient Rome to the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, lockdowns were never part of conventional public health measures.  The concept of lockdowns arose in part from a public health apparatus that had become militarized over the previous two decades.  We now routinely hear of "countermeasures," but doctors and nurses never use that word, which is a term of spycraft and soldiering.

As COVID Spike Proteins Slowly Take Toll on Endocrine System, Expert Warns of Rise in Hormone-Related Diseases.  Dr. Flavio Cadegiani, a Brazilian endocrinologist, suspects that the worst has yet to come for spike protein-induced diseases in the endocrine system.  The endocrine system, colloquially known as the hormone system, is critical for our health.  It regulates growth and development, mood, metabolism, reproduction, immunity and functions of other organs through the secretion of hormones.  Hormones are one of the three biggest messengers in the body.  Compared to the two other messengers — neurotransmitters and cytokines — hormones are slower in responding, and have systemic functions across the body rather than localized actions.  While cells can usually respond to neurotransmitters in milliseconds and cytokines in minutes to hours, cells that respond to hormones can take hours or even weeks.

I Used To Think School Vaccine Mandates Made Sense, But The Covid Jab Changed Everything.  As Democrat-run state legislatures consider requiring Covid shots for children to attend school, many parents like me are looking back at how their perspective on vaccine mandates has changed over the past two years.  If you had asked me three years ago why the government should mandate vaccinations like the chickenpox and the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccines in order to attend school, I would have argued that vaccine mandates are a valid exercise of government authority to protect the "public health," since unvaccinated people can spread the disease to others, particularly those too medically fragile to receive vaccinations.  I would have appealed to "herd immunity" and called most anti-vaxxers "irresponsible" or "selfish."  I now believe vaccine uptake should rise and fall based on the merits of the shots, not government pressure or mandates, for two reasons.  First, it is wrong to coerce people to inject themselves or their children with a product they do not believe benefits them.  To violate someone's bodily autonomy so they can enjoy the same rights, liberties, and entitlements as others, such as air travel or public education, is in itself a harm.  It is tyrannical.

3 Years After Covid Started, Why Don't We Have Answers About The Likely Lab Leak?  Why don't we know the origins of Covid-19?  It's been nearly three years, and even after scientists have analyzed millions of virus sequences, have taken samples of thousands of animals, including hundreds from the Wuhan market where the virus first is alleged to have broken out, we still haven't discovered the proximal cause of the pandemic.  It is strange, to say the least.  In November of 2002, a SARS outbreak erupted among restaurant workers handling live animals in a "wet market" located in Shenzhen, China.  Not long after the initial outbreak, the disease went international.  By May 2003, Chinese researchers found a virus in palm civet cats at the market that was nearly identical to the pandemic virus.  This virus, SARS-CoV, fizzled out after causing 8,000 cases resulting in 800 deaths worldwide.  But the virus currently in question is believed to have caused nearly 1 billion cases and possibly 20 million excess deaths, and we are still searching for answers.  Why?

We Won't Forget.  They celebrated our deaths and danced on our graves.  With recent calls for "Pandemic Amnesty" from the groups who destroyed lives and businesses, closed schools, stripped away your freedoms and turned family, friends and neighbors against each other, the unvaccinated and truth tellers find themselves in a pickle.  Morality and civility could argue that we should forgive those who vilified us for choosing medical sovereignty, non-compliance with unconstitutional mandates, and simply questioning the narrative, but it's not that simple.  Some "pro-vaxers" may have been legitimately uniformed or scared to blindly follow health guidelines and government mandates without question.  But the mob mentality to demonize the unvaccinated and gaslight society into thinking we were the problem crossed a potentially unforgivable line. [...] There are endless examples of hatred and contemptible acts towards the unvaccinated over the past two years, but to relish in their death is abhorrent.  The data and information are now clear that the vaccines did not work as promised and the propaganda machine was lying.

COVID Amnesty?  How About Unconditional Surrender?  Brown University professor Emily Oster has created quite a stir with her recent article asking for a "pandemic amnesty."  In it, she calls for "both sides" in the COVID debate to forgive each other so we can focus on solving current problems. [...] Unfortunately, though, professor, you appear to have learned virtually nothing.  You speak as if the COVID battles were some kind of mutual misunderstanding that degenerated into an ugly rift.  This is yet another slap in the face.  There was nothing mutual about it, not in terms of misunderstandings or malevolence or power or persecution.  Though many of us counseled against COVIDian madness, my side was content to let you and your fellow travelers wear a mask, or three masks; take a genetic-therapy agent (GTA) shot, or five; social distance by six feet, or 60; shut down your businesses and lock yourselves indoors for one month, or six; and generally behave like mysophobic Chicken Littles.  But that wasn't good enough.  Not only did you impose your mask empire and distancing fancies on us, but you shut down our businesses as part of a COVID regulation regime; destroyed livelihoods; impoverished people; caused untold numbers of lockdown-induced, secondary-effect deaths; and tried coercing us into taking the GTAs under pain of career destruction, firing tens of thousands of Americans who resisted your will.  Why, CNN medical analyst Dr. Leana Wen, cheered on by millions of you and speaking for many more, actually said that people such as me, GTA realists, should be prohibited from participating in society and banished to our homes.  You also censored us when we dared explain our dissent, said we were killing people and impugned our character and patriotism.

A Lost Small Town.  [Scroll down]  I forgive you, Millerton movie theatre.  Your owner, who was interviewed just before the pandemic, saying lovely things in a local paper about how the revamped theatre would enhance the local community, posted a sign in 2021 saying that only vaccinated people could enter.  You needed to really look for the fine print to see that you could walk through those doors, if unvaccinated, but only with a PCR test.  I forgive the young ladies who worked behind the popcorn counter, for telling me that I could not enter further.  That I could not sit down, with other human beings in my community, to watch a film alongside of them.  I forgive the young ticket taker for telling me that I had to go back outside, onto the sidewalk.  I could not even stand in the lobby.  I forgive these young people who just wanted jobs, and who had to discriminate in the most heinous and scarring way — scarring to me, and to them too no doubt — just to keep their jobs.  I forgive them.  I forgive them for the mortifying scene they had to cause.  I forgive the movie theatre owner for shouting at me defensively when I questioned this policy.

The FDA is not your doctor.  [Scroll down] ["]As a general matter, the FDA has no authority to regulate the off-label use of drugs.  It never has.  That dates back to the — to when the FDCA was first passed in 1938.  It's been a repeated consideration by Congress.  They have never given the FDA that authority.  Going so far as to add a provision in 21 USC 396 to expressly prohibit interference, courts across the entire country have repeatedly relied upon that provision to show that — to show that it applies to the practice of medicine, including the prescription of drugs.  The government is trying to frame this case and its actions and its response to reports about the use of animal ivermectin.  That doesn't explain why they then pivoted to talk about human-use ivermectin.  There is a disconnect in what they are claiming the justification for these actions were and what they actually did.["]

Pfizer Never Even Tested mRNA Shots For Transmission Of Virus.  The destruction of the world was based on the biggest 100% falsehood in the history of medicine: Pfizer NEVER tested mRNA shot for blocking transmission of COVID-19 before it got EUA from the FDA. Billions were forced to take mRNA shots based on this lie.  Millions are permanently vaxx injured or worse, dead.  Contact tracing, vaccine passports, the Great Reset: all unnecessary and based on a lie.  Where is the outrage?  Where are the handcuffs?  We should be hearing massive apologies and retractions from all media, all politicians, all medical personnel and all "Karens" that it was a sham from the beginning.  Our nation was literally destroyed by these charlatans.  People lost jobs.  Businesses were destroyed.  Churches were shut down.  People died alone in nursing homes, without their families and loved ones.

The Editor says...
Keep this experience in mind.  Sooner or later, the government will ask us all to set aside our rights just for a few days to combat some invisible (likely artificial or fictitious) enemy.  Don't buy it again.

If You Want Forgiveness, Emily, Here's Your Program.  The suggestion printed by the WEF-loving, pro-war lefties at The Atlantic is that they and their global team of unscientific lemming-like nanny-state bullies — just possibly — were a bit misinformed (not their fault) in 2020/21 regarding masking, untested genetic injections, and actual death rates, etc (not their fault).  This bully squad accepted without question the lies their government told them (not their fault).  They not only eagerly, but radically and angrily defended and promoted those lies (partly their fault).  They hope we understand that it wasn't entirely their fault, and that they are still smart and educated.  They really just wanted to live and survive a flu-like disease with a death rate comparable to any other bad flu — and their nagging and incoherent jammering and name-calling was just so we also wouldn't die — unless we refused the experimental free required shot and continued to live our lives and try and keep our businesses open, then if we died it was kind of funny to them.  Their excuse was fear, but in reality it was not fear at all, and nor was it hate although it looked like it.  It was contempt from Day One.

The Merits of Pandemic AmnestyThe Atlantic would like to "declare a pandemic amnesty."  Stepping outside her field of expertise, Brown University professor of economics Emily Oster implored, "We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID." [...] Unfortunately, her article nowhere expresses remorse for the unconstitutional and illegal medical tyranny perpetrated on Americans.  Oster never explores what the superior recourse of accountability would entail.  Most medical tyranny was political in nature, so it is left to voters to provide recourse at the ballot box.  For sure, there were totalitarian zealots pushing mandatory shots, lockdowns, preferential medical care for coronavirus patients, capacity limitations, curfews, social distancing, and mandatory masking.  But there were many other fellow travelers unwilling to acknowledge either the concept of limited government or our constitutional rights.  Dr. Anthony Fauci should be investigated for criminal infractions of pharmaceutical stock ownership in tandem with his advocacy of government mandates.  Ill-gotten gains should be forfeit and penalties assessed, as appropriate.  There should be criminal investigation into whether Fauci lied to Congress under oath.

Covid Update: What is the truth?  [Scroll down] Dr. Lindsay Weaver, Indiana's chief medical officer, stated that hospitalizations in Indiana are higher than at any point in the past five years.  This is of critical importance since the vaccines were supposed to significantly reduce deaths, but the opposite has happened.  Hospitals are being flooded with vaccine complications and people in critical condition from medical neglect caused by the lockdowns and other pandemic measures.  A dramatic number of these people are now dying, with the spike occurring after the vaccines were introduced.  The lies flowing from those who have appointed themselves as medical dictators are endless.  First, we were told that the lockdown would last only two weeks, they lasted over a year.  Then we were told that masks were ineffective and did not need to be worn.  Quickly that was reversed.  Then we were told the cloth mask was very effective, now it's not and everyone should be wearing an N95 mask and before that that they should double mask.  We were told there was a severe shortage of respirators, then we discover they are sitting unused in warehouses and in city dumps, still in their packing crates.  We were informed that the hospitals were filled mostly with the unvaccinated and later found the exact opposite was true the world over.  We were told that the vaccine was 95% effective, only to learn that in fact the vaccines cause a progressive erosion of innate immunity.  Upon release of the vaccines, women were told the vaccines were safe during all states of pregnancy, only to find out no studies had been done on safety during pregnancy during the "safety tests" prior to release of the vaccine. [...] The national media told the public that the Pfizer vaccine had been approved and was no longer classed as experimental, a blatant lie.  These deadly lies continue.  It is time to stop this insanity and bring these people to justice.

Costa Rica authorities end search in plane crash that killed Gold Gym's owner Rainer Schaller and his family; flight data reveals near-certain #Vaxxident.  Official FAA and National Transportation Safety Board ("NTSB") accident data are typically a year behind.  We won't know official 2022 numbers until late 2023.  Further, the federal government will never admit a plane crash was a #vaxxident.  The pilot could receive an mRNA injection right before takeoff; and the cockpit voice recorder could capture the pilot with slurred speech before losing consciousness (a thud onto the yoke) and crashing.  The federal government would still deny the injections had anything to do with it in that scenario.  Educated, non-biased speculation is the ad interim methodology here, utilizing all available data.  For instance, two sources (one data scientist and one air traffic controller) told The COVID Blog™ that they've noticed statistically-significant increases in Squawk 7700 ("mayday") transmissions in 2022.  But that's still not enough to definitively conclude an uptick in small plane fatalities.

Pfizer Appears to have Corrupted the Entire Western World.  [Video clip]  The short clip above is important because Christine Anderson is getting at an important point, which must be researched.  There is evidence that Pfizer and Pfizer's CEO Albert Bourla have corrupted government leaders worldwide.  That this corruption is deep and wide.  ["]The people have been lied to.  It was a gigantic lie.  And on this lie, everything that governments, especially in the Western democracies did to infringe on people's rights, to take away their freedom, to lock them in their homes, imposing curfews, all of this was based on that gigantic lie.  Ursula von der Leyen, EU Commission president is now under a lot of pressure, and rightly so.  The people have a right to know what went on in these contracts with her exchange of SMS with CEO Pfizer, Bourla.  The people need to know who they can hold responsible and accountable for whatever may have gone on behind the scenes.  Things are changing now, their house of cards is tumbling down, and it is doing so rightfully.["]

The Unforgivable Request for Shamnesty.  The actions taken by Emily Oster — who had the narcissistic temerity to write the "Let's Declare a Pandemic Amnesty" — and her many many over-credentialed, under-educated power-mad brethren over the past 30 months cannot be given a pass.  What happened during the pandemic was obviously more than a one-off drunken party moment.  Having tee many martoonis does not compare to the whirlwind of destruction the COVID reaction caused.  Massive educational degradation.  Economic devastation, by both the lockdowns and now the continuing fiscal nightmare plaguing the nation caused by continuing federal overreaction.  The critical damage to the development of children's social skills through hyper-masking and fear-mongering.  The obliteration of the public's trust in institutions due to their incompetence and deceitfulness during the pandemic.  The massive erosion of civil liberties.  The direct hardships caused by vaccination mandates, etc. under the false claim of helping one's neighbor.  The explosion of the growth of Wall Street built on the destruction of Main Street.  The clear separation of society into two camps — those who could easily prosper during the pandemic and those whose lives were completely upended.

Board-Certified Obstetrician cries "STOP".  This IS the greatest medical disaster in the history of obstetrics and all of medicine.  I testify that this unwarranted experimental gene therapy was NEVER indicated in pregnancy and was perpetrated unlawfully and with falsified data.  Res ipsi loquitor.  Facts speak for themselves.  It was known by Schadlich et al as early as 2012 that the lipid nanoparticles (LNP) concentrate in the ovaries of mice and Wistar rats.  The FOIA request of the Japanese Pfizer biodistribution studies absolutely confirmed:  within 48 hours the "vaccine" was immediately absorbed into the blood stream and concentrated in the ovaries 118-fold by 48 hours and the trajectory of the concentration would have risen even higher had the animals not been sacrificed at 48 hours.  This experimental therapy may have permanent damaging effects on the human genome for multiple generations and makes diethystilbestrol pale in comparison. [...] As argued in 2020 it was NEVER necessary in pregnancy because there were ample data suggesting that alternate therapies were available, but these were suppressed, buried, and villanized by the medical industrial complex for the sole purpose of paving the way for a lucrative experimental gene therapy masqueraded as a vaccine.

Operation Pandemic Amnesty: The Biggest Con Job in Covid History.  Really, these [WEF people] lock us down, force us to wear face diapers, close off the beaches so we can't recover, shut down our businesses, close down the schools, coerce us to social distance/shelter-in-place/isolate ourselves/quarantine our families, order us to stop walking and exercising in public places, prevent us from visiting infirm and/or dying loved ones in every kind of care facilities and, on top of all that, cancel holidays and reunions, anniversary and birthday celebrations, weddings and funerals, baptisms and bar mitvahs, etc.  Next, the same Covid criminals roll out their COVID-19 clotshots and killshots, with no meaningful or adequate testing, and then they mandated the exceedingly dangerous and deadly injections for practically every person on the planet.

The Democrats Told Us Who They Were When They Locked Us Down.  The Democrats and their media accomplices keep telling us the Republicans are the fascists and autocrats hungry for power.  But just the opposite is true.  The Democrats themselves made it clear during the pandemic that they are the party of authoritarianism.  In the spring of 2020, this country went into a lockdown.  As Jeffrey Tucker of the Brownstone Institute has noted, government officials canceled public worship services, segregated the large cities, abolished in-person education, foisted masks on all the kids, destroyed millions of businesses, and censored speech "so that we could barely discover facts."  They shut down concerts, imposed limits on house parties, scrapped weddings and funerals, locked the elderly into their homes and blocked visitation, ended dentistry, and imposed travel restrictions across state borders, says Tucker.  Some officials, however, saw that the rules were oppressive and restored liberty in their states.  None of them are Democrats.

Countless Deaths and Collapses Caught On Video Immediately Following Poisonous Covid Injections.  [Video clip]

COVID Amnesty? [...], No!  In a recent article at the far-left Atlantic calling for a "COVID amnesty," which many found stunning in its chutzpah, Brown University "mommy economist" Emily Oster asks that we give a pass to those involved in ruining the lives of countless people and probably killing many more for years to come. [...] Better yet, as Matt Walsh and Michael Knowles noted, our best response to this trash — beyond [...], no — is military tribunals for all the little fascists who demanded lockdowns, public and private vaccine mandates, the firing of cops and firemen, ruthless mask mandates, and even the firing of active duty soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines for refusing the vaccine.  So much for "supporting the troops"!  All the while, let's not forget, the little fascists sincerely hoped everyone questioning all of the above would just die already.  So no, I'm not for "COVID amnesty."  Those responsible should be happy with life in jail and the loss of pensions and benefits.

The Editor says...
I'm no lawyer, but I can read Black's Law Dictionary, which describes people like Emily Oster in the defintion of "accessory after the fact."  If the Covid tyrants go to prison, she should be in some trouble, too.  Alas, nobody's going to serve any time in prison for Covid-era tyranny.  Fauci and Birx will probably end up with lucrative book deals and comfortable retirement.  Violent crime isn't punished in most large cities any more, and bureaucratic crime certainly isn't, unless you're a high-profile Republican.  Eternal punishment is another matter.

The Unigovernment.  A good deal of scathing commentary has been heaped on Emily Oster's terrible piece in the far-Left Atlantic on COVID amnesty, so I won't spend more time on the fundamental lunacy and — as our own Ned Ryun aptly puts it — the chutzpah of this old-new leftist idea:  That you have to let everyone off the hook for the terrible things they did because they had no way of knowing at the time that it was terrible.  ("I'm sorry I bashed your head in!  I thought it was in the best interests of society!")  Instead, I want to ask the Osters of the world a question of perspective:  Why do you suppose it is, if there were "mistakes" on all sides, that 100 percent of the pandemic "errors in judgment" went against individual freedom and liberty?  If this were an honest back-and-forth situation, where everyone was getting it wrong some of the time, you'd expect to see some big mistakes in the other direction — in the direction of not enough precaution, not enough restraint.  Instead, Oster would like us to believe, we flipped a hundred coins, and every single one came up tails.  I grant you that Oster may be hysterical and totally lacking in common sense — most tenure committees consider that a prerequisite.  But "mistakes" like this don't just happen, one after the other and all tending in the same direction, unless the people guiding society have a fundamental conviction under everything else that people cannot be trusted and that the biggest threat to good order and "progress" is the people themselves.

CNN scrambling to cover for Covid-vaccine-induced deaths across America, now blaming alcohol abuse.  First it was cold showers and referee whistles that were suddenly killing healthy athletes and military members, and now it's alcohol abuse as the cover story for the tsunami of SADS, also known as sudden adult death syndrome, due to the Covid clot shot effect.  A "global study" has revealed that it's whiskey, wine and beer that's killing off young adults in mass numbers, all of the sudden over the past two years, since the evil forced-vaccination campaign began for the worldwide scamdemic.  It must have been all that drinking during the lockdowns that started the death-by-alcohol wave.  It's all about age, specific regions and populations, the purported study claims.  Published in the journal Lancet, the risk of dying from alcohol is [highest] for adults under 40 years of age.  Wait, what?  Are we talking about crazy college parties where they compete to see what 'frat' boys and their sorority girlfriends can do the most shots?

Stillbirths are skyrocketing in the post-covid vaccination era, leaked hospital email reveals.  An employee at a hospital in Fresno, Calif., leaked an email to the media showing that stillbirth rates have been spiking ever since the introduction of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines."  In August of this year, there were 22 stillbirths at the facility, the email revealed.  And the trend is only expected to continue, it went on to state.  So far in September, there have been seven stillbirths, though at the time of reporting only eight days had passed in the month.  Extrapolated to October, we would expect the total number of stillbirths at the hospital in September to be around 40, or more than twice that of August.  Prior to Operation Warp Speed, the average number of stillbirths per month at the hospital in question was less than one.  Only about two deaths every three months were reported at the facility prior to the rollout of Fauci Flu shots.

Amnesty for J6, not covid.  [Scroll down] I opposed shutting down the economy.  I spoke out against arresting lone surfers in California and New Hampshire.  I supported HCQ.  I knew masks wouldn't stop covid.  I got the shots because of my wife's comorbidities but I told readers you do you.  Pretty much, I got it right.  Most conservatives did.  We were right.  The government was wrong.  And that is why we cannot grant amnesty because amnesty is "a general pardon for offenses, especially political offenses, against a government, often granted before any trial or conviction."  Thus, by definition there can be no amnesty.  They were not draft dodgers avoiding the Vietnam war.  They were promoters of draconian, unconstitutional and ineffective measures to fight covid.  The government grants amnesty; it does not receive it.  Make no mistake, [Professor Emily] Oster worked for the government.  Her paycheck may have said Brown or some Goldman Sachs foundation which sponsors her chair at the college.  But she did the Overlord's work by promoting policies that were at best of no use in the battle against covid.  At worst, they were unconstitutional acts dictated by a deep state hellbent on destroying and ending Donald John Trump's presidency.  She wasn't alone.  Twitter, Google, Facebook and other online entities enforced the censorship of anyone who questioned the vaccines or championed alternatives.

Ardern's Propaganda reaches the Level of Insanity; People who question vaccine safety are linked to Nazis, ISIS, Terrorism, Serial Killers, ....  A few days ago, I wrote that last year's government Covid advice about disinformation, when read today in the light of recently published science, was itself disinformation.  That night I watched 'Web of Chaos', an hour-long Television New Zealand, TVNZ, government-funded documentary compiled with the help of main players from our very own Disinformation Project.  Web of Chaos is deeply anti-intellectual, anti-religious, against medical choice, and politically biased.  Is this just a lone-wolf director giving us his opinion?  No.  It is funded propaganda.  As such, it is part of a wide-ranging ongoing government campaign to control the New Zealand public narrative.

Why you shouldn't trust CNN for any health information.  RFK Jr. wrote two really amazing articles about two of "CNN's finest": Jake Tapper and Sanjay Gupta.  Everyone should read these articles.  They are relatively short and priceless.  In a nutshell, Sanjay Gupta and Jake Tapper both spread misinformation and when confronted with the facts, they simply ignore it and continue on as if everything is OK.  Also, RFK makes a compelling case that the flu vaccine should be stopped.  It basically doesn't do anything but make the problem worse.

Amnesty for COVID fear pushers?  Forget it!  On October 31, 2022, The Atlantic published an opinion piece titled "Let's Declare a Pandemic Amnesty," with the subtitle, "Let's focus on the future, and fix the problems we still need to solve," penned by Brown University economist Emily Oster.  The article began by rehearsing a litany of social measures that were taken in response to the pandemic, highlighting the animosity that arose between opposing factions. [...] What brings about this uncharacteristic change of heart?  Why would the screeching Karens who accused anyone hesitant to accept an experimental vaccine of exacerbating the death toll suddenly decide to turn down the volume?  I have a hypothesis:  it is becoming increasingly difficult for leftists to suppress evidence that they've been wrong all along, and they know it.  When you're right, you sound the trumpet.  When you're wrong, it's "nothing to see here, folks, move along."  If we begin to see more and more conciliatory gestures from the left, it means they're transitioning to damage control mode.

Emily Oster's Plea Bargain.  By now, everybody and his uncle has seen Emily Oster's plea for "pandemic amnesty" in The Atlantic magazine, a house organ of the people in America who know better than you do about... really... everything.  Emily's wazoo is so stuffed with gold-plated credentials (BA, PhD, Harvard; economics prof at Brown U) it's a wonder that she could sit down long enough to peck out her lame argument that "we need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID."  Emily wasn't "in the dark."  She had access to the same information as the Americans who recognized that everything the public health authorities, the medical establishment, and many elected officials shoveled out about Covid and its putative remedies and preventatives was untrue, with a patina of bad faith and malice — especially when it was used to persecute their political adversaries. [...] Notably, Ms. Oster's plea for amnesty and forgiveness, showcased in The Atlantic, omits any discussion of accountability for what amounts to serious crimes against the public.  A whole lot of people deserve to be indicted for killing and injuring millions of people.  At the heart of her plea is the excuse that "we didn't know" official Covid policy was so misguided.  That's just not true, of course, and is simply evidence of the thinking class's recently-acquired allergy to truth.  The part she left out of her petition for pandemic amnesty is:  we were only following orders.

Research: Countries That Sought 'Zero-COVID' Lockdowns Have The Least Immunity.  New research has revealed the countries that implemented the harshest lockdowns as part of 'zero-COVID' policies now have the least immunity from the virus itself.  The analysis by The Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington's School of Medicine estimates that China, which still has multiple lockdowns in place, has the lowest level of immunity to COVID-19 on the planet.  Other nations that didn't institute harsh lockdowns, including Russia, Singapore and Brazil are thought to have the highest immunity levels, according to the research.

Doctors sounding the alarm: Mysterious rise in excess deaths.  Something weird is happening and it is not being covered by the mainstream media.  A large number of people are dying and doctors don't know why.  They do know one thing.  It is not only happening in one country.  It is happening in many countries at the same time.  Countries all over Europe are seeing very high excess death rates this year (meanwhile the birthrates have also mysteriously collapsed this year as well).  And many of the excess deaths are not covid related.  Norwegian doctors and hospitals are now sounding the alarm about a mysterious increase in the number of patients, and they don't have covid. [...] Norway has had a excess mortality this year that is more than 10% higher than normal.  This isn't normal!  In fact, it is so bad that demographer Anders Sønstebø at the Norwegian statistics bureau warns that the life expectancy might actually decrease this year, which would be a first since 1997.

Reverse Transcription — Permanent Installation of mRNA Genetic Code.  When we heard about Operation Warp Speed there was sense of shock and awe.  American greatness was poised to strike the "China Virus" and it was going to be defeated in a matter of weeks.  The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) created a project many years ago called ADEPT Pandemic Prevention Platform (P3) whose stated goal was to "end pandemics in 60 days with mRNA technology."  Our government has had a love affair with mRNA for over a decade for precisely a time such as the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak.  Hardly a virus from China, we have learned that Dr. Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill has been publishing on coronaviruses since the 1990's. [...] I wonder in all the DARPA and NIH meetings that occurred in the last ten years on mRNA, did they ever consider reverse transcription?  If the mRNA stays long enough in the cytosol and is not dissolved by enzymes, the human cell could find base pairs of nucleic acids and create a mirror image of the genetic code which could be brought into the nucleus of the cell for insertion into the human genome.

Democrats Declared War on Democracy Through COVID Tyranny.  Democrats lie and hope that our attention spans are short, as do their media allies.  Recently, The Atlantic published an article in which the author called for a "pandemic amnesty" and that we need to forgive each other because "we were in the dark about COVID."  Lies.  We were not left in the dark at all.  The media, Big Pharma, and Big Government all worked together to destroy our freedoms and ruin the lives of many Americans.  Not because we didn't know what COVID might do to us.  But because we were emphatically told that these tyrannical policies of eliminating church services, closing down businesses, and trying to force a national vaccine mandate was going to save lives.  There was no ambiguity in what was being promoted and for what reasons.  With inflation raging across the country, grocery bills skyrocketing, and an economy teetering on the brink of stagflation because of our asinine mishandling of COVID, we are also told that "democracy is on the ballot."  Of course, what about democracy and our rights and liberties during the COVID lockdowns?  The destruction of democracy and the erosion of social trust was far more ruinous during the pandemic lockdowns than anything else.

Control Freaks and the Guilt Trip Travel Agency.  My father taught me many valuable things.  Perhaps the most important of all of them was his statement that "you should never trust anyone who tries to motivate you using fear."  If you study the dynamics of the COVID "panic-demic," you will see that many people in high places effectively used fear to motivate and control large populations whom they deemed too ignorant to think and act for themselves.  When fear was not effective enough, they used COVID "passports," job loss, shame, and restricted access to beat the people into submission.  All of these things worked well if they could play on the ignorance of the population they wished to suppress.  Eventually, fear failed them because the vaccines were neither effective nor safe.  Guilt ("if you don't, you're putting yourself and all other people at unnecessary risk") failed them as well because the vaccines did not prevent transmission.  Eventually, they had to resort to one of the nastiest tools in the control freak's tool box:  coercion.  "You will do it because I said you must.  If you don't do it, I will punish you and make your life hell."  Sadly, that worked fairly well.

Dr. McCullough Fights to Keep his Board Certifications.  Six months ago, Dr. Peter McCullough received a letter, dated May 26, 2022, from Richard J. Baron, M.D., who is President and CEO of the American Board of Internal Medicine.  The letter was a formal notice that the ABIM was considering potential disciplinary sanction of Dr. McCullough.  As Dr. Baron stated:  ["]ABIM has learned that you have made numerous, widely reported and disseminated public statements about the purported dangers or lack of justification for Covid-19 vaccines.["]  Because of Dr. McCullough's statements — which the Board deemed to be misinformation — the Board was considering revoking Dr. McCullough's ABIM certifications in Internal Medicine and Cardiovascular Disease.  In other words, the ABIM has assumed the function of maintaining/defending the official orthodoxy of Covid-19 vaccines.  It doesn't matter that these products are based on a novel gene transfer technology, developed at Warp Speed, and deployed on the public by means of an Emergency Use Authorization.  Nor does it matter that the producers bear zero liability in the event their products cause injury or death.  According to Dr. Baron, the ABIM's understanding of these products and how the body reacts to them is a completely settled matter.  Therefore, doctors who question the safety and efficacy of these products are, in effect, committing scientific heresy and subject to disciplinary action.

My Friends are Dying of Heart Attacks.  I'm headed out to Maui to celebrate my brother's 50th birthday.  One of our oldest friends — a 53-year-old named Dan who was my roommate in graduate school — was scheduled to be on my flight, but he isn't because he died of a heart attack two weeks ago.  Both of his parents attended the funeral; both were in exceptionally good physical condition in spite of their advanced age.  Dan received the initial two doses of a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine last year, but apparently decided to forgo the boosters.  Another one of our closest friends — a 55-year-old surfing legend named Loch Eggers — was also looking forward to celebrating with us. [...] Loch also won't make it because he had a fatal heart attack last Saturday.

Dr. Fauci Will Be Deposed on November 23rd in Missouri-Louisiana Social Media Collusion Case.  The Gateway Pundit previously reported in May that Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, along with Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, filed a lawsuit (Missouri v.  Biden) against the Biden Administration, including Biden himself, Anthony Fauci, the Department of Homeland Security and nearly a dozen federal agencies and Secretaries.  The suit alleges a massive coordinated effort by the Deep State (permanent administrative state) to work with Big Tech to censor and manipulate Americans — from average citizens to news outlets — on issues including the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell, 2020 Election Integrity, COVID-19 origin and extent skepticism, COVID-19 vaccine skepticism, among other issues.

The funeral business is booming.  And not because of Covid.  How bad is the rise in mortality?  So bad funeral companies are starting to worry.  Today Service Corporation International, the largest for-profit funeral operator in North America, had its quarterly earnings call.  SCI had another great quarter, you'll be pleased to hear!  So far in 2022 the company has made almost $500 million in profits — and its stock rose more than 10 percent today after its earnings report. [...] Covid is gone.  But people keep dying.  Why?

Now the Disgraced COVID 'Experts' Want 'Amnesty'?  In her recent article in The Atlantic, a Brown University professor, Emily Oster, is calling for "pandemic amnesty."  She is telling me to "forgive and forget" everyone who was yelling obscenities at me for not wearing a mask in a public park or calling me a mass murderer for posting a picture with a friend visiting.  I must forget all this, the author insists, because all those people had nothing but my well-being in mind!  The author admits that many (if not most!) measures imposed on us by "the experts" were harmful and destructive.  But "dwelling on those mistakes" is "counter-productive."  After all, people who made these mistakes had only good intentions.  "As we now know," the author concedes, cloth masks are practically useless.  People who got vaccinated spread COVID as easily as those who did not.  Keeping children locked up at homes had disastrous consequences on their development.  And some of the COVID "mitigation" measures — like beach closures in California — were outright dumb.  But let's not "dwell" on them — because those were "complicated choices in the face of deep uncertainty."  "We didn't know!" the author laments.  After three years of living through the pandemic, the author all but admits that "the experts" were just as clueless about how to approach it as your next-door neighbor.  "The experts" did not know even the most obvious things.

America Is On The Cusp Of A Fundamental Transformation.  No matter how bad Obama's actions while in office, nothing he did compares to Joe Biden.  Since being installed as president, Biden has done an insane number of things that simply make no sense from a rational perspective.  Literally the first thing Biden did was reduce the amount of energy available to Americans. [...] Next, his administration propelled mandates for the untested vaccine that swept across the country, forcing severe post-lockdown restrictions on Americans covering travel, shopping, employment, and more.  Nationwide tens of thousands of firemen, police, teachers, and even Navy SEALS lost their jobs and incomes because of vaccine mandates for a virus with a survival rate of above 99.9% for almost everyone.  Building on that lunacy, the Biden CDC recently issued a recommendation that states require Covid vaccinations for school children even though the survival rate for ages 0-19 is 99.9997%.  So, this administration would have seventy-five million American children vaccinated with a medicine that has had no long-term testing, making the long-term effects, by definition, unknown.

You'd Better Be Prepared for the Perfect Transportation Storm.  Pete (Buttigieg) is nowhere to be found — at least not anywhere near the problems he's supposed to prevent. [...] The airline industry is plagued with cancelations and late flights.  And it's not because of climate change (bad weather) or mechanical failures.  It's because they don't have enough pilots.  When we tried to control a virus by closing the country, pilots retired, others refused to comply with the vaccine mandate and were fired, and some unknown number took the vax and found they could no longer pass their physicals.  But this time, Pete is on the case.  He's told the airlines that the Department of Transportation will fine them if they don't hire more of the pilots that don't exist.  That should light a fire under their executive tails.

Students who finished high school during COVID now failing in college.  We've already reviewed the increasingly [convincing] evidence of the impact that lengthy school closures and "virtual learning" programs had on elementary and middle school students during the pandemic lockdowns.  Math and reading skills tested at the fourth and eighth grade levels have plummeted and many children are having a very hard time bouncing back.  But there is another group of students who haven't drawn as much attention yet.  Older high school students who were in their junior and senior years of high school during the closures are now heading off to college.  (Or at least the ones who still managed to get accepted are.)  A new report from the New York Times indicates that many of those students are falling behind badly in college and some simply aren't going to make the cut.

Oops, Sorry!  They now want a "pandemic amnesty".  So we've now reached the "oops, sorry!" phase of the pandemic aftermath.  No, we're not just gonna forget about it and move on.  [Video clip]

Democrats want to avoid responsibility for COVID crimes.  Democrats are getting excited about a concept The Atlantic is proposing:  a "pandemic amnesty."  It's to be hoped that the millions of ordinary Americans damaged by the Democrats' COVID policies won't buy this proposal.  One of the things that's become apparent almost three years after COVID first hit America is that everything the left said and did was wrong.  As was apparent from the cruise ships that had COVID outbreaks in the first half of 2020, we knew from the get-go that COVID victimized old people and people with compromised immune systems, while leaving children and healthy adults almost untouched.  Nevertheless, Democrats shunted COVID-infected people into old-age homes, leading to mass deaths among the most vulnerable.  At the same time, they shut down schools, destroying children's academic development; closed houses of worship, denying people spiritual support during a frightening time; and locked up businesses, except for the big box stores, Democrat donors, alcohol purveyors, pot stores, casinos, etc., effectively destroying working- and middle-class concerns.  They lifted the shutdowns only to allow radical leftists to burn American cities.

We Need Covid Accountability, Not Amnesty.  At the beginning of 2022, I made the prediction that we would see the end of vaccine mandates and that the general populace's deteriorating tolerance for nonsense would force a pivot in how the absolutely hysterical media covered Covid.  Fast forward eleven months and the same crazed media lot, most recently characterized by The Atlantic, is now pleading for mercy from those it shunned and ridiculed during the pandemic, under the guise of asking for "amnesty".  "We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID," Emily Oster wrote this week.  Oster's plead for the decency that her ilk failed to offer up to most Americans during the throws of the pandemic comes at a point where the Covid narrative has been all but lost by the Democrats and the mainstream media.  There have been several recent large wins for the unvaccinated who had the constitution and backbone to stand up for themselves throughout a year of being constantly berated and ferociously scorned as second class citizens.  A majority of the media and Democrats had demanded that these people be removed from society and generally subject to scorn and ridicule.  Now, in a moment that many of us knew would eventually be coming, apologies are being made around the world for how the unvaccinated were treated.

More collateral damage from COVID policies.  By now everybody has heard the horror stories about learning loss suffered during the pandemic.  Shutting down schools for months or more, it turns out, wasn't such a hot idea.  Who could have guessed?  Politicians are scrambling to escape blame, parents are getting madder by the minute, and editorialists are doing their chin-stroking think pieces about how unfortunate this all is — as if they weren't at least as blameworthy for the crisis as anyone.  Yet the pediatric education crisis is only the most obvious of the many horrible consequences of the COVID fascist policies.  Doctors on the front lines of pediatric medicine are being taught a real-time lesson in reality:  immune systems work by fighting off bugs, developing defenses through exposure to bacteria and viruses.  Because of this fact, the 2+ years of making children into "bubble boys" protected from every disease has made many children defenseless against the everyday bugs that plague everybody.

We Need Pandemic Accountability, Not "Pandemic Amnesty".  The Atlantic published a piece titled "Let's Declared a Pandemic Amnesty."  It was authored by Emily Oster, Professor of Economics and International and Public Affairs at Brown University, who wants forgiveness between "one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID."  To say the response was an exceedingly robust rejection of her plea would be an understatement.  Perhaps this is the best take, underscoring that if we forgot everything that has happened since February 2020, is that such amnesty would be "toxic forgiveness."  [Video clip — Language warning.]

There's a reason why shanghai is a verb.
Shanghai Disneyland abruptly shuts over COVID, trapping visitors inside park.  Shanghai's Disneyland Resort abruptly closed Monday to comply with China's strict COVID-19 protocols, leaving visitors stranded inside the theme park.  The resort broke the news at 11:39 a.m. local time Monday, or 11:39 p.m. ET Sunday, that it would immediately shut the main theme park and surrounding areas, including its shopping street, until further notice to comply with virus curbs.  All guests were directed to stay inside the park until they returned a negative test for the virus.

Judicial Watch Sues for Records on COVID Vaccine Safety Studies.  The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after National Institutes of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (a component of HHS) inadequately responded to a June 1, 2022, Judicial Watch FOIA request for:
  •   All safety studies, data, reports, and analyses produced by the Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID) relating to the safety of 'vaccines' and/or gene therapies to treat and/or prevent SARS-CoV-2 and/or COVID-19 made by Pfizer, BioNTech, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and Janssen.
  •   All emails sent to and from the following DMID officials relating to the safety of 'vaccines' and/or gene therapies to treat and/or prevent SARSCoV-2 and/or COVID-19 made by Pfizer, BioNTech, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and Janssen:
          •   The Director of DMID
          •   The head of the Office of Genomics & Advanced Technologies
          •   The head of the Office of International Research in Infectious Diseases

Leftists Professor Writing for Atlantic Magazine Wants to Let Bygones be Bygones and Accept a "Pandemic Amnesty".  Brown University Professor Emily Oster, writing for The Atlantic wants to heal divisions created during the COVID-19 pandemic, let bygones be bygones and accept a pandemic amnesty; now that the nonsense covid positions of the professional left are shown to have been built upon lies, falsehoods and social manipulation.  Sorry, not happening.  The professional political leftists are starting to rebrand themselves as having fallen victim to the "bureaucracy of COVID", and according to those high-minded people who think very highly of themselves, we are supposed to embrace this new enlightenment from the same people who were demanding our acquiescence to their dictates and sneering at those who did not comply.  This example of "THE AWAKENING" from Brown University Professor Emily Oster is supposed to be something I am told to appreciate.  Fat chance.

One of COVID's Worst Tyrants Wants Forgiveness.  American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten is calling on Americans to grant amnesty to COVID tyrants.  [Tweet]  Given Weingarten was one of the worst offenders during the pandemic, driving parents and teachers away from public schools in droves, it's no wonder she's asking everyone to simply forget about it.  She's a main reason student test scores are in the toilet and why kids across the country have been set back for years after AFT lobbied the CDC to keep schools closed.  Not to mention the billions Weingarten extorted from American taxpayers.

CDC director tests positive for COVID-19 again after completing round of Paxlovid.  Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has tested positive for COVID-19 again after completing a round of the coronavirus antiviral treatment Paxlovid.  Walensky tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this month, going into isolation and taking "appropriate action" for her health.  On Monday, the CDC said Walensky had experienced "mild symptoms" during her infection and eventually tested negative for the virus after completing a round of Paxlovid.  "On Sunday, Dr. Walensky began to develop mild symptoms and has again tested positive.  Consistent with CDC guidelines, she is isolating at home and will participate in her planned meetings virtually," the agency said.

This article puts forth an opinion with which many of us disagree:
Let's Declare A Pandemic Amnesty.  In April 2020, with nothing else to do, my family took an enormous number of hikes.  We all wore cloth masks that I had made myself.  We had a family hand signal, which the person in the front would use if someone was approaching on the trail and we needed to put on our masks.  Once, when another child got too close to my then-4-year-old son on a bridge, he yelled at her "SOCIAL DISTANCING!"  These precautions were totally misguided.  In April 2020, no one got the coronavirus from passing someone else hiking.  Outdoor transmission was vanishingly rare.  Our cloth masks made out of old bandanas wouldn't have done anything, anyway.  But the thing is:  We didn't know.  I have been reflecting on this lack of knowledge thanks to a class I'm co-teaching at Brown University on COVID. We've spent several lectures reliving the first year of the pandemic, discussing the many important choices we had to make under conditions of tremendous uncertainty.  Some of these choices turned out better than others.

Doctor Warns: Covid 'Vaccine' Designed to Infiltrate Every Part of Your Body, 'That's Why People Are Dying'.  Insurance people and the mortuary professionals are saying we've had a death rate increase worldwide of 25 to 40 percent," said Dr. Chris Alan Shoemaker.  At two weekend rallies in Toronto, a former Eastern Ontario Covid Response Team member, Dr. Chris Alan Shoemaker, gave alarming speeches warning Canadians of the dangers of the experimental mRNA shot.  Dr. Shoemaker, a licensed Ontario physician with 45 years of experience, has worked in emergency medicine, family practice, and on military bases.  From 2020 through 2022, he worked in direct patient care at the West Ottawa Covid Care Clinic and was part of the Eastern Ontario Response Team to covid-19.  He has learned of the side effects first-hand through experience and from the data.  [Video clip]

Study: COVID vaccine injures heart in ALL recipients.  A Swiss study found elevated levels of the protein troponin in all of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine recipients it analyzed, indicating the shots are routinely causing heart injury.  Further, up to 1 in 27 of the vaccinated people in the study showed levels associated with subclinical myocarditis, the British website Daily Sceptic reported.  Similarly, a Thai study published in August found elevated troponin levels or cardiac symptoms after COVID vaccination indicative of myocarditis or pericarditis in seven (3.5%) of 200 boys.  A study published in January by the Journal of the American Medical Association based on data from the CDC's Vaccine and Adverse Events Reporting System, or VAERS, found 1,991 reports of myocarditis after receipt of at least one shot and 684 separate reports of pericarditis.

The Fauci/ Facebook Collusion That Sold COVID-19 Worldwide As A Pandemic.  Millions of lost lives later, the truth and nothing but is finally coming out on where the feared COVID-19 'Pandemic' originated — and how authorities strategically managed to keep it thoroughly suppressed.  The Big Lie of COVID — still travelling worldwide frightening the mask-wearing masses — kicked off with a deliberate 2-year-long collaboration between senior federal government official Dr. Tony Fauci and Facebook head honcho Mark Zuckerberg.

Editor-in-Chief of Renowned Science Journal Ousted for Publishing Science Questioning COVID-19 Vaccine Safety.  Dr. José Luis Domingo, who has served as editor-in-chief of a prestigious scientific journal, Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT), for the past seven years, said that he has essentially been forced to resign.  His resignation, he alleged, has come about because of gaping problems with scientific integrity and industry influence when it comes to scientific discussions about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines.  Though Domingo has himself received three vaccinations (two AstraZeneca and one Pfizer), he told The Epoch Times that he has been bombarded with insults, threats, and accusations of being "anti-vaccine" ever since he approved the publication of a scientific paper that explores potential mechanisms of harm of injected synthetic mRNA.  Though he would have preferred to stay at the helm of the journal until the end of 2023 because he has several projects pending, Domingo has issued his resignation from the journal to maintain his scientific independence.

Marxist Medical Boards Strip Top Dr. Peter McCullough's Medical Credentials for Speaking the Truth About COVID Vaccine.  One of the most respected doctors in the world and top cardiologists and epidemiologist in the country had his license revoked for speaking the truth about the danger of COVID vaccines.  Dr. McCullough is an Internist, Cardiologist, and Epidemiologist who testified to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs in November 2020.  Dr. McCullough is a cardiologist and was vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center and a professor at Texas A&M University.  McCullough is editor-in-chief of the journals Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiorenal Medicine.  He was and is an advocate for early COVID-19 treatment that included hydroxychloroquine.  He's been right about everything throughout the pandemic.

Nearly 2 in 10 cows injected with mRNA vaccine DIE almost instantly.  Dairy farmers in Australia are now being forced to inject the gene-altering mRNA vaccine that contains spike protein so they could remain in business.  Just like in humans, the experimental jabs are causing severe damage to the animals and many of them died instantly.  Independent media portal InfoWars recently reported that 35 out of 200 cows died immediately after being administered the injection.  Analysts consider the mandatory vaccination of cows as a direct attack on food supply.  Many of them are asking if the milk and other by-products would contain the spike protein that actually harmed the animals.

The COVID coverup begins to unravel.  COVID likely started circulating in China is late 2019 — now 3 years ago — and its effects have dominated our lives for 2 1/2 years.  Yet for much of that time the Establishment™ has been gaslighting us about its likely origins.  You know that.  The Establishment™ knows that you know.  And now the Senate Republicans on the health committee are laying the facts out on the table.  COVID almost certainly was released accidentally from a Chinese research lab.  It was remarkable how quickly the Narrative™ settled on the zoonotic origin of the virus, since warning signs that the virus didn't originate naturally were everywhere.  Even scientists who confidently declared in private their belief that the virus was engineered publicly stated the opposite — after having been directed to by Anthony Fauci, the keeper of the keys to the kingdom's treasury when it comes to research dollars.  Fauci in recent months has been backtracking on whether or not the virus could have been engineered, but he sure expended enormous effort maintaining the fiction that an animal origin was certain.

Top Physicians and Embalmers Reveal Patient's Shocking 'Vaccine' Injuries.  In an exclusive long-form interview for RAIR Foundation USA, Dr. Sam Dubé hosts a panel that includes a funeral home director, an embalmer, a pathologist, and a pediatric cardiologist as they bear witness to the death and misery that they are witnessing, first-hand, following the gene therapy covid-19 shot.  Discussing the theme, Sudden Death of Youth, Ryan Cole MD, an American, Mayo Clinic trained pathologist; John O'Looney, a U.K.-based funeral home director and early whistle-blower; Kirk A. Milhoan MD, Ph.D., a pediatric cardiologist with a specialty in cardiac inflammation and Glen Macko, co-host, activist and retired software engineer investigate the sudden death phenomena of people aged 10 to 40 years old.  [Video clip]

Bombshell study finds likelihood of covid having natural origin to be less than 1 in 100 million.  Yet another research endeavor has deconstructed the myth that the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) appeared out of nowhere as a random act of nature in late 2019.  A cohort of scientists from both the United States and Germany decided to take a closer look at SARS-CoV-2 using different methods than those that were already employed in earlier research looking at the unnatural origin of the virus.  What could very well become the smoking gun that leads to a solving of the case of where covid came from, the new paper, which appears as a pre-print in the bioXriv journal, confirms the presence of "endonuclease fingerprints" — endonuclease referring to enzymatic mechanisms of action — which would not otherwise be there if covid was a natural occurrence.

The Updated mRNA COVID Boosters Are a Bust, Two New Studies Show.  The new, heavily promoted mRNA booster shots from Pfizer and Moderna are not all they're cracked up to be, according to two new preprint studies.  The boosters perform no better against Omicron than the fourth jab with the original formulation," a new study from scientists at Columbia University in New York City found.  The updated Covid-19 booster shots have been advertised as "bivalent," meaning they target the original coronavirus strain as well as the Omicron BA.4/BA.5 subvariants.  However, the Columbia paper found that the newer Omicron variants easily evade both types of boosters, Alex Berenson reported on Substack.

mRNA Vaccines and EUA.  Whatever you may currently think about the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, it is a fact that more than 5.41 billion people worldwide have received a dose of some type of COVID-19 vaccine, equal to about 70.5 percent of the world population.  In the United States as of October 17, 2022, 494.74 million "initial protocol doses" of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine have been administered, together with 138.16 million "booster" doses.  265.59 million US residents have received at least one dose, and 226.59 million have completed the initial vaccination protocol (see this link), out of a total population of 335.49 million (67.5%).  In terms of the logistics of development, manufacturing and deployment of a novel injectable biologic product, this is undeniably a major achievement.

Disaster: CDC Calls for COVID-19 Vaccines on the Child Immunization Schedule.  The CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) met on October 20, 2022.  Despite the protestations of child advocates and physicians (including your humble correspondent), the committee voted unanimously to add the COVID-19 vaccines to the Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedule.  Put bluntly, the committee blew it.  Scientifically, ethically, and as public policy, this was a terrible decision — and one that, if allowed to stand, will cause irreparable harm to countless American children.

Senate Report Concludes COVID-19 Pandemic Was Likely Caused by Lab Leak in Wuhan.  An interim report from the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee Minority oversight staff released Thursday concluded that "SARS-CoV-2 and the resulting COVID-19 global pandemic was, more likely than not, the result of a research-related incident associated with coronavirus research in Wuhan, China," and declared that "the hypothesis of a natural zoonotic origin no longer deserves the benefit of the doubt, or the presumption of accuracy."  The report, which is only labeled "interim" because it cannot be final without information being withheld by the People's Republic of China, outlines and documents the exact arguments made here at RedState for at least the past 18 months as to why the natural zoonotic origin theory simply cannot be seriously considered.

NY Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul Urges Parents to Remask Their Toddlers.  New York Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul this week encouraged parents to remask their toddlers to protect them from RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), contending that children are "more socialized to the idea of wearing a mask" anyway.  "Let's talk about exactly what RSV is.  These are the symptoms.  I want parents be aware of that, usually fall and winter.  It's like a common cold, but it does hit younger children and it's really frightening," Hochul stated.  "It's not new at all.  Something we've seen before." [...] "We're not mandating this," she said, but she made it clear that she is strongly recommending parents remask their toddlers.

The Editor says...
I find it difficult to believe that one of the foremost leaders of the Abortion Party is suddenly concerned about the health and well-being of toddlers.

The Economic Disaster of the Pandemic Response.  [Scroll down] Given the failure of quarantines in 1918, they were not employed again during the disease scares — some real, some exaggerated — of 1929, 1940-44, 1957-58, 1967-68, 2003, 2005, and 2009. In all of those years, even the national media acted responsibly in urging calm.  But not in 2020, when policymakers — whether due to intellectual error, political calculations, or some combination of the two — launched an experiment without precedent.  The sick and well alike were quarantined through the use of stay-at-home orders, domestic capacity limits, and business, school, and church shutdowns.  This occurred not only in the U.S., but worldwide — with the notable exception of perhaps five nations and the state of South Dakota.  Needless to say, the consequences were profound.  Coercion can be used to turn off an economy.  But given the resulting trauma, turning an economy back on is not so easy.

CDC director Walensky is Infected with covid, after taking five covid "vaccines" that obviously don't work.  (Natural News) Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky went into isolation on Friday, October 21 due to a positive reading on her latest covid-19 PCR test.  CDC senior staff are now tracking down Walensky's closest contacts and taking the "appropriate action" to monitor her status.  Walensky is currently working remotely and is reporting "mild" symptoms of illness.  The term "mild illness" has been used in the corporate media to promote covid vaccines that failed to prevent illness and transmission in public figures who have been vaccinated and boosted several times.  The term "mild illness" is subjective and has been used to describe a variety of respiratory illnesses that have lasted from a few days to several weeks long and reoccurring thereafter (as in the case of Joe Biden and Albert Bourla).  Vaccine pushers are trying to promote vaccine efficacy now by claiming the covid jab prevents "severe illness" and only causes "mild symptoms."  In many cases, this is far from the truth.  Cases of severe illness, debilitation and death are recorded in healthy military service members who were mandated to take the vaccines.  The CDC director is now infected with the very sickness that she tried to avoid for two and half years.

Millions of Americans Were Assigned 'COVID-19 Violation' Scores Based on Cellphone Data Collected During Lockdowns.  A voter analytics firm harvested data from millions of Americans' cellphones during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns and used the data to assign phone users a "COVID-19 decree violation" score and a "COVID-19 concern" score, according to a whitepaper released by PredictWise, the firm that harvested the data.  The data, derived from "nearly 2 billion GPS pings" stemming from "ground truth, real-time, ultra-granular location patterns," according to PredictWise, was then used to target election-related messages to voters during the 2020 election season.

New York Supreme Court Orders Reinstatement of Employees Fired Over Vaccine Status with Back Pay.  The New York Supreme Court has ordered reinstatement for all employees fired over their nonvaccinated status and ordered back pay for those who were unlawfully terminated from employment.  The state supreme court found that being vaccinated does not stop the spread of COVID-19, saying the vaccine mandate and firing of the non-compliant employees was "arbitrary and capricious."  This is a strong rebuke to the totalitarian fiats created by state leaders including the state governor, mayor of New York City and health commissioner.

COVID: Just another flu.  Now that some sanity has returned to public health, we can have a sensible discussion about COVID.  Is it a unique virus or just another flu virus? [...] Despite what politicians and public health officials would have us believe, COVID was a new flu, no better or worse than any previous flu.

New York judge strikes down 'arbitrary and capricious' vaccine mandate for workers.  [A] New York judge has struck down what it calls an "arbitrary and capricious" COVID-19 vaccine mandate for New York City workers, in a ruling that reinstates employees fired for not being vaccinated and entitles them to back pay.  "The petitioners should not have been terminated for choosing not to protect themselves," Richmond County Judge Ralph Porzio wrote in his ruling Monday, in response to the case filed by 16 New York City employees after they were fired for not taking the vaccine.  "The vaccination mandate for [New York] City employees was not just about safety and public health; it was about compliance," he also said.  The judge acknowledged that the city health commissioner has the authority to issue public health mandates but said the commissioner could not "create a new condition of employment for City employees" or "terminate employees."

Judge Strikes Down NYC Vaccine Mandate for All City Workers.  A New York Supreme Court judge on Monday struck down New York City's vaccine mandate, finding the rule to be unconstitutional, arbitrary, and capricious.  Attorney Chad LaVeglia, who announced the verdict outside the Richmond County courthouse, said the mandate was now "null and void."  "So, we just defeated the vaccine mandate for every single city employee — not just sanitation," LaVeglia said in a video on Twitter [...].  The ruling strikes down the mandate that saw over 2,000 city workers fired for not getting a COVID-19 vaccine.  LaVeglia said the ruling extends to all public workers, including the New York fire department, the police department, and the Department of Corrections.

Biden Publicizes His Fifth Covid Shot, As Many Americans Move On From The Pandemic.  President Joe Biden got his fifth COVID-19 shot on Tuesday, telling Americans that they should get "one COVID shot a year."  Meanwhile, a large part of the country's people have returned to their pre-pandemic lives.  The president televised his booster shot and made a speech urging Congress to continue funding the fight against COVID, which he called a "global health emergency."  "It's time to step up with much-need COVID funding.  Help us stay ahead of the virus, and keep our communities going strong with free vaccines, free tests, and widely-available treatments," Biden said.  "None of this is about politics.  It's about your health," he added.

Several Governors Have Already Vowed Not To Follow CDC COVID-19 Vaccine Rules For Children.  A number of Republican governors have vowed they won't mandate COVID-19 vaccines for children despite the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) voting to add the shot to the childhood immunization schedule.  The agency's expert vaccine panel, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), voted unanimously to add the COVID-19 vaccine to the CDC immunization schedule for kids, which is used as a guide by many states to determine which inoculations to mandate for kids going to public schools.  Some Republican governors are getting ahead of the issue and declaring that they won't mandate the shots even after the CDC's decision.

Australia's huge Covid lies finally exposed.  The thing about the truth is that it always comes out.  It may take years, decades or even centuries but reality has a way of asserting itself.  Lies inevitably fall apart.  And so more than two and a half years after Covid-19 first came to Australian shores the truth has finally emerged about our various governments' response to it and the lies have been exposed.  Lockdowns were wrong.  School closures were wrong.  Border closures were wrong.  Poor people were hurt the most.  These are the findings of the first and so-far only full inquiry into Australia's response to Covid, an independent review funded by three major philanthropic organisation and headed by Peter Shergold, previously the most senior public servant in the country and now Western Sydney University chancellor — an eminent and highly qualified mind deeply respected on both sides of politics.

Injecticide:
The COVID vaccines are adversely affecting women's reproductive health.  The single VAERS category with the most elevated events in the COVID vaccines has always been women's reproductive issues.  In this article, we show that vaccines in the past which caused significantly lower adverse events were stopped.  Why aren't the COVID vaccines stopped?  It's because the CDC doesn't disclose the safety issues to the public.  Could there be another source of these effects?  No, because they are correlated to the vaccination (read the case reports).  Women will be furious when they eventually learn the truth about what the medical community and CDC have done to them.  Unfortunately, I think this will take many years.

Doctors are Baffled After 18-Year-Old Athlete Suffers Cardiac Arrest During Tennis Practice.  A tennis player from Rochester, Indiana, who was 18 years old, suffered a cardiac arrest right after he finished his warm-up laps.  Drew Strasser had just finished his warm-up in the gym when he suddenly collapsed last August.  Jake, a friend and teammate, rushed to his aid and began CPR as coach Jesse Atkinson went to grab an automated external defibrillator (AED) to shock his heart while someone called 911.  Their prompt response most likely prevented the teen's death.  "His friend, his 18-year-old teammate who works as a lifeguard — luckily he handled the situation right," Laneia Strasser, Drew's mother, told TODAY.  "Nobody knows how you're going to react to a situation like that, and he did what he needed to do."

An International Tribunal on the Origins of COVID-19.  Lay Summary: To construct synthetic variants of natural coronaviruses in the lab, researchers often use a method called in vitro genome assembly.  This method utilizes special enzymes called restriction enzymes to generate DNA building blocks that then can be "stitched" together in the correct order of the viral genome.  To make a virus in the lab, researchers usually engineer the viral genome to add and remove stitching sites, called restriction sites.  The ways researchers modify these sites can serve as fingerprints of in vitro genome assembly.  We found that SARS-CoV has the restriction site fingerprint that is typical for synthetic viruses.  The synthetic fingerprint of SARS-CoV-2 is anomalous in wild coronaviruses, and common in lab-assembled viruses.  The type of mutations (synonymous or silent mutations) that differentiate the restriction sites in SARS-CoV-2 are characteristic of engineering, and the concentration of these silent mutations in the restriction sites is extremely unlikely to have arisen by random evolution.

Radio DJ dies of 'heart attack' on air.  [Scroll down] James Hazell, managing director of GenX Radio Suffolk, was on air [beginning at] 9 am and shortly before 11 am he informed listeners of the 'devastating blow'.  He said: 'I speak to you this morning with frankly some tragic tragic news.  At ten to eight this morning in the middle of Tim Cough's breakfast show broadcast, he suffered a catastrophic cardiac episode — as it has been described.  Despite the best efforts of the paramedics, who were on site very quickly, some 20 [to] 25 minutes doing what they could to revive to — it was not to be.  It was in the middle of his program, he was doing something he loved to do.'  He added: 'I really have no words at this stage, he was 55-years-old, very healthy.  Who knows why these things happened, but its happened.'

Community Mourns Sudden Death of 16-Year-Old Athlete: 'A Kind and Gentle Soul'.  An accomplished teenager from Dutchess County, New York, is being remembered by the community after his sudden death.  Sixteen-year-old Jack Aidan Strehl passed away October 14, but the cause of death was not immediately provided, the Daily Voice reported Thursday.

A Closer Look at the Covid Mortality Rate.  One of the most consistent efforts made by "experts" during the early stages of the pandemic was to attempt to impress on the public that COVID was an extremely deadly disease.  While it's clear that for the extremely elderly and severely immunocompromised, COVID does present significant and serious health concerns, the "experts" did their best to convince people of all age groups that they were in danger.  Initially the World Health Organization, in their infinite incompetence, made a substantial contribution to this perception by claiming that the mortality rate from COVID was shockingly high.  In March 2020, with precious little data, the WHO made the alarming claim that 3.4% of people who got COVID had died. [...] While "experts" could be forgiven for being unsure about the death rate of a brand new illness with very little data available, the fear-mongering and world-altering policy enacted based on these estimates has caused incalculable damage.  It's now widely known and accepted that these estimates were wildly incorrect, off by orders of magnitude.  But a new paper out from one of the world's leading experts confirms that they were off even more than we previously realized.

Opinion: Hold a morbidity and mortality conference on our COVID-19 response.  Hospitals hold Morbidity and Mortality (M&M) conferences to discuss patients' deaths or complications.  As a surgery chief resident, I presented problems or complications from our surgery service to the senior surgical and medical staff at a monthly conference.  The idea wasn't to point fingers but to honestly find out what went wrong and how to prevent it from happening again.  These sessions could be painful, total honesty was expected, and excuses were not allowed.  As COVID-19 passes from a pandemic stage to an influenza-like endemic, let's examine our nation's responses to the epidemic, look at what went right, what went wrong, and find ways to do better.  The winter approaches and, as Dr. Anthony Fauci warns, "we should not be surprised" if a new COVID-19 variant arises. [...] China's lack of transparency was at the root of our failures.  We were never able to get verifiable data from the source of this pandemic as it relates to the risk of mortality and the ultimate effect of China's extreme measures to contain the virus.  China's lack of transparency about this illness, its source, and how it was acting really slowed down our understanding of the disease.

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky Tests Positive for COVID-19 a Month After Receiving Booster.  On September 22nd CVS pharmacy promoted the COVID-19 booster vaccination program by sharing a Tweet showing CDC Director Rochelle Walensky getting her shot at the national pharmacy chain.  On Saturday October 22nd, the CDC announced Rochelle Walensky tested positive for COVID-19.

Court: Fauci Must Testify Under Oath About Involvement in Social Media COVID Censorship.  You may recall that we have had multiple posts covering a lawsuit brought by Missouri and Louisiana, later joined by others, against the Biden administration and its top officials allegedly involved in colluding with Big Tech and social media giants to censor alleged Covid misinformation (much of which we now know was not misinformation at all, just inconvenient facts). [...] The government pressure on social media to censor political and scientific opponents is a Biden scandal, but it's more, it calls into question whether big tech can run and hide behind its claim to be private entities acting privately.

Alberta Doctor Calls on Medical Association to Investigate 'Sudden Deaths' of '80 Young Doctors'.  An Alberta doctor is calling on the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) to look into what he says is a significant jump in doctors' "sudden deaths" following the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines beginning in December 2020.  "I am now providing you an update with information about 80 young Canadian doctors who died suddenly or unexpectedly since the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines," wrote Dr. William Makis, a nuclear medicine physician and a former clinical academic colleague at the Department of Radiology at the University of Alberta, in a letter to CMA on Oct. 15.  "Four more doctors have died since my previous letter, and these unexpected deaths are accelerating.  You cannot continue to ignore this."  Makis has been speaking out about the "sudden and unexpected deaths" of young doctors who were "double, triple, or quadruple COVID-19 vaccinated" through letters, social media platform Gettr, and interviews.

Judge rules Fauci be deposed in lawsuit alleging White House worked with Big Tech to censor speech.  A federal judge has ordered Dr. Anthony Fauci and other Biden officials be deposed as part of a lawsuit against the Biden administration alleging the government colluded with social media companies to censor free speech related to the coronavirus and other controversial topics.  According to a court order from the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty concluded that Fauci's high-profile public comments have made him a key figure in the lawsuit from the Republican attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri alleging collusion between the Biden administration and social media companies to censor coronavirus related speech that could be damaging to the White House.

Pfizer Plans 400% Price Increase for mRNA COVID Jab After CDC Panels Recommend to Include COVID Shots for Children.  How convenient.  After CDC panels recommend adding COVID shots to children and adolescents' annual immunization schedule, Pfizer plans to increase the price of their mRNA COVID jab by 400%.  Pfizer announced during an investor call that the company is considering charging between $110 and $130 per dosage for the private market for the COVID shot Comirnaty as government contracts come to an end.  The call was conducted on Thursday to review data on RSV and provide a commercial update on the company's COVID vaccine.  The investor call was uploaded on Thursday at 3:31 PM, hours after CDC panels voted to add the COVID vaccine to the annual immunization schedule for children and adolescents.

Man Who Invented Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine Admits He Hasn't Been Jabbed.  Dr Ugur Sahin, the CEO of BioNTech, the biotechnology company that worked with Pfizer to develop the world's first Covid vaccine, has admitted on camera that he did not get jabbed with a Covid vaccine.  When asked by a reporter from the German DW network why he wasn't vaccinated, Dr. Sahin became evasive and vaguely claimed that it's illegal for him to get vaccinated and his company must focus on producing billions of vaccines for others.  The revelation that the man who developed the Pfizer vaccine has not been vaccinated himself recalls claims by Bill Gates' former doctor that while Gates pushes vaccines on humanity, he does not allow his own family to get vaccinated.  [Video clip]

Coroner Orders An Investigation After 13-Year Old Boy With Healthy Heart Collapses And Dies During Soccer Match.  Questions continue to arise due to an uptick in cardiac-related deaths and injuries in adolescent males.  The uptick has occurred since the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccine.  Florida Surgeon General Joseph A. Ladapo recently released a report regarding the mRNA Covid-19 vaccine.  The report raised concerns over risks associated with the mRNA Covid-19 vaccine.  One of the most concerning findings in the report was that the Surgeon General's office found an increased risk of cardiac-related deaths for men aged 18-39.

There are thousands more UK deaths than usual and we don't know why.  The UK has seen an unexplained surge in deaths in recent months, causing concern among the country's chief medical officers.  Many suggestions have been put forward for why there have been about 22,500 more deaths between April and August than would normally be expected, but there is little agreement so far on the cause or causes.

17 Year Old Student And Amazing Singer Drops Dead Unexpectedly During Choir Practice.  A Franklin Park family is sharing their tragic loss after a teenager collapsed and died at a choir event.  Daniel Moshi was a gifted musician, with his exceptional voice earning him a spot as the lead tenor in the choir at Saint Andrews Assyrian Church.  Loden Moshi often accompanied his son Daniel on the piano at the church, which is an integral part of the family's life.  The Moshis are relying on their faith more than ever after Daniel died unexpectedly on Friday.  [Video clip]

Fauci Can't Whitewash His Disastrous Legacy.  This week, ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl asked Dr. Anthony Fauci, the soon-departing head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, if it was a "mistake" for schools to be shuttered as long as they were during the COVID pandemic.  "We should realize, and have realized," Fauci answered, "that there will be deleterious collateral consequences when you do something like that," adding that he had "nothing to do" with schools closing.  This is a transparent legacy-saving revisionism.  Fauci now portrays himself as a humble public health official who had merely shared scientific advice and information with decision-makers.  This self-serving depiction conveniently ignores his fearmongering, his coaxing and lying to manipulate behavior and his partisan scheming.

My Children Will Not Get the Covid Shot No Matter What The CDC Recommends.  The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention vaccine advisory committee unanimously voted to add the Covid-19 shot to the growing list of recommended childhood vaccines this week.  Most states follow this recommended immunization schedule when developing vaccine requirements for schools and childcare facilities.  Unfortunately, not all vaccines are created equal.  Most of the standard scheduled shots have had decades, entire lifetimes to go through long-term trial-and-error.  The Covid-19 shot did not even receive standard clinical trial evaluations, and this is just one factor in my family's decision to avoid the new shot at all costs.

Why Everything Is a Mess and You're Paying For It.  [Scroll down] Our response to COVID wasn't merely recklessly to goose the money supply.  It was recklessly to goose the money supply while intentionally and substantially suppressing the production of goods and services through mandatory commercial and industrial lockdowns.  You don't get inflation merely because there's more money being created.  You get it when there is money being created that does not correspond to, and instead exceeds, more goods and services getting supplied.  It was the lockdowns as much as the antic expansion of the money supply that did us in and now spell so much trouble — specifically, recession — for the future.

Historic Release: Dr. Anthony Fauci's Official Work Calendar (November 2019 — March 2020).  On Tuesday, January 14, 2020 at 9am, Dr. Anthony Fauci joined staff at the National Security Council (NSC) — the President's national security and foreign policy advisory shop — for a meeting in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building about the novel coronavirus.  Fauci would continue to have meetings in classified settings throughout the month.  Fauci's calendar entries included NSC meetings, White House Situation Room meetings, and meetings in other classified settings, as Covid-19 was breaking in China.  (To our knowledge, the existence of these meetings before January 28, 2020 were not previously disclosed.)  On Friday, January 24th, four days after China admitted human-to-human transmission of the virus, Fauci started attending a small group Covid discussion that first took place in "Anthony's Office" in a building next to the White House.  Anthony, in this case, appears to be an NSC employee and an expert in biodefense and China.

CDC Votes Unanimously to Include Experimental COVID-19 Vaccine in Their Recommended Pediatric Immunization Schedule.  Unbelievable and infuriating at the same time.  The CDC voted unanimously today (15-0) to include the emergency use authorized mRNA vaccine as part of the childhood immunization schedule, effectively forcing most school aged children to undergo a COVID shot as part of the state requirement to attend school.

New Study: 1 in 780 German Children Under 5 Requires Hospitalization Due to Severe Adverse Event Following Pfizer's mRNA COVID shots.  According to the findings of German research, one in every 700 children under the age of five who received the Pfizer mRNA Covid vaccine was hospitalized with severe adverse events (SAE), and one in every 200 children had 'symptoms that were currently ongoing and thus of unknown significance.'  The study, "Comparative Safety of the BNT162b2 Messenger RNA COVID-19 Vaccine vs Other Approved Vaccines in Children Younger Than 5 Years," was published in JAMA on Tuesday, two days before the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted to recommend COVID-19 to be included in the 2023 childhood immunization schedule.  Participants in this retrospective cohort study were German parents or caregivers who had enrolled their children in a Covid-19 vaccination program at 21 outpatient care facilities.  The survey used in the study was conducted in a secure online environment.

The Civilization That Knew Too Much.  Information is even corrosive to big science.  Trust in the Centers for Disease Control declined during the Covid-19 pandemic after it failed to live up to its hype.  People could also read scientific journals online and became 'conspiracy theorists'.  Pew Research found that "trust in scientists and medical scientists, once seemingly buoyed by their central role in addressing the coronavirus outbreak, is now below pre-pandemic levels ... Overall, 29% of U.S. adults say they have a great deal of confidence in medical scientists to act in the best interests of the public, down from 40% who said this in November 2020."  No man is a hero to his valet nor is any scientific hypothesis immune from disproof, especially in the Internet age. [...] So, when a pandemic comes, tell them a vaccine is on the way even if it's not tested.  Say it's two weeks to flatten the curve.  Say we have a plan to save the world from Putin's nukes.  Say anything but "we're not sure".

ACIP Votes to Add COVID-19 Injections to the Childhood Schedule.  The ACIP voted to add the COVID-19 injections to the childhood schedule, which determines what vaccines a state mandates for children to attend school.  Main stream media is pretending that states determine what vaccines are used, but the truth is that pediatricians use the CDC schedule and state public health officials use this schedule.  State public health systems use the schedule to determine which vaccines to require for children to enter schools.  Yes, some states have more stringent requirements than others.  Some states allow for "opt-outs," but in the end, most states follow the CDC guidelines.  The ACIP functionally establishes "standard of care" in this area.  Therefore, we can expect an even bigger home schooling and private schooling boom.

The Left Is Using Science 'Consensus' To Shut Down Free Speech in America.  [Scroll down] Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom just signed a law that will revoke a physician's medical license for conveying "misinformation" (defined as deviation from expert "consensus") about COVID-19 and its treatments.  Remember, by the way, this comes from the same people who said that the scientific consensus was to shut down schools and businesses to stop the spread of COVID-19 and that children as young as 5 had to be vaccinated — yet another set of the catastrophic and wrongheaded decision by "the experts."  Since when does the government have the right to censor doctors?  Whatever happened to doctor-patient confidentiality?  Whatever happened to "my body, my choice"?  Even Leana Wen, a former leader of Planned Parenthood and Baltimore's health czar, warns this law "will have a chilling effect on medical practice."

When Was the Last Time That the Democrats Told the Truth About Anything?  [Scroll down] We can't forget the Democrat trashing of public health with their arbitrary and useless shutdowns and mandates.  As bad as their false claims that the new vaccines would keep you from getting COVID-19 and from transmitting it to others, and that COVID was a "pandemic of the unvaccinated."  They scapegoated and punished those who refused to take the vaccine.  But it was all a lie, as the vaccinated got COVID and transmitted it to others.  But the Democrats' demagoguery and authoritarianism were on full display.

Moderna CEO admits to past lies: "COVID is simply the flu, harmless to the healthy.".  On October 17, 2022[,] during a news conference, Stéphane Bancel, the CEO of the drug company Moderna, made the following statement about COVID, the so-called plague that allowed his company (and others) to make billions pushing their jabs on a terrified public: "I think it's going to be like the flu.  If you're a 25-year-old, do you need an annual booster every year if you're healthy?  "You might want to... but I think it's going to be similar to flu where it's going to be people at high-risk, people above 50 years of age, people with comorbidities, people with cancer and other conditions, people with transplants."  [Indeed], where I have heard these exact words for the past two-plus years?  Could it have been on this very same webpage, said by me as well as numerous other cool-headed experts who — rather than panicking — looked at the actual data? [...] Many others with much greater expertise than I kept saying the same thing.  All were pilloryed, doxed, blackballed, and censored for saying so.

Mississippi State Football Player Dies Suddenly At Age 18.  An 18-year-old offensive lineman at Mississippi State University died unexpectedly on Wednesday, just two days before his birthday.  Samuel Westmoreland, of Tupelo, Mississippi, announced back in March that he had decided to join the team after a "long and exciting recruiting process."  Westmoreland, who received awards for his football achievements while at Tupelo High School, decided to major in industrial technology at Mississippi State University.  "The Mississippi State Athletics Family is heartbroken by the sudden death of Sam Westmoreland," Head Coach Mike Leach said in a statement.

Why Are We Calling Them 'Breakthrough' Infections?  James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., recently posed an interesting question to his Substack readers about the Jynneos monkeypox vaccine.  Based on some rough estimates, Lyons-Weiler calculated that the risk of monkeypox after vaccination, based on a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), is about 50 times greater than in the unvaccinated population of similar at-risk people.  So he asked his readers, "What (respectfully) do you think is going on?"  Lyons-Weiler is (respectfully) pointing out the obvious:  If a therapy results in more disease in those who are treated, couldn't the therapy be causing the disease?

CDC Panel Votes to Add Covid-19 Vaccine to Recommended Childhood Schedule.  A CDC panel unanimously voted on Wednesday to add the Covid-19 vaccine to the recommended childhood schedule.  The decision from the agency's advisory committee (ACIP) would add the Covid-19 shot to the public health agency's Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program.  Fifteen voting members of mostly scientific or medical expert backgrounds make up the panel and are responsible for making vaccine recommendations.  All of the panelists are chosen by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services after an application and nomination process.  The ACIP's Wednesday recommendation now goes to CDC Director Rochelle Walenksy and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for approval.  Once approved, the advice will be included in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), a publication of public health information.

Covid vaccine corruption and lies are too much even for Paul Offit — he says "the fix was in".  One of the staunchest vaccine proponents of modern times has suddenly become anti-vax, and now has a severe case of vaccine hesitancy.  Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is now advising against the latest covid-19 vaccines.  Dr. Offit, who is a member of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, voted against the upcoming covid-19 booster shots.  He says the new boosters lack critical data and have been politicized by the Biden administration, with no regard to their risk of blood clotting, myocarditis and thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome.  Offit's eyes were finally opened to the corruption and fraud of the vaccine industry at his latest meeting with the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC). He called the meeting "unusual" and said it "felt like the fix was in" right before the FDA panel voted to reformulate the covid-19 booster shots.  Offit said the committee usually weighs the benefits versus the risks but "I didn't see the benefits."  He said that "both Moderna and Pfizer presented data during the June 28 meeting and it was not compelling."

Eight things that killed the Democrat Party.  [#4] Covid Mask and Vaccine Mandates:  Certainly a show of power rather than anything prophylactic against COVID, blue states and leftist groups have revealed that they know the masks do not prevent COVID, but instead are a symbol of big-government Stasi tactics designed to subjugate the citizenry in order to prepare them for eventual control.

Just how big is our democide?  There is a brooding aspect to this fall, as if everyone is on alert and evil walks among us.  Darkness roils under the surface as people sicken and die, no one knows why, and the super-culture ignores it. [...] In some provinces or states, Sudden Death Syndrome is the top reason for death and those death reports are not slowing down.  Last week, a doctor in Canada, highly credentialed, a Scot trained at Cambridge, his career a series of glittering positions, Roger Hodkinson, announced that, world-wide there have been 20 million deaths from the shots, and two billion adverse effects.  This isa set of numbers that pulls focus away from the proliferation of evidence, the deliberate confusion of evidence, to this point:  democide.  No blood, no gulags, no battlefields, but still the same.  Government killing its people.

Moderna CEO says most people don't need COVID booster, and young people should consider not getting the shot.  The COVID narrative is breaking down.  While the CDC and most state governments are unsuccessfully pushing us all to get yet another COVID booster shot, the CEO of Moderna says the quiet part out loud: relatively few people would benefit from getting the booster because, like the flu, COVID is only dangerous to people who are aged or have significant co-morbidities. [...] Obviously Moderna has a financial stake in people getting boosters, since they make a boatload of money off of people getting shots.  So we should sit up and take notice when the CEO of the company appears to discourage everybody from rushing out to get yet another vaccination.  Fauci and company are still pushing hard, and in fact they just approved the COVID booster for children as young as 5, and Pfizer has teamed with Marvel to encourage children to get boosted.  That's a very different message than what Moderna is sending out.

American Inquisition.  [Scroll down]  Case in point:  the persecution of Meryl Nass, MD, in the state of Maine by its Board of Licensure in Medicine.  Dr. Nass is an internal medicine physician and a recognized expert in bioterrorism who famously uncovered the origin of the mysterious "Gulf War Syndrome" as a reaction to the US Army's own anthrax vaccine.  She has testified before Congress and in many state legislatures about vaccine safety.  After the emergence of Covid-19, Dr. Nass spoke out and blogged about the dangers of the new vaccines, and in favor of early treatment protocols using ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.  Her outspokenness attracted the ire of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and Mills's sister, Dora Anne Mills, the "Chief Health Improvement Officer" at Maine Health, a huge network of twelve hospitals, 1,700 doctors, and 22,000 employees, deeply invested in the Covid vaccine program.  In January of this year, Dr. Nass's license was suspended by the Licensure Board based on complaints by two "activists" that she was "spreading misinformation" and for her use of early treatment protocols with her own patients.

Woman tells all about being a "medical prisoner" at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center in Massachusetts last year.  When 79-year-old Janet Aldrich got sick with pneumonia last year and ended up at the hospital, little did she know that the facility's covid protocols would just about kill her.  Aldrich ended up at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center in Burlington, Mass., where she was diagnosed with double pneumonia.  This occurred on Sept. 4, 2021, a day that Aldrich now describes as the time when she entered "the medical twilight zone."  A former health worker herself, Aldrich knew enough about the standard American covid protocol to request that "covid-19" not be written down in her medical records.  Unfortunately, the doctor she spoke with did it anyway, stating that "they write everyone on this floor as covid."

CDC to vote on granting Pfizer, Moderna permanent legal immunity through child COVID shot schedule.  A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) committee will convene this week and likely vote Thursday to deliver permanent legal indemnity to Pfizer and Moderna, through the process of adding the drug companies' mRNA injections to the child and adolescent immunization schedules.  By adding the shots to the childhood schedule, the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) will transfer liability for vaccine injuries to the federal government's National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), allowing for Pfizer and Moderna to finally bring an FDA-approved shot to the market without opening itself up to lawsuits.  Moreover, it will act as another windfall for companies that have already brought in hundreds of billions of dollars in revenues, by requiring these vaccinations for children who attend public schools.

Boston University Researchers Develop COVID Strain With 80 Percent Kill Rate in Mice.  Researchers with Boston University have developed a strain of COVID-19 that killed 80 percent of mice infected with it, according to a preprint study released last week, prompting concern and condemnation.  The team of researchers extracted the Omicron variant's spike protein, which they noted has "an unusually large number of mutations."  The researchers then attached Omicron's spike protein, which is a structure that allows a virus to bind and invade human cells, to the original COVID-19 variant and dubbed it "Omicron S."  "In K18-hACE2 mice, while Omicron causes mild, non-fatal infection," they wrote, "the Omicron S-carrying virus inflicts severe disease with a mortality rate of 80 percent.  This indicates that while the vaccine escape of Omicron is defined by mutations in S, major determinants of viral pathogenicity reside outside of [Omicron] S."

Boston University researchers claim to have developed new, more lethal COVID strain in lab.  Researchers at Boston University say they have developed a new COVID strain that has an 80% kill rate following a series of similar experiments first thought to have started the global pandemic that began in China.  The variant, a combination of omicron and the original virus in Wuhan, killed 80% of the mice infected with it, the university said.  When mice were only exposed to omicron, they experienced mild symptoms.  The research was conducted by a team of scientists from Florida and Boston at the school's National Emerging Infectious Diseases Laboratories.

The Unvaccinated Deserve Reparations.  How many people in the "land of the free" lost their ability to care for their families for refusing to go along with the COVID-19 jab mandates?  For saying no to injecting themselves with an experimental gene therapy "vaccine," even though most of them weren't at severe risk from the virus?  When Pfizer executive Janine Small admitted to the European Parliament on Oct. 10 that the vaccine had never been tested to stop the virus's transmission, many may have subsequently felt vindicated.  Rob Roos, a conservative member of the European Parliament for the Netherlands, asked Small point-blank whether the claim that we were all fed from day one of the vaccine's release had any grounding in fact.  Those who refused the shot on principle endured the vitriolic attack by their government and peers.  They were labeled as antisocial and denied access to society in many cases.  Roos may have made his statement in Brussels, but it also resonated with those of us in the United States and Canada.  The latter endured particularly draconian lockdown orders and vaccination requirements.

Reuters "fact check:"  We never said the vaccines would prevent anything.  There has been a considerable amount of understandable buzz and unrest making the rounds since a Pfizer executive was forced to admit to a European Union conference that they never tested their COVID vaccine to see if it would actually prevent infections or halt the transmission of the virus prior to it being rushed onto the market and mandated almost universally.  This has left many health officials and elected officials with pie on their faces and vocal sectors of the public demanding answers.  Stepping into the breach to quell the uproar this weekend is Reuters, publishing yet another one of their infamous "fact checks" to clear the matter up.

No! Boston University creates a new Covid strain that has an 80% kill rate.  Researchers at Boston University have performed gain-of-function research using recombinant DNA.  They combined the spike protein from the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus with the original strain of the virus and came up with an artificially created variant with an 80% mortality rate in mice.  In mice the Omicron variant causes mild illness, not vast mortality.  When I first read the article I literally could not believe it.  And I mean that seriously.  It was too insane to believe.  But the Daily Mail has the goods, linking to the research itself, which indeed does say that scientists have developed such a virus.  With an 80% mortality rate.  Ugh!  The virus does not limit itself to infecting mice, either.  It is 5 times more infectious in humans than the Omicron virus from which it was derived.  Are they insane?

The Dancing Vax media mocks the truth.  Saul Alinsky's fifth Rule for Radicals is "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.  There is no defense.  It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule.  Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."  Which explains why corporate media has turned late-night TV shows into Marxist Theater.  Mockery serves the powerful.  Last year, Stephen Colbert performed a Dancing Vaccines skit using the song Tequila but changing the words to Vaccine because all the cool kids are getting the shots.  It was a bit he stole from Jay Leno's Dancing Judge Itos.  This year, healthy athletes are dropping like flies following their covid shots.  The media won't report it because the media went all in on the covid shots, with their late-night hosts mocking skeptics who refused to take an experimental drug.

Has the Global Rollback of Covid Shots Begun?  In a move that major corporate media outlets refused to cover when the story dropped, the Danish Health Authority is now limiting shots for Danes under age 50 to only those who are at high risk for severe Covid or have close contact "with patients or citizens who are at higher risk of becoming severely ill from covid-19" in "the healthcare and elderly care sector as well as in selected parts of the social services sector."  Fact-checkers have tried to spin this as anything but an admission that the shots aren't totally safe and effective.  But if the shots were likely to provide a benefit outweighing potential risks for younger citizens, taking into account widespread pre-existing immunity and the low risk of severe Covid under age 50 (which the Danish Health Authority has), why are they restricting vaccine administration, when Denmark already has the apparatus to do unlimited jabs for teens and adults as before?  They could have told younger Danes they're free to take a booster, but they don't think it's necessary.  Instead, they chose to restrict access.  Policies speak louder than fact checks.

Staying fully unvaccinated proves to be the safest defense against contracting Covid.  It took awhile, but a few billion people are now able to confirm what they suspected since the beginning of the pandemic, namely that it is mostly a fear-based campaign that went "viral," and the main goal was always simply pushing toxic "vaccinations."  In other words, if you DO NOT have millions of spike proteins throughout your vascular system and flooding your vital organs, you have a better chance of fending off Covid.  This is simply because your immune system, heart and cleansing organs are not being taxed, polluted and strained by millions of toxic prions that mimic the lab-concocted, gain-of-function SARS-CoV-2 virus.  This is a look into ADE, auto-immune disorder and how booster shots continue to weaken the immune system, a bit more each injection, because there are millions more spike proteins to invade vital organs, including the liver and pancreas, as we are seeing with science-backed evidence.  Pfizer-Gate has been blown wide open, and the masses are starting to die off and disappear, almost like Nazi Germany, but this time throughout the world.  It's a vaccine holocaust, and it's not just lead by Pfizer, but Moderna and many more pharma conglomerates.

Fauci: For People to Say I'm Political Is 'Completely Crazy'.  Outgoing National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday on ABC's "This Week" that for people to think he is political is "completely crazy."  Anchor Jon Karl said, "Fauci became the subject of bizarre conspiracy theories and received countless death threats as he was vilified by the right.  So what's the biggest misconception about you?"  Fauci said, "You know, I don't know, Jon.  I think the misconception is I was misleading people.  You know, to say that I, who have been adviser to seven presidents and have never ever veered one way or the other from an ideological standpoint, for somebody to say that I'm political, that's completely crazy."

44-Year-Old Teacher Suddenly Collapses, Dies in Front of Students.  An Italian woman teaching in Verona, Italy, dropped dead in her classroom on last week — and her family and friends are stunned.  According to EuroWeekly, an English-language newspaper in Spain, Giovanna Fabrica was 44 when she collapsed Monday [10/10/2022].  Fabrica, who was a native of Sicily, taught at the Ederle State Comprehensive Institute of Villa Bartolomea, the report said, citing the Italian newspaper Fanboy.it.

The COVID Cult Proved How Desperate Westerners Are for Meaning.  What is the meaning of life?  What is our purpose?  Why are we here?  Daunting questions whose answers have been sought since mankind's birth.  Although we mortals will continue to debate the nature of our existence for as long as we exist, I know this: we are not here to scream at each other for not wearing three layers of masks or to force each other to submit to experimental medical injections just because some very powerful people say we must.  We are not here to lock people up in jail because they have the temerity to worship God together.  We are not here to board up small businesses because family owners desperate to remain financially afloat choose to operate in defiance of politicians exercising unjust, arbitrary, and completely capricious powers that they do not legally possess.  We are not here to shun those who refuse forced injections of foreign substances, to lock our doors when they are near, to disinvite them from family gatherings, or to vilify them as "unclean" and "unworthy" of life.  We are not here to silence those who have different opinions by censoring their words and prejudiciously labeling their arguments as "misinformation."  This is not the purpose of our existence.  Yet it is entirely too clear that for a large number of Westerners, this kind of COVID authoritarianism has been tantalizingly appealing.

Menstrual Abnormalities Lasting for Months Following COVID-19 Shot Is 'Very Concerning': Doctor.  The data collected from Israel's adverse events reporting system showing that some women experienced menstrual disorders for more than 12 months after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine raises concerns, according to Dr. Shelly Cole, an obstetrician-gynecologist in Texas.  "Looking at the Israeli data is very concerning," Cole told The Epoch Times.  Of the 282 Israeli women who reported menstrual abnormality following COVID-19 vaccination, 88 reports contained information on the duration of the condition.  And of the 88 reports, 83 disclosed that the menstrual problems lasted over a week.  Some of the women's problems had still not resolved.  All but one of the reports were from adults.  The single child report detailed a disorder lasting between one and six months.  Of the other 82 reports, 11 reported that their condition lasted between one week to one month, 42 that their condition lasted one to six months, 22 that they suffered for six to 12 months, and seven that their condition lasted for over 12 months.

Absolutely Shameful: Covid Dictators Still Unwilling To Let Go Of Power In Australia.  More than two years of lockdown hell — especially in Melbourne — has taken its toll.  Relationship breakdowns, suicides, drug and alcohol abuse, business collapse, and so on have been the result.  Nobody wants to go through all that again: we are totally fed up with the Big State doing its best to emulate Big Brother.  Thankfully it is more or less over — or so it seems.  But just as a rapacious carnivore wants ever more after having acquired a taste for blood, so too our state leaders have loved the power and control they so easily were able to obtain over the past few years.  They do not want to give it up.  Indeed, they want more!

PR Firm Working for Pfizer and Moderna Embeds Staff Within CDC's Vaccine Committee.  A PR firm that represents big pharma companies like Pfizer and Moderna has been revealed to staff certain divisions in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) during the pandemic, sparking questions regarding potential conflicts of interest.  Based in New York, Weber Shandwick is reportedly the second-largest PR firm in the world with revenues of over $830 million and around 4,700 employees worldwide.  It has employees working inside the CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD) — the section of the agency that implements vaccine programs and oversees the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), according to an exposé newsletter by investigative journalist Paul D. Thacker.  A "$50 million contract allows PR firm to be 'embedded at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta as part of the Division of Viral Diseases team,'" said Thacker in a tweet Tuesday, adding details like Linkedin information on employees of the PR firm working within the CDC.

Fauci Claims Innocence on School Shutdowns: 'I Had Nothing to Do with It'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, who recently announced he would be leaving his government post as White House chief medical adviser, claimed innocence on the fallout from school shutdowns, namely dramatic learning loss among K-12 students, in an interview that aired Sunday [10/16/2022].  Speaking to ABC News, the nation's chief immunologist denied that he had any responsibility in driving the public health consensus that schools should have discontinued in-person instruction for many months on end as a Covid-19 mitigation measure.

Fauci insists he 'had nothing to do with' school shutdowns.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser, who is gearing up to retire from government at the end of this year, says he had nothing to do with COVID-19-related school shutdowns.  The longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases made the claim in an interview with ABC.  When asked by journalist Jonathan Karl as to whether it was a mistake to close schools for as long as they were, Fauci at first appeared to defend the practice, pointing to fatalities from COVID-19 among children, before denying he had anything to do with the policy and even claiming he actively pushed against it.

Prospective juror jailed for 24 hrs after judge demanded he wear a mask when it wasn't mandatory.  A North Carolina judge went on a power trip when a father showed up for potential jury duty and decided not to wear a mask in a mask-optional courthouse, ruling the man was in contempt and throwing him in jail for 24 hours without bond.  "I never thought I would show up to jury duty and end up behind bars.  So it happened," Gregory Hahn told Fox News host Tucker Carlson on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."  [Video clip] [...] Hahn is a Navy veteran and has served as a member of the President's Honor Guard at Arlington National Cemetery.  He stated that there were 98 potential jurors to choose from and the judge could have simply dismissed him when he declined to wear a mask.  Clerks told the jury pool that Gilchrist personally required masks in his courtroom.

Fauci Edited Bat-Virus Research Papers in the Weeks After COVID-19 Outbreak.  The White Coat Waste Project has uncovered that the head of the NIAID, Dr. Anthony Fauci, edited papers regarding bat-virus research conducted in Wuhan in January 2020, just weeks after the initial outbreak of the virus in China.  Throughout the author's time investigating the COVID origins, the White Coat Waste Project has been an invaluable resource, aiding my efforts to investigate the role that individuals and funding from government organizations may have played in the creation and release of a deadly virus from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  Aside from the very clear question that continues to go unanswered (namely, why we are funding US viral research at a Chinese military lab in the first place), it now appears that additional questions have risen about the oversight of funding awarded to EcoHealth Alliance (EHA).

The Democrat Party Is Crumbling.  The Democrats thought they could steal our freedoms away under the guise of COVID-19.  Actually, they did steal them.  Embarrassingly, many Americans were only too happy to lock down, wear the useless Fauci face diaper, and stand on science-free stickers at the grocery store.  You know, to save grandma. [...] Dr. Anthony Fauci was "science" (according to the megalomaniacal troll himself).  Now, we know he is a well-paid shill for big pharma.  To this day, he's still pushing the "vaccine" that never was, even on kids who aren't really affected by COVID. Like the guilty little hobgoblin he is, Fauci is quitting the National Institute of Health (NIH) in December, though Sen. Rand Paul has stated that Fauci can run but he can't hide.

Biden renews COVID "emergency" for another 90 daysNever let a crisis go to waste, Rahm Emanuel once advised.  Add to that this new axiom:  Never let your emergency powers expire.  As incompetent as Joe Biden might otherwise be, he's proven adept at following both. [...] In his 60 Minutes interview with Scott Pelley less than four weeks ago, Biden walked around the Detroit auto show without a mask, and remarked about how normal it seemed, and how "everybody seems to be in pretty good shape":  [Tweet]  That was just three weeks ago.  What makes this an "emergency" now?  Even with the CDC still reporting correlative data rather than causative, ER visits with COVID diagnoses are near a year-long low and dropping.  Reported cases are bottoming out as well, as are correlated deaths (still no breakout for causation), as are correlated hospital admissions.  Even wastewater surveillance — which would take place regardless of emergency status — shows a decline in prevalence despite the addition of many new sites in the mix.  So why is the pandemic over but not the emergency?  For one thing, Biden still wants emergency cash from Congress.

COVID Vaccines Are The Biggest Corruption Scandal In The History Of The World, Says MEP.  "The purchase of 4.5 billion doses of the Covid-19 vaccine for 450 million EU residents is the biggest corruption scandal in the history of mankind," Mislav Kolakusic, a Member of the European Parliament ("MEP"), said.  That's 10 doses for every man, woman and child in Europe — including newborn babies — for an injection that no one knows the ingredients of.  Yesterday, 10 MEPs asked Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission — also known as "Mrs. 4.5 billion doses" — when she would make communications she had with Pfizer regarding the procurement of the "vaccines" publicly available.  Mislav Kolakusic was one of those MEPS and he tweeted the video below.  [Video clip]

German government set to burn nearly €6 billion's worth of expired face masks during energy crisis.  What does a Green nation do when it can't get fuel?  Well, it burns chemical-laden and toxic masks, of course!  If you will, follow this (very brief) timeline of events:  Trump warned them, they scoffed, and now they're burning COVID masks for heat.  So who are they?  "They" are the elitists at the helm of the German government, running the country into the ground, all in the name of climate alarmism.  But who do the German people think they are, placing undue expectations on public servants to prioritize citizens' prosperity over Big Government altruism?  "They" are from the government, and "they" are only here to help.  The audacity.

Health Official Admits in Court That Millions of Canadians Have Been Experimented on With Covid Vaccines.  Court testimony reveals that Canada's top health expert did not recommend a vaccine be a requirement before boarding a bus, train or plane.  Even worse, the human trial for the Covid vaccine is now underway and millions of Canadians are part of the experiment.  It's an astounding revelation, according to lawyer Keith Wilson, who is representing former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford's lawsuit against the federal government for what they describe as the most far-reaching breach of charter rights in Canadian history.  It prevented six million people's right to freedom of movement because of a ban against unvaccinated people from travelling on buses, trains and planes.

A Look Back at the Demonization of the Unvaccinated.  Social media has been in an uproar since a member of European Parliament posted a video of a hearing in which a Pfizer director admitted the company never tested whether its Covid mRNA vaccine prevents transmission prior to its approval for emergency use.  Though the fact that Covid mRNA vaccines do not prevent transmission was, of course, abundantly clear from the data soon after their implementation, this myth was a primary justification for vaccine passes and a primary cause of the unprecedented venom launched at those who refused Covid vaccines throughout 2021 and continuing through today.  Not only did governments exert this pressure through policy, but in many cases politicians and officials used their office to deliberately stoke the social stigmatization of the unvaccinated.

What If Science Isn't Very Scientific?  Science is one of the "golden calves" of our day.  Many people worship the scientific process, believing whatever scientists say is absolute truth (unless, of course, it contradicts one of the other golden calves, such as LGBTQ, abortion, etc.) — and those who are even so much as hesitant to jump on the latest bandwagon are "science deniers" standing in the way of progress.  But what if science isn't always so scientific?  A recent article is just one of many that are calling attention to a big problem in the scientific literature:  fraud and corrupted research.

European Prosecutor Investigating COVID-19 Vaccines.  A European prosecutor said Oct. 14 it is investigating COVID-19 vaccines.  The European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO) said it has an "ongoing investigation into the acquisition of COVID-19 vaccines in the European Union."  "This exceptional confirmation comes after the extremely high public interest.  No further details will be made public at this stage," the office said in a statement.  The office declined to answer questions about the investigation, including whether the probe spans the entire European Union (EU) or only certain countries.  "We cannot share more than we did in our statement.  If there are any developments we can share, we will do so proactively (as we did today)," a spokesperson told The Epoch Times via email.

Scientists Find Antibodies That Neutralize All COVID Strains.  Researchers at Tel Aviv University revealed two antibodies that are so effective at neutralizing SARS-CoV-2 — and all of its variants — that they believe the antibodies could serve as an "effective substitute for vaccines."  One of the glaring failures surrounding COVID-19 shots is their lack of effectiveness against emerging COVID-19 strains.  By choosing the spike protein on which to base COVID-19 shots, scientists picked a protein that not only was known to be toxic to humans but was not the part of the virus that prompted the best immune response.  Spike protein mutates rapidly, which essentially destroys virtually any protection that the shot provides shortly after it's given.  The end result is a seemingly never-ending series of annual shots and boosters, which can only offer rapidly waning protection.  If the Israeli researchers' findings are verified and the antibodies turn out to be as effective as suspected, it could eliminate COVID-19 booster shots entirely.

Doctors Warn Pfizer COVID Treatment Paxlovid Can Interact With Common Medications.  The COVID-19 drug Paxlovid can have dangerous interactions with common medications used to treat cardiovascular disease, including certain statins, warned doctors in a new review paper.  A paper published Wednesday in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology shows the combination of nirmatrelvir and ritonavir, or Pfizer's Paxlovid, can interact with a number of commonly prescribed cardiovascular medications.  Ritonavir, first approved to treat HIV in 1996, impacts the CYP450 pathway that's involved in metabolizing a number of medications — as well as the P-glycoprotein drug efflux pump, according to the paper.  "Co-administration of [Paxlovid] with medications commonly used to manage cardiovascular conditions can potentially cause significant drug-drug interactions and may lead to severe adverse effects," said an abstract.  "It is crucial to be aware of such interactions and take appropriate measures to avoid them."

Pfizer Exec Admits COVID Vaccine Was Never Tested To Stop Transmission During EU Hearings.  During a hearing today on the European Union's COVID-19 response, Pfizer's president of international developed markets, Janine Small, admitted that its vaccine had never been tested before its release to the general public on its ability to prevent the transmission of COVID when asked by Dutch politician and a current Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Robert "Rob" Roos.  "Regarding the question around did we know about stopping immunization before it entered the market... No.," Small replied with a smirk when asked by Ross if Pfizer's COVID vaccine was ever tested to stop the transmission of the virus before it entered the market.  [Video clip]

French Politician Claims Macron Never Got a Covid-19 Vaccine.  A former French presidential candidate and former member of France's National Assembly is claiming that President Emmanuel Macron, who stated in January that he "really [wanted] to [anger]" the unvaccinated people of the nation, is not, himself, vaccinated against Covid-19.  Jean Lassalle of France's Resistance Party made the remarks in an interview with broadcaster NTD.  [Tweet]

EU MEP Calls Out Pfizer Exec After She Admits COVID Vaccine Was Never Tested on Preventing Transmission.  APfizer executive admitted to the European Parliament on Monday that the COVID-19 "vaccine," was never tested during clinical trials on its ability to prevent transmission, exposing a key argument for the shots and vaccine passports as a lie.  During a special committee hearing on COVID-19, Janine Small, president of international developed markets at Pfizer, was asked if the company tested its product "on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market."  In response, Small said, "regarding the question around did we know about stopping immunization before it entered the market?  No, um, these ah, you know, we had to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is happening in the market."

Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo Discusses His Decision to Recommend Against COVID-19 Vaccines for Young Adult Males.  On October 7, the Office of Florida's Surgeon General Joseph A. Ladapo, MD, PhD, issued an announcement recommending "against males aged 18 to 39 from receiving mRNA Covid-19 vaccines."  This created quite a stir as his advice goes against the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and numerous other scientific organizations.  Dr. Ladapo cited a Florida health dept study showing an 84% increase in the incidence of cardiac-related death among males 18-39 years old within 28 days following mRNA vaccination.  Immediately Dr. Ladapo became a target by federal officials, big tech and defensive media.  Dr. Ladapo appeared on Tucker Carlson last night to discuss.  [Video clip]

Dutch Member of European Parliament Questions Pfizer About COVID Vaccine, the Answer Destroys Foundation for COVID Passport.  A member of the EU Parliament from the Netherlands, Dutch PM Rob Roos questioned the leading representative from Pfizer during an EU hearing.  Mr. Roos asked Pfizer if the mRNA vaccine was ever tested to see if it blocked transmission of the virus.  Ms J Small responded to the question by saying no, the vaccine was never tested to see if it blocked transmission.  The question is important because it cuts to the heart of the issue surrounding the vaccine passport and various rules and regulations that were implemented against unvaccinated people.  Pfizer admitted the vaccine was never tested to block transmission, ergo the premise of the vaccine passport was built on a lie.  Both vaccinated and unvaccinated people could carry and shed the SARS-CoV-2 virus regardless of vaccinated status.

Pfizer Exec Concedes COVID-19 Vaccine Was Not Tested on Preventing Transmission Before Release.  A Pfizer executive said Monday that neither she nor other Pfizer officials knew whether its COVID-19 vaccine would stop transmission before entering the market last year.  Member of the European Parliament, Rob Roos, asked during a session: "Was the Pfizer COVID vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market?  Did we know about stopping immunization before it entered the market?"  Pfizer's Janine Small, president of international developed markets, said in response: "No ... You know, we had to ... really move at the speed of science to know what is taking place in the market."  Roos, of the Netherlands, argued in a Twitter video Monday that following Small's comments to him, millions of people around the world were duped by pharmaceutical companies and governments.

"The Long Term Effects and Efficacy of the Vaccines Are Not Currently Known".  The unredacted version of the Advance Purchase Agreement (APA) between the EU Commission and BioNTech-Pfizer was published last year by the Italian media outlet Rai.it: [...] A real bombshell is found in the Vaccine Order Form (pages 48-49):  "... The Participating Member State further acknowledges that the long-term effects and efficacy of the Vaccine are not currently known and there may be adverse effects of the Vaccine that are not currently known.  Further, to the extent applicable, the Participating Member State acknowledges that the Vaccine shall not be serialized."

Federal aid won't make up for students' COVID-19 learning loss, study shows.  American students are struggling even though the government sent billions of dollars in COVID-19 relief money to school districts to offset learning loss, according to a study released Tuesday.  The study says the federal largesse fell short, failed to target the schools in greatest need and wasn't tied to policy outcomes.  Analysts at the American Educational Research Association said schools likely need $700 billion to address learning loss, mainly from remote instruction, but received about $189 billion from the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund in 2020 and 2021.  The funds, including about $120 billion tucked into President Biden's massive pandemic relief bill last year, were intended to be used to increase tutoring, offer after-school programs and buy new textbooks, among other measures.

Moderna CEO Announces Development of New mRNA "Injection" to Repair Heart Muscle After a Heart Attack.  Ever since the experimental Covid-19 'vaccine' was introduced, a staggering and horrifying phenomenon has been sweeping the Western world.  We have seen it happen to athletes, performers, musicians, news anchors, soldiers, high schoolers, healthcare workers, random people, politicians, and so on.  People have been dropping to the ground like flies because of heart-related issues that are, in virtually every case, caused by an adverse reaction to the mRNA jab.  It's undeniable; the rise in these life-threatening incidents has a clear and proven culprit (as numerous studies have shown a clear link between the mRNA spike protein and the litany of complications that are arising). not only that, but people are dying at an unprecedented rate.  The evidence has become so overwhelming that, as of this week, Florida's Surgeon General has even come out and recommended that people refrain from taking the vaccine because it causes a massive 84% spike in cardiac-related death in males aged 18-39.

AstraZeneca's COVID vaccine suffers a setback in nasal spray trial.  Attempts by Oxford University researchers and AstraZeneca Plc to create a nasal-spray version of their jointly developed COVID-19 shot suffered a setback on Tuesday as initial testing on humans did not yield the desired protection.  An antibody response in the respiratory mucous membranes was seen in only a minority of participants in the trial, which was in the first of usually three phases of clinical testing, the University of Oxford said in a statement on Tuesday [10/11/2022].

California makes it illegal for doctors to disagree with politicians.  Conformity of thought is now required whether it is online, on college campuses, or, if you are in California, in a physician-patient relationship.  PayPal recently introduced a $2,500 fine for anyone involved in "the sending, posting, or publication of any messages, content, or materials" that — in "PayPal's sole discretion" — "promote misinformation."  After a firestorm of criticism, PayPal withdrew the policy, claiming the whole thing was a misunderstanding and was not official policy — hardly a convincing explanation from a site with a history of banning those it considers politically incorrect.  But California physicians have had no such relief.  Gov. Gavin Newsom recently signed California Assembly Bill 2098, making it the first state to attempt to censor what physicians can say about COVID-19 to their patients.  This is a dangerous, and likely unconstitutional, effort that other states must resist.

The War on Ivermectin.  In this interview, return guest Dr. Pierre Kory discusses his new book, "The War on Ivermectin: The Medicine That Saved Millions and Could Have Ended the COVID Pandemic."  In it, he details the history of ivermectin and the how and why behind Big Pharma's suppression of this drug when it was found to work against COVID-19.  Like Dr. Paul Marik and Dr. Peter McCullough, Kory has been threatened by the American Board of Internal Medicine, which is seeking to yank his medical license.  While a family doctor in private practice can operate without board certification, most medical centers will not hire a doctor who isn't board certified in his specialty, and insurance companies won't put you on their panel.  Kory, however, is not overly concerned about this threat — which is really little more than an intimidation tactic to shut him up — as he has no intention of ever going back to a hospital setting.

Disinformation Assault on Vitamin D.  If enough people wake up, pulling back the curtain on vitamin D as an alternative to Covid vaccines would be a huge blow to the "safe and effective" emergency use authorization (EUA) narrative supporting more COVID vaccines and booster shots.  As we approach three years since the COVID-19 pandemic began, if the medical establishment/ Big Government and Big Pharma continues to have it their way, less vitamin D supplements will flow into American households as time marches on.  And if people take it for granted that taking low levels of vitamin D is good enough, the Pharma-captured HHS would be fine with that (short of banning it if they could).

National Guard Lost 7,500 Troops in Past Year, Could Lose More Amid COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate: Service Officials.  The National Guard has lost about 7,500 members over the past year, and the ranks could dwindle even more because of potential future discharges of as many as 14,000 more troops amid the U.S. military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, according to reports.  The troop loss is due to more soldiers retiring or leaving the National Guard than are being added, officials told The Associated Press.  They have cited challenges in recruiting, as well as how more soldiers are deciding against reenlisting when their tours of duty end.  Army National Guard chief of staff Maj. Gen. Rich Baldwin told the AP that the current staffing challenges are the worst he has seen in the past 20 years.

Myocarditis in Children Post-Vaccination — A Video to Share with Every Parent.  A heart-breaking video released last week by the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation shines a light on the growing number of children diagnosed with myocarditis after taking Covid injections.  The video begins with Pfizer's television advertisement in late 2021 to manipulate and recruit children for its clinical trials.  In the advert, the company's message is that any child who volunteers for the trial for Pfizer's novel "vaccine" will become a hero.  "Bravery," "helping others," and "courage" are the qualities describing kids who sign up for Pfizer's clinical trial.  Following Pfizer's hero advert is an advertisement released by a New York City hospital recruiting children to its intensive care ward who may have myocarditis.  Myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart, is a proven side-effect of Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine.

Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Turns Negative Within Months: Study.  The effectiveness of Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine against infection turns negative over time, according to a new study that was funded by the vaccine maker.  The effectiveness of three doses — a primary series and a booster — against infection remained above 50 percent after 150 days against BA.1, a subvariant of the Omicron virus variant, researchers estimated.  But against more recent strains, including the currently-dominant BA.5, the effectiveness turned negative.  Against BA.2, BA.4, and BA.5, the effectiveness went negative after 150 days.  Against BA.1.12.1, the effectiveness turned negative after 91 days.  Negative effectiveness means a vaccinated person is more likely to contract COVID-19, the disease the virus causes, than an unvaccinated person.

Simple nasal wash reduces risk of covid hospitalization by more than 8x.  Did you know that protecting yourself against covid hospitalization is as simple as flushing your nasal cavity with mild saline water?  Instead of jabbing yourself with DNA-modifying mystery chemicals and wearing a face mask all day, simple saltwater is all that is needed to flush the disease out of your system.  The latest research shows that a saline nasal wash performed twice daily for 14 days beginning within 24 hours after symptoms appear was found to reduce the risk of covid hospitalization by eight times.

'The mRNA Covid vaccines are killing people, plain and simple'.  An emboldened Alex Berenson is absolutely going off on the beastly jabs today.  [Numerous tweets]  For Berenson, the question is no longer whether the vaccines are safe and effective; the question of primary importance is now, exactly how much irreversible damage have they done?

US-linked Chinese military scientist filed patent for COVID vaccine just after contagion emerged: report.  A Chinese Communist Party military scientist who got funding from the National Institutes of Health filed a patent for a COVID-19 vaccine in February last year — raising fears the shot was being studied even before the pandemic became public, according to a new report.  Zhou Yusen, a decorated military scientist for the People's Liberation Army (PLA) who worked alongside the Wuhan Institute of Virology as well as US scientists, filed a patent on Feb. 24[,] 2020, according to documents obtained by The Australian.  The patent — lodged by the "Institute of Military Medicine, Academy of Military Sciences of the PLA" — was filed just five weeks after China admitted there was human-to-human transmission of the virus, and months before Zhou died under mysterious circumstances, the report noted.

Twitter Crosses Red-Line, Censors Florida Surgeon General's Recommendation.  On Saturday, Florida's Surgeon General, Joseph Ladapo, made waves by becoming the first major health official in the country to recommend against males 18-39 getting the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.  That came after an extensive, multi-year study showed an 84 percent rise in cardiac-related deaths among the age group.  That backed up prior studies which had also pointed to an increased risk of heart issues.  Ladapo's job is to make those determinations and give his recommendations to the general public.  That would be the same general public that chose to elect Ron DeSantis, who appointed the surgeon general, as governor of Florida.  Unfortunately, Twitter has long shown it is a ward of the politicized CDC and quickly moved to censor Ladapo's announcement.  As far as I can tell, it was an unprecedented move to silence a duly-appointed health official of a major state. [...] Twitter may end up a bastion of free speech under Musk, but other companies like Facebook and Instagram are all-in on doing the left's bidding.  That's especially true when it comes to nonsensical, cultish COVID-19 edicts.

Marvel Teams with Pfizer, Promotes COVID Vaccines in Avengers 'Everyday Heroes' Sponsored Comic.  Marvel Comics has teamed up with Big Pharma giant Pfizer for a digital comic book featuring Captain America and the Avengers promoting the company's coronavirus vaccines.  The theme of the comic defines people who take the vaccine as "everyday heroes," according to a Pfizer Instagram post from Thursday. [...] The collaboration comes nearly a month after President Joe Biden declared the coronavirus pandemic to be "over" and also a month after the CDC altered its guidelines to end any differentiation between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients.

Australia has solved the vaccine hesitancy problem: they offer a free funeral gift card with your vaccine.  This is a good first step:  it shows that Australia acknowledges that the COVID vaccines kill people.  In the US, we are not that sophisticated.  None of the health authorities (other than those in Florida) think the jabs can kill you.  As far as I know, total $$ paid out to date for compensation for injuries/death from the COVID vaccines: 0.

National Guard "Accidentally" Gives Service Members COVID-19 Vaccine Instead of Influenza Shot.  This week it was revealed that the US National Guard wrongly administered the Covid vaccine to a group of service members who were expecting to receive an influenza vaccine, according to The Epoch Times.  The incident occurred during a mobile vaccination clinic for the Maine National Guard and at least one member who refused the mRNA vaccine on religious grounds received the experimental injection without his knowledge.  That service member, Mathew Bouchard, is no longer a member of the National Guard.  After the incident, he felt that the trust was completely broken.  He was ordered to take a flu shot and feels like he was duped.  Because the incident happened close to the end of his service contract, he chose not to renew.

Renowned OB/GYN tells Dr. Drew That He Has Seen an "Off the Charts" Rise in Miscarriages and Fetal Abnormalities Since the Vaccine Was Introduced.  Dr. James Thorp — a board-certified OBGYN and Maternal Fetal Medicine Physician with over 43 years of clinical experience — joined Dr. Kelly Victory and Dr. Drew earlier this week to discuss recent studies on mRNA Covid vaccines and the adverse effects they have had on pregnant women since they were introduced.  In the past two years (since the mRNA vaccine was introduced), Dr. Thorp explained that he has seen an "off-the-charts" rise in sudden fetal death and adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as fetal malformation and even fetal cardiac arrest, among his patients.

Florida Can Bar Businesses From Requiring Proof of COVID-19 Vaccination: Appeals Court.  Florida's law barring businesses from requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination is likely legal, a federal appeals court has ruled.  The law, passed in 2021, says that a business "may not require patrons or customers to provide any documentation certifying COVID-19 vaccination or postinfection recovery to gain access to, entry upon, or service from the business operations in this state."  "Florida's statute is a regulation of economic conduct that only incidentally burdens speech, which does not implicate the First Amendment," U.S. Circuit Judge William Pryor wrote for the majority of a U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit panel on Oct. 6.  "And its burdens on interstate commerce do not exceed the benefits of furthering Florida's substantial interests in protecting its residents from discrimination and invasions of privacy."  The court vacated a preliminary injunction, which was entered after a lower court concluded the law likely violates Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings' right to free speech.

Florida Contradicts the Cult, Tells Younger Men Not to Get the mRNA Vaccines.  In a move sure to set hair aflame, Florida's Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph A. Ladapo, has recommended against men aged 18-39 getting the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.  That decision was made after the results of a study showed an 84 percent increase in cardiac-related deaths within the first 28 days of getting the shot. [...] You can go to the CDC's website right now and find that they admit these cardiac events are a problem, yet they still recommend indiscriminate vaccination for those as young as 6 months old.  The COVID-19 vaccines should not have a cult following.  They should be used when the data says they should be used.

The worldwide flight from mRNA shots continues.  Only a few months ago, Australia had one of the world's most aggressive coercion programs to force Covid vaccines on its people.  Now Australia has essentially ended its Covid vaccination program for healthy adults under 50 — and effectively banned the shots for people under 30, unless they have severe chronic illnesses.  With the change, Australia joins Denmark in curtailing its vaccine program for adults under 50.  Last week, Norway went even further, saying no one under 65 should receive additional shots unless they were at underlying risk of a severe disease course (oddly, Norway kept its recommendation for pregnant women.)  But Australia's change is arguably the most striking, because Australian states put extraordinary pressure on their people to submit to Covid vaccinations last fall and winter.  Mandates for work were only the beginning.

Anthony Fauci keeps money flowing to Wuhan.  Last month, Dr. Anthony Fauci defended a $3-million grant to the EcoHealth Alliance, a group with a troubling history.  As The Epoch Times reports, the grant comes only weeks after the National Institutes of Health, the parent bureaucracy to Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), terminated a grant to the Alliance that was routed to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  The WIV, controlled by China's Communist government, twice declined NIH requests "to hand over laboratory records so that it could review the research."  Fauci previously channeled grants through the EcoHealth Alliance to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the WIV.  Such research, once banned in the United States, makes viruses more lethal and transmissible.  Fauci was "untruthful" about funding such research at the WIV.

Why Did So Many Intellectuals Refuse to Speak Out?  Think of all the institutions that have marched in lockstep during the dramatic decline in civilization over three years.  It's been media, Big Tech, large corporations, academia, the medical industry, central banks, and government at all levels.  They have all been in on the lie.  They sat by and said nothing or even cheered as governments utterly wrecked rights and liberties that humanity has fought for over 800 years.  The examples are too numerous to list but one stands out to me.  For several months, New York City attempted a bold experiment making a place for vaccinated people only.  As a result, no person who chose against the experimental Covid shot was allowed in restaurants, theaters, bars, libraries, or museums.  Disproportionately hit were 40 percent of black residents who refused the vaccine due to the community's deep awareness of the long history of US pharmaceuticals ties with racial eugenics.  For decades, US policy has banned practices with disparate impacts on racial minorities.  Then one day, no one cared.  Where was the outrage?  I cannot recall a single voice of opposition appearing in any major newspaper or mainstream venue.  This went on for months!

Shocking trove of HHS records reveals the most aggressive vaccine propaganda campaign ever.  Judicial Watch has nailed it yet again, suing HHS to acquire a treasure trove of documents that reveal the world's most exhaustive, heavily funded and wide-ranging propaganda campaign to try to convince the oblivious masses to be injected with an experimental mRNA concoction that isn't even a "vaccine."

Judicial Watch Uncovers Biden Administration Propaganda Plan to Push COVID Vaccine.  Judicial Watch announced today that it received 249 pages of records from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) detailing the extensive media plans for a propaganda campaign to push the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Democrats Wrecked My Retirement.  Whether it was a legitimate mistake from sloppy lab practices in Wuhan or a deliberate plot by Communist China to upset the Western world or something else altogether, it descended upon the world like a ton of bricks dropped from the back of a huge construction dump truck.  Worldwide panic ensued.  The Democrats, utterly horrified that everything — everything — was going so well under President Trump that he'd easily win re-election that year, took advantage of the COVID scare to rewrite the presidential election voting procedures and execute their elaborately designed fraud plans.  Drop boxes, mail-in/absentee ballots that weren't cross-checked for proper signature ID, Democrat state legislatures illegally changing the voting deadlines to make post-election vote manipulation that much easier, etc. — all manner of voting fraud was committed under the guise of "COVID" and "public safety."  That ruse, the most blatant, damaging election gambit in American history, gave us this blitheringly incompetent, ideologically driven Biden administration.

The Right Response to Mandates, Propaganda and Censorship.  The manipulation of data and testing during the COVID-19 pandemic was done intentionally to create fear in the population, driving them to accept the experimental COVID-19 jabs that we're now learning are both dangerous and ineffective at stopping transmission.  In the above episode of the Children's Health Defense "Against the Wind" program, Dr. Meryl Nass, a board-certified internal medicine physician with special expertise in vaccine safety and vaccine mandates, shares some astonishing figures on the blatant testing fraud that occurred — including the fact that 281 tests for COVID-19 have received emergency use authorization (EUA) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but not one has received approval.  This means their manufacturers have zero liability if the tests don't work.  The platforms behind COVID-19 shots were already in the works well before the pandemic.  They were just waiting for the opportunity to go mainstream.

Doctor Surprised as Patient Refuses to Receive Blood Transfusion if Donor had been Vaccinated Against COVID-19.  On Sunday, Dr. Stephanie Cooper shared on her Twitter followers that she was surprised when one of her patients declined to receive a blood transfusion if the donor had been vaccinated against COVID-19.  Dr. Stephanie Cooper is a Calgary-trained Obstetrician-Gynecologist and Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialist with Alberta Health Services.  "So- this was a first for me.  A patient declined blood transfusion if the donor had received a covid vaccination," she wrote.  Another doctor replied and expressed the same sentiment, "Sadly, we've had a couple of patients here with the same beliefs."

DHS released unvaccinated Afghans while threatening to fire unvaccinated Border Patrol agents.  The Biden administration allowed hundreds of Afghans from last year's airlift to disappear into American communities without getting COVID-19 or other vaccinations, an inspector general has revealed.  The information was released as the Biden administration was starting the process to fire government workers who didn't get the coronavirus shots — including some employees at Homeland Security, the department that allowed the Afghans to go free.  Investigators couldn't say exactly how many Afghans avoided vaccination.  They said the Homeland Security Department reported that fewer than 600 walked away without the shots in the early weeks of the evacuation, but dodgy records made it impossible for the inspector general to evaluate that claim.

Zero COVID is destroying China.  China had a good run both in the media and with our elites for over 3 decades — because there was a ton of money to be made and as with all gold rushes the damage is ignored.  Our tech companies rely on the country, our consumer products often come from there, and our entertainment and sports industries have grown reliant on their patronage.  It turns out that the bargain we made with the country had larger downsides than expected.  President Trump was the first president to fight back against the hollowing out of the American economy, but until COVID hit it was an uphill battle.  COVID changed everything, though, although not for exactly the right reasons.

There's No Doubt There Will Be More Pandemics Because They're Intentionally Creating Them.  No biodefense research is purely defensive — to do the work, you're automatically engaged in the creation of biological weapons.  Early on in the Covid pandemic, Francis Boyle, PhD., was sure it was the result of a lab leak.  He believes monkeypox is another lab creation, as it now suddenly has 30 mutations from the wild monkeypox found in Africa.  President Biden recently signed the 'Executive Order on Advancing Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing Innovation for a Sustainable, Safe and Secure American Bioeconomy', and this order basically promises we'll see additional manmade pandemics.  Section 12, paragraph VII in Biden's executive order states that the purpose of the order is to "develop and work and promote and implement ... dual-use research of concern, and research involving potentially pandemic and other high-consequence pathogens."  That means they intend to perform gain-of-function research on deadly pathogens, any one of which could be released to create a global pandemic when a scare event is necessary to trick populations into choosing a false sense of safety over freedom.  Boyle believes there's no doubt there will be additional pandemics because they're intentionally creating them.

CDC Drops COVID Travel Advisories.  The CDC has taken down its country-by-country COVID-19 travel advisory list.  In a statement released on Tuesday, the agency said that its ability to assess the travel health notice for Americans is limited as fewer countries are reporting new coronavirus cases.  The CDC announced that it will only post advisories in the event of a concerning COVID-19 variant.  The agency advised that Americans should be keeping up-to-date with vaccines and travel recommendations regardless of their destination.

Judicial Watch Uncovers Biden Administration Propaganda Plan to Push COVID Vaccine.  Judicial Watch announced today that it received 249 pages of records from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) detailing the extensive media plans for a propaganda campaign to push the COVID-19 vaccine. [...] Judicial Watch is asking for all records regarding the application process; all organizations asking to be chosen to participate; all grants; and all communications of representatives of the Department of Health and Human Services regarding the program.

Hundreds of Thousands of Americans Sought Medical Care After COVID-19 Vaccination: CDC Data.  Hundreds of thousands of Americans sought medical care after getting a COVID-19 vaccine, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data released on Oct. 3.  Roughly 782,900 people reported seeking medical attention, emergency room care, and/or hospitalization following COVID-19 vaccination.  Another 2.5 million people reported needing to miss school, work, or other normal activities as a result of a health event after getting a COVID-19 vaccine.  The reports were made to the CDC's V-safe program, a new vaccine safety monitoring system to which users can report issues through smartphones.  The CDC released the data to the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) after being sued over not producing the data when it was requested by the nonprofit.  ICAN posted a dashboard summarizing the data.  "It took numerous legal demands, appeals, and two lawsuits, and over a year, but the CDC finally capitulated and agreed to a court order requiring them to do what they should have done from day one, release the V-safe data to the public," Aaron Siri, a lawyer representing ICAN in the case, told The Epoch Times in an email.

Supreme Court Declines to Hear Challenge to Health-Care-Worker Vaccine Mandate.  The Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear a legal challenge to the Biden administration's vaccine mandate for health-care workers at facilities that receive federal funds.  The justices rejected an appeal submitted by the plaintiffs, including ten mostly Republican-controlled states, after a lower court declined to hear their petition.  The vast majority of health-care workers nationwide, 10.4 million, are subject to the mandate, although there are medical and religious exemptions.  The case is Missouri v. Biden.

Newly Obtained Emails Shed More Light on CDC's False Vaccine Safety Monitoring Statements.  Newly obtained emails show the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made a false statement on COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring in 2021, months before agency officials gave false statements on the matter to The Epoch Times.  The emails also show top officials in the agency discussing performing safety monitoring on a key database for myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation that has been linked to the vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna.  The CDC promised in 2021 in a set of operating procedures to perform a type of analysis called Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR) on reports of adverse reactions following COVID-19 vaccination.  The reports are submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which officials have described as "the nation's early warning system" for post-vaccination adverse events.  The CDC also said in an updated set of operating procedures in 2022 that it would perform the analysis.  But the CDC has made false statements three times this year on PRRs, initially saying such analysis was outside the agency's purview, then saying the analysis was performed starting in 2021, then saying the analysis did not begin until 2022.  The newly obtained emails show that an official falsely said the CDC does not perform PRR analysis to an editor in 2021.

Red Cross Admits They do Not Separate Vaccinated from Unvaccinated Blood.  Earlier this month (September 2022), the Red Cross admitted that they don't label blood products as originating from COVID-19 vaccinated people or blood from unvaccinated people.  The reason they don't separate or apparently distinguish blood from COVID-19 vaccinated or unvaccinated people is because they believe that "the COVID-19 vaccine does not enter the bloodstream & poses no safety risks to the recipient."  [Tweet]  As Kyle Becker of Becker News recently pointed out, this statement by the Red Cross that the COVID-19 vaccine does not affect the bloodstream is contradicted by several published studies.

Healthy 20-Year Nurse Drops Dead 1 Day After Receiving Covid 'Vaccine'.  At what point is it considered premeditated murder to give a healthy child or young adult an injection that has been shown to potentially kill them?  Regan Lewis, 20, from the US state of Kansas, became a nurse in May this year.  On Monday, she received the experimental Covid "vaccine."  But, unfortunately, a day later, the healthy young beloved nurse was dead.

Liberal strongholds cling to vaccine mandates.  For many people, the pandemic no longer factors into daily life.  But in a handful of liberal cities, universities, and companies, some people are still subject to vaccine mandates that may require as many as four shots to keep their jobs or spots in school.  Some of the mandates are facing growing protests and legal challenges.  Roughly two dozen former firefighters in Seattle filed a lawsuit against the city this week for denying their requests for religious exemptions to the vaccine and firing them.  New York City's largest police union successfully sued to invalidate the city's vaccine mandate for its members; a judge ruled this week that the union's contract with the police department did not include an ability for the department to enforce such a mandate.  The judge ordered the reinstatement of all the union-backed members fired under the vaccination requirements.  Even so, New York City officials said they planned to fight the ruling.  More than 1,700 city workers across all departments had been fired as of this month over their refusal to comply with the vaccine mandate.

California's new totalitarian attack on conservative physicians.  In the almost three years since COVID entered America, we've learned that Democrats were mostly wrong about everything related to COVID and Republicans were mostly right.
[1] The cloth and paper masks they imposed on everyone (especially children) are ineffective, as even the CDC concedes, although it tries to obfuscate that fact.
[2] Lockdowns made no difference regarding COVID, although they did help destroy the economy and destroy hundreds of thousands of American lives.  (On the flip side, shipping COVID-infected patients to vulnerable elderly communities made a huge and horrible difference.)
[3] Vaccines are proving to be extremely dangerous, something the CDC has also been forced to concede.
[4] The jury is a little bit out on medicines because the American medical establishment has bent itself to "proving" that hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin will not treat COVID.  However, it does appear that, for both ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, if patients receive them early enough after a COVID diagnosis, they will make a beneficial difference.  (Experiences in both India and Brazil back up these studies.)

Woke Amherst College introduces dystopian anonymous survey that will force all students to wear masks in class if SINGLE person requests them.  A woke liberal arts college has introduced a new masking policy that would require all students in a class to wear face masks if a single person requests them using an anonymous survey.  Under the new policy at Amherst College in Massachusetts, each student and teacher would be provided an anonymous survey in which they could express their views on whether they want a mask mandate in their classroom.  The new guidance was created by Catherine Epstein, provost and dean of faculty at the Massachusetts school, who wrote to her colleagues on September 29 that the new policy will go into effect on October 17.

Is Dr. Fauci the DNC's largest in-kind donor?  An "in-kind" political donation is defined as a non-cash gift made to a nonprofit organization, including goods, services, time, and expertise.  I submit that, under this definition, Dr. Anthony Fauci is quite possibly the largest in-kind donor to the Democratic National Committee.  Fauci, however, has been clever in the manner of his assistance to the Democrats.  After all, when you criticize the good doctor, he reminds you that you are criticizing science itself.  Although Fauci has repeatedly insisted that he is not a political person, the evidence clearly indicates otherwise.  In 2020, he strongly opposed the Trump campaign's use of a video clip showing him praising the administration's response to the COVID-19 pandemic; yet he allowed the DNC to use his photo in political ads online without a word of protest or opposition.  In fact, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (a fundraising organization for Democrat congressional candidates) ran online ads reading "Thank you, Dr. Fauci!"  But what were they thanking him for?  In January 2021, I argued that they were slyly thanking him for his push for a near-total shutdown of the American economy in 2020 (which coincidentally happened to be a presidential election year).

FDA Withholding COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Data is Illegal: Lawmakers.  Rep. Gregory Steube (R-Fla.) and other U.S. lawmakers are asserting that the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) refusal to provide records to The Epoch Times is illegal.  The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) states that, with exceptions, agencies that receive satisfactory records requests "shall make the records promptly available" to the requester.  But the FDA recently refused to provide results of COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring analysis to The Epoch Times, claiming that it could not separate the results from inter-agency and intra-agency communications, which are allowed to be withheld.  Steube and colleagues told FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf, a Biden appointee, that they were concerned after reading the story about the refusal to provide the records, telling Califf that his agency "is obligated to disclose" the materials under FOIA.  The requested analysis was performed on reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  Anybody can submit reports to VAERS, but most reports are submitted by health care workers, who are required to report adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination.

CDC ended mask requirements in healthcare, and almost nobody noticed.  The CDC dropped masking requirements for health care settings, and the move was largely ignored by the news media and public health officials.  It got a modest amount of coverage, mostly days after the announcement, but the dramatic change in guidance was met with little fanfare.  And that is how the CDC wanted it, apparently.  They dropped the news late last Friday.  Not yesterday [9/30/2022], but a week ago Friday [9/23/2022].  I have followed COVID news pretty closely, and my Twitter feed is filled with COVID-related accounts because I was involved in anti-lockdown activism back in 2020.  Today was the first time I even heard of the rather shocking news.

Over 500 scientific papers to be withdrawn by publisher.  There's good news that a major publisher of scientific journals is cleaning out the stable of papers whose review process appears corrupted, but the bad news is worse.  Not only were these papers published in the first place, but the easily-corrupted system of peer review — which is supposed to be the quality assurance mechanism for the creation and dissemination of scientific knowledge — remains in place with no additional safeguards.

Anthony Fauci found his cash cow in COVID.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is rolling in the dough.  According to nonprofit financial watchdog OpenTheBooks, the White House advisor on COVID and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the U.S. National Institutes of Health, saw his personal wealth soar 70% from $7.5 million to $12.6 million, almost doubling his portfolio, during the COVID pandemic.  Pandemics can be profitable for the guy shutting down the economy and telling kids to wear two masks and goggles while laughing about it behind closed doors.

Fifth COVID Shot Recommended Without Safety or Efficacy Data.  The emergency authorizations of Pfizer's and Moderna's bivalent COVID boosters are based on preliminary test results from a grand total of eight mice, and that data hasn't even been made public[.]  Based on the antibody response in eight mice, the Biden administration has ordered 171 million doses of the two boosters[.]  A reanalysis of data from the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccine trials found that, combined, the jabs were associated with a risk increase of serious adverse events of special interest at a rate of 12.5 per 10,000 vaccinated.  Meanwhile, the risk reduction for COVID-19 hospitalization was only 2.3 per 10,000 participants for Pfizer and 6.4 per 10,000 for Moderna[.]  According to a recent risk-benefit analysis of a third booster for university students, for each COVID hospitalization prevented, the booster will cause 18 to 98 serious adverse events[.]

What If They Threw a Pandemic & Nobody Came?  Under the guise of public health, the legal infrastructure is presently being laid for one-world tyranny courtesy of the fleece-garbed wolf known as the World Health Organization.  In January 2022, that took the form of US-proposed International Health Regulations (IHR) amendments that would have granted WHO Director-General Tedros A. Ghebreyesus absolutist powers superseding the laws of sovereign nations.  We succeeded in impeding all but one of those amendments, thanks primarily to the vocal opposition of African nations and readers like you, who helped alert the world even as the public opinion engineers attempted to muffle and malign us.

1930's Cartoon Showed How the Plandemic Would Unfold.  [Video clip]

Pro-Vax Doc Believes COVID Booster Accelerated His Cancer.  Michel Goldman, M.D., Ph.D., professor of Immunology and Pharmacotherapy at Belgium's Université libre de Bruxelles, has come forward with his belief that a COVID-19 booster shot may have accelerated the growth of his cancer.  Goldman, a prominent advocate for vaccines in Europe, was driven to go public with his beliefs by his desire for open and honest discussion about the COVID-19 vaccines.  He told The Atlantic that the Pfizer booster shot he received on September 22, 2021, appears to have accelerated the progression of his angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL).  After being diagnosed with AITL, Goldman, 67, believed it was the right thing to do to get the COVID booster because his immune system would be compromised upon starting chemotherapy.  However, a CT scan taken after Goldman received the shot revealed something unexpected:  the cancer had spread so rapidly in such a short amount of time that individual cancerous nodules illuminated his entire scan.

The relationship between Deaths, COVID Deaths & Covid-19 Vaccination.  A peculiar pattern has now persisted in official UK Government data for some time.  Approximately five months after each dose of the Covid-19 vaccine is administered to each age group, the mortality rates per 100,000 rise significantly among the vaccinated compared to the unvaccinated in each age group.  So much so that by the end of May 2022, mortality rates were lowest among the unvaccinated in every single age group in England, and highest among the one-dose vaccinated, the two-dose vaccinated and the three-dose vaccinated.  Now, an analysis of Covid-19 data published by the UK Government has found that not only does the same pattern persists in Covid-19 deaths, but each dose of Covid-19 injection given causes a significant rise in Covid-19 deaths.

Skeptical of global warming?  Shame... you are mentally ill.  Many countries already require such health passes, the One Health Pass, which of course also require Corona "vaccines".  Life, health and death are connected, so climate activists in countries like Australia have since 2020 intensified the pressure on governments to start stating "climate change" on death certificates.  Just as with the vast majority of all Corona deaths, where people died with Corona and not from it, they now want to add "climate change" as an underlying reason for deaths.  All the young and healthy people who, since last year, suddenly and unexpectedly began to die of blood clots and various heart problems — completely inexplicable according to the establishment and their dogmatic "science" — can now be blamed on the climate.  It can then, as during the Corona, provide figures that not only falsely demonstrate an alleged pandemic or other major threat, such as alleged global warming, but can also be used for various new restrictions and not least climate lockdowns — something globalists and their paid climate activists and researchers have long worked to introduce.

New Documents Reveal COVID-19 Vaccine Studies Used by HHS were Conducted in China.  Judicial Watch announced today [9/23/2022] that it received 115 pages of records from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) revealing previously redacted locations of COVID-19 vaccine testing facilities in Shanghai, China.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had claimed the name and location of the testing facilities were protected by the confidential commercial information exemption of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

How the liars spread the ugly corrupt lie of the COVID jab.  Yesterday I outlined in detail how a growing body of research as well as a great deal of blatantly obvious public data is increasingly demonstrating that the COVID shots carry with them some risk, and that in many cases, especially for those younger than 50, the risks outweigh the relatively minor benefits the jab provides against the Wuhan flu.  Though this data was unknown when the COVID shots were first made available, the amount of uncertainty and risk was great enough to make it unconscionable for any politician or health official to require anyone to get the jab, no matter what. [...] Today I am going to outline the lies perpetuated by politicians and government health officials almost from day one of the Wuhan panic that worked hide these basic facts.  Many times these lies were committed with the best of intentions.  Many times the liars honestly and sincerely believed the lie was their only course of action.  And in too many cases, the lies were merely lies, said simply to protect the individual from scandal and possible prosecution, should the truth come out.

Dr. Fauci and wife's wealth 'skyrocketed' by $5 million during pandemic: analysis.  Dr. Anthony Fauci and his wife's net worth grew by $5 million during the COVID-19 pandemic as thousands of US residents struggled financially, according to a government spending watchdog group.  The combined wealth of the 81-year-old retiring director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and his bioethicist wife, Christine Grady, soared from $7.5 million in 2019 to $12.6 million at the end of 2021, according to a report from the non-profit OpenTheBooks.  "Despite becoming a figure of controversy, the system has rewarded Dr. Fauci handsomely," the group's CEO, Adam Andrzejewski, told Fox News Digital.  "While Dr. Fauci has been a government bureaucrat for more than 55 years, his household net worth skyrocketed during the pandemic."

Experts Say [a] 'Flawed' Study [was] Used to Justify [the] Mask Mandate [and] $3 Million in Fines Levied at [a] Church.  Santa Clara County's $3 million lawsuit against a church in California's Silicon Valley over COVID-19 mandate violations, as well as its prior mask mandate, was based on a study that's deeply flawed, critics say.  Pastor Mike McClure of Calvary Chapel San Jose defied county mandates from May through October 2020 when the church held indoor services, made masks optional, ignored social distancing rules, and refused to place limits on how many of its 600 congregants could attend services.  The county filed a civil enforcement lawsuit against the church in November 2020 to collect fines and penalties totaling $2.87 million — and in its latest move, the county asked the California Supreme Court on Sept. 26 to review an appeals court decision from August that allowed the church to avoid paying more than $200,000 in court fines.

The Long March of 'Long Covid'.  For people who suffer from prolonged symptoms associated with a Covid infection, so-called "long Covid," the Biden administration knows that "it can feel like the world is moving on, while leaving them behind." That was the verdict rendered in a statement provided by the Department of Health and Human Services.  "We see you, we hear you, and we are taking action to help."  To hear the avatar of the nation's public health apparatus tell it, moving on from "long Covid" is not an option.  Indeed, "long Covid" may justify dragging everyone back.  "What is your metric for success?" Texas Tribune CEO Evan Smith recently asked Dr. Anthony Fauci. "How do you analyze the numbers and say this is heading in the right direction?"  In responding, Fauci twice said that placing a "heavy emphasis" on "death and severe disease" is the most practical way to gauge the level of menace Covid represents.

Here are just a few of the terrible, radical, tyrannical policies Swamp Dems are trying to fund with your money.  [Thread reader]  [Scroll down]
  •   $45 billion for the @NIH that FUNDED dangerous research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology — and across the world — and has REFUSED to accept any responsibility or open inquiries into its potential role in the COVID-19 pandemic
  •   $6.3 billion for [NIAID], which is run by COVID-tyrant-in-chief Anthony Fauci - enough said
$8.5 billion for [CDC], which:
  •   Colluded with teachers' unions to impose school lockdowns and mask mandates
  •   Censored health data they feared would be "misinterpreted"
  •   Shuttered information on natural immunity
  •   Used taxpayer dollars to buy citizens' location data
  •   $3.3 billion for [FDA] that LIED to the American public about the efficacy of COVID vaccines, enriching Big Pharma in the process.
  •   $612 million for [OSHA] that Biden tried — but thankfully failed — to weaponize to force millions of Americans to take a COVID-19 vaccine against their will.

The Pandemic was a Grand Rehearsal for the Great Reset.  Fear is the key to obtaining compliance.  And by obtaining mass compliance during the pandemic, the global elite — operating through political leaders, international bodies, NGOs, and a vast network of "experts" and bureaucrats — audaciously tested ground for the Great Reset.  "Populations have overwhelmingly shown a willingness to make sacrifices," said Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF).  "The changes we have seen in response to COVID-19 prove that a reset of our economic and social foundations is possible."  In his new book The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown, Marc Morano lays bare how "15 days to slow the spread" was actually "15 days to begin your conditioning to accept a new level of tyranny."  He shows how the agenda was set decades before the pandemic and was given momentum during the post-9/11 War on Terror.  The signs of long preparation for the Great Reset are now quite evident.

The ugly corrupt lie of the experimental COVID jab.  On September 9, 2021, President Joe Biden announced harsh mandates nationwide that forced millions to get COVID shots.  You had no choice.  If you refused, you would be fired from your job and made a non-person, forbidden in all ways from participating normally in society. [...] Those mandates — unreasonably based on very uncertain knowledge at the time — have now been found to have killed thousands of people who did not need to die.  And worst of all, the people imposing those mandates were lying, and knew they were lying.  For a large majority of the population that either voluntarily chose to get the COVID jab or were forced to submit under duress, the shots and boosters at this point appear to have been harmless.  Most people have exhibited no negative symptoms once jabbed, and have so far been able to go on with their lives as if nothing had changed.  The problem is that for many, that jab was a death sentence, with the executioner often arriving unexpectedly but quickly, and completely unnecessarily.

Study Shows the Dangers the Covid Vaccine Has on Women's Health.  What was once deemed as "misinformation" by the Biden administration another study has confirmed the implications the Covid-19 vaccines have on women's health.  A large study conducted by the National Institutes of Health found that women of childbearing age who got the Covid vaccine are at heightened risk of 14 different conditions including having a miscarriage, fertility issues, fetal cardiac arrest, and menstrual abnormality.  "Pregnancy and menstrual abnormalities are significantly more frequent following COVID-19 vaccinations than that of Influenza vaccinations.  A worldwide moratorium on the use of COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy is advised until randomized prospective trials document safety in pregnancy and long-term follow-up in offspring," researchers of the study concluded.  Compared to those who did not receive the Covid jab, vaccinated women experienced an increase of less than one day in their menstrual cycle, which can cause health problems down the line.

Routine childhood vaccines may raise the risk of asthma by a third, shock Government-funded study finds.  It has been a question pondered by scientists mostly on the fringes for decades.  Now a federally-funded study has found a possible link between vaccines containing aluminum and a higher risk of asthma in children.  Results showed children who received all or most of their routine childhood shots had a 36 percent higher risk of being diagnosed with persistent asthma by age five than kids who got fewer vaccines.

Mainstream Journalists Confused As Government Flips COVID Script.  In the video below I go over a telling moment in culture as government policy changes and it reveals their past deception.  The lack of complex thinking in mainstream journalism is becoming more evident as governments begin to back track on their simplistic and reductionist narratives around COVID.  We are in a society where we are also reducing all of our examination of our world to only logical thought, causing us to fail in connecting with each other as complex beings.  This is a concerning and 'sleepy' trend our society is on.  One point I forgot to make in this video that I typically do is that there is more to life than simply looking at tiny changes in more or less deaths via health policy.  [Video clip]

COVID-19 Vaccine mRNA [is] now found in breastmilk.  A small but groundbreaking study has been released at the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics, demonstrating that trace amounts of COVID-19 vaccine mRNA were found in the breastmilk of lactating women as soon as one hour after vaccination.  This study was conducted from February to October 2020, and included only 11 lactating women, 5 of whom received the Moderna vaccine and 6 of whom received the Pfizer vaccine.  The comparison was made between their pre-vaccine breastmilk (the control) and post-vaccine breastmilk.

Peer-Reviewed Studies on Ivermectin Retracted 'Without Explanation': Dr. Pierre Kory.  Both sides of the debate surrounding the controversial drug, ivermectin, agree it can kill SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.  But some groups have characterized the drug as a COVID-19 "cure," while others have classed it as "dangerous."  While many published studies advise against using ivermectin for COVID-19, studies that showed statistically-significant benefits for the treatment have been taken down and retracted "without explanation."  That's according to Dr. Pierre Kory, a pulmonary and critical care medicine specialist who is the president and co-founder of the Front Line Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC).  Kory and a number of other physicians who support ivermectin use in treating COVID-19, especially in early treatment, were among those whose papers on ivermectin were retracted by journals that Kory alleges are "beholden to Big Pharma."

We've quit the pandemic only to start a pandemic of quitting.  Millions of Americans have quit their jobs over the past couple of years.  Millions more have "quiet quit," which is a new label given to the inertia of people collecting paychecks but doing the bare minimum or less at work.  Under the headline "A Nation of Quitters," Andy Kessler noted in his Wall Street Journal column that there are 3 million fewer workers than there were before COVID hit in early 2020 and 11.2 million job vacancies.  Open a newspaper or website and you see articles trying to plumb the mystery of what has happened, endeavoring to explain why America's get-up-and-go spirit got up and left.  I thought about this while rereading British politician Harold Nicolson's three-volume collection of diaries spanning 1930 to 1962.  He records a similar malaise in post-war Britain, which, like America today, perceived itself to be in decline.

Nearly 900 young healthy athletes confirmed dead in 18 months.  The online journal Real Science is tracking athlete deaths and adverse events from the time of the release of experimental Covid injections in January 2021 through August 31 of this year.  The journal has listed, named and catalogued by country every athlete who has suffered a serious adverse event or died.  This is not an exhaustive list but it's better than any other I've seen thus far.  Almost all of these vaccine casualties have had their cause of death classified as "unknown."  Prior to the release of the Covid injections, the average athlete deaths per year was 29, according to the International Olympic Committee research.  Compare that to the nearly 900 known athlete deaths recorded over the last 18 months, all of which have been unexplained.

Canadian woman dies minutes after getting COVID booster shot in pharmacy.  A Canadian woman dropped dead at her local pharmacy only minutes after getting a COVID booster jab.  As reported by the Western Standard, on September 14, the now deceased Carol Pearce went to her local Shoppers Drug Mart in Saskatoon, where she got a COVID booster shot.  While waiting for the mandated 15-minute post-jab rest period, Pearce "dropped dead before she hit the floor" according to Shoppers Drug Mart workers.  Pearce had been texting her daughter Stephanie Foster right after she had received the jabs.  According to Foster, only a short while after her mom had told her she had received the shot, Shoppers Drug Mart said she fell to floor.  "It was right after then that they say 'she dropped dead before she hit the floor'," noted Foster.  "That is what the docs have told us."

Top Scientists Publish Paradigm-Shifting Study About COVID-19 Vaccines.  A team of nine experts from Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and other top universities has published paradigm-shifting research about the efficacy and safety of the COVID-19 vaccines and why mandating vaccines for college students is unethical.  This 50-page study, which was published on The Social Science Research Network at the end of August, analyzed CDC and industry-sponsored data on vaccine adverse events, and concluded that mandates for COVID-19 boosters for young people may cause 18 to 98 actual serious adverse events for each COVID-19 infection-related hospitalization theoretically prevented.  The paper is co-authored by Dr. Stefan Baral, an epidemiology professor at Johns Hopkins University; surgeon Martin Adel Makary, M.D., a professor at Johns Hopkins known for his books exposing medical malfeasance, including "Unaccountable: What Hospitals Won't Tell You and How Transparency Can Revolutionize Heath Care"; and Dr. Vinayak Prasad, a hematologist-oncologist, who is a professor in the UCSF Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, as well as the author of over 350 academic and peer-reviewed articles.

The McCullough paper.  In this article, I will summarise an extensive paper on mRNA vaccine safety recently published by Dr Peter McCullough.  It's an unusual thing for a 'layman' to summarise a paper like McCullough's, so why am I doing it?  If I've learned anything throughout this pandemic, it's that we need more participation in our own health.  We've been cajoled into a position where life and death risk/benefit calculations are made on our behalf by an industry with an apparent lack of interest in our safety.  This was demonstrated beautifully just a few days ago when Fauci went on TV and confidently described the new bivalent vaccine he was promoting "It hasn't been proven in a clinical trial... because we don't have time to do a clinical trial!"  There was no pushback to this absurdity.

Pfizer CEO Has COVID For Second Time In Two Months.  Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla has tested positive for Covid-19 for the second time in two months.  The 60-year-old contracted the disease in August, for which he took the company's antiviral treatment, Paxlovid.  He's also received four doses of his company's vaccine, which was developed with German partner BioNTech — but claims he hasn't gotten the new Omicron-tweaked bivalent booster due to his August infection.  "I've not had the new bivalent booster yet, as I was following CDC guidelines to wait three months since my previous COVID case which was back in mid-August," he said, while claiming to be "symptom free."

The Editor says...
A positive Covid test is a symptom, is it not?  This makes it difficult to believe that he's "symptom free."

All It Takes Is One Hero.  [Scroll down] [M]illions of people are only now awakening to the mounting dangers around them and are left terrified by what they finally see.  Why now?  Perhaps it was the unprecedented COVID lockdowns and school closures that ruined livelihoods and educations.  Perhaps it was the government's decision to close small businesses in the name of "public health" while permitting big box stores to rake in windfall profits.  Perhaps it was the medical community's disjointed "scientific" pronouncements that large crowds protesting "racist" policing during a pandemic were perfectly healthy but that citizens assembling to protest government mandates were somehow not.  Perhaps it was the Department of Homeland Security's stealthy open border policies and middle-of-the-night flights of unvaccinated illegal aliens to unsuspecting communities around the country while the Biden administration simultaneously coerced military service members and civilians into taking experimental "vaccines."  Perhaps it was the constantly changing government health guidelines that redefined the meanings of "vaccine" and "emergency" for transparently political purposes.  Perhaps it was the growing public awareness that the mRNA "vaccines" caused more injuries than citizens were told and created fewer lasting protections than citizens were promised.

Judge orders NYPD union members fired over vax mandate reinstated.  In a major victory for members of the NYPD's largest police union, a judge ruled Friday cops who were fired for not getting vaccinated against the coronavirus have to be reinstated.  In the stunning decision, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Lyle Frank wrote that the city's vaccine mandate on the Police Benevolent Association was invalid "to the extent it has been used to impose a new condition of employment" on the union.  The mandate was also invalid because it issued enforcement beyond "monetary sanctions" prescribed in the law, Frank wrote — ordering that all PBA members put on leave or canned be reinstated.  It would be a "gross overstatement" of the city's Department of Mental Health and Hygiene to say it could enforce the vaccine mandate through termination, unpaid leave or suspension, Frank said.

Democrats Used A Massive Race Hoax To Gain Power.  [Scroll down] The only allowed narrative was that America is racist.  The pandemic created the perfect environment.  The only people allowed to escape during the lockdown were BLM activists because they were civil rights activists.  Besides, perpetuating the evolving racial hoax was more important than protecting people from a deadly disease.  Then, there were added daily reports that the pandemic was taking a disproportionately greater toll on Blacks.  The media repeatedly claimed that it was due to racist medical practitioners and hospitals.  No one mentioned a higher presence of comorbidities, and none noted when the disproportionality disappeared.  They also didn't say that Latinos were the group hit the hardest and Asians the least hard because the message was White racists, White privilege.

New Zealand's Jacinda Ardern at the U.N.: 'Disinformation' Should Be Controlled Like Guns, Bombs, and Nukes.  New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern called for more "collective" action in her address to the U.N. General Assembly on Friday, especially on the issues of climate change, nuclear non-proliferation, pandemic response, and opposing wars of aggression such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine.  Ardern's authoritarian impulses were on display in her call for tighter regulations on Internet speech, although she insisted she values free speech and merely wishes to cleanse "disinformation" from international discourse.  Ardern portrayed the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, which New Zealand addressed with some of the heaviest lockdowns to be found outside of communist China, as a painful lesson that "schooled" mankind in the importance of "collective action."  "It forced us to acknowledge how interconnected, and therefore how reliant we are on one another," she said of the pandemic.

US watchdog admits $46 billion in pandemic unemployment benefits was stolen by fraudsters.  Fraudsters stole nearly $46 billion in unlawful unemployment claims during the pandemic, the Labor Department concluded on Thursday — while warning that the actual figure may be even higher.  Criminals used inventive measures to access the COVID benefits, with more than 205,000 Social Security numbers that belonged to dead people being used to claim the cash.  Some schemes saw the Social Security numbers of prisoners being used, despite them being ineligible for the unemployment benefits.

Biden administration struggles to recover billions in stolen pandemic aid.  Billions of dollars meant to help people cope with the pain of the pandemic disappeared in fraud schemes big and small, and the government is only now taking stock of how extensive the abuse became.  The Justice Department charged 48 people this week with operating a massive fraud ring in Minnesota that drained $240 million from a pandemic hunger program intended to feed children.  Dozens of people allegedly made up names and ages for children they claimed to have fed, then pocketed the money for those fake meals.  While the scale of the scheme was unusual, the approach was not.  So much money flowed to programs with so little oversight that people all over the world managed to siphon off piles of cash that the government is unlikely ever to recover.

COVID-19 relief fraud likely 'biggest fraud' in US history, tax watchdog warns.  While the federal government has allotted more than $5 trillion to COVID-19 economic relief and stimulus, undetermined billions in taxpayer dollars have been fraudulently siphoned from the aid spending, likely amounting to the "biggest fraud that the country's seen," according to Americans for Tax Reform.  "The U.S. federal government has already dedicated over $5 trillion to combatting the COVID-19 pandemic," Dan Savickas, director of tech policy at Taxpayers Protection Alliance, told Just the News on Wednesday.  "These funds came with very few safeguards to ensure they ended up in the hands of families and businesses that actually needed it.  "It's estimated that every dollar of wages saved by the relief money cost American taxpayers $4.13. [sic]  This is not to mention also the inflation that came as a result of this profligate spending."

Are We Just One Big Storm Away Climate Lockdowns?  While we never thought that the coronavirus pandemic was engineered to soften us up for harsher climate lockdowns to come later, we did note that our ruling class was watching our reactions to its repressive rules to see how far it could go the next time.  Today we're alarmed that "the next time" might be here soon.  In November 2020, we said we were afraid that the country was being conditioned to just take whatever is dished out by power-hungry officials, elected and unelected, and were troubled that Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, could say "now is the time to do what you're told" with minimal condemnation and no demands that he be fired.  Nearly two years later, it's clear that our concerns were justified.

Fauci Mocked Mask-Wearers: 'Laughing Privately at the Americans He Was Fooling'.  Remember when Dr. Anthony Fauci went on every news channel wearing a mask telling Americans that the Coronavirus was basically a flesh-eating disease and if you went outside to live a normal life your going to be doomed?  Well apparently Fauci himself didn't even buy his own words.  A new book by former White House spokesman Brian Morgenstern captures Fauci's laissez-faire attitude about the whole so-called virus.  "[I]n January 2020, [Fauci] said the virus was nothing to worry about for the American people.  Then in the months that followed, he said that people should not wear masks and that they were ineffective.  By June or July, he had changed his tune and said everyone should be very concerned and that they should wear multiple masks and goggles," the book said.

Here's The Real Reason Handlers Rushed to Correct Joe's End Of The Pandemic Remark.  President Biden said in a 60 Minutes interview Sunday that the COVID-19 pandemic is a thing of the past.  "The pandemic is over," he said.  "We still have a problem with COVID.  We're still doing a lot of work on it.  But the pandemic is over.  If you notice, no one's wearing masks.  Everybody seems to be in pretty good shape, and so I think it's changing, and I think [the Detroit auto show resuming after three years] is a perfect example of it."  His handlers tried to correct the "confused" President!  The Biden administration is largely downplaying President Joe Biden's comments declaring the coronavirus pandemic "over," suggesting his remarks signal a continuation of the White House's evolving stance toward the pandemic over the past few months.

Kyrie Irving: COVID-19 mandates among 'biggest violations of Human Rights in history'.  Basketball star Kyrie Irving ripped as insufficient the latest moves Tuesday by New York Mayor Eric Adams to undo COVID-19 mandates.  The Brooklyn Nets All-Star, who played fewer than 30 games last season because of the city's vaccination rules, called the continuation of any mandates a human-rights violation.  "If I can work and be unvaccinated, then all of my brothers and sisters who are also unvaccinated should be able to do the same, without being discriminated against, vilified, or fired," he said on Twitter.

Fauci admits he knew 'draconian' lockdowns would have 'collateral negative consequences' on schoolchildren.  National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted Wednesday that he knew the "draconian" COVID-19 policies he pushed for would lead to "collateral negative consequences" for the "economy" and "schoolchildren."  Fauci's comments came during day one of The Atlantic Festival, a three-day convention put on by the media outlet The Atlantic featuring speeches and interviews from prominent members of the media, the government and political activists.  During the event, Fauci spoke with The Atlantic editor Ross Andersen in front of a live audience about his experiences as the leading medical professional working in the federal government during the COVID-19 pandemic.  In one segment of his talk, the doctor spoke about his guidance in instituting "draconian" pandemic guidance knowing full well there would be "collateral" damage stemming from it.

Labs, Lies, and COVID-19.  "Everyone had to agree to the narrative," enforced by Dr. Anthony Fauci and other health officials that the COVID-19 virus came from a "wet market" in Wuhan and not the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). And Fauci "clearly misled Congress," about funding dangerous gain-of-function research at the WIV.  So says Dr. Robert Redfield, former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, in a September 15 interview with Paul Thacker's Disinformation Chronicle newsletter.  "The potential for conspiracy is really on the other side," Redfield told Thacker.  "The conspiracy is [former NIH boss Francis] Collins, Fauci, and the established scientific community that has acted in an antithetical way to science."  And quite possibly antithetical to criminal law.  After going on record that "the most likely etiology of this pathology in Wuhan was from a laboratory," Redfield was ostracized and received death threats. "I expected it from politicians," Redfield said, "I didn't expect it from science."  In the science department, Redfield can demonstrate considerable expertise.

India: 32-Year-Old Runner Dies Suddenly of a Heart Attack Near Finish Line.  On Sunday, a 32-year-old runner collapsed and died suddenly from a heart attack a few hundred meters from the end of the popular 13-mile Satara Hill half marathon, the Times of India reported.  Raj Kantilal Patel, a father of a six-month-old girl, collapsed near Parange Chowk, about 250 meters from the Finish line.  "After he collapsed, the marathon organizers immediately took Patel to a hospital, where he was declared dead.  We have registered a case of accidental death, and an investigation into the incident is on," authorities said.

The Jab Put Me on a Journey I Didn't Expect — Or Want.  [Scroll down] Over 340,522 people have reported negative COVID vaccine reactions to the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  As of last May (only five months into the vaccine frenzy) 4496 people had died.  Statistically insignificant?  Maybe, or maybe not.  But in 1976 the government pulled the swine flu vaccine after only three people mysteriously died.

White House Clean-Up for Biden Turns Into Brazen Lying.  Joe Biden's recent 60 Minutes provided a boon of material on various topics.  From his dismissal of high inflation to his assertion that people are just psychologically incapable of being happy under his presidency, Biden did everything he could to confirm everything his critics have said about him.  Yet, because the president is uniquely bad at his job, he also managed to anger those on his own side.  It was this clip, where Biden says the "pandemic is over" that got the juices flowing of COVID-19 hysterics everywhere.  [Tweet with video clip]

White House spurs speculation when it overrules Biden on pandemic being over: 'He is not in charge'.  President Joe Biden's declaration of victory over COVID when he said that the pandemic was over triggered leftist dead-enders who bitterly cling to their masks and mandates and brought yet another correction from the White House that contradicted him while further confirming suspicions that he isn't the one running the show.  During a "60 Minutes" interview with CBS anchor Scott Pelley that aired on Sunday, Biden clearly stated, "the pandemic is over," while strolling through the Detroit Auto Show where he made another pitch for the forced conversion to electric vehicles last week.  "We still have a problem with COVID.  We're still doing a lot of work on it.  But the pandemic is over," Biden added, drawing howls of protest from angry leftists on Twitter as well as the White House quickly walking back what he said.

Pfizer accidentally proves original COVID Vaccine destroys the Immune System after publishing Study for new Omicron Jab.  We have been sold an antivaccine as a vaccine.  Official Government and Pfizer statistics prove that the "old" Pfizer COVID injection destroys the immune system at a rate greater than 1% per day.  Now, the newly published study for Pfizer's new bivalent COVID vaccine, to combat both the original strain and Omicron, prove the old Covid-19 vaccine had a minus-44% negative efficacy after just 30 days.  The same study also, unfortunately, proves the destruction of the immune system is only going to get worse, not better.

Shades of Mengele.  Every experimental vaccine was given without receiving the informed consent of the patient.  A terrible result of this unethical coercion — a reality that patently defies the Nuremberg Code — has been a wave of mysterious deaths; even typically healthy athletes have been hard-hit.  This has earned Dr. Fauci the reputation of having become an "Angel of Death" — a veritable Dr. Mengele in sheep's clothing.  The late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko referred to the COVID jab as "poison death liquid."  Zelenko pointed out that, in 1976, "the swine flu vaccine killed 26 people.  The entire program was scrubbed."  In the fall of 2021 when Zelenko spoke out, the VAERS database reported upwards of 16,310 deaths due to the COVID shot.  So, why is it that — long after these grave consequences came to light — Fauci still saw fit to promote this poison death shot?  Dr. Fauci falsely claimed that Hydroxychloroquine was ineffective against SARS-CoV-2 (aka COVID-19), although his own National Institute of Health's Virology Journal published a renowned article, in 2005, stating "that chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS-CoV infection of primate cells...."

Vax-injured advocates meeting with Feds.  A group of advocates for people injured by COVID-19 vaccines is meeting with federal officials in Washington, D.C. on Monday through Wednesday of this week to discuss the scope of the problem and the need for compensation for vax-injured people and survivors of those who have been killed by the vaccine and related issues.  React19 leaders will be meeting with federal senators, members of Congress, and Food and Drug Administration officials primarily to discuss changes they say need to be made to the government's Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.  The VICP currently is not compensating most COVID-19 vaccine-injured people for their injuries, though many have reported being injured by one or another of the hastily approved government-mandated COVID-19 vaccines.  Vax-injured advocates say a small percentage of all injures are being reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) because health officials are strongly discouraging doctors from diagnosing such injuries as such and reporting them.

North Carolina's treasurer slams state's hospital systems for Covid exploitation, abuse.  North Carolina's seven large hospital systems reaped billions in cash and financial investments after receiving taxpayer-funded Covid relief money, state Treasurer Dale R. Folwell noted.  At the same time, "one in five families is in medical debt collection" due to monopolistic practices, he charged.  In a Sept. 8 press release, Folwell's office stated that the hospitals "recorded $5.2 billion in net profits in 2021, when six hospital systems made higher net profits than in the years before the pandemic."

Joe Biden Puts Humpty Dumpty To Shame.  Over the weekend, Biden declared the pandemic is over.  Nobody knows how Biden defines this term.  Last year he called it the "pandemic of the unvaccinated," until people who'd been vaccinated and boosted started getting COVID — including Biden.  Just days ago, it seems, team Biden was warning about a winter surge.  We welcome this declaration that the pandemic is over, which should have been issued long ago.  But trust us, as soon as it's politically convenient, Biden will change the meaning of pandemic so he can say it's back.

GOP lawmakers question Biden's demand for $22B in COVID relief after declaring pandemic 'over'.  Republican lawmakers chided President Biden on Monday for declaring the COVID-19 pandemic "over" while he's pushing Congress to spend another $22 billion in emergency relief ahead of a looming fiscal deadline.  Rep. Mary Miller of Illinois was among the GOP lawmakers citing an inconsistency between the president's pandemic declaration on "60 Minutes" on Sunday and his emergency spending request.  "Now that Biden says the pandemic is over, he should END the military COVID vax mandate and STOP making young children wear masks in Head Start!" she tweeted.

Apparently they want their "emergency" powers to last forever.
People on Left Are Furious at Joe Biden for Declaring Pandemic Over.  Joe Biden announced that the "pandemic is over" during his "60 Minutes" interview that aired on Sunday night.  It's been "over" for most of us for some time.  But as I reported earlier, that throws all of his mandates and state mandates into question, not to mention the legal justification for his student loan bailout.  There was speculation that he was doing it to make things sound better before the election.  It's now causing a meltdown on the left.  So it may not have helped him with those on the left who still can't let it go.  [Numerous tweets]

The 'Big Guy' Resurrects Big Brother NewSpeakMisinformation is defined as incorrect information. Disinformation is misinformation known to be inaccurate and intentionally made public for some nefarious purpose.  Democrats applied those labels to any published report or data that contradicted official Democrat statements.  For Democrats, contrarian "misinformation" or "disinformation" is an Orwellian thoughtcrime to be suppressed at any cost.  When the architect of mRNA technology, Robert Malone, questioned the medical appropriateness of Biden's vaccine mandates, the Washington Post accused him of spreading "falsehoods," the White House labeled his reports misinformation, and Twitter banned him.

Biden Declares Pandemic "Over" Despite Continued Use in Policies and Programs.  There were a couple of eye-raising moments this weekend during an interview of President Joe Biden on CBS' "60 Minutes."  One was his continued blanket denial that his son Hunter had done anything that had any impact on him or the country.  However, it was the President's sudden announcement that the pandemic "is over" that may have taken some people by surprise, including Administration lawyers still using the pandemic as a basis for policies and programs.  This includes a major appellate case this week.  The Administration relied on the pandemic to justify the massive loan forgiveness program at a cost of as much as $1 trillion.  The move will be the subject of challenges and defended under the HEROES Act of 2003 as tied to a national emergency, "when significant actions with potentially far-reaching consequences are often required."  The pandemic is also being used by states continued crackdowns on those who refuse to get vaccines.  New York is moving to fire hundreds of teachers and school administrators.

Italian Parliament Calls Out Bill Gates For His Crimes Against Humanity, Call Him A Global Criminal.  As Italy prepares to elect a right-wing prime minister next week to punch back at the globalists destroying their country and culture, the Parliament took aim at what many consider the main architect of COVID vaccine tyranny.  Bill Gates was openly condemned as a global criminal on the floor of the Italian parliament and called out for his crimes against humanity as he pushed mass vaccination for every man, woman and child.  [Video clip]

Dr. Harvey Risch: Biggest Lie of last 29 Months of COVID Pandemic Was [about] Hydroxychloroquine.  Steve Deace recently interviewed Dr. Harvey Risch, Professor Emeritus of Epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health.  Dr. Risch's work has been cited nearly 50,000 times in journals and studies.  He is also an MD.  Steve Deace asked Dr. Risch what was the biggest lie of the last 29 months of COVID pandemic.  Dr. Risch says it was the lies about hydroxychloroquine in treating COVID 19.  The FDA hid the evidence that HCQ was effective in the early treatment of the disease.  Hundreds of thousands of people died as a result of this lie.  The CDC-FDA officials promoted the questionable experimental vaccines instead and this helped Big Pharma make billions.

Three in Ten Americans [are] Still Refusing to Get the Coronavirus Jab.  The percentage of Americans who are refusing to get a vaccine for the Chinese coronavirus is remaining consistent, as nearly three in ten have yet to receive a single jab for the virus, a poll from The Economist/YouGov found.  The survey found that 28 percent have not received any coronavirus jab from any manufacturer, compared to 72 percent who said they have.  What is more, 58 percent indicated that they are at least triple vaccinated.

DOD fast-tracked vaccine religious exemption denials, civil liberties law firm says.  American military leaders may have violated federal law in apparent rapid-fire denials of religious exemptions to the Defense Department's COVID-19 vaccination mandate, a national religious civil liberties law firm said late Friday [9/16/2022].  Memos obtained by Liberty Counsel written by acting DOD Inspector General Sean O'Donnell said the official warned Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin of "deliberate violation[s] of federal law" within the agency over the way denial requests were processed and turndowns were issued, the group said.  Of court-ordered reports from each branch of the armed forces on Feb. 4, 2022 — apparently the latest date for which figures are available — the group reported that "out of 24,818 religious exemption requests received, only four were granted," as opposed to 4,146 medical exemptions given.

Fauci 'Clearly Misled Congress' Over COVID-19 Origins: Former CDC Director.  The former director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), who has long suspected the hypothesis that COVID-19 leaked from a Chinese laboratory, said that he believes White House adviser Anthony Fauci misled Congress about controversial gain-of-function research.  Dr. Robert Redfield asserted in a new interview that "everyone had to agree to the narrative" pushed by Fauci and other health officials that the virus came from a "wet market" in Wuhan in 2019 and not the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  In an interview in early 2021 with CNN, Redfield, a longtime virologist, said the virus emerged from the lab, later sparking death threats against him and his family from prominent scientists.  And Fauci "may have overplayed his hand when he was so aggressive with Congress, saying that he was never involved in funding gain of function research," said Redfield, referring to the controversial research to genetically alters an organism to enhance certain biological functions including transmissibility. "There's too much evidence that's just not true."

850 more unvaxxed NYC teachers, aides fired for not complying with mandate.  The city Department of Education has axed another 850 teachers and classroom aides — bringing the total to nearly 2,000 school employees fired for failure to comply with a vaccine mandate increasingly struck down in court.  About 1,300 DOE employees who took a year's unpaid leave — with benefits — agreed to show proof of COVID vaccination by Sept. 5 or be "deemed to have voluntarily resigned."  Of those staffers, 450 got a shot by the deadline and "are returning to their prior schools or work locations," DOE officials told The [New York] Post.  They include some 225 teachers and 135 paraprofessionals.  The 850 let go makes roughly 1,950 DOE staffers terminated since the vaccine mandate took effect on Oct. 29, 2021.

Senator Ron Johnson Blasts Big Tech Execs for Double Standards on Misinformation.  Thursday, Senator Ron Johnson took it to Big Tech for their practices of silencing and banning one side of the vaccine debate while letting the pro-vaccine crowd get away with mis and disinformation.  His presentation left them silent.  "During that time period when President Biden lied to the American public, 'This was a pandemic of the unvaxed.  And if you got vaccinated, you're not going to go the hospital.  You're not going to be in [an] ICU unit, and you're not going to die.'  Well, 63.5 % of the people fully vaccinated were dying in England at the exact same time.  Why didn't you pull this?  Have you ever labeled the President the United States' comment as misinformation?  Have you ever done that?"  Silence ensues.  "Any of you?  I'll take that as a no."

Marine Corps removes harsh COVID vax penalties for religious accommodations.  A new administrative order issued by the Marine Corps has temporarily paused any punishments for Marines who request a religious exemption from receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.  The order, which was signed and posted Wednesday, directs commanders within the Marine Corps to halt all administrative actions against Marines, no matter the current stage of the separation process.  The administrative order stated that a U.S. Federal District Court in Florida issued a court order on Aug. 18 that prohibited the Corps from taking "certain actions" against service members seeking religious exemption.  Leathernecks who assert their rights under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) will no longer be punished for their refusal to get vaxxed.

The Four Roles Washington Plays in Healthcare.  In healthcare, Washington currently plays four different roles: tyrant, physician, thief, and lawbreaker.  What role should Washington play?  "Healthcare" as one word means the system.  As two words, health care refers to a fiduciary, legally protected, voluntary service relationship between one patient and one care provider: physician, nurse, or therapist.  Medical care is the service.  Healthcare is the system.  In the U.S., every adult has (or should have) medical autonomy — the right to choose one's own medical care.  By its regulatory powers, fiscal controls, and coercive tactics, Washington has taken away Americans' medical autonomy, replacing it with federal tyranny.  The vaccination mandate is an obvious example.  Based on recommendations by a non-practicing, bureaucrat M.D., Anthony Fauci, medical tyrant Biden forced Americans to accept injection of an untested, unproven, unsafe mRNA "jab."  Universal vaccination was imposed despite an extensive list of adverse effects as well as limited efficacy of mRNA vaccines.  Washington's tyranny suppressed medical freedom.

COVID Fascism Fizzles Out in New Zealand.  Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern (she/her) held such promise.  In the spring of 2020, the then 39-year-old New Zealand prime minister emerged on the world stage as the COVID drama's anti-Trump.  Ardern was calm, we were told, where Trump was capricious, compassionate where Trump was callous, and disciplined where Trump was improvisational.  She was, in short, the modern major general of the emerging fascist new world order, and the media swooned. [...] After seven weeks into a three-day Lockdown, Ardern finally abandoned her increasingly futile zero-COVID policy, and the virus ran through New Zealand's population in 2021-2022 much as it had done the rest of the world a year earlier.  Despite a vaccination rate of 77 percent and 18 months to prepare for an epidemic, more than one out of three New Zealanders contracted the disease, including Ardern herself.  Nearly 2,000 died.  As the cases mounted, the "swift and decisive" Ardern rotated her nation once more through the various levels of oppression.  To Ardern's seeming surprise, the gratuitous restrictions and mandates caused a major public backlash.

Leaked Video Shows Israeli Ministry of Health's Plan to Manipulate Expert Report on Adverse Events to Avoid Lawsuits.  Israeli health researcher and health journalist Dr. Yaffa Shir-Raz has released shocking new information about her findings and exposed Israel's cover-ups in reporting the adverse events related to Covid-19 vaccinations.  The Israeli Ministry of Health (MoH) discovered major safety issues with the COVID vaccines and hid the information from the public intentionally.  MoH distorted the findings of the expert.  Earlier this month, Dr. Yaffa took to Twitter to expose a leaked video where Prof. Mati Berkowitz, a pediatric specialist, head of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology unit at Shamir Medical Center, and head of the research team appointed by the Israeli Ministry of Health (IMOH) to examine the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine, caught lying and manipulating an expert report on adverse events.

Republicans Say 100K Troops Face Discharge over Biden Vaccine Mandate.  Republican lawmakers, led by Reps.  Mike Johnson (LA), Chip Roy (TX), and Thomas Massie (KY), are demanding answers about the effect of the vaccine mandate on military readiness in a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin first obtained by Breitbart News.  "The Biden Administration's military vaccine mandate is clearly harming military readiness by creating unnecessary recruiting and retention shortfalls," Johnson said in a statement.  "And now, after the Pentagon has tried, and failed, to make up the difference by reducing recruitment standards, over 100,000 active servicemembers — who taxpayers paid to train — face discharge during the worst recruiting year in our military's history," he said.

The Story of Jared Kushner and His Ventilators.  You know the phrase self-aware?  It does not apply to Jared Kushner, the former president's son-in-law.  He somehow weaseled his way into the center of COVID planning in the White House.  He dragged along two college buds, Nat Turner and Adam Boehler, two mega-rich kids without a lick of experience in pandemics or public health.  Together with totem Mike Pence, two lifetime medical bureaucrats Fauci and Birx, plus Pfizer board member Scott Gottlieb, they all came to have huge influence over the lives, liberty, and property of every American.  And they loved every minute, as Kushner's own book reveals.  There are so many things in this book to recount, it's impossible to discuss the whole thing.

CDC Director Admits Agency Gave False Information on COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Monitoring.  The director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has acknowledged publicly for the first time that the agency gave false information about its COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring.  Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the agency's director, said in a letter made public on Sept. 12 that the CDC did not analyze certain types of adverse event reports at all in 2021, despite the agency previously saying it started in February 2021.  "CDC performed PRR analysis between March 25, 2022, through July 31, 2022," Walensky said. "CDC also recently addressed a previous statement made to the Epoch Times to clarify PRR were not run between February 26, 2021, to September 30, 2021."  Walensky's agency had promised in several documents, starting in early 2021, to perform a type of analysis called Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR) on reports submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, which it helps manage.

CDC finally admits it botched COVID response.  It's been said that admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery.  Maybe that's what Rochelle Walensky, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, was looking toward when she conceded last week that the agency she manages botched its response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Her stunning admission came in reaction to an agency-initiated internal review that found the CDC wanting on multiple levels.  The review reportedly found that it "takes too long for CDC to publish its data and science for decision making," that its guidance is "confusing and overwhelming" and that agency staff turnover during the COVID response "created gaps and other challenges for partners."  Some of these failures, Walensky asserted, are a function of poor infrastructure, inadequate staffing and funding, and silos within the agency.

Scientists from Harvard & Johns Hopkins Found Covid-19 Vaccines [are] 98 Times Worse Than the Virus.  A new pre-print study by nine health experts from major universities showed that the COVID-19 vaccines are 98 times worse than the virus, and mandatory booster vaccination in college is "ethically unjustifiable," as reported by Epoch Times. [...] It was conducted by nine top scientists from the University of Washington, University of Oxford, University of Toronto, Harvard University — Harvard Medical School, University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), Johns Hopkins University — Department of Surgery, and others.  Using CDC and sponsor-reported adverse event data, researchers conclude that booster regulations may result in more harm than good.

'Unethical' and up to 98 Times Worse Than the Disease: Top Scientists Publish Paradigm-Shifting Study About COVID-19 Vaccines.  A team of nine experts from Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and other top universities has published paradigm-shifting research about the efficacy and safety of the COVID-19 vaccines and why mandating vaccines for college students is unethical.  This 50-page study, which was published on The Social Science Research Network at the end of August, analyzed CDC and industry-sponsored data on vaccine adverse events, and concluded that mandates for COVID-19 boosters for young people may cause 18 to 98 actual serious adverse events for each COVID-19 infection-related hospitalization theoretically prevented.  The paper is co-authored by Dr. Stefan Baral, an epidemiology professor at Johns Hopkins University; surgeon Martin Adel Makary, M.D., a professor at Johns Hopkins known for his books exposing medical malfeasance, including "Unaccountable: What Hospitals Won't Tell You and How Transparency Can Revolutionize Heath Care"; and Dr. Vinay Prasad, a hematologist-oncologist, who is a professor in the UCSF Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, as well as the author of over 350 academic and peer-reviewed articles.

They Fired Hundreds of Unvaxxed Nurses in Minnesota, and Now Thousands Are Going on Strike.  One of the more genius moves made by the Biden administration was forcing every worker that had a government dollar connected to it to get vaccinated.  Many people in the medical community refused to do it, resulting in the firing of nurses and doctors across the nation.  In Minnesota, employees from several different health systems refused to vaccinate, resulting in their termination.  While most employees from these systems did get vaccinated, systems saw double-digit percentages among the staff, and the bloodletting began.  The Mayo Clinic, in particular, fired 700 staffers.  The decision to fire nurses in an already unstable hospital environment caused a massive backfire, so much so that FEMA had to get involved to assist in the transportation of patients.  Now, thanks to the horrendous working conditions brought on by short-staffed hospitals, nurses in Minnesota are going on strike by the thousands.

California [is] on [the] Verge of Threatening [the] Licenses of Doctors Who Dissent on Covid-19.  California physicians who dissent from the prevailing view of Covid-19 and its vaccines could have their licenses revoked under a recently passed law.  California Assembly Bill 2098 states: "It shall constitute unprofessional conduct for a physician ... to disseminate misinformation or disinformation related to COVID-19, including false or misleading information regarding the nature and risks of the virus, its prevention and treatment; and the development, safety, and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines."  A finding of "unprofessional conduct" would force the state bodies that license and regulate doctors "to take action against" the accused, the bill notes.

Trump 2020 vs.  Trump 2024: The Differences to Expect.  [Scroll down] Exit polling showed that if any other human had done exactly what Trump actually did as president, he would have been easily re-elected, even with COVID and the disgusting and actually democracy-threatening change to the voting rules.  That personality — when he listened to it — served him well in office at times.  Operation Warp Speed epitomized Trump's [bold] attitude and was a clear success.  Only when he listened to official government doctors — Fauci, Birx, etc. — did he get it wrong.  What was clear that he felt out of his depth as the doctors drowned him with (questionable) facts and figures; like most of us, prior to COVID, he most likely actually trusted "scientists" to try to get it right, to have the proper experience, and to keep extraneous factors like politics out of the decision-making process.  Not tossing them aside in favor of a Great Barrington Declaration-type approach in the summer of 2020 was an unforced error; at a time when he should have gone with his gut, he went with his head.

A World on Fire.  [Scroll down]  These policies again trace to the lockdown era:  March 12, 2020, in particular, when the office of the president decided on its own to do the unthinkable and shut travel from Europe, UK, Australia, and New Zealand.  It caused family disruption, business loss, and tragedy all around.  It is still not normalized, which makes the point:  no one in Washington has any regrets.  This is the essence of policy in America today.  Truly people are being locked out of our country for being insufficiently loyal to Pfizer, which seems to be the real government here at home, at least as it pertains to public health.

1100 Athletes Die From Sudden Death From 1966-2004, At Least 673 Have Died Since January 2021, Number Likely Higher.  From January 2021 to April 2022, at least 673 athletes are said to have died from sudden death.  This number is only 428 deaths less than the 1100 known to have died as outlined by a study on sudden death in athletes from 1966 through 2004.  Those 1101 athlete deaths occurred over almost 40 years and yet 673 died over an only 16 month period since COVID vaccines have been introduced.  Good Sciencing has that number closer to 1323 and includes a comprehensive list of each athlete death.  The Gateway Pundit has reported on dozens of these athlete deaths including an 18-year-old high school athlete, a 24-year-old Irish soccer player, a 27-year-old doctor and triathlete and so, so many more.

CDC Admits Post-Vaccine Myocarditis Concerns That Were Labeled Covid Misinformation Are Legit.  When reports first surfaced in 2021 that some cases of myocarditis — the inflammation of the heart muscle, potentially leading to blood clots and heart attack or stroke — were potentially associated with the Covid-19 vaccine, the corporate media and its fact-checkers were quick to label them as misinformation, saying the benefits of the vaccine far outweigh its small risks.  A year later, though, the media can no longer deny that what they called misinformation actually has data to back it up.  As Matt Shapiro detailed in his Substack post on the matter, "Last year's misinformation on vaccine-associated myocarditis in young men is this year's well-established fact."

FDA Refuses to Provide Key COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Analyses.  U.S. drug regulators are refusing to provide key analyses of a COVID-19 vaccine safety database, claiming that the factual findings cannot be separated by internal discussions protected by law.  The Epoch Times asked the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in July for all analyses performed by the agency for the COVID-19 vaccines using a method called Empirical Bayesian data mining, which involves comparing the adverse events recorded after a specific COVID-19 vaccine with those recorded after vaccination with non-COVID-19 vaccines.  According to operating procedures laid out by the agency and its partner in January 2021 and February 2022, the FDA would perform data mining "at least biweekly" to identify adverse events "reported more frequently than expected following vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines."  The agency would perform the mining on data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  In a recent response, the FDA records office told The Epoch Times that it would not provide any of the analyses, even in redacted form.

Never Forget the COVID Fascists.  If ever the American government viewed its authority as "absolute," if even individual Americans were under the notion that they were "only to be conceived of in their relation to the State," it was shortly after COVID-19 entered the U.S.  I submit to you that the COVID policies — shutdowns and lockdowns; "stay home, stay safe;" mandatory masking, social distancing, testing, and vaccines; and so on — perpetuated by the American left and those like-minded were the greatest demonstration of fascism the United States has ever known.  In the nearly 250-year history of the U.S., never before has the American government exercised such power over its citizenry as it did in the name of "slowing the spread," "following the science," and the like.  And never before in the history of the U.S. has the exercise of government power been so misinformed and misguided, with such disastrous results.

What Drives Government Action?  Only when the nature of government is understood do the lockdowns make perfect sense.  Whether or not there was ever a rational basis to advocate such a policy was never the issue.  It was about grabbing the opportunity to run tyrannical proclamations up the flagpole to see who would salute.  The reality that lockdowns and masking served no positive purpose and, in fact, did monumental damage, does not mean they won't be ordered again at the next opportunity.  It is what authoritarians do.  It is the nature of government.  The lesson of all this is that the we, the people, are best served when government is small.  Our problems do not exist because we pay too little tax or are allowed too many liberties.  Quite the contrary.  We can't turn back the hands of time.  But we can decide and commit to the direction in which we must go.

Why doctors aren't speaking out.  You ask why doctors are silent.  The electronic medical records (EMRs) are a ball and chain to physicians.  We are tracked through them.  When I wrote a prescription for Ivermectin for a patient, with informed consent (she was vaccinated), I received 5 letters threatening my medical license, my hospital privileges, and my insurance contracts.  I would not have received 5 letters if I killed someone in negligence or malpractice.  If I have my license pulled, I will no longer be able to help my patients.  I speak to patients on a one-on-one basis, but speaking out would destroy my family.  I have children.  Quite frankly, I have seen that patients want me to risk myself for them, but are wholly unwilling to support their physician.  The population is lazy.  I can save your life, but I get paid less for my work than some hairdressers.  My education is not valued by society, as supported by the rise of the "advanced practice provider."  I am almost done with my profession.  I hope to retire in the next 1-3 years, decades before I had planned.  I love what I do, but cannot take this toxic and broken system any longer.  This is why so many have retired in the past couple years, and this trend will continue.

NIH deleted coronavirus data at China's request?  According to a report in theblaze.com, the National Institute of Health (NIH) deleted certain sequences of coronavirus data from the agency's Sequence Read Archive.  This was allegedly done early in the pandemic, at the request of Chinese researchers.  Doctor Jesse Bloom, a virologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, published a study in June of 2021 that identified the missing sequences and recovered the files from the Google Cloud, from which he performed an analysis to learn more about the origins of the virus.  Why was the data deleted?

Rand Paul Thinks Fauci Is Hiding Something.  Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) blasted "America's doctor," NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, for a COVID "cover-up" involving America's Big Tech firms.  "I think that all of America should be appalled that America's doctor, the leading expert on COVID and public health, doesn't want to divulge information, doesn't want to divulge his communications with Big Tech," Paul said on Fox News Wednesday night.  I believe the cover-up is probably real and that Paul's use of "America's doctor" was likely facetious.  Daring opinions I just shared, I know.  Paul, himself a physician, said, "It goes even beyond" Fauci keeping secret communications with social media firms like Facebook.  The diminutive celebrity medical spokesmodel also refused to discuss $193 million in COVID royalties paid to nearly 2,000 NIH scientists."  Fauci's modus operandi, Paul said, "is to cover up and try to not allow any sunshine on any of his activities.  That should be a tip-off as to his motives."  It's a bit sinister that NIH scientists can be paid secret royalties — averaging about $107,000 — from pharmaceutical firms whose products that NIH recommends or that Washington mandates.  It gets worse.

Hochul gave COVID test contract to campaign donor that charged taxpayers double.  Gov. Kathy Hochul had New Yorkers pay twice as much for COVID tests from a company tied to nearly $300,000 in donations to her campaign compared to other state vendors, a new report details, raising fresh concerns of alleged pay-to-play behavior ahead of the Nov. 8 election.  "Whether it was pay-to-play or total incompetence — New York taxpayers and then the federal taxpayers got massively ripped off," John Kaehny, of the good-government group Reinvent Albany, said of the Digital Gadgets deal funded by New York taxpayers with the help of federal relief aid.  While some companies charged the state just $5 for rapid tests, the N.J.-based Digital Gadgets got as much as $13 per unit in a total of $637 million worth of no-bid deals for millions of tests as Hochul pushed schools to stay open amid the omicron wave last year, according to the Times Union[.]

Zero Covid has cost New Zealand dearly.  Throughout much of the pandemic, proponents of Zero Covid and lockdown have promoted the island nation of New Zealand as a success story.  Since the beginning of March 2022, however, this success has turned sour.  Covid cases in New Zealand have exploded, with cumulative cases per capita now exceeding US levels.  If New Zealand case rates continue to grow as they have in the recent past, cumulative per-capita cases will exceed those in the UK and the EU in the coming months. [...] The Zero Covid success, however, was far from costless or complete.  Closed borders meant many ex-pats faced steep hurdles returning home, even to care for sick family members.  The two-month-long lockdown at the beginning of the pandemic led many to delay essential health services, subsequently causing overburdened hospital systems and long delays in medical care for tens of thousands of New Zealanders that continue to this day.

Judge Orders Fauci, Other Top Officials to Produce Records for Big Tech-Government Censorship Lawsuit.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and other top Biden administration officials who were resisting efforts to obtain their communications with Big Tech companies must hand over the records, a federal judge ruled on Sept. 6.  U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty, a Trump appointee, ordered the government to quickly produce documents after it was sued by the attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri over alleged collusion with Big Tech firms such as Facebook.  The initial tranche of discovery, released on Aug. 31, revealed that more than 50 government officials across a dozen agencies were involved in applying pressure to social media companies to censor users.  But some of the officials refused to provide any answers or answer all questions posed by the plaintiffs.  Among them: Fauci, who serves as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden.

Judge orders Fauci, White House press secretary to testify in social media censorship lawsuit.  A federal judge has knocked down the government's objections to require White House chief medical adviser Anthony Fauci and press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to answer "interrogatories" in the social media censorship lawsuit by Louisiana and Missouri attorneys general Jeff Landry and Eric Schmitt.  Their First Amendment suit has already uncovered intimate cooperation between social media companies and 50-plus federal officials at a dozen agencies or components, including the White House, to flag, throttle and remove purported misinformation about COVID-19, election security and the Hunter Biden laptop story.  U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty said Tuesday "the requested information is obviously very relevant" to the collusion allegations, citing Fauci's communications related to "alleged suppression of speech relating to the lab-leak theory of COVID-19's origin, and to alleged suppression of speech about the efficiency of masks and COVID-19 lockdowns."

The FDA's mass murder of more than half a million Americans.  [Scroll down] We now know that what we hypothesized based on preliminary data is true.  In fact, the evidence that HCQ could have taken death off the table for over half a million Americans is now overwhelming.  Consider that as of August 2022, there have been 354 studies of HCQ as a treatment for COVID-19 involving 5,764 scientists and 482,120 patients in 51 countries.  Meta-analysis across these studies demonstrates a resounding 57-81% improvement in mortality when given in early treatment and a 41% reduced hospitalization.  To put this in "blood on the FDA's hands" terms, this meta-analysis indicates that if physicians had been allowed to freely prescribe HCQ off-label to outpatients within the first seven days of their symptoms, anywhere from 570,000 to 810,000 Americans would still be alive today of the million Americans who lost their lives.

The failure of the mRNA shots is on display for all with open eyes.  [Scroll down] New Zealand is a perfect case study, because the country had hardly any COVID deaths for the first two years of the pandemic.  As an island state, it clearly kept out most of the virus well through 2021, once every vulnerable adult had a chance to be vaccinated.  According to the NZ ministry of health, every age bracket has achieved higher than a 90% vaccination rate except for those ages 5-11.  Also, more than half of all adults, especially those in vulnerable categories, have boosters.  Thus, New Zealand lived out the COVID bio-state dream.  The population fully locked down until three doses were available.  Thus, they should be experiencing no COVID, and certainly no COVID deaths, right?  Well, in fact, New Zealand experienced nearly all of its deaths precisely after all of this was accomplished in March 2022!  And with the mildest of variants!  [Chart]  And roughly 98% of all confirmed cases in New Zealand occurred after February 2022.  [Another chart]  Consider the fact that as late in the pandemic as Nov. 4, 2021, New Zealand recorded just 29 COVID deaths.  Now the country has 469.  Something is not right.

How China Is Handling COVID Nowadays.  China isn't exactly forthcoming with verifiable statistics.  The Chinese will report numbers of positive cases and the numbers of cities on lockdown; they'll boast how this shows their commitment to the "zero COVID" goal of the government that all but certainly created and released the virus in the first place.  But they won't share such data as how serious these cases really are, whether people are still dying of this at all, or whether there is in fact any scientific justification for these closures today... especially after two years of global experience indicating that lockdowns don't have any real effect on the spread, and the fact that current iterations of this very flexible virus aren't substantially different from the traditional "seasonal flus" to which the world has been accustomed for generations.

Democrats Dangerously Copy The Tactics Of Famous Fascists.  Beginning in 2020, in response to COVID, primarily Democrat-run states and municipalities across the country instituted draconian lockdown edicts that eviscerated individual rights, destroyed small businesses, and ostracized or arrested individuals who resisted.  Simultaneously teachers' unions nationwide forced school shutdowns, leading to extraordinary declines in student learning and dramatic increases in youth depression.  Those seen questioning the efficacy of or damage from such lockdowns and shutdowns were unconstitutionally muzzled when the administration covertly worked with social media companies to silence and de-platform them.  The Biden administration issued mandates for rapidly developed vaccines of dubious efficacy and unknown danger; then coerced private enterprises to enforce them.  Questioning that policy or non-acquiescence with it was seen as a proxy for opposition to the regime, so the government and allied businesses threatened and destroyed livelihoods.

Anthony Fauci Suggests Most Americans Will Need Annual mRNA Coronavirus Vaccine.  Most Americans will need to get an annual vaccine for the Chinese coronavirus, Anthony Fauci, outgoing chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, said this week.  Fauci suggested that it is becoming "clear" that coronavirus jabs, in the future, should be treated and viewed simply as an annual flu shot.

I Feel the Earth Move Under my Feet.  [Scroll down] COVID, of course was a 9.0 quake and we're still dealing with the tsunami that followed.  We daily read about young, vaccinated athletes who have dropped dead mid-game or died in their sleep.  The government-imposed shutdown and vaccination has not only negatively affected both our mental and physical health, but it has destroyed any trust we had left for both the lying government and the medical community.  Mostly, COVID gave us a taste for what living in a dictatorship is like.  I'd like to see what the history books record about this event in, say, 100 years.

The Public Face of Vaccine Supremacy.  It has been more than nine months since the Brownstone Institute published a report on 53 studies from the United States, Israel, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere showing that the then exploding COVID infection rate correlated with vaccination rates.  These studies raise the question of whether the vaccinated are putting the unvaccinated at risk.  Since the Brownstone study was published, first, the United State Supreme Court invalidated the Biden administration's vaccine mandate for businesses.  Second, the Danish government issued a policy declaring that it is no longer possible for young people to get vaccinated, citing the low risk posed by the virus.  Third, results of a national test released on August 31, 2022, show that U.S. elementary school students' math and reading scores plummeted to the lowest level in decades amid the school shutdowns implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic."  Shutdowns erased two decades of educational progress.

24 LA School Superintendents Demand Health Director Ferrer Ease Her COVID Mandates.  The superintendents of 24 Los Angeles County school districts (there are over 70 in the county) signed on to a letter demanding that Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer ease her onerous COVID mask policies and bring them into line with California's state guidelines.  Ferrer has notoriously presided over one of the strictest pandemic regimes in the country, and as recently as last month was angling to require forced masking in schools this fall.  She only backed off after public outcry and the exposure of numerous scandals within the department.  The County Department of Public Health (LADPH) oversees a population of over 10 million people, so Ferrer's decisions carry great weight.

'Foreign Metal-Like Objects' Found in 94 Percent of People Who Took mRNA Vaccines: Italian Doctors.  Three Italian surgeons published a study analyzing peripheral blood drops from 1,006 symptomatic subjects after they got a Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna mRNA injection and found 94 percent of them to have "aggregation of erythrocytes and the presence of particles of various shapes and sizes of unclear origin," one month after inoculation.  Erythrocytes are a type of red blood cell that carries oxygen and carbon dioxide.  "What seems plain enough is that metallic particles resembling graphene oxide and possibly other metallic compounds, like those discovered by Gatti and Montanari (Montanari & Gatti, 2016; Gatti & Montanari, 2012, 2017, 2018), have been included in the cocktail of whatever the manufacturers have seen fit to put in the so-called mRNA 'vaccines.'"

Microscopy review finds that 94% of covid-vaccinated people with health issues have distinctly abnormal blood.  Long after a person gets "vaccinated" for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19), his or her blood remains persistently tainted with foreign matter, a new study out of Italy has found.  Drs.  Franco Giovannini, M.D., Riccardo Benzi Cipelli, M.D., and Giampaolo Pisano, M.D. — all surgeons — conducted a microscopy analysis on blood samples collected from people who got "fully vaccinated" for the Fauci Flu.  They found that 94 percent of the samples were clearly unhealthy, suggesting that the shots leave behind permanently unclean blood.  Describing the tainted blood as "abnormal," the study explains that foreign structures plague the blood of the fully jabbed.  In some people, they form crystalline-type structures.  In others, they create long-forming tubes and fibers that damage blood flow.  These mystery substances end up clotting, in many cases, cutting off circulation and creating a heart attack or even death.

Covid Vax Regret: Horrific injuries, lack of support, and inexcusable "black hole" for injury claims.  Impaired immunity is about the worst "side effect" from COVID vaccines that the majority of Americans would want to avoid, not run towards, seeing as how so many people are already suffering from obesity, cancer, heart disease, diabetes and dementia.  Fear of COVID outweighed the fear of this because people have been brainwashed by their televisions, their newspapers and those pharma-shilling websites, so they run out and get jabbed up with Fauci Flu shots to try to save themselves from sure destruction, when that ironically is what they are injected with.  The already-immune-compromised "sheeple" are getting "shot" up with millions of toxic prions (that keep multiplying as mRNA) that drive chronic inflammation, while devastating the immune system, which in turn exacerbates their current health "conditions," (preventable diseases and disorders), and sometimes to the point of "unexplainable" sudden death.  Is it too late for the injected sheeple?  Can they sue?  Will the next "flu" kill them all off, or will it be unexplainable, sudden-inflicted myocarditis?  Are all the microscopic blood clots the REASON for the heart irregularities, cancer reemergence and spontaneous abortions?  This deserves careful consideration.

Ivermectin reduces COVID death risk by 92%, peer-reviewed study finds.  A new peer-reviewed study found that regular use of ivermectin reduced the risk of dying from COVID-19 by 92%.  The large study was conducted by Flávio A. Cadegiani, MD, MSc, PhD.  Cadegiani is a board-certified endocrinologist with a master's degree and doctorate degree in clinical endocrinology.  The peer-reviewed study was published on Wednesday by the online medical journal Cureus.  The study was conducted on a strictly controlled population of 88,012 people from the city of Itajaí in Brazil.  Individuals who used ivermectin as prophylaxis or took the medication before being infected by COVID experienced significant reductions in death and hospitalization.

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens tests positive for coronavirus again.  Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens announced Tuesday morning that he has tested positive for COVID-19 again.  Dickens said on Twitter that he plans to conduct virtual meetings from home for the next few days until he tests negative.  He assured residents that he's planning resume his normal work routine real soon.  "I am feeling fine," Dickens said in his Twitter video.  "I have minor symptoms, and I think that's because I am vaccinated and I'm boosted so I encourage you to also be vaccinated and boosted."

The Mysteries of Long COVID-19.  When the original strain of COVID-19 arrived in spring 2020, a pandemic soon swept the country.  By far most survived COVID-19.  But hundreds of thousands did not.  American deaths now number well over 1 million.  Amid the tragedy, there initially was some hope that the pernicious effects of the disease would all disappear upon recovery among the nearly 99% who survived the initial infection.  Vaccinations by late 2020 were promised to end the pandemic for good.  But they did not.  New mutant strains, while more infectious, were said to be less lethal, thus supposedly resulting in spreading natural immunity while causing fewer deaths from infection.  But that too was not quite so.  Instead, sometimes the original symptoms, sometimes frightening new ones, not only lingered after the acute phase, but were of increased morbidity.

Embalmers Are Making Shocking Discoveries in the Blood of the Dead.  It sounds like a bad horror movie script from the 1960s, but it isn't.  The Epoch Times is reporting that embalmers from around the nation are speaking out about strange blood clots they have been finding in the bodies of the deceased since around 2020 or 2021.  The clots are said to be white, fibrous, and rubbery and can be the size of a grain of sand or as long as a human leg.  They can be as thick as a pinky finger.  One embalmer claimed they can be "nearly the strength of steel."  Embalmers across the nation are contending that these clots are not normal.

More Than Half of Babies, Toddlers Surveyed Had 'Systemic Reaction' After COVID-19 Vaccine.  In a CDC survey of over 13,000 children, more than 55 percent of the subjects between the ages of 6 months and two years had a "systemic reaction" in response to their first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, the CDC said on Sept. 1.  A systemic reaction is a response beyond the injection site.  The CDC said almost 60 percent had a systemic reaction to the second dose of the Moderna vaccine.  While the most common systemic reactions were fatigue, fever, irritability, and crying, parents of more than 6 percent of the children in the study said their child was unable to perform normal activities after the second dose of either the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine.  The CDC collected the data through a program called V-Safe — a smartphone-based monitoring system that operates through an app that parents download to their phones.

Numerous Long, Fibrous Clots That Lack Post-Mortem Characteristics.  Several embalmers across the country have been observing many large, and sometimes very long, "fibrous" and rubbery clots inside the corpses they treat, and are speaking out about their findings.  Numerous embalmers from different states confirmed to The Epoch Times that they have been seeing these strange clots, starting from either 2020 or 2021.  It's not yet known if the cause of the new clot phenomenon is COVID-19, vaccines, both, or something different.  The Epoch Times received additional videos and photos of the anomalous clots, but could not upload them due to the level of gore.  Mike Adams, who runs an ISO-17025 accredited lab in Texas, analyzed clots in August and found them to be lacking iron, potassium, magnesium, and zinc.

Obedience is a killer: 91% of Biden voters took the death jab.  A new poll from The Economist and covered by Breitbart News has found that the vast majority of both Biden and Trump voters were easily tricked into taking a suicide shot falsely labeled the "covid-19 vaccine."  According to the poll, 91% of Biden voters took at least one of the jabs, most likely because those who support Biden are obedient, oblivious NPCs who blindly trust government and corporations with their lives, even when those governments and corporations are quite literally trying to exterminate them. [...] I have interviewed several experts about these clots, including Dr. Jane Ruby, Dr. Judy Mikovitz and others, and the best conclusion from the data so far is that these clots are aggregate proteins being constructed by the body in response to mRNA instructions.  These are not "blood" clots, they are fibrous, protein clumps that are self-assembling (growing) inside blood vessels and arteries.  As they grow larger, they block blood flow, leading to stroke, heart attacks, embolisms, etc.  Many of these end in death.  Because these clots / biostructures are getting larger (i.e. "growing") inside people's bodies, they are like ticking time bombs of inevitable death.  With each passing month, those who took multiple vaccine jabs are inching closer to instant death due to the clots.  Between now and the 2024 elections, it seems likely that millions of Americans will be dead from these clots.  Democrats will be disproportionately killed by this phenomenon, as will White liberal women who were the most obedient in taking the jabs.

Plandemic snake oil salesmen now pushing mRNA nasal spray; call for second Operation Warp Speed.  The profit streams for Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) medical garbage — i.e., masks and "vaccines" — are quickly dying off, which explains the fresh push for another Operation Warp Speed grift.  Those who made obscene profits from the first Operation Warp Speed, which was proudly orchestrated by Donald Trump, claim that the latest alleged variant of "Omicron," aka Moronic in anagram, only responds to a new nasal spray "vaccine."  And the only way to get this new mRNA mist into people's nasal cavities is for the United States government to dump billions of dollars into fast-tracking its production and release.  Just like Trump did with the first so-called "vaccine," which was made possible with a $10 billion payment of taxpayer monies to Big Pharma, the latest grifters in government and "science" say that the all-new nasal mRNA vaccine needs a massive cash infusion as part of Operation Warp Speed 2.0.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Attacks Biden Regime for Blocking Life Saving Treatment Ivermectin Against COVID-19.  For almost three years, The Gateway Pundit has been reporting about the efficacy of Ivermectin and HCQ in treating COVID-19.  There have now been 90 Ivermectin COVID-19 controlled studies from 963 scientists in 27 countries that show an 83%, 62%, and 39% improvement for prophylaxis, early, and late treatment respectively in COVID patients.  "178 ivermectin COVID-19 studies, 127 peer-reviewed, 90 comparing treatment and control groups.  Ivermectin has been officially adopted for early treatment in all or part of 22 countries (38 including non-government medical organizations)," according to the COVID-19 treatment studies tracker website.

LA Parks Requires Indoor Masking For Sports Despite Sweltering Heat Wave.  Los Angeles often leads the way in nonsensical, dangerous mandates and regulations, and now, as the city copes with a record heat wave, the Department of Recreation and Parks is nevertheless requiring kids to wear masks indoors at all its facilities.  I'm sure playing basketball in a sweaty face-covering obstructing your breathing is healthy on so many levels.  [Tweet]  The Park Department's website lists its requirements on its website in large font, all-caps text. [...] Doesn't that read like it was written two years ago?  When almost everything has returned to some sense of normalcy, why would LA Parks enforce requirements that are dangerous and counter-productive?  Many doctors and scientists claim that masks don't even do much if anything to stop the spread of COVID.

The Gavel Project Advocates for Elementary School Children Targeted for Mask Non-Compliance.  Back in February of 2022, Managing Editor Jennifer Van Laar covered the sad saga of Kamdin Hernandez, a 9-year-old boy with ADHD who was targeted, forced to sit outdoors, and harassed by the staff and administrators of the Garden Grove Elementary School in Simi Valley, California over his refusal to wear a mask.  When Hernandez's father advocated for his son, a criminal complaint was filed against him for "campus disruption."  Apparently, this pattern of targeting children has been occurring in other schools across the state.  As the cases unfold, these incidents bear the earmarks of First Amendment violations.

Anthony Fauci [is] Now Warning of a 'Pretty Bad Flu Season'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is now warning of a "pretty bad flu season," urging Americans to get flu shots when they become available this year.  Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), chief of the NIAID Laboratory of Immunoregulation, and chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, is stepping down after the midterm elections and warned in an interview this week that the U.S. is expected to face a "pretty bad flu season" this year.

Biden's Teetering House of Cards.  Biden's house of cards must collapse.  The American people must wake up to what this regime is doing, what it is taking from us, what it is giving away.  The lockdowns and vaccine mandates should be evidence enough to prove his malice.  Was the pandemic real or was it planned as suggested by Event 201?  Was it a plot to defeat Trump with lockdowns and mail-in voting?  The vaccines have killed and injured hundreds of thousands of people, many of them young and athletic.  The excess mortality is up nearly 50%.  The vaccines are dangerous and everyone knows this now, but the Biden administration is still promoting them.  Are they a depopulation scheme?  Who knows?

More frightening news about fertility and the mRNA shots, this time from Singapore.  Like other East Asian countries, Singapore is suffering severe baby bust.  The average woman in Singapore has fewer than 1.2 children, barely half the birth rate needed to avert a long-term decline in population.  As low as the birth rate was, though, it had remained stable for a decade.  Even Covid did not meaningfully change the number of births — 39,259 in 2019, 38,590 in 2020, and 38,672 in 2021.  In the first two months of 2022, Singapore received welcome news.  Births actually rose about 7.5 percent.  Then came March.  Again, Singapore began mass mRNA vaccinations of women (and men) of childbearing age in June 2021; March 2022 is exactly nine months later.  In March, the increase in births abruptly reversed.  Between March and June 2022 — the most recent month for which figures are available — Singapore has recorded about 1,000 fewer live births compared to 2021, a decline of 8.5 percent.  The drop has been consistent each month.

So Much For Science: Vaccine industry no longer even bothering to test new covid shots before unleashing them onto the public.  We are told that the newest formulation of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "booster" shot for the "Omicron" (Moronic) subvariant is ready for public release, even though the mystery concoction has never been safety tested.  According to reports, the vaccine industry has decided to not finish testing the injections on humans before asking the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to approve them.  And it appears that the FDA is fully on board with the plan.  Rather than wait to see how the jabs perform in real-life humans, the FDA is slated to just pull random data from animal research involving other jabs to issue authorization for the new covid booster jabs.  "Real world evidence from the current mRNA Covid-19 vaccines, which have been administered to millions of individuals, show us that the vaccines are safe," declared current FDA Commissioner Robert Califf in a tweet.

Test scores show how teacher's union head Randi Weingarten damaged an entire generation of kids.  In a surprise to nearly no one, children's reading and math scores have plummeted.  National Assessment of Educational Progress, nicknamed "the nation's report card," results show the first-ever drop in math and the largest drop in reading in more than 30 years.  Black children had an even bigger collapse in scores.  Decades of educational progress undone.  Poof.  Horrific.  Stupid.  Unnecessary.  We know the school closures did this.  It wasn't the COVID virus.  It was the hyper-political reaction, from the left, on reopening schools during the pandemic.  The orders came from the top.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued the directives.  Kids had to be kept six feet apart in classrooms.  Why?  To this day, no one knows.  It made no sense when implemented, since we knew the COVID virus was airborne, and it made even less sense when it arbitrarily switched it to three feet later in the 2021 school year.  Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, kept flipping back and forth on school opening before finally settling on the nakedly partisan position of arguing that President Biden's spending plan must pass before schools could open.  This was in February 2021, when schools around the country in places that didn't live or die by his whims had been open for months.

Trends in COVID Anxiety.  Today the New York Times published the results (and interpretation) of its latest COVID poll.  While the interpretation is full of the typical unsubstantiated false claims supporting the approved narrative, which we have come to expect from corporate media, the poll itself is well worth examining.  Examples illustrating my point regarding the approved narrative include the following gems, beginning with the now obligatory blaming of President Trump and unnamed "Republicans" for the mass formation hypnosis which a large fraction of the country has been suffering.  In short, this argument seems to be "the other side made us go crazy".

Biden's White House Colluded With Big Tech To Gag Covid Dissenters Like Alex Berenson.  As far as the managerial class was concerned, Twitter's permanent ban of journalist and author Alex Berenson in August 2021 was entirely justified.  Indeed, most of the reaction to his ban consisted of mockery of the lawsuit he subsequently filed to force Twitter to reinstate him.  Since his ban, Berenson has not only been vindicated, but news surfaced that his silencing was the direct result of a request from the White House.  Documents Berenson obtained during the discovery phase of the lawsuit he filed against Twitter illustrate how the government actively works to shut down free speech on issues of public interest.  Berenson's criticisms of the Covid vaccines, which he claimed were ineffective and possibly harmful, came exactly at the time when the federal government, as well as many states and cities, were using every available coercive means at their disposal to force Americans to take them.  As such, his speech was deemed extremist and needed to be suppressed to save lives during the pandemic.

Seven Dead Doctors in 14 Days Don't Lie.  In Canada they're obsessed with the COVID-19 vaccine.  The government is ruthless to the point of appearing criminally insane.  If you don't get vaccinated, it's difficult to live a normal life.  And you absolutely can't practice medicine anywhere in Canada.  And they don't count you as vaxxed if you took one or even two COVID-19 vaccines.  Nope.  In Canada, you need four vaccines.  Virtually everyone is vaccinated.  There is no choice — if you want to avoid arrest, keep your money, keep your dog, keep your job and participate in society.  I think there's a country music song in there somewhere!  So, we know all the Canadian doctors are triple- or quadruple-vaccinated.  That's a certainty.  And yet we also know five doctors died in a matter of a few days in one city — Toronto.  FIVE.  We also know seven Canadian doctors died in one 14-day period.  We also know 14 Canadian doctors (at least) died in the past nine months.

'Unknown Cause' is the Top Cause of Death in Canada!  An unusual story surfaced in Alberta, Canada, last month which is just now starting to gain traction around the world.  Canadian doctors and a civil liberties lawyer in the Canadian province of Alberta are raising concerns about a growing trend of deaths labeled as "unknown causes" after an unprecedented increase in such deaths was recorded in 2021.  This new category on autopsy reports and death records now tops 'Covid-19,' which was added to Alberta's death tally in 2020.  A study looking at excess deaths in Alberta was quietly released in March in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases[.] [...] The unknown causes of death category began appearing on the list in 2019.  There is no record of it appearing before that year which is most odd.

Reasons Never to Vote Democrat Again, Vol.  I: COVID Tyranny Must Be Punished.  My biggest fear for November is that people will have the attention span of a puppy chasing fireflies and vote Democrat because gas is "down" to $3.25 on Election Day.  So I'm going to do everything I can, every day, to remind people that Democrats are horrible lizard people who have no place in our society, much less government. [...] The Democrats used COVID-19 as a dress rehearsal for communism.  Now we know that they lied about almost everything COVID-related.  Bootlickers in the news media spread the lies, and Big Tech stooges like Twitter and Facebook did their best to silence people telling the truth.  Sadly, most Americans were okay giving up their freedoms in the name of "safety."  Please take three minutes and thirty-seven seconds to watch this video about some of the lies told by Dr. Birx, Trump's Coronoavirus response coordinator, and Dr. Fauci, as well as some of the out-of-thin-air science-free decisions Dr. Birx made in order to lock us down for no justifiable reason.  [Video clip]

Unvaxxed Coast Guard cadets given 24 hours to vacate campus.  Coast Guard Academy cadets who sought a religious exemption from the mandate for the experimental COVID-19 vaccine — which has not prevented infection or transmission as promised — were given 24 hours to leave campus upon notification of the denial of their request.  After being notified of their dismissal Aug. 18, the cadets also were given no further information regarding their future in the service, reported Just the News.

Biden can't decide whether or not we're still in a pandemic.  President Joe Biden made a campaign promise to "shut the virus down."  He made this claim repeatedly because his advisers thought he had stumbled into a clever saying about not shutting down the country again.  Now, almost two full years into his term, Biden is using presidential authority he believes he has under the 2003 HEROES Act to suspend student loan payments once again and, on top of that, attempt unilaterally to waive up to $20,000 in Pell Grant student loans or $10,000 in other loans.  It was on March 13, 2020, that President Donald Trump declared a nationwide emergency pursuant to Sec. 501(b) of the Stafford Act, making the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency.  Biden, in abusing this power, is going against his own administration's legal arguments concerning the declaration from earlier this year.

Patient Betrayal: The Corruption of Healthcare, Informed Consent and the Physician-Patient Relationship.  1000 studies on adverse effects caused by COVID-19 Vaccination.

Experts 'Baffled' As 30 Young, Healthy Fully Jabbed Doctors Suddenly Drop Dead.  Young, healthy doctors are dropping like flies in Canada, and the only thing they appear to have in common is the Covid jab forced upon them by the tyrannical Trudeau regime.

Over 30 deaths of young, healthy Canadian doctors cannot be explained any other way than they were killed by the vaccine.  [Scroll down] But the 2019 numbers are misleading because it reflects only part of 2019.  The full number was probably around 170 for the year.  So the number of doctor deaths in 2021 seems to be about double normal, but more troubling is the age of death.  I'm working on a full analysis and will publish the spreadsheet so you can see this for yourself.  They've removed earlier deaths because, according to the CMA, it was "too hard to maintain" that data.  That makes no sense.  So they just show recent deaths.  But nothing since the latest booster rolled out in Canada to the doctors.  Why?  It's because they've "been really busy with other projects."  So they claim they aren't concealing anything.  That's nice to know that it's just a resource problem.  What the data says is troubling and it's in plain sight and it is easy for anyone to verify.  I'm sure the CMA will eventually be able to look at it when they have more resources.  It's pretty important since it's killing the doctors that the CMA is supposed to protect.  I'm not sure what is more important than that.

China's Endless COVID Hysteria Is A Dark Experiment In Social Conditioning.  There are many people that will say that Americans "rolled over" in the face of covid restrictions and vaccine pressures despite extensive evidence that neither of these things had any effect on stopping or stalling the pandemic.  But the notion of American pacifism is simply not true.  If it were then the US would be looking a lot more like China right now.  Growing opposition to meaningless covid lockdowns and the vaccine passports was a mainstay in the US that made government enforcement impossible.  Joe Biden's attempt to introduce federal vax passport rules for businesses failed miserably, red states defied the lockdowns within a few months of the start of the pandemic and the states that kept restrictions in place had HIGHER rates of infection while their economies sank.  When it became clear to the establishment that millions of Americans were not going to comply, they had to back off.  Even blue states and cities have been forced to acknowledge that the farce is over; [...]

Jared Kushner and the Mystery of the First US Lockdown.  The possibility of U.S. lockdowns — never attempted on this scale in the history of pandemics — was already in the air in early March 2020.  The theory of lockdown had been floating around for 15 years but now China was first to try it, and claim enormous success, however fraudulently.  Incredibly, the United States was set to try it out too but getting Trump on board was going to take some doing.  The federal government had the quarantine power since 1944.  That much we knew.  But just how expansive could its exercise be?  Would they dare quarantine the well with the sick?  How far would this go?  Thanks to several journalistic accounts, we have a better idea of what went on in the White House before the dreadful March 16, 2020, press conference of Donald Trump, Anthony Fauci, and Deborah Birx in which the lockdowns were announced.  Along with that came a flier with tiny print about which the ever-trusting Trump apparently knew nothing:  "bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms, and other indoor and outdoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed."  Read those words again.  Has anything like this ever been issued by any government in the history of the world, before China did it?  I cannot think of a case.  It shuts not only the places where people do "congregate" but also everywhere where they might congregate.  Churches.  AA meetings.  Civic clubs.  Libraries.  Museums.  Homes! And this happened under Trump's watch right here in the United States!  There ought to be a word to describe something more extreme than totalitarian.

Who cares?
Fed gov't to suspend free at-home COVID-19 tests program Sept. 2.  The Biden administration is suspending an online program that provides at-home COVID-19 tests for free, citing a lack of funding from Congress.  "Ordering through this program will be suspended on Friday, September 2 because Congress hasn't provided additional funding to replenish the nation's stockpile of tests," it says on the program's website, [...]

Single Point of Failure.  Ashley Rindsberg convincingly traces Anthony Fauci's response to the Covid 19 pandemic to the biodefense institutions created by George W. Bush and Dick Cheney following the 9/11 attacks. [...] To this day doubts linger as to the identity of the perpetrator, but as Rindsberg notes there was no doubt in the minds of either Bush or Cheney that America's biodefenses had to be bolstered and that Fauci was the man to lead the effort.  "By 2003, the Bush administration was requesting $2 billion in annual budget for biodefence — a sum that, as the Los Angeles Times noted, exceeded the combined research budgets for breast cancer, lung cancer, stroke and tuberculosis.  That year, Bush announced in his State of the Union address that he would propose a further $6 billion for the development and stockpiling of vaccines over the subsequent decade, in addition to baseline biodefence funding. [...]"

Caged animals are safe, but it is not much of a life.  I returned late last night from speaking at the Gateway for Freedom conference, which was held at the Gateway Conference Center in Collinsville, IL (suburb of St. Louis).  Why was it held in Collinsville, Illinois you ask?  Because not a single conference venue actually located in the city of St. Louis would allow it to be held in the city, as the speakers and topics to be discussed were not acceptable.  So the conference organizers had to go across the river to a venue in Illinois.  That is where this all has come to.  The words of Drs.  Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, Richard Urso and Ryan Cole are apparently so dangerous that they should not be heard by a general audience.  Many attendees asked me a question that I also find deeply troubling.  Why have we, all of us, all over the world, been subjected to these profoundly destructive and counterproductive "public health" polices since January 2020?  All the same policies, same justifications, same words, same censorship, same actions, all over the western world.  Is it due to incompetence on the part of "public health officials" (but globally harmonized?), due to some evil pre-conceived global plan, or due to various powerful groups who seek to exploit a viral infection to advance their economic, geopolitical, or other power-related objectives?  And how could this happen, in such a globally coordinated fashion?

How Dick Cheney created Anthony Fauci.  Far from being a public health expert, Fauci sits at the very top of America's biodefence infrastructure.  And contrary to the notion that he is a Deep State string-puller of the Democratic party, it was George W. Bush and Dick Cheney who not only put Fauci there but created the very framework that the immunologist-physician commands.  This in part accounts for the otherwise inexplicable fact that Fauci, loathed by President Trump, was never fired by the notoriously vengeful politician who galvanised his brand with the phrase "You're fired!".  But Fauci's untouchability raises an even more perplexing question:  Why did the media beatify him as the country's beneficent, infallible Covid saviour rather than look into the reality of his position and the source of his nearly limitless authority?

Conventional Wisdom is an Oxymoron.  There are so many things in which we naysayers have been right and the conventional wisdom proven wrong that it's impossible for me to keep tabs.  Don Surber does a great job.  Here are a handful from his latest blog: Shutting down the country was a major mistake which people like New York Governor Kathy Hochul are being forced to admit.  President Trump did not push too fast for the COVID vaccine.  Big Pharma and the opposition deliberately slowed it down to boost Biden's election chances by depriving Trump of a triumph even at the cost of many lives of the vulnerable.  ["]Then instead of limiting the experimental vaccine to those who needed it, Biden made the whole thing mandatory, which was unconstitutional and created division.  It also undermined public trust in the CDC and public health officials.  That trust endangers the public health when the next crisis pops up.["]  It is likely the COVID virus was not a natural development from Wuhan wet markets.

Former CDC Medical Officer Calls Out Inaccurate COVID Death Count.  Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, a Clinical Professor of Population and Public Health Sciences at Keck School of Medicine (USC) and former Centres For Disease Control (CDC) medical officer has, like many other experts in the field, voiced his concerns of what appears to be an inaccurate COVID death count.  [Tweet]  This observation has been pointed out from the beginning of the pandemic.  It began when multiple health authorities admitted that a COVID death includes those who died with a positive test, regardless of whether the cause of death was something completely unrelated.  In late June of 2020 Toronto (Ontario, Canada) Public Health tweeted that "Individuals who have died with COVID-19, but not as a result of COVID-19 are included in the case counts for COVID-19 deaths in Toronto."  Sir David John Spiegelhalter OBE FRS, a well known British statistician explained after one year into the pandemic how multiple countries changed their definition of a COVID death several times.

Pandemic Justice Long Overdue Because Of Crimes Against Humanity.  We have been living through the crime of the century; actually several centuries.  It is the COVID pandemic.  Totally mismanaged because of evil behavior, greed and incompetence.  Despite what seems like an infinite amount of medical data proving how corrupt and dangerous are the many actions of government agencies and the whole medical and public health establishment, something is missing.  I call it pandemic justice.  What all of us who see reality want is to not let all the evil and corrupt people get away with killing and harming millions of people worldwide.  This is how I see pandemic justice.  But first I want to emphasize that although I and other truth-tellers have continued to provide key medical data on, in particular, the many ways that COVID vaccines/boosters provide far more health risks than benefits we are up against a collusion of leftist media and government agencies that control the information flow to most of the public.  They are masters of propaganda.

An Ill Wind.  After decades of mere racketeering, arranging things so as to bankrupt anyone who gets seriously ill, corporatized health care now presides over a harvest of medically-induced death, pretending dumbly that there is nothing to see.  Get this: the people are seeing it now, and talking about it, and there will be no stopping their discovery of exactly what has gone on, or their wrath in the afterwash.  The chief architect of this epic debacle, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Captain Queeg of American Public Health, has announced his exit from the scene "to pursue the next chapter of my career."  He was coy about what that might be.  I think the job title is:  defendant.

Silenced healthcare workers speak out publicly for the first time.  Here is a quick summary of some of the things they said:
  [#1]   They are afraid to come out publicly due to intimidation tactics such as loss of job and/or license to practice medicine.
  [#2]   Unvaccinated healthcare workers are extremely upset with the medical community.  They feel they have been treated unfairly.
  [#3]   It is the vaccinated workers who are getting sick with COVID, but it is the unvaccinated who are punished with constant testing, restrictions, and threats of losing their jobs.
  [#4]   The COVID shots are a disaster.  Even for the elderly which is supposed to be the most compelling use case, death rates in elderly homes went up by a factor of 5 after the shots rolled out.  Each time the shots are given, the deaths spike.  Nobody is talking publicly about this.  It's not allowed.
  [#5]   Doctors are seeing rates of injury and death increase dramatically in all ages of people.  The injuries are only happening to the vaccinated.  There is no doubt that this is happening but many doctors have so much cognitive dissonance that they don't see it.
  [#6]   One nurse with 23 years of experience says she's never heard of anyone under 20 dying from cardiac issues until the vaccines rolled out.  Now she knows of around 30 deaths.
  [#7]   "I have been a nurse for 36 years.  I have NEVER witnessed people in their 20s and 30s having strokes, atrial fibrillation, or cardiomyopathies until the Covid vaccines.  I work in cardiology.  When I mention that someone should look at the vaccines as a possible reason, I am immediately silenced and told, 'It is NOT from the vaccine.'"
  [#8]   Doctors aren't recording vaccination status in the medical records so that all the deaths are attributed to the unvaccinated.
  [#9]   Doctors are deliberately ignoring the possibility that the vaccines could be the cause of all the elevated events.  The events are simply all unexplained.
  [#10]   Many doctors have either quit or will quit.

Djokovic to Miss US Open, Skipping Second Grand Slam in 2022.  Unvaccinated tennis star Novak Djokovic said he won't compete in the upcoming US Open, a decision that means the former world no. 1 will miss his second Grand Slam tournament this year and risk tumbling further down the rankings.  "Sadly, I will not be able to travel to NY this time for US Open," Djokovic said in a tweet, adding he'll wait for an opportunity to compete again.  Stacey Allaster, the US Open Tournament director, said the reason was "due to the federal government's vaccination policy for non-U.S. citizens."  According to the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, non-U.S. citizens must show proof of being fully vaccinated against Covid-19 before boarding flights to the US.

Fauci's Biggest Crime.  Even during the devastating Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918, when 500 million people worldwide were infected with an estimated 50 million deaths, the American reaction through the federal government was relatively muted and the economic impact created at the direction of our national leaders was minimal.  "The immediate economic fallout for the US economy from the coronavirus pandemic is predicted to be disastrous.  In comparison, while the Spanish flu also had some economic consequences, they were mostly modest and temporary," wrote professors of finance Efraim Benmelech and Carola Frydman in the early days of Fauci's engineered shut-down.  Under Anthony Fauci's direction and recommendation, the American economy went dormant for "15 days to slow the spread" and then, upon his obstinant insistence, that 15 days was extended and extended and extended, creating economic and social impacts still felt across our nation.  Indeed, as of August 23 (the origination date of this column), 14 states were still operating under Emergency Health protocols, according to the National Academy for State Health Policy.  Under Fauci's strong recommendation, states seized power and control of their citizens' rights, livelihoods and liberty in an effort to "slow the spread" a full two and a half years after Fauci's first shut-down advice.

Study: Pfizer COVID pill showed no benefit in younger adults.  Pfizer's COVID-19 pill appears to provide little or no benefit for younger adults, while still reducing the risk of hospitalization and death for high-risk seniors, according to a large study published Wednesday.  The results from a 109,000-patient Israeli study are likely to renew questions about the U.S. government's use of Paxlovid, which has become the go-to treatment for COVID-19 due to its at-home convenience.  The Biden administration has spent more than $10 billion purchasing the drug and making it available at thousands of pharmacies through its test-and-treat initiative.

Alabama embalmer discovers strange clots in people since release of COVID vaccine.  One Alabama embalmer will perform his job in silence no longer.  Richard Hirschmann has been the impetus for recent disturbing pathology reports of abnormal blood clots found and removed by embalmers from the corpses they embalmed.  Hirschmann claims this pattern has only emerged in his line of work since the onset of COVID-19 and the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccines.  Hirschmann lives in the southeastern part of Alabama and has practiced there as a private contractor for the past 20-plus years.  The embalmer said he started to notice this unusual substance in his work in the summer of 2021.  "It wasn't until May or June of last year that I started to say, 'something is really different about the blood' and then later in September, I took my first picture, since I couldn't come out with just one piece of evidence because what if it's just a fluke?" Hirschmann said.  "Now, I have been gathering evidence and I have pictures of over 100 cases.  And it's not stopping.  It's not slowing down."

Nate Silver: Liberal Elites May Have Pressured Pfizer to Delay Vaccine — Until After 2020 Election.  FiveThirtyEight editor-in-chief Nate Silver made a claim on Twitter that's getting a lot of attention, quite understandably.  Silver was commenting on Twitter on a Politico article about the Trump Administration pushing for fast-track approval of the COVID vaccine in 2020.  It makes perfect sense that you would want to fast-track it, to help people as soon as it was possible.  Silver said, "'Trump pushed for vaccine approvals too fast' is the worst possible critique of the Trump administration's COVID policy.  That probably saved a lot of lives.  If anything approval should have been faster."  His next comment, though, was the barn burner.  He said that "liberal public health elites" pressured Pfizer to "change its original protocols" and delay that vaccine approval, which "had the convenient side-effect of delaying any vaccine announcement until after the election" That action "deserves more scrutiny," Silver declared.

DC School District's CV-19 Vaccine Mandate Targets Black Students.  The District of Columbia Public School District is an outlier among US schools by mandating COVID-19 vaccines for school attendance.  The policy is a vaccine requirement for students age 12 and up in order to attend school.  DCPS has refused to accommodate non-vaccinated students by disallowing them access to remote learning.  The students must have proof of vaccination on file within the first 20 days of the school year to continue attendance.  The policy of excluding students even from remote, in-home education has been seen in California where students missing any number of the state-mandated drug products are refused enrollment.  California barred students who didn't have every mandated vaccine from schools, both public and private, beginning in 2015 by first removing the religious exemption, known as the personal belief exemption.  During the 2015 session, proponents of the bill specifically testified that a doctor's professional judgment would remain. Oops, they lied.

It wouldn't have been an education anyway — you're better off with home schooling.
Democrat DC Mayor Bowser Announces Unvaccinated Students will Be Denied an Education — No Option For Virtual Learning.  Democrat DC Mayor Muriel Bowser is denying unvaccinated students an education.  Unvaccinated students will not be allowed in school and there will not be an option for virtual learning.  Over 40% of blacks ages 12 to 17 are not vaccinated for Covid, the Daily Signal reported.  A reporter for The Daily Signal asked Bowser if unvaccinated students would have to learn remotely, she replied, "We're not offering remote learning for children, and families will need to comply with what is necessary to come to school."  Students will have 20 days to prove they are up-to-date on their Covid vaccination or they will be removed from school.

Out of Outrage.  [Scroll down] It was before the pandemic, when all communists rose to their totalitarian best, exerted the police state as a means of absolute control to the destruction of American citizens simply trying to save everything they'd worked for over decades.  It was before ordinary store clerks thought it their role to administer health advice and request private, personal health records.  It wasn't just that that brought about the new understanding, it was the relish with which these store clerks engaged in this draconian level of enforcement and the degree to which so many of my fellow citizens complied that revealed the evil inherent in so many and the willingness to tolerate that evil in the rest.

Businesses bite back: Newsom's COVID mandates suffer triple court defeats.  California courts dealt a blow this month against Gov. Gavin Newsom's COVID-19 mandates, which forced businesses to close and cleaned out churches for more than a year.  It's been two years since Newsom locked down America's leading economic powerhouse with a strict disaster declaration that slowed commerce and prompted a pandemic exodus.  A trio of rulings show that businesses are starting to see justice in the courts for alleged misery they say was unjustly imposed.  "It will be a chilling effect for the tyrants of the future," civil rights attorney Mark Meuser told the Washington Examiner.  "These [court rulings] are needed to rein in the abuse of emergency powers by tyrant Newsom."

Fauci: I Didn't Shut Down The Schools.  Technically, no, he didn't shut down the schools.  But only because he didn't have the power to do that.  What he did is campaign for them to be closed, which governors, particularly in Fauci-worshipping, Trump-hating blue states, promptly did, to prove that They [...] Love Science.  He also claimed that lockdowns didn't harm children.  When Cavuto points out Science establishing that they did, he immediately Questions The Science, which he previously informed me was a grave moral sin.

Biden [Claims] That the "Emergency" Powers He Has Due to Covid Allow Him to Act As a Tyrant, Apparently Forever.  Note that Biden already declared an end to the covid emergency when he canceled Trump's Remain in Mexico policy, and his CDC just announced that we're effectively back to normal.  But Biden won't formally say the "emergency" is over — so he can continue acting as tyrant when he finds it politically useful to do so. [...] [D]idn't this Republic used to require Congress to pass laws?  Didn't NeverTrump used to caution about the "authoritarian" Trump assuming the powers of a tyrant?  And yet... they're all supportive of this, or silent about it.

This item appears to be off-topic, but I suspect it isn't.
Mountain bike rider Rab Wardell dies aged 37, days after winning Scottish title.  The mountain bike rider Rab Wardell has died at the age of 37, just days after competing at, and winning, the Scottish MTB XC Championships.  Scottish Cycling confirmed on Tuesday evening that Wardell had died in his sleep.  Wardell had appeared on BBC Scotland's The Nine programme on Monday evening to talk about his victory on Sunday.  "We are devastated to confirm the news that international mountain biker and former employee, Rab Wardell, has passed away today," a statement from Scottish Cycling said.

Doctors blast rush to approve Omicron COVID vaccine without human data.  FDA approval of so-called bivalent COVID-19 vaccines seems all but inevitable, worrying some physicians who want to see safety and efficacy data before millions of Americans — particularly those at higher risk of vaccine-related heart inflammation — take mRNA boosters this fall and winter.  The regulator telegraphed its intentions in June by directing vaccine makers to include the ancestral strain and currently dominant Omicron subvariants BA.4 and BA.5 in planned shots.  White House COVID Response Coordinator Ashish Jha confirmed the plan at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce last week, giving a target date of mid-September for availability.  Pfizer and BioNTech submitted their bivalent vaccine to the FDA for emergency use authorization (EUA) despite not testing it in humans, according to their joint press release Monday.  They are scheduled to start the human trial in ages 12 and up later this month.

Rand Paul tells NIH to retain Fauci records.  Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) is demanding that the National Institutes of Health retain documents connected to outgoing National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci as the lawmaker prepares to ratchet up his long-standing feud with the health official.  As a parting gift to Fauci, Paul vowed to carry on with his investigations into the doctor's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and allegations that he "funneled tax dollars to fund dangerous research in communist China."  The senator explained that the preservation of Fauci documents is critical for his investigation of the doctor.

Twitter Restores Account of UK Doctor Skeptical of COVID-19 Vaccines After Permanently Suspending It.  Twitter on Tuesday restored the account of a British doctor known for questioning the efficacy and safety of COVID-19 vaccines after telling her the account had been "permanently suspended due to multiple or repeat" rule violations.  Dr. Clare Craig, a diagnostic pathologist who has more than 145,000 followers on Twitter, had her account suspended on Sunday without getting an explanation.  After she appealed the suspension, Twitter told her on Tuesday that the account had been permanently suspended, hours before restoring it, blaming the incident on a system that "find[s] and remove[s] multiple automated spam accounts in bulk."  Speaking to The Epoch Times on Tuesday afternoon, Craig said she realised on Monday that her account had been suspended, but believes it happened on Sunday.

Unusual Toxic Components Found in COVID Vaccines, 'Without Exception': German Scientists.  A group of independent German scientists found toxic components — mostly metallic — in all the COVID vaccine samples they analyzed, "without exception" using modern medical and physical measuring techniques.  The Working Group for COVID Vaccine Analysis says that some of the toxic elements found inside the AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Moderna vaccine vials were not listed in the ingredient lists from the manufacturers.  The following metallic elements were found in the vaccines:
  •   Alkali metals: caesium (Cs), potassium (K)
  •   Alkaline earth metals: calcium (Ca), barium (Ba)
  •   transition metals: cobalt (Co), iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), titanium (Ti)
  •   Rare earth metals: cerium (Ce), gadolinium (Gd)
  •   Mining group/metal: aluminum (Al)
  •   Carbon group: silicon (Si) (partly support material/slide)
  •   Oxygen group: sulphur (S)
These substances, furthermore, "are visible under the dark-field microscope as distinctive and complex structures of different sizes, can only partially be explained as a result of crystallization or decomposition processes, [and] cannot be explained as contamination from the manufacturing process," the researchers found.

Democrats Evade Accountability to Avoid Political Fallout.  Drs.  Fauci, Birx, and Walensky knew the following by mid-2021.  Yet, they imposed pseudo-martial law and shut down the country with disastrous consequences.  CoViD is medically dangerous only to those who are elderly, obese, have diabetes, and other life-threatening comorbidities.  Otherwise, CoViD is as risky as the flu.  Children are in less danger from CoViD than an auto crash.  Most important, there are no long-term data on mRNA vaccination.  Despite having all the scientific evidence above, Washington (note the dispersed accountability of writing "Washington") claimed CoViD was an existential threat to the nation.  They imposed a nation-wide quarantine with masking, social distancing, and lockdowns.  There was no epidemiologic basis for quarantine of the healthy population during a pandemic.  No one had ever done this before.  Democrats' anti-science, supposedly anti-CoViD policies caused more than 200,000 small businesses to close, millions lost their jobs, and thousands died needlessly.

Not Just The FBI: Institutions Across The Board Have Forfeited America's Trust.  Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, we witnessed repeated lies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other public health institutions, ranging in topic from vaccines to masking to lockdowns.  Even worse, Dr.  Anthony Fauci's emails show his ruthless efforts to target any scientists or medical professionals who disagreed with him in an attempt to destroy their credibility.  The evidence of rampant abuse within the bureaucracy is widespread and illustrates that we should not blindly and obediently trust these institutions.

Covid-19 fraud is one big reason why the public doesn't trust their government.  Recently, a government report revealed that COVID-19 relief efforts led to possibly the largest fraud in the history of America.  The Washington Post reported that unemployment benefits of an estimated $163 billion were paid to undeserving individuals due to either error or fraud.  In the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program, around $58 billion was paid to companies that shared the same addresses, phone numbers, bank accounts, or other data as other applicants — a clear indication of fraud.  Why did this happen?  The first reason is antiquated computer systems[.]  The federal and state governments have separate databases to store the same information and isolated systems to perform the same function.  At times departments within both state and federal governments have separate databases for the same data.  The systems do not always share information with each other.  The outcome is data redundancy, data inconsistency and no proper tracking.

Anthony Fauci Admits to WaPo His $10.4M Financial Portfolio Was Hidden.  Dr.  Anthony Fauci admitted in a Friday Washington Post report that his $10.4 million financial portfolio was hidden from being easily obtained by American citizens.  After watchdogs failed for months to obtain his financial disclosures, Fauci's 2020 portfolio was obtained and published by Sen.  Roger Marshall (R-KS) on January 14.  Fauci's disclosures were obtained by Marshall after Fauci called the senator a "moron" on a hot mic at a Senate hearing.

Lifetime government bureaucrat resigns, following 54 year career of corruption, deceit, death and destruction.  [Doctor] Fauci announced his resignation today, effective at the end of the year.  The Dossier readers are well aware of Dr.  Fauci's crimes against humanity, so I'll spare you the endlessly long list of Fauci's lies, deceit, and criminal culpability, marking the man as arguably the most destructive human being of our time.  Will Congress hold him accountable?  Probably not.  But for a few exceptions, they're too complicit in the economic and societal destruction of the last few years to do anything serious.  The vast majority have a track record of lockdown authoritarianism and mRNA fanaticism.  Fauci will probably get away with all of it.  However, his legacy can serve as an important lesson to the general public: never, ever give so much power to one megalomaniacal mad man, especially one who works in the federal government.  Like most problems with government, liberty is the solution.  Now, after reading his resignation letter, something caught me by surprise.  Fauci, an octogenarian, doesn't intend on retiring from the workforce, but on potentially shifting to a role in the private sector.

It's About Time Liberals Apologize for Their COVID Policies.  Walking through the Buffalo airport, form in hand, passengers heard a repeated message from Gov.  Andrew Cuomo hectoring us about masks and social distancing.  Before leaving the secure area of the airport, we all passed through a checkpoint manned by the men and women of the National Guard who were there to collect our forms.  Feeling more rebellious than usual — I had been rebelling since Day One of the lockdown — I chose to run the gauntlet without handing in my card. [...] In any case, no one said anything.  Score one for the resistance.  Friends who drove from Missouri to visit us that summer chose to fill out their forms online in advance even though the state borders were not manned.  The whole process was an exercise in mendacity.  Visitors to New York state had to promise to quarantine for 14 days in a facility in which they would have their own bathroom.  At our place, as our guests knew, we have only one bathroom.  As part of the state's service to visitors, some health apparatchik called our guests daily, asking intrusive questions about their wellbeing and confirming they were honoring the quarantine.  They weren't.  No one did.  Everyone lied.

Judge Blocks Marine Corps From Discharging Unvaccinated Marines.  U.S. District Court Judge Steven Merryday has halted the discharge of hundreds of Marines who were denied religious exemptions from the military's requirement that they receive the experimental Covid-19 "vaccine" shots, which have not prevented infection and the spread of the virus as the government pledged.  In a lawsuit filed against the Secretary of Defense over the department's Covid-19 vaccine mandate, the 48-page ruling issued on Thursday grants class action status for all active and reserve U.S. Marine Corps servicemen and women.  Merryday, a George. H.W. Bush appointee, ruled Thursday that the Corps has failed to adhere to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.  The Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA) requires the federal government to prove that a compelling governmental interest requires a certain action and that no less-restrictive alternatives exist.

Fauci leaving government won't stop Republicans from holding him 'accountable,' lawmakers say.  Republican lawmakers say that President Biden's chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci leaving his government post won't stop them from holding him "accountable."  Fauci's December departure from the Biden administration was announced on Monday [8/22/2022], with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director saying he was "not retiring," but looking to "pursue the next chapter" of his career.  Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who sparred many times with Fauci in the Senate, said, "Fauci's resignation will not prevent a full-throated investigation into the origins of the pandemic."

Fauci's Resignation Is No Where Near An Ethical Truth & Reconciliation.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, 81, on Monday announced his plans to step down in December as the head of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the Biden White House's Chief Medical Advisor. "About time... someone made the decision," said Dr. Meryl Nass of Children's Health Defense in a phone call.  This announcement leaves open the question whether Dr. Fauci will relinquish his duties that fall under the Department of Defense, and if so, who replaces him, and how that person has to deal with the misery Fauci leaves behind.  It raises a host of questions into the ongoing investigation into his and his wife, Christine Grady, and their financial royalties as a result of the covid vaccination development programs both during their tenures.  Ms. Grady is with the National Institute of Health bioethics department overseeing clinical trials.

Covid vaccination linked to new and recurrent cancer — the jabs cause severe damage to the immune system.  People who got "vaccinated" for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) while in remission for cancer are finding that their cancer has returned.  Bonnie Eisenberg, a 73-year-old who has been eight years in remission for breast cancer, is one such person who thought she was done with her disease in 2014.  Up until the time she got jabbed, Eisenberg's cancer appeared to be gone — but no longer.  Her tumor markers have increased, including levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which is common to cancers of not only the breast but also the colon, rectum, prostate, ovary, lung, thyroid, and liver.  Every month since 2014, Eisenberg has dutifully taken a monthly CEA test along with others to monitor her cancer status.  Before she got injected, her test results were always in the normal range during this time, ranging anywhere from 0 to 4.0 ng/mL.

The Last Covidians.  Last week, Dr. Ashish Jha, White House Coronavirus Response Director, claimed that the hundreds of daily U.S.  deaths from (or with) Covid-19 "would go to close to zero" if every person "was up to date on their vaccines and people got treated with Paxlovid as they're supposed to."  My tweet of his video clip garnered a well-deserved and much-expected ratio, with far more quote tweets and responses than likes or retweeets.  However, while the vast majority of respondents who were critical of Jha came from Team Reality (given the political leanings of my followers, that was no surprise), several more came from Branch Covidians angry at Jha — one of their own — for supposedly not emphasizing avoiding Covid altogether and taking Covid measures like masking.  Similarly, Dr. Leana Wen of CNN fame, a subject of frequent and deserved ire from the right for previous tyrannical positions on vaccine mandates, has recently come under Covidian fire for calls to end mandates and get things back to normal.

Study finds that over half of people with Omicron Variant of Covid don't even know they had it.  It's getting harder to keep the populace in a state of panic (and therefore attempt to justify mass mail in voting and other election security diminishments) now that Covid is following the path of most other viral epidemics.  The virus evolves into a less lethal form (that doesn't kill off the hosts, in other words) that spreads even more easily.

UN Recruited Over 100,000 'Digital First Responders' to Push Establishment COVID Narrative.  At the height of the pandemic, the United Nations recruited over 100,000 "digital first responders' to push the establishment narrative on COVID via social media.  The revelation actually slipped out in October 2020 during a World Economic Forum podcast called 'Seeking a cure for the infodemic', although it is only going viral on Twitter today.  In the podcast, Melissa Fleming, head of global communications for the United Nations, explains how the COVID pandemic and lockdowns created a "communications crisis" in addition to a public health emergency.  Fleming acknowledged that in order to fight so-called "misinformation" about the pandemic, the UN tapped up 110,000 people to amplify their messaging across social media.

CDC Admits Its Covid Performance Was Lacking.  It is notable that the experience of the last two years has caused a sharp, and well-justified, decline in public perceptions of CDC as well as other public health institutions.  When covid began, CDC was sacrosanct and Dr. Fauci was considered nearly infallible by a broad swath of the population. [...] Perhaps most important of all, let's not forget that for most of the last two years, social media outlets have routinely suppressed any information that dissented from or questioned whatever dogmas were, at that moment, being disseminated by CDC.  Anyone who disagreed with that agency's line of the moment was relentless smeared.  And yet, we now see the agency itself admitting that it made many mistakes.  This experience obviously shows the importance of free speech and robust debate, but there are major elements in our society, including the leading social media platforms, that continue to be hostile to dissent from the liberal party line on public health and many other topics.

Polio Cases Continue to Rise as a Result of Vaccine-Created Strains.  Cases of the polio virus are re-emerging across the world, including in the U.S., and appear to be attributed to strains of the virus resulting from vaccination.  In July, A 20-year-old man residing in New York was diagnosed with polio, resulting in paralysis in his legs.  While mainstream media outlets covered the story, journalists and commentators exploited the incident, blaming it on an individual's decision to not receive a polio vaccine.

The downsides of COVID vaccines.  Dr. Pierre Kory, president and co-founder of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC), has gathered together a huge amount of data on the problems with the novel mRNA "vaccines" that have been mandated for many people.  He has published on the results of his extensive research Substack in a Katter he wrote: "Vaccine Exemption Letter For a 16 Year-Old Camp Counselor." [...] It is a very long article with many charts and graphs.  I highly recommend it as a resource for anyone facing a a vaccine mandate, or anyone who simply wants a comprehensive review of the many problems with the so-called vaccines.

Mass vaccinations responsible for 1 in 30 children now having autism.  The percentage of children in America who are getting diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is skyrocketing.  And many want to know:  Are vaccines responsible?  Today, one in 30 children, or 3.49 percent, of children aged 3 to 17 have some degree of autism.  This is according to the latest data from 2020, which was gathered in 2019.  Keep in mind that this data does not include Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines," which were introduced after it was collected.  The U.S.  National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) conducted a survey of 12,554 children, 410 of whom were discovered to have been diagnosed with autism.  "The overall prevalence of autism in 2019 was 2.79%, increasing to 3.49% in 2020, which represents a 53% increase since 2017," writes Dr. Joseph Mercola. [...] Mercola calls it a "mystery" because that is the official story being dispensed by the government.  We have been told over and over again that vaccines do not cause autism, but all available evidence points to the contrary.  As increasingly more injections have been added to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) official vaccine schedule, rates of autism among children have only continued to increase right alongside that expanding schedule.

The Editor says...
Maybe it's because the internet hadn't been popularized yet, but I never heard of anyone with autism or a peanut allergy until the mid-1990's.  Until the internet came to town, transvestites were on the order of one in a million, and limp-wristed snowflakes and perpetual victims were all but unknown.

Covid vaccine trials led to birth defects and terminated pregnancies, FOIA requests show.  Another round of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests has been filled, this time for Moderna's Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccine," revealing that the mRNA (messenger RNA) shot causes birth defects and spontaneous abortions in pregnant women.  Towards the end of the 699-page document release in the toxicology section, it is stated that mRNA-1273, as the company calls the drug, lead to "significant increases in the number of F1 rats with 1 or more wavy ribs and 1 or more rib nodules."  "Wavy ribs appeared in 6 fetuses and 4 litters with a fetal prevalence of 4.03% and a litter prevalence of 18.2%," the section continues.  "Rib nodules appeared in 5 of those 6 fetuses."

CDC Recommends Wearing Masks to Avoid Monkeypox, Ignoring an Important Factor.  Just in case you needed yet another reason not to take the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seriously, this story should suffice.  The agency released a study on Friday recommending that people wear face masks, among other measures, to avoid catching monkeypox.  The problem?  The precautions the CDC suggested do not line up with what the data shows about the spread of the illness. [...] These findings suggest that masking only protects the wrong part of the body.  Perhaps people should be focusing their attention a bit lower?  Nevertheless, the CDC still thought it would take a shot at promoting masking again, even though it's about as effective as filling up a pool with an eyedropper.  At this point, it might be appropriate to wonder if we can ever trust the CDC again.

Ballpark Estimate: Covid Injections Have Killed 5 to 12 million People Worldwide.  [Scroll down] We are killing an awful lot of people, but world leaders are looking the other way and saying nothing while all of us watch the high number of death reports in the media of people who died "unexpectedly" and hear no explanation from the medical community or the CDC.  We are supposed to trust that they have things well in hand, even though they won't appear on camera in front of anyone who doesn't have scripted, pre-approved questions.  The vaccine is never mentioned in any of these unexplained death reports.  Yet people all over the world have noticed that these unexpected deaths are ONLY happening to the vaccinated.

AT&T phone reps are required to be vaccinated even though they work from home.  If you are an AT&T phone rep who has been working from home since the start of the pandemic, AT&T requires you to be fully vaccinated to continue your employment (religious or medical exemptions are available).  Also, the union sided with the company in requiring vaccination for employees who work 100% at home.  The only possible explanation for such a requirement is that AT&T believes that the virus can be transmitted over the phone lines.  I would love to see that data on that one.

Covid is such a benign disease that many who have it don't even know.
Medical study finds patients unaware of omicron infections.  A new study finds that more than half of Los Angeles County residents recently infected with the omicron variant of COVID-19 were unaware of it, suggesting the virus is spreading faster as it weakens.  The study of 210 adults infected between Dec. 15 and May 4 was published Wednesday in JAMA Network Open.  It found that 56% of those infected did not know they had COVID, with health care workers being more likely to know.  Lead researcher Dr. Susan Cheng, a cardiologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, said those who didn't know they had COVID had no symptoms or mild symptoms that they "attributed to another cause like the common cold."

The state with the highest percentage of COVID vaccine refuseniks is....  [Scroll down]  The vaccine data comes from this fascinating survey by Morning Consult, which has been tracking public opinion on the jab since March of last year.  The most arresting single data point in the many graphs at the link has to be the fact that the percentage of refuseniks nationally has been rock steady since spring of 2021.  It was 21 percent on March 15 of last year and it was 21 percent as of a few days ago.  No amount of persuasion, no volume of data was ever going to flip that hardcore one-fifth of the population, it seems.

The CDC's Big Fail On COVID-19: Where's The Real Accountability?  Americans, good natured as they are, often assume that government agencies deserve an implicit trust from the public that they're sworn to serve, and that they will not violate that trust.  When they do, there have to be consequences.  That's certainly the case after our two-and-a-half year COVID-19 nightmare.  It can no longer be denied that our government's bureaucratic response to the dreaded Wuhan flu was inadequate at best, near-criminal at worst.  And now the reckoning has begun.  That can be seen in the Centers for Disease Control's new "guidance" on COVID, which is essentially an institutional mea culpa for mistakes that cost thousands of people their lives and sowed panic while doing little to halt the spread of the nasty virus.

Report: 44 Percent of Pregnant Women in Pfizer Trial Lost Their Babies; FDA and CDC Recommended Jabs For Expectant Mothers Anyway.  More than 40 percent of pregnant women who participated in Pfizer's mRNA COVID vaccine trial suffered miscarriages, according internal Pfizer documents, recently released under court order.  Despite this, Pfizer, and the Biden administration insisted that the vaccines were safe for pregnant women.  Out of 50 pregnant women, 22 of them lost their babies, according to an analysis of the documents.  In a January court ruling, U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman of the Northern District of Texas, ordered the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to release around 12,000 documents immediately, and then 55,000 pages a month until all documents were released, totaling more than 300,000 pages.  The nonprofit group, Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency, sued the FDA last September, after the agency denied its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to expedite the release of mRNA vaccine review documents.

While We're On The Subject Of Defunding Federal Agencies, Don't Forget The CDC.  Following years of bureaucratic malfeasance in the name of science, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated its Covid guidelines on Thursday to now recommend and acknowledge long overdue truths regarding transmission of the respiratory virus and Covid vaccines.  Among the new provisions included in the guidelines are recommendations to largely end mass asymptomatic testing of individuals with no known exposure to the virus, as well as calls for those "exposed to COVID-19" to wear a "mask for 10 days and get tested on day 5" rather than quarantine.  Most noteworthy in the CDC's new guidelines, however, is the tacit admission by the agency that any individual, regardless of vaccination status, can still get and spread Covid.  "Reiterating that regardless of vaccination status, you should isolate from others when you have COVID-19," the guidelines read.  "You should also isolate if you are sick and suspect that you have COVID-19 but do not yet have test results."

Scientists shred new research for mask mandates as 'junk science,' 'irredeemably flawed'.  The current unpopularity of mask mandates in American school districts has not stopped mask advocates from promoting their return as a COVID-19 mitigation measure, but the research used to justify mandates is facing expanded scrutiny.  A preprint of a study conducted in Boston-area school districts, not yet peer-reviewed, is "irredeemably flawed" in part because the researchers seemed unaware they were comparing apples and oranges, University of California San Francisco epidemiologist Vinay Prasad wrote in his newsletter Sunday.  "How junk science got spread like wildfire," pediatric infectious disease researcher Alasdair Munro wrote in his newsletter last week, analyzing a widely shared meta-analysis of mask research.

Quadruple-Vaxxed SEC of Defense Tests Positive For COVID 2nd Time While 60,000 National Guard and Reserve Soldiers Face Dismissal For Refusing to Be Vaccinated.  Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who is quadruple vaxxed, has tested positive for COVID-19 for the second time.  On Monday morning [8/15/2022] he announced the COVID diagnosis and said he will be quarantined at home for the next five days.  "I will retain all authorities and plan to maintain my normal work schedule virtually from home," Austin announced. [...] Meanwhile, as Austin's health status proves once again, the COVID vaccinations are entirely useless, especially for healthy, able-bodied young men who are serving in our nation's military.

Los Angeles Group Touts Snitch Line Where People Can Report Sick Kids, Indoor Eating At School.  A shocking report from RedState's Jennifer Van Laar recently exposed the shady connections between Los Angeles Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer and a study the CDC used as the basis for school reopening guidelines.  As it turns out, Ferrer's daughter was the author of the study, and her mother has used it to justify keeping COVID restrictions in place for students in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD).  It wasn't until Van Laar's investigation became public that Ferrer reversed her position on reinstating a mask mandate.  However, the effort to keep Angelenos and Californians trapped in fear continues with an advocate group called LAUSD Parents for COVID-Safe Schools.

Shanghai Covid:  Ikea shoppers flee attempt to lock down store.  There were chaotic scenes at an Ikea store in Shanghai on Saturday, with shoppers trying to escape as authorities tried to quarantine them.  Health officials were attempting to lock the store in Xuhui district down as a customer had been in close contact with a positive Covid case.  Videos show the guards closing the doors at one point, but a crowd forced them open and made their escape.  Shanghai endured a severe two-month lockdown earlier this year.  Since then, in line with the country's strict "zero-Covid" strategy, the city of 20 million people has ordered flash lockdowns of areas where positive cases or their close contacts have been detected.

Quadruple Vaxxed Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla Catches Covid One Year After Claiming His Vaccine Was 100% Effective.  Quadruple vaxxed Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla announced he tested positive for Covid on Monday [8/15/2022].  And of course he thanked his own vaccine.  Bourla also said he started a course of Paxlovid.  "I would like to let you know that I have tested positive for #COVID19.  I am thankful to have received four doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, and I am feeling well while experiencing very mild symptoms.  I am isolating and have started a course of Paxlovid." Bourla said.

While Uttar Pradesh was "quietly" eradicating COVID, India adopted ivermectin nationally to combat the disastrous Delta wave.  [Scroll down]  There is no requirement for the PFDA to "approve" any medicine for use in COVID that has already been granted PFDA approval previously for another condition.  Well, at least that was the rule until HCQ and IVM came along threatening Big Pharma's entire vaccine and therapeutics market for COVID. The bulletins above then influenced all the Medical Associations, Medical Boards, and Pharmacy Boards into scaring physicians and pharmacists across the land into stopping prescribing and/or filling two of the world's safest medications.  Fortunately, in the past months, many states of the USOP have fought back against Fauci's Federal Health Agencies, so much so that 42 of 50 states have either active, pending, or passed legislation protecting physicians and pharmacists to talk about and/or prescribe and fill repurposed medications to treat COVID.  The USOP did not stop there.  The CDC's criminal actions were followed a week later by the PFDA posting this bulletin cautioning against use "outside of the hospital setting."

Biden Regime Frustrated as Parents Refuse to Sacrifice Their Children to COVID Vaccine Industry.  Children under age five are by far the least jabbed demographic in America today, with more parents than not saying that they absolutely will not, under any circumstances, roll up their children's sleeves for a DNA modification injection — this includes many parents who got jabbed themselves.  The New York Times hilariously claimed that resistance to jabbing children has to do with "lack of access" to the shots, this being a major concern expressed among Black and Hispanic parents. [...] It is not just Republicans, by the way, who are rejecting the shots for their children.  Twenty-two percent of Democrats say they will not jab their under-five children, compared to just 15 percent who say they already have.  Among Democrat parents who are vaccinated themselves, 27 percent say they will not jab their under-five babies compared to 11 percent who already have.

A Spiritual Aspect To Covid That Many Miss.  [Scroll down]  Even if your most important concerns are the reports of election machine servers in Europe or the reports of the bamboo paper of China or whatever Dominion's sinister role may have been in the clearly stolen November 3, 2020 elections, well I want to point something out to you.  The emergency measures made all that possible.  Only by the most cowardly compliance with the Spring 2020 mandates, put into place from the federal executive and state executive on-down, were the 2020 elections able to be stolen.  The enduring lockdowns were the lynchpin of the stolen elections.  Covid-19 was the actual "big lie," and if you can't address that, you will fail to get beyond that.  That lie will keep coming back at you.

Americans Lost Fundamental Freedoms During Covid — But Halting Gay Orgies To Stop Monkeypox Is Too Far?  Like many people, far too many, I lost a loved one to Covid-19.  My grandmother came to visit her family a few weeks before she became ill, she was there to show off her new husband, her fifth, having outlived her others.  She was perky, sassy, and the happiest I had seen her.  She greeted my husband and me with a wide smile and an enthusiastic hug.  In her 80s, she had never let anything stop her, but she never anticipated the power of the government.  When she and her husband both tested positive, they were separated.  She spent the next week alone, isolated from her family.  Covid regulations kept her locked in a room, afraid and crying to see her family one last time.  She passed before she was allowed to have the chance.  Further Covid regulations prevented us from holding a funeral for her.  I had begun making her a quilt, but I wasn't able to finish in time.  All I could think about was all those photos of elderly couples separated by walls of plastic, only wanting to embrace each other.

The Elite Panic of 2022.  On April 18, U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle struck down the federal requirement for wearing surgical masks on airplanes, in airports, and while riding mass transit.  Online videos showed passengers and airline staff ripping off their masks and celebrating in mid-flight.  Given the accumulated frustration of two years of pandemic travel, the reaction was understandable.  Far more remarkable was the vehemence of those opposed to the ruling.  Judge Mizelle was unfit for office, they said.  She was too young, at 35; she was unelected; she was a single, unrepresentative voice.  Worst of all, she was an "activist Trump judge" and thus branded with the mark of the beast.  Rescinding government policy — the kind of thing that American judges engage in with abandon, and usually to progressive cheers — in this instance was condemned as a usurpation of the powers of the executive branch.  Judge Mizelle had crashed an exclusive party reserved for people of higher caste.

Faucimentalism.  "I represent science," Dr. Anthony Fauci proclaimed last year, charging that his critics were only attacking science.  That is a tough act to follow but Joe Biden's chief medical advisor was up to the task.  "All I have ever done — and go back and look at everything I've ever done," Dr. Fauci proclaimed last month, "was to recommend common-sense, good CDC-recommended public health policies that have saved millions of lives."  That invites a review of a few things Fauci has done in recent years.  Prophecy is not science but in 2017 Fauci predicted that a president would be surprised by a new infectious disease.  In 2019, Fauci funded gain-of-function research, which makes viruses more lethal and transmissible, at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in Communist China.  There the dangerous research, once banned in the United States, could be conducted in secret, with no accountability to Americans.

USC, UCLA Doctors:  Masks Not Effective in Stopping the Spread of COVID.  I remember asking early on in the pandemic, "if masks and lockdowns work so well, why aren't they, well... working?"  A group of USC and UCLA doctors had the same thought, evidently, and in a February letter to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors only recently obtained by the LA Daily News, they wrote:  ["]It is clear from these data that infections continued to increase despite the imposition of the mask mandate suggesting limited or no efficacy of the mask mandate.["]  They were referring to data that showed that after Los Angeles imposed a mask mandate in June of 2021, COVID cases kept rising into December.

Panic at the Top.  [Scroll down]  There is the CDC major backtrack this week, which seems most certainly a reflection not of a change in scientific analysis, but a recognition that the majority of the public has come to believe the CDC is a partisan outfit which locked us down, causing immense damage for no sound reason.  They came to see they had shot their credibility to pieces. [...] Of course, as you may recall, none of the rules applied if you were marching and rioting for BLM, but at last the CDC has adopted guidelines more in line with traditional disease management, a model Sweden followed, but doctors Fauci and Birx did not.  If you were fooled by this CDC foolishness, it may be because not only did the media megaphone them, but they and social media censored other views about the best way to deal with the virus.  Thus, for example, Alex Berenson, a former NYT reporter who consistently questioned the disease-control mandates, was blocked from Twitter, and brought suit in the course of which Twitter was forced to concede that White House officials played a role in censoring him.  He's now back on, conveniently just as the CDC has flipped and ended its idiotic recommendations.

New Zealand:  Mugged by Covid Reality.  [Scroll down]  This offers a plausible explanation for why people who so warmly embrace the moral framework of diversity, inclusion, and tolerance in social policy settings, ended up supporting vaccine apartheid for those hesitant to get jabbed by shots with worryingly thin efficacy and safety trials before approval for public use.  Jacinda Ardern's government further reinforced New Zealand's collective moral fervor by proclaiming its doctrine of the health ministry as the "single source of truth" on anything to do with coronavirus, including public health interventions.  With the passage of time, as evidence mounted of the folly of Zero Covid policy and the accumulating harms it was causing, the New Zealand government was trapped in a prison of its own construction and found it difficult to change course, even after the futility of the entire program became obvious in the data.

The CDC reverses itself, admitting the entire "covid theater" charade was a giant lie.  [Scroll down]  Also covered today is the astonishing reversal of covid guidance by the CDC, which has spent the last 2.5 years spreading quack science lies and propaganda to the world, resulting in the needless deaths of millions of people worldwide.  Suddenly now, the CDC says their previous guidelines don't apply any longer.  They've dropped their demands on masks, vaccinated vs. unvaccinated people, social distancing, mandatory quarantines, keeping exposed children out of school and even about running covid tests on asymptomatic people (i.e. testing those who aren't even sick).  This is a shocking, wholesale reversal of most of the lies the CDC been pushing for years, and it begs the question:  Will all the employees who were fired for questioning the CDC's previous "guidance" now get their jobs back?  Will they get back pay?  Will Big Tech reverse all the censorship and deplatforming of people who questioned the CDC's lies?

Fully Jabbed Teen Athlete Dies 'Suddenly and Unexpectedly' — Doctors Baffled.  Fully jabbed 18-year-old Aaron "Mick" Crawford died "suddenly and unexpectedly" last week, according to reports.  When recent floods in Eastern Kentucky destroyed villages and killed over 40 people, the Knott Central High School football player who had been helping with relief efforts for three days suddenly got sick and died.  Mick returned home extremely exhausted after assisting flood victims and complained that his arms felt heavy.

Government data show that 1 out of every 246 covid vaccinated people DIES within 60 days.  When the British government decided to change the ways in which it calculates and releases data about Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccine" injuries and deaths, the obvious coverup that resulted prompted the public filing of dozens of Freedom of Information (FOI) requests.  This led to the revelation that one out of every 246 people who gets jabbed for Chinese Germs, at least in England, ends up dying within the first two months post-injection.  At first, officials in the United Kingdom tried to claim that they do not hold such information.  Each FOI request was given the same pat answer:  a standard form letter insisting that details about when a person died post-injection are not available through death certificates, which is what the government uses for calculations.  The Office for National Statistics (ONS), meanwhile, this being the UK's largest independent producer of official statistics and a nationally recognized and reputed source of associated data, recently published the very data that government authorities claim does not exist — and that data is astounding.

Covid jabs linked to sharp death increase in the Netherlands.  An independent Dutch researcher has published a paper revealing that all-cause mortality has increased substantially in the Netherlands ever since Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines" were introduced.  The preprint study looks at about 350 municipalities across the Netherlands, evaluating excess death rates in comparison to jab uptake.  Every area where lots of people got injected has seen all-cause mortality skyrocket, the data shows.  Since the second half of 2021, study author and computer scientist André Redert discovered, the Netherlands has seen a sharp uptick in his country's "vaccination-correlated mortality-rate," which now averages around 5 percent.  "This means that 5 percent of the deaths were distributed in ways consistent with vaccination rates," explains Patrick Delaney, writing for LifeSiteNews.

New York Professor Claims Those Who Don't Want to Mask in Her Class are 'Racist'.  The mask fanatics refuse to give up.  Even though nearly every jurisdiction in the United States has ended mandates, there are legions of people desperate to maintain the disproven fiction of universal masking.  Mountains of data have accumulated over the past several years showing that masks have been completely ineffective at preventing the spread of COVID.  Yet some are so committed to avoiding admitting that the leaders of their political ideology have been wrong that they're willing to continue policies, seemingly forever.  One such recent example came from a SUNY New Paltz Professor Jessica Nydia Pabón-Colón who is described on LinkedIn as an "interdisciplinary Latina feminist performance studies scholar."

CDC drops quarantine, distancing recommendations for COVID.  The nation's top public health agency relaxed its COVID-19 guidelines Thursday, dropping the recommendation that Americans quarantine themselves if they come into close contact with an infected person.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also said people no longer need to stay at least 6 feet away from others.  The changes, which come more than 2 1/2 years after the start of the pandemic, are driven by a recognition that an estimated 95% of Americans 16 and older have acquired some level of immunity, either from being vaccinated or infected, agency officials said.

The Editor says...
Ri-i-i-ight.  Perhaps also because they just made up the six-foot figure without any scientific basis, and because nobody cares about Covid any more.  But it's not because the "vaccines" work so well, because they don't.

China's Wuhan institute studied deadly bioterrorism agent, Congress [has been] told.  China's Wuhan Institute of Virology, where the COVID-19 pandemic may have started, conducted work on a deadlier virus with a 60% lethality rate, according to recent Senate testimony.  Steven Quay, a medical doctor, told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs subcommittee on emerging threats that the Wuhan institute carried out synthetic biology research on the Nipah virus genome in December 2019, around the time the first COVID-19 cases surfaced in Wuhan.  Scientists are divided over whether the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 emerged naturally through animals or can be traced to a leak or accident at the Wuhan facility.  "The Nipah virus was in an infectious clone format," Dr. Quay testified.  "Nipah is a BSL-4 level pathogen and a CDC-designated bioterrorism agent.  This is the most dangerous gain-of-function research I have ever encountered.  We should assume this research continues to this day at the WIV."

You are 25X more likely to be injured and 20X more likely to die if you get the COVID shot.  I recently learned about conservative radio show host Wayne Root's stunning anecdotal evidence about the 200 people who attended his wedding.  He tracked what happened just 8 months after the wedding: 26 were injured and 7 died in the vaccinated group but nothing happened to people in the unvaccinated group, even though Wayne estimated that most of the guests were unvaccinated.  I loved the setup:  it's an almost "as good as it gets real-life randomized trial."  This is the type of post-marketing research the CDC should be doing: they should follow matched (or randomly selected) groups of vaxxed and unvaxxed people over time to document injuries and deaths just like Wayne did.  If Wayne can do this, why can't the CDC?

Never Forget Biden's Big Lie About COVID Shots.  In an ugly and remarkably authoritarian speech almost a year ago, Joe Biden declared that his "patience" was "wearing thin" with a "distinct minority" of Americans who refused the COVID vaccine.  Biden's remarks proved to be the start of a cruel and gratuitous attack on millions of Americans.  While Biden has since moved on to other scapegoats, his campaign of hatred against the unvaccinated should not be forgotten.  The "scientific" pretext of Biden's war on the unvaccinated was like something out of a pre-genocidal radio broadcast.  The unvaccinated were likened to filthy plague carriers recklessly and selfishly harming others.  Biden and others in his administration declared COVID a "pandemic of the unvaccinated."  While Biden's premise was known to be false from the start, the past year of experience has proven beyond all doubt that the shot is worthless at stopping transmission.  Biden and Anthony Fauci both know this personally, since both have experienced COVID recently despite being quadruple-vaccinated.  Moreover, both have experienced "rebound" infections.  Yet, Fauci had promised the shot would make the vaccinated into "dead ends" for virus spread, and Biden is on the record with similar claims.  Were Biden and Fauci spreading misinformation about the shot?  It sure appears that way.

Fauci booed before throwing first pitch at Mariners v. Yankees game.  Dr. Anthony Fauci was audibly booed by fans before he threw the first pitch at Tuesday's Seattle Mariners game against the New York Yankees.  Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, might have been seeking redemption when he stepped on the mound at T-Mobile Park prior to the game.  The nation's leading figure in the fight against COVID-19 was ridiculed in 2020 when he threw out a horrific first pitch before the Washington Nationals' opening day.

Dr. Fauci booed before throwing first pitch in Seattle.  Dr. Anthony Fauci was booed as he walked out to throw the first pitch at the Mariners game against the New York Yankees in Seattle.  Fauci, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director, was met with boos from fans in Washington state, which has had stringent COVID-19 mandates throughout the pandemic under Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee.  Some baseball fans on Tuesday cheered Fauci on, and the loud disapproval of others seems to have not affected his aim.  Fauci was ridiculed in 2020 after he threw an awkward first pitch at the Washington Nationals game.

President of Costa Rica abolishes COVID vaccine mandate.  Costa Rica's recently elected president abolished the country's COVID "vaccine" mandate on Wednesday [8/3/2022].  "As of today, the vaccines are not mandatory," President Rodrigo Chaves Robles announced during an August 3 press conference.  "And therefore any action taken against anyone who does not want to be vaccinated is an action that is against the law."

They're still dropping like flies.  I imagine that a lot of people are feeling betrayed right now.  They followed "the science" and got injected with a biologic that has caused, for many, some serious side-effects.  Stuff like myocarditis, fertility and menstrual changes, even a rise in cancer, and our newly discovered "sudden adult death syndrome."  The actuarial data prove a sharp increase in the death rate that corresponds closely with the increase in "vaccination."  People got COVID shots and, despite assurances of safety, at least one in ten suffered or died from them.  Now the "vaccinated" are getting COVID despite the shots.  In fact, in our hyper-vaccinated California neighborhood, almost everyone I know who got his shots has had COVID by now, some more than once.

Queensland Mothballs $223 Million Quarantine Camp Just 6 Months After Opening.  The Queensland state government will shutter a $223 million (US$154.6 million) COVID-19 quarantine facility in Wellcamp, west of Toowoomba, just six months after it was opened.  In the same announcement, Deputy Premier Steven Miles said another multi-million dollar, federal government-funded quarantine facility in Pinkenba, Brisbane — due to be finalised in a few weeks — would not be opened.  On July 27, Miles announced that the state would not continue leasing the Wellcamp-based Queensland Regional Accommodation Centre until Aug. 1.  Wellcamp is about 144 kilometres west of Brisbane, the state capital, while the federally funded $350 million, 800-bed Pinkenba facility is adjacent to the Brisbane Airport and cruise ship terminal.

Closing Bars, Restaurants Did NOT Suppress COVID-19.  A study on the efficacy of shutting down bars and restaurants to stop the spread of COVID-19 found that the restrictions were "not an efficient way" to decrease virus transmission, concluding that it "does not contribute to the suppression of SARS-CoV-2."  "Using a large-scale nationally representative longitudinal survey, we found that the early closure of restaurants and bars decreased the utilization rate among young persons and those who visited these places before the pandemic.  However, symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 did not decrease in these active and high-risk subpopulations," explains a summary of the research paper.  The study — SARS-CoV-2 Suppression and Early Closure of Bars and Restaurants:  A Longitudinal Natural Experiment — was conducted by researchers in Japan and published in the peer-reviewed journal Scientific Reports.

Wayne Root's story is nearly impossible to explain if the vaccines are safe.  [Scroll down]  If you have a sufficiently large number of verifiable anecdotes such as this one, science says that the hypothesis that the vaccines are a disaster is much more likely than the alternative hypothesis that the vaccines are perfectly safe.

Fourteen young Canadian docs die after getting the shot.  Normally would be ~0 over 30 years.  A doctor friend in Canada heard about 14 deaths of Canadian doctors over the last 9 months.  He's been in practice for 30 years.  He's never heard of any such deaths before.  Zero.  Why is he now all of a sudden hearing of so many deaths, and these deaths are all happening very soon after vaccination.  The fact checkers assure us all that this is simply coincidence.  The Canadian doctors continue to believe what they are told to believe.  I predict the next shots will be even worse.  Sadly, I don't think the Canadian doctors are ever going to figure this out.

Poll: Majority of Americans Regret Taking Covid Vaccine.  In an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, UCLA Geffen School of Medicine Doctor Joseph Lapado and Yale School of Public Health Doctor Harvey Risch are sounding the alarm that there may be serious underestimated risks involved with the side effects of the Wuhan Coronavirus vaccine.  This comes as an independent pollster found that a significant number of Americans regret receiving the vaccine in the first place.  10 percent of those vaccinated said they wish they hadn't done so, while 15 percent of adults said they have been diagnosed with a new condition by a medical practitioner weeks or months after the first dose.  Children's Health Defense (CHD) authorized the poll two years after the first vaccine was rolled out.

A Glance Ahead.  Who in the entire HHS-NIH-CDC bureaucracy has failed to notice that the mRNA "vaccines" have no efficacy whatever against Covid-19?  The vaccinated are by far those still getting sick and increasingly disabled from the disease and even more from the vaxxes themselves.  The emperor's new clothes hang in shreds.  Rumor is that many upper-level employees in these public health agencies are increasingly freaked out by their now-obvious complicity in a momentous crime.  They know they will have to answer for allowing the mRNA fiasco to get this far, for going along to get along, and they're preparing to mutiny to save their own asses.  Wait for it.

Joe Biden Likely to Extend National COVID Emergency Declaration — To Facilitate Mail-in Ballots and Harvesting?  Politico is reporting on the likelihood that Joe Biden is preparing to extend the national COVID-19 state of emergency through the 2022 midterm elections.  The debate, as outlined in just about every media narrative surrounding renewals of a national COVID emergency, is obtusely presented as if the primary political concern is public health.  Again, everyone must pretend not to know the true motive of the "emergency" is extending unilateral executive power and all of the control mechanisms therein.  One mechanism would include the use of 'Mail-in election ballots', which has absolutely nothing to do with public health.  The article appears to be somewhat testing the proverbial public winds.

The Editor says...
The purported battle against Covid was never about fighting a disease.  It was all about stealing elections and accumulating power.

Ron DeSantis Foe Rebekah Jones Has Her Latest Grift Shut Down in Glorious Fashion.  If you've followed the politics surrounding COVID-19 for any length of time, you are probably aware of a woman named Rebekah Jones, and depending on your source, you may or may not be completely misinformed.  The liberal media elevated Jones after she claimed to be a "data scientist" who was fired by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for not agreeing to cover up the Sunshine State's "real" COVID data.  She appeared on CNN many times, including being a favorite of Chris Cuomo.  Numerous press outlets also gave her credibility, using her "data scientist" title as a way to push the idea that she was a person of authority.  Reality painted a far different picture, though.  Jones was actually just a state employee who input data into Florida's COVID dashboard.  She is not a "scientist" and she has never provided an ounce of evidence that she was asked to falsify data.

It's the worst case of Covid ever!  Or maybe he never had Covid and the whole thing is a ruse to keep him out of sight.
Basement Biden still testing positive after 15 days and 4 Pfizer shots.  Hmmm?  COVID-stricken President Joe Biden will remain in isolation after testing positive for a seventh straight day, keeping the gaffe-prone career politician in a controlled environment as narrative engineers work on shifting public opinion about the deeply unpopular leader in the run-up to the critical midterm elections.  On Friday, Biden's physician Kevin O'Connor reported that the twice-jabbed and multiple-boosted 79-year-old has run his streak of positive results to a full week but said that the patient is showing signs of improvement and that his cough is "almost completely resolved."  "His temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation remain entirely normal," O'Connor added.  "This morning, his SARS-CoV-2 antigen testing remained positive."

Dr. Birx Admits She And Fauci Made Up 'The Science' On Lockdowns, Social Distancing.  President Trump's former Covid-19 adviser Dr. Deborah Birx has made several stunning admissions of late — first telling the Daily Mail that Covid-19 "came out of the box ready to infect" when it hit Wuhan, China in 2019 — and that it may have been created by Chinese scientists who were "working on coronavirus vaccines."  But it goes further than that.  As Fox News' Jesse Waters lays out, Birx admitted in her new book that she and Dr. Anthony Fauci were essentially shooting from the hip when it came to national directives such as "two weeks to stop the spread," and social distancing requirements.  According to Waters, Birx "admitted to making things up," adding that she and Fauci "were lying to the president and to the American people about their COVID protocols."  With the first lie; '15 days to stop the spread' — Birx writes "No sooner had we convinced the Trump administration to implement our version of the two-week shutdown than I was trying to figure out how to extend it."

This Is Where We Are Going, And Where You Will Follow If You Comply.  [Scroll down]  What I am asking is for you to never again comply with this incremental path toward evil.  Never again comply with the health mandates.  Never again comply with mask policies.

Get Ready For The 100 Year Long Climate "Emergency".  On March 13, 2020, then President Trump declared a "national emergency" due to the newly-arising outbreak of the Covid-19 virus.  Three days later, on March 16, Trump set forth a program of "15 Days to Slow the Spread."  The program included strong recommendations for anyone who felt sick, or had tested positive for the disease, to stay at home during the two-week emergency window.  Here we are now some two years and four months later.  The supposed Covid-19 15 day "emergency" has been repeatedly extended, first by Trump through the last ten months of his term, and then for the additional 18 months since January 2021 by President Biden.  It's been two-plus long years of lockdowns, work from home, business closures, school closures, mask mandates, vaccine mandates, and on and on, with little to no evidence that any of it ever did any good.  On Monday July 18 (2022) President Biden extended the Covid-19 "emergency" for yet another 90 days to mid-October.  You might think that the whole concept of an "emergency" has lost all meaning if it can somehow persist for more than two and a half years, well past the point where normal people have stopped paying any attention to it whatsoever. [...] Years later, it's still an "emergency" if the bureaucrats want it to be.  Or at least, that's their view.

Whatever Happened To That New COVID Surge Everyone Was Freaking About?  As recently as two weeks ago, the big story of the day was the coming surge of a new, highly infectious COVID variant, called BA.5.  The Biden administration warned about it.  Los Angeles county considered renewing its indoor mask mandate.  The head of the World Health Organization said that "new waves of the virus demonstrate again that the Covid-19 [pandemic] is nowhere near over." [...] Well, the data from the Centers for Disease Control show that the number of new infections has remained pretty flat since late May and is now trending downward.  In, fact, the rate of new infections appears to have topped out right when the media were playing up the coming "surge."  CDC data show that the seven-day moving average for new cases peaked at 129,823 on July 17.  It had fallen to 119,034 by Aug. 2.

There is No Such Thing as 'Public Health'.  Truth be told, there is no such thing as "public health;" only individuals are diagnosable, and each has a unique physiological state for which a tailored treatment is almost always the best.  The notion of a discernible "public health" drove creation of public health bureaucracies, like FDA, CDC, and HHS, together with state health bureaucracies, like the medical and health specialty licensing boards.  Over the years, ever more voluminous public health directives have de-emphasized and undermined individual freedom of choice in health care, exercise of individual professional judgment, and the doctor-patient relationship.  Today, physicians are routinely vexed when the treatment they believe best based on education, experience, and training is effectively disallowed by proxies for government overseers.

Time to Give the Conspiracy Theorists a Break?  The purpose of accusing people of being conspiracy theorists is to discredit those who notice patterns, connect dots, and ask questions.  And the goal is to shut down not just their speech, but also their thinking.  If all the naturally analytical people stop themselves from theorizing about what they're seeing in the cultural and political landscape with a dismissive conspiracy theory wave, well then, the enemy can get away with a lot more.  And if you think that is a conspiracy theory, there is a bridge I want to sell you.  Conspiracies have happened in the past, and to think they can't happen again is naïve at best and suicide at worst.  The possibility of bio-warfare has been talked about for years.  Genocide has happened before, and it can happen again, and it doesn't take a gas chamber to do it.  Evil people have existed before, and they exist now.  Conspiracies are a possibility, and we ignore that fact at our own peril.

The Results Are In:  Red States Won The COVID Fight, Hands Down.  In the state-level struggle for the future of America, there can be little doubt:  The Red State model of free markets, low taxes, and minimal regulation is beating the daylights out of the Blue State model of top-down control, high taxes, and pervasive nanny-state regulation.  But will it last?  The Wall Street Journal, deploying data from the center-left Brookings Institution, last month reported that Blue states, those governed by Democrats, were still 1.3 million jobs short of where they were before the COVID-19 pandemic.  Red states, those led by Republicans, had managed to add 350,000 jobs.  A big reason for the disparity is the fact that millions fled Blue states during COVID.

Canada's Search-and-Destroy Mission Against Doctor Refusing to Surrender Medical Records of Covid 'Vaccine' Exempt Patients.  "For the College, I just hope and pray that they come out of this darkness and back to the truth because at the moment they are now complicit with injuries and death."  Dr. Mary O'Connor.  Patients of an Ottawa doctor have had their medical privacy threatened by the Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons, which is demanding that Dr. Mary O'Connor release their records and charts for inspection.  In an exclusive interview for RAIR Foundation USA, Dr. O'Connor, a general practitioner for 30 years, who has most recently been specializing in mental health and addiction disorders for the past 13 years, explains why she is refusing to comply with the College and a court order to release confidential medical files.

We're Finally Having a Hearing About Labs Super Charging Viruses.  Republican Senator Rand Paul is holding a hearing Wednesday about dangerous gain-of-function research.  The practice was banned from receiving federal funding years ago, but was resumed by Dr. Anthony Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and conducted in Chinese labs.  More specifically, in Wuhan.  "The purpose of this hearing is to examine issues involving gain-of-function research, which attempts to enhance the severity and transmissibility of existing viruses that may infect humans or other mammals," Paul's office previewed in statement.  "Gain-of-function research has historically been supported by tax dollars both domestically and internationally; as such, this hearing lies at the intersection of the subcommittee's two primary jurisdictional responsibilities — monitoring emerging threats and conducting oversight of federal spending."

Fifth Toronto-area doctor dies two weeks after the rollout of the fourth COVID vaccine.  Another Toronto-area doctor died last week, bringing the total number of doctors to die within two weeks of the province's fourth COVID shot rollout to five.  Dr. Candace Nayman, a 27-year-old pediatrician at McMaster Children Hospital in Hamilton, Ontario — a smaller city near Toronto — tragically died Sunday after unexpectedly collapsing while competing in a triathlon the previous Thursday.  While the cause of death for the young doctor has not been released, a report by LifeSiteNews shows that Nayman's death comes during the same two-week period four other Toronto-area doctors died.

Genetically engineered COVID virus was deliberately leaked from the lab:  China expert Steven Mosher.  [Steven] Mosher, an expert on Chinese affairs and author of the new book The Politically Incorrect Guide to Pandemics, shared how Communist China purposely tricked the U.S. and other nations into tanking their economies and chasing after the chimera of "zero COVID."  Outlining the central arguments in his book, Mosher also argued that China has long been a "breeding ground" for various pandemics.  Early 2020 was far from the only time China covered up details of an emerging pandemic and tried to benefit from it as much as possible.  Mosher also told me the COVID virus was "genetically engineered" and "deliberately released around the world" from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Senate witness cites Fauci for 'repeated demonstrably false' denials of gain-of-function research.  In a Senate hearing on gain-of-function (GoF) research on viruses, which some scientists believe is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, longtime National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci came in for particular scorn.  Dr. Fauci has made "untruthful" statements on "repeated occasions to the public, to the press and to policymakers," Rutgers University molecular biologist Richard Ebright told the Senate Homeland Security Emerging Threats Subcommittee at a hearing Wednesday chaired by ranking member Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), according to the Daily Caller.  "I do not understand why those statements are being made because they are demonstrably false," Ebright continued, explaining that GoF research creates "new health threats ... that did not exist previously and that might not have come to exist by natural means for tens, hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of years."

Big Pharma Director Predicts A New COVID Variant That Will Evade "Vaccines" By November.  An Indian big pharma director of Bharat Biotech (BB) International Limited says that a new COVID variant that evades "vaccines" is coming no later than November of this year.  But we've already seen literally everything evade the four COVID shots being injected in whoever is naive enough to take them. [...] Dr. Ella claims that a new variant capable of escaping "vaccine protection" (which is hilarious considering the fully vaccinated and boosted are by and large the ones getting sick and dying of everything right now) will surface by November.  This vaccine escapable variant will be stopped by — you guessed it — a vaccine!  It's becoming laughable what the ruling classes insist we believe.

Dr. Robert Malone: 'Gaslighted, Ridiculed, Defamed' — But Not Discredited.  By now, many of you will be familiar with Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of the core mRNA and DNA vaccine platform technology that the various COVID shots are based upon.  (To be clear, he's not the inventor of the COVID shots themselves but rather the foundational platform that underlies them, for which Malone holds several patents.)  Malone rose to prominence after his appearance on the DarkHorse podcast in June 2021, where he, Steve Kirsch and DarkHorse host Bret Weinstein, Ph.D., spent three hours dissecting the COVID fraud.  Interestingly, Malone and Kirsch were both double-jabbed before realizing there were problems with the shots, but once they did, they boldly stepped into the limelight to warn and inform others.  Malone also appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast Dec. 30, 2021, which ended up being the most-viewed podcast of all time with some 50 million views.  The transcript of that interview was even entered into the Congressional Record on Jan. 3 by Congressman Troy Nehls, R-Texas, after Twitter and YouTube removed it from their platforms.

9-Year-Old Dies Two Weeks After Taking COVID-19 Vaccine:  VAERS.  The most recent VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) data shows that a 9-year-old died in California two weeks after getting one dose of a Pfizer-BioNTech jab.  The female child had no listed preexisting conditions and was not hospitalized.  She experienced 2-3 days of "stomach ache, sore throat and chest pain; two weeks after receiving the vaccination," the database states.  United States VAERS data from Dec. 14, 2020, to July 22, 2022, show that there were 12,232 adverse events in 5- to 11-year-olds, including 313 "serious" cases and 9 deaths.  In addition, the database lists 24 cases of heart inflammation, 47 cases of blood clotting disorders, and 101 reports of seizures in the same age group.

The Covid 'Vaccine' Scam.  What is in the EUA "vaccine" exactly?  This new technology — mRNA — has not been FDA approved after over 20 years of research?  Consider there was no vaccine for HIV after 40 years of research.  There were no vaccines for cancer after 100 years of research.  No vaccines for a coronavirus — the common cold or some derivative which historically lasts two years before dying out — such as SARS and MERS.  And yet when a mysterious deadly coronavirus from China appeared on America's shores, within a year we not only have a "COVID-19 vaccine" but a "vaccine" found by four pharmaceutical companies within a week — with new technology that you will be impressed with.  But there is a catch:  we cannot ask any questions, like asking your doctor if 32 pages of side effects is right for you.  The unvaccinated wanted to know what's in the "vaccines."  Are they inactivated vaccines or attenuated vaccines?  No one knows because there are no documents to attest the EUA concoctions are Wuhan wet market sewer water or the biological equivalent of the FDA Approved vaccine or something else, like mRNA.  It is revealing that the pharmaceutical companies have been unwilling to reveal the contents of their mRNA EUA "vaccines."  They want to wait 75 years before telling anyone.  Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA technology said the vaccine is gene therapy.

Court documents show science did not justify Canadian government-imposed unvaccinated travel ban.  According to recent court documents, the Liberal government's almost nine-month ban on domestic and foreign travel for vaccine-free Canadians was not based on science.  [Tweet]  National Post contributor and freelance journalist Rupa Subramanya published a piece for Bari Weiss' Common Sense substack wherein she outlined the details from newly released documents that show a lack of scientific rationale for the unprecedented ban.  She wrote that "recently released court documents — which capture the decision-making behind the travel mandate — indicate that, far from following the science, the prime minister and his Cabinet were focused on politics."  Subramanya was referring to information that has been revealed to the public as part of a lawsuit filed by two Canadian residents against the government.

Pennsylvania Woman Arrested at Doctor's Office, Declined Care Over Refusal to Wear a Face Mask.  Rayne Barton, 62, didn't expect that her first visit to the doctor in months would end in arrest, but there she was on July 22, in the waiting room with her wrists handcuffed behind her back.  She would not be seeing the doctor that day.  Barton, of Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, would not leave as requested after she refused to wear a COVID-19 face mask, which is required at Hypertension and Kidney Specialists in Lancaster.  Hypertension and Kidney Specialists is an independent practice with an office on the Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health Suburban Pavilion property.  At the request of the office manager at Hypertension and Kidney Specialists, the East Hempfield Township Police removed Barton from the building, according to a criminal complaint.  She was taken in a wheelchair, put in a squad car, and driven to the police department to be fingerprinted and photographed.

The Corruption of the World Health Organization (WHO).  Abir Ballan, author of the June 2022 piece titled "The WHO Review and Why it Matters to You? has documented the corruption by WHO/global leaders and governments concerning Covid treatment.  In essence, Ballan's findings are a call to action to "reassess the WHO's candidacy as an authoritative global public health organization" and the necessary actions needed to "safeguard" people's "health sovereignty."  With the unending mismanagement of Covid treatment and the WHO's influence on so many countries, it is a critical call to action.

COVID Vaccine Injuries Quietly Being Compensated Around the World, Are You Eligible?  Despite the fact that we are constantly and consistently assured that COVID-19 vaccines are safe, and that severe adverse reactions are "very rare," the FDA and the CDC with its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, as well as the scientists and executives at each of the participating drug companies, know that some people will become permanently disabled or even die as a result of vaccination.  In fact, in 2011 the Supreme Court of the United States reiterated the idea that vaccines, like other pharmaceutical products, are "unavoidably unsafe."  In many countries around the world, consumers who are injured as a result of vaccines are covered by government compensation programs.  In the United States there are two government-funded programs that are designed to compensate consumers for injuries, at the same time shielding vaccine manufacturers from liability for any serious injuries their products cause:  The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) and the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP).

WH Delivers More Confusion About Biden's COVID Symptoms.  Joe Biden was diagnosed with COVID on July 21. He had negative tests last week, but then tested positive again on Saturday [7/30/2022].  Both his doctor, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, and Joe Biden himself said he had no reemergence of symptoms. [Tweet]  But then on Monday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Biden had no "reoccurring symptoms" and then in the next breath suggested he had lingering symptoms.  The doctor's letter from Monday morning never mentioned that.  [Tweet]

The vaccines have failed.  The mRNA vaccines have failed.  Provably.  Indisputably.  The risk estimates released by Centers for Disease Control are politicized garbage, based on hospital and state data that intentionally underestimate the number of vaccinated Americans who have been hospitalized or died.  The raw numbers from other countries far are more trustworthy — and consistent.  They show that six months after injection, the basic two-dose mRNA vaccine regimen does not protect against Omicron and may even increase its risk.  This failure is not confined merely to infection but to severe outcomes like hospitalization. [...] The reality of mRNA jab failure is deeply unpleasant for governments and health bureaucrats.  They have spent the last 18 months touting and sometimes mandating these shots, with the active assistance of legacy and social media outlets.

What would the average patient need to know to be an informed participant in the decision?  [It's an interesting presentation, but this document includes only the slides from that presentation.]

No, mRNA Covid vaccines do not offer long-term protection from serious illness.  The report is based on hospitalizations across the Netherlands from March 15 through June 28, not a small sample.  And like the United States, the Dutch relied overwhelmingly on mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna — the supposed gold standard for Covid shots.  But the details in the report are even more disturbing.  The researchers stratified the risks of hospitalization and intensive care by time from vaccination and the age of the infected person — and those show that the risks increase over time.  After seven months, vaccinated people in their fifties and sixties had a 68 percent higher risk of being hospitalized for Covid compared to the unvaccinated.  They had a 41 percent higher risk of needing intensive care.  The trends were similar for people 70 and over, though most of them had been boosted or received a fourth shot, so comparisons were harder to make.

Chicago Health Care Workers' Class Action Against "Vaccine" Mandate Settle for $10.3 million.  Liberty Counsel is a Christian ministry that, among other things, advances religious freedom, the sanctity of human life and the family through strategic litigation.  In October 2021, Liberty Counsel sent a demand letter to NorthShore on behalf of numerous health care workers who had sincere religious objections to NorthShore's "Mandatory Covid-19 Vaccination Policy."  If NorthShore had agreed then to follow the law and grant religious exemptions, the matter would have been quickly resolved and it would have cost it nothing.  But, when NorthShore refused to follow the law, and instead denied all religious exemption and accommodation requests for employees working in its facilities, Liberty Counsel filed a class action lawsuit, along with a motion for a temporary restraining order and injunction.  Yesterday [7/30/2022] a settlement was agreed upon.  As a result of the settlement, NorthShore will pay $10,337,500 to compensate these health care employees who were victims of religious discrimination, and who were punished for their religious beliefs against taking an injection associated with aborted foetal cells.

U.S. government, CDC colluded with Google, Twitter, Facebook to censor important information about experimental covid vaccines.  America First Legal (AFL) filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to investigate unconstitutional acts between the federal government and the Big Tech social media platforms.  AFL obtained 256 pages of communication between the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Google, Facebook and Twitter.  These pages document egregious violations of the US Constitution and provide evidence that the Federal Government violated the Nuremberg Code.  AFL President Stephen Miller issued a statement:  ["]These explosive smoking-gun documents, obtained as a result of America First Legal's litigation against the Biden Administration, conclusively demonstrate that Big Tech has unlawfully colluded with the federal government to silence, censor, and suppress Americans' free speech and violate their First Amendment rights.  Government is expressly prohibited from censoring competing or dissenting viewpoints or from silencing its political opponents whether it does so directly or whether it uses an outside corporation to achieve its draconian, totalitarian ends.  AFL will not rest in the fight against illegal collusion between Big Tech and Big Government to trample on your voices and the Bill of Rights.["]

Athlete Deaths Are 1,700% Higher Since 2021 and Nobody's Allowed To Ask Why.  Professional athletes are supposed to be among the fittest people on the planet.  So why are unprecedented numbers of them suddenly dropping dead from heart-related problems?  According to officials statistics, the number of athletes who have dropped dead since the beginning of 2021 has skyrocketed compared to the yearly number of deaths of athletes recorded before Covid jabs were introduced.  A truth-worthy media would be highlighting these deaths on the front-pages, pulling out all the stops to investigate the facts surrounding the deaths.  We live in a very different world now.

Fully Jabbed Basketball Star Drops Dead 'Suddenly and Unexpectedly' at 20 After Massive Heart Attack.  Another fully jabbed basketball star has dropped dead "suddenly and unexpectedly" after suffering a massive heart attack.  On Sunday, July 24, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater basketball player Derek Gray collapsed while "playing the game he loved," the school announced.

Wisconsin College Basketball Star Suddenly Dies 'Unexpectedly' at 20 After a 'Cardiac Event'.  Whitewater is mourning the loss of a rising basketball star Derek Gray, who died unexpectedly on Sunday.  He was 20 years old.  On Sunday, July 24, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater basketball player Derek Gray recently "passed away unexpectedly" while "playing the game he loved," the school announced.  Gray was a standout player on the UW-Whitewater Men's Basketball team and a graduate of La Follette High School in Madison.  Gray's UW-Whitewater coach told 27 News that the player's sudden death occurred at a campus basketball camp and was cardiac-related.

US Government Reaches New Deal With Moderna for 65 Million COVID-19 Vaccine Doses.  The U.S. government has reached a new deal with Moderna for 65 million additional COVID-19 vaccine doses, the Biden administration announced on July 29.  The deal is valued at $1.7 billion.  Moderna will sell doses of its vaccine that target Omicron subvariants, according to the agencies that announced the agreement.  The actual contract has not yet been made public.  Moderna and other vaccine makers have been updating their COVID-19 vaccine formulations because the vaccines are based on the Wuhan strain, which has not been prevalent since 2020.  The vaccines have proven increasingly worse at protecting recipients as newer variants emerge.

'They Are Right on Our Predicted Schedule': Retired US Generals Issue Warning About New Pandemic Declaration.  Two retired U.S. generals, MG Paul Vallely, U.S. Army, and Thomas McInerney, USAF, raised concerns over the World Health Organization's recent declaration of monkeypox as a global health emergency, alleging potential ulterior motives.  "Each of us should not be alarmed by this alert as the credibility of WHO is in great question based on their actions and notices on COVID-19," Vallely told The Epoch Times.  "The rare designation means the WHO now views the outbreak as a significant enough threat to global health that a coordinated international response is needed to prevent the virus from spreading further and potentially escalating into a pandemic," Vallely said.  "Beware of this politically driven global organization that is funded by the global elite."

Medical Employees Win Historic Settlement in Case Against COVID Mandates.  Former and current NorthShore University Health System medical employees brought a class action lawsuit against NorthShore, alleging the company discriminated against them because they were denied religious exemptions from the company's vaccine mandate.  Now, in a big victory for freedom, NorthShore has agreed to settle with the employees.  They agreed to pay more than 500 current and former employees $10,337,500. NorthShore is also been required to change its policy to allow religious exemptions and rehire anyone who was fired or forced to resign for not getting the vaccine.  The Court still has to approve the settlement.  Once the Court approves it, the employees can apply to get their jobs back at the same seniority level.  The Liberty Counsel which represented the employees cheered the victory.

COVID reinfection rate with treatment Biden is taking is more than 40% — and not 2% as marketed.  Joe Biden has been re-infected with COVID after taking an anti-viral drug that leaves patients running a 40 percent risk of flare-up of the virus shortly afterwards.  Taking Paxlovid leaves COVID sufferers in danger of testing positive for the virus again very quickly after clearing their initial infection.  When Paxlovid came to market in December 2021, studies from Pfizer indicated that only 1-2 percent of patients who took the drug tested positive for Covid again shortly after finishing their dosage.  But other experts say the rapid reinfection rate is closer to 40 percent, and that Paxlovid can cause this issue by suppressing patients' immune systems too early, meaning their own bodies are unable to get a handle on COVID.

FDA Rejects Request to Revoke Emergency Authorization of Pfizer's Vaccine for Some Children.  U.S. drug regulators have rejected a request to revoke emergency authorization for Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for 12- to 15-year-olds.  "Petitioner has provided no basis to demonstrate that the EUA should be revoked," Dr. Peter Marks, a top Food and Drug Administration (FDA) official, wrote in a June 17 letter, which was made public on July 21.  He was responding to the Informed Consent Action Network, which in May urged the FDA in a citizen petition to revoke the emergency use authorization (EUA) for the shot, asserting that data has emerged since the EUA was issued in May 2021 shows the benefits of the vaccine do not outweigh the risks.  That data includes research estimating Pfizer's shot provides just 51 percent protection against the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, after six weeks; a study backed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that found the vaccine less effective against severe disease; and another study that effectiveness against Omicron-associated emergency department and urgent care visits was just 45- to 51-percent.

Photos from 23 countries show animals tangled in face masks, disposable gloves.  While face masks were once rare sightings, their use soared during the coronavirus pandemic, and they even became compulsory in many countries around the world.  Now, a study has warned of the impact that this surge in single-use plastic had on animals around the world.  Researchers from Dalhousie University scanned social media platforms to collect photos of wildlife tangled in face masks and disposable gloves.  In total, the team recorded 114 incidents in 23 countries from April 2020 to December 2021, with a significant majority of encounters involving birds.

Biden tests positive for COVID in 'rebound' case, doctor says.  President Biden tested positive for COVID-19 in a "rebound" case on Saturday, according to the White House.  "As described last week, acknowledging the potential for so-called 'rebound' COVID positivity observed in a small percentage of patients treated with PAXLOVID the President increased his testing cadence, both to protect people around him and to assure early detection of any return of viral replication," White House Doctor Dr. Kevin O'Connor said.  O'Connor said in the letter that Biden tested negative for COVID-19 on Tuesday evening, Wednesday morning, Thursday morning, and Friday morning, but tested positive on Saturday morning by an antigen test.

Biden tests positive for COVID again and goes back into White House isolation.  President Joe Biden says he's 'feeling fine' after he joined the growing number of people who have tested positive for Covid-19 days after finishing their course of Paxlovid, a powerful anti-viral treatment.  At least one prominent physician has warned that up to 40 percent of those who take a course of Paxlovid, end up testing positive for the virus again within 30 days.  Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a prominent cardiologist and professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University Hospital, tweeted: 'I think this was predictable.'  The doctor continued: 'The prior data suggesting 'rebound' Paxlovid positivity in the low single digits is outdates and with BA.5 is likely 20-40% or even higher.'

COVID-19 'State of Emergency' Keeps LA Residents Under Health Official's Thumb.  This week Angelenos got some good news when the county health director announced that, for now, she will not subject them to another indoor mask mandate.  But the announcement begs the question:  How is it that she continues to have the power to issue such mandates nearly two and a half years after the emergency was first declared?  The answer is the "emergency" order remains in place, and so does the director's mandate that masks be worn in taxis, Ubers, airports, and healthcare settings.  Los Angeles County first declared a state of emergency due to COVID-19 on March 4, 2020.  It stated that the emergency is "in response to increased spread of coronavirus across the country and six additional cases in LA County."  Yes, you read that correctly.  The county issued a state of emergency based upon the discovery of "six" new cases.

Mother Sues LAUSD After Son Received COVID-19 Vaccine Without Her Consent.  A California mother is suing the LAUSD after she says her 13-year-old son was given the COVID-19 vaccine in exchange for pizza without the mother's consent.  As RedState's Mike Miller reported, the 13-year-old attended the Barack Obama Global Prep Academy in South Los Angeles.  The teenager went home with a vaccine card after he was given the COVID-19 vaccine at school.

The Science of an Alzheimer's Disease Theory Was Questioned.  The Results Could Be Devastating.  The science community has taken it in the teeth the past couple of years.  The COVID pandemic exposed them as quasi-Democratic Party operatives.  Nothing they said was right.  The protocols they peddled didn't work.  When people pushed back and questioned these folks, they were met with derision and censorship from major platforms.  It turns out that the lockdowns didn't curb the spread.  If you bashed Dr. Anthony Fauci, you were attacking science.  Yeah, it was the typical reaction from the philosopher-kings when they get tossed for nonsense.  COVID probably irreparably damaged the credibility of the science community.  Now, a landmark study on Alzheimer's disease cited for over a decade by experts could be fake news.  As a result, dozens of papers written by a noted scientist studying the illness are also considered suspect.

Official Documents suggest Monkeypox is a coverup for damage done to Immune System by COVID Vaccination.  Do you not find it curious how in the space of 50 years, monkeypox has never really gotten off the ground outside of a couple of countries in Africa, but then within two years of the alleged emergence of Covid-19, monkeypox is suddenly in every Western nation and being hyped up by public health authorities and the mainstream media?  Even the Director General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has just overruled the World Health Organization and single-handedly declared monkeypox a Public Health Emergency of International Concern.  If you don't find any of the above curious then you won't want to read this because you may miss the latest episode of BBC News at 6 pm.  But if you do, you may or may not be surprised to find that evidence suggests the alleged monkeypox outbreak could actually be a result of the Covid-19 vaccination programme.  How?  Well, it has something to do with herpes, shingles, auto-immune blistering disease and the fact that Covid-19 vaccination greatly damages the natural immune system.

Science Isn't the Problem.  [Scroll down]  Masks?  Early on, it was clear that they might be helpful in some — but not all — situations.  Yet "science says" was used to push universal masking, even while driving in a car or walking in the woods alone.  Social distancing?  Policymakers shut down worship services and small businesses, destroying community and economic wealth.  After all, faith is an unnecessary chimera in the face of science, and the injection of large amounts of money guided by experts can solve all economic problems.  There was no nuance on these issues, just pure force — and force that appeared to be pushing towards greater centralized control.  It shouldn't be surprising that Anthony Fauci openly lying about masks to reach a social goal reduces the average person's trust in science.  It's not so much that "scientists" were making proclamations that often turned out to be untrue during the COVID-19 pandemic.  They made these declarations unilaterally, squashed dissent, contradicted common sense, and didn't appear to care about the consequences.  COVID-19 is just one in a long string of examples.

Dr Vernon Coleman: 'Only Morons wear Masks'.  Like most people with a brain, I haven't worn a mask at all during this fake pandemic.  (I did wear one when I was a medical student in the 1960s and a house surgeon in the 1970s.  And I wore one once in the 1980s when I was removing asbestos from an old house.  Asbestos fibres are quite large and easily stopped by a mask.)  Over a dozen scientific papers show clearly that masks are ineffective in preventing the movement of infective organisms, and/or reduce oxygen levels and expose wearers to increased levels of carbon dioxide.  The available medical evidence proves that masks do no good in preventing the spread of infection but do a great deal of harm to those wearing them.  A study in the journal Cancer Discovery found that inhalation of harmful microbes can contribute to advanced stage lung cancer.  Here are ten excellent reasons why anyone who wears a mask is a moron:  [#1] A study of 53 surgeons, published in the journal Neurocirugia concluded that 'exhaled carbon dioxide may be trapped inside face masks, inducing a decrease in blood oxygenation'.  Numerous other studies have confirmed this.  An N95 mask can reduce blood oxygenation by as much as 20% and this can lead to a loss of consciousness.

The Psyop of the Great Collapse and the New Social Contract.  [Scroll down]  But it suddenly hit me that what "they" are telling us through the press is never an accident — it is always propaganda.  Which means that the fear they are creating about the "coming crisis" is THE POINT — at least for the moment.  Very similar to what "they" did during the Corona scare, "they" are now using new kinds of boogeymen.  From a psyop perspective it is completely independent from whether, and to what extent, the heralded next threat is unreal (Covid) or somewhat more real (total collapse) — the point is to keep the populace on edge.  It is about shaping a master and servant type of psychological relationship between the state and its subjects.

Fauci: 'I Didn't Recommend Locking Anything Down' During COVID.  In an interview Monday [7/25/2022] on The HillTV's Rising, Dr. Anthony Fauci claimed that he "didn't recommend locking anything down" through the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Fauci is, of course, free to claim what he wants and spin history however he pleases, but he's not entitled to his own facts.  [Tweet]  In no particular order, here are 9 times Dr. Fauci made public statements that included recommending or affirming lockdown and closure decisions due to COVID-19. [...]

W.H.O. Appoints Veteran Communist Party of Britain Member to Advisory Panel.  A veteran Communist Party of Britain member has been appointed chair of a World Health Organisation (W.H.O.) lead advisory group.  Professor Susan Michie, director of the Centre for Behaviour Change at University College London (UCL), will head the W.H.O.'s Technical Advisory Group (TAG) on Behavioural Insights and Sciences for Health.  The Times reports the UCL academic, who is a frequent contributor on the BBC and ITV, has been a member of the Communist Party of Britain for more than 40 years.

Former CDC Director Fires Back at Fauci's 'Natural' Claim.  Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield rejected White House adviser Anthony Fauci's claims that it's more likely COVID-19 originated naturally.  In a recent interview, Fauci said he has an "open mind" but still believes that the virus occurred naturally after previously dismissing the theory that it emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in late 2019.  "It looks very much like this was a natural occurrence, but you keep an open mind," Fauci said.  When asked about Fauci's recent comments on Monday [7/25/2022], Redfield told Fox News that he still suspects COVID-19 emerged "from the laboratory" and "had to be educated in the laboratory to gain the efficient human-to-human transmission capability that it has."  "There's very little evidence, if you really want to be critical, to support" the natural emergence theory, he said.

Fauci: Covid Restrictions Should Have Been 'Much, Much More Stringent'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that if he could change anything about his response to the coronavirus pandemic, he would have recommended that the government impose "much, much more stringent restrictions" during the spring of 2020.  On Monday's [7/25/2022] edition of Rising, Fauci told hosts Robby Soave and Batya Ungar-Sargon that if he "knew in 2020 what I know now, we would do a lot differently."  "The insidious nature of spread in the community would have been much more of an alarm, and there would have been much, much more stringent restrictions in the sense of very, very heavy encouragement of people to wear masks, physical distancing, what have you," continued Fauci.

The Ultimate Goal:  Perpetual Dumbing Down of All Society in Order to Create a Slave State Ruled by the Few.  [Scroll down]  That next stage is and has been the fake and illusory threat of a 'virus' pandemic that does not exist and never did exist.  The real threat, as is most always the case, is the state's alleged solution to this non-existent threat purposely created once again to instill great fear in the hapless and indoctrinated public.  Once that fear was solidified, the very poisonous and actively toxic bio-weapon called the 'covid vaccine,' was let loose on all unsuspecting members of the vast majority that is the common population, among others.  As difficult as it is to swallow, hundreds of millions here, and billions around the world have succumbed to the fraudulent and absurd notion that all could die from a mystery 'virus'; one that has never once been isolated nor identified.  The state's answer to this manufactured 'menace' was that our freedoms were to be sacrificed, self-imprisonment was to become universal, lockdowns and quarantines were to be implemented, the economy was to be systematically destroyed, family was to be shunned, and only those injected with a mystery poison would be safe and allowed to move about in a world all at once acting as one in concert with each; just for the sake of totalitarian control over all. [...] All those who have taken the state's poison should be aware that they have voluntarily allowed their minds and bodies to be altered in an untold number of ways that will likely cause major adverse effects now and in the future, including sickness, maiming, mental incapacity, disease, and death.  This reality is already evident, as great harm and deaths by "unknown" causes is sky-rocketing here; over much of the western world, and across the planet in certain areas.  This is not accidental or natural; it is a planned outcome.  This set up is necessary in order for the ruling 'elites' and their henchmen in government, to claim ownership of all property, money, and people globally.

Conductor collapses mid-performance, dies from 'collapsing'.  73-year-old Austrian conductor Stefan Soltesz collapsed suddenly during a performance Friday night at the Bavarian State Opera, according to the New York Times.  He was pronounced dead later at the hospital. [...] The mainstream media have become exceedingly generous lately when suggesting possible causes of sudden death — which include shoveling snow, sleeping positions, postal codes, Tibetan glaciers, climate change, gardening and others — though they conspicuously refuse to mention any medical products recently forced on the world's population.

The Covid Vaccine Plot.  The Covid vaccine kills people.  This is hardly a secret, and the question naturally arises, why are people pushing the vaccine on us?  Why are they pushing this deadly drug on small children?  Answering this question takes us to the root of the dark forces controlling the world.  It's clear that those who push the vaccine know about its lethal effects.  As the great Dr. Naomi Wolf points out, "I've been silent for some weeks.  Forgive me.  The truth is:  I've been rendered almost speechless — or the literary equivalent of that — because recently I've had the unenviable task of trying to announce to the world that indeed, a genocide — or what I've called, clumsily but urgently, a 'baby die-off' — is underway.  The WarRoom/DailyClout Pfizer Documents Research Volunteers, a group of 3000 highly credentialled doctors, RNs, biostatisticians, medical fraud investigators, lab clinicians and research scientists, have been turning out report after report, as you may know, to tell the world what is in the 55,000 internal Pfizer documents which the FDA had asked a court to keep under wraps for 75 years.  By court order, these documents were forcibly disclosed.  And our experts are serving humanity by reading through these documents and explaining them in lay terms.  The lies revealed are stunning.

Doocy, Portnoy Torch WH Over Biden's Doctor Hiding From Press.  For the second press briefing in a row, the White House took a beating from reporters due to President Joe Biden's personal physician hiding from hungry reporters' questions on the state of Biden's COVID treatment, recovery, and overall health.  You know it's bad when reporters from CBS News, The New York Times, and NewsMax all grilled the White House COVID-19 response coordinator Ashish Jha on the administration's lack of transparency.  Due to Biden's bout of COVID, and the fact that White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre can't take questions from the media without stepping on rakes, Jha was trotted out to handle all questions related to Biden's illness and other public health-related topics.  CBS News Radio White House correspondent Steven Portnoy was the first to take on Jha over Biden's personal physician Kevin O'Connor's absence.

COVID-19 vaccine mandate sparks crisis in National Guard.  Republican lawmakers are calling on Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to rescind a policy that has cut pay and benefits for nearly 60,000 Guard and Reserve troops who have refused to be vaccinated for COVID-19.  The troops have also been barred from training exercises while the Pentagon weighs whether to boot them from the force.  "I understand ... law and order, discipline.  You tell the platoon to charge the machine gun, they got to do it," Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL), a former Green Beret with 26 years in uniform, said on Fox yesterday.  "But also, as leaders, we have to evaluate our orders and whether it's worth the risk.  And in this case, you have a vaccine that has now been shown not to stop the spread.  That it's a personal health decision on what kind of symptoms you want to endure versus guaranteed to lose tens of thousands of soldiers you can't replace."

Ugly Covid Lies.  After two years of unprecedented government tyranny in the name of fighting a virus, the prime instigators of this infamy are walking free, writing books, and openly pretending they never said the things they clearly said over and over.  Take Trump's White House Covid response coordinator Deborah Birx, for example.  She was, as the Brownstone Institute's Jeffrey Tucker points out in a recent article, the principal architect of the disastrous "lockdown" policy that destroyed more lives than Covid itself.  Birx knew that locking a country down in response to a virus was a radical move that would never be endorsed.  So, as she admits in her new book, she lied about it.  She sold the White House on the out-of-thin-air "fifteen days to slow the spread" all the while knowing there was no evidence it would do any such thing.

Three Doctors Die Within Four Days Shortly After Hospital Begins Injecting Staff With Fourth Covid Shots.  There are no coincidences.  Three young and otherwise healthy doctors died last week.  They were all working for the same hospital system.  Their deaths came days after their hospital started injecting staff with the fourth Covid shots.  Someone at the hospital has started anonymously blowing the whistle.  When this story broke yesterday, we started attempting to confirm it.  Conspicuously, nobody in the Mississauga hospital system is willing to confirm or deny any of it.  Coverup?

This is only slightly off-topic:
Tucker Carlson targets up a serious, dangerous crisis in American science.  Last week, University College London released a massive study showing that the antidepressants that the majority of adult Americans are guzzling like candy do not treat a chemical imbalance in the brain because depression isn't caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain.  This is just the latest in a series of body blows American science has taken in the past few years — and Tucker Carlson lobs some nuclear missiles, in the form of facts, targeting the way in which the pharmaceutical industry and government money have corrupted science, placing Americans at tremendous risk.

Fauci Wishes COVID Restrictions Had Been 'Much More Stringent'.  Asked if he could go back to March of 2020 and start over with the pandemic response, Dr. Fauci admitted that mistakes were made in his and the CDC's response to COVID's initial spread but refused blame for collateral damage caused by public health officials.  What he did admit?  That masking and social distancing restrictions should have been "much, much more stringent" than they were.

Fauci's Pension Will Be Bigger Than Biden's Annual Salary, Largest In Federal History.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is set to earn a pension larger than President Joe Biden's salary upon his retirement, further rendering him the highest-paid federal employee in American history, according to a Thursday report from Open The Books.  The government transparency nonprofit calculated that Fauci, who directs the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and works as Chief Medical Advisor to the president, will receive a $414,667 annual pension payout upon his retirement after Biden's first term concludes.  Because Fauci received a 5% salary increase from 2020 to 2021 and a 5.4% increase from 2021 to 2022, a conservative estimate of two more 5% increases leave him with a final salary of over $530,000.

Pastor sees massive legal victory after being thrown in jail for holding service during COVID lockdown.  Artur Pawlowski, a Canadian pastor who was arrested and jailed for holding a church service during a COVID lockdown, has had a resounding victory in court, setting aside the charges against him and reimbursing all fines.  Pawlowski is the minister of Calgary Street Church.  He was reportedly harassed and arrested by Calgary police in the middle of a highway on May 9, 2021, as he was driving home from church.  His congregants had gathered without masks for the service and it was deemed to be in violation of public health orders.  The pastor and his brother Dawid Pawlowski were charged with organizing an illegal in-person gathering, as well as "requesting, inciting, or inviting others" to participate in it with them.

FBI Investigated Fauci's Grant to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  The Federal Bureau of Investigation launched an inquiry into National Institutes of Health funding of bat research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the Epoch Times reports.  The FBI involvement, "adds to the international scrutiny on the Wuhan facility, which houses one of China's highest-level biosecurity labs that has been considered a possible source of the COVID-19 pandemic."  In an email obtained by Judicial Watch, an NIH investigation officer directs a message titled "Grant Questions — FBI inquiry" to FBI agent David Miller.  Heavy redactions render the extent of the investigation unclear but the name of the attachment corresponds to the NIH grant for "Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence."  The head of that project was Peter Daszak of the EcoHealth Alliance, which received nearly $4 million from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), headed by Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Willing Accomplices in The Greatest Crime of Our Lifetimes.  [Scroll down]  It was all just too convenient — the Democrat Party and their operatives in the media had all the bad news they needed to run with, incessantly, every single day.  The Chinese now had America in a weakened position with, they hoped, enough leverage among the Hollywood elite, professional athletes, and all of the media to carry the "bad orange man" message and negatively impact the upcoming election.  The messaging would not be enough, though.  Largely unknown Democrat party activists made sure to subvert election law in key cities and states and found either elected or appointed officials who would assist in enacting every election fraud conceivable.  All because of the pandemic, of course.  The same Democrat party propaganda ministry that presented the day-to-day, soul-crushing COVID-19 coverage, dutifully took part in covering up any negative press about the Biden Crime Family.  On election night, in those locations that were expected to have the tightest presidential election results, the counting stopped.  Overnight, votes for Joe Biden materialized and, by the weekend, the media gleefully anointed Joe Biden as President-Elect.  They then assured his installation with a non-stop barrage of reporting that the elections were "the most secure in our nation's history," so that there was "no evidence" of vote fraud, illegality, or malfeasance.

5 mistakes Dr. Anthony Fauci made on COVID that spelled disaster.  [#2]  Failing to protect the vulnerable:  As the coronavirus produced a cascade of corpses in geriatric Italy, but merely gave the young the sniffles, it was already clear by early March 2020, what demographic was at high risk.  The vulnerability of the elderly was shockingly confirmed in the following weeks by the speed at which the virus decimated the population of long-term-care centers in New York City and New Jersey — its spread accelerated by then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo's insane policy of confining the sick with the healthy.  At the same time, evidence clearly showed that the mortality risk was dramatically lower in younger age cohorts, and that for the very young the risk approximated zero.  As pointed out by the Great Barrington Declaration, signed by dozens of disease epidemiologists and public health scientists, "for children, COVID-19 is less dangerous than many other harms, including influenza."  From the beginning, public health professionals such as Scott Atlas, who joined the Coronavirus Task Force in August 2020, tried to get Fauci to focus on protecting the vulnerable.  When Atlas and other public health scientists tried to lay out how such a program could be successfully carried out — and, in fact, was being carried out in places like Taiwan and Sweden — Fauci publicly attacked their ideas as "nonsense and very dangerous."

Making It To Retirement.  [Scroll down]  OK, that's all disturbing enough, but it's actually much worse, because those injections appear to cause long lasting — possibly permanent — harm to the immune system.  Harm that is NOT specific to Covid, but rather affects the immune system generally.  The harm caused may differ by the individual — it will be at least five years before we have really good studies — but everyone who got themselves injected will be harmed to some extent because the mechanism of harm was injected.  So, we're not talking just about breakthrough cases.  We're talking about things that Dr. Malone and Dr. Ryan Cole have been talking about — heart attacks and strokes, damage to virtually all bodily organs, nervous system disorders, and cancers.  You name it — the key is that the mechanism for all this is introduced into the system by the injections.

US agencies aren't 'following the science' on COVID — and staff are too scared to complain.  The calls and text messages are relentless.  On the other end are doctors and scientists at the top levels of the National Institutes for Health, Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  They are variously frustrated, exasperated and alarmed about the direction of the agencies to which they have devoted their careers.  "It's like a horror movie I'm being forced to watch and I can't close my eyes," one senior FDA official lamented.  "People are getting bad advice and we can't say anything."  That particular FDA doctor was referring to two recent developments inside the agency.  First, how, with no solid clinical data, the agency authorized COVID vaccines for infants and toddlers, including those who already had COVID. And second, the fact that just months before the FDA bypassed its external experts to authorize booster shots for young children.  That doctor is hardly alone.

Birx: 'Vaccines Were Not Going to Protect Against Infection' — 'We Overplayed the Vaccines'.  Former White House COVID response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx told FNC "Your World" host Neil Cavuto that she was urging the vulnerable amid the current COVID-19 wave to take Paxlovid, an anti-viral medication as a means to protect against the virus.  However, she also acknowledged the vaccines were not as effective as many were led to believe and admitted health officials overplayed it.  "Well, if you're across the South, and you're in the middle of this wave, what's going to save you right now is Paxlovid," he said.  "But once we get through this wave, during that lull, you should get vaccinated and boosted because we do believe it will protect you, particularly if you're over 70.  I knew these vaccines were not going to protect against infection.  And I think we overplayed the vaccines.  And it made people then worry that it's not going to protect against severe disease and hospitalization.  It will, but let's be very clear — 50% of the people who died from the Omicron surge were older, vaccinated."

'He's done incalculable damage': the legacy of lockdown Fauci.  Dr. Anthony Fauci's career has produced a deluge of societal and cultural calamities, says one economist and political analyst.  "He's done incalculable damage," Jeffrey Tucker, entrepreneur and founder of the Brownstone Institute, commented in an exclusive interview with LifeSiteNews's Jim Hale, describing Fauci's influence upon the public.  "He worked very hard to suppress alternative views, worked very tightly with Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook, so he is responsible for a lot of the censorship that's been going on."  Despite being one of the United States' most influential doctors as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Tucker explained that Fauci's zealous efforts to control the COVID-19 narrative demonstrated a glaring malfeasance.

Dr. Jane Ruby:  Two new stunning discoveries found in blood clots from the COVID vaccinated.  Physician and author Dr. Jane Ruby shared more bombshell findings from board-certified embalmer Richard Hirschman during the July 18 episode of "Live with Dr. Jane Ruby" on Brighteon.TV.  The veteran medical professional said there are two new stunning discoveries related to the white fibrous clots Hirschman found in the dead bodies of vaccinated individuals.  Ruby also said Hirschman was able to verify that majority of the deceased people were jabbed with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine.  The white fibrous clots were pulled out of all the major arteries and veins in the thigh, groin, arms and neck.  Ruby, also a pharmaceutical drug development expert, showed the audience one of Hirschman's latest discoveries — a white fibrous clot with chunky ball sacs.  She pointed out that they may have grown intermittently and are almost like outgrowths of the original white fibrous clot.

Big Government Means Never Having to Say You're Sorry.  [Scroll down]  My screed would not be complete without discussing the COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters.  They didn't work.  In fact, they failed miserably.  As per the definition of "vaccine," the formulations our white-coated masters forced upon us totally failed to prevent the acquisition or transmission of COVID disease.  When something makes disease symptoms less severe, it's not called a vaccine; it's called a "therapeutic," and it's something the patient decides whether to try or not — not some Trump-hating, scarf-wearing bureaucrat hoping to score a lucrative future book contract.  The failed COVID vaccines that were jammed down American throats, although protecting no one from getting or spreading the bug, did have quite a few other side-effects.  The failed vaccines made many, many people in Big Pharma and Big Government very wealthy.  And refusing to take the failed vaccine caused cops, doctors, nurses, and pilots, among others, to get fired!

LA County Public Health's Ferrer Incredibly Denies Having Seen Study Her Department Published, Co-Authored by Her Daughter.  Since RedState published an exclusive story Tuesday regarding a CDC-published study regarding COVID protocols in Los Angeles County schools that was relied upon by the CDC and Los Angeles County Public Health to require masking in schools, and which was co-authored by LA County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer's daughter, who didn't disclose that relationship, there's been an intense local media focus on the story.  As a result, Ferrer faced numerous questions about the issue during her weekly press briefing Thursday and her response was incredible, as in, not credible. [...] Trust in public health authorities has eroded as "two weeks to flatten the curve" has turned into two-plus years of a State of Emergency in California and as we've witnessed officials openly flouting public health "orders" while the plebes are forced to pay the price.

Antibodies From Vaccines Interfering Instead of Neutralizing Because of Spike Protein Changes:  Dr. Risch.  The antibodies triggered by COVID-19 vaccines are interfering with people's immune systems as newer virus variants emerge, Dr. Harvey Risch said.  The two most widely-used vaccines in the United States, produced by Pfizer and Moderna, both work by sending messenger RNA into muscle cells, where they produce a piece of the spike protein from the virus that causes COVID-19.  The spike protein triggers the production of antibodies, which are believed to help prevent infection by SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, and fight illness if one still gets infected.  But the vaccines are based on the spike protein from the original virus variant, which was displaced early in the pandemic.  Since then, a series of newer strains have become dominant around the world, with the latest being BA.5.

On Cue, Biden Gets the COVID Pre-Election Panic Ball Rolling.  The buzz around conservative circles for weeks has been about just when and how the Democrats would start ramping up the COVID panic porn in order to lay the groundwork for a sequel to 2020's election "irregularities."  Who knew that the guy at the top would kick things into high gear?  In this era of casual conspiracy theories, it's not difficult to imagine that the Democrats have been doing everything but making Biden lick doorknobs and kiss hobos to get some pre-election Bat Flu. [...] They're hoping that COVID can once again be the shiny object that distracts voters from what they're actually peddling.  The odds that it will work again aren't that good.  But, bless their rotten little hearts, they're gonna keep trying.

Thousands of people are dying "unexpectedly" every week in the post-covid era.  For the week ending July 8, 2022, 10,232 deaths were recorded by the United Kingdom's Office for National Statistics (ONS), 432 of which were recorded as being related to the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19). This is nearly 1,000 more deaths than normal compared to pre-covid levels, a trend that has been going on for at least the past 11 weeks.  "Excess deaths," as they call them, have been noteworthy ever since Chinese Virus injections were first introduced.  Many now believe that the cause is the shot, which is why there have been calls to end the jabbing and boosting agenda.  "This is not just a U.K. phenomenon," said Dr. John Campbell, PhD, in a July 6, 2022, video.  "This is an international phenomenon."

Former NFL Star Dies After Cardiac Arrest, the Fourth Player to Die in Recent Weeks.  35-year-old Paul Duncan, who had formerly played for the Denver Broncos as a free agent after a college career for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, passed away due to cardiac arrest on July 16th.  His wife posted on social media that on July 15th Duncan had suddenly suffered a heart attack while on a run, and that on the 16th he was declared brain dead.  She also wrote that they will have a medical examination to determine the cause, and that his body will be donated to people in need of organs.

UK Government confirms the Triple / Quadruple Vaccinated account for 91% of all COVID Deaths since the beginning of 2022.  The British public has been distracted for the past few weeks with non-stop news of Boris Johnson's resignation as Prime Minister of the UK, speculation over who will replace him, and doomsday scenarios over a two-day heatwave that has now been and gone.  But while the mainstream media had the public attention focused on the above, the UK Government quietly published a report on Covid-19 deaths.  That report reveals that since the beginning of 2022, the vaccinated population have accounted for over 9 in every 10 Covid-19 deaths in England, and a shocking 91% of those deaths have been among the triple/quadruple vaccinated.

New study shows ivermectin can reduce chance of death by 92%.  A new large prospective observational study of 88,000 people shows ivermectin works; the greater the dose, the better it works. [...] If you were offered a drug like this, most every person would take it.  But the WHO basically says you should run in the other direction.  Here's what the WHO recommends you take instead (Molnupiravir, Sotrovimab): [...]

Joe Biden Breaks Mask Habit After Coronavirus Infection — Even in Close Proximity to Photographer.  President Joe Biden broke CDC guidelines on Thursday by refusing to wear a mask around others while infected with the coronavirus.  The CDC website states, "It is important to wear a mask or respirator when you are sick or caring for someone who is sick with COVID-19."  Biden shared a photo and video of himself, seemingly alone, on social media.  In order to capture those images, he had to be in close proximity to an individual holding a camera — and chose to go maskless:  [Tweet]

The Editor says...
Aren't we all expected to stay home from the office if we know we've got Covid?  Apparently there is a certain level of VIP above which that's not true.

Obviously the Covid claim is a cover story, if it won't stand up to the slightest scrutiny.
Karine Jean-Pierre on how Biden caught COVID: 'I don't think that matters'.  White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stunned reporters Thursday [7/21/2022] when she brushed off an inquiry about how President Biden caught COVID-19, saying:  "I don't think that matters."  Biden developed symptoms Wednesday evening — less than four days after he returned to Washington from a trip to Saudi Arabia — and tested positive Thursday morning, according to the White House.  "Where exactly was the president infected?" a journalist asked Jean-Pierre and White House coronavirus coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha at a briefing focused on the 79-year-old president's health.  "I don't think we know," Jha said, before turning over the podium to Jean-Pierre.

Religious Los Angeles Employees Sue City Over Discriminatory Vaccine Mandate.  In August 2021, the Los Angeles City Council and Mayor Eric Garcetti, with little ostensible political opposition, passed and approved an ordinance that would "require COVID-19 vaccination for all current and future city employees" with limited exceptions for those granted medical or religious exemptions.  The stated rationale was that "COVID-19 continues to pose a significant public health risk. ... Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent transmission and limit COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths. ... Unvaccinated employees are at a greater risk of contracting and spreading COVID-19 within the workplace, and risk transmission to the public that depends on City services."  "The City's goal," according to the ordinance, "is to have a vaccinated workforce."  Around the time of the passage of the ordinance, city leaders attempted to convey the importance of the measure.  A few weeks prior to its passage, a press release found on the L.A. mayor's website quoted Garcetti as saying, "[W]e're committed to pursuing a full vaccine mandate."

LA County Public Health Dir.  Ferrer Seen at MLB All-Star Game Despite 'High' Transmission Announcement Thursday.  Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer was caught on video at the Major League Baseball All-Star Game Tuesday, despite the fact that she said the county is at the high transmission level for COVID-19 on Thursday.  The clip shows Ferrer outdoors maskless, with her mask dangling on her arm in the large crowd, Fox Los Angeles reporter Travis Rice shared on Twitter.  The Instagram account Vintage Los Angeles Crime originally posted the clip of her at Dodgers Stadium.  [Tweet]

Fully Vaccinated Canadian Woman Is Ordered Into 2 Week Quarantine Because She Didn't Have An App On Her Phone.  A fully vaccinated Canadian senior was given a 14-day quarantine order because she did not use the Trudeau Government's ArriveCAN app.  "I shouldn't have to go through this, no Canadian should," she said.  [Video clip]

Researchers Suspect New Variants of Rapidly Progressing Brain Degenerating Diseases From COVID-19 Vaccines.  Things have not been the same since June 2021 for 53-year-old Douglas Howey from Colorado.  Around a year after he received the second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, the 6 foot 4 and a half inch paraplegic man who once weighed 262 pounds lost over 100 pounds after the sudden onset of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), an incurable and fatal disease that gradually kills a person's motor neurons.  Though he never told his doctors that he started developing symptoms a month after the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, his family thinks that his sudden sickness a month later and dramatic weight loss within weeks seemed like too much of a coincidence.  This suspicion was further confirmed after Linda Howey, Douglas's mother, heard a podcast by Del Bigtree where Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a senior researcher from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, talked about her research on possible links between neurodegenerative diseases and the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.

Will 100 Million Die From the COVID Vax by 2028?  In this revealing interview with Greg Hunter of USAWatchdog.com, David Martin, Ph.D., presents evidence that COVID-19 injections are not vaccines but bioweapons that are being used as a form of genocide across the global population.  In March 2022, Martin filed a federal lawsuit against President Biden, the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services alleging that COVID-19 shots turn the body into a biological weapons factory, manufacturing spike protein.  Not only is the term "vaccination" misleading when referring to COVID-19 shots, it's inaccurate since they are actually a form of gene therapy.  "And we are not only not going to be sued for, you know, any libel or misinformation, we are actually holding people criminally accountable for their domestic terrorism, their crimes against humanity and the story of the coronavirus weaponization that goes back to 1998," Martin says.

How Face Masks Make You Sick Instead Of Protecting You.  During the COVID-19 pandemic, 80% of U.S. states mandated masks to slow the spread of SARS-CoV-2, but accumulating research shows mask mandates and use do not lower the spread of the virus.  While rules requiring masks did increase compliance, they didn't translate to lower transmission growth rates, whether community spread of SARS-CoV-2 was low or high.  Even before COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, mask mandates were put in place without ever properly evaluating efficacy, but that didn't stop them from dividing communities and being used as a form of virtue signaling and a visible reminder of compliance with the "new normal."  Now, with research showing not only that masks don't protect you but may actually make you sick, the rationale behind their widespread mandated usage must be questioned.

Covid cases in Singapore and New Zealand overtake Australia despite super strict mandates.  New data shows Covid cases in Singapore and New Zealand have overtaken Australia in the latest Omicron wave despite ultra-strict mask mandates.  Masks are worn everywhere in the densely-populated Asian city while New Zealanders are forced to wear them in all indoor public places, such as shopping centres and libraries.  But both now have higher case numbers per million than Australia, where compulsory mask rules have been abandoned in most indoor settings.

Los Angeles Will Soon Be In Shackles Again.  Los Angeles County reached the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's high community level last week.  Which is "determined by looking at hospital beds being used, hospital admissions, and the total number of new COVID-19 cases in an area."  If it remains "there for the next two weeks," the Los Angeles Times reported Friday, "the county will reissue an indoor mask mandate with an effective date of July 29," not even five months since the most recent of its multiple mask mandates was lifted.  Though she's likely to deny it, Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer, who is not a doctor, not a physician's assistant, not a nurse, not even a receptionist at a doctor's office, but a social welfarist, has been looking forward to July 29 for some time.

Court Strikes Down "Quarantine Camp" Regulation in New York State.  We have had a tremendous victory here in New York: a Supreme Court Judge has struck down Governor Kathy Hochul's forced quarantine regulation!  On July 8, 2022, Judge Ronald Ploetz ruled that the "Isolation and Quarantine Procedures" regulation is unconstitutional and "violative of New York State law as promulgated and enacted, and therefore null, void and unenforceable as a matter of law."  Shockingly, New York's Governor, Kathy Hochul, and Attorney General, Letitia James, plan to appeal the decision.  Yes, that's right... the Governor and AG, both unabashedly support quarantine camps!  One would think that this fact, in and of itself, would be disturbing enough but add to it the fact that they're both running for election this November, and you can see just how unconstitutionally brazen and wholly out-of-touch with New Yorkers each of these "leaders" is.

A Mostly Peaceful Depopulation
  •   Why are governments, public health agencies, the media, Big Tech, and "experts" stoking fear instead of calmly assessing the data and attempting to dispel panic — like every responsible authority has done for genuine crises in the past?
  •   Why are all of these entities speaking in unison with a single voice as if everyone has been handed the same script?
  •   Why are they covering COVID 24/7 on every available outlet, drumming up the death tallies and case counts and behaving as if it were the only newsworthy story on the planet?
  •   Why are people all suddenly parroting the same phrases like "social distancing," "New Normal," "Build Back Better," and the Orwellian double-think gem "together apart"?
  •   Why does it seem like everyone has suddenly lost their capacities for critical thinking, reasoning, logic, and scientific analysis?

LA Hospital Officials Dismiss COVID-19 'Media Hype' as Mask Mandate Looms.  Two officials at one of the largest hospital systems in Los Angeles and Southern California dismissed government officials' statements about another wave of COVID-19 hitting the region and the United States as "media hype."  Los Angeles County health director Barbara Ferrer last week said that her county is now seeing a "high" level of COVID-19 transmission, suggesting that indoor mask mandates might be reimposed.  But in a recent news conference on July 13, Brad Spellberg, the chief medical officer of Los Angeles County and University of Southern California Medical Center, and epidemiologist Paul Holtom, said that there have been no changes in the transmission levels of COVID-19.  "It's just the same.  It's not changed.  It's been the same.  It's like... two months of the same," Spellberg said.

86 Year Old Man In A Wheelchair Is Threatened With A 5k Dollar Fine In Toronto For Not Having An App On A Phone He Doesn't Own.  This poor elderly man in a wheelchair was threatened with a 5k dollar fine by this Toronto airport worker for not having an ArriveCAN app since the 86-year-old doesn't own a mobile phone.  The Canadian website states:  You must use ArriveCAN to provide mandatory travel and public health information before and after your entry into Canada.  ArriveCAN is not only keeping travelers safe but is part of our ongoing efforts to modernize cross-border travel.  ArriveCan is used to verify the vaccine status of all those entering Canada.  Anyone 12 and old needs proof of vaccination to enter Canada.

Billions Continue to Be Laundered Through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to China's Biowarfare Program.  The National Institutes of Health funds China's biowarfare program in ways similar to shell companies laundering money.  It is now an indisputable scientific fact that the COVID-19 virus was created in a laboratory in China and that work was linked to China's biowarfare program.  There is also an abundance of evidence that funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically Anthony Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), contributed to that effort and U.S. government officials and members of the scientific community attempted to cover-up the laboratory origin of the COVID-19 virus and their potential complicity in its creation.

Fighting back against COVID and Climate Change tyranny.  The phrase "New World Order" ("NWO") is a loaded term.  For starters, the people who are pushing for a single world government prefer to call it "The Great Reset."  Additionally, NWO sounds like the ultimate conspiracy theory, complete with indivisible dots, imaginary lines, and tin foil hats.  And yet there's no doubt that the self-anointed elites across the world have coalesced around a single vision that involves ending fossil fuel and achieving total control over individuals to "protect" them from COVID.  Still, people across the globe are pushing back and one group has a global vision of what this pushback can look like.  During COVID's first two years, we learned that most First World governments happily embraced tyranny.  Even in the face of mountains of evidence that the lockdowns and mask and vaccine mandates did nothing to improve the situation, governments not only didn't stop, but they also dug in deeper, systematically taking away people's rights.

Deborah Birx's "Silent Invasion": a Guide to Destroying America From Within.  Part of the fun of reading Snake Oil:  How Xi Jinping Shut Down the World is that you get to put yourself in the dictator's shoes.  In the book, Xi is an allegory for the Chinese Communist Party in the 21st century.  Xi's "lines" break up the writing with dark humor, a satirical jab at western elites' blasé attitude toward an advanced, totalitarian regime with overtly-manipulative goals.  The book invites you to see through the bad guy's eyes and imagine just how easy it was to subvert the free world into totalitarianism using the response to a perfectly banal virus.  Alas, to that end, my book has been upstaged by the work of Deborah Birx, White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, one of the "Trifecta" of three leading officials behind Covid lockdowns in the United States.  Virtually every page of Birx's monstrosity of a book, Silent Invasion, reads like a how-to guide in subverting a democratic superpower from within, as could only be told through the personal account of someone who was on the front lines doing just that.  Notably, though Birx's memoir has earned relatively few reviews on Amazon, it's earned rave reviews from Chinese state media, [...]

Former Trump COVID Honcho Birx Admits to Deceiving the White House and Just Making Stuff up to Push Her Personal Agenda.  Dr. Deborah Birx, White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator for President Trump, launched her book about her one-person attack on our form of government and our economy under the guise of saving us from the Wuhan virus.  Though it has been out for a couple of months, it is only now attracting the attention it deserves.  The book is called Silent Invasion and, to quote Michael Senger, "reads like a how-to guide in subverting a democratic superpower from within, as could only be told through the personal account of someone who was on the front lines doing just that."

Inflation Has Now Devoured All Biden's COVID 'Rescue' Checks.  When he signed the "American Rescue Plan" into law in March 2021, President Joe Biden bragged about how it would put "$1,400 checks into the pockets of millions of Americans; help to keep folks in their homes; help to put food on the table."  A family of four was in line to get $5,600, he said.  What he didn't tell the public was that the rampant inflation his "rescue" plan would unleash would cost Americans more than the $1,400 Biden was handing out.  Much more.  Biden's $2 trillion "rescue" came after the Trump administration had already rushed through two massive COVID relief bills and at a time when the economy was already roaring back from the COVID lockdowns.  Which is why many economists, including liberal economists like Larry Summers, warned that Biden's "rescue" would spark runaway inflation.  And, despite repeated promises from the White House that such a thing would never happen, the Consumer Price Index shot up 8.3% in the first half of this year.

Is there a medical emergency?  Senator Rand Paul has accused Dr. Fauci and the White House (which is captured by the HHS Administrative State) of "emotionalism and sensationalism" leading up to the renewal of the determination of a continuing medical emergency attributable to COVID-19 disease and SARS-CoV-2 infection.  Is this medical emergency justified, or does it reflect yet more mis- dis- and mal-information from the HHS Administrative state acting in coordination with corporate media to propagate Fearporn to justify the continuing suspension of medical ethics, normal regulatory process, censorship, and war profiteering by the medical-pharmaceutical industrial complex?

Cellular Immunologist:  The Vaccines "Can't Work" Because COVID Is A "Common Cold Virus".  Professor Edward J. Steele, who is an Australian molecular and cellular immunologist, geneticist, and microbiologist, says the COVID-19 "vaccines "can't work" because the disease they are meant to prevent is a "common cold virus."  Steele said:  "I've got to stress: this is a common cold virus, 99.9% of people get rid of it." [...] Steele says that the vaccines can't work because a jab in the arm can't stimulate a mucosal antibody response in the nose, mouth, and intestinal tract where they are needed to neutralize the virus before it can enter cells and replicate.  This is the path to natural immunity for those who have something like a common cold, which all COVID-19 is, all it has ever been, and why a "vaccine" isn't possible to prevent a cold.  Steele knows this, and so do his colleagues.  Even regular people are wondering why on earth political parasites in the ruling class would continue to push for people to be injected with something that won't prevent what they say it does and is degrading the immune system.

Firefighters to file suit for $171 million due to terminations over vaccine mandates.  10 employees of Eastside Fire & Rescue in King County, Wash. plan to file tort claims for more than $171 million in damages suit against their old employer for wrongful termination.  According to Fox 13, former firefighter Rocky Martinez was told by the department they wouldn't accommodate his religious exemption and that he feels betrayed by the agency he devoted a life of service and sacrifice.  He told the outlet, "It hurts when I see a unit going by.  I should be doing that."

The Feds Pile Up Vaccine 'Adverse Event' Reports as They Decry Scaremongering Elsewhere.  Since the Food and Drug Administration authorized the first vaccines for COVID-19 in late 2020, the government and much of the media have insisted that the medicines developed in record time are safe and effective.  Those who raised questions about them have been routinely dismissed as conspiracy theorists.  And yet an online database co-administered by the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control has compiled more than 1.3 million reports of vaccine-implicated "adverse events" running the gamut from mild to severe, including 29,000 deaths.  Representative entries include:
  •   A 44-year-old male from California with a blood clot in the brain (CVST) five days after receiving Pfizer vaccine, dose unknown.
  •   A 31-year-old female from Pennsylvania with heart inflammation (myocarditis) two days after receiving Moderna's booster.
  •   A 58-year-old female from California with blood clots in legs (DVT) after receiving Johnson & Johnson booster.

New York COVID-19 Quarantine Rules [are] Unconstitutional And Illegal:  Judge.  This month, a New York Supreme Court judge issued a confidential ruling declaring regulations requiring the quarantine of individuals who have been exposed to or infected with highly contagious communicable diseases to be illegal and void.  Rule 2.13, also known as the isolation and quarantine procedures, was implemented in February.  Under the rule, "whenever appropriate to control the spread of a highly contagious communicable disease, the State Commissioner of Health may issue and/or may direct the local health authority to issue isolation and/or quarantine orders, consistent with due process of law, to all such persons as the State Commissioner of Health shall determine appropriate."  As long as it is "appropriate" in the opinion of the public health authority issuing the order, isolations may occur at home, in residential or temporary housing, or in any other setting.

Court Blocks Biden Admin From Punishing Unvaccinated Air Force Members.  A federal district court in Ohio has temporarily blocked the Biden administration from enforcing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate on thousands of U.S. Air Force service members who remain unvaccinated after having opposed the shot on religious grounds but have had their religious exemption applications denied.  U.S. District Court Judge Matthew McFarland, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump in late 2019, issued a temporary restraining order filed on Thursday preventing the Biden administration from taking any action for at least 14 days against any Air Force member who opted not to take the COVID-19 vaccine.  The judge's ruling also grants the case "class status," which means the temporary restraining order will grant relief to all members of the Air Force who submitted a religious accommodation request from the COVID-19 vaccine mandate from Sept. 1, 2021, to the present, and were confirmed via the Air Force Chaplains as having a sincerely held religious belief, but had their requests denied or not yet acted upon.  Plaintiffs had contended that such a class would include over 12,000 airmen.

Study: 99% Of COVID-19 Data Websites Secretly Track Users.  The study analyzed three types of websites: official governmental websites of "G20" countries around the world; websites of international organizations such as the United Nations and popular websites used for COVID-19 tracking and information.  It measured these sites' use of "cookies" — personal data related to your browsing history that websites can retrieve at a later time.  "Web cookies have been exploited to collect information about users' online activities and interests," notes the paper.  "Our results show that, unfortunately, tracking is a serious concern, as in some countries up to 90% of these websites create cookies of third-party trackers without any consent from users," explains a summary of the findings.

Woo-woo-woo, Ding-ding, Woo-woo-woo!
Los Angeles County Enters CDC's "High" Covid Alert — Mask Mandate to Kick in On July 29.  Los Angeles County is planning to reinstate its indoor mask mandate on July 29.  If Los Angeles County remains in the CDC's "High" level Covid alert for two weeks in a row, it will reinstate its indoor mask mandate.  LA County public health director Barbara Ferrer on Thursday said, "Lots of folks are asking why we're bothering and asking why don't we just let things run their course like other places may have done."

The Covid "emergency" must be maintained until all the late-arriving mail-in ballots are "found" in mid-November.
Biden Administration Planning to Extend Covid Public Health Emergency.  After two years of covid lockdowns, restrictions, and progressive virtue signaling with promises of being able to contain an uncontainable virus, the country is seeing a surge in covid cases.  Laughably, officials say they "know how to manage it." [...] As I predicted, the world will experience wave after wave of covid until we have built up enough immunity so future variants will join the very long list of common cold viruses.  In fact, in my personal experience, I know many people who are now recovering from covid infections who did not believe me when I said that we would all, eventually, get the disease.  I have heard the phrase, "Leslie, you were right," quite a bit in the last three weeks.  But the reality is not stopping the Biden administration from extending the covid emergency.

Biden is abusing his 'emergency powers' to grow the welfare state.  After more than two years, the rollout of effective vaccines for all who want them, and much anguish, the public has moved on from COVID-19.  Although the virus tragically continues to take lives, some degree of COVID-19 prevalence is likely our new normal, hence why just 1% of voters now list COVID-19 as their priority issue.  It no longer even ranks in the top 10.  But the Biden administration is simply unwilling to let go of the emergency — and its "emergency" powers.  The president is reportedly planning on extending the pandemic emergency declaration, originally implemented in January 2020 under former President Donald Trump, yet again after it was set to expire on July 15.  Why extend the declaration even though the "emergency" is clearly long over? [...] The real reason this White House won't give up its "temporary" emergency powers is much more sinister — and partisan.  It's simple:  The forever-emergency status quo is allowing them to keep millions of ineligible people on welfare programs such as Medicaid and food stamps.

Why is USG rewriting the history of the mRNA vaccines?  Nature Biotechnology published a paper in July, 2022 called "The COVID-19 vaccine patent race."  In this paper, Nature Biotechnology asserts that the first reduction to practice of mRNA vaccination occurred in 2000.  This is patently false.  It is hard to believe that this could be an accidental oversight by this scientific journal.  The first in-vivo (animal) experiments reducing this mRNA vaccination to practice occurred in 1989.  The first experiment was mRNA Vaccination of Mice to Produce the gp120 Protein of HIV Virus with subsequent production of gp120 antibody in the mRNA vaccinated mice, and the second experiment was mRNA Vaccination of Human Stem Cell-Bearing SCID Mice with HIV nef mRNA Followed by HIV Challenge.  Both experiments were presented to the United States Patent Office and these claims were approved in nine issued patents, all with a priority date of March 21, 1989.  That means that these experiments were conducted in 1989-90.

20 bizarre causes of death that the media is blaming on sudden adult death syndrome.  It's become a common theme throughout the world since 2021 (not 2020):  There is a spike in excess deaths and sudden unexplained deaths, including among younger people.  It sounds kind of important, right?  Shouldn't we seek to investigate all the variables that have changed since 2021?  The fact that the human race is suddenly dying off early is no longer a secret.  We need not pore through life insurance, medical billing, excess death, or disability data.  The media is not even hiding the news of young people suddenly dropping from heart attacks, strokes, and blood clots.  After all, that is why they invented the moniker of "sudden adult death syndrome."  But what is shocking is how they have conjured up every speculative reason under the sun as the culprit — often bordering on parody and insanity — rather than looking at a certain obvious starting point.

Victims of the Vaccine.  Wednesday's [7/13/2022] Steyn Show was a special edition devoted to a topic Mark has focused on particularly in the last six months — the devastating damage done around the world to millions of hitherto healthy persons by the Covid "vaccines".  Before an audience of those injured and bereaved by Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca, Steyn covered various aspects of a great injustice to entirely blameless citizens.  His guests included the very first widows of the vaccine he had on his show some months back, Vikki Spit and Charlotte Wright, and the only MP interested in doing anything about the issue, Sir Christopher Chope.  [Video clip]

WHO Director-General Wants You to Put the Slave Mask Back On.  One of the most vexing parts of the Covid-19 pandemic may soon make a comeback, as the World Health Organization is calling on nations to reinstitute compulsory mask policies.  On Tuesday, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in public remarks the return of masks is needed due to a purported increase in Covid cases.

Hochul's Messianic Delusions.  In a wildly under-reported public sermon last year, Hochul zealously denounced the unvaccinated, accusing them of defying God's will.  The unvaccinated people she vilified are her own constituents.  They have good reasons, religious or medical or otherwise, for avoiding the various vaccines, all of which have been shown to have serious side effects.  The fact they reject the vaccines should not be her concern, but that would not be in keeping with leftist public health dogma, so their heresy must be punished.  America is supposed to be about freedom of choice, but that's not the way fanatics like Hochul see things.  This left-wing theocrat says she is entitled to be followed by "apostles" to spread the false gospel of public health charlatans, monomaniacal epidemiologists, corrupt statistical modelers, and their self-righteous enablers in the government and the media.  "We are not through this pandemic.  I wished we were," Hochul said September 26, 2021, at the Christian Cultural Center in New York City.

Covid and Climate Change:  Wake up, before it's too late.  [Scroll down]  All the years I spent arguing over technical details trying to persuade our "useful idiot" politicians to see sense were a total waste of effort.  The climate change scam finally makes sense when you accept it has nothing to do with the climate and everything to do with a supra-governmental Malthusian agenda of de-industrialisation and de-population, a long-term plan of attack relative to the quick-fire Covid "plandemic" attack.  Reiner Fuellmich and his colleagues have done a brilliant job of joining all the dots to expose this reality.

This young lady nailed it!  [Video clip]

New Study:  Unvaccinated Wrongly Maligned.  A large-scale international study of those unvaccinated against COVID-19 finds a pattern of discrimination — and a relatively low hospitalization rate.  While the study's findings are limited by the nature of the selection process, in which unvaccinated people opted in to participate, the new study suggests that those who declined the vaccine may not be the burden to the health care system many have claimed them to be.  The study is now available as a preprint (which means it hasn't yet been peer-reviewed).  It was uploaded to ResearchGate earlier this month.  The findings hold significant importance to policymakers.  According to Our World in Data, 60 percent of the world is fully vaccinated against COVID-19.  The 40 percent who aren't vaccinated against the virus have been frequently blamed for the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, even as vaccination rates reached up to 90 percent in many jurisdictions.

Doctors and patients speak out about what is happening inside hospitals.  Last week we spoke with Doctors Pierre Kory and Paul Marik about the War on Doctors and the lawsuit Dr. Marik is filing against the FDA.  This week we welcome the incomparable Dr. Mary Bowden who is also a party to this lawsuit.  We will learn that when forced by Houston Methodist Hospital to choose between doing what is best for her patients vs. following hospital protocols, Dr. Bowden chose her patients.  As a result Houston Methodist forced her resignation.  Now Dr. Bowden is suing the hospital for hiding data on patient outcomes during COVID-19.

U.S. Public Health Agencies Aren't 'Following the Science,' Officials Say.  The calls and text messages are relentless.  On the other end are doctors and scientists at the top levels of the NIH, FDA and CDC.  They are variously frustrated, exasperated and alarmed about the direction of the agencies to which they have devoted their careers.  "It's like a horror movie I'm being forced to watch and I can't close my eyes," one senior FDA official lamented.  "People are getting bad advice and we can't say anything."  That particular FDA doctor was referring to two recent developments inside the agency.  First, how, with no solid clinical data, the agency authorized Covid vaccines for infants and toddlers, including those who already had Covid.  And second, the fact that just months before, the FDA bypassed their external experts to authorize booster shots for young children.  That doctor is hardly alone.

Fauci Makes Surprising Concession Regarding COVID-19 Vaccines.  White House COVID-19 adviser Anthony Fauci conceded Wednesday morning that COVID-19 vaccines don't protect "overly well" against the virus.  Speaking during a Fox News interview, Fauci told host Neil Cavuto that "one of the things that's clear from the data [is] that ... vaccines — because of the high degree of transmissibility of this virus — don't protect overly well, as it were, against infection."  But Fauci said later that the vaccines "protect quite well against severe disease leading to hospitalization and death" before he made note of his recent COVID-19 diagnosis.  "At my age, being vaccinated and boosted, even though it didn't protect me against infection, I feel confident that it made a major role in protecting me from progressing to severe disease," said Fauci, who is 81 and has worked in various capacities in the federal government since the late 1960s.  He's also headed the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since the Reagan administration.

Calgary firefighters launch $38 million lawsuit against city and fire department over COVID jab mandates.  A group of 19 firefighters forced off the job for choosing not to get the experimental COVID vaccines are suing the city and the Calgary Fire Department (CFD) for a combined $38 million in damages, saying the city's injection mandate "violated" their basic "human rights."  "There's something tyrannical about these mandates.  We can't identity everybody behind it, but what we can do is hold people accountable, like the fire chief, politicians, city managers.  Those people are responsible for their actions," Stephen Dabbagh, the leader of the lawsuit, told LifeSiteNews.

WHO Has A History With Vaccines Aimed At Reducing Fertility.  "Infertility:  A Diabolical Agenda," is the fourth vaccine-related documentary by Dr. Andrew Wakefield.  It tells the story of an intentional infertility vaccine program conducted on African women, without their knowledge or consent.

The global depopulation agenda is an absolute reality, not a conspiracy theory.  In the interview below, Dr. Andrew Wakefield and Mary Holland, president and general counsel for Children's Health Defense, discuss their new documentary film, "Infertility:  A Diabolical Agenda," which we published yesterday.  If you missed it, you can watch it here.  [Video clip]  "Infertility:  A Diabolical Agenda" is Wakefield's fourth film.  The first was "Who Killed Alex Spourdalakis?" followed by "Vaxxed" and "1986: The Act."  This latest film details the World Health Organization's intentions to produce an anti-fertility vaccine in response to perceived overpopulation, and how such vaccines have been used without people's knowledge or consent since the mid-'90s.  "It's a very important story, and it's a story that I'd been aware of for some years," Wakefield says.  "I think a lot of people heard about this intentional infertility vaccine program being conducted, primarily in women in developing countries such as Africa.  But it had gone into abeyance so I hadn't paid due attention."

Sen. Braun on 'Fox & Friends': Americans would be shocked if they knew where COVID funds went.  Sen. Mike Braun, R-Ind., joined "Fox & Friends" to react to $15 million in COVID recovery funds being spent on "anti-racism" and other woke education programs.  Braun said Americans would be "shocked" if they knew where the money has been going and how much of it is unspent.

The Editor says...
I'm not an economist, but I don't see why unspent money is a problem.  Just find out where the unspent money is, and rescind the payments.

Covid worked so well before... let's try it again!
Democrats Prepare a Mid-Term October Surprise to Influence the Election.  Democrats are facing their worst political environment in over a decade heading into November's mid-term elections.  Republicans lead the generic ballot and hold a solid structural advantage in competing for the House of Representatives. [...] In response, Democrats have desperately tried to change the narrative by focusing on abortion and guns, but that's gone over like a lead balloon because ultimately, those aren't issues that affect the vast majority of Americans in their everyday lives.  The economy and inflation are still at the top of any list of concerns.  In short, the fundamentals are just awful for the Democrats.  That means they need to do something to influence the election that goes beyond actually enacting good policy, and if you listen closely, you'll discern exactly what they are preparing.

DA Declines to File Battery Charge Against Teacher Who Physically Forced [a] 9-Year-Old to [wear a] Mask.  Many RedState readers will recall our exclusive series covering the bullying and harassment Kamdin Hernandez, a 4th grader in Simi Valley, California was subjected to by teachers and school administrators because he was unable to wear a face mask fully over-the-nose throughout the school day.  Due to Kamdin's attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), wearing a face mask so distracted him that he was unable to concentrate on his school work, yet teachers and administrators berated him in front of classmates, physically blocked him from entering the door into the school, locked him out of his classroom, physically pulled the mask up over his nose against his wishes, and more.

Laboratory One and 'Former Persons'.  [Scroll down]  It was not Laboratory One that released COVID-19 on an unsuspecting world but the Biolabs of Wuhan.  One does not have to look far to find a detailed listing of all the undeclared, but suspected bioweapons labs in China.  Not coincidentally, there is another Chinese PLA lab also located in Wuhan.  Until the release of COVID, various Chinese military names and ranks were prominently displayed on the roster at the Wuhan Virology lab.  It is a fact, not in dispute, that all the original Covid-19 doctors and their research have joined the disappeared, never to be heard from again.  This is what the guilty do to those who come too close to the truth.  It now appears to be the West's policy to not confront China on the origins of COVID.  As a matter of policy, what would our nation, and other Western nations do if it could be proven that a weaponized (Change of Function) COVID was either deliberately or accidentally released upon the world?  There is ample evidence that China was either buying up or sharply reducing exports of everything you would need to fight and protect against this killer virus.  China has stubbornly fought back against any assertion that China is in any way responsible for COVID-19 well before the pandemic was well known.

In hospitals, they are still obsessed with masks.  My primary role of late has been to assist my elderly mother through any number of medical appointments.  In shuffling from one to the next, we sometimes have to remind each other to bring a mask.  We're aware that the masks offer no protection against COVID, but for the sake of others, we've complied with the mandates that are still enforced upon entrance to medical facilities.  The pretense strikes me, however, as masks are not magically effective in the lobby of a medical facility while they are ineffective everywhere else.  I'm sympathetic toward receptionists, and others in service roles, whose livelihood depends on their willingness to maintain the pretense of science-backed policy.  But the facade came crashing down for me when I'd taken my mother to have a CT scan done.

The failure of the mRNA shots is on display for all with open eyes.  "Based on the RCTs with the longest possible follow-up, mRNA vaccines had no effect on overall mortality despite protecting against fatal COVID-19."  This bizarre, yet revealing conclusion of a recent preprint Danish study in the prestigious Lancet should be international news, yet only a few Americans are aware of it.  A first-of-its-kind long-term follow-up of over 74,000 adult participants in the Moderna and Pfizer trials found absolutely no all-cause mortality benefit from the two mRNA shots, despite the pandemic of a lifetime.  As of Jan. 2022, there were a total of 31 all-cause deaths among those in either the Pfizer or Moderna trial groups and 30 in the placebo groups.  A study of Curevac, a third mRNA vaccine created by a German biopharmaceutical company, recorded eight deaths in the trial group and six in the placebo.  Now, consider the fact that people are being denied treatment, kidney transplants, entry into mental health facilities, and the ability to earn a livelihood for not getting the shots.

Dr. Pierre Kory: Super Interview.  [Scroll down]  Lincoln Financial, the fifth largest life insurance company in the country, just a week ago, announced that in the last quarter of 2021 there was a 163% increase in life insurance claims over historical baselines.  [Struggles for words.]  Those are the acute things, those are the drop-deads, the sudden cardiac arrests, the heart attacks and strokes.  The excess mortaly of the cancers we are seeing, those cancers are going to continue to rage throughout the vaccinated population.  That's going to be going on for some time, and you're gonna see it in young people.  And that's why the silence of the hospitals is so terrifying. ... To know that the deans sitting atop these major medical centers with neurologists and cardiologists, obstetricians and gynecologists, have been seeing strokes, infertility, heart attacks, in people with no comorbidities and very young ages.  There's no way that the leaders of these health care institutions didn't know.  Not one spoke up. [...] They're starting to talk about excess mortality in the UK, but here?  There are people still walking around angry at the unvaccinated, still thinking that they're the cause of all of the problems, and still thinking that the vaccines are safe and effective.  It's what they've been told from every single point, every single media and journal and agency and health officials.

Tennis superstar Novak Djokovic ready to sit out US Open rather than take COVID jab.  Tennis superstar Novak Djokovic shared Sunday that he steadfastly refuses to get the COVID vaccine and is prepared to sit out the upcoming U.S. Open due to his vax status.  "I'm not vaccinated and I'm not planning to get vaccinated, so the only good news I can have is [the U.S.] removing the mandated vaccine card ... to enter [the] United States, or [an] exemption," Djokovic told a reporter after his victory in the Wimbledon men's singles final over Nick Kyrgios for his fourth straight title.

Biden team secures 3.2 million doses of Novavax COVID-19 vaccine ahead of FDA action.  The Biden administration said Monday [7/11/2022] it secured 3.2 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine from Novavax ahead of authorization from the Food and Drug Administration.  The Department of Health and Human Services said the vaccine will provide another option for Americans who've remained on the sidelines during the vaccine push.

Nearly 1 in 4 police officers in San Diego QUIT due to covid vaccine mandates.  Last November, we reported that upwards of 65 percent of San Diego's police force was slated to quit over Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccine" mandates.  It turns out that 22 percent of them actually did.  Reports indicate that nearly one in four police officers on the force in San Diego left their posts in the largest exodus since 2009. Their reason?  They did not want to be forcibly jabbed with experimental "medicine" that could kill them, and that most certainly would have altered their natural DNA.  Los Angeles County would have lost similar numbers, by the way, had Sheriff Alex Villanueva not decided to refuse support for the unconstitutional jab mandates.  San Diego was not so fortunate, which resulted in yet another mass exodus from the force.  Los Angeles city, conversely, saw more than 2,200 employees quit over the injection mandates that were enforced in that department.  In San Diego, more than 230 police officers — this reportedly does not include administrative staff — have left their posts so far in 2022.

Pilots speak out about vaccine-induced injuries and deaths.  Throughout the covid-19 scandal, commercial airline pilots were disrespected, grounded, and forced to comply with destructive medical experiments.  The aviation industry has implemented a culture of intimidation and abuse, threatening the basic body autonomy rights and personal beliefs of individual pilots.  These acts of subjugation and coercion have driven pilots into early retirement, and forced others to succumb to needless, harmful bioweapon experiments.  Today, commercial airline pilots are speaking up more than ever about vaccine injuries and the "hostile" environment that unvaccinated and vaccine-injured pilots must endure.  Pilots must be in tip-top physical shape.  However, after covid-19 vaccination, pilot health plummeted overall.  Commercial airline pilots commonly report chest pains and are diagnosed with facial paralysis, myocarditis and pericarditis.  Others are suffering from strokes, blindness, and heart attacks.  When they speak out about their vaccine injuries, they are met with rebuke, slander, and censorship.  This culture of intimidation within the aviation industry has kept many pilots from coming forward about their symptoms.  This incites even more danger.

Resistance Building against Governors' COVID Powers.  Governors who have used COVID-19 as an excuse to enlarge their executive powers through extended and expansive emergency orders may have encountered the first serious state-level roadblock by an upstate New York Supreme Court judge, who ruled against the New York governor's abuse of public health law in a little known but critically important lawsuit.  The decision is likely to have spillover effects in other states due to the constitutional issue of separation of powers.  It may also alert citizens to the failure of their state legislatures to rein in out-of-control governors.  The lawsuit challenged "Isolation and Quarantine Procedures" Rule 2.13 (10 NYCRR 2.13), which allowed New York governor Kathy Hochul to use the state Department of Health to issue regulations allowing health officials to involuntarily quarantine and detain people diagnosed or suspected of being exposed to a communicable disease for indefinite periods of time, depriving them of freedom, due process, and property rights, all while avoiding legislative oversight.

Why Exactly Do Babies and Toddlers Need COVID Jabs?  The FDA's authorization of the experimental COVID injections in babies and toddlers is starting to see serious pushback from health freedom organizations and the media, amid early safety signals that show the jabs are risky and inappropriate for young children.  In mid-June, the FDA authorized Pfizer's COVID-19 shots for youngsters ages six months to five years, as well as Moderna's shots for youngsters ages six months to six years.  A recent op-ed in the Wall Street Journal titled "Why the Rush For Toddler Vaccines?" points out that there have been virtually no deaths in kids under five from COVID.  Only 209 children between six months and four years old have died from the virus, the Journal's Allysia Finley reports.  Moreover, the clinical trials did not prove the injections are safe and effective for babies and toddlers.  Quite the contrary.

Tucker Carlson Outlines How the COVID-19 Pandemic Reset Everything and asks, Was it Done on Purpose?  During his opening monologue Friday evening [7/8/2022], Fox News host Tucker Carlson went into great detail outlining the current evidence of how the SARS-CoV-2 virus originated.  As a direct consequence of the COVID-19's global impact, a geopolitical reset has taken place.  Carlson asks the questions of whether this reset was done purposefully, and why is there no one looking at how the virus originated?  [Video clip]

No kidding.
New Survey Reveals Significant Doubts About Masks And Vaccines.  Asked to look back at the pandemic and assess public health recommendations aimed at limiting Covid-19 spread, only about half of Americans now think masks and vaccines have been very effective or extremely effective.  That's the finding of a new Pew Research survey of more than 10,000 adults, which provides insights into Americans' thinking about many aspects of the pandemic.  Only 48% think "wearing masks around other people indoors" has been extremely or very effective; 23% give masks a lukewarm "somewhat effective" grade.  Defying two years of public health preaching, 28% say they're either "not too" or "not at all effective."  We wonder... what percent of Americans know that the holes in surgical masks are up to 1,000 times larger than Covid-19 particles?

The Shocking Truth About the Global Depopulation Agenda.  As explained by [Dr. Andrew] Wakefield, it was no secret that the WHO had been working on an anti-fertility vaccine since the 1970s.  Papers were published, and the WHO itself even admitted it.  The real issue here is that of informed consent.  The WHO has been caught more than once deliberately deceiving women into thinking they were vaccinated against tetanus, when in fact they were being sterilized.  This is an ethical and moral low that is hard to beat.

No pay for Guard, Reserve troops who refuse COVID-19 vaccine, Army says.  Even as the Army struggles to fill its ranks during the most severe military recruiting downturn in years, thousands of troops in the Army National Guard and Army Reserve who refuse the COVID-19 vaccine are being told this week they won't receive pay or retirement credit for future federally funded drills.  Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin made the COVID-19 vaccination mandatory for all service members in August 2021 and told the secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force to issue guidance and timelines.  The mandate included both active-duty troops and part-time reservists.  Army Reserve and National Guard soldiers who haven't been granted an approved or pending exemption are subject to several adverse actions, including an official reprimand.  Troops who continue to refuse the order could be kicked out, Army officials said.

US allows pharmacists to prescribe Pfizer's COVID-19 pill.  Pharmacists can prescribe the leading COVID-19 pill directly to patients under a new U.S. policy announced Wednesday that's intended to expand use of Pfizer's drug Paxlovid.  The Food and Drug Administration said pharmacists can begin screening patients to see if they are eligible for Paxlovid and then prescribe the medication, which has been shown to curb the worst effects of COVID-19.  Previously only physicians could prescribe the antiviral drug.

Fauci Just Canceled $1.8 Million In Grisly Beagle Experiments After Fake Fact-Checkers Lied [for him].  Plans for more taxpayer-funded experiments on dogs commissioned by Anthony Fauci's division of the NIH have recently been canceled, which is pretty damning for the fact-checkers who attempted to cover for Fauci by downplaying similar experiments brought into the spotlight last summer.  In addition to Snopes, FactCheck.org, and PolitiFact all parroting the same statement from Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — "Animals used in federally-funded research are protected by laws, regulations, and policies to ensure the smallest possible number of subjects and the greatest commitment to their welfare" — the fact-checkers also tried to distance Fauci from the experiments.  While he is the director of the NIAID, they said, he didn't personally fund these experiments, which reportedly included feeding experimental drugs to puppies, injecting dogs with cocaine, and cutting out their vocal cords so they couldn't bark during the abuse.

US Army slashes pay for 60,000 soldiers who refuse to get jabbed as Biden cracks down on unvaccinated.  More than 60,000 unvaccinated Army National Guard and Army Reserve soldiers will be barred from performing their military duties and have their pay and benefits cut because they refuse to get their shots, officials announced on Friday [7/8/2022].  'Soldiers who refuse the vaccination order without an approved or pending exemption request are subject to adverse administrative actions, including flags, bars to service, and official reprimands,' according to a statement from the Army.  There are about 40,000 National Guard soldiers and 22,000 Reserve soldiers how have not been vaccinated.

The Mass Psychosis of Liberals.  Liberals have mastered the art of wanting to believe in a false reality, constructing a Bizarro Universe, while at the same time, excusing themselves for committing the very same transgressions against society and nature that they accuse others of doing. [... For example,] The COVID Vaccines Work:  This will go down in history as the ultimate example of the cliché "Moving the goalposts."  Let's give some credit to the pharmaceutical companies for coming up with something in such short order.  But whatever they were, they weren't vaccines.  Vaccines prevent a person from contracting the disease in question.  There are a lot of really good ones, vaccines that work well and have minimal negative side effects.  Polio, TB, and many other vaccines have transformed our daily existence on earth and immeasurably improved the quality of life.  Unfortunately, the COVID vaccines are not in that category.  Leaving aside why a "vaccine" was even necessary to begin with for a disease that has a 95%+ recovery rate for people under 70, it became painfully obvious very quickly that the so-called COVID vaccines were close to worthless.  Very soon, the second dose became mandatory in order to be considered "fully vaccinated." Oops, not quite.  Within months after the second shot, you needed Booster One.  Then you needed Booster Two.  Plus, the goalposts were now on the move, with the CDC, Dr. Fauci and virtually all high-profile Democrats suddenly saying that the four shots would not prevent the disease.  "We never said it would," they lied.  Now, according to them, the four shots are intended to merely lower the severity and reduce the probability of needing hospitalization.  Very convenient, since each succeeding COVID variant is far milder than the one before it, and hospitalizations are naturally less prevalent.

Follow the COVID Money.  If the COVID-19 vaccines have been a disappointment from a public health standpoint in stopping the continuing spread of new variants of the disease, why is Big Pharma as well as its government allies in the FDA, CDC, and NIH still pushing them? [...] Follow the COVID money to determine why we continue to spend a fortune on something that seems to have only a relatively limited benefit.  But our elected officials are embarrassingly quiet on answering the basic question of who exactly is benefiting from the constant rounds of shots being foisted on or recommended to the American public?  Maybe the silence comes from the fact that the pharmaceutical industry spends more on lobbying than any other industry group.  In 2020 big pharma spent over $300 million lobbying officeholders and government officials.  It clearly pays off.  The research to develop the COVID-19 vaccines was nearly all funded by taxpayers.  The distribution of the vaccines, once developed, was further funded nearly entirely by taxpayers.  The record-keeping and reporting on the vaccines is also at the expense of taxpayers, and the new repurposed Pfizer drug Paxlovid, used to treat COVID, has been paid for by taxpayers.  If the vaccinations are proving to be ineffective in stopping the march of the disease, are they really worth what the federal government is paying the pharmaceutical industry to manufacture, distribute, and administer them?  Is the public being played for suckers by a cabal of industry giants and their friends in the medical bureaucracies?

How did Pfizer manage to rebrand itself as the savior of humanity?  One of the most significant cultural transformations of the last two years has been the newfound glorification of the pharmaceutical industry.  An industry plagued by decades of fraud, corruption, and criminality managed to quickly rebrand itself as the savior of humanity during the covid-19 crisis.  But nothing inherently changed.  Big Pharma still values shareholders' profits more than people's lives.  The regulatory agencies still operate as revolving doors to the pharmaceutical giants they are said to regulate.  Big Pharma still dominates lobbying efforts in Washington DC and spends billions each year advertising pharmaceutical products.

Twitter re-instates account of COVID critic Alex Berenson.  lex Berenson, the writer and outspoken critic of much of the world's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, had his Twitter account reinstated Wednesday after nearly a year of being barred from the platform.  Berenson announced his return to Twitter on the platform, in a post the directed readers to a Substack post in which he explains his reinstatement.  "The parties have come to a mutually acceptable resolution.  I have been reinstated," Berenson wrote on the Substack post.  "Twitter has acknowledged that my tweets should have not led to my suspension at that time."  The tweet that resulted in Berenson's suspension, from late August of 2021, criticized COVID vaccine mandates with a harsh assessment of how the vaccine itself works.

74.2 million people in the USA have not had a single dose of a Covid-19 Vaccine.  President Joe Biden has lied to the American people and is still lying to the American people.  In July 2021, Biden falsely stated that "You're not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations," and "If you're vaccinated, you're not going to be hospitalized, you're not going to be in the ICU unit, and you're not going to die."  Then in December 2021, Biden falsely claimed "This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated.  The unvaccinated.  Not the vaccinated, the unvaccinated.  That's the problem.  Everybody talks about freedom and not to have a shot or have a test.  Well guess what?  How about patriotism?  How about making sure that you're vaccinated, so you do not spread the disease to anyone else."  There is plenty of evidence out there that proves the above statements made by President Biden are outright lies, but the most hilarious evidence of all must be the recent outbreak that occurred due to journalists and Government leaders attending the 'Gridiron Dinner at the beginning of April 2022.  An annual event in Washington DC.  All guests at the event were required to show proof of vaccination.  A week later at least 72 of the 630 fully vaccinated/boosted guests tested positive for Covid-19.

Letter to the U.K. Gov from 76 Doctors.  We are writing to you urgently concerning the announcement that the FDA has granted an Emergency Use Authorization for both Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines in preschool children.  We would urge you to consider very carefully the move to vaccinate ever younger children against SARS-CoV-2, despite the gradual but significant reducing virulence of successive variants, the increasing evidence of rapidly waning vaccine efficacy, the increasing concerns over long-term vaccine harms, and the knowledge that the vast majority of this young age group have already been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 repeatedly and have demonstrably effective immunity.  Thus, the balance of benefit and risk which supported the rollout of mRNA vaccines to the elderly and vulnerable in 2021 is totally inappropriate for small children in 2022.  We also strongly challenge the addition of COVID-19 vaccination into the routine child immunization program despite no demonstrated clinical need, known and unknown risks (see below) and the fact that these vaccines still have only conditional marketing authorization.

Two and 3-year-old kids with seizures is "the new normal".  Doctors are mystified by a rash of seizures, rashes, etc. happening to 2 and 3-year-old kids.  The only thing these kids have in common is that they were given the COVID vaccine just days earlier (two to five days earlier).  The doctors cannot figure out what is causing the seizures (since it couldn't be the vaccine since those are safe and effective).  The medical staff is not permitted to talk about the cases to the press or on social media or they will be fired.  One nurse posted something to the effect of "how is this legal????"  I had to paraphrase to protect the poster.  This is why you are hearing these reports from me.  They can't fire me.  There is nothing on the mainstream media about this since the nurses and doctors aren't allowed to talk about it.  This will all come out some day, but for now, everyone is keeping quiet about it and the doctors are instructed to convince the parents that it isn't vaccine related and that they are the only ones having the problem.

The CDC says "severe reactions" to the COVID vaccines are rare.  That's not what we found.  The CDC has always maintained that severe reactions to the COVID vaccines are rare.  Since I officially became a misinformation spreader over a year ago, I've never believed that statement because I couldn't find any reliable data that confirmed it.  On Jun[e] 20, 2022, VSRF engaged the services of a professional polling company (Pollfish) to survey 500 people who were selected entirely at random.  The implications of what we found in that poll were shocking:  At least 2M Americans over 18 were injured by the COVID vaccine such that they are unable to hold a job.  The US government has never done any research to determine the extent of the injuries caused by the COVID vaccines.  Now we know why.  The results of our poll were consistent with an earlier vaccine injury survey by the Israeli government and with the VAERS data which has been "lit up" since January 2021 telling us "the COVID vaccines are the most unsafe vaccines in human history."  Now we have independent confirmation that the safety signals in VAERS were accurate, just like we've always said.  The numbers in this poll are absolutely shocking and there is no way to spin this as a positive.

Cases of Brain Damage in Children Skyrocket Following COVID-19 Vaccines.  Weakened hearts, blood clots, and now you can add neurological brain damage to the list of side effects being reported in children following COVID-19 vaccinations.  In at least one case, one poor child developed all three conditions.  In a case study published earlier this month (May, 2022) in the Journal of Neuroimmunology, a 15-year-old girl developed encephalopathy, myocarditis, and thrombocytopenia simultaneously following the second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

This is completely off-topic, I'm sure.
Mosquito Borne Viruses On The Rise As Bill Gates Releases Millions Of Genetically Modified Mosquitoes.  Various states across the country have reported an increase in mosquito-borne viruses, some of the viruses are reportedly rare and have little history of being in the United States.  In Georgia, mosquitoes tested positive for a rare disease that has the potential to be deadly. [...] In the Midwest, cases of the Jamestown Canyon Virus, carried by mosquitoes, are on the rise.

Fauci Suffers Covid Symptom Rebound After Course of Pfizer's Paxlovid.  Anthony Fauci, the chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, suffered a rebound of Covid-19 symptoms after taking Pfizer Inc.'s antiviral Paxlovid.  Despite being fully vaccinated and twice-boosted, Fauci contracted Covid earlier this month and was prescribed Paxlovid due to his age — 81 — which puts him at high risk of developing complications.  "After I finished the five days of Paxlovid, I reverted to negative on an antigen test for three days in a row," Fauci said Tuesday during an event at Foreign Policy's Global Health Forum.  "And then on the fourth day, just to be absolutely certain, I tested myself again.  I reverted back to positive."

The Inconvenient Truth About COVID-19 Relief Scandals.  Raise your hand if you're surprised that the trillions of dollars spent on COVID-19 relief gave way to billions of dollars in government waste, fraud and abuses.  I'm not, but based on recent reporting, you might think this type of carelessness with taxpayers' money has never before happened.  Sadly, such waste and fraud are normal byproducts of most government programs.  Too much focus on waste and fraud misses a more important problem:  Lots of the COVID-19 spending that doesn't qualify as wasteful or fraudulent was nonetheless misspent.  When the pandemic hit the United States in March 2020, people all over the country panicked.  Everyone seemed to agree that the right thing to do was pump the nation full of as much money as possible, as fast as possible.  As a result, nearly everyone — married, unmarried, employed, unemployed, through businesses small and large — got cash through the $2 trillion CARES Act.  Some people did raise the potential for fraud.  We were told that there was no time to put in place measures sufficient to prevent it.  However, the CARES Act did create an oversight mechanism called the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee.

Pediatrician Pushing COVID Vax for Kids Under 5 Booted From Florida Board.  A pediatrician who pushed parents to get children under five vaccinated against COVID-19 has been "unceremoniously removed" from the Florida Healthy Kids Board, according to a report from Business Insider.  "On the same day that we began administering COVID-19 vaccine to infants and children under 5, I was removed from the Florida Healthy Kids Board for advocating for equitable access for the underserved and for pediatricians," Dr. Lisa Gwynn, who works within the University of Miami Health System, tweeted earlier this week.  "Disappointing."  Florida is the only state in the union that has not ordered child doses of the COVID vaccine from the government in bulk.  Instead, the Florida Department of Health says it will leave the decision to order the vaccines to individual doctors.

Study Finds Young Moderna Jab Recipients Have a Jaw-Dropping 44X Higher Risk of Developing Myocarditis Than the Unvaccinated.  A peer-reviewed study from researchers in France has concluded that both the experimental Pfizer and Moderna vaccines significantly increase the risk of myocarditis compared to the unvaccinated.  While both mRNA therapies were found to be linked to the life-threatening heart condition, the Moderna jabs results were particularly shocking, especially among young adults, as researchers found the risk for myocarditis diagnosis following the Moderna jab was 44 times higher risk for individuals aged 18 to 24 years old.

Remember Biden's 'summer of freedom' and victory over COVID? No wonder his credibility's shot.  Last July 4, President Joe Biden proclaimed victory over COVID: "Thanks to our heroic vaccine effort, we've gained the upper hand against this virus.  We can live our lives.  We are closer than ever to declaring our independence from a deadly virus."  A few weeks later, Biden promised that people who got vaccinated would not get COVID.  Since last July 4, COVID has killed more than 400,000 Americans.  More than 55 million have been diagnosed with the virus, and there have probably been tens of millions of unconfirmed or unreported cases.  Biden has been more successful decimating freedom than ending the pandemic.  The wreckage of his COVID promises explains much of the collapse of Biden's credibility and approval ratings.

The Cure Was Vastly Worse than the Disease.  The most inexplicable element to this catastrophic global panic is that, anecdotally, I found Covid really, really weird.  Why did I lose my sense of smell so profoundly when this has never happened in a cold or flu before?  It is gone, seemingly for good.  What possible "gain-of-function" experiment caused this symptom?  "Experts" will claim that I was lucky just to lose this.  But I wasn't so lucky when I took my first round of the vaccine and suffered from an endlessly racing heart for two weeks straight — a symptom from which I'm still not sure I've completely recovered.  Finally, there is the brutal stigma associated with the illness itself.  What does one really even say after coming down with this bizarre and altogether benign ailment?  To all the radically woke people at my workplace, some of whom won't even talk to me anymore because I refuse to wear a mask in a mask-optional environment:  saying that it was basically a strange joke of a disease will only raise their ire.

The Age of Deference to Experts Is Over.  From the first weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic, media and governments have understandably sought out expert opinion to guide them.  How did that go?  Most of us had never heard from any epidemiologists before 2020, but since then they are quoted nearly every day.  So many media articles start with variations on the same theme — 'Experts have warned that COVID-19 cases are on the rise again,' or 'Experts have called for restrictions to be tightened,' or 'Experts have warned against complacency' about COVID-19.  Experts and the media have worked together to create waves of fear (we are all equally at risk — but we aren't) to justify eternal vigilance, placing our societies on a constant war footing and periodically placing whole populations in home detention.  If the current pandemic is seen to end, they will warn against the next one.  After COVID-19 will come COVID 2024 or 2025.  The distinguished Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben rightly declared: 'A society that lives in a perennial state of emergency cannot be a free society.'

The Mighty Gorsuch vs. the Administrative State:  Quotes from West Virginia vs. EPA.  The power of the administrative state to destroy liberty and property — to blast through legislation, science, and judicial oversight — was never more on display than in the last two and a half years.  One would hope that the deep bureaucracies would have learned their lessons on how not to respond to a new pathogen.  There is no evidence they have.  Regardless, the real problem is much deeper.  It has to do with the status of the administrative state as the effective governing apparatus of the US.  It's not Congress and not the President.  It's the vast and permanent bureaucracy of 432 agencies and 2.9 [million] bureaucrats who are unreachable by any standard of personnel management.

N.J. pharmacist charged with selling fake COVID vaccine cards for $250 to undercover cops.  A pharmacist from Bayonne was arrested after she allegedly sold COVID-19 vaccine records cards to undercover investigators on three occasions for $250 each without giving them the shot, authorities said Friday [7/1/2022].  Christina Bekhit, a licensed pharmacist who runs AllCare Pharmacy on Avenue C, was arrested June 22, according to the Office of the New Jersey General.  She was charged with second-degree computer criminal activity, third-degree tampering with public information and fourth-degree destruction, falsification or alteration of medical care records.

Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, Early COVID Therapeutics Innovator, Dies at 48.  Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, a Nobel prize-nominated physician who famously discovered and used an early treatment for COVID, dubbed the "Zelenko Protocol," passed on June 30, 2022, at the age of 48 after a long battle with pulmonary artery sarcoma, a rare form of cancer.  He was born in 1973, in Kyiv, Ukraine, and came to Brooklyn, New York, in 1977 with his family.  Zelenko earned a B.S. in chemistry with high honors at Hofstra University and then earned an M.D. at the Buffalo School of Medicine in 2000.  He had been practicing in Monroe, New York, in 2020 during the outbreak of COVID-19, and is credited with having treated about 7,500 patients with his method.

Dr. Vladimir Zelenko (1973-2022), Rest In Peace.  As a physician who masterfully combined the skills of both critical thinking and the scientific method, and who shaped their application out of his love for both God and patients, Zev was not content to sit back and wait for politicians or public health officials to settle upon a prescribed treatment path.  People were dying.  He began searching almost immediately for a method of treatment.  Aided by initiative, good fortune, and from his account divine intervention, he discovered a treatment in combining Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), zinc, azithromycin, and other various drugs, especially steroids, and creating what has come to be known as the "Zelenko protocol," based on the concept of very early intervention to treat the virus inside the cellular level before it could break loose and develop into a full-blown respiratory disease.  Up to the time of his death, Zev had overseen the treatment of approximately 7,500 patients using his protocol and experienced only three patient deaths.  The use of the Zelenko protocol has spread worldwide.

Immoral Democrats Make Excuses, Blame Others, and Divide.  [Scroll down]  They act first and then make excuses.  Does that sound familiar?  That's the Democrats' notorious "never let a crisis go to waste" mantra.  Did the American people ever get a chance to vote on mask or vaccine mandates?  Were they permitted an opportunity to weigh their personal risks of dying from COVID-19 against the severe economic costs of losing their jobs while large sectors of the nation's economy remained locked down?  Did parents have a choice as to whether their children's schools would be closed and their educations forestalled?  Of course not.  Without even the pretense of consulting American citizens or respecting their constitutional rights, bureaucrats and elected officials closed churches, broke up protests, urged social media companies to censor dissenting points of view, and coerced Americans to take an experimental vaccine before it had undergone normal long-term testing.  All these imperious actions were done for "our own good" and to "save lives" because "we're all in this together."  Yet two-plus years of health mandates have given officials extraordinary powers to control Americans' lives and livelihoods at the expense of Americans' free will.

Why Officials Are Desperate to Get COVID Shots on Childhood Schedule Before 'Emergency' Ends.  Statistics show the rate of COVID-19 associated hospitalization among children aged 5 to 11 is 0.0008%.1 In real-world terms, that's so close to zero you basically cannot lower it any further.  Yet, despite such reassuring data, children in this age group are urged to get two to three doses of the COVID jab, even though side effects of the injection could harm them for life, or kill them.  As noted by the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation[...], myocarditis — one of the recognized effects of the COVID jab — "has a mortality rate of 25% to 56% within three to 10 years, owing to progressive heart failure and sudden cardiac death."  Sudden cardiac death is what the media and public health agencies are now glibly referring to as "sudden adult death syndrome" or SADS.  The older and more appropriate description for SADS is "sudden arrhythmic death syndrome," but they don't even want to use the word "arrhythmic" anymore, as that tells you what the death is really caused by, and many are now aware that the jab can cause heart inflammation.

Dr. Fauci Took Some of His Own Medicine, and It Didn't Go Well.  On June 15, Dr. Anthony Fauci announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19.  It was a long time coming since nearly everyone around him in the White House has tested positive at least once.  In fact, the number of high-profile people with repeated infections is rising — former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and Prince Charles, to name a few.  Of course, what they all had in common was every single COVID jab available to them.  Fauci was no exception.  When he provided an update on his condition during a conference call on June 23, he said, "I had one day of symptomatology.  I started on Wednesday on Paxlovid.  And I was on Paxlovid for five days.  And I have now finished Paxlovid, and I am still feeling really quite fine."  Then he gave the obligatory nod to the treatments he has advocated and even supported mandating for others.

Life Insurance CEO Reveals Deaths Are Up 40% Among Working People:  "Just unheard of".  Lincoln National has grown to be the fifth-largest life insurance company in America.  However, things aren't so hot right now for the life insurance business — evidenced by the fact that in 2021, Lincoln National reported a 163 percent increase in death benefits that were paid out under their group life insurance policies.

Ted Cruz tears into Sesame Street for 'aggressively advocating' vaccinating children under five.  Sen. Ted Cruz's war on Sesame Street resumed Tuesday after the Texas Republican saw that the fictional muppet Elmo had been vaccinated against COVID-19.  'Thanks, @sesamestreet for saying parents are allowed to have questions!  You then have @elmo aggressively advocate for vaccinating children UNDER 5,' Cruz tweeted.  'But you cite ZERO scientific evidence for this.'  Elmo, who's been a Sesame Street character for decades, is only age 3.

The Editor says...
The Republican Party has been talking about defunding PBS for decades.  It can't be done, for two reasons.  PBS is a sacred cow that nobody wants to touch, and the Republicans haven't defunded anything I can remember.

What's With the Democrats' Abortion Obsession?  The whole abortion thing kind of baffles me because it is absolutely bizarre that anyone would choose this particular hill to die on or, rather, to kill a bunch of babies on. [...] They have no problem telling people what they can and can't do as a principle.  So why did libs choose pro instead of con?  It's not about freedom.  They're against that.  And it's not about some sort of highfalutin' commitment to "bodily integrity."  These are the same people who wanted you to be a testbed for every potion and poultice Pfizer and the rest of the Big Pharma folks created to address a somewhat more dangerous strain of the flu.  If you didn't inject it, you were a bad person of badness and you should be thrown out of your job, denied schooling, and possibly even jailed.  Also, wear your mask.

Germany's experience with Covid 'vaccines' suggests they increase Omicron infections.  The former East Germany has a lower vaccination rate than the former West Germany and this has resulted in a lower incidence of the latest covid variant.  It seems, though the Berlin Wall fell more than 30 years ago, the former East Germans have a memory of distrusting government pronouncements and edicts, for self-preservation.  This instinct has served them well at a time when the only reason governments bother to tell us anything is in order to lie to us.  As well as making pronouncements and issuing edicts, government health officials can lead by example.  The world's leading health bureaucrat, Anthony Fauci, has had four doses of spike protein (labelled as vaccinations) and is thus — if Germany's experience is any guide — more likely to be infected with covid than if he had remained unvaccinated.  He has duly contracted covid and it seems that it is not a mild case because he elected to take a course of paxlovid.

What's going on with our commercial airlines?  We've never had a pilot shortage before.  We may currently have more air travelers needing flights than a year ago, but not more than before COVID — and yet, here we are, facing an entirely new problem.  It's so bad that American Airlines is offering pilots on its regional carriers double and triple pay for the month of July if they'll take extra flights.  It's not hard to figure out what's happening — despite the seeming prohibition on our pilots saying anything about it.  We rarely hear a peep from them, at least on mainstream news outlets. [...] Let's put the blame for this shortage squarely where it belongs:  On COVID "vaccination" policy.  Many pilots who got the jabs are suffering injuries and have been unable to pass their required 6-month comprehensive physicals.  None of us want a pilot who has a heart attack mid-flight.  If you search the net, you come up with reports like this one from last week that pretty much says it all but they're not from mainstream sources, of course.  Such reports are forbidden fruit for widely heard reporters.

Anthony Fauci says that he's experienced rebound Covid symptoms after taking a Pfizer's antiviral Paxlovid.  Dr. Anthony Fauci confirmed on Tuesday that he is suffering from 'Covid rebound' symptoms after being treated with Paxlovid.  Paxlovid, a drug that was anointed as America's silver bullet against COVID-19 by some health officials and even President Joe Biden, may not have any effectiveness for people that are already vaccinated, according its manufacturer Pfizer's own data.  Fauci, 81, broke the news while speaking remotely at the Foreign Policy Global Health Forum.

First Vaccine Death Pay-Out in the UK.  More than a year after 48-year-old rock singer Zion died after receiving an AstraZeneca jab, his fiancé, Vikki Spit, became the first person in the UK to receive compensation for a COVID-19 vaccine death.  Zion started to get headaches eight days after getting the injection, and these became so severe that a few days later he suffered a seizure and was admitted to hospital.  He died after undergoing surgery just two weeks after being vaccinated.  The amount Spit received was around $147,000, which is the maximum compensation level set under the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme of 1979.  But, as that was established 43 years ago, she feels this is an inadequate amount.  Before the pharmaceutical giants would release their experimental COVID-19 vaccines in the UK, they demanded immunity from claims due to death or injury caused by their product.

Survey: More Than 750,000 Dead, 30 Million Injured Because of Covid Vax.  The United States federal bodies responsible for the nation's healthcare policies keep turning a blind eye to the devastating number of deaths and injuries associated with experimental gene therapeutics against Covid, aka Covid vaccines.  All severe reactions to the shots are proclaimed "rare."  Steve Kirsch, California tech entrepreneur and founder of the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation (VSRF), has estimated that the shots have left as many as five million Americans unable to work, 30 million injured, and more than 750,000 dead, as of June 24, 2022.  According to the latest survey conducted by Pollfish on behalf of the VSRF, vaccines are associated with a very high number of adverse reactions, including lethal and life-altering ones.  That means that the vaccinations should be halted immediately.

Leftists ignore contradictions regarding abortion and vaccines.  [Scroll down]  Ironically, those same, currently rioting Progressives are determined to make sure nobody has the right to make other health decisions for themselves, especially when it comes to their precious pandemic.  Facts are censored and scientists silenced.  The show of bureaucratic power must go on.  They forget, completely, that their abortion argument would be more valid when applied to our right to bodily autonomy with the COVID fiasco.  It's obvious, if you look at actual, uncensored facts, that incorrect, dictatorial bureaucratic shutdowns and forced "vaccination" have perpetuated the pandemic and unnecessarily destroyed the health and businesses of countless citizens, young and old[.]  We can't walk into a store without a mask if the county or state health department so dictates.  We can't keep a job without the COVID jab, no matter that we are needed, want to work, and know beyond a doubt that the "vaccine" doesn't work at all.  We, here in California, if the state gets its way, will have zero "right" to keep our children from being pressured to take the jab at age 15, without needing parental consent.  We've had to show "vaccine passports" for long periods of time — again, despite that 100% certain fact that the "vaccine" is detrimental to our health.  Now, they want to give it to babies.

More pandemics to come thanks to climate change, industrial development and inequality, 'experts' say.  While President Biden was recently praising his government for trying to ensure that kids as young as 6-months-old get injected with an experimental mRNA "vaccine" that doesn't work and has proven to be dangerous, he also flatly stated that "There's going to be another pandemic."  Maybe Democrats will get "lucky" and one will break out in the weeks leading up to the November 8th election.  But, hey, many "experts" are predicting an increase in outbreaks of pestilence and disease.  To wit: according to a recent report on France 24, the World Health Organization's (WHO) emergencies director Michael Ryan said, "The number of times that these diseases cross into humans is increasing.  Then our ability to amplify that disease and move it on within our communities is increasing."  Stated Greg Albery, a disease ecologist at Georgetown University, "We need improved surveillance both in urban and wild animals so that we can identify when a pathogen has jumped from one species to another."  Ah, more surveillance.

Feds: YOU must be vaxxed — but WE don't have to be.  In January, a 5-4 Supreme Court decision ruled that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services could continue requiring the healthcare providers and suppliers it certified to ensure their staff — including employees, volunteers and anyone else providing care — are vaccinated against COVID-19 if they wanted to remain eligible for federal funding.  Initially, the surveyors who oversee compliance with this mandate were also required to be vaccinated, but in a June 16 memo, CMS simply gave them a pass:  This "guidance does not include any possibilities of penalties for noncompliance," and the federal government "prohibits facilities from inquiring about surveyor vaccination status," it wrote.  Meaning:  The government's own mandate enforcers aren't expected to follow the very rules they're enforcing.

Modern Medical Ethics and How They Relate to Roe vs. Wade.  [Scroll down]  Similar degrees of gross ethical malfeasance regularly occur within the federal government.  In a recent article, I reviewed some of the truly evil experiments Anthony Fauci has conducted on vulnerable civilians, and his refusal to ever come clean to the experimental participants over the fact he was being paid handsomely to experiment on them.  Many more are discussed within The Real Anthony Fauci, an excellent book that overlaps with many of the areas discussed in the first phase of this substack.  I do not believe I am exaggerating when I claim that Anthony Fauci is the individual who has had the greatest influence on scientific research in the United States, something quite concerning given the complete lack of ethics in many of his studies.  When I reviewed that story before, I left out the most incredulous part — since 1996 his wife has served as the chief bioethicist of the United States and for some reason still has not gotten around to addressing the ethical lapses of her spouse.

Australia among western nations with highest number of covid cases.  Australia has been labelled a "complete flop" for wasting two years on lockdowns only to lead the western world in Covid-19 cases.  An analysis of daily new confirmed cases of coronavirus shows that as of this week Australia's seven-day rolling average is 1,100 cases per million people.  That is higher than the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Italy, as well as dozens of other western nations.  The European average is just 398 cases per million people.

Astonishing Testimony From Dr. Birx Lost Amid Landmark SCOTUS Rulings.  With several controversial SCOTUS rulings addressing divisive issues like gun rights and abortion, an exchange between Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Dr. Debra Birx during a congressional hearing on Thursday [6/23/2022] escaped scrutiny.  However, if a power-hungry politician, university, or employer compelled you or someone you love to receive an experimental vaccine in the last two years, it may make you furious.  And Birx should be ashamed of herself for not speaking out earlier.  The House Oversight and Reform Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis held a hearing with Birx Thursday morning.  Jordan questioned Birx on the United States' participation in and funding of the World Health Organization and gain-of-function research.  Birx was candid, saying that the United States should withhold funding from the WHO until needed reforms occur.  She also said that the U.S. should not participate in some gain-of-function research, such as any in China.

A mass exodus from the Democrats' America.  As the Washington Examiner reported this week, the end of the COVID-19 pandemic has done nothing to arrest the trend of people fleeing large cities in liberal coastal states for more pleasant and orderly locales, particularly in the Mountain West and the Sun Belt.  A mixture of unreasonable pandemic restrictions, rising crime, lawlessness, and hostility toward employers has forced this continued urban exodus. [...] It is hardly a coincidence that all 15 of the 15 fastest-growing cities and towns between July 2020 and July 2021 are in states that Republicans govern:  Arizona, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and Idaho.  And 14 out of the 15 fastest-declining cities during the same period were in states that Democrats governed at the time.  What towns and cities gaining population generally have in common both before and during COVID-19 is that they live under laws made by Republicans.  What towns and cities losing population have in common is that they live under laws made by Democrats.  Not all Democratic states and cities are equally anti-business, but COVID-19 helped bring out the totalitarian side of many state and city governments, driving away and keeping away many former and prospective residents.

Pfizer CEO Says Annual COVID Vaccine Booster is Almost a Certainty.  This brief soundbite from last week is somewhat of a precursor to the points raised by Neil Oliver this week.  The financial interests of the Big Rx corporations are directly tied to government.  This is the origin of the biggest issue behind government mandating the forced vaccination program for SARS-CoV-2 and any COVID-19 variant.  The adverse medical consequences from the COVID-19 vaccination program are only just now starting to surface while the government and Rx corporations continue to hide data showing adverse impacts.  At the same time as this massive conflict of interest and general health controversy is being debated, Pfizer CEO Albert Poula says he is "almost certain" that mandatory vaccine boosters will be part of the requirement by government each year.  [Video clip]

Neil Oliver Outlines Madness of New Push to Vaccinate Children 6 Months to 5 Years Old.  In this week's discussion monologue, Neil Oliver outlines a recent push by U.S. and U.K. authorities to vaccinate children under 5-years of age.  Despite almost zero risk to their health from COVID-19 or any variant, in the U.S. the FDA has recently approved vaccinations for babies 6-months and older.  Mr. Oliver notes the risk vs reward in this health protocol is ridiculous on its face.  There is no substantive risk from COVID19 to any healthy child or young adult, yet the government institutions of healthcare are seemingly blind to the medical evidence.  [Video clip]

The Truth Lion Cometh.  [Scroll down]  OK, just to put a fork in it and call it done, this means that the fact that the vaccines were not effective at preventing infection, replication, and transmission of the virus were known to the Response Coordinator of the White House Coronavirus Task Force during the Trump administration, and furthermore, Dr. Birx explicitly acknowledged that the clinical trials were not designed to assess whether the genetic vaccines could enable herd immunity (to achieve which requires a product that can block or seriously reduce transmissibility of the pathogen).  Therefore, these facts were known by Dr. Birx well before the time when the Washington Post was accusing me of being a liar for stating precisely this truth on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.  Of course Youtube has deleted videos of that speech, but it can still be found on Rumble, and the prepared text is still available [elsew]here. [...] Just to reinforce the point, the US Constitution does not mention regulation of public health or medical practice as a Federal Government role or responsibility, and therefore the right to manage public health and medical practice practices vests with the States, not with unelected federal bureaucrats such as Dr. Birx and her mentor Dr. Fauci.  There must be accountability and restitution for the damages incurred to those who were mandated by the US Federal Government to receive the unlicensed, Emergency Use Authorized products.

Why the trillions in COVID-19 relief money led to billions in fraud.  Raise your hand if you're surprised that the trillions of dollars spent on COVID-19 relief gave way to billions of dollars in government waste, fraud and abuses.  I'm not, but based on recent reporting, you might think this type of carelessness with taxpayers' money has never before happened.  Sadly, such waste and fraud are normal byproducts of most government programs.  Too much focus on waste and fraud misses a more important problem:  Lots of the COVID-19 spending that doesn't qualify as wasteful or fraudulent was nonetheless misspent.  When the pandemic hit the United States in March 2020, people all over the country panicked.  Everyone seemed to agree that the right thing to do was pump the nation full of as much money as possible, as fast as possible.  As a result, nearly everyone — married, unmarried, employed, unemployed, through businesses small and large — got cash through the $2 trillion CARES Act.

USAF Pilot Facing Discharge for Rejecting COVID Vaccine.  USAF pilot Lt. John Bowes dreamt of flying and protecting the country his entire life — since he was a child.  He is heartbroken now that he had to put his religious faith over his dream due to the COVID vaccine mandates within the U.S. military, but believes that God is helping him get through the tribulation and that he has a duty to speak up.  The 24-year-old was an F-16 student pilot but was taken out of training and prevented from flying since September of last year when he first submitted his religious accommodation.  "I exercised my constitutional and statutory right to receive a religious accommodation.  And then I was, as a direct consequence of doing that, removed from training to fly the F-16.  I personally believe that is religious discrimination," Bowes told The Epoch Times.  He made clear that his views are not representative of the USAF.

Vaccines — Are They Still Contributing to the Greater Good?  We are republishing articles from past years that remain eerily relevant in today's unprecedented climate.  The multiple award-winning documentary, "The Greater Good," was initially released in 2011.  We published it on our site for the first time seven years ago.  This article has now been viewed a million times.  Ten years since the films debut, the tragic truth about the toxic effects of vaccines on brain and immune system health that was revealed in this groundbreaking film is as just as true today as it was when it was first shown in film festivals around the U.S.  It's incredibly important to view this documentary in the context of the mass COVID-19 injection campaign, in which the public is being coerced and forced via mandates to accept a largely experimental injection.  While many experts have spoken out that the risks of the COVID-19 jabs are too great for many populations, including children and young people, pregnant women and people who are already naturally immune, health officials are still pushing the jabs for "the greater good."

Sudden Adult [Vaccine] Death Syndrome:  Excess Deaths in Australia are up 18% since the start of 2022.  According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), 44,331 deaths occurred by the 27th of March 2022, which is 6,609 more deaths than the historical average, equating to an 18% rise in deaths.  However, of the 44,331 deaths to have occurred by 27th March, just 2,903 deaths were associated with Covid-19, equating to just 6% of all deaths.

New preprint study showing non-vaccinated less likely to be hospitalized is republished on MSN.com, then quickly taken down.  COVID-19 is the largest and the most comprehensive psychological operation in human history.  Narratives are meticulously controlled.  Propaganda is persistent.  Fear is key to the success of this psy-op.  But ultimately mainstream media propaganda channels are run by humans who either experience mea culpas or simply make critical errors that could potentially awaken the lambs.  Microsoft is now cleaning up one of those errors that caused major upheaval among vaxx zealots.  The Control Group Cooperative (CGC) was formed in July 2021.  The founders recognized that traditional research universities and organizations refuse to do studies comparing the health of vaccinated versus non-vaccinated populations.  Dr. Robert Verkerk of the Alliance for Natural Health International, led a team that analyzed the CGC data, that currently includes over 305,000 non-vaccinated study participants in 175 countries.  They are all provided ID cards that identify them as clinical subjects and thus "must not be vaccinated."

45-Year-Old Canadian Paralyzed After Pfizer Shot Waiting for Government to Respond.  More than 11 months after becoming paralyzed from the waist down 12 days after getting his second dose of a Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, Julian Scholefield is waiting for the Canadian government's decision on his request for compensation.  "I'm paralyzed now, not because of a reckless accident, but because I followed the guidelines of our government, and so that validation and recognition is definitely something that would mean a lot to me," Scholefield told CBC News.  Scholefield, a 45-year-old in British Columbia, was diagnosed with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), a rare neurological disorder that causes inflammation of the brain and spinal cord that damages myelin — the protective covering of nerve fibers.

Doctors question kids' vax as U.K. research shows minuscule COVID risk.  The quality of evidence for the FDA's emergency use authorization (EUA) of COVID-19 vaccines for children as young as 6 months is drawing scrutiny from high-profile doctors and academics, some of whom are asking the White House not to pressure parents to vaccinate.  With CDC seroprevalence data from February finding 75% of minors had natural immunity, more attention is going to the risk/benefit calculation of vaccines for the age group at lowest risk from COVID.  Parents on the fence may find their hesitancy reaffirmed by new studies, not yet peer-reviewed, on the COVID infection fatality rate (IFR) by age and underlying health conditions and "serious adverse events of interest" following mRNA vaccination.

Growing Revolt Among Medical Practitioners Against Vaccinating Toddlers for Covid.  IM Doc has been particularly unhappy about the push to deploy the Covid mRNA vaccines in children under five years of age.  Based on his many years working on an Institutional Review Board, he believe the bar for safety testing for children, particularly very young ones, is high, and it has not been met for these vaccines.  It turns out he is far from alone.  It appears many medical practitioners are seeing vaccinating kids this young as a bridge too far and some are flat out refusing to administer them.

Deranged COVID-clingers still want Broadway-goers to be put through Rikers-like procedures.  It is hard to think of any sector of the economy that made itself more dislikeable than the theater industry during the era of COVID.  Restaurants easily dropped the vaccine mandates and mask demands.  They became welcoming to customers again.  Even the airline companies ended up lifting the mask mandates and, just like the restaurants, people sat close together with no spike in infections.  But New York's theaters held onto their masks for dear life.  I sometimes wondered whether the last two places on earth that everyone would still mask would be Broadway and the offices of NPR.  But now — miracle of miracles — it has just been announced that Broadway's theaters will go "mask optional" from July 1.  Yet much of theater-land reacted badly.  One playwright and actor immediately tweeted "Make no mistake:  the end of the Broadway mask mandates will wreak havoc in New York Theater.  It's an unacceptable attack on the safety of theater workers."

COVID-19 Vaccination Reactivates Highly Contagious Virus:  Studies.  Doctors and scientists are seeing an increase in the reactivation of the chickenpox virus, known as varicella-zoster virus (VZV), following the COVID-19 injections.  The chickenpox virus is one of the eight herpes viruses known to infect humans.  After a person contracts and recovers from chickenpox, the virus never leaves the body but lies dormant in the nervous system for life.  The chickenpox virus will show up as shingles, or herpes zoster (HZ) when it gets reactivated.  Federal health authorities claim that there's no correlation between COVID-19 injections and shingles, but studies show that there is a higher incidence of shingles in people who've received the vaccine.

Austria Drops COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate, Admits Causing Social Division.  The nation of Austria has suspended its controversial COVID-19 vaccine mandate, with government officials citing concerns about the policy infringing on individual freedoms.  Ministers for health and constitutional affairs announced the move on June 22nd, just six days before individuals who failed to comply with the policy would have begun receiving fines for their decision.  The measure was the most comprehensive mandate within the European Union, as it applied to all adults with virtually no exceptions.  It had been in effect since February 5th, 2022, but enforcement formally began on March 15th, 2022[.]

Finding our Way Through a Wilderness of Mirrors.  The creation of the COVID-19 pandemic brought about an inversion of best practices and the suppression of dissent throughout all divisions of the Department of Health and Human Services — the largest federal bureaucracy.  While there was uncertainty of how to handle the new China virus strain in the beginning, we learned a lot quickly.  First, we realized that PCR testing was fundamentally flawed and drove high numbers of false positive COVID diagnoses, yet it continued to be the primary testing standard — the likely explanation for which was that it boosted the pandemic fear factor and contributed to the mass acceptance of universal vaccination.  Second, more money was given to hospitals that reported COVID deaths than reported death from other causes — the likely explanation for which was again to boost the mortality numbers and pandemic fear factor so as to herd people into vaccination.  Third, doctors' Hippocratic oath was nullified by denying them the option of prescribing safe FDA-approved therapeutic medications effective in treating COVID — the likely explanation for which was that it kept the pandemic narrative going and narrowed treatment options to vaccination.

Technocracy 101: If Fed and CDC Are 'Independent,' Elections Mean Nothing.  Basic civics recap: the US president, per the Constitution, is the elected executive.  That means he is tasked with executing government functions.  He is granted — again, through a theoretically democratic election process — the authority to dictate government activities within the confines of the laws.  The legislative branch passes laws; the judicial branch vets them for constitutionality; the executive implements them.  The process, as designed, is not at all vague.  How odd, then, that the Biden White House press secretaries — first Jen Psaki and now the admitted diversity hire Karine Jean-Pierre — repeatedly undermine their own president's executive authority.  Whenever they're asked about Federal Reserve or CDC (Centers for Disease Control) policies — government agencies under the umbrella of executive authority — they refuse to give a straight answer on the grounds that the government body in question is "independent."  The WH has the same hands-off approach to the dictates of the CDC and the shadowy, unelected "experts" who set its policies.

Biden Announces a New Plandemic Right before the Midterm Elections.  The Democrats aren't even bothering to hide it anymore.  They need lockdowns and mail-in ballots to have a chance at winning the next election — and that's exactly what they're planning.  [Video clip]

Aviation Industry Calls Out 'HOSTILE' Environment Vaccine-Injured Pilots Must Endure.  One of the biggest industries that fought against Covid-19 vaccine mandates was the aviation industry — more specifically pilots.  According to a report from Natural News, commercial airline pilots were routinely "disrespected, grounded, and forced to comply with destructive medical experiments" throughout the whole duration of the vaccination requirements controversy.  Which forced many pilots into early retirement.

Science magazine admits covid "vaccines" are useless and harmful.  British researchers say that Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines" do not provide any real protection against the latest "variant" of the disease, which the establishment is calling "Omicron" (Moronic).  A new paper published in the magazine Science reveals that both antibody and T-cell protection are nowhere to be found post-injection.  Meanwhile, the shots leave behind mystery substances inside a person's body, often leading to chronic illness or early death.  Another thing the paper found is that the "fully vaccinated" are suffering so-called "breakthrough" infections with Moronic, as their T-cell response is now artificially tuned towards earlier variants of the disease such as Delta.

Report: CDC Is Not Monitoring VAERS for Covid Vax Safety Signals.  Experimental gene therapeutics against Covid, aka Covid vaccines, have been prescribed and often mandated to all "eligible" Americans.  Just recently, the recommendation to take them has been expanded to include infants as young as six months old.  Federal health authorities and the Biden administration continue to claim the shots are "lifesaving" and "safe and effective."  Apparently though, the claim of safety is speculative at best, since the government admitted it has been ignoring post-marketing adverse reactions submitted to its primary monitoring database.  According to a report posted by Children's Health Defense (CHD) on Tuesday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), whose mission is to "increase the health security of our nation," did not pay attention to its vaccine-safety system called the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) when it came to Covid shots.

American Board of Internal Medicine:  "There shall be no public accountability on our decision to de-certify Dr. McCullough".  ABIM contacted Dr. Peter McCullough in a letter dated May 26, 2022[,] notifying him he is accused of spreading misinformation and started an investigation to remove his board certification. [...] Senator Ron Johnson heard about the letter and sent a letter dated June 15 to Dr. Richard Baron, President & CEO of the ABIM where he politely offered to host an expert panel of doctors in Washington DC to resolve what the science actually says, similar to the widely popular "A second opinion" panel he hosted, but this time with scientists on both sides. [...] Note that Johnson's original panel invited scientists on all sides but nobody was willing to support the false narrative so it ended up being one-sided, but not for lack of trying.  ABIM refused Johnson's offer.  Dr. Baron sent Senator Johnson a "thanks but no thanks" reply saying they are perfectly capable of disciplining Dr. McCullough, without any outside assistance.  Dr. Baron said that the discipline procedure is private (even though McCullough waives all privacy), ABIM doesn't want anyone to know.  ABIM and its appointed panel of doctors will make all decisions on de-certification.  They do not need to hear from scientists with opposing views on what constitutes misinformation, nor do they want to.  In other words, ABIM will make scientific assessments in private, behind closed doors, using a panel they appoint.  They will not be held accountable to any public scrutiny.  So there!

End Vaccine Mandates for Summer Travel.  Last Friday was the busiest travel day of the year so far, but hundreds of thousands of airline passengers were stranded by flight cancellations.  Including last Thursday, more than 35,000 flights in the United States were canceled or delayed over the holiday weekend.  Nearly a third of all flights last Thursday and Friday were late in arriving.  At least those travelers ultimately reached their destination, except where delays caused passengers to miss a connecting flight and then be stuck overnight in an unfamiliar city.  Hundreds of passengers were grounded at the Atlanta airport for more than 24 hours.  One mother with an 11-month-old daughter was stranded without infant formula, which had gone with their checked bag to Omaha.

Rock musician's fiancee will become first person in UK to receive £120,000 Covid vaccine damage payment.  A rock musician's fiancée will become the first person in the UK to receive £120,000 Covid vaccine damage payment after the 48-year-old died from a blood clot following his AstraZeneca jab.  The singer, known as Lord Zion, fell ill with an agonising headache on May 13 last year- eight days after having the first jab, at Penrith Auction Mart in Cumbria.  He died at Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle, on May 19.

Biden Says White House Needs More Money for Next Pandemic.  Earlier today, touting vaccines for babies and children 6months through 5 years of age, Joe Biden explained they needed more taxpayer money to give to pharmaceutical lobbyists to pay for vaccines and organize the next pandemic.  [Video clip]

26-Yr-Old NFL Player Dies Unexpectedly:  Cause of Death Is "Unknown".  26-yr-old Baltimore Ravens linebacker Jaylon Ferguson has died.  Like so many young celebrities and athletes who've been unexpectedly dropping dead around the world, Ferguson's cause of his death is "unknown."  While Ferguson's COVID vaccination status is unknown (as it should be), many people around the world are questioning the stunning number of healthy teens and young adult athletes who received the COVID jab and later died unexpectedly.  On July 22, 2021, the NFL sent a strong message to its players regarding the COVID vaccine, letting them know that while they are not mandating that players accept the experimental jab, they would be severely punished by being held responsible for the financial losses a team would incur if they had to cancel a game over a COVID outbreak and that the NFL commissioner may also levy additional punitive actions.

Neil Oliver Stays Focused, the Questions We are Not Allowed to Ask.  In his monologue this week Neil Oliver hits the target so perfectly he deserves extra appreciation.  You see, like many[,] including us, Oliver refuses to just let the two years of COVID madness disappear in the ether as if it didn't exist, simply because the elites now find the questioning a little too uncomfy.  For two years they shoved their intolerant fingers in our faces, destroyed lives and livelihoods, made ridiculous demands in order to sustain their own fear, threatened our children, destroyed the economy, used COVID as an excuse to destroy families and steal an election, attempted to force us to kneel at the altar of their mask wearing and never-ending vaccine [npnsense,] and we're just supposed to what, forgive them?  Fat chance.  [Video clip] [...] Those who perpetrated these two years of hell need to be held to account, and unfortunately, this type of accountability is so severe in consequence there can be no quarter provided or terms which might provide even the most remote possibility of a reoccurrence.  It is uncomfortable to accept that our response needs to be of such severity that our children will be witness to a visible anger they did not know their parents were capable of.  But witness they must if we are to ensure these vile and intolerant leftist creatures are destroyed forever.  I would rather provide the opportunity for my children to forgive me, than to see them forever living in a hopeless land of totalitarianism where freedom and liberty have been dispatched from their lives.  At least in the former their choice is possible.

New study: 133x risk of myocarditis after COVID vaccination.  A recent study published on January 25, 2022, on JAMA Network, has shown that the risk of myocarditis following mRNA COVID vaccination is around 133 times greater than the background risk in the population.  The study, conducted by researchers from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) as well as from several U.S. universities and hospitals, examined the effects of vaccination with products manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna.  The study's authors used data obtained from the CDC's VAERS reporting system which were cross-checked to ensure they complied with CDC's definition of myocarditis; they also noted that given the passive nature of the VAERS system, the number of reported incidents is likely to be an underestimate of the extent of the phenomenon.  1626 cases of myocarditis were studied, and the results showed that the Pfizer-BioNTech product was most associated with higher risk, with 105.9 cases per million doses after the second vaccine shot in the 16 to 17 age group for males, and 70.7 cases per million doses after the second shot in the 12 to 15 age group for males.  The 18 to 24 male age group also saw significantly higher rates of myocarditis for both Pfizer's and Moderna's products (52.4 and 56.3 cases per million respectively).

Watchdog Finds 69 Percent of NIH Grantees Don't Report All Foreign Ties.  Nearly three-fourths of National Institutes of Health (NIH) grantees fail to properly report their researchers' ties to foreign countries and companies, according to an investigation by the Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General (HHS-IG).  "More than two-thirds of grantees failed to meet one or more requirements for investigators' disclosure of all foreign financial interests and support.  These problems often involved requirements to disclose non-publicly traded equity interests from foreign entities and to disclose in-kind resources, professional affiliations, or participation in a foreign 'talents' program," reads the HHS-IG report, which was made public earlier in June.  "Investigators" are the researchers, scientists, and other individuals conducting research being supported with federal tax dollars received by grantees from NIH.

Here's more evidence that the COVID pandemic was a massive vacation for hundreds of thousands of federal workers.  The United States government takes in so much money, is so massive, and so bloated that there literally is hardly any effort at all to make employees accountable.  That fact was laid bare again recently by a report in the Washington Free Beacon pertaining to federal worker behaviors during the years-long COVID-19 'pandemic' which, for hundreds of thousands of them turned out to be a massive paid vacation.  "In the first months of the coronavirus pandemic, a quarter of employees at the federal government's top health agency failed to even check their emails as they worked remotely, according to internal documents" obtained by the outlet.  And if this occurred at one federal agency, you can be sure it occurred at nearly all of them (of which there are currently 432).

Biden Lets Cat out of the Bag About the 'Second Pandemic'.  [Scroll down]  "We need more money to plan for the second pandemic.  There's going to be another pandemic," Biden said.  "We have to think ahead.  And that's not something the last outfit did very well.  That's something we've been doing fairly well.  That's why we need the money."  I don't know about you, but that didn't sound like "we need more to plan for any eventuality in the future," that sounded like he knows a "second" pandemic is coming — that they're planning for a second pandemic.  He wasn't saying it might come, he's saying it will come.  So, what does he know here?  Can we expect it will arrive just in time, conveniently, before the midterm elections?  Of course, he's always looking to spend our money at every opportunity.  But the other height of folly here is his description of how the "last outfit" did with the pandemic compared to how he has done.  Talk about some rip-roaring lies.  The "last outfit" are the people who came up with the vaccines and the plans.  They're the ones who had to deal with all the real problems at the start of the pandemic.

Masks Have Worn Down Children's Immune Systems.  Children are turning up in doctors' clinics infected with as many as three different types of viruses, in what experts believe is the result of their immune systems being weakened from two years of COVID lockdowns and mask-wearing.  Medical staff have come to expect a surge in cases of flu and severe colds during the winter.  But they are reporting that there is not the usual downturn as summer approaches — and they suspect it could be due to the strict pandemic practices.  Furthermore, some of common strains of the flu appear to have disappeared, flummoxing scientists. [...] The rhinovirus, known as the common cold, is normally not severe enough to send people to hospital — but now it is.  RSV normally tapers off in the warmer weather, as does the influenza, but they have not.

1,287,595 Injuries Reported After COVID Shots, Vaccine Injury Compensation Programs 'Overwhelmed'.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) today released new data showing a total of 1,287,595 reports of adverse events following COVID-19 vaccines were submitted between Dec. 14, 2020, and May 27, 2022, to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  That's an increase of 9,615 adverse events over the previous week.  VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S.  The data included a total of 28,532 reports of deaths — an increase of 220 over the previous week — and 235,041 serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time period — up 2,347compared with the previous week.  Excluding "foreign reports" to VAERS, 825,454 adverse events, including 13,150 deaths and 83,454 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020, and May 27, 2022.

White House Covid coordinator tells parents to vaccinate their children even if they have immunity from a previous infection.  The White House's chief covid coordinator is recommending that young children who have already been infected with the virus still get vaccinated — even as data shows they suffer limited risk of hospitalization and death and that natural immunity is effective at preventing the worst outcomes.  The shots' rollout began on Tuesday, marking the youngest and final age group to be made eligible for the vaccines after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) both did green-lighted the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna shots for children six months to five years old last week.  Dr Ashish Jha, the White House's COVID-19 response coordinator, told CBS Tuesday morning that he recommends parents to get their children vaccinated, even if the child has natural immunity from a previous Covid infection — for which CDC data shows around 70 percent of U.S. minors have.

Fauci is Back with a Warning for Americans: 'Wear a Mask' When You're Indoors.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, fresh off of an epic beatdown in the Senate from Senator Rand Paul, is back with a warning for America about the fizzled out Covid-19 pandemic.  It's not over yet.  [Video clip]

So, Why, Exactly, Should We Vote Republican?  [Scroll down]  As of this moment, if not for the media reminding us that Republican politicians still exist, we could be forgiven for thinking that there is no Republican Party in America (if, that is, the GOP were the viable alternative to the Democrats that it is made out to be).  Think about it:  For over two years, the world was brought to a standstill as national economies were wrecked, global supply chains destroyed, and the lives of countless men, women — and, yes, children — ruined in every conceivable way in the name of combatting a virus.  Constitutional liberties were indefinitely revoked and all of those "little platoons," as Burke referred to the civic organizations and communities that shield individuals from the state and invest their lives with meaning, were systematically and systemically undermined.  Republicans not only did nothing to prevent these crimes against humanity — they were complicit in fueling the narrative that made this destruction possible.  Now that the Democrats recognize that COVID is no longer good business, they're moving on from the incalculable harm that they've inflicted upon the planet's population via this unprecedented power grab to do more harm under the pretext of other causes.  And Republicans and conservative pundits seem just fine with this.  To repeat, an historically unprecedented exercise of power occurred in 2020 — the country was, essentially, interned — and to judge from the silence of Republicans, the latter are perfectly comfortable with the prospect of Anthony Fauci retiring and traipsing off into the sunset in 2024.

Pfizer's COVID Vaccine Reduces Sperm Count in Men, Another Adverse Affect Of The Forced Vaccine Tyranny.  According to a recently released medical study, in a group of 37 sperm donors, across 220 samples collected, the impact of the mRNA COVID vaccine, BNT162b2 produced by Pfizer, caused men to experience a drop in fertility of more than 20%.  For more than two years now, experts have tried to deny that the FDA-approved Pfizer vaccine might impact fertility in both men and women.  In a report by NPR in 2021, experts referred to the claims as a "scare tactic" aimed at discouraging individuals from getting vaccinated.  The article states that such false claims "specifically seek to undermine trust in Pfizer... despite the decades of research."  Albeit there have not been decades of research related to mRNA COVID vaccines, a false claim by the mainstream media outlet.

White House Health Official Makes False Claim About COVID-19 Vaccines.  A White House official made a false claim on June 20 about COVID-19 vaccines while encouraging parents to get their young children vaccinated.  Dr. Ashish Jha, the White House's COVID-19 response coordinator, said that "there have not been any serious side effects of these vaccines," which isn't true.  Severe allergic reactions, blood clotting, heart inflammation, and paralysis are among the serious side effects linked to the three COVID-19 vaccines that are available in the United States.  "There is a well-documented risk of myocarditis from the COVID vaccine, especially in young men and adolescent boys, and an elevated risk of clotting in young women with the Moderna vaccine," Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a professor of medicine at Stanford University, told The Epoch Times in an email.

Fauci Refuses To 'Stop Funding Chinese' Research With US Tax Dollars.  Dr. Anthony Fauci said he was unable to commit to stop federal funding from going to Chinese scientific research, despite the U.S. intelligence community assessing the regime as America's top adversary.  Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), made the remarks while appearing virtually at the Health, Education, Labor & Pensions Committee hearing on June 16, during an exchange with Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kansas).  "The NIH is still funding research in China, at least $8 million since 2020.  In the Intelligence Community's 2022 Annual Threat Assessment, the Chinese Communist Party is presented as one of the top threats to the United States, along with Russia, Iran, Syria, and North Korea.  To my knowledge, only China is receiving U.S. research dollars," said the senator during the hearing.  "When will you as director of NIAID stop funding research in China?"  Since 2020, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded a total of $8.3 million in grants to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and its division National Center for AIDS/STD Control and Prevention, along with five top public universities in mainland China and Hong Kong, according to the NIH website.

No research shows 'significant benefit' for kids to take vaccine.  Following a hearing with officials from the FDA and NIH regarding the federal response to COVID, medical doctor and Kansas Senator Roger Marshall (R) tells One America News that their is no research showing a significant benefit in terms of lower mortality or hospitalizations for young children who receive vaccines.  [Video clip]

Neil Oliver:  The Great Resetters are Intent on Retaining Post-Pandemic Power and Control Through Fear and Finance.  Neil Oliver uses language to hack the great red pill vending machine and feed the masses.  In his weekly monologue today, Oliver notes the great resetters, the alliance of multinational corporations and government leaders, are intent on using fear and finance to build the post-covid control mechanisms over the people within western society.  Create massive costs, destabilize the people, manipulate the crisis and leave the common family left trying to figure out what is happening.  Government and bankers using fear and finance respectively; both leveraged against the people, while drumbeating the continued nonsense of climate change and the need to 'save the planet'.  [Video clip]

WHO chief 'believes Covid DID leak from Wuhan lab' after a 'catastrophic accident' in 2019.  The head of the World Health Organisation privately believes the Covid pandemic started following a leak from a Chinese laboratory, a senior Government source claims.  While publicly the group maintains that 'all hypotheses remain on the table' about the origins of Covid, the source said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organisation (WHO), had recently confided to a senior European politician that the most likely explanation was a catastrophic accident at a laboratory in Wuhan, where infections first spread during late 2019.

Your Government is trying to kill you & Depopulate the planet.  In March 2020 the British people were told that they must "stay at home" in order to "protect the NHS" and "save lives".  They were also told that the authorities needed just "three weeks to flatten the curve".  This was allegedly because of the threat of a new and emerging virus which we're told originated in the city of Wuhan, China.  But evidence suggests the Covid-19 pandemic was in fact an exaggerated lie.  A lie that involved prematurely ending the lives of thousands upon thousands of people, who you were told died of Covid-19.  A lie that has involved committing one of the greatest crimes against humanity in living memory.  A lie that has required three things — fear, your compliance, and a drug known as Midazolam. [...] So now we know —
  •   Authorities culled the elderly and vulnerable with a drug known as midazolam and told you they had died of Covid-19,
  •   Confidential Pfizer documents show a miscarriage rate between 82 and 97%,
  •   The only animal study performed to prove the safety of administering the Pfizer vaccine during pregnancy indicated an increased risk of infertility and birth defects,
  •   and further confidential Pfizer documents reveal the vaccine accumulates in the ovaries.
Unfortunately, we also have evidence that Covid-19 vaccination increases the risk of newborn babies sadly losing their lives, and it also comes from the Public Health Scotland 'Covid-19 Wider Impacts' dashboard.

Eighty percent of those DYING from "covid" in Canada are fully jabbed.  Four out of every five new deaths being blamed on the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) in Canada are occurring in people who took all of the "vaccine" injections as demanded by the Justin Trudeau regime.  The government of Canada has confirmed that 80 percent of "covid" deaths are "fully vaccinated" deaths, which completely defies the official government claim that the shots are perfectly "safe and effective" and help "stop the spread."  Amazingly, those who took three injections (the two primaries plus a "booster") account for 70 percent of all deaths — suggesting that the more Fauci Flu shots a person gets, the more likely he or she is to end up a statistic.  Epidemiology data from the Canadian government, which is reported sporadically and "when[ever] they feel like it," according to Exposé News, clearly shows that getting needled for Chinese Germs does not protect against either infection or death.

Rational Nosocomephobia?  Have you looked at the VAERS data lately?  The CDC apparently has not.  In the USA alone, there have been 831,801 adverse events, of which 12,776 are life threatening.  There have been 63,978 hospitalizations.  There have been 13,293 deaths and 14,232 permanent disabilities from these vaccines.  True, these are "unverified[,"] but previous research has shown that the VAERS system under-reported adverse events associated with vaccines, not over-reports.  Physicians and health care professionals rarely report adverse events past the 30 day window, so the true number of adverse events are unknown.  But we do know that they are higher than reported. [...] The CDC, under Freedom of Information Act Request (FOIA) has now admitted that even though they had promised to analyze the VAERS data before advising about these vaccines for children, they did not.  The VAERS data were NOT taken into consideration before the authorization of these genetic agents for babies and young children.  Frankly, this is shocking.  So shocking, it is hard for me to even write about it.

You bet they are.
China is using QR codes to try to control COVID-19. Now, protestors fear the codes are being used to monitor and track them, too.  As part of China's efforts to control COVID-19, provincial authorities have been using a contact-tracing "health code" app to monitor people's movements.  The app works off a traffic-light coding system.  The user scans a venue's QR code, and in turn, their own QR code turns either green or red.  If green, they have the all clear to enter; if red, they might have COVID-19, and must quarantine.  But a recent wave of protests in Zhengzhou in central China has led some people to fear the app is being used for a different purpose:  to monitor and target people who have taken part in these protests.

White House Gets Busted in Multiple Lies About Ron DeSantis.  Democrats are so frightened of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as a possible 2024 candidate that they are constantly making up noise against him to try to blunt his chances.  It never works, but they always come out looking desperate and silly. [...] Several problems with these claims.  First, the government doesn't dictate to doctors or hospitals what to get for their patients.  Both Jean-Pierre and the media are casting this as DeSantis wouldn't "allow" this.  Doctors and hospitals were not prohibited from getting vaccines; the only thing DeSantis was saying was that the state wasn't going to pre-order it, on behalf of the state.  As DeSantis said, "Doctors can get it.  Hospitals can get it.  But there's not going to be any state programs that are going to be trying to get COVID jabs to infants and toddlers and newborns."

Gov. Ron DeSantis [is the] First Governor To Oppose COVID Vaccines For Kids.  Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis staked his claim Thursday as the first governor in America not to provide state support for vaccinating younger kids against COVID-19.  DeSantis stressed at an event Thursday that parents can still vaccinate their young children.  Even though the state will not be working with the federal government to distribute the vaccine, that doesn't mean it is banned, according to DeSantis.  "You are free to choose — that's not the issue," he said.

A COVID rant about something that should be normalized but isn't.  I don't want to go crazy here, but the federal, state, and local governments are driving me off the edge.  My county instituted another stupid mask mandate — a useless, counterproductive exercise, which is being very, very unevenly enforced, I have to say.  In Alameda County, Berkeley has its own health department, which didn't go along.  You can go to the Berkeley Whole Foods without a mask, while Oakland requires them.  So, so stupid!  Here's [a link to] a more detailed explanation of how much harm masking does.  [Link not included here.]  The only reason for making anyone put on a mask is to control them and marginalize their liberty.  What prompted this mandate?  Who knows!  "Cases" are reported to be up.  Yeah, but what about hospitalizations and deaths?  The national COVID tracker database is gone.  First, they stopped recording numbers, so every state and county graph simply flatlined.  Then the site disappeared altogether.  Tell me why, please?  It's always been the one reliable source of information.  Did they stop so that we'd be in the dark while they pushed for more restrictions?

The Dems: 'When Will They Ever Learn?'.  A recently reported action by the CDC exemplifies Democrat failure to learn.  The CDC is the ex-trustworthy agency that falsified COVID data; altered its definitions, predictions, and pandemic metrics; and issued contradictory, non-medical recommendations.  "When will they ever learn" — the CDC, that is — that their behavior destroyed their credibility with the public?  Evidently never, as now the CDC wants to create a permanent crisis response to COVID wherever it might be detected, with a return to masking and lockdowns.  Americans have learned, but, apparently, the CDC has not:  "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."  The Biden administration promised that its approach to COVID "followed the science," "would flatten the curve," would "stop this virus in two weeks," and that lockdowns would be necessary for four to six weeks.  The president admonished Americans that it was their civic duty to get vaccinated, assuring the public that mRNA vaccines were safe, were fully protective, and would end the pandemic.  Americans have learned by painful, personal experience that every Biden pronouncement and each promise were false.  Yet he still thinks we will obey his mandates.  When will he ever learn?

U.S. Gov. Data proves Covid-19 Vaccines increase risk of suffering Shingles by at least 4925%.  Monkeypox; or the new name the W.H.O are urgently trying to find for it to make it sound more frightening, is about to become the word of the day in the mainstream media now that they know everyone is bored of hearing about Ukraine.  The World Health Organization is convening an emergency meeting and will most likely have announced a Public Health Emergency of International Concern over the alleged disease by the end of June.  All member states including the USA, UK, Canada, Europe, Australia etc. will be legally obliged to then act and respond.  But data made available by the U.S. Government strongly suggests the alleged "monkeypox" outbreak may not be what it appears to be.  The disease is nigh on impossible to distinguish from chickenpox/shingles, and the U.S. Gov. data reveals that Covid-19 vaccination increases the risk of developing shingles by a shocking 4925% at the very least.

Global-Scale COVID-19 Fraud Is Designed to Control People:  Former Pfizer VP.  Lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccine mandates are all measures not for health, but to get people under control and move toward the ultimate goal of digital ID and digital currency, said Dr. Michael Yeadon, former Pfizer vice president and chief scientific officer for allergy and respiratory research.  "In brief, I'm seeing fraud on a global scale, of which the drug companies are just part," Yeadon told EpochTV's "Facts Matter" program in a recent interview.  "There is a huge push globally to persuade people that there is a health threat in order to get them to comply with various economy-destroying measures, and then follow them up with these injections.  And I believe this is all ultimately to do with control."

ARPA-H, a branch of the IC within NIH.  [Scroll down]  Here's how this works.  Congress allocates money to the NIH, which then gets divided into the intramural activities (internal government researchers) and extramural activities (the money that goes back to congressional districts in the form of grants and contracts). Over time, this has lead to a "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" feedback loop of taxpayer-funded (or borrowed) money.  Not at all what the administrative and technical genius Vannevar Bush had envisioned when he lead the creation of the Office of Scientific Research and Development (OSRD) in 1941.  OSRD, born of the war effort, essentially became the granddaddy of the entire federal scientific research enterprise- including NIH, and neither congress nor the executive branch have ever looked back to assess if the American people are getting good value.

Dr. Fauci tests positive for COVID-19.  Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, tested positive for COVID-19 Wednesday.  Fauci, 81, tested positive on a rapid antigen test and was "experiencing mild symptoms," the National Institutes of Health said in a statement.  The NIH noted that Fauci was fully vaccinated and has received two booster shots.  "Dr. Fauci will isolate and continue to work from his home.  He has not recently been in close contact with President Biden or other senior government officials," the NIH said.

Vaxxed, Double-Boosted Fauci Catches Covid.  NIAID Director Anthony Fauci, the US figurehead of the Covid-19 crisis, has contracted the very disease he's been claiming to fight.  Reports Wednesday confirmed Fauci, Joe Biden's Chief Medical Adviser and a member of the White House COVID-19 Response Team, had contracted the coronavirus, despite the fact he's received four Covid-19 vaccines.

The Citizenry's Willingness to Surrender their Freedoms Risks a Potential Dissolution or Civil War.  Over the past two decades, far too many citizens of the United States have willingly surrendered their rights and freedoms and now they are on the cusp of being unrestorable. [...] The third event that hastened the loss of freedoms was the deliberate overreaction to the Chinese Coronavirus and the attendant lockdowns and medical tyranny.  Like 9/11, a crisis created new opportunities to restrict freedom in the name of protecting the people from a so-called "existential" threat.  Freedom of speech, the right of bodily autonomy, freedom to worship or travel or associate were abrogated by political leaders using unlawful "emergency" powers.  Unconstitutional governmental mandates covering virtually all aspects of daily life and medical treatment with unproven vaccines that did not work were enforced.  With little or no push back from the citizenry, governments unnecessarily shuttered schools, forced businesses to close and to dismiss or fire employees for disobeying government mandates, and passed new coercive laws while spending trillions on their favored causes.

Tony Fauci, the Quadruple Vaxed, Double Masked Oracle of Nonsense, Has COVID.  No other tiny human since Napoleon Bonaparte has had the outsized ego of Tony Fauci.  OK, Robert Reich is a close third.  The list of things America's lawn gnome got wrong is legendary.  I'll leave that to other RedStaters to dissect and roast.  I am in the midst of a medical "problem" that keeps me from drawing my cartoons, en masse, but I could not resist lampooning the quadruple vaxxed, double-masked oracle of fear and nonsense for contracting COVID.

New study shows Sweden's decision to keep schools open was all gain, no pain.  They did this under the guise of science and saving lives.  We now have a generation of children who are delayed in language, social skills, and educational attainment, while overburdened with mental, emotional, and behavioral ailments.  And yet it was all done for absolutely nothing — no gain, all pain.  This has been appallingly obvious since schools were shut down and then children masked in 2020, but a new study from Sweden — the global control group — demonstrates the scope of this crime with unmistakable clarity.  A study by Swedish researchers published in the International Journal of Educational Research found that in this Nordic country, "word decoding and reading comprehension scores were not lower during the pandemic compared to before the pandemic."  This is simply astounding, given what we have witnessed in almost every other country.  The researchers analyzed 97,000 Swedish primary school children from 248 different municipalities, 1,277 schools, and 5,250 classrooms.

Another suppressed COVID treatment you haven't heard of.  One day, we will learn the extent of the malicious war that was waged by politicians and Big Pharma against COVID treatments.  But if the newest study on proxalutamide in COVID patients reflects reality, you can add one more drug to the list of treatments that could have saved countless lives but which were purposefully stifled to please the gods of lockdowns, panic, and experimental injections.  Last week, Kintor Pharmaceuticals announced the results of a randomized controlled trial of the use of anti-androgen proxalutamide, a prostate cancer drug, in mild to moderate COVID patients.  It found that among the 721 American patients who received at least one day of treatment, there were seven patients in the control group who were hospitalized and one fatality compared to two hospitalized patients and zero fatalities in the proxalutamide group.  Among patients with more than seven days of treatment (N=693), six patients who received placebo were hospitalized and one died, compared to no hospitalizations/deaths in the proxalutamide group.

More Than Half Of COVID Miscarriages Were Caused By Vaccines Show VAERS Data.  A recent review of data from the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) shows that miscarriages after COVID-19 vaccination accounted for more than 50% of all vaccine-correlated miscarriages since the federal government started gathering the data.  Maria Ziminsky and Linnea Wahl, writing at Daily Clout, examine VAERS data on expectant mothers who lost their kids after inoculation from 1998, the system's first reporting date, through May 2022.  In total, 6,695 women miscarried after receiving immunizations for tetanus, measles, or any other illness throughout that time.  The evidence does not prove that vaccinations were to blame for the fatalities (it also does not rule out the possibility that the vaccines caused the deaths). Additionally, it is not stated what proportion of all pregnant vaccination recipients these cases correspond to.  This does, nevertheless, give a starting point for assessing the effects of the relatively recent COVID vaccines.

Navy officer used COVID vaccine facts to beat discharge for resisting Biden mandate.  A 22-year U.S. Navy officer told his story of fighting COVID-19 vaccine mandates and winning as part of a wide-ranging presentation Tuesday on the state of the U.S. military under President Joe Biden that was live-streamed here on LifeSiteNews.  The Flag Day press conference, hosted by the medical freedom nonprofit Truth for Health Foundation, featured remarks by Navy Lt. Billy Moseley, who objected to the mandatory COVID shots but rather than seek a religious accommodation opted to bring his objections to the administrative separation board in protest of the armed forces' plans to implement a "blanket denial policy."  "It was easy to see that there was a bait and switch happening," Moseley said Tuesday.  "And that's when I started reaching out to several medical clinics, going back several times and trying to document that that approved drug was not available [...].  And it didn't matter how many senior officers, medical officers, chaplains inside the military that I would raise these concerns about, it would just fall on deaf ears and or they would say something along the lines like, we know it's wrong.  I can see that it's illegal, but what do you want me to do?  There's nothing I can do. "

China thwarts protest by changing people's electronic health codes from 'green' to 'red'.  The Chinese government has obstructed a plan by hundreds to protest the freezing of their bank funds by triggering an app on their smartphones.  The would-be protestors have found that the electronic health codes on their smartphones have turned red, making it illegal for them to travel.  Several depositors told Reuters they had planned to travel to the central province of Henan this week to protest a block on access to their bank deposit funds, which has been in effect for almost two months.  The funds freeze has prevented not only individuals' access to savings, but companies' payment of their workers.

Doctors 'baffled' by a 'mysterious' new 'sudden death syndrome' killing healthy young people.  They're calling it Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, or SADS for short.  Just like SIDS — Sudden Infant Death Syndrome — when healthy babies die suddenly (and most often on the same day as a wellness visit to the pediatrician). Except it occurs in adults.  And children and teens too, though the name doesn't reflect that.  Yet.  Healthy, young people are suddenly dropping dead across the globe, the Daily Mail reported last week, saying the surge of the "mysterious syndrome" is baffling doctors.  The article described the case of Catherine Keane, a 31-year-old woman from Dublin who walked 10,000 steps a day and was a regular at the gym, and just didn't wake up one day when she was staying with friends.

Truth is now in plain sight.  Post-injection death tolls have reached levels that are making it very difficult for the powers-that-be to keep the lambs sleeping and the vaxx zealots enthused.  Thus they are resorting to the oldest, tried-and-true tricks in the book, particularly the "if you tell a lie enough, it becomes the truth" method.  Politifact wrote the same, regurgitated article on April 6, 2022, declaring that mRNA and viral vector DNA injections are not the cause of countless sudden deaths in adults and kids.  The Poynter Institute, Politifact's parent organization, wrote nearly the exact same "fact check" article on September 24, 2021.  The effort has been persistent, consistent and coordinated among the monolithic mainstream media since the spring of 2021.  Pfizer-owned Reuters wrote a "fact-check" on April 29, 2021 entitled, "No evidence COVID-19 vaccines will cause an 'exponential rise' in deaths."  The next day, on April 30, 2021, USA Today wrote a "fact-check" entitled, "COVID-19 vaccines don't cause death, won't decimate world's population." FactCheck.org got into the mix on March 2, 2022, with an article entitled, "COVID-19 Vaccines Have Prevented Deaths, Contrary to Misleading Graphic on Social Media."

COVID Vaccines Linked to New Type of Incurable, Fatal Degenerative Brain Disorder.  Studies suggest a link between an incurable and fatal prion disease known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) and COVID-19 vaccines.  Researchers believe the prion region from the original Wuhan COVID-19 variant's spike protein was incorporated into mRNA vaccines and adenovirus vector vaccines — given to hundreds of millions of humans — and that it can cause a new type of rapidly progressing sporadic CJD.  According to Mayo Clinic, CJD is a degenerative brain disorder that leads to dementia and, ultimately, death.  Although the Omicron variant does not have a prion region on its spike protein, current COVID-19 vaccines still use the genetic material — including the prion region — of the parent Wuhan strain.  A French pre-print paper published in May on CJD and COVID-19 vaccination identified a new form of sporadic CJD that occurred within days of receiving a first or second dose of Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.

Will FDA Allow Pfizer, Moderna to Skip Clinical Trials for Future COVID Vaccines?  Pfizer and Moderna have a problem — their COVID-19 shots do NOT work.  Everyone knows this.  The shots do not stop infection, transmission, hospitalization, or death.  Over half a billion doses of this product have been injected into Americans in the past 17 months and these shots have made NO discernible impact on the course of the pandemic.  Far more Americans have died of coronavirus since the introduction of the shots than before they were introduced.  Pfizer and Moderna are making $50 billion a year on these shots and they want that to continue.  So they need to reformulate the shots.  Maybe target a new variant, maybe change some of the ingredients — who knows, these shots don't work so it's not clear what it will take to get them to work.  This is a problem because reformulated shots mean new clinical trials and new regulatory reviews by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.  There is a decent chance that any reformulated shot might fail a new clinical trial and the public is deeply skeptical of these shots so the scrutiny would be intense.

The Latest Mask Research Is Bad News For Branch Covidians.  Unless you're visiting a medical facility still taken in by the mask-cult or you live in a big city or some obscure California county run by hypochondriac Democrat whack-jobs, you're probably generally living your life without being forced to wear a useless, bacteria-laden piece of t-shirt material over your face. [...] Indeed, the unabashed insistence that masks 'work' has become one of the most insane and evil lies in all of human history.  Not only did it create a false sense of security that doubtless led to more infections than would otherwise had occurred, it also led to years of speech and developmental delays in children, untold disruptions of societal cohesion, millions of tons of useless and pointless medical waste in our oceans and landfills, massive psychological issues in countless people who still mask-up in the absurdest of places and situations to this day, and even actual medical harms that are just being uncovered.  All while doing absolutely nothing towards their intended purpose.  If there has been a worse trade-off, I'd love to see it.

New Study Concludes Lockdowns Caused At Least 170,000+ Excess Deaths In U.S..  Yet another study has concluded that restrictive lockdowns contributed to a massive spike in excess deaths, with a 26% jump in mortality rate for working-age adults in America.  The study conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) found that there were conservatively 170,000+ non-Covid excess deaths in the U.S. through 2020 and 2021.  The study notes that the real number is likely closer to 200,000 because over 70,000 so called "unmeasured Covid deaths," that is people who may have died only with the virus and not from it, were not taken into account.  The researchers wrote that "Summing our estimates across causes and age groups, we estimate 171,000 excess non-Covid deaths through the end of 2021 plus 72,000 unmeasured Covid deaths.

Justin Bieber paralysis is a known vaccine side effect, whoops!.  Justin Bieber recently came out to tell fans he's come down with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, which caused partial paralysis in his face — it turns out RHS is a known vaccine side effect. [...] However, this wouldn't be the only time doctors diagnosed someone with RHS following inoculation with the COVID vaccine.  According to a report published in the BMJ Postgraduate Medical Journal, "We recently diagnosed Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS) in a 37-year-old previously healthy man.  Two days after his first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2) vaccine, he noticed fever and a pain in the right ear.  Vesicles were then developed in his right ear and canal, together with vertigo, tinnitus and loss of hearing."  "He complained of facial palsy, tongue numbness and dysgeusia.  On examination, he had grade 4 right facial nerve palsy of the lower motor neuron type with right sensorineural hearing loss."

How Secret Soviet Killings Led to COVID Tyranny.  [Scroll down]  The world first became aware of China's bioweapons capabilities in 2005, when it offered assistance to Iran's bioweapons program.  Now, with at least fifteen identified facilities, it is believed to have the world's largest and most sophisticated bioweapons capability.  Five months before the COVID outbreak, the Pentagon had warned that China had a vast chemical- and bio-warfare program.  The outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever and COVID have been characterized as inadvertent leaks, but who trusts China?  Or trusts its supreme leader, Xi Jinping, who, like Stalin and Putin, has initiated purges, has ordered genocides (of Falun Gong, Uyghurs, and Tibetans), has murdered dissidents, and won't hesitate to use bioterror?  China's COVID cover-up has included the destruction of forensic samples, the mysterious deaths or disappearances of scientists who exposed the Wuhan lab's work, and an iron control of the narrative.  Xi joins the ranks of the greatest killers and cover-up artists in human history.

You'll Never Escape COVID.  Peer-reviewed publications establish with precision that anywhere from 5 to 80 percent will suffer some form of Long COVID — regardless whether they actually caught the virus or not.  Meanwhile, the media magnify fears over the mystery of Long COVID. [...] But what exactly is Long COVID?  The U.K. report struggled with three different definitions and three different analyses for the condition.  Typical symptoms include difficulty breathing, cognitive decline or "brain fog," chronic fatigue, malaise, headaches, and runny nose.  Yet these things plagued humanity long before the now-vindicated pangolas of Wuhan wet markets unleashed their "never could happen" gain-of-function-in-a-laboratory viral strain on a world bristling with triggers for these symptoms including, of all things, isolation.  Curiously, social stressors such as isolation are linked with inflammation, particularly in the brain, or "neuroinflammation."

Andrew Giuliani banned from GOP debate at WCBS studio over refusal to provide vax proof.  New York gubernatorial hopeful Andrew Giuliani said he's been banned from appearing in-person at a Monday debate against his GOP primary opponents because he's refused to provide proof he's vaccinated against COVID-19.  Giuliani, 36, announced he would hold a press conference Sunday morning to "protest vaccine mandates that continue to discriminate against first responders and healthcare workers," according to a news release.  Giuliani has previously touted that he was unvaccinated, but his announcement on Saturday said only he refused to provide proof of his status.

The Subordinate Citizen.  I recently led a group of about 100 citizens to tour Israel for nearly two weeks.  Before returning to the United States, all participants had to indicate their vaccination status and take a COVID-19 test for reentry.  Anxieties swept the group as Israeli testers swabbed them.  Anyone testing positive would have to delay his or her return.  That quarantine would entail spending thousands of dollars in finding scarce hotel accommodations, additional living expenses, and rebooked airline tickets — depending upon the length of the mandatory sequestration.  Contrast the tens of thousands of foreign nationals now mustering to cross illegally into the United States again this summer.  They follow the already 2 million who have entered the country unlawfully since Joe Biden became president.  Does any foreign national worry about being tested for COVID-19, much less fear being turned away if he tests positive or for lack of proof of vaccination?  Or do we scrutinize far more carefully U.S. citizens entering legally their own country than we do noncitizens crossing our borders unlawfully?

CDC Foundation is not a government entity and has many conflicts of interest.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") is an advertising agency for pharmaceutical companies.  That may come off as some grandiose pronouncement meant to gather clicks and attention.  But the agency does what it is supposed to do — promote and advance the interests of its stakeholders.  There is nothing impartial, objective, or neutral about the CDC and its sister agency, the National Institutes of Health ("NIH").  Doctors and scientists who have dedicated their entire existence to medicine and saving lives are being decertified, censored, and discredited by the CDC for presenting peer-reviewed evidence that is contrary to the COVID-19 agenda.  Media that do not tow the doomsday COVID narrative are also censored.  Search "The COVID Blog" and "COVID Legal USA" without quotes in any search engine besides Google.  We come up first or second.  Now do Google.  The censorship is blatant and obvious.

Sudden Adult Death Syndrome is the new name for vaccine deaths in the medical establishment's play-pretend reality.  In an attempt to explain away the rash of deaths occurring in otherwise healthy-seeming adults who got "vaccinated" for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), the medical establishment has coined a new term called "Sudden Adult Death Syndrome," or SADS, that it is pretending appeared out of nowhere with no explanation.  Much like Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), which was also made up out of thin air to explain away infant deaths caused by vaccines, SADS is being called a "mystery" condition that could strike anyone at any time for no apparent reason.  People under the age of 40 are now being told to go to their doctors immediately to have their hearts checked, as they might have a hidden case of SADS.  The condition could be fatal, we are told, and is an "umbrella term to describe unexpected deaths in young people," according to The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.

The Editor says...
The first symptom is a stabbing pain in your upper arm, followed by a booster five months later.

Why America Doesn't Trust the CDC.  People don't trust the CDC. Here's one example illustrating why.  Two weeks ago, with no outcomes data on COVID-19 booster shots for 5-to-11-year-olds, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) vigorously recommended the booster for all 24 million American children in that age group.  The CDC cited a small Pfizer study of 140 children that showed boosters elevated their antibody levels — an outcome known to be transitory.  When that study concluded, a Pfizer spokesperson said it did not determine the efficacy of the booster in the 5-to-11-year-olds.  But that didn't matter to the CDC.  Seemingly hoping for a different answer, the agency put the matter before its own kangaroo court of curated experts, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).  I listened to the meeting, and couldn't believe what I heard.  At times, the committee members sounded like a group of marketing executives.

Justin Bieber Announces He Is Suffering From Rare Partial Facial Paralysis Disorder.  Justin Bieber on Friday revealed to fans that the reason behind him postponing several shows of his 2022 "Justice World Tour" is due to a rare syndrome that caused paralysis on one side of his face.  In a video Bieber uploaded to Instagram, the 28-year-old singer explained that he has Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which causes facial paralysis and affects nerves in the face through a shingles outbreak.

Why I'm 99% certain that Justin Bieber's facial paralysis was caused by the COVID vaccine.  The VAERS data shows that Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (RHS) is 160 times more likely after a COVID vaccination than for all the other vaccines combined in any given year.  And if you exclude the anthrax vaccine from that comparison, the likelihood is simply too high to calculate (0 cases in 32 years).  So the COVID vaccine should definitely be considered as a possible cause for this rare disease.  I show below that the estimated rate of RHS after COVID vaccination is 338 cases per 100,000. The medical literature says it occurs naturally in 5 cases per 100,000.  Therefore, it is 99% likely that Justin's RHS was caused by the vaccine, and only 1% chance that he got "unlucky."  Sadly, it's unlikely Bieber's doctors will ever acknowledge that so it's unlikely he'll get the care he needs (treat both the RHS and the vaccine injury).  He'll simply assume he is just unlucky.  The mainstream press isn't doing its job if they don't report this (which they won't).

Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche:  Covid Infection, Disease to Aggravate in Vaccinated.  The mass vaccination campaign against Covid has been a "blunder of unprecedented scale" that would likely result in "a global catastrophe without equal," warned world-class Belgian scientist Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche at the beginning of the vaccines' rollout.  In this interview with The New American, Dr. Vanden Bossche described why mass vaccination with "leaky" vaccines could not lead to herd immunity, and why he expected the emergence of the "super variants" of Covid that would be resistant to all current and future Covid vaccines.  The doctor argued that if the mass vaccination if not stopped and if the large-scale antiviral program is not implemented, it would be most probable that the current pattern of repetitive infections and relatively mild disease in the vaccinated would soon aggravate and be replaced by severe disease and death.

All The Bad Things Pfizer Knew But Tried To Hide For 75 Years.  Dr. Naomi Wolf goes over what her team found about the vaccine from the Pfizer document dump.  Remember that Pfizer never wanted you to know this information, they fought in court to keep it hidden for 75 years.  [Video clip]

Moderna: Over 1,000 Heart Inflammation Cases in Those Under 40 Following COVID-19 Vaccination.  Over 1,000 cases of heart inflammation have been detected in recipients of Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine who are under 40 years old, the biotechnology company said on June 10.  Myocarditis, a type of heart inflammation, has been most prevalent following vaccination in males 18 to 24 years old, according to the company.  In a document (pdf) filed before upcoming meetings with U.S. regulators and an advisory panel, Moderna said 42.6 cases of myocarditis have appeared per million second doses administered to males in that age group across the world.  Overall, approximately 1,076 cases have been recorded in people aged 12 to 39, according to the document, which cited Moderna's safety reports as its source.  Through April 15, an estimated 160 million doses of Moderna's vaccine have been administered to people under 40.

Study: Pfizer Vaccine Increases Myocarditis Threefold.  As the mass administration of COVID-19 jabs continues, we're now seeing some of the more common side effects emerging.  Myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle, is among them.  This condition can cause symptoms similar to a heart attack, including chest pain, shortness of breath, abnormal heartbeat and fatigue.  A large study from Israel revealed that the Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA jab is associated with a threefold increased risk of myocarditis, leading to the condition at a rate of one to five excess events per 100,000 persons.  Other elevated risks were also identified following the COVID jab, including lymphadenopathy (swollen lymph nodes), appendicitis and herpes zoster infection.

If You're Reading This Message, You're Ready to Resist Tyranny.  Many people who would prefer to be left alone to live their lives free from government interference have an understandable sense of impending doom.  The COVID Crisis showed Westerners how quickly (and easily) their governments would impose unilateral mandates against their will, destroying any illusion that self-congratulating "democracies" have any more respect for individual rights or bodily autonomy than the authoritarian regimes the West routinely condemns.  If an unsuspecting citizen once took "freedom" for granted, forced experimental injections, arbitrary and capricious closures of private businesses, mass surveillance, vaccine passports, and government-sponsored censorship of dissenting medical opinion have demonstrated how rapidly undefended freedom slips away.  Westerners were not prepared to take a vigorous stand for freedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom of conscience, or personal privacy.  Their silence was interpreted as acquiescence to government control and rewarded with only more intrusive and authoritarian measures. [...] Center for Disease Control bureaucrats are already defending their unconstitutional pandemic powers as necessary tools that should be permanently "institutionalized."

Healthy young people dying from Sudden Adult Death Syndrome.  Young people with a particular family history are being urged to get their hearts screened even if they are fit and healthy, as they could be at risk of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome.  Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, or Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (SADS), is an "umbrella term to describe unexpected deaths in young people", usually under 40, when a post-mortem can find no obvious cause of death, according to the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP).  While national figures are not available, Melbourne's Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute is developing the country's first SADS registry, which it hopes to eventually roll out across the country.  "In our registry, there are approximately 750 cases per year of people aged under 50 in Victoria suddenly having their heart stop (a cardiac arrest)," a spokeswoman said.  "Of these, approximately 100 young people per year will have no cause found even after extensive investigations such as a full autopsy (the SADS phenomenon)."

Healthy young people are dying suddenly and unexpectedly from a mysterious syndrome.  People aged under 40 are being urged to have their hearts checked because they may potentially be at risk of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome.  The syndrome, known as SADS, has been fatal for all kinds of people regardless of whether they maintain a fit and healthy lifestyle.  SADS is an 'umbrella term to describe unexpected deaths in young people', said The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, most commonly occurring in people under 40 years of age.

Members of Congress Demand Answers.  Eighteen sitting Congressional members wrote a strong letter to the FDA demanding answers prior to the decision by regulators to approve COVID-19 vaccines for babies and young children aged 6 months to 4 years old.  The FDA VRBPAC advisory panel is scheduled to meet on June 15 to discuss authorization and this letter addresses the fact that there are questions and facts that the FDA must consider prior to EUA authorization.  The letter clearly states that COVID-19 poses little risk to babies and young children, that the vaccines have little effectiveness against new variants, that there are many unanswered questions about the safety of the vaccines and that there is evidence of significant adverse events.  Therefore, the lawmakers queried the FDA panel as to why these vaccines are necessary for this age cohort.

COVID jab side effects are like a 'nuclear bomb': US pathologist.  An American pathologist says that the potential side effects from the COVID jab were like a "nuclear bomb," due to the "platform of lipid nanoparticle" technology that "has never been proven before."  Dr. Ryan Cole sat down with Bright Light News during the World Council for Health Better Way Conference on June 4 and gave his medical opinion on the dangers that he has witnessed in the wake of the COVID jab rollout.  "Everybody hears about myocarditis," he said.  "What they don't hear is that a lipid nanoparticle plus a modified gene sequence is a nuclear bomb."  "It's not just that this COVID shot is dangerous for people, it's this platform of lipid nanoparticle plus gene sequence that has never been proven before."  Cole likened the lipid nanoparticle platform to "garlic, once you stick it in the arm it goes anywhere in the body."  Because of this, "it can damage the brain," he added.  [Video clip]

Globalist elites beg for 'trust' despite an 'unending stream' of COVID lies and 'massive' censorship.  In a May 17 press conference some have called Orwellian, representatives from globalist institutions insisted that the COVID crisis is "anything but over," demanded higher levels of "risk management" compliance from every nation, a "seamless" implementation of globalist decisions in health systems, and even more censorship of "conspiracy theories" from Big Tech corporations.  The occasion was a document release from the International Science Council (ISC) titled "Unprecedented and Unfinished:  COVID-19 and Implications for National and Global Policy."  The organization's president, Dr. Peter Gluckman, explained the purpose of the project was to contest the notion that experimental gene-based vaccines in some way would end the COVID crisis allowing nations to "return to some form of normality."  But this "clearly was not going to be the case," he exclaimed.

New film argues WHO engaged in 'population control experiment' under the guise of a vaccination program.  Children's Health Defense (CHD) has collaborated with British filmmaker and activist Dr. Andy Wakefield and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to deliver a new film that sets out to prove the World Health Organization (WHO) engaged in a "population control experiment" "carried out under the guise of a vaccination program" and resulted "in the sterilization of women in Africa without their knowledge or consent."  According to a press release issued by CHD, the 30-minute film entitled "Infertility:  A Diabolical Agenda," will premiere on Friday, June 10 at 2 p.m. ET on CHD.TV[.]

Study: Face masks contributed to high COVID-19 death rates.  A bombshell report shared by Dr. Simone Gold, founder of the American Frontline Doctors, revealed that face masks contributed to high Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) case fatality rates.  "People are still not aware that wearing face masks do not protect them from viruses and are actually harmful," Gold disclosed citing the report as proof.  The observational study titled "The Foegen Effect:  A Mechanism by Which Facemasks Contribute to the COVID-19 Case Fatality Rate," authored by German doctor Zacharias Fögen, was published in the journal Medicine in February.  The study examined "whether mandatory mask use influenced the case fatality rate in Kansas" from August 1 to October 15, 2020.  Kansas was used for comparison because the state allowed each of its 105 counties to decide whether or not to implement mask mandates.  Eighty-one counties decided against the measure.

The dystopian state of our nation.  [Scroll down]  Fear-mongering is their number-one tool; the media, electronic and social, are completely on board.  Fomenting crime, unnecessary COVID mandates, lockdowns, calculated supply chain shortages, the doubling of gas prices, etc. — all these are part of their program to disrupt and destroy what was once the greatest nation on the planet.  Despite the seeming randomness of what is happening, it's all part of their plan:  wreck America as founded, and reconstitute it as their oligarchic playground.

Doctors Suing Food and Drug Administration Over Ivermectin.  A Washington law firm has filed a federal lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for interfering with the use of ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19.  The lawsuit was filed by Boyden Gray & Associates on behalf of three doctors who were disciplined for prescribing human-grade ivermectin to patients.  The firm's founder, attorney Boyden Gray, is a former legal adviser to the Reagan and Bush administrations.  Gray told The Epoch Times that the FDA had violated well-established law that allows doctors to prescribe an FDA-approved drug as an off-label treatment.  Ivermectin was no different, he said.  It was approved by the FDA in 1966.  "Congress recognized the importance of letting doctors be doctors and expressly prohibited the FDA from interfering with the practice of medicine," Gray said.

Pfizer knew in May of 2021 that 35 minors' hearts had been damaged after MRNA injection — but the FDA rolled out the EUA for teens a month later anyway.  [Thread reader]  In the most recent #pfizer dump, there are 6 entries where the "withdrawal reason" was death. [...] "A Pfizer document reveals between 82-97% of pregnant women lost their babies.  45% of the 270 pregnant mothers reported adverse clinical events, and more than 60% of these were serious."

Court Ordered Release of Pfizer Document Reveals 82% — 97% of Vaccinated Pregnant Women Lost their Babies.  A recently released confidential document reveals that a startling majority of in utero babies died after pregnant women were injected with the Pfizer vaccine.  Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency (PHMPT) requested documents related to vaccine licensing via a Freedom of Information Act Request, then sued the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  In early January 2022, a federal judge ordered the FDA incrementally release the documents it claimed would take decades to process.  PHMPT has posted Pfizer's confidential documents as they have become available.  In the most recent release, on May 2, 2022, a document titled 'reissue_5.3.6 postmarketing experience.pdf' disclosed on page 12 that by February 8, 2021, 270 women had received the mRNA injection during pregnancy.  But 238 cases were apparently not followed ("no outcome provided").  And, therefore, the pregnancy outcomes for those women are unknown.

Pfizer knew their vaccine would kill.  The documents were first leaked in a cyber attack on the European Medicines Agency website.  More than 40 megabytes of classified information from the agency's review were published on the dark web, and several journalists including those at the British Medical Journal were sent copies of the leak.  In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration had previously agreed to withhold the documents and their jaw-dropping revelations from the public for 75 years, until Texas District Judge Mark Pittman ordered their release within eight months, stating it was 'of paramount public importance'.  Most alarmingly of all, the documents show that in the trials there were at least 1,223 deaths reported in the first 28 days after injection.

Joseph Ladapo openly questions safety of COVID-19 vaccines.  Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo on Friday made some of his strongest statements yet against receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.  Delivered at a press conference announcing an agreement with the Special Olympics to lift a vaccine mandate, the Florida Department of Health leader went much further.  He called into question the efficacy of COVID-19 shots and whether they are even safe to use.  "People will say oh, you know, millions of people have taken these vaccines, they must be safe," he said.  "Well, you can't know the answer to that when it is taboo to talk about having a reaction after vaccines."  Citing only anecdotal evidence, he suggested the vaccine has produced more side effects than others such as flu shots.

Importing COVID: Biden administration releases 7,000 COVID-infected illegal border crossers into McAllen, Texas.  So much for Title 42, the court-reinforced order to keep illegal border crossers out of the U.S. to protect the public here during the pandemic.  Actually, they're letting them in ... and letting them in.  There's no limit. [...] According to City-Data, McAllen, Texas has a population of 143,000 and is Texas's 22nd-largest city.  Adding 1,400 people with COVID into a population of that size in one week is [...] a lot of COVID to get spreading.  Ostensibly, these migrants are a "humanitarian exception" to the Title 42 sendbacks — single moms with small children, and unaccompanied minors, most of whom are single MS-13-aged young men.  The problem here is that they spread COVID as much as the single adults and families with older children who are being sent back.  There's no exception with COVID, whether it comes from a single mom with four kids in tow or a single adult male without kids.

Special Olympics Drops Covid-19 Vaccine Requirement After Florida Threatens $27.5 Million Fine.  The Special Olympics, which is scheduled to hold its 2022 USA Games in Orlando, Florida, from June 5 through 12, had a Covid-19 vaccination requirement for its participating athletes.  That's "had," until the Florida Department of Health threatened Special Olympics International with a $27.5 million fine via a June 2 letter.  Why would the Sunshine State fine the world's largest sports organization for those with intellectual or physical disabilities a sunny $27.5 million?  Well, the oh-so-fine letter claimed that the Special Olympics requesting proof of vaccination was in "violation of Florida law."  The letter indicated that "Section 381.00316(1) Florida Statutes, prohibits a business entity, which includes a charitable organization, from requiring any patron or customer certifying Covid-19 vaccination or post-infection recovery to gain access to, entry upon, or service from the business entity."

Dogs can detect Covid with high accuracy, even asymptomatic cases.  Questions about whether dogs can sniff out Covid — and how well — have intrigued researchers since early in the pandemic.  A study published Wednesday in the journal Plos One offers further evidence that dogs can indeed be trained to detect Covid.  The dogs tested in the research accurately identified 97 percent of positive cases after sniffing human sweat samples.  That made them more sensitive than some rapid antigen tests.  The samples were collected at community centers in Paris from a mix of symptomatic and asymptomatic cases, as well as healthy people without Covid.  The researchers found the dogs to be especially good at detecting asymptomatic infections, with a sensitivity nearing 100 percent.

They've officially forbidden the practice of medicine in Ontario, Canada.  Dr. Ira Bernstein who practices medicine in Ontario, Canada is about to have his license to practice medicine revoked soon. [...] In 2.5 years of COVID, he's never lost a patient to COVID.  None of his patients complained.  None of his patients were hospitalized or died from COVID.  Nobody was harmed.  So no revenue for the hospitals.  What was his crime?  He didn't toe the line and treat COVID patients like the College thinks they should be treated.  The message to physicians in Canada is clear:  you either treat COVID patients using methods approved by the medical authorities or they'll take away your livelihood for the rest of your life.  If this type of authoritarian medicine can happen in Canada, it can happen everywhere else in the world.  No Canadian physicians are coming to Dr. Bernstein's defense publicly because doing so would jeopardize their license.  Who is behind this?  The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario.

Doctors Sue FDA Over Unlawful Attempts to Prohibit Ivermectin Use.  Today [6/2/2022], a group of doctors represented by Boyden Gray & Associates PLLC filed a lawsuit against the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra in his official capacity as Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Food and Drug Administration, and Robert M. Califf in his official capacity as Commissioner of Food and Drugs, over the FDA's unlawful attempts to prohibit the use of ivermectin to treat COVID-19.  The plaintiffs, Drs. Robert L. Apter, Mary Talley Bowden, and Paul E. Marik argue the FDA acted outside of its authority and illegally interfered with their ability to practice medicine by directing the public, including health professionals and patients, to not use ivermectin, a drug that has received full FDA approval for human use.

"It's more of a matter of principle of where the authority lies"
Fauci Openly Admits Biden Mask Mandate Is About Preserving "Authority".  Appearing on Fox News Wednesday [6/1/2022], Anthony Fauci appeared to admit that the Biden administration's efforts to reinstate mask mandates on planes and trains is about preserving "authority" over public health decisions, not about keeping people safe.  Earlier in the week, the Justice Department asked an appeals court to overturn a federal judge's order that mask mandates were unlawful.  As we noted in April, Joe Biden's CDC extended mask mandates for Americans on planes and public transport, while the administration sought to simultaneously end all COVID restrictions for migrants crossing illegally into the United States.

FLCCC launches Post-Vaccine Syndrome Protocol.  Dr. Paul Marik and Dr. Pierre Kory are happy to introduce the new I-RECOVER: Post-Vaccine Treatment protocol, designed to help people who have experienced adverse symptoms after a COVID vaccine.  [Video clip]

The FDA's proposed "Future Framework" is the worst idea in the history of public health.  Pfizer and Moderna have a problem — their Covid-19 shots do NOT work.  Everyone knows this.  The shots do not stop infection, transmission, hospitalization, nor death.  Over half a billion doses of this product have been injected into Americans in the past 17 months and these shots have made NO discernible impact on the course of the pandemic.  Far more Americans have died of coronavirus since the introduction of the shots than before they were introduced.  Pfizer and Moderna are making $50 billion a year on these shots and they want that to continue.  So they need to reformulate the shots.  Maybe target a new variant, maybe change some of the ingredients — who knows, these shots don't work so it's not clear what it will take to get them to work.  This is a problem because reformulated shots mean new clinical trials and new regulatory review by the FDA. There is a decent chance that any reformulated shot might fail a new clinical trial and the public is deeply skeptical of these shots so the scrutiny would be intense.  So Pfizer and Moderna have figured out a way to use regulatory capture to get their reformulated Covid-19 shots approved WITHOUT further clinical trials.

The Pfizer Inoculations for Covid-19: More Harm Than Good.  The federal, provincial and municipal governments in Canada have a responsibility to protect the health of Canadians as well as our Charter Rights and Freedoms.  Any medical interventions approved by Health Canada must first be proven safe.  Due diligence in research, as well as adherence to established protocols of the doctor/patient relationship, informed consent and scientific inquiry are essential to carrying out that responsibility.  Deviating from those practices, causing harm and failing to disclose risks of harm is negligent at best.

New study links COVID vaccines to 25% increase in cardiac arrest for both males & females.  A new study by Israeli researchers and published in Nature has revealed an increase of over 25 percent in cardiovascular-related emergency calls in the young-adult population, following the rollout of COVID vaccines, among both males and females.  No similar increase was found due to COVID infection alone.  Israel health authorities and the U.S. Centers of Disease Control (CDC) have acknowledged a link between COVID vaccines and specific cardiovascular complications.  The risk of myocarditis after receiving a second vaccine dose is now estimated to be between 1 in 3000 to 1 in 6000 in men aged 16 to 24.  Recent articles in scientific journals, however, have sought to suggest that cardiovascular complications following COVID infection are more common than those following vaccination.  This assertion is contradicted by the findings from a recent study conducted by Israeli researchers, using data from Israel National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) related to "cardiac arrest and acute coronary syndrome EMS calls in the 16 [to] 39-year-old population" between 2019 and 2021.  This enabled them to compare baseline (pre-COVID epidemic) to COVID epidemic without vaccines, to COVID epidemic following widespread vaccine takeup.

Latest CDC Data Shows Covid-19 Infections [are] Higher in Boosted Americans Compared to Unboosted.  The latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed that breakthrough Covid-19 infections in April was worse in boosted Americans compared to the vaccinated but not boosted.  According to the data analyzed by far-left CBS, the week of April 23 showed that boosted Americans are catching COVID-19 at nearly double the rate of those who have not been boosted.  But claimed the unvaccinated remain the highest group.  The unvaccinated rate is a bit misleading as CDC includes those with 1 dose and even 2 doses under 14 days.  In the UK, they separate those with zero doses from those who received the vaccination.

Stopping 'Quarantine Camps' in New York State.  Imagine a land where the government has the power to lock you up because the unelected bureaucrats in the Health Department think that you might, possibly have a communicable disease.  They don't have to prove you are sick.  They don't have to prove you are a health threat to others.  They just need to think that, maybe, you were possibly exposed to a disease.  And when I say "lock people up," I mean lock you in your home or force you from your home into a facility, detention center, camp (pick your noun) that they get to choose and you must stay there for however long they want.  No time limit; so it could be for days, weeks, months, or years.  Now imagine that there is no age restriction, so the government can do this to you personally, or to your child, or to your grandchild, or to your elderly parent, or to your ailing grandparent. [...] And yet, the governor of New York and her Department of Health have promulgated a dystopian regulation that does all of that and more.  The regulation is called "Isolation and Quarantine Procedures" and can be found at 10 NYCRR 2.13.  It is a clear violation of the Separation of Powers because the governor is not supposed to make law, nor can an agency.

DMED Data Reveals Incredibly Disturbing Spikes in Vaccine Injuries Across the Board.  Attorney Tom Renz made worldwide headlines after disclosing explosive data from the Department of Defense DMED database at Senator Ron Johnson's Second Opinion Hearing.  DMED is the official database of the 1.4M active duty DoD servicemen.  The data, obtained by three courageous DoD whistleblowers, from the DMED showed shocking increases in medical conditions from the mRNA "vaccines" after the military demanded injections for all service members:

Video: Something Weird Is Going On With Pfizer CEO's Neck Again — He Acts Like A Frog.  It's been almost two years since Pfizer and European drug company BioNTech said early data suggests the vaccine could be more than 90% effective.  It was big news to kick off the week and it led to an immediate 15% surge in the company's share price[.]  And yet, that same day, Pfizer's CEO Albert Bourla filed to sell millions of dollars of his company's stock, coincidentally profiting from this historic announcement.  Indeed, Bourla sold 132,508 Pfizer shares at a price of $41.94, raking in $5.6 million.  And another Pfizer insider, Executive Vice President Sally Susman, sold 43,662 shares at the same $41.94 price that Bourla sold at, netting more than $1.8 million.  Both said these sales were part of a pre-arranged plan.

The Wuhan lab leak theory reappraised.  Bipartisan investigations are a rarity in Washington, D.C.  The constituencies likely to be affected or to suffer collateral damage are usually enough to derail them from gaining momentum.  Affix the term "disinformation" to the claim in need of investigation and the chances of a genuine inquiry plummet from hardly ever to "forget about it."  Such is the current trajectory of the need to explore the origin of COVID-19.  We now know that intelligence officials and top diplomats studied the issue in the Spring of 2020 and concluded that the virus "most likely" came from a lab.  In keeping with their history of suppressing any news that could potentially be damaging to the regime, the Chinese have stridently opposed entertaining the question.  We also know from public records that many of the world's top scientists, including those from our nation's own health agencies, went to extremes to prevent the question from being asked early on in the pandemic, with help from media and tech firms.

The Sovietization of American Life.  Entire professions have now nearly been lost to radical progressive ideology. [...] What about the Stanford doctors who signed a groupthink letter attacking their former colleague, Dr. Scott Atlas, because he questioned the orthodoxies of Dr. Anthony Fauci and the state bureaucracies — who we now know hid their own involvement with channeling funding to deadly gain-of-function research in Wuhan?  Did they reject his views on empirical grounds and welcome a give-and-take shared inquiry — or simply wish to silence an ideological outlier and advisor to a despised counterrevolutionary? [...] Or what about the 1,000 medical "professionals" who claimed violating quarantine and protective protocols for Black Lives Matter demonstrations was vital for the mental health of the protestors?

New Study:  Mask Mandates Associated With Increased Covid Death Rate.  A bombshell new medical journal report comparing Covid-19 fatality rates across Kansas counties during the height of the pandemic alleged that mask mandates could be associated with higher death rates from the virus. [...] The paper went on to theorize that the so-called "Foegen effect," whereby hypercondensed droplets caught by masks are re-inhaled and introduced deeper into the respiratory tract, could be responsible for the increased mortality rate.  The possibility was echoed by Dr. Aaron Kheriaty while discussing the study during a Saturday night appearance on Fox News' "Unfiltered" with Dan Bongino:  "There is emerging evidence, a study out of Kansas recently that suggested that the case fatality rate with Covid is higher where there are mask mandates," Kheriaty said.  "Once you get infected, if you are wearing a mask, this study suggested that your chance of having a bad outcome, of dying from Covid was higher.  And that probably has to do with rebreathing these kind of condensed droplets that have a lot of virus in them."

Fauci Rips Trump and Republicans During Commencement Speech at NYC College.  Fauci has crossed the line from public servant to partisan figure.  He needs to step out of the spotlight.

Fauci rips into Trump, GOP during commencement speech at NYC college.  Dr. Anthony Fauci took a barely veiled swipe at former President Donald Trump and Republicans during a college commencement speech Friday — just two days after claiming he wouldn't "get involved in any politics" related to the 2024 election.  Speaking to more than 3,700 graduates of the City College of New York in Harlem, Fauci said, "It is blatantly obvious that we are experiencing a deepening divisiveness in our nation, fed by a flagrant devaluation of the truth."  "While genuine differences of opinion or ideology are part of a healthy society, increasingly we are hearing, reading and seeing outlandish statements and pronouncements propped up by deliberate distortions of reality," he said during his keynote address.  "Fabrications, conspiracy theories and outright lies are becoming commonplace from radical fringe groups as well as from people who you would hope would know better — and you know who they are."

Monkeypox, Hepatitis & Covid-19: Public Health has been Hijacked & the Mainstream Media are lying to you.  Anyone who honestly believes that this is simply because we've gone from having a "dangerous" respiratory virus circulating around the world to having a "dangerous" zoonosis virus circulating around the world has quite frankly been watching too much BBC News and not done their homework.  The truth is there is nothing simple about it, and the reasons authorities with the help of the mainstream media have gone from spreading fear and propaganda around an alleged virus with a fatality rate of less than 0.2%, to spreading fear and propaganda around an alleged virus that has rarely been seen outside of Africa in 50 years are multi-faceted, sinister, and unbelievable without the context and evidence to support them.  If you believe in germ theory and the mainstream narrative on the existence and behaviour of viruses then you will likely question whether the Covid-19 virus was leaked from a lab, namely the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  There is plenty of evidence out there to support this, including evidence that suggests the pharmaceutical giant Moderna had a major role to play in that.  So would it surprise you to know that there is now emerging evidence that if this circulating monkeypox virus even exists, it too was manipulated and leaked from a bio-lab?

Scientists Fight Back.  SARS-CoV-2 started in Wuhan in late 2019.  After several waves swept through the world and left millions of people dead, the world is now entering the endemic phase. [...] The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) governs China by controlling every aspect of people's lives.  When SARS-CoV-2 emerged in Wuhan in December 2019, the CCP was in a celebratory mood.  It planned to showcase its economic achievements and celebrate the Chinese New Year with huge banquets.  No virus should have dared to come to spoil the party.  Therefore, the CCP silenced those people sounding the alarm.  Then, when they found out that the virus was spreading and killing many, in order to show the world that they were powerful and capable of controlling viral spread, they implemented a draconian lockdown in Wuhan.  The CCP then intentionally allowed the spread of the virus to the rest of the world by continuing international flights out of Wuhan while cancelling domestic flights.  In this way, the CCP protected itself while infecting other countries.  As a result, the rest of the world suffered huge losses while China enjoyed zero-COVID for most of 2020 and 2021.

Arizona Mother Sentenced to 5 Days in Jail After Questioning School's COVID Rules.  An Arizona mother who has been sentenced to five days in jail for questioning Covid policies she called unconstitutional while at her daughter's school is speaking out about her sentence.  Jennifer Majuta, a mother to a 16-year-old daughter, was arrested in August of last year at Walden Grove High School, just outside of Tucson, and charged with a class 3 misdemeanour for allegedly trespassing on school property.

Judicial Watch Uncovers Dozens of Records of Illegal Molecular Research Reported to NIH.  Judicial Watch announced today that it received 2369 pages of records from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) revealing over two dozen cases where research involving recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid (r/sNA) molecules was conducted in America without proper approval and in violation of NIH guidelines.  Recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid (r/sNA) molecules are constructed outside of living cells.  The molecules are made by joining DNA or RNA segments (natural or synthetic) to DNA or RNA molecules that can replicate within a living cell.  They may also result from replication of previously constructed recombinant molecules.

COVID vaccines:  When will enough be enough?  AT recently published an article by physician Joseph Shepherd, who succinctly summarized how the COVID vaccines kill.  Aside from all the well-documented adverse effects and deaths from the vaccines, by now it should be obvious to the casual observer that the COVID boosters don't protect against contracting or transmitting omicron or the sub-variants.  Yet some of us still proudly announce our double-boosted status.  Given how blessedly minimal the effects of the virus on children have been in the aggregate, and given what we now know about the adverse effects of the vaccines on the vascular, coronary, neurological, and immune systems, one might be forgiven for regarding the vaccination of young children as borderline criminal.  Yet Pfizer, not content with getting the green light to vaccinate children from ages 5 to 12, now wants to jab children under 5 with three doses.  The company claims that "three doses of the shot were 80% effective at preventing symptomatic COVID-19 and generated a robust immune response in children ages 6 months to 5 years old."  Only 80%?  What happened to the 93+% efficacies we heard so much about?

Novavax stock tumbles after FDA brief on its COVID vaccine.  Novavax stock lost a quarter of its value Friday [5/3/2022] after a Food and Drug Administration brief ahead of its COVID-19 vaccine's review next week raised concerns.  "Data from passive surveillance during post-authorization use in other countries indicate a higher-than-expected rate of myocarditis and pericarditis associated with the vaccine," the briefing document noted.  "However, interpretation of these passive surveillance data is not straightforward, and further evaluation is need to inform the risk associated with the vaccine, and their outcomes, as additional data emerge over time."

Fauci's Animal Testing Shielded by Censorship and Disinformation.  For the past two years, government animal testing has been at the center of the free speech debate that's reached a boiling point in the United States.  Big Tech and Big Media companies have weaponized "fact checks," sensitive content warnings, and advertising bans to muzzle us and cast doubt on our findings — even when our investigations are demonstrably and self-evidently true.  The common theme in all the censored content: daring to criticize Anthony Fauci, which constitutes a Silicon Valley thought-crime.  Several months ago, WCW released an exposé on the monkeys of Morgan Island, South Carolina, also known as "Monkey Island."  Thousands of primates roam the island, but this is no tropical paradise:  the monkeys are property of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Fauci's division of the National Institutes of Health.  Documents we obtained through the Freedom of Information Act show that every year, hundreds of victims are snatched from the island, then shipped to government animal labs and infected with Ebola, COVID, HIV, and then killed.

Shocking Pfizer Document Reveals 82% of Vaccinated Pregnant Women Suffered Miscarriages.  A recently released confidential document reveals that a startling majority of in utero babies died after pregnant women were injected with the Pfizer vaccine.  Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency (PHMPT) requested documents related to vaccine licensing via a Freedom of Information Act Request, then sued the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  In early January 2022, a federal judge ordered the FDA incrementally release the documents it claimed would take decades to process.  PHMPT has posted Pfizer's confidential documents as they have become available.  In the most recent release, on May 2, 2022, a document titled 'reissue_5.3.6 postmarketing experience.pdf' disclosed on page 12 that by February 8, 2021, 270 women had received the mRNA injection during pregnancy.  But 238 cases were apparently not followed ("no outcome provided").  And, therefore, the pregnancy outcomes for those women are unknown.

Masking: More Harms Than Good?  Extensive evidence in the literature supports the mandatory use of facemasks to reduce the infection rate of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which causes the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).  However, the effect of mask use on the disease course remains controversial.  This study aimed to determine whether mandatory mask use influenced the case fatality rate in Kansas, USA between August 1st and October 15th 2020.  This study applied secondary data on case updates, mask mandates, and demographic status related to Kansas State, USA.  A parallelization analysis based on county-level data was conducted on these data.  Results were controlled by performing multiple sensitivity analyses and a negative control.

Expert Says Fauci Responsible for Hundreds of Thousands of American Deaths by Blocking Hydroxychloroquine.  Dr. Steven Hatfill, infectious disease expert, says the medical bureaucracy blocked an effective treatment in hydroxychloroquine so they could push through experimental vaccines.  Dr. Hatfill told War Room hydroxychloroquine is proven to be effective and costs roughly 60 cents per pill.  However, the existence of a proven effective treatment would not have allowed Dr. Fauci and FDA's Janet Woodcock to expedite covid vaccines.  "You don't need a vaccine," Dr. Hatfill said.  "It's quite evident that Dr. Fauci, Dr. Woodcock, Dr. [Rick] Bright are responsible for hundreds of thousands of America deaths for causing this drug to pick up a bad name," Dr. Hatfill said.  [Video clip]

Universities reinstate mask mandates around the country.  As the school year draws to an end, American universities around the country are reinstating mask mandates.  The University of California Los Angeles sent out an email to its students on May 26, stating that its mask mandate "will go back into effect beginning Friday, May 27 and remain in place through Wednesday, June 15."  Not all students are on board with the policy change, however.  "We are already one of the strictest schools with COVID; not only do we have to be vaccinated and boosted, but we also have to be tested weekly and fill out a symptom monitoring survey," said Stella Foreman, a freshman at the university.

The Story of COVID Cries Out for Common Sense.  [Scroll down]  I'd been raised by God-fearing parents to have a healthy skepticism of the media and government.  But nothing prepared me for the lies and manipulations that became the story of COVID.  Stories are the most powerful force we have, either to solidify beliefs or to change them.  People quickly invested in the official COVID narrative, trusting Anthony Fauci's assertions that only through mindless submission to the rituals of obsessive cleanliness, masking, and lockdowns would people be saved from illness and death.  Even when evidence surfaced to the contrary, people still clung to their newfound faith.  From my vantage in Luxor, I was able to see the big picture without being engulfed in it.  I noticed how every story popping into my newsfeed parroted state propaganda.  In the 1980s, I'd lived in Yugoslavia under communism and the coordinated, almost hypnotic repetitiveness of the media was beginning to look eerily familiar.

Biden Justice Department appeals ruling that lifted federal mask mandate.  The Department of Justice has appealed a federal judge's ruling that vacated the federal mask mandate for public transportation.  A filing was made Tuesday [5/31/2022], hours before the deadline and more than a month after the DOJ said it had filed a notice of appeal following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention saying it was requesting the challenge.  "None of the district court's quarrels with the CDC order comes close to showing that the CDC has acted outside the 'zone of reasonableness,'" the Justice Department wrote.

Airlines and FAA face lawsuits over COVID-19 vaccine mandates.  The U.S. Freedom Flyers is rolling out a series of federal lawsuits with the goal of making "vaccine mandate type of rules and COVID restrictions ruled unconstitutional."  The volunteer group of transportation professionals filed its first lawsuit against Atlas Air in the Southern District Court of Florida, claiming that vaccine mandates have infringed on their constitutional, religious, and medical rights.  The lawsuit, filed by attorney John Pierce, listed more than 100 plaintiffs who are mostly unvaccinated pilots, flight attendants, and other Atlas staff.

Covid "vaccine" from AstraZeneca found to increase risk of Guillain-Barré and other neurological conditions.  The Trojan horse delivery system utilized in AstraZeneca's Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccine" appears to be responsible for an increase in rates of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and other neurological problems, new research has revealed.  Scientists from University College London (London's Global University) says cases of GBS in the first two to four weeks following injection with the AstraZeneca shot are on the rise, a phenomenon that is not necessarily being seen with the jabs from Pfizer and Moderna.  While Pfizer and Moderna's shots are made with messenger RNA (mRNA) technology, the AstraZeneca shot uses a more "traditional" viral vector formula containing a weekend chimpanzee virus, the job of which is to deliver the Fauci Flu spike protein into the body.  Experts now believe that this chimp component is responsible for causing GBS, a relatively rare condition demarcated by muscle numbness and pain, as well as difficulty swallowing and sometimes even breathing.

Woolworths employee fired after 10 years for not taking the COVID-19 vaccination.  28 year old Robert Armstrong worked for one of Australia's biggest supermarket chains for 10 years but was fired for not having 2 doses of the experimental COVID-19 vaccination.  Robert went back and forth with emails to management explaining how wrong the situation was trying to force their employee's to get a vaccine to keep their jobs.  "This isn't right people should have a choice."  Woolworths terminated the employment of all their unvaccinated employees three days after Queensland had lifted all the restrictions.  [Video clip]

One Way Government.  The disasters of the Biden administration of the past two years have made more and more clear to the average person how all these "experts" do not actually hold any kind of sacred gift for objectivity.  Not only does being educated in, and dedicated to, a particular field not free you from political bias, but it instead guarantees a particular form of bias.  The official response to Covid by many different Western governments provides a perfect example.  Prior to the pandemic, there was no issue experts were more trusted to handle than public health.  If a strange new disease is sweeping the globe, you want the world's best doctors leading the charge.  And so most people happily placed their faith in highly-credentialed bureaucrats to manage the Covid response.  But it wasn't long before people started noticing how the public health establishment's decision seemed to have very little connection to the actual science.  The WHO praised China's management of the disease despite its obvious and repeated lies about the origin and spread of the pathogen; experts in America initially claimed that masks had little to no impact but then spent months advocating for mandatory masking; social distancing was said to be a precaution and people were forced to stay indoors — until the BLM riots in the summer of 2020 when medical experts suddenly claimed mass gatherings had no impact on the spread of the virus, and so on.

Airlines' mask mandates may soon be reinstated.  Those flying in or out of the United States may soon have to put their masks back on, after the Department of Justice filed an appeal of an April decision that ended the unpopular mask mandate on planes and public transit.  The Centers for Disease Control had first implemented the mandate in February 2021 amid rising COVID cases, but as the number of cases started to drastically decline the mandate became unpopular among both passengers and crew members.  In fact, during a Senate hearing about the financial support airlines received in 2020 and 2021, American Airlines CEO Doug Parker and Southwest CEO Gary Kelly spoke out against the mandate.

Covid Update:  What is the truth?  The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the most manipulated infectious disease events in history, characterized by official lies in an unending stream lead by government bureaucracies, medical associations, medical boards, the media, and international agencies.  We have witnessed a long list of unprecedented intrusions into medical practice, including attacks on medical experts, destruction of medical careers among doctors refusing to participate in killing their patients and a massive regimentation of health care, led by non-qualified individuals with enormous wealth, power and influence.  For the first time in American history a president, governors, mayors, hospital administrators and federal bureaucrats are determining medical treatments based not on accurate scientifically based or even experience based information, but rather to force the acceptance of special forms of care and "prevention" — including remdesivir, use of respirators and ultimately a series of essentially untested messenger RNA vaccines.  For the first time in history medical treatment, protocols are not being formulated based on the experience of the physicians treating the largest number of patients successfully, but rather individuals and bureaucracies that have never treated a single patient — including Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates, EcoHealth Alliance, the CDC, WHO, state public health officers and hospital administrators.

Whisteblower's Lawyer:  Pfizer Got Away With Vaccine Fraud Because Government Was Co-Conspirator.  Pfizer has asked a U.S. court to throw out a whistleblower's lawsuit on the basis that the company can't be guilty of fraud, abuse, and protocol violations in its COVID Vaccine clinical trials because its contract with the U.S. government allowed them to skirt regulations and federal laws that typically apply to government contracts.  In other words, Pfizer was allegedly able to make false statements to the government, and lie about the safety and efficacy of its product, "because the government was in on it with them!" according to Robert Barnes, the lead lawyer in the case.  The whistleblower, Brook Jackson, was the regional director for the Ventavia Research Group, the company that was conducting Pfizer's pivotal phase III trial in Texas in 2020.

NYT: Let's face it, the mask mandates don't work.  Do masks prevent transmission of COVID-19?  Yes, reports the New York Times' David Leonhardt — in the laboratory.  In the real world, no data definitively establishes effectiveness of masking, and especially of mask mandates.  The difference matters, Leonhardt warns, because upticks in transmission and hospitalization will likely have policymakers reverting back to mask mandates even though there is no data that shows an impact on either.

Electron microscope images appear to show carbon nanotech, aluminum, thulium in Pfizer and Moderna's covid-19 vaccines.  A Canadian researcher and ER doctor recently put the Pfizer and Moderna covid-19 vaccines under the microscope to see what they are made of.  The electron microscope images show no sign of biological material, not DNA nor the glorified mRNA that the experimental injection was supposed to deliver.  Lead researcher, Dr. Daniel Nagase is a former ER doctor who was persecuted for using ivermectin to treat covid-19 patients in Canada.  On involuntary leave since 2021, Dr. Nagase has been traveling through Alberta and British Columbia to educate others on the treatment options for covid-19.

International study finds COVID jab mandates do more harm than good.  Government mandates that citizens submit to COVID-19 vaccines have negatively impacted personal liberties and welfare, trust in public institutions, and confidence in vaccines more generally, according to a new study conducted by a group of researchers from prestigious medical institutions around the world.  Published in BMJ (British Medical Journal) Global Health, the paper "The unintended consequences of COVID-19 vaccine policy: why mandates, passports and restrictions may cause more harm than good" was written by scientists from Johns Hopkins University, Oxford, Harvard, the University of Washington, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, the University of Toronto, and Dalhousie University in Halifax.

Monkeypox Update: There has been a significant development, says Dr. Robert Malone.  A week ago, Dr. Robert Malone wrote an article stating "what we do know" about monkeypox.  Today he has published an update.  "I almost cannot believe that I am writing this, but since my original Substack article on this topic, we had the reveal of an Event 201-style wargame exercise modelled around a bioterror-related release of an engineered monkeypox virus 'caused by a terrorist attack using a pathogen engineered in a laboratory with inadequate biosafety and biosecurity provisions and weak oversight'," he wrote today.

Media Silent As NIH Study Finds Long COVID Isn't Real.  A new National Institutes of Health (NIH) study is raising questions about "long COVID", suggesting those who claim to be suffering "long COVID" months or even years after Covid infection are likely suffering from anxiety.  The NIH study found that there was no evidence of long-term COVID-19 infection in patients who were six or more weeks removed from the onset of symptoms, even if those patients reported that they were experiencing "long COVID."  Further, the study found that individuals who reported having long COVID were disproportionately women and individuals with history of anxiety disorders.

How the COVID Vaccines Kill.  With each passing day, the news connected to the COVID shots grows worse.  That the injections don't prevent COVID — or even its spread — has been known for months, and post-injection problems encompass almost everything that can go wrong with a body.  "Not a single organ, not a single bodily function, is unharmed" after one of these shots, said Arne Burkhardt, a professor of forensics at Reutlingen's Pathological Institute.  So little has been written about why "side effects" such as myocarditis have popped up that one can't help but wonder:  Does anybody understand how these shots work?

What have we gotten from two years of mask-wearing?  It's truly hard to overstate the damage done to a generation of children by the two-year masking regime.  From language and developmental inhibition to social and behavioral anxiety, these Chinese cloths have created a generation of bumbling fools.  So, was it worth it?  In a preprint published in the Lancet, Ambarish Chandra of the University of Toronto and Tracy Beth Høeg of the University of California at Davis replicated a CDC study comparing counties with school mandates to those without mandates.  However, rather than using the CDC's artificial and arbitrary number of counties and duration of study, they extended the study using a larger sample of districts and a longer time interval, employing almost six times as much data as the original study.  Using this updated method to measure the relationship between mask mandates and per-capita pediatric cases, they found "no significant relationship between mask mandates and case rates."  The study observed over 1,800 counties from July through October 2021, which is presumed to be the largest observational sample ever conducted on the mask issue.

The Mafia Tactic that Brought Down CNN.  [Scroll down]  The right thing to do is always what the State is promoting at the current moment, even when radically incompatible with what the State promoted a day earlier.  So one moment, every American is bound to stay home and Save Lives!  The next moment, Americans are not only permitted, but practically obliged to protest in large numbers against Racial Injustice!  Protesting for any other cause, however, rendered one a depraved "freedumb person."  But "freedom" recovers its status as a foundational moral value (and its traditional spelling) in the context of promoting Ukrainian Freedom!  And so it goes.

We're stuck with COVID on 'chronic' basis, says Fauci.  COVID is here to stay, the country's top infectious disease expert said Sunday.  The persistence of the virus means yearly vaccine booster shots could be in store for everyone, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House chief medical adviser, told PIX 11 in an interview.  "We're going to be dealing with this virus on a chronic basis," Fauci said.  "We really hope ... it will reach a level low enough that it doesn't disrupt us to the extent that it has over the past couple of years."  In recent weeks, COVID case numbers have been increasing nationwide.  Average daily case numbers have risen about 26% around the country, according to Johns Hopkins University.  Average daily case numbers in New York City have nearly doubled, to 4,214 as of Tuesday, according to the Health Department.

On the other hand...
New Study Finds That Long COVID May Not Actually Exist.  A new National Institutes of Health (NIH) study is raising questions about just how real "long COVID" is.  The study found that there was no evidence of long-term COVID-19 infection in patients who were six or more weeks removed from the onset of symptoms, even if those patients reported that they were experiencing "long COVID."  Further, the study found that individuals who reported having long COVID were disproportionately women and individuals with history of anxiety disorders.

The Shameful Six:  Never listen to these people again.  [#2] Dr. Anthony Fauci has been transformed by his insane fans into a secular saint despite having overseen and encouraged a series of utterly disastrous US policies on COVID, from his embrace of useless lockdowns to his backing of the pause on Johnson & Johnson vaccine that cost countless lives by cratering US vaccine uptake to his vacillation on school closures.  Plus, he worked to squelch discussion of the theory that COVID escaped accidentally from a lab, specifically the Wuhan Institute of Virology (which studied coronaviruses and had previous safety issues).  This idea Fauci took seriously in private but dismissed in public — which means the threat is still a viable one.

The World Health Organisation has lost all credibility.  Let's be honest: is there anyone out there who has faith in the ability of the World Health Organisation (WHO) to tackle a future pandemic?  Any lingering hope that the WHO might be an organisation fit to be trusted with global heath concerns has pretty well evaporated with the election, by acclamation, of China as one of the 12 members of its executive board on Friday.  It is true, of course, that an international body must have representation from all over the world if it is going to win the near-universal cooperation it needs in order to operate.  It can't be led entirely by western democracies and wealthy South Asian countries even if they might have the best skills available; you need members able to tap into every culture and religion on Earth.  But ought we really be trusting leadership of the WHO to a government which is not merely a malignant dictatorship, accused of human rights abuses against its own citizens — but which has also obstructed an investigation into the high likelihood that it accidentally caused the last pandemic?

Shocking Pfizer Study Data Reveals 82% of Jabbed Pregnant Women Had Miscarriages, So They Stopped Counting.  Pfizer's court-ordered compliance with a FOIA request has resulted in tons of damaging data being dropped every month.  Their Covid-19 "vaccine" research, development, and implementation were pocked with warning signs that the drugs were neither safe nor effective.  But the most recent release may be the [worst] of all as it not only reveals the drugs are unsafe, but that Pfizer tried to cover it up by manipulating the numbers.  It's so blatant that it's highly unlikely it was just an error.  Life News reported their study included 270 pregnant women.  The first 34 had outcomes reported, but the numbers were so hideous that they did not follow the remaining 236 test subjects.  Considering they were on the verge of the greatest pharmaceutical windfall in history, Pfizer decided it was better to run away from a problem rather than reveal it further.

Moderna Throwing Away 30 Million Doses of COVID Vaccine Because 'Nobody Wants Them'.  Our betters in the World Economic Forum (WEF) gathered in Davos this week to decide what's best for the planet and everyone on it (especially themselves). But Stéphane Bancel, CEO of Moderna, was sad.  He was disappointed that the plebs don't want his company's revered COVID-19 vaccines.  "It's sad to say, I'm in the process of throwing 30 million doses into the garbage, because nobody wants them," lamented Bancel as he participated in a panel discussion.  "We have a big demand problem."  Actually, that sounds like a big over-supply problem to me, but what do I know?

Canada: More People in Alberta Have Died from Covid Than Were Admitted to ICU, Why is this Important?  Having another look through the Alberta Provincial Covid data last week, Sheldon Yakiwchuk noticed that over the last four months more people died with or from Covid than had been admitted into Alberta's intensive care units ("ICU").  "This isn't a new phenomenon," Yakiwchuk wrote.  "The long and the short of it boils down to, a lot of these people who died — didn't actually die from Covid but were already on 'goals of care' that won't actually allow their admission into ICU — they are already terminally ill and this was before they came into contact with Covid."  Goals of care are the levels of intervention a patient would want should they encounter serious illness.

Yet Another Lockdown, and a Fantasy is Revealed.  On the weekend of May 20, mainland China, recognized by the business community as "a low-cost country," announced yet another citywide COVID lockdown.  This time, it's the northeastern coastal city of Tianjin, with a population of 14 million, the primary seaport for the nation's capital city, Beijing.  Tianjin is one of the five biggest cities in China, and is one of the busiest seaports in the world — or at least, it was until this week.  Tianjin is a huge manufacturing center, producing cars, clothing, petrochemicals, large and small machinery, even Airbus airplanes (remember when the name Airbus meant it was made in France?). Tianjin is a huge, sprawling, low-cost city, in a huge, sprawling, low-cost country.  Why has so much of the world's manufacturing moved to Tianjin, and to China in general?  Don't call anyone in Tianjin today to ask.  They won't be in the office.  They're restricted to their homes, as soldiers and bureaucrats with megaphones march down residential streets, enforcing the lockdown.

Florida IG Rejects Conspiracist Rebekah Jones's 'Unsubstantiated' Covid Cover-up Claims.  A former dashboard manager at the Florida Department of Health made "unsubstantiated" claims that Governor Ron DeSantis's administration fired her because she refused to obey her superiors' instructions to fudge the state's Covid-19 data, a new investigation has found.  The extensive report from the Health Department's Office of Inspector General found "insufficient evidence" that Rebekah Jones was ordered to falsify, alter, or misrepresent Covid positivity rates on the state COVID-19 Data and Surveillance dashboard that she helped build.  In December 2020, Jones alleged that former Florida deputy secretary of health Dr. Shamarial Roberson, a reputable chronic-disease epidemiologist, pressured her to "delete cases and deaths" to sugarcoat the state's handling of the Covid crisis.  Jones later backtracked, arguing instead on her now-suspended Twitter account that Roberson "asked me to go into the raw data and manually alter figures."

Here's what really happened with Covid.  [Thread reader]  Global elites had ramped up significant efforts to reshape the world to address a host of inequalities and imagined boogeymen like climate change.  These global elites were bolstered by a host of corrupt institutions which included the WHO ("World Health Organization"), big pharmaceutical companies, and world wealth and health players like Bill Gates and the WEF.  With the emergence of a new virus these groups pounced at the vulnerable moment to put their plans into action and retool the world with a host of proposals — this was known as The Great Reset.  The Coronavirus response was just the first sortie in this plan.  Govts across the world, under the threat of serious mortality (real or imagined), caved to the plan of action which utilized never-before imagined cram downs on individual rights, massive expenses, and enhanced authority overhauls to set the stage for a shift of power.  Free speech, right to assembly, right to bodily autonomy, representative government all fell within months of the first COVID-19 cases announced in almost every country.  This newfound power and framework allowed this movement to latch on the decaying carcass of fragile democracies, societal empathies, and eggshell-walking politicos anxious about upcoming elections.  Unprecedented global lockdowns of populations disrupted the entire flow of commerce and relationships.  Trillions of tax dollars flowed into the coffers of every connected and corrupt institution under the guise of "protecting" the global populace from this apocalyptic pathogen.  Disrupted businesses were "bought" off with zero-cost loans and grants to keep employees onboard and keep the money flowing so as not to destroy the economies all at once.  A massive global testing regime was set up to catch the widest number of COVID-19 infections possible.  The chosen test array (the PCR test) could pick up remnants of a virus at 5 days after infection or even 75 days. [...]

Really Big Brother:  WHO Pandemic Treaty Readies Global Vaccine Passport System.  In the biggest story few are talking about, the World Health Organization has announced plans for an international pandemic treaty that may involve a digital passport and digital ID system.  The treaty would also grant the WHO new governing authority over all 194 UN member states.  The World Health Organization, who totally botched COVID and failed to get tough on China, wants more power to make more decisions over more territories than ever before.  How's that sound?  Members of the House Freedom Caucus, led by Republican Reps.  Scott Perry (R-PA) and Jim Jordan (R-OH), have written a letter to President Joe Biden demanding he oppose the global pandemic treaty or "at the very least, push serious reforms."

Aviators, medical experts call on airline industry to end pilot vaccine mandates.  A coalition of groups representing pilots, airline passengers, aviation workers, and medical experts around the world is calling for an end to all COVID-19 vaccine mandates in the air travel industry as well as an independent review of data that could shed light on the true impact of the shots.  The Global Aviation Advocacy Coalition, which bills itself as "unit[ing] passengers and aviation sector personnel in the pursuit of flight safety and freedom," is composed of more than a dozen groups spanning the United States, Canada, and Europe, including Free to Fly Canada, Move Freely America, Aussie Freedom Flyers, UK Medical Freedom Alliance, the International Medical Alliance, Global Covid Summit, Canadian Covid Care Alliance, Association of American Physicians & Surgeons, and more.

Is the COVID Pandemic about to Get Ugly?  For a pandemic to be brought under control, a sufficient part of the population needs to acquire sterilizing immunity so that transmission among individuals can be minimized and herd immunity of the whole population can be achieved.  COVID mass vaccinations have been a medical disaster in the U.S. and many other countries because the vaccines allow high levels of transmission of the virus and block our innate and naturally acquired immunity.  As a result of this high level of COVID infection spread, the current lull in virulence (severe outcomes and deaths) will soon skyrocket to levels far higher than 2020.  This warning that the pandemic is "far from over" comes from Geert Vanden Bossche, a well known vaccinologist based in Belgium who has been ringing alarm bells for over a year.  Geert is not alone in coming to this conclusion, but he is one of the few prominent researchers speaking out.

COVID-19 vaccines contain a virus far deadlier than SARS-CoV-2.  Most of the vaccine deaths recorded by the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in more than three decades happened last year following the rollout of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines.  There had been various reports of healthy people, including athletes, dying after getting vaccinated — but mainstream media and social media platforms are intent on censoring them.  There had been talks about nanotechnology, the use of spike protein, graphene oxide and graphene hydroxide and all sorts of things.  About a year ago, glyphosate — a weed killer — was found in the vaccines.  This led many to suspect that big pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer are introducing something into the vaccines that are designed to cause detrimental effects to the body.  It's almost like there's a sleeper cell in the body that can be triggered based on the chemical ingredient in the vaccine.

Dr. Fauci warns about 'the normalization of untruths'.  While delivering a speech during Princeton University's 2022 Class Day on Monday [5/23/2022], Dr. Anthony Fauci warned against accepting "the normalization of untruths."  "Sadly, elements of our society have grown increasingly inured to a cacophony of falsehoods and lies that often stand largely unchallenged, ominously leading to ... acceptance of what I call the normalization of untruths.  We see this happen daily with falsehoods propagated through a range of information platforms by a spectrum of people, including, sad to say, certain elected officials in positions of power," Fauci said.

Philadelphia school district reinstates mask requirement.  The Schools District of Philadelphia announced that beginning this week students and staff must once again don COVID-19 masks in classrooms.  The move was prompted by a general rise in virus case numbers across the country, and especially concentrated in the Northeast.  The district made the announcement Friday, citing the rise in case numbers and a recommendation from the Philadelphia Department of Public Health for universal mask-wearing.  Masks will be required at all times on school campuses and while traveling to-and-from schools in buses and vans.

Fox News:  John Roberts Breaks The Silence About Vaccine Injuries.  Two months ago, I helped to publicize the story (375,000 page views and counting!) that Fox News took money from the Biden regime to push COVID vaccine propaganda on their network relentlessly.  Fox News (like almost all the other corporate media outlets) did not reveal this crucial fact to its audience — an astonishing breach of journalistic ethics that should never be forgiven or forgotten.  I wrote at the time that Fox News was also coercing its own employees into getting vaccinated even though the vast majority were working from home: [...] In the back of my mind, for the last eight weeks, I kept wondering when the reckoning would come for Fox News.  How long would it take for a prominent employee to be injured by the COVID vaccines?  And who would dare to publicly disclose that injury in the face of Fox News' ongoing campaign to push Big Pharma's diabolical shots?  And the answer is:  John Roberts.

Top Airline Pilot Suffers Cardiac Arrest Between Flights Post Mandatory COVID Vaccination.  Robert Snow, a pilot for American Airlines, one of the top 3 largest airlines in the country, has 31 years of commercial airline experience and additionally seven years of experience as a U.S. Air Force pilot.  Snow says that he might not be able to fly again after he suffered a cardiac arrest only 6 or 7 minutes after landing a plane he piloted from Denver to Dallas Fort Worth (DFW).  He still had two more flights scheduled on April 9.  He believes that his cardiac arrest is connected to the Johnson and Johnson COVID vaccine he was forced to take in order to keep his job on Nov. 4, 2021, even though he already had natural immunity from previously contracting the virus.  Dr. Peter McCullough, a world-renowned cardiologist, told Newsmax that Snow's case fits a "pattern."

CNN Overstates Public Risk of Monkeypox, Repeats Biden Lies.  CNN wants you to be as afraid of monkeypox as you were of COVID, and we all need to panic.  Biden said everyone should be aware of monkeypox, so the media uncritically reports the same.  But the threat patterns are not the same for the general public, just as they weren't for COVID which preyed on obese elderly patients.  Monkeypox, by comparison, seems to prey on gay men engaged in high-risk sexual activity.  You would never know that by reading CNN though.

Cardiologist Says 30 Percent of Vaccinated Pilots Would Fail Health Screenings Due to Vaccine Injuries.  Joshua Yoder, an airline pilot and co-founder of the U.S. Freedom Flyers said during an interview Wednesday that a cardiologist told him that if the airlines were conducting certain health screenings, 30 percent of the pilots currently flying would probably be disqualified due to vaccine-induced heart conditions.  Yoder told tech millionaire and Vaccine Safety Research Foundation founder Steve Kirsch that his group has received hundreds of reports about pilots flying planes while suffering from adverse side effects from the COVID vaccines.  The most prominent health issues being reported, the pilot noted, include chest pains, myocarditis, and pericarditis.  Yoder said that three vaccinated pilot called him yesterday and said that they're "currently flying with chest pains," and another one said he is being treated by a cardiologist.

The Right to Refuse Any Medical Procedure, Treatment, or Vaccine.  If the last two years have shown us anything, it's the importance of keeping our liberties even if watching the erosion of the American fabric.  All across the US, violators of the US Constitution are leading states down a dark pathway.  Citizens are standing up, and politicians are getting a strong message.  When the federal government issues any guidance, your governor can choose or refuse compliance. [...] Now, Pennsylvania will be attempting another amendment change in its "Declaration of Rights."HB (House bill) 2013 will attempt to add Section 30, which gives all Pennsylvanians the right to medical freedom.  This addition will allow an individual the right to refuse any medical procedure, treatment, injection, vaccine, or prophylactic intervention without question.

The Bonnie and Clyde of Bioethics.  A friendly reminder:  For 12 years, Fauci's wife has been the head of clinical bioethics at the NIH.  Absolutely no one in government has seen any undue risk or conflict of interest here.  To my knowledge, no one in power has even taken a look at potential problems with this arrangement.  And perhaps they should.

Ron DeSantis:  There Is 'No Way' Florida Will Support W.H.O. Global Pandemic Treaty.  There is "no way" Florida will ever support the World Health Organization's (W.H.O.) global pandemic treaty, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said on Monday [5/23/2022].  "We in Florida, there is no way we will ever support this W.H.O. thing ... that's not going to happen.  No way," DeSantis said during a press conference in Cape Coral, Florida.  "But you saw, I mean, you saw a lot of these elites advocate very pernicious policies," he added, noting that "part of the reason people want to move here is because we rejected those policies, but they advocated very pernicious policies, including locking kids out of school."

More Evidence for Early Treatment.  [Scroll down]  One of the key takeaways of the article is the apparent malfeasance of the World Health Organization, governments, Trusted News Initiative (TNI) and old media to silence the successes of Ivermectin in countries like India.  But as stated above, randomized clinical trials that have been underpowered, started late within the disease time course (after viral load is gone already largely cleared — important for an anti-viral drug for instance) and/or under dosed have been rampant.  Normally, most drug studies have pre-clinical animal studies and dose escalation studies that significantly address these issues prior to clinical trial start date.  But time and again, these types of studies have not been concluded prior to the start of the trial.  Instead, intuition and opinion seems to be driving clinical trial study design.  There is no "gold standard" in that.  Garbage in, garbage out.  How does a randomized clinical trial for an anti-viral set an enrollment initiation date for initial administration of the anti-viral AFTER the known date of viral elimination by the body?  Yet, time and again during this pandemic, this is what has happened in these "gold standard" randomized clinical trials!

In rebuke to Pentagon, Navy board finds 3-0 for vax objector amid questions of mandate's lawfulness.  In a stinging rebuke to the Pentagon, a Navy administrative separation board voted unanimously to retain an officer who refused to comply with the military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  Navy Lt. Billy Moseley, who has been an officer for 22 years, could have chosen to retire from the military when he was ordered to receive the COVID vaccine.  He also could have submitted a Religious Accommodation Request, since he objected to the vaccine for religious reasons.  Risking his retirement, Moseley chose instead to take his case to the administrative separation board after learning "that the Navy and the other services intended to implement a blanket denial policy," according to a press release from his attorney, R. Davis Younts.

Biden Was Asked By CNN Reporter If He Had A Message For Kim Jong-un But There Was Nothing In The Teleprompter So He "Improvised".  Biden's trip to South Korea has been a disaster so far!  Footage of Biden landing in South Korea raised even more controversies.  Watch as he descends the steps of Air Force One wearing a mask, and then takes off the mask as soon as he comes into contact with other people.  It's science.  [Video clip]

The Covid-19 Vaccination Massacre.  Over two years have gone by since the Covid-19 staged PSYOP was thrust onto the world's population, fooling the masses into believing that a phony virus (and all its hokey counterparts) existed and that a new type of vaccine was the only answer in saving humanity.  At that time, in November, 2020, right before the Covid-19 vaccines were dispensed onto the public, I spoke out and forewarned that the mRNA technology within the vaccines made them bioweapons, and that millions would be harmed and die if they took the injections.  Time has proven me right.  By September of 2021, my warnings were substantiated.  VAERS data from CDC, which reports American vaccine injuries, provided a clear clue that the vaccines were weapons of mass destruction — 742,349 vaccine takers suffered adverse reactions (including death) comprising of heart failure, blood clots, strokes, brain illnesses, inflamed spinal cords, seizures, allergic reactions, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, miscarriage, infertility, deafness, blindness, muscle weakness and loss, and sleep disorders.  By April, 2022, VAERS showed a combined total of 1,247,131 injuries and deaths.  And because only 1% of injuries from Covid vaccines are reported, it is reasonable to expect that actual deaths and injuries can be up to five times higher.  No other type of vaccine over the last 30 years has ever caused this much impairment in such a short time.

FDA Dumps More Pfizer Documents:  Why Were So Many Adverse Events Reported as 'Unrelated' to Vaccine?  The latest release of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine documents raises questions about how frequently adverse events experienced by clinical trial participants were reported as "unrelated" to the vaccine.  The 80,000-page document cache released May 2 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) includes an extensive set of Case Report Forms (CRFs) from Pfizer trials conducted at various locations in the U.S.  The documents also include the "third interim report" from BioNTech's trials conducted in Germany (accompanied by a synopsis of this report and a database of adverse events from this particular set of trials).  The FDA released the documents, which pertain to the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the vaccine, as part of a court-ordered disclosure schedule stemming from an expedited Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed in August 2021.

White House Looks to Be Planning for 'Wave of Infection,' Just in Time for Midterms, Advises Indoor Masking.  During his Sunday morning [5/22/2022] appearance on ABC's "This Week," Dr. Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health and the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, spoke of an expected surge of Wuhan coronavirus cases for the coming fall and winter.  In other words, the surge is expected to come right before the November midterms.  [Tweet]  When asked by host Martha Raddatz about the expected surge, Dr. Jha explained they are indeed "planning for a variety of scenarios including a wave of infection this fall and winter," which he used as an opportunity to push "making that sure we have a new generation of vaccines that are being worked on right now, that we have availability of treatments and testing, and we have the resources."

Archbishop Viganò: World Health Organization treaty is an attack on national sovereignty, part of a 'global coup'.  In the coming days, the Nations that adhere to the World Health Organization (WHO) will vote on resolutions regarding the WHO's management of pandemics.  These resolutions will transfer sovereignty regarding the health of citizens to a supranational body that is largely financed by the pharmaceutical industry and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.  If these resolutions are approved by a majority, the WHO will have exclusive international authority in the case of a pandemic to impose all the rules, including quarantines, lockdowns, obligatory vaccinations, and vaccine passports.  It should also be borne in mind that this organization enjoys immunity, and thus its members cannot be either tried or convicted if they commit crimes.  Unelected technocrats will paradoxically have more power than that which citizens confer on their representatives by means of their democratic vote.  Given that the yielding of sovereignty is considered the crime of high treason by the laws of every nation, and that parliaments may not legislate against the interests of the Nation, much less violate the natural liberties and fundamental rights of the citizens whom they represent, I believe that it will not escape anyone's notice that this attempt by the WHO to appropriate a power that properly belongs to individual nations is intended to impede any sort of opposition to the "Agenda 2030," which in the field of healthcare also aims to accomplish the drastic reduction of medical and hospital services, the privatization of the health industry, and disease prevention by means of vaccines.

Alarm Sounded Over WHO's Global Pandemic Treaty.  In the wake of the myriad failures during the covid pandemic response, World Health Organization officials did little self reflection.  Instead, they decided that they needed even more power over the global population.  Subsequently, the idea of a Global Pandemic Treaty was born. [...] The WHO will convene next week, and one of the issues of its focus will be that treaty.  It will then deliver a progress report to the 76th World Health Assembly in 2023, with the aim of adopting the instrument by 2024.  Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson took a look at the treaty and began sounding the alarm.

Non-Natural Cause Deaths.  [Thread reader]  Pharma trolls and Covid panic aficionados this is the tally of young people you murdered (so far 86,800).  This is different from an unstoppable virus doing its work.

NYPD puts 4,650 vaccine firings on hold: insiders.  The city's vaccine mandate has been put on "pause" for the NYPD so the force can avoid losing nearly 5,000 cops and employees as the weather — and crime — heats up, The [New York] Post has learned.  Currently, 91 percent of the NYPD's uniformed cops and other personnel are vaccinated, City Hall says.  That leaves an estimated 4,659 NYPD employees unvaccinated despite a deadline to get the shots by Oct. 29.  "In a nutshell, no decisions will be made, no further members will be forced to leave until further notice," said a veteran NYPD sergeant, explaining the unwritten rule.  "There hasn't been any memo, just basically keep everything status quo and if issues arise we will revisit it down the road."

Mass die-off:  Close to 180,000 died within 60 days of COVID-19 vaccination — England statistics office makes stunning admission.  The Office for National Statistics (ONS) in England revealed that a total of 69,466 people died within 28 days and 178,874 people died within 60 days of getting injected with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine between January 2021 and March 2022.  ONS published the data on deaths by vaccination status on May 16.  The report included a chart titled "Number of Deaths within 28 Days of COVID-19 Vaccination in England."  The total fatalities were broken down to 7,953 people who died positive for the virus and 61,513 people who expired due to other causes within 28 days of vaccination.  During the same timeframe, a total of 14,049 people died from coronavirus and a total of 164,825 people died from other causes within 60 days of vaccination.

Unvaccinated cadets will graduate, but won't receive commissions, Air Force Academy says.  Three U.S. Air Force Academy cadets whose refusal to get COVID-19 vaccines threatened their May 25 graduation — along with the risk of a repayment demand for six-figure tuition costs — will be awarded their degrees, officials said Saturday [5/21/2022].  Following a "standard review" of graduation requirements for this year's senior class, the Academy's board recommended awarding Bachelor of Science degrees "for the three cadets refusing the COVID-19 vaccine," a press release from the Colorado Springs, Colorado, school said.

Young Boy Died With Evidence of Heart Inflammation After COVID-19 Vaccination:  CDC.  A young boy died after getting Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine and evidence was found of the boy suffering from heart inflammation, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) researchers revealed on May 19.  The male child experienced fever 12 days after getting the dose, which was his first.  A day later, he experienced abdominal pain and vomiting.  He died that day.  "This patient had a rapid clinical course.  From the time they started experiencing their abdominal pain day 13 after dose one until the time they were brought into the [emergency department] and subsequently died was on the order of a couple of hours," Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, a CDC vaccine analyst, said during a virtual meeting.  Histopathological evidence of myocarditis was present on autopsy, and that was resolved to be the cause of death," he added.

Louisiana Supreme Court rebukes Democrat governor in siding with pastor who defied COVID lockdown.  Democrat Gov. John Bel Edwards violated Pastor Tony Spell's freedom of religion by instituting COVID-19 restrictions that forbade him from holding in-person church services, the Louisiana Supreme Court ruled May 13.  The Shreveport Times reports that Spell defied Edwards' March 2020 limitation of in-person gatherings to ten people, for which he was subjected to criminal charges.  While lower courts ruled against Spell, the state's highest court determined that "certain provisions of two executive orders, as applied to defendant, violate his fundamental right to exercise religion, do not survive strict scrutiny, and are thus unconstitutional."

California school district reinstates indoor mask mandate.  A Northern California school district is reimposing indoor mask requirements for students, staff and visitors amid an uptick in COVID-19 cases.  The Berkeley Unified School District on Friday [5/20/2022] said the new mandate go into effect on Monday, citing the advice of health officials.  "As you can see above, Dr. Hernandez has strongly recommended that the district use our authority to reinstate a mask mandate," district Superintendent Brent Stephens said about a message he received from city Health Officer Lisa Hernandez earlier in the week.  "Because we are not a health agency, we must rely on these experts to guide us."

FDA denies generic drug fluvoxamine emergency use authorization as COVID treatment.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has rejected a request to grant emergency use authorization to a cheap generic drug for the treatment of Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).  This decision has sparked controversy and drawn criticism from many healthcare workers.  The drug in question is fluvoxamine, an FDA-approved selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that is usually used as a treatment for mental health conditions such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and major depressive disorder.  In December 2021, Dr. David Boulware, a leading infectious diseases specialist and professor of medicine at the University of Minnesota Medical School, submitted an emergency use authorization application for fluvoxamine to be used as an outpatient treatment for COVID-19 positive patients and to prevent the progression of their cases to hospitalization.

Tucker Carlson Warns America That Biden is About to Hand the WHO Immense Power Over Our Lives.  Fox News host Tucker Carlson is warning Americans about an ominous 'pandemic treaty' that would hand the World Health Organization immense power over Americans' lives.  [Video clip]  "So what will this operational control mean?" Carlson said.  "Let's be specific right off the bat.  The treaty demands, quote, 'national and global coordinated actions to address the misinformation, disinformation and stigmatization that undermine public health.'  Oh, here we go.  Right to censorship."

Whitmer Pledged To Cut Her Pay for Duration of Pandemic.  She Gave Up After Five Months.  In early 2020, Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer (D.) pledged to give back a portion of her salary for the duration of the coronavirus pandemic.  But she stopped after 5 months — even as her gathering and mask restrictions dragged on for more than a year.  Whitmer in April 2020 said she would "lead by example" and return 10 percent of her $159,300 salary to the state's treasury department during the pandemic.  According to state records obtained by MIRS News, however, Whitmer ended the pledge just five months later in September after cutting three checks totaling $4,917 back to the state.  The Democrat's pandemic restrictions lasted significantly longer than her self-imposed pay cut pledge — Whitmer limited indoor gatherings and required face masks in public for 15 months.

China's Censors Aim to Contain Dissent During Harsh COVID-19 Lockdowns.  As Shanghai enters its seventh week of COVID-19 lockdowns, China's censors have been hard at work trying to contain an eruption of public outrage and enforce the leadership's prohibition of any public debate or calls to reconsider its strategy.  Spikes in censorship and social media activism occur periodically in China, particularly in moments of crisis.  As in past periods of extreme regime sensitivity, there are ample examples from recent weeks of censorship "overkill," including restrictions on a WeChat account belonging to the National People's Congress, seemingly innocuous phrases like "happy birthday," a hashtag with the first line of China's national anthem, and references to the Hollywood film "La La Land."

Rubio grills Fauci:  How is it Americans with COVID can't get in country, but illegals can?  Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida asked Dr. Anthony Fauci — director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease — Tuesday to explain why Americans cannot return to the country if they test positive for COVID-19, but illegal aliens apprehended at the southern border can enter.  "I believe the United States is the only major Western country that now requires its citizens to test negative for COVID before they can get on an airplane and reenter the country," Rubio told Fauci during Fauci's appearance at a hearing of a subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee.

Why Is Joe Biden Still President?  The U.S. recently passed the 1 million mark for COVID-19 deaths, a grim milestone recognized with the lowering of flags to half staff around the country.  More than 60% of those deaths have come during the bungling tenure of President Joe Biden, who said in a late-October 2020 debate with Donald Trump that the president should be kicked out of the White House because of how many had died from the virus on his watch.  Based on his own standard, Biden should be back in his Delaware basement. [...] Though the Democrats and the press ghoulishly held Trump directly responsible for COVID deaths during his last year in office, we think it's distasteful, and careless, to blame Biden for lives lost to the virus while he's been president.  There's only so much a White House can do during a pandemic.  But it's nevertheless important to point out that Biden not only set a standard that he then should have been required to live by, he also promised the American people that "I will take care of this.  I will end this."  It was a lie no one should have believed, a promise impossible to keep.

NPR's strict masking policy encourages coworkers to tattle on violators.  National Public Radio is encouraging staffers to squeal on each other if they do not comply with the company's Draconian mask-wearing policy in the office.  According to a strongly-worded memo sent out Thursday, NPR employees are not only required to wear masks in the office, but if they see someone who isn't complying with the mandate, they are encouraged to correct their coworker or rat them out to higher-ups.  "If you notice someone who has forgotten their mask, you might tell them, "Hey, you forgot your mask," the memo said, adding they can also let a superior know so they can "remind" them or they can get human resources involved.  Repeat offenses could lead to the maskless offender getting fired.

Who Cares What the WHO Says?  The proposed amendments by the U.S. to the International Health Regulations do not degrade the sovereignty of the United States.  The proposed amendments will reduce the power of a country to prevent the World Health Organization from declaring that a public health emergency exists in this country.  There is nothing in the proposed amendments that obligates the U.S. to accept any such declaration by the WHO.  I cannot find anything in any American law or treaty to which the United States is a signatory that obligates any part of the federal government or any state government to agree with any such declaration by the WHO or in any way adopt or abide by any such declaration.

Dr. Robert Malone: 'Rotten to the Core' FDA Knew COVID Vaccines Could Spur Viral Reactivation, But Said Nothing.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was aware early on that the COVID vaccines could spur viral reactivation of diseases like the varicella-zoster virus (shingles) in some people, but chose not to disclose it, according to renowned vaccinologist and physician Dr. Robert Malone.  "They knew about the viral reactivation," Malone declared during a recent panel discussion hosted by Del Bigtree with fellow Global COVID Summit physicians Dr. Ryan Cole, and Dr. Richard Urso.  Malone, the original inventor of mRNA and DNA vaccination technology, explained that he had been "very actively engaged" with senior personnel at the FDA in the Office of the Commissioner when the vaccines were being rolled out.  The group, he noted, included Dr. William DuMouchel, the Chief Statistical Scientist for Oracle Health Sciences.

SARS-CoV2 Spike protein is a toxin.  First, a quick overview of the various "factchecking" organization statements.  How many people developed brain damages or lost their life or that of a loved one because of accepting a vaccine based on the falsehoods propagated by these grossly unqualified "factcheckers"? Do they have criminal liability for their falsehoods and propaganda?  As you look through this, please keep in mind that the FDA has approved three doses of these mRNA vaccines for administration to all of our 5-11 year old children.  Under emergency use authorization, of course.  Even though there is no medical emergency.

New law protects docs who prescribe ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine.  Reacting to the suppression of certain "controversial" treatments for COVID-19, Missouri passed a law that bans pharmacists from questioning doctors who prescribe ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine for their patients.  The measure passed the Missouri House by a 130-4 vote last week and now is at the desk of Republican Gov. Mike Parsons, the Kansas City Star reported.  The bill, the paper said, would bar state medical licensing boards from punishing or removing the medical licenses of doctors who "lawfully" prescribe the two drugs.

Key NIH Research Executive Received 70 Secret Royalty Payments.  Two key National Institutes for Health (NIH) executives in positions of influence on decisions about who gets grants from the agency received a total of 77 previously undisclosed royalty payments from outside firms between 2010 and 2014.  The secret royalty payments, which were first reported by The Epoch Times, are among thousands estimated to total at least $350 million paid between 2010 and 2020.  Former NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins received 14 payments, Anthony Fauci, who heads NIH's National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), received 23, and Clifford Lane, Fauci's chief deputy, got eight payments.  Acting NIH Director Lawrence Tabak conceded during questioning last week by Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.) that the undisclosed royalties have the "appearance of a conflict of interest," but he insisted that the agency has sufficient internal safeguards to prevent such problems.  Federal law and ethics regulations bar federal employees from activities that present either the appearance or an actual conflict of interest.

FDA green lights Pfizer COVID booster for children 5 to 11 years old.  The US Food and Drug Administration gave the green light Tuesday to a booster shot of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11.  In a statement, the FDA said healthy children in the target demographic can get a booster at least five months after their second dose of the vaccine.  Booster shots could begin as early as Friday, reported NBC News.  "While it has largely been the case that COVID-19 tends to be less severe in children than adults, the Omicron wave has seen more kids getting sick with the disease and being hospitalized, and children may also experience longer-term effects, even following initially mild disease," said FDA Commissioner Robert Califf.

Mariners Pitcher, Robbie Ray Ruled Out of Blue Jays Series Over Vaxx Status.  Seattle Mariners' left-hand pitcher and reigning Cy Young winner Robbie Ray is expected to sit out the team's three-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays this week.  Ray is expected to return to the mound against the Boston Red Sox on Friday.  [Tweet]  While the team did not disclose why Ray is missing the series, it is apparent that Canada's mandatory vaccination rule is playing a role; likely indicating that the star pitcher is unvaccinated.  Ray will be missing out on a significant return to Toronto after winning the Cy Young as part of the Blue Jays in 2021.

I'm no doctor, but this stuff doesn't perform like a "vaccine."
JAMA study:  Pfizer COVID shot's protection fades in weeks.  A peer-reviewed paper published by the Journal of the American Medical Association concluded that immunity against the omicron coronavirus variant fades rapidly after a second and third dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.  The research by Danish scientists published in JAMA Network Open on Friday found antibody responses fell within weeks after second and third Pfizer doses, Forbes reported.

Utah nurses try to hide case of fully vaccinated patient coughing up massive fibrous clot from one of his lungs.  A group of intensive care unit nurses in Utah has tried to cover up the fact that one of their patients who is fully vaccinated against the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) is coughing up fibrous clots from one of his lungs.  This was according to Dr. Jane Ruby, who spoke about the incident on the April 25 episode of her show, the "Dr. Jane Ruby Show," on the Stew Peters Network.  Ruby got the information from "Tracy," an individual from her Telegram channel who indicated that she was a nurse in a hospital in Utah.  According to Tracy, one of her colleagues shared with her a photograph of a fibrous-looking clot that was coughed up by a 32-year-old patient in the hospital's ICU.  The patient, an otherwise healthy man, is fully vaccinated.  Ruby did her due diligence as a researcher and vetted Tracy and the information she gave her.  She came to the conclusion that this information is accurate.

Quadruple Vaxed Sheila Jackson Lee Tests Positive for the Coronavirus.  Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) tested positive for the Chinese coronavirus, her office said in a statement on Monday, despite her status as both vaccinated and boosted.  "Statement:  Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee tested positive for COVID.  She is fully vaccinated and has received her boosters," an update posted to Twitter reads.  The statement suggests the congresswoman has been quadruple vaccinated, assuming she received the traditional two-dose series and later received "boosters," per the statement.

North Korea's explosive Covid outbreak:  From 0 to 820,620 cases and 40+ deaths in just 3 days.  North Korea State media KCNA said a total of 42 people had died, with 820,620 cases and at least 324,550 under medical treatment only 3 days after the first Covid case was officially acknowledged.  Leader Kim Jong Un has said the outbreak has caused "great upheaval" in North Korea.  KCNA reported that "all provinces, cities and counties of the country have been totally locked down and working units, production units and residential units closed from each other."

The Editor says...
Raise your hand if you think it is possible for a country to go from ZERO Covid cases to 820,620 cases in only three days.  Yeah, I don't either.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams masks up as city's health department quietly reveals plans to set Covid alert level to 'high'.  New York City's Mayor Eric Adams was spotted donning a face mask Monday — an accessory he is not often wearing during public events — after the city quietly updated its Covid guidance to recommend them in all indoor public places.  The mayor donned the grey covering while he shook hands with students at the Economic Development Summit in City College of New York's Great Hall.  He removed it when he took to the stage to answer questions from the press, before putting the covering back on to leave the room.  Only a few people in the crowd and on the stage also wore masks during the conference.

COVID-19, MIS-C and Kawasaki disease share same immune response.  The emergence of COVID-19 had doctors racing to define and treat the new disease, but they soon discovered it was not the only novel illness caused by SARS-CoV-2.  A subset of children infected by the virus also experienced abdominal pain, headaches, rashes and vomiting.  This new set of symptoms was labeled multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and had many of its pediatric patients requiring intensive care.  As MIS-C rates rose, physicians began to note its similarities to a pre-pandemic illness, Kawasaki disease (KD), which has puzzled pediatricians for more than 50 years.  MIS-C and KD share many symptoms, including fever, rash and bloodshot eyes, though KD can also lead to coronary artery aneurysms and heart attack.  Unlike MIS-C, which is associated with a specific virus, KD may be triggered by a variety of infectious and environmental stimuli.

Fauci Laughably Says if Trump Is Re-Elected, He Won't Serve Again.  White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci said on CNN Sunday [5/15/2022] that he would not serve in that capacity should Donald Trump regain the White House in 2024.  Note to Dr. Fauci:  Trump would not ask you to serve and would, in fact, probably kick you to the curb his first minute back in office.

Anthony Fauci Says He'll Resign if Donald Trump Returns to Power.  A Donald Trump return to the White House will see Dr. Anthony Fauci heading for the exit, America's top infectious disease expert promised Sunday [5/15/2022].  The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director used an interview on CNN to reveal he does not want to serve under the former president if he is re-elected in 2024 and would likely resign.

Air Force Academy cadets may not graduate because they're unvaccinated.  They refused the vaccine.  Now four cadets at the Air Force Academy may not graduate as a result — and could be forced to pay back hefty tuition fees.  So far it's the only military academy imposing such harsh penalties on its cadets, Air Force officials said.  The cadets at the Colorado Springs academy also could be prevented from being commissioned as military officers this month because they refused the COVID-19 vaccine.  They may also have to pay back thousands of dollars in tuition costs, the Air Force said.  The Army and Navy said that as of now, no seniors will be blocked from graduating at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., or the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, due to vaccine refusals.

Overview Video of mRNA Vaccine Technology.  This 25 minutes video explains in detail the mechanisms of action for mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, as well as highlighting some of the known risks.  If you wish to have a better understanding of the technology or wish for a refresher on the tech, as well as to learn a bit of cellular and molecular biology[,] this is a great primer.

Biden administration warns of new COVID wave, just in time for fall midterm elections.  [T]he Biden Regime is telling us to brace ourselves for a new wave of COVID coming this fall, just in time for the midterm elections.  When something proves successful, you'd be a fool not to try it again, right?  COVID fears led to mail-in balloting, which in turn allowed Biden to be "elected" president of the United States.  Therefore, Democrats and their sycophants believe that reintroducing those fears can keep Congressional Democrats in power — against all odds.  Perhaps lightning can strike twice.  Without offering up any information to support the claim, a senior Biden administration official recently projected that up to 100 million Americans — nearly 1/3 of the population — could get infected with COVID-19 COVID-20 COVID-21 COVID-22 this fall and early winter if Congress doesn't provide more funding for vaccines and other treatments.  And if they are allowed to vote in person, of course.  Given the staggeringly high rate of new cases among the fully vaccinated, that might not be too far-fetched.

Thoughts on Our Faucian Bargain.  Open the Books has publicized outrageous taxpayer-funded pensions, lavish government subsidies to super-rich Ivy league colleges, and eye-popping public employee salaries.  Every revelation is wrenched from the clenched fists of government bureaucracies whose byword, like that of the mafia, is "omertà," silence.  Perhaps their most damaging report was released just last week.  Open the Books teamed up with Judicial Watch, another invaluable public-spirited watchdog, to mount a lawsuit against the National Institutes of Health in order to prise loose information about the millions and millions of dollars the organization has received from third-parties (that would be Big Pharma) and distributed to its scientists and administrators.  The last time the NIH was forced to disgorge such information was back in 2005 in response to a Freedom of Information demand filed by the Associated Press.  The NIH, of course, is the preferred playground of Anthony Fauci, publicity hound and COVID scold par excellence.  Fauci, as has been noted many times at American Greatness, is the highest paid federal employee.  In 2021, his taxpayer-funded salary alone was $456,028.

Neil Oliver, W.H.O Assembles Pandemic Treaty to Control Global Human Parasites.  Comrade dissidents, in his weekly monologue Neil Oliver draws attention to the World Health Organization (WHO) effort to assemble the Global Pandemic Response Treaty, a collective pact with the industrious mission to control the threat of human parasites.  As Oliver notes, the objective of the W.H.O. mission is to coordinate a whole-of-planet approach, by giving instructions to all governmental signatories for how to best manage the problematic behavior of free-range citizens.  People are the dangerous carbon they seek to mitigate.  [Video clip]

Fauci Gets the Giggles When Asked Why White House is Spreading Disinformation About COVID Vaccine Availability.  Fake News CNN's Jake Tapper asks White House Chief Medical Advisor Anthony Fauci why the White House is sending out false information, aka 'disinformation', about when the COVID vaccines were available.  Fauci giggles, laughs and says "I have no idea."  [Video clip]

Pfizer COVID Vaccine Safety Varies from Lot to Lot.  By all accounts, Lauren Morgan Tweedale had a bubbly personality.  She was outgoing, loved to sing karaoke, and to go to the gym with her buddies.  Forty-seven years old, Tweedale was also trim and healthy.  So it was a huge shock to her family and friends when last year, on the morning of April 6th, 2021, she was found unresponsive in her bed.  The doctors told the family that Tweedale died of a sudden cardiac event.  However, just eight days before she died, Tweedale had gotten her first dose of the Pfizer mRNA vaccine against COVID-19.  "Like a well-oiled machine," she posted privately on Facebook, tagging the Oregon Convention Center in Portland.  "Nicely done, team!" The Epoch Times also verified her vaccination card.

Radio host injured by COVID jab says media 'don't want to hear' about adverse events.  A BBC radio host who suffered from painful adverse events after taking AstraZeneca's COVID shot has spoken out against media silence on injuries arising from the jabs.  BBC Kent Radio host Jules Serkin blasted mainstream media outlets in an interview with GB News Monday night, arguing that either the "media have been told to be quiet" on the topic of "vaccine" injuries or they "don't want to hear another side."

Pulitzer Prize-Winning Health Journalist Revealed the Real Purpose of Masks in 2018: Fear.  Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award winning journalist Laurie Garrett gave a refreshingly honest and clear-eyed assessment of the usefulness of masks in fighting coronavirus pandemics.  Unfortunately, her assessment, given as the Keynote Address at the National Academy of Medicine in December 2018, was given prior to the Covid-19 outbreak.  Garrett, a Council of Foreign Relations member, spilled the beans in a presentation called "From the 1918 Influenza Pandemic to 2009 H1N1 Pandemic to Now:  Is the World Ready to Respond to the Next Outbreak?"  After her presentation, which periodically cast doubt on the historical utility of general public masking around the world, she fielded a question from a member of the audience on such measures.  This was her candid response.  [Video clip]

People Who Pushed Idea of Universal Vaccination Are 'Guilty of Crimes Against Humanity': Former Pfizer VP.  Former Pfizer VP Michael Yeadon maintains that since the infection fatality ratio of COVID-19 has not been high, the vaccines should not have been mandated.  Moreover, he heavily blasted the corporate media mantras that designate these as safe, effective, and necessary to end the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.  Yeadon is a big pharma veteran with 32 years in the industry.  He worked as the head of allergy and respiratory research at Pfizer from 1995 to 2011 and is the former founder and CEO of Ziarco, a biotech company acquired by Novartis.  Furthermore, he has a doctorate in respiratory pharmacology and holds a Double First Class Honors degree in biochemistry and toxicology.  A shocking 1,223 deaths and 42,086 adverse events were reported to Pfizer from the first day of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine rollout on Dec. 1, 2020, to Feb. 28, 2021.

Dr. Robert Malone:  Resisting Covid Tyranny and the WEF's Great Reset.  In an in-depth interview with The New American, Dr. Robert Malone shared details of his intellectual journey from questioning the safety and efficacy of Covid vaccines to recognizing the intense efforts of the globalist forces aimed at establishing a totalitarian regime that would supersede national political structures.  Dr. Malone said that the driving force behind the effort is the World Economic Forum (WEF), whose members dominate supranational organizations, national governments and political parties, corporations, the media, and academia.  The goal of the policies that were implemented as a part of the Covid pandemic response was to accelerate the Great Reset preached by the forum's founder and chairman, Klaus Schwab.  Based on total control over information, the economy, and finances, and on the ideas of transhumanism and population control, the Great Reset becomes possible because of mass formation psychosis.  Malone argued that since this phenomenon captures both the populace and the leaders, it is paramount to wake people up, and he offered solutions for doing so.  [Video clip]

White House falsely claims 'no vaccine' was available when Biden took office.  The official White House Twitter account posted false COVID-19 information Thursday [5/12/2022], wrongly claiming there was "no vaccine available" when President Biden took office in January 2021.  "When President Biden took office, millions were unemployed and there was no vaccine available," the verified account tweeted to its 7 million followers Thursday.  "In the last 15 months, the economy has created 8.3 [million] jobs and the unemployment rate stands at 3.6% — the fastest decline in unemployment to start a President's term ever recorded," the tweet concluded.  But eagle-eyed critics were quick to point out that the 79-year-old Biden actually received his first dose of the vaccine on December 2020 — a month before he moved in at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Infant Drowns in Three Inches of Bathwater As Mom Faints One Day After AstraZeneca Jab.  A baby in the UK drowned in a bathtub after her mom, who'd received AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine a day earlier, fainted during the bath routine.  The incident occurred last March as the mom, lawyer Louise Atkinson, blacked out while giving 9-month-old Eleanor a bath at their home in Dorset.  Atkinson's husband James reportedly arrived home to find the bathroom door was blocked by his fainted wife's body, then entered the lavatory to find Eleanor blue and face down in about three inches of water.

CDC Admits It Can't Back Claim That Vaccines Don't Cause Variants.  The CDC's website calls it a myth that the vaccines cause variants. [...] The Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), a nonprofit, asked the CDC in Freedom of Information Act requests for documentation supporting the claim.  In one request, the group asked for "All documents sufficient to support that COVID-19 vaccines do not create or cause variants of the virus that causes COVID-19."  Another requested "All documents sufficient to support that the immunity conferred by COVID-19 vaccines does not contribute to virus evolution and the emergence of variants."  The CDC has now responded to both requests, saying a search "found no records responsive" to them.

Pew Survey Finds COVID Has Virtually Disappeared as a Major Concern For Americans.  Illustrating how the issue has largely disappeared, a new poll of Americans finds COVID to be the least of their concerns out of a list of 12 different subjects.  The survey was conducted by Pew Research between April 25 [and] May 1.  Just 19 percent of respondents said COVID was still a "very big problem," while 31 percent said it was a "small problem" and a further 12 percent said it was "not a problem at all."  In comparison, 70 percent of Americans said inflation was a "very big problem," with a further 23 percent describing it as a "moderately big problem."  Ten other issues, including violent crime, illegal immigration and the condition of infrastructure, all rank above COVID-19 in terms of being more of a concern.

Why can't these loathsome elites just give up the masked charade?  On a visit to DC this week I discovered something everybody might know.  Which is that dwellers in the swamp still wear masks.  Unlike most New Yorkers, the DC crowd still like to cover their faces as they walk down the streets.  If you get into a lift unmasked they still glare at you like New Yorkers did a couple of years ago. [...] No city wants to get going as much as this one.  But we're not back yet.  The city's office districts are still much quieter than they should be.  Too many companies are still worried about ordering their staff back to the office.  And too many young employees are still getting away with pretending that they are worried about returning to work because of the virus, when in fact it is purely about lifestyle.  One of the greatest con tricks ever.  And so there are still vast uninhabited swathes of office-space in the city.  With all the knock-on effects to local businesses that this has.  Not a good sign of things returning to normal.

Mainstream media focus on "hero passenger" Darren Harrison landing plane in Florida, while completely whitewashing the suddenly incapacitated pilot.  Everyone loves feel-good stories with a happy endings, especially in these times of universal deceit and subterfuge.  Now mainstream media are using said feel-good stories to coordinate and deflect attention from a very disturbing and well-established trend in the aviation industry.  Captain Bob Snow was an American Airlines pilot with over 30 years experience.  He was landing an Airbus A321 with 200 passengers at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport via Denver on April 9.  Just six minutes after touching down and taxiing the aircraft to Gate 6, Captain Snow suffered a sudden cardiac arrest.  In what can only be called a miraculous coincidence, the plane left Denver exactly six minutes earlier than it was supposed to leave.  Had the flight departed right on time, this story would have been international news.  It's also hard to look past the numerical anomaly herein — left Denver 6 minutes early, landed at Gate 6, cardiac arrest 6 minutes later.  Captain Snow posted a video that originally appeared on Rumble on April 19.  He said American Airlines forced all pilots to receive mRNA injections or be fired.  He received his on November 9.

Excess mortality by age
Feds and media [are] ignoring doubling of mortality among young and middle-aged adults in latest dataSomething is killing off large numbers of 25-to-54-year-olds in the United States, and the powers that be in government and the media are pretending it is not happening.  There is no visible effort to study the alarming statistics gathered by actuaries for the life insurance industry, which keeps track of deaths because they directly impact their bottom line through calins from the insured.  Aaron Kheriaty, MD spotted the alarming table [left] on page 23 of a report from the Society of Actuaries Research Institute.


White House Tells Such a Despicable Blatant Lie Even CNN and WaPo Bust Them.  How deep are the White House lies?  We see Joe Biden making up lies virtually every day.  But perhaps some of the most offensive lies that he and his administration tell are the ones that defy reality right in front of our faces.  Such as when White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told us that Kamala Harris was socially distancing from people during Ketanji Brown Jackson's ceremony (despite the pictures showing Harris hugging her), that there was no internal ceremony (despite pictures showing there was one), and that Harris wore a mask while inside despite White House posting a video that showed she wasn't).  They simply didn't care about telling such blatant lies because they are largely not held accountable for it.  I thought the Ketanji Brown Jackson lies were bad, defying what we could see right in front of our faces.  But the vaccine lie that the White House told just may beat those for audacity.

Fauci, Biden, Psaki Sued in Major Big Tech Collusion Lawsuit!  Things continue to get worse for the apparatchiks of the ruling regime:  now, in addition to losing the abortion battle and much of the mask battle in the courts at the same time that Elon Musk is taking a hammer to the censorship regime by buying Twitter, Fauci and Biden just got rocked by a massive lawsuit.  That lawsuit, filed last Thursday by Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, names Biden, Psaki, Dr. Fauci, and Nina Jankowicz (the Disinformation Board woman) as defendants and accuses them of colluding with Big Tech to crush certain messages on platforms like Facebook and YouTube under the guise of fighting "misinformation".

Just in time for the mid-term elections:
AP Interview:  US 'vulnerable' to COVID without new shots.  White House COVID-19 coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha issued a dire warning Thursday [5/12/2022] that the U.S. will be increasingly vulnerable to the coronavirus this fall and winter if Congress doesn't swiftly approve new funding for more vaccines and treatments.  In an Associated Press interview, Jha said Americans' immune protection from the virus is waning, the virus is adapting to be more contagious and booster doses for most people will be necessary — with the potential for enhanced protection from a new generation of shots.

Dr. Fauci Melts Down at Congressional Hearing: 'I'm Wondering Why You're Asking Me About Lockdowns'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci was among the public health officials called before Congress to testify on the Fiscal Year 2003 budget request for the National Institutes of Health (NIH).  When Fauci started getting heat for his disastrous track record, he fired back at his critics.  [Video clip]

Fauci To Be Placed Under Investigation After His Emails Are Released.  Back in March of this year, Anthony Fauci backtracked on his own hints that he would retire soon, asserting that the COVID pandemic is not yet over.  A day after he said 'I can't stay in this job forever,' Fauci seemed determined to stick around when asked on ABC's This Week if he was thinking of leaving.  He replied: 'I'm not so sure, George,' the director of the National Health Institute told anchor George Stephonaupolous.  'I want to make sure we're really out of this before I really seriously consider doing anything different.  We're still in this.'

Democrat Whose Offices Are Still Closed Due to COVID-19 Hosts Maskless Fundraising Soirée.  A Democratic congressman whose district offices remain closed to the public hosted a maskless fundraising party on Monday at his mansion in suburban Maryland.  President Joe Biden and Sen. Ben Cardin (D., Md.) attended the evening soirée at the residence of Rep. David Trone (D., Md.), the multimillionaire owner of Total Wine who is one of the wealthiest members of Congress.  Photos from the event show guests mingling without masks and posing for selfies with the president.  Social distancing guidelines were ignored.  The Democratic fundraiser took place less than two weeks after the White House Correspondents' Dinner, another mask-free gathering of elites that resulted in a number of journalists and Biden administration officials testing positive for COVID-19.

WHO director calls China's zero-COVID policy 'unsustainable' and gets censored for it.  There was a time in the early days of the pandemic when World Health Organization director Tedros Ghebreyeseus seemed to be China's best friend and chief defender.  And China in turn defended the WHO. Only belatedly did the WHO acknowledge China hadn't been as forthcoming as they had initially claimed.  But gradually the situation seems to have changed.  Last summer Tedros agreed his organization had ruled out the lab leak theory too quickly.  "I have worked in the lab, and lab accidents happen," he said as part of an effort to pressure China to provide more information about the origin of the virus.

Clueless, pharma-infested FDA now says independent media is "leading cause of death in US".  The leading cause of death in the United States today is not heart disease but rather "independent media," according to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) chief Dr. Robert Cardiff.  A Joe Biden appointee, Califf claimed during a recent appearance on CNN that independent media outlets must be purged from existence immediately if there is to be any hope of ending the scourge of death throughout the country.  Only corporate-controlled, government-approved fake news outlets like CNN should be allowed to exist and spread information online, Califf maintains.  Allowing free speech, he says, will result in "deadly misinformation" spreading and influencing people's health decisions.

When it comes to COVID, illegals outrank the military.  Regardless where one stands on the issue of mandates, the double standard when it comes to the new vaccine policy announced for migrants is hard to accept.  In the midst of firing members of the military for not getting jabbed, the Biden administration has declared the pandemic over for purposes of turning migrants away from the Southern Border (i.e., use of Title 42) and stated it will no longer be implementing COVID mitigation measures such as testing and vaccines for migrants entering the country.  The idea that those not legally in the country are entitled to more liberty and autonomy than American citizens may strike many as puzzling.

NIH director confirms agency hid early COVID genes at request of Chinese scientists.  National Institutes of Health acting director Lawrence Tabak confirmed to lawmakers Wednesday that US health officials concealed early genomic sequences of COVID-19 at the request of Chinese scientists — but insisted the data remains on file.  Tabak told a House Appropriations subcommittee that the NIH "eliminated from public view" the data from the pandemic epicenter in Wuhan, China, before adding that researchers can still access it via an archaic "tape drive."  Vanity Fair recently reported that the information was hidden in response to a request from Chinese scientists, despite potentially resolving whether the virus leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology or passed naturally from animals to humans.  Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.) asked Tabek to explain why US officials would comply with such a request.

Scandals in the NIH.  Two stories about the National Institutes of Health hit the news today.  The first arose from testimony by acting NIH director Lawrence Tabak before a House Appropriations subcommittee.  Tabak admitted that NIH hid genetic information about the covid-19 virus that could have shed light on its origin, at the behest of the Chinese Communists:  [Quote (from the article immediately above) omitted for brevity.]  I do not understand why a federal agency would be more loyal to the Chinese government than to the American people.  But that is what we have come to in today's administrative state. [...] So the information exists, you just can't see it.  There is more at the link about bureaucrats' hostility toward data that suggested the virus came from a Wuhan laboratory leak.

Democrats Silent as Republicans Rip Into Secret Royalty Checks to Fauci, Hundreds of NIH Scientists.  Top Democratic leaders with oversight of the National Institutes for Health (NIH) are keeping quiet about the $350 million in secret payments to agency leaders like Dr. Anthony Fauci and hundreds of its scientists.  The Epoch Times received no responses from multiple requests to Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) and Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.) for comment on a report by a non-profit government watchdog estimating that Fauci, former NIH director Francis Collins, and hundreds of NIH scientists got as much as $350 million in undisclosed royalty payments from pharmaceutical and other private firms between 2010 and 2020.  The revelations from Open the Books, which were first reported on May 9 by The Epoch Times, are based on thousands of pages of documents the group obtained from NIH in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit in federal court.  The suit was filed by Judicial Watch on behalf of Open the Books.

'Fully vaxxed' Bill Gates infected with COVID after touting jabs as key to 'getting rid' of virus.  Microsoft founder and pro-abortion billionaire Bill Gates has tested positive for COVID-19 despite having received at least three doses of mRNA shots.  "I've tested positive for COVID.  I'm experiencing mild symptoms and am following the experts' advice by isolating until I'm healthy again," Gates tweeted Tuesday.  "I'm fortunate to be vaccinated and boosted and have access to testing and great medical care," he added.  At 66, Gates is eligible for two mRNA boosters, although it's unclear if he's received both.

Suddenly Bill Gates confirms what we've been saying all along:  Covid is "kind of like the flu" with a "low fatality rate".  Billionaire eugenicist Bill Gates is finally admitting that he was dead wrong about the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19).  The Microsoft co-founder says that he and other self-proclaimed "authorities" on the matter overreacted to the virus, which is not nearly as much of a threat as he originally claimed.  "It wasn't until early February, when I was in a meeting, that experts of the foundation said, 'there's no way' that Covid-19 could have been contained," Gates recently stated.  "At that point, we didn't really understand the fatality rate.  We didn't understand that it's a fairly low fatality rate, and that it's a disease mainly of the elderly, kind of like the flu, although it's a bit different than that."

Why aren't we allowed to question the 2020 election?  [Scroll down]  The Biden Regime already issued a dire warning for the fall, with this key line that shows this is all smoke and mirrors:  ["]In forecasting 100 million potential infections during a cold-weather wave later this year and early next, the official did not present new data or make a formal projection.["] [...] Within days of the chaos of mail-in voting, ballot harvesting, and dropbox stuffing, we were told it was in fact the "most secure in history."  One of the 'debunking' stories had a great quote that 'extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.'  If the 2020 election was the "most secure in history," then that extraordinary claim needs some extraordinary proof.

Acting NIH Director Admits Appearance of Conflict of Interest in Secret Royalty Payments to Fauci, Scientists.  Undisclosed royalty payments estimated at $350 million from pharmaceutical and other firms to Dr. Anthony Fauci and hundreds of National Institutes for Health (NIH) scientists do present "an appearance of a conflict of interest," according to the agency's acting director.  Dr. Lawrence Tabak, who took over as NIH Director following the December 2021 resignation of the agency's long-time leader, Dr. Francis Collins, told a House Appropriations Committee subcommittee that federal law allows the royalty payments but he conceded they don't look ethical.  Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.) told Tabak that "right now, I think the NIH has a credibility problem and this only feeds into this, and I'm only just learning about this.  People in my district say 'well, so-and-so has a financial interest, or they don't like Ivermectin because they aren't benefitting from that royalty ... You may have very sound scientific reasons for recommending a medicine or not, but the idea that people get a financial benefit from certain research that's been done and grants that were awarded, that is to me the height of the appearance of a conflict of interest."

Coming soon: a defamation suit against Twitter.  In Ireland.  Defamation, per Oxford Languages:  "the action of damaging the good reputation of someone; slander or libel."  In banning me from the platform for supposedly violating "our COVID-19 misinformation rules," a statement it made to multiple news outlets last year, Twitter did not merely severely damage my reputation as a journalist.  It tarred me as a menace to public health.  I am not exaggerating.

Sen. Johnson Opens Probe Into CDC Tracking Americans Through Phone Location Data.  Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) is investigating the CDC for tracking million of American through phone location data.  "Just because data exists, doesn't mean that the government should be using it to track Americans, I would think that that really raises some very serious constitutional issues," Senator Ron Johnson told John Solomon [...].  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention used phone location data to track millions Americans in 2021.  The CDC monitored curfew zones, churches, schools, neighbor-to-neighbor visits and trips to pharmacies through SafeGraph, a controversial data broker.

7-Year-Old Boy Dies from Heart Attack After Pfizer Injection.  On 16 February 2022, a 7-year-old boy in Seattle Washington died from a heart attack with blood clots in his coronary artery and liver.  He died 13 days after being injected with a Pfizer "vaccine."  He suffered shock and cardiac arrest.  He could not be resuscitated and died in the emergency department, APAR TV reported.  His death was recorded on the US VAERS database.

New Study & Confidential Pfizer Docs. prove COVID "Vaccine Shedding" has been and still is occurring with dangerous consequences.  A new study conducted by scientists at the University of Colorado confirms the vast majority of humanity have had absolutely no choice in the matter of whether they wish to get the Covid-19 injection or not because the vaccinated have been transmitting antibodies generated by the injections through aerosols.  The findings should however come as no surprise, because a confidential Pfizer document had already confirmed exposure to the mRNA injections was perfectly possible by skin-to-skin contact and breathing the same air as someone who had been given the Covid-19 jab.  They also unfortunately add weight to the claims made by Dr Phillipe van Welbergen, who demonstrated that graphene, an alleged undisclosed ingredient of the Covid-19 injections, is being transmitted from the vaccinated to the not-vaccinated and destroying red blood cells and causing dangerous blood clots.

Substack Investigation:  Fauci's Royalties And The $350 Million Royalty Payment Stream HIDDEN By NIH.  Last year, the National Institutes of Health — Anthony Fauci's employer — doled out $30 billion in government grants to roughly 56,000 recipients.  That largess of taxpayer money buys a lot of favor and clout within the scientific, research, and healthcare industries.  However, in our breaking investigation, we found hundreds of millions of dollars in payments also flow the other way.  These are royalty payments from third-party payers (think pharmaceutical companies) back to the NIH and individual NIH scientists.  We estimate that between fiscal years 2010 and 2020, more than $350 million in royalties were paid by third-parties to the agency and NIH scientists — who are credited as co-inventors.  Because those payments enrich the agency and its scientists, each and every royalty payment could be a potential conflict of interest and needs disclosure.

15 fully vaxxed tennis players withdraw from Miami Open due to serious health issues.  Some of the world's top athletes are either collapsing on the field/court or becoming too weak to play their favorite sport.  At the Miami Open, 15 fully-vaccinated players withdrew during the competition, leaving spectators baffled.  Some of the crowd's favorites had to leave the competition early, including Paula Badosa from Spain and Jannik Sinner from Italy.  They retired from their quarterfinal contests on the same day.  Earlier, Rafael Nadal had to leave the court for treatment after experiencing chest pain during his match against Taylor Fritz in the Indian Wells final.  He was able to continue, but was clearly struggling with his breathing as the unheralded Fritz completed an upset and handed Nadal his first loss this season.  All three players succumbed to the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine mandate imposed by the Australian Open in 2021.

All-cause death rate 52 times higher among vaccinated children than unvaccinated children.  Data from the Office for National Statistics in the U.K. showed that British children aged 10 to 14 injected with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine had an all-cause death rate of 238 per 100,000 from January 1 to October 31, 2021.  That was about 52 times higher than the death rate among unvaccinated children from the same age group, which was only 4.58 per 100,000.  Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported last month that 169 children aged one month to 16 years had developed "acute hepatitis of unknown origin."  Most of the children were from the U.K., Europe and Israel.  The U.K. Health Security Agency also updated its data recently, adding 34 more cases to its tally.  Ten of the children required liver transplants.

Tennessee Makes Ivermectin Available Without Prescription.  Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed a bill on Apr. 22, 2022, allowing Ivermectin to be dispensed without a prescription.  The new law states, "a pharmacist, in good faith, may provide Ivermectin to a patient who is eighteen (18) years of age or older pursuant to a valid collaborative pharmacy practice agreement containing a non-patient-specific prescriptive order and standardized procedures developed and executed by one (1) or more authorized prescribers."  Introduced by Sen. Frank Niceley (R-Strawberry Plains) on Jan. 31, Senate Bill 2188 was co-sponsored by Sen. Rusty Crowe (R-Johnson City).  The amended version of the bill signed by Gov. Lee will create a standard procedure for pharmacists to easily dispense Ivermectin to patients while protecting a pharmacist or doctor from being held liable for doing so.

Pfizer documents:  Over 1,200 people died during Pfizer vaccine trials.  Following the release of the Pfizer documents, it's now confirmed that 1,223 people died within the first 28 days after being inoculated with the BioNTech Pfizer vaccine during trials — and it was still approved for use. [...] Far from being 'safe and effective,' Pfizer's documents prove otherwise: the BioNTech Pfizer vaccine is perhaps the most ineffectual, dangerous 'vaccine' ever brought to market.  Besides slaughtering over 1,000 people in under a month, trials also produced hundreds of potentially fatal side effects, created fertility issues, and were only 12-15 percent effective at preventing infection overall and subsequently dropped to less than 1 percent — despite health officials claiming it would be over 90 percent effective.  They were lying.

Evidence The Triple Vaxxed Are Developing AIDS.  It's a common misconception that Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is only caused by the HIV virus.  This simply isn't true.  AIDS has many different causes, and unfortunately it looks like the Covid-19 injections should be added to the list of causes, because official UK Government data suggests the Triple Vaccinated population in England have been developing the condition since the beginning of 2022.

Fiction Disguised as Science to Promote Hatred.  The legacy media has been like pigs at a trough today and yesterday with the publication of an atrocious 'peer-reviewed' 'scientific' article by Dr. David Fisman, Dr. Ashleigh Tuite, and a graduate student.  After all, with raw public health data unable to support the only COVID-19 narrative that has been deemed acceptable, fresh fuel was apparently needed.  Lots of media outlets have been reporting on this study; one of them being CTV News. [...] This kind of messaging will only fuel hatred and segregation and the potential development of harmful policies.  And it is all in the name of bad science.  As a researcher who has published and reviewed many scientific papers, I can tell you that the article by Fisman, et al. is the worst one that I have ever seen.

Call for retraction of paper.  First of all, please refer to this thorough and excellent review of the paper by Byram Bridle, and a list of scientific reasons why the aforementioned paper should never have been published.  This paper indeed went through peer review.  Who were the reviewers? [...] The point of publishing a low level piece of writing like this is to create division.  It is that simple.  There is no scientific merit in this piece (I will demonstrate this) and the message is not science-based:  the message is that the 'unvaccinated' need to be 'vaccinated'.

Heart Inflammation More Prevalent Among Vaccinated Than Unvaccinated:  Study.  Heart inflammation requiring hospital care was more common among people who received COVID-19 vaccines than those who did not, according to a new study of tens of millions of Europeans.  Rates of myocarditis or pericarditis, two types of heart inflammation, are above the levels in an unvaccinated cohort, pegged at 38 per 100,000 after receipt of a second dose of a vaccine built on messenger RNA (mRNA) technology in males aged 16 to 24 — the group studies have shown are most at risk of the post-vaccination condition — researchers with health agencies in Finland, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway found.  "These extra cases among men aged 16 [to] 24 correspond to a 5 times increased risk after Comirnaty and 15 times increased risk after Spikevax compared to unvaccinated," Dr. Rickard Ljung, a professor and physician at the Swedish Medical Products Agency and one of the principal investigators of the study, told The Epoch Times in an email.

What's Killing People If There is No Coronavirus?  Acidosis and Red Blood Cell Transmutation.  Ninety government agencies and laboratories have not provided proof that the bugaboo Coronavirus exists when requested by independent bio-statistician Christine Massey.  Additionally, statistician Genevieve Briand has found that there were no excess deaths (all causes) in 2021 when the death data was adjusted for the bulge of the Baby Boom elderly generation in the overall population.  This runs against the government and media created perception of reality that there is a Coronavirus epidemic.  But when you mention that there is no coronavirus to the average Joe or Jane, they typically say with absolute certainty that they personally know someone in their family or close associates who had died of Coronavirus.  Cognitive dissonance is a social psychological process of doubling down on our beliefs in the face of contradictory evidence or uncertainty.  But anecdotal knowledge is not reliable for medical purposes when we are surrounded by contradictory signals that do not interpret themselves.  Furthermore, there is no research or books that attempt to credibly answer the gnawing question: what is killing people if there is no verifiable Coronavirus?

China's secrecy on COVID's origins won't impact US lifting tariffs, Psaki says.  White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that US officials are looking at repealing tariffs on Chinese goods "separately" from any US pressure on China to come clean about the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic and whether the virus leaked from a Wuhan lab.  Psaki, responding to a briefing question from The [New York] Post, said a review of Trump administration tariffs is focused on consumer prices, and not on the grim approaching milestone of 1 million US coronavirus deaths.

Vaccine-Injured 22-year-old Diagnosed with PoTS and FND.  Adam Clarke, a 22-year-old from Farnham, United Kingdom, received his first Pfizer Covid injection dose in February 2021. Clark had a serious adverse reaction and is "still suffering 7 months later," he wrote in February on his Go Fund Me page.  Initially, he felt faint and nauseous but over time he developed neurological symptoms "such as tremors, numbness in my arms and legs, vertigo, headaches and nausea."  He also developed chest pains and a rapid heart rate.  He went to accident and emergency ("A&E") several times but was told he was having "a panic attack and that [he] was just anxious."  He then consulted "private" doctors, in other words outside of the NHS. He has consulted a neurologist, a cardiologist, and a functional doctor.  The neurologist diagnosed him with functional neurological disorder ("FND"), and the cardiologist diagnosed him with postural tachycardia syndrome ("PoTS").  But Clarke doesn't feel the consultants have got to the bottom of all his symptoms yet.

Beloved And Fully Vaccinated Gorilla Dies Unexpectedly Due To 'Multiple Organ Failure'.  Gladys Porter Zoo staff are mourning the loss of a Western Lowland Gorilla who died last week.  The zoo issued a release on Wednesday commemorating the life of Martha, a gorilla who died unexpectedly on Tuesday, April 19.  Zookeepers noticed Martha was slow to respond on the morning of April 19.  She was being treated for a urinary tract infection but no signs of a more serious illness were present.  Martha passed away later that night.  A preliminary inspection after her death revealed Martha suffered from multiple issues.

N.J. budget fight brewing after Murphy grabbed power to spend $3 billion in federal COVID relief funds.  New Jersey lawmakers have less than eight weeks to negotiate a state budget, and one glaring question lingers:  Will Gov. Phil Murphy give the state Legislature a say in spending billions in federal coronavirus relief money?  The Garden State received $6.24 billion through the American Rescue Plan signed by President Joe Biden in March 2021.  Most of that money remains unspent, and the Murphy administration has yet to release a detailed plan for more than $3 billion that is still unallocated.

Preventable Deaths and D3.  The inconvenient truth is that even at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, a very simple, inexpensive and effective treatment was available that could have saved the majority of lives lost.  All that the WHO and public health bureaucracy had to do was to recommend and support people taking sufficient Vitamin D3.  This failure to act traces back to the unscientific bias and pro-vaccine obsession of Dr. Anthony Fauci.  And once again the legacy media, while being paid by the US government and the pharmaceutical industry to promote vaccination, acted by censoring, defaming and suppressing the ability of physicians to inform people of scientific truth.  The disease you suffered, the loss of life among your family and friends, could have been greatly reduced by simply getting enough Vitamin D3.  This is another example of what happens when unelected bureaucrats are allowed to control free speech.  Crimes against humanity.

Your next pandemic will be controlled by the WHO.  The WHO is a disaster.  Early treatment (outpatient) was the right way to handle this pandemic and the WHO did absolutely nothing in that area.  Only a completely inept agency wouldn't have had that as one of the pillars of a pandemic response.  Then they wasted a ton of time testing a bunch of drugs that could never have worked on inpatients, costing lives and wasting more time.  Why were they doing clinical trials on drugs where there was no anecdotal evidence of a benefit?  And of course they endorsed the vaccines and continued to this day to NOT endorse early treatment, even such obvious drugs like fluvoxamine with a 12x mortality benefit and a systematic review and meta-analysis (the highest level of evidence-based medicine) published in JAMA.  These people are inept.

Effect of Early Treatment with Ivermectin among Patients with Covid-19.  A total of 3515 patients were randomly assigned to receive ivermectin (679 patients), placebo (679), or another intervention (2157).  Overall, 100 patients (14.7%) in the ivermectin group had a primary-outcome event, as compared with 111 (16.3%) in the placebo group (relative risk, 0.90; 95% Bayesian credible interval, 0.70 to 1.16).  Of the 211 primary-outcome events, 171 (81.0%) were hospital admissions.  Findings were similar to the primary analysis in a modified intention-to-treat analysis that included only patients who received at least one dose of ivermectin or placebo (relative risk, 0.89; 95% Bayesian credible interval, 0.69 to 1.15) and in a per-protocol analysis that included only patients who reported 100% adherence to the assigned regimen (relative risk, 0.94; 95% Bayesian credible interval, 0.67 to 1.35).  There were no significant effects of ivermectin use on secondary outcomes or adverse events.

What 'Moving On' Has Cost Us.  Republicans have traditionally conformed to the "move on" mentality after every election.  After his 1960 loss, Richard Nixon declined to pursue JFK's obvious election chicanery.  Republicans may score points with voters by complaining about democrats' election and governing abuses.  But when they must choose to actually do something about it or move on, they move on.  The same theme is playing out regarding the COVID theater of the absurd that devastated the economy, granted Democrat authorities virtual dictatorial control and cost thousands of citizens their jobs, constitutional protections, and in far too many cases, their lives.  In the mold of Donald Trump, Kentucky's Sen. Rand Paul has vowed to bring the effective ringleader of the COVID scam to justice by promising to investigate Anthony Fauci's questionable handling of the crisis.  Anyone familiar with Paul doesn't doubt that he intends to bring the Senate's investigative powers to bear on Fauci.  Anyone familiar with the Republican party's track record also knows the party will not allow such an investigation to extend to indictments of Fauci and co-conspirators, irrespective of what is uncovered.

Anthony Fauci: 'We Are Still in the Middle of a Pandemic'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci has warned the world is "still in the middle of a pandemic," less than two weeks after stating the U.S. was "certainly ... out of the pandemic phase."  "You said last week that we are out of the 'acute component' of the pandemic phase.  In real terms, what does that mean for Americans?" Foreign Policy's Ravi Agrawal asked, prompting Fauci to say that "we are still in the middle of a pandemic."

FDA restricts J&J's COVID-19 vaccine due to blood clot risk.  U.S. regulators on Thursday [5/5/2022] strictly limited who can receive Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine due to the ongoing risk of rare but serious blood clots.  The Food and Drug Administration said the shot should only be given to adults who cannot receive a different vaccine or specifically request J&J's vaccine.  U.S. authorities for months have recommended that Americans starting their COVID-19 vaccinations use the Pfizer or Moderna shots instead.  FDA officials said in a statement that they decided to restrict J&J's vaccine after taking another look at data on the risk of life-threatening blood clots within two weeks of vaccination.

Malone And McCullough Speak Out On Pfizer, CDC.  [Tweets]  Could this be another issue the Zhou administration is trying to hide with their bogus abortion brouhaha?

What Do We Know About COVID So Far?  With all the thousands of studies bombarding the medical community, it's helpful to set our microscope aside and look at the bigger picture.  It's virtually certain that the virus was engineered in Wuhan with financial and technical assistance directed by that highly competent bureaucrat, Anthony Fauci.  But that doesn't tell us what we should expect as the virus moves through society.  For that, we must look at the science.  And I don't mean "I am science" Fauci.  I mean real scientific data, something with which Fauci has little acquaintance.  Perhaps we should start with that great scientist, Oprah Winfrey, who recently opined that ending the mask mandate on airliners was "premature."

Leftists: Ivermectin Is For Horses... But If You Want An Abortion, Talk To Your Veterinarian.  Remember that time when the left and their media scolded folks like Joe Rogan and Donald Trump for suggesting that the drug ivermectin wasn't only for deworming animals but was effective in treating COVID? And remember that they launched those attacks despite the fact that a Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded to ivermectin developers for its remarkable effects on humans? [...] Thanks to the utter hysteria of leftists regarding the apparent upcoming demise of Roe V Wade as first reported by Politico, those same folks are now recommending that women consider accessing the drug Misoprostol to induce abortions, a drug which is used for treating horses suffering from internal ulcers, but which can also be used to kickstart the destruction of an early-stage pregnancy.

Unfollow the science.  Each time there has been either an imposition or a renewal of COVID-19 mitigation measures, we are offered the same reflexive justification for these decisions.  We are told we must "follow the science."  This ubiquitous refrain has become the latest iteration of that most convenient of debate surrogates: the unassailable maxim.  Merely invoking it places one firmly on the side of all sensible people and against the "anti-science" hordes.  At least, that's what we tell ourselves.  The truth is, science is a counselor, not a leader.  Science is simply information.  One cannot "follow the science" any more than one can "follow the library."  If one proposes a policy, science can be helpful in implementing it effectively.  But one must first propose the policy.

Anthony Fauci, Who Is Not A Legal Expert, Criticizes Judge For Lacking Medical Expertise.  Since a federal judge struck down the federal mask mandate, commentators have parsed the decision from both left and right, claiming the ruling was legally suspect.  While their legal arguments are wrong, at least they're not as wrong as Anthony Fauci's response before (where else?) the TV cameras.  On April 18, Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle ruled that the Centers for Disease Control mask mandate for public transportation exceeded the agency's delegated powers and violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), the law that governs rule-making by federal agencies.  Mizelle found the mask mandate was not within the regulatory powers Congress granted to federal health authorities.

CDC report admits 74.2 million people in the USA have not had a single dose of a Covid-19 Vaccine, & another 157 million have refused a 2nd or 3rd dose.  President Joe Biden has lied to the American people and is still lying to the American people.  In July 2021, Biden falsely stated that "You're not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations," and "If you're vaccinated, you're not going to be hospitalized, you're not going to be in the ICU unit, and you're not going to die."  Then in December 2021, Biden falsely claimed "This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated.  The unvaccinated.  Not the vaccinated, the unvaccinated.  That's the problem.  Everybody talks about freedom and not to have a shot or have a test.  Well guess what?  How about patriotism?  How about making sure that you're vaccinated, so you do not spread the disease to anyone else."  There is plenty of evidence out there that proves the above statements made by President Biden are outright lies, but the most hilarious evidence of all must be the recent outbreak that occurred due to journalists and Government leaders attending the 'Gridiron Dinner at the beginning of April 2022.  An annual event in Washington DC.  All guests at the event were required to show proof of vaccination.  A week later at least 72 of the 630 fully vaccinated/boosted guests tested positive for Covid-19.

12,548 Children have suffered a Serious Adverse Event due to the COVID Vaccines in the USA;.  The data shows that even children under the age of 6 months old are suffering adverse reactions to the Covid-19 injections suggesting this is either through being breast-fed by vaccinated mothers, or over-eager doctors/nurses/vaccine administrators vaccinating children who are not legally eligible.  As of 22nd April 2022, two children under 6-months-old have sadly died, as well as another 4 children between the ages of 1 and 5.

White House Correspondents' Dinner COVID outbreak begins.  Attendees of Saturday night's White House Correspondents' Dinner have started testing positive for COVID-19, after the comedic headliner Trevor Noah joked that they were attending 'the nation's most distinguished superspreader event.'  Most notably, ABC News' Jonathan Karl tested positive Monday night, Politico first reported, after being seated next to Kim Kardashian at the dinner and briefly interacting with President Joe Biden.  'He tested positive for COVID Monday night, but tested negative on Saturday afternoon before the White House Correspondents' Dinner by medically-supervised staff,' a person familiar with the matter told Politico.  'He had no symptoms on Saturday.  Jon is currently isolating and participating in contact tracing.'

Blinken tests positive for COVID, latest Biden Cabinet official to contract virus.  Secretary of State Antony Blinken tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, becoming the latest Biden administration Cabinet official to contract the virus.  "Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken tested positive for COVID-19 this afternoon via a PCR test.  The Secretary is fully vaccinated and boosted against the virus and is experiencing only mild symptoms.  He tested negative on Tuesday and again as recently as this morning," State Department spokesman Ned Price said in a statement.

Covid Is the Biggest Lie in The World's History and Prof Michel Chossudovsky proves it.  The biggest lie in World history: there never was a pandemic.  The database is flawed.  The Covid mandates including the "vaccine" are invalid.  Destabilising the social, political and economic structure of 190 sovereign countries cannot constitute a "solution" to combating the virus.  But that was the imposed "solution" which was implemented in several stages from the very outset of the corona crisis in January 2020.  It's the destruction of people's lives.  It is the destabilisation of civil society.  Fake science was supportive of this devastating agenda.  The lies were sustained by a massive media disinformation campaign. 24/7, incessant and repetitive "Covid alerts" in the course of the last two years.  The historic 11 March 2020 lockdown triggered economic and social chaos worldwide.  It was an act of "economic warfare":  a war against humanity.

Fully Vaccinated & Boosted Celebrities and Journalists are Coming Down With Covid After WHCD.  Fully vaccinated and twice boosted celebrities, journalists, and members of the ruling class are coming down with COVID-19 after the White House Correspondents' Dinner.  One notable name not in attendance was Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House's head medical tyrant top medical adviser.  Fauci had originally been scheduled to attend the dinner but decided to pull out due to concern about the virus.  The WHCA required attendees to be fully vaccinated and show proof of a negative COVID-19 test from the day of the event but declined to install UV light air cleaners that experts say could have helped curb the spread of the virus.  The event also did not require masks, according to a report by The Daily Caller.  But even with all of that, the fully vaccinated are coming down with the disease they were vaccinated against.  [Tweet]

Lock Him Up: How Fauci facilitated treason between the U.S. and Communist China.  New documents obtained by The National Pulse show that Tony Fauci of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) greased the wheels for a treasonous relationship between the United States and Communist China as it pertains to bioweapons research and development.  We now know that Galveston National Laboratory (GNL), a Fauci project, forged an agreement with the infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), granting the latter the ability to force the former to "destroy and/or return the secret files, materials and equipment without any backups."  GNL has maintained a multi-year collaborative relationship with the WIV, we also now know.  This included hosting exchange programs and training seminars at the WIV's Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) facility where some believe the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) was created and released.

The CDC Spied on Americans by Purchasing Location Data for Tens of Millions of Phones.  "I always feel like somebody's watching me," sang Rockwell in his catchy '80s hit.  If you feel the same way, you're probably right.  A Vice Motherboard report published Tuesday claims that the Centers For Disease Control (CDC) bought cell phone data for tens of millions of phones owned by Americans to track compliance with COVID lockdown orders and vaccination efforts.  You know things have jumped the shark when a government organization ostensibly set up to control disease resorts to spying on Americans.

A top California official pushed hard for a $600-million mask deal.  Fraud claims followed.  In the frantic first weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic, three companies promised California officials that they could secure millions of protective masks in exchange for $1.6 billion in no-bid government contracts.  Each effort ended badly for the state.  Two years later, lawsuits stemming from the failed contracts provide a glimpse into the dealmaking — including how California Controller Betty Yee, a two-term Democrat with no formal role in the contracting process, worked behind the scenes to help a pair of political operatives land a deal that turned out to be one of the state's most flawed.  The $600-million contract with Blue Flame Medical LLC, a healthcare supplies startup, was later flagged as a case of possible fraud, and the state was forced to claw back its massive upfront payment.

Does the COVID Jab Kill More People Than It Saves?  According to U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data, more than 1 million excess deaths — that is, deaths in excess of the historical average — have been recorded since the COVID-19 pandemic began two years ago, and this cannot be explained by COVID-19.  Deaths from heart disease, high blood pressure, dementia and many other illnesses rose during that time.  "We've never seen anything like it," Robert Anderson, CDC's head of mortality statistics, told The Washington Post in mid-February 2022.  According to University of Warwick researchers, "the scale of excess non-COVID deaths is large enough for it to be seen as its own pandemic."  A number of explanations have been offered, including the fact that lockdowns and other COVID restrictions discouraged or prevented people from seeking care.  But another, less discussed factor may also be at play.

CDC Announces Long Term Extension for Biden Transporation Mask Mandate, No Expiration Date.  Previously a federal judge overturned the federal mask mandate for transportation, thereby allowing travelers to make their own choices.  The DOJ has appealed that decision after the CDC said it wanted the mask mandate to remain in place.  The status of that litigation is unknown.  Today [5/3/2022], the CDC has announced a semi-permanent extension of the federal transportation mask mandate with no expiration date noted.  That means all travelers on airplanes, trains, busses and ridesharing will be required to wear facemasks again, including inside the terminals and operational hubs of those transportation nodes, pending the outcome of the DOJ appeal to the federal court.

MSNBC analyst claims Democrats are saviors of the American people.  [Scroll down]  The only "story" the Democrats tell is a fictional one.  It is disinformation, their specialty.  They stole our liberty, bodily autonomy, health, and life in many cases, via their lockdowns and mandates.  They stole our livelihoods — and hindered our pursuit of happiness by denying us the ability to visit family members, travel freely, and attend weddings and funerals.  They stole our breath, money and assets, votes, confidence in our institutions/media/elected and unelected officials, and our safety, security, and sanity.

Follow the evidence, not the "science".  A frequently heard piece of advice over the past few years is "follow the science." [...] During the COVID lockdowns, government authorities such as Anthony Fauci stole our freedoms from us on the basis of "science," but with virtually no solid evidence.  He and his minions didn't even bother to look for evidence.  Shooting from the hip, they based their various mandates on simplistic, ill-founded assumptions that we now know were totally false.  They continued to enforce those mandates for more than two years, long after it was clear they were useless and doing immeasurable harm.  They refused to entertain any disagreement.  To admit they had been mistaken all along was out of the question.  Masks are a prime example of how wrong simplistic thinking can be.  It is easy to believe that masks can reduce the transmission of an airborne disease.  However, regarding COVID, abundant evidence proves that they do not.  Nor is there any real evidence that "social distancing" or wiping down surfaces reduces the number of cases.  Anthony Fauci claims that he and science are synonymous.  Can he claim that he and evidence are synonymous?

Between Natural and Vaccine Antibodies, When is Enough Enough?  Does COVID have an end, as in a final chapter or act?  Or will it be like a movie theme that keeps spitting out sequels, each one worse than the last one, and none even close to the first movie that started the franchise?  Think of Star Wars or Fast and Furious.  COVID sequels are the endless variants, starting with Greek letters, now with simply a soup of letters and numbers denoting the current strain of interest.  As viruses mutate, they generally become more contagious but less lethal, as much of the population by this time has gained natural immunity from previous infection.  This also serves to prolong the life course of the virus that would rather spread far and wide as opposed to killing its host, stopping spread.  COVID cases numbers are up, but what does that really mean?  We see endless tweets from politicians testing positive, almost all of them fully vaccinated and boosted, feeling fine, expressing thanks for the vaccines, using almost identical verbiage in their tweets.

Many Broadway theaters will stop requiring vaccination proof.  Broadway theaters are ending the policy of requiring customers to show proof of vaccination.  The Broadway League says in a statement that beginning Sunday, the owners and operators of all 41 Broadway theaters are extending the mask requirement at least through the end of May but many will no longer check for vaccination status.  The announcement doesn't specify which theaters are ending the practice.

The CDC paid $420,000 to track tens of millions of cell phones and see who went to schools and churches in the pandemic.  The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention paid for location data harvested from millions of cell phones to track compliance with COVID-19 lockdown measures, according to a new report.  The CDC paid $420,000 for a year of access to the cell phone location data from the data brokerage SafeGraph, according to documents reported by Vice News on Tuesday [5/3/2022].  The data was aggregated, meaning that it was intended to show general trends rather than the movements of specific phones, however the move still set off alarm bells with some privacy advocates.

CDC Tracked Millions of Phones to See If Americans Followed COVID Lockdown Orders.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) bought access to location data harvested from tens of millions of phones in the United States to perform analysis of compliance with curfews, track patterns of people visiting K-12 schools, and specifically monitor the effectiveness of policy in the Navajo Nation, according to CDC documents obtained by Motherboard.  The documents also show that although the CDC used COVID-19 as a reason to buy access to the data more quickly, it intended to use it for more general CDC purposes.

Pfizer/BioNTech Study Found Lipid Nanoparticles Materials Outside Injection Site in Test Animals.  Judicial Watch announced today [5/2/2022] that it received 466 pages of records from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regarding biodistribution studies and related data for the COVID-19 vaccines that show a key component of the vaccines developed by Pfizer/BioNTech, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), were found outside the injection site, mainly the liver, adrenal glands, spleen and ovaries of test animals, eight to 48 hours after injection.

Masks may have caused more Covid deaths.  A newly published, peer-reviewed study in Cureus looked to see if there was a correlation between mask compliance and COVID-19 outcomes in Europe.  The study was undertaken at the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil.  The authors noted that previous trials about mask effectiveness had produced mixed results and those that concluded that masks were associated with a reduction in transmission and cases were conducted out of season. [...] Analysis was undertaken to verify if masking correlated with COVID-19 morbidity and mortality.  The data looked at were between October 2020 and March 2021, in the 35 European countries listed above, during which all the countries went through a peak COVID-19 infection wave.  The average proportion of masking was 60.9% with Eastern Europe being slightly higher than Western Europe.  However, compliance was much more homogeneous in the East than the West.  Importantly, results showed a weak positive correlation for mask compliance versus morbidity (cases) and mortality (deaths).

The Truth Is Coming Out About COVID Deaths.  Early on in the COVID pandemic, people suspected that the deaths attributed to the infection were exaggerated.  There was plenty of evidence for this.  For starters, hospitals were instructed and incentivized to mark any patient who had a positive COVID test and subsequently died within a certain time period as a COVID death.  At the same time, we knew that the PCR test was unreliable, producing inordinate amounts of false positives.  Now, the truth is finally starting to come out and, as suspected, the actual death toll is vastly lower than we were led to believe.  In the video above, Dr. John Campbell reviews recent data released by the U.K. government in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.  They show that the number of deaths during 2020 in England and Wales, where COVID-19 was the sole cause of death, was 9,400.  Of those, 7,851 were aged 65 and older.  The median age of death was 81.5 years.  [Video clip]

Biden's Ministry of Truth will spy on American citizens.  In a disturbing development for freedom of speech, the Biden administration announced that it will collaborate with social media to crack down on any information that is critical of Biden's vaccination policy.  Disinformation, said Tucker Carlson, "seems to be anything the Biden administration does not want the people to know including, for example, how effective the COVID vaccines actually are and what the potential side effects might be from taking them."  You would no longer be allowed to text such information to other people.  Your private conversations would be controlled by Joe Biden and the Democrats.  "The Biden administration considers censorship applicable to private speech," said Carlson.  To add insult to injury, we have a new development that frankly is beyond my comprehension.  The president has created an information czar to spy on American citizens.  Biden is establishing what he calls the Disinformation Governance Board as part of the Department of Homeland Security.

'Deep State' Was Working Against Trump on COVID-19 Response:  Paul Alexander.  According to Paul Alexander, when former President Donald Trump was trying to tackle COVID-19 in 2020, the "swamp" or the "deep state" was working against him, using flawed data to tarnish him, locking down society, and keeping schools closed.  "Can you imagine the president of the United States fighting against the [teachers'] union, fighting against the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)], fighting against his own task force?" Alexander told EpochTV's "Facts Matter" program in an interview that will air on May 3.  "They're working against him.  So you need to be there to understand when he said 'the swamp' — and he talked about deep state — it is real.  I dealt with them.  It is the bureaucracy.  The entrenched bureaucracy is real."  From late March till early September 2020, Alexander served as scientific adviser to Michael Caputo, then-assistant secretary for public affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Deborah Birx makes astonishing admission of anti-Trump pact.  Deborah Birx, in an interview with ABC News about her new book, "Silent Invasion:  The Untold Story of the Trump Administration, COVID-19, and Preventing the Next Pandemic Before It's Too Late,' said she had a pact with medical bureaucrats — Anthony Fauci, Robert Redfield, Stephen Hahn and perhaps others — that all would resign if even one were removed by then-President Donald Trump.  This is an astonishing admission.  It's essentially an acknowledgement that medical bureaucrats, unelected and unaccountable to the people as they were and are, serving at the pleasure of the White House executive as they did, tried to strong-arm the president of the United States into obeying and abiding their dictates to the point of secretly arranging to walk if they didn't get their way — if Trump decided to send one packing.

That sounds like an opportunity to clean house quickly:  Let them all quit!

Fauci Went Maskless at Correspondents' Dinner Pre-Party and That's Only the Third-Worst Part of It.  After keeping as many Americans as possible cowering behind slave masks throughout the Plandemic, Anthony Fauci attended yesterday's White House Correspondents' Dinner pre-party without a mask.  The crowded room would have been called a super-spreader event if there were Republicans there, but since it was mostly leftist politicians and corporate media folks, they didn't even pretend to social distance.  Today, Pandemic Panic Theater has diminished so it's reasonable to expect such displays.  In fact, we would be lambasting them if the progressive glamour crowd had been wearing slave masks at all now that they've been essentially debunked as a means of stopping anything other than freedom.  That's why this is only the third-worst example of hypocrisy on display surrounding Fauci.  The two biggest despicable actions are tossups as to which is worse.

Pfizer Says Its COVID-19 Pill Paxlovid Fails to Prevent Symptomatic Infection of Household Members.  Pfizer announced Friday that a recent large, late-stage trial found that its COVID-19 antiviral pill, Paxlovid, failed at preventing symptomatic infection of people living with a person who has the disease.  The trial enrolled 2,957 participants aged 18 and older who live in the same household as another person who has COVID-19 with symptoms.  They were given either Paxlovid or a placebo twice daily for five or 10 days.  Researchers reported that those who took Paxlovid for 5 days were 32 percent less likely to become infected compared to the placebo group.  People who took Paxlovid for 10 days were 37 percent less likely to get infected.  The results were not statistically significant, however, which means it could possibly be due to chance.  "These results ... were not statistically significant and, as such, the primary endpoint of reducing the risk of confirmed and symptomatic COVID-19 infection in adults who had been exposed to the virus through a household contact was not met," the company said in a release.

'It was all set up ahead of time': COVID-positive nursing home residents were given deadly euthanasia cocktails.  A shocking number of elderly citizens died in the first wave of COVID, and not always from the virus but from severe malnutrition and dehydration, and by protocols that used euthanasia drugs and "end-of -life pathways" as a first-line of treatment for any symptoms, according to a recent analysis published in the C2C Journal.  Of all countries in the west, Canada was the deadliest place to be an at-risk long-term care home resident.  "At the end of May 2020, Canada was reporting that 81 percent of the country's Covid-19 deaths took place in LTCFs [long-term care facilities]," writes Anna Farrow, executive director of the English-Speaking Catholic Council in the province of Quebec.  "This compared to an average of 38 percent in the other 37 OECD countries.  That proportion has fallen, but a December 2021 report by the Canadian Institute for Health Information noted that LTCFs still accounted for 43 percent of Covid-19 deaths."

Studies prove that most politicians and experts handled COVID terribly.  During the 2020 election, multiple public health "experts" claimed President Trump had "blood on his hands" and was responsible for "preventable" loss of life.  They expressed confidence that things would improve with a Biden administration, "which is likely to bring a science-based approach to containing the virus."  An editorial in the highly regarded and allegedly apolitical New England Journal of Medicine, wrote that "inappropriate government policies" were responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands, labeled the Trump administration as "dangerously incompetent" and directed its readers (without mentioning his name) to vote for Biden who would set things right.  Things didn't work out that way.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has just released data showing that 60,000 more Americans died in 2021 from COVID-19 than in 2020.  The rate of COVID-19 associated deaths in 2021 rose 20% from 2020, despite the benefit of vaccines that only became widely available in 2021, multiple new therapies, more clinical experience resulting in improved treatment protocols, and a nationwide travel mask mandate imposed immediately after Biden's inauguration at the beginning of 2021.

Hepatitis Outbreak in Children May Be Consequence of Covid Lockdowns Weakening Immunity.  Last week, I reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Alabama Public Health officials were investigating a mysterious outbreak of hepatitis among young children in Alabama.  Outbreaks had also been reported in Europe and Israel.  The investigators were concerned that the pathogen was an adenovirus known to cause gastrointestinal problems in kids but usually without such severity.  Now one official indicates that the cause may be tied to covid.  Not the pathogens, but the lockdowns.

This Scary Experiment Explains Two Years of COVID Hell.  In case you were wondering why all views contrary to the Official Narrative have been canceled, it's because of the Asch Conformity Experiment.  We have just gone through a nationwide, and actually a worldwide, Asch Conformity Experiment.  As implied, the goal of the experiment was not to get to the truth.  It was to get conformity.  Only conformity is allowed.  Asch showed that people will actually believe things that they know to be false if they think everybody else believes those things.  That is the point of the COVID nightmare experiment we just lived though.  You must believe:
  •   COVID is hugely riskier than it actually was, so any actions are justified.
  •   Vaccines are your only hope, even though the technology has never worked.
  •   Vaccines are safe and effective, although they were tested for only a few months.
  •   The unvaxxed are subhuman murderers, to be shunned and even left to die.
  •   Not wearing a known-to-be-useless mask is a sign of relentless selfishness.
  •   Children, who are at almost no risk, must be vaxxed, or they will kill Granny.
None of these makes sense.  However, no dissentm can be allowed because the Asch Conformity Experiment showed that if one person stands up to the narrative, it is easier for the second one to dissent.  Then another and another stand up, and then control is lost.

Now Biden's vaccinated and boosted Communications Director tests positive for COVID.  White House communications director Kate Bedingfield tested positive for covid on Friday [4/29/2022], she announced, adding that she was not considered a close contact to President Joe Biden.  Bedingfield, who is vaccinated and boosted, said she last saw the president on Wednesday but wore a mask when meeting with him.  'This morning, I tested positive for COVID-19.  I last saw the President Wednesday in a socially-distanced meeting while wearing an N-95 mask, and he is not considered a close contact as defined by the CDC,' she wrote on Twitter.

Awful Details Emerge In Lawsuit Claiming Vax-Status Bullies Led To Suicide Of Chicago Teen.  Coming out of the New York Post is the horrible story of a fifteen-year-old who eventually killed himself after relentless bullying from pro-vax classmates who alleged the deceased was not vaccinated against Covid.  Nate Bronstein, a teenager who attended the $40,000 per year Latin School of Chicago, was found dead this past January.  A lawsuit was filed shortly after his death, and goes into remarkable detail about how often both the parents and now-deceased child attempted to reconcile the bullying over the false rumors of him not being vaccinated against Covid.  Defendants in the suit include the school, some employees of the school, and even a few parents of the alleged bullies.

Young Chicago Student Commited Suicide After Being Bullied About His Vaccination Status.  A 15-year-old boy who was initially targeted by a false rumor that he was unvaccinated was bullied relentlessly until he took his own life in January, a lawsuit claims.  The suit filed Monday [4/25/2022] against the Latin School of Chicago alleges administrators at the private college prep school — which charges more than $40,000 annually in tuition — committed "willful failure" to stop the incessant bullying, the Chicago Tribune reported.  The Cook County filing named the school, several employees and parents of the alleged bullies as defendants.  [Video clip]

The next wave of mask mandates.  To be generous, the use of masks during what was billed as a viral based respiratory pandemic is pseudoscience at best, given what was worn, how it was worn, where it was worn, the duration it was worn, and so on and so on. [...] To rational people, it should be clear that there was never a scientific rationale to justify masking's use and obvious child abuse to continue.  But if I were an evil genius, how could I keep my pet project of subjugation — I mean protecting the public's safety — going?  Well, this is a medical issue, after all, so I'd look for the obvious: the medical environment.  Though I am not an evil genius, there is a guy who plays one on TV.  He goes by the name of Dr. Fauci, though sometimes my fingers type too fast and it appears as Fraudci.  According to Dr. Fraudci, I mean Fauci, the pandemic is over, but that is no reason for the mask not to keep on giving.

Politico asks why did Kamala take the Pfizer wonder drug if she's asymptomatic?  It's a good question.  I had the same one when I heard someone on television mention she was taking it.  We were told she tested positive for COVID-19 but she is asymptomatic.  If she has no symptoms, why is she taking Pfizer's wonder drug?  The simple answer is because she's the vice-president.  If she was Kamala Harris, the office assistant from down the street, she very likely wouldn't have access to the drug, Paxlovid.  The Covid-19 antiviral pill, according to the Politico piece, is reserved for patients "at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19," according to the Food and Drug Administration's emergency use authorization standards."  Is Kamala a high risk patient?

There's something funny about Kamala's case of COVID.  Kamala has COVID, and it is, allegedly, a light, asymptomatic case.  However, she's being treated with heavy-duty medicine.  The disconnect between these two facts makes it easy to come up with some cool conspiracy theories that will last as long as it takes Kamala to return to her office.  On Tuesday [4/26/2022], Kamala Harris put out a tweet announcing that she was COVID positive, along with the ritual thanks for the vaccine and booster, neither of which protected her from getting COVID.

What I've Seen in the Last Two Years Is Unprecedented': Physician on COVID Vaccine Side Effects on Pregnant Women.  Dr. James Thorp is an extensively published 68-year-old physician MD board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology, as well as maternal-fetal medicine, who has practiced obstetrics for over 42 years.  Thorp told The Epoch Times that he sees 6,000 [to] 7,000 high-risk pregnant patients a year and has seen many complications among them due to the COVID vaccines.  "I've seen many, many, many complications in pregnant women, in moms and in fetuses, in children, offspring," Thorp said, "fetal death, miscarriage, death of the fetus inside the mom.  "What I've seen in the last two years is unprecedented," Thorp asserted.

Hundreds of CDC Employees Haven't Received a COVID-19 Vaccine.  Nearly 400 employees at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) haven't received a COVID-19 vaccine, according to data obtained exclusively by The Epoch Times.  A total of 382 workers at the CDC are unvaccinated, Roger Andoh, a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) officer at the agency, told The Epoch Times.  Another nine employees have just had one dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, meaning they also don't qualify as fully vaccinated per the CDC's guidelines.  Collectively, the number is 3.2 percent of the CDC's workforce.

Moderna officially asks FDA to authorize Covid vaccine for children as young as six months old.  Moderna has applied for authorization from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to use its COVID-19 vaccines in children as young as six months old, the company announced Thursday [4/28/2022].  It comes as part of a larger move by the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based company to finally get its shots authorized for people under 18 in America[,] putting it on par with its main competition in the rollout of the shots, Pfizer.  Some experts doubt that the shots are needed at all in children, though, especially for those as young as six months old who face little individual risk from the virus.

Michigan Investigated Hundreds of Doctors [and] Nurses Over COVID-related Complaints.  Hundreds of nurses and doctors, including a chief medical examiner, have been investigated by the state of Michigan on COVID-related allegations ranging from videotaping a wedding where some guests weren't wearing masks to telling trick-or-treaters not to get the vaccine.  Authorities dismissed many of the complaints.  Dozens are still pending, with a number referred for disciplinary action.  Some have been referred to the Michigan Attorney General's office for criminal prosecution.  An allergy and asthma specialist is the subject of one of the referrals sent to the attorney general.  The complaint accuses the doctor of prescribing "a lethal dosage" of ivermectin.  Copies of the complaints, which total more than 500, were provided exclusively to the Epoch Times.  The Pacific Justice Institute obtained the records through a FOIA request.  The institute represents some of the accused nurses and doctors.

Wait — the election isn't until November!
'Perfect storm' for measles outbreaks forecast as cases spike 79%.  While praying the worst days of the COVID-19 pandemic are behind us, global health officials warn to be vigilant about other potential outbreaks — this time, measles.  Cases of the disease spiked 79% during the first two months of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, according to a joint statement issued by the World Health Organization and UNICEF.  Experts fear that all the time spent indoors during the pandemic — and people who aren't vaccinated against measles — poses risks for the youngest among us, creating a "perfect storm" for outbreaks.  "Measles is more than a dangerous and potentially deadly disease.  It is also an early indication that there are gaps in our global immunization coverage, gaps vulnerable children cannot afford," said Catherine Russell, UNICEF executive director.

The Editor says...
I'm no doctor, but I had the measles when I was a little kid.  So did everybody else in town, at one time or another, and I never heard of anybody dying from it.  On the other hand, you should carefully consider whatever your doctor recommends.  Given our experience with the benevolent government watching out for our health, whether we wanted their help or not, over the last two years, I'm very skeptical (even more than usual) about government warnings about widespread diseases.  Also beware of meaningless percentages in news reports:  Cases spiked 79 percent, they say.  How many cases?  A hundred?  A thousand?  What defines a "case?"

Fauci thinks arrogant technocrats should trump the rule of law.  Anthony Fauci was "surprised and disappointed" by last week's ruling against the mask mandate for travelers issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  "This is a CDC issue," President Joe Biden's top medical adviser told CNN.  "It should not have been a court issue."  Fauci, who objects to federalism as well as judicial review, embodies the mild-mannered arrogance of technocrats who assume their scientific expertise trumps the rule of law.  Because they believe they know what is best for us, they are dismayed by any attempt to limit their influence or restrain their power.  Fauci did vaguely criticize the substance of US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle's decision, calling her reasoning "not sound" and "not particularly firm."  But his main point was that she had no business determining whether the CDC had complied with the law because courts should not be "getting involved in things that are unequivocally public-health decisions."

At least 58% of U.S. population has natural antibodies from previous Covid infection, CDC says.  Three out of every 5 people in the U.S. now have antibodies from a previous Covid-19 infection with the proportion even higher among children, demonstrating how widespread the virus was during the winter omicron surge, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  The proportion of people with natural Covid antibodies increased substantially from about 34% of the population in December to about 58% in February during the unprecedent wave of infection driven by the highly contagious omicron variant.  The CDC's analysis didn't factor in people who had antibodies from vaccination.

COVID vaccine victim?  Meet Dr. Avindra Nath of the NIH.  Dr. Nath has basically thrown hundreds of thousands (and more likely millions) of vaccine-injured people under the bus by denying a link between the COVID vaccines and injury.  From this Jan 20, 2022 article, In rare cases, coronavirus vaccines may cause Long Covid — like symptoms, we learn that  ["]The research was small in scale and drew no conclusions about whether or how vaccines may have caused rare, lasting health problems.  The patients had 'temporal associations' between vaccination and their faltering health, says Avindra Nath, clinical director at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), who has been leading the NIH efforts.  But 'an etiological association?  I don't know.'  In other words, he does not know whether vaccination directly caused the subsequent health problems.["]  Furthermore, this article makes it crystal clear that Nath has known about the vaccine injured since January 2021[.]

Fauci Lets His Megalomania Show.  The Biden administration's chief medical adviser made last year what C.S. Lewis might have called a "lunatic, liar, or lord" statement when he essentially claimed to be the embodiment of science.  Five days ago, this man went even further, declaring that the executive branch should be free to act outside of boundaries put in place to prevent an all-powerful presidency.  He's a menace.  We'd all be better off if he were a Washington Nationals batboy rather than a powerful government functionary and influential media darling.  Anthony Fauci — we won't grant him the honor of the title of "Dr." because he's far more bureaucrat than healer — who heads the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases is not science, even though in June 2021 he said his critics, of whom there are many but not enough, are "really criticizing science because I represent science."

Fact-Checkers Don't Always Check Facts.  "Fact-Checkers" are often just propagandists with a cute title.  In a perfect world, fact-checkers would check just facts.  However, all too often, the anointed arbiters of truth equate opinion as fact and label rhetoric or even parody as "false." Donald Trump was "fact-checked" by the Washington Post 30,573 times. [...] Politifact fact-checked Ron DeSantis when he told high school students that they could take their masks off and offered "They don't do anything."  Politifact labeled that statement false.  Yes, masks "do something," like a screendoor on a submarine will, technically "stop" some water, but from a practical standpoint, cloth masks are near to useless.

Coming to America:  Food Insecurity Is Inevitable.  After one-third of the horrific term of President Joe Biden is almost complete, the United States of America is facing a series of mind-boggling crises.  The Biden administration's COVID-19 response focused on forcing Americans to wear masks and take vaccines.  The President pushed mandates and lockdowns, instead of freedom.  The toll on our economy, overall health and psychological well-being has been staggering.  This week, in their commitment to continue these policies, the administration refused to abandon the unnecessary and ridiculous mask mandate for public transportation and will appeal a federal judge's sensible ruling striking down this unpopular mandate.

Prepping the Mind.  Many see the troubles coming.  The economics are unsustainable, the energy (with their successful plan) is unsustainable, the culture that made America great is being eaten alive by massive waves of illegal immigration from the southern border; a farming capacity that's been systematically dismantled, an oil industry that's under constant assault to either production or distribution and you have a world where one must prepare for the worst, part of that is prepping the mind.  Discussions on this blog of the communist infiltration into all sectors of government is meant to do just that.  These people are not the county clerks and state employees of the 1950s television shows and movies.  They aren't just petty little tyrants with the power to make one knuckle under, they're enemy combatants inside the lines.  Nothing should have made that more apparent than the past year of lockdowns where some unelected "health official" systematically destroyed capitalism and small business in America with the stroke of a pen or the breath of a command.

What Are Your Memories From Two Years of the COVID Cult?  After a Federal Judge found that the CDC overstepped its authority by mandating masks, the left stepped in to declare, among other things, that the judge was too young. [...] The most absurd impact, for me, was golf.  Courses were shut down.  When they eventually reopened, the flagpoles had an attachment so the holes were covered; the ball wouldn't drop in the hole.  Apparently COVID was lurking down there, like a scary clown, ready to grab fingers and infect golfers.  Sand rakes were removed.  You could drive to a course with another person, but you couldn't ride in a shared cart.  And masks were required on courses.

The Arc of a Fraud.  Dr. Naomi Wolf of the Daily Clout hosted Mr. Edward Dowd, former Blackrock portfolio manager for a 2nd conversation yesterday.  Watching the two of them piece together this insane vaccination puzzle is an amazing thing to observe.  We must appreciate that while big players on the Internet have forced people like them mostly underground, the Internet itself is still a miraculous tool without which the public would have no chance of pulling back the curtain of propaganda and figuring things out for ourselves.  Mr. Dowd presented his theory regarding the mass vaccination program that he arrived at using a combination of factors and sources.  Dr. Wolf and her team have been able to back Mr. Dowd's theories with evidence of fraud and coverups that they've begun to uncover in the trove of FDA documents that have been released so far.  The two of them together are a powerhouse that is shifting the Overton Window with herculean efforts.  [Video clip]

769 Athletes have Collapsed While Competing Over The Past Year.  Over the past year-plus, athletes across the world have been dropping like flies as they compete in games.  If they aren't passed out cold, they are seen gripping their chests in agony, unable to breathe due to sudden cardiac events that hit in the heat of the competition.  This wave of heart issues is unprecedented, to say the least.  Never before have we seen young, healthy, world-class athletes experiencing heart issues en masse like this.  It has never happened, ever.  Furthermore, the timing of this sweeping phenomenon could not be more relevant, coinciding perfectly with the rollout of the experimental Covid-19 vaccines.

6 Double Standards Public Health Officials Used to Justify COVID Vaccines.  [#1]  COVID deaths are 'presumed,' but vaccine deaths must be 'proven'.  As of April 8, VAERS included 26,699 reports of deaths following COVID vaccines.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officially acknowledges only nine of these.  In order to establish causality, the CDC requires autopsies to rule out any possible etiology of death before the agency will place culpability on the vaccine.  But the CDC uses a very different standard when it comes to identifying people who died from COVID. [...] If a person dies with a positive PCR test or is presumed to have COVID, the CDC will count that as COVID-19 death.  Note that in the CDC's definition, a COVID fatality does not mean the person died from the disease, only with the disease.  Why is an autopsy required to establish a COVID vaccine death but not to establish a COVID death?

US Army doctor reveals medics were told not to report adverse COVID jab reactions.  A U.S. Army lieutenant colonel and combat physician has described how fellow medics in the Army were told not to enter records of COVID jab adverse reactions into official databases.  "They either look the other way or they just say, 'Well, I can't do that.  It doesn't exist'," said Dr. Peter Chambers, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army, Special Forces Green Beret, and combat physician.

Washington Post:  A Chinese lab identified COVID in December 2019 but the government kept it quiet.  The Washington Post editorial board has a detailed story about a laboratory in Guangzhou, China which was one of the first in the country to genetically sequence COVID-19.  The lab had been sent a sample from a hospitalized patient in Wuhan who had some kind of lung infection.  A researcher at the lab saw the sequencing results and recognized it as a variant of SARS on December 26, 2019.

A Medical Dictator.  I believe that Dr. Anthony Fauci is a medical dictator, and I have reached this conclusion through personal experience.  Under his 'guidance' at the NIH, every level of government as well as the private sector have been affected by his medical advice.  Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle ruled that requiring masks on airplanes is unconstitutional as the CDC had overstepped its authority when demanding the practice.  It was a great decision and many airline companies immediately removed their mask requirements.  Both airline passengers and employees noted what a relief this was.  Some airline officials commented that many of the passenger conflicts reported over the past couple of years were related to the requirement to wear masks.  After my last visit to see my doctor, it was clear that Dr. Fauci was guilty of medical tyranny.  I was required to wear a mask.  All the staff were required to wear masks, though many wore the mask below the nose — one wonders if that does any good at all.

Masking the Mask Mandate Morass.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is a federal agency within the Department of Health and Human Services.  Over the years, and especially in the COVID era, HHS has come to stand for Health through Human Servitude.  But on Monday, a federal judge struck down the slavish federal mask mandate, the nagging reminder of the coerced intimacy (viz. rape) of bureaucratic rule.  Alerted of the change midair, passengers and crew cheered their liberation.  Horrified by the loss of their sham authority, the master class counterattacked by assailing the opinion and particularly the Florida federal judge who wrote it.  It turns out that Kathryn Kimball Mizelle became a federal judge at the young age of 33 and moreover was nominated in September 2020 by President Trump and confirmed in post-election December by the old Republican Senate.  Even worse, she had clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas, among other judges disagreeable to the cognoscenti, including Judge William Pryor of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.

What a Week This Has Been.  Florida U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle issued a ruling ending mask mandates on public transportation, indicating they infringed on Americans' rights and were imposed without adhering to the laws governing administrative rule-making.  Regardless of the attacks on her as out of line, her decision was in perfect accord with a recent Supreme Court decision that also said the CDC had overreached its authority when it limited evictions. [...] Most travelers and airline personnel were elated to be able to breathe freely again, and those who don't are free to continue masking up, but Dr. Fauci seemed disconsolate that his dictatorship over the country was over.

The Maniacal Mask Crisis Tyrants.  Chances are if you say the word "Florida" to a progressive socialist leftist they will go into a frothing apoplectic rage.  Now, I live in Texas and I wish that saying "Texas" would do the same, but perhaps that is the topic of another missive.  Under the leadership of Governor Ron DeSantis, the State of Florida has truly become a thorn in the side of leftists.  How dare anyone stand up to the left's agenda, and not capitulate to some doggone woke corporate fascist oligarch, like a Disney.  But it is not just Gov. DeSantis.  There is a new face of pain and anguish for the left in America, and that face is also out of Florida.  That face, and judicial prowess, belongs to one US District Court Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle.  Something tells me that Judge Mizelle has no issue defining what a woman is.  Last week it was Judge Mizelle's ruling against mask mandates that have thrown the left into a fit.  Thankfully, we still have some judges who understand that their job is to interpret the law and not make laws.

COVID testing company in California fined $22M after falsifying test results.  A California company agreed to pay $22 million in fines after claiming to provide COVID test results within 24 hours and then allegedly falsifying results to meet demand according to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday.  Sameday Health, operated by Sameday Technologies, boasts 55 testing centers across the country after setting up shop in September 2020.  For $195 they promised consumers that they would provide test results within 24 hours, a claim Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer and Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón argued was entirely impossible.  According to the complaint filed by Feuer and Gascón, Sameday's "promise was false — Sameday could not guarantee a 24-hour turnaround time" as lab contracts "expressly stated that they could not deliver results that quickly.  In fact, out of more than 500 test results "confirmed or suspected to be faked, falsified, or forged," many results were provided before the outside labs had even received the test to analyze.

Mass Testing:  The Fatal Conceit.  Afew decades ago, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) robots, DNA sequencers, and high-speed computers fostered and accompanied quite a scientific revolution in virology.  Acknowledging this radical change, some illustrious scholars alerted their scientific community on a hazardous drift away from investigating the viral ecology, pathogenesis, and disease potential, along with viral identification by testing.  "In summary", wrote Calisher and al. (2001),  ["]remarkable advances in molecular genetics have allowed rapid and precise identifications of viruses and of their genomes; however, such characterizations thus far can provide only limited information about the phenotype and disease potential of a virus.["]

How opportunists got rich off COVID-19 pandemic by stealing our money.  On Saturday, April 26, 2020, Robert Stewart Jr., a 33-year-old contractor from Virginia, invited an investigative reporter to take a trip on his private jet.  "I'm talking with you against the advice of my attorney," Stewart laughed, before bringing J. David McSwane aboard a luxury Legacy 450 Flexjet, which he'd rented to deliver six million N95 masks during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Stewart had recently landed a $34.5 million contract with the US Department of Veterans Affairs, which operates the nation's largest network of hospitals, promising to provide them with enough of the medical-grade (and at the time, scarce) masks to meet the overwhelming demand.  Problem was, there were no masks aboard the plane.

The Government's Mask Confusion.  You can't blame the president for being confused.  His public health advisers seem pretty confused themselves.  They've convinced him that migrants pose no public health threat but that Americans who travel in anything from Ubers to commercial jetliners do.  He will end swift deportations for those who enter the country unlawfully but impose civil and criminal penalties on airline passengers who don't wear masks.  The administration also is sending confusing signals on vaccines.  The Food and Drug Administration has authorized a fourth COVID-19 vaccine dose for people over 50, but the CDC's vaccine advisory committee didn't endorse four shots.  And the confusion isn't confined to Washington.  The city of Philadelphia revived its indoor mask mandate on April 18 and rescinded it three days later.  On April 22, the Board of Health "retired the system of COVID-19 response levels" — the methodology that had prompted the mandate's revival.  The CDC, however, isn't giving up on mask mandates, despite their questionable value.

Fauci's worst soundbite of the pandemic.  Ed flagged this earlier but I want to give it more exposure.  It's an amazing insight into how authoritarian the public health bureaucracy has become during the pandemic.  One could dismiss Fauci's reasoning here by saying, "Look, he's a doctor, not a lawyer.  He's not supposed to know the ins-and-outs of how policy is made."  Okay, well, he's been the head of a federal agency for nearly 40 years.  One would hope that he's picked up a passing acquaintance with the niceties of the process during that time.  Besides, you don't need legal training to grasp the problem with the idea that courts shouldn't have power to review the lawfulness of federal policy provided that it's endorsed by scientists.  All you need is a third-grade-level civics education.  If you made it to the day in class where the teacher explained the three branches of government, congratulations, you're equipped to spot the problem here.  [Tweet]

GOP lawmaker slams 'Lord Fauci' for insinuating he has higher power than the legal system.  [Quoting Rep.] Lee Zeldin:  ["]Lord Fauci thinking that he has higher power than the legal system, our constitution, our laws.  Very slippery slope — where in the name of a public health emergency, this type of an awesome power that he wants to claim going forward can end up going even further than what we witnessed for the last two years during this pandemic.  You know, what we're seeing right now in the state of New York is that the Department of Health is looking to advance a regulation that would expand quarantine and isolation if there is some type of a public health emergency, and you can isolate and quarantine outside of someone's home involuntarily.  We can see ways that CDC, lord Fauci and others might seek to go even further with mandates and restrictions where there isn't a balance, where there isn't a check.  Is he thinking that maybe he can overrule the legislative branch too and the judiciary?["]

The Biological Weapons Convention does not prohibit biological weapons.  Deborah G. Rosenbaum, the US Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological defense programs (ASD(NCB)), testified to the House subcommittee on Intelligence and Special Operations on April 1, 2022, that "I can say to you unequivocally there are no offensive biologic weapons in the Ukraine laboratories that the United States has been involved with."  With this testimony, the US Department of Defense has made a clear statement that there were no OFFENSIVE biological weapons that the US was involved with.  Did you catch that slight-of-hand?  No offensive biological weapons.  Why would the US admit to such a thing?  Wouldn't that set off alarm bells in the international community?  The answer is that developing and even stockpiling biological weapons is allowed under Article I of the convention on the prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on their Destruction (BWC).  This international convention (treaty) allows that the development, production and stockpiling of "defensive" biological weapons are perfectly legal.

Dr. Peter McCullough:  Pilot's heart attack after COVID shot fits 'pattern'.  An American Airlines pilot who suffered cardiac arrest six minutes after landing an Airbus A321 jetliner with 200 people aboard at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport blames the COVID-19 shot his company required employees to get.  Proving the cause is difficult, but Captain Robert Snow's case does fit a pattern, said Dr. Peter McCullough, a world-renowned cardiologist and critic of the COVID vaccines who practices in Dallas.  McCullough was one of the physicians who attended the pilot at the Baylor Scott and White Health Center in Dallas after the April 9 incident.  After Snow's heart stopped and he became unconscious while parked at a gate, the pilot was removed from the plane and woke up in the ICU. Later, from his hospital room, he recorded a video (embedded at the end of the article) in which he described being forced to take the vaccine, which he fears has ended his flying career.

Study: California [is] Among [the] Worst States Dealing With COVID-19.  When COVID-19 hit two years ago, how many times did we hear California politicians say we must "follow the science"? Instead, they followed the politics.  That's what's indicated in a study by the National Bureau of Economic Research:  "A Final Report Card on the States' Response to COVID-19."  The study was reviewed by noted Stanford professor of medicine Jay Bhattacharya.  It comes as America finally is moving beyond the pandemic and returning to normalcy, or at least trying to.  Reported The Epoch Times this week, "Federal Judge Strikes Down CDC Mask Mandate for Planes, Travel."  The study, by economists Phil Kerpen, et al., noted America's federalist model allowed the states to adopt different responses:  "States learned from one another over time about what policies worked most and least effectively in terms of containing the virus while minimizing the negative effects of lockdown strategies on businesses and children."

Biden's selective COVID emergency.  Is the pandemic over now, or will it end in May, or August, or after Election Day?  Depending on the issue, the Biden administration's answer is "all of the above."  The pandemic is over now when it comes to masking at the White House and the impressively low unemployment rate.  When it comes to masks on transit and Title 42, the Trump-era policy of turning away migrants at the border, the pandemic will end in May.  When it comes to ending the student loan repayment pause, the pandemic will end on Aug. 31, or maybe after Election Day.

Mathematician: Governments Manipulated COVID Data To Panic The Masses & Create "Crisis".  A mathematician and professor of risk information management at Queen Mary University of London has started warning the public about how government officials manipulated the COVID-19 data and lied to the public when implementing testing, lockdown, mask, and vaccine protocols throughout the plandemic.  Dr. Norman Fenton, Ph.D., says that almost from the very start of the scamdemic, he could see that health officials were manufacturing "proof" of a crisis in order to mislead the public into accepting wide-scale tyranny and medical abuse under the guise of getting "vaccinated".  Fenton spoke with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., on his "RFK Jr.  The Defender Podcast" about this subject, revealing that most governments were willing to not "let a crisis go to waste," so they created nonsensical propaganda and peddled it to their people.  "It was clear I think from the start that most of the data that governments put out — not just the UK government, but most governments around the world ... were kind of misleading because it was based on very easily manipulated statistics," Fenton told Kennedy when asked about the challenges he saw when the plandemic first emerged.

L.A. Leftists Embrace Permanent Pandemic With New Mask Mandate.  While the masks come off on nationwide public transit, Los Angeles leftists rejected the pandemic-restriction era's end with their own mask requirement for buses, trains, and ride-share starting on Friday [4/22/2022].  Residents in L.A. County, who saw the first reintroduction of mask mandates after those restrictions were lifted when therapeutics became more widely available, will still be required to wear facial coverings in line with guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  "They are experts," Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said of the CDC during an online briefing with reporters, according to a local ABC affiliate.  "They made a determination that at this point having that requirement in place is necessary for the public's health, and that resonates with us."

Connecting the Dots on Early COVID Treatments.  As you may well know, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and ivermectin are among the most frequently mentioned drugs for early treatment of COVID-19.  Both drugs were originally used to combat tropical diseases like malaria (HCQ) and river blindness (ivermectin).  What follows is a very brief history of how they were repurposed for treating COVID-19.   In 2010, zinc ionophores were shown to inhibit replication of coronaviruses.  This research was done at Dr. Ralph Baric's Lab at UNC at Chapel Hill.  Four years later, a dose-response experiment demonstrated the ability of chloroquine to serve as a zinc ionophore for cells cultured in vitro.  In early 2020 this information was used to treat COVID-19 in China, France, and the U.S.  Unfortunately, following publication of a fraudulent study in the Lancet in May 2020, governments and medical institutions all over the Western world limited access to HCQ for treatment of COVID-19.  Many states in the US followed suit by imposing their own restrictions on HCQ.

In sudden reversal, Philly nixes mandated masking and the COVID warning system that triggered it.  Philadelphia reversed its decision to bring back indoor masking on Friday after just three days, and at the same time scrapped a new public health department COVID-19 response system that made it the only large U.S. city to bring back a mask mandate this spring.  Health officials and Mayor Jim Kenney offered differing reasons.  While the health commissioner framed the decision as one driven by data and science, Kenney cited politics and logistics.  The day the mandate went into effect, a Florida judge struck down a federal rule requiring masking on public transit.  Regional transit agency SEPTA lifted its requirement that people wear masks on its vehicles later that day.

Flip-flopping.  Because the science is settled!
Philadelphia Drops Indoor Mask Mandate Five Days After Reinstating It.  Five days after reinstating a city-wide indoor mask mandate, Philadelphia abruptly decided to drop it again.  This past Saturday, a group of businesses filed a lawsuit challenging the city's renewed order.  According to the update posted on the city's official website today,  ["]The City of Philadelphia announced today that residents and visitors are strongly encouraged, but not required, to wear a mask in indoor public spaces.  This change follows a recent leveling-off of case counts and a decrease in COVID-19 hospitalizations in the city.["]  The city further explained that residents and visitors "are permitted and encouraged" to wear masks in any setting.  All private businesses and other institutions "are allowed" to implement Covid policies that are stricter than those ordered by the city, the announcement noted.

COVID is over.  We're not supposed to say "COVID is over," but that's about all there is to say when India's latest breakout has almost nobody getting sick and doctors call it "no cause for concern."  Caseloads in the major city of Mumbai more than quadrupled in recent weeks, from 300 per month to nearly 400 each week.  Despite the increase, "A lone death was reported in Gondhia," according to The Times of India.  Dr Pradeep Awate told the paper, "Data from genome sequencing shows there is no new variant in circulation and only Omicron's sub lineages are present in India."  The city's positive test rate is only 1%, but they aren't enforcing a universal testing regime as China has done.  Between that and 95% of the known positives showing zero symptoms, it's likely that Mumbai's actual infection rate is much higher than just 1%.  It isn't like India has gotten off easy to date.  The world's most populous country has also suffered the third-largest death toll, behind the U.S. and Brazil.

Recipients of Biden-touted Paxlovid report Covid symptoms returning and even testing positive for the virus again.  Paxlovid has been deemed one of the gold standard Covid treatments in the U.S., even being touted by President Joe Biden at his State of the Union address this year.  Some of those who used the drug to treat the virus are reporting an interesting phenomena, though.  The drug, developed by Pfizer, is believed to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization or death in a person that has already been infected with the virus, but some who had their symptoms initially clear up after using the drug are reporting feeling symptoms again later on.

FDA and Pfizer Knew COVID Shot Caused Immunosuppression.  With another batch of 11,000 Pfizer documents, released April 1, 2022, old suspicions have gained fresh support.  As reported by "Rising" cohost Kim Iversen (video above), the first bombshell revelation is that natural immunity works, and Pfizer has known it all along.  The clinical trial data showed there was no difference in outcomes between those with previous COVID infection and those who got the shot.  Neither group experienced severe infection.  Natural immunity was also statistically identical to the shot in terms of the risk of infection.  The second revelation is that side effects from the shots were more severe in younger people, aged 18 to 55, than those aged 55 and older.  (The risk of side effects also increased with additional doses, so the risk was higher after the second dose than the first.)  As many of us have said all along, the risk of severe COVID is dramatically lower in younger people than those over 60, which makes an elevated risk of side effects unacceptable.

Male Pfizer trial participants were required to abstain from sex or use contraception.  Official documents show that Pfizer instructed male COVID vaccine trial participants to abstain from sex or use condoms to protect against potential fertility issues caused by the novel jabs.  "Male participants in the Pfizer clinical trials were required to either abstain from sex or use condoms," posted prominent doctor Aaron Kheriaty on social media yesterday, accompanied with the clinical trial documentation to support his statement.  "[The] Comirnaty [Pfizer COVID vaccine] insert mentions that the product had 'not been evaluated for the potential to cause carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or impairment of male fertility,'" added the doctor, linking to the Food and Drug Administration's official insert.

I'm no doctor, but that doesn't sound all that unusual.  If you're taking an experimental drug for the purpose of discovering its side-effects, of course you'd want to guard against hereditary toxicity.

Super Lawyer Takes on DOD Vax Mandates.  The Biden administration's vaccine mandates purporting to force U.S. military members to take the experimental Covid injections are unconstitutional and, because of the potential for genetic changes, may have implications involving patents and intellectual property, super lawyer Todd Callender tells The New American magazine's Alex Newman in this episode of Conversations That Matter.  To protect the U.S. military, the rights of troops, and the U.S. Constitution, Callender has joined forces with other attorneys such as Tom Renz to sue the Department of Defense.  [Video clip]

If Masks Work, Wear One — and If They Don't, Why Mandate Them?  This week, U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle struck down the Biden administration's mask mandate for airplanes and other public transportation methods.  Videos posted on social media showed airplane passengers cheering when told that the now tiresome face mask was no longer needed in the airport or on the plane.  We have been masked up on public transportation for more than two years, with little scientific rationale for this new practice.  It's the first time public health officials have recommended, then required, masking to prevent transmission of a respiratory virus.  In fact, the CDC and WHO, early in the pandemic, did not recommend facial coverings, except for those who are immunocompromised or otherwise at higher risk.

Americans Don't Like Being Told What to Do.  When we say emphatically, "All men are created equal," there is no boilerplate fine print for us down below qualifying, "Except for corrupt politicians, noble leftovers from the days of medieval feudalism, corporate oligarchs, or communist dictators, all of whom are obviously superior to and entitled to rule over the rest of us in perpetuity."  No siree!  We have about as much use for a permanent ruling class as Dr. Fauci has for an introductory ethics textbook — that is to say, none at all!  Ever since COVID-1984 mania was unleashed (intentionally or unintentionally — maybe time will tell) upon the world, the hypnotic drumbeat emanating from the Davos Druids has been steady:  trust the experts.  Obey.  Mandates will set you free.  None in the media dare call it "reprogramming," but that's clearly what it has been.

Medicine as a Subjective Good.  No philosophical argument for freedom depends on the absence of shortage in any market.  America's public health establishment espoused a preposterous political philosophy.  Shortages of other goods — like toilet paper or hand sanitizer in 2020 or gasoline in the 1970s — were never claimed to justify the suspension of freedom.  Since economic freedom improves the performance of markets, shortages should call for more freedom, not less.  What lies behind such bizarre political philosophy?  I suggest an economic fallacy, the objective good (or cost) fallacy.  The health care establishment views medical care as an objective good.  The objective good fallacy sustains the myth of efficient expert management and the desperate suspension of freedom in the face of a shortage.

Fauci's Complaints on 'Dangerous Precedent' of Mask Mandate Ruling Exposes a Disturbing Sense of Entitlement.  In multiple interviews, Dr. Anthony Fauci has weighed in on the Monday ruling from United States District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, which struck down the travel mask mandate.  President Joe Biden's Department of Justice (DOJ) has decided to appeal Judge Mizelle's ruling.  The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has also told the DOJ to reinstate the mandate.  Speaking with CBS News' Robert Costa, Dr. Fauci lamented that a judge would dare to rule on the mask mandate as it applied to the CDC overstepping its authority, including when it comes to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).  Costa had asked Fauci "does the CDC, with all respect, have any power anymore if one judge can say 'no thanks' to its mandates," expressing a rather narrow-minded oversimplification of the issue.

L.A. County to keep mask mandate at airports, on public transit.  Los Angeles County is issuing a new health officer order that continues to require masks at airports, on all public transit and in other indoor transportation hubs.  The new order comes after a federal judge on Monday overturned a federal mandate that required masks on trains, planes, buses and at travel hubs.  Then on Wednesday, the Department of Justice filed a notice of appeal seeking to reverse the decision at the request of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Also Wednesday, the California Department of Public Health updated its state guidance to recommend — but no longer require — masks on public transit.

How America Became La La Land.  America these last 14 months resembles a dystopia.  It is becoming partly the world of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, partly the poet Homer's land of the Lotus-Eaters.  Nothing seems to be working.  And no one in control seems to care.  The once secure border of 2020 vanished.  Two-million people have crossed the southern border illegally in the last twelve months.  Millions more are on the way.  The Biden Administration unilaterally and simply destroyed existing immigration law.  What followed was surreal.  The administration claimed COVID was again on the horizon.  So it justified forcing American citizens to keep wearing masks in public buildings and transportation.  But at the same time, it waived all such requirements for illegal entrants.  Citizens who obeyed our laws had to mask up; foreign nationals who broke them did not need to take such precautions.

Rhode Island Dems Introduce Bill To Double Income Taxes For Parents Of Unvaccinated Children.  Just as pandemic restrictions were starting to ease across the country, some areas have started to re-introduce mask mandates.  Philadelphia was the first major city to do so last week.  Now, Democrats in the state of Rhode Island want to impose a monthly fine of $50 for parents of unvaccinated children and double their state income taxes.  The bill was introduced by State Senator Sam Bell, who even gets flak from his Democratic colleagues in the state legislature for being radical and divisive.  Bell justified the bill by saying that there is support for vaccine mandates in the state, despite the fact that it's a clear violation of civil liberties for the unvaccinated.

The Weird Logic of COVID-19 Panic.  Start with a simple question:  Does wearing a mask protect you from COVID-19?  If the answer is "yes," and you are protected by your mask, then why does it matter whether or not other people are also wearing masks?  If you think other people must also be compelled to wear masks — because their mask protects you from their germs, supposedly — then doesn't that imply that your mask is ineffective?  But if your mask isn't working to protect you, then why do you think their mask is necessary, since you apparently don't think masks really provide a barrier to germs?  We could have a long discussion about the efficacy of masks — do they reduce the spread of airborne viruses by 10% or 20% or whatever? — but the real bottom line is that people who act as if masks will protect them from COVID-19 don't really seem to believe masks work that way, or else they would be content to protect themselves and not worry about whether other people are also wearing masks.  And we could say much the same thing about COVID-19 vaccine mandates:  If you think the vaccine will protect you, why does it matter whether other people are also vaccinated?  The fact that the arguments for mandates are so easily exposed as illogical — the people in panic mode can't really justify their panic — tells you that the real motivations are emotional in nature, reflecting a dictatorial mentality that seeks to impose conformity to rules on others.

MSNBC Guest Suggests Lying To People On A Plane To Get Them To Mask, Tell Them You Have Children With Cancer.  MSNBC's Dr Patel advising the public to carry more than one mask, and ask people around them to wear them even saying carry multiple tests!  She even went as far as suggesting lying to the people sitting around you on a plane that you have a child with cancer to guilt them into putting one of the masks you are handing to them on.  [Video clip]

CDC asks Justice Department to proceed with mask mandate appeal.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is asking the Department of Justice to proceed with its appeal of a ruling issued by a Florida judge on Monday which tossed out the Biden administration's mask mandate for public transportation passengers.  "To protect CDC's public health authority beyond the ongoing assessment announced last week, CDC has asked DOJ to proceed with an appeal in Health Freedom Defense Fund, Inc., et al., v. Biden, et al.  It is CDC's continuing assessment that at this time an order requiring masking in the indoor transportation corridor remains necessary for the public health.  CDC will continue to monitor public health conditions to determine whether such an order remains necessary.  CDC believes this is a lawful order, well within CDC's legal authority to protect public health," the statement reads.

See?  It's not about disease control; it's about accumulating and retaining power.
White House:  Legal Defense of Mask Mandate Necessary to Preserve CDC Power.  The White House on Wednesday said President Joe Biden's administration would continue to defend mask mandates leveled by the Centers for Disease Control, despite airline passengers celebrating a court ruling effectively ending them.  White House press secretary Jen Psaki defended the two-week extension of the mask mandate on planes and public transportation, arguing the CDC "felt they needed that" to examine more data about the coronavirus pandemic.  She said the Justice Department announced its willingness to defend the CDC's mandate to help preserve the agency's power over public transportation.  "I mean our focus here was seeing what power we had to preserve what we felt was in the public health interest of the country," Psaki explained.

Delta will keep its mask noncompliance no-fly list in place.  The mask mandates on the major airlines have now gone away.  Unless, of course, the Justice Department succeeds in challenging the ruling leading to the change, as they recently agreed to do.  But there's one aspect of the masking problems on planes that won't be going away for the foreseeable future, at least at Delta Airlines.  During the pandemic, Delta established its own "face mask noncompliance no-fly list," separate from the TSA's no-fly list for those suspected of having ties to terrorism.  And they announced yesterday that the list will remain in effect even now that masks are no longer required.  People may be able to get their names removed from the list, but only on a case-by-case basis and only after the prospective passengers have "proved themselves" and shown that they have reformed their ways to Delta's satisfaction.

COVID-jabbed pilots are suffering cardiac arrest, but the media remains silent to avoid creating "vaccine hesitancy".  An American pilot who almost died mid-flight from a cardiac arrest likely caused by Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) "vaccines" has come forward to share his story with the alternative media.  Since the mainstream media is refusing to even touch the story, American Airlines Captain Robert Snow took the opportunity to talk to Stew Peters about it in a recent interview, which is available through Steve Kirsch's website.  In a nutshell, Snow is incensed over the fact that the United States government is forcing pilots to take the injections — against the law, just to be clear — in order to keep their jobs.  The rule is egregious, tyrannical and simply makes no sense from an epidemiological perspective that assumes the injections actually provide protection (which they do not).

Masks have always had very little to do with protecting the public from COVID.  With the strike of a gavel, a federal court judge overturned the Biden Administration's transportation mask mandate, which was about to be extended for two more weeks into May.  "Wearing a mask cleans nothing.  At most, it traps virus droplets.  But it neither 'sanitizes' the person wearing the mask nor 'sanitizes' the conveyance," wrote U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in her April 18 ruling.  Mizelle said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) overstepped its authority under the Public Health Services Act, which allows the "inspection, fumigation, disinfection, sanitation, pest extermination, destruction ... and other measures" to protect the public.  Immediately after the ruling, multiple airlines announced they would no longer require masks on planes.  Uber and Lyft, while private companies, followed suit by stating they would no longer require users and drivers to mask up during rides.  The Department of Justice announced on Tuesday it will appeal the federal court's ruling.

A staggering number of athletes collapsed during games this past year.  More than 769 athletes have collapsed on the field during a game from March 2021 to March 2022.  The shocking statistic was revealed by One America News Network (OAN), which also found the average age of the athletes who suffered cardiac arrest is just 23 years old.  The unprecedented surge in cardiac arrest and other heart issues among elite athletes coincides with the rollout of COVID-19 jabs.  The Miami Open made headlines in early April 2022 after 15 players — all of whom had reportedly received COVID-19 injections — dropped out.  Among them were favorites Paula Badosa and Jannik Sinner.  Badosa left the court in tears after becoming unwell, and Sinner's opponent said he saw him "bend over" on the court, noting "it was very strange."

British children [are] up to 52 times more likely to die following a COVID shot: gov't report.  Britain's Office for National Statistics (ONS) has released data indicating that children who received the COVID-19 jabs have suffered a death rate 54 times greater than that of their un-jabbed counterparts.  In December, the ONS published age-standardized data on the mortality rates of individuals in 5-year age sets in Britain, grouped by their "vaccination" status for the COVID-19 shots.  The data accounts for the period from January 1 to October 31, 2021.

For anyone under 80, COVID "vaccines" are deadlier than COVID itself.  If you are not already on death's door, then getting "vaccinated" for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) is a really bad bet.  It turns out that the risks associated with getting injected if you are under the age of 80 far outweigh any alleged benefits, new research has found.  "All age groups under 50 years old are at greater risk of dying after receiving a COVID jab than an unvaccinated person is at risk of dying from COVID-19," reported Dr. Joseph Mercola.  "For those under 18, the COVID jab increases their risk of dying from COVID-19.  They're also 51 times more likely to die from the jab than they are to die from COVID if not vaccinated."  As to when a person breaches the age of 60 is there even the remotest chance that a Fauci Flu shot will do anything other than potentially cause blood clots or a heart attack, the evidence shows.  COVID "vaccines" also cause AIDS.

Ryan Campbell: 50-year-old triple-vaxxed Australian cricketer turned coach in critical condition.  No sport has been hit harder by vaccine de-population than soccer.  But high-profile Australian cricketers are trying to play catch-up, and don't mind virtue signaling on their ways out.

DOJ to appeal lifting of federal mask mandate.  The Department of Justice will appeal a federal judge's ruling vacating the federal mask mandate for public transportation, officials announced Tuesday [4/19/2022].  The DOJ and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention "disagree with the district court's decision and will appeal, subject to CDC's conclusion that the order remains necessary for public health," a Tuesday night press release says.

Poland to Pfizer:  Yeah, That Vax Contract We Signed?  We're Not Going to Honor It.  Poland last week notified drug-company Pfizer that the country will not honor its contract to purchase more vaccine doses, Reuters reports.  Hoo boy.  This one's going to court, folks.  [Tweet]  The contract in question — worth about $1.4 billion — is not directly between Pfizer and Poland; it is between the European Commission and vaccine manufacturers.  Pfizer is the biggest supplier to Poland, however, so the result is the same:  Poland is not interested in paying for or receiving any more doses.

The Shots Have Failed, So Let's Amp Up Global Vaccination Rates!  The White House on Monday announced a second global COVID-19 summit to discuss how to bolster vaccination rates internationally, despite data from around the world showing the mRNA and adenovirus-vector vaccines do not stop the spread of the virus, and appear to be associated with a higher rate of non-COVID deaths.  In a joint statement with Belize, Germany, Indonesia, and Senegal, the White House said the purpose of the summit, which is scheduled to be held virtually on May 12, will be to "redouble our collective efforts to end the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and prepare for future health threats."  "The emergence and spread of new variants, like Omicron, have reinforced the need for a strategy aimed at controlling Covid-19 worldwide.  Together, we can mitigate the impact of Covid-19 and protect those at the highest risk with vaccinations, testing, and treatments," the statement said.  "We know we must prepare now to build, sustain, and finance the global capacity we need, not only for emerging Covid-19 variants, but also future health crises."

The COVID-19 Authoritarians Panic Over the End of the Mask Mandates.  An extensive number of executive branch agencies have acted in an authoritarian manner throughout the COVID-19 era:  The Occupational Safety and Health Administration infamously attempted to cram down a vaccine mandate on every private employer in America, a policy struck down by the Supreme Court; the CDC blocked evictions for over a year based on the premise that millions would be thrown from their homes if they didn't take action.  But the CDC's travel mask mandate has been particularly annoying for Americans, given the fact that all over the country, Americans have either been vaccinated or acquired natural immunity, and there is no evidence whatsoever that cloth or surgical masks do anything against the omicron variant of COVID-19.  Nonetheless, the CDC pressed forward this month with a new extension to its mask mandate, despite the fact that the CDC simultaneously argued that beginning in late May, it would relieve Title 42, a regulation designed to allow Border Patrol to turn away likely illegal immigrants at the border.  That regulation was rooted in the premise that a COVID-19 emergency negated the legal requirement to process asylum seekers.

It's Not Just Joe Biden.  The United States Has A Potemkin Government.  Joe Biden's shameful performance at the White House Easter egg roll Sunday was another strong visual indicator that he is not really governing this country.  And he's not the only sham authority in this country — our nation is replete with them. [...] Here's another one:  The utter ridiculousness of our ruling class deliberately destroying our social fabric and the economic activity people need to stay alive in a wild overreaction to a Chinese flu that doesn't target working- and school-age people.  Then that same ruling class lavishing government workers — who worked the least during the unconstitutional mass criminalization of economic and social activity — with "bonuses"! [...] These are very people saying nothing while administrators unilaterally and indefinitely suspend any law they like, using Covid as a fig leaf.

Biden Is Caught Between A Mask And A Hard Spot.  Just days after President Joe Biden's Centers for Disease Control ordered yet another extension of the federal mask mandate, a Florida judge ruled that the agency had no authority to impose it in the first place, saying that "our system does not permit agencies to act unlawfully even in pursuit of desirable ends."  To public cheers, the TSA, Amtrak, the Washington Metro system, and other public transportation systems immediately ditched their mask requirements, even though the Biden administration is appealing the ruling in hopes overturning it.  No one, it seems, trusts the CDC anymore.  But all of this comes as COVID cases appear to be on the upswing.

Hey, here's an idea:  Maybe we can just deal with Covid by ourselves, without the forceful assistance of the government!

DOJ will appeal federal judge's ruling dropping COVID masks for public transport if CDC deems it necessary.  The U.S. Department of Justice says it will appeal a ruling that eliminated COVID-19 mask mandates for public transportation if the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) deems it necessary.  "The Department of Justice and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) disagree with the district court's decision and will appeal, subject to CDC's conclusion that the order remains necessary for public health," the DOJ said in a statement.  "The Department continues to believe that the order requiring masking in the transportation corridor is a valid exercise of the authority Congress has given CDC to protect the public health.  That is an important authority the Department will continue to work to preserve."

The Mask Mandate Is Over, and Some Leftists Are Sure We're All Gonna Die.  A federal judge struck down Biden's handlers' mask mandate, and now the true mask believers are sure that we are all doomed, doomed, I tell you. [...] Even Old Joe won't appeal the decision to set aside the mask mandate, which is a tacit admission that he and his handlers know it's nonsense, more superstition and the illusion of protection than anything else, but hey, trust the science, or whatever.

Maskaholics in the press are calling for permanent masking on trains, planes, and buses.  High school students in Seattle staged a protest demanding that a mask mandate be reinstated, and psychologists now deal with the anxieties of children who don't want their classmates to see their faces.  They're suffering from "mask dependency," as this psychological affliction is termed in Japan, where a long tradition of mask-wearing during flu season has left some individuals afraid at any time to expose their faces in public.  It's a difficult addiction to overcome, according to the Japanese therapists who specialize in treating it — but a simple remedy might help some maskaholics.  It's a graph that should be required viewing for everyone still wearing a mask and every public official or journalist who still insists that mask mandates "control the spread."

Maskaholics anonymous.  Politico Playbook reports that the White House is weighing its options in the case holding its mask mandate to be illegal.  I thought that they had to go for it and protect their phony baloney jobs protecting public health consistent with the party line over the past two years, but they see the downside and the escape hatch afforded by Judge Mizelle's ruling yesterday [418/2022].  Politico has to let us know that they (at Politico) recognize the politics of the situation, of course, but that they have no doubt about the wisdom of the absurd regime we lived under until late yesterday afternoon.

Haul Newsom And Other Blue State Pandemic Tyrants To Congress For Hearings.  What is happening to the people of Shanghai is an atrocity.  China's zero-COVID policy has literally imprisoned millions in their own homes in that nation's most populous city.  Police beatings have been reported, as have cases of extreme hunger, and "constant mental anguish and anxiety."  Don't think that could never happen in America.  We, too, have tyrants in government.  And every one of them should be compelled to sweat under the hot lights of a congressional investigative hearing.  Maybe then they would not be so eager to put Americans under house arrest again.  We now have two reports confirming what so many of us already knew: lockdowns were a colossal mistake.  The first analysis, a meta-study of dozens of other studies, found that "lockdowns have had little to no public health effects," and "should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument."  The second discovered that the states with the most laissez-faire pandemic policies fared better than the COVID police states.

Airlines, Amtrak Drop Mask Requirements after Federal Judge Blocks Mandate.  The largest American airline companies and Amtrak said they are dropping requirements to wear masks after a federal judge overturned the Biden administration's mask mandate for air travel and public transportation.  American, Delta, Southwest, United, and Alaska Airlines all said on Monday night that passengers could fly without masks, with some pilots announcing the policy change mid-flight.  U.S. district judge Kathryn Mizelle ruled Monday that the mandate violated the Administrative Procedure Act, and hours later a Biden administration official told media outlets that the mandate "is not in effect at this time."

UK Gov. report admits 19.2 million people in England have not had a single dose of a Covid-19 Vaccine.  For months the British public have been deceived with tales that there are just 5 million people in the United Kingdom who have refused to take up the offer of a Covid-19 vaccine.  But this is a complete fabrication that has no doubt been used to make those who have refused the jab feel as if they are part of a minority.  Because an official UK Government report proves that in England alone there are at least 19.2 million people who have not had a single dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, 21.8 million people who have not had two doses of a Covid-19 vaccine, and 31 million who have not had 3 doses of a Covid-19 Vaccine, meaning nearly half of England's population has become wise to the propaganda and lies spouted by the Government and mainstream media over the past two years.

A brave judge ends the federal mask mandate.  Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, a United States district judge in Florida and a Trump appointee, issued an order today striking down the hated federal mask mandate.  Staying within her lane, she didn't strike it down because even the CDC conceded that the mandate is useless, although she could have.  Instead, she properly concluded that the CDC lacked the statutory authority to issue the mandate and violated the procedures federal agencies must follow to create such rules.  Judge Mizelle's meticulous 59-page decision carefully walks through the applicable facts and law.  The gist is as stated above: the CDC exceeded its mandate when, on February 3, 2021, in response to a directive from Biden, it issued its mask mandate without allowing any public participation or comment under the Administrative Procedure Act.  The CDC's masking mandate is now dead.

Travelers cheer and whip their face coverings off as Biden administration says TSA will NOT enforce mask mandate on planes any longer.  The flight attendants' union is warning that 'inconsistent implementation of mask mandates' after the federal mask mandate on public transportation was struck down will lead to 'more violence' and confusion on planes.  'We urge focus on clear communication so that flight attendants and other frontline workers are not subject to more violence created by uncertainty and confusion,' the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA), which represents nearly 50,000 flight attendants across 17 airlines, said in a statement issued to Newsweek Monday [4/18/2022].  'The last thing we need for workers on the frontlines or passengers traveling today is confusion and chaos.  Traveling can be stressful enough and safety comes first with respect for everyone utilizing collective modes of transportation.'

Federal Judge:  Biden Airplane Mask Mandate Illegal.  President Joe Biden's "Mask Mandate" on federal airplanes is illegal, a federal judge ruled on Monday [4/18/2022] in a setback to Biden's COVID-19 agenda.  One day after taking office, Biden issued Executive Order (EO) 13998, ordering the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to develop the Mask Mandate, and for various other federal agencies like the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to implement the CDC's decisions.  EO 13998 also covered airports and other public transportation, such as buses.

Uber, Lyft Drop Mask Requirement.  Uber and Lyft lifted their respective mask requirements for U.S. passengers and drivers on Tuesday, one day after a federal judge overturned the Biden administration's mask mandate for air travel and public transportation.  "Riders and drivers are not required to wear masks when using Uber," the rideshare app told users in a message on Tuesday.  "However, the CDC still recommends wearing a mask if you have certain personal risk factors and/or high transmission levels in your area."  "Remember:  many people still feel safer wearing a mask because of personal or family health situations, so please be respectful of their preferences," Uber said in a statement.  "And if you ever feel uncomfortable, you can always cancel the trip."

Mask Mandate Is History - What Will the Flight Attendant MaskNazis Do?  Ten days ago, I was on another airplane flying home.  The woman seated directly across from me was a flight attendant.  Her flight had been canceled the day before and she was hitching a ride home.  Her mask dangled around her chin for 90 percent of the flight.  We struck up a conversation about masks.  You might have already guessed, she was not a proponent.  She called them unscientific and stupid.  She was in stark contrast to a flight a few months before when a male flight attendant stopped and stared at me.  I looked up and he told me, loudly, to "Get your mask up." Mind you, my mask was on and was covering my nose.  I inched it up and he exploded.  "ARE WE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM?!" I didn't want to be sent to the airline gulag and I pulled my mask over my entire nose.  He stared at me for a couple more seconds and then left to inspect the rest of the inmates.

Popular Infusion Could Increase COVID Hospital Stay.  In early 2020, a global pandemic spurred the world into action, especially in the science community.  Researchers began seeking to discover how the COVID-19 virus worked and to uncover the best methods for testing, treating and vaccinating.  One of the interventions that the biomedical community has been pursuing is the use of antivirals, including remdesivir.  The drug was initially analyzed during the Ebola outbreak several years ago but never approved.  Its development was the result of a collaboration involving Gilead Sciences, the CDC and the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases.  Testing was also done on SARS and MERS, which are both zoonotic coronaviruses, as well as two types of common human coronavirus which trigger the common cold.  The medication was developed with a $99 million grant from the American government.

Fauci and others knew China was withholding data on COVID-19 as pandemic began:  Watchdog.  If there ever was any proof that high-ranking government jobs should be term-limited (just like Congress), Dr. Anthony Fauci is a walking, talking, living example.  According to the findings of a legal watchdog, Fauci — head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since the early 1980s — as well as the State Department, knew that China was withholding key data on the then-emerging COVID-19 pandemic, meaning, as well, that the virus was almost certainly manufactured in a lab.  In addition, according to The Epoch Times, the National Institutes of Health sent "experts" from the NIH-funded P4 lab at the University of Texas Medical Branch to instruct Chinese technicians at the Wuhan Institute of Virology about "lab management and maintenance" approximately two years before the pandemic, according to records obtained by Judicial Watch via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit (and why does it take lawsuits to get information from government agencies when FOIA is already the law?).

Another Fully Vaxxed Young Athlete Drops Dead From Heart Attack — Media Silent.  We've posted numerous stories recently about healthy individuals suddenly dropping dead from mysterious heart conditions.  The one thing they all have in common — they were all recently vaccinated.  The latest athlete to die young from a heart attack is former Arkansas Razorback lineman and St. Louis native Brian Wallace.

Supreme Court Refuses to Hear COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate Challenge From Teachers.  The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear a New York City vaccine mandate challenge from teachers, meaning the mandate will be allowed to stand.  The nation's high court rejected the case without comment and provided no indication that any of the justices would take it.  The four teachers, who said the COVID-19-related rule violated their right to keep their profession, took their appeal to the Supreme Court after a lower court left the New York City mandate in place.  Those teachers previously asked Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who oversees the state, to provide relief that would block the mandate from going into effect, which Sotomayor also rejected.

Fauci's Agency Scrambled to Answer Questions on Changing Remdesivir Trial Endpoint:  Emails.  Dr. Anthony Fauci and top officials at the agency he heads scrambled in April 2020 to answer questions about altering the endpoint in a trial testing the antiviral drug called remdesivir, newly obtained emails show.  The endpoint was changed in the middle of the trial from measuring the effectiveness against death and various forms of hospitalization on day 15 to time to recovery through day 29.  Gilead Sciences, which makes the drug, announced the results of the trial in early April 29, 2020.  Within hours, Fauci, the longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), was trumpeting them to reporters at the White House.  The trial results proved that remdesivir "can block the virus" that causes COVID-19, said Fauci, who didn't mention the change in endpoint.

Federal judge blocks mask mandate for public transportation.  A federal judge on Monday voided the Biden administration's mask mandate for travelers using public transportation such as trains and airplanes.  The mandate from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention applies to people as young as 2 years old, and had been set to expire a number of times but was recently extended to May 3 before Monday's ruling.  The ruling from U.S.. District Court Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, came in a case brought in Florida federal court by Health Freedom Defense Fund, Inc. and frequent air travelers Ana Daza and Sarah Pope against the administration.  Judge Mizelle determined that the mandate violated the Administrative Procedure Act by being outside the scope of the CDC's authority, was "arbitrary" and "capricious" and not going through the required notice and comment period for federal rulemaking.

Never Ending Mask Mandates Bode Well for Republican Midterms.  The Biden Administration has decided to extend the federal public transportation mask mandate for another two weeks "to monitor [the] uptick in COVID-19 cases," says the AP's White House reporter.  Joe Biden couldn't be doing more to elect Republicans if he tried.  First things first:  The Biden Administration never should have issued that mandate in the first place, and certainly should have allowed that mandate to expire.  Vulnerable in-cycle Democrats — but I repeat myself — are going to be wondering what they did to anger the leader of their party so much that he decided to hurt them even more as they prepare to campaign this fall.  Second:  Let's retire the canard that the CDC "follows the science" when it makes such decisions.  That wasn't true from the beginning, and it's not true now.

COVID Vax Mandates Are Wreaking Havoc in the Military.  Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin has written 36 letters, starting in August 2020, to many agencies — FDA, CDC, NIH, NIAID, HHS, and DoD — about the mishandling of COVID-19, lack of transparency, adverse events, lack of early treatment, vaccine mandates, and health care freedom.  The DoD has not provided a single response.  Some of the other agencies have responded, although the majority of the responses received were considered incomplete.  The grossly inadequate reaction to Senator Johnson's legitimate oversight demonstrates a level of arrogance toward the American public that is unacceptable.  In particular, the lack of transparency from federal health agencies has eroded public confidence in the agencies, which will take years (and probably a complete restructuring) to repair.  Perhaps most concerning is the treatment of those in our military, who have been given an unconstitutional mandate to receive the experimental vaccine or face being ejected.  The fact that there is irrefutable evidence of vaccine adverse events for the military members getting the vaccine and expulsion for those who don't, poses a real threat to our nation's defense capabilities.

The Biden Medical State Still Won't Rule Out Vaccine Mandates for Travel.  Last week the Biden administration announced the mask mandate for federal air travel is being extended, again, until at least May 3, 2022.  The original mandate was set to expire in March.  "At CDC's recommendation, TSA will extend the Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and transportation hubs for 15 days through May 3, 2022," the Transportation Security Administration announced. [...] During an interview with Meet the Press Sunday, White House Wuhan coronavirus coordinator Dr. Jha again embraced vaccine mandates for travel — refusing to rule out the possibility — while saying the administration will "assess" mandates moving forward.

Sars-Cov-2 Kills T-Cells, Just Like HIV.  This article was not written by a bunch of random scientists, but instead was written by people from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, including the infamous batwoman Shi Zheng-Li.  Just keep this in mind.  It was originally submitted in Sep 2021 and revised in January 2022, so it does not involve Omicron.  The article is saying the following:
  •   Many patients who had severe Sars-Cov-2 had "lymphopenia", that is, depletion of the all important immune T lymphocyte cells
  •   This depletion was caused by cellular suicide (apoptosis) of T cells after infection
  •   In experimental setups involving infecting laboratory cell lines of human T cells, Sars-Cov-2 virus was able to penetrate and infect T cells

Behind the masks.  Behind the masks these days are frightened children and nervous adults who are being carefully schooled to see the world as scary and dangerous — and coerced to take ineffective defensive measures to protect themselves.  Just recently I saw an older man with wide eyes and a masked face driving alone in his car.  Why?  Why would anyone choose to wear a fresh-air-constricting, sound-blocking face covering with no danger of any kind to threaten his immediate well-being?  The misinformation and fear surrounding the masks we have all been asked to wear is overwhelming.  The city of Philadelphia has once again mandated masks for indoor settings without any serious proof that they do any good for anyone.  How many other cities are likely to follow "in an abundance of caution" as the bureaucrats like to say?

Former MSM Reporter Loses Job Over Vax Mandate, Exposes the Media.  Former mainstream media reporter Allison Royal lost her job at a major local corporate media outlet for refusing to take the experimental COVID injection, and now she is exposing the truth about the establishment propaganda machine as only an insider can.  [Podcast]

The Media's Latest Attempt at Creating Another COVID Panic Is Beyond Pathetic.  Unlike liberal America, everyone has learned to live with COVID.  It's endemic.  It's going to be here forever.  Haven't had COVID, you're lucky.  You might get it; you have the rest of your life to catch 'rona.  Others who've had it should be prepared to get it again.  It is what it is, folks.  It's the latest edition to cold and flu season; COVID will just be the third person at the party.  It's seasonal.  Get over it.  Take your stupid mask off.  We have therapeutics and vaccines.  The era of lockdowns is over.  Philadelphia idiotically reinstated their indoor mask mandate.  NO ONE followed suit which shows you where everyone is now.  The upcoming 2022 elections have also played a part. [...] And these clowns wonder why everyone is sick of this circus.  It's damaged kids psychologically beyond repair.  The mental health crisis for adolescents is going to be a nationwide epidemic, but at least they wore masks, right?  Liberals' abuse of children in schools over COVID shouldn't shock anyone.

Fighting off viruses naturally is as simple as just breathing (which is why they want you to block respiration with a toxic mask).  Harvard University scientists have discovered that one of the simplest ways to protect your body against a viral infection is to just breathe — unmasked, of course.  The act of breathing, which is completely involuntary to begin with, generates immune responses that destroy invading pathogens.  Experiments using a "lung chip" that mimics the mechanical forces of breathing were found to kill influenza, for instance.  "This research demonstrates the importance of breathing motions for human lung function, including immune responses to infection, and shows that our Human Alveolus Chip can be used to model these responses in the deep portions of the lung, where infections are often more severe and lead to hospitalization and death," said study co-author Dr. Haiqing Bai from Harvard's Wyss Institute.  It turns out that the lungs contain alveoli, which is what draws in oxygen and exchanges it with carbon dioxide for exhale.  By simply breathing, your body oxygenates itself while expelling CO2 waste, which builds immunity and protects against disease.

Rare, severe liver damage reported in kids in U.S. and Europe.  Public health officials in Europe and the United States are investigating dozens of puzzling cases of severe hepatitis in young children.  Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver.  The cause is often a virus, but the viruses that commonly cause the illness — hepatitis A, B, C, D and E — have been ruled out in the cases in question, leaving doctors searching for the culprit.  In several cases, the illness was so severe that the children needed a liver transplant.  No deaths have been reported.  The World Health Organization on Friday said it was investigating 74 cases of severe acute hepatitis in children under age 13 in the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.  Three cases were also reported in Spain, the WHO said.  It's not clear when symptoms for most of the children began, but of the first 10 identified in the U.K., nine got sick in March and one in January 2022, according to the WHO.

Masks fail their latest test.  The CDC just decided to continue the transportation mask mandate for another two weeks.  Dr. Bob Wachter, Chair of the Department of Medicine at UCSF, concurs with the CDC decision.  This doesn't prove that masks work.  Instead, it proves that the CDC, Wachter, and most mainstream scientists (who claim masks work) are incapable of differentiating solid science from a sloppy study.  There have been only two randomized trials to test whether public policy using masks to mitigate the spread of SARS-CoV-2 can reduce the spread.  The first one, in Denmark, failed to show that masks made a difference.  However, they were forced to re-write their paper to claim masks worked in order to get their study published.  This is known as "scientific corruption to match the political narrative."  But the second one, in Bangladesh, claimed that masks worked.  Nature called it a "rigorous study" and Stanford and Yale promoted it as definitive in a press release.  But was it really?  We challenged Yale Professor Jason Abaluck, the first author of that study, to defend their study.  To his credit (and our utter amazement), he agreed but with one condition:  we were only allowed one person to challenge him (because that's how science works of course).  We instantly agreed.  The discussion happened on April 3, 2022.  The result:  Abaluck failed.  Badly.  Very badly.  One of our experts who viewed the interview said that it was worse than just sloppy work.  He wrote, "This is bordering on fraud."  In short, the Bangladesh mask study again failed to prove that masks make a difference.  It was all statistical noise.

FDA and Pfizer Knew Covid Shot Caused Immunosuppression.  With another batch of 11,000 Pfizer documents, released April 1, 2022, old suspicions have gained fresh support.  As reported by "Rising" cohost Kim Iversen, the first bombshell revelation is that natural immunity works, and Pfizer has known it all along.  The clinical trial data showed there was no difference in outcomes between those with previous COVID infection and those who got the shot.  Neither group experienced severe infection.  Natural immunity was also statistically identical to the shot in terms of the risk of infection.  The second revelation is that side effects from the shots were more severe in younger people, aged 18 to 55, than those aged 55 and older.  (The risk of side effects also increased with additional doses, so the risk was higher after the second dose than the first.)

COVID 'Over' for Illegals at Border, Not Americans on Planes?  As the United States re-opened following a year of draconian lockdowns, states like California & New York, slow-walked the easing of their policies, and the Biden administration continued to push for a national vaccine mandate and left in place the mask requirement for those taking public transport.  In spite of all the data, the Biden administration announced that the nationwide mask mandate for public transit will be extended another two weeks.  On March 24, 2022, Airline CEOs said the mask mandate 'makes no sense'[.]

Depopulation Confirmed:  Ever since covid vaccines were introduced, U.S. population growth has plummeted.  For the past two years, we were told that the answer to the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) plandemic, and the thing that would "save lives," was everyone taking the Operation Warp Speed "vaccines."  It turns out, however, that population growth in the United States has reached an all-time low ever since the jabs were introduced.  In 2021, the year when most of the "fully vaccinated" got their jabs, the U.S. saw its population growth reach the lowest levels ever.  This is according to the latest data from the Census Bureau.  The year prior, 2020, was not much better, as the population growth rate in America has been declining for some time.  But things really ramped up in the depopulation department right after the "cure" for the Fauci Flu was introduced on a broad scale.  "U.S. growth didn't slowly fade away:  It slipped, and slipped, and then fell off a cliff," wrote Derek Thompson for The Atlantic.

Yale orchestra masks
Yale's Student Orchestra Wears Masks While Playing Instruments.  Yale's student orchestra appears to be continuing on with masking despite the university relaxing its campus wide mandate late last month.  Since the pandemic began, even Yale's brass and woodwind musicians have been seen wearing masks equipped with a hole while playing instruments.  Yale announced that it would be lifting its indoor mask mandate, which had been in place for just about two years, on March 10.  Calls to reimpose a mandate have grown as students and faculty point to rising case rates[.]


End the travel mask mandate now.  If you are a migrant arrested while illegally crossing the southern border, our nation's COVID emergency will be over May 23.  But if you borrowed money to pay for college, then the COVID emergency is still on at least through August and almost assuredly through Election Day.  And if you are a Democrat in Congress, the COVID emergency conveniently ended the weekend before President Joe Biden's State of the Union address.  Confusing?  Absolutely.  Is there some scientific evidence that can harmonize all these decisions?  Absolutely not.

Expect the left to exploit another emergency to avoid midterm defeat.  Those of us on the pro-freedom right logically expected the Biden administration to finally give up on the pandemic panic plan for electoral success.  The waning of the crisis made it plain that the emergency was long gone.  A clear majority of Americans say COVID is over:  just 9% think the pandemic is a "serious crisis," in a warning to lawmakers planning to bring back mask mandates and restrictions in response to the latest wave.  But then a funny thing happened as the rest of us resumed our normal lives.  While the Biden administration seemed to be all on board with putting pandemic panic theatre behind us, the people in charge were only going along so they could conveniently drop Title 42 and create a new crisis of illegal invaders, flooding in over the border.  So while we thought the emergency was over, they were just lying low to bring it back for the fall election season.  Even perennial camera hog Anthony Fauci did his part by staying out of the spotlight to avoid giving up the game.

Is the Fauci-Mengele comparison out of bounds?  Josef Mengele earned a medical degree in 1938, the same year he joined the Nazis' Waffen SS, where he volunteered for medical service.  At Nazi concentration camps, Mengele would decide which arrivals would live or die.  At Auschwitz, Mengele conducted agonizing and lethal experiments on Jewish and Gypsy twins, most of them children.  In his review of The Real Anthony Fauci, by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., economist Thomas DiLorenzo calls out Fauci's "Dr. Mengele-style 'experiments,'" which also took place on unwilling subjects.  Fauci's National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) provided funding for the Incarnation Children's Center (ICC) in New York as an outpatient clinic for HIV-positive children.  The city's Administration for Children's Services (ACS) offered up children under its care, nearly all of them African American or Hispanic, for secretive drug experimentation.  The BBC told the story in the 2004 documentary Guinea Pig Kids.

Fauci: 'You Use Lockdowns to Get People Vaccinated'.  National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Wednesday [4/13/2022] on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports" that "you use lockdowns to get people vaccinated" while discussing the extreme COVID lockdowns in China. [...] Fauci said, "China has a number of problems, two of which are that the complete lockdown, which was their approach, a strictest lockdown you'd never be able to implement in the United States.  Although that prevents the spread of infection, I remember early on they were saying, and I think accurately, they were doing better than anyone else.  You use lockdowns to get people vaccinated so that when you open up, you won't have a surge of infections.  Because you're dealing with an immunologically naive population of the virus because they've not been exposed because of the lockdown."

Wuhan Collaborator Peter Daszak Demands Nearly $1 Trillion To Fund 'Pandemic Prevention' Efforts.  EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak — who used research grants administered by Anthony Fauci to collaborate with the Wuhan Institute of Virology — has demanded that President Joe Biden invest nearly $1 trillion into "pandemic prevention," at cost to the American taxpayer.  Daszak, born and educated in the United Kingdom, is infamous for his work with Chinese Communist Party collaborators at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and the subsequent cover-up of COVID-19's origins.  Now, the disgraced scientist is demanding the U.S. taxpayer shoulder the burden of protecting against his work manipulating "killer" pathogens by funding new "protections" to the tune of nearly one trillion dollars over the coming years.

This may be completely off-topic.  Or maybe not.
Why did nearly 100 people at this high school get 'extremely' rare malignant brain tumors?  A cancer survivor is vowing to untangle the twisted mystery of why almost 100 people associated with a New Jersey high school have developed "extremely" rare malignant brain tumors.  Al Lupiano is among the 94 former staff and students from Colonia High School in the Woodbridge Township School District who have been stricken by the devastating diagnoses in recent years.  "I will not rest until I have answers," Lupiano, 50, declared in an interview with NJ.com and the Star-Ledger on Thursday.  "I will uncover the truth."

Report: Pfizer's COVID "vaccine" responsible for hepatitis outbreak in children.  Liver inflammation (hepatitis) in children is on the rise in the United Kingdom, prompting an urgent investigation by the U.K. Health Security Agency (UKHSA).  Authorities say they have no idea why the disease is spreading among young people, but the elephant in the room that they are ignoring is Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines," and particularly those made using mRNA (messenger RNA) technology.  Children as young as five are now being injected with these chemical poisons, which accumulate in the liver and cause, you guessed it:  hepatitis.  Keep in mind that hepatitis vaccines also cause diseases.  In Scotland, where people five years of age and older are also getting jabbed with mRNA, hepatitis is also on the rise.  According to reports, none of the cases currently under investigation involve any of the common viruses that cause hepatitis, further suggesting that COVID jabs are the culprit.

Dr. Peter McCullough says COVID vaccines have now killed more Americans than World War I.  Epidemiologist and cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough warned that more Americans were killed by the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine than some of the wars involving the United States.  McCullough made this claim while speaking at the COVID-19 Town Hall of OPTIMIST Bahamas on April 8.  OPTIMIST, which stands for Offering Preventing Therapeutic Interventional Medicines Increasing Safety and Trust, is an organization of doctors, other healthcare professionals, lawyers and concerned individuals who do not want countries to rely on the "vaccine only" strategy for dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.  According to its website, OPTIMIST does not want to be called "anti-vax."  The group added that its only goal is to educate the public about alternative preventative measures and treatment strategies for dealing with the coronavirus.  This includes the potential use of banned treatments and therapeutics like ivermectin.

Despite What You've Heard, Red States Handled COVID Much, Much Better Than Blue States.  One of the genius elements of the U.S. Constitution was its allowance for competing models of success and failure.  It did so by giving states great autonomy under the law while limiting what the federal government can do.  In the wake of a massive pandemic and a growing political divide among Americans, we're seeing that concept work its magic.  Two new reports that look at how the blue and red states and cities have performed during the COVID pandemic show it's no contest.  Those that hewed to the Red State model of lower taxes, less regulation, and respect for the rule of law thrived — while those that followed the "woke" blue-state model, built on socialist top-down control, forced equality, and divisive racial identity politics, suffered.  One of the new studies, by Phil Kerpen of The Committee to Unleash Prosperity, Casey Mulligan of the University of Chicago, and Stephen Moore of the Heritage Foundation, and published as a working paper by the National Bureau of Economic Research, ranked states by how they performed in three major areas during the pandemic: economics, education, and mortality.

The COVID Pandemic Lives on as Long COVID Ailment.  The Long COVID Alliance says that this chronic condition has impacted 9.4 million Americans... and counting.  As shown below many more millions of people are suffering with long COVID and getting little medical help.  Long COVID has become its own unique epidemic.  This is what a major published medical study in The Lancet said:  "Patients with Long COVID report prolonged, multisystem involvement and significant disability.  By seven months, many patients have not yet recovered (mainly from systemic and neurological/cognitive symptoms), have not returned to previous levels of work, and continue to experience significant symptom burden."  "The comprehensive assay of symptoms spans 10 organ systems (neuropsychiatric, systemic, reproductive, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, immunological, head-ear-eye-nose-throat, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, and dermatologic)."

Moderna Recalls 764,900 Doses of Covid "Vaccines".  Moderna said on Friday that it was recalling one Spikevax lot in Europe.  The batch contains 764,900 doses made by CDMO Rovi that were deployed across Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden between January 13 and January 14.  Moderna recalled the shots because of a "foreign body" found in one vial of the batch made at Rovi's site in Spain, the partners said in a release.  Many have already alerted the public that "foreign bodies" can be found in many of the "vaccines" being forced on the public right now. [...] Other than Reuters, this recall is hardly being mentioned by the mainstream media.  Moderna did not disclose what the "foreign body" found in the "one" vial was, but we have some idea.  We've seen several images from scientists and doctors who have looked at these "vaccines" under microscopes.  What was found was horrifying.

The Public's Business Ought to be Public.  Last November my organization, Empower Oversight, sued the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for failing to comply with Freedom of Information Act requests related to the agency's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Around half a dozen other entities have also been forced to go to court to compel the NIH to make pandemic documents public.  It's worth noting that this didn't need to happen.  Good lawyers charge hundreds of dollars an hour or more and hiring legal talent to pursue cases full time is not easy.  By forcing public interest groups to spend this money on litigation before complying with Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, the NIH is locking out the vast majority of Americans from accessing federal records.  It takes financial resources to most effectively probe how our government operates.  Only after suing NIH did we receive any documents.  In March, we released hundreds of emails in a report about the NIH deleting the sequences of viruses from a database they operate.  These viruses are closely related to the COVID-19 virus.

Sinema: If the CDC is extending mask mandates in transit, why is Biden lifting Title 42?  Great question.  That's one reason why Politico noticed this morning that Democrats have remained awfully quiet on the CDC's new 15 Days To Stop Air Travelers From Feeling Comfort.  We'll get to that in a moment, but Kyrsten Sinema has decided not to stay quiet on this point at all.  If the pandemic still is enough of a public-health threat in super-controlled commercial airline environments, then why is the Biden administration about to lift pandemic controls at the border?

Black waitress sues NYC mayor over COVID shot mandate.  Don't comply!  A waitress who formerly worked at Yankee Stadium but lost her job because of the COVID shot mandate imposed by New York City mayor Eric Adams is now suing him and the city.  Her suit is also fueled because of Adams' arbitrary decision to cancel the mandate for wealthy athletes. [...] Alleyne refuses to get the COVID jab for religious reasons.  The instant she said this the edict should have been thrown out the window.  New York City however is now a fascist state, ruled by edict by one man, whichever Democrat happens to be in charge at the moment.  Adams thinks wealthy athletes and performers can't get the Wuhan flu, but poor waitresses can.  Therefore, only poor waitresses must get the jab or be prevented from working.

Yeah, "15 days to flatten the curve."  We know what that means.
CDC extending travel mask mandate 15 more days.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will extend its travel mask mandate for 15 more days despite protests from airlines.  President Biden's administration had previously extended the federal mask mandate to April 18 in early March.  Airline CEOS united in calling on Biden to end the mandate on March 24, but to no avail.  Biden's CDC is making the extension due to a recent increase in COVID-19 cases in the U.S.

The Editor says...
Cases.  Here we go again.  What does "cases" mean?  How many of those "cases" have no Covid symptoms?  How many require hospitalization?  How many of them are people who already had serious health problems?  The people who are really at risk are not likely to be on an airplane anyway.

The Doctor Who Exposed Fauci's Fallacies and Got Harassed and Fired from HHS for Telling the Truth.  Dr. Paul Elias Alexander was a well-credentialed, internationally known epidemiologist invited by Trump administration officials to be part of the COVID 19 response team at the White House in April of 2020.  He packed up his family, leaving a secure and prominent position in Canada to move to Washington, DC.  But then he criticized the public health mandates by Drs.  Fauci, Collins, and Birx, and showed them research that proved they were wrong about lockdowns, school closings, masking, and social distancing.  Following that, he was silenced, harassed, and then fired.

'Biggest fraud in a generation': The looting of the Covid relief plan known as PPP.  Many who participated in what prosecutors are calling the largest fraud in U.S. history — the theft of hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer money intended to help those harmed by the coronavirus pandemic — couldn't resist purchasing luxury automobiles.  Also mansions, private jet flights and swanky vacations.  They came into their riches by participating in what experts say is the theft of as much as $80 billion — or about 10 percent — of the $800 billion handed out in a Covid relief plan known as the Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP.  That's on top of the $90 billion to $400 billion believed to have been stolen from the $900 billion Covid unemployment relief program — at least half taken by international fraudsters — as NBC News reported last year.  And another $80 billion potentially pilfered from a separate Covid disaster relief program.  The prevalence of Covid relief fraud has been known for some time, but the enormous scope and its disturbing implications are only now becoming clear.

The State and Local Leaders Who Aren't Ready to Give Up Pandemic Power.  While many government leaders sound the all clear message on COVID-19, dropping vaccine restrictions and mask mandates, some states and municipalities are clinging to the emergency powers that allowed them to govern people's behavior in unprecedented ways.  Citing the need to direct emergency funding and oversee hospitals, they have held on to their emergency orders even as many restaurants, shopping centers, and sports arenas are once again packed and lingering pandemic concerns have faded into the background of a more normal life.  Emergency orders at the state level are usually issued in response to temporary threats, especially weather disasters, and are wrapped up in a few days or weeks.  Soon after the new coronavirus exploded in March 2020, most governors issued broad executive orders.  Under these powers, governors banned crowds, closed businesses, and imposed mask and vaccination mandates.  They have also deferred to unelected public health officials in imposing restrictions.

The CDC has perfected their fear and intimidation techniques over the years.  [Scroll down]  If the CDC is telling us the truth, then why would they have to resort to intimidation techniques like these?  Two of our team members told me similar stories about CDC intimidation.  There was no overlap in the stories but in both cases, the people at the CDC were scared enough not to reveal anything.  Surely, the HHS Inspector General's office should know why intimidation techniques are necessary at the CDC, wouldn't they?  Maybe someone in Congress could ask them?  Do you want to know how they can get away with using such techniques?  It's simple:  the CDC is untouchable; they can do no wrong.  It's as simple as that.  If VAERS shows that over 400,000 Americans were killed by the vaccine and the CDC says that they haven't found a causal relationship, the vaccines are perfectly safe.

Ten Steps to Totalitarianism.  Does anybody still think totalitarianism can't happen here?  Ask yourself how many of these steps we've already galloped past. [... #10] Digital Identity Tracking:  What started with Obamacare and socialized medicine and quickly expanded with Democrat cities' experimentation with COVID-19 digital passports is set to go into overdrive with the introduction of central bank digital currencies.  If government-issued cyber-monies replace the relative anonymity of physical cash, then no purchase, donation, or investment can be free from the prying eyes of the State.  Combined with government control over health care and the imposition of mandatory digital IDs, the State will have created the perfect surveillance system.  When all human activity is monitored and social credit scores are the norm, personal choice disappears.

Idaho gov defends employer vaccine mandates as 'limited government' after having locked down his state.  On Sept. 23, 2020, three members of Christ Church were charged with a crime for not identifying themselves to the police when they were arrested for either not "social distancing" or not wearing masks ... outdoors.  No, this was not in Australia; it was in Moscow, Idaho.  A state which saw so many people from California flee to in order to find freedom, yet which Gov. Brad Little turned into a living nightmare for life, liberty, and property for a year.  Now, he is blocking bills prohibiting employer vaccine mandates by hiding under the principles of ... limited government?

Every House Democrat Voted Against Stopping the Government 'Monitoring And Prosecuting' Unvaccinated Americans.  All House Democrats on the Judiciary Committee voted against a proposed amendment to a domestic terrorism bill that would have prevented American intelligence and security agencies from receiving taxpayer funds to "monitor, analyze, investigate or prosecute" Americans unvaccinated against COVID-19.  Rep. Thomas Massie broke the news of the party line vote amidst a Judiciary Committee debate over a domestic terrorism bill via Twitter, revealing "Due to a troubling DHS bulletin, @RepAndyBiggsAZ offered an amendment to prevent the targeting of Americans due to their views on COVID vax."  "Every Dem. voted against his amdt!," the Kentucky Congressman continued.  The bill in question, H.R. 350 or the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act of 2021, authorizes various federal agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation to use taxpayer-funded resources to "analyze and monitor domestic terrorist activity" and "take steps to prevent domestic terrorism."

Coming soon: the Great Vax crash.  Last week, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced a strategic partnership with biotechnology company Moderna to establish a state-of-the-art, mRNA vaccine manufacturing facility in Melbourne.  Unfortunately for the PM, enthusiasm for booster shots, like the immunity they purport to provide, appears to be waning.  Covid vaccination commander Lieutenant-General John Frewen explaining the phenomenon this week said, 'Some people are just a bit over the whole Covid thing'.  That's bad news not just for Moderna but for Australia taxpayers.  Not only has Health Minister Greg Hunt signed up for millions of shots under existing agreements with Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Novavax, but Australia will be locked into buying Moderna product and the company says it plans to produce up to 100 million mRNA vaccine doses annually against Covid-19, seasonal influenza, respiratory syncytial virus and other potential respiratory viruses.  Will Moderna be able to produce these vaccines?  Other than the Covid jabs, which only have provisional authorisation, it has never brought anything to market.  That hasn't deterred the government, but a more sceptical assessment is being made by some on Wall Street.

Politicians take note.  COVID is "over".  We're still waiting to find out if President Joe Biden will allow the mask mandate for public travel to expire on April 18th or if he will extend it yet again.  While he's making his decision, he might want to take a peek at a new Axios/Ipsos poll that was just released this week.  They asked Americans a variety of questions about how serious the threat from COVID was at this point and if the pandemic was still a major driving concern.  While it may come as a great surprise to some people, particularly inside the White House and among cable news hosts, people really aren't seeing this as a crisis requiring any extravagant government intervention at this point.  In fact, it sounds like a large majority of Americans crossing party lines and every other demographic are done with the pandemic.

The Illusion of Evidence-Based Medicine.  There is a big flaw in the logic of evidence-based medicine as the basis for the practice of medicine as we know it, a practice based on science; one that determines care down to the level of the individual patient.  This flaw is nestled in the heart and soul of evidence-based medicine, which (as we have seen over the last two years) is not free of politics.  It is naive to think that data and the process of licensure of new drugs is free from bias and conflicts of interest.  In fact, this couldn't be any farther from the truth.  The COVID-19 crisis of 2020 to 2022 has exposed for all to see how evidence based medicine has been corrupted by the governments, hospitalists, academia, big pharma, tech and social media.  They have leveraged the processes and rationale of evidence-based medicine to corrupt the entire medical enterprise.  Evidence based medicine depends on data.  For the most part, the data gathering and analysis process is conducted by and for the pharmaceutical industry, then reported by senior academics.

Know the Absolute Risk Reduction of the COVID-19 Vaccines! Part 1.  The absolute risk reduction of the COVID-19 Vaccines are:
  •   Pfizer-BioNTech — 0.84 %
  •   Moderna — 1.2 %
  •   Gamaleya (Sputnik) — 0.93 %,
  •   J&J — 1.2 %
  •   AstraZeneca — 1.3 %.
Intrigued? Read on. You probably have heard the numbers showing the vaccine efficacy of COVID-19 shots by now.
  •   Pfizer-BioNTech 95%
  •   Moderna 90%
  •   Gamaleya (Sputnik) 90%,
  •   J&J 67%
  •   AstraZeneca 67%.
Vaccine efficacy is another name for relative risk reduction (RRR).  The relative risk (RR) ratio of attack rates with and without the vaccine.  It is used in vaccine research to compare results between vaccine trials.  RRR sounds impressive because of the high numbers, which is why it is used in press releases to disseminate news agencies.  Medical representatives also tell physicians these numbers.  But if RRR is presented alone, it introduces a reporting bias, and RRR only means half of the story.  The FDA requires that RRR be reported together with the absolute risk reduction (ARR).  That's because the ARR is more relevant to the person getting the vaccine.

McCullough On Reverse Transcription.  We wrote previously about the Swedish study (University of Malmo) that concluded that Pfizer's mRNA injections do, in fact, alter human DNA — reverse transcription.  Unfortunately searching this site is a real headache.  I'll just say that, naturally, those conclusions in the Swedish Study have raised great interest and, from the medical establishment, a great deal of pushback about "anti-vaxxers" — which the Swedish scientists are not. [...] However, here's a video embedded in a tweet that features Dr. Peter McCullough discussing the implications.  The video is only two minutes long, but it's couched in readily understandable language.  And it is stunning in its implications.  What could be very interesting about this is that it seems these results are caused by the injections, rather than the virus itself.  [Tweet with video clip]

Here We Go Again:  Mask Mandates Are Coming Back.  Most elected Democrats seemed to have gotten the memo back in February that continued COVID restrictions were politically untenable moving forward, so a new normal was abruptly declared.  People who'd inveighed against Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin's sensible school masking policy in Virginia just days earlier suddenly decided the time had come to move toward similar or identical policies elsewhere. [...] Philly's COVID numbers aren't bad at all amid the current case bump, but the brain trust at city hall has decided to bring back the mandates.  The announcement came "on a day when hospitalizations in Pennsylvania are the lowest they've been since last July and deaths are the lowest they've been since last August," Allahpundit notes.

You Cannot Boost Your Way Through COVID.  That the mRNA-based COVID shot is not a real vaccine is evidenced by the sheer number of "boosters" required to keep COVID-19 at bay.  When the injections were released at the beginning of 2021, the promises flowed.  Getting the two-dose regimen was said to be 95% effective and would keep you safe from serious infection.  If everyone would just roll up their sleeves and get the jab, the pandemic would be over in no time.  By mid-July 2021, just over half the adult U.S. population had received the shot.  (Specifically, 56% had received one dose, and 49% were fully vaccinated with two doses.)  Well, before the year was over, reality started setting in, as effectiveness waned far more rapidly than anyone expected.  What's worse, the shot actually increased the infectivity of the Delta variant, and toward the latter part of 2021, hospitals around the world were starting to fill up with "vaccinated" COVID patients.  A preprint study, posted April 3, 2022, also reports high rates of infection with BA.1, BA.1.1 and BA.2 — variants of Omicron — among triple-jabbed health care workers.  In all, the incidence rate among the triple-jabbed with one of these variants was 22%, and only 10% remained asymptomatic.

Philadelphia reinstates mask mandate, encourages residents to snitch on non-compliant businesses.  The city of Philadelphia has reinstated a city-wide face mask mandate, public health officials announced, in an apparent attempt to quell the spread of COVID-19.  The city will become the first major U.S. city to turn back on dropping mask requirements, enacting a city-wide mandate from April 18 enforcing the wearing of face coverings in all indoor public spaces, "including schools and childcare settings, businesses, restaurants, and government buildings," an announcement from Philadelphia Public Health stated Monday [4/11/2022].  Masks were still required in healthcare settings, including in nursing homes, and on public transport in Philadelphia before the mandate was expanded. [...] The government requested that private citizens snitch on business owners who fail to implement the resurrected mandate by calling the local emergency services to lodge a complaint.

Girls are developing genital ulcers after getting the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.  Young girls, some as young as five years old, are developing genital ulcers due to Pfizer's Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) mRNA vaccine.  This is according to published peer-reviewed articles and data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), the federal government's program for collecting reports about adverse events related to vaccinations.  One of the recently published medical journal articles talking about the post-vaccine genital ulcers was published this month in the Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology.  The study, titled "Post COVID-19 Vaccination Vulvar Aphthous Ulcers:  An Unpopular Case Series," was conducted by three doctors in the pediatric and adolescent gynecology department at Mercy Children's Hospital in Kansas, Missouri.

Will Mandatory Covid Theater Ever End For College Students?  Universities across the country have increasingly rolled back Covid restrictions in recent weeks, giving many high school seniors hope their college experience will not be marred by the policies that, for more than two years, ruined that of their older siblings and peers.  Most commonly, this rollback has entailed quietly dropping policies pertaining to forced isolation and social asceticism, as well as lifting mask mandates in near lock-step with local and state political shifts on mask policy.  Some schools, such as the University of Iowa, largely operate as if it were 2019, without any broad requirements for masking, social distancing, regular Covid testing, or Covid vaccination.

Mask Hysteria Busts Back Into the Room Like the Kool-Aid Man.  As Greg Price notes, Philadelphia is averaging only two deaths a day from COVID-19.  The seven-day average for cases stands at just 170.  Is that a precipitous increase compared to say, last week?  No, it's not, as cases remain relatively flat and lower than they were in January and February.  Yet, the mask mandate is back anyway, forced on the population with no basis at all.  Where did the will to do this come from?  Look no further than the Biden administration, which had its lackeys out on Sunday preaching the gospel of indoor masking again.  [Video clip]

Philadelphia revives mask mandate as COVID-19 cases surge.  Philadelphians will have to wear masks inside public spaces again as the pandemic resurfaces in the city, where COVID-19 infections have spiked in recent weeks, city officials said Monday.  "Starting today, we're asking businesses to dig up those 'masks required' signs and start hanging them in your windows," Cheryl Bettigole, the city's health commissioner, said in a a news conference Monday afternoon.  "Beginning Monday, April 18, our health inspectors will begin enforcing the mask mandate again," she added, noting that the city is allowing a week's grace period to get the word out.

Not a single House Democrat supports freedom for unvaccinated Americans.  Every single House Democrat on the Judiciary Committee voted against a proposed amendment to a domestic terrorism bill that would have prevented deep state intelligence and security agencies from using American taxpayer dollars to "monitor, analyze, investigate or prosecute" Americans who refuse to get "vaccinated" for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19).  Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) broke the news about the party line vote on Twitter, revealing that "Due to a troubling DHS bulletin, @RepAndyBiggsAZ offered an amendment to prevent the targeting of Americans due to their views on COVID vax."  "Every Dem. voted against his amdt!"  Massie lamented about the Democrats' flagrant disregard for Americans' constitutional rights.

7 COVID 'Conspiracy Theories' That Came True.  2021 was a great year for "conspiracy theorists."  For the past two years, Democratic politicians, the corporate media, and Big Tech have embarked on the largest censorship campaign in American history to shut down any speech that contradicted the guidelines from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Anthony Fauci.  In the first few months of the pandemic alone, Facebook censored more than 7 million posts with "Coronavirus misinformation." However, time tends to benefit the truth.  In the end, it turned out that the so-called "conspiracy theories" were right all along.  Now, the "conspiracy theorists" will go down as being on the right side of history.

Big Study Finds Non-Vaccinated are Healthier than Vaccinated.  In 2011, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services commissioned a study to be conducted by Harvard-Pilgrim Healthcare to determine how accurately the U.S. Government's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System ("VAERS") had been keeping an accounting of the vaccine injuries and deaths the American people were suffering.  The resulting report opens with the words "vaccine adverse events are common."  The report concludes that "less than one percent (1%) of vaccine side-effects are ever reported".  This horrifying revelation was swiftly concealed and fully censored by the media.  This censorship continues to this day and is buttressed by heavy search-engine and social media censorship, Joy Garner, founder of The Control Group, wrote in the summary and guide to The Control Group Pilot Study.  "The vaccine marketing slogan "safe" has always depended upon the disproven adjective 'rare' in reference to side effects.  In the American Restatement (Second) of Torts 402A (comment k) vaccines are formally classified as 'unavoidably unsafe'.  But we are told vaccines are 'safe'.  Vaccines are not only unsafe, they are 'unavoidably' so.  And the injuries are common, a minimum of 100 times more common than the VAERS will report [...]"

NYC Council Bill to Demand That Mayor Rehire Unvaxxed City Workers.  The New York City Council will be introducing a resolution calling on Mayor Eric Adams to rehire city employees who were fired for noncompliance with the city's Covid-19 vaccination mandate.  The resolution would also demand that private businesses rehire employees who were fired for refusing to get a Covid shot.  A nonbinding bipartisan resolution is planned to be introduced on Thursday by City Council Minority Leader Joseph Borelli (R-South Shore), according to Staten Island's SILive Per the outlet, about 1,430 city employees were terminated on February 11 for failing to get vaccinated against Covid.  That number will most likely increase in the near future, as thousands of medical and religious exemption requests have not yet been processed.  According to Reuters, 64 percent of the terminated workers served in the city's education department.

The Absolute Risk Reduction of the Pfizer Biontech Booster Shot.  Pfizer Biontech announced that their COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Dose showed a high efficacy rate based on their Phase 3 Trial Data.  The Pfizer Biontech is incomplete because they only stated the Relative Risk.  It should also show the Absolute Risk Reduction that applies to an individual.  This article shows that only one person will benefit out of 48 people who will get the Pfizer Biontech booster.  This piece will show why that "vaccine effectiveness" is only suitable for five months.

Proof Covid Wasn't as Bad as It Appeared — How the Pandemic Was Fabricated:
  •   The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and individual states are now backtracking on their COVID death statistics, showing those of us who claimed deaths were being overcounted were right all along
  •   March 14, 2022, the CDC removed 72,277 COVID deaths from the tally, including 24% of those attributed to children under 18.  They claim a "coding logic error," a faulty algorithm, had "accidentally" counted deaths that weren't related to COVID, such as drowning deaths and drug overdoses
  •   The CDC used the false death statistics among children to push for COVID shots for 5- to 7-year-olds back in November 2021
  •   As of February 2, 2022, the U.S. Health and Human Services is no longer collecting data on hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19
  •   Deaths were initially exaggerated for political — both national and geopolitical — purposes, and now they're being downplayed for the same reason.  Democrats know they cannot win in the midterms unless they declare victory over COVID-19

Researchers: Nearly Half Of Accounts Tweeting About Coronavirus Are Likely Bots.  Nearly half of the Twitter accounts spreading messages on the social media platform about the coronavirus pandemic are likely bots, researchers at Carnegie Mellon University said Wednesday.  Researchers culled through more than 200 million tweets discussing the virus since January and found that about 45% were sent by accounts that behave more like computerized robots than humans.  It is too early to say conclusively which individuals or groups are behind the bot accounts, but researchers said the tweets appeared aimed at sowing division in America.  "We do know that it looks like it's a propaganda machine, and it definitely matches the Russian and Chinese playbooks, but it would take a tremendous amount of resources to substantiate that," said Kathleen Carley, a professor of computer science at Carnegie Mellon University who is conducting a study into bot-generated coronavirus activity on Twitter that has yet to be published.

The Debasement of our Professional and Political Classes.  [Scroll down]  Do we remember "the over 1,000 health professionals" who in 2020 signed a letter of conscience, assuring us that:  ...we wanted to present a narrative that prioritizes opposition to racism as vital to public health, including the epidemic response.  We believe that the way forward is not to suppress protests in the name of public health but to respond to protesters demands in the name of public health, thereby addressing multiple public health crises.  So, in "follow the science fashion" we were told not just that some violations of strict masking, quarantines, and lockdowns were more equal than others, but that flagrantly ignoring health mandates entirely was, in Orwellian fashion, actually good for the health of the exempt.  Do we remember the 27 Lancet "scientists" who signed the now infamous letter reassuring us the Wuhan lab played no role in the origins in COVID? Do we also recall that all but one of these progressive humanitarians failed to disclose that they themselves had connections with Wuhan?

20 questions they don't want to answer.  The problem I have is simple:  the data clearly shows that it is the CDC and other government agencies that are spreading misinformation, not me.  In order to resolve the conflict, I'm going to make the following offer in good faith:  I will happily stop spreading "misinformation" if you all would just take a few minutes to answer a few questions for me.  Fair enough?  Will you do that? [...] Here are my questions:
  [#1]   Why no debates?  Why won't any mainstream doctors or scientists or public health officials (or any other health authority for that matter) debate me or any of my colleagues in a live, recorded debate?  I even offer some people (members of the ACIP and VRBPAC committees) $1 million just to come to the debate table and it made no difference.  We can't even get any of them to propose any ground rules that they will accept!  For example, Professor Makary proposed debate terms (which weren't a debate) and then ignored me when I tried to accept them.
  [#2]   VAERS safety signals flashing red since January 2021.  How could the CDC and the FDA possibly miss all the safety signals in VAERS which have been flashing red since January 2021 for thousands of symptoms, some elevated by 1,000X or more?  Why did they ignore all attempts to bring this to their attention (if it wasn't already obvious).  They clearly must have known in January that the data coming in didn't match the claims in the clinical trials.  The profile of the VAERS data (chart of symptom vs. # reports) looks nothing like previous vaccines.
[Questions 3 through 20 omitted only for brevity.]

Sunday Talks, Fauci Warns of Potential Return of Indoor Mask Mandate.  Appearing on ABC's This Week to give his opinion on the current status of COVID-19, White House medical advisor Anthony Fauci warns the CDC may soon revert back to an indoor mask mandate.  This is additionally troublesome, because many people now define themselves by COVID-19.  There are many people who can only identify with other like-minded people fearful of COVID.  [Video clip]  There are [sic] a significant portion of the American public who worship at the altar of COVID theatrics.  For them getting booster shots, following the CDC orders and participating in the mask theatrics is a profoundly religious experience that defines who they are in the modern world of pandemic fear.  Observing the behaviors of mask promoters, is almost like watching a livestream of unstable political expression.  It truly is one of the most bizarre new realities.  Many of the Branch Covidians become mentally and emotionally unstable when they experience contact with a non-mask-wearing person.

Australia's Sunday Footy Show hosts link on-field heart issues to vaccine booster shots.  [Video clip only.]

Proof that blue states DID fail their people during pandemic.  States that imposed the harshest lockdowns had the most devastating impact on the public, the most wide-ranging study into Covid restrictions in the US to date has found.  New York, California, New Jersey and Illinois were panned for their pandemic performance after bringing in draconian measures to shut their citizens in their homes.  Those states' Democrat Governors' policies caused high death rates, ruined children's education and destroyed businesses due to the severe curbs on freedom, researchers found as they slapped them with an F-grade.

Fauci says it's now up to Americans to assess their own COVID-19 risk.  Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday [4/10/2022] appeared to throw in the towel on more government restrictions over COVID-19 — insisting it's now up to Americans to make their own medical risk assessments.  "This is not going to be eradicated, and it's not going to be eliminated," Fauci told ABC's "This Week."  "And what's going to happen is that we're going to see that each individual is going to have to make their calculation of the amount of risk that they want to take."  The White House chief medical adviser said Americans will have to consider factors such as their age, vaccination status and whether they live with vulnerable individuals when it comes to coronavirus precautions.

There are some things you can question and some things you can't.  In today's America, there are some things one can question... and some things one cannot.  You can question the existence of God. [...] You can question your own gender, but you can't question the LGBTQ agenda in any way, shape or form — for any reason.  Nor can you question the process or results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, in any way, whether on a national, state, or local level.  If you do, you will promptly be cancelled, disappeared, or otherized.  Seriously questioning how COVID-19 was loosed upon the globe is also strictly verboten.  As is asking questions about the Biden family's ties to — and relations with — China or Ukraine.  In fact, you can't ask a pertinent question of Biden at all.

The History of Population Control is Important for Understanding COVID-19.  Reducing global population has been a consistent goal of the ruling class for centuries.  While many support the abstract idea of population control, no one wants to volunteer to be the ones who are culled.  The business of population control has hence been a very messy subject.  When the COVID vaccine program began, I — and likely many others — suspected the COVID vaccines would have an "unexpected" side effect of reducing fertility.  Early in their development, Mike Yeadon (and others) at great personal risk publicly warned regulators of a clear fertility danger inherent to the vaccine (found in section IX of their petition).  Subsequent regulatory document leaks from the European FDA revealed Pfizer exempted themselves from testing the key areas of concern (infertility, autoimmunity and cancer) in animals.  This highly unusual moved further suggested serious problems existed in these three areas (as you can't find something if you don't test for it).

And Just Like That, Doctors Have Their Autonomy Back.  [M]ost of what medical students learn early in medical school will be obsolete before they graduate, the same for residents from the beginning to the end of their residency program.  This is why physicians learn on the job, gaining wisdom from their observations and experiences, changing their practices accordingly.  Hence the popularity of off-label treatments, reflecting new knowledge gained long after the on-label treatment was developed, or FDA approved.  This is how physicians remain on the cutting edge, by innovating and growing in a thoughtful and scientific way, not simply doctors playing cowboy and experimenting on their patients.  The COVID pandemic brought this to light.  Diagnostic and therapeutic protocols were developed by the behemoth medical and government bureaucracies at the pace one would expect from such organizations.  Where are we on early outpatient treatment, designed to keep early and mild cases out of the hospital and ICU, where the risk of death and disability rises dramatically?  COVID has been with us for over two years now and there are no officially sanctioned early treatment protocols.

COVID Legislative News.  There has been some good news on the legislative front in the past week.  But unfortunately, there are still a number of bills and regulatory policies pending that could change the very nature of a pandemic response worldwide.  Policy that would allow public health to easily gain control of government during a bio-threat emergency.  Policy that might allow public health to be weaponized for other purposes.  What happens when emergency powers are written so that they can be granted for a severe flu season?  Could we expect lock downs, masks, mandatory vaccination, censorship, propaganda and social distancing as seasonal events?  What happens when there is civil unrest and these measures are used to control dissent.  Who will be in control of such policies?  Will these decisions be made at the Federal level, the European Union, the UN and/or the World Health Organization (WHO)?

Rand Paul:  Did Nancy Pelosi Receive Monoclonal Antibodies?  Friday, during an appearance on FNC's "Hannity," Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) suggested there was a possibility of a double standard for Democratic politicians and the public for receiving monoclonal antibodies.  The Kentucky Republican U.S. Senator asked if recently COVID-diagnosed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) had received those therapies while they were restricted for those in the general public.

COVID, Gender, Climate, and the Collapse of Science.  [Scroll down]  Having thus unmoored ourselves from the lines of ordinary rational discourse, the world was ready to react to a pandemic of middling dimensions, by comparison to past such events, with brobdingnagian overreaction.  We let a career NIH bureaucrat who had been an expert in infectious disease, but not epidemiology, become the de facto czar of our response to the epidemic.  The NIH largely limited itself to vaccine research to the disregard of therapeutics.  The CDC, which should have monitored the epidemiological response to the disease, was limited to issuing contradictory or inaccurate declarations.  The response pattern that had been established for climate change and gender transformation was again employed to deal with the epidemic.  In retrospect it appears that the government, or major parts of it, saw the new disease as an opportunity to control the populace rather than minister to it.  The implications of our response to the pandemic on society, education, economics, and all the sundry activities of daily life were ignored.  Everything was subordinated to masks, lockdowns, and social isolation — all of which proved futile.  One can understand a misdirected approach to a new disease that took us unawares, but to persist in error after the errors were clearly delineated was more than foolishness:  it was an attempt to impose government control which could be used later for other centralized actions, or both.

I Learn Something New Every Day.  [Scroll down]  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tested positive two days after she closely mingled with, hugged and kissed President Biden.  Her spokesperson said she was fully vaccinated and boosted and will quarantine as she encouraged "everyone to get vaccinated, boosted and test regularly."  While she stood close to the President as they celebrated the signing of an executive order to remedy the "glitch" in Obamacare, and she hugged and kissed him, the White House insists she and the president were not in "close contact" something the CDC indicates is sustained unmasked contact within six feet for more than 15 minutes. [...] Using the CDC guideline on what constitutes "close contact" church services were banned, and businesses, schools, and restaurants were shuttered.  This would not be the first time Speaker Pelosi violated CDC guidelines.  Even as she required all House members to wear masks on the floor of the House (and fined those who disobeyed) she ignored the mask rules then in place to get her hair done.  The rule rescinding masking in the House was lifted at the end of February, in time for the State of the Union address.

In pursuit of zero COVID, China starves its citizens.  For some time now, China has presented itself as a rapidly ascending nation that is completely in charge of its destiny and one that escaped COVID with little harm.  However, that appearance may be illusory and China may be more unstable than the image it promotes to the world.  China, with a bit of help from Fauci's NIH, gave the world the gift of COVID.  Even if it didn't create the virus in a Wuhan lab (although I believe it did), China's policy was to hide the virus, and then, even as it locked down its own people, it put Chinese citizens on airplanes to spread the virus throughout the world.  Whether this was simply because the communist Chinese government doesn't care about the outside world or because it had a nefarious plan, the effect was the same:  A pandemic began that had crippling effects on the world at large.

RE: Malone v.  The New York Times Company et al.  [Text of a demand letter from Dr. Malone's attorney.]

School Guards Assaulted, Framed Single Father For Refusing To Mask 7-Year-Old Son.  Surveillance footage obtained by the Gateway Pundit confirms Denver Public Security Guards employed with Lowry Elementary School in Denver, Colorado assaulted the single father of a 7-year-old boy for refusing to send his son to school in a mask.  As the Gateway Pundit reported, Lowry Elementary school officials persistently harassed 42-year old Anthony Chavez for standing by his decision to send his son Chase to school unmasked after the state's governor rescinded the mask mandate for indoor venues.

I thought that game was over.
Hospital Refuses to Give 9-Year-Old Boy Life Saving Kidney Transplant Because Father is Unvaccinated.  A hospital in Cleveland is refusing to a provide a 9-year-old boy a life-saving kidney transplant because his father hasn't taken the COVID-19 vaccine.  Yes, really.  Dane Donaldson was found to be a perfect donor match for his son Tanner back in 2018 before the pandemic began.  Knowing that transplanted kidneys from live donors only last for about 20 years, the family decided to delay the procedure.  Now the Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital is refusing to perform the operation because the father is unjabbed.

Peter Daszak was hand-picked by the Chinese Communist Party to be a covid investigator.  Remember when EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak was called in by the World Health Organization (WHO) to help lead an "investigation" into the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19)?  It turns out that this decision was made by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).  A former staffer from the group revealed that Daszak was hand-picked by the CCP to lead the investigation because the communist regime knows that he is aligned with their interests rather than the interests of public health.  After all, Daszak has long been tied to communist China as one of its allies and assets.  Daszak led numerous conferences sponsored by various CCP-run "scientific" organizations, and has also co-authored studies funded by the Chinese government.  Daszak also participated in conferences run by communist China's state-run propaganda outlets.  Evidence of this was seen when Daszak took to defending the CCP during the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) plandemic, claiming that many people "misunderstand the Chinese government" and its intentions.

Fauci Fears 2022 Republican Takeover of Congress.  If you follow The Daily Bell or other independent news outlets that tell the truth, you are already likely familiar with the COVID crimes against humanity that Anthony Fauci facilitated.  Leveraging his role as the leading "public health" authority (while raking in the highest salary of any federal employee), Warlord Fauci:
  •   funneled cash into dangerous gain-of-function research in a CCP-controlled Wuhan bioweapons lab
  •   relentlessly promoted mRNA gene therapies deceptively marketed as "vaccines and the cover-up of their side effects.
  •   orchestrated media campaigns to discredit and smear his political opponents.
... among many more improprieties.
Fauci, of course, is likewise intimately familiar with his moral atrocities — and he likely knows that independent journalists have only scratched the surface of his criminality.  Further investigation would almost certainly uncover greater and more numerous offenses.

Babies Struggle to Understand "Basic Facial Expressions" as a Result of Adults Wearing Masks.  Adults wearing masks as a result of COVID lockdown rules has created a generation of babies who struggle to understand "basic facial expressions" and have stunted speech and language development.  The conclusion os based on an Ofsted report that warns of serious delays in learning caused by lockdown restrictions.  "Children turning two years old will have been surrounded by adults wearing masks for their whole lives and have therefore been unable to see lip movements or mouth shapes as regularly," states the report.  Despite a highly contentious debate over the effectiveness of face masks, mothers giving birth were forced to wear face coverings in NHS hospitals.

Mask Wearing Has Left a Generation of Toddlers Struggling With Speech and Social Skills.  Lockdown restrictions, including adults wearing face masks, has left a generation of babies and toddlers struggling with speech and social skills, according to an official report.  Inspectors working for Ofsted found that infants being surrounded by adults wearing face masks for significant periods of time over the last two years has damaged their learning and communication abilities.  Those turning two "will have been surrounded by adults wearing masks for their whole lives and have therefore been unable to see lip movements or mouth shapes as regularly," the report found.  "Some providers have reported that delays to children's speech and language development have led to them not socialising with other children as readily as they would have expected previously," it added.

833 Athlete Cardiac Arrests and Serious Issues, 540 Dead, Following Covid Injection.  A total of 15 players were unable to finish the Miami Open 2022 tennis tournament, including the male and female favourites.  All of the players must be "fully vaccinated" to compete, the Liberty Daily wrote, "just as we've noted for several months, most major sports have been hit with 'inexplicable' medical conditions popping up in young and otherwise healthy athletes, including our report that three cyclists fell in March alone."  The so-called health professionals running the Covid "vaccine" programs around the world keep repeating that "the Covid vaccine is a normal vaccine and it is safe and effective."  But as of the end of last month, Good Sciencing has recorded 833 athletes, worldwide, who have had cardiac arrests or other serious issues, with 540 dead, post-Covid injection.

Shanghai Now Under Severe Covid Lockdown.  While world attention is riveted on Ukraine, another great crisis is building in the People's Republic of China.  For more than a week, the entire city of Shanghai has been on total lockdown in response to an out-of-control Covid/Omicron outbreak that has engulfed China's (and the world's) largest city.  It all began in early March, when locally transmitted cases of the Omicron variant, apparently traceable to a huge outbreak in Hong Kong, began cropping up all over Shanghai.  Because of the city's crucial role in the Chinese and world economy, Chinese authorities were reluctant to impose on Shanghai what has been imposed in the past on other, lesser Chinese cities such as Wuhan and Xi'an — namely, a total lockdown.  Individual neighborhoods and residential areas across Shanghai were locked down aggressively in response to local cases, but the city remained largely open for business.  But by the end of March, it was apparent that the highly contagious Omicron variant was not to be denied.

Shannon Urquhart: 52-year-old Australia woman suffers tremors, neurological issues after two mRNA injections, doctors blame alcohol withdrawal.  A 52-year-old self-employed health and beauty therapist is adjusting to her new life of unpredictability and navigating her way through a dismissive medical system.  Ms. Shannon Lee Urquhart, like many vaxx-injured individuals, did not post much publicly on social media about her condition until recently.  The first subtle hint that something wasn't right came on December 10.

Why Are So Many Democrats Coming Down With COVID?  My colleague Matt Margolis covered the news that Vice President Kamala Harris's communications director tested positive for COVID after attending a bill-signing ceremony.  And PJ Media's Cameron Arcand reports that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi also tested positive after attending the same event.  But the real super-spreader event occurred on Saturday night [4/2/2022] at the annual Gridiron Dinner as more than a dozen politicians and media types have all reported contracting the coronavirus.  Among them:  Reps.  Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Joaquin Castro (D-Texas.); Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo; and Attorney General Merrick Garland.  Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser announced she tested positive.  Also testing positive:  Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont; Rochester, N.Y., Mayor Malik Evans; Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan; Austin Mayor Steve Adler; and Arizona Democrat Rep. Tom O'Halleran.  Are Republicans suddenly — dare I say it — immune?

Will a fourth COVID shot save you?  Pfizer sold an estimated $32 billion's worth of COVID vaccines in 2021.  Much smaller Moderna sold around $17.7 billion's worth of COVID vaccines in 2021.  The stocks of both companies are down from highs late last year, with Moderna's performing particularly poorly, shedding around 66% of its value since it peaked in August of last year.  The COVID-19 vaccines accounted for almost all of Moderna's value, and a large percentage of Pfizer's, so both companies have a vested interest in continuing to get vaccines into the arms of patients.  However, vaccination is not the only way in which one can protect himself from COVID or even respond to the disease.  A variety of monoclonal antibody treatments, which were proven to be an effective treatment of the symptoms of COVID, had their Emergency Use Authorization revoked earlier this year.  The one-track-mind medical apparatus continues to place all its eggs in the vaccine basket — that is, in vaccines that have vastly underperformed initial promises.  One should always consult with a medical professional before deciding to get vaccinated.  However, there are plenty of other ways Americans can boost their immune health without vaccination, through better diet, exercise, and ensuring that they are not deficient in vitamins.

Psaki: Pelosi kissing Biden on cheek does not meet CDC's 'bar' of 'close contact' for COVID transmission.  White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki claimed Thursday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has tested positive for the coronavirus, kissing President Biden on the cheek and holding his hand did not meet the White House's definition of "close contact."  "How can you guys say that President Biden was not a close contact with speaker Pelosi when there's video of the speaker kissing him?" Fox News' Peter Doocy asked Psaki on Thursday [4/7/2022].  "Their definition of it is 15 minutes of contact within a set period of time, within six feet," Psaki responded, referring to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention definition of "close contact."  "It did not meet that bar."

The Editor says...
The Important People each have their own arbitrary definition of "close contact" and "social distancing."  Their malleable and flexible standards show us that they never cared about masks and six-foot spacing.  Those rules were for somebody else.

Fauci's Colleague Offered to Secretly Erase a COVID-19 Paper Containing Data Hidden By China.  Kristian Andersen — an Anthony Fauci confidant who has received research grants worth millions from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director — reportedly offered to secretly delete a research paper exposing the U.S. National Institutes of Health's erasure of a database containing information relevant to the origins of COVID-19.  Andersen, a virologist at the Scripps Research Institute, made the suggestion during a Zoom call with Fauci himself, alongside former National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director Francis Collins, and the paper's author Jesse D. Bloom.  Bloom, an evolutionary biologist, had recovered a number of early SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequences, which were erased by the NIH at the request of Chinese Communist Party researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Vaccines are traditionally expected to be effective for years, if not forever.  This stuff doesn't come with any such expectations.
Second COVID booster shot boosts infection protection for just a few weeks: study.  A fourth shot of the Pfizer COVID vaccine increased protection against viral infection for only four to seven weeks, according to a massive study published Tuesday [4/5/2022].  The study included 1.25 million people age 60 and over in Israel who received their fourth dose between January and March.  Israel only uses the Pfizer vaccine.

Dr. Fauci Says Covid Lockdowns Could be Utilized "in a Positive Way".  Dr. Fauci over the weekend had a one-on-one interview with CBS 2 New York to discuss the so-called 'risk' of easing Covid restrictions.  Fauci told CBS's Jessica Moore that lockdowns "could be utilized in a positive way."  Fauci also said forced masking will be back if Covid cases rise again.  This is why someone like Fauci, who's an unelected bureaucrat, should never have this much power.

Fully Vaxxed And Boosted Adam Schiff Tests Positive For Covid-19.  Democrat Congressman Adam Schiff (CA) on Tuesday announced he tested positive for Covid-19.  The 61-year-old lawmaker is fully vaccinated and boosted.  "This evening, I unfortunately tested positive for COVID-19," Schiff said.  "I'm feeling fine, and grateful to be vaccinated and boosted.  In the coming days, I will quarantine and follow CDC guidelines."

German guy gets 90 COVID shots to sell fake vax cards.  When various state and municipal governments started giving away money and other incentives for the vaccine-hesitant to get their shots, I raised what seemed to be an obvious question.  What would happen if desperate people, particularly the homeless, began showing up at multiple pods and getting multiple vaccinations just to cash in on the money or other rewards?  Had anyone actually studied what would happen to patients who received far more than the CDC recommended number of injections at the prescribed intervals?  We may be about to find out.  One guy in Germany was arrested after reportedly going for as many as 90 injections.  He wasn't trying to be the most immune person on the planet, however.  He was selling off the vaccination cards he was given after altering them so his customers could put in their own names.

A concerned mother who questioned NY Mayor Adams on toddler mask mandate fired from city job.  A few days ago the New York Post reported that a New York City mom, Daniela Jampel, who works for the New York City Law Department was fired from her job mere hours after she questioned Mayor Eric Adams about his decision not to unmask toddlers.  Jampel worked for the law department for years as assistant corporation counsel.  It all began when Jampel attended a press conference in the City Hall building in Lower Manhattan. [...] Jampel did not personally or physically attack the mayor, and neither did she use foul language.  She did not interrupt the Mayor's remarks.  She spoke only when questions were allowed.  Any mother overcome with concern for the wellbeing of their child will understandably be emotional and that Jampel was.  She did not profit in any way owing to her office, she did not misuse or abuse her power, and she did not reveal any confidential information.  All she did is question authority.

My Nightmare Experience With Cruel, Fascistic Covid Policies at a California Hospital.  I write the following to share my deplorable experiences at Kaweah Delta Medical Center, a hospital in Visalia, Calif., and because I'm convinced most Americans have no clue of the fascistic, cruel, and inhumane policies still being enacted in the name of "Covid-19."  My elderly mother is and has been immensely sick for quite some time.  She is also suffering from dementia, especially when she gets hospitalized.  That said, I am intentionally being vague concerning her condition, as I wouldn't want the hospital to figure out who she is and possibly "reprimand" her due to this article.  Yes, I think some of the workers there are actually capable of that.  On the other hand, I'm not overly concerned that they'll be able to identify me.  All one needs to do is look at the terrible reviews that hospital gets, most of them from people who had the very same experiences I'm about to relate, to realize that these incidents are a dime a dozen.

The CDC finds a depression epidemic among teens — that it created.  A new Centers for Disease Control study reveals how badly teens have suffered from COVID policies — that the CDC itself pushed.  Many of us have lamented the terrible damage done to younger children by school closures and mask mandates — years of learning loss that may never be made up.  Now we learn that the isolation and anxiety that accompanied school shutdowns have taken a heavy toll on adolescents.  The CDC found that more than a third of US high-school students reported poor mental health during the pandemic.

CDC to 'revamp' department as it faces eroding public trust over COVID.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Monday it plans to undergo a month-long "revamp" as it faces a credibility crisis more than two years after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a report.  CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told her staff in an email reviewed by the Washington Post that "it is time to step back and strategically position CDC to support the future of public health."  "Over the past year, I have heard from many of you that you would like to see CDC build on its rich history and modernize for the world around us," Walensky wrote.  "I am grateful for your efforts to lean into the hard work of transforming CDC for the better.  I look forward to our collective efforts to position CDC, and the public health community, for greatest success in the future."  Walensky added that she had hired an outside leader for the review who will look at the CDC's "structure, systems, and processes."

The CDC Massively Violates Its 'Pledge' To Americans — Why Should Anyone Trust It Now?  One of the five items on the CDC's "Pledge to the American People" is that it will "base all public health decisions on the highest quality scientific data that is derived openly and objectively."  Can anyone honestly say that it has lived up to this promise during the COVID outbreak?  Three recent events should make it abundantly clear that the answer is no.  First, the CDC has been caught hiding vast amounts of scientific data regarding COVID.  The New York Times, of all places, reported in late February that "For more than a year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has collected data on hospitalizations for COVID-19 in the United States and broken it down by age, race and vaccination status.  But it has not made most of the information public."  Why?  Because the data, especially data on the efficacy of vaccines, "might be misinterpreted."  Dr. Nicole Saphier, a physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering, tweeted in reaction to the news that:  "The CDC's response when questioned about their withholding of COVID data and lack of transparency is essentially 'we don't trust you to be able to understand the truth.'  The condescension is palpable."

German Man Has 90 Vax Shots to Sell Coveted 'Passports'.  A 60-year-old man allegedly had himself vaccinated against COVID-19 dozens of times in Germany in order to sell forged vaccination cards with real vaccine batch numbers to people not wanting to get vaccinated themselves.  The man from the eastern Germany city of Magdeburg, whose name was not released in line with German privacy rules, is said to have received up to 90 shots against COVID-19 at vaccination centers in the eastern state of Saxony for months until criminal police caught him this month, the German news agency dpa reported Sunday.  The suspect was not detained but is under investigation for unauthorized issuance of vaccination cards and document forgery, dpa reported.

Lee Mallinson: 51-year-old British swimming coach was "waiting for internet signal to get stronger" after Pfizer booster shot, dead four months later.  51-year-old swimming coach is dead, after mocking the non-vaccinated with regurgitated, tired aspersions.  Mr. Lee Mallinson was head swimming coach at the Reading Swimming Club. [...] Mr. Mallinson was a COVID fanatic.  He played along with every narrative, and peppered his social media profiles with free advertising for the pharmaceutical industry.  He was one of the early cheerleaders for the Novavax insect virus vector injection.

Numerous Health Problems More Likely Due to COVID-19 Vaccines Than Coincidence:  VAERS Data Analysis.  Various health problems reported by people after receiving one of the COVID-19 vaccine shots are more likely caused by the vaccines than being merely coincidental, according to an analysis of data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  VAERS has been flooded with more than a million reports of various health problems and more than 21,000 death reports since the introduction of the vaccines in late 2020. Some experts and public officials have downplayed the significance of the reports, noting that just because a health problem occurs after getting the shot, it doesn't mean it was caused by it.  A deeper analysis of the data, however, indicates that many of the adverse effects are more than just a coincidence, according to Jessica Rose, a computational biologist who's been studying the data for at least nine months.  "The safety signals being thrown off in VAERS now are off the charts across the board," she told The Epoch Times.

Do you realise how much you have been manipulated through Government Propaganda over the past Two Years?  [Scroll down]  Forced mask wearing (which has been proven time and time again to have absolutely no value in preventing the spread of infection) helps to enforce the sense of isolation and is another technique favoured by torturers and those determined to obtain control over individuals.  We all learn a great deal of information and comfort from looking at the faces around us and when masks are worn we are mentally and spiritually weakened.  A paper in the Journal of Neonatal Nursing showed how much babies suffer when deprived of the chance to see their mother's face.  Brain growth in infants is much affected by the baby's relationship with people it sees. [...] Masks and social distancing and lockdowns were introduced to create fear and to remind us that we had to do what we were told to do.  The masks, in particular, were always all about teaching us to be compliant.

Fauci's United Front Is Collapsing.  Lockdowns contradicted not only a century of public-health practice but even WHO guidelines.  Even on March 2, 2020, 850 scientists signed a letter to the White House warning against lockdowns, closures, and travel restrictions.  Within days, everything changed.  There were hints of extreme measures in the CDC pandemic planning manuals since 2006 but the idea was hardly orthodoxy in the profession.  It's also true that there were elite scientists who longed for the chance to try out the new theory of virus suppression.  But how did Fauci and Birx, to say nothing of Jared Kushner, become converts of the idea to the point that they were able to convince Trump to betray everything he believed in?  This is quite probably where the lab-leak theory comes in.  It's not so much about whether the virus was an accidental or even deliberate leak that matters so much as whether Fauci, Francis Collins, and Jeremy Farrrar of the UK's Wellcome Trust believed it was possible or even likely.  In that case, we have our motive.  Did they deploy the chaos of lockdowns as a genuine if wildly misguided attempt to suppress the virus as a way of avoiding culpability?  Or perhaps it was deployed as a kind of smokescreen to distract from a closer examination of the Wuhan's lab's funding sources?

NIH Working to Keep Taxpayers in the Dark by Stalling on Fauci Documents:  Transparency Advocate.  The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is attempting to keep money spent on things like Dr. Anthony Fauci's salary, the highest-paid U.S. government employee, hidden from members of the public, according to a transparency advocate.  "There is a multi-layered strategy, funded by taxpayers, to keep taxpayers in the dark about how NIH is spending taxpayer money," Adam Andrzejewski, CEO and founder of OpenTheBooks.com, told Epoch TV's "American Thought Leaders."  Andrzejewski's watchdog group discovered how much Fauci was getting paid and that he received a permanent pay bump in the early 2000s in part to prevent him from leaving the government.  In an effort to learn more about the top doctor, the group filed a Freedom of Information Act request on Jan. 28, 2021, asking for Fauci's job description, disclosure documents, and other papers.

5 bombshell videos on COVID-19.  A while back, I published a piece outlining Five Books You Must Read on COVID-19.  If you don't have time to read a book — or prefer podcast and video content — here are five videos that offer invaluable insights into the COVID issue. [...] [#1] The Truth Shall Set You Free — John MacArthur Sermon:  Preaching in the thick of the pandemic, John MacArthur of Grace Community Church proclaimed this timeless sermon.  He unmasks human nature and our tendency to worship the state in place of God.  Preaching from John 8, MacArthur uses Huxley's Brave New World and Orwell's 1984 as illustrations of what happens when we place our hope in worldly leaders.  [Video clip]

A World Gone Mad.  Governments everywhere, including here in the USA, have abandoned God, good government, law and order, common sense, and traditional Judeo-Christian values.  They have jumped in with both feet into the dark and shadow without bothering to look back at seeing what they have already wrought. [...] We can't leave out the absurdities of the so-called COVID pandemic.  The pandemic that has a better than 99% survival rate, with a government that did more to harm the public than the actual disease.  Wear a mask, don't wear a mask, close your business, mandate an experimental vaccine and find only those who took the vax are getting COVID.  Give shots to children with a 99.995% chance of survival, stay six feet from anyone in line at the airport, and then jam them all into the airplane.

RFK Jr.  Discusses Fauci, Vaccines and Big Pharma's Power.  [Video clip only.]

America is suffering from a gigantic loss of trust.  [Scroll down]  And for the past two years, we have been the victims of a totalitarian experiment:  the COVID emergency.  If, three years ago, someone had predicted that a two-week emergency declaration to "flatten the curve" would stretch into two full years of tyrannical government oppression, he would have been laughed out of town.  Yet it happened.  The mechanism used to gain obedience was to induce fear.  Fear works:  many people still wander around wearing placebo masks.  People have been jailed, businesses ruined, careers destroyed, life savings obliterated, children abused, and many lives lost from drug addiction, suicides and compulsory inoculation with an experimental "vaccine."  Our human skill margins have been depleted; our trust has been eroded.  All this because some unethical bureaucrats in the government gave unscrupulous politicians the excuse to impose flat-out tyranny in response to a medical emergency.  Progressives applaud.  Let's make this situation permanent, they say.

For what it's worth...
Top 7 ways to die from "COVID" without even catching the virus.  Who would have thought it's more dangerous to get vaccinated for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) than to actually catch the virus?  Who would have thought that it's more dangerous to take the medications the hospitals recommend for COVID-19 than to just let your immune system naturally beat the virus?  Some folks are doubting that COVID-19 is even a real virus, since independent scientists can't even seem to isolate SARS-CoV-2 in a laboratory.  Maybe it's all been a scam to get people medicated, vaccinated, and six feet under from all things COVID-related, when COVID-19 doesn't even really exist.  We've all seen crazier things happen, thanks to Big Pharma in America.

Judge Strikes Down NYC's Toddler Mask Mandate, City Plans Appeal.  A Staten Island judge on Friday [4/1/2022] struck down New York City's mask mandate for toddlers, calling it "arbitrary, capricious and unreasonable" and issuing a permanent injunction against it.  Mayor Eric Adams said the city would appeal and seek a stay of Judge Ralph Porzio's ruling.  Health Commissioner Dr. Ashwin Vasan said the city was not recommending that young kids ages 2-4 stop masking yet, and he sounded a broader note of caution too.  "Cases are definitively rising and it's gotten our attention," he said.  "They will continue to rise over the next few weeks, and it's likely that over these weeks, we will move into a different level of overall risk across the city."  Vasan said he was "recommending" people wear masks in public, indoor settings.

The COVID-19 Dossier incriminates Pfizer even more than you might have realized.  A dossier is a file containing detailed records and various documents relating to the affairs of a particular person or subject, and those "affairs" can be medical, criminal, or both.  The first part of the word, "dos," is French with origins in the Latin dorsum, as in the "dorsal" fin on the back of a whale.  A new dossier is being compiled as you read this, and it's 400,000 pages of documents already.  Pfizer has now admitted in writing that humans who were "vaccinated" for Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) can SHED, through skin contact with other humans, the pathogens contained in the syringes.  Look deeper and you will see that's just the tip of the iceberg, or the "back fin" of the whale, because hiding beneath the surface of the admission are MORE documents and data that reveal the Pfizer "vaccine" makes the injected people 300 percent more likely to contract the virus.  This whale of secret information is contained in the new COVID-19 Dossier that a former employee (biotech analyst) of Pfizer has provided.

How Fauci and NIH gave millions to fund Peter Daszak's 'crazy' gain-of-function research at Wuhan lab:  Proposal to help.  Further details of British researcher Peter Daszak's role in facilitating risky coronavirus research in China have been revealed in a new report, outlining how his EcoHealth Alliance raked in millions in federal grants.  Daszak's group, which bizarrely evolved from a save-the-manatees non-profit to a top champion of viral gain-of-function research as it chased federal funding, has long been at the center of questions about the origins of COVID-19.  A lengthy new report in Vanity Fair, based on dozens of interviews and more than 100,000 leaked internal documents, details how EcoHealth operated in a world of 'murky grant agreements, flimsy oversight, and the pursuit of government funds for scientific advancement, in part by pitching research of steeply escalating risk.'

Dr. Fauci silenced all Wuhan lab leak theories after being schmoozed by gain-of-function researcher Peter Daszak.  America's coronavirus tsar, Dr. Anthony Fauci, silenced any discussion about COVID being caused by a lab leak — and not through animal-to-human transmission — after helping a controversial scientist get millions in federal funding to study bats, a Vanity Fair investigation has revealed.  Analyzing more than 100,000 leaked documents, the magazine claimed that Fauci's approval of Peter Daszak helped his nonprofit, EcoHealth Alliance, an organization dedicated to shielding society from emerging infectious diseases, to develop the COVID-19 virus in a laboratory in China.  They also claim researchers associated with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, including Daszak, tried to hide evidence about the pandemic's early spread as lab leak hypotheses began to emerge.

The Pandemic's Wrongest Man, one year later.  Last April Fool's Day, the Atlantic published a piece about me called "The Pandemic's Wrongest Man."  With the benefit of time, it is more unintentionally ironic than ever.

Pfizer CEO Says Anyone Who Questions His Company's Vaccines Are 'Criminals'.  Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla actually had the balls to once again call anyone who questions the efficacy and safety of his vaccines 'criminals' even though his own company holds the record for fines, which sits in the billions of dollars, for misinformation and outright lies about their own drugs.  Remember, this is the same company that tried to get a court to block the release of their own findings on their COVID vaccines for 75 years.  This is also the same company that boasted a 95% efficacy rate when in fact, Israeli studies show 65%, then dropping to negative efficacy after 5 months.  [Video clip]

A year later, Minnesota still has billions in federal pandemic relief dollars to spend.  In the year since the federal government allocated $1.9 trillion to a pandemic stimulus package, Minnesota has used some of the cash on everything from the expected — supporting hospitals and students — to boosting participation in the Girl Scouts and providing financial aid to crime victims.  And there's more to spend.  State government has yet to decide how to use more than a third of its $2.8 billion.  Cities, towns and counties have until the end of 2026 to spend their $2.1 billion.  "It wasn't perfect, but I'm glad it got passed.  Has it kicked off our economy?  You bet it has," said Luverne Mayor Pat Baustian, who said a freezer warehouse company and hog processing facility have since moved to his city in the southwest corner of the state.

The New Authoritarians.  The TV production of Margaret Atwood's novel The Handmaid's Tale premiered on April 26, 2017, and was widely touted in liberal media outlets as a "prescient" "mirror" of the country under Trump.  Journalists warned that the United States was on the precipice of becoming a Gilead-like dystopia where human rights would be nonexistent.  Yet based on the domineering COVID-era behavior of the show's own target audience, The Handmaid's Tale appears to have been less of a warning to viewers and more of a handbook.  Forced and coercive medical procedures, adoption of mandatory new garbs, censorship, and frozen bank accounts were central to the totalitarian state depicted in the novel and the show.  In the end, this program found its real-world parallel not in autocratic moves from the right, but in liberal-approved measures like vaccine mandates, mask requirements of dubious medical value, restrictions on speech, and seizure of protesters' financial assets — all of which were vocally supported by the affluent laptop class.

Federal Judge's Opinion on Trump Reveals Judiciary's Reliance on Media Propaganda.  It's difficult to have much faith in the judicial system when individual judges appear to be gullible consumers of fake news, swallowing media accounts of events that have been widely questioned and, at least in some cases, debunked completely.  Just how gullible and uninformed even top jurists can be was seen in January at the U.S. Supreme Court, during oral arguments over the government's COVID-19 vaccine mandate affecting nearly 100 million workers.  During the arguments, the justices revealed an ignorance of the basic facts surrounding COVID that shocked onlookers — and showed that many relied upon unreliable media sources for their information.

The English Faucis are even worse than the American ones.  Most Americans have had a bellyfull of the likes of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the National Institutes for Health bureaucrat who upended society in the name of flawed or absent research in the name of conquering COVID.  It turns out he's not sui generis, or even a bug in bad system — he's just a feature.  And now we know where he gets it from.  According to an eye-opening article in National Review by Johns Hopkins professor of applied economics, Steve Hanke, and U.K. University of Durham's Professor Kevin Dowd, the Imperial College of London is kind of a Fauci cubed, based on its constant fear-mongering and bad research models.  The college, unably headed by Dr. Neil Ferguson, wields power in inverse proportion to its compentencies.

Judge Blocks COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate for Entire Navy.  The U.S. military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate has been blocked for all Navy members seeking religious exemptions.  A preliminary injunction that previously covered 35 Navy SEALs now covers some 4,000 others.  U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor, a George W. Bush appointee who entered the original ruling in January, agreed to expand it in part because all members who have applied for religious exemptions "have all been harmed in essentially the same way."  "Each is subject to the Navy's COVID-19 vaccine mandates.  Each has submitted her religious accommodation request, and none has received accommodation.  Without relief, each servicemember faces the threat of discharge and the consequences that accompany it.  Even though their personal circumstances may factually differ in small ways, the threat is the same — get the jab or lose your job," he said in a 27-page order.

Republicans release report claiming teachers unions Wrote part of the Biden administration's guidance on reopening schools.  Republicans released a report Wednesday [3/30/2022] exposing an unusually 'cozy' relationship between teachers unions and the Biden administration's COVID-19 leaders and the CDC regarding the reopening of schools during the pandemic.  An interim report from Republicans on the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis shows emails between the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).  'Millions of Americans are still outraged at what these Washington Democrats put their children through, and all because union bosses demanded they keep schools closed longer,' said Representatives Steve Scalise, Ranking Member of the Coronavirus Committee, and James Comer, who's on the Committee on Education and Labor, in a statement to Fox News.

21 states file lawsuit against federal mask mandate on transportation.  More than 20 states filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against the federal mask mandate on transportation, which has been extended until April 18, saying it violated the Constitution and violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).  The 21 states claim that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had not allowed for public comment for more than a year since the federal transportation mask mandate was first issued.  They also claimed that they were negatively impacted by the mask mandate because it required states to "expend resources to enforce the mandate" and harmed states' "sovereign interests" because many states "have laws or policies prohibiting or discouraging mask requirements in contexts where the mask mandate applies," according to court filings.

FDA, CDC Guilty of Clinical Malpractice and Scientific Fraud by Inaction and Omission on mRNA Vaccine Safety Warnings.  Today, unquestionably serious cardiovascular, thrombotic and neurologic adverse events related to the vaccine have occurred around the world.  The FDA's own vaccine adverse event tracking system (the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System or VAERS) shows substantial and serious risks from the vaccine, even though the FDA only collects an estimated 10% of all adverse events.  Still, federal agencies and manufacturers aren't officially warning the American public about these risks, despite having been privy to this information for almost a whole year.  Why?  Because it would counter the narrative that taking endless vaccines and boosters is your patriotic duty.  It's pretty clear today there are both safety and efficacy problems with vaccines and boosters.

Get ready for Covid vaccines every six months.  Millions of Britons could need Covid boosters every six months for the foreseeable future, a health boss hinted today [3/28/2022].  Dr Jenny Harries, chief executive of the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), suggested the most vulnerable 'relevant groups' in society will still need regular top-up jabs.  Britain is still in a 'period of uncertainty', she said, despite all restrictions being lifted more than a month ago.

Former News Executive Reveals the Government 'Warning' Given to Networks to Air Covid Propaganda.  The Covid pandemic response beginning in 2020 was one of the most sweeping cases of media propaganda in world history.  Governments not only lied to the masses ("15 days to slow the spread," e.g.) and made dubious claims based on poor evidence ("mask up" to end the pandemic), but it censored even civilians for doubting the mainstream narrative.  Now, a former news executive at international network Sky News, as well as a veteran of ITV, has come forward to reveal what news audiences have only previously been able to surmise:  Some news networks must have been ordered to adhere to the government's pandemic narratives or risk serious consequences (such as losing broadcasting licenses and other reprisals).  Mark Sharman revealed his disturbing insights into the astoundingly coordinated media coverage of the Covid pandemic in a sit-down interview on British channel GBN's "The Lockdown Inquiry" with host Dan Wootton.

US Government Paid News Media $1 Billion For Propaganda to Promote mRNA Vaccines.  A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by TheBlaze shows Health and Human Services spent $1 billion for a media campaign to build public confidence in, and uptake of, COVID-19 vaccines using mainstream news outlets[.]  News outlets that did respond to TheBlaze assured them the editorial staff are not influenced by advertising money, but it's not hard to imagine management would not look kindly on editorial staff who write content that doesn't align with the advertising narrative[.]  Mounting evidence demonstrates why the government is paying for good press since insurance companies reported a rise in all-cause mortality in late 2021[.]  The first batch of Pfizer documents the FDA used to approve Comirnaty (Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine) were released March 1, 2022; mRNA technology inventor Dr. Robert Malone believes these papers show a break in the indemnification clauses, exposing Pfizer to potential civil and criminal liability[.]

10 Million Pandemic Deaths [were] due to Ineffective and Unnecessary Public Health Actions.  The study covered the initial two years of the COVID pandemic, 2020 and 2021.  It estimated excess mortality from the COVID-19 pandemic in 191 countries and territories, and 252 subnational units for selected countries.  Global deaths directly attributed to COVID-19 reached 5.9 million, yet estimates put excess deaths at a staggering 18.2 million during this period.  In other words, about 12 million people probably died from causes other than COVID infection.  Something that the public health establishment should be held accountable for.

Probe finds officials miscalculated COVID-19 death toll.  One of the world's largest newspaper has conducted an investigation of Britain's official COVID-19 count, finding evidence that the scope of the pandemic and the number of deaths have been significantly miscalculated.  The Mail on Sunday reported that British health chiefs have admitted that the numbers they have fed the government are only an approximation, provoking "fury" from top officials.  And the PCR tests on which cases are based have proven to be inaccurate.  In the United States, the death figures have been complicated by the fact that the CDC has estimated that only about 6% of the recorded COVID-19 deaths were from COVID-19 only.  The other fatalities had an average of more than two comorbidities, meaning serious underlying conditions such as heart disease and diabetes.

Caution:  New York Times.
Ivermectin Does Not Reduce Risk of Covid Hospitalization, Large Study Finds.  The anti-parasitic drug ivermectin, which has surged in popularity as an alternative treatment for Covid-19 despite a lack of strong research to back it up, showed no sign of alleviating the disease, according to results of a large clinical trial published on Wednesday [3/30/2022].  The study, which compared more than 1,300 people infected with the coronavirus in Brazil who received either ivermectin or a placebo, effectively ruled out the drug as a treatment for Covid, the study's authors said.  "There's really no sign of any benefit," said Dr. David Boulware, an infectious-disease expert at the University of Minnesota.  The researchers shared a summary of these results in August during an online presentation hosted by the National Institutes of Health, but the full data set had not been published until now in The New England Journal of Medicine.

FDA authorizes fourth Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccine doses for people age 50 and older.  The top U.S. health regulators on Tuesday [3/29/2022] cleared fourth Covid vaccine doses for older adults, amid uncertainty over whether an even more contagious version of omicron will cause another wave of infections in the U.S. as it has in Europe and China.  The FDA authorized Pfizer and Moderna fourth doses for everyone age 50 and older, as well as a fifth dose for certain younger people with compromised immune systems.  People age 12 and older with weakened immune systems are eligible for a Pfizer fifth dose, and those 18 and older with the same condition are eligible for Moderna.

A Pharma Giant Imposed 'Follow the Mandate' on Vaccine Objectors.  They Are Now Ex-Workers.  Mandy Van Gorp was confident that her employer of 18 years, Eli Lilly and Company, would treat her fairly when she objected to its company-wide COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  The pharmaceutical giant had promised to exempt employees with valid health or religious objections to the policy and she believed she had had both.  Despite presenting a doctor's note in support of her exemption, citing an auto-immune disease, the company denied her request for a medical exemption.  To add injury to the insult she felt, she tested positive for COVID-19 the day after receiving her rejection letter.  She then appealed for a six-month deferral on grounds of the positive test.  Lilly also denied that request.  When she then raised her religious concerns, Lilly said she had missed the application deadline — a deadline that had lapsed several weeks before Lilly replied to her initial accommodation request.

Watchdog sues feds over COVID vaccine's 'adverse events' reports.  It's possible that some of the worst horrors of the Chinese COVID-19 pandemic that has killed millions around the world have come from the side effects of the vaccinations, which sometimes have been forced on unwilling recipients by private companies or government bureaucrats.  WND reported just this week a coroner in England ruled that a 34-year-old mother died of a "catastrophic" bleed on her brain, caused by a COVID-19 shot.  Eight days after receiving an AstraZeneca shot, Kim Lockwood complained of an excruciating headache.  About 17 hours after arriving at Rotherham Hospital in South Yorkshire, she was pronounced dead, BBC News reported.  And WND reported last week data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show the Millennial generation suffered a "Vietnam War event," with more than 61,000 excess deaths in that age group over the past year, according to an analysis by a former Wall Street executive and a Wall Street insurance expert.

Only 3% Think COVID is the Most Important Problem Facing America.  Another data point for the preference cascade.  In Jan, 20% of Americans thought COVID was the most important problem facing Americans, in Feb it was 13%, and in March, it's down to 3%.  Tied with health care and lack of energy sources.  Inflation has gone from 8% to 10% to 17%.  The economy is at 11%.  Gas prices are at 4%.

Young, sudden post-injection deaths continue.  Once upon a time in the United States, like two years, when little kids died in their sleep for no apparent reason, it was national news.  But today it's just normal and glossed over by cable and network news.  Thanks Ukraine.  Logan Gagnier was a normal, healthy 9-year-old boy from Eagle Mountain, Utah.  He loved Oreo cookies, Doritos, BYU football and Utah Jazz basketball.  He played football and basketball himself.  Logan was hanging out with his grandparents on Friday, March 11. He returned home and went to sleep later that night.  The next morning, Saturday, March 12, the family was worried when he was very late to wake up and emerge from his room.  Logan's older sister went to check on him, only to find him unresponsive in his bed.  He had been dead for hours, according to his father, Garth Gagnier.

Three enough?  Six too many?
How many COVID booster shots will finally be enough?  From the beginning of the COVID pandemic starting two years ago, we have heard conflicting and often nonsensical recommendations from those charged with knowing better and leading the country through the biggest public health crisis that most of us have ever experienced.  From "15 days to slow the spread" to mask mandates changing as fast as the weather, reality and science was whatever those in power declared it to be on any given day.  First, we were told that masks were worthless in stopping viruses.  Shortly thereafter we were told to wear one, then two, then one, now back to none.  Masks are unnecessary in a crowded mall, restaurant, or BLM protest, but life-saving in an elementary school, airport, or airplane which is constantly recirculating and disinfecting the air.  Similarly, the vaccines, we were told, would stop transmission and infection with COVID until we learned that they did neither, only reducing the severity of illness and risk of death.  In the U.K. for example, last month 80-90 percent of COVID deaths were among the vaccinated, although the "fact checkers" are eager to claim "misinterpretation" or "lack of context."

Newly Released Pfizer Documents Reveal COVID Jab Dangers.  A small batch of documents released by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in mid-November 2021 revealed that in the first three months of the COVID jab rollout, Pfizer received 42,086 adverse event reports that included 1,223 deaths[.]  The first really large tranche of Pfizer documents — some 10,000 pages — was released by the FDA March 1, 2022.  Included are nine pages of recorded side effects, about 158,000 different health problems in all[.]  An initial review of case report forms (CRFs) reveal significant data collection errors and anomalies[.]  Problems included patients entered into the "healthy population" group who were far from healthy; serious adverse event (SAE) numbers that were left blank; sample barcodes that were missing; at least one death of a patient the day before being listed as being at a medical checkup; and second doses that were administered outside the three-week protocol window.  There also are questions as to whether participants were properly observed for an adequate amount of time; plus adverse events were listed as "not serious" despite extended hospital stay and much more[.]

Of Boiling and Jumping Frogs.  Despotic politicians who also abhor the fuss of public unrest have long noted the application of this apologue to human affairs.  In early March 2020, if Anthony Fauci had said that we were about to shut down the economy for two years, force people to wear paper masks, "socially distance," and forcibly prevent people from going to church, or visiting their dying friends and relatives, there might well have been a revolt.  But that isn't how it happened.  Fauci and the health police got everything they wanted, they destroyed thousands of middle-class businesses, enriched the entitled class, and, more generally, made fools and peons of us all.  But they did it slowly.  "Two weeks to flatten the curve."  Remember that?  Remember when, early on, Fauci said that it would be fine for young, healthy people to go on a cruise?  Remember when he pooh-poohed the effectiveness of masks?  Whatever else they demonstrated, the regime's COVID policies, and the public's response to those policies, showed that entire populations could be herded and shorn like sheep.  All you needed was a public health pretext — not a genuine emergency, mind you, just a pretext — and battalions of aspiring Gauleiters willing to enforce the rules and, bang, instant and prolonged hysteria.

Aspirin Appeared to Help Against Moderate COVID-19: Study.  Patients with moderate COVID-19 appeared to benefit from early administration of aspirin, according to a new study.  Patients who were given aspirin on their first day in the hospital were less likely to die or experience blood clotting, researchers found.  Dr. Jonathan Chow with the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences and other researchers analyzed data from 64 healthcare systems for the study.  Moderate COVID-19 was defined as not needing intensive care such as mechanical ventilation of oxygenation.  Out of 112,269 patients with moderate COVID-19, approximately 15,200 received aspirin on the first day of admission.  The median duration of aspirin administration was five days.

Quarantine Slaughterhouse:  Numbers Are Coming in on Non-COVID Deaths During Lockdowns.  In the rush to mitigate the spread of the COVID virus, public health policy could have best been described as a lot of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.  This was understandable and forgivable in the early stages of the pandemic when officials didn't have any idea about what they were dealing with.  As the pandemic wore on, however, it became more about exercising power than saving lives.  Take school shutdowns, for example.  Teachers' unions fought tooth and nail to keep schools closed, acting as if they were on the front lines in the battle of Fallujah and in mortal peril.  The consequences for the kids were never taken into account.  We're just beginning to find out about some of the damage that was done.  There is no way that the post mortem news on this subject is going to get any better.

The pandemic city exodus revealed:  New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago lost the most residents.  New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and other large cities lost the most residents during the pandemic city exodus last year as about 75 percent of U.S. counties experienced a loss in population, according to a new report from the U.S. Census Bureau.  The agency revealed on Thursday [3/24/2022] that American's fled metropolitan areas between April 2020 to July 2021 in favor of the South West, with Dallas, Houston, Austin and Phoenix among those to see the largest growth last year.  The Census Bureau said:  'In 2021, fewer births, an aging population and increased mortality — intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic — contributed to a rise in natural [population] decrease' across the country,' but particular hitting big cities the hardest.'

The Editor says...
Covid is the all-purpose fig leaf for other problems created by socialist Democrats.  All four of the cities named in the headline above are Democrat-controlled cities where violent homeless people roam the streets, mobs of looters do whatever they want because leftist prosecutors don't want to incarcerate blacks, and taxes are sky-high.  Covid has little or nothing to do with this mass exodus.

Long COVID Defines A Long Pandemic.  Huge numbers of people who survived initial COVID infection are plagued with many health problems greatly reducing their quality of life.  These are now well known as long COVID victims.  Despite lives severely impacted, they have been receiving very little help from the medical establishment.  And a major article in The Washington Post documented that working age long COVID victims unable to work at their jobs have had little success in getting benefits from insurance companies and government agencies.  So, in addition to serious health problems many face economic disaster[.]

The COVID Hall of Shame — So Far.  Let us not declare an end to societal disruption by governmental decree justified by COVID-19.  Who can know what the CCP, CDC, WHO, or DNC (all looking so similar recently) will unleash upon us tomorrow?  If it's in their interest to wreak havoc, they will try — and may succeed. [...] When some enterprising soul discovers an existing treatment for a new health threat, he or she usually becomes an overnight hero, especially when the treatment is safe, cheap, and widely available.  When President Trump spoke of the promise of hydroxychloroquine for treating COVID-19, the national media scoffed, because they considered Trump an ignoramus.  When physicians who had prescribed hydroxychloroquine safely to prevent and treat malaria and chronic diseases for six decades championed its off-label use to treat a potentially fatal malady for which no other treatment existed, they were ostracized, and their medical licenses threatened.  The hapless Neil Cavuto declared on Fox News:  "this stuff will kill you."  He couldn't have been more wrong.  I know a medical professional who contracted COVID early on.  She told me the hydroxychloroquine she took regularly for another illness saved her life.  The drug proved effective in multiple studies when given early in the course of the disease, but its use was never adopted.  Many died needlessly as a result.

Uncovering the Corona Narrative.  The current situation we find ourselves in is unique in the history of mankind.  Never before has the whole world been thrown under the rule of this type of coercive regime as now in our time, and never have so many measures been taken which at first glance appear so unintelligible, partly so nonsensical, and in many cases so contradictory.  Officially, this is about the most serious health crisis in living memory, but the measures being used against this have not improved the situation but continuously made things worse.  Every doctor today can confirm the health condition of people, the majority of people, is worse than before the crisis, and even from the point of view of those who ordered the measures we are faced with a shamble.  The allegedly threatening 4th wave, and the announcement of the need for 3rd, 4th and 5th vaccinations, show that the purpose of the measures up to now, namely preventing the illness, has failed completely.  But that is not all by far.  As a consequence of the lockdowns up to now, we have a severe global economic crisis to manage.  Worldwide production hangs in complete disarray.  Global logistics is on the floor, supply chains are broken, harvests are being lost, food supply bottlenecks, and on top of this a scarcity for a large part of the economy of essential semi-conductors.  But also, in this we are seeing the problems are not being addressed and solved, but multiplied and magnified, via the application of further measures, and the constant threats of new restrictions.  The most recent example, in China, a port freight terminal, the 3rd largest in the world, has been closed down due to a single positive test from a worker there.  Or, take New Zealand, where in all seriousness during the last week, 5 million people were put in lockdown for 3 days, because a single 58-year-old had a positive test.

End the Mask Mandates — Now.  British airlines, our own airline pilots, Republican lawmakers and anyone with common sense knows mask mandates on planes are worthless — so why do the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention refuse to "follow the science"?  Last week, the Transportation Security Administration became essentially the last holdout in extending a mask mandate on airplanes and in airports (along with other transportation hubs), as enforcement of the CDC transportation mask mandate.  The Texas Public Policy Foundation has sued over that mandate, pointing out that it's an unconstitutional power-grab, far beyond the powers granted to the CDC by Congress.  It's time for the federal government to be stripped of the nondelegated, unauthorized powers it seized during the COVID-19 pandemic.  British airlines have gotten the message.

Biden Tells Congress More Funds Needed for Another Booster Shot.  The U.S. Congress authorized spending $9 billion on funding an initial two-shot vaccine and a booster shot for all Americans.  But now, as the pharmaceutical companies are telling Congress that another booster will be needed, the administration is pleading poverty.  "We do have sufficient current inventory of vaccines, both at states and pharmacies and other access points around the country and in our central inventory for fourth doses if they're called for this spring for our most vulnerable, including seniors," Biden COVID-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients said.

Dem Offices on Cap Hill Remain Closed After Biden's Call for Return to Normalcy.  Less than a week after President Joe Biden in his State of the Union address called for Americans to return to the office after two years of COVID-19 restrictions, numerous Democratic offices in both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives have failed to end their work-from-home policies.  A Washington Free Beacon investigation after Biden's speech found that many Democratic offices completely closed and unstaffed, with several displaying signs that they were not returning to work due to COVID-19. Included among the shuttered offices was none other than that of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.). In the middle of the workday his front desk was unstaffed, and there was nobody in sight.  His office did not respond to a request for comment about when its teleworking policy would end.

There is no emergency, and there is no demand for this product.  Children under six need this "vaccine" less than anybody else.
Moderna to Seek Emergency Covid Vaccine Authorization for Children Under Six.  Moderna will seek emergency authorization for its Covid-19 vaccine in children under six, the company announced Wednesday, meaning that this age demographic will likely soon be eligible for the shot.  The pharmaceutical company's U.S. and Canadian clinical trial produced promising results, namely that two low doses provided a "robust" immune response in young kids and are safe to be administered, the company said.

Most Americans are moving on from COVID.  Progressive elites aren't.  The chaotic news cycle in Ukraine has overshadowed a significant development domestically — the drastic shift in public opinion on Covid-19 precautions.  "Two years after the start of the pandemic, the nation is ready to move on," Axios reported last week.  "64% of survey respondents now favor federal, state and local governments lifting all COVID-19 restrictions, up 20 percentage points since early February."

Please do not ask for an exemption if you are not a celebrity.
NYC Mayor Announces Vaccine-Mandate Exemption for Professional Athletes, Performers.  Newly elected Mayor Eric Adams declared a special carve-out to New York City's employer vaccine mandate Thursday [3/24/2022] for professional athletes and performers, allowing unvaccinated athletes like Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving back onto his home court.  Adams announced the decision at a press conference at Citi Field this morning.  "Today I signed an emergency executive order expanding the performance exemption to the private employer vaccine mandate," he said.

'Catastrophic' bleed:  Coroner concludes 34-year-old mom died of COVID vaccine.  A coroner in England has concluded that a 34-year-old mother died from a "catastrophic" bleed on the brain caused by a COVID-19 vaccine.  Eight days after receiving an AstraZeneca shot, Kim Lockwood complained of an excruciating headache.  About 17 hours after arriving at Rotherham Hospital in South Yorkshire, she was pronounced dead, BBC News reported.  She died one year ago, in March 2021, but the coroner said little was known at the time of her death about the link between the COVID-19 vaccine and the condition Lockwood suffered, Vaccine-Induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia, or VITT.  The coroner, Nicola Mundy, said that because of "medical advances," the condition is better-recognized since the initial vaccine rollout.

Young associate medical director — the "Dr. Fauci" of Louisville, Kentucky — dies suddenly and unexpectedly.  The medical community in Louisville, Kentucky was shocked to find out that one of their own, Dr. SarahBeth Hartlage, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on March 17.  The medical community and the media refuse to ask questions about her death.  Why did the lockdown-loving, mask-wearing, triple-vaxxed doctor not survive the "winter of death" that was supposed to plague the unvaccinated?  Why did the young, fully boosted medical doctor suddenly die without reason?  Instead, the community used her death to promote the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines.  "We are stunned and deeply saddened by the sudden and unexpected passing of Dr. SarahBeth Hartlage," said Dr. Sarah Moyer, Department of Public Health and Wellness director.  "As a result of her leadership, knowledge and planning, thousands of our Louisville residents received life-saving COVID-19 vaccines."

CDC: Due to a 'Coding Error,' We Massively Over-Counted COVID Deaths Among Children.  [W]e are just beginning to quantify the ongoing damage done by COVID, as well as the harm inflicted by related lockdowns and restrictions.  Children and students were particularly hard-hit by the latter phenomenon, as they were overwhelmingly safe from severe outcomes from Coronavirus infections — yet had their learning, development and overall wellbeing aggressively stunted by terrible government policies in many parts of the country.  We also know that drug overdoses surged overall, and youth suicide attempts increased, during this stressful period featuring a great deal of social isolation.  Another contributing factor to the "excess deaths" phenomenon (the biggest of which was COVID itself) was deaths linked to alcohol abuse. [...] Delayed treatment on other fronts (due to COVID restrictions or concerns) has also contributed to deaths and serious illness.

'It Makes No Sense': American, United, Delta, Southwest Airline CEOs Demand Biden Drops Mask Mandate.  The CEOs of several major airline and logistics companies issued a joint statement Wednesday asking the Biden administration to end federal mask mandates.  Noting how "much has changed" since Covid measures were implemented, the CEOs argued that, given the high rate of vaccination and declining infection and death rates, the administration should consider dropping the mask rule.  "Now is the time for the Administration to sunset federal transportation travel restrictions — including the international pre-departure testing requirement and the federal mask mandate — that are no longer aligned with the realities of the current epidemiological environment," the corporate execs wrote in a letter disseminated by the Airlines for America trade association.

Airline CEOs Send King Biden a Letter Asking Him To Remove Useless Mask Mandates.  On Wednesday [3/23/2022], the CEOs of American Airlines, Delta Airlines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and other major carriers sent a letter to Joe Biden urging him to end federal mask mandates on airplanes as well as international pre-departure testing requirements.  Citing scientific data, the airlines implore Biden to lift the travel restrictions on airlines so the US travel and tourism sectors no longer needlessly struggle.  In the letter, the CEOs explain that they have followed all instructions regarding Covid-19 policies thus far, but request that now their companies are able to follow the scientific evidence and data that show we are no longer in a severe state of this pandemic.

Ukraine and the RINO Delusion.  [Scroll down]  In retrospect, the administration's desperate attempt to shift the narrative clearly began on January 6, when U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman ordered the accelerated release of an estimated 450,000 pages of Pfizer documents regarding the COVID vaccine trials they had conducted prior to preliminary FDA emergency use authorization of the vaccine in December 2020.  Soon after, attorney Thomas Renz dropped a bombshell in congressional testimony that was completely ignored by the corporate media:  Data sets recently provided to him by three Department of Defense whistleblowers showed astronomical increases in serious heart issues, nervous system disorders, cancers, infertility, and other grave health issues among military personnel (who are subject to strict vaccine mandates) in 2021 when compared to the average for the five previous years.  When Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) followed up with a formal inquiry to the Defense Department, the Pentagon rescinded the data and claimed that the apparent spikes in serious health issues were due to clerical errors.  Simultaneous with these ominous developments, Dr. Anthony Fauci, omnipresent in all the major media outlets for the last two years as official mouthpiece on all things COVID, began withdrawing from public view.

Airline CEOs Call on Biden to Lift Mask Mandate, Covid-Test Requirement for Air Travel.  The Biden administration should lift its mask mandate and Covid-testing requirements for air travelers, ten CEOs of U.S. passenger and cargo airlines said in a letter released on Wednesday [3/23/2022].  The administration currently requires travelers flying into the U.S. from abroad to present a negative Covid test prior to takeoff.  Additionally, the Transportation Security Administration extended a mask mandate for all public transportation, including air travel, on March 18.  The mask mandate is set to expire on April 18.


44 Studies on Vaccine Efficacy That Raise Doubts on Vaccine Mandates.  As some people have now been vaccinated for more than half a year, evidence is pouring in about Covid vaccine efficacy.  When evaluating vaccine efficacy, it is important to distinguish between efficacy against infection, symptomatic disease, and transmission versus efficacy against hospitalization and death.  For infection and symptomatic disease, the COVID-19 vaccines are not as efficacious as hoped, with immunity gradually waning after a few months.  For hospitalization and death, immunity is stronger, lasting for at least six months.  The gestalt of the findings implies that the infection explosion globally that we have been experiencing — post double vaccination in e.g.  Israel, UK, United States, etc. — may be due to the vaccinated spreading Covid as much or more than the unvaccinated.

Jill Biden Invites Lawmakers' Spouses To White House, Tells Unvaxxed They Can't Eat Or Drink, Congressman's Wife Says.  First Lady Jill Biden has invited a bunch of congressional spouses for a social event at the White House, which features some of the best food anyone could ever eat.  But anyone who's unvaccinated won't get a bite, according to a new report.  "Erika Donalds, wife to freshman Florida Congressman Byron Donalds, a pro-Trump, staunchly conservative Republican, tweeted a screenshot of the first lady's COVID-19 guidelines for the event, and they're even more arbitrary and discriminatory than you might expect," Western Journal reported.  "First Lady Jill Biden was kind enough to invite me & the other Congressional spouses to a reception at the White House," she wrote on Twitter.  "I just have to take a COVID test, & as an unvaccinated person (with natural immunity) I won't be allowed to eat, drink, or talk to anyone.  Should be a blast!"

I smell astroturf.
Seattle students walk out of school, demand mask mandates be reinstated.  More than 100 Seattle Public Schools students walked out of class Monday morning to protest the district's decision to end the requirement that students and staff wear masks.  Many of those students rallied at district headquarters, the John Stanford Center, to ask Superintendent Brent Jones to reinstate the mask mandate districtwide.  Mask requirements for Seattle and most other districts in the state ended a week ago.  "It's absolutely maddening we have to take time away from our education to fight for safety and health," said Marigold Wong, a sophomore at Franklin High School.

More Americans 65 and Under Died from Alcohol-Related Causes Than Covid-19 in 2020, Study Finds.  Alcohol-related deaths increased 25 percent from 2019 to 2020, with alcohol-related deaths among adults younger than 65 outnumbering deaths from Covid-19 in the same age group in 2020, a new study found.  Alcohol-related deaths, including from liver disease and accidents, increased to 99,017 in 2020, up from 78,927 the year prior, according to the study performed by researchers with the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, a division of the National Institutes of Health.

The Island of Dr. Fauci.  Going into the November midterms, we learn that the Republicans enjoy a double-digit generic ballot lead over the Democrats thanks to the concatenating failures of arguably the worst administration ever to preside over the nation. [...] Despite living off the viscid meld of lies, jobbery, slander, censorship, and corruption, both the Democrat party and its cortege of patrons and apologists are uniquely adept at insidious reasoning and political calculation.  Not only will they never allow a crisis to go to waste — a phrase used positively by Winston Churchill and pejoratively by Rahm Emanuel — the party and its retinue know how to manufacture a crisis in the first place to foster their radically subversive aims.  Never let a non-crisis remain an empty category.

COVID Proves Politicizing Everything Breaks Everything.  Let's set aside the question of whether the public should blame the president for each of the COVID deaths.  Let's also set aside the thorny question of whether that count includes dubious cases in which the victim died "with" COVID as opposed to "from" COVID. Neither of those concerns obscure a conclusion so obvious that even the Left cannot use its fallback, "Russian disinformation!" dodge.  While Democrats and "health officials" united to impose vaccine mandates, mask mandates, and numerous restrictions, nothing stopped the pandemic from getting worse.  Everything got worse even after we did everything the Left wanted.  This taps a common thread that passes through so much of the Left's agenda.  As the Left hypes an emotional response to a problem, the rush to action skips over a fundamental question that should precede any mandate or expenditure of public funds:  Does the proposed solution work?

The correlation between vaccines and the Ukraine-Russia war.  [Scroll down]  The new Democrats — the people on college campuses like Obama's friends Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn — were not anti-communist.  They were very pro-communist.  They opposed the Vietnam War for two reasons:  (1) As products of American academia they supported the Viet Cong; and (2) also as products of American academia, they opposed anything that would benefit what they were already viewing as an evil, imperialist, racist, sexist nation that did not deserve support. [...] And then, along came Trump and COVID.  The anti-war protesters from the 1960s and the 2000s despised Trump more than any other human being, ever ("worse than Hitler").  Additionally, the young'uns had absorbed the concentrated America-hatred of two to three generations of leftist academics.  They embraced COVID, not just because they're fearful people, but because they saw it as an opportunity to destroy Trump.  They also quickly realized that COVID was giving them the political and social power they'd always dreamed of so that they could break down and remake America.

Something Very Suspicious Is Happening With China's Latest COVID Reporting.  China reported two COVID-19 deaths on Saturday — the first COVID-related deaths they've reported in over a year.  "China, which reported 3,844 new COVID-19 cases Saturday, reinstated safety measures last week to curb the spread of the virus," reports The Hill.  "The country urged residents not to leave Beijing and shut down schools in Shanghai.  Most of the new cases have been located in [the province of] Jilin."  China, which gave the world the COVID-19 virus, allegedly has a "zero tolerance" policy for identifying and isolating positive COVID cases and has mass testing throughout the country.  This strategy, they say, has prevented China from having higher death rates as has been seen in other countries.  The last time China recorded a COVID death was January 2021, and if you really believe China's numbers, then you're not a serious person.

Fauci Comparison of Great Barrington Declaration Authors to AIDS Deniers 'Utterly Shocking:' Bhattacharya.  Dr. Anthony Fauci's comparison of Great Barrington Declaration authors and signatories to "AIDS denialism" was "utterly shocking," one of the authors says.  "In no way have I or any of the signers of the Great Barrington Declaration denied COVID.  COVID is a deadly disease.  It's killed millions.  It in particular is a danger to older populations," Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, an epidemiology professor at the University of Stanford, told EpochTV's American Thought Leaders program.  The premise of the declaration is that COVID-19 presents a danger to some people, Bhattacharya and Martin Kulldorff, another author, told The Epoch Times.  "The reason that we proposed focused protection in the Great Barrington Declaration is because we take COVID very seriously and that there needed to be much better protection of older, high-risk people," Kulldorff said.  But "we protected the younger members of the laptop class who were terrified of the COVID when they shouldn't have been because the risk was very, very small.  At the same time, we didn't protect older working-class people" like bus drivers.

Psaki repeats debunked claim Biden admin inherited 'no real plan' on vaccine rollout.  White House press secretary Jen Psaki repeated a debunked claim Thursday that the Biden administration inherited "no real plan" from the Trump administration for vaccinating Americans against COVID-19.  "When we came into this administration, I would remind you, it's now a long time ago, there was no real plan," Psaki said during her daily briefing.  "We were left no plan by our predecessors.["] [...] Dr. Anthony Fauci previously debunked claims that the Biden administration started from scratch on its vaccine rollout.  Speaking from the White House podium alongside Psaki the day after President Biden's inauguration, Fauci told reporters, "We certainly are not starting from scratch because there is activity going on in the distribution," adding that the Biden administration was "taking what's gone on" under Trump and "amplifying it in a big way."

Forbes Removes Contributor After 'Numerous' Articles About Fauci.  Forbes has cut off its association with a prolific contributor after he wrote a number of articles about Dr. Anthony Fauci.  Forbes recently removed Adam Andrzejewski, founder and CEO of OpenTheBooks.com, as a contributor.  Prior to the action, Andrzejewski had multiple stories on information that he and his group obtained regarding Fauci's financial situation.  Fauci, the longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, is the highest-compensated federal employee, one article revealed.  Another detailed how difficult it was to obtain certain details on Fauci's job and finances.  A third outlined aspects of disclosures released to Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.).  Shortly after the last article, Caroline Howard, an executive editor at Forbes, wrote to Andrzejewski about his choice of topics.  "I see this is your third article on Fauci in 3 weeks.  Huh," Howard wrote, according to a copy of the email published by Andrzejewski.

Dr. McCullough:  The Authorities Pushing the COVID Vaccines Have Broken the Law.  "We have laws that say that for any biological product, it must be presented in fair balance.  There must be risks and benefits.  No one can bark a command, "Get vaccinated'... Our president of the United States has broken the law."  [Video clip]

Dr. Collins Blindsided by First Questions on 'Takedown' Email.  Dr. Francis Collins, a former top U.S. health official, was caught off-guard when he was asked for the first time about a report issued by members of Congress that revealed new information, including the email Collins sent urging a "takedown" of the Great Barrington Declaration, according to an email obtained by The Epoch Times.  Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) until Dec. 19, 2021, called for a "quick and devastating published takedown" of the declaration, which called for a more balanced approach to combating the COVID-19 pandemic, in an email in October 2020.  The email, sent just days after the document was authored by three epidemiologists, was made public by a congressional panel near the end of 2021.  In an appearance on Fox News just hours after the panel's report was released, Collins was confronted about the email for the first time.  Host Neil Cavuto asked Collins about the report's claims that the White House under President Donald Trump made attempts to "undermine the COVID response."

Bayer Executive Says mRNA Vaccines are Gene Therapy.  A speech made last year by a Bayer executive mentioning that messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines are gene therapy is gaining traction on social media for the second time since it was initially posted online in October 2021.  Stefan Oelrich, a member of the Board of Management of Bayer and head of the Pharmaceuticals Division, gave a speech at the World Health Summit focused on biotechnological innovation.  He said his company is "really taking that leap ... in cell and gene therapy."  "Ultimately, the mRNA vaccines are an example for that cell and gene therapy," Oelrich said at the event's opening in Berlin.  "I always like to say, if we had surveyed two years ago in the public — 'would you be willing to take gene or cell therapy and inject it into your body?' — we probably would have had a 95 percent refusal rate," he added.  The pandemic has given the pharmaceutical industry innovation opportunities that may have not been possible before, Oelrich said.

Woman Died of Rare Brain Bleed After Getting COVID-19 Vaccine:  Coroner.  A coroner in the United Kingdom has determined that a woman died from a side effect caused by the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.  The woman was identified as 34-year-old Kim Lockwood, who had complained of a headache eight days after taking the shot in March of 2021, South Yorkshire Coroner Nicola Mundy told the BBC in a statement on March 16.  The coroner said her condition quickly deteriorated, and she was pronounced dead 17 hours after being admitted to the hospital, eight days after getting the shot.

The World Is Suffering From Mass Delusional Psychosis.  A number of mental health experts have expressed concern over the blatant fear and panic mongering during the COVID-19 pandemic, warning about potential — and let's face it, likely — psychiatric effects.  In a December 22, 2020, article in Evie Magazine, S.G. Cheah discusses what may in fact be the real problem at hand:  mass insanity caused by "delusional fear of COVID-19."  Cheah refers to lectures and articles by psychiatrist and medical legal expert Dr. Mark McDonald, who believes "the true public health crisis lies in the widespread fear which morphed and evolved into a form of mass delusional psychosis."  Cheah goes on to review a number of irrational behaviors that have become all too commonplace, such as parents being kicked off planes because their young children refuse to wear a mask during the flight, or people having hysterical meltdowns when they see a person not wearing a mask.  The science is quite clear about the risk posed by asymptomatic individuals, meaning anyone who feels perfectly healthy yet may have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 with a PCR test set to an excessively high cycle threshold.  They pose an exceptionally low risk to others, if any risk at all.  Science is even clearer on healthy individuals who test negative for SARS-CoV-2.  You simply cannot spread a virus you do not have.

The Medical Establishment's Willful Blindness About Vaccines and Children.  In my email on March 19, a Medscape "Perspective" post by William G. Wilkoff, MD titled "Waiting for the Under-5 COVID-19 Vaccine" caught my attention.  He opens by noting that "Pfizer and BioNTech announced that they were delaying the application for their COVID-19 vaccine for children under the age of 5."  He goes on to say that "earlier evidence suggests that two doses may not provide adequate protection in the 2- to 4-year old age group."  Wilkoff might be forgiven for not knowing that the FDA and CDC have carefully avoided allowing facts to escape their lairs but the English NHS data should have been somewhere in his knowledge base.  And that data has consistently shown that, under the age of 55, the risk of death from COVID is statistically indistinguishable from zero.  In plain English, it says that a child's chance of dying from COVID is about the same as expiring from a rattlesnake bite in Antarctica.

New Hampshire [will] Become [the] First State to Allow Ivermectin Without [a] Prescription.  The antiparasitic drug, lambasted by liberal disinformation machines as "horse dewormer" is finally getting easy access.  This allows individuals whose elitist doctors will not prescribe it to make important medical choices on their own. [...] 79 countries have approved the use of Ivermectin over the counter, and now NH is the first — but likely not the last — state to begin to do so as well.  This Republican-led initiative passed through NH's house on a vote of 183-159, with the majority of Democrats still clinging to old misinformation about the medication.

Fauci: We Have to Be Prepared to Reinstitute Some Restrictions for COVID Variants.  National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday on ABC's "This Week" that new variants of COVID could cause America to reinstitute some restrictions.  Discussing the new BA.2 variant of COVID, Fauci said, "It has a degree of transmission advantage over the original Omicron.  Not a multi-fold advantage.  It's about 50 to 60% or so more transmissible.  It means over time.  It might take over as the dominant variant.  Throughout the world, it's about 80 plus percent, 85% of the isolate.  In the United States, it's still around 30%."

Dr. Anthony Fauci Considers Resigning From Federal Government Before He Can Be Fired.  National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci is considering resignation from his long-held post with the federal government.  Fauci is publicly claiming that he might leave because the pandemic, now that the midterm elections are on the horizon, has been declared over. [...] Fauci is hinting at retirement as Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) works to have him fired after righteously dragging Fauci's name through the mud in many public hearings.  "We've learned a lot over the past two years, but one lesson in particular is that no one person should be deemed "dictator-in-chief."  No one person should have unilateral authority to make decisions for millions of Americans," said Dr. Paul in a press release.

Yet another flip-flop:
Dr Fauci, 81, backtracks on hints that he's thinking of retiring.  Dr Anthony Fauci has rowed back on hints that he will soon retire, with 81 year-old saying he thinks the COVID pandemic is still far from over.  Speaking a day after he'd said 'I can't stay in this job forever,' Fauci appeared determined to stay when asked on ABC's This Week if he really was thinking of quitting.  He answered: 'I'm not so sure, George,' the director of the National Health Institute told anchor George Stephonaupolous.  'I want to make sure we're really out of this before I really seriously consider doing anything different.  We're still in this.'

Fauci, ex-NIH chief Collins likened to 'African presidents' for life at science censorship forum.  The average American was unlikely to see mainstream scientists challenging COVID-19 conventional wisdom outside of Fox News until recent months, when New York Times columnist David Leonhardt started shifting the Overton Window for elite discourse on pandemic policy.  That troubles the three dozen scientists, academics and journalists who gathered in D.C. last week to discuss censorship in science and ways to push back, perhaps through alternative institutions such as the nascent University of Austin.  President Trump's former COVID advisor Scott Atlas cohosted the "quasi-kickoff" of Hillsdale College's Academy for Science and Freedom, which he called a "seed" to be followed by larger meetings and smaller working groups.  Also hosting were Great Barrington Declaration coauthors Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford Medicine and Martin Kulldorff, formerly of Harvard Medical School, who are founding fellows with Atlas.

Biden's Choleric New COVID Czar.  The White House has announced that Dr. Ashish K. Jha will soon replace Jeffrey Zients as the Biden administration's coronavirus response coordinator.  The good news is that Jha, unlike Zients, is an actual physician.  The bad news is that, since the advent of COVID-19, his public statements concerning the pandemic have been tainted by partisan politics and malicious ad hominem attacks on any heretic who dares to question establishment coronavirus orthodoxy.  Dr. Jha once appeared on The View, for example, to accuse Stanford University's Dr. Scott W. Atlas of spreading unspecified "misinformation" during the latter's brief tenure as advisor to then-President Trump.  Anyone reluctant to believe this cheap shot was more about politics than public health should consider that Jha also pronounced Trump rallies dangerous, yet insisted that BLM riots were not.

Ri-i-i-ight.
CDC Says It Accidentally Inflated Children's COVID Death Numbers In 'Coding Logic Error'.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revised its data this week to reduce pediatric deaths from COVID-19 by nearly 24%.  On Tuesday [3/15/2022], the agency was reporting on its COVID Data Tracker that 1,755 Americans under age 18 had died from the virus since the pandemic began in spring 2020. Now, it is reporting 1,341 deaths in that category.  [Tweet]  The CDC said the number was revised March 15 due to a "coding logic error," according to a footnote on the agency's COVID Data Tracker.  Pediatric death counts were not the only ones to be lowered — total deaths were reduced by roughly 70,000. [...] According to the CDC's weekly provisional data, only 921 children have died for reasons "involving COVID-19," an even lower number than the official data tracker now presents.

The CDC's Credibility Takes Another Blow After Another 'Mistake' Is 'Revised'.  Trying to decide which governmental institution has suffered the greatest loss of credibility over the COVID-19 pandemic is a bit like trying to decide whether it's better to take a left or right jab to the head.  There's really no wrong answer, and it's all going to hurt.  Yet, when looking at the CDC, they sit somewhere near the top — given just how apolitical the organization seemed to be prior to the coronavirus.  Sure, nothing in Washington, D.C., is ever actually apolitical, but at least it was such a small part of our lives that you never really thought about it.  Over the last two years, though, the CDC has been interjected into American policy-making in unprecedented ways, and that's led to some terrible results via unsupported mask hysteria, lockdowns, and other mandates.  And while you'd expect an organization founded on "science" to never do things with a political bent, it's clear CDC Dir. Rochelle Walensky has been getting her orders directly from the Biden administration.

UTLA and SEIU Local 99 Grifters Will Not Go Quietly on Dropping Mask Mandates for LAUSD.  After Governor Gavin Newsom lifted his hand on February 15 to ease the indoor mask mandates for unvaccinated individuals — but not for the schools, students and parents continued to hammer him on this selective easing and his continued insistence on maintaining his emergency powers, which allow him to keep these COVID mandates in place.  Hair Gel claimed he would revisit the student mask mandates on March 11, but certain California county school districts had had enough of his Hairfulness' version of selective science.  They independently reviewed the actual science, and their insurance carrier's policies, and proceeded to bypass Newsom to institute their own mask-optional policies before March 11.  So, Newsom lifted his hand again and decided that mask mandates in schools were to end after March 11 after all.  Amazing how that works.

Air Force Veteran Forced to Choose Between Getting Vaccine or Dying.  Chad Carswell was barely 18 when insurgents during Operation Enduring Freedom took aim at his KC-135 — a giant gas tank with wings — with him and other Air Force crewmen inside.  He described a chaotic scene in an exclusive interview with The Epoch Times and the moment he realized the only way to thwart a deadly and fiery explosion was to try to get to the guns that were locked up in a vehicle 10 feet away.  "It was a pretty intense moment," recalled Carswell who recounted the days he served at the border of Qatar during U.S. airstrikes on Al-Qaeda and the Taliban in America's response to the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States.  Carswell admittedly didn't expect to find himself in combat just weeks into boot camp.  Others newly enlisted left before finishing training, but Carswell said humanitarian work with refugees "made him realize how blessed he was" — and so he stayed in to help.  Sadly, some Americans have not shown Carswell the same compassion.

The Vindication of D.A. Henderson.  "We were going to invent pandemic planning."  Those were the words of Dr. Rajeev Venkayya in 2005 when he headed the White House bioterrorism study group under George W. Bush.  "We want to use all instruments of national power to confront this threat," Venkayya told colleagues in the administration, as reported by Michael Lewis in his book "The Premonition."  That was the birth of the idea of national lockdown for pathogenic threat.  To mainstream epidemiologists, the idea seemed crazy and potentially ruinous at the time, a fact that only emboldened its creators.  Venkayya's colleague computer scientist Robert Glass told Lewis:  ["]I asked myself, 'Why didn't these epidemiologists figure it out?'  They didn't figure it out because they didn't have tools that were focused on the problem.  They had tools to understand the movement of infectious diseases without the purpose of trying to stop them.["]

The Final Nail in the Coffin of Mask Hysteria Emerges.  [Scroll down]  South Korea is a country that has long been held up as a model for how to fight COVID-19.  Already possessing a culture of compliance, widespread mask-usage in the Asian country pre-existed the pandemic, and once the coronavirus hit, that kicked into high gear.  Mask mandates were dutifully followed by almost all South Korean residents, and social distancing was implemented.  And for a while, it seemed to work.  Whenever someone wanted to down the United States' response to the coronavirus, South Korea was a favorite comparison to make.  But as with New Zealand, it appears the inevitable was just being delayed by strict social distancing measures, which are effective but are also highly damaging to the physical, mental, and economic wellbeing of people.  To illustrate that, you only have to look at what's currently happening in South Korea.  Despite the nation's best efforts, it is on the verge of catching up to the United States in cumulative COVID cases.

There is no need for more COVID money.  In the interest of providing much-needed aid to Ukraine, avoiding a government shutdown, and sending as much pork home to their home districts as possible, members of Congress acted on a bipartisan basis this month and passed an omnibus spending bill six months into the fiscal year.  As badly as they behaved in doing this, they at least had the good sense to purge from this 2,700-page monstrosity President Joe Biden's request for $22.5 billion (later $15.6 billion) in additional funds for COVID relief.  The only danger at this point is that members might go back and decide that it's worth wasting this money.  It isn't.  The feds have failed, despite being pressed repeatedly, to show what happened to all the hundreds of billions spent on COVID already.  It is known at this point that a large amount of that money is not being used.  In a time when inflation is setting multidecadal records, there is no reason to make things even worse by spending even more money on a situation that is no longer an economic or health emergency.

Fauci Says He's Considering Stepping Down.  Dr. Anthony Fauci said in a new interview that he is considering stepping away from the position he'd held since 1984.  Fauci, the longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), was asked during a podcast released March 18 whether he was mulling retirement or transitioning to a less-demanding job.  "I certainly am because I've got to do it sometime," Fauci, 81, said.  "I can't stay at this job forever, unless my staff is going to find me slumped over my desk one day.  I'd rather not do that," he added.  Fauci was appointed to his position in 1984 during the Reagan administration.

NYC Indefinitely Extends Vaccine Mandate for Employers, School Mask Mandate for Toddlers.  New York City's private employer vaccine mandate and the school mask mandate imposed on children five-and-under will remain in place indefinitely, the city's new health commissioner announced Friday [3/18/2022].  "I think it's indefinite at this point," Dr. Ashwin Vasan said at COVID-19 press briefing.  "People who have tried to predict what will happen in this future for this pandemic have repeatedly found egg on their face, as they say.  And I'm not going to do that here today."  "I would love for me to sit here and say, I can give you a date or a data point for when we would lift those things," he added.  "Right now, we are in a low risk environment, and we will continue to evaluate that data."  On March 2, New York State lifted its school mask mandate for kids ages five and up, keeping the requirement for those younger.  Last week, however, New York City Mayor Eric Adams said the end was in sight for kids under five, promising to suspend the mask rule for them if Covid-19 cases remained low.

Fauci returns with a warning:  We need to be ready to impose new restrictions.  If memory serves, it took all of six weeks last year for public health officials to move from urging the vaccinated to take off their masks to nudging them to put them on again.  It's been only three weeks since the CDC updated its guidance to say that Americans who live in areas where hospitals aren't stressed can go ahead and unmask.  Will we make it to six weeks this time before that guidance is reversed again?  Anthony Fauci has been scarce on American television lately with COVID cases falling and news outlets consumed with the war in Ukraine.  But the White House is bringing him out of mothballs and dusting him off this week to remind Americans that the new CDC guidance was never meant to be permanent.  The masks can come off when cases are falling — and may have to go back on when cases are rising.

Over and out:
Pandemic over, Biden COVID czar out.  First Anthony Fauci went on walkabout.  Then an Axios-Ipsos poll showed most Americans deciding that the pandemic is over, at least as far as their tolerance for extraordinary interventions, thanks in large part to the rollback of mask mandates.  In another sign that the White House wants to get in front of voter exhaustion, Joe Biden has exchanged his political adviser as COVID czar with an actual health professional.  And it's not Anthony Fauci, either:  ["]Jeffrey D. Zients, an entrepreneur and management consultant who steered President Biden's coronavirus response through successive pandemic waves and the largest vaccination campaign in American history, plans to leave the White House in April to return to private life, President Biden said in a statement.["]

Americans deserve an apology from the medical experts.  The medical establishment has marched in lockstep on COVID-19, presenting a consensus of expertise as they marginalized physicians who had different opinions.  Two years into the pandemic, it's fair to ask, how did public health officials do?  Wash your hands like crazy (at least 20 seconds) and pour alcohol-based solutions on your grocery bags to stop COVID transmission, you were told for months.  Despite being an expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci immediately applied the influenza surface transmission model to COVID. The logical starting hypothesis should have been that COVID was aerosolized.  There are only three coronaviruses that cause serious illness in humans:  SARS, MERS and COVID.  SARS and MERS spread by air.  Why did Dr. Fauci think COVID was so different?  The NIH could have done the definitive experiment in one day to get the answer.  It's OK to be wrong in science, but not for months when the National Institutes of Health could have spent a fraction of its $42 billion budget to instantly establish how COVID spreads.

All the idiocy of Covid and vaccine mandates in one neat package.  In September, as part of his never-ending quest to ruin New York, then-Mayor Bill de Blasio required Covid jabs for adults going to indoor venues like restaurants or gyms.  Including Barclays Center, where the Nets play.  Then, in December, de Blasio extended the mandate to all private workplaces.  The mandates meant that [Kyrie] Irving couldn't play basketball at Barclays.  He was allowed to play outside New York, but in October the Nets said they wouldn't let him do that either if he couldn't play at home.  Irving was due to make $35 million this season, just shy of $400,000 a game (which made him only the third-highest paid player on the Nets, amazing but true).  Thus, every home game he missed cost him $400,000.  And I thought I was committed to staying unvaccinated.  Though the team still had to pay Irving for the road games.

The big business of false positives in medicine.  Fear is big business.  In America, the prescription and administration of nearly all medications, surgeries and vaccines are all based on fear, not science.  Are you afraid of getting cancer?  Thousands of mammograms (a.k.a. 'scammograms') turn out to be false-positives, leading patients to get expensive diagnostics run, surgery, radiation and even chemotherapy, when those "dark spots" aren't even tumors.  Are you afraid of catching and dying from COVID-19? Millions of PCR tests turn out to be false-positives, leading people to believe they have Fauci Flu, and driving them to quarantine themselves for weeks, check into super-bug-laden hospitals, wear bacteria-breeding masks 24/7, and get gene-mutation injections that literally cause lowered immune system function and blood clots.  All of this and they don't even have COVID, yet are MORE likely to catch it due to the health-decimating effects of the so-called "vaccines."

Multiple studies show [the] COVID jab for kids [is] as bad as getting the disease.  A slew of new studies have again brought to light the dangers of the COVID jab for kids, especially considering how little a risk the disease poses for young children.  Children as young as five years old in many jurisdictions have been approved to receive the jab.  When the shots were approved for kids, it was suggested by proponents that jabs were highly effective in preventing infection and severe cases.

Bedford: We Gave Away Our Freedoms 2 Years Ago, And The GOP Won't Get Them Back.  "It wasn't a virus which is not going to go away; it was the human action, the things we've surrendered," Federalist Senior Editor Christopher Bedford told Tucker Carlson on Fox News.  "And all across the entire Western world, our relationships with our own teachers, our relationships with our politicians, with our media, with our police, with our priests, even with our children and our parents have been fundamentally altered in a way that was largely chosen by our elites.  Forced upon us in a completely hypocritical fashion."  [Video clip]

78-year-old man develops gruesome skin disorder one day after second Pfizer mRNA injection, dies three months later.  Researchers at King Fahad Medical City in Riyadh published a case study in the March 2022 issue of the peer-reviewed journal Annals of Medicine and Surgery.  The abstract states that "mass vaccination remains the most critical way to halt the spread of the COVID pandemic."  Then it goes on to chronicle yet another spine-chilling, post-injection skin disease that are becoming all too common on this blog.  A 78-year-old man arrived at the King Fahad emergency room with numerous bullae (blisters) and hives all over his body.  The blisters started forming one day after the man received his second Pfizer mRNA injection.  He suffered no apparent adverse reactions from the first shot 21 days earlier.  The patient also had an abnormally high count of white blood cells called neutrophils upon checking into the ER.

Thailand Paid $45 Million in COVID Vaccine Injury Claims, While U.S. Has Paid $0.  Thailand's National Health Security Office (NHSO) as of March 8 has paid 1.509 billion baht (the equivalent of $45.65 million) to settle COVID-19 vaccine injury compensation claims.  The payouts were made to 12,714 people, including family members of some people who died as a result of the vaccine.  An additional 891 claims are pending.  A total of 15,933 claims have been filed since the start of the compensation program on May 19, 2021.  Of the 2,328 complaints that were rejected, 875 are being appealed.

The Great Pivot of Spring 2022, V. 2.0.  From where I sit, we appear to be on the threshold of yet another propaganda about-face.  The Ukraine "war" is increasingly looking like it was all about Russia having found a moment when the NATO-associated World Economic Foundation client states were distracted by other matters, and then seizing the opportunity to put a halt to the gradual assimilation of Ukraine into the NATO alliance.  If one looks at the situation from a Russian geopolitical-realpolitik frame of reference, the gradual development of a NATO-aligned state along the Russian border, replete with US-sponsored "Biolabs" that were (at best) working with biothreat agents (toxins, pathogens) collected from the Ukrainian region (and heavens knows where else), represented a legitimate threat to Russian national security.  Were those "Biolabs" more than just sample collection stations?  Russia certainly seem to think so.  The USA acknowledges the existence of these "Biolabs" but denies that they were involved in bioweapon research.  Personally, based on my professional experience, that one sticks in my craw.  Russia asserts otherwise.

'Crate Training': Adam Carolla Offers a Disturbing Explanation for Government's Masking of Kids.  [Scroll down]  Over the last two years, much of the country hasn't shown itself to be particularly slow to submission.  At times, a sizable sector of the citizenry has followed orders with very few questions.  Recently, mask mandates have lessened.  The virus is still here; nothing has changed in that regard.  Yet now, many are revealing their orifices whereas just yesterday they were vocally devoted to face-diapering.  Despite official statements, "the science" hasn't changed; nothing has been shown to that effect.  If it's safe to now go unmasked, it seems, then it was fine six months ago.  Conversely, if we were rightfully hiding our faces half a year ago, then we should be canvasing them now and for the rest of time.  Yet large numbers of people appear to be happily playing don't-ask-why Simon Says.

Rand Paul Slams Republicans Who Voted To Keep Fauci But Impeach Trump.  Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul slammed a group of five Republican senators who voted Tuesday against his amendment to remove Dr. Anthony Fauci but had once voted in favor of impeaching former President Donald Trump.  "I guess I'm not surprised that Republican senators who voted to get rid of Donald Trump voted to keep Anthony Fauci," Paul said in an exclusive statement to the Daily Caller.  "Disappointed but not surprised.  I think if Republican voters in their home states learn of this vote to keep Anthony Fauci, these voters will be very unhappy."  Republican Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah and Jerry Moran of Kansas all voted against the amendment.

A nervous Fauci cites Benghazi probe to say GOP likely to come after him if they retake Congress.  Dr. Anthony Fauci is getting a little nervous.  The White House chief medical advisor, whose handling of the COVID-19 pandemic has drawn either abject endorsement or stinging rebuke depending on whom you ask, expects to face some tough questions come next year.  In an interview with The Washington Post, a mouthpiece not known for its hostility to the good doctor, Fauci speculated that he'd likely be in the hot seat if Republicans take Congress in the upcoming midterm elections. [...] Of course, Fauci has good reason to be worried.  The Republicans have made it quite clear that they intend to grill the doctor about his alleged involvement with outsourced gain-of-function research in the People's Republic of China.  Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) has distinguished himself as an especially persistent critic of Dr. Fauci, enlivening otherwise dull hearings with fiery exchanges that often seem to ruffle the NIAID director's feathers.

Fauci Braces for House GOP Investigations: 'Benghazi Hearings All Over Again'.  White House COVID-19 adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci said he expects to be investigated by Republicans if they take back control of the House during the 2022 midterm elections.  "It's Benghazi hearings all over again," Fauci told The Washington Post on March 15 in reference to numerous GOP lawmakers saying they will look into alleged gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China, located near where the first COVID-19 cases were officially reported in late 2019.  Fauci, an unelected federal official who has headed the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1984, claimed that potential hearings "will distract me from doing my job, the way it's doing right now."  Should there be hearings and an investigation, Fauci said, "there will be nothing there."

British Airways and Virgin Atlantic Embrace Freedom, Remove Mask Mandates on Flights.  British Airways has become the world's first major airline to remove mask mandates onboard the aircraft for passengers from Wednesday, in a move shortly followed by Virgin Atlantic.  Britain's second-largest airline firm announced on Tuesday that they will no longer require passengers to wear masks on board their planes and will instead allow people to "make a personal choice" on the matter.

It's at least a year too late to start asking this question.
What if the COVID-19 vaccines are not really vaccines?  Evidence has come to light strongly indicating that the Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines are not really "vaccines" in the medical and legal sense of the word, but rather "experimental gene therapies."  If proven true, the significance and legal ramifications of this allegation are profound.  This article summarizes a presentation by Dr. David Martin, a national intelligence analyst and founder of IQ100 Index, a developer of linguistic genomics, and molecular biologist Dr. Judy Mikovits.  In the presentation, Dr. Martin states, "You cannot have a vaccine that doesn't claim to result in either immunity or blocking transmission."  He goes on to say, "By their own patents and reference material, neither Pfizer nor Moderna claims this.  Rather, they only classify their products as 'gene therapy.'"  Dr. Martin states the Moderna and Pfizer products "do not prevent you from getting the COVID-19 infection, nor do they prevent its spread.  They are really experimental gene therapies — unlike real vaccines, which use an antigen of the disease you're trying to prevent, the Moderna and Pfizer injections contain synthetic RNA fragments encapsulated in a nanolipid carrier compound, the sole purpose of which is to lessen clinical symptoms associated with the S-1 spike protein, not the actual virus."

Cuomo Agency Undercounted Nursing Home Deaths by 4,100.  Cuomo is blaming "cancel culture" for his downfall.  Ask the families of thousands of dead nursing home patients about cancel culture.  The latest report is the first mildly relevant report on Cuomo's mishandling of the pandemic which means that it's worth more than the lame effort by the state AG to unseat him with his inappropriate behavior with women.  ["]Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's Department of Health undercounted the number of COVID-19 nursing home deaths by at least 4,100 and was unprepared to confront the deadly contagion before it ever arrived, state Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli said in an audit released Tuesday night.["]  He was however prepared to cash in on it.  The important part though isn't this part of the undercounting.  It's this part.  ["]The report also said the DOH failed to respond to federal directives to survey nursing homes for infection control problems, reporting 20% of facilities between March and May 2020, compared to more than 90% for some other states.  Throughout the audit, DiNapoli said, the DOH slow-walked requested data, limited auditors' contact with program staff and failed to provide all necessary documentation.["]  Undercounting nursing home deaths is a cover-up, but Cuomo's got his excuse there.  Failing to survey nursing homes for infection control issues actually could have contributed to nursing home deaths.

Dr. Peter McCullough:  Findings From Early COVID-19 Vaccine Studies [are] Potentially Alarming.  How safe are COVID-19 vaccines?  Should everyone be taking them?  Are people who get vaccines more likely to get COVID-19? Can genetic material in the vaccines be incorporated into the human genome?  These are some of the unknown questions that researchers around the world are currently investigating.  With more initial findings and hypotheses now released to the public, a group of free speech and information advocates last week during a presentation in Pennsylvania gave their "uncensored" take of the current science.  They are currently traveling around the United States sharing concerns about how public health policy and debate throughout the COVID-19 pandemic has been handled.  The speakers were Dr. Peter McCullough, a renowned cardiologist whose own research is highly-cited; Dr. Bryan Ardis, a chiropractor; attorney Thomas Renz; and Steve Kirsch, a Silicon Valley philanthropist who supported early efforts searching for COVID-19 treatments in medicines already on the market.

These 6 Republicans Voted Against Ousting Fauci.  Six Republican senators voted against an amendment Tuesday that would eliminate the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) position, which is held by Dr. Anthony Fauci.  Senators voted on Kentucky Republican Rand Paul's amendment to replace the NIAID with three separate national research institutes on Tuesday morning in Washington, D.C.  Republican Senators Richard Burr of North Carolina, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, and Jerry Moran of Kansas each voted against the amendment.

From 15 Days to Two Years.  In March 2020, once-free citizens around the world surrendered their liberty and livelihoods in a futile attempt to "stop" a virus.  The most technologically advanced civilization in the history of mankind quickly adopted medieval fixes that bordered on quackery, sold by snake oil salesmen in the credentialied class and news media, codified through executive fiat by elected leaders of both parties.  "Just 15 days," we were told on March 16, 2020, "to slow the spread."  Do your part to promote the "common good" — the historical rallying cry of every wannabe despot — or be branded a heartless heretic.  And it worked, far better than the original architects probably anticipated.

Two Years After Lockdowns, The West's Troubles Aren't Ending — They're Just Beginning.  wo years ago this week, the United States shut down.  Churches, schools and businesses went dark.  Weddings, funerals, and birthdays went silent.  City streets stood empty, with an eeriness closer resembling occupied Paris than the bustling hubs they'd been just days before.  Two years later, as the last of the mask mandates for school children falter and crack, it's tempting to believe our nightmare is finally over.  Just as the disease is going to haunt us a long while, however, so too will the effects of how we tried to fight it.  Americans' relationships with our politicians, bureaucrats, schools, media, police, and churches are fundamentally altered.  Indeed, the entire West's relationships with these major segments of society are forever remade.  As we look out on the wreckage of two years of Covid policies, as well as our spiking fuel prices, rocketing inflation, a contested election, a Chinese Olympics, and a land war in Europe, it's increasingly clear that, far from standing at the end of a dark era, our civilization teeters unsteadily at the very beginning of one.

CDC Study of VAERS Data Finds High Incidence of COVID Vaccine Side Effects, Including Death.  Ever since the COVID-19 vaccines were first made available, open and honest discussion about them, their efficacy, and their potential side effects has been subject to big-tech censorship — particularly regarding the mRNA vaccines by Pfizer and Moderna.  But maybe now we can finally have open discourse because a new peer-reviewed study from the CDC found significant instances of death and severe side effects from the mRNA vaccines.

Massive Conflicts of Interest at the NIH Exposed.  One of the primary vehicles for kickbacks and fraud seems to be foundations associated with federal agencies.  This article will highlight and expose yet another way we are being conned and manipulated by examining the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health1 (FNIH), whose board is plastered with major Big Pharma players.  This raises serious questions about conflicts of interest, seeing how the foundation oversees the distribution of hundreds of millions of dollars — unregulated funds that typically go right back into the coffers of the drug industry.  It's a very clever strategy to extract even more funds from the American taxpayers.

Chernobyl and the Lies of COVID.  Chernobyl is back in the news because Russian troops have taken control of the area during their invasion of Ukraine.  The International Atomic Energy Agency and European nations throughout the continent are understandably nervous about this predicament, but this essay is not about those concerns.  It is about the lessons Western governments should have learned from that nearly apocalyptic event but instead ignored during the last two years of COVID mania.  As details concerning the Chernobyl disaster became available after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the West reached the inescapable conclusion that the tragedy could have occurred only in a closed off socialist system in which the State preserves its authority by maintaining a false image of always being correct and never being wrong.  The lessons were clear:
  [#1]   When "science" must be State-sanctioned, then the objectivity required to foresee and correct problems disappears.
  [#2]   When dissent and conflicting analysis are treated as "misinformation" or "disinformation," then truth is routinely treated as a lie.
  [#3]   When concerns for national security and a culture of official State secrets dominate all government operations, then censorship of facts and viewpoints prevent timely problem-solving.

COVID Care Fiasco:  The Hill-Lawrie Video.  Apparently, in late 2020, studies began to accumulate looking at the potential of the drug Ivermectin in the treatment of SARS Co-V2.  This antiparasitic agent was also known to have antiviral properties.  This attracted the attention of both the WHO and Dr. Lawrie's organization.  The WHO contracted with Dr. Hill to evaluate the data, and independently, the Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy took on the same task.  This involved performing a meta-analysis.  This is a process where studies on a topic are collected and are analyzed for their quality.  This includes how rigorous was the method, and the potential for bias.  The best studies are pooled and the results analyzed.  There are very well-established protocols for this.  Both Dr. Hill and Dr. Lawrie completed separate analyses and the results for both were exciting.  There seemed to be a real benefit to using Ivermectin as a treatment for COVID.  Both concluded that the reduction in deaths could be as much as 60 to 85%.  Both were comfortable with the quality of their results.  According to Dr. Lawrie, they compared notes and together pledged to push hard for the rapid approval of the drug, given the prevailing pandemic.

17 reasons why it is irrational to trust the medical community regarding the covid vaccines.  [#16] Every specific claim made regarding the vaccines so far has ultimately proven to be false.  Here are just a few of the many specific claims made about the vaccines by the medical community that have since been resoundingly debunked:
  •   The injected serum of the vaccine will stay in the area of the injection site
  •   The spike proteins will remain tethered to the cell membrane and won't escape into circulation
  •   The spike protein is not biologically active
  •   The spike protein has no significant toxicities
  •   No corners were cut in the development or trials of the vaccines
  •   There were no life-altering SAE's in the Pfizer kids trial
  •   The lipid nanoparticles are safe and won't circulate all over the anatomy
  •   The vaccines confer superior immunity to natural infection
  •   The vaccines prevent infection & transmission
  •   There are no serious side effects associated with the vaccines
  •   there is no plausible mechanism or basis by which the vaccines can affect fertility
  •   reports of menstrual irregularities are exaggerated and fake
  •   VAERS reports are mostly submitted by random people who are simply assuming without any basis that a random adverse event that happened after vaccination is related to the vaccine
  •   The CDC investigated all of the VAERS reports of death and determined that none were attributable to the vaccine
  •   There is no need for long term observation to determine that there are no serious long term effects
  •   99% of the hospitalizations for covid are unvaccinated patients
  •   There is no basis for a causal link between myocarditis and the vaccines
  •   Myocarditis is an exceedingly rare complication from the vaccines, and everyone is more likely to get myocarditis from covid than from the vaccines
In Short:  Every specific thing they said about the vaccines that can be adjudicated so far has turned out to be demonstrably false.  Why would anyone trust someone on a topic where everything they say is wrong?

Ursula von der Leyen suspected of 'serious conflicts of interest' by MEPs.  The initiative was launched by AfD MEP Christine Anderson and Romanian Christian Democrat Cristian-Vasile Terhes.  Other representatives of the AfD, EPP, FPÖ, but also the Greens and the Left are also on board.  The cross-party initiative demands, among other things, the resignation of EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.  She is accused of having been involved in a "gigantic Covid 19 scientific fraud".  The EU's vaccination campaign, they say, threatens democracy, freedom and human rights in Europe.  The European policy spokesman of the AfD parliamentary group in the Bavarian state parliament, Martin Böhm, sees the initiative in the larger context of the staged "pandemic" of the last two years.  Böhm explained:  "The exclusion of the unvaccinated, the threat of compulsory vaccination, the restrictions on freedom of work, movement and education, and the violation of patient confidentiality have undermined the trust of millions of people in democratic institutions.  Now more and more details from the prehistory of the global pandemic scandal are coming to light.

Rand Paul vows to remove 'dictator in chief' Fauci from NIAID.  Sen. Rand Paul said he will introduce an amendment to remove Dr. Anthony Fauci as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — saying no one should be "dictator in chief."  Paul (R-Ky.), who often feuded with Fauci at Senate hearings over the administration's response to the coronavirus pandemic, said American "lives were held captive by petty tyrants and power-hungry bureaucrats" over the past two years.  "We've learned a lot over the past two years, but one lesson in particular is that no one person should be deemed 'dictator in chief.'  No one person should have unilateral authority to make decisions for millions of Americans," Paul, an ophthalmologist, wrote in an op-ed on Fox News Monday.  "To ensure that ineffective, unscientific lockdowns and mandates are never foisted on the American people ever again, I will introduce an amendment to eliminate Dr. Anthony Fauci's position as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and divide his power into three separate new institutes," the senator continued.

Biden triggers GOP backlash with federal mask mandate extension.  The Biden administration announced an extension to the federal mask mandate for airplanes, airports, and public transit, upsetting a host of critics who cheered the end of COVID-19 restrictions in blue states and public buildings.  President Joe Biden conducted a mask-optional State of the Union address, and the White House went maskless days later as the nation began moving out of the panic phase of the pandemic.  Nonetheless, passengers in almost anything but a private vehicle will be required to wear a mask until at least April 18, the fourth extension of a mandate introduced soon after Biden took office.

I&I/TIPP Poll: 65% Say Recent Lifting Of COVID Restrictions Is Driven By 'Politics,' Not 'Science'.  As COVID deaths wane and the virus appears to be losing its virulence, restrictions imposed during the height of the pandemic are beginning to be lifted.  The latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows that most Americans believe the restrictions are largely being eased for political reasons, not science.  The latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows strong sentiment in favor of ending the limits imposed on Americans' lives due to the COVID pandemic.  Among those queried, 29% they felt that restrictions were being lifted "too slowly," while 29% said they were being taken down "at the right time."  Less than a third, or 32%, said they thought restrictions were coming off "too fast."  And 10% were unsure.

New Rules on Extremism — DHS Will Target Anyone Who Believes Election Was Stolen or Who Challenged Fauci's Everchanging COVID Narrative.  In Joe Biden's first year in office over 2 million illegal aliens from dozens of countries walked into the United States across the southern border.  The numbers this year look even greater.  Joe Biden and DHS Secretary Mayorkas immediately opened up the US southern border after they came into office.  Biden also set another record.  Only 59,011 illegals were deported his first year in office.  This was the lowest number since 1995.

The Continued Politicization of COVID.  From the beginning of COVID two years ago, health authorities and the media have been preaching "follow the science," but what they don't say is that it's not medical science that they are following but instead political science.  How else does one explain sudden new rules and recommendations, contradicting past "settled science," regarding everything from natural immunity and off label therapeutics to the futility of masks and social distancing.  It seems that overnight the science changed with this viral pandemic due to an upcoming election and the convenient distraction of Russian-Ukrainian war.  Does anyone doubt that COVID would have played out far differently in 2020 if it had been President Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders running for reelection rather than Donald Trump?

Documentary shows how COVID restrictions imposed 'fear,' increased 'control' over people.  The film Planet Lockdown explores this unprecedented time in history, speaking with epidemiologists, scientists, doctors and other experts to uncover the real motives behind the increasing totalitarian control taking over the globe.  Already banned by Facebook and YouTube, the film starts at the beginning of the pandemic, when we were told lockdowns were necessary to "flatten the curve."  This was supposed to be a short-term, 15-day event in the U.S., but the narrative soon changed to ongoing restrictions.  As Michael Yeadon, Ph.D., a former vice-president and chief scientific adviser of the drug company Pfizer and founder and CEO of the biotech company Ziarco, now owned by Novartis, explained, people have historically quarantined the sick, but quarantining healthy people, as has occurred for the past two years, has no scientific backing or historic precedence.

MLB players who refused COVID shot won't get paid for missed games in Canada: report.  Major League Baseball (MLB) players who have chosen not to take one of the abortion-tainted COVID shots will likely not get paid for missed games due to Canada's vaccine passport system.  The latest collective bargaining agreement reportedly does not protect players who cannot travel to play the Toronto Blue Jays due to Canada's restriction on visitors who have declined to get jabbed.  The MLB season starts April 7.

Obama Announces He Has COVID - Then Drops Some Huge Misinformation.  On Sunday, former President Barack Obama announced on Twitter that he has tested positive for COVID.  [Tweet] [...] According to a "source," CNN says he appears to have caught it in Washington, D.C., after spending most of the winter in Hawaii.  But if you check out his Facebook announcement, there's a small problem in that one.  He says that people should get vaccinated and boosted "to help prevent more serious symptoms and giving COVID to others."  [Tweet]  You can spread the virus even if you are vaccinated — and you can still get it, even if you are vaccinated.  So, this is just straight-up misinformation from Obama.  Where is the misinformation police to flag his post?  Apparently, this misinformation is cool because it's from Barack Obama.

'Triple-jabbed' Obama tests positive for COVID, but is he lying about shot?  Although he claims to be vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19, Barack Obama announced Sunday he has tested positive for the coronavirus, and is showing some symptoms.  "I just tested positive for COVID," Obama said on Twitter.

The Editor says...
Hmmm.  Which is more likely:  The so-called vaccine doesn't work, or Obama is lying about having been injected with it?

Pfizer COVID Vaccine Has 1,291 Side Effects Reveals Released Documents.  When Pfizer applied for FDA approval, they were aware of almost 158,000 adverse events.  This really does not paint them in a favorable light.  And now, it's been officially reported that Pfizer's COVID vaccine has 1,291 side effects according to released documents.  In January, a judge ordered the FDA to provide clinical data on the COVID vaccinations, which resulted in the disclosure of 55,000 pages of documentation.  The FDA had planned to keep the data hidden for 75 years until releasing it in 2096 because, well, the FDA is essentially a criminal conspiracy.  The COVID vaccinations never should have been licensed in the first place.

Covid infections in Britain are rising again, and 90 percent of the dead are vaccinated.  In February, 90 percent of the 1,000 Britons who died each week of Covid were vaccinated.  New infections are not only far higher than they were before the Omicron variant emerged, they are rising again after a brief fall in February.  And even boosters appear to offer no protection against hospitalizations in younger people.  British data are crucial both because Britain vaccinated and boosted early and because its datasets are far more complete and less politicized than those in the United States.  Day by day, week by week, the figures are becoming more worrisome.  They hint that mRNA and DNA shots may have slowed if not completely halted the natural progression to herd immunity that occurred in earlier respiratory virus epidemics.  In fact, Britain now reports 99 percent of adults have antibodies to Covid, mostly as the result of vaccination.  That level is far higher than epidemiologists believed would be necessary to support herd immunity.  Yet Covid infections, hospitalizations, and deaths continue unabated.

Neurological Injuries Soar After Shots : Strokes, Bel's Palsy, Paralysis, MS.  An examination of the FDA and CDC's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) confirms that deaths and injuries due to neurological issues following COVID-19 injections have skyrocketed, when compared to the same adverse events reported following all FDA-approved vaccines for the previous 30 years.  And while none of the U.S. Health Agencies have published or made public their research on these post-vaccine neurological injuries, many medical journals have.  The COVID-19 experimental vaccines, which were given emergency use authorization illegally, should have been immediately pulled from the market at least a year ago.

Judge Unseals 400 Pages of Evidence, Clears Way for Pfizer Whistleblower Lawsuit.  A whistleblower lawsuit alleging fraud during Pfizer's COVID vaccine trials is moving forward, after a district court judge unsealed the complaint, including 400 pages of exhibits.  Brook Jackson in January 2021 sued Pfizer and two companies the drugmaker contracted with to work on the trials:  Ventavia Research Group and ICON PLC.  Jackson worked for Ventavia for a brief period in 2020 before being fired after she filed a complaint with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over alleged improprieties she observed during the vaccine trials.

Official New Zealand Ministry of Health Data shows the Fully Vaccinated are developing Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome.  The New Zealand Ministry of Health are presenting Covid-19 data in a way that misleadingly suggests the Covid-19 injections are extremely effective, and they are deceivingly doing their upmost to ensure you cannot prove otherwise.  But as is always the case here at The Expose, where there is a will, there is a way, and we have managed to uncover the true nature of the current Covid-19 situation in New Zealand according to the Ministry of Health's buried statistics, and the data strongly suggests the fully vaccinated are developing Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). [...] The problem we're seeing here is that the immune system isn't returning to its original and natural state.  If it was then the outcomes of infection with Covid-19 would be similar to the outcomes among the not-vaccinated/one dose vaccinated population.  Instead, it continues to decline at a rate that means the not-vaccinated population have a better performing immune system, so this means the Covid-19 injections are decimating the immune systems of the fully vaccinated.

CDC/FDA Smoking Gun of Smoking Guns.  They confess: they had no virus when they concocted the test for the virus; they "contrived" a model by pretending to find what they wanted to find; it's called a self-fulfilling prophecy[.]  This is the con and the crime that drove millions of lives, and economies, into ruin[.]

The CDC Has Been Warned a 'Criminal' Fraud Investigation is 'Ready to Go' After Midterm Elections.  Dr. Robert Malone, a noted mRNA vaccine researcher, and Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most-published medical doctors in the world, gave a joint statement to The New American on Friday where they accused the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention of perpetrating "criminal" fraud.  Watch:  "In my opinion, withholding scientific data constitutes fraud," Dr. Malone argued.  "This is scientific fraud.  In my opinion, if I was to publish a study in which I had a large body of epidemiologic data, and I decided to only public publish part of it because I wanted to advance some agenda, I would be guilty of scientific fraud.  The paper would be withdrawn.  I would be kicked out of my academic institution.  I would be guilty of scientific fraud.  That's what this is."  "And the CDC has, I've watched it over the years, become more and more and more a political arm and not serving its function," he continued.  "This is the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.  They are the archive of information that physicians have relied on for decades through the MMWR publication.  They are the ones that are responsible for providing us the frontline data about what's going on and where it's happening and they have stopped performing that function."

WHO is World Government.  Power grab scheduled for May 1, 2022.  "The fact that they are suddenly distancing themselves from restrictions is just a game.  The last week of January 2022 WHO held an emergency meeting and deliberations in Geneva on expanding its powers to take over all member states in the event of a pandemic and "any other form of threat or disaster".  WHO wants member states to sign a new treaty on Covid-19, which expands the 2005 treaty.  Once signed by the Ministers of Health, the WHO Constitution (according to its Article 9) takes precedence over a country's constitution (189 countries have signed the 2005 treaty) during natural disasters or pandemics.  Since the definition of pandemic was changed a few years ago (cases based on the PCR test), they can enforce obedience in any country and impose WHO guidelines on the public, which will be mandatory, not just recommended.  And that sounds like power over the country and the world."

Kids in Fresno are still Forced to Eat Outside on the Ground Wearing Masks while six feet Apart.  Yet another example showing that teachers and school boards [don't care] about the kids they're supposed to be looking out for.  Thankfully this woman caught the child abuse on camera showing kids being forced to eat their lunch while sitting on the ground and wearing masks.  They're supposed to lift the mask up to take bites of their food.  They must all stay 6 ft apart as well, despite the Democrat governor lifting most restrictions for adults so people could attend the Superbowl, they left all of the ridiculous rules in place for children.  [Video clip]

When Do We Get Our Apologies?  Respiratory virus transmission is impossible to stop — a lesson New Zealand, Hong Kong and China are still learning.  Attempts to suppress the spread are futile.  Such measures usually lead to unintended (perhaps, but certainly predictable) consequences that can be more devastating than the virus itself.  Normal life is upended, worsening health for those who are most ill, isolating the already lonely elderly, destroying educational and social development for children, leading to more drug and alcohol abuse and greater mental health issues.  These harms go on for years and decades.  None of this was mysterious or unknown.  Any thoughtful, calm, rational response would have recognized these basic facts and issues.  But instead we were served a hysterical, lemming-like overreaction which in the end did not protect most of the population from being infection or many from serious disease.  On behalf of the public, I would like an apology from those responsible for the disastrous handling of the epidemic response.

Did flawed PCR tests convince us Covid was worse than it really was?  It has been one of the most enduring Covid conspiracy theories: that the 'gold standard' PCR tests used to diagnose the virus were picking up people who weren't actually infected.  Some even suggested the swabs, which have been carried out more than 200 million times in the UK alone, may mistake common colds and flu for corona.  If either, or both, were true, it would mean many of these cases should never have been counted in the daily tally — that the ominous and all-too-familiar figure, which was used to inform decisions on lockdowns and other pandemic measures, was an over-count.  And many of those who were 'pinged' and forced to isolate as a contact of someone who tested positive — causing a huge strain on the economy — did so unnecessarily.  Such statements, it must be said, have been roundly dismissed by top experts.  And those scientists willing to give credence such concerns have been shouted down on social media, accused of being 'Covid-deniers', and even sidelined by colleagues.  But could they have been right all along?

Dialectical Faucism.  In response to plunging polls, Joe Biden wants to roll back the public health security state but keep his emergency powers.  The key figure in that quest is White House advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci, profiled at length in The Real Anthony Fauci, by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.  Fauci earned a medical degree in 1966 but in 1968 hired on with the National Institutes of Health.  Dr. Fauci's bio showed no advanced degrees in molecular biology or biochemistry, but in 1984 he became head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).  According to Nobel laureate Kary Mullis, inventor of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Fauci did not understand electron microscopy, did not understand medicine, and was thus unqualified for the post.  Fauci's prediction that AIDS would ravage the general population was hopelessly wrong, but he remained at the helm of NIAID, steadily gaining power.

U.S. Funds Ukrainian Former Bioweapons Facility Handling 'Dangerous Materials... With Windows Wide Open'.  A Ukrainian biolab receiving funds from the U.S. government was formerly a bioweapons factory under the control of the Soviet Union, with experts recently reporting a "lack of modern biosafety equipment" as well as "lethal microbes that in the West would be locked away in high-containment laboratories," the National Pulse can reveal. [...] The news follows Biden State Department official Victoria Nuland telling the U.S. Senate that the American government is concerned about biological research facilities falling into Russian hands as a result of the ongoing conflict in Eastern Europe, despite the department appearing to correct her testimony the following day.  The unearthed article also confirms a previous National Pulse report revealing how former President Barack Obama spearheaded negotiations leading to the lab eventually receiving U.S. government funds as part of a memorandum of understanding with the U.S. Department of Defense.

Disgraced CDC director uses CNN reports to conjure up COVID mandates, harming countless lives in the process.  During the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) scandal, it's obvious the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) derived many of their policies of subjugation and segregation on pharmaceutical propaganda and CNN reports.  CDC director Rochelle Walensky admitted this in a recent lecture at Washington University in Saint Louis.  The lecture was titled "Lessons from the Pandemic for the future of Public Health."  Walensky recalled getting the news from CNN that the vaccine was "95 percent effective."  The CDC used this fake news propaganda to create policies of coercion and subjugation, advertising to the public that the vaccine was the only way out of lockdown and isolation.  At the lecture, Dr. Walensky was asked how the CDC could have improved over the past two years.  "Um... well, you know I think... I can tell you where I was when the CNN feed came that it was 95 percent effective... um the vaccine.  So many of us wanted to be hopeful.  So many of us wanted to say, 'Okay, this is our ticket out, right, now we're done,'" Walensky jabbered.

Was It Professor Andrew Owen Who Blocked Ivermectin as A Treatment for Covid?  Over one year ago, there were ample peer-reviewed, randomised controlled trials that provided strong evidence on ivermectin's efficacy as a treatment for Covid in every disease phase.  A paper considering these many studies was written by lead author Dr. Andrew Hill at the University of Liverpool for the World Health Organisation ("WHO").  Dr. Hill was an early and vigorous proponent for ivermectin.  His paper showed that ivermectin could reduce deaths by 75% if used throughout the world.  Inexplicably, just days before its publication, the paper appeared on a pre-print server, with its conclusions changed.  Given the totality of scientific evidence for ivermectin, it was a stunning — actually shocking — reversal by Dr. Hill.

Texas Rangers Raid County Administration Building After What Commissioners Inside Allegedly Did.  The Texas Rangers were called in Friday to search the offices of Harris County officials in connection with an investigation into possible corruption linked to a contract to provide COVID-19 vaccinations.  Although officials said Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo's offices were not searched, computers and phones used by at least two staff members were seized, according to KHOU-TV.  "A judge signed search warrants, which are legal authorization to search for and seize potential evidence of a crime," said Dane Schiller with the Harris County District Attorney's Office.  "Out of fairness for all parties involved, we have no additional comment at this time."

Chicago Mayor warns cops and city workers they'll be put on no-pay status if they don't get first dose of Covid vaccine by Sunday.  Chicago city workers who don't have their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, a group that includes about 2,800 cops, will be placed on nondisciplinary no-pay status on Sunday after the city won another court battle over its mandate last week.  The city will consider disciplining workers on a case-by-base basis, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said Friday [3/11/2022].  'All city employees, including Chicago police officers, who fail to comply may also face disciplinary action, up to and including termination.  These decisions will be addressed at an individual and department level, and are being undertaken in a manner that will not impact public safety or the continuity of everyday government operations,' the mayor said.

Biden Will Extend Mask Mandate on Planes and Trains to April 18.  There's stupid.  There's silly.  And then there's the federal government's mask requirement on public transit.  Masks have contributed in no small way to the spike in "unruly" passenger complaints from airlines.  It's usually started by some busybody who claims someone isn't wearing their mask correctly or took it off.  What follows usually isn't very pretty.  Why is this even an issue after the CDC said that cloth masks are not effective in stopping the spread of the coronavirus?  Unless United Airlines and other carriers are going to hand out the more effective N-95 masks to passengers and flight personnel, there is no purpose whatsoever to forcing passengers to mask up.

New Study Confirms Ivermectin Outperforms Other Options.  At nearly no other time in history has there been this level of fear generated across the world as experienced thus far in 2020 and 2021.  The depth and breadth of the strategies used to stoke those fears has been overwhelming.  Emergency use authorizations for drugs that have not proven to be effective in trials, public mask mandates for which there is no scientific evidence and the suppression and censorship of health information has boosted public fear over a viral illness with a survival rate of over 99%.  Unfortunately, many of the early effective treatment strategies that can be used at home have also fallen victim to censorship.  Ivermectin is one of those strategies.  In a computational analysis of the Omicron variant against several therapeutic agents, data show that ivermectin had the best results.  Yet, as you look objectively at what's been happening across the world, the fear being generated is not one-sided.  The suppression of information by corporations, government agencies and the pharmaceutical industry is one indication of their concern and how far they're willing to go to ensure the level of fear remains high enough to manipulate behavior.

COVID-1984: 600,000 Italians Set to Receive Fines for Being Unvaccinated.  Around 600,000 Italians over the age of 50 are set to receive a fine for being unvaccinated despite the Italian government reviewing a loosening of various Wuhan virus restrictions.  In January, the Italian government decided to make vaccination mandatory for all residents over the age of 50, with the mandate coming into effect in February.  At least 600,000 Italians have been referred to the Italian tax agency and are expected to receive a 100 euro (£84/$110) fine.

Children in China Diagnosed With Leukemia After Taking Chinese Vaccines.  After receiving her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, Li Jun's 4-year-old developed a fever and coughs, which quickly subsided after intravenous therapy at the hospital.  But after the second shot, the father could tell something was wrong.  Swelling appeared around his daughter's eyes and did not go away.  For weeks, the girl complained about pains on her legs, where bruises started to emerge seemingly out of nowhere.  In January, a few weeks after the second dose, the 4-year-old was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.  "My baby was perfectly healthy before the vaccine dose," Li (an alias), from China's north-central Gansu Province, told The Epoch Times.  "I took her for a health check.  Everything was normal."  He is among hundreds of Chinese that belong to a social media group claiming to be suffering from or have a household member suffering from leukemia, developed after taking Chinese vaccines.  Eight of them confirmed the situation when reached by The Epoch Times.  Names of the interviewees have been withheld to protect their safety.

US Funded Weapons Biolabs in Ukraine, Ironically Contained the Same Bat Virus that Shut Down the World the Last 2 Years.  It appears as if the US Government has some dirt on its hands in regards to the virus that caused the world to shut down, if you want to take this Russian report as fact.  This report comes just a day after the US admitted it had biolabs in Ukraine and within hours began denying their own peoples reports.  The confusion around the biolabs could be by design to confuse people, or it could be the fact this White House and Fake president have no clue wtf they're doing.  [Video clip]

Lawsuit seeks $6 million in damages for each plaintiff over Boston's COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  A group of people in Boston is suing the city for $6 million each in damages over the negative effects of the city government's Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine mandate for private businesses.  The 16 plaintiffs, all residents of Massachusetts, stated that the vaccine mandate was unconstitutional and violated their constitutional rights, including their rights to equal treatment and protection.  The plaintiffs filed the lawsuit on Monday, March 7, with the Massachusetts District Court.  The lawsuit listed the Boston Public Health Commission, its Executive Director Dr. Bisola Ojikutu and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu as defendants.  The lawsuit was an amendment to a lawsuit originally designed to block the city's vaccine mandate.  It was filed several hours before city officials lifted the mandate and several weeks before the mask mandate was rescinded.  According to the plaintiffs, the amended complaint was filed because "injunctive relief is no longer available."

CDC head laughs about having had 'too little caution and too much optimism' in now-failed COVID vaccines.  The COVID theater curtain is closing, and nothing makes it more obvious than a recent interview with Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Although couched in giggles and approval-seeking glances, Walensky's remarks last week to an interviewer at Washington University School of Medicine reveal an astonishing level of ignorance and incompetence at the top levels of pandemic response.

Three Novavax adverse reaction cases in Australia have similarities.  The biggest red flag with the Novavax injections (aka Nuvaxovid, Covovax and NVX-CoV2373) is that the company is based in Maryland.  But the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") still has not approved the company's emergency use authorization request for domestic use.  It doesn't help that Senate Republicans, in the absence of post-injection stroke Democrat Ben Luján, passed a resolution last week, 48-47, to end the so-called COVID-19 emergency.  President Joe Biden said he would veto the bill in the unlikely event it got through the House of Representatives.  Meanwhile Indonesia was the first country to authorize Novavax for emergency use in November.  The Philippines followed suit shortly thereafter.  The European Union authorized it in December.  Australia, India, South Korea and the United Kingdom have also authorized the shots for emergency use.

7-Year-Old Died of Cardiac Arrest 13 Days After Pfizer Shot, VAERS Data Show.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) today released new data showing a total of 1,168,894 reports of adverse events following COVID vaccines were submitted between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 4, 2022, to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S.  The data included a total of 25,158 reports of deaths — an increase of 331 over the previous week — and 203,888 reports of serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time period — up 3,557 compared with the previous week.  Excluding "foreign reports" to VAERS, 783,282 adverse events, including 11,505 deaths and 75,286 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 4, 2022.  Foreign reports are reports foreign subsidiaries send to U.S. vaccine manufacturers.  Under U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, if a manufacturer is notified of a foreign case report that describes an event that is both serious and does not appear on the product's labeling, the manufacturer is required to submit the report to VAERS.

This Is Why Ukraine Is Important, One Person's Opinion.  US Under Secretary for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland recently admitted there are Bio Labs in Ukraine and Russians want them.  Why are these labs important?  The Left wants to control scientific research, especially anything conducted at Level 3 and Level 4 labs.  Ms. Winters found deleted documents that are still available on the Wayback Machine and elsewhere.  One of the documents explains Barack Obama entered into an agreement with Ukrainian counterparts to establish such a lab in Odesa.  A report uncovered the fact that they are "especially dangerous pathogens" and the manipulations they were doing to them.  It is indisputable that the Department of Defense was involved in the construction and maintenance of these labs.  It is unclear what they were working on in these labs.

Is the U.S. Promoting Worldwide Bioterrorism?  On Thursday, March 9, the U.S. undersecretary of state for political affairs stated that there was biological research taking place in Ukraine.  Then, in a follow-up question by Sen. Marco Rubio, she stated emphatically that if any biological material from that lab were used in an act of biological warfare, it would surely come from Russia.  While there is a distinction between biological research and biological warfare research, the very fact that the answer and follow-up question alluded to using material from that lab in a biological attack shows that the pathogens in that lab can be weaponized.  Further, we know that biological weapons of mass destruction were proposed to the U.N. way back in 2002 by then-Secretary of State Colin Powell as an excuse for invading Iraq.  So, the admission that there is a biological research lab that has material that could be used as bioweapons could easily be used as an excuse by Russia for invading Ukraine.  However, it cannot be used as justification for the war crime of Russia's bombing a maternity hospital or other atrocities that are already taking place.

The Lancet Paper Adverse Events are not Insignificant.  [Scroll down]  The Lancet paper documents the percent of severe adverse events (6.6%), compared to non-severe adverse events (92.1%).  BTW — death was a separate category determined to be around 1.3% of all adverse events.  So, what does this mean?  A severe event ratio (including death) of 7.9% of all reported adverse events is high — very high!  That means that about 1 in 13 people has a severe adverse event out of all adverse events reported, as defined by the VAERS system (quote from the Lancet paper [...]):  "VAERS reports were classified as serious if any of the following outcomes were documented:  inpatient hospitalisation, prolongation of hospitalisation, permanent disability, life-threatening illness, congenital anomaly or birth defect, or death."  One out of every eight reported adverse events were classified as serious!  But "somehow" what the Medscape Headline concludes is that the side effects are "mild and short."  This is just not accurate.

New York Times Beclowns Itself with COVID Doublespeak.  Does anyone take the New York Times seriously anymore?  Because if anyone does, I got a real doozy for you.  Wednesday's "The Morning" newsletter ran a piece asking "Do Covid Precautions Work?" and then answered the question in the subtitle "Yes, but they haven't made a big difference."  [Tweet]  So, they work ... but they don't.  Let's be honest here.  The answer is no.  The New York Times knows the answer was no.  But the New York Times being the New York Times didn't want to say that COVID precautions didn't work.  Why not?  Probably because they're worried about getting banned by Facebook or something, so they had to go through the awkward contortion of acknowledging that the data says masking and social distancing and whatnot didn't significantly change the trajectory of the pandemic, while also saying that they did.

Austria suspends COVID vaccine mandate for adults because the coercion wasn't working.  Austria has suspended a controversial law requiring adults in the country to be injected with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine.  Officials argued that the law would infringe on fundamental rights had its implementation was not stopped.  Austrian Minister for the European Union and the Constitution Karoline Edtstadler told reporters during a March 9 press conference that the law represents "an encroachment of fundamental rights" that can no longer be justified.  Thus, the law will no longer take effect — contrary to Vienna's earlier assertion that the controversial measure will take effect by the middle of the month.  "After consultations with the Health Minister [Wolfgang Mueckstein], we have decided that we will, of course, follow what the [expert] commission has said.  We see no need to actually implement this compulsory vaccination due to the [B11529 omicron] variant that we are predominantly experiencing here," she said.

Biden Bars Tennis Star Novak Djokovic From Entering US Over Vaccine Status, While 2 Million Illegal Immigrants Enter Without Proof of Vax.  Tennis star Novak Djokovic has already announced he is willing to sacrifice his career in favor of not getting a Covid vaccine.  After missing out on the Australian Open due to his vaccination status, the 34-year-old tennis legend has announced he will also be unable to participate in the upcoming U.S. tournaments because the Biden regime won't permit him to travel to the United States. [...] Djokovic has made it very clear that he will not be getting the Covid vaccine, although it may mean he is forced to miss both the French Open and Wimbledon.  It is worth mentioning the hypocrisy of all this Covid theater, given that over 2 million illegal immigrants have been let into the U.S. since last year without having to present so much as an ID, let alone a vaccine card.

Massachusetts to Reduce 'Significant Overcount' of COVID-19 Deaths.  The Massachusetts Public Health Department announced Thursday that the state would lower its COVID-19 death count by 3,700 due to new measuring criteria being implemented.  The department said in a statement the new death definition is following the guidance (pdf) of the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to create a standardized approach for states to count COVID-19 deaths.  "Our approach proved to be too expansive and led to a significant overcount of deaths in Massachusetts," Public Health Commissioner Margret Cooke told the State House News Service.

Forget About Covid, They Say.  Rationality is back!  In that sense, it's good to forget about Covid if it means living life normally and behaving with clarity about what does and does not work to mitigate a virus.  The Democrats decided that the hyper-restrictionist ways were risking political fortunes.  Hence, the line and the talking points needed to change.  Another way to get over Covid is to forget completely about the last two years, especially the astonishing failures of compulsory pandemic controls.  Forget about the school closures that cost a generation two years of learning.  Forget that the hospitals were largely closed to people without a Covid-related malady.  Forget about the preventable nursing-home deaths.  Forget that dentistry was practically abolished for a few months, or that one could not even get a haircut.  Forget the stay-at-home orders, the church and business closures, the playground and gym closures, the bankruptcies, the travel restrictions, the firings, the crazed advice for everyone to mask up and physically separate, the record drug-related deaths, the mass depression, the segregation, the brutalization of small business, the labor-force dropouts, the forced stoppages of art and culture, and the capacity limits on venues that forced weddings and funerals to be on Zoom.  Forget about a closer look at the bogus mathematical models, vaccine trials, the circumstances behind the Emergency Use Authorizations, the adverse effects, the inaccuracies of the PCR test, and misclassification of deaths, the billions and trillions of misdirected funds, the division of all workers between essential and nonessential, and the millions who were forced to get jabs they did not want.

Do not trust Biden's COVID home tests.  Like many others, I worked hard to get a big supply of rapid COVID home test kits, mostly free from my county and the federal government.  But so far, I have not used any because neither my wife nor I have had any symptoms.  But millions of Americans surely fell into the trap of thinking it wise to use the tests regularly to feel safe after a negative result.  This is what we should understand:  Testing millions of healthy people on a large-scale basis won't help anyone.  These home tests have not effectively stopped COVID transmission and deaths.  Many millions of these rapid antigen tests, at a cost of billions of dollars, are now in most American homes.  The federal government and many local organizations have been making them available without charge.  But newly published research from the U.K. sheds a very dark shadow on their usefulness.

As TSA Extends Mask Mandate, Rand Paul Vows To Force Vote To Scrap It.  After the TSA announced Thursday that it will extend the mask mandate on public transportation and inside transportation hubs, Senator Rand Paul promised to force a vote to end it urging "we're about two years past anyone believing the masks work."  A TSA official told the media that it is leaving the mask mandate in place until at least April 18th, saying it is "at CDC's recommendation."  "CDC will work with government agencies to help inform a revised policy framework for when, and under what circumstances, masks should be required in the public transportation corridor," the official also noted, adding "This revised framework will be based on the COVID-19 community levels, risk of new variants, national data, and the latest science."  All U.S. states apart from Hawaii, which will end theirs later this month, have already ended mask mandates, yet the Biden administration wants to extend federal mandates for planes and trains.

Mask mandates don't work, so they will be extended.  Mask mandates on public transport have been extended for another month even though they don't work[.]  The CDC has directed the TSA to extend the public transportation mask mandate for another 30 days until April 18 according to this CNN article. [...] Here is the science behind this decision, a list of studies showing that transmission on public transportation is a major component of viral spread and showing that face masks effectively mediate that risk:

In fact, if you have to be indoors, being on board a commercial jet is probably one of the safest places you can be because the recycled air is filtered with HEPA filters, the cabin air is recycled every 3 minutes, and there is a high portion of outside air mixed in the filtered inside air.

Latest flu vaccine was ineffective during the 2021-2022 season.  The flu shot used during the 2021 to 2022 virus season was a poor match and did little to prevent circulation, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report finds.  Researchers found that the vaccine only reduced the number of mild influenza by 16 percent, which they do not consider statistically significant.  The flu strain that struck America this year was of the H3N2 strain, one of the more dangerous versions of the virus, and the shot was not tailored to the specific version of the virus that ended up emerging.

Project Veritas Documents Destroy Fauci:  Ivermectin Works And Gov't Hid Life-Saving Truth.  Military documents state that EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018 seeking funding to conduct gain of function research of bat borne coronaviruses.  The proposal, named Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA over safety concerns and the notion that it violates the gain of function research moratorium.  The main report regarding the EcoHealth Alliance proposal leaked on the internet a couple of months ago, it has remained unverified until now.  Project Veritas has obtained a separate report to the Inspector General of the Department of Defense, written by U.S. Marine Corp Major, Joseph Murphy, a former DARPA Fellow.

Three Reasons Why Trump Shouldn't Run for President in 2024.  [Scroll down]  Time can only illuminate how wrong the government's "health experts" have been about everything when it comes to COVID.  We shut down the country over a disease that we knew, almost immediately, only severely affected the very old and immunocompromised.  Donald Trump supported the national shutdown to flatten the curve.  Then he shut everything down until Easter of 2020, opening the door to a level of tyranny that has never before been seen in America.  Trump had supported the lockdowns, then the masks, then the vaccines, and then the boosters.  Here the truth that Republicans can, should, and will run on in 2022 and 2024.  Masks don't work, and have never worked.  There's not a single place on the planet where they have.  The vaccines may be efficacious in preventing hospitalization or death, but they do not prevent infection or transmission as was promised.  And boosters?  They've proven so obviously ineffective that they're rarely mentioned anymore, even by the most zealous of the Fauci faithful.

United Airlines to Let Workers Who Didn't Get COVID-19 Vaccine Return to Work.  United Airlines plans to let workers who declined to get a COVID-19 vaccine return to work, according to a missive obtained by The Epoch Times.  Unvaccinated employees can return to their positions on March 28, according to the memorandum, which was sent to workers on Thursday morning [3/10/2022].  Kirk Limacher, vice president of human resources at United, said the change was due to the plunge in COVID-19 cases and COVID-19-related hospitalizations across the country in recent weeks.  Many states and cities are lifting COVID-19 restrictions, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dramatically eased its masking guidance, he noted.  "These changes suggest that the pandemic is beginning to meaningfully recede.  As a result, we're confident we can safely begin the process of returning our RAP employees to their jobs," Limacher wrote.

Time to Stop Making the National Guard a COVID Band-Aid.  Placing National Guard medical personnel in remote hospitals to supplement medical workers is a fallacious idea if you understand how the National Guard apparatus works.  When you hear in the news how wonderful this ill conceived plan is, you need to consider the fact that all those military doctors and nurses called up are only practicing medicine with their Guard units one weekend a month.  What do they do the rest of their time?  They work full-time at civilian medical facilities like every other professional.  Medical-grade National Guardsmen militarily assigned to aid other hospitals end up subtracting their positions from their own facilities, resulting in a zero-sum outcome.

U.S. extends airplane mask mandate through April 18.  The Transportation Security Administration is extending a federal requirement that travelers wear masks on airplanes, at airports, on trains and buses through April 18, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday.  The mandate was set to expire on March 19.  An extension of the mandate comes as the Biden administration, cities and states have rolled back mask mandates and other pandemic policies elsewhere as Covid cases drop.  The shorter extension of the policy compared with previous announcements suggests President Joe Biden and the CDC are weighing whether to lift the mandate entirely this spring, if Covid cases continue to fall.

Vaccines, Masks, Staying At Home Did Not Make A Major Difference In COVID Case Rates, NYT Writer Says.  A senior writer at The New York Times said vaccinations, booster shots and masks have not caused a major difference in case rates between parts of the country with different levels of COVID-19 precautions in a Wednesday morning [3/9/2022] newsletter.  The newsletter compared COVID-19 case rates for Democratic and Republican areas, noting that Democrats were more likely to wear masks, get vaccinated and boosted, avoid public spaces and shut down in-person schools over virus fears.  "These factors seem as if they should have caused large differences in case rates.  They have not.  And that they haven't offers some clarity about the relative effectiveness of different Covid interventions," David Leonhardt wrote in the newsletter.

Parents fume after social workers interrogated San Diego toddlers over mask compliance.  The California Department of Social Services raided a chain of San Diego preschools and interrogated students as young as 2 over the preschool's compliance with the statewide mask mandate.  The students at Aspen Leaf Preschool, which has multiple locations in the city of San Diego, were grilled by state officials in January in response to a complaint that the school was not following the statewide school mask mandate.  The interviews were conducted without any parental notice or awareness.  The owner of the preschools, Howard Wu, told Fox News that the state's visit came as a surprise because the preschool had made no secret of its policy to allow young students to attend the school without wearing masks.

Florida warns teenagers may face more risk from vaccine than from Covid and tells children not to get jabbed.  The Florida Department of Health officially unveiled guidance Tuesday that recommends against vaccinating children, a rare move that breaks from federal guidelines.  Florida officials revealed that they planned to issue the guidance on Monday, during a news conference that included Surgeon General Dr Joseph Lapado, Gov Ron DeSantis and a few controversial health figures like Dr Robert Malone.  Official guidance applies to all children 17 or younger and officials cite the potential risk of myocarditis as reason for the decision.

Under Secretary Victoria Nuland Admits U.S. Funded Biological Research Labs Exist in Ukraine.  Earlier today [3/8/2022], Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Victoria Nuland, was testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (SFRC) on Russia's invasion of Ukraine.  The Senate Foreign Relations Committee is the legislative branch body who works with the executive branch State Dept to launder money through foreign nations.  The Senate is the bank, the State Dept is the collection agency.  One of the members of the SFRC is Marco Rubio, also the vice-chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI).  Keep this point at the front of your reference.  Senator Rubio has a specific intent when he asks Ms Nuland publicly about biological weapons labs in Ukraine.

Deleted Web Pages Show Obama Led an Effort To Build a Ukraine-Based BioLab Handling 'Especially Dangerous Pathogens'.  deleted web article recovered by The National Pulse reveals that former President Barack Obama spearheaded an agreement leading to the construction of biolabs handling "especially dangerous pathogens" in Ukraine.  The news comes on the same day that Biden regime apparatchik Victoria Nuland told the U.S. Senate that the American government is concerned about biological research facilities falling into Russian hands as a result of the ongoing conflict in Eastern Europe.  Originally posted on June 18th, 2010, the article "Biolab Opens in Ukraine" details how Obama, while serving as an Illinois Senator, helped negotiate a deal to build a level-3 bio-safety lab in the Ukrainian city of Odessa.

All Along the Watchtower.  Before I was de-platformed by Twitter for posting the famously accurate Canadian COVID Care Alliance video, before I was de-platformed by LinkedIn for the same reason, before the infamous Joe Rogan hit #1757 where I said the three little words "mass formation psychosis" that caused the Silicon Valley overlords to loose bladder control, many feared that I was "controlled opposition".  And for good reason.  I have spent most of my career deeply involved in the US Biodefense enterprise.  I have worked closely with biodefense research teams at USAMRIID, DTRA, and MIT Lincoln Lab. [...] This is a byzantine world that I have deep understanding of, and direct experience with for virtually my entire life.  I lived by the mantra which all DC bureaucrats know — keep your head down, because if they cannot see you, they cannot shoot you.  But I never really allowed myself to confront the possibility that we might not be the good guys, the white hats.  Until I experienced what we have all been through over the last two years.  A government (or really multiple governments) that clearly believes that it is justified in disregarding fundamental principles of bioethics and the common rule.  And like many others, once I saw that, it was like having backed into a light switch and suddenly the entire room was lit up, and I could never un-see what was revealed.

9 Things to Know About Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, Who Rejects COVID-19 Shots for Healthy Children.  Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo is drawing national attention after announcing Monday that his state will officially recommend that health officials not give COVID-19 vaccinations to healthy children.  White House press secretary Jen Psaki responded by criticizing Ladapo for going against Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance, saying:  "It's deeply disturbing that there are politicians peddling conspiracy theories out there and casting doubt on vaccinations when it is our best tool against the virus and best tool to prevent even teenagers from being hospitalized."  Ladapo, a physician and secretary of the Florida Department of Health, said that Florida would become the first state in the country to make such a recommendation against the COVID-19 mandates for children set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  In addition to his vaccination guidance, Ladapo has stirred controversy for his stance on masks.

Navy Refuses to Deploy Warship While Commander Remains Unvaccinated.  U.S. Navy officials have said a warship can't be deployed because its commander has refused the COVID-19 vaccine.  The service said an East Coast guided-missile destroyer is "out of commission" after a Florida federal judge ruled that the Navy and Marine Corps cannot remove its officer for being unvaccinated against COVID-19.  The warship now remains docked in Norfolk, Virginia.  It comes after U.S. District Judge Steven Merryday, a George H. W. Bush nominee, ruled on Feb. 2 to bar Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and all other military officials from taking punitive action against the unnamed Navy officer, who sought religious exemptions to the military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  Merryday wrote that the Navy's rejection failed to note that the branch has separately granted hundreds of medical exemptions to the COVID-19 vaccine mandate[.]

Health Officials Relied Too Heavily on Vaccines as 'Cure-All,' CDC Director Says.  Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), became the latest prominent official to contradict key aspects of the official COVID-19 narrative of the past two years.  In a March 3 appearance at Washington University in St.  Louis, Missouri, Walensky was interviewed by Dr. William G. Powderly, co-director of the institution's Division of Infectious Diseases.  During the interview, Walensky said she learned COVID vaccines were effective from watching CNN. She also admitted health officials relied too heavily on vaccines as a "cure-all" of sorts for COVID, and said vaccine makers didn't warn the agency that the vaccines would be less effective against potential variants.  She also admitted that the science, far from being "settled," is "gray" instead of "black and white."

Ivermectin Prophylaxis Used for COVID-19: A Citywide, Prospective, Observational Study of 223,128 Subjects.  Ivermectin has demonstrated different mechanisms of action that potentially protect from both coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and COVID-19-related comorbidities.  Based on the studies suggesting efficacy in prophylaxis combined with the known safety profile of ivermectin, a citywide prevention program using ivermectin for COVID-19 was implemented in Itajaí, a southern city in Brazil in the state of Santa Catarina.  The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of regular ivermectin use on subsequent COVID-19 infection and mortality rates.

'Half The Country' Did Speak The Covid Truths The CDC Director Insists 'Nobody Said' — And They Were Smeared.  Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, should be eating crow these days but is instead deflecting from her agency's litany of Covid failures.  In keeping with her track record of getting things wrong, she got them woefully wrong again — this time, not with regard to Covid but with regard to the people who disagree with her expert guidance.  During a visit to the Washington University School of Medicine on Thursday, Walensky threw a one-two punch at her critics, but it didn't quite land.  It instead only broadcast more elitist hubris and reinforced why federal health bureaucrats haven't retained a shred of credibility.

Rochelle Walensky Tries Erasing the Last 24 Months With These Statements.  Not only has the Covid narrative been shifting in real-time, but the mindless herd has followed every step of the way without questioning the sudden reversal.  Yet somehow, they are still okay with contradictory messaging around masks.  Joe Biden doesn't need one at his State of the Union, but you do in school?  The Super Bowl attendees didn't need one, but you do in blue cities?  We are being told to forget about Covid, but accept vaccine mandates for employment?  It's all stupid and it's getting really stupid considering the conversation has shifted in record time.  It cannot be overstated that just three months ago, Joe Biden and the entire collusive amalgamation of pharma-government interests were on the warpath to vaccinate every last man, woman, and child.  Joe Biden fear mongered with his dark and deadly winter.  The Biden administration ensured Big Tech silenced anyone challenging the party message and companies all demanded their employees give into an unwanted and unnecessary vaccine.  Barely two months ago, the entire trajectory of freedom was on the line when the Supreme Court heard arguments for a federal vaccine mandate.

The COVID Vaccine is a Civil Rights Issue.  Though receipt of the so-called vaccination is not a law, but only a mandate, there are those who treat it as a sacrosanct law with dire consequences for noncompliance. [...] [P]eople who refuse to be vaccinated endure public humiliation and are treated like social outcasts.  Children have had irrevocable emotional harm done to them.  They have also been denied a full-bodied education.  Verbal abuse and physical assaults occur.  The unvaccinated are snitched on.  Barring people from their livelihood and depriving them of participating in other social, communal, and public activities are just a few of the injustices being committed, all in the name of the public good.

Dr. Robert Malone:  The CDC hid covid data and committed massive scientific fraud.  The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has admitted that large portions of data about the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) are not being published because the world might "misinterpret" them.  And Dr. Robert Malone is warning that this amounts to fraud.  It has been almost two full years since the plandemic was first launched, and only a "tiny fraction" of the data collected by the CDC has been released for public consumption.  It was The New York Times, of all sources, that ran a big story on this, revealing that much of the withheld information could have been used by state and local officials to get the virus under control.  "The CDC is a political organization as much as it is a public health organization," said Samuel Scarpino, the managing director of pathogen surveillance at the Rockefeller Foundation's Pandemic Prevention Institute.

Did the Director of the CDC Admit She Gets Her Science From CNN?  At this point, taking the scientific establishment seriously has become a difficult thing to do.  It's clear that many of them have been co-opted by people more interested in pushing a political perspective through the veneer of science than actually following it.  It only makes one want to further distance oneself from these institutions when calling them wrong about something very obvious is labeled as "misinformation" and used to censor and silence you.  But moreover, the people in charge of "the science" are increasingly proven to be corrupt and/or wildly incompetent.

Seattle teachers union demands that children be forced to wear masks in school until May.  Despite an order from the Washington state governor lifting mask requirements, Seattle school kids may still have to wear face coverings until spring because the teachers union says they 'bring normalcy' to the classroom.  'Future decisions on mask use within the district will be made in partnership with public health, and its implementation will be established after consultation and mutually agreed upon guidelines that are reached through bargaining with our labor partners,' according to a statement from the Seattle Public Schools.  Schools around the U.S. will soon be lifting their masks as governors and mayors ease restrictions as infection rates fall, with some notable exceptions.

Mother, 32, who became face of Chicago Teachers Union's push to keep schools closed drank herself to death, medical examiner reveals.  A Chicago mother who the teachers' union claimed died when a COVID-positive student was sent home to quarantine as they rallied for more COVID protocols actually died of alcoholism, it emerged on Monday [3/7/2022].  Denisha Henry, the 32-year-old mother of an eighth-grade student at Jensen Elementary Scholastic Academy in the East Garfield Park district of Chicago, died on September 24.  The day before, Shenitha Curry, 44, had died of pneumonia from COVID, with diabetes and hypertension as contributing factors.  She was not vaccinated.  Soon after, the Chicago Teachers' Union claimed at a rally that both mothers caught COVID from a child at the school, where 11 out of 17 classrooms were in quarantine.

As Financial Markets Crash and Ukraine Burns, There's Nowhere Left to Hide for the Biden Administration.  Then there is the resolving picture of all the mysterious puzzle pieces in the Covid-19 story.  Sunday night, America's premier propaganda vessel, CBS's 60-Minutes, ran a puff-piece on the CDC starring the warm-and-fuzzy Mom figure, Rochelle Walensky.  It is hard to overstate just how dishonest the segment was, starting with its subtle effort to keep America in a state of alarm ("new variants" coming!), proceeding to a deceptive cartoon of how the mRNA "vaccines" work wonders ("white memory cells patrol the body," no mention of spike proteins), and concluding with exhortations for Americans to continue vaxxing and boosting up — despite an avalanche of news coming from elsewhere than 60-Minutes about the CDC withholding critical information from the public it's supposed to serve throughout the two-year-plus crisis, not to mention new data from alt-media on extensive injury and death rates among the vaccinated, including shocking info from the court-ordered recent release of Pfizer's own records.  Was this 60-Minutes segment corporate media's attempt to cover up the emerging crimes of America's public health agencies in concert with Pharma and media itself?  That is, to get ahead of the story, as has lately been the strategy for all the cable channels and legacy newspapers with more and more citizens asking themselves if they have been played?  Meanwhile, the Big Kahuna of Covid-19, one Dr. Anthony Fauci, has gone-to-ground, made himself scarce, skipped the scene, vamoosed... amid all the new controversy.

Why do America's teachers want to smother America's children?  In Democrat cities across America, the word is out:  It's time for masks to go...except on children.  Teachers' unions are adamant that it's just better for those kids to keep hiding their faces.  It's a mystery to me why this is but it's clear that these people should not be allowed in classrooms because they must really dislike children.  In uber-leftist Seattle, the teachers' union wants to keep kids masked for the remainder of the school year.

"Covid theatre at its finest."
Protesters Ridiculed for 'Cringe' Rally Urging Continued Mask Mandates.  A group of parents on Wednesday took to the steps of the historic Tweed Courthouse in New York City which houses the city's Department of Education (DOE) headquarters, calling for continued mask mandates as the city begins lifting them almost two years after the coronavirus pandemic was first declared.  The group behind the "Masking for a Friend" rally, Parents for Responsive Equitable Safe Schools (PRESS-NYC), describes itself as a "parent collective" which aims to "build learning communities, write anti-racist curriculum" and "hold the DOE, the Mayor, and the education press accountable."

Everything Biden said about COVID vaccines was nonsense.  These are the points he made "First, stay protected with vaccines and treatments.  We know how incredibly effective vaccines are.  If you're vaccinated and boosted, you have the highest degree of protection. ... We will never give up on vaccinating more Americans.  Now, I know parents with kids under 5 are eager to see a vaccine authorized for their children. ... If necessary, we'll be able to deploy new vaccines within 100 days instead of many more months or years. ... And with 75% of adult Americans fully vaccinated and hospitalizations down by 77%, most Americans can remove their masks, return to work, stay in the classroom, and move forward safely."  Actual data contradicts what Biden said.  If COVID vaccines were really effective, then how can the nearly one million COVID deaths be explained with 75% percent of adults vaccinated?  The US COVID death rate is incredibly high compared to other nations.  Biden failed to acknowledge the many hundreds of thousands of Americans who have died or suffered serious illness from the COVID vaccines, not the infection.  No one who follows actual medical science and looks at the benefits and risks of vaccination would seriously question whether they or their children should get the shot.

NY Times' Theatre Critic Ditches Reviews for Mask Obsession, Fear of 'Barefaced' Audience.  New York Times' theatre critic Laura Collins-Hughes' reviews from London's West End have sadly devolved into anxious screeds about COVID and masks, those cloth talismans of liberal moral superiority that she flaunts like a Trump fan would wear a MAGA hat.  Admittedly she had bad luck in London in September 2021 upon her return to reviewing West End theatre, testing positive for the virus and having to quarantine.  Before she got her fateful results, she boasted she "was already double-masked... I was a maniac about masks."  Despite her precautions, Collins-Hughes' mandatory COVID test came back positive and she had to quarantine for 10 days.

Why we must demand that leaders who got COVID wrong admit it and apologize.  As COVID restrictions end around the country, and Democratic politicians pretend that something about the science has changed instead of their poll numbers being in the dirt, Americans must first demand:  apologies.  Here, I'll even go first.  I spent much of 2020 and 2021 writing again and again arguing for the opening of schools throughout the country.  But in March 2020, I was one of the leading voices urging schools to close.  It made no sense to me that my husband had stopped going into the office because of the mysterious new virus but my children continued to go to school.  People were dying in large numbers in Italy and I was afraid.  I never imagined that "two weeks to slow the spread" would turn into two years, and counting, of pausing the lives of children to accommodate hypochondriac adults.  I was wrong.  I'm sorry.  Now you go.

COVID Vaccines - What Happened to 'Safe and Effective'?  COVID vaccines were developed in record time, one might say at "warp speed," the name of the operation instituted by President Trump in 2020.  We were assured by those in whom we place trust that these vaccines were "safe and effective." [...] Last week, as reported by Yahoo!  Finance, the FDA released, under orders from a U.S. District Judge, 55,000 pages of clinical trial documents which Pfizer submitted to the FDA as part the approval process.  Originally the FDA wanted to suppress this data for 75 years as they had "limited resources" to prepare this data for release, yet they took approximately 75 days to review and analyze this same data before granting approval.  In the appendix is a "List of adverse events of special interest," noting 1,291 different adverse events post vaccination, running 9 pages.  There is always the issue of association versus causation, but the fact that Pfizer submitted this data to the FDA and the FDA fought to prevent its release raises red flags.  Aside from the FDA submission, there is the VAERS database which specially tracks vaccine related adverse effects.

How the federal government bought pro-Covid vax propaganda (and silenced critical voices).  Voices urging caution over the experimental mRNA shots that were relentlessly promoted throughout the media (and by the medical establishment) were confined to independent media like American Thinker until quite recently, when the evidence of adverse effects and lack of efficacy became almost impossible to ignore.  How did such media uniformity, encompassing all ideological stripes from Fox News and Newsmax to MSNBC and the Washington Post, come about?  According to reports by Chris Pandolfo in The Blaze and Emerald Robinson in Substack, taxpayers financed an unprecedented advertising campaign in virtually every major national media outlet that resulted in uniformly positive coverage of the vaccines rushed to market to combat COVID. Not just the ads themselves, but the news coverage offered by these outlets positively covered the jabs, and suppressed questions about them from skeptics.

Ivermectin: The Truth vs Goliath.  In October 2020 Dr Andrew Hill was tasked to report to the World Health Organisation on the dozens of new studies from around the world suggesting that Ivermectin could be a remarkably safe and effective treatment for COVID-19.  But on January 18th 2021, Dr Hill published his findings on a pre-print server.  His methods lacked rigour, the review was low quality and the extremely positive findings on ivermectin were contradicted by the conclusion.  In the end, Dr Hill advised that "Ivermectin should be validated in larger appropriately controlled randomized trials before the results are sufficient for review by regulatory authorities."  The researcher seeking a global recommendation on Ivermectin had instead recommended against it.  A media onslaught against the medicine ensued.  What were Dr Hill's reasons for doing so?  Were his conclusions justified?  Or were external forces influencing his about-face?

CDC quietly admits COVID-19 vaccines cause heart attacks and strokes; Big Pharma media tries to pin blame on anything else.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has quietly admitted that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines cause heart inflammation, heart attack and stroke.  Specifically, the CDC admitted that the vaccines cause myocarditis and myopericarditis.  The former occurs when the heart muscle — also known as the myocardium — becomes inflamed.  The latter occurs when both the heart muscle and the sac that surrounds the heart — known as the pericardium — become inflamed.  Myocarditis can weaken the heart's ability to pump blood and cause arrhythmias.  Severe cases of myocarditis could weaken the heart so much that it becomes unable to pump enough blood to the entire body.  This can also lead to clots forming in the heart, which can cause either strokes or heart attacks.  "Evidence from multiple safety monitoring systems in multiple countries supports the finding of an increased risk of myocarditis and myopericarditis following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination," read a CDC report titled "COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Updates," written by a member of the CDC's COVID-19 Vaccine Task Force.

COVID Vaccine Bombshells You Probably Missed.  In recent weeks, there have been several stunning revelations concerning the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines — and they are being all but ignored by a corporate media eager to change the subject.  The FDA on Tuesday [3/1/2022] released a large tranche of Pfizer clinical trials documents in response to a Freedom of Information (FOIA) request by the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency.  The documents show that the company knew people were at risk of experiencing more than 1,000 unique adverse side-effects to the mRNA injections.  Additionally, scientists last week revealed that Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine can enter human liver cells and be converted into DNA — something the fact-checkers and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control assured the public could never happen.  Scientists also recently discovered that a sequence of genetic material patented by Moderna in 2018 bears a suspicious similarity to the spike protein in Sars-Cov2.

Study: Pfizer shot makes teens 7 times more likely to suffer myocarditis.  Members of an FDA panel were worried about the risk of myocarditis when they approved the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 shot for children last fall, and now there is more cause for concern.  A new study published by JAMA Pediatrics found adolescents were seven times more likely to be hospitalized for myocarditis after receiving a second dose of the Pfizer vaccine.  The researchers in Hong Kong found an incidence of 39 cases of myocarditis per 100,000 inhabitants.  That means that for every 2,563 teens vaccinated with two doses, one was hospitalized for myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle.  The study, published Feb. 25, argued that vaccination policy "for adolescents should consider the trade-off between risks and benefits."

Tens of millions of doses [are] being trashed as demand for COVID vaccines collapses.  Coronavirus vaccines that were paid for to go into the arms of Americans are going down the drain — or into a landfill — now that many places in America have more doses than people who want them.  About 9.5 percent of the doses shipped from the federal government have been wasted, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  That amounts to about 65 million doses, according to the Associated Press.  The numbers vary by state, with nearly 1.5 million doses in Michigan, 1.45 million in North Carolina, 1 million in Illinois and almost 725,000 doses in Washington going to waste.

Surgeon General Asks Social Media Companies for Target List of COVID Skeptics and Influencers.  Dr. Vivek H. Murthy, Vice Admiral, U.S. Public Health Service Surgeon General of the United States, is married to a woman named Dr. Alice Tu Chen.  If you look into the past of the surgeon general's wife, you will discover Alice Chen is essentially a ghost — from the perspective of: who were her parents, where is her family?  The lack of early childhood, parental and familial history is a key characteristic of CCP plants in the U.S.  When the U.S. Dept of Justice recently announced they were dropping the Chinese spy initiative, a program to review how CCP officials had been working for years to seed the U.S. with Chinese operatives, indications are the DOJ motive was connected to serious internal discoveries surrounding the wife of the U.S. Surgeon General, Alice Chen.  I do not say this lightly.  Unfortunately, a tangential outcome from eliminating the FBI "China Initiative', is recognizing we now have a completely compromised U.S. Surgeon General who is a controlled mechanism for the Fourth Branch of Government to leverage.

This article is completely off-topic and I'm sure it has nothing to do with experimental "vaccines."
Shane Warne, Legendary Australian Cricketer, Dead at 52 After 'Suspected Heart Attack'.  Australian cricketer Shane Warne, considered the greatest leg-spin bowler of all time, has died after suffering a suspected heart attack at his villa in Thailand, his management company confirmed on Friday.  He was 52.  "It is with great sadness we advise that Shane Keith Warne passed away of a suspected heart attack in Koh Samui, Thailand," a statement from his management company, MPC Entertainment, reads.  "Shane was found unresponsive in his villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived," it added.

Australian Cricket Legend Shane Warne Dies Suddenly at 52 of Heart Attack After Pushing Double COVID Vaxx Last Year.  Australian cricketer Shane Warne, a legend in the sport, died suddenly at the age of 52 of a sudden heart attack on Friday [3/4/2022].  "It is with great sadness we advise that Shane Keith Warne passed away of a suspected heart attack in Koh Samui, Thailand today, Friday 4th March," MPC Entertainment, Warne's company, said in a statement.

Expert Says Fauci Responsible for Hundreds of Thousands of American Deaths by Blocking Hydroxychloroquine.  Dr. Steven Hatfill, infectious disease expert, says the medical bureaucracy blocked an effective treatment in hydroxychloroquine so they could push through experimental vaccines.  Dr. Hatfill told War Room hydroxychloroquine is proven to be effective and costs roughly 60 cents per pill.  However, the existence of a proven effective treatment would not have allowed Dr. Fauci and FDA's Janet Woodcock to expedite covid vaccines.  "You don't need a vaccine," Dr. Hatfill said.  "It's quite evident that Dr. Fauci, Dr. Woodcock, Dr. [Rick] Bright are responsible for hundreds of thousands of America deaths for causing this drug to pick up a bad name," Dr. Hatfill said.  [Video clip]

The Editor says...
Hmmm... Steven Hatfill.  Seems like I've heard of him before.

Massive Hypocrisy:  Corporate Media Celebrates Democrat Mayor's Vicious Tweets.  When leftwing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau lifted his skirt last month and revealed his fascist tendencies by cracking down on anti-authoritarianism protests, many American moderates and even some conservatives scoffed at the notion such tyranny could trickle southward.  "Not here," they said, "not in America."  Well, don't look now, but it's already started.  That didn't take long.  As was the case in Canada, the shift towards totalitarianism we're seeing in Boston is rooted in COVID.  Or to be more accurate, that shift is being justified by pointing to COVID as the bogeyman-du-jour.  Bostonians unhappy with Mayor Michelle Wu's nonsensical and oppressive COVID policies began protesting, and Wu, like all true leftists, doesn't like dissent.  And when those protesters began making their voices heard near Wu's residence, that dissent had gone too far.  Solution?  Silence the dissenters.

Restoring America:  Democrats still can't quit COVID-19 'emergency' policymaking.  Democrats want to try and put COVID-19 behind them now that everyone else in the country has moved on.  But maintaining that COVID-19 is still an "emergency" gives them an excuse to pursue unrelated policy goals, so they refuse to let go.  Senate Democrats just failed to block a GOP resolution to lift the emergency declaration from March 2020.  It passed in a 48-47 vote.  But the resolution isn't likely to pass the House, and President Joe Biden promised to veto it, calling it "a reckless and costly mistake."  Why would Biden do this after he promised COVID-19 "no longer need control our lives" at the State of the Union?  Why would he do this at a time when Democratic governors nationwide have drastically scaled back COVID-19 restrictions and mandates?  Well, it's because he wants to spend more money.

NFL Agrees With NFLPA To Sack All Its COVID-19 Protocols.  The NFL is done with COVID-19.  Well, it's done with COVID-19 protocols.  In a memo sent to all 32 clubs Thursday, the NFL announced it had agreed with the NFL Players Association to lift all protocols it had imposed and amended since March of 2020. [...] That means testing is over, regardless of vaccination status for players, coaches and staff.  That means masks are no longer required in the workplace, regardless of vaccination status.  That means signs within team facilities concerning social distancing and mask wearing can come down.  That means restrictions on weight room and lunch room capacity limits are lifted.

Why Are Covid Restrictions Coming Off?  Across America, jurisdictions are ending covid-related mandates and shutdowns.  No more masks!  No more vaccine certificates!  Get the kids back in school!  Of course I think these developments are all good; I have argued from near the beginning of the epidemic that shutdowns and mask mandates are useless and counterproductive.  But why are liberals in government now throwing in the towel?  The standard explanation is that the extreme measures taken to "combat" covid have worked, along with vaccination.  Thus, because of the great progress we have made, life can get back to normal.

Say, has anyone heard from Anthony Fauci lately?  Has anyone else noticed a strange lacuna in the COVID-19 media Force?  As though a single voice with a million appearances on national television has suddenly gone silent?  Actually, yes, someone has, but before we get there, let's take a quick peek at the media page for Dr. Anthony Fauci at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) as of this morning [3/4/2022].  Up until a couple of weeks ago, Fauci appeared to be very busy indeed.  On February 17, fifteen days ago, Fauci made three national-TV appearances — ABC, PBS, and finally on CNN in which the NIAID director opined that lifting school masking mandates was "risky."  That took place at the same moment in which Democrat executives like Gavin Newsom and Gretchen Whitmer began calling for an end to the requirement to mask children, who were at very low risk for the disease, in schools that never were shown to be vectors of transmission in the first place.  To call that timing "inconvenient" is an exercise in understatement.

DeSantis, Florida Surgeon General push bill that would protect medical workers from censorship.  Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo held a press conference Thursday to stand up for the "traditional practice of medicine."  The governor touted his fight against a range of COVID-19 mitigation tactics used widely across the nation — namely lock-downs, mask mandates, and vaccine requirements.  "People have lost their jobs over these policies," DeSantis said."People's kids have lost access to education over these policies."  He added there was more that needed to be done to protect Floridians against "threats to freedom."

New documents show US officials knew China was withholding data, trained Wuhan Institute scientists.  A legal watchdog organization has released 90 pages of communication records between the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Wuhan Institute of Virology on the subject of grants to the now-infamous laboratory.  Judicial Watch obtained the records, first obtained by Fox News Digital, via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.  The emails draw attention to records between the State Department and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), run by Dr. Anthony Fauci, that suggest U.S. officials were aware of the Chinese Communist Party withholding key information on the coronavirus before the pandemic outbreak.

As vaccine demand falls, states are left with huge stockpile.  As demand for COVID-19 vaccines collapses in many areas of the U.S., states are scrambling to use stockpiles of doses before they expire and have to be added to the millions that have already gone to waste.  From some of the least vaccinated states, like Indiana and North Dakota, to some of the most vaccinated states, like New Jersey and Vermont, public health departments are shuffling doses around in the hopes of finding providers that can use them.

Senate Republicans wield teeny-weeny twig on vaccine mandates.  The U.S. Senate, with a Republican-dominated voice of 49 to 44, passed a resolution to block Joe Biden's presidentially decreed coronavirus shot mandates for healthcare workers.  Republicans are calling it a victory.  But it's not.  Not really.  Neither the Democrat-led House nor the White House support it, and it won't pass.  But that shouldn't matter.  It shouldn't matter because Republicans in the Senate, if they wanted, if they so chose, if they truly believed in the constitutionally disgusting idea of government forcing an untested-for-long-term-safety-and-efficacy shot into the arms of 17 million or so health care workers — if they honestly wanted to put a stop to the madness and executive overreach — they could.

The Pandemic is Over for the Unvaccinated, Not so for the Boosted.  A new UKHSA Report for Week 9 is out.  Congratulations are in order:  the pandemic among the unvaccinated Brits is just about over.  Only 394 vaccine-free persons died in weeks 5-8, compared to 3,527 vaccinated deaths.  This means that vaccine-free Brits comprised only exactly 10% of all Covid deaths during weeks 5-8.  Comparing current weeks 5-8 to weeks 1-4: Unvaccinated deaths went down from 1,007 deaths in week 1-4, to just 394 deaths in weeks 5-8 — a drop of 61%.  However, for the same periods, boosted deaths went from 2,585 in Weeks 1-4, to 2,704 in Weeks 5-8 — an INCREASE of 5%.

The federal government paid hundreds of media companies to advertise the COVID-19 vaccines while those same outlets provided positive coverage of the vaccines.  In response to a FOIA request filed by TheBlaze, HHS revealed that it purchased advertising from major news networks including ABC, CBS, and NBC, as well as cable TV news stations Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, legacy media publications including the New York Post, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post, digital media companies like BuzzFeed News and Newsmax, and hundreds of local newspapers and TV stations.  These outlets were collectively responsible for publishing countless articles and video segments regarding the vaccine that were nearly uniformly positive about the vaccine in terms of both its efficacy and safety.  Hundreds of news organizations were paid by the federal government to advertise for the vaccines as part of a "comprehensive media campaign," according to documents TheBlaze obtained from the Department of Health and Human Services.

The surgeon general calls on Big Tech to turn over Covid-19 misinformation data.  President Biden's surgeon general on Thursday [3/3/2022] formally requested that the major tech platforms submit information about the scale of Covid-19 misinformation on social networks, search engines, crowdsourced platforms, e-commerce platforms and instant messaging systems.  A request for information from the surgeon general's office demanded that tech platforms send data and analysis on the prevalence of Covid-19 misinformation on their sites, starting with common examples of vaccine misinformation documented by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  The notice asks the companies to submit "exactly how many users saw or may have been exposed to instances of Covid-19 misinformation," as well as aggregate data on demographics that may have been disproportionately exposed to or affected by the misinformation.

Twitter suspends John Solomon's account for story on peer-reviewed COVID study.  Twitter on Thursday [3/3/2022] suspended the account of Just the News CEO and Editor John Solomon for tweeting a story about a peer-reviewed study on COVID vaccines published in a respected medical journal by a research university that has worked with the both National Institutes of Health and the World Health Organization.  The platform claimed the story was "violating the policy on spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to COVID-19" even though the story quoted federal agencies' context for the issue raised by the story.

Speech Therapy Shows the Difficult Tradeoffs of Wearing Masks.  Americans have been arguing about pandemic restrictions for two years, and the debate is particularly fraught among parents of small children, for good reasons.  While measures such as masking and isolation mean temporary discomfort or inconvenience for most people, their consequences for still-developing young children are more mysterious, and possibly more significant and lasting.  Children with speech or language disorders offer perhaps the clearest example of these murky trade-offs.  Pandemic restrictions vary by state, county, and school district, but I spoke with parents in California, New York, Massachusetts, Washington, New Jersey, Iowa, and Maryland who said their children's speech therapy has been disrupted — first by the loss of in-person therapy and then by masking requirements, in places that have them.

Science [is] officially changing:  Federal agencies [are] dropping mask mandates.  So far, Reuters reports, the science has only officially changed at the Department of Justice and at the Pentagon.  Expect it to change across the entire executive branch quickly, even if still behind Congress' unmasking for the State of the Union speech — and of course, nearly every other state in the country except Hawaii.  The White House quietly changed its directive late on Monday [2/28/2022] to remove mask mandates in low-hospitalization areas.

Senate votes to ditch vaccine mandates on health workers.  The Senate voted Wednesday [3/2/2022] to get rid of President Biden's vaccine mandate on health workers at places that receive federal funding in a political messaging move ahead of the midterm elections.  Senators voted 49-44 for the disapproval resolution, which would use the Congressional Review Act to eliminate the mandate.  "I thank my Senate colleagues for joining me in voting to END the CMS vaccine mandate," Rep. Roger Marshall, Kansas Republican, tweeted, referring to the agency that controls Medicare and Medicaid funding.  "I hope my colleagues in the House join us as well in voting to save thousands of healthcare jobs we simply can't afford to lose."

Gov DeSantis Tells College Students Wearing Masks to Stop With the Covid Theatre.  An exacerbated Ron DeSantis to USF students:  "You do not have to wear those masks.  Please take them off.  Honestly, it's not doing anything.  We've gotta stop with this Covid theater.  So if you wanna wear it, fine, but this is ridiculous."  [Video clip]

NYC private schools worry students will be teased over choice to wear masks.  With the end of school mask mandates around the corner, the city's elite private schools are warning students not to question or tease classmates over their face covering choices.  Private schools introduced an optional mask policy for staffers and students Wednesday after Gov. Kathy Hochul officially scrapped the requirement.  "Everything is so polarized and political these days," said a parent at Manhattan's Spence School.  "There is more to this than just wearing or not wearing a mask.  It's seen as a reflection of the student and the parents' views overall."  Some administrators are getting in front of the issue and asking parents to talk to their kids about respecting their classmates' mask choices.

Another ballyhooed COVID-19 shot bites the dust.  The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine that was supposed to protect kids ages 5 to 11 from catching the virus with a 68% efficacy rate has now been outed as nearly ineffective.  Its efficacy rate is actually only, get this, 12%.  Another day, another one bites the dust.  The running theme here with all of these coronavirus vaccines is that they're increasingly failing to deliver as promised.  Their efficacy rates are dropping like flies.

'Follow the science': As Year 3 of the pandemic begins, a simple slogan becomes a political weapon.  Two years ago, when science writer Faye Flam launched a podcast to explore why so many Americans were drawn to misinformation about the coronavirus pandemic, she settled on a name she figured would steer clear of politics:  "Follow the Science."  The podcast flourished, but its title has posed a constant dilemma for Flam as the phrase "follow the science," far from uniting Americans, became a weapon, wielded in derision by both sides of the national divide over how to confront the coronavirus.  Like so many Americans, when Flam hears "follow the science" these days, she braces for a statement likely to be anything but scientific:  "The phrase became associated with safety-ism and overcaution, like people would use it sarcastically when they saw someone running through a field wearing an N95 mask," she said.  At the same time, "follow the science" also became a taunt deployed by vaccine and mask advocates against those who spurned such mandatory public health measures.

Official data:  Fully vaccinated people account for 9 of 10 COVID deaths.  The fully vaccinated account for 9 of every 10 deaths from COVID-19 in England and 4 of 5 deaths among the triple-vaccinated, according to the latest data published by the U.K. Health Security Agency.  The independent British news site The Exposé reported the government report, published Feb. 22, includes a table on page 41 confirming the vast majority of deaths were among the vaccinated.  About 73.5% of the population of England has been fully vaccinated, and 56.9% have received a booster shot, as of Feb. 28.

Biden's Dangerous Public Use of Classified Intel on Russia.  I sure would not want to be in Russia spying for America with Joe Biden as U.S. president.  In the lead-up to Vladimir Putin's unprovoked invasion of the sovereign neighbor nation of Ukraine, Biden and his aides repeatedly revealed and discussed in public highly-detailed, classified intelligence reports and declassified photos about the Russian leader's invasion plans clearly obtained by clandestine sources.  Biden was unusually specific — and accurate — in predicting the Russian invasion "in coming days" despite vigorous denials from Moscow.  Fortuitously for Biden, such revelations also provided a compelling distraction from his political troubles at home — frightening inflation, the lingering pandemic, a legislative agenda stalled by his own party.

FDA Warns of Possible False Results From Some COVID-19 Tests.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Tuesday [3/1/2022] said that three rapid COVID-19 tests should not be used because of the potential for producing false results.  The FDA told people to stop using the Celltrion DiaTrust COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test, the SD Biosensor Inc.  STANDARD Q COVID-19 Ag Home Test, and the Flowflex SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test (Self-Testing).  "The FDA is concerned about the risk of false results when using" those tests, according to the agency.  These tests have "not been authorized, cleared or approved by the FDA for distribution or use in the United States," the agency added.

The Truth Is Coming Out About COVID Deaths.  Early on in the COVID pandemic, people suspected that the deaths attributed to the infection were exaggerated.  There was plenty of evidence for this.  For starters, hospitals were instructed and incentivized to mark any patient who had a positive COVID test and subsequently died within a certain time period as a COVID death.  At the same time, we knew that the PCR test was unreliable, producing inordinate amounts of false positives.  Now, the truth is finally starting to come out and, as suspected, the actual death toll is vastly lower than we were led to believe.  In the video above, Dr. John Campbell reviews recent data released by the U.K. government in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.  They show that the number of deaths during 2020 in England and Wales, where COVID-19 was the sole cause of death, was 9,400.  Of those, 7,851 were aged 65 and older.  The median age of death was 81.5 years.

The Editor says...
The current life expectancy for U.K. in 2022 is 81.65 years; therefore it is reasonable to state that Covid-19 had no effect on life expectancy in England.  This is not the result one would expect if Covid was the terrible disease we were led to believe it was.

Top 10 ways Biden deluded himself during his State of the Union.  [For example,] Gaslighting us on the pandemic:  "Let's stop looking at COVID as a partisan dividing line," said the president who has done nothing but manipulate COVID fear for political purposes, and changed tune only after opinion polls on his handling of the pandemic headed south.

Is Covid Policy Comedy, Tragedy, or Both?  The Saturday Night Live skit on Covid policy is a welcome relief, a cultural sign that rationality has started to return.  Yes, the segment is truly hilarious.  And it reveals so much about the present moment in which even highly politicized elites are realizing that the dissidents in the Covid wars had it right all along.  [Video clip]  At the same time, the skit speaks to a deeper truth about the last two years.  For many in the professional Zoom class, the entire occasion tragically became an opportunity for signaling virtue, pontificating about politics, and tightening alliances with their class compatriots, even as billions around the world suffered at the hands of overlords who massively neglected the lessons of traditional public health in favor of a wild experiment in pointless compulsion.  They shut down the "economy" (two weeks turned into two years) but for people in a certain class and age group, it was a welcome relief from the burdens of going to the office.  The value of seeming to be part of a grand political mission outweighed the cost of not going out to eat.  The lack of empathy for the workers who had no such luxury, church goers locked out of their houses of worship, and kids torn from their peers, to say nothing of millions who fell into poverty — and we could go on — was truly startling.

Wash. Gov. Jay Inslee Won't Give Up Authoritarian COVID Emergency Powers Because ... Trump.  The Governor of Washington refuses to give up the COVID-19 emergency powers he's clung to for two years despite several appeals by Republicans and, lately, Democrats.  And the reason he refuses to relinquish that extraordinary power is that Donald Trump is living rent-free in his mind.  Republicans and others have demanded he give up his emergency powers and resume regular order with old-fashioned checks and balances.  Even though Democrats dominate both houses, Inslee has refused.

The Democrats now prove there never was any science behind their mandates.  Only months and years after most Republican Party governors and politicians had lifted or halted all mandates requiring masks or COVID shots or social distancing, in the past week Democrats in numerous places have suddenly decided that masks and COVID shots and social distancing have suddenly become unnecessary or ineffective, and have canceled almost all their government-edicts mandating such things.  [Links to announcements]  Simultaneously, the CDC late last week finally loosened its mask recommendations, no longer demanding that Americans wear masks indoors or in many other circumstances.  What none of these announcements mentioned was any evidence of any new scientific results to justify the new recommendations or the loosening of mandates.  These changes were based — not on new scientific results — but on the fear-based opinions of politicians and health bureaucrats who for the past two years have consistently based their edicts and mandates solely on emotions and politics, not scientific evidence, and were repeatedly wrong every single time.

After All Those Draconian Measures, Look Who's Got COVID.  The tyranny we've seen inflicted in the name of COVID on citizens around the world has been both widespread and disturbing.  In China, where the pandemic originated, the communist government set the bar for authoritarianism by welding shut the doors of apartment buildings.  We've seen vaccine passports in countries as varied as Switzerland and Thailand.  And of course, vaccine and mask mandates in the US, Canada, and elsewhere have stirred outrage among the populace.  But when it comes to prolonged and persistent autocracy, Australia has been a global leader.  And wouldn't you know it?  We found out yesterday that Australia's Prime Minister, the Honorable Scott Morrison, has tested positive for COVID.

Indiana High School Teacher Caught On Camera Assaulting A Student For Not Wearing His Mask In The Hallway.  An Indiana high school teacher has been fired after a video shows him slapping a student in a hallway, WBND reported.  Jimtown High School teacher Mike Hosinski hit the student during a confrontation on Feb. 25 about a hooded sweatshirt the student was wearing in class, according to a release from Baugo Community Schools in Elkhart.  The district released surveillance video that shows the teacher grabbing the student by the backpack and pushing the student against the wall.  [Video clip]

The Experts, Science, Medicine — All Amazing, All Fallible.  Only three months into 2020, just when science and medicine were at the apogee of their evolution, when practically every body part — retina, heart, lung, knee, hip, skin, fingers, et al. — can be replaced, when the fastest-growing segment of our population is between 90 and 100, and when there are more individuals over 100 in America than ever before, along comes a virus from China that in a matter of weeks shuts down the world!  But not to worry!  We in America have "experts" to rely on, to guide us, to reassure us that it would only take a matter of weeks to "flatten the curve" on the frightening escalation of what, in no time, the same experts labeled a genuine pandemic.  As it turned out, every one of their models and projections and pronouncements and reassurances were wrong!

US Government Advises People To Stay Six Feet Apart During Potential Nuclear Attack.  The U.S. government has been advising Americans to social distance during a possible nuclear attack, according to a bulletin last updated Feb. 25, 2022.  As part of the bulletin's warning, individuals are told to get inside to the nearest building to avoid radiation and remove contaminated clothing that could have come in contact with debris when the fallout from the attack occurred.  "Go to the basement or middle of the building," the government advises.  "Stay away from the outer walls and roofs.  Try to maintain a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who are not part of your household.  If possible, wear a mask if you're sheltering with people who are not a part of your household."

COVID's Worst Victim:  America's Trust.  Today, Americans are grieving — their trust in great institutions has died.  Americans have lost faith in Washington; in federal medical bureaucracies like the CDC, FDA, and NIH; in legal institutions including the FBI and DOJ, and in school systems from K-12 through universities.  Science itself has been called into question.  Politicians and bureaucrat-M.D.s claim they "follow the science," but real scientists, clinical physicians, and policy experts say that what Washington follows isn't science at all.

140 million Americans have had coronavirus, according to blood tests analyzed by CDC.  More than 140 million Americans have had the coronavirus, according to estimates from blood tests that reveal antibodies from infection — about double the rate regularly cited by national case counts.  The estimates, compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, show that about 43 percent of the country has been infected by the virus.  The study shows that the majority of children have also been infected.  The data goes through late January, when the omicron variant of the coronavirus was causing more than 500,000 cases a day, meaning the number of Americans now infected is considerably higher.  The data comes from 72,000 blood samples taken in January.

7 Major Failures of the Biden Presidency.  [#4] Authoritarian COVID-19 Mandates:  Remember when Biden said he would shut down the COVID-19 virus and not the economy?  Well, most Americans now believe that COVID-19 is here to stay no matter what we do.  This after Biden reached beyond the powers of his office to force Americans to get vaccinated and tell states to enforce the most stringent mask mandates.  Biden tried to force private employers and other organizations with over 100 or more employees to enforce a vaccine mandate, despite saying that he didn't think it was exactly constitutional.  The Supreme Court agreed, and struck down the executive order in January.

COVID-19 Data Shows It's Time for America to Return to Normal.  President Joe Biden's State of the Union address on March 1 offers a unique opportunity to break with past pandemic policies and announce that we are moving on from COVID-19.  The public policy response to the pandemic has so far depended on nonpharmaceutical interventions and vaccines.  These policies appear to have reached the limits of their utility.  Federal public health officials urged lockdowns, mask mandates, school closures, and other restrictive policies in hopes of slowing the contagion's spread until a vaccine arrived.  By last July, Biden — who had campaigned on promising to "shut down" the virus — announced that vaccines had brought us "closer than ever to declaring our independence from a deadly virus."

Politicians, Activists Argue Democrats' Flip Flop On Mask Mandates is Motivated by 'Political Science' and Electoral Ambitions.  As Democrats change tune on mask mandates, education activists argue the policy shift is based on "political science" motivations rather than scientific evidence.  Democrat politicians' change in tune regarding mask mandates is an attempt to help their case politically, Fight for Schools Executive Director and America First Legal Senior Adviser Ian Prior told the Daily Caller News Foundation.  "When far left politicians and their legacy media allies talked about following the data and science, what they really meant was following the polling data and the political science," Prior said.  "Parents are not going to fall for this kind of gaslighting, now or ever."

America's Lethal Dose Of Quack Science.  You can only feed the public so much scientific quackery before its societal seams crack.  Increasing depressions, rising suicides, elevated crime, shuttered businesses, denuded shelves, inflation, shortages, and broken relations are the result of a tapestry of stained science woven by lunatic politicians.  You might think if anyone follows the science it would be the FDA.  After all, they are the guardians of our health.  Not so much.  Here's an example.  Remember when Pfizer said their vaccine was 95% effective?  Reaching that impressive number required a very "unscientific" sleight of hand.

A Kennedy's Crusade Against Covid Vaccines Anguishes Family and Friends.  Nearly 60 years after Bobby took his sister along for the excursions into the woods, the son and namesake of Robert F. Kennedy, the New York senator, attorney general and Democratic presidential candidate assassinated on June 5, 1968, has become an unimaginably polarizing figure in this tight-knit political family.  Once a top environmental lawyer who led the charge to clean up the Hudson River in New York, the third eldest child of Robert and Ethel Kennedy has emerged as a leading voice in the campaign to discredit coronavirus vaccines and other measures being advanced by the Biden White House to battle a pandemic that was, near the end of February, killing close to 1,900 people a day.  "The minute they hand you that vaccine passport, every right that you have is transformed into a privilege contingent upon your obedience to arbitrary government dictates," he told a cheering crowd at a rally against vaccine mandates in Washington last month.  "It will make you a slave."

Cloth masks allow 90% of particles to filter through giving them little ability to prevent COVID transmission, study finds.  Cloth masks do little to prevent the spread of COVID-19, or other airborne diseases, a new study finds.  Researchers from the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom found that 90 percent of particles could get through cloth masks, making them effectively useless during the pandemic.  Cloth masks have been popular in the U.S., as they are easily reusable after washing and at some points were the most accessible due to shortages and high prices for surgical or N95 masks.  Now, though, experts have discovered that these masks were doing little if anything to actually stop the spread of the virus, and likely contributed to spread as people who believed they were acting safely were not doing so.

The No Patient Left Alone Act.  Whereas, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused great uncertainty and anxiety across our State and has significantly affected patients and residents in health care facilities; and Whereas, health care facilities have made many efforts to keep patients and employees in a safe environment and have endeavored to minimize, to the extent possible, the risk of spread of the coronavirus disease; and Whereas, as a result of COVID-19 prevention measures, many unintended consequences have occurred to patients and residents of these facilities who were not diagnosed with COVID-19; and Whereas, the General Assembly has become aware of numerous patients and residents of health care facilities across our State who were not diagnosed with COVID-19, but as a result of visitation policies have been prohibited from having any visitors, including a spouse, parent, close family member, guardian, health care agent, or caregiver; and Whereas, many families have been unable to be physically present with their loved ones while in a hospital, nursing home, combination home, hospice care, adult care home, special care unit, or residential treatment setting for mental illness, developmental or intellectual disability, or substance use disorder, and have been limited to electronic video communications, if any, with the patient; [...]

Researcher blows the whistle on data integrity issues in Pfizer's vaccine trial.  In autumn 2020 Pfizer's chairman and chief executive, Albert Bourla, released an open letter to the billions of people around the world who were investing their hopes in a safe and effective covid-19 vaccine to end the pandemic.  "As I've said before, we are operating at the speed of science," Bourla wrote, explaining to the public when they could expect a Pfizer vaccine to be authorised in the United States.  But, for researchers who were testing Pfizer's vaccine at several sites in Texas during that autumn, speed may have come at the cost of data integrity and patient safety.  A regional director who was employed at the research organisation Ventavia Research Group has told The BMJ that the company falsified data, unblinded patients, employed inadequately trained vaccinators, and was slow to follow up on adverse events reported in Pfizer's pivotal phase III trial.  Staff who conducted quality control checks were overwhelmed by the volume of problems they were finding.  After repeatedly notifying Ventavia of these problems, the regional director, Brook Jackson, emailed a complaint to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  Ventavia fired her later the same day.  Jackson has provided The BMJ with dozens of internal company documents, photos, audio recordings, and emails.

If Science is the Jury, Masks' Days are Over.  The practice of mask-wearing has become contagious among many even though there is no data proving masks safely and effectively reduce viral transmission.  While the CDC claims "the benefits of wearing masks are well-established," the statement is provably false.  More than 150 studies prove masks are ineffective and many show harms especially to children.

CNN's 'Expert' Does a Complete 180, Now Admits 'Conspiracy Theorists' Were Right, School Closings did Harm Kids.  CNN has been backpeddling a ridiculous amount of their claims in the last few weeks since Zucker was fired.  Now the same doctor who wanted to 'make lives miserable' of people who refused the vax is now openly admitting that the vax does cause health issues.  In this segment she also admitted what conservatives have been saying all along, closing schools to kids who are the least impacted by COVID is actually bad for their mental health.  Will Fake News CNN go back and remove all of their posts that said the opposite?  Doubtful.  But this is yet another example of the fake news media trying to gaslight people as if they always believed what they previously labeled a 'conspiracy theory'.  So-called conspiracy theorists seem to have a much, much better track record in regards to COVID than the fake news media.  [Video clip]

What an amazing coincidence.  It's almost as if The Science has a political agenda.
Capitol physician drops Congress' mask mandate ahead of State of the Union address.  The US Capitol's attending physician said Sunday that [2/27/2022] masks will be optional on Capitol Hill starting Monday, just a day before President Joe Biden will deliver his State of the Union address in the House chamber.  Citing new guidance from US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Brian P. Monahan said in a memo that "individuals may choose to mask at any time, but it is no longer a requirement."

The CDC — which is withholding information — has a hidden agenda.  People say the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has a messaging problem.  But the CDC's problem is not messaging — it's issuing flawed guidance while covering up the data.  Case in point: pushing boosters for young people.  After the Food and Drug Administration inexplicably bypassed its expert advisory committee to authorize boosters for all young people, the CDC director overruled her own experts' down vote of the boosters-for-all proposal.  That's the magic of a call from the White House.  Two top FDA officials, including the agency's vaccine center head, quit over White House pressure to authorize boosters for the young.  But after the FDA and CDC rammed through the recommendation, they made sure the public wouldn't see the real-world data.  Despite repeated pleas to release all its data, the CDC only posted stats on boosters in people over age 50.

NYC mayor announces tentative end date to city's vaccine, school mask mandates.  On Sunday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a tentative end date to the city's vaccine and school mask mandates.  "More than a million New York City school children will return to class tomorrow.  If our numbers continue to show a low level of risk, we will remove the indoor mask mandate for public school students, effective Monday, March 7," wrote Adams.

California weighs punishing doctors for challenging 'contemporary scientific consensus' on COVID.  Disagreement with the "contemporary scientific consensus" on COVID-19 issues could be deemed "unprofessional conduct" for California doctors.  Democratic Assemblyman Evan Low's AB 2098 "may" be the subject of a March 17 hearing in the Assembly Committee on Business and Professions, where it was referred last week, according to the legislative history.  The bill, which was cowritten by five other California Assembly and Senate members, goes beyond regulating how California doctors can treat their own patients.  It opens their statements about COVID — public or private — to review by the Medical Board of California and the Osteopathic Medical Board of California, with possible sanctions to follow.  "Existing law requires the applicable board to take action against any licensed physician and surgeon who is charged with unprofessional conduct," according to the legislative counsel's summary, and the bill would "designate the dissemination or promotion of misinformation or disinformation" about COVID as "unprofessional conduct," without specifying what's prohibited.

The Totalitarian Left Begin Backing Toward the COVID Exits.  In case you missed it, March 1st has been declared as the unofficial end date for COVID-19 as a political weapon.  Domestically, the political leftists, who weaponized science for their totalitarian control, have decided it is time to head for the exits.  We are now supposed to ignore the last two years of brutal impact they inflicted on society.  You can always spot the shift by looking at how Hollywood and pop culture are triggered by the messaging from the political crew.  Once given the nod, there's a silent move toward the exits while everyone is distracted.  Of course, the exit strategy is always frustrating for those who have watched this play out.  The SNL segment is presented as humor, but when you recognize the inherent message, there's nothing funny about it.

How Government Is Adding to, Not Solving, Labor Shortages in Health Care and Elsewhere.  COVID-19 is not to blame for four-decade-high inflation and an unprecedented labor shortage.  Rather, bad government policies, originally enacted as part of a stated attempt to keep people safe from COVID-19, are to blame.  Instead of keeping people safe, government policies are doing more harm than good to public health and well-being and restricting the labor supply and artificially increasing demand for goods and services.  The current labor shortage is unlike any before in U.S. history, and the opposite of what was expected at the start of the pandemic.  But when policymakers establish programs that pay many people more money to be unemployed than to work and then keep those programs in place 18 months after the pandemic started — long after most workplaces reopened — it should not be surprising that fewer people will choose to work.  I estimate that employment today is between 4 million and 5 million workers below what it would have been absent the pandemic and absent policymakers' pandemic responses.

Pfizer's COVID vaccine is just 12% effective in preventing Omicron infection in children aged five to 11, new study reveals.  The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine has done little to protect five- to 11- year-olds from infection from the Omicron variant, data revealed by New York state officials on Monday shows.  Researchers at the New York State Department Health gauged infection rates of minors who have had the Pfizer jab made available to them.  Children were split into two age groups, one of children five to 11 and the other for children 12 to 17.  They found that the two-dose Pfizer shot was only 12 percent effective at preventing Omicron infection in the younger age group only one month after [receiving it].  The findings have far reaching implications on the use of the vaccines, and whether parents will want to get their children jabbed.

California, Oregon, Washington [will soon] Drop School Mask Mandates.  Following the updated CDC guidance that relaxed Covid-19 masking recommendations, California, Oregon, and Washington state will drop their mask mandates for K-12 public schools in mid-March.  "With declining case rates and hospitalizations across the West, California, Oregon and Washington are moving together to update their masking guidance," the governors announced in a joint statement Monday [2/28/2022].  The new directive will also apply to most indoor settings in all three states in addition to schools.  Many Republican-controlled states lifted their mask requirements months ago.

Poison Control Centers Warn About Toxic Chemical in At-Home COVID-19 Test Kits.  Some at-home rapid COVID-19 tests contain a toxic chemical that may be harmful to both children and adults, according to health officials.  The Cincinnati Drug and Poison Information Center reported an uptick in accidental exposures to a possibly toxic substance, sodium azide, in at-home COVID-19 test kits, according to a blog post.  Meanwhile, the National Poison Control Center issued a warning about the chemical.  "It is important to know that the extraction vial in many rapid antigen kits includes the chemical sodium azide as a preservative agent," the center said.  "The BinaxNow, BD Veritor, Flowflex, and Celltrion DiaTrust COVID-19 rapid antigen kits all contain this chemical."  Sodium azide is a colorless, odorless powder that testers dip cotton swabs into.  The chemical is found in herbicides, pest control agents, and airbags for cars.

See the CDC corruption for yourself.  [Scroll down]  Underreporting is more likely.  In fact, the term "overreporting" wasn't even mentioned in the reference they cite.  I can't even figure out how VAERS could be overreported since the system should eliminate duplicates unless there is a bug.  But the key thing here is they did absolutely nothing to attempt to quantify the underreporting factor (URF).  They absolutely know how to estimate it. [...] When I make the URF calculation using their methods and the best available data, the CDC then claims that they don't agree with my results.  They never say why.  My minimum URF comes to 41.  But that's for really serious stuff that will always get reported to VAERS.  For myocarditis, the doctors don't like to believe it could be caused by the vaccine so they typically won't report it.

Follow the Data, They Said, and Then Hid It.  Never before has the public had access to so much data on a virus and its effects.  For two years, data festooned the daily papers.  Dozens of websites assembled it.  We were all invited to follow the data, follow the science, and observe as scientists became our new overlords, instructing us how to feel, think, and behave in order to "flatten the curve," "drive down cases," "preserve capacity," "stay safe," and otherwise deploy all the powers of human will to respond to and manipulate disease outcomes.  We could watch it all in real time.  How beautiful were the waves, the curves, the bar charts, the sheer power of the technology. [...] It seems that with each month that's gone by, what seemed to be these beautiful pictures of reality have faded into a murky data quagmire in which we don't know what's real and what's not.  And ever more, the CDC itself has urged us to ignore what we do see (VAERS data, for example).

German Health Insurance Claims Show 31,254 Deaths Following COVID-19 Vaccines While Official Government Stats Report Only 2,255.  The entire COVID-19 vaccine narrative continues to come apart at the seams as yet another media report was published today in Germany stating that a large German health insurance company analyzed data from 10.9 million insured individuals regarding injuries and fatalities following COVID-19 vaccines during the first half of 2021 and into the 3rd quarter which showed significantly higher numbers than what the German government has reported.  This follows news reports out of the U.S. this past weekend where it was revealed that the CDC, FDA, and NIH contained data about significant COVID-19 vaccine injuries and deaths that were not being reported to the public.

New Zealand High Court ENDS Jacinda Ardern's Vaccine Mandate:  "It's a Gross Violation of Human Rights".  New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was left reeling on Friday [2/25/2022] 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.

List Of Over 100 Studies Proving How COVID Vaccines Are More Harmful Than What We're Being Told.  I will say this, when all of this is over and it will end, it has to, then we must get accountability for it is way past simple mistakes.  Some of this is malfeasance, yes greed that will wrap itself up into any matter, but there is real malfeasance.  Anyone who did wrong in this COVID, under Trump and Biden, anyone, anyone who profited, anyone who abused their position and anyone who costed lives, must sit in a jail cell for some time.  This is part of the healing, not simple mea culpas.

Resistance Not Futile:  History Lesson On How To End Vaccine Mandates.  If you're wondering how we'll ever put an end to these draconian COVID-19 mandates that are destroying lives and sanity across the world, take heart.  History can serve us in this regard.  The parallels between the COVID-19 pandemic and its countermeasures that of previous smallpox pandemics are fascinating to behold, and therein we can also find the answer to our current predicament.  Smallpox, a highly infectious and disfiguring illness with a fatality rate around 30%, has been with us for many centuries, probably thousands of years.  During the last four centuries, forced mass vaccination has been a recurring countermeasure relied on by government during these kinds of outbreaks, often with devastating results, and there have always been large portions of society that opposed it.

Neurological Injuries Soar After Shots : Strokes, Bels Palsy, Paralysis, MS.  An examination of the FDA and CDC's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) confirms that deaths and injuries due to neurological issues following COVID-19 injections have skyrocketed, when compared to the same adverse events reported following all FDA-approved vaccines for the previous 30 years.  And while none of the U.S. Health Agencies have published or made public their research on these post-vaccine neurological injuries, many medical journals have.  The COVID-19 experimental vaccines, which were given emergency use authorization illegally, should have been immediately pulled from the market at least a year ago.

Mandates And Lockdowns Failed Miserably, But Are Still Being Pushed?  Scientists the world over have done a deep dive into the unprecedented lockdowns and injection mandates that characterized the COVID-19 pandemic response.  Over and over again, the results confirm what many instinctively knew all along — that these totalitarian schemes didn't work and may have caused more harm than good.  Despite the writing on the wall, health officials and academics continue to defend the Draconian measures.  It's difficult to admit wrongdoing, especially of this magnitude, but sooner or later it will become widely known that, as Jeffrey Tucker, founder and president of the Brownstone Institute, put it, "these interventions turned a manageable pandemic into a catastrophe."

CDC No Longer Requiring Masks on School Buses.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Feb. 25 it is no longer requiring students and others on school buses to wear masks, but is keeping the mask mandate for all other forms of public transportation in place.  Effective Friday, "CDC does not require wearing of masks on buses or vans operated by public or private school systems, including early care and education/child care programs," the agency said in an update on its website.  The CDC typically only doles out guidance but under federal law, a top official at the agency on Jan. 29, 2021, issued an order requiring masks on "public transportation conveyances" and at "transportation hubs."  The order covers airplanes, ships, ferries, trains, subways, buses, and taxis traveling within the United States, or leaving or entering the country.  It also covers airports and other transportation hubs such as bus terminals.

SAG Awards:  Hollywood Celebrities Go Maskless While LAUSD Students [are] Still Forced to Mask Up.  Hollywood celebrities went completely maskless for the SAG Awards on Sunday at the same time that thousands of children across Los Angeles County are still being forced to wear masks indoors in school.  The SAG Awards allowed the stars to forego masks despite previously announcing that masks would be required.  The change in policy appears to be in line with recent changes to local health guidance.

Medical Institutions Ignore The Obvious Damage Mask Mandates Are Doing To Children's Language Development.  This month the Centers for Disease Control changed its age-based language proficiency milestones.  The new standard stipulates that 75 percent of children should be able to say 50 words by 30 months rather than the previous standard of 50 percent of kids saying 50 words by 24 months.  This relaxation of standards is in sharp contrast to childhood language guidelines from the Mayo Clinic, Stanford University, Cleveland Clinic, and Kaiser Permanente, all of which stipulate children should be able to say 50 words at 24 months.  The American Speech Language Association notes that speaking fewer than 50 words at 24 months constitutes a language disorder, and other authorities maintain that by 30 months a toddler should be able to say as many as 450 words and employ complex language skills such as use of pronouns, plurals, negation, and tenses.

A National Vaccine Pass Has Quietly Rolled Out.  Even as the omicron variant loosens its grip on the world, destinations continue to require travelers to show proof of vaccination.  And, increasingly, a paper CDC vaccination card is not cutting it.  While the United States government has not issued a federal digital vaccine pass, a national standard has nevertheless emerged.  To date, 21 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico offer accessibility to the SMART Health Card, a verifiable digital proof of vaccination developed through the Vaccination Credential Initiative (VCI), a global coalition of public and private stakeholders including Microsoft, Salesforce, Oracle, the Mayo Clinic and other health and tech heavyweights.

Dr. Ben Carson:  Leftist Schools are Creating "A Whole Generation of Pathological People".  Dr. Fauci and the CDC can say whatever they want about the effectiveness of masks in stopping Covid.  This isn't about them, their claims, or the accuracy of those claims, nor was Dr. Ben Carson's speech on CPAC.  Rather, his speech hit on a different aspect of the masks, one that the left is loath to bring up: how forcing kids to stay masked at school is affecting their mental and emotional development.  Speaking on that issue, one that's quite the hot topic considering how schools are tenaciously defending their masking policies, Carson had this to say about the development of children and how facial expressions play into that development:  "You look at the mask-wearing, particularly at a young age when you're trying to develop your sociological image of yourself.  And a lot of that is because of positive feedback that you get by looking at people's facial expressions."

Nearly half of Biden's 500M free COVID tests [are] still unclaimed.  Nearly half of the 500 million free COVID-19 tests the Biden administration recently made available to the public still have not been claimed as virus cases plummet and people feel less urgency to test.  Wild demand swings have been a subplot in the pandemic, from vaccines to hand sanitizer, along with tests.  On the first day of the White House test giveaway in January, COVIDtests.gov received over 45 million orders.  Now officials say fewer than 100,000 orders a day are coming in for the packages of four free rapid tests per household, delivered by the U.S. Postal Service.

Union wants FDNY to probe 6 deaths since December.  Members of the FDNY rank-and-file gathered for two funerals this week, as some among the department expressed concern about six deaths involving active personnel since early December.  The ages of those who died ranged from 31 to 60.  Three of the deaths happened off-duty.  The three that happened on duty were under review by the Office of Chief Medical Examiner.  The cause of death in the first incident, involving probationary firefighter Vincent Malveaux, who was 31, was still "pending further study," the ME said nearly three months after Malveaux collapsed during training on Randalls Island at the FDNY Academy.  He died Dec. 3 at Harlem Hospital.

If He Wasn't A Swamp Creature, Francis Collins Would Be Banned From YouTube For Covid Misinformation.  It was December 2020.  Francis Collins, then director of the National Institutes of Health, was just beginning his public push for the Covid-19 vaccines.  Hoping to enlist support from evangelical Christians, Collins granted an extended YouTube interview to his friend Russell Moore, leader at the time of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.  During their interview, Collins tried to allay fears that mRNA vaccines might be unsafe because they inject foreign mRNA into the body that could linger there.  Collins gave a comforting fact:  "The RNA lives a very short time in your body.  It is quickly degraded because RNA has a very short half-life.  So there's no residual of what you've been injected with beyond probably a few hours."  Under the banner of fighting "misinformation," the same message was spread by other health authorities.

Six Key Battles Currently Being Fought In The Culture War.  Nothing about Covid has ever been contained to the medical/scientific sphere.  If anything, it's always been responded to more politically than purely scientifically.  And now, despite the science clearly saying Covid is mild and endemic and even politicians in LA, NYC, and DC admitting defeat, there are still tens of millions of scared, panicked, and indoctrinated voters who will keep on keeping on with their masks and quest to shame the unvaccinated.

This study is highly questionable, in my opinion:
New study finds Wuhan market likely origin source of COVID-19.  A market in Wuhan, China, that sold live animals likely was the point of origin for the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a pair of studies released Saturday [2/26/2022].  "When you look at all of the evidence together, it's an extraordinarily clear picture that the pandemic started at the Huanan market," said Michael Worobey, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Arizona who co-authored both studies, told the New York Times.  The studies have yet to be published in a scientific journal.  Researchers analyzed data from a variety of sources to seek clues to how the pandemic began.  They concluded it was present in live mammals sold at the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in late 2019.

The Plague You Should Be Freaking Out About Is Government Abuse Of Power.  For anyone still naïve, stubborn, or fanatical enough to believe the Covid tyranny we've been suffocating under for the past two years is about a virus, let the events unfolding in Canada disabuse you of that illusion.  Invoking the Emergencies Act to freeze bank accounts, conduct mass arrests of peaceful demonstrators and protest organizers, target reporters and photographers, and establish "red zones" and checkpoints, all in response to a mobilized citizenry that is weary of ineffective, illiberal, and discriminatory Covid restrictions — this all smacks of dictatorship, not democracy.  It certainly has nothing to do with public health. [...] Meanwhile, jurisdictions around the world are hastily rolling back Covid edicts, lamely pointing to the usual fake science.  Behind the scenes, governments understand what their counterparts in places like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and France seem determined to ignore: the people are no longer buying their narrative.

The Collapsing Covid Narrative is Being Replaced with Putin and Ukraine.  As of this week, Iceland is the first country in the world to completely drop ALL Covid measures.  There will be no lockdowns or social restrictions.  There will be no mandatory Covid testing and if you happen to catch Covid you do not have to isolate.  There will be no vaccine passports and no vaccine mandates.  Anyone regardless of their vaccination status can travel to the country with no test required.  The unvaccinated will not face any form of discrimination or exclusion from society.  Iceland is returning to going back to life as it was before Covid.  This by itself would be astounding enough given that Iceland is in the midst of a massive Covid surge and posting record cases even as we speak.  If you did not know, the vaccination rate in Iceland is some 80% of the total population which means that around 90% of the adult population is fully vaccinated.  Obviously, the vaccines have done absolutely nothing to stop or even slow down the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.  Quite on the contrary, they seem to have led to its increase.

Pfizer is Funding Facebook's Fact-Checking Partner.  Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc. is sponsoring journalism training programs utilized by Facebook to train its "fact-checking" partners and censor stories and posts critical of COVID-19 vaccines.  The International Center For Journalists (ICFJ) — itself funded by the Open Society Foundations amongst others — is partnered with Meta, Facebook's parent company, on its "Journalism Project" initiative.  In turn, Facebook relies on the journalists funded and trained by ICFJ to "combat misinformation" on its platform through its controversial fact-checking operation.  Together, Facebook and the ICFJ have funded news outlets based in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East with a focus on COVID-19 reporting.  Facebook's fact-checking partner ICFJ, however, also receives financial backing from Pfizer, with its recently announced 2022 Arthur F. Burns Fellowship — named after a former Federal Reserve chairman — lists the pharmaceutical giant as one of the program's sponsors.

California versus Free Speech on COVID.  [Scroll down]  Fauci, Walensky, and gang have misled us about the nature of the virus, a likely gain-of function product of the Wuhan lab; the risks of the virus to children, which are negligible; the prevention of disease by masks; the marginal treatment benefits of remdesivir and potential utility of multiple alternative compounds; the development of the vaccines, which did not include testing of long-term efficacy and adverse effects; and the declining efficacy and uncertain safety of the vaccines, regarding which the CDC has suppressed important data.  It may come as a great surprise, therefore, to learn that Fauci and friends are not the targets of this legislation.

9 Year Old Gets Locked Out In The Cold For Not Wearing A Mask.  A 9-year-old girl was locked out and prevented from entering her classroom in below-freezing weather this morning at Summerville Elementary in Tuolumne, California for not wearing a mask.  When the VP was questioned on these tactics, she responded "I'm just doing my job."  [Video clip]

CDC Announces Indoor Masking No Longer Required Just Before Biden's SOTU.  The indoor use of face masks is no longer required, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Friday, just before President Biden's State of the Union Address on Tuesday.  Without a change in the science of coronavirus transmission, the CDC lowered the bar and put forth new guidance that places more than half of U.S. counties under low or medium risk of coronavirus, where making up is no longer suggested.  "That accounts for roughly 70 percent of Americans," NBC News reported.

CDC Drastically Alters Key Measure That Influences Mask Mandates Across US.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Feb. 25 drastically changed a key measure that is used by officials across the country to determine whether or not to require mask-wearing.  The federal agency now says nearly three-quarters of Americans don't need to wear masks because they live in areas with low or medium community risk from COVID-19.  The dramatic switch comes because the CDC switched from only using COVID-19 cases as a factor and are taking into account other metrics, including hospitalizations.  "This updated approach focuses on directing our prevention efforts toward protecting people at high risk for severe ailments and preventing hospitals and healthcare systems from being overwhelmed," Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the CDC's director, told reporters on a call.

'Those Who Make Peaceful Revolution Impossible Will Make Violent Revolution Inevitable'.  When Trump closed travel from China, he was called a racist.  When he discussed examining existing inexpensive treatments such as Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin he was mocked.  When he discussed comments from DHS about different possible cures they accused him of recommending people drink bleach.  When he wanted to balance keeping the economy healthy with keeping citizens healthy, they implemented draconian lockdowns.  When he implemented Project Warp Speed to streamline regulations to develop a vaccine and promised one by the end of the year, they said it couldn't be done and regardless, they wouldn't trust it if one was.  Whatever he did, from making ventilators available to building temporary hospitals to purchasing record amounts of PPE equipment, it was never enough and, for good measure, they accused him of killing tens of thousands of Americans.  Beyond the personal attacks, the left used COVID as a cover for stealing the 2020 election.

CDC to significantly ease pandemic mask guidelines Friday.  The Biden administration will significantly loosen federal mask-wearing guidelines to protect against COVID-19 transmission on Friday [2/25/2022], according to two people familiar with the matter, meaning most Americans will no longer be advised to wear masks in indoor public settings.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday will announce a change to the metrics it uses to determine whether to recommend face coverings, shifting from looking at COVID-19 case counts to a more holistic view of risk from the coronavirus to a community.

CDC [is] Expected to Drop [its] Mask Guidance That Nobody Pays Attention To.  According to the Associated Press, the CDC is likely to strongly loosen their mask guidance tomorrow, dropping the recommendation that masks should be worn indoors.  That said, I'm not sure how many places even have a mask wearing policy any longer.

CDC: Some of you should wait longer before getting your second vaccination.  In the states and cities where immunity passports are still required, people have been told that they need to be "fully vaccinated" to be in compliance.  For most people, that means two initial shots spaced three (for Pfizer) or four weeks (for Moderna) apart followed by a booster shot roughly six months later.  Of course, those definitions have been changed by the CDC on a regular basis.  They recently suggested that the boosters should be given as soon as four months after the initial injections because people's immunity was fading too quickly.  But now they're even walking back the spacing of the initial two shots, at least for some people.

More evidence Covid was tinkered with in a lab?  Fresh suspicion that Covid may have been tinkered with in a lab emerged today after scientists found genetic material owned by Moderna in the virus's spike protein.  They identified a tiny snippet of code that is identical to part of a gene patented by the vaccine maker three years before the pandemic.  It was discovered in SARS-CoV-2's unique furin cleavage site, the part that makes it so good at infecting people and separates it from other coronaviruses.  The structure has been one of the focal points of debate about the virus's origin, with some scientists claiming it could not have been acquired naturally.

Has Anyone Actually Seen Anthony Fauci Recently?  Once prominent on virtually every media outlet available, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the Chief Medical Advisor to the President, seems to have disappeared without a trace.  He was seemingly last spotted a week ago, giving an interview to Reuters, which reported that Fauci says that it's time to start "inching" back to normal. [...] Fauci's made a name for himself over the last year as a promoter of the worst kind of panic porn, which the media that was so eager to have him on was more than happy to play into.  Conflicting messaging on masks, vaccines, and mitigation efforts, as well as overhyping less dangerous variants, all severely diminished the amount of trust people have in our health arrogant and unapologetic authority figures.

The Covid Cartel Lied, People Died.  Now They Say It's All Your Fault.  In July 2021, President Biden, members of his administration, and the rest of the Covid cartel — federal health agencies, Big Pharma, legacy media, and Big Tech — began blaming the unvaccinated for the prolonged pandemic and calling it a "pandemic of the unvaccinated."  On July 16, 2021, Salvador Rizzo, writing as the Washington Post's fact-checker, and therefore an esteemed member of the Covid cartel, awarded Johnson four Pinocchios for stating what was objectively true:  the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) had already reported "over 5,200 deaths" on their "early warning system."  On August 3, 2021, Israel's Health Ministry reported smashing a five-month record of new cases, the vast majority in the fully vaccinated population.  On Sept. 1, the New England Journal of Medicine published a letter reporting that Covid vaccine protection among 19,000 health care workers in San Diego went from 94-plus percent March through June to 66 percent in July.

CDC Is Refusing To Release Data On The Effects Of Boosters On 18-49 Year Olds.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has withheld vast swaths of the information it holds about the impact of COVID-19, leading to anger from the scientific community and speculation the agency is not releasing the data because it weakens the case for booster shots in certain demographics.  Two weeks ago, the CDC published the first significant data on the effectiveness of boosters in adults younger than 65.  But the agency, led by Dr Rochelle Walensky, did not share the information on those aged 18-49, who are considered to be the least likely to benefit from a booster.  [Video clip]

N.J. spent more than $90M on COVID vaccine hotline in 2021, records show.  When COVID vaccines first became available in January of last year to more than 4 million people, there was a stampede for appointments.  Frustrated residents spent hours scouring dozens of vaccine provider websites, trying to secure a coveted slot.  Some would wake up in the middle of the night to forage for new listings.  The lack of a streamlined or centralized system was especially disconcerting to seniors, who said they had trouble booking appointments online as demand greatly outweighed supply.  The state launched its "NJ Vaccine Scheduling System" website on Jan. 5 and even though hundreds of thousands of people signed up, the site was not actually helping people get appointments.  It only notified residents when they were eligible and provided a list of vaccine sites.

French Tennis Star Gael Monfils Blames Booster Shot For His Health Problem Resulting in Withdrawal from Tournament.  On Tuesday, French Number One tennis star player announced his withdrawal from next week's tournament after suffering a potential adverse reaction following his Covid-19 booster shot.  Gael Monfils, 35, announced his withdrawal from next week's Davis Cup on his social media account due to health problems.  "Hello everyone, I wanted to give you some news following my recent withdrawals from tournaments.  I suffered a minor health glitch (probably following my third dose of vaccine)," Monfils revealed on his Twitter account.  "On the advice of my doctor, I have decided to take some time to rest.  Unfortunately, I will not be able to play the Davis Cup next week," he added.

New JAMA paper show Ivermectin blows the COVID vaccines out of the water.  Remember that "horse dewormer" that the FDA, CDC, NIH, CNN, and Sanjay Gupta all told you not to use?  A new paper recently published in the Journal of the AMA (JAMA) shows that Ivermectin works way better than the COVID vaccine in keeping you from dying from COVID.  [Illustration]  This was an open-label randomized trial done in Malaysia with around 250 patients in each arm.  One arm got IVM + standard of care, the other arm got the standard of care.  Of course, JAMA never would have published this if they thought that people would actually look at the data. [...] Read the paper if you want the truth.  If you want to be misled, just read the abstract.

In the End, Sweden Did It Right.  What if two years ago, when COVID-19 first hit these shores, our politicians hadn't panicked?  What if the government did what it has done every time we were confronted with a deadly virus, such as the Spanish flu or polio?  Instead of locking down our schools, churches and businesses, the government could have simply informed citizens of the risks of getting sick and urged people to be extra careful about hygiene, stay out of crowded places and protect the vulnerable.  It turns out there was one country that mostly rejected lockdowns and let life go on as normal as possible under dire circumstances.  That country was Sweden.  There were some restrictions and temporary lockdowns, but they were minimal.  The hero of this story is Anders Tegnell, Sweden's chief epidemiologist.  He was Sweden's Anthony Fauci, but unlike the now-widely discredited Fauci, Tegnell eschewed lockdowns.

France Deactivates 4 Million Vaccine Passports.  This past week, the French Government began deactivating the vaccine passports of nearly four million double-vaxxed citizens because they still have not taken the booster, according to France News 24.  Individuals who have had their passes taken away will effectively be relegated to unvaxxed status and no longer be able to engage in most aspects of society.  Although some are willing to take the booster, most were caught completely off guard when they checked their app and found their privileges had been revoked.

Masking Facial Expression in Children.  We humans are social creatures that communicate through complex languages and facial gestures.  Our personalities are ingrained in these unique expressions, which impart visual messages that words alone cannot convey.  Facial expressions provoke a variety of cognitive processes, including emotional gesticulations that elicit rapid responses and ostensive ones that signal a willingness to communicate.  A hidden face deprives us of one of the most basic aspects of humanity and the ability to constructively interact in social settings.  Face masking children constitutes a sacrifice on a scale that can only be made in response to a danger of proportionate magnitude.

Bill Gates admits Omicron creating natural immunity.  Microsoft founder Bill Gates admitted the Omicron variant has created a high level of natural immunity in the world.  He recently made these comments at a security conference.  Gates added, the risk of infection has decreased dramatically while citing multiple surveys conducted in Africa.  The former Microsoft CEO described the Omicron variant as a type of vaccine while also calling the revelation sad.

If there was any benefit to masking kids, it's long since disappeared.  States around the nation, including Democratic ones such as New York and California, are lifting indoor mask mandates.  But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention refuses to budge.  It continues to recommend indoor masking in communities with substantial or high transmission — essentially the entire country — a stance that is particularly exasperating and harmful in regards to schools.  The agency recommends masking all students ages 2 and older.  In congressional testimony, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky insisted that school mask mandates continue.  The following day, at a White House briefing, Walensky, after acknowledging rapidly falling COVID cases, hospitalizations and deaths, said the agency would reconsider its guidelines, but gave no indication any update would apply to schools.  Two days later, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief White House medical adviser, echoed his overcautious colleague, telling CNN that ending school masking would be "risky."

Frustration continues over ongoing mask mandate in CA schools.  Some families are reaching a boiling point over the school mask mandate at Poway Unified School District.  From heated school board meetings in Santee to anti-mask rallies in Poway, young children and their parents are becoming more vocal over California's indoor school mask mandate that has no expiration date.  PUSD superintendent Marian Kim Phelps wrote a two-page letter to Governor Gavin Newsom and the county's health officer Dr. Wilma Wooten last week asking for an immediate time frame as to when the mandate would be lifted.  California is one of 13 states in the country that have yet to lift the mask mandate in schools.

CDC withholding evidence concerning COVID vaccine safety is scientific fraud.  Basically, a non-governmental spokesperson for the "official" public health scientific community is throwing Rochelle Walinsky under the bus, and saying that the politicians forced us to commit scientific fraud by withholding key data.  The Global Summit Doctors and other brave medical practitioners who have stood up to the lies and tyranny — who have been harassed, jobs lost, medical licenses lost, smeared and libeled are right.  The data are being withheld.  The main stream media owes a whole lot of us scientist[s] and physicians a huge apology.  The main stream media has to stop being the mouthpiece for the government.  This is not communist China!  The government owes the American people a huge apology.  People in the government who have lied to the American people need to be charged and must be held legally accountable.  We the people must demand to see ALL of the data from the CDC and the FDA.

The Centers For Disease Control's Lies Have Destroyed Its Legitimacy.  On August 6, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control released a report that the agency claimed showed "Vaccination Offers Higher Protection than Previous COVID-19 Infection." This assertion came amidst a public battle with Sen. Rand Paul, as the CDC released this data from Kentucky, Paul's home state.  Yet after indisputable scientific evidence continued to pile up in favor of natural immunity, the CDC finally capitulated on January 19, 2022, recognizing the superiority of natural immunity over vaccination alone:  "Between May and November 2021, people who were unvaccinated and did not have a prior COVID-19 infection remained at the highest risk of infection and hospitalization, while those who were previously infected, both with or without prior vaccination, had the greatest protection."

CDC Admits They are Keeping Vaccine and COVID Data Hidden Because They Worry People Will Talk About It.  The New York Times reports quotes from the CDC spokesperson about why the public health organization refuses to release data on COVID-19 and the vaccines.  Nothing quite builds public confidence like the CDC saying they cannot release information because they are worried people will talk about it.  The CDC basically says they do not want to release the data because they are worried people will talk about the data, and not the official CDC interpretation of the data.  So, the CDC says, trust us... we've looked at the data... it says good things, promise.

Will We Learn the Right Lesson in Our Recent Failed Social Experiment with Mask Mandates?  Modern progressives have been particularly susceptible to the seductions of masking propaganda over the past two years, as it was presented as scientific innovation overturning the ignorance of the past.  They fancy themselves enlightened sophisticates who are uniquely able to grasp such supposedly novel ideas, you see.  A piece of cloth over mouth and nose, you say?  Why, the mouth and nose are often the sources of respiratory viral spread.  Ingenious!  Why didn't anyone in the twentieth century think of that?  Thank goodness for Dr. Fauci and "the Science!"  It never occurs to them that the scientific consensus against public masking had been shaped and preserved for a hundred years by scientists and public health officials who also recognized that wearing a barrier over one's mouth and nose might provide some marginal benefit in preventing the spread of a virus.

New data:  Protection from COVID boosters may last for years, avoiding need for fourth shot near term.  Note the word "protection" in the headline, which is different from "antibodies." Antibodies always fade in time; it takes around four months after a third COVID shot, according to the best data we have.  But there's more to immunity than just antibodies.  There are also T cells and B cells, which work together to help the immune system form a "memory" of a particular virus. (Or the spike protein of a particular virus, which is how the vaccines work.) Once you have that "memory," you can generate new antibodies rapidly to neutralize that virus if you're infected with it.

CDC Is Hiding Data — To Protect You From The Truth.  The wheels are coming off.  People are catching on.

The C.D.C. Isn't Publishing Large Portions of the Covid Data It Collects.  For more than a year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has collected data on hospitalizations for Covid-19 in the United States and broken it down by age, race and vaccination status.  But it has not made most of the information public.  When the C.D.C. published the first significant data on the effectiveness of boosters in adults younger than 65 two weeks ago, it left out the numbers for a huge portion of that population: 18- to 49-year-olds, the group least likely to benefit from extra shots, because the first two doses already left them well-protected.  The agency recently debuted a dashboard of wastewater data on its website that will be updated daily and might provide early signals of an oncoming surge of Covid cases.  Some states and localities had been sharing wastewater information with the agency since the start of the pandemic, but it had never before released those findings.

Canadian Covid Care Alliance FAQ.  The internationally known Freedom Convoy, led by the Canadian truckers, was sparked by a federal government mandate on January 15th, 2022.  The change in classification now requires 'not COVID doubly vaccinated' Canadian truckers to quarantine for 2 weeks upon re-entry to Canada while fully vaccinated truckers would continue to be recognized as essential workers with no such requirement.  In short, the non-vaccinated and partially vaccinated truckers were to be re-classified from essential to non-essential and coerced into getting doubly vaccinated to preserve their freedom of border crossing and to earn a living.  It is now clear that both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals can both catch and transmit the virus, and if they have COVID-19, this is with an equivalent viral load.  Prime Minister Trudeau has demonstrated this for us all when, despite being doubly vaccinated and further boosted, he contracted COVID-19 during the Trucker's Convoy arriving in Ottawa.

MSNBC Reporter Admits Democratic Base Doesn't Want to Go Back to 'Normal'.  This is really a remarkable admission from MSNBC reporter Alex Seitz-Wald, who gave a grim assessment of the Democrats' challenge in lifting COVID-19 restrictions across the board and returning the United States to some sense of "normal."  A recent poll showed a whopping 65% of Democrats who believe it "too early to rescind mask mandates" as opposed to just 20% of Republicans who think that way.  How does that mesh with Democratic governors who are in the process of lifting mask mandates in their states?

Democratic mayor holds maskless party weeks after reinstating indoor mandate.  Weeks after reinstating New Orleans's indoor mask mandate for public buildings and schools, the city's Democratic mayor, LaToya Cantrell, was seen partying maskless Friday at an indoor Mardi Gras event.  Over 100 videos showing Cantrell's party at Gallier Hall could be seen online before they were taken down, according to a report.

I cannot say more today.  It is hard what the police are doing; clearly it is illegal; they should stand back; they need to think about all the unvaccinated truckers who took a stand and are at risk of losing everything... their livelihoods... the police must take a stand and band together and say this is wrong [...] The ones doing the arresting, I am very troubled by and outraged by.  Trampling with horses etc.  This is devastating.  I am shocked by this... they are supposed to uphold and enforce the law, not illegal acts dictated by a wrongful deranged government. [...] I love the blue, I support police, I start there, and I am fully disclosing.  But I know when they are wrong and here they are.  They must be willing to band together now and say 'NO' to the Trudeau govn.  If the police united in the numbers like the truckers, that would be transformational... will help fix this... there is noting illegal or wrong with what the truckers are doing[.]

UN Planes In Ontario, North Bay - Shocked Canadians Believe They Carry The "Green Shirt" Officers In Ottawa.  Who would have thought that Canada would ever be a spark plug for a freedom movement against tyranny?  Everything started when Ottawa's police chief was ousted amid criticism of his inaction against the trucker protests that have paralyzed Canada's capital for over two weeks, while the number of blockades maintained by demonstrators at the U.S. border dropped to just one.  The twin developments came a day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked Canada's Emergencies Act and threatened to take tough legal and financial measures to end the unrest in Ottawa and beyond by protesters decrying the country's COVID-19 restrictions and Trudeau's government.  Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly lost his job after failing to move decisively against the bumper-to-bumper demonstration by hundreds of truck drivers according to the mainstream media.  Local sources alleged that he just didn't want to follow orders that would require stomping on Canada's democracy!

The Reason for the Police Violence in Ottawa is Not What You Think.  The black clad army of mercenaries and police brutalizing a peaceful protest in Ottawa this weekend has been planned for years.  It is overkill for a reason.  It is theatre.  It is an othering, a willful flagrant statement on the future of the working class everywhere.  It instructs them:  you will die.  If not now, then sometime in the next ten years.  Your towns will be gutted, your jobs will evaporate, you will scramble for pennies until you fall over dead and your children will have nothing to look forward to.  You are Tutsi, you are Jew, you are Kulak, you are compromador, you are Othered.  You are headed for the slagheap of history.  Fight back and you will be deemed domestic terrorists and encamped indefinitely.  This week, Canada's intelligentsia unmasked themselves as fully on side of this demonic enterprise, competing to hate on the truckers.


NYC Mayor:  Vax mandates don't work but we're sticking with them anyway.  Slowly but surely, the various COVID mandates are being relaxed or removed around the country.  That's even true in some blue states, where elected officials have come to realize that people are done with the pandemic and the restrictions being imposed on them in response to it.  But not everyone is ready to abandon ship entirely.  New York State still has a face mask mandate in place in the schools, though the Governor is ready to "review" it again this week to decide if the time has come to lift it.  Similarly, in New York City, there is a vaccination mandate in place for all municipal workers and people are still losing their jobs every week if they refuse to comply, despite the fact that an increasing body of evidence suggests that these mandates do little if anything to further combat the pandemic.

Mo Brooks:  U.S. Should Grant Canadian Truckers Political Asylum.  Representative Mo Brooks (R-AL) suggests an outside-the-box approach to taking on any truck driver shortages the United States faces.  During an interview [...], Brooks, a candidate for U.S. Senate in Alabama, proposed granting Canadian truckers protesting the Trudeau government political asylum in the United States.  Brooks applauded the efforts of the so-called Freedom Convoy truckers before making his pitch.

No vax needed for performers, presenters at Oscars, different standard for nominees and guests.  In a liberal haven like Hollywood, you'd think that a blatant show of COVID-19 mandate hypocrisy would be avoided in order to avoid the publicity yet you would be mistaken.  There is a distinction made between performers and presenters at this year's Oscars ceremony versus award nominees and guests attending the ceremony.  The logic escapes me here.  The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences decided that the coronavirus safety measures will include requiring all nominees and guests to show proof of vaccination and at least two negative P.C.R. tests.  The audience is expected to be 2,500 in total attendance, including the nominees.  However, performers and presenters will be required to be tested but no need to show proof of vaccination will be necessary.  The audience in the room has to prove vaccination but the performers and presenters don't have a requirement of being vaccinated.  Does the virus magically know where the stage stops and the audience seating areas begin?

FDNY union leader requests probe into possible correlation between recent department deaths and COVID vaccines.  An FDNY union leader wants the department to investigate whether three recent firefighter deaths resulted from city-mandated COVID-19 jabs.  The request from Uniformed Fire Officers Association President James McCarthy comes after the line-of-duty deaths of Lt. Joseph Maiello, 53, who was found dead in a Staten Island firehouse after a Christmas shift, and Firefighter Jesse Gerhard, 33, who died at his firehouse in Far Rockaway, Queens, after a medical episode Wednesday [2/16/2022].  McCarthy wants the FDNY to include in its vaccine probe the death of Probationary Firefighter Vincent Malveaux, 31, who died Dec. 2 at the FDNY Training Academy on Randalls Island after suffering a medical episode believed to be a seizure.

The Gathering Storm in the West.  Canada is now governed by absurdism, and it is symptomatic of an ailing Western elite.  Liberal Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week invoked martial law to arrest and financially destroy truckers on the charge that their largely peaceful protests are "dismantling the Canadian economy" that had already been dismantled for two years under some of the most draconian lockdowns in the world.  The trucker "sect," Trudeau added, is guilty of felonious "unacceptable views."  But his rhetoric still cannot square the circle of demonizing vital workers while conceding he cannot run his country without them.  He has invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time in the law's 34-year history, even as the highly infectious Omicron variant wanes after spreading natural immunity and yet proving relatively mild in its effects.  Trudeau has neither science nor good governance on his side, especially given how civil the protests have been.  The truckers, who more or less work in solitary cabs, are better informed about the "science" and are themselves mostly vaccinated.

Very quietly, 2 federal agencies are studying post-vaccination neurological issues.  With no public announcements, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) both are studying neurological problems that have appeared in people after receiving the Covid vaccines.  In a scoop, Zachary Stieber of the Epoch Times has confirmed via emails that the studies are underway.

US Agencies Quietly Studying Reports of Post-Vaccination Neurological Issues.  Two U.S. agencies have been quietly studying neurological problems that have appeared in people who have had COVID-19 vaccines, The Epoch Times has found.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) have been conducting separate research projects into post-vaccination neurological issues, which have manifested with symptoms like facial paralysis and brain fog and have been linked in some cases with the vaccines, according to emails reviewed by The Epoch Times.  One attempt to gain understanding of a problem that experts around the world are struggling to understand is being carried out by Dr. Janet Woodcock, who was acting commissioner of the FDA until Feb. 17.  Woodcock, now the FDA's principal deputy director, has been personally evaluating neurologic side effects from the COVID-19 vaccines since at least Sept. 13, 2021, according to the emails, many of which have not been reported on previously.

The police in Paris did something entirely unexpected.  It's been terribly disappointing, both inside and outside of America, to see police forces rally to enforce tyrannical, unprincipled, and often illegal or unconstitutional government responses to COVID. [...] And the fact is that, in Year One, COVID was enough of a mystery that people played along.  By Year Two, though, not only were people tired of the restrictions on a disease that proved to have an average mortality of something less than 1%, they were deeply concerned that the so-called vaccines were as dangerous as, if not more dangerous than, COVID itself.  As time went on, they pointed out that the vaccines didn't vaccinate, that people were dying or becoming terribly ill in reaction to the jabs, and that the various governments were hiding data.  The world's Western governments, however, including Biden's administration and most Democrat governors, have seen the vaccines as the perfect way to separate good, obedient leftist citizens from bad, disobedient, independent-minded citizens.  The vaccine mandates were especially useful with police forces because all the independent-minded officers got fired.  The ones who remained were happy to do anything for their paychecks and were even actively on board with the whole mandate regime.

Leftist Holdouts Just Cannot Ditch the Masks.  After two years, the media acknowledged that cloth face masks don't work to prevent the spread of COVID.  Now our governors can align scientific consensus with policy.  After CNN and The Atlantic reported that face masks don't work, California and nine other Democrat governors revoked their state indoor mask mandates.  That leaves only four states with continuing statewide mask mandates.  Has the evidence on masks changed?  No.  The CDC reviewed the scientific literature pre-pandemic and highlighted that ten high-quality randomized controlled trials (RCT) demonstrated that masks failed to prevent transmission of respiratory viruses.  In May 2020, a Denmark RCT added to the literature showing that surgical masks don't reduce the spread of COVID.  The scientific evidence continues to accrue of mask inefficacy and harm.

Religious Intolerance and COVID Vax Mandates.  In our current age of woke domination and historical ignorance, the words of Joseph Noyes speak to us through the centuries. [...] Yet, 265 years later, in the Age of COVID, we see students and faculty deprived of their jobs and/or education because institutions of higher learning have decided that they are now the modern-day Star Chamber.  It now appears that comparing COVID restrictions to Nazism is quite apropos.  At Penn State, employees who refuse vaccination face re-education and counseling.  Consequently, "non-compliant faculty must meet with an executive ... to discuss their intent to be fully compliant.  Further administrative actions will be discussed ... and will include expectations for progress toward compliance, potential for unpaid administrative leave, and other disciplinary steps up to, and potentially including, termination."  In Maryland, "Loyola Marymount University does offer the religious exemption option for students.  That opportunity, like many universities, came with a deadline for enrollment for the fall semester, according to the university website."

After a big show of force against truckers, Trudeau's regime bruits making its new powers permanent.  It's just this one little sliver of Sudetenland.  It's just ten days to stop the spread.  It's just some street clearing in Canada.  And now we have this from the Trudeau regime, seeking to make its highly questionable power grab against the truckers protesting Canada's vaccine mandates a part of its permanent powers:  [Tweet] [...] Obviously, the Trudeauvians like that feel of power.  They'd like more of it.  Ten days to stop the spread — no, make that ten thousand days.

Senate Republicans fail to block Democrat-led Vaccine Mandates.  If you ask any vaccine skeptics about their objections to the vaccine mandate their answer usually is two-fold.  First, they are concerned about the effectiveness and side effects of the vaccine.  The authorities are frequently redefining the term 'fully-vaccinated' by adding boosters also alarms them.  They are also troubled by government overreach.  They realize that once freedoms and rights are encroached upon by the government, they are seldom fully relinquished completely.  The Biden administration has successfully mandated vaccines for health care workers, military personnel, and non-citizen air travelers, while their attempts to mandate the vaccine for federal government contractors and employees and private sector employees have failed.  There have been proposals to vaccinate children, including those under 5.  State administrations have imposed restrictions on movement, access to public spaces, and public assembly.  There have been instances of police arresting and fining individuals for merely attending a party or being part of religious gatherings.  While other restrictions can be undone over a period of time, the citizen understands that the vaccine once injected into your body will cause permanent changes.  Since the Democrats have been dogmatic about vaccine mandates, the people look towards the Republicans for support.

It's possible to get very rich from manufactured flu and war crises.  [Scroll down]  We've seen prices artificially inflated from the start of Biden's administration when he shut down the pipeline and tightened regulations.  Meanwhile, stories about war keep the price moving up as the big money sells into that constant increase in price.  Putin, the Middle Eastern oil countries, and other big-money people are more than happy to quietly play along again and reap the rewards of higher priced everything.  "Ok, wait, let me make sure I'm reading this correctly.  So, you're suggesting two crises were manufactured.  One, the respiratory flu, to make oil cheap, and, two, the war rumors the last few weeks were manufactured to drive up oil and gas prices to be able to put the cheap oil on the market at a higher price?"  Well, yes, maybe that and, well, I don't know, maybe the flu and war fears are also meant to distract you from stopping your world from being taken over.  The one thing we know for certain is that the last two years have made the world's rich people incredibly richer.  Everything played to their benefit.  Why would that stop now?

Video Shows Justin's Green Shirts Officers Removed Their Identifying Names and Badge Numbers From Their Uniforms.  The Trudeau regime has given up all pretense of free society, as they trample freedoms and human beings in a vicious, Stalin-esque crackdown on free speech.  Not just the speech of protesters but of the press as well.  The Ottawa government and the Canadian government overall are invoking anti-terror powers to physically assault protesters and reporters, and lying online about what they're doing, gaslighting the world as they burn down Canada's veneer of being a free state.  Lines of heavily-armed police in Ottawa dramatically thrust forward Saturday morning [2/19/2022] to gain yet more ground in the operation to smash the truck-protest occupation of the downtown area.

With Possibility of Protests Looming, Joe Biden Extends U.S. COVID-19 National Security Declaration to Retain Additional Power.  Joe Biden informed Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi that he intends to extend the federal National Emergency declaration beyond its termination date in March.  By statute the State of a National Emergency expires one year after initial declaration.  That meant the COVID National Emergency declaration was scheduled to end March 1st.  However, the statute allows the extension if the executive office informs the legislative branch within the 90-day window prior to expiration.  Biden informed Nancy Pelosi today [2/18/2022] of his intent to extend the National Emergency.  Both the House and Senate will now have to schedule a vote to support the extension.

Hundreds of protesters join Quebec City trucker convoy, with more on the way.  Undaunted by the police shutdown of the anti-health-restriction demonstrations in Ottawa, thousands of protesters hopped into their trucks and other vehicles Saturday and rolled into the provincial capital.  For the second weekend this month, trucks, tractors and semis made their appearance on the streets near the National Assembly despite cold weather and a snowstorm.  They were allowed to blow their horns during two blocks of time but not continuously as part of a deal negotiated with police.  Even though one organizer had said they planned to jam up Quebec, they followed the rules, parking their trucks in designated areas.  They are all expected to leave by Sunday evening as happened the last time such a protest took place Feb. 5-6.

Scotland Stops Releasing Death and Hospitalisation Figures by Vax Status, Says Anti-Vaxers Misusing Them.  Scottish health officials will no longer release figures on Covid deaths and hospitalisations by vaccination status as it does now, complaining that anti-vaxers are misusing the data.  Public Health Scotland (PHS), the Scottish equivalent of the UK Health Security Agency (formerly Public Health England) believes that "[t]he case rates, hospitalisation rates, the death rates are very simple statistics" and that anti-vaxers are misreading them "inappropriately and sometimes wilfully".  "What is happening is people are looking at those simple data and trying to make inferences about the vaccination, whether the vaccines work, inappropriately and sometimes wilfully," one technocrat at the Special National Health Service (NHS) Health Board complained to the Scottish press.

The End of COVID-19.  People cannot stay locked down forever; it causes real harm.  Pandemic restrictions have been in place for almost two years now.  It's an understatement to say people are over it.  Everyone wants to protect the most vulnerable among us, but the damage has been adding up.  That damage is not hitting those at the top of our society.  They can fly private to their vacation compounds, sit maskless in box seats at the Super Bowl and ride out the storm while making record profits.  Regular Americans do not have that option.  They're feeling the pain.  That pain is not hypothetical.  Depression, suicide and drug overdoses are all skyrocketing.  The American Psychological Association says America is in a full blown "mental health crisis."  What's just as real but harder to measure is the damage to America's social contract.  Regular Americans have been told to lock down.  They have been told that their children can't go to school or that young, healthy kids must always wear masks.  They have been ordered to take the vaccine.  As all this is happening, they watch billionaires, celebrities and politicians party maskless at Hollywood award shows or in expensive restaurants.  It all adds to the sentiment that the system is not fair.

Federal Appeals Court:  United Airlines Vaccine Mandate 'Coerced' Employees to 'Violate Religious Convictions'.  A federal appeals court on Thursday [2/17/2022] ordered further review of United Airlines' coronavirus vaccine mandate, calling it "coercive" and reversing a lower court ruling.  A three-judge panel in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled 2-1 to return the issue to District Judge Mark Pittman, who previously rejected employees' request for a preliminary junction.  In his opinion, Pittman was sympathetic to employees but said he was bound by court precedent, and he declined the request because employees could not prove "irreparable harm," one of four variables which need to be satisfied in court in order for a judge to issue an injunction and preserve the "status quo" during litigation.  Federal Judges Andy Oldham and Jennifer Elrod reversed Pittman's ruling, pointing to the "rather unique" nature of the case.

Boston abruptly lifts vaccine mandate.  Boston's new mayor, Michelle Wu, took the city by surprise yesterday when she announced that Beantown's requirement for proof of vaccination to enter most indoor businesses was being lifted "immediately."  This was particularly good news for bars and restaurants in the city which have struggled to enforce the mandate and seen their customer traffic (and profits) tanking over the course of the pandemic.  The reason she gave was yet another "following the science" speech, noting that the city's positivity, hospitalization, and ICU occupancy rates had all fallen below the previously defined limits.  Since that means that even the unvaccinated will now be able to go about their lives a bit more normally, Wu really should answer one pressing question.  What about all of the people who wound up getting vaccinated against their will?

More word vomit, more racism, more pork.  California Governor Gavin Newsom announced his new SMARTER plan yesterday.  It purportedly moves our state forward to a COVID policy that acknowledges that the CCP virus is endemic rather than pandemic. [...] SMARTER stands for Shots, as in making more available; Masks, by promising to procure enough N95s for all; Awareness, in terms of having more-state infrastructure (my husband pointed out today that infrastructure replaces pork quite handily); Readiness, which again means throwing lots of money ($1.7 billion) at recruiting, training, hiring, and advancing "an ethnically and culturally inclusive HHS workforce." Then there's Testing, ramped up even more (why?); Education, AKA keeping kids in school (and vaccinated and masked), but also noting that $4.5 billion has been "devoted to improving mental and behavioral health for California's children and youth"; and Rx (treatment), which is again all about equity (distributing treatment resources and the non-specific "continuing evolution" of treatment).

Bill Gates Compares Forced Masking To Wearing Pants.  Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates appeared to compare state-enforced mask mandates to putting on pants while speaking on a discussion panel Friday [2/18/2022].  While speaking on a COVID-19 panel at the Munich Security Conference, Gates referred to the amount of "misinformation" surrounding his role in the handling of the virus to be "wild," before appearing to mock critics of himself, Dr. Anthony Fauci and other public health figures.  "You almost have to laugh about it.  I mean, you know, Dr. Fauci and I are just killing millions of people to make money," Gates quipped.  "You know, hydroxychloroquine's this miracle cure that ... he and I have masterminded, avoiding people saving their lives by taking this thing."

Why are the police we revere doing the tyrants' bidding?  The outrageous mismanagement of COVID as an instrument of population control will go down as the second worst political crime against the American people in U.S. history.  The first is the Hillary Clinton-conceived Russia hoax.  She and her cohorts belong in prison as do Fauci, Collins, Birx, and all those who pushed unsafe, ineffective injections on the millions of people who believed their lies about COVID.  Each of those bureaucrats abused his position of power over the people and has blood on his hands. [...] So how do we explain the fact that in countries around the world, Australia, the U.K., the U.S., France, Belgium, Austria, and Canada, the police, those who were not fired for refusing the vaccine, have taken the opportunity to act like tyranny's handmaidens rather than protectors of the people, their essential charge, the reason they signed up for the job?  In Canada, a few have sided with the truck drivers' cause, but the rest seem to enjoy the opportunity to roust good, law-abiding, non-violent protesters.

Ivermectin Doesn't Help Covid Patients, Study Finds.  Ivermectin, an antiparasitic drug used by former President Donald Trump to treat Covid-19 and promoted by some Republican legislators, does nothing to prevent the disease from progressing, according to a study out of Malaysia published Friday [2/18/2022] by the Journal of the American Medical Association, confirming prior studies suggesting that ivermectin does not effectively prevent or treat the disease.

Funeral Directors and Embalmers Alarmed By Weird, Freakishly Large Blood Clots Clogging Veins in Vaccinated Bodies.  Board-certified funeral directors and embalmers are coming forward to tell tales of horror featuring vaccinated bodies with veins and arteries clogged with strange, rubbery, worm-like clots.  Richard Hirschman, a funeral director and embalmer from Alabama, with over twenty years of experience in the field, has said in recent interviews that he had never seen anything like it until around the middle of 2021, after the mass injections of the experimental COVID vaccines began.  He says his colleagues in the field are seeing the same thing, and the numbers are increasing.  Earlier this month, Hirschman told Steve Kirsch, the Executive Director of the Vaccine Research Center, that in Jan 2022, 37 out of 57 bodies (65 percent) had these suspicious clots.

Canada Goes Tyrannical.  This week, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the lightweight, unpopular elected leader of a country with a 93% vaccination rate for those over 60 and a total vaccination rate of 84%, announced that he would invoke the Emergencies Act in order to crack down on the Freedom Convoy — a group of protesters opposed to government vaccination mandates for truckers.  Trudeau breathily announced that invocation of the law was in fact "reasonable and proportionate."  His public safety minister, Marco Mendicino, said that the actions were required thanks to "intimidation, harassment, and expressions of hate."  Why the government would need to invoke emergency powers in order to move some trucks remains beyond understanding; after all, the police had just removed trucks from the Ambassador Bridge, reopening that trade artery with the United States.  Meanwhile, provinces across Canada have already begun alleviating their COVID-19 restrictions, from vaccine passports to masking.

Texas AG Paxton Suing Biden Admin, CDC for Airport Mask Mandates.  Texas continues its push to eliminate mask mandates everywhere and anywhere within state lines.  This time, Attorney General Ken Paxton is going after the Biden Administration for "illegal" mask mandates in airports — it's time to "strike down" these requirements, he says.  According to the Daily Wire, "Paxton filed the lawsuit alongside the Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) on behalf of Republican Rep. Beth Van Duyne.  The case was filed against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Director Rochelle Walensky, Chief of Staff Sherri Berger, and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra."

Canada is destroying its banking system.  The problem with becoming a dictator is that madness often quickly follows.  Caligula is an example from the past, for he was genuinely insane and died as a result of that.  Closer to our time, so obsessive was Hitler's effort to exterminate Europe's Jews, he diverted resources from the Russian front, essentially assuring Germany's military defeat.  And in Canada today, we have a ruling party that's equally obsessive, this time in its determination to destroy all political opposition.  To that end, Canada's ruling class is willing to bring down its entire banking system.  Canada's truckers, who are more vaccinated than the average Canadian, nevertheless felt that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had gone too far when he required them to show a vaccine passport to enter their own country. [...] As a reminder, because of his and other Canadian leaders' insane COVID policies — for a virus with an average mortality rate of less than 1% — the entire Canadian economy was blighted, religious worship ended, international travel stopped, and the governments made every effort to coerce Canadian citizens to inject an experimental therapy into their bodies.

CDC quietly lowers early childhood speech standards.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has quietly changed their standards for early childhood development, as the effects of pandemic policies on children's development, from speech to reading to other basics, becomes increasingly more apparent.  Earlier this month, the CDC announced that new checklist ages for its important milestone lists were added.  These new ages added were 15 and 30 months.  The update banner at the top of the page points those interested in the updates to the developmental milestones to a Pediatrics article outlining the research conducted that resulted in the change.

Who's Best Situated to Figure Out the Truth about COVID?  Is COVID truly a threat to life on Earth, comparable to bubonic plague?  Are school closures and lockdowns really necessary?  Will vaccines protect us, and what about side-effects?  If this is a "pandemic of the unvaccinated," how are vaccinated people spreading COVID?  Boosters?  Really?  What is the truth?  Why is COVID so confusing?  First, there are ever-changing messages.  No mask, yes mask, two masks, avoid cloth masks.  Vaccination will stop COVID, except maybe not — we need boosters, several.  There is no natural immunity... well, maybe there is, but it won't protect you.  Except that real physicians say it will.  No wonder people don't trust Fauci or Biden.  Words are critical when seeking truth.  Since the outbreak of COVID, the meaning of common words has been spun and distorted.  Positive COVID tests are reported as "cases," implying symptomatic patients.  The vast majority of positive tests are people not sick at all.

'A new low!' Ottawa police reamed for warning dissenters what will happen to their pets.  Ottawa, Ontario, authorities, who already have warned peaceful, anti-COVID-mandate Freedom Convoy protesters to leave the downtown area or face severe penalties, appear to be threatening to hold the dissidents' dogs hostage and then schedule them for a fast-track adoption.  Or maybe something worse. [...] For supporters of anti-mandate demonstrations, which includes many truckers and others who are fully COVID vaccinated, these developments suggest that authoritarian regimes have vitiated police-community relations in the context of civil liberties during the pandemic era.  Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, and various European cities are unfortunate examples.

Broadway and the prisoners of Mask-aban — this isn't the show we need.  On the outside, it can look as though things are normal-ish.  In reality, we have simply adapted to a set of insane, unsupportable rules which look set to remain in place forever.  While thousands packed into the Super Bowl stadium last Sunday, schoolchildren in California, like New York, continue to do physical exercise outside with masks over their faces.  A New York friend relates that last weekend he watched his double-vaxxed son play soccer outside in a mask.  For the first time, parents were allowed to observe.  Also in masks.  Only to be policed by officials threatening to expel parents should their masks slip below the nose. [...] The COVID enforcers have to go.  Along with all the stupid, pointless, carefully demeaning rules they are making us live under after most of the world has clambered out from them.  What will happen to the mask enforcers when their empire finally does fall?

Lockdown Forever!  W.H.O. Warns Against Return to Pre-Pandemic Normal.  The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) warned Friday [2/18/2022] the global coronavirus pandemic isn't over until it says so, cautioning too many countries are moving too quickly in lifting public health and social restrictions.  The globalist organisation used social media to warn countries that lift restrictions to adopt a slower approach to the pandemic and follow W.H.O. directions, even as global infection rates continue to tumble.  W.H.O. medical authorities Mark Ryan and Maria Van Kerkhove explained the desire to return to normal was ill-advised and may sustain the pandemic, with potentially catastrophic outcomes.

The Church's Role in COVID Recovery.  In the December 22, 2021, Washington Post, an article appeared titled:  "Thousands who followed the rules are about to get Covid.  Despite following all the local and federal protocols, the author believed she engaged in some "wrongdoing" by becoming infected by COVID-19.  Many fellow citizens truly believed that if they followed the government prescribed requirements, they would avoid infection.  The dutiful allegiance to technocrats' edicts is the act of "true believers" and becoming infected is "sin."  Christian Churches need to help us realize that acts which have become irrational, divisive and coercive are signs of a cultish belief in idolized "experts."  Christians are uniquely suited to help others recognize that their behavior is becoming cultish.

Those Responsible Must Pay.  Thanks to science — the science of polling — we are now seeing our useless government coming around to the views that got people like us banned from social media just a few months ago.  Masks are useless, they now concede.  Natural immunity is better than the vaccines that did not work as advertised, they now concede.  What they do not concede is their own culpability.  We must thrust culpability upon them.  Our ruling class knowingly imposed disastrous policies that bore no relation to objective scientific fact upon us, and 900,000 Americans are dead.  Ten of millions more suffered economically and emotionally.  They were driven not by the imperatives of evidence but by the imperative of obedience — that we obeyed was the measure of success, not lives saved.  Dissenting ideas, like ivermectin, were not merely not debated.  The debate was actively stifled.  The dissenting ideas were suppressed as "misinformation" — which really means "unapproved information."  Now a study in Japan, hardly a voodoo backwater, says ivermectin works.  How many people died so that the likes of Fauci and the rest could beat down challenges to their orthodoxy?  And how many kids were broken by the lies about masking and "distance learning?"  They need to pay.  Not just at the ballot box either, though that must happen too.

Look at what we're allowed to talk about now!  I first heard that Vitamin D was a factor in Covid outcomes back in spring 2020.  Nearly a full 2 years ago.  Anyone who mentioned that outside careful whispers was immediately banned from polite and professional society.  The Karens of the world united to let us know that the Narrative had been decided and we needed to be good little subjects and fall in line. [...] Just think:  If governments had pushed fresh air, sunshine, and exercise — instead of those lockdowns that did nothing to reduce deaths but probably accelerated them — how many people would still be here?

The empire of compliance is, at last, falling apart.  [Scroll down]  The proliferation of useless rules, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, has fostered uncertainty, making people unnecessarily cautious in circumstances where once they'd have happily relied on instinct and basic good sense.  It's common to see people enter a restaurant, store, or other public facility wearing masks and then, seeing that others are unmasked, sheepishly take their own off and comment, "Oh, I didn't know what the rule was."  They're not worried about masking as a matter of health.  They're worried about not fitting in, about doing what everyone else does, and about being unmasked as a flouter of government commands. [...] States run by Democrats are scrambling to abandon their mask mandates.  They pretend that this is because the science has changed, but it has not.  Only the opinion polls and proximity to November's elections have.  These blue governments are merely getting a year late to the point at which Republican-run states arrived a year ago.  What is happening is that those who turned the crisis of the pandemic into an excuse to heap a backbreaking load of new impositions on the public realize that they have pushed voters too far.

As a public service:
Joy Behar:  I might wear a mask indefinitely.  She's 79 years old.  Given her risk profile, it wouldn't be the worst idea she's ever had.  Especially since she's had a lot of bad ideas.  The concern here isn't that Behar might mask indefinitely due to her age, which is understandable.  The concern is that she might mask indefinitely due to her politics, which would be indefensible.

A pandemic driven by politics, not science.  As we have been dealing with the COVID-19 virus for more than two years, we are now seeing the beginning of its worldwide decline.  One fact remains clear:  That in spite of the continued exhortation to "follow the science," many in positions of leadership have done nothing of the sort.  They ignored the science and chose to use politics to govern and justify their actions.  From the very beginning, when COVID-19, a disease caused by a virus named SARS-CoV-2, was discovered in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, politicians utilized "science" for political gain. [...] As it appears we may be finally turning the corner on COVID it should come as no surprise that a Johns Hopkins University Study concluded that "lockdowns have done little to reduce COVID deaths but have had devastating effects on economies and numerous social ills."

Project Veritas Drops Explosive FDA Video About Plans for Future on COVID Shots.  The latest release from Project Veritas is sure to get a lot of people riled up.  PV stunned Twitter with a bombshell report on Dr. Anthony Fauci in January, which managed to get their chief of staff banned.  Now, they have some explosive information on the FDA and COVID boosters.  It involves a video of Christopher Cole, who is identified as the FDA Executive Officer of Countermeasures Initiative, who allegedly is directly involved in the approval area.  In the video, Cole says that "Biden wants to inoculate as many people as possible."  "So you'll have to get an annual shot (for the COVID virus)," Cole continues.  "I mean, it hasn't been formally announced yet 'cause they don't want to rile everyone up."  No kidding!  Could it be they don't want to say this before the midterms, and have everyone get disturbed at Biden and the Democrats?  But, this is what he's saying is in the works.

Virginia Judge Strikes Down Loudoun County School Mask Mandate Effective Immediately.  A Loudoun County, Virginia, judge struck down the mask mandate imposed by the Loudoun County School Board (LCSB) Wednesday evening [2/16/0222], immediately allowing students to attend class without masks.  In a lawsuit that saw the administration of Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) join forces with parents against the school district, Loudoun County Circuit Court Judge James P. Fisher decided to grant an emergency injunction in the mandate after weighing arguments from parent plaintiffs' counsel, Attorney General Jason Miyares's (R) office, and LCSB

Two Young Boys Found Dead in Bed after Second Pfizer Shot.  Two teenage American boys have died after receiving the Covid "vaccine," according to an article in the journal Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine.  The children were found dead in bed three and four days after their second Pfizer injections.  The boys were pronounced dead at home and never given a chance to be resuscitated.  One boy complained of headaches and stomach complaints but felt better three days after the injection.  The other boy had no complaints.  According to autopsies that were performed, they didn't have corona, but they did have myocarditis.  The report suggested a hyper-inflammatory cytokine response could have driven the damage.

California Tyrants Self-Identify:  Only The Vaxxed Can Work.  It's not law yet, but there is legislation in California that requires all workers, even independent contractors, to take the coronavirus vaccine. [...] "Long-awaited workplace coronavirus vaccine mandate legislation drops today," Politico reported Last week.  "The sweeping bill from Assembly member Buffy Wicks would apply to all employees and independent contractors, regardless of how big their employer is, and threatens penalties to noncompliant businesses."  Wicks, a Democrat from Oakland, must have missed the truckers in Canada whose fuse was lit by a government vaccine mandate, as well as the Biden White House's failure — thanks to the Supreme Court — to force businesses to require employees to be vaccinated and regularly tested.  But then, she is a lawmaker in California, a one-party state whose "leaders" care little about individual freedom.  She is also a member of the party whose voters "support harsh measures" against the unvaccinated.

Manhattan Judge Tells Wife Of Man Dying With COVID She Won't Grant Emergency Request To Give Him Ivermectin.  A Manhattan judge has ruled that she will not force a hospital to give ivermectin to a dying COVID-19 patient after the man's wife filed a lawsuit against the hospital where he is being held.  Erika Quintero-Sherry has been fighting for Mount Sinai West Hospital to administer ivermectin to her husband, Benjamin Chernyavsky, who has been in critical condition since getting covid last month.

Don't believe what Canadian media tells you about the Freedom Convoy.  Hundreds of thousands of citizens gathered across Canada last week to support the Freedom Convoy that trucked across the country to Ottawa to non-violently protest what have become, for some, the most oppressive and fickle health regulations in the world.  Our Prime Minister denounced them all yesterday as swastika-carrying inciters of violence who promote "hate rhetoric" and are "abusive towards their fellow citizens." [...] The Associated Press in Toronto outright lied, claiming there was "little sympathy in a country where more than 80% are vaccinated."  Most in the crowds were probably vaccinated.  "Three shots & I still can't get a haircut," one man's homemade sign said.  This was about freedom.  And a people sick of moving goalposts.  "Many people were outraged by some of the crude behavior," the AP lied.  But there was no crude behaviour.  It was lying.  Our Prime Minister did this too.

COVID was always about control, it was never about the virus.  Has anyone noticed that the anti-liberty left has lost the plot?  Almost everyone knows that Omicron was the natural vaccine that they didn't have to force down our throats, and yet they act like it never happened.  If it weren't such a dire threat to our freedoms and civil liberties, their destruction and disarray all over the states and the great white North would be incredibly comical.  Especially since these are the same folks who deign to inform the rest of us how we should live.  Those of us on the side of freedom tend to forget that the anti-liberty left could never survive if they were honest and forthright in their intentions.  You could tell they weren't concerned about the threat of COVID when they did the worst thing possible in the middle of a pandemic.  Opening the border to an illegal invasion from around the world was bad enough, made even worse by distributing potential plague carriers throughout the country.

Unaddressed issues corrode America like battery acid.  These days, when it comes to news reports about issues that matter, a lot falls through the cracks. [...] Has anyone ever heard of any good data out there showing whether there has been a significant decrease in fertility/birth rates since the COVID vaccines came into wide use (or the COVID virus started spreading?  I can't think why there necessarily should be but the question irritatingly and ominously keeps surfacing out there.

Biden requests $30 billion more to help fund the COVID response:  White House sets.  President Joe Biden's administration has requested an additional $30 billion more in COVID funding to go toward the pandemic response.  Axios first reported the figure, which was brought up in a call between members of the Department of Health & Human Services and Congressional staff, adding that members of both political parties are skeptical of the amount with surging inflation and a ballooning national deficit.  'HHS's briefing today or this afternoon was a part of our regular conversations with Congress about various resources and needs including what is needed for COVID response,' White House press secretary Jen Psaki said when asked about the $30 billion figure at Tuesday's briefing.  'This is important because while we continue to have sufficient funds to respond to the current Omicron surge in the coming weeks, our goal has always been to ensure that we are well prepared to stay ahead of the virus.'

Covid is over.  It's finished.  No further expenditures can be justified by Covid.  Emergencies can't last forever.

Leftist Nonsense Is Killing Washington DC, And It's Time To Let It Die.  Exactly one month after implementing a mandate requiring proof of vaccination at even private businesses, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser announced that, as of Tuesday, there's no need to show your papers anymore.  By the end of the month, you can ditch the mask, too — unless you're a child hostage in a school or daycare.  It's a remarkable development.  Just four days prior to the announcement, in a hearing before D.C.'s Alcohol Beverage Control Board, the attorney representing the D.C. government affirmed the suspension of Big Board's liquor license because the sports bar refused to require masks and proof of vaccination for service.  Even after Bowser's announcement on Monday, the ABC Board confirmed the bar's license would remain suspended indefinitely.  "The appropriate outcome of this hearing is an indefinite summary suspension," the attorney representing D.C. said at the hearing just days ago.  "Their continued operation places the community at risk and cannot be allowed."  In just one weekend, D.C. absurdly went from persecuting a nondiscriminatory business for being a community "risk," to giving all the rest of the district's establishments the green light to conduct their business the same exact way and stop discriminating based on vaccination status.  But the nonsense cuts even deeper. [...]

FDA executive officer is caught on hidden camera admitting Biden will force an annual Covid shot that would be a 'recurring fountain of revenue' for drug firms.  Project Veritas claims it caught an FDA executive on camera saying Covid boosters would become annual requirements and that the Biden administration has financial incentives for pushing the vaccine.  The far-right activist group released a report Wednesday that includes edited video snippets from at least two secretly-recorded conversations in January and February with Christopher Cole, the FDA's executive officer for its medical countermeasures initiative.  'Biden wants to inoculate as many people as possible,' Cole said during a February 3 conversation inside a restaurant, according to footage obtained by Veritas.  'I think it's going to be a gradual thing.  Schools are going to mandate it.

I wonder if the Daily Mail has ever called anybody a "far-left activist."

CDC Says 10% Of COVID Swabs Sent to Genome Lab, Raising Privacy Questions.  If you took a COVID-19 PCR test, there's a chance your swab may have been sent to scientists around the globe for genomic sequencing analysis, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.  In a tweet, the CDC said five to 10 percent of COVID PCR tests are sent to labs for mapping "genomic sequencing."  Genomic sequencing is a process used to analyze the genetic makeup of viruses.  However, the announcement made by the CDC has sparked human DNA privacy questions.

How Vaccine Mandates Subvert Personal Integrity.  Usually, we live our daily lives not having to make immobilizing decisions that sever aspects of who we are in any fundamental way.  Typically, we wake up, have something to eat, go to work, handle occupational challenges presented to us and eventually allow some leisure time.  But a demand to choose between two or more features that relate to a healthy, fully functioning sense of self is not usually something we come across.  Since the Left is well known for avoiding debate, well-established data, and reasoned argument, it comes as no surprise that the weapon of force is one of its primary tools to supplant the individual sovereignty of free-minded people.  And with the opportunity for extended power that COVID has presented, a number of tyrannical leftists have forced a choice upon workers:  get vaxxed or get axed.  You will either get injected with an untested gene-therapy drug (they call a vaccine), or you're fired!  For the leftist, coercion is the ticket.

Email trail shows how Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins distorted public views on COVID.  In January 2020, the scientific world was startled with the breaking news of a novel coronavirus.  Thanks to a brave Chinese scientist, the DNA sequence of this virus was released to the world.  Upon reviewing this genome, several of the world's top virology experts sent emails to Dr. Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health.  These emails suggest that scientific leaders believed the virus possessed features that looked engineered — several even believing there was a more than a 50% chance it had originated in a laboratory.  Then something astonishing happened.  Over the next two months, many of these same scientists, federal grantees, completely reversed their opinion and stated in three separate scientific journal articles that the lab origin theory was impossible.  So, what changed their minds?

What Corporate Media, Health 'Experts' Don't Want You to Know About COVID-19 Mask Mandates.  Masks have become a flashpoint in the global response to COVID-19.  But what the corporate media doesn't want you to know is:  They don't work.  "I think it's one of the most consistent things we can see across locations, is that there's been really no impact from masking," Ian Miller, the author of the new book "Unmasked:  The Global Failure of COVID Mask Mandates," says.  "The data's publicly accessible.  It's all from [the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] or The New York Times or Johns Hopkins [University] or the World Health Organization. ... [People] are getting their information exclusively from either the experts like [Dr.] Anthony Fauci, who have been provably wrong over and over again, or from mainstream media outlets that have just done a really poor job of covering this and presenting the data."

Cancers coming back with a vengeance is very common after the COVID vax.  The DMED database shows the rate of cancer is up by 3X after the COVID vaccines rolled out. [...] In talking with Ryan Cole about this, he believes this is primarily due to accelerating existing cancers (ones people already know they have or recent cancers that people never realized were there) rather than creating new cases of cancer.  [Video clip]

The worst problems with our best judges and doctors.  Last month, Supreme Court justice Sonya Sotomayor was criticized for seriously misstating figures to push Biden vaccine mandates:  100,000 children were seriously ill, with "many on ventilators."  The exaggerated figures underscored an embarrassing setback for the Biden administration.  Corporate media, rightfully, pointed out that Sotomayor's claims were egregious.  Even the Washington Post weighed in, giving the Justice "four Pinocchios" for her false statements.  Only a few weeks prior to the justice's distorted assertion of COVID-19 effects on children, UNC Chapel Hill's Department of Pediatrics published its second dance video.  Masked physicians, one sporting a velour suit coat with multiple necklaces, were filmed dancing to Earth, Wind, & Fire's "September."  The UNC Pediatrics announcement alongside the video read, "[L]ove reveals itself every day as we strive to deliver culturally sensitive care to all we serve in our beautiful State."  The UNC Department of Pediatrics extols Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Illinois Court Halts Mask and Vaccine/Testing Rules for Schools Across the State.  On Friday February 4, the Circuit Court in Sangamon County Illinois issued a state-wide Temporary Restraining Order, halting mask and vaccine-or-testing mandates for students and staff which had been implemented by 170 school districts.  Judge Raylene DeWitte Grischow noted that since the governor declared a COVID-19 emergency in March, 2020, there have been "25 serial disaster proclamations" and 99 executive orders related to COVID-19, touching the lives of every citizen in Illinois.  The folks that filed the lawsuit include parents of kids across the state, as well as teachers.  They are challenging the executive orders from Governor JB Pritzkers and the emergency rules that were set forth by Department of Public Health (DPH) and the state Board of Education implementing the orders.

How COVID Shots Suppress Your Immune System.  In this interview, return guest Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., a senior research scientist at MIT who has been at MIT for over five decades, discusses her latest paper, "Innate Immune Suppression by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccinations.  The Role of G-quadruplexes, Exosomes and MicroRNAs," co-written with Dr. Peter McCullough, along with two other authors, Dr. Greg Nigh and Dr. Anthony Kyriakopoulos.  Previously, Nigh and Seneff co-wrote an entire paper detailing the differences between the spike protein and the COVID jab spike protein.  In a non-peer-reviewed research paper just this week published on the pre-print service authorea, they and their other co-authors delve deeply into the mechanisms of the COVID shots, showing how they absolutely, in no way, shape or form, are safe or effective.  The shots actually suppress your innate immune system.

Pharma Liability Shields Could Be at Risk if Fraud is Found, says Former Blackrock Investment Executive.  If Pfizer and the FDA do not release the data on their clinical trials, former Blackrock & Hedge Fund Guru Edward Dowd says he is assuming fraud, and Fraud Eviscerates all Contracts, that's case-law.  Dowd says that big pharma is supposed to be one of the most regulated industries, particularly with the Food and drug administration (FDA) however, after touting that the jabs are safe and also effective, their blanket immunity from liability may no longer apply if fraud is found to have occurred.  This could be game over for companies such as Moderna and other mRNA manufacturers, as big insurance is prepping to "square off" with big pharma over life insurance pay-outs linked to the COVID gene therapy jab, according to the Equity Investment Executive Edward Dowd.  Pfizer received blanket immunity from liability through the EUA, however, it is looking like this product is deadly according to Dowd, yet it is others who are being financially burdened.

Argentina: Researchers Explain the Nanotechnology Found in Covid Injections.  In a presentation to the Chilean radio station El Mirador del Gallo, Argentine doctor Martín Monteverde presented the analyses carried out by Corona2Inspect researchers on the microtechnology found in Cansino, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Sinopharm, and Sputnik "vaccines."  In June 2021 graphene was discovered in Covid "vaccines" by Spanish scientist Dr. Pablo Campra.  Since then, graphene and nanotechnology has been found in Covid injections by doctors, scientists and researchers in the United States of America, Poland, Germany, Austria, Chile, Argentina and New Zealand.  Argentina's Dr. Monteverde and other researchers carried out microscopic analyses of vials from the five "vaccine" types.  He then sent these images to Corona2Inspect to further analyse.  Corona2Inspect returned the images with their comments identifying what the objects the images were showing.

Technocrat Vaccinators Have No Intention To Stop Vaccinating.  Many experts have sounded the alarm that the COVID-19 pandemic was all about the shot and a larger agenda to impose totalitarian control worldwide.  Already, one shot has turned into two doses and a third booster.  A fourth booster is also being discussed, including by Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel, who said that the efficacy of the third shot is likely to decline over several months, necessitating another shot soon thereafter.  "I will be surprised when we get that data in the coming weeks that it's holding nicely over time — I would expect that it's not going to hold great," Bancel said in an interview with Goldman Sachs.4 Conveniently, Moderna is working on an Omicron-specific jab that they hope to release as early as March 20225 — and this is only the beginning.

Canadian Truckers unite against Marxist state policy.  In Canada, one of the biggest revolutions is happening, and it's still not finished, but shame on the media for not covering it to call attention to it.  The event should be a headline story when there were up to 50,000 truckers and 1.4 [million] people headed to the parliament in Ottawa, vowing to stay there until Trudeau resigns, or they give us back all of our freedoms and rights."  At a Trump rally in Texas on Saturday, January 29, 2022, Trump praised the Canadian Truckers and called on Congress to rehire every soldier or Marine fired by Joe Biden over vaccine mandates.  The nationwide movement was launched in protest of a federal vaccine mandate that came into effect January 15, requiring all commercial truck drivers crossing into Canada to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19.  The federal vaccine mandate for truckers has already caused significant supply chain chaos, with delays and shortages affecting many regions across the country.

Nearly 35,000 Reports of COVID Vaccine Injuries Among 5- to 17-Year-Olds, CDC Data Show.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) today released new data showing a total of 1,071,856 reports of adverse events following COVID vaccines were submitted between Dec. 14, 2020, and Jan. 21, 2022, to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).  VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S.  The data included a total of 22,607 reports of deaths — an increase of 414 over the previous week — and 178,994 reports of serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time period — up 4,130 compared with the previous week.  Excluding "foreign reports" to VAERS, 740,000 adverse events, including 10,316 deaths and 67,496 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020, and Jan. 21, 2022.

The Nefarious Goal Behind Covid Testing.  Everything about this pandemic was carefully planned and anyone who doesn't see it either hasn't bothered researching it properly (and doesn't care) or knows full well what's going on (and doesn't care or is a part of it). [...] A recent article in the Washington Free Beacon said that "in announcing the contract with iHealth and two other companies, the Department of Defense said the administration will purchase almost 400 million kits in a deal that totaled nearly $2 billion.  Rep. Don Bacon (R., Neb.) called the arrangement with a Chinese manufacturer "ridiculous" given China has "not been transparent one iota on what happened at Wuhan."  Prior to the Pentagon contract, the FDA in December approved iHealth's request to manufacture at-home COVID-19 tests for Americans."  Imagine the irony of the United States Department of Defense ordering these testing kits from China.  I mean, it just boggles the mind.  Always siding with China, Anthony Fauci said in December that we simply had to purchase these testing kits from China because American manufacturers were already "going full speed," but somehow, we are just inadequate in our production abilities. [...] Adding insult to injury, not only are we subjecting ourselves and our children to the humiliating process of taking these tests, but we are buying this snake oil from the country that got us into this mess in the first place.

COVID-19 Death Data from States Called into Question.  Questions about the reliability of COVID-19 death counts, case numbers, and test results raised throughout the pandemic remain unanswered, leading to inflated mortality statistics, say officials and researchers.  Colorado health officials changed procedures for cause of death determinations during the pandemic, leading to inaccurate COVID case and mortality numbers, says Sen. Scott Jensen (R-Chaska).  "When the Department of Health (and Human Services) and the CDC decided to change the rules that had been in place for 17 years by encouraging the diagnosis of COVID-19 in situations that we never would have otherwise, they were abandoning their long-held commitment to precisely identifying the inciting or the initiating event that would lead to a sequence of events that would lead to a person's demise," Jensen told Fox News on January 2, 2021.

38,983 Deaths and 3,530,362 Injuries Following COVID Shots in European Database.  The European (EEA and non-EEA countries) database of suspected drug reaction reports is EudraVigilance, verified by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), and they are now reporting 38,983 fatalities, and 3,530,362 injuries following injections of four experimental COVID-19 shots:
  •   COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE MODERNA (CX-024414)
  •   COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE PFIZER-BIONTECH
  •   COVID-19 VACCINE ASTRAZENECA (CHADOX1 NCOV-19)
  •   COVID-19 VACCINE JANSSEN (AD26.COV2.S)
From the total of injuries recorded, almost half of them (1,672,872 ) are serious injuries.

Sweden joins others in announcing end of virus restrictions.  Sweden on Thursday joined other European nations in saying it will remove coronavirus restrictions.  "It is time to open Sweden again," said Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson, announcing the restrictions would be removed [beginning on] Feb. 9.

12 Countries Roll Back COVID Restrictions, Israel Scraps 'Green Pass'.  Europe is accelerating steps to roll back COVID restrictions as efforts to control the spread of the virus have failed and countries downgrade the threat posed by SARS-CoV-2.  Sweden and Switzerland joined Denmark, Norway, Finland, Ireland, The Netherlands, Italy, Lithuania, France and the UK in announcing they will lift COVID restrictions and open up their countries.  Top Israeli officials also announced this week they are abolishing the country's "Green Pass" COVID vaccine passport for restaurants, hotels, gyms and theaters.  The policy update will take effect Feb. 6, Prime Minister Naftali Bennet's government said, pending approval by a parliamentary committee.  Israel's proof-of-vaccination policy will remain in effect for events such as parties or weddings.

DHS: Here is a list of top COVID misinformation spreaders you should investigate ASAP.  DHS is getting tough on COVID misinformation spreaders, i.e., people who spread information that "undermines public trust in government institutions." Since DHS has finite resources to pursue all these perpetrators, as a public service, I have created a list of what I believe are some of the country's top misinformation spreaders.  I sincerely hope that the DHS will focus their efforts on these individuals since they have made statements and/or taken actions (or refused to take action) that result in the undermining of public trust in US government institutions.  It is extremely easy to tell who is telling the truth here: it's the people who are not afraid of debate.  The one thing everyone on our list has in common is that they will never agree to debate anyone with opposing views.  These people need to be stopped now and I'm grateful that DHS is finally taking this seriously as innocent lives are being lost.

Does watching the news actually make us stupider?  It's hard to think logically about COVID if you don't know the actual risks.  I had a parent who was happy that her (healthy, minimal COVID-risk) kid was out of school as she felt COVID could kill him.  When I asked what he was doing with the extra time off, she replied that he was spending more time riding his ATV.  Over 50 kids die per year in Canada on ATV's — most of them previously well — whereas only 27 have died of COVID since the beginning of the pandemic — about 13 per year — most of them with significant pre-existing conditions.

The Most Comprehensive List of U.S Lawsuits on COVID Vaccines, Mandates and Treatments.  Hundreds of lawsuits have been filed since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic over vaccines, mandates, lack of access to inexpensive and effective treatments, natural immunity, informed consent and more.  These challenges have been brought in both state and federal courts by attorney generals, individuals and entities seeking to preserve the liberties and individual freedoms of Americans.

Revenge of the Covid Moms.  Maud Maron hates the whole you-gotta-show-your-vaccine-passport-to-get-into-a-restaurant thing, and she thinks masking indoors is atrocious, but this is bright blue New York City, so fine.  It's just, "when Kathy Hochul" — the governor — "gets on the screen, talking about how she wants to protect us and keep the masks in schools, she doesn't have a [...] mask on her face, and I'm so sick of politicians who take the mask off their face to tell me to put the mask on my children — like how dare you?"  Anyway, that's why she's running for Congress.

New Zealand's Euthanasia Bill for "Severely Hospitalized" Covid Patients.  Could the following headline possibly be true?  New Zealand's Ministry of Health (MOH) has confirmed that COVID-19 patients may be eligible for assisted suicide[.]  If so, it is something Americans have not heard about in the media from the down under country of New Zealand.  Most Americans would cringe if privy to such a headline, yet it is true. [...] Additionally, the government will pay about $1087 to doctors for each patient they euthanize, according to Stuff, the island nation's most popular newspaper.

Fauci's gain-of-function conspiracy and why I'll continue to hold him, his allies accountable.  In January, I asked Dr. Anthony Fauci a pretty basic question:  "Do you really think it's appropriate to use your $420,000 salary to attack scientists that you disagree with?"  Given Dr. Fauci's theatrical outburst and deflection in response to my question, I think I hit a nerve.  Answering that question truthfully, which he is legally compelled to do when speaking before Congress, would have meant illuminating the deceitful game he and National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins have been playing about COVID's origins and their support of the type of dangerous research that could have led to the pandemic.

Gov. Newsom announces no change to school masking policy because unions said no.  Last Wednesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom said changes to the state's school mask mandate would be coming soon.  The state's indoor mask mandate for the vaccinated ends Tuesday and the expectation reported at several news sites was that a change to the school policy would be announced today.  But today [2/14/2022] came and instead of announcing a change, Newsome sent California's HHS Secretary out to issue a two week delay: [...] So why the change?  There's really no doubt about that.  California's teacher's unions demanded more time and as always they got what they wanted.

Germany's plan for [a] vaccination mandate [is] losing momentum.  Germany's plans to introduce a general vaccination mandate this spring are faltering, as a growing number of politicians question if it will find a majority in parliament.  The Bundestag was originally due to debate motions in favour and against mandatory vaccinations this week, after the chancellor, Olaf Scholz, indicated he considered such a step necessary to cope with a possible resurgence of the virus in the next few months.  But the timetable that was meant to see a mandate passed in March has already begun to slip, as a Free Democratic party (FDP) politician said his third-way motion proposing mandatory vaccinations for those aged 50 and over would be submitted with a delay.

Enjoy This Supercut of Maskless Celebrities Violating SoFi Stadium's Mandate.  Celebrities rolled out for Super Bowl 56 at LA's SoFi stadium — but not many of them felt it was important to adhere to the venue's mask policy.  Sure, they'll turn around and support masking your children — the lowest risk group of all — but they'd rather not wear an unsightly mask.  Enjoy this supercut, posted by radio host Clay Travis, of celebs' smiling, hypocritical faces.  "Here's the video of every celebrity without a mask during the Super Bowl.  But every kid in California will have to be wearing them tomorrow in school.  They must all be holding their breaths the entire game," Travis tweeted with the video.

NYC fires more than 1,000 workers over vaccine mandate.  New York City fired more than a thousand workers who failed to comply with the city's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, the mayor's office said Monday [2/14/2022].  The 1,430 workers who lost their jobs represent less than 1% of the 370,000-person city workforce and are far fewer terminations than expected before a Friday deadline to get the shots.  The city sent notices in late January to up to 4,000 workers, saying they had to show proof they got at least two doses of the vaccine or else they'd lose their jobs.

NYC Mayor fires more than 1,400 unvaxxed workers.  In New York City, the deadline for city workers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID has come and gone.  Those who failed to comply were previously informed that if they continued in their refusals, they would face disciplinary action up to and including the termination of their employment.  According to records that the city released yesterday, they weren't kidding.  The new Mayor of Gotham authorized the dismissal of more than 1,400 workers.  The newly unemployed include both first responders and public school teachers and staff members.  And depending on the outcome of a review of exemption requests, the number could climb much, much higher.

FDA Slows Approval Of Affordable Cancer Drug In The Name Of Racial 'Equity'.  An effective and more affordable treatment for lung cancer may not gain approval after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) complained about the lack of black people in its clinical trial, with a top FDA cancer official repeatedly noting in a meeting that it is Black History Month.  Eli Lilly and a Chinese partner called Innovent believe the drug, known as Tyvyt or sintilimab, could extend the lives of those suffering with late-stage non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and be more affordable than other treatments.  The clinical trial patients were Asian because the trial was conducted in China.

Two high schools sudden deaths on the same day.  Two healthy high school basketball players died suddenly on the same day.  Cameran Wheatley, a 17-year-old senior at Bremen High School, collapsed during a game with Chicago High School on February 8, 2022.  Meanwhile, in East Texas, Devonte Mumphrey collapsed on the same day and died from a sudden cardiac arrest.  Devonte, 15, was a basketball standout who was nominated for Mr. Texas Basketball Player of the Week after scoring 45 points in a single game in January.

Ottawa police chief resigns amid anti-mandate protests.  Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly has resigned after weeks of criticism for his handling of anti-vaccine mandate protests that have paralysed the city.  Protesters have occupied the downtown core of Canada's capital for 19 days, halting traffic and enraging residents.  Prime Minister Justin Trudeau yesterday invoked the Emergencies Act as a "last resort" in response to the protests.  The Ottawa Police Services Board confirmed Mr Sloly's resignation at a public meeting on Tuesday.

Reports: Ottawa Police Chief Resigns After Weeks of Freedom Convoy Protests.  Ottawa police chief Peter Sloly resigned from his position Tuesday, multiple reports confirmed, after weeks of continued protests against Wuhan coronavirus restrictions by Freedom Convoy truckers, a day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked emergency powers.  Sloly, criticised by many opposed to the Freedom Convoy protests over his handling of the situation in downtown Ottawa, resigned Tuesday after alleged conflicts with colleagues in the Ottawa Police Service as well as conflicts with members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).

Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly Resigns, City Councillor Says.  Ottawa police chief Peter Sloly abruptly resigned on Feb. 15 amid large-scale protests in the city against federal COVID-19 mandates.  Sloly issued a statement on social media confirming his resignation. [...] The protests were initiated by truck drivers opposed to COVID-19 vaccination mandates for cross-border travel.  As convoys of truckers made their way to Ottawa many supporters joined the movement, which turned into a large-scale protest against all COVID-19 mandates and restrictions.  With the protests now entering the third week, many of the demonstrators say they intend to stay until COVID-19 mandates are lifted.  The city of Ottawa, province of Ontario, and the federal government have declared states of emergency over the protests.

NYC Middle School Teachers Force Kids to Perform a Pro-Vaccine Song that Looks like it was Sponsored by Big Pharma.  Another day, another video showing children being used to push leftist school teachers agenda.  Proving once again these leftists are doing everything they can to brainwash the youth into believing them.  Ironically, these are the same individuals who constantly yap about how lobbyists are destroying America, how corporations shouldn't be involved in politics, etc.  Yet here they are forcing children to carry signs with big pharma's names on it.  Our teachers unions are nothing more than Democrat controlled propaganda organizations at this point.  [Video clip]

Apparently the virus is dangerous today, but it won't be in two weeks.
Ontario to Lift Vaccine Passport and All Capacity Limits March 1.  Ontario is easing some of its COVID-19 restrictions on Feb. 17, and will be lifting all capacity limits and proof of COVID-19 vaccination requirements on March 1, Premier Doug Ford said on Feb. 14.  Ford said based on recommendations by the province's chief medical officer of health, his government will remove capacity limits in indoor and outdoor settings in two stages.  "Key indicators have steadily improved at the peak of Omicron wave," Ford said at a press conference.  "Because of this progress, we heard from our chief medical officer of health Dr. Moore two weeks ago, and again last week, that we were fast approaching a time when we could safely remove restrictions."  Effective Feb. 17, capacity limits will be removed for restaurants, bars, and gyms.  Gathering limits will be at 50 percent for sports arenas, theatres, and concert venues.  And areas deemed "higher-risk settings," such as dance clubs, will have their capacity limits raised to 25 percent.

California is blackmailing students into vaccination.  For inscrutable reasons, California's children, the least likely to spread COVID or be seriously sickened by it, must still wear their masks.  This new mask policy will take place today (February 15, 2022).  There is no discernible reason for choosing this particular date.  There is no new science that favors ending mask mandates, but then there was never any real science that favored mask mandates in the first place.  Since the decision to force Californians to cover their faces was completely arbitrary, it seems fitting that a decision to free Californians from masks should also be completely arbitrary.  Were it not for the concomitant decision to keep children in masks while they attend school, most people would probably just breathe a sigh of relief with well deserved fresh air and get on with their lives.  Sadly, the state government has chosen to continue to muzzle children, in the most literal sense.  It was all right for Super Bowl fans to crowd into a stadium by the thousands without masks.  Nobody seemed to be concerned that the game was the ultimate super-spreader event.

No Government Can Make as Many Mistakes and Errors About COVID as Ours Did, It Requires Intent.  [Scroll down]  The hallmark of the so-called public health information associated with COVID, going back to the earliest days of the "pandemic," professed a certainty with which we were all obliged to go along on pain of public ridicule.  For instance, look at the early models for disease spread.  These models, now proven to be so wildly inaccurate that they don't merit the term "guesses" much less that of "models."  Note that the purveyors of those "models" have suffered no professional or financial or penal [...] consequences, their models are still quoted, and we are still supposed to take them seriously.  A quick look back and we soon have an extensive list of things that were fed to us as "facts" and have since been proven wrong.  For instance:  Masks.  We've been told to wear a mask, don't wear a mask, wear two masks, wear masks when walking through restaurants but not when sitting.

Newton, the Third Law of Motion, and Canadian Truckers.  Governments in Canada, New Zealand, and Australia have been three of the worst offenders when it comes to attacking citizens' basic liberties.  To be sure, while most countries in the world have experienced varied degrees of restrictions, Canada has created one of the more potent cocktails of lockdowns, mask requirements, social distancing requirements, vaccine mandates, vaccine passport mandates, travel restrictions, contact tracing, quarantining, surveillance and policing.  Canada, notoriously has become one of the first to take steps towards building COVID camps.  The Canadian government announced last summer that it was funding the construction of four "isolation sites" where "people who have COVID-19 — or have been exposed to it — access safe isolation accommodations to keep themselves and their community safe."  Translation:  The government is building camps where people who test positive can be coerced into "voluntarily" leaving their own homes and placed in sites under lock-and-key until they check after being deemed by the government no longer a threat to public health and safety.

Joe Biden, Alchemist?  [Scroll down]  After attempting for political purposes during the 2020 campaign to question the efficacy and safety of the Trump Operation Warp Speed vaccinations, Biden and Harris upon inauguration claimed them as their own.  They continued their earlier misinformation that the former president was responsible for 100 percent of COVID deaths during his presidency.  And they did so because they were assured that the now plagiarized vaccination programs (Biden and Harris were both vaccinated shortly after being elected) would simply end the pandemic.  Biden being Biden, he then foolishly boasted that he would not so much end the lockdowns, as end the virus itself.  On Biden's watch, Omicron infected the thrice-vaxxed.  Its infectiousness hit even the masked and locked down.  Those with naturally acquired immunity had as good, if not better, immunity than the vaxxed.  In other words, much of the Fauci "follow the science" orthodoxy was revealed as irrelevant if not simply anti-science.  With the midterms on the horizon, and millions of American asking why their children were still unschooled, why those outdoors were still wearing masks, why public officials who railed the most about the need for masks were caught unmasked, and why the federal government was still firing soldiers and federal workers with naturally acquired immunity, Biden began to furiously alchemize again.  Now his party abruptly announces, "We will live with COVID rather than live-in fear of it."  Masks are now becoming passé.  Lockdowns, if not already ignored, are easing.  Biden is announcing victory.  Joe beat the now-waning Omicron.

The CDC Data Nobody Is Talking About Raises Urgent Questions for Bureaucrats.  Some of us are old enough to remember when Dr. Anthony Fauci told the nation that "herd immunity" may require 90% of Americans to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.  First, that is a complete revision of the meaning of herd immunity since it is not a static concept.  Second, while it may have been a legitimate goal to achieve near-zero COVID-19, all it meant was that 90% of the population needed to have an effective immune response to COVID-19.  To date, Fauci, the CDC, and the rest of the health agency bureaucrats have defined this response as having detectable circulating antibodies.  If that is the case, why is no one talking about two seroprevalence studies on the CDC website?  At a minimum, they raise questions about the public health response, the current pandemic statistics, and the immune response individuals have to a COVID infection after receiving the vaccines.  The two studies measure detectable antibodies in the population nationwide.

Levi's brand president Jennifer Sey gets fired for speaking out against COVID measures for kids:  Refused $1 million to 'stay quiet'.  Jennifer Sey, former USA gymnast and the brand president of Levi's has revealed she has been fired for repeatedly speaking out against draconian COVID restrictions in schools, and turned down $1 million in severance pay that she was offered on the condition she wouldn't publicly share why she had been ousted.  Sey, 52, has repeatedly spoken out against school shut-downs and mask mandates since the start of the pandemic.  On Monday, she revealed in Bari Weiss's Substack channel Common Sense that she has left Levi's — where she has worked for more than 20 years — because of its woke obsession.  Last March, she moved her four kids from California to Denver so that they could attend classes in person and have a 'normal childhood'.

D.C. Mayor to Drop Indoor Vaccine Mandate for Businesses.  Mayor Muriel Bowser is revoking the vaccine requirement for indoor businesses in Washington, D.C., effective Tuesday, she announced on Monday.  Under the order, private enterprises and certain public places will no longer be required to verify customers' vaccination status, although they can impose the rules themselves if they choose.  The mandate was first enacted only a month ago, effective January 15.  The city's mask mandate for indoor spaces will also be "dialed back" starting March 1, said Bowser.  While masks will not be required at restaurants, entertainment venues, churches, grocery stores, or other, similar venues, they will still be required in schools after that date.  Businesses can require masks of their own accord.

How the Corrupt Power Of Fauci And Federal Health Agencies Could Have Been Stopped.  Blame Congress for letting the federal health agencies harm the lives of millions of Americans in this pandemic.  Sure, people despair about the incredible amount of influence over Congress by corporate, narrow, and biased interests.  But the bigger problem has been the uncontrolled power of Fauci and federal health agencies.  Congress had lost its power to offer needed alternatives to actions by Executive agencies, namely CDC, NIH and FDA.  There is an important opportunity:  refund the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment, closed since 1995.  It may be the only way to curb the powers of federal health agencies that have killed and harmed millions of Americans.  This is serious government reform.  A number of examples will be given later on how OTA might have saved much of the pain, deaths, and costs of the pandemic.

The Global Covid Vaccination Campaign Is Courting Catastrophe.  From the closing weeks of 2020 through February 1, 2022, more than sixty percent of the world's population was injected with Covid-19 vaccines.  This means that in a period of less than fourteen months more than 4.7 billion people received at least one Covid shot.  Tens of millions received as many as four doses.  The first clinical trial of Covid vaccines was launched in Germany on April 23, 2020 with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.  The first country to authorize the use of the vaccine in the general population was the United Kingdom.  The UK issued its authorization on December 2, 2020, and this move was quickly followed by dozens of other nations.  The United States issued its emergency use authorization on December 11.  This means that the massive global vaccination campaign — which quickly reached a frenzied pitch — was launched less than 8 months from the start of the clinical trials.

Covidians Back Themselves Into A Corner On Forced Masking.  When you take into account the divisiveness, unscientific nonsense, and tyrannical madness that has gone into the mask wars over the past two years, the thought that it could have all been avoided with a simple compromise is astoundingly frustrating to say the least.  What, you ask?  You mean there has always been a workable solution to insane, hypochondriac mask nazis doing everything possible to force damp, bacteria-laden pieces of cloth over everyone's faces for nigh-on 22 months now?  Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, and the solution was so obvious, so perfect, and so logical that, ever true to Branch Covidian form, it has been entirely avoided by the powers-that-be ... until now.  That solution, of course, is "one-way masking," and the concept, which Team Reality has known about since the forced masking insanity began, is finally gaining steam among leftists who are ready to take the OMICRON off-ramp but aren't sure what to tell their more crazed, uh, risk-averse Covidian cultists.

Super Bowl Mask Hypocrisy Was on Bold Display While Kids in School Still Have to Suffer.  There were over 70,000 at the Super Bowl on Sunday and the stadium said they would be requiring them to wear masks in the stadium, regardless of vaccination status, for everyone over two years old.  They were even handing out N95 masks to people when they came in to encourage people to wear them.  There were Democratic politicians, as I noted earlier, including Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, holding his breath again, and Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval.  [Tweets]  This isn't the first time that Garcetti got nailed maskless at the SoFi.  But if you looked at the stadium, it seemed like virtually no one was wearing a mask, in particular celebrities, including LeBron James, Mark Wahlberg, Sean Penn, Magic Johnson, and Matt Damon.

Biden's Science Advisor:  Not One, but Two Scandals.  Over the past year, the Biden administration has achieved an ignominious consistency of scandal and incompetence.  There are not one but two concurrent scandals involving the now-former director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and Biden's top science adviser Eric Lander.  The first scandal is related to conflict of interest.  Politico.com. reported that Lander had significant investments in one of the vaccine makers while he actively promoted COVID-19 vaccination in his official capacity.

How do we follow the science if we don't measure the results?  It's time to determine how immune our population is.  This experiment with the COVID-19 induced immunity injections now requires an assessment of the results. [...] Let's look back at COVID-19.  It began with our government's medical bureaucracy, pushing solutions to achieve what mankind has never achieved before against an airborne virus.  The initial solutions proposed, masks, social distancing, shutting down the economy, were to last for two weeks to flatten the curve.  Then experimental injections rolled out with a focus on measuring the injection percentage of the total population, which is where we are today, along with measuring the number of cases, selected ICU capacities, and the number of non-coded/non-classified deaths that were lumped into a single bucket called "COVID-19 Deaths."  A classic case of presenting to the public activities as if they were results.  Useless metrics that only enable the power of government to cower the citizen.

'Leading Scientists' Warn New COVID Variants Could Cause 'Far Higher Number of Deaths'.  Yep, as Prime Minister Boris Johnson prepares to lift the final COVID restrictions in England, next week, as reported by The Guardian, "leading UK scientists" are (no doubt frantically) once again ringing the never-ending COVID alarm bells about [stuff] that hasn't even happened.  David Nabarro, a special envoy on COVID-19 for the World Health Organization — same WHO with which Donald Trump cut ties over COVID hysteria — piled it high and deep during an interview with The Guardian.

The Editor says...
[#1] Hundreds of things could happen to you this week, and some of them might kill you.  But they probably won't.  [#2] What does it take to become a "leading scientist?"

NYC Middle School Students Celebrate COVID Vaccines by Singing, Unvaxxed Kids 'Ain't No Friends of Mine'.  Just when you think the left's never-ending efforts to pit American against American over the COVID "pandemic" couldn't get any more disgusting, there's this:  In a New York City public school "holiday show," fifth to eighth graders were forced to sing at least one song against their fellow — unvaxxed — students.

The ruling elites of the western nations are now heading for political suicide.  They seized upon the unknown consequences of the new and fast-spreading Wuhan virus for political gain.  They used it to exceed their constitutional powers — locked down their citizens and demanded compliance with various vaccine mandates and treatment protocols and then clung on to those powers long after the deleterious effect of those mandates exceeded the virus's harm.  Never, to my knowledge, has any country before this quarantined the healthy along with the sick.  Never.  (And I remind you that while locking down the young, the robust, and the otherwise healthy New Yorkers, Governor Andrew Cuomo went so far as to quarantine the stricken with the healthy but most vulnerable elderly — the result was thousands of deaths of oldsters otherwise far less likely to have become infected.)  Never to my knowledge has the public health establishment so ruined its own credibility.  Doubt me?  Look to our own country for a prime and early example:  The CDC endorsing lockdowns while cheering on the BLM protests.

Washington's COVID Scam Killed Medical Freedom, and Americans.  Medical freedom or autonomy gives people the right to choose with respect to their bodies; physicians the freedom to do what is best for a patient; and bio-scientists the freedom to communicate with, well, everyone.  Washington has denied Americans their medical freedom in this COVID crisis, causing economic devastation and needless deaths.  Regardless of dire, fear-inducing life-or-death warnings emanating from Washington about COVID, it is simply a new flu.  Implying that COVID is an existential threat comparable to the bubonic plague is ludicrous medical hyperbole.  COVID is simply a new flu.  Risk of COVID death for the general population is approximately 0.17% and even lower for children.  Only the small percentage of the population with multiple, life-threatening, pre-existing conditions, is at significant medical risk from COVID.

New Homeland Security Terrorism Bulletin Targets Freedom of Speech in America.  [W]ith rare exceptions (think George Washington declining to seek a third term as President), the tendency of those in power is always to seek as much of it as possible, especially when it's combined with the ever-present totalitarian temptation of the Left.  A generation later, James Madison warned that greater dangers to liberty are found in the quiet and gradual expanse of government power:  "There are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations."  The response of the federal and many state governments to the COVID-19 pandemic illustrates this reality in multiple ways.  President Joe Biden cannot let go of mask mandates supported by scant scientific evidence, and his administration continues urging Big Tech to silence anybody on social media who says anything remotely critical of the CDC.  This has produced a situation in which the national Democratic leadership has succumbed to temptation and indeed has become addicted.

A Shocking New $800 Million Biden Scandal.  [Scroll down]  One of my friends and fans is a successful businessman who imports COVID-19 antigen tests from China.  The EXACT same ones Biden just bought by the millions from China, and from the EXACT same manufacturer.  But there's one big difference.  Based on what my friend pays directly from the manufacturer, it's possible Biden overpaid by $800 million of taxpayer money.  Is Biden an incompetent fool?  Or ... is this more Biden family corruption?  Did Biden, or Hunter Biden, or a Biden administration lackey purposely overpay by $800 million, so that Biden or his family could receive a $100 million bribe/kickback deposited into an offshore account?

Chicago's Public Schools Are a Threat to Children's Lives.  The Chicago Public Schools (CPS) system is failing our children from every conceivable angle, while the Chicago Teachers' Union (CTU) voted again in January to work from home due to the omicron COVID variant.  This vote left hundreds of thousands of students in limbo. [...] Data show that CPS students lost over two years of "education," not to mention the mental and emotional trauma created by the constant fear-mongering about a virus, masks and push to get vaccinated and boosted.  Children continue to have a 99.995 percent chance of survival if they contract COVID.  Young people have a better chance of dying from suicide, car accidents, and the experimental vaccine than from the virus.  However, CPS's newly appointed chief executive officer, Pedro Martinez, has continued to push the experimental vaccine, touting it as safe and effective protection from COVID.

Antihistamines may help resolve long COVID, report suggests.  Two healthy middle-aged females returned to almost their normal daily activities after taking daily antihistamines for long COVID, according to a recently published case report.  The researchers noted long COVID is a chronic condition when patients who are infected with the virus have persistent symptoms that extend beyond the typical time frame for the infection to resolve, but the illness currently doesn't have any evidence-based treatments to guide how to manage it.  "Most patients tell us that providers have not recommended anything that has helped," said co-author Melissa Pinto, associate professor at the University of California, Irvine Sue and Bill Gross School of Nursing.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu lit up on Instagram live by critics over vaccine mandates, COVID restrictions.  Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was lit up with criticism during an Instagram live video over the city's vaccine mandates and other COVID-19 restrictions.  Wu started up her Instagram live question-and-answer session this week addressing several coronavirus mandates in Beantown.  The stream did not go as Wu had planned.  Angry Bostonians unleashed a torrent of criticism at Wu over the COVID mandates.  "Why do you hate kids?  Teachers?  Cops?  Firemen?" one of the commenters said, while another accused Wu of "ruining" Boston.  Another user said Wu is "ruining our great city!"

Supreme Court Rejects Effort to Block Vaccine Mandate for NYC Schoolteachers Without Religious Exemptions.  The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday denied a request to block the city's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for employees of the New York City Department of Education who were not given a religious exemption.  Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who handles cases from the region, denied the emergency injunction filed by a group of public school teachers, supervisors, and staff employed by the New York City Department of Education (DOE), the largest public school district in the country.  Her latest ruling comes the same day as the deadline for the teachers as well as other New York City public workers, firefighters, and police officers to get their COVID-19 vaccinations.  Those who do not have proof of vaccination will likely be fired or put on unpaid leave.

They're Coming For You.  You Know That, Right?  A chilling Rasmussen survey taken only last month found fifty-five percent of Democrats surveyed supported fines for those who wouldn't get the COVID shot.  Fifty-nine percent of Democrats said citizens who wouldn't take the shot should be confined at home.  Worse still, forty-five percent of Democrats favor designated detention facilities for those who won't take the shot while forty-seven percent believe government should permanently track said "offenders."  Most disturbing, nearly half of Democrats think government should imprison those who publicly QUESTION the efficacy of the shot through traditional broadcast and social media. [...] It's not just anti-shot celebrities the left wants to crush.  Doctors who proscribe off-label use drugs are losing their jobs and reputations.

Booster effectiveness wanes after 4 months, but showed sturdy protection against hospitalization, CDC study shows.  Booster shots of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines lose substantial effectiveness after about four months — but still provided significant protection in keeping people out of the hospital during the omicron surge, according to a study published Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Researchers found the booster shots remained highly effective against moderate and severe covid-19 for about two months after a third dose.  But their effectiveness declined substantially after four months, suggesting the need for additional boosters, the study said.

We Are All Truckers Now.  As momentum from the Freedom Convoy in Canada mounts and works its way into the US, and similar convoys spring up in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, people are collectively standing up to two years of COVID restrictions, lies, misery, and abuse at the hands of our government masters.  And we owe it all to Canada's truckers. [...] And what's the reaction of the officials both in Canada and the US?  To pressure GoFundMe to cancel the $10 million raised for the Freedom Convoy; freeze out truckers and their children by having police remove their fuel cans in sub-freezing weather; arrest an old man for honking his horn; and starve out truckers and their families by threatening to arrest people who bring them food and drink.

The great Democrat COVID pivot is approaching.  Faced with a coming implosion, these Democrats and their strategists are coming late to a party that conservatives saw long ago.  Absent another black swan event in their favor, there is no way to maintain COVID restrictions without election losses that will be staggering, and possibly doing long-term or permanent damage to the entire party.  It is time to change course!  The Democrats and their strategists may realize it, so they need a narrative that can do that.  The trick is to figure out a credible reversal that could bolster Democrats in the next nine months and prevent a bloodbath election season for them.  Many Democrat incumbents haven't a clue about how this happens.  As it dawns on them, some are now choosing to "retire" before they are shamed by a loss.

FDA Rushes to Grant EUAs to Two More COVID Drugs With No Long-Term Safety or Efficacy Data, While Ignoring a Mountain of Evidence Supporting HCQ, Ivermectin.  Under President Biden, the FDA, which had for decades advocated for the use of inexpensive generic drugs whenever possible, is suddenly inaudible and has even spoken out against inexpensive, widely available generic drugs that likely ameliorate COVID symptoms, even though these drugs have decades of safety data behind them.  There are two leading explanations for this otherwise inexplicable turn of events: politics and money.  Let's start with politics.  Under Biden, the FDA has made it very clear for over two years that they do not approve of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine for treatment of COVID-19, saying there is "insufficient data."  They went so far as to discredit one of these inexpensive treatments on their websites and on social media, implying it's only for animal deworming.  By contrast, the FDA is silent as the grave when it comes to widespread off-label, long-term drug safety of puberty-blockers and cross-sex hormones being administered to 13-year-old kids that may render them permanently altered and infertile.

Open Letter to the Canadian Truckers.  [Scroll down]  We are now seeing shocking signals of desperation from our globalist, corporatist opponents.  The incompetence of the Party of Davos is becoming plain for all to see.
  [#1]   For the first time, we can clearly see that they are willing and able to collude with Silicon Valley to weaponize the banking system against us.  Taking 10 million US Dollars from a political fundraising campaign is something that most of us could not have imagined two years ago. [...]
  [#2]   The censorship is ramping up, and our opponents are no longer really trying to justify it.  The attacks on Joe Rogan are truly a desperate act.  To attack the most beloved media icon in North America has so much downside and again, shows they are coordinating.  Did you know that Spotify and Moderna share the same #1 investor?  "Bailey Gifford" Asset Management owns 11.5% of both companies.  And now we know that Neil Young has a financial conflict of interest because of the large investment bank that owns about half of the financial rights for his song catalog. [...]
  [#3]   So desperate are these conspirators, they've now literally asked the US Department of Defense to commit a felony; changing data in the Defense Medical Epidemiological Database.  Stupidly, it had already been released — and is now being studied by the medical community.  They were caught with their pants down, changing data after the fact.  My guess is that this deserves criminal investigation.

Hospitals Are The Worst Place To Go For COVID.  The worse you do in a hospital with COVID, the more money they make.  A killer drug is used in hospitals to treat COVID, because Fauci wants it that way.  The CDC guidelines are dangerous and hospitals don't care because they make much more money following them.  [Video clip]

FTC's Misguided Pharmaceutical Competition Policy Harms Public Health.  Most of the focus on government policy during the COVID-19 pandemic has focused on the various steps — and often missteps — of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  Yet behind the scenes lurks another governmental actor that may have an ever-larger influence over pharmaceutical development in the United States:  The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which regulates competitive practices and oversees merger activity.  President Biden came into office promising more aggressive enforcement of antitrust laws, appointing the young progressive Lina Khan as FTC chair to spearhead the effort.  Among the first targets of her skeptical gaze is the pharmaceutical industry, which has already become the subject of a multilateral Task Force investigation that includes not only the FTC, Department of Justice, and state attorneys general, but also foreign competition enforcement agencies from Canada, the United Kingdom, and the European Union.

DHS Says COVID Misinformation Is Inspiring Terrorism, But It Won't Provide Any Evidence.  The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refused to provide evidence to support its claims that COVID-19 "misinformation" and "false or misleading narratives" inspired violent terrorism during 2021.  DHS issued a terrorism advisory bulletin Monday [2/7/2022] warning that of the dangers of online misinformation, which the agency said has been exploited by "threat actors" and to inspire acts of terrorism.  "The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors," DHS said in the bulletin.  "These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence."

Justin Trudeau says 'everything is on the table' to crack down on Freedom Convoy.  Protesters blocking the Ambassador Bridge face a deadline of 7pm Friday [2/11/2022] to clear out, after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said that 'everything is on the table' to end the Freedom Convoy demonstrations after speaking directly with President Joe Biden.  A Canadian court on Friday issued the injunction to end the blockade at the key bridge connecting Windsor, Ontario with Detroit, setting up a potential showdown between police and protesters when the 7 pm deadline arrives.  Specifics of the injunction are being worked out, with a draft to be presented to the court when the proceedings resume on Friday evening

Canadian Army Major Blows the Whistle on the Treason of the Canadian Government Officials.  WhistleBlower Canadian Army Major Stephen Chledowski is ready to fight for the freedom of Canadians back home after serving in Afghanistan.  'These governments are now focused on our Children' he says as he explains that the governments throughout Canada are doing everything they can to harm the children while silencing anyone who points out the truth about the death jabs.  He then calls on other Canadian military members to stand up to the tyranny imposed by the tyrants running the nation.  Listen to his full speech.  'We cannot let freedom die with this generation'.  [Video clip]

NYC unsure how many workers will be fired over vax refusal.  City officials are still determining how many municipal workers will be fired for refusing an order to get vaccinated against COVID-19, Mayor Eric Adams said as the deadline arrived Friday [2/11/2022].  "This morning we had a call to do the analysis.  We are going to come out with the full numbers over the weekend," Adams said during an unrelated news conference in Brooklyn.  The mayor said the number of public employees on the chopping block remained unclear in part because "some people had their vaccine, took both their shots, yet they did not turn in their information."  The city has said that nearly 4,000 of the Big Apple's approximately 400,000 civil servants could lose their jobs.

EU medical watchdog probes link between Pfizer and Moderna's Covid vaccines and irregular periods.  Europe's medicines watchdog today announced it will probe thousands of reports of women suffering menstrual changes after getting Covid vaccines made by Pfizer or Moderna.  The European Medicines Agency's drug safety committee is investigating both cases of heavy bleeding and missed periods following vaccination.  It will look through all the reported incidents in the EU and clinical trial data, as well as review the scientific literature.

Sudden Death of a 15-Year-Old Basketball Player Who Apparently Had No Known Health Issues.  Alto ISD superintendent released a statement following his death:  Alto ISD experienced the tragic loss of a student-athlete during tonight's home basketball game.  Out of respect for the family and in light of student privacy obligations, the district cannot provide details at this time.  During the coming days and weeks, we will provide our students, staff and community the support needed to process this tragedy.  [Video clip]

Japan Added a Label on COVID-19 Shots to Warn About Heart Inflammation.  Japan has taken steps to warn its citizens about serious side effects linked to COVID-19 injections.  They've added a label to the jabs, warning about the risk of myocarditis — inflammation of the heart muscle that can cause symptoms similar to a heart attack, including chest pain, shortness of breath, abnormal heartbeat and fatigue.  The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states on their website, "Myocarditis and pericarditis have rarely been reported, especially in adolescents and young adult males within several days after COVID-19 vaccination."  Further, in June 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration added a warning to patient and provider fact sheets for the Pfizer and Moderna jabs about the "suggested increased risks of myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the tissue surrounding the heart) following vaccination."  Unlike in the U.S., however, Japan is taking measures to monitor and report all side effects to the unprecedented jabs.

It's Time To Ask:  Did Any Of The COVID Mandates, Closures, Lockdowns Do Anything?  Was any of it worth it?  Did any of the guidelines, mandates, orders, shutdowns, cancelations, lockdowns do anything to alter the course of the disease, or change in any way the number of people who died from it?  Was it worth the massive disruption to our jobs and lives, the education losses suffered by our children, the trillions in debt piled up?  Was it worth shutting down dissent by Tech Giants?  Or the unleashing of mask scolds?  Or vaccine passports?  Or the divisiveness all of it fueled?  After all, even with all that in place, Centers for Disease Control data show that more than 77 million Americans have contracted COVID, and 910,373 deaths are linked to the disease.  What would have been different if we'd done nothing, other than encourage people to use common sense?

Dr. Pierre Kory: 'Covid-19 Is Highly Treatable'.  New York pulmonologist Dr. Pierre Kory, an unapologetic champion of evidence-based medicine, has had remarkable success treating patients with ivermectin and other therapies during the pandemic.  His efforts to get the word out on this treatment protocol as part of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Working Group (FLCCC) have largely been stifled by censorship, ridicule and colleagues — brainwashed by the official narrative — unwilling to accept the science.  Kory spoke with Dr. Chris Martenson, host of the Peak Prosperity podcast, about his incredible experiences over the last nearly two years.  On December 8, 2020, Kory testified to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, which held a hearing on "Early Outpatient Treatment:  An Essential Part of a COVID-19 Solution."  He called on the NIH, CDC and FDA to review the expansive data on ivermectin to prevent COVID-19, keep those with early symptoms from progressing and help critically ill patients recover.

Father Plagued with Guilt after 10 year old Son [has] Heart Issues While Playing at School.  A dad from Ireland says he feels guilty for getting his 10-year-old son vaccinated after the boy reportedly suffered a nearly fatal heart issue while playing at school.  In a solemn TikTok video, Sean Eile describes how the Covid-19 vaccine given on January 15 almost led to his son's death two weeks later. [...] The man says despite the boy and his family never having suffered any past heart issues, doctors refused to acknowledge any possible link to the Covid-19 vaccine.  [Video clip]

Democrats Are Conveniently 'Done' With Covid Just In Time For The 2022 Midterms.  Now that we're in an election year where Democrats see their political fortunes slipping away in real time, they and their co-conspirators in the media have decided we should all take a quick break from "The Science."  Democrats in New Jersey, New York, California, Oregon, Delaware, Connecticut, Illinois, and Rhode Island in recent days have said to heck with the CDC and are beginning to loosen up their beloved restrictions and mask mandates.  Less than a month ago, the U.S. was averaging more than 800,000 new Covid infections each day, the highest number seen during the entire pandemic, and quadruple the rate of infections that occurred during its peak under President Trump.  But because case numbers are finally falling, New York Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney on Wednesday credited "Democrats' plan to fight COVID," which he said is "working."  Therefore, he said, "It's time to give people their lives back."

Canadian provinces lift COVID mandates amid Freedom Convoy protests.  No fewer than four Canadian provinces are set to lift COVID-19 restrictions amid the Freedom Convoy protests.  Hundreds of truckers have gathered in Ottawa in protest of what they say are draconian COVID-19 mitigation measures.  According to a Thursday [2/10/2022] report from the Associated Press, Alberta, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan have announced plans to reduce or remove all COVID-19-related measures.  The report noted that Alberta, for instance, "dropped its vaccine passport for places such as restaurants" and is "getting rid of masks at the end of the month."

'The View' hosts' most blatant COVID misinformation and panic moments.  ABC daytime gabfest "The View" has produced plenty of melodramatic commentary, viral moments and occasional outright misinformation on the COVID-19 pandemic.  Here are 10 examples.  [#1] Sunny Hostin suggests '1 percent' of youths who get COVID-19 will die:  Co-host Sunny Hostin drastically overstated the percentage of coronavirus deaths among younger people during a Tuesday [2/8/2022] discussion on the liberal daytime talk show over the lifting of mask mandates in schools.  Hostin said she didn't want her children to be part of the "one percent" of those who get intubated and die from COVID-19, but federal health data shows the risk of dying for those under 17 from COVID-19 is far less than that. [...] According to the CDC there have been 770 deaths from the coronavirus in children up to age 17, through the end of January.  There have been nearly 10 million known cases of the coronavirus in the same age group, making the death rate approximately 0.008%, with countless cases unreported.

Masks off?  Democrats try for a pandemic pivot.  Democrats are making a U-turn on mask mandates, just in time for the midterms.  It's happening among the party's governors, several of whom are easing up their masking rules as Covid's Omicron wave fades.  And it's happening on the Hill, where Democrats are suddenly lining up to call for rollbacks of the nation's most noticeable pandemic-era rule.

Polling gets Democrats to finally begin their COVID retreat.  Since early days, Democrats have pushed increasingly onerous regulations in response to the Wuhan coronavirus.  Lockdowns — which the World Health Organization disavows except in very narrow, short-term circumstances and which are unsupported by science — have dragged on and on.  Teachers unions kept schools closed month after month in blue states, and even children as young as 2 are being forced to mask despite no scientific support for doing so.  Indeed, masking has become a political statement, to the point that Democrats routinely report wearing masks outdoors simply to ensure they won't be mistaken for Republicans.

Unions battle as vaccination deadline for New York City employees looms.  Mayor Eric Adams has made his position clear:  city employees have to be vaccinated against COVID-19.  But more than two dozen unions — including police, fire and teachers — are asking courts to block what will lead to mass firings.  Angry municipal workers, who filed a lawsuit in Manhattan Supreme Court, argue that Adams' mandate doesn't specify that unvaccinated employees should be fired.  Instead, they argue, alternatives like weekly testing and remote work should be offered.

Can we trust the Dem reversal of masks and mandates?  As we approach day 673 of "14 days to slow the spread," it seems the left is finally coming around to the position that most conservatives have held for the past two years.  Following a few weeks of tentative support for less draconian mask mandates from mainstream media outlets and a massive Freedom Convoy of truck drivers in Canada who have simply had enough, blue states like New York, California, Virginia, and Massachusetts are beginning to ditch the mask mandates.  While they should be encouraged to continue ending the mask mandates (especially in schools) along with coerced vaccinations, it would be wise to note that the inspiration is not based on some new scientific discovery that the masks don't work.  They have no intention of giving up this position permanently.

Time to worry: the Biden government is redefining core principles.  [Scroll down]  The terrorists are no longer radical student groups seeking to blow up the government (groups such as the Weathermen, which Obama's mentor, Bill Ayers, founded) or Islamic fundamentalist groups seeking a new caliphate bathed in American blood.  The new terrorist threat is... you.  It's now official government policy that "misinformation" — which means disagreeing with the Biden administration, the media, and tech tyrants — is proto-terrorism. [...] As Thomas Lifson wrote yesterday, this "sounds precisely like a prelude to a totalitarian crackdown on political dissent...."  Regarding COVID, as Democrats are finally turning on masks (except for masking students, who are least at risk), we can confidently say that every single bit of "information" that the Biden administration pushed out was, in fact, misinformation:  The administration (and its holdovers from the Trump presidency) were wrong about the virus's origins (or lied about them), about therapeutics, about masks, about lockdowns, and about the vaccines' efficacy.  Everything they said was wrong.  But if you doubted or still doubt them, you are a terror threat.

'There's No Law': Physician Experienced in Investigating Biological Warfare Challenges Medical Board's Misinformation Allegation.  Though Dr. Meryl Nass, a board-certified internal medicine physician, has been untangling narratives of dis- and misinformation long before COVID-19, it wasn't until recently that her license was temporarily suspended under the allegation that she is now spreading it.  Her research has brought her before Congress and state legislatures to give testimonies on bioterrorism, Gulf War syndrome, and vaccine safety.  Throughout her career, she's consulted for international health and intelligence agencies regarding prevention, investigation, and mitigation of chemical and biological warfare and pandemics.  She spent three years investigating what had been deemed a naturally occurring anthrax outbreak during Rhodesia's civil war.  Nass was able to prove that it was due to biological warfare, with her findings published in a 1992 paper that marked a new achievement in scientific research.

How to prosecute Fauci and co. for COVID-related crimes.  It is a safe assumption that few Americans know about the December 6, 2021 filing with the International Criminal Court (ICC) accusing 16 high-ranking individuals of genocide and other related crimes against humanity due to their actions during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The ICC filing is on behalf of the people of the United Kingdom (U.K.) who have suffered nearly 160,000 COVID-19 deaths and serious adverse reactions to mandated experimental vaccines.  Among the accused 16 individuals are Dr. Anthony Fauci; Dr. Peter Daszak; Bill and Melinda Gates; Boris Johnson; and the chief executive officers of Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson corporations.  Among the seven individuals filing the ICC complaint is Dr. Michael Yeadon, former vice president and chief scientist of allergy and respiratory research at Pfizer.  This article suggests that the UK ICC filing can serve as a precursor and precedent for American criminal indictments of several high ranking individuals due to their COVID-19 pandemic related activities.

It Was Never My Job To Keep Your Body Healthy.  The mainstream media would have you believe that COVID being in the 'Endemic' phase is a relatively new period.  One that they're not sure how to handle because, if they were to explain it to you, they fear they would lose control over the narrative.  After all, endemic means 'forever'.  Sounds scary, but COVID has only been something to fear for those who allowed it to cause fear.  There are some who since the beginning saw the virus for what they believed it to be and were therefore un-afraid.  These people were likely to believe that they could simply catch the virus and develop the antibodies to fight future infections.  After all, it's what we've been doing as human beings now for all of history.

Disabled and immunocompromised people fear lifting mask mandates will leave them behind.  Madison Shaw left college in Boston for an online classroom as Covid spread in 2020 because she's immunocompromised.  She also had to flee New York City the following year as infection rates skyrocketed there again.  Now 22 and having lived in Newport, Rhode Island, for a few months, Shaw said she's wondering where she can find refuge next.  Finding a safe place to live and work with common variable immunodeficiency — a condition that limits her body's ability to produce antibodies and fight infections — is difficult outside of a pandemic.  Right now, however, it's becoming near impossible.  Even as the country's Covid rate remains high and nearly 100 people continue to die each day from the virus, the small comfort she found in mask mandates that some states' maintained and that provided a level of protection from spreading Covid are beginning to fall like dominoes.

Dems' Sudden COVID Flip-Flop:  It Ain't 'Science', It's Politics.  2020's "Fifteen days to stop the spread" has turned into almost two years.  And for what?  Lockdowns were a failure.  One recent study, conducted by Johns Hopkins University researchers and including results of 34 other studies, showed that lockdowns reduced COVID mortality by an average of just 0.2%, a negligible amount and hardly worth the trillions in costs incurred, both by government and the private sector.  Evidence for masking's effectiveness has been mixed, at best.  A number of studies show few or no advantages.  A recent "study" released by the CDC touted huge advantages for masking to protect from infection by COVID, only to note in a tiny asterisked footnote that the study was "not statistically significant."  Turning the nation into a national healthcare police state for a virus only a little more deadly than the seasonal flu — and even less so for kids — was bound to anger many people.

CDC director:  Now that we've got your attention ... nothing's changing.  Remember that non-alignment NBC News noted between the Biden administration and Democratic governors chafing at eternal masking?  When the White House hurriedly added a COVID-19 press briefing from its task force to the schedule this morning, most people expected to see a shift in the "science" to reflect support for blue-state rollbacks.  Instead, CDC director Rochelle Walensky delivered ... a heapin' helping of the status quo:  [Tweet]

Alberta concedes to truckers, ends immunity passports.  The truckers in Canada who have been protesting the requirement for immunity passports notched up their first significant win yesterday in the province of Alberta.  The Premier of Alberta, Jason Kenney, announced last night that the requirement to show proof of vaccination to enter businesses and engage in other normal movements would end at midnight.  Nearly all other COVID restrictions will be lifted by the end of February.  Kenney didn't cite "The Science" or any new medical data when making the announcement.  He simply acknowledged that the governmental COVID mandates "have led to terrible divisions" among his people.

CDC is a bureaucratic mess that should be abolished.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has just adjusted its recommended dosage schedule for the coronavirus vaccines — in much the same way the agency just adjusted its definitions of "vaccine" and "vaccinations" — in much the same way its bureaucrats have adjusted COVID-19 advisements from this to that, and that to this, for pretty much the entire time of the pandemic.  In other words:  The CDC is a mess.  A big ball of confusing, conflicting, politicized bureaucracy.  Once upon a time, conservatives called for the dismantling of the federal Education Department.  Perhaps it's time to consider the same fate for the federal health agency.

The Blue Stack Strikes Back.  Joe Rogan has found himself in the crosshairs of many of America's most powerful institutions.  Although he has long been a thorn in the side of progressives who object to his free-wheeling conversations on America's most popular podcast, the latest controversy was kicked off by an open letter penned by 270 doctors, health care professionals, and academics who complained about interviews in which Rogan and his guests express skepticism about COVID vaccinations.  The letter's authors demanded that Spotify "immediately establish a clear and public policy to moderate misinformation on its platform."  Although they represented a tiny portion of America's medical professionals, these public health activists were able to win widespread coverage from the mainstream news media, with only minor protest from conservative media, which pointed out that more than two-thirds of the letter's signatories were neither medical doctors nor doctors of osteopathic medicine.

House Democrats vote to block the Unmask Our Kids Act.  Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) introduced a motion in the House, H.R. 6619, that would require schools to remain open for in-class learning.  It also allows parents to opt-out of school mask mandates in order for local education agencies to receive funding from the Department of Education.  Two hundred and twenty-one House Democrats voted against Hinson's motion.  Known as the Unmask our Kids Act, H.R. 6619 is quite simple, only two pages long — "To prohibit the Secretary of Education from providing Federal funds to a local educational agency unless in-person instruction is available to all students and parents may opt out of student mask mandates, and for other purposes."

Students Serve the Loudoun County School Board With Lawsuits Over Forced Face Masks.  The Loudoun County School Board on Tuesday was presented with baskets of affidavits by several students during its meeting after a speaker claimed that the school division failed to respond to a Feb. 2 notice of "maladministration, and demand to cease and desist enforcing what they said are unconstitutional mandates on students."  An LCPS spokesperson confirmed that papers were dropped off, and that staff would examine them, but offered no other comment.  Some attendees could be heard in a video posted on social media claiming the School Board was being served.  [Video clip]

10 Most Absurd Excuses From Democrats Caught in Mask Scandals.  Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Democratic politicians have consistently supported strict mask mandates for normal citizens.  Yet they have just as consistently violated their own policies while attending parties, meeting with donors, or taking part in photo ops with masked children.  These Democrats appear to believe that COVID-related restrictions do not apply to important people such as themselves, but rather solely to the unwashed rubes they represent.  That is presumably why most Democrats have responded so indignantly after getting caught in violation of a Democratic-imposed mask mandate or some other COVID policy they claim to support.

How Vaccine Discrimination Caused Dangerous Hospital Care Shortages In Wisconsin.  Andrea Babinski never imagined she would be forced to get a vaccine to keep her nursing job. [...] Babinski isn't an anomaly.  She's one of an untold number of health-care workers and other hospital staff across the country who have been denied basic informed consent where it should be valued most, and have thus either resigned or been fired for their private medical decisions.  Meanwhile, while the expert class, COVID hysterics, and even the president of the United States repeatedly rattle off talking points about overflowing ICUs and the "pandemic of the unvaccinated," they ignore the real crisis plaguing hospitals and their role in creating it.  That crisis is a massively understaffed hospital system as qualified and willing-to-work medical personnel have been thanklessly terminated.  Thanks to coercive vaccine mandates, which the U.S. Supreme Court recently upheld, hospitals are hemorrhaging employees and patients are not receiving care they desperately need.

Why everyone should 'doubt the information' from Joe Biden's government.  On his first full day in office, Biden released his National Strategy for the COVID-19 Response and Pandemic Preparedness.  "Goal 1" was to "rebuild the trust of the American people" by promising transparency in federal health and scientific policy.  That pledge was quickly discarded like a forgotten campaign promise.  Though a Biden memo promised to end "improper political interference in the work of federal scientists," the Food and Drug Administration's top vaccine experts resigned in protest last fall over White House pressure to rubber-stamp COVID booster shots for all adults.  The FDA is seeking to delay fully disclosing Pfizer's application for COVID vaccine approval for 75 years. [...] Secrecy and lying are two sides of the same political coin.

Clueless:
Psaki says Canadian Freedom Convoy is more disruptive than the vaccine mandates they're protesting.  After a week in the half into the Canadian trucker convoy protests against vaccine mandates, the closest the Biden administration has in response is acknowledging the situation to the north as it stands, rather than having concrete solutions readily available.  It was earlier on in January of this year that trucking companies warned about the impact of a vaccine mandate on their particular industry.  But White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Tuesday sidestepped that in describing the Biden administration's response to the matter, by talking about how vaccine mandates have gone through overall.

School District Banned 'Disruptive' Dad From Campus After He Dared to Advocate for His Son Over Mask Mandate.  Over the last week numerous school districts have been in the news due to reports that administrators have left children who refused to wear a mask outside and alone, or are planning to label students protesting mask mandates as a "clear and present danger" to school safety so they can be excluded from campus, or count the protesters as truant, or charge the protesting students with trespassing, or deem the child "abandoned" and call Child Protective Services if parents take them to school without a mask.  What happened to schools excitedly embracing a student's right to protest and giving them time during the school day to do so?

CNN Calls Trucker Protest 'Sedition' and 'A Threat to Democracy'.  The Canadian government has declared a state of emergency because of the continuing protests against Ottawa's vaccine mandate.  The mayor has asked for 2,000 more police officers.  Ontario Provincial Premier Doug Ford has called the protest an "occupation."  The radical left agrees and wants their very own Jan. 6 "insurrection."  Prime Minister Justin Trudeau supports the right to protest — sort of.  Actually, he has an extremely limited view of what exactly Canadians can protest about.

The United States Government Is "Desperate to Hide the Truth".  COVID-19 was used purposefully to create fear.  That created fear was then weaponized by the same people in the same three branches of government for control and exploitation on an international scale.  Which includes all of the false mitigation efforts used as part of that control; and, more importantly, the use of a "vaccine" to maintain the architecture needed for the control.

Make Them Pay.  Yes, the Democrats who have forced our children to wear masks in classrooms for the past year (after forcing them to lose a year of school by plowing through the "remote learning" fiasco) are starting to come around and rescind the anti-scientific, harmful policies.  Yes, from states as Democrat-dominated as California, Connecticut, Oregon, and New Jersey, we're witnessing palpable liberation for children trapped in the government-run schools that have been mismanaged and neglected by a party beholden to the ever-powerful national teachers' union and their anti-child dictates.  Yes, even Golden Child Stacey Abrams was forced to submit a non-apology/apology after the devastating damage done by her hideous photo-op featuring 5-year-olds with cloth strapped against their beautiful, young faces while Abrams spittle-spreading mug was left liberated from any type of barrier.  Oh, wait, I'm sorry, she didn't apologize that she forced kids to keep their faces under wraps.  She apologized for taking a picture with the kids because she had to suffer political blowback.  What a queen.

Doctor Who Helped Discover Omicron Says She Was Pressured Not to Reveal It's Mild.  The doctor who helped discover the Omicron COVID-19 variant claimed that she was pressured by several government officials not to reveal that it was a milder strain.  Speaking to Germany's Welt newspaper, Dr. Angelique Coetzee, who is currently the head of the South African Medical Association, said that during discussions with European officials, she was told not to say that Omicron patients presented milder symptoms than prior COVID-19 variants.  "I was told not to publicly state that it was a mild illness.  I have been asked to refrain from making such statements and to say that it is a serious illness.  I declined," she told Welt in response to a question about her initial discussions about Omicron with European officials.  Coetzee did not elaborate on which officials allegedly told her to keep quiet.  In the interview, Coetzee said that South African officials did not try to pressure her, claiming that later, she was criticized by authorities in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.

Despite Buying $1.2 Billion In COVID Tests From Communist China, Biden Says We're Only Buying American.  [Video clip]

End of the road for malicious lockdowns.  Is a modicum of sanity about to reassert itself regarding the Wuhan Flu?  Are the people finally exhausted by their panic over the Fauci-altered coronavirus?  Remember those little bulletins that Mike Pence carried around, enjoining us all to to take "fifteen days to stop the spread"?  I think we're at about day 750 now. [...] Still, you are required by federal law to wear a mask while riding on public transportation.  Why?  Most masks do nothing except make it hard and uncomfortable to breathe.  They are badges.  They accomplish nothing medically.  But they do serve to announce one's compliance, and therefore one's virtue.  They say to the world "I care," even though the emotion is spurious.  Is that about to change?  Maybe.  A recent report from Johns Hopkins University shows what anyone not smitten by the Covid insanity knew from the beginning:  lockdowns did essentially nothing to lower mortality from the Chinese flu.  They did, however, have huge negative economic, psychological and medical effects.

New Yorkers strongly support COVID vaccine edict as mandates dropped: poll.  A majority of New York City residents say they agree with COVID-19 vaccine mandates — and they're angry with the minority who refuse to get jabbed, a survey released Thursday shows.  Residents polled by the CUNY Graduate School of Public Health said the coronavirus vaccine should be required for people who work in service industries and schools, and should be a mandate for indoor activities and airplane travel.  More than half of New York respondents — 54 percent — said they are angry with the small percentage of residents who have refused to get vaxxed.  The poll of 2,500 city adults was taken from Jan. 28-30 — shortly before Gov. Kathy Hochul lifted the mask mandate on businesses and New Jersey and Connecticut announced that mask wearing will no longer be required in schools as the Omicron wave of COVID fades.

Sweden Halts Mass COVID Testing, Even For The Symptomatic.  Sweden halted its COVID-19 testing regime on Wednesday [2/10/2022], even for those who are showing symptoms of infection, as many European countries end pandemic restrictions, the Associated Press reported.  The country's mobile city-square tent sites, drive-in swab centers and home-delivered tests, which each provided key data to track the virus' spread, have ended, the AP reported.  Only symptomatic health and elderly care workers and the most vulnerable will be entitled to free PCR tests moving forward.  "We have reached a point where the cost and relevance of the testing is no longer justifiable," Swedish Public Health Agency chief Karin Tegmark Wisell told the national broadcast SVT, the AP reported.  "If we were to have extensive testing adapted to everyone who has COVID-19, that would mean half a billion kronor a week (about $55 million) and 2 billion a month ($220 million)."

Oscars: COVID-19 Vaccination Will Not Be Required for In-Person Attendees.  The Oscars will be back at the Dolby Theatre on March 27, less than a year after the pandemic forced Hollywood's biggest night to be held as a scaled-down affair at Los Angeles' Union Station with strict COVID testing requirements.  In the time since, safe and free COVID vaccines have become widely available and mandated for everything from dining out to attending sporting events.  But, The Hollywood Reporter has learned, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is planning not to mandate proof of vaccination (with or without a booster) in order to attend this year's ceremony.  Instead, it intends to require a negative PCR test or a negative rapid antigen test on the day of the event.

Trudeau Gets Clown-Slapped in Canada's House of Commons, Sits Down and Pouts.  Canada's Prime Minister, Justin "Black Face" Trudeau was shouted down in Canada's House of Commons.  The poor lamb was trying to explain how he has "followed the science" in regard to Canada's ludicrous COVID-19 responses, which included locking up hockey nets so kids couldn't play and an 8 p.m. [to] 5 a.m. curfew in Quebec.  The House of Commons wasn't interested in hearing Trudeau's responses to Conservative leader Candice Bergen's questions, including whether or not Trudeau would "follow the science" and end the COVID mandates.  They shouted and heckled his response.  [Tweet]

Fauci says [the] 'full-blown' COVID pandemic [is] almost over in [the] US.  The US is nearing the end of the "full-blown" phase of the COVID-19 pandemic — and virus-related restrictions may soon no longer be necessary, Dr. Anthony Fauci said.  The White House chief medical adviser, 81, said all pandemic-related protocols, including mandatory masks in some settings, could end "soon," the Financial Times reported.  "As we get out of the full-blown pandemic phase, which we are certainly heading out of, these decisions will increasingly be made on a local level rather than centrally decided or mandated," Fauci said in an interview published Tuesday.  "There will also be more people making their own decisions on how they want to deal with the virus."  Though he didn't give a specific timeline for lifting restrictions, Fauci said it was likely to be possible sometime in 2022.

Sen. Ron Johnson Demands Answers from DOD on Medical Database.  Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has slammed the Department of Defense for ignoring his letters regarding a military health database that allegedly showed an increase in troop illnesses after the Biden administration's military vaccine mandate began in August, detailing his concerns in a letter exclusively obtained Wednesday by Breitbart News.  Attorney Thomas Renz, who is representing three DoD whistle blowers, presented findings from the database during a January 24 roundtable hosted by Johnson that showed a spike in the average number of troops diagnosed with miscarriages, myocarditis, cancer, and other serious illnesses from the period 2016-2020 compared to 2021.

Has DOD Seen an Increase in Medical Diagnoses Among Military Personnel?  On Tuesday [2/1/2022], Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), ranking member of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, sent a letter to Department of Defense (DOD) Secretary Lloyd Austin highlighting concerning reports from three DOD whistleblowers about injuries to servicemen and women potentially related to the COVID-19 vaccines.  At the senator's January 24 roundtable titled COVID-19: A Second Opinion, the senator heard testimony about data from a DOD database showing dramatic increases in medical diagnoses among military personnel. [... There were] increases in registered diagnoses in 2021 for the following medical conditions:
  •   Hypertension — 2,181% increase
  •   Diseases of the nervous system — 1,048% increase
  •   Malignant neoplasms of esophagus — 894% increase
  •   Multiple sclerosis — 680% increase
  •   Malignant neoplasms of digestive organs — 624% increase
  •   Guillain-Barre syndrome — 551% increase
  •   Breast cancer — 487% increase
  •   Demyelinating — 487% increase
  •   Malignant neoplasms of thyroid and other endocrine glands — 474% increase
  •   Female infertility — 472% increase
  •   Pulmonary embolism — 468% increase
  •   Migraines — 452% increase
  •   Ovarian dysfunction — 437% increase
  •   Testicular cancer — 369% increase
  •   Tachycardia — 302% increase

Across America, teachers are going to war against students.  The Democrat establishment, recognizing that Americans have had it with masks (especially as studies show that they don't work), is pulling back from mask mandates.  However, America's teachers are not ready to let their students — whom they clearly consider dangerous little vermin — return to class maskless.  Doing so might allow them to spew their child germs on those people whom state and local governments believe are fit people to oversee America's up-and-coming generations.  Suddenly, four strong Democrat-run states are abandoning school mask mandates.  AP reports that the governors in Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, and Oregon are lifting the mask mandates, whether by the end of February or sometime in March.  Meanwhile, CNN's resident Marxist doctor, Leana Wen (who once led Planned Parenthood, so you know how much she cares about children), suddenly announced that "the science has changed," and children should no longer wear masks.  In case you were wondering, conservatives have known about this changed science for at least a year now.  What's changed is the political scene.

Bombshell Email Reveals Plan to Arrest Maskless Students in Loudoun County.  School mask mandates have recently been lifted in New Jersey and in Delaware.  Massachusetts is also considering lifting its mandate.  But in Loudoun County, Va., students who attempt to enter school maskless could face arrest.  According to a leaked email, a security official for Loudoun County Public Schools coached principals on obtaining a warrant to arrest students who attempted to enter school maskless.  The email was sent on Feb. 1, by John Clark, the Director of Safety and Security for Loudoun County Public Schools to the district's principals.  "If you determine that an individual should be trespassed then a school admin representative, in conjunction with S&S Coordinator Rich Thomas, will proceed to the magistrate to swear out a trespass summons/warrant," the email says.  "School admin will meet Rich Thomas at the Safety & Security office and then proceed to the magistrate, which is located next to our office."  Clark's directive blatantly defies Gov. Glenn Youngkin's executive order empowering parents to opt their kids out of school mask mandates.

Another study to state the obvious:
Face masks make it harder for children to recognize people - study.  The COVID-19 pandemic has seen face masks become used by nearly the entire global population on a regular basis, but these masks make it difficult for children to recognize the people behind them, according to a new study from Canada's York University and Israel's Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.  Published in the peer-reviewed academic journal Cognitive Research:  Principles & Implications, the study used a children's version of the Cambridge Face Memory Test in order to gauge the ability of 72 school-aged children to recognize faces with and without masks.  The research built on prior studies, which had found that masks also made it difficult for adults to recognize each other.

Catholic school principal placed on leave, believes he'll be fired after making masks optional.  Parents protested the reported firing of a South Side Catholic school principal after he chose not to enforce the Archdiocese's masking policy.  Queen of Martyrs Catholic School principal Doc Mathius later told WGN News that while he hasn't officially been fired, he is currently on paid leave and doesn't anticipate being brought back.  Speaking to WGN News in a phone interview Tuesday [2/8/2022], Mathius said he didn't make his decision lightly.  "I just thought the time has come.  Somebody has to do something," Mathius said.  "In my little tiny corner of the world, I never imagined that it would create this kind of a stir."

It's not about public health, it's all about training kids to comply with government decrees.
Gov. JB Pritzker will announce lifting mask mandates for many public places — but not schools, source says.  As hospitalizations continue to drop, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker intends Wednesday to announce a lifting of a universal indoor masking order for most public places except for schools, a source familiar with the plan confirmed Tuesday [2/8/2022].  His immediate focus in easing COVID-19 mitigations will be in bars, restaurants, grocery stores, museums and other common indoor areas that draw traffic, which have all been under a mask mandate since August.  The governor is not expected to lift that requirement in schools, which also went into effect last August, though his authority to dictate classroom masking was dealt a legal blow last Friday.  That's when a Sangamon County judge issued a temporary restraining order against Pritzker's school-masking mandate, a ruling that now is under appeal.

American Civil Liberties Union Files a Lawsuit to Stop Allowing Civil Liberties in Virginia.  It's not the apex of institutional hypocrisy, rather it's the unmasking of political ideology.  The ACLU is filing a lawsuit today [2/8/2022] in Virginia demanding that mask mandates against parents and student civil liberties be reinstated.  The ACLU wants the Virginia mask mandate reinstituted.  The ACLU does not want parents and students to have a choice on whether to wear a mask.  The Washington Post headline is akin to folding the universe upon itself and looking back through the mirror:  "ACLU challenges Youngkin order mandating choice on school masks."  The civil liberties organization is arguing against allowing civil liberties.

And the Band Played On.  The political landscape of this current pandemic has no precedent.  From the outset, doors were inexplicably shut to known treatments and therapies and critical surgeries were sidelined while thousands died.  A citizenry panicked by sniffles and coughs lined up for imprecise testing that inflated cases by misdiagnosing and assimilating common seasonal ailments into the running COVID tally. [...] COVID appeared just in time for the 2020 presidential campaign.  Sensing favorable circumstances, Democrats turned polling sites into super spreaders and went to work clogging state and federal courts with hundreds of lawsuits challenging longstanding state voting protocols.  They blocked the cleansing of rolls that resurrected the dead to vote, mailed out tens of millions of unsolicited paper ballots, extended ballot counting for days, and carried out vote dumps in the dead of Election Night that created arithmetically impossible tallies and reversed political fortunes.  This was the shadow campaign that shielded a basement candidate who couldn't be trusted in public without a chaperone and an audio kill switch.

White House Defends Rights of Canadian Trucker Protesters As Justin Trudeau Smears Freedom Convoy.  The White House on Tuesday [2/8/2022] backed the right of Canadian truckers to protest Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the overbearing coronavirus restrictions and vaccine mandates.  "We of course support as you know the right to freedom of speech and protest," White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing on Tuesday.  "Everyone can peacefully protest, we fully support that," she added.

The Editor says...
The White House staff supports peaceful protests, as long as the protests are on the other side of the Canadian border.  Let's see how happy they are when the trucks roll in to Washington DC.

Tow truck companies unwilling to help police dismantle convoys, officials say.  Tow truck companies are unwilling to help police haul away the vehicles that have blocked border crossings in Coutts, Alta., and gridlocked Ottawa's downtown core, according to officials in both jurisdictions.  RCMP Deputy Commissioner Curtis Zablocki told reporters during a briefing about the blockade that had formed near the Canada-U.S. border near Coutts that the towing companies fear for their livelihood if they get involved.

It's an election year, that's why.
Mask mandates, contact tracing are going away, as states shift to new phase.  Blue state governors and state health officials who most vigorously embraced pandemic restrictions are pivoting toward a new era, using Omicron's decline to dial back precautions that have become a hallmark of the last two years.  Health departments from Oregon to Maine have over the last few weeks ended almost all of their government-run Covid-19 contact tracing operations and shifted the responsibility to the public.

Alberta Will End Mandated Vaccine Passports at Midnight.  The Canadian province of Alberta will be ending its mandated vaccine passport system at midnight along with other coronavirus restrictions.  During a press conference on Tuesday [2/8/2022], Alberta Premier Jason Kenney laid out his three-step plan to end coronavirus restrictions in the Canadian province.  On the issue of vaccine passports, the premier said the QR code system for vaccinated citizens will still be in place for businesses that wish to enforce it, though they will not be required to do so.

No connection to truckers at all.
COVID-19: Alberta's vaccine passport program to end midnight Tuesday.  Albertans are waking up Wednesday to what could be the beginning of the end of COVID restrictions in this province, despite warnings that the government may be moving too quickly.  Alberta Premier Jason Kenney announced on Tuesday [2/8/2022] the province's COVID-19 vaccine passport program will end immediately.  At an evening news conference, Kenney said the restriction exemption program has served its purpose, but is no longer needed since Alberta passed peak of Omicron infections about three weeks ago.

The article goes on and on, without ever specifying the source of "warnings that the government may be moving too quickly."

Virginia School Board [is] Served Subpoenas for Defying Youngkin Exec Order on Masks.  Despite Governor Glenn Youngkin issuing a mandate to schools around the state to not enforce mask mandates on children, the Frederick County (Virginia) Public School decided to continue illegally upholding the mandate.  Now they're paying for their hubris as parents are taking the fight to the school board.  Footage from a recent school board meeting showed that parents meant business.  As the meeting was set to wrap up, a man approached the dais where the school board sat and began handing out subpoenas.  With the understanding of what was happening dawning on them, the school board members attempted to gather their things and leave but the parents weren't having it.

DHS Terrorism Advisory Targets 'Misinformation' That Undermines Trust in Gov't.  The DHS released a terrorism threat advisory about the current threats to the United States on Monday [2/7/2022].  What they warn about in the advisory immediately raised a lot of concern because it appeared they were targeting "false or misleading narratives" and "misinformation." [...] Are these the "false narratives" about COVID they were selling us three months ago that they now admit are real?  Who gets to decide what is a false narrative, and why is any of that a "threat?"  Add that to questions about the Capitol Police spying on members of Congress, and you have to wonder just how far down the dystopian road does the Biden regime want to take us?  This goes even beyond Biden, of course, since it was under the Obama Administration that they used Democratic disinformation to go after a political opponent, and you had Obama's CIA spying on Congress then.  They got caught, yet nothing was done, so they think they can go further.

New York to roll back indoor mask mandate: report.  New York will roll back its indoor mask or vaccine mandate on Wednesday, three sources familiar with the situation told The New York Times.  Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul is expected to announce the change on Wednesday as Democrats around the country revisit coronavirus mandates in light of the omicron coronavirus wave seemingly beginning to recede.  For months, New York has mandated that indoor businesses check a person's COVID-19 vaccination status or require patrons to wear masks as cases increased with the winter and omicron variant.  It is still unclear if the mask mandate for schools will remain in effect.  The deadline to renew the measure is in two weeks, according to the Times.  Other Democratic states such as New Jersey and Delaware recently dropped school mask mandates.

Fire the FDA.  As we look over the past two years of COVID, how much of what the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told us about this disease and sold it as "science" has turned out to be true?  The CDC has changed its tune of mask-wearing at least three times to our knowledge, while treatments that have shown promising results for those who have contracted COVID have been flatly rejected by health officials in Washington — in some cases only because Trump endorsed them.  Amazingly, more than a year into Joe Biden's presidency, there is no confirmed chairman of the agency.  This would be like not having a secretary of defense in the middle of World War II.  Meanwhile, the FDA has become so politicized that its top two vaccine officials resigned in protest months ago and the agency has almost completely stopped convening its outside expert panel.  That panel's advice was routinely second-guessing the wisdom of Biden's rules, and often was summarily overruled by the health bureaucracy.

Statistically meaningless CDC mask poster
Unmasking CDC's Latest Mask Study:  How Government Gets It Wrong Again.  The poster [left] tells us that cloth masks reduce the odds of testing positive by 56%, surgical masks by 66%, and N95s and KN95s by 83%.  The made-for-Twitter visual mischaracterizes the findings of the Feb. 4 study.  That study was so poorly designed that the confidence intervals — the range of possible results, similar to the "+/-" in public opinion polls — were large enough to render its findings meaningless.  So, while the poster says that cloth masks reduced the risk of testing positive for COVID-19 by 56%, the study itself reports that wearing a cloth mask may make you 17% more likely to test positive than wearing no mask at all.  That's quite a +/- range.  Similarly, while the poster leads you to believe that N95/KN95 masks are more protective than surgical masks, which are more protective than cloth masks, the confidence intervals for all three masks overlap.  That renders the comparison among mask types inconclusive.


Pfizer forecasts $54 billion in revenue in 2022 from sales of its COVID-19 vaccine and antiviral pill alone fueling an expected record of $102 billion.  Pfizer is the leading manufacturer of Covid vaccines in America, and has recently began to rollout to rollout what many believe to be the most effective antiviral pill available to treat the virus as well.  The rollout of both has already led to a substantial financial windfall for the New York City-based company, and the prospect on enhanced distribution of Paxlovid, the potential rollout of Omicron-tailored vaccines and more booster shots in the future will lead to an influx of even more cash.  On Tuesday [2/8/2022], the company revealed its Q4 earnings and revenue projections for 2022.  The company estimates to rake in up to $102 billion in sales next year, which would be a new record.

Virginia Dem Says Masks Are Just Political Symbols, 'Forced Masking' Violates 1st Amendment.  A Virginia Democrat state senator had his "Joe Manchin moment" when, in a fiery letter to the Fairfax County Public Schools superintendent, he responded to the district's doubling down on what he called "Forced Masking of Children" by vowing to pass a law prohibiting it "in the coming days."  "It has become hard, if not impossible, to find a respected medical researcher who still defends Forced Masking of Children as a public safety measure," Sen. Chap Petersen wrote Monday [2/7/2022].  Petersen, a moderate Democrat from Fairfax City, serves in a state senate where Democrats have such a thin majority that, when he votes with Republicans, Republicans can pass legislation.  "The decision to wear a mask in public — when there is so little correlation with public health — makes it de facto a political decision.  In other words, by wearing a mask in a public setting, the wearer is able to communicate a political message, e.g.  "I Care About Others" or "I voted for Biden" ... You are forcing children to make a political statement that they (and their parents) may not believe.  That violates the First Amendment," he wrote.

Rep. Chip Roy Introduces Bill to Reinstate Troops Discharged over Vaccine Mandate.  Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) introduced a bill on Tuesday that would allow servicemembers who were discharged over the Biden administration's military coronavirus vaccine mandate to be reinstated, Breitbart News has exclusively learned.  The bill, called the Service Restoration Act, would also prevent troops from facing punishment or any adverse treatment as a result of not wanting to get vaccinated.  "Adverse action" would include retaliation, punishment, disparate treatment, a requirement to wear a mask or reside in sub-standard housing.

Johnson & Johnson temporarily stops COVID vax production: report.  Johnson & Johnson stopped production of its single-shot COVID-19 vaccine at the only plant making usable doses late last year, according to a report Tuesday [2/8/2022].  The stoppage at the plant in the Netherlands is temporary — with production of the vaccine expected to resume sometime in March, the New York Times reported, citing sources close to the matter.  While it's unclear if the shutdown that began late last year has had an impact on vaccine availability, it could slash Johnson & Johnson's supply by a few hundred million doses, one source told the newspaper.  Other facilities have been tasked to produce the J&J vaccine, but they either still await regulatory approval or weren't yet manufacturing it, the Times reported.

Embalmer Richard Hirschman reveals novel clotting in 65% of cases.  Richard Hirschman has been an embalmer for over 20 years.  In 2021, he started noticing very odd blood clots that he had never seen before.  In Jan 2022, 65% of his cases exhibited these clots.  The only rational conclusion is that the clots, which are deadly, are all associated with the COVID vaccines.  Nobody from the mainstream media or medical community wants to touch this story.  It's not just Richard who is seeing this; it is everyone in the industry he's talked to about it.  They are all seeing it, but Richard is the only person in the US (so far) willing to speak out about it.  [Video clip]

Leading CNN Political and Medical Voice Says Time to Drop the Mask Mandate.  Something has changed in the past several days.  Likely the private COVID fear polling continued to show an overwhelming number of Americans are just done with the constant COVID-19 fear porn and mandates.  Today, several states including New Jersey and California announced they were dropping their mask mandates and many COVID-19 regulations.  In the past week there appears to have been a big shift in the narrative.  To highlight that point, the biggest fear porn and mandate seller on CNN, Dr. Leana Wen, completely reversed her position, and said it's time to let people make their own choices.  [Video clip]

Four blue states [are] preparing to ditch mask mandates.  Yesterday [2/7/2022], Allahpundit pointed out one of the early cracks in the blue wall of support for mask mandates, particularly in public schools.  New Jersey's governor seemed to be ready to throw in the towel and stop fighting public sentiment on the issue.  Well, shortly after that, the push to put an end to the mandates appeared to start spreading faster than the Omicron variant.  Three more blue state governors joined Phil Murphy in saying that mandates would be coming to an end either this month or in March.  Oregon, Connecticut, and Delaware jumped on the bandwagon, with the governors of those states sounding suspiciously like the protesters who have been demanding that people — particularly school children — be allowed to go back to some semblance of normal life and get their early social and educational development back on track.

New Data:  Covid Was Never More Dangerous to Young Adults and Children Than Seasonal Flu.  New data from the Office for National Statistics (U.K.) show decisively that Covid-19 was never more dangerous for young people and children than the seasonal flu.  A bioethicist at the University of Oxford named Euzebiusz Jamrozik remarked on the findings, which are aptly demonstrated by charts of the data.  "UK data:  Covid19 was never significantly more dangerous to children than seasonal influenza (left, 2020)," he remarked on Twitter.

CNN medical expert:  "The science has changed" on mandatory masking in schools.  Dr. Leana Wen is getting pummeled for this clip on righty social media this morning, but for different reasons. [...] Too often scientists and public health officials have prioritized maximum COVID prevention over important countervailing considerations, like the psychological burden of masking on kids.  To decide now that there's something to that and to hand-wave away the shift as being attributable to "the science" illustrates Bill Maher's point about experts needing to show more humility towards contrary views.  Since the science about a novel virus is constantly shifting, today's fringe position could be tomorrow's conventional wisdom.  As you watch the clip, though, note that Wen *does* acknowledge at the end that she's doing a cost/benefit analysis.  "The science" is one component of that analysis and it's changed, she alleges.  And she doesn't claim that anti-maskers were right all along to oppose mandates.  She says demanding that kids wear masks right now makes less sense than it did.  [Video clip]

School masking advocates trying to make an end run around the law in PA.  Almost two months ago, the Pennsylvania state supreme court ruled that the state's face mask mandate for schools was unconstitutional and struck it down.  While this was met with mixed reactions among families in some areas, obviously there were still people who felt that leaving the choice up to the parents (or even the school districts) was unacceptable.  In their view, everyone must be forced to mask their children.  But what could be done about it?  One possibility has been suggested and it involves a suspicious number of lawsuits that have been filed against school districts that make masking optional.  The "suspicious" part of this, as National Review explains it, is the fact that all of the lawsuits contain nearly identical wording and reasons for the complaint.  It's almost as if someone is out there generating these suits as part of a campaign.

FDA Duplicity on Covid-19 Vaccines.  Perhaps the most important long-term fallout of the Chinese Coronavirus pandemic has been the exposure of the venality and politicization within the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as well as other federal health agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).  Nothing personifies this corruption more than the FDA's absurdly close ties to the pharmaceutical companies.  Thus, their refusal to recognize proven inexpensive therapeutics and their unorthodox approach in licensing certain Pfizer and Moderna mRNA Covid-19 — vaccines that are not offered for sale in the United States.  What was the FDA's and the pharmaceutical companies' endgame in this process?  Was it to gaslight the American people in order to sell vaccines and achieve mass vaccinations?  Was their motive to protect the pharmaceutical companies from exposure to liability and a tsunami of litigation?  Was it so the FDA could more easily approve these vaccines for children who are not at risk of Covid-19?  Or all the above?

Illinois Students Stage a Massive Walkout after Being Told 'Put on Masks or Leave'.  Even after Illinois courts struck down the states unconstitutional mask mandates, leftist COVID-Cult teachers and school boards across the state refused to follow the law.  The radical covid cultists even abused the children by sticking them in rooms and refused them their right to an education.  These people have proven over and over again, this isn't about health or public safety, it's solely about control and making people comply to their will.  [Video clip]

PM Of New Zealand Says Heart Attacks, Strokes And Other Side Effects Means Jabs Working Just As They Should.  New Zealand's Premier Jacinda Adern:  "The side effects that people experience with vaccines, which we all have come to expect, a sign that the vaccine's doing what it should."  She's not wrong, they are depopulating just as planned.  Several US life insurance companies have recently revealed an overwhelming unexplained increase (40%) in "all-cause deaths" amongst 18 to 49-year-olds.  [Video clip]

The Canadian Freedom Convoy Epically Shuts Down The US/Canadian Border.  Canadian truck drivers have been blocking a border crossing with Montana and shutting down traffic in the capital, Ottawa.  The so-called Freedom Convoy began almost a week ago as a protest over truckers losing their right to cross the U.S.-Canada border unvaccinated.  [Video clip]

Ottawa Police Are Now Arresting People For Honking Their Horns In Solidarity With The Truckers.  An elderly man was arrested in Ottawa Monday morning after he was pulled over by police for apparently honking.  He was arrested in a tense confrontation in which he refused to provide an officer his driver's license and people on the sidewalk derided the officer. [...] A passerby filming the incident informed the man he didn't have to show his identification to the officer.  The officer replied he did because honking a horn "is an offense."  [Video clip]

Trudeau stokes divisions by branding 7,000-strong Freedom Convoy in Ottawa as a 'few people shouting and waving swastikas'.  Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is being accused of 'blockading' Canada's democracy and stoking division across the country for branding anti-mandate protesters of the Freedom Convoy as 'swastika wavers' after some were seen waving flags during demonstrations that have paralyzed the capital city of Ottawa for over a week.  Demonstrations continued Monday evening [2/7/2022] into Tuesday as trucks blocked traffic on the Ambassador Bridge, the busiest border crossing to the United States, forcing police to close the bridge that links Detroit, Michigan and the Canadian city of Windsor, Ontario.  The convey, which shut down the bridge from Canada to Detroit by nightfall, is showed how demonstrations could affect the United States.

Freedom Convoy truckers say Trudeau and North America's liberal media are falsely demonizing them as ultra-right-wing crazies.  Angry truckers have lashed out at Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau after members of their convoy protest were arrested and charged with hate crimes during another weekend of unrest in the country's capital city.  They have also strongly denied that they have ties to ultra-right-wing groups, insisting they are just 'ordinary truckers.'  'It's intimidation, nothing else,' Freedom Convoy protestor Guy Meister told DailyMail.com on Monday.  'We are just a bunch of hard working truck drivers who are out here protesting the government's covid mandates.  'We aren't political, we are the working class.'

Why The Joe Rogan-Spotify Fight Will Define Free Speech For Us All.  Remind us again what it was that Joe Rogan said that got the left so apoplectic.  Did he spew hate speech?  Call for an insurrection?  Say mean things about a protected minority?  No?  The left wanted him canceled because he supposedly aired misinformation about COVID?  Are you kidding?  If this is the new standard for censorship, you can kiss free speech goodbye.  After all, anything can be labeled "misinformation."  Would you dare to say climate change hysteria is unfounded?  Or government-provided daycare is a bad idea?  Or Joe Biden's massive welfare expansion is a bad idea?  Election fraud is real? [...] What information did Rogan spread about COVID that has so alarmed the left?  That masks are ineffective?  That all we needed was a 15-day lockdown to "slow the spread"?  That there was no way the virus resulted from Chinese lab experiments?  That schools had to be shut down?  That this was a "pandemic of the unvaccinated"?  Oh, wait, those were all uttered by people like Anthony Fauci.

Stacey Abrams needs no mask
The Most Abhorrent Photo:  Stacey Abrams Maskless in Classroom of Masked Children.  What is going on?  Where is the outrage?  This is how liberals are treating our children.  "Follow the science" say Democrats, "mask up so you protect me" say Democrats.  Meanwhile, "I do whatever I want and my civil liberties remain intact while I take all of yours away" is what they are really saying.


Stacey Abrams:  The kids wore a mask so I wouldn't have to.  Reacting to charges of hypocrisy, Stacey Abrams' gubernatorial campaign explained she agreed to pose for a photo maskless with children in a schoolroom "on the condition that everyone around her" wore a face covering.  The photo, showing all of the children with masks, circulated over the weekend on Twitter and was retweeted by Abrams herself before being quickly deleted.

Abrams with no mask
Update:
More Maskless Stacey Abrams School Photos Released.  Stacey Abrams' recent visit to an elementary school is more cringeworthy than we thought.  OutKick has obtained more photos from Abrams' visit to Glennwood Elementary School last week.  These new photos prove that Abrams spent the entire day maskless while the children remained masked up.


Governors in Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey and Oregon announce plans to end school mask mandates as COVID cases plummet.  The governors of four states announced plans Monday to lift statewide mask requirements in schools by the end of February or March, citing the rapid easing of COVID-19's omicron surge.  The decisions in Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey and Oregon were announced as state and local governments grapple with which virus restrictions to jettison and which ones to keep in place.  The changes also come amid a growing sense that the virus is never going to go away and Americans need to find a way to coexist with it.  New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy called the move 'a huge step back to normalcy for our kids' and said individual school districts will be free to continue requiring masks after the state mandate ends March 7.

Psaki Says it "Remains" Biden's Recommendation That Schools Force 2-Year-Olds to Wear Masks.  White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday went on the record and confirmed Joe Biden supports schools that abuse toddlers.  Delaware and New Jersey are the latest Democrat-run states to lift all school mask mandates.  The snakes in the liberal press pool are angry that Governors are ignoring the ridiculous CDC masking guidelines that recommend schools force 2-year-olds to wear masks (child abuse).  When asked about New Jersey's decision to lift the school mask mandate, Psaki said it remains Biden's recommendation that schools force 2-year-olds to wear masks.

Gavin Newsom Will End California Indoor Mask Mandate for Vaccinated Only.  Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom will end the indoor mask mandate for vaccinated citizens only starting February 15.  In an announcement on Monday, the governor said that hospitalizations have stabilized since the omicron peak, allowing for the mandate to expire. [...] Nearly 70 percent of the state of California has been vaccinated against coronavirus, with the current CDC stats putting it at 69.4 percent of the state's population.  According to NBC News, schoolchildren will still be required to mask while local governments will be allowed to decide on their own indoor masking mandates.

Dr. Malone Questions Dr. Fauci's Secret Meetings, Use Of Burner Phone.  MRNA technology inventor Dr. Robert Malone is questioning suspicious behavior by Dr. Anthony Fauci and other top health care officials ahead of the coronavirus outbreak.  In a recent interview, Dr. Malone cited a report by the Epoch Times, which found Fauci and his colleagues had secret meetings in late 2019.  They also reportedly had extensive conversations using burner phones at the time.

Congress Investigating Claims of NIH Funding Cruel Experiments Injecting Puppies with Cocaine.  The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is facing a congressional probe after reports emerged alleging the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) spent millions of taxpayer dollars on a cruel experiment, injecting beagle puppies with cocaine.  The non-profit watchdog organization White Coat Waste Project (WCW) reported on another cruel experiment allegedly funded by taxpayers.  According to WCW's findings, via a Freedom of Information Act [FOIA] request, "seven 6-month-old beagle puppies were trained to wear a jacket" which "served a cruel purpose: to inject the animal wearing it with drugs." Puppies were then dosed with cocaine repeatedly "for months" with what WCW described as an "'experimental compound,' to see how the two drugs interacted"[.]

Obama needs no mask
An Obama photograph proves the lies of 'climate change' and COVID.  The left is built upon a mountain of falsehoods but two of the biggest are that humankind is trembling on the brink of destruction because of 'climate change' and that onerous COVID restrictions are the only things keeping us alive.  So what are we to make of an unmasked Obama standing around construction workers, very grumpy about work on his multimillion-dollar beachfront Hawaiian mansion. [...] Across America, parents are waging heroic battles to get masks off their children's faces.  One of the major weapons in that battle is pictures of celebrities flouting those same mask rules.  With the Obama picture, we have the perfect example of how the rich, famous, and political flout the rules.  It's not just that they don't wear masks.  It's that they expect the little people around them to wear masks.  The reason for this double standard is obvious:  These self-styled "elite" aren't afraid of the virus; they're disgusted by you.


Is the Coronavirus the Greatest Crime Against Humanity?  China hid the outbreak of Covid-19 from the world for months.  Brave Chinese citizens had been sending out smoke signals, but governments did not take notice.  Now, there is reason to suspect that some scientists in the U.S. were aware of (if not complicit in) a cover-up that began as soon as the pandemic started.  It wasn't until December 31, 2019, that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) acknowledged that a SARS-CoV-2 pandemic had broken out in Hubei province, where the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) is located. [...] Months before the official acknowledgement, photographs and videos of empty streets, closed businesses, and the enforcement of precautionary measures in Hubei had been appearing on social media.  Beijing's denials of a pandemic were disproved by posts from medical professionals showing hospitals overflowing with sick and dying patients.  Videos showed officials dragging away infected people from their homes, even welding doors shut to confine people to their buildings.  More to lend credence to retrospective theories of wrong-doing came from a September 12, 2019 event — the WIV database on coronaviruses was taken down.

Democrat Politicians Were Never As Afraid Of Covid As They Want You To Be.  California Gov. Gavin Newsom was the latest Democrat officeholder to flout the "science!" on mask mandates when he was photographed sans mask at the Rams-49ers playoff game, accompanied by Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and San Francisco Mayor London Breed.  It wasn't the first time Newsom demonstrated that Covid rules are only for pleb workers, small business owners, and children, and not for their lordships in public office and high society.  In November 2020, when the rest of the state was being told to lock down and shut up, it was revealed that Newsom and a dozen other unmasked guests had attended a birthday bash at a high-end Napa Valley restaurant.  Newsom is one of the many Democratic governors, members of Congress, and mayors who have spent the past two years disingenuously threatening, belittling, and terrorizing their constituents and the country at large with unscientific Covid cult practices and superstitions that were unprecedented in public health history prior to February 2020. These fraudsters have readily and cheerfully opted out of their own fear porn whenever it suited them.

Anatomy Of An Influence Campaign.  Imagine that you are highly motivated to make people believe that the only effective way to beat COVID-19 is to receive the vaccine — a multi-billion dollar product that earns the manufacturers tens of thousands of dollars every minute.  You would be against anything that leads to "vaccine hesitancy," which includes promoting information that suggests that there are cheap and effective ways to treat COVID.  You certainly wouldn't want experts like Dr. Robert Malone to have a platform, because he is saying just that.  Fortunately for you, Dr. Malone was prevented from communicating to his (small) audience of Twitter followers after Twitter banned his account.  That, for a time, was an effective containment option.  Unfortunately for you, Dr. Malone was able to bypass this gatekeeping measure.  On Dec. 31, 2021, he sat down to talk with chatty and inquisitive comedian and MMA commentator Joe Rogan, which allowed Dr. Malone to spread his message to somewhere between 11 million and 200 million people.  This is cataclysmic for you.  It's time to go into emergency mode.  YouTube, being a team player, promptly banned the episode.

Stacey Abrams Digs the Hole Much Deeper Over Her Deleted Picture.  As RedState reported previously, [Stacey] Abrams decided it'd be a great idea to post a picture of herself maskless while surrounded by masked children.  The issue with that is obvious.  Children are at less risk from COVID-19 than fully vaccinated and boosted adults.  Because of that, other countries long ago stopped masking young children, if they ever did, because it's such a pointless, ineffective, and damaging practice.  That makes it especially egregious when some politician ditches the mask at a school, grinning ear to ear, while all the kids are muzzled.  Abrams and her handlers, perhaps realizing how bad of a visual the picture was, quickly deleted the picture and put out a statement charging racism was behind the criticism, because what else would they charge?  After that, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a far-left newspaper, set out to try to clean up the mess.  In doing so, though, they got a comment from Abrams that only dug the hole deeper.

N.Y. Dems face heat for maskless photo-ops.  A pair of New York Democrats are taking heat for not wearing masks during indoor photo-ops even as they urge residents to cover their faces as part of the COVID-19 fight.  Rep. Jamaal Bowman was pictured, maskless, smiling with masked students during a visit to New Rochelle High School on Jan. 31.  A statewide mask mandate remains in effect as New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul appeals a ruling that struck it down.  Days later, the congressman told everyone to "mask up" in a tweet, prompting users to urge him to follow his own advice.

Why are triple-jabbed Joe and Jill still wearing their masks outside?  Joe and Jill Biden wore face masks to walk across the lawn at the White House on their return from Delaware on Sunday, despite there being no mandate, Omicron infection rates collapsing and the country trying to get back to normal.  The Bidens — who are vaccinated and boosted — covered their faces as they crossed the White House grounds surrounded by Secret Service agents and the press, even though the risk of an infection outdoors is negligible.  It is not clear who the President, 79, or the First Lady, 70, were protecting or who they felt they needed protection from as the only people walking across the grounds.

The Editor says...
The easiest and (to me) the most obvious explanation is that the injections given to the President and VP are just sterile water, offering no protection at all from contagious diseases.  The shots are just for propaganda purposes.  On the other hand, so are the masks.

Mainstream Media Actually Reports A Young 24 Year Old Dying From The Pfizer Vaccine.  Yahoo News and other outlets have reported this story about a young man in New York suddenly dying of myocarditis after receiving his COVID jab.  The media outlets described it as "A rare complication from a COVID-19 vaccine turned deadly for the Watts family of Lockwood in upstate New York, according to the Bradford County deputy coroner.  Their son, George Watts Jr., died at just 24 years old after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine."  Of course, if you follow the VAERs reporting system, which is run by the CDC, you will see nearly two million serious, adverse reactions so far and well over 20k deaths.  [Video clip]

NY Doctor Proved Everyone Wrong About Hydroxychloroquine.  Many doctors around the world started using the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.  Among them is Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, a practicing physician in a Jewish community in Monroe, New York.  He garnered national attention in March 2020 when he told radio host Sean Hannity that he'd had a near-100% success rate treating COVID-19 patients with HCQ, azithromycin and zinc sulfate for five days.  "I've seen remarkable results; it really prevents progression of disease, and patients get better," he said at the time.  In response, county health officials said Zelenko's claims were "unsubstantiated" and urged residents to listen to public health officials.  In this interview, he explains how HCQ works against COVID-19, and discusses the lies spun about the drug to suppress its widespread use.  Zelenko had a very active Twitter account and would get millions of views on his tweets, and like many other truth tellers in this crazy pandemic, he was censored and recently removed from Twitter.  [Video clip]

Neil Oliver:  The Government Needs COVID and They Just Won't Let It Go.  Neil Oliver provides another commonsense monologue highlighting the insanity of continuing COVID regulations against a citizenry that is well past the point of letting it go. [...] Indeed, the government leaders who take their instructions from the multinational corporations in charge of the World Economic Forum, which is to say almost all of them, are so entrenched in their need to use COVID-19 as the prybar for the Build Back Better agenda, they simply cannot let it go.  Without COVID-19 they can't keep the vaccination push.  Without the vaccination push they can't keep the vaccine passport process in place.  Without the vaccination passport registration process to track and monitor human behavior, the governing authorities cannot fulfill the mission of a comprehensive digital identity and social credit tracking system.  Indeed, everything they seek is contingent upon keeping the premise of COVID-19 alive.  It is not accidental the World Economic Forum is at the epicenter of this.  [Video clip]

The Drugfather.  "My financial disclosure is public knowledge and has been so for the last 37 years or so the last 35 years.  All you have to do is ask for it.  You're so misinformed, all you have to do is ask for it."  That was Dr. Anthony Fauci last month, in response to Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), a medical doctor.  As Adam Andrezejewski of OpentheBooks.com learned, the "public knowledge" part is a stretch.  Fauci's 2021 salary, and what he earned in royalties, had not been made public.  As many as 1,000 National Institutes of Health scientists receive royalties, and each payment is "a potential conflict of interest." So it was of some concern that "NIH admits it holds approximately 1,200 pages relating to Fauci's financial information and conflict of interest disclosures."  As it turns out, this sort of secrecy is standard practice.

Why the Sudden Hostility Toward Off-Label Medicines?  [Scroll down]  Many prescription medications are approved for one indication but used for something entirely different, prescribed by a physician, ethically and legally if they believe the use of this medication in an off-label manner is in the best interests of the patient. [Several examples omitted for brevity.]  Do pharmacies refuse to fill prescriptions for these off-label medications?  Are doctors threatened with loss of their medical license for prescribing these drugs?  Of course not.  How often does a physician prescribe a course of antibiotics for a patient with a bad cold, usually at the patient's request, knowing that antibiotics do nothing for viral infections?  Do pharmacies refuse to fill a prescription for a Z-pak for someone with a sore throat and cough?  Do these physicians face the wrath of medical boards for this off-label and useless treatment?  Of course not.  Over the past two years, the medical establishment and media has reversed course on off-label medications, not only dismissing them but shaming and vilifying anyone promoting their use.  The two drugs in question are well known, hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.

Six Comments On The Canadian Truckers' Freedom Convoy.  If someone opposes vaccine mandates, or if they even question their wisdom, the left and their minions will unleash an all-out assault.  They will attempt to cancel your podcast, or suspend your Twitter account, or have you fired from your job.  And why?  It's all about power.  If we've learned nothing else from the Omicron variant of COVID, it's that the vaccinated can still transmit the disease.  And that's not me saying that, it's the CDC.  So, if the vaccine doesn't stop the spread, what's the point in mandating the vax?

Time Is Running Out for the COVID Coverups.  The Left has a word for misinformation that turns out to be true.  They call it, "misinformation."  Over and over again, the tech giants, cheered on by power-drunk government officials, have censored and deplatformed people who have contradicted the official narrative regarding COVID and heavy-handed public health measures that restrict freedom with dubious health benefits.  Tellingly, the demands to censor Joe Rogan rarely identify the supposed "misinformation" he peddled.  Even more tellingly, the censors totally fail to acknowledge that Rogan-promoted "conspiracy theories" have a better track record than many of the articles of faith his critics promoted.

Stacey Abrams poses maskless surrounded by dozens of kids at Georgia school.  Georgia gubernatorial candidate and fierce mask proponent Stacey Abrams angrily defended a recent photo of her posing maskless during a visit to an Atlanta elementary school after it sparked widespread criticism.  Abrams' campaign hit out against her critics in an Instagram post, calling the criticism a 'false political attack,' while going on the offensive and attacking the reputations of her opponents.  'It is shameful that our opponents are using a Black History Month reading event for Georgia children as the impetus for a false political attack,' the statement read.  'And it is pitiful and predictable that our opponents continue to look for opportunities to distract from their failed records when it comes to protecting public health during the pandemic.'

New Study: 99% of All Covid Prior Infections Resulted in 'Natural Immunity' That Lasted at Least 650 Days.  Johns Hopkins university this week dropped a quiet bombshell of an article that went widely ignored in the mainstream media.  Dr. Marty Makary, spearheading a team at Johns Hopkins to do the work that the CDC and NIH refuse to do, showed that 99% of unvaccinated people known to have Covid infections had robust "natural immunity" that did not diminish for at least 650 days.

The Real Anthony Fauci.  Robert F. Kennedy Jr., founder and chairman of Children's Health Defense, reveals the collusion between the federal government and pharmaceutical firms with meticulous detail in his new book, The Real Anthony Fauci:  Bill Gates, Big Pharma and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health.  In the process, Kennedy exposes Fauci as a self-serving, manipulative bureaucrat who "implemented a system of dysfunctional conflicts and a transactional culture" that enabled Fauci's National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases to become "a seamless appendage of Big Pharma," Kennedy wrote.  Part of the book describes how Fauci manipulated the AIDS crisis during the 1980s to promote a dangerous drug, AZT, which made patients sicker but made a lot of money for its manufacturer, Burroughs Wellcome.  The AIDS crisis became the template for Fauci's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kennedy asserts.

'You Are on the Losing Side of History': Meet Mom Fighting Schools' Mask Mandates.  My name is Merianne Jensen and I am a mother of four children.  I'm located in Prince William County.  COVID has really affected my children's education.  A mask has its purpose.  Masks are not effective in the classrooms.  COVID-19 is not being spread in the classrooms.  It is not being spread by children, and the emotional damage that is being done by masks far, far outweighs getting COVID-19.  My son came home the first day of school with an extreme headache, and went to bed with a stomachache because he was so anxious.  I told him it was just the first day jitters.  The second day, he came home from school with a splitting headache.  For two weeks, he came home with a headache.  We took him to the doctor.  It was all because of the mask.  We play politics with kids' faces by placing restrictive fabric over their noses and mouths, that the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] itself has said don't do anything, and it's for their safety.

Ottawa declares state of emergency over trucker convoy COVID-19 protests.  [Toronto] Mayor Jim Watson said the declaration highlights the need for support from other jurisdictions and levels of government.  It gives the city some additional powers around procurement and how it delivers services, which could help purchase equipment required by frontline workers and first responders.  Thousands of protesters descended in Ottawa again over the weekend, joining a hundred who remained since last weekend.  Residents of Ottawa are furious at the nonstop blaring of horns, traffic disruption and harassment.  They fear no end is in sight after the police chief called it a "siege" that he could not manage.

Nurses say they were fired for raising safety concerns.  Marian Weber says she wanted to make Ketchikan, Alaska, her forever home.  With its widespread greenery and rainy days, and waterfront crowded by houses, it was a long-awaited dream.  And staying for good seemed like a real possibility.  Weber, 47, was a travel nurse contracted to work at the city-owned Ketchikan Hospital, run by PeaceHealth, a not-for-profit health care system.  She says she arrived in April 2021, and the hospital renewed her contract in August before promptly terminating it within the same month.  "They thanked me for extending, they were excited that I was going to stay through the winter, and then a few hours later, they rounded back just asking if we had anything we wanted to discuss," said Weber.  "I escalated a problem."

Understanding the Covid Odds.  It's obviously not easy to give up fear of Covid-19, to judge from a recent survey showing that the vaccinated are actually more frightened than the unvaccinated.  Another survey found that most Democratic voters are so worried that they want to make it illegal for the unvaccinated to leave home.  But before you don another mask or disinfect another surface, before you cheer on politicians and school officials enforcing mandates, consider your odds of a fatal Covid case once you've been vaccinated.  Those odds can be gauged from a study by researchers at the National Institutes of Health, published by the Centers for Disease Control.  They tracked more than 1 million vaccinated adults in America over most of last year, including the period when the Delta variant was surging, and classified victims of Covid according to risk factors such as being over 65, being immunosuppressed, or suffering from diabetes or chronic diseases of the heart, kidney, lungs, liver or brain.

CDC Weighs Increasing Time Between Vaccine Doses To Lower Risk Of Heart Inflammation.  U.S. health officials are considering new changes to vaccine guidance that would lengthen the amount of time between doses in order to lower the risk of heart inflammation for immunocompromised people.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told a panel of outside advisers on Friday these proposed changes would apply to the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines.  Immunocompromised people, who generally don't respond as well to vaccines, are the only population advised to get four vaccine jabs.

Canadian Trucker Protest Enters Second Week.  While numbers have reportedly dropped somewhat since last weekend, Ottawa is still thronged with pro-freedom truckers and their supporters.  The protest has primarily been directed against covid mandates, but it has morphed into a broader rebellion against the oppressive bureaucratic state.

Covid Backlash Brews in Canada, Sending Warning Across Globe.  Canadians have done as they were told during the pandemic.  They lined up for shots until the country had one of the developed world's best vaccination rates; they endured some of North America's longest lockdowns; and they've complied with a wide assortment of curfews and quarantines.  But even in a society known for its civility and deference to authority, many are reaching their limit.  Pent-up frustration and rage have burst into the downtown core of the nation's capital, with hundreds of truckers and other protesters occupying Ottawa's streets for nearly a week to oppose vaccine mandates.  Protests are expanding across Canada this weekend and are threatening to spill over into the U.S. with demonstrators planning a convoy to Washington, D.C.

COVID: The after times.  The Covidian orthodoxy is beginning to crumble. [...] Like many of you, I have learned things about people I thought I knew that were hard to believe.  It has been quite the learning curve to find out who would happily serve as an enforcer to push the state's dictates, who would just as happily shut people out of society, celebrate their firing, or deny them healthcare for the sake of making a political point.  Once you have seen the true measure of a person, one who would support steps that harm friends and relatives and justify that support hesitation or regret, how can you see such people in the same light again?  You can't trust them.  You can't discuss anything of substance with them.  You can't pretend that none of this happened.  It is impossible to once again respect or like people whose inner tyrant rose to the surface so easily, and that will be among the lasting legacies of this sorry spectacle, one that should sadden us all.  The friendships forever tarnished, the family ties that are irreparably broken, the neighbors you no longer recognize; for many people, those will be the most tangible results of their COVID experience.

Does vitamin D protect against Covid after all?  Vitamin D may help fight off coronavirus after all, a study suggests.  The jury has been out on the 'sunshine vitamin' since early in the pandemic, with conflicting findings muddying the waters.  Papers that did find a link were deemed not rigorous enough and not definitive.  But a new study — this time in Israel — claims to have the most conclusive evidence yet.

Some liberal cities look to end vaccine and mask mandates as opposition grows.  As COVID-19 cases plummet across the country on the tail of the omicron wave, some cities that imposed vaccine requirements and widespread mask mandates are reconsidering the policies amid growing public opposition.  Denver's mayor said Monday [1/31/2022] that the city would allow indoor mask and proof-of-vaccination requirements to expire at the end of the week.  Citing the "downward trajectory of cases, positivity, and hospitalizations," Mayor Michael Hancock announced that the mask mandates would continue in schools but not for most indoor establishments to which the previous public health order applied.

No Benefit, Many Costs.  A new study from Johns Hopkins University's Institute for Applied Economics supports what I and others have long maintained:  lockdowns do not work, and their economic, social, educational, and psychological costs far outweigh any health benefits they might bring.  Early in the pandemic, epidemiological modelers predicted catastrophic casualties that could be averted only with stringent lockdown measures.  In response, nearly every country around the world imposed lockdown measures by the end of March 2020.  Yet little evidence existed to support such actions, and the modeling studies were fatally flawed. [...] The authors reviewed thousands of studies and culled 34 that had reliable and sufficiently relevant data to review.  The results were mixed: several studies found no statistically significant effect of lockdowns on mortality; other studies found a significant negative relationship between lockdowns and mortality; and others found a significant positive relationship between lockdowns and mortality — i.e., that lockdowns actually increased deaths from Covid-19.

The censoring of Joe Rogan is a tactic right out of old Soviet Union.  Make no mistake, the recent Joe Rogan vs.  Spotify scandal is not about COVID and what constitutes proper medical protocols to fight it.  It's about the future of free speech in America.  White House press secretary Jen Psaki's statement on Tuesday, directing Big Tech and Spotify to do "more" to eradicate alleged COVID "misinformation" on the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast, suggests that the future of the First Amendment is bleak.  A representative of a ruling party dictating to a private company what content is "accurate" and what is not, is a clear sign that the US government has embraced censorship.  Just like the Soviets, the benevolent authoritarians want to "protect" you from the bad influence of the Rogan type "rogues." Consider that the Rogan interview deemed wrongheaded by America's elites was not with some charlatan but with a medical doctor, a clinician, Dr. Robert Malone.  Malone's thought crime is that he doesn't sing in unison with the "The Science" espoused by Tony Fauci, who has been stood up as the COVID Minister of Propaganda whose every word must be accepted as truth.

The Problem with Mandates.  [Scroll down]  Do mandates have the force of law; do we have to obey them?  The Left believes it is automatic; the Left desperately wants you to believe that once someone wins an election or is appointed to a government job, he has the power to do anything he wants.  "Elections have consequences; to the winner go the spoils," they tell us with pride, and sometimes even glee.  It's a lie.  In fact, an executive order or agency mandate is only legitimate if both of the following have occurred:
  [#1]   The order or mandate is within the scope of the authority that the legislature has granted to that executive or to that agency, and
  [#2]   The order or mandate is constitutional; that is, the relevant constitution specifically granted the legislature the authority to delegate to that executive, or to that agency, in the first place.  A legislature cannot grant a power that it doesn't even have to grant.  How many of the E.O.s and mandates issued by Joe Biden, Gavin Newsom, J.B. Pritzker, or Gretchen Whitmer have been in line with the authority granted them by their respective constitutions and by state and federal law?  Think of not only the times they've exceeded their authority; think of the times when they have directly contradicted legislative orders, daring a legislature to attempt pulling them back from their illegal actions.

The Medicare 'free' at-home COVID virus test boondoggle.  Medicare recipients at first were left out of the "free" Covid tests that private insurers were required to provide.  Well, now us old folks are included among those able to grab 8 free tests per month. [...] With 8 tests per month x 12 months x 60 million people on Medicare, that's up to 6 billion tests per year.  At, say, $5 wholesale per test, that could be a cool $30 billion in annual revenue for the companies making them. [...] Medicare will need to pay a higher amount per test based on whatever markup it negotiates with the retail pharmacies.  How much earlier will the program go broke?

Why Ivermectin was Disappeared.  [Scroll down]  The physician wants to prescribe a medication with no risk of bacterial resistance and a very benign side-effect profile.  He's read lots of literature to suggest it will be helpful.  There are a significant number of double-blind studies showing it to be effective in the treatment of SARS Co-V2.  It has been used in multiple countries with excellent results.  Except, in this case, the physician will find it impossible to prescribe that medication.  It will be impossible because that medication is Ivermectin.  And somehow it has been removed from the market.  Not only has this FDA-approved, Nobel prize-winning drug been made unavailable, but if a physician were to prescribe it, or advocate it as therapy, they are threatened with the potential loss of their medical license, their hospital affiliations, and their board certification.

Virginia judge grants temporary restraining order allowing mask mandates to remain in schools.  Students in northern Virginia schools will have to continue wearing face masks after an Arlington judge granted a temporary restraining order preventing Gov. Glenn Youngkin's mask-optional order from taking effect.  The decision comes after seven school boards requested a temporary restraining order in a lawsuit to block Youngkin's order which allows parents to decide what's best for their children. [...] Following the judge's decision, Macaulay Porter, a spokesperson for Youngkin, released a statement and vowed to appeal the ruling, saying the ability for parents to decide what is best for their children in school is something Youngkin will continue to fight for.

9 Responses You Should Use When The Mask Police Come For You.  Two years after the introduction of the novel Wuhan coronavirus in America, children still risk suspension from school if they don't wear masks, businesses face government fines and closures for inadequate Covid compliance, and patients struggle alone as hospitals maintain bans on family visits.  The ability of Democrat politicians to live under the umbrella of rules for thee but not for me also remains more alive than ever.  As the mask police continue to patrol school hallways and the open skies, fed-up Americans have devised creative ways to protest the mandated insanity of required cloth coverings that even their loudest champions have begun to concede are pointless.

Cost of Lockdown:  Record Number of Children Seek Severe Mental Health Treatment in Britain.  The lockdown restrictions imposed in response to the Chinese coronavirus have seen a record number of children being referred to specialists for the most extreme mental health problems in Britain.  According to figures compiled by the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a record 409,347 children under the age of 18 were referred to specialist NHS care between April and October of last year for displaying issues surrounding self-harm or eating disorders.  The record-setting numbers represent a dramatic increase from pre-pandemic levels, with the number of children seeking specialist care for severe mental health issues rising by 77 percent over the same recording period in 2019, the BBC reported.

Medical journal hints at Facebook lawsuit for throttling investigation of COVID vaccine trial.  The fact-checking industry, empowered by the vast resources of social media giants, is under sustained scrutiny amid a possible legal battle among the British Medical Journal, Facebook owner Meta and a contractor it pays to flag purported COVID-19 misinformation.  Facebook stopped some readers from sharing a BMJ investigation of "data integrity" issues in a Pfizer COVID vaccine trial, BMJ editors wrote in an open letter to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in November.  It also slapped "missing context" labels on posts that went through, warning users they could be penalized for sharing the article.  Contractor Lead Stories seemed more interested, however, in promoting guilt by association and policing political views than checking the facts, the journal's editors wrote in a blistering New Statesman op-ed last week.

Kids Full of Life, Adults Obsessed with Death.  Children are perhaps the most-masked people in America, and clearly the people least needing to be masked.  Whether or not one believes that masks work — and the best available scientific research suggests, as I have detailed in City Journal, that surgical and cloth masks provide little to no benefit in stopping the spread of viruses and might even be counterproductive — kids are plainly the least likely to be struck ill by Covid and probably the least likely to spread it.  There's an extraordinary difference — even greater than widely recognized — between Covid-19's effects on kids and its effects on adults, as fatality numbers show.  Far from regarding this important fact as a godsend for the upcoming generation, however, many policymakers have treated it as an irrelevancy.  At the same time, they have ignored that children living in mask-mandate states have had essentially identical Covid fatality rates as kids living in mask-free states.

American Truckers Organizing Freedom Convoy to DC but Here Come the Censors.  The Freedom Convoy that made it across Canada from Vancouver to Ottawa is now occupying the streets in front of Parliament and is being supported by people in their efforts against vaccine mandates. [...] American truckers are now trying to follow in the footsteps of their Northern brethren — organizing a similar convoy from California to Washington, D.C., to stand against government overreach.  But Facebook is trying to stop them, removing the page from which they were organizing the effort.  Facebook claimed that the page was violating policies around QAnon.  Just as there was an effort to smear the Canadian effort by Justin Trudeau and some in liberal media, even claiming it was somehow associated with Russia, it looks like they're going after the U.S. effort.

A Prescription for Transforming the CDC.  After two years of responding lethargically, failing to reveal key data, and issuing muddled messages, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has proven it is fundamentally incapable of leading the nation through a fast-moving pandemic.  In his recent book, The Premonition, Michael Lewis pejoratively refers to the CDC as "Center for Disease Observation and Reporting."  While this was meant as an appropriate criticism of the CDC's passive operating posture and inability to "control" COVID-19, Lewis was actually too kind.  The CDC's performance in "observation and reporting" has been dismal.  The CDC, founded in 1946 as the Center for Communicable Diseases, boasts a rich history of achievements.  Beginning with malaria, the CDC has played central roles in the identification, mitigation, or eradication of diseases such as smallpox, Ebola, polio, and HIV/AIDS.  Common to many once-successful organizations, however, it has failed to modernize, adapt, and evolve to sustain a position of relevance, let alone leadership.  Nothing short of a complete transformation is necessary.

Stanford Doctor Lays Out What He Believes Is The Fauci 'Playbook' For Silencing Dissent.  A Stanford doctor laid out Wednesday [2/2/2022] what he says is Dr. Anthony Fauci's "playbook" for silencing anyone who goes against the grain in regards to COVID-19.  Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a professor at Stanford School of Medicine, said Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins try to "create a false impression of scientific consensus on COVID policy" by labeling scientists "who disagree 'fringe.'"  "[They] deploy big tech misinformation hordes to suppress opposing thoughts," Bhattacharya tweeted as part of a list.

Obviously a fire code violation.  These kids have never heard of the Cocoanut Grove.
High School Claims They Didn't Barricade Unmasked Students in Gym; Tables Were Just Accidentally Placed in Front of Each Exit.  As we reported Thursday night, a high school in Oakdale, California barricaded students who came to school without a mask in the school gym and wouldn't turn the heat on.  Eventually police were called to the scene to turn on the heat, but we've now learned that by that time many of the students had moved the barricades — which were folding tables strategically placed in front of all of the exits — and marched up to the district office, where they joined a group of parents already protesting mask mandates.

US Army Will Discharge Unvaccinated Soldiers.  All unvaccinated members of the military are to be discharged, effective immediately according to a Jan. 31 memo sent out to all Army branches by Army Secretary Christine E. Wormuth.  The memo brings the Army in line with the Marines, Air Force and Navy, which have discharged members for refusing Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin's COVID-19 vaccination orders in August, the Associated Press reported.  Ninety-six percent of the military has complied with the vaccination orders leaving around 3,300 soldiers at risk of being discharged, according to The Hill.

A Literature Review and Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Lockdowns on Covid-19 Mortality.  This systematic review and meta-analysis are designed to determine whether there is empirical evidence to support the belief that "lockdowns" reduce COVID-19 mortality.  Lockdowns are defined as the imposition of at least one compulsory, non-pharmaceutical intervention (NPI).  NPIs are any government mandate that directly restrict peoples' possibilities, such as policies that limit internal movement, close schools and businesses, and ban international travel.  This study employed a systematic search and screening procedure in which 18,590 studies are identified that could potentially address the belief posed.  After three levels of screening, 34 studies ultimately qualified.  Of those 34 eligible studies, 24 qualified for inclusion in the meta-analysis.

The US Public Health Response has been a Colossal Failure.  Our Hospital systems are failing in the US.  They are failing.  Our physicians are threatened and persecuted if they use life saving treatments.  Hospitalists are determined to continue to push and insist on treatments that have been proven to not be safe or effective in our hospitals.  Hospitals in the USA are fraudulently bilking the US Government for literally billions of dollars, by claiming excess disease and death.  So much so, that it has become impossible to figure out the true rates of disease and death of Covid-19 and for all causes in the USA.  It is shocking.  The rest of the world is running circles around us.  Our public policy response and our hospitalists are an embarrassment.  Where are our public officials?  But to speak of these issues openly, if you are a practicing physician, is grounds for loss of a license to practice medicine, losing hospital privileges and/or getting fired.  To speak out means getting publicly branded as a heretic or worse, crazy.  To actually cite reasons why this may be happening, such as the vaccines aren't working, physicians right to treat and try has been removed, hospitals are literally killing people with their rigid and failed policies and treatments is death of one's career.  It you speak of the fraud happening at the very hospital you may be working at, it is grounds for dismissal.

Symbols of Shame.  [Scroll down]  No one asked why we weren't using the cheap, available miracle drugs to save folks.  My doctor told me that he wasn't "allowed" to prescribe either HCQ or IVM.  "Allowed?!?"  Both drugs were FDA approved for other uses, so what's the problem?  Oh, right.  The money that can be made selling a vaccine — that's the problem.  No need for a vaccine if the cure is fast, easy, and cheap.  My naiveté began shriveling; my cynicism burgeoned.  Then Cuomo sent death bombs to old folks' homes — homes where the elderly were being denied contact with their loved ones — and tens of thousands of these people died, and died alone, and we did nothing about it.  People lost their lives, their jobs, and their homes and yet we dutifully strapped on our masks and bought more toilet paper.  Our children, masked, sequestered, and restricted became suicidal and we felt incapable of doing anything about it.  Fauci kept adding layers to our masks, which we knew didn't work, and he still kept his job.  He's still pushing both masks and the vaccines, neither do much good, both do a lot of harm and, still, he keeps his job.  He should, by rights, not only be fired but be locked up somewhere ugly.  But we do nothing.

COVID Numbers are Inflated, Include Car Accidents, Shootings, etc..  Project Veritas has sat down with yet another Whistleblower that confirms the number of covid cases are completely made up and over inflated to make it appear as if COVID is a much bigger issue than it actually is.  This whistleblower says even gunshot wounds are being labeled as covid deaths, proving yet again the so-called 'conspiracy theorists' have been right all along about COVID being overblown in order to enforce lockdowns and destroy small businesses.  [Video clip]

Infection, Hospitalization Gap Narrows Between Unvaccinated and Vaccinated:  Study.  The protection from vaccines against the virus that causes COVID-19 dropped following the emergence of the Omicron virus variant, but held up better against hospitalization, according to a new study.  While the Delta variant was still dominant in the United States, COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations among unvaccinated people were 3.8 times and 12.9 times, respectively, those among vaccinated people without a booster, researchers in California found.  The gap between unvaccinated and vaccinated people who received a booster was even wider, with unvaccinated people experiencing infections 12.3 times and hospitalizations 83 times the rate of the metrics in the vaccinated and boosted group.  However, the gap narrowed significantly after Omicron, a variant of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, displaced Delta as the dominant strain in the country.  The CCP virus causes COVID-19 and is also known as SARS-CoV-2.

Australian Government Is Allowing Hospitals to Block UnVaxxed Parents from Seeing their Children in Hospitals.  As if the Australian government couldn't get any worse, now they're blocking unvaccinated parents from seeing their injured or dying children in hospitals.  This is exactly what the US government did to senior citizens in nursing homes on their death bed, thousands of elderly passed away without ever being able to see their own family.  Now, it's happening with children in Australia and some parts of the USA and Europe.  [Video clip]

Why did so many American mainstream media outlets ignore a reputable university's study that lockdowns didn't work?  Mainstream liberal news has largely ignored a new study showing that COVID lockdowns had virtually no effect on stopping COVID-19 — because they 'already have their own narrative written', according to the study's author.  A review by three respected economists from Johns Hopkins University, Lund University in Sweden and the Danish think-tank the Center for Political Studies, found that restrictions imposed in the spring of 2020 — including stay-at-home orders, masks mandates and social distancing — only reduced COVID mortality by 0.2 percent.  The study, published in the Studies in Applied Economics January 2022 edition, that lockdowns caused 'enormous economic and social costs' and concluded that they were 'ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument' going forward.

CNN, MSNBC, NYT, WaPo completely avoid Johns Hopkins study finding COVID lockdowns ineffective.  There has been a full-on media blackout of the new study outlining the ineffectiveness of lockdowns to prevent COVID deaths.  According to a Johns Hopkins University meta-analysis of several studies, lockdowns during the first COVID wave in the spring of 2020 only reduced COVID mortality by .2% in the U.S. and Europe.  "While this meta-analysis concludes that lockdowns have had little to no public health effects, they have imposed enormous economic and social costs where they have been adopted," the researchers wrote.  "In consequence, lockdown policies are ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument."

Speaker at the World Health Summit Admits the Vax is 'Gene Therapy' Praises COVID for Tricking People to Taking it.  Once again you see the people who are behind the global pandemic flat out admitting what the so-called 'conspiracy theorists' have stated all along, the vax isn't a vax to stop COVID, it's 'gene therapy' meant to alter your DNA.  [Video clip]

Ri-i-i-ight.
LA Mayor Eric Garcetti Says He Held His Breath During Maskless Photos At NFC Title Game.  Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, who is facing major criticism for being pictured without a mask at last weekend's NFC title game in SoFi Stadium, claimed Wednesday that he held his breath whenever removing his mask.  Garcetti took a photo with Lakers legend Magic Johnson, both unmasked, at Sunday's game between the Rams and the San Francisco 49ers.  California Gov. Gavin Newsom also took an unmasked photo with Magic as well at the game.  Both photos went viral and prompted significant controversy.

[An] FDA Document on Moderna Vaccine Approval [was] Removed From Agency's Website.  A Food and Drug Administration (FDA) document explaining why the agency approved Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine was removed from the agency's website overnight.  The Summary Basis for Regulatory Action gave more details on how regulators reached the approval decision, and included references to an unpublished analysis that found the rates of post-vaccination heart inflammation were higher than any U.S. agency had found before.  After The Epoch Times reviewed the document and sent questions about it to FDA spokespersons, it disappeared from the agency's website.  "We are aware of the issue and hope to have the document reposted as soon as possible," a spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an email on Thursday.

Navy chaplain among sailors denied religious exemption to COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  A chaplain in the U.S. Navy Reserve said Wednesday that the military is being used by the Biden administration as a "nice little test group" that "can't say no" after he said he was denied a religious exemption to the COVID-19 vaccine.  The chaplain, who spoke with Fox News Digital on the condition of anonymity, said he faces possible dismissal from the Navy after nearly two decades of service due to his refusal to get a vaccine.  He would miss out on crucial retirement pay and benefits if he's dismissed before hitting the 20-year mark.

Censor This:  Science Says Mask Mandates Don't Work.  Dr. Vinay Prasad — an associate professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at the University of California, San Francisco — has written an article that examines the scientific evidence for masking children and concludes that:
  •   "Most of the masks worn by most kids for most of the pandemic have likely done nothing to change the velocity or trajectory of the virus."
  •   "There are downsides to face coverings for pupils and students, including detrimental impacts on communication in the classroom."
  •   "Masking is now little more than an appealing delusion."
  •   Decisions to mask schoolchildren are "ignorant, cruel, fearful, and cowardly."
Dr. Chad Roy, who specializes in airborne infectious diseases and is a professor of microbiology and immunology at Tulane University School of Medicine, has told the Washington Examiner that:
  •   "Cloth and surgical masks do absolutely nothing for protection from ambient virus."
  •   "All this song and dance of wearing cloth masks with some presumption that you're being protected from ambient virus is completely and positively 100% counter to how masks and respirators work."

Oakdale California Students Revolt Against Mask Mandates, Get Locked Into Gym For The Day.  Students in Oakdale staged protests Wednesday [2/2/2022] in opposition to California's mask mandate.  The Oakdale Police Department posted to Facebook saying that the protests were small and peaceful.  "Today there are a few schools throughout town where protests have taken place related to the COVID-19 mask mandate.  These gatherings have been small in nature and have been peaceful," the Oakdale Police Department wrote.  Oakdale school officials haven't responded to ABC10's questions about the protests.  [Video clip]

The COVID Narrative is Falling Apart.  Joe Biden claims this is a pandemic of the unvaccinated and wants everyone in the world vaxxed with the "safe and effective" vaccines.  In addition, he plans to distribute millions of "effective" N-95 masks.  Anyone paying attention knows this a big lie.  Masks may be a comforting placebo, but even the N95s don't work as advertised.  And new revelations about dangerous vaccine side effects have surfaced despite media suppression. [...] Vaccines now have negative efficacy:  Data has surfaced claiming that continued use of the original vax is causing negative efficacy.  Negative efficacy doesn't mean the protection fades.  It means the opposite: it means the vaccines are now weakening the immune system.  It became clear that countries with the highest vax rates, were the most likely to experience a surge in both cases and deaths.  You can monitor five representative countries daily death rates here.  Note that India is included because India was the only one to allow the widespread early use of inexpensive therapeutics.  Initially their protocol included hydroxychloroquine but when the more deadly delta variant hit they switched to a protocol that included ivermectin.  India had far better results than the others in taming COVID.

COVID and cultism.  [Scroll down]  In current times, all mainstream groups in the Western world obediently follow groupthink.  This includes the mainstream news media, showbiz, the intelligentsia, the political establishments, international bodies, Big Tech, non-profit organizations, and even comedians.  Their political leanings, the causes they advocate, their likes and dislikes are identical, which makes their hypocrisies identical.  Clearly, the nonconformists prefer to remain silent.  This is tyranny, which is the hallmark of a cult.  Those who lived under an autocratic government will tell you what the regime fears most is contrarian ideas.  Rebels can be severely punished and made examples of.  But great ideas, contrary to groupthink, are impossible to restrain or censor.  A powerful idea can be spread by word of mouth to capture the public's imagination.  It could lead to a mass movement causing an overthrow of the regime.

When Will Freedom Arrive In The U.S.?  Feb. 1 is the Danes' new independence day.  On Tuesday, Denmark rid itself of all of its remaining pandemic restrictions.  But liberty in America, the nation that pioneered the guarantee of freedom to its people, is still under assault.  Denmark is the first country in Europe to reopen its boxed-in, abused, and drained society.  No more indoor mask mandates, or vaccine passports for entry into private establishments.  Other European nations have lifted some restrictions, as well, but only Denmark has gone all the way and dropped a self-isolation requirement for those who test positive.  Apparently the Danes learned the lesson that after nearly two years most nations haven't been able, or willing, to figure out.  Finland isn't far behind.  But not America.  Yes, most U.S. states have freed their residents.  Yet much of the country is still under the government boot.

Johns Hopkins Study Shows Government Cure for COVID Was Worse Than Disease, Lockdown Benefit Provided No Mitigation of Death from Virus.  An interesting study from Johns Hopkins University shows the 2021 government lockdown did virtually nothing to stem death from the pandemic, but likely created more adverse "social ills" and long-term negative health outcomes.

Intrusive COVID-19 restrictions 'needed to end six months ago,' Tim Carney tells Fox BusinessWashington Examiner senior columnist Tim Carney argued that politicians need to stop imposing overly intrusive COVID-19 restrictions on their constituents.  In a Tuesday appearance on Fox Business, Carney said most people will likely eventually catch COVID-19 and that policies that fire workers who do not get the vaccine, force 4-year-olds to wear a mask, and require excessive quarantining should be eliminated.  "It's like the flu:  It's going to spread.  Now, the argument for getting vaccinated is that it lowers your chance of getting hospitalized or dying, but it's not going to stop the spread.  So we need to just stop doing all of the interventions that mess with our lives," he said.  "All those things needed to end six months ago — they definitely need to end today."

'We Failed': Danish Newspaper Apologizes For Its COVID Coverage.  A Danish newspaper has apologized to its readers for not questioning the government's data and narratives more throughout the first two years of the pandemic.  The Ekstra Bladet, founded in 1904, said it should have done more due diligence in examining the government's data and conclusions before reporting them:  "For ALMOST two years, we — the press and the population — have been almost hypnotically preoccupied with the authorities' daily coronatal," wrote Bladet journalist Brian Weichardt.  "The constant mental alertness has worn out tremendously on all of us.  That is why we — the press — must also take stock of our own efforts.  And we have failed."

The Lancet surrenders and declares COVID pandemic is almost over.  The Lancet, published since 1823, is universally recognized as one of the top medical publications in the world, though it damaged its reputation by publishing and then subsequently retracting a study attacking the use of hydroxychloroquine as a therapy for COVID.  Still, the retraction was the right thing to do, and it is hardly unprecedented in the history of academic and medical publishing.  In an article published January 19, The Lancet throws cold water on those merchants of panic who wish to use COVID as an excuse to rob people of their civil rights.

Newsom, California Dem leaders defy state's own universal mask mandate at Rams-49ers game.  Gov. Gavin Newsom and other Democratic California leaders were spotted maskless at the 49ers-Rams game despite the state's universal indoor mask mandate.  "Hanging out at SoFi Stadium today!" former Lakers star Magic Johnson tweeted Sunday evening accompanied by photos of him posing indoors with Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and San Francisco Mayor London Breed.  None of the California leaders or Johnson were wearing masks in the photos.  California implemented a universal indoor mask mandate in December that was extended to run through Feb. 15.

Justin Trudeau Tests Positive For COVID-19 As Anti-Mandate Protesters Flood Ottawa.  Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday that he tested positive for COVID-19.  The Liberal Party leader tweeted that he tested positive Monday morning and would continue to follow public health guidelines while working remotely for the remainder of the week.  He used the announcement to encourage Canadians to get vaccinated and boosted like he is.

Did Dismissals of Safe Outpatient Drugs Cause Needless COVID Deaths?  For the first nine months of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were no officially approved outpatient treatments for combating the disease. [...] Some governments and independent practitioners considered that standard a recipe for inaction that meant likely death for untold numbers of victims.  These medical dissenters instead treated COVID-19 as physicians have long responded to newly emerging infectious diseases: by administering designer cocktails of cheap, safe, and readily available agents — in this case including hydroxychloroquine, antibiotics, aspirin, and vitamins — that had proved effective in treating similar illnesses or showed promise due to mechanisms of action.  RealClearInvestigations spoke or corresponded with 12 such advocates for early outpatient treatment globally — from California, Texas and Honduras to France, Israel, and India.  These physicians used their clinical experience to make educated guesses about what combinations of drugs might work.  Few used the same cocktail, but all insisted the treatments proved most effective when administered as early as possible.

Justin Trudeau is a Bungler and Menace to His Nation.  At the beginning of January, Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada, posted a message on Twitter in which he announced that he had just received his Covid vaccine booster and urged others to do likewise.  At the end of January, Justin Trudeau posted a message on Twitter in which he announced that he had tested positive for Covid-19.  Astoundingly, at the conclusion of his message Trudeau urged everyone to get the shots even though they failed to protect him from the disease.  "Everyone, please get vaccinated and get boosted," he insisted.  Trudeau's message shows the depth of irrationality — bordering on insanity — to which many have fallen victim.  We propose to call this phenomenon the Vaccine Insanity Syndrome (VIS).  Those who suffer from VIS have largely lost touch with reality and things like common sense, evidence and logic no longer gain any traction in their thinking.

Even Nurses Agree NYC's $100 Vax Bribe is Injuring Poor and Homeless People Who Need Money.  The latest undercover story from Project Veritas shows that even the frontline workers are sickened by the Democrats bribing people with $100 in order to get them to inject a vaccine that taxpayers already paid for.  Essentially NYC is paying the pharmacutical companies bills for them in not just creating the vax, but also paying for their clients who once receive the vax will have a compromised immune system and need boosters, possibly for life!  [Video clip]

COVID Policies Are No Longer About Health, Only Punishment.  COVID-19 may be a novel virus, but it is proving itself a virus nonetheless by doing what viruses are wont to do — surviving.  And in order to survive, a virus can't afford to keep killing its hosts.  It adapts.  It weakens in ferocity as it increases in transmissibility.  Mankind's curious nature has produced many a vaccine to help halt a viral event.  Smallpox comes to mind.  The COVID vaccine hasn't produced that success yet, although as this particular vaccine technology advances, it will surely get there in the future.  That being said, it has been a substantial blessing that this virus is now rapidly evolving into something that is on a trajectory to become no worse than the common cold or a seasonal flu.  Plenty of people are still falling ill, but the pandemic has one foot solidly in the endemic camp.  We should be grateful.

Teachers turned COVID Cult Members have Yet Another new Anthem to Brainwash their Students With.  Every time I think 'these people can't get any worse' they surprise me with yet another gem like this proving they're out of their damn minds.  Firstly, that song is from a black movie, so using their own leftist logic by, using it is 'cultural appropriation' and they should lose all of their social media accounts and be fired.  Now back to the song itself, seriously, these people are out of their [...] minds!  Telling kids to vaccinate despite studies proving the kids have the lowest death rates and complications from COVID.  [Video clip]

The Canadian Convoy Has Stolen the Hearts of the People and the Media Is Not Taking It Well.  The trucker convoy protest has been making its way through Canada's capital city of Ottawa and has become the largest in history spanning an astounding 45 miles.  At the center of the protest is the message that Canadians are rejecting the government vaccine, mask, and lockdown mandates, and the desire to be treated as free westerners, not subjects of a single man and his leftist whims.  Canadians of all stripes showed up to show their support for the convoy over the weekend en masse.  The media was content to never speak of the convoy — unless it was to demonize it — as it was proof-positive that the people are not with them, the politicians they serve, or the ideology they support, despite all their claims to the contrary.  The issue was that this gathering over the weekend around the truckers was so large that they had to acknowledge it.

Atilis Gym owner sentenced for keeping gym open during New Jersey lockdown.  Atilis Gym owner Ian Smith says that he received a sentence of one year probation after keeping his door open during lockdown mandates.  The Atilis gym has made headlines since the COVID pandemic started, after resisting shutdown orders from the state.

This Is Not America, Part II.  A little more than a year ago, about nine months into the pandemic, we expressed concern about what had become of our country.  Had it become a nation of elitists vs. the rest?  A culture that had given up on itself?  A land of censorship?  A nation in which policies and political orientation are not merely matters of disagreement but causes of internal and irreconcilable turmoil? [...] The pandemic turned out to be the ideal opportunity for the authoritarians and smug self-appointed superiors among us to continue to split us apart, accrue more power unto themselves, marginalize dissenters, force compliance with a narrative of the deranged, crack down on speech, and use fear as a means of control.  No longer does the U.S. reflect the founders' vision of a nation of free people.  It more closely resembles a junior high school, where status is craved, and the unpopular kids are bullied and cast aside.

The doctors who actually do know best?  [Scroll down]  These are not doctors just plucked off the street, but professionals from all over the country who are tops in their particular field. [...] The mainline media called their narratives a "false narrative."  Listen to what these doctors had to say.  "Let doctors be doctors; let the doctor and patient determine the treatment, not the government."  "The men who founded America were not professional politicians, but farmers, shop people, and land-owners."  "It was a serious mistake to let government officials control health care rather than doctors and nurses, who really knew what was happening." [...] "Don't let them vaccinate your kids.  While vaccinating may have seemed like a good idea at the start of the pandemic, vaccinating kids makes no sense.  Children have natural immunity, rarely catch the flu, and more rarely pass it on to others.  Many have suffered because of the vaccinations."  "Vaccinating children has had very negative results.  Some, especially the boys, have had permanent heart damage.  Some girls became sterile."  "If your child is injured because of the introduction of an unproven vaccine, you have no remedy:  drug companies are no longer liable for drug failures."

Ivermectin: It seems that the 'horse de-wormer' is an effective COVID treatment.  I don't think it can be said often enough that the leftist establishment's dismissal of all early treatments for COVID in favor of vaccines, followed by hospitalization when people are in extremis, will go down as the greatest slaughter of Americans since the Civil War.  Whether driven by politics, profit, or the power that vaccine mandates have given them, the entire leftist establishment dismissed Ivermectin as a "horse de-wormer" making it almost impossible for doctors to prescribe it.  Yet a Japanese study shows that, in fact, Ivermectin is both "safe" and "effective."

Canada's 'Freedom Convoy' truckers continue to block border with Montana to protest Justin Trudeau's vaccine mandates.  'Freedom Convoy' truckers and protesters continued late Monday [1/31/2022] to block a border crossing into the US at a village in southern Alberta — one of the country's busiest border crossings — in solidarity with their brethren in Ottawa who have shut down the nation's capital.  Motorists traveling across the border between Montana and Alberta have been caught in blockade of vehicles that have essentially shut down the highway south of the city of Lethbridge, Alberta, 65 miles [from] the Canada-U.S. border crossing in the village of Coutts.  Despite being 2,000 miles away from Ottawa, the demonstration is related directly to what is happening in the Canadian capital where protests are running into a fourth day against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and COVID-19 vaccine mandates — which require unvaccinated truckers to get a PCR test and quarantine.

Biden staff still terrified of him catching COVID.  There's been a rather weird dance going on among Democratic elected officials around the country this winter in terms of how to frame their message in terms of COVID mandates.  It seems to have slowly dawned on them that people are fed up with both the pandemic and the restrictions that have been imposed on them, with significant majorities of people just wanting life to "get back to normal."  But at the same time, many officials are frightened out of their wits that they will be blamed if they "don't do enough" and even a single additional person dies from COVID.  The Mayor of Denver just announced that mask mandates and requirements for proof of vaccination will be ending, stressing the need for people to return to normalcy.  The Governor of New York continues to try (unsuccessfully in many counties) to enforce a mask mandate but insists that she will not shut down the economy or limit the movements of the vaccinated.

We Have Had a Narrow Escape from Tyranny But the War on Freedom Is Not Over.  On January 23 I reviewed on this website Kees Van Der Pijl's new book, States of Emergency.  Van Der Pijl answers the question so many people have of why and how a fake "deadly pandemic" was orchestrated with worldwide participation in the fraud.  He shows that the event was long in the making by a global elite consisting of philanthropists such as Bill Gates, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Welcome Trust, elite organizations such as the World Economic Forum, tech companies and multi-billionaire owners, Fauci at NIH, CDC, FDA, WHO, pharmaceutical companies and lobbyists, and elite organizations and groups created for the purpose of concentrating power and advancing and protecting the global elites' rule by using fear to condition the masses to being controlled and deprived of a voice and alternative explanations.  I had been thinking along these lines, but lacked Van Der Pijl's detailed knowledge of the personalities, organizations and groups and the interactions and cooperation between them.  He gives us the story.  It was an elaborate exercise in massive deception and censorship that was able to discredit the world's most renowned medical scientists and to elevate pure fiction to fact and public policy.  We owe it to ourselves to read States of Emergency in order to come to terms with the fact that we are ruled by people devoid of integrity to whom truth is an inconvenience and who are concerned solely with their control and power.

Im-Politic: A Rapidly Mounting Case Against Fauci — and His Former Boss.  Dr. Anthony S. Fauci must be one of the luckiest people in the world, with Dr. Francis S. Collins not far behind.  President Biden's chief medical advisor and the recently retired head of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have been leading charmed lives because evidence keeps emerging of their incredibly shady and quite possibly corrupt and illegal behavior in dealing with the China angle of the CCP Virus pandemic, and so far they're getting off scot free.  As known by RealityChek readers, overwhelming evidence exists that Fauci, longtime head of NIH's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) lied to Congress when he denied under oath that his agency funded gain-of-function research at a Chinese virology lab in violation of federal government guidelines at the time.  Such deceitful statements are criminal offenses and Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul has rightly asked the Justice Department for a criminal investigation.  But how anxious do you think this Biden administration cabinet agency will be to look into someone whom the President himself has repeatedly touted as the world's greatest expert on handling the pandemic?  This Fauci decision on gain-of-function funding, by the way (as opposed to misleading Congress about it) should be enough to put him in serious legal jeopardy.  And ditto for Collins if he knew about Fauci's action.  In the last month, however, recently released emails suggest two more major reasons for investigating Fauci and Collins.

Incriminating evidence.  Here is a collection of evidence that highlights the glaring errors in our pandemic response.  It is very important to educate doctors because most people rely on their doctors for advice.  You can help by bringing this document to your doctor's attention.  Ask her if she will help to correct this "misinformation" by meeting with us in a recorded video.  We will be happy to compensate her generously for her time.  So far, nobody wants to talk to us on the record.  Since nobody inside the CDC, NIH, or FDA will talk to me or any members of my team of experts, I have tried to discuss the evidence summarized in this document with the members of the outside committee members of the CDC and FDA. I offered them $1M to take a meeting (or I will donate it to a charity of their choice if they want).  They all refused.  I have no idea why.  They won't tell me.  I didn't even get a counter offer.  It's so hard to give away a million dollars nowadays.

The "Most Radical Medical Experiment in Human History," Targets Children.  We live in a day unlike any other hostile to truth, outside the book burning of the Middle Ages, where truth is determined by who is the loudest and who is censored the least.  Where everyone carries in a pocket a device loaded with the history, truth and wisdom of the ages, but instead, most prefer the shallow depth of social media to determine opinion.  Where science may have been captured by the "dark side" for profit and control of the masses.  Where children with a 99.99X percent of surviving COVID, should they even get it which is rare, are the new target for inoculation and the Great Reset.  A day where the inventor of the Messenger RNA technology, used in the Covid injections, feels compelled "to issue a dire video, warning parents still considering getting their children injected, to instead protect them from what he calls "the most radical medical experiment in human history."  But in that warning even he is largely censored.

The Pandemic Narrative Is Undergoing A Radical U-Turn.  There is now little doubt that the official pandemic narrative is headed for a 180 degree u-turn, but mostly for political reasons.  The Democrat party is in shambles and virtually guaranteed to lose majorities in the House and Senate if it does nothing to restore confidence.  Backing off of the painful tyranny of mandates and unscientific "science" is the way out.

The Last Days of the Covidian Cult.  This isn't going to be pretty, folks.  The downfall of a death cult rarely is. [...] Yes, that's right, as I'm sure you've noticed, the official Covid narrative is finally falling apart, or is being hastily disassembled, or historically revised, right before our eyes.  The "experts" and "authorities" are finally acknowledging that the "Covid deaths" and "hospitalization" statistics are artificially inflated and totally unreliable (which they have been from the very beginning), and they are admitting that their miracle "vaccines" don't work (unless you change the definition of the word "vaccine"), and that they have killed a few people, or maybe more than a few people, and that lockdowns were probably "a serious mistake."  I am not going to bother with further citations.  You can surf the Internet as well as I can.  The point is, the "Apocalyptic Pandemic" PSYOP has reached its expiration date.  After almost two years of mass hysteria over a virus that causes mild-to-moderate common-cold or flu-like symptoms (or absolutely no symptoms whatsoever) in about 95% of the infected and the overall infection fatality rate of which is approximately 0.1% to 0.5%, people's nerves are shot.  We are all exhausted.  Even the Covidian cultists are exhausted.  And they are starting to abandon the cult en masse.

The end of COVID-19.  It is a laughable understatement to say that our public health agencies have failed, from the so-called vaccines and mask mandates to the lockdowns and useless expensive therapies.  There has never been any reasoned debate on COVID. Rather, the Praetorian Guard of the health establishment — aka the mainstream media and large social network platforms — have censored opposing views, and have attempted to cancel anyone with the temerity to hold such views.  As it happens, it is remarkably easy to control the population, based on the tendency of most people to respect authority — often beyond all reason.  Indeed, the biggest lesson you must learn in elementary school (or at least fake that you've learned) is to follow orders.  A consequence of this is that most peoples' viewpoints on nearly all matters are fixed at a young age, and can almost never be changed.  Thus, an experimental genetic therapy, in which the clinical trials were — to be kind — rushed is called a "vaccine."  And, it is called a "vaccine" on purpose, since for most people that term conjures up the idea of "immunization," based on relevant life experience.

Denmark to End Most COVID Restrictions and 'Welcome the Life We Knew Before'.  Denmark Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced on January 26 Denmark would be throwing out most of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions it placed, including mask mandates.  Restrictions currently in place are for the public to wear masks on public transportations, in restaurants, in shops, and people entering healthcare facilities and retirement homes, according to the Associated Press.  However, following the February 1 change of restrictions, masks will only be required in hospitals, healthcare facilities and homes for the elderly.  "We say goodbye to the restrictions and welcome the life we knew before," Frederiksen said.  "As of Feb. 1, Denmark will be open."

Face Mask-Associated Ocular Irritation and Dryness.  During the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, the concern for reducing disease transmission has led to a worldwide increase in face mask utilization.  During this period, we have observed a corresponding increase in ocular irritation and dryness among regular mask users.  This finding has not been previously described in the literature but has important implications on eye health and infection prevention, as mask use is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

The media blackout on Fauci's emails.  Last week saw another batch of emails drop from Anthony Fauci, and another media blackout as to their contents.  The strategy by the press in cases like this has been pretty straightforward:  ignore the story, wait for right-leaning media or Republicans to pick it up, then frame any attacks on the subject as tainted by partisanship.  Last week, when confronted once again by Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, Fauci responded with more hyperbole and ad hominem.  The media, meanwhile, framed the exchanges as "Rand Paul Attacks!" and "Anthony Fauci defends!"  They refused to look at the information in the emails that Paul was asking about, refused to ask questions about them, refused to even report on them.  They are interested in the bloodsport, not the truth.  The reason for that is simple:  the truth is becoming very problematic for the man who once conflated himself with science itself.

Democrats [are] trapped in COVID hypocrisy theater.  It would be unfair to say that none of the 73,202 fans in attendance for Sunday's NFC championship game wore masks.  But looking through pictures of the crowd, it appears that, at best, 5% to 10% of those who watched the Los Angeles Rams defeat the San Francisco 49ers were wearing face coverings.  So it shouldn't be too surprising that the Democratic Party royalty in attendance, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, and San Francisco Mayor London Breed, were all photographed at the event not wearing masks.  It was good to see Democratic leaders embrace a return to normal life — if only they would do so consistently.  Newsom has put into force a statewide indoor mask mandate.  Then, there's LA County's additional mask mandate for "outdoor mega events," which requires masks for those attending events with over 5,000 people.  You know — like the NFC championship game.

Children under 12 should not risk receiving Pfizer's COVID vaccine, WHO says.  The World Health Organization updated its Pfizer mRNA vaccine guidelines to say that children under age 12 should not be "routinely vaccinated."  On January 5, the WHO added a statement to its "What you need to know" page about the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine warning against the use of the shot for those age 12 or younger.  The group's rationale is that since no "efficacy or safety data" is currently available for the youngsters, governments should hold off on giving them the injections.  Despite this, many major nations, including Canada and the United States, have continued jabbing children as young as five.

The Folly of Pandemic Censorship.  [Scroll down]  Even in a society with fairly robust protections, as ours once was, the most dangerous misinformation is always, without exception, official.  Whether it's WMDs or the Gulf of Tonkin fiasco or the missile gap or the red scare or the twenty-year occupation of Afghanistan, the worst real-world disasters always turn out to be driven or enabled by official falsehoods.  In the case of Afghanistan (and Iraq, and Vietnam before both), the cycle of war disaster was perpetuated by a sweeping, organized, and intricate system of official lying, about everything from the success of missions to the efficacy of weaponry to the political devotion of supposed allies.  The only defense against these most dangerous types of deceptions is an absolutely free press.  People know authorities lie, which is why the more they clamp down, the bigger their trust problem usually becomes.  Unfortunately, censors by nature can't help themselves.  Our official liars are always trying to learn from their errors.

Unvaccinated Man Willing to Die Rather than Get COVID Vaccine to be Eligible for Kidney Transplant.  A 38-year-old unvaccinated Air Force veteran from North Carolina was forced to turn down over 100 kidney donors because of a hospital policy that requires him to be vaccinated against COVID-19 prior to the surgery.  Chad Carswell's kidney is only operating at about 4% and he is seriously in need of a kidney transplant.  Right now, he is looking for another hospital.

37-Year-Old Man Suffers Severe Brain Rupture and Cardiac Arrest After Receiving Booster Shot of Moderna Vaccine.  A 37-year-old is on life support following a reaction to a Moderna booster shot which caused brain rupture and two cardiac arrests.  Om Prakash Mohapatra, whose wife is expecting a baby in February, has been fighting for his life since January 15th due to a severe reaction from his booster shot.  The doctors are now suggesting to remove his life support.

The Greatest Government Failure in American History.  The tally for how much the federal government spent to combat COVID-19 is now estimated to be $5 trillion.  It is more than the combined costs of World Wars I and II.  The left is celebrating that politicians in Washington saved us.  Really?  From what exactly?  Two years later, it is time for an honest assessment.  Could things have worsened for the country if the government had spent nothing and done nothing?  What would have happened if we had not shut down our businesses?  Our churches, schools and restaurants.  Our parks, basketball courts and playgrounds.  Would the public have made worse decisions regarding protecting its health and the health of its families and its employees than the politicians have made?

Center for COVID Control Faked COVID-19 Test Results:  Lawsuit.  A COVID-19 testing company faked test results and didn't have licenses to operate testing sites, according to a new lawsuit.  The Center for COVID Control claimed to provide COVID-19 tests throughout Washington state for free and promised to provide results within 48 hours.  But in reality, the company gathered patient insurance information and provided "invalid COVID-19 test results or no results at all," according to the 14-page suit, filed in King County Superior Court by Washington state Attorney General Robert Ferguson.  Former employees told prosecutors that the company, which lacked licenses to operate in much of the state, was not able to process all of the tests it received and owners are accused of refusing to hire more workers.  Instead, the company allegedly stored tests in garbage bags for over a week rather than refrigerating them and backdated collection dates so the samples could still be processed.

Fauci Knew About Virus Lab Origin From Secret Teleconference, Pushed Alternate Narrative:  Jeff Carlson and Hans Mahncke.  Dr. Anthony Fauci was told in a secret teleconference that the CCP virus had very likely leaked from a laboratory in China, yet still pushed the alternate narrative that it had originated naturally, new evidence allegedly shows.  Redacted emails that were recently made public suggest that Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), initiated efforts to cover up evidence pointing to a laboratory leak as the origin of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes COVID-19.  Evidence suggests that Fauci also actively shaped a highly influential academic paper first published on Feb. 16, 2020, before later being printed in the prominent science journal Nature which excluded such a possibility.  The article, titled "The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2," was co-authored by five virologists, four of whom joined Fauci in a Feb. 1, 2020, teleconference.

Joe Biden, enemy of America.  [Scroll down]  Biden's gross manipulation of Covid fear porn is beyond egregious.  The more we learn about the horrific dangers from the vaccines, the more the doctors trying to inform the public are suppressed, censored and defamed, the more the administration, the media and the CDC double down on the lies, the lie that anyone under the age of twenty-five or thirty ever needed the vaccine in the first place.  But the last thing the Biden administration wants is an informed public.  Censorship is their new religion. [...] None of the available vaccines were fully or properly tested, which is why Pfizer wanted to delay the release of its data for seventy-five years.  The trials were rushed and emergency authorized by the FDA illegally.  No vaccine is to be authorized if there are available therapeutics, which they were and are.  Big pharma lied, the FDA lied, and the CDC lied.  The vaccine roll-out is part of a get-fabulously-rich scheme of Fauci and his cohorts in those and other bureaucratic institutions, all of which have been hopelessly politicized by the left.

Why hasn't Fauci been fired and put under FBI investigation yet?  Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House top medical adviser, shouldn't be on TV; he should be under federal investigation answering serious questions about his knowledge of the National Institutes of Health's reckless funding of dangerous gain-of-function research of bat coronaviruses at China's Wuhan lab via EcoHealth Alliance while overseeing the government agency.  And the so-called infectious disease expert leading the US COVID-19 pandemic response should be explaining shocking new information and emails obtained by Fox News' "Special Report" program exposing Fauci's reported role in withholding vital information about the true origins of the suspected bioengineered coronavirus and subsequent alleged cover-up at the outset of the pandemic beginning in January 2020.  The fact that America's highest medical officer reportedly failed to disclose this critical information to the public is beyond frightening; it's a dereliction of duty warranting his immediate dismissal and full investigation by authorities.

Moderna's COVID vaccine, to be marketed as Spikevax, fully approved by FDA.  The COVID-19 vaccination developed by Moderna was fully approved by the Food and Drug Administration on Monday [1/31/2022].  "The vaccine has been known as the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine, and will now be marketed as Spikevax, for the prevention of COVID-19 in individuals 18 years of age and older," the FDA announced in a statement.  That vaccine has been administered tens of million times since it was cleared for emergency use in late 2020.  The Pfizer vaccine was fully approved by the FDA in August.

RFK, Jr. — Crackpot or Cassandra?  [Scroll down]  Kennedy simply states the obvious:  it is increasingly difficult to evade or escape a malign government or to even have our own thoughts about government diktats, when tracking and surveillance technologies allow governments to quash dissent in ways that were not technologically achievable for past fascist regimes.  If you didn't know it was RFK, Jr. speaking, you'd think the words that follow are from Rand Paul or Josh Hawley:  [Quote omitted for brevity]  I have never been a fan of RFK, Jr. and I don't agree with his stance on vaccines in general and against the pharmaceutical companies in toto.  However, public pushback against the mandates and restrictions for over two years has exposed grave flaws in our public health policies and regulatory checks and balances, calling into question the trustworthiness of the NIH, CDC, NIAID, and the FDA.  We have seen firsthand the harm they can do when fully shrouded from legal responsibility and are tempted by billions.

In the 21st century, we've entered a brave new era of child sacrifice.  [Scroll down]  What we've seen in the last two years is that large numbers of Americans are willing to destroy their children if it will keep the grown-ups safe from a disease with an average mortality rate of less than 1%.  This is a complete inversion of the biological urge to save children.  For two years, Democrats have forced parents to isolate, mask, and inject experimental drugs into their children — and this is despite it's being known for almost two years that children do not spread the virus, are unlikely to sicken from it, and are being destroyed at every level — developmentally, educationally, physically, and emotionally — because of policies intended to assuage adult fears.  A Reason article reports that there is no good evidence supporting the "universal masking" policy in schools.  Even if you don't read the article, just look at that tragic photograph of children cut off from what makes us most human:  our mobile, expressive faces.

Medicine: The Latest Log on the Left's Bonfire of Meritocracy.  After two years of watching doctors all around the country mindlessly follow Commissar Fauci down his rabbit hole of politicized science, though, a lot of Americans will never see medicine the same way.  Even worse, they will never entirely trust physicians again.  Any profession that would seek to deny common therapeutic treatments for suffering patients, betray its bioethical obligation to fully advise patients on potential harms from experimental "vaccines" before demanding their consent, or refuse to respect the personal wishes and needs of patients has surely surrendered any pretense of a loyalty oath to, "First, do no harm."  Any profession that encourages censorship of dissenting expert opinion has surely sacrificed any reputation for objectivity, integrity, or dedication to truth.

Biden's Inert COVID-19 Strategy.  A growing number of public health experts have recommended that the Biden administration update its COVID-19 strategy.  It is increasingly obvious that an approach based on the President's pledge to "shut down the virus" will fail.  The emerging consensus among epidemiologists is that elimination of the virus is unlikely and that it will probably evolve into an endemic malady, like influenza, that circulates in the population at a relatively manageable level.  This consensus has been largely ignored by the Biden administration because updating its approach to COVID-19 would mean relinquishing the political power associated with the perpetual "public health emergency," and replacing several incompetent public health advisors.  Consequently, even former health advisers to the Biden transition team are criticizing his administration's static COVID-19 strategy.

UK Funeral Director 'I've Never Seen As Many Deaths, not Just the Elderly'.  Yet another funeral director is sounding the alarm over the massive spike in 'natural' deaths that are anything but natural.  Funeral director John O'Looney of Milton Keynes family funeral services in Milton Keynes, England lays out the details in this 30+ minute video and explains that all of those he is referring to are fully or partially vaxxed!  "So, what we're seeing is an ever-growing number, particularly of thrombosis deaths, interestingly.  So, that comes across as heart attack, aneurysm, or stroke, and they're in unprecedented numbers.  I've never seen as many deaths.  And not in just the elderly.  It's all manner of people.  People in their 20s, in their 30s and 40s, and people that wouldn't normally be dying, you know.  And this was predicted and it's (it has) come to pass," John said.  John said the increase of thrombosis deaths this year is way greater than the previous 14 years and it is around 500 or 600% increase.  [Video clip]

Lockdowns had little or no impact on COVID-19 deaths, new study shows.  Lockdowns in the U.S. and Europe had little or no impact in reducing deaths from COVID-19, according to a new analysis by researchers at Johns Hopkins University.  The lockdowns during the early phase of the pandemic in 2020 reduced COVID-19 mortality by about 0.2%, found the broad review of multiple scientific studies.  "We find no evidence that lockdowns, school closures, border closures, and limiting gatherings have had a noticeable effect on COVID-19 mortality," the researchers wrote.

Plandemic Lies 6 Months Later.  [Assertion:]  The vaccines are 95% effective at preventing infection.  [Reality:]  Breakthrough infections everywhere.  [Assertion:]  The vaccinated can't spread COVID.  [Reality:]  The vaxxed are as infectious as the naive unvaccinated and significantly more infectious than recovered unvaccinated.  The vaxxed can become super-spreaders like Typhoid Mary, because they are equally or more infectious, but with suppressed symptoms.  [Assertion:]  After getting fully vaccinated, you'll be done for good.  [Reality:]  Boosters are required, because the vaccine provides some protection for only a few months and only against a specific variant.  Anyone who doesn't get the booster will be considered unvaccinated after 6 months.  [Video clip]

The COVID-19 Storyline is the Greatest Scam in World History.  This week has been eye-opening.  Even for me — and I'm the guy who has warned for over a year, in commentary after commentary, and often for three hours a day on my nationally syndicated radio show, that the COVID-19 vaccine could be dangerous and deadly and could lead to catastrophe.  I stuck my neck out like no other talk show host in America to warn the vaccine may not even prevent illness; in fact, it could damage the immune system, thereby causing more illness and death.  And not just from COVID-19, but also injuries and death linked to the COVID-19 vaccine itself. [...] Three months ago, I was the first to warn that Americans were dropping in record numbers of heart attacks, strokes and blood clots.  I titled my commentary, "If the Vaccine Is So Great, Why Are So Many People Dropping Dead?"  But even I was shocked by the plethora of stories coming out just in the past week, from all corners of the world, suggesting the vaccines are indeed a terrible failure and are causing a mass die-off.

If only our Covid healthcare was as good as El Salvador.  As early as July 2020 El Salvador was trialling kits to treat Covid that included Ivermectin.  Cases were starting to rise, so on August 9, 2020 the President Nayib Bukele made a national announcement that treatment kits and tests were available.  Anyone with symptoms could call up the helpline and a box would be delivered to their home.  The treatment kits included ivermectin, azithromycin, zinc, Vitamin D, Panadol, and an antihistamine.  By January 2021 cases were on the rise again and so Ivermectin was made available over the counter without a prescription for anyone to buy at pharmacies.  Meanwhile the vaccine rollout began in February 2021.  But by April 9 only 2.8% of the population was vaccinated.  The rate of delivery increased from there.  By January 2022, El Salvador became possibly the first country in the world to tell people to "get fit" to beat Covid.

Ivermectin 'Safe' and 'Effective' for Treating Omicron:  Clinical Trial.  A Japanese conglomerate has found that the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin is effective and safe for the treatment of the coronavirus Omicron variant, according to a phase III clinical trial.  Kowa Co.  Ltd., a conglomerate with interests in trading, hospitality, and electronics, along with health and medical applications, issued a press release on Jan. 31 stating that ivermectin has been found to be effective against Omicron.  Kowa representatives didn't respond to a request for comment by press time.  The company, working with Kitasato University based in Tokyo, said that ivermectin has the "same antiviral effect" on all "mutant strains," including Alpha, Delta, and Omicron.  Kowa added that ivermectin suppresses invasion of the virus and inhibits its replication.

New Hampshire Pharmacies Could Soon Begin Dispensing Ivermectin Without [a] Doctor's Prescription.  A bill working its way through the New Hampshire legislature would allow residents to receive ivermectin from pharmacies with a prescription of a doctor or an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) for the off-label treatment of Covid-19.  House Bill 2011 would allow pharmacists to "dispense ivermectin under the delegated prescriptive authority of the physician or APRN (Advanced Practice Registered Nurses), specify a mechanism to document screening performed and the prescription in the patient's medical record, and include a plan for evaluating and treating adverse events," reads the bill.  "Any such prescription shall be regarded as being issued for a legitimate medical purpose in the usual course of professional practice."

Really Stupid NIH COVID Treatment Guidelines.  Here are the main reasons why the NIH list of preferred COVID treatments should not reassure the public:
  [#1]   The first preferred action, using the Pfizer drug Paxlovid, makes little sense because there is nearly no availability of it.  And even if people could get prescriptions filled, would they be acting fast enough to get benefits.  In the clinical trials people had to start the drug within three days of symptoms; even though they now talk of starting within five days, that too is totally impractical and unrealistic. [...]
  [#2]   The monoclonal antibody sotrovimab is nearly impossible to get because of extremely limited supply.  And here too, a sick person would have to get medical attention quickly, that is extremely difficult.  Even your local hospital might not have it.
  [#3]   The very expensive drug remdesivir has a terrible history of being both ineffective and having terrible side effects.  It is mostly given to very ill patients in hospitals.
  [#4]   Then you get to the absolutely ludicrous fourth option, the new Merck antiviral that has a terrible level of effectiveness and that has not been proven safe.  An absolutely awful choice.

Vaccinated people who then test positive for COVID; the wave is building.  [Scroll down]  The key quote occurs in a section headlined, Limitations of the Test:  "Potential cross reactivity of the InteliSwab™ COVID-19 Rapid Test with COVID-19 vaccines or therapeutics has not been evaluated."  In the medical community, the term "cross reactivity" is universally understood.  It means: a test designed to detect whether X is present in a person's body is, in fact, detecting Y, an entirely irrelevant item, BUT is mistakenly calling it X.  For example, a person had three drinks the night before his test, and the test then came up positive for the presence of a germ, when actually the test was reacting to the alcohol in the drinks.  And in this document I just quoted, the manufacturer readily admits it hasn't looked into the possibility that the COVID test is reacting to the COVID VACCINE and then mistakenly stating the vaccinated person has THE VIRUS in his body.  So the question is: why hasn't the manufacturer looked into this cross reactivity issue?

Intracranial infection cases up 60-fold since vaccines rolled out.  I got the message below from one of my followers.  It's an anecdote, but it is not an isolated incident as you'll agree from reading the comments.  A 60-fold increase in intracranial infections (5/month vs. 1 per year).  Nobody can figure out why.  Only started happening after the vaccines rolled out.  You won't hear of this since the surgeons aren't going to speak out since they'll lose their license (as noted in the message).  That doesn't mean it isn't happening. [...] The vaccination status of the patients wasn't known (since we all know that the COVID vaccines never cause any bad effects, the physicians didn't bother to ask such irrelevant questions).

There is no COVID-19 virus exception to First Amendment.  "There is no COVID-19 exception to the First Amendment," wrote U.S. District Court Judge Reed O'Connor.  His words, directed to the United States Navy, should remind all Americans — and especially those in positions of authority — that the Constitution refuses to bend to authoritarian impulses.  Earlier this month, O'Connor issued a preliminary injunction against the U.S. Navy, preventing it from taking any further action against the 35 Navy SEALs and Special Warfare service members represented by the First Liberty Institute.  It also provides hope for the thousands of members of the military who bravely raised religious objections to receiving the vaccine knowing full well their fates had long been sealed.

Doctors and Scientists Support for H.R. 5816, National Informed Consent Exemption (NICE) Act.  In the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial, zero unvaccinated adolescents 12 to 15 years of age suffered a severe case of COVID-19. In contrast, for every 1 case of non-severe COVID-19 in the unvaccinated group, there were 7 cases of severe (grade 3) systemic reactions in the vaccinated group.  The clinical trial also found that 1 in about 1,100 vaccinated children 12 to 15 years of age had a grade 4 systemic reaction (fever greater than 104.0° F) that required an emergency room (ER) visit.  The reaction occurred within one week of vaccination and led to withdrawal from the clinical trial.  Thus, as numerous severe systemic reactions occurred in the vaccine group and yet zero severe symptoms occurred in those children who became infected with COVID-19, there is clearly no scientific justification for mandating the vaccine in this age group.

Actual Deaths from COVID may only be 1/8 of the reported amount.  A video presentation by Dr. John Campbell, which has been viewed more than 1.5 million times in its first 12 days on line.

Trudeau Claims Canadians Are 'Disgusted' Over Truck Convoy Protesters.  Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke out against a growing truck convoy of vaccine mandate protesters at the nation's capital on Monday, claiming Canadians are "disgusted" by their behavior.  Trudeau released the post on Twitter just hours after announcing he had tested positive for COVID-19.  "I know this pandemic is frustrating.  It's frustrating that, after two years, we're not done fighting COVID-19.  But over the past few days, Canadians have been shocked — and, frankly, disgusted — by the behaviour displayed by some people protesting in our nation's capital," the prime minister wrote.

Chaos as convoy descends on Australia's capital to protest against Covid vaccine mandates.  Australian drivers have taken inspiration from a 'Freedom Convoy' in Canada to drive to Canberra and protest against vaccine mandates — but Victoria's Premier has warned booster shots will soon be mandatory.  Protesters from all around the country arrived in the nation's capital on Monday as part of the 'Convoy to Canberra' demonstration.  The convoy of cars between Pheasants Nest, NSW and the capital trailed for several kilometres.

'Huge Moment for Freedom' UK Mandatory Vax for Health Workers Set to be Scrapped — Report.  The UK government reportedly looks set to scrap mandatory vaccination for healthcare workers across the country, in what amounts to a massive U-turn on COVID policy.  A requirement for healthcare workers in the United Kingdom to be vaccinated against the Chinese Coronavirus in order to keep their jobs looks set to be scrapped, according to reports by a number of government sources.

Vaccine Mandate 'Feels Like Coercion,' Says Boston Teacher Who Fears Being Fired.  Special needs teacher Angela Jones could be fired from her job with the Boston school system.  Why?  Because she is unvaccinated.  Jones teaches elementary students in Boston Public Schools, where she has taught for nearly 20 years.  She says she is one of more than 400 teachers there who have declined to take a COVID-19 vaccine.  Now, Jones and her unvaccinated colleagues face termination.  The vaccine mandate for Boston teachers "feels like coercion," Jones, 52, told The Daily Signal during a phone interview Friday [1/28/2022].  "We don't want to put this [vaccine] in our bodies," she said, adding that all she and her colleagues want to do is "live our lives and teach children, which is our livelihood."

Xavier Becerra Is a Disaster at HHS? Who Could Have Seen That Coming?  The Morning Jolt, January 8, 2021: "In [Xavier] Becerra, Biden has selected a hardline partisan with no health-care experience to run HHS during a pandemic."  The editors of National Review, January 9, 2021: "Becerra has no medical background and no experience running a large, complex organization.  Becerra's notoriety as a left-wing culture warrior will make it impossible for him to establish credibility with a significant and skeptical swath of the country."  The Washington Post, this morning [1/31/2022]:  White House officials have grown so frustrated with top health official Xavier Becerra as the pandemic rages on that they have openly mused about who might be better in the job, although political considerations have stopped them from taking steps to replace him, officials involved in the discussions said.

White House frustrations grow over health chief Becerra's handling of pandemic.  White House officials have grown so frustrated with top health official Xavier Becerra as the pandemic rages on that they have openly mused about who might be better in the job, although political considerations have stopped them from taking steps to replace him, officials involved in the discussions said.  Top White House officials have had an uneasy relationship with Becerra, the health and human services secretary, since early in President Biden's term.  But their dissatisfaction has escalated in recent months as the omicron variant has sickened millions of Americans in a fifth pandemic wave amid confusing and sometimes conflicting messages from top health officials that brought scrutiny to Biden's strategy, according to three senior administration officials and two outside advisers with direct knowledge of the conversations.

Spotify Adding COVID-19 Content Advisories to Podcast Episodes to 'Combat Misinformation'.  Spotify will be adding content advisories to podcast episodes in an effort to combat misinformation about COVID-19, the company's chief executive officer, Daniel Ek has announced.  In a blog post published on Jan. 30, the Swedish audio streaming service said it was "working to add a content advisory to any podcast episode that includes a discussion about COVID-19."  The planned advisory comes shortly after Spotify removed Neil Young's music from the site when the singer accused podcaster Joe Rogan of spreading false information about coronavirus vaccines and "potentially causing death."  After giving the company an ultimatum between getting rid of Rogan, who hosts Spotify's top-rated podcast, or him, Spotify announced on Jan. 27 that it would remove Young's songs from its service.

Justin Trudeau and his family leave their home in Ottawa for a secret location amid security concerns as thousands of 'Freedom Convoy' truckers march in front [of] his office.  Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family have fled their home in the national's capital Ottawa for a secret location as up to 50,000 truckers gathered to protest against the country's vaccine mandate and Covid lockdowns.  Hundreds of truckers drove their giant rigs into the Canadian capital Ottawa on Saturday as part of a self-titled 'Freedom Convoy' which started as a protest against vaccine mandates required to cross the US border.  Days earlier, the Prime Minister had called the truckers headed for the city a 'small fringe minority' before the convoy of hundreds of vehicles grew up to 45 miles long as it made its way to the capital .

Canadian 'Freedom Convoy' vows to stay in Ottawa until government reverses vaccine mandates.  A 'Freedom Convoy' of trucks joined by thousands of demonstrators brought Ottawa to a virtual standstill for a second day on Sunday as they protested Canada's vaccine mandates, as other sympathetic truckers blocked a border highway into the United States.  The truckers say there is no 'end date' in sight and plan to stay in the capital 'for as long as it takes' and until the Canadian government flips and withdraws its policy on vaccine mandates.  The chaos clogged the capital's downtown near parliament throughout the weekend and brought criticism from officials, including Ottawa's mayor who said residents were 'prisoners in their own home.'

The Editor says...
Being a prisoner in your own home is better than being a prisoner in a Covid concentration camp; and nobody is a prisoner of the "Freedom Convoy" truckers.

Military Database Shows Alarming Increase in Adverse Medical Conditions After Forced COVID Vaccination.  During testimony last week, attorney Thomas Renz gave testimony on behalf of whistleblowers inside the military medical system who have access to vaccination data that is withheld from the general public.  The data on adverse medical conditions that surface after vaccination within the military is contained on a system called the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED).  The documents that were released to Thomas Renz are now being reviewed.  The resulting information is very disturbing.  The research took five-year averages of medical conditions and then compared the track record to the results after the mandatory military vaccination program was initiated.  The results are alarming:
    Heart Attacks +269%
    Pericarditis +175%
    Myocarditis +285%
    Pulmonary Embolisms +467%
    Cerebral Infarction +393%
    Bell's Palsy +319%
    Guillain-Barre +250%
    Immunodeficiencies +275%

2 Long Island Nurses Allegedly Made $1.5 Million by Selling Fake Vaccine Cards:  Officials.  Two New York-based healthcare workers were arrested for allegedly forging and selling thousands of COVID-19 vaccine cards, officials said.  The Suffolk County Police Department on Long Island said on Jan. 28 that it arrested Julie DeVuono, 49, and Marissa Urraro, 44, for allegedly selling fake vaccine cards and entering that information into the New York State Immunization Information System.  Both were charged with one count of forgery in the second degree, while DeVuono faces the additional charge of offering a false instrument for filing.  "As nurses, these two individuals should understand the importance of legitimate vaccination cards as we all work together to protect public health," Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison said in a statement.  Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond Tierney told news outlets that DeVuono, who owned Wild Child Pediatric Healthcare in Amityville, and Urraro provided fake vaccination cards.  They charged $220 for adults and $85 for children, he said.

T-Mobile to Fire Corporate Staff Who Don't Get Vaccine by April.  T-Mobile US Inc. will fire corporate employees who are not fully vaccinated against Covid-19 by April 2, according to a memo to staff obtained by Bloomberg News.  In the email to U.S. employees, the wireless carrier's human resources chief also said that office employees who haven't received the first dose of a vaccine by Feb. 21 will be placed on unpaid leave.  The policy applies to all employees who need "regular or occasional" access to T-Mobile's offices, which the company says includes almost all staff.

Israel: A Profile in Vaccine failure and a Warning to the World.  "Israel's daily COVID-19 cases reach record 83,653," says Wednesday's news wire.  "COVID-19 in Israel:  Serious cases increase tenfold in span of a month, continue to rise," announces a recent headline from the Jerusalem Post.  Elsewhere we learn that Israel's positive test rate is a staggering 29.63 percent.  This means that nearly one-third of all Covid tests taken by Israelis are coming back positive.  Israel is obviously a country in deep Covid trouble with the SARS-CoV-2 virus running out of control in that nation.  Revealingly, Israel happens to be one of the most heavily vaccinated countries in the world.  Some 80 percent of its adult population have been double vaccinated and some 55 percent have received a booster.

Sweden: The 'Benefits Do Not Outweigh the Risks' of Vaccinating Kids Against COVID.  If you're a parent of young children and are feeling pressure to get them vaccinated against COVID, I urge you to stand firm.  Or move to Sweden.  Health officials in Sweden have decided against recommending COVID vaccines for kids aged 5-12, arguing that the benefits don't outweigh the risks.  "With the knowledge we have today, with a low risk for serious disease for kids, we don't see any clear benefit with vaccinating them," Health Agency official Britta Bjorkholm said Thursday.  Studies have shown that the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are more likely to cause myocarditis in young men than natural infection from COVID.

Have you ever prayed to be wrong?  [Scroll down]  We have come to a pivotal point in this process of vaccination and boosters and abject failure to stop COVID.  We are learning that we don't have to take this vaccine and that the only rational reason for forcing it upon us is to make us all prey to the fear and get us all signed up for a nefarious digital "medical ID."  There is no other reason.  Now we know of some countries, like Israel, where they have 95% of all citizens (except for the frail elderly and babies) taking two, three, and even four shots, yet they're having more and more virus infections.  The stuff doesn't work.  Period.

Is This the Next Pandemic That Will Keep Us Masked and Shut Down After COVID?  Just because COVID may be coming to an end soon doesn't mean mask mandates, vaccine mandates, and other COVID restrictions will simply disappear.  I hate to be cynical, but considering how leftist government officials have proven themselves unwilling to give up their COVID-era control over people, it seems likely that "life will find a way" for them to continue indulging their lust for power.  In South Carolina, a duck killed by a hunter reportedly "had a contagious and dangerous bird flu that has not been detected in the wild in the U.S. in five years," according to a report from the Associated Press.  "The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspective Service (APHIS) recently announced the first detections of Asian highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5 viruses in wild birds in the United States since 2016.  Wild birds can carry HPAI A(H5N1) bird flu without showing symptoms, but these viruses can cause illness and death in domestic poultry," the CDC wrote on Thursday [1/27/2022].

Trump Calls on Congress to Rehire Every Soldier or Marine Fired by Joe Biden over Vaccine Mandate.  President Trump held another packed rally in Conroe, Texas on Saturday night [1/29/2022].  An estimated 50,000 supporters turned out to see President Trump in Texas.  President Trump praised the Canadian truckers and their historic Freedom Convoy today.  President Trump also called on Congress to rehire every man or woman in the US military who was fired over Joe Biden's vaccine mandate — and pay them back pay!  [Video clip]

The left should prepare to lose the school-mask wars.  The people in contemporary America who most pride themselves on their alleged commitment to science and public health are also the most superstitious and immune to evidence.  Nowhere is this more obvious than in the debate over masking kids at school — an ongoing, flagrant example of collective irrationality.  The supporters of mask mandates are fired by a righteous certainty that if a child comes to school unmasked, his or her school and community are at risk of a devastating outbreak of COVID; that parents who don't want to mask their kids are selfish and uncaring boobs who need to turn off Fox News; that public officials who block mask mandates, or carve out exemptions for objecting parents, have blood on their hands.

Covid mystery as double the number of men die from the virus compared to women in one Australian state.  More than twice as many men are dying from Covid in Queensland than the state's female residents, leaving medical experts baffled.  The Sunshine State has recorded 171 deaths from coronavirus since the start of the pandemic in early 2020 — with men accounting for 115 fatalities compared to the 56 deaths among women.  While a similar phenomenon has been observed in places like Italy, China and some US states, researchers are no closer to understanding what makes men more at risk.

Legacy Media Becomes Suddenly Open To The Idea Of Abandoning School Mask Mandates.  Opposing mask mandates in schools has quickly become the new hot take of the week in America's leading legacy newsrooms.  The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR and The Atlantic all ran pieces this week arguing that mask mandates for schoolchildren are unnecessary, harmful, or both.  NPR's piece was more of the reporting variety, while the others were strictly opinion, but all of them shared a common thread:  newly advocating for a position that some, particularly conservatives, have been calling for for months and years.

The Most Dangerous Time.  Today [1/26/2022], Biden announced that he was going to drop the demand that employers force-vaccinate their employees.  This comes after his poll numbers are lower than that of Nixon at the end of the Watergate hearings.  It comes after court after court, including the Supreme Court has ruled that this requirement is unconstitutional, though how they justified allowing it for federal employees or federally-funded (even when only paying for medicare and medicaid patients) hospitals remained in effect is anyone's guess.  Okay, the Supreme Court is just as corrupt as everything else, that's the answer. [...] What employers like Carhartt and Pruitt Tool and Supply ought to recognize is that the cover provided by this hapless administration is gone.  Their willingness to discriminate based on medical health records now falls on their shoulders and theirs alone.  There never has been a law that required it, nor an established regulation, other than rumors of such and so, continuing to impose a vaccine mandate now opens them up for class action lawsuits and criminal complaint.

Massive Truck Convoy Heading to Washington After Ottawa.  American truckers protesting against vaccine mandates and government overreach have been joining a record-breaking Canadian convoy of tens of thousands of vehicles headed to Ottawa.  Brian Von D, the administrator at "Convoy to DC 2022" announced that they will "join forces" to ride from California to Washington, adding that "America is next."  "As [the Canadian convoy] moved from the west to the east, [the American truckers] have been filtering into this convoy, and it is absolutely massive.  It is known worldwide, it is the largest thus far," he said in a live video on Facebook.  Tens of thousands of vehicles were reported to have departed from all parts of Canada.

Cuomo health department admits New York nursing home deaths topped 12,743 -- 49% higher than previously reported.  The health commissioner under disgraced New York Governor Andrew Cuomo confirmed Thursday that thousands more nursing home residents died of COVID-19 than the state's official tallies had previously acknowledged, dealing another blow to his image as a pandemic hero.  The surprise development, after the state for months refused to divulge its true numbers, showed that at least 12,743 long-term care residents have died of the virus as of January 19 this year -- far greater than the previous official tally of 8,505 as of that day.  The 49 percent jump in deaths from what was originally reported marks New York's toll as one of the highest in the nation.  Those numbers are consistent with a report released just hours earlier by state Attorney General Letitia James charging that the nursing home death count could be off by 49 percent, largely because New York is one of the only states to count just those who died on facility grounds, not those who later died in the hospital.

Hospital Data And Care Cannot Be Trusted.  There is now a large fraction of hospital patients being classed as COVID that are better seen as incidental COVID cases.  This means that they come into hospitals for a host of ordinary reasons; they are tested for COVID.  Even though most may be asymptomatic they test positive.  Hospitals then treat these as COVID patients in every respect.  This greatly burdens hospitals.  Their eventual outcomes depend on how treatment for the main reason they got admitted are successful.  Remember that omicron, now the dominant form of COVID, for the vast majority of people does not produce serious health problems.  When we hear about high numbers of COVID deaths in hospitals what is not clear is whether they have died from COVID or the other medical problems they went to the hospital for.  It seems that COVID deaths are being greatly overblown, especially compared to data from other countries.  Once a patient has incidental COVID and dies, that death is classed as a COVID death.  The truth is we cannot trust any of the COVID hospital data for the number of cases or deaths.

Government Expands List of Unvaccinated, Now Tracking Both Medical and Religious Exemptions.  The Commerce Department is going to keep a record of all employees seeking a medical exemption from President Joe Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, under a proposed regulation.  The new rule, placed on the Federal Register on Tuesday, will be the subject of public comment until March 28.  The proposal comes as the Biden administration considers keeping a list of workers who apply for religious exemptions to the vaccine mandate for federal employees.  The Commerce Department has about 47,000 employees and an $11.4 billion annual budget.  The new rule would undermine the personal freedom of federal employees, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., a critic of federal COVID-19 policies, said.  "As I have said repeatedly, these pointless vaccine mandates are a direct violation of the personal freedom of Americans," Johnson told The Daily Signal in a written statement.  "Treating COVID-19 medical exemptions as 'disability accommodations' shows how little the Biden administration and the COVID gods value liberty and informed consent."

Doctor's Organization Has Treated Over 150,000 COVID-19 Patients With 99.99 Percent Survival.  A doctor who has been offering free telehealth services to COVID-19 patients during the pandemic says that early treatment for COVID-19 works, claiming that he has a 99.99 percent survival rate.  "We have a team of volunteer free doctors that donate their time to help treat these patients that come to us," Dr. Ben Marble, the founder of myfreedoctor.com, an online medical consultation service, said at a roundtable discussion hosted by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on Jan. 24.  He added, "We deliver the early treatment protocols to them as early as we can, and we have a 99.99 percent survival rate.  So, I believe myfreedoctor.com, the free volunteered doctors have settled the science on this — early treatment works, period!"

COVID Vaccines Causing Miscarriages, Cancer and Neurological Disorders Among Military, DOD Data Show.  Attorney Thomas Renz on Monday [1/24/2022] told a panel of experts that data provided to him by three whistleblowers show COVID-19 vaccines are causing catastrophic harm to members of the U.S. military while not preventing them from getting the virus.  Following Monday's panel discussion on COVID vaccines and treatment protocols, led by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Renz summarized data obtained from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED), the military's longstanding epidemiological database of service members.  The data show:
  •   Miscarriages increased 300% in 2021 over the previous five-year average.
  •   Cancer increased 300% in 2021 over the previous five-year average.
  •   Neurological disorders increased 1000% in 2021 over the past five-year average, increasing from 82,000 to 863,000 in one year.
The whistleblowers provided the data knowing they would face perjury charges if they submitted false statements to the court in legal cases pending against the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).

Doctors are starting to challenge the dominant COVID paradigms.  Over the last two years of living in Fauci's America, most of the medical establishment has meekly gone along with the narrative about COVID treatments and vaccines.  Regardless of their motives, they've accepted that there are no treatments and that masks and vaccines are imperative for everyone two and older.  Any doctor who deviated from that script was stigmatized and risked losing his or her license and livelihood.  Now, though, mainstream doctors are starting to speak out against the lockdown and mask rules and even against the vaccine regime.  In medical circles, the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) is one of the most prestigious medical schools and hospitals in America.  Attending or working at UCSF carries with it tremendous cachet.  "You must be good," is what springs to people's minds when they hear those letters.  That's why it matters that four UCSF doctors, including the director of the COVID response for the emergency department, are pushing back against California governor Gavin Newsom's "mindless" COVID rules in schools.

Don't Believe OSHA When It Threatens To Turn Its Rescinded Vaccine Mandate Into a Permanent Rule.  Today [1/26/2022] the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) officially withdrew its "emergency" vaccinate-or-test mandate for private employers, acknowledging that the Supreme Court's January 13 stay blocking the rule's enforcement means it has no realistic chance of surviving judicial review.  At the same time, OSHA said it may yet seek to impose a similar mandate through the usual rule-making process.  That is quite unlikely to happen, both because of the time that process requires and because of the Supreme Court's reasoning in granting the stay.  Given these realities, any talk of turning the rescinded "emergency temporary standard" (ETS) into a permanent rule should be viewed as little more than a bureaucratic face-saving gesture.

We All Are COVID Cops Now.  It's a sneaky sleight of hand.  The authorities hide behind the curtain, making the rules (and inflicting punishment on those who don't follow them). But the face of the restrictions, the one people spit in when they're angry about the disruption to their lives?  That's your restaurant manager, your flight attendant, your minimum wage cashier.  Not everyone thinks this is a bad thing.  Some people — the Brooklyn bouncer who reportedly turned away a patron for being vaccinated with an inferior brand, the flight attendant who's just a little too stoked about banning two-year olds who don't wear their masks correctly — are all too happy not just to wield this power but to abuse it.  But for those of us who never wanted to play cop, being essentially blackmailed into the role is not just a constant reminder that things are far from normal; it's an endless source of stress.

U.S. Navy Begins Discharging Sailors Who Refuse Coronavirus Vaccine.  The U.S. Navy announced Wednesday it has discharged 45 service members who refused to accept inoculation with the coronavirus vaccine.  The personnel were released after failing to meet the November 28 deadline set by the Pentagon for the injection.  Twenty-three active duty sailors were amongst those let go.  UPI reports the Navy said in a statement of those discharged, 22 were considered entry-level separations as they occurred during the initial training periods within their first 180 days of active service.

D.C. Moves To Suspend Burger Joint's Liquor License for Resisting the City's Vaccine Mandate.  The District of Columbia plans to suspend a burger joint's liquor license because it has been refusing to check its customers' vaccination papers.  In a closed executive session yesterday, the city's Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) Board voted to refer the restaurant, known as The Big Board, to D.C.'s Office of the Attorney General to draft a summary suspension notice.  That's the first step in suspending a liquor license.

Finally Noticing Lockdowns Are Killing Kids Does Not Absolve The Left.  It has been two years since the world first noticed people were getting sick and dying from a novel coronavirus that originated in Wuhan, China.  As the seriousness of the disease became more apparent, policymakers around the world struggled with how to respond.  Eventually, many leaders settled on policies of draconian lockdowns and restrictions in an effort to stop the spread of the virus.  As these restrictions dragged on for months and years, some leaders trimmed their sails; some changed course completely.  But most policy makers failed to keep in mind the fundamental axiom of governing, most pithily stated by Thomas Sowell:  there are no solutions, there are only trade-offs.  Now it is becoming clear that most of the policies they chose, like all policy choices, were not consequence-free.  Sadly, America's school children appear to have borne the brunt of their choices.

LA Will Give Super Bowl Attendees 5-Layer Face Masks.  If you're planning to attend February 13th's Super Bowl, you might want to get busy coordinating your clothes.  You'll need a team-colored shirt, jacket, hat, socks... and medical mask.  As reported by CNN, this year's stadium shindig will be an anonymous affair:  Everyone's faces will be obscured.  And that's too bad, because the location is the "Land of the Beautiful People."  The event's being held in that haven of iconic American liberty, Los Angeles.  Hence, per LA County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer, vaccination booths will be set up outside — providing first, second, or booster doses of the country's favorite pharmaceutical fix.

Woodgrove High School in Virginia is Giving Masked Students 15 More Minutes of Lunch Time.  If you thought teachers around the country couldn't get any more pathetic in their attempts to control their students, look at this Virginia school that is possibly violating the Governors new anti-Mask executive order.  Listen as the teacher on the microphone tells unmasked students they will only receive 15 minutes for lunch, while masked students will get 30 minutes for lunch time.  [Video clip]

Woke School Forced A Young Girl To Sit In A Cold Vestibule For Hours Without Access To Food Or Water Because She Didn't Wear A Mask.  More than a dozen county officials across New York, including in Saratoga County, have said they will not enforce an indoor mask mandate that went into effect last month after some county executives said they were told by Gov. Kathy Hochul's administration to avoid diverting resources to crack down on violations of the order.  But it seems that some woke schools decided to go hard on students that don't want to wear masks!  They used some soviet style education!  At Colonie Central High School, a student was allegedly asked to leave school Tuesday because she wouldn't wear a mask.  A video taken by the student's father shows a high school administrator explaining in a vestibule outside the school doors that masks are required and that "we are doing the best we can to enforce school policy for the safety of students."

Different Decade, Same Propaganda, Trust the Doctors, Trust the Science....  It's been over 70 years since this commercial was released and yet the propaganda being used back then is no different than the propaganda used today.  Back then crooked doctors bowed and did what they were told for money, today they do what they're told out of fear and for money.  Same story, different day.  [Video clip]

COVID Mandates are Devastating Our Schools.  Masking, testing, and vaccination mandates are devastating our schools.  Two-thirds of the United States have shown that these mandates are not necessary for safe operation of schools, yet children and teachers are continuing to suffer in over a dozen states.  Here in New Mexico, a state already known for its failing educational system, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham's COVID mandates are physically, emotionally, and mentally damaging to our children, teachers, and school personnel.  This damage is not isolated to one particular school or district; it is happening all over the state to New Mexicans young and old, Latino and white, wealthy and poor.  And there are no obvious benefits.  New Mexico has one of the highest vaccination rates in the country and has been under a statewide mask mandate for nearly two years.  Even though many already have natural immunity, our teachers are mandated to receive COVID shots and booster shots, or else face unfair testing and quarantine requirements.  Students and teachers are forced to wear masks in school, and even outdoors in some districts.  Nonetheless, we are currently experiencing one of the worst COVID surges in the country, with high hospitalization and death rates.

Woman with a Disability Can't Wear a Mask, This is how the Australian Gestapo Responds.  A woman with a lung issue was slammed face first into the concrete when an unknown caller informed the police a woman was walking around OUTSIDE without wearing her mask.  The video above shows the cops response.  According to bystanders, the woman did not enter any stores and did not engage in any conversations with a single person.  The woman was simply walking around and enjoying some fresh air as the man who recorded it shared on his social media account.  [Video clip]

Vaccines are Destroying the US Military According to the DoD.  As if you need any more proof that these vaccines are killing or permanently injuring people, listen to a DoD whistleblower show the stats they're seeing and hiding from the public.  "We have substantial data showing that we saw, for example, miscarriages increasing by 300% over the five-year average, almost.  We saw almost 300% increase in cancer over the five-year average."  [Video clip]

364% Increase in Speech Issues Due to COVID Nazi's Mask Policies.  A speech therapist in Florida is sounding the alarm on the CDC's insistence on mask wearing after noticing a massive uptick in the number of children suffering from speech delays and other mask-induced issues.  Jaclyn Theek, a clinic director and speech-language pathologist at the Speech and Learning Institute in North Palm Beach told ABC news affiliate WPBF that she saw a whopping 364 percent increase in the number of referrals for children suffering from speech delays in 2021, suggesting mask-wearing may be causing unprecedented damage to healthy childhood development.  [Video clip]

The Democrat Party's Application of Mass Formation Psychosis.  World-renowned psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin was the first to examine the psychological impacts of the global response to the COVID pandemic.  An October 6, 2021, article for American Greatness reported his views on how a cabal of billionaire elites is behind a global propaganda campaign to keep us all separated from one another, afraid, then docile and, finally, obedient under their control[.]  Dr. Robert Malone (who was one of the inventors of the mRNA vaccine) has spoken out against the way in which vaccines have been employed and distributed.  Recently, on Joe Rogan's show, he discussed Ghent University (Belgium) professor Dr. Mattias Desmet's hypothesis and studies of Mass Formation Psychosis and governments' responses to the global COVID pandemic.  This resulted in his Twitter account being suspended, while Google searches on the topic apparently crashed their search algorithms.  This informative 13-minute video from Dr. Malone succinctly sums up the Mass Formation theory as applied to America's COVID reaction:  [Video clip]

Sen. Ron Johnson Hosts "Second Opinion" Panel on America's Problematic Pandemic Response.  This discussion on the special "Second Opinion" panel that Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) hosted is a perfect example of one of the root problems in the American response to the covid pandemic:  The press.  Johnson organized world-renowned doctors and medical experts to offer a different perspective on the pandemic:  global pandemic response, the current state of knowledge of early and hospital treatment, vaccine efficacy and safety, what went right, what went wrong, what should be done now, and what needs to be addressed long term.  The panel discussion was held this Monday [1/24/2022], and [...] I strongly encourage anyone interested in the scientific challenges to the pandemic response that have been suppressed under the guise of "misinformation" to watch as much as they can, if not all, of qualified medical experts who are disturbed by the approaches developed by Dr. Anthony Fauci and the rest of the federal health bureaucracy.

The Pandemic Endgame — Is There One?  As we all slog into year three of this pandemic and the debates about mandates, masks, and a staggered economy, it feels as if we have lost sight of something important; namely, how does this end?  At what point do we all just take a step back and return to some sense of normalcy, i.e., a pre-pandemic state?  It's like a bad TV series that is going on one season too long... you just want it to end.  Early on, back in those bygone days when the media taught us all how to wash our hands, there was talk that we would be able to return to our normal lives.  If we had a certain percentage of people vaccinated, or if the infection rates dropped to a certain level, this might be over.  Now those conversations are gone.  Also gone is the concept of being done with all this.  What we get instead is municipalities demanding that you show proof of your vaccine status to enter businesses, and mask mandates that have no end in sight.  There is no longer talk of normalcy at all.

Fox News Special Report outlines fresh questions on what Fauci, government knew about COVID origin.  Fresh questions are being raised about what American scientists and federal health officials knew about the origins of the coronavirus and whether conflicting evidence was suppressed and hidden from the public.  On Tuesday night's [1/25/2022] episode of Special Report with Bret Baier, Fox News dove into the early days of the coronavirus pandemic and explored documents obtained showing that Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, was warned early on that the virus may have originated in a Wuhan, China lab.

The Rise of Blockchain Republics.  When Prime Minister Boris Johnson recently announced an end to some medical mandates and virus-related restrictions in the United Kingdom, I thought:  "This is a victory for nation-states over unitary global government."  The reason the prime minister turned a 180 on his country's COVID-1984 tyranny seems to be intricately linked to his own personal scandals involving the breaking of various lockdown, masking, and social gathering rules that form the crux of the U.K.'s totalitarian health regime.  If Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Bill Gates, or Anthony Fauci had complete control over the queen's realm, you can bet that the mandates would never go away.  However, Boris is facing a vote of no confidence in Parliament and seeks to rally support from an increasingly fatigued and unhappy public by putting an end to what should never have been put in place.  Once again, localized politics has cut the legs out from underneath the monster of international hegemony.  This is a good thing.

Fauci warns it is too early to believe that the U.S. has its COVID-19 situation under control.  Dr Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, issued a warning Wednesday that it is too early to consider Covid 'controlled' in the U.S.  During a Covid briefing Wednesday, the director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Disease warned that the current Covid situation is not as optimistic as some officials and experts are saying.  Covid cases are starting to decline in the U.S. after skyrocketing at the end of 2021 and reaching a peak of 800,000 cases per day earlier this month — more than triple the previous case record set last winter.  The rapid spread of Omicron, combined with the relatively mild nature of the variant has many experts and officials hopeful that this strain will be what transitions the pandemic into an endemic.

Today's batch of COVID information provides food for thought.  Today, I have multiple tabs about vaccines, COVID treatments, and some governments' responses to COVID.  Taken together, the reports create a powerful narrative:  in America, the government continues to block COVID therapeutics; as people warned when mRNA vaccines came out, they are dangerous; and governments at home and abroad continue to use the vaccine as a pathway to total power.

What COVID Has Revealed About The Nation's Young.  Why in the world are young people so terrified of COVID? [...] Just as young people are more susceptible to the siren song of socialism — despite its long and horrifying record of abject failure — they are more likely to believe whatever nonsense government officials spoon feed them.  Seniors, in contrast, are showing their wisdom and their ability to put risks in context.  We'd also blame Anthony Fauci and the army of nattering "public health" nabobs, who have utterly failed in their job of providing accurate information to the public.  Instead of making it clear that the risk from COVID is almost entirely concentrated among certain smallish segments of the population, they've spent the past two years terrifying everyone.  Instead of encouraging the at-risk groups to take extra precautions, they forced everyone to act as though their lives depended on hiding in the basement.  We'd bet that this broad-brush approach cost more lives than it saved.  Then there are the leftist politicians — aided and abetted by corporate media — who immediately saw the opportunity of a lifetime to advance their command-and-control agenda, so long as they could keep everyone in a state of panic (in the name of "science," of course).

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and State Health Officials Directly Call the White House and FDA Liars During Monoclonal Treatment Fight.  The FDA decision to block COVID-19 treatment options is very sketchy, and I sense that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis knows the science will not support the Biden administration.  This story -when exposed- has the potential to bring down the Biden administration, big time... DeSantis senses it.  Earlier today, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis held a roundtable press conference with physicians, clinicians and other health officials in Florida to denounce the Biden FDA decision to revoke monoclonal antibody treatments as a therapeutic option.  The FDA action was not only done without communication, but the decision was also made without study and without any input from the treatment side of the COVID-19 dynamic.  [Video clip]

About Those Free COVID-19 Tests Joe Biden Sent You.  The Biden administration decided to send all Americans free COVID-19 tests to address the omicron surge.  So far, the ordered tests are getting delivered unless you live in an apartment.  As our editor Paula Boylard noted, those living in colder parts of the country may also have their tests left out in the cold.  The COVID tests are not supposed to be stored in temperatures under 36°F.  Fox's Bill Hemmer received the four tests he ordered and noted another odd feature. [...] It makes perfect sense, of course.  The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) sent citizens from Wuhan all over the world early in the pandemic while restricting their travel within China.  Now, two years later, Chinese companies are profiting from the fallout.

Nothing is free.  Somebody paid for it.
US gives more than 400 million free vaccine doses to poor countries.  The US has shipped more than 400 million free COVID-19 vaccine doses to 112 needy countries around the world, the White House said Wednesday [1/26/2022].  "Today, we will hit a major milestone in our global effort:  400 million vaccine doses shipped to 112 countries ... for free, no strings attached," White House COVID-19 coordinator Jeff Zients said at a press conference.  "Put America's leadership into perspective.  We have shipped four times more free doses to the world than any other country," he said.  The donated jabs include 42 million doses delivered to Pakistan, 28 million to Bangladesh and 24 million to the Philippines, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonprofit that tracks the US' vaccine shipments.  The giveaway is part of President Biden's plan to send 1.2 billion doses to low-income countries including 30 nations in Africa, 20 in Asia and 25 in the Western Hemisphere to combat vaccine inequity.

The Editor says...
Is the U.S. giving away vaccines "to combat vaccine inequity," or to combat the disease?  Which one is more important?

I Regret Getting the COVID Vaccine.  [Scroll down]  After my parents got vaccinated, I followed.  Within five hours of my shot, I had a severe headache and was unable to multitask.  I retired to bed early, and the next morning, every joint was achy and stiff, making me wonder if this is how I'd feel at age 100.  My headache persisted along with difficulty concentrating.  For the next six weeks, I was fatigued, with my body wanting to sleep at 6 rather than 9 P.M.  When the 28-day mark passed, my brain was still processing slower, and I wondered if I'd ever return to my usual self.  My antibody test was positive, and I wasn't planning another shot.  Three weeks later, the employee health department was liquidating its vaccine inventory from lack of demand.  Meanwhile, local pharmacies couldn't maintain supply.  The unremitting fatigue had finally lifted, so I went to request a booster dose and left with my second jab.  This time, I developed a fever within an hour of the jab and went to bed at 5 P.M.  Around midnight, my husband found me burning hot with fever and shaking uncontrollably, so he woke me to give me ibuprofen.  By the next morning, I was fine.  However, a few months later, I developed a tingling pain in my back that ran from my shoulders to my hips that recurs when I overheat.  Although I didn't initially attribute this to the vaccine, my symptoms match the prickling, burning pain described post-vaccine.

New York Appeals Court Grants Stay, Allowing State to Reinstate Mask Mandate.  New York's indoor mask mandate for schools and other public locations will remain in effect after an appeals court judge granted a stay on Tuesday, temporarily blocking a ruling from a lower court that struck down the mandate one day earlier.  Justice Robert Miller's ruling on Tuesday effectively allows the mask requirement to temporarily go back into effect while the state files a formal appeal of the Monday ruling.  Another hearing is scheduled on the mask mandate for Friday morning.

OSHA withdraws vaccine-or-test rule for large employers.  The Occupational Safety and Health Administration announced Tuesday that it is pulling the Biden administration's vaccine-or-test rule for large employers about two weeks after the Supreme Court blocked the rule from going into effect.  "The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration is withdrawing the vaccination and testing emergency temporary standard issued on Nov. 5, 2021, to protect unvaccinated employees of large employers with 100 or more employees from workplace exposure to coronavirus," the agency wrote in a release, noting the withdrawal is effective Wednesday [1/26/2022].  In a 6-3 decision on Jan. 13, the high court had ruled that OSHA's vaccine-or-test rule on businesses with at least 100 employees was an overstep in federal authority.

FDA Restricts Use of 2 Monoclonal Antibody Treatments.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced Jan. 24 it is restricting the use of two monoclonal antibody treatments for COVID-19, saying data show such treatments are "highly unlikely" to be active against the Omicron variant, currently the dominant strain in the country.  Monoclonal antibodies are laboratory-created proteins that mimic natural antibodies the body produces to fight off harmful pathogens, such as the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, also known as the novel coronavirus.  The agency revised its emergency authorization for the two COVID-19 treatments that come from Regeneron and Eli Lilly.  Their use is now limited to when the COVID-19 patient is "likely to have been infected with or exposed to a variant that is susceptible to these treatments."

Without Notice FDA Revokes Monoclonal Antibody Treatments for COVID, Promote Difficult to Find Pfizer and Merck Pills as Replacements.  This is some next level sketchy, borderline evil, stuff from the U.S. medical establishment.  The FDA has revoked the authorization status of monoclonal antibody treatments, effectively shutting down the treatment option for patients exposed to COVID-19.  The FDA gave no advanced notice of their arbitrary decision; they just issued a press release Monday evening and immediately revoked the Emergency Use Authorization.  The result was that no states were given any time to prepare for the shutdown or cancel the scheduled appointments of their patients.

OSHA Removes Worker Vaccine Mandate Rule Effective Tomorrow Claiming It Was Only a Suggestion.  Even in a defeat from the United States Supreme Court, the political weasels running the U.S. Dept of Labor cannot reverse their position without lying and obfuscating.  The U.S. Dept of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announces their withdrawal of the employee vaccine mandate that was ruled unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court.  However, note how they change the prior enforcement order from a "mandate" to a mere suggestion: "strongly encouraging vaccination."  [Illustration]  The effective date of the reversal is tomorrow, January 26, 2022.  However, in reversing their position notice how OSHA attempts to rewrite history and claim they were only "strongly encouraging vaccination."

Fairfax Schools Suspend Kids, Call Police As System Defies Virginia Governor On Masks.  Fairfax County Public Schools made a show of defying Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin's order that schools respect parental rights on masking on Tuesday, with an assistant principal standing in front of the school to suspend students without masks, and a public relations staffer who said the media was not allowed to watch the conflict between state and local governments play out.  At one classroom exterior door, a teacher in a dark mask and a full-face plastic shield resembled Darth Vader as she peered through the glass and, after seeing a masked child out front, opened the door a crack to let him in.  Providing muscle was a large security guard who inadvertently illustrated parents' concerns by removing his mask to lecture a parent because "I can't speak with this thing."  At another point, the security guard lashed out at a former school board member after his own mask caused his glasses to fog up to the point that he could not see who he was talking to.

New State Law Would Make It Illegal To [Ask] A Person's Vaccine Status.  A new law proposed in South Carolina could make it illegal for an employer or other organization to ask about a person's vaccine status.  South Carolina House Bill 4848, also called the "don't ask" bill, would make questions about a person's COVID-19 status a misdemeanor crime.  "Notwithstanding another provision of law to the contrary, any employee, officer, agent, or other representative of a public, nonprofit, or private entity who inquires about the COVID-19 vaccination status of any student, employee, member, or anyone else seeking admission on the entity's premises is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, must be fined not more than fourteen thousand dollars or imprisoned not more than one year, or both." the bill's text states.  Republican state Rep. Bill Chumley served as one of the co-sponsors of the newly-proposed bill.

DeSantis wars with Biden FDA over monoclonal antibodies — here's why.  Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a major supporter of monoclonal antibody treatments for COVID-19, is going to war with the Biden administration over the Food and Drug Administration's revocation of authorization for two antibody cocktails found to be ineffective against the omicron variant.  DeSantis, a Republican who has gained support from conservatives for his opposition to pandemic restrictions and mandates, is arguing that COVID-19 patients should be able to decide for themselves whether to take the two brands of antibodies in question and that the FDA's decision was based on lab results rather than clinical data.

Boston patient removed from heart transplant list for being unvaccinated.  A 31-year-old father has been removed from the heart transplant list at a Boston hospital because he is refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine, his family said.  DJ Ferguson's family say he was first on the list to receive the transplant at Brigham and Women's Hospital — but he is no longer eligible because of his vaccination status, CBS Boston reported.

Virginia Schools Threaten Maskless Students With Suspension, Isolation.  Two Virginia school districts are making life difficult for students who come to class without masks.  Effective Monday [1/24/2022], an executive order from Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R.) gave parents the right to decide whether their children wore masks to school.  But unmasked students in Loudoun County this week were separated from their classmates and sequestered in gymnasiums and auditoriums.  In Frederick County, students were threatened with suspensions or sent home for refusing to wear a mask.  A group of maskless students on Tuesday at Sherando High School in Frederick County were escorted to the auditorium immediately upon arrival.  There, school officials informed them that they could be sent home if they didn't mask up.  Parents said they had no indication that suspension was a possibility.

Dealing with Cognitive Dissonance.  [Scroll down]  Take the case of a pro-abortion advocate whose main argument is "it's my body and I have the right to make my own medical decisions," who also believes in mandatory vaccines, even against someone's personal will.  How can this be resolved?  Looking at the coping behaviors listed above, someone might feel very uncomfortable learning that the vaccines are not as effective as promised, or the side effects are more dangerous than the disease. [...] Another example is the view that people should be required to carry a vaccine passport, while simultaneously thinking that voter ID is racist.  If people must be identified to ensure they've been vaccinated and boosted to protect others, why is it a bad idea for people to be properly identified in order to vote?  What about people who might cheat by purchasing a fake vax passport?  Isn't that just as bad as people who might vote using someone else's name?

Liberal Virginia School Boards File Suit Against Youngkin's Mask Order.  School boards in seven of Virginia's liberal enclaves on Monday filed suit against Gov. Glenn Youngkin's (R.) executive order that allows parents to choose whether their children wear masks in school.  Officials from Arlington County and Fairfax County joined five other districts in challenging Youngkin's order.  The districts claim the order, which took effect on Monday, "is in conflict with the Constitution and state law."  Youngkin campaigned on education issues including giving parents the authority to mask or not mask their children in the classroom.  Immediately following his Jan. 15 inauguration, the governor signed a series of executive orders to fulfill major campaign promises.  In addition to overturning mask mandates, Youngkin signed an executive order banning left-wing race and gender ideology from the classroom.

COVID-19 Can Be Stopped Without Massive Vaccination:  Dr. Peter McCullough.  COVID-19 can be stopped without massive vaccination, renowned cardiologist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough told NTD's "Capitol Report" program during the "Defeat the Mandates" march in Washington D.C., on Jan. 23.  According to McCullough, early treatment and natural immunity are safe and effective against COVID-19, but federal health agencies have ignored these in a push for vaccines, the broad use of which is not needed.  "The government has certainly been in an oblivion in terms of early treatment," he said.  Thousands of people turned out to march in protest against COVID-19 vaccine mandates — one of the largest U.S. events against the mandates since the start of the pandemic.

Fit to Be Fat.  A curious example of the power of social trends on thought is that two years into the Covid pandemic, nobody of any influence has yet bothered to launch a campaign to persuade Americans to do the one obvious non-pharmaceutical intervention that would make Americans healthier whether the virus stays or goes:  lose some weight.  Instead, 2022 has seen new gains in the long, grinding campaign to make the fat another of those privileged classes whose self-image cannot be affronted.  For example, Nike, with its $3.6 billion ad budget, tweeted out under the title "Styles for Self Love" a picture of a 250-pound black woman dressed head to toe in Nike garb and looking mighty pleased with herself.  Similarly, Self magazine devoted its "Future of Fitness" issue to Maoist-style self-criticism, with articles like "The Relentless Reality of Anti-Fatness in Fitness."  (Well, yeah, that's kind of the point of all that exercising:  to not be fat.)  Not surprisingly, that article was also illustrated with a photo of another smug 250-pound black woman.  Yet, it's not a secret that heaviness is a major risk factor for both Covid and a host of other ailments.

White House defends FDA closure of monoclonal antibody treatment centers in Florida.  Following the move by the Food and Drug Administration to close Florida's monoclonal antibody treatment sites after the federal government abruptly removed the treatments from Emergency Use Authorizations, the White House stated that the treatments used by the state do not work against the omicron variant and have side effects.  "The FDA yesterday, withdrew the EUA for some monoclonal antibody treatments because they don't work against omicron.  But Florida continues to push for the treatment for people in the state.  What's your response to Governor DeSantis?  And what's your message to the people in Florida?" one reporter asked.

A Real American Hero:  RFK Jr And The Vaccine Madness.  Wonder much about the eerie blank demeanor of Erin Burnett, who delivers the 7:00 o'clock news on CNN?  I sure do. [...] Anyway, nothing serves as a better barometer of how things are going in the struggle over the fate of this tortured land than Erin Burnett's scowling puss.  And where is this country going?  I will tell you:  straight into a dark passage of the profoundest political discord, an epochal nightmare of loss and death brought on, it begins to seem, deliberately, by the folks in charge.  They are being found out, and the fact that they remain in charge spells ever more obvious danger among all concerned as the truth of their crimes emerges.  Sunday [1/23/2022], at the March Against Mandates in our nation's capital, the resistance to Covid vaccine tyranny laid it out, none with plainer eloquence than Bobby Kennedy. [...] Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the UK tossed his country's entire Covid restriction program into the dumpster last week as the truth about vaccine failure and injuries became impossible to avoid.  The Czech Republic and Ireland followed.

OSHA Pulls Private Vaccine Mandate After Supreme Court Loss.  The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will withdraw a rule mandating that private businesses with more than 100 employees require that they be vaccinated against COVID-19 or undergo weekly testing against the virus.  OSHA will formally withdraw the rule on Wednesday, according to a document published Tuesday in an advanced version of the Federal Register.  The rule, announced in November by President Joe Biden, was immediately challenged by several states and private companies, and the Supreme Court issued a stay on Jan. 13 while federal appeals courts consider its legality.

What's Up With Monoclonals?  Way back in September, Lifesite ran a story on the potential dangers from treatment with monoclonal antibodies.  If you'll recall, not only Ron DeSantis but prominent medical authorities were pushing this treatment hard — including many of the early treatment proponents. [...] The FDA has now withdrawn Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for monoclonal antibodies.  The official story is that these medications are ineffective against Omicron.  Well, they're "less" effective than against earlier variants.  Or, in the alternative, they're "highly unlikely" to help.  OK, but the same could be said about the "vaccines" — certainly as regards Ominous Omicron.  So what's up?  If they're "less" likely or even "highly unlikely" to help, maybe they're worth a try.  Maybe at a steeply discounted price, right?

New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern shrugs off car chase by anti-vaccination protesters.  New Zealand's prime minister Jacinda Ardern has said "at no point was I worried about my safety" after her van was chased and forced on to a curb by anti-vaccination protesters.  Footage of the incident, which took place last week, was posted to social media in recent days.  It shows protesters shouting slogans at the van, including "shame on you," and "we do not consent".  A person filming inside a car is heard saying "there's Jacinda" and "Oh this is fun, we're on a chase."  The car pursues the prime minister's van and at one point someone inside calls the prime minister "a Nazi" and shouts various obscenities.  As their vehicle tries to block the van, the van is forced on to the curb to avoid it, then continues on.  Asked about the incident on Tuesday afternoon, Ardern said it was "just another day".

Florida Officials Fight Back After White House Cuts Off Lifesaving COVID Treatments.  Early Tuesday [1/25/2022] Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced that without warning the Biden administration cut off lifesaving monoclonal antibody treatments for patients suffering from Wuhan coronavirus.  At the time of the announcement 2000 Floridians, the majority of whom are vaccinated, were scheduled to receive the treatment.  "Without a shred of clinical data to support this action, Biden has forced trained medical professionals to choose between treating their patients or breaking the law," DeSantis released in a statement.  "This indefensible edict takes treatment out of the hands of medical professionals and will cost some Americans their lives.  There are real-world implications to Biden's medical authoritarianism — Americans' access to treatments is now subject to the whims of a failing president."

NY Gov's mask mandate shot down at state Supreme Court.  When Kathy Hochul took over Andrew Cuomo's old job as Governor of New York State, she initially seemed to take a cautious approach to imposing COVID restrictions on the Empire State.  She continues to insist that she doesn't want to do anything to shut the economy down again, but her "impatience" with those who refuse to be vaccinated has been obvious.  Her position changed a bit last month, however, when new case numbers began rising again in parts of the state, particularly in and around New York City.  At that point, she imposed a statewide face mask mandate, saying she would revisit the issue this winter as circumstances evolved.  But last night a State supreme court judge took the decision out of her hands, striking down the mandate as being an overreach of her powers as the head of the state's executive branch.

A New York court rules that New York state's latest mask mandate must go.  The Hon. Thomas Rademaker, sitting on the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau, had before him the case of Demetriou, et al v. New York State Department of Health, et al.  The plaintiffs, acting on behalf of school-aged children, were challenging the most recent mask mandate that came from the State of New York.  Although Gov. Hochul had become the face of the latest mandate, which applies to everyone two years old and older, it was actually the work of Mary T. Bassett, the Commission of Health for New York state.  It came nine months after the New York legislature, having had it with former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's unilaterally assumption of complete control over New York's health system via executive mandate, passed Executive Law § 29-A.  In his opinion, Rademaker explained that the statute "prevents the type of mandates and directives that former Governor Cuomo included in his various COVID-19 related executive orders."  Because of that new law, when Hochul, on November 26, declared a disaster emergency in New York, she could not unilaterally include with that declaration a mask mandate.

New York Judge Strikes Down Governor Hochul's Mask Mandate.  A New York State Supreme Court judge on Monday [1/24/2022] ruled that Governor Kathy Hochul's mask mandate for schools and other public locations is unconstitutional.  Judge Thomas Rademaker found that the governor and the state health commissioner did not have the authority to enact a mask mandate without the state legislature, given that the governor no longer has emergency powers.  The mask mandate has been in place since mid-December, when the state saw a surge in the highly transmissible Omicron variant.  "There can be no question that every person in this State wishes, wants and prays that this era of COVID ends soon and they will surely do their part to see that is accomplished," Rademaker wrote in his decision.  "However, enacting any laws to this end is entrusted solely to the State Legislature.  While the intentions of Commissioner Bassett and Governor Hochul appear to be well aimed squarely at doing what they believe is right to protect the citizens of New York State, they must take their case to the State Legislature."

Biden's personal Covid fears.  As Omicron began storming the country in December, the president and the vice president changed their own masking protocols.  At the advice of their personal health advisers, they largely ditched the black surgical masks they previously sported and began wearing KN95's weeks before the CDC updated their own masking guidance.  The change reflects a dynamic within this White House — one that's dictated everything from internal operations to the president's travel schedule and could very well scuttle his ambitions to criss cross the country more this year.  They're terrified of Joe Biden getting Covid.  Some current and former White House officials foresee a potential political and policy disaster if the president were to contract the virus, even though he is vaccinated and boosted.

Harvard's, Yale's, Stanford's, Duke's and other universities' endowments balloon after COVID lockdowns.  Harvard University has had a good COVID lockdown period, according to university records.  In fact, Harvard, and a slew of other universities, have made a pile. [...] Harvard attributed the sudden gain in their position to "generous contributions" and a "disciplined focus on financial management."  The more likely reason, according to the anonymous researcher, whose Twitter handle is "show me the data" is that COVID lockdowns, which converted all university learning from regular classroom learning, to Zoom classrooms, with no corresponding drop in price, has left a lot of money on the table for universities such as Harvard.  These universities have cut services, yet delivered the same product without them, making themselves piles and piles of money.

Two women show how completely insane COVID mania has driven people.  One of the points I've been making over the years of political writing is that leftism has driven young white women crazy.  They are imbued with self-loathing because they're White but nevertheless feel a deep sense of victimhood because they're female.  A recent video, however, indicates that it's not just young women whom leftism has driven insane.  The video seems to show two older women, upon finding an unmasked young Black man on an elevator, wildly attacking him as they try desperately to get him and his unmasked self off the elevator.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Has a Massive Protest Brewing Over His Jab Mandate.  Ladies and gentlemen, we have a unique event happening with our neighbors from the "Great White North" in Canada, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in for a bit of a rough ride.  A truck convoy is heading to the nation's capital in Ottawa and they are looking to make their voices heard via the idling of diesel engines not delivering goods throughout the country.  They are not in love with "Al Jolson" Trudeaus' mandate that forces truckers crossing the U.S. border to get the jab and are heading to let the P.M. and his government know about it.

Doctors Diagnose Problems With Nation's COVID-19 Response.  Dr. Robert Malone became widely known recently for being banned on Twitter and for an interview on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast diverging from the prevailing view on COVID-19.  "I'm speaking to you not only as a physician and scientist, but also as a father and grandfather.  I'm also a COVID survivor.  In my opinion, we should never have politicized the public health response to COVID-19," Malone said Monday on Capitol Hill. [...] Malone, a virologist and immunologist who specializes in mRNA technology used in the vaccines, spoke during "COVID-19: A Second Opinion," an event featuring doctors and scientists sponsored by Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., to focus on alternative treatments beyond vaccinations.  Malone noted a high rate of infection caused by the omicron variant of COVID-19 among the vaccinated population.  So, he said, "mandating these vaccines makes no sense."

Stop Treating Healthy Kids Like They're Sick.  Prior to Covid, parents used to joke about kids being germ warfare labs, little perpetually snotty vectors who share anything and everything at school and the playground.  There was truth to it.  Any parent who has sent his kid to daycare or school for the first time is acutely aware of how many germs they catch, spread, and defeat during the first few months.  With the arrival of Covid, that harmless joke has turned into a collective case of Munchausen syndrome by proxy.  Healthy kids are all treated as suspect and potential grandma killers.  In places they are fortunate enough to have school, the kids are often forced to mask, to learn in pods, to not socialize outside of people in their class, even during recess, and, worst of all, to quarantine after close contact with a student or teacher who tests positive.

Inside The Latest Protest Against Vaccine Coercion At The Nation's Capital.  Thousands from across the world gathered in the U.S. capital to protest the Covid-19 vaccination mandates recently put in place in cities across the country, most prominently last week in Washington, D.C., in an event called "Defeat the Mandates:  An American Homecoming."  Protesters marched from the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial, where they heard speeches and music, all encouraging noncompliance of the vaccine mandates.  Speakers ranged from doctors to comedians to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.  The overall message of the day was clear:  vaccine mandates are unconstitutional and must be abolished.  Nearly every speaker also preached a more surprising message of love, bipartisanship, unity, and peace.

"Omicron Transmission is Likely Facilitated by The Vaccines".  On Monday [1/24/2022], Dr. Robert Malone spoke alongside several other world-renowned doctors and medical experts during a panel discussion that was hosted by Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI)[.] [...] During the event, Dr. Malone, who is one of the esteemed inventors behind the mRNA technology that is being used in the experimental Covid vaccines, stressed that the worldwide campaign to vaccinate everyone under the sun, and hook them on perpetual boosters, is actually severely detrimental to the prospects of ever getting past this shamdemic — especially, he says, with the emergence of the highly infectious, but overtly mild, Omicron variant.  According to Dr. Malone, if the public health regime continues to push this terrible universal vaccination policy, it will keep driving the virus to mutate, potentially to a state where it may be "more pathogenic and more able to elude immune response."

Nike fires fully-vaccinated marketing manager from its Oregon HQ for refusing to upload his COVID shot details to third party app.  A long-time Nike employee was fired after refusing to supply his COVID-19 vaccination records to a third-party verification service used by the sportswear giant.  Dex Briggs, 53, claims he was terminated from his marketing manager position at Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon earlier this month after a 26-year run with the company — despite being fully-vaccinated against the virus and offering to show bosses his vaccination card.  Briggs, who is married with a son, says he found the company's vaccination verification process too worrying to comply with.  It sees vaccination records uploaded to software created by unidentified third-party firm.

School boards sue to keep masks on kids after Republican Governor makes it optional.  Seven Virginia school boards are taking legal action over Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin's executive order that made masks optional in the state's schools starting Monday [1/24/2022].  Youngkin issued an executive order upon taking office Jan. 15 which seeks to "empower Virginia parents in their children's education and upbringing by allowing parents to make decisions on whether their child wears a mask in school." [...] School districts across Virginia plan to defy the governor's executive order that allows parents to decide whether or not their children should wear masks at school.

Never Forgive or Forget the Enablers of the Destructive Covid Panic.  [Scroll down]  These are the people who 22 months ago chose to ignore statistics from Italy and other countries as well as the writings of world renowned scientists that refuted the fictitious justification for mass societal lockdowns.  Instead, they reflexively regurgitated any and all government-sponsored falsehoods.  Further, they mindlessly continued to do so during the entirety of the pandemic.  Regardless of the actual data or the human cost, they marched in lockstep to whatever the leftist-dominated federal medical bureaucracy and the self-serving Democrat party hierarchy declared as being indisputable.  These are the people who vociferously condemned, ostracized and demanded censorship of those medical professionals and conservative journalists that knew not to trust the media and the medical bureaucracy and who shouted from the rooftops that the nation had embarked on a calamitous course.  The social media oligarchs, soon to disavow their part in the "catastrophic moral crime," played their role in making certain that dissenting voices, particularly in the medical community, were irrevocably silenced.  Had 2020 not been a presidential election year and Donald Trump not the incumbent, the lies, the lockdowns, the unwarranted closure of schools, the suppression of existing therapeutics, the deliberate obfuscation of deaths due to Covid-19, the premeditated erosion of individual liberties, the unending decrees and the near-criminal mandates for a one-size-fits-all experimental vaccine with unknown long-term side effects would not have happened.

The Editor says...
I'm willing to forgive the elected and appointed government officials and bureaucrats who eagerly used Covid as an excuse to exert unwarranted power over the rest of us, just to see if they could get away with it — provided that all those elected officials, judges, lying "journalists," and pencil-pushing bureaucrats are all brought to justice, permanently stripped of their power and government paychecks, and if appropriate, sent to prison.

Was the Pandemic Caused by a Leaked Bioweapon or a Mishap in the Vaccine Race?  The devastation wreaked by the Covid-19 virus on human life and the world economy — especially the way it made doomsday scenarios of contagion all too real — has made ordinary people anxious to know its origin.  Shockingly, there is enough evidence and reason to suspect that the pandemic might have been the result of a vaccine arms race that skirted dangerously close to bioweapons development.  And that a leak from a lab in Wuhan, China — inadvertent or, well, by design — may have been responsible for the pandemic.  The behind-the-scenes players were the U.S. government, Big Pharma, and China — which in essence means the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).  This is no fuzzy conspiracy theory.  But it's a complex story and calls for careful unraveling.

Boris's Salvo of Freedom:  Johnson Cancels the Pandemic in England.  Last week Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, walked into the British Parliament and made the most consequential statement by a political leader since the fall of the Berlin Wall. [...] Boris Johnson decided to cancel the pandemic in England... just like that with a few words.  The British Prime Minister ended his nation's oppressive dystopian nightmare with a few sentences.  It is crucial that we grasp the immense significance of Johnson's simple act.  While Covid runs seemingly wild and other countries are taking increasingly repressive measures against their populations — Austria, for example, intends to fine and jail those who refuse the Covid jabs — Johnson dared to cancel the "pandemic" just when it reached its peak.  By his act, Boris Johnson laid bare the insidiousness of the world's totalitarians and exposed the global ruling elite's response to the so-called Covid pandemic for the gargantuan fraud that it is.  By no longer requiring Britons to hide at home, Johnson admitted that the lockdowns were a scam.  By no longer requiring British population to wear face diapers, Johnson admitted that masks were a scam.  By no longer requiring Covid passes, Johnson admitted that the vaccines were a scam (despite his lip service to it).  Even though all this has been obvious for many months now, the totalitarian globalists did their best to promptly silence and ruin anyone who would in any way dare to intimate the truth.

Unmask America.  Enough is enough.  It is time to stop wearing masks, or at the very least to eliminate mask mandates in all settings.  This is especially urgent for children in schools and universities, who suffer the effects of masks for long hours each day despite being at exceedingly low risk for death or serious illness from covid.  We have a responsibility, once and for all, to reject the ludicrous, ever-shifting narratives underpinning masks as effective impediments to the spread of covid infections.  The story changed from "masks don't work," to "masks may work," to "masks work and you must wear one."  Now the narrative switches yet again:  "cloth masks don't work, so you should wear a surgical or 'well-fitted' mask," or even wear two!  Note that even as covid evolves into a less dangerous omicron variant, we are supposed to increase the hysteria level by wearing masks intended for surgeons maintaining a sterile environment over open wounds.

The Emergency Must Be Ended, Now.  The time has come to terminate the pandemic state of emergency.  It's time to end the controls, the closures, the restrictions, the plexiglass, the stickers, the exhortations, the panic-mongering, the distancing announcements, the ubiquitous commercials, the forced masking, the vaccine mandates.  We don't mean that the virus is gone — Omicron is still spreading wildly, and the virus may circulate forever.  But with a normal focus on protecting the vulnerable, we can treat the virus as a medical rather than a social matter and manage it in ordinary ways.  A declared emergency needs continuous justification, and that's now lacking.  Over the last six weeks in the United States, the Delta variant strain — the most recent aggressive version of the infection — has according to the CDC been declining in both the proportion of infections (60 percent on Dec. 18 to 0.5 percent on Jan. 15) and the number of daily infected people (95,000 to 2,100).  During the next two weeks, Delta will decline to the point that it essentially disappears like the strains before it.

Australia Radically Changes COVID Policy As Omicron Sweeps Through Nation.  [Scroll down]  'Australia has fallen' still manages to make it into the trending topics on social media, with various clips showing how this nation has descended rapidly into authoritarianism to contain COVID.  Number one-ranked tennis star Novak Djokovic was deported when he showed up to potentially win his 10th Australian Open.  If you didn't know any better, you'd thought this man had committed serial murders while in the land down under.  The Atlantic's Conor Friedersdorf penned a piece that certainly got under many Aussies' skins where he asked if we could even consider Australia a western democracy anymore given the stringent travel policy that mirrored that of North Korea than a representative government.  With Omicron now sweeping through the country, as it's doing everywhere else, the government isn't locking down.  They're allowing it to burn through.  The new approach is the "let it rip" protocol.  Given that Omicron is mild and the population is highly vaccinated, the outcomes aren't as devastating pre-vaccine.  That's the logic.

Professional Leftists Begin Trying to Retreat from the Consequences of Their COVID Nonsense.  The professional political leftists are starting to rebrand themselves as having fallen victim to the "bureaucracy of COVID", and according to those high-minded people who think very highly of themselves, we are supposed to embrace this new enlightenment from the same people who were demanding our acquiescence to their dictates. [...] For two years they shoved their intolerant fingers in our faces, destroyed lives and livelihoods, made ridiculous demands in order to sustain their own fear, threatened our children, destroyed the economy, used COVID as an excuse to destroy families and steal an election, attempted to force us to kneel at the altar of their mask wearing and never-ending vaccine [stuff] and we're just supposed to what, forgive them?  Fat chance.  That sound you heard was millions of us locking the door, turning around to face them, and now the reckoning is about to begin.

What convinced you containment was a scam?  I caught Corona very early, along with a lot of people I know.  I was extremely sick with a very high fever for four days, but never hospitalised or anything like that.  After the acute symptoms passed, it took me about three weeks to fully recover, at which point Germany had locked down.  I'll admit that I found the panic propaganda convincing at first.  I was never personally worried about infection — I assumed I was immune — though I did find the prospect of mass mortality and social chaos concerning.  In retrospect, the propaganda worked above all by presenting the threat of Corona stripped of all context.  What kind of social or political threat had past pandemics proven to be?  (Answer:  Not much of one.)  How dangerous is SARS-2 really, compared to other viruses?  (Answer:  It's no more dangerous than pandemic influenza, with which we've had abundant experience.)  What precautions had been taken in the face of past pandemics?  (Answer:  Not many.)  What kinds of countermeasures had our governments planned, and why?  (Answer:  Definitely not lockdowns, because they have no real chance of working.)  These are all questions that went studiously ignored, but their import wasn't obvious to me at the time.

Thousands of anti-vaccine mandate protesters descend on DC and ignore city's outdoor mask rules.  Thousands gathered in Washington D.C. — a city that mandates vaccines — for a 'Defeat the Mandates' protest, with protesters blaring ballads by Meat Loaf, a musician who is feared to have succumbed to COVID-19 complications at 74 after vocal hesitation about the jab.  Robert F. Kennedy and Informed Consent Action Network founder Del Bigtree were among big names who addressed the rally Sunday morning.  Around 20,000 people were expected to attend the demonstration. 'Americans want democracy back, and this rally is a demand by Americans to get their democracy back,' Kennedy said of the rally, according to WUSA9.

Los Angeles school district to require students to wear 'non-cloth masks with a nose wire'.  Students in Los Angeles public schools will be required to wear "well-fitting, non-cloth masks with a nose-wire" and staff will be required to wear surgical-grade masks beginning Monday under the school district's latest round of pandemic protocols.  The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) on Friday updated its coronavirus guidelines, which are posted on its website, to essentially ban cloth masks.  "Masking will be required at all times, indoors and outdoors.  It is required that all students wear well-fitting, non-cloth masks with a nose wire.  All employees are required to wear surgical grade masks or higher," the updated guidance said.

Alberta Canada Inadvertently Published (and Quickly Deleted) Health Data Exposing that More Than Half of Vaccinated Deaths Have Been Counted As Unvaccinated.  [Scroll down]  According to its latest Covid-19 update, the Alberta Government admitted to following the fraudulent standard that was in use by vaccine manufacturers during clinical trials — which is to ignore the adverse outcomes, including Covid infection, hospitalizations, and deaths, for fourteen days after vaccine administration — no matter how many doses they have had.  But instead of just ignoring the cases like the vaccine manufacturers, the corrupt Alberta government has been lumping them in with the unvaxxed.  In other words, anyone who was infected — was hospitalized — or even died, in the two weeks following their first, second, or even THIRD dose would be recorded as an unvaccinated case.

I am done with masks.  We've been idiotic about them since the beginning.  Who knew that little pieces of plastic or cloth worn over the nose and mouth could turn people into complete idiots?  Masks have led us astray since the first days of the COVID-19 pandemic.  As with many ideas and trends during COVID, Dr. Anthony Fauci was a leader.  When the new coronavirus first began to spread in the USA, he argued that the general public shouldn't wear masks.  "Typical mask(s)," he wrote, are "not really effective in keeping out virus."  But that wasn't what he really thought.  He instead was worried that a rush from the public to buy masks would strip them from medical professionals who were treating COVID patients.  The idiotic part is that no resource, not even masks, is more vital to public health than the credibility of leaders who during a crisis need to ask people to do unpopular or uncomfortable things like get vaccinations that were fast-tracked through the review process.  Fauci lost plenty of his credibility before COVID-19 was officially a pandemic.

How Phony Coronavirus "Fear Videos" Were Used as Psychological Weapons to Bring America to Her Knees.  If you were online during January 2020 you likely saw the barrage of video clips that were supposedly coming out of China depicting ghastly "Coronavirus" scenes.  Most of those videos have been quietly wiped off the internet, but back in January and February those grisly videos were a viral sensation and they scared the sense out of Americans.  The videos captured supposed Coronavirus victims in various stages of pandemic horror.  Some showed people foaming at the mouth and collapsing in the streets, while others featured ominous government officials wearing Hazmat suits, hovering over lifeless bodies struck down from the virus.  It was a virtual buffet of fear-porn, and Americans couldn't get enough of it.

When Authorities Use COVID-19 to Violate Rights.  In light of the Supreme Court's decision to block the vaccine mandate for private employers, the government action reported by Sarah Parshall Perry and GianCarlo Canaparo is completely nonsensical and should raise everyone's ire.  It has become painfully clear that the federal government's COVID-19 vaccine mandate is unconstitutional, yet the Biden administration says to ignore the Supreme Court and is moving forward with collecting the names of religious objectors?  We are now in a police state and this does not hold water.

50,000 Protesters Lose It In Brussels, Attack Police.  Police fired water cannons and thick clouds of tear gas Sunday in Brussels to disperse people protesting COVID-19 vaccinations and government restrictions that aim to curb the fast-spreading omicron variant.  Police said the protest in the Belgian capital drew an estimated 50,000 people, some traveling from France, Germany and other countries to take part.  [Video clip]

The Importance Of The German Protests.  If you listen to MSM late night news you'll know that there are massive anti-Covid Regime protests taking place in Europe, including in the very heart of the EU and the New World Order: [...] The importance of these protests goes beyond the obvious importance of Germany in the world economy — it's the economic engine of the EU.  What matters more is that the new German government is widely seen as being a subsidiary of the World Economic Forum (WEF). [...] The WEF is unlikely to back down from its crusade to use Covid to institute the Great Reset — not in Germany.  As long as the WEF controls the German government, they will likely keep pushing for full implementation of Build Back Better in Europe.  The good news — for now — is that a type of populism is coalescing in country after country.  In addition, Davos' German branch regime has been beset by missteps from the start.  It's a story that bears watching because much depends on how Germany goes.

Virginia Dems Block Ivermectin, HCQ Treatments for COVID Patients, Order Capitol Police to Throw Citizens Out.  Virginia State Senate Democrats blocked a bill on Thursday that would have allowed healthcare providers to prescribe Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine to COVID patients, shutting down a public comment session and ordering Virginia Capitol Police officers to throw citizens out of the room.  The move came as members of the Senate Education and Health Committee took up Senate Bill 73, introduced by conservative Senator Amanda Chase.  The bill would have allowed licensed healthcare providers with prescriptive authority to prescribe Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine to patients suffering from COVID-19.

There's disturbing vaccine data coming from Scotland.  The vaccines are proving to be a constantly moving target.  Two shots will save us.  No, three will.  No, better make it four.  Heck, let's just keep it open-ended but you better get shots if you want to work, shop, eat out, go to a concert, maybe even board a plane.  But what happens to this manic shot regime when we're beginning to get data showing that, not only do the shots not prevent people from getting COVID (which is the traditional effect of a vaccine) but that they may actually leave people more vulnerable to COVID?  Israel, which was so terrified of having COVID shut it down, thereby leaving it vulnerable to the genocidal organizations and nations around it, embarked upon the most aggressive vaccination program in the world.  Now, it's the nation with the world's highest per capita COVID rate, per a weekend report.

Lockdowns, Masks, and Vaccines Have All Been Complete Failures, But That's Not the Real Problem.  There's never been any convincing evidence that wearing a loose-fitting rag over your face stops viral spread, but if that doesn't give one pause to question the efficacy of the practice, then there's always the incontrovertible fact that there isn't a single place on the planet which can be pointed toward as the beacon of evidence for the efficacy of mask mandates.  Regarding the insanity of mass masking, Ian Miller continues doing the yeoman's work of using government-collected data to produce very convincing arguments that the cloth masks and mandates are useless, in both easily digestible graphics and prose, on his Substack and Twitter account — both of which I recommend.  You won't be shocked to learn that the media has, thus far, been uninterested in reporting any of it.  Those who brought us the six-foot distancing standard have openly admitted that they invented it without any real scientific premise — it just sounded good, and they thought it was something people could easily follow.

New CDC report admits natural immunity was stronger than vaccination during Delta wave.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has finally acknowledged a point that COVID dissenters have been making since at least the creation of the first coronavirus vaccine:  Natural immunity counts.  A study published by the Biden CDC on Monday [1/17/2022] found that "persons with vaccine- and infection-derived immunity," the latter of which is the agency's term for natural immunity, "had much lower rates of hospitalization compared with those in unvaccinated persons" during the study period.

Anne Quiner's Husband Dies in Texas Hospital After Legal Fight to Get Him Transferred.  Anne Quiner's husband Scott died in an undisclosed Texas hospital on Jan. 22 after Anne sought legal counsel to have him transferred out of Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids, Minnesota, where doctors planned to take Scott off life support.  "We got him too late in the process," Quiner's lawyer, Marjorie Holsten, told The Epoch Times.  "We should have gotten him sooner.  He was malnourished, dehydrated, and 30 pounds underweight."  Holsten said that doctors in Texas reported that they were shocked by Scott's depleted condition when he finally arrived.  Doctors at Mercy Hospital told Quiner they were taking Scott off his ventilator because they believed he would not recover due to what they said were his "destroyed lungs from COVID pneumonia," and that their attempts at decreasing sedation only caused him pain.

Six Organizations Continuing With COVID Vaccine Mandates Despite SCOTUS Ruling.  Despite the Supreme Court ruling, United Airlines insists on maintaining its vaccine mandate policy because, as its CEO said last week, it saves lives.  Citing evidence that the company lost one person per week to Covid before implementing the freedom-crushing move.  Apparently not a single one has died since then.  I guess we just have to take his word on it.  It is certainly curious how these conversations are limited in scope.  Did he say what types of employees were dying?  Did he think Omicron still posed a threat?  Did he ever feel the need to outlaw diabetes or obesity from his workforce?  Does he intend to mandate indefinite boosters?  Does he know how many staff have been grounded permanently due to vaccine side effects?  As always, the Covidian religion only focuses on the single issue of vaccination or not.

French MP Who Pushed For Banning Unvaccinated From Public Spaces Gets Surrounded By Protesters, Punched In The Face.  MP Romain Grau was violently attacked by protesters against the health pass in Perpignan this Saturday.  He claims in particular to have received a punch in the chin.  LREM deputy Romain Grau, as well as a parliamentary adviser to the Minister of Justice and one of the parliamentarian's neighbors, were "violently" attacked on Saturday in Perpignan by demonstrators against the health pass who "attacked" his office.  [Video clip]

The UVA medical center gives an unvaccinated man a possible death sentence.  Shamgar Connors, a Virginia resident, has Stage 5 kidney failure and has been on the transplant waiting list at the University of Virginia's Transplant Center for two years.  However, he's been told he's no longer eligible for a transplant because he hasn't been vaccinated.  Although the Center's rule does not comport with developing science, it certainly reflects the dominant attitude in America's medical centers.  There are a lot of facts that need to be woven together to fully understand what's happening to Shamgar.  I'll start with more general facts and then work my way to specific ones:
One:   For someone with Stage 5 kidney failure, the choices are limited:  dialysis, which cannot maintain the kidneys forever, or a kidney transplant, which gives the patient a new lease on life.  Taking someone off the kidney transplant list is tantamount to imposing a death sentence on them.
Two:   The CDC has finally conceded that naturally acquired immunity offered stronger protection against the Delta variant than the vaccines did.
Three:   There's evidence out of the UK that, when it comes to the Omicron variant, the vaccines actually make people more, not less, vulnerable to ending up in the hospital.
Four:   The CDC has conceded that immunity is no longer a possibility with the vaccine.  Instead, there's now a constantly moving target that will be defined only as "being up to date."

The CDC Officially Moves the Goalposts on COVID-19 Vaccination.  CDC Dir.  Rochelle Walensky appeared on CBS News and shared the news that the two-dose regiment will no longer suffice to be considered "fully vaccinated." Instead, you will need a booster jab in order to be classified as "up to date."  That comes as part of a "pivot" in language by the government, one that many were maligned for predicting.  [Tweet]  I could have just headlined this story "Ron DeSantis was right again," but I figured that gets a bit repetitive after a while.  The Florida governor, just a few months ago, predicted the government would make this shift.  In response, the media trashed him for supposedly spreading misinformation.  Well, who's spreading misinformation now?

At this point in the season, there's too much money at stake to let Covid get in the way.
NFL ends daily COVID-19 testing for all players.  The NFL is curtailing daily testing of all players, vaccinated or unvaccinated, for COVID-19.  In a memo sent to the 32 clubs and obtained by The Associated Press, the league said Friday that medical experts from the NFL and the players' union agreed to the change.  Those doctors have seen enough evidence of a decrease in positive tests in the last month to feel comfortable with dropping daily tests.

Bari Weiss tells Bill Maher that COVID restrictions and closure of schools will be seen as a 'moral crime' by younger generations.  Journalist and author Bari Weiss blasted school closures and restrictions brought on during the pandemic as a 'catastrophic moral crime' and said that life must return to normal.  Speaking on Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday night, the Substack journalist declared that she is 'done with covid!'  'We were told you get the vaccine, you get the vaccine and you get back to normal.  And we haven't gotten back to normal.  And it's ridiculous at this point,' Weiss began on the HBO show.  'I know that so many of my liberal and progressive friends are with me on this and they do not want to say it out loud because they are scared to be called anti-vaxxed or to be called science deniers or to be smeared as a Trumper,' Weiss explained.

This Cheap, Effective, Patent-Free COVID Vaccine Could Be a Global Game-Changer.  The world now has a new COVID-19 vaccine in its arsenal, and at a fraction of the cost per dose.  Two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, the world has seen over 314 million infections and over 5.5 million deaths worldwide.  Approximately 60 percent of the world population has received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.  But there is still a glaring and alarming gap in global access to these vaccines.  As a virologist who has followed this pandemic closely, I contend that this vaccine inequity should be of grave concern to everyone.  If the world has learned anything from this pandemic, it's that viruses do not need a passport.  And yet approximately 72 percent of vaccine doses were administered in high- and upper-middle-income countries — and only 1 percent in low-income countries.  Wealthy countries are giving boosters, and even fourth doses, while first and second doses are not available to many worldwide.

Prestigious French doctor: 'The pandemic has disappeared in nations that DID NOT vaccinate'.  Professor Christian Perronne is a French doctor and university professor-hospital practitioner[.]  University professor-hospital practitioner (PU-PH) is a status in the French state civil service which includes doctors, odontologists, pharmacists and scientists belonging to both a university and a university hospital center (CHU) appointed to permanent title. [...] In December 2021, Prof Christian Perronne participated in a "doctothon", which brings together "doctors known for their positions contrary to the scientific community[.]"  [H]e feels that the epidemic has practically disappeared in the countries which have not vaccinated their population[.]

Poll: Majority of Independents Say Anthony Fauci Must Resign.  A majority of independents believe Dr. Anthony Fauci must resign, a Trafalgar Group poll revealed on Thursday [1/20/2022].  Fifty-eight percent of independents said Fauci should leave his position as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.  Forty-one percent of independents said Fauci should not resign.

CDC Director States Change to Definition of Fully Vaccinated Likely to Change Soon, Must Be Boosted.  The White House COVID manipulation team held a presser today [Full Video Here] highlighting the current situation with COVID-19 and their political perspectives on the Omicron variant.  Within the discussion, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky noted the CDC is about to change the definition of "fully vaccinated" to include a mandated booster shot.  [Video clip]

CDC plans to 'pivot the language' on vaccination, Walensky says.  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said during a Friday briefing that the agency is working to "pivot" its language regarding what it means to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.  Responding to a question about why the CDC is not changing the definition of the phrase to include a booster dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, the health leader told reporters that it is working to "pivot the language to make sure that everybody is as up to date with their COVID-19 vaccines as they personally could be, should be, based on when they got their last vaccine."

Triple-Jabbed Adele Cancels Her Vegas Shows After She And Her Triple-Jabbed Crew Catch COVID.  A tearful Adele has axed her entire 24-date Caesars Palace residency at the 11th hour claiming half her team has Covid and they 'ran out of time' for the show to be ready.  Fans paying between $85 and $12,000 for a ticket — or up to $30,000 on the black market — had already travelled to Las Vegas from all over the world including the UK for the opening gig tonight.  But with just 24 hours to go the British star, 33, cancelled her entire 24-night run, which was due to make her $685,000 (£500,000) per performance before merchandising — a Vegas record.  The singer caused a row when she was forced to cancel her final tour dates at Wembley Stadium in London at the last minute after damaging her vocal cords.  It then took more than four years to reaarange them.  [Video clip]

Poll reveals many Democrats wish to repeal natural law, imprison fellow citizens.  A poll conducted jointly by the Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports surveyed 1,016 "likely voters" in the United States on January 5.  The poll revealed...that a large percentage of Democrat voters would have made excellent Germans circa the 1930s and 1940s.  Specifically, it revealed that 59% of likely Democratic voters want the government to enact a policy mandating that unvaccinated Americans be confined to their homes at all times, except for emergencies.  (Conversely, 79% of Republicans and 71% of unaffiliated voters oppose such draconian punitive measures.)  Moreover, 45% of Democrats called for the government to round up citizens who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 and force them into "designated facilities."  (These same people, I'm certain, are — or would be — appalled at FDR rounding up Japanese-Americans and placing them in "designated facilities" during World War II.)  An even higher percentage of voters who have a "very favorable" opinion of President Biden were in favor of putting unvaccinated Americans into COVID camps.

NYC hospitals overrun with bodies during COVID death surge, staffing shortages.  A recent surge in fatalities combined with staffing shortages due to Omicron have created a backlog at the city Medical Examiner's office that is having a ripple effect at local hospitals, The [New York] Post has learned.  Hospitals are scrambling to cope with the recent surge in COVID-19 fatalities across the city — with some shifting their dead patients between facilities as the ME's office has been overrun, sources said.  "The whole hospital system is at capacity with patients and, of course, that includes the morgues," one person familiar with the situation said.  A source at NYC Health + Hospitals, which operates the city's public health care system, said, "We have so far been able to manage deaths by moving them from one hospital to another and getting additional storage units."

Fraudsters cash in as Dems shovel out billions and billions in COVID relief.  If a few billion dollars get carted off by bandits, or chewed into confetti by squirrels, or blown into the nearest river, after a brief chastened look, the Democrats always come back with:  "Hey, we think we have a new solution:  Spend more money again!"  Their latest idea is to upchuck $1.9 trillion (not $2 trillion — they're not crazy or anything) on yet another COVID relief package.  They've already appropriated some $6 trillion in fighting COVID, though.  That's more than we spent fighting WWII, which cost about $4.1 trillion in inflation-adjusted dollars.  Unlike in the '40s, though, we've pretty clearly lost World War C.  COVID has killed way more people than Hitler and Hirohito did, and unlike the Third Reich, it's never going to go away.  So while we're getting used to the Forever Virus, we might as well pause for a sec and wonder:  What [...] did all that spending buy us?  So far, $100 billion of it has been straight-up stolen, "resulting in the arrest of more than 100 suspects who span the spectrum from individuals to organized groups," according to a CNBC report.  Don't worry, though, the feds are on the case, and so far they've recovered ... $2.3 billion.

It's OK to Be Racist If You're the Left Pushing COVID-19 Mandates.  Following the lead of other leftist-run cities, the District of Columbia just instituted a new COVID-19 mandate that requires anyone who wants to dine at a restaurant, go to a movie, or workout at a gym to show proof of vaccination.  But a big part of the story that many in the media seem to ignore is that in this majority-black city, run by a black mayor, the D.C. government is also requiring people to show a photo ID to prove that they are the actual owner of the vaccination card they present.  Hold on a minute!  Wasn't it just a few short months ago — as the battles over election reform raged in the states — that we were told requiring photo ID to vote was racist and discriminatory because black folks couldn't get IDs?  In fact, it was considered so racist that businesses, sports teams, and celebrities boycotted entire states.  Now, by the left's own definition, the District of Columbia just instituted a whole new level of systemic racism.  And it's certainly affecting the black population — the District's largest racial group — disproportionately.

New Emails Reveal Fauci's Role in Shaping Highly Influential Paper That Established COVID 'Natural Origin' Narrative.  New evidence has emerged that suggests that Dr. Anthony Fauci not only initiated efforts to cover up evidence pointing to a lab origin of SARS-CoV-2 but actively shaped a highly influential academic paper that excluded the possibility of a lab leak.  Fauci's involvement with the paper wasn't acknowledged by the authors, as it should have been under prevailing academic standards.  Neither was it acknowledged by Fauci himself, who denied having communicated with the authors when asked directly while testifying before Congress last week.  The article, Proximal Origin, was co-authored by five virologists, four of whom participated in a Feb. 1, 2020, teleconference that was hastily convened by Fauci, who serves as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), and Jeremy Farrar, who heads the UK-based Wellcome Trust, after public reporting of a potential link between the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China and the COVID-19 outbreak.

The Top 10 COVID Villains of 2021.  [#1] Anthony Fauci.  The linchpin of the entire COVID-19 disaster, Lil' Tony makes Dr. Strangelove seem like Marcus Welby, M.D. Fauci has been a central antagonist at every step of this global catastrophe, from funding its origins in Wuhan to the allowance of its worldwide spread to the systematic suppression of existing treatments to all the repressive policies to the takeover of the medical profession by Big Vax to the effective revocation of the Bill of Rights by the Deep State.  But don't take our word for it.  Read RFK Jr.'s The Real Anthony Fauci, and ask yourself this question: what fate does this individual deserve if just one tenth of that book is true?  In our humble opinion, Fauci will be remembered as the greatest criminal against humanity since Pol Pot, and the most notorious traitor in the U.S. federal government since Alger Hiss.

The Corruption of Science by Money and Marxism.  The increasing centralization of the medical industry has resulted in certain drugs being blacklisted for the treatment of COVID.  The drugs ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, and certain other drugs are widely recognized as being effective therapeutics for prevention and treatment of COVID.  These drugs have been used with great results in many countries.  A case can be made that hundreds of thousands of Americans died unnecessarily as a consequence of the blacklist.  Increasingly doctors are employed by large organizations effectively controlled by federal bureaucracy.  They risk being fired or having their licenses revoked if they try to save the lives of patients by prescribing the blacklisted drugs.  The federal bureaucracy is motivated by a desire to enlarge its authority and budget as well as promoting the political interests of the administration.  Those interests take priority over saving lives.  Science is subordinated to politics.

You only thought you were vaccinated.  For many months, conservatives have been predicting that the CDC will redefine what it means to be vaccinated.  In the distant past — that is, more than two years ago — being vaccinated meant you'd had an injection that left you forever immune to a disease.  This became problematic when the COVID vaccines did not leave people immune to the disease.  Now there are boosters, so the CDC has announced that you're not vaccinated unless you've also had your booster. [...] And, as invariably turns out to be the case when it comes to all things COVID, conservatives were correct.  On Friday, Rochelle Walensky announced that there really isn't such a thing as "fully vaccinated" (tell that to all the people who didn't get polio or smallpox after they got that one shot).  Instead, people will be considered "up to date" — and you'll need the third shot for the current version of "up to date."

Wife Stands Off With Hospital to Keep Her Husband Alive, and Wins.  Sentiments expressed in random phone calls for Anne Quiner as her husband Scott lay in a hospital bed breathing through a ventilator ranged from "I hope your husband dies a vegetable" followed by a litter of profanity, to "he should have taken the vaccine; I hope he dies," before hanging up.  While not the traditional Hallmark expressions for one to get well soon, Quiner said it was a feeling shared among some of the doctors at Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids, Minnesota, where Scott had been hospitalized for COVID-19 complications in November.  In one recorded phone call with Dr. Linda Soucie in which Quiner was fighting to keep Scott on the ventilator, Soucie told Quiner, "Unfortunately, if we could turn back time and he had gotten the vaccine, then he wouldn't be here," just after Soucie had told Quiner, "After three years, I think we've gotten pretty good at determining who's going to make it and who's not, and unfortunately Scott's in that range of the group that is not going to make it."

The Grift Is Over.  It's the beginning of the end.  The lockdown narrative is crumbling.  We were right, and they were on the wrong side of history.  [Video clip]

Austrian Parliament Votes Overwhelmingly to Introduce Mandatory Vaccination for All Adults.  In a vote of 137 to just 33, the Austrian parliament has overwhelmingly voted to make vaccination against the Wuhan coronavirus mandatory for all residents over the age of 18.  The Austrian parliament voted to approve the new mandatory vaccination policity on Thursday night, which will include all adults over the age of 18 who have their primary or secondary residency in the country.  Austrians who have taken one or two doses most of the Wuhan coronavirus vaccines, except for the Chinese Sinovac or the Russian Spunik V vaccines, will be considered fully vaccinated but those who refuse to take the vaccine could face a fine of up to €3,600 (£2,994/$4,072), newspaper Kronen Zeitung reports.

9-Year-Old Disabled Boy Forced to Take Exam Outside in Freezing Weather Because He Didn't Wear a Mask.  A 9-year-old disabled boy in Austria was forced to take an exam outside in freezing cold weather as punishment for not wearing a mask.  An investigation is now underway as to ascertain why the student in Voitsberg was treated in such a manner despite having a valid mask exemption.  A photo shows the boy, Jason, sat outside up against the window of the classroom in temperatures of -1 Celsius.  The boy's parents have hired a lawyer and are now considering moving their son to a different school.  Markus Leinfellner of the Freedom Party of Austria described the incident as an "odd class scandal" after he brought the case to the attention of the Austrian Ministry of Education.

Teacher Caught Taping a Mask to the Face of a Young Student.  A northern Pennsylvania school teacher was photographed taping a mask to a male student to force the child to comply with the school district's mask mandate.  The photograph appeared on the Facebook page of North Penn Stronger Together, a community group whose "mission is to bring parent & community concerns to NPSD (Northern Pennsylvania School District) leaders with respect and impact."  The North Penn School District confirmed that the picture is genuine.

A New CDC Study Found Natural Immunity Beat Vax Against Delta Variant.  After a few years of the left and Silicon Valley's big-tech companies punishing anyone who spoke out about Natural Immunity's effectiveness in stopping COVID infections, Isreal and the CDC are now reporting some findings which support these individuals after all.  Natural immunity better protects against the Delta strain of COVID-19 than a vaccine, according to a study released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Wednesday [1/19/2022].  Researchers examined COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations from May through November 2021 in California and New York.  The research team examined case and hospitalization rates among four cohorts of people: the unvaccinated and previously uninfected, the vaccinated and previously infected, the unvaccinated with a previous COVID-19 diagnosis, and the vaccinated with a previous COVID-19 diagnosis.  The study found that the natural immunity obtained through recovering from a bout of COVID-19 gave people a much greater degree of protection against the Delta strain of COVID-19 than receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.

Cloth masks [are] useless, experts say in omicron messaging shift.  Prominent public health officials have increasingly highlighted the limitations of cloth face masks, pushing for more effective respirator masks such as N95s as omicron engulfs the United States, a shift in messaging from earlier in the pandemic.  Officials encouraged the use of cloth masks in the spring of 2020 as a desperate measure to slow the spread of COVID-19 after previously recommending against masks and continued to boost them in the months after.  Now, though, more experts are saying that the masks are not helpful.  "Cloth and surgical masks do absolutely nothing for protection from ambient virus," said Chad Roy, a microbiologist at Tulane University School of Medicine, referring to the virus spreading through the air.

Virginia Man Dying of Kidney Failure [was] Removed from Donor List After 5 yrs because he's Unvaxxed.  A Virginia man with stage five kidney failure has been removed from the kidney transplant list he has been on for three years due to the fact that he has yet to receive the COVID-19 vaccination.  Shamgar Connors, of Stafford, Virginia, was reportedly told by the University of Virginia's Transplant Center that he is no longer eligible for a life saving kidney transplant because he has not received the COVID-19 vaccine.  [Video clip]

Howard Stern Wants Hospitals to Refuse Service to the Unvaxxed.  Watch how quickly Howard Stern slips up and admits that even people who get the vaxx die minutes after he says if he was in charge hospitals would refuse service to the unvaxxed.  'Go home and die' he says shortly after admitting the vaxxed are dying as well.  What Howard failed to mention is a growing number of countries around the world are waking up to the realization the vaccine isn't really a vaccine by definition, and that the world has been duped by big pharma into believing the vax would do a bunch of things we all now know it doesn't.  [Video clip]

The Mysterious Reappearance of the Flu, Natural vs Vaccine-Induced Immunity, [and] the Inability of the Vaccines to Control the Virus.  Colds and flus mysteriously disappeared over the past two years only to return recently in many countries, often with a vengeance.  While only rarely discussed and frequently dismissed as a mere curiosity, the mystery of the disappearing flu is actually one of the most important events of the past two years.  Unpacking this mystery provides deep insights into the future trajectory of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, exposes the abject failure of the vaccines to control the pandemic, and puts the final nail in the coffin on futile public health measures like masks and social distancing.

Djokovic and Wife Own 80 Percent Stake in Biotech Company Developing Non-Vaccine COVID-19 Treatment:  Report.  Tennis star Novak Djokovic and his wife own an 80 percent share in a Danish biotech firm developing a treatment for COVID-19 that does not involve vaccination, the company's boss said on Wednesday.  The Serbian native 34, and his wife Jelena, 35, bought a majority stake in QuantBioRes back in June 2020, just months into the pandemic, the company's chief executive Ivan Loncarevic confirmed to Reuters.  Loncarevic did not say how much the stake was worth but confirmed that Djokovic owns 40.8 percent while his wife owns 39.2 percent of the company.  Efforts to contact a Djokovic spokesperson for comment were unsuccessful.

Preventive Ivermectin: international scientific review confirms 68% efficacy in SUS study.  Over the weekend, after reviewing the data by three independent groups of scientists, the 68% efficacy of the preventive ivermectin against deaths caused by COVID-19 was confirmed.  The final results of the study were published in the prestigious scientific journal Cureus, based in San Francisco, USA, and with a chapter in Munich, Germany.  Cureus has two esteemed editors-in-chief in the scientific community:  Dr John Adler Jr, Professor of Neurosurgery and Radiation Oncology (Emeritus) at Stanford University in California, and Dr Alexander Muacevic, the medical director of the European Radiosurgery Center in Munich, Germany and a professor at the University of Munich Hospitals.

Federal Judge Plunges Rusty Dagger Into Biden's Vax Mandate Agenda.  President Joe Biden just can't seem to catch a break.  Only eight days after the Supreme Court set fire to the president's vaccine mandate requiring companies with more than 100 employees to force their workers to get vaxxed, a federal judge has ruled that he could not compel federal personnel to take the jab.

US Judge Blocks Biden Federal Employee COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate.  A federal judge in Texas issued a nationwide ruling Friday [1/21/2022] that President Joe Biden could not require federal employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19.  Biden issued an order requiring about 3.5 million workers to get vaccinated by Nov. 22 or seek a religious or medical accommodation or face discipline or firing.  U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Brown said in his Friday order that at issue was whether the president "can, with the stroke of a pen and without the input of Congress, require millions of federal employees to undergo a medical procedure as a condition of their employment."

Two-Thirds of Canadians Favour Mandatory Vax, Quarter Support Jailing Unvaxed.  Over a quarter of Canadians support putting unvaccinated people in jail for jab refusal, while two-thirds say they would support mandatory vaccinations for all residents over the age of five.  A poll released this week by the Canadian firm Maru Public Opinion claims that 27 percent of the Canadian public would support the government putting people in prison for a short time simply for being unvaccinated.  "A majority of Canadians have little sympathy for the unvaccinated," executive vice-president of Maru Public Opinion John Wright told Canadian newspaper the National Post.

Pregnant Woman Is Detained By Police For Not Wearing A Mask Around A Swimming Pool.  A pregnant woman and her husband were detained by police in Nanaimo, British Columbia recently for failing to comply with B.C.'s "Limitation Order #2", but more generically the infractions mentioned by police appeared to be for failing to wear a mask, provide identification and not having a vaccine passport.  [Video clip]

The Nazi Next Door.  Almost half of Democratic voters — 48 percent — think the government should be able to fine or imprison individuals "who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines on social media, television, radio, or in online or digital publications."  This is not the most astonishing finding of a poll just released by Rasmussen.  Let's go through the relevant points:  Nearly the same percentage of Democratic voters — 47 percent — think the government should be able to put a tracking system, like an ankle monitor or a locked collar, on people who refuse the vaccine.  And 45 percent favor putting the unvaccinated in camps.  Camps.  More than half of Democratic voters — 55 percent — think people who refuse the vaccine should be fined.  Fifty-nine percent favor confining all unvaccinated people to their homes.  More than a quarter of Democratic voters — 29 percent — think that the government should be able to confiscate the children of unvaccinated parents[.]  Is any of this Nazi enough for you yet?

25 Federal Agencies [are] Tracking Employees With Religious Exemption Requests.  At least 25 federal agencies have implemented a system to track religious exemption requests for mandated vaccines, according to a review of Federal Register notices by The Epoch Times.  The agencies include the departments of Justice, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation, the Treasury, the Social Security Administration, the Federal Election Commission.  The Heritage Foundation, a conservative group, earlier this week found that 19 agencies were either considering or have already implemented the tracking system.  The group warned that the system may be a test pilot plan to monitor all federal workers.

Why This Massive Push for Vaccinations?  If controlling human activity is the goal, and yes, the various climate change and global planet survival frauds are at the heart of this effort, which would include the long-term goal of removing anonymous online or digital activity, then a larger reset to register all persons would require a massive global movement and need some justification.  The pandemic provides that entry point.  The COVID passport becomes the digital ID. The virus provides the fear needed for a global vaccination program.  The mandatory vaccination program then provides the tool for registration of identity.  The registered identity then becomes the gateway for a digital identification... which, as outlined, is then used to register, monitor, track and ultimately control, a global population.  However, we enter a phase of hard-line non-compliance.  Meaning, if the worry of the virus itself begins to subside, if people start to realize the fear is disproportionate to the risk, if people start to reject the vaccination program because the never-ending contrived fear of variants lead to a never-ending booster shot program to continue the registration demand, then something else is needed in the equation to continue the registration drive.

If Omicron Creates Herd Immunity, Then What?  I received an interesting email from UCLA Health.  It contained an article exploring the possibility that the emergence of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 may mark the end of the pandemic phase of the disease in the beginning of what is called an endemic phase.  A pandemic is defined as a disease that is spreading exponentially out of control.  Each new case infects greater than one person causing the disease to spread into the population at faster and faster rates until it infects everyone. [...] The UCLA article observes that in late 2021, the emergence of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 fundamentally changed the dynamics of disease to the point that we are going to test the herd immunity theory regardless of what human hubris thinks about how much we can control it and flatten curves.

Omicron Evades mRNA Booster Protection, South African Study Shows.  The Omicron coronavirus variant is able to evade the protection gained from mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations such as the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, a South African study has found.  A study published on Jan. 18 in The Lancet examined some of the first documented breakthrough cases of the highly transmissible Omicron strain, which emerged in South Africa in late October 2021.  Between late November 2021 and early December 2021, a group of seven Germans who had received three vaccine doses, including at least two doses of an mRNA vaccine, visited Cape Town, South Africa, and subsequently experienced symptomatic COVID-19.  None of the individuals reported a history of COVID-19 infection.  COVID-19 is the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.

The Cult of Masked Schoolchildren.  As we enter the third year of the pandemic, every child age 5 and up is eligible to receive a COVID vaccine in the United States.  Oddly, this development has been accompanied by increased pressure on kids to wear masks in school.  Some private schools have gone beyond cloth-masking and mandated N95 (or equivalent) masks for children as young as 4.  The Berkeley Unified School District in California recently began transitioning students to N95-level masking.  This isn't a matter of protecting children, their teachers, or their grandparents; it's delusional and dangerous cultlike behavior.  The way to reduce scientific uncertainty when it comes to practices like masking young children is to conduct randomized studies.  When it comes to masking kids in schools, the global scientific community has launched no such studies during the pandemic.  The U.K. government recently commissioned a report on the efficacy of masks in school settings, which failed to identify any clear evidence in favor of this practice.

It was absurd we accepted lockdown.  People died alone, those who didn't live with relatives or housemates went for weeks and months without speaking to another human being face-to-face, pregnant women gave birth alone, but we made it, didn't we?  It was fine, we made banana bread, Zoom quizzes carried us through.  Or did they?  The fine people of Britain lived through one draconian lockdown, then another, then another, and they nearly managed to put it all behind them once restrictions loosened last summer.  What broke everything, in the end, was Whitehall's secret drinking culture.  In fairness to them, the story has it all: vivid details of broken swings and suitcases full of booze, new revelations coming out seemingly every hour, petty anonymous recriminations coming from all sides — it's a newspaper editor's dream.  Still, the groundswell of fury coming from every corner of the country has been fascinating to witness.

Researcher Calls Out Censorship After Journal Pulls COVID-19 Vaccine Adverse Events Analysis.  Jessica Rose didn't ask for any of this.  She started to analyze data on adverse reactions after COVID-19 vaccines simply as an exercise to master a new piece of software.  But she couldn't ignore what she saw and decided to publish the results of her analysis.  The next thing she knew, she was in a "bizzarro world," she told The Epoch Times.  A paper she co-authored based on her analysis was withdrawn by the academic journal Elsevier under circumstances that raised eyebrows among her colleagues.  The journal declined to comment on the matter.  Rose received her PhD in computational biology from the Bar-Ilan University in Israel.  After finishing her post-doctoral studies on molecular dynamics of certain proteins, she was looking for a new challenge.  Switching to a new statistical computing software, she was looking for an interesting data set to sharpen her skills on.  She picked the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), a database of reports of health problems that have occurred after a vaccination and may or may not have been caused by it.

Why the vaccines don't work.  A recent article introduced the term "negative efficacy" regarding COVID vaccines and implied that this reaction explains why more vaccinated than unvaccinated people are getting sick with COVID.  A non-Google search turned up several articles about negative efficacy that confirmed the claim with more details. [...] Let's face it.  The virus has reached the stage where it is now endemic and will be with us forever just like the related common cold and seasonal flu.  It's time for us to resume living our lives without the continual government fearmongering, virtue-signaling, and freedom robbing COVID mandates.

China's impossible COVID statistics.  As the latest wave of COVID cases surges in the West, all is quiet in the East.  It has always been quiet.  Millions have died from the coronavirus epidemic as it sweeps the world.  However, few consider it strange that the nation where the virus first appeared amid an entirely unprotected public of 1.3 billion people should record a mere 4,636 fatalities over the past three years.  China's statistics remain in the hands of officials who carefully do everything possible to make sure China's image remains unblemished.  They claim low numbers are due to the communist nation's brutal "zero tolerance" policies.  China is presented as a model for the West.  Some voices are appearing that dispute this claim.  One expert says that the fatality figures are likely closer to 1.7 million.  This figure would put China in the same camp as the rest of the world.

Little Brainwashed Monsters In Quebec Think The Police Should Take The Unvaxxed Away, Force Them To Vaccinated.  This dystopian moment on Quebec TV featured young children expressing their hatred for the unvaccinated to the point they desire calling the police on them to take them away from the vaccinated and having the government take everything away from them until they submit to the clot shots.  The equally evil audience and TV hosts applaud with glee.  [Video clip]

The authoritarians must be stopped.  Since time immemorial, The Left has been about one thing and one thing only: power.  To wit:  does anybody truly believe those that want to ostracize the unvaccinated, tax them, fine them, take away their livelihoods, and confine them to "camps" really wish to do so out of concern for the unvaccinated?  Or for anybody — or anything — else but their own power?  Is this why people in need of life-saving organ transplants are being sent away if they haven't acquiesced to the jab?  Is this why those that so loudly profess deep concern for their fellow man so often make comments about those with whom they disagree like, "let them die?"  Democrats and "progressives," and authoritarians of all stripes, have imposed their will on the rest of us for two years now, in the form of mask and vaccine mandates.  At times they have told us we can't go to work or leave our homes, have our family over for Christmas, attend church, go to weddings, visit dying relatives, or even allow more than a handful of people to grieve with us at their funerals.

Republicans push for greater access to COVID therapeutics.  Republicans are pushing for greater access to monoclonal antibody treatments for COVID-19 after the federal government took over the distribution of such drugs last year.  U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, filed Senate Bill 3440 to prohibit the federal government from limiting state access to monoclonal antibody treatments.  "One of the things we've learned during this pandemic is that monoclonal antibodies can have a very effective therapeutic effect in combatting COVID-19 infections," Cruz said in a statement.  "The Biden administration responded to these encouraging results by rationing and limiting the ability of people to access monoclonal antibodies and stopping states like my home state of Texas from ordering the treatments directly.  This federal takeover is an abuse of power that denies people lifesaving medication."

Board suspends doctor, orders neuropsych eval for COVID claims echoed by mainstream scientists.  Medical regulators in Maine have taken the nuclear option against a doctor for her COVID-19 views and treatment protocols, immediately suspending her license and ordering her to undergo a "neuropsychological evaluation."  While many of the "misinformation" statements attributed to Meryl Nass, originally a biowarfare researcher, are well outside the medical mainstream, others have been repeated by mainstream scientists and even the CDC.  Among the latter:  the risk of heart inflammation is higher after the second dose of a two-dose vaccine, COVID recovery provides "broad and very durable long-term immunity," and it "doesn't make scientific or medical sense" for everyone to be vaccinated.  The CDC's own guidance states that "some people should not get certain vaccines or should wait before getting them."

After COVID, Never Again.  Two years ago, how many people would have predicted that tennis's number one ranked player would be banned from competing in Australia and France for refusing to allow their governments to decide what is injected into his body?  How many people would have predicted the construction of internment camps to house citizens who similarly refuse to comply?  How many would have predicted that national leaders of "democratic" countries would demand censorship of dissenting points of view?  How many would have predicted that tech and media companies would eagerly jump at those calls for censorship by actively deleting from the public square any voices contrary to the official narratives sanctioned by those in power?  Whatever threat to human health the China Virus poses, it has been dwarfed by the threats to peace, stability, and freedom caused by two years of government tyranny run amok. [...] All of this leads to a [condemnatory] question:  why have so few people with power stood up during these last two years to call out this COVID-1984 madness for what it is — the greatest and most organized attack on human freedom in nearly a century?

New trucking vaccine mandate is likely to make fruit and vegetables more expensive.  New vaccine mandates for truck drivers are likely to increase the cost of produce.  The cost of transporting fruit from California and Arizona to Canada climbed 25% last week, the CEO of Canadawide Fruits, George Pitsikoulis, told Bloomberg on Monday [1/17/2022].  The Montreal-based executive pointed to a lack of truck drivers who are able to cross the border between the US and Canada due to a vaccine mandate that cuts US trucking capacity in half, according to data from the American Trucking Association.  The group estimates that only about 50% to 60% of US truck drivers have been fully vaccinated.  Stephen Laskowsi, president of the Canadian Trucking Alliance, told The Wall Street Journal that a survey of Canadian truckers suggested that over 10% of truckers in the country aren't vaccinated.

Another study to prove that which is obvious:
New research suggests COVID was less deadly than thought in first year of pandemic.  COVID-19 was less lethal across nearly every age group in its first full year than previously thought, according to an updated review of global research from Stanford University's Meta-Research Innovation Center (METRIC).  Between summer and Christmas 2021, METRIC's estimates of deaths from infection fell by half in multiple age groups, including young people, and less sharply in others.  The international estimates, which have not been peer-reviewed, are not substantially different from the CDC's own "best estimate" of COVID mortality in the U.S., last updated in March.  They use different age ranges, making exact comparisons difficult.  The findings raise questions about ongoing COVID restrictions and mandates, particularly for schoolchildren and college students, who remain at the lowest overall risk from infection.

A Referral You Cannot Refuse:  Death in Michigan's Nursing Homes.  Soon after Governor Andrew Cuomo mandated that nursing homes in New York accept patients with COVID, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer on April 15, 2020, followed suit with a very similar edict that had very similar results.  Michigan's Auditor General recently reported that the death toll for long-term care facilities (nursing homes) is 30% higher than the State had previously admitted.  I followed the progress of this order through a colleague whose clinical work involved consultations at nursing homes in southeast Michigan.  (He wishes to remain anonymous lest his observations jeopardize his employment[.])  He reported that facilities promptly responded to the order and the residents promptly started to die.

Boston Cops Threaten, Harrass the Wrong Woman Over Vax Card: 'We Don't Enforce Mandates, We Protect Rights'.  After the employee of a Boston pizzeria allowed five unvaccinated women and a girl to order food and bottles of water, the store manager intervened and called the police on the group for not presenting proof of Covid vaccination.  In footage recorded by the women and streamed on Facebook Live, the shop owner asks police to remove the group of females from his restaurant for failing to comply with Boston's newly implemented mandate requiring proof of vaccination to enter all indoor venues.

Maskedness is a new religion.  During the recent holidays, I accepted an invitation to attend a special Christmas service in the next county over in Southern California.  I knew ahead of time that the church putting on this service was broadly within the Evangelical tradition, and, as expected, the Christmas hymns were all familiar to me, as were the prayers and other expressions of Christian worship and praise.  What shocked me, however, is what I saw upon entering the church. [...] hat I was not prepared for in this church visit was the 100% mask use by the congregants.  It was the first thing that hit me as I entered, and it seemed surreal.  The only face that was seen, twice, was that of the pastor who welcomed everyone and explained the mask rule.  I was the only one needing the explanation; all the rest were obediently covered, noses down.  He did give his message unmasked, which I guess was wise because communication was probably high on his priorities list.

The Editor says...
Any church that requires face masks, elbow bumps, and six-foot spacing, is a church that doesn't believe in miraculous healing or divine protection, as depicted in the Bible;  In particular, Isaish 53:5.  At the very least, such a church has more faith in the government than in God.

Biden Officials Defy Critical Civil Rights Law.  In their latest mistake, Biden's Food and Drug Administration decreed federal taxpayer-supported hospitals must give preference to racial minorities when dispensing the limited amount of proven COVID treatments.  That Royal Decree affects 99% of the hospitals in America, because what hospital doesn't accept Medicare?  The problem for Biden is that this mandate is clearly illegal.  There is no doubt Monoclonal Antibodies are highly effective in fighting COVID.  They are not another vaccine.  Monoclonal Antibody infusions help COVID patients get well fast.  It doesn't matter if the patient was unvaccinated, had all his shots like a good puppy, or even had COVID previously.  Monoclonal Antibodies keep COVID patients out of the hospital and out of the morgue.  Unfortunately, like honest politicians in Washington, there are not nearly enough of these treatments to go around.  Long before Omicron ever emerged, the FDA should have accelerated the production of Monoclonal Antibodies and other effective treatments.

Government's COVID Tyranny Heralding a New Dark Age.  COVID has shown us how rigid a technocracy can be, even in a supposedly democratic society.  Consider the one-size-fits-all policy of President Biden, strongly supported by his leftist cult of maskers.  You must get multiple vaccinations, or else!  There is no science here, only totalitarian compulsion.  The problem with Biden's prescription is that not only does it not work medically, but it also has caused grave damage to our economy.  It is going to take many years to fully recover.  The policy has damaged our faith in the wisdom, ethics, and efficacy of the government.  This is Dark Age stuff.  It must not take permanent hold or American civilization, too, will collapse.

DOJ Calls Parents "Domestic Terrorists".  Research reveals that prolonged use of Covid masks, homemade or N95, can cause anywhere from five percent on up to 20 percent loss of oxygen, leading to hypercapnia (excessive carbon dioxide in the bloodstream typically caused by inadequate respiration), panic attacks, vertigo, double vision, tinnitus, concentration issues, headaches, slowed reactions, seizures, alterations in blood chemistry and suffocation due to air displacement.  We are killing our children!  Wake up America and get these things off your children's faces!  We cannot allow children to continually breathe in exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2).  Even National Institutes of Health (NIH), a stakeholder in this vile jab for Sars-coV-2, states this is dangerous to your health.  It can lead to a light-headed, dizzy, flustered feeling from repeatedly re-breathing back in your own already processed air.  Those are just the beginning warning signs of much more serious health problems.  According to Amesh A. Adalja, MD, and senior scholar at Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in Maryland, "wearing a mask day in and day out can lead to alterations in blood chemistry," and that leads to "changes in level of consciousness."

New West Charter School LA Caught Abusing Young Unvaccinated Girls.  Several young girls including four freshmen, one sophomore, and a junior were abused at their school New West Charter LA because they chose not to get the COVID vaccine.  The girls were denied chairs, forced to sit outside on the pavement behind warning tape, and were not allowed to use the school's restrooms.  School police are seen outside the warning tape guarding the area.  One little girl describes the abuse:  "I'm a student at New West Charter School and I'm here with five other girls.  Four of them are freshmen, one is a junior and I'm a sophomore.  And we are being threatened to be suspended because we don't have the COVID 19 vaccine.  And we're being refused of the right to attend school... And we're being closed off by this caution tape thing.  We're being segregated from the rest of the school."

Carhartt forges ahead with vaccine mandate despite Supreme Court ruling.  The Carhartt apparel company is the latest to find itself in the middle of the COVID-19 wars after an internal memo informed employees the company would forge ahead with its vaccine mandate despite a Supreme Court ruling striking down President Biden's testing requirement on unvaccinated workers.  In a letter that circulated online, CEO Mark Valade said workplace safety is key and the ruling "doesn't impact that core value."  It also said an unvaccinated workforce represents a risk the company is "unwilling to take."

School Closures Were a Catastrophic Error.  It is now indisputable, and almost undisputed, that the year and a quarter of virtual school imposed devastating consequences on the students who endured it.  Studies have found that virtual school left students nearly half a year behind pace, on average, with the learning loss falling disproportionately on low-income, Latino, and Black students.  Perhaps a million students functionally dropped out of school altogether.  The social isolation imposed on kids caused a mental health "state of emergency," according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.  The damage to a generation of children's social development and educational attainment, and particularly to the social mobility prospects of its most marginalized members, will be irrecoverable.  It is nearly as clear that these measures did little to contain the pandemic.  Children face little risk of adverse health effects from contracting COVID, and there's almost no evidence that towns that kept schools open had more community spread.

The system is set up for hospitals to profit from COVID.  If you had a financial incentive to do something that wasn't exactly honest, would you abandon your principles and take the cash?  Apparently, that's what many medical providers and hospitals in America have been doing, especially since the beginning of the Biden administration.  The numbers are staggering — both in money hospitals took in and the very real possibility that their actions caused people to die.  If the accusations are true, what happened is truly evil and, I think, points directly to a cause:  the removal of God and morality from society, replacing these brakes with what passes for modern life — disconnected, social media-driven, selfish, me-first living, with no real accountability.

The CDC Finally Makes a Massive Admission About COVID-19.  In an almost surreal way, writing about COVID-19 as a political commentator has become almost second nature.  Two years ago, I would have laughed at the idea that we'd still be covering the virus, but here we are, still having it be part of our daily conversation.  That's not by choice, of course.  Instead, it's because our leaders have insisted on tying the two areas of health and politics together so tightly.  When a pandemic is constantly used to crush liberties and hand power to people with tyrannical leanings, that's not a story that can be ignored.  In all the disinformation and obfuscation of the last several years from the government, though, no issue has been more abused than natural immunity.

Meet the woman launching multiple legal challenges to make America free from COVID tyranny.  Pam Popper is the president of Wellness Forum Health and cofounder of Make Americans Free Again, which plays a significant role in the fight to help preserve American freedoms.  An important part of that task is building a powerful community and, as noted by Popper, "COVID has brought some people together who probably should know each other better," and that includes us.  Popper and I are aligned with respect to our desire to educate the public about fundamental health principles, including foundational basics for preventing and treating COVID-19.  We are also in agreement that the COVID pandemic is a cover for something else entirely — a global takeover by powerful and profit-hungry interests.  And finally, we both agree that participating in protest marches and signing petitions doesn't really achieve much, and that there are far more effective strategies, as she has demonstrated.

Vaccine manufacturers, FDA not adequately warnings about myocarditis risks.  The FDA's VAERS database shows a long and impersonal number of deaths from heart conditions in young healthy people.  America has a list of over 700,000 reports of adverse events, but it's difficult to understand the humanity of large numbers of serious adverse events, especially cardiovascular adverse events, which many people do not realize were clearly warned about in the FDA medical review of the Pfizer application.  We don't always know the specific details about those who died, including their ages.  To give some perspective, I've compiled a list of seemingly healthy people who died or suddenly, devastatingly collapsed, as reported in the news just since December 1, 2021.  Most are young athletes in the prime of their careers.  The list is shamefully long and deeply depressing.

Michigan nursing home COVID deaths [were] underreported by 30% under Whitmer.  The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) under Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) underreported the number of people who died from COVID-19 in long-term care facilities by 30%, according to a report from the state's auditor general.  The report identified 8,061 COVID-linked deaths in long-term care (LTC) facilities, up from the 5,675 previously self-reported LTC deaths as of July 2, 2021.  The spread between the two figures is actually 42%, but the auditor's report spent several pages explaining why the state's responsibility for undercounting was 30%.  The report comes in response to a request from Republican state Rep. Steven Johnson.  It will likely become a point of contention during Gov. Whitmer's 2022 reelection campaign.

It's a miracle!  But it's New York, so maybe it's just a lie.
New York COVID cases down 75% in two weeks?  One week ago, Allahpundit dug into a report indicating that the Omicron wave in the northeast might be flattening out and fading much faster than the CDC had been predicting.  As of last night, that forecast is looking a lot more solid, at least in New York state.  While hospitalizations are still higher than they were at the start of the current "surge," health officials in New York City reported that there were nearly 1,000 less than was recorded one week earlier.  Over the entire state, new COVID cases dropped by a shocking 75% during the past two weeks.  This led Eric Adams, the new Mayor of Gotham, to take a victory lap during his first press conference, proclaiming that the city is "moving in the right direction." Governor Kathy Hochul was in a similarly celebratory mood, though it's unclear what actions by either of them had to do with these results.

Are masks really good for us?  So, what is happening behind the mask?  We breathe in stuff that makes it through the mask.  Some of it settles in our lungs.  Some of it leaves just as it arrived.  Some of it leaves our lungs attached to water vapor.  It arrives in the atmosphere between our face and the mask.  That's a warm and moist place.  Or, it lands on the inside of the mask, again a moist place.  More of the microscopic particles attached to water land on the inside of the mask.  We take another breath, inhaling more airborne virus, and expose it to a high moisture environment, creating more water-captured virus.  Over time, we are developing a warm, moist surface that might encourage the growth of the virus.  Are we raising our own crop of the virus that eventually succeeds in infecting us?

COVID boosters for omicron are not 'highly effective' and Americans are not 'highly protected'.  Remember when the White House and Dr. Anthony Fauci told us that, once we all took vaccines, we would all soon return to "normal"?  Well, that's not going to happen.  This virus will be with us for decades, just as the flu has persisted despite the availability of vaccines.  That is because any virus can mutate.  The combination of open borders from countries with poor public health, the relative complexity of COVID-19 compared to the flu, and the fact the viruses may mutate quickly mean it's almost impossible to make a vaccine fast enough to be effective.

Clarity of the Bigger Question, WHY This Massive Push for Vaccinations?  A guest on the Tucker Carlson show outlined the answer to this question which has been stated in these pages and a multitude of conversations for well over a year.  Why has there been this massive disproportionate push for vaccination against a virus which, all things considered, is NOT that deadly?  For two years, as we have watched the various governments around the world pushing the COVID-19 vaccination, many have asked this question?  The demand and effort is wildly disproportionate to the risk.  So why has this vaccination program been so severely pushed, including the mandates and requirements that everyone must follow in order to participate in society?  Why this scale of effort?  Tucker Carlson and Eva Vlaardingerbroek explained the motives and intents last night.  Yes, in essence, this is the quiet part being said out loud.

Covid:  Face mask rules and Covid passes to end in England.  England's Plan B measures are to end from next Thursday, with mandatory face coverings in public places and Covid passports both dropped, Boris Johnson has announced.  The prime minister also said the government would immediately drop its advice for people to work from home.  The PM said England was reverting to "Plan A" due to boosters and how people had followed Plan B measures.  He told MPs scientists believed the Omicron wave had peaked nationally.

Feds probe entrepreneur couple who cashed in on COVID testing boom — but 'didn't send customers their results'.  A serial entrepreneur couple who cashed in on the COVID testing boom are now at the center of a federal probe after being accused of fraud by customers who say they never received results or got negative test results via email before they had even taken the test.  Longtime entrepreneurs Akbar Ali Syed, 35, and his wife Aleya Siyaj, 29, of St. Charles, Illinois, have attached themselves to many trending business ventures over the years, including a donut shop, wedding photography and axe-throwing.  Their latest venture, the Center for COVID Control (CCC), is under scrutiny and being investigated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Oregon Department of Justice and multiple state health departments after numerous complaints from across the country, according to reports.

Gov. Youngkin Bans CRT, School Mask Mandates, And State Vaxx Coercion On Day One.  Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin took executive action to ban critical race theory (CRT) and mask mandates in Virginia schools, as well as prohibit vaccine mandates for state employees during his first day in office on Saturday.  The edicts came just hours after the Virginia Republican was officially sworn in as the state's 74th governor.  "We'll start where the future is determined in the classroom preparing Virginia's children to be career or college ready," he said during his inaugural address.  "We will remove politics from the classroom and re-focus on essential math, science, and reading.  And we will teach all of our history, the good and the bad."  "And we know that when our children don't go to school it harms their learning and development.  So let me be clear, we must keep our children in school five days a week," he added.

The left politicized COVID from the start.  From the moment COVID-19 appeared, the pandemic became inseparable from politics.  Political frenzy was inevitable since the SARS-CoV-2 virus may have escaped from a level-4-security virology lab in Wuhan, China.  The rapid-fire spread soon threatened to indict the Chinese Communist government for nearly destroying the world economy and killing millions.  Western elites, in response, feared that their own lucrative investments in China would be jeopardized by such disclosures — and so acted accordingly in defending Beijing.  Nonetheless, one scenario that remains intriguing is that the escaped virus was birthed by gain-of-function research scientists, overseen by elements of the Chinese Communist military.  Worse, the lab was given subsidies by US health authorities, routed through third parties.  Hiding all that damaging information warped government policy and media coverage.  Belatedly, a panicked China shut down all domestic travel in and out of Wuhan — but not flights abroad to Western Europe and the United States.

15 Worst Covid Lies That Have Been Completely Exposed for All the World to See.  [#3] Children exposed to ceaseless Covid hysteria will turn out fine:  It now seems that concerned parents in many states are beginning to discover that their virtue-signaling has exacted a steep price.  You can detect a sea change among parents, which is conveyed by the mainstream media.  "They will be paying for our generation's decisions the rest of their lives," Margaret Brennan said about 2021's "most underreported story."  Putting aside the fact that she is a journalist on a Sunday morning show, this is what parents have been trying in vain to get across to the 'experts' for two years.  The Surgeon General last month even issued a warning about the Covid pandemic response exacerbating the childhood mental health crisis.  The NY Times dutifully reported the news, which all normal Americans saw coming.  Masking children's and adults' faces during critical stages of children's social development will have serious long-term effects.  A study with over 25,000 school-aged children showed that masks are harming schoolchildren "physically, psychologically, and behaviorally," revealing 24 distinct health issues associated with wearing masks for hours each day.  The negative effects were found among 68% of children forced to wear a face covering for even just 4.5 hours per day.

The Political Timing of the End of the Pandemic.  With the abject failure — so far — of his massive wokedream spending package and the egregious attempt to federalize all elections, the Biden administration needs a very big win before November, and what could be simpler and easier than simply declaring one? [...] Laying the groundwork (or softening up the enemy, whichever is preferred) is underway; the prequel to official vanquishing of the virus has already begun.  It is not coincidental that the media — and even the CDC — has been recently noting there may actually be a difference between dying "with COVID" and "from COVID."  There has also been some movement on focusing on death rates instead of case rates, especially since Omicron tends not be much worse than the icky sniffles and the fact that triple-masked, restaurant scolding, self-quarantining, uber-vaccinated types are getting Omicron in large numbers and adding to the once all-telling, panic driving case count. [...] Which brings us back to the matter of timing — too soon and your message of "I freed you, now you must vote for me" may lose its impact by November; too late and the national angst may build even further and, crucially, you miss the primary season.  Of course, it would be handy to tie the announcement to some real or manufactured "good news" on the virus, but it's not strictly necessary — why bother to stop playing politics with COVID now?

COVID-19 Cases Plunge Across US.  COVID-19 case counts have dropped across the United States in recent days, stoking optimism that the Omicron-fueled wave is subsiding.  Thirty-four states have recorded a decrease in cases in recent days, not including states that reported a single-day drop, according to an Epoch Times analysis.  That includes some of the states that saw huge Omicron-fueled increases, including New York, California, and Florida.  Omicron is one of the newest variants of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes COVID-19.  Other states that have seen fewer cases recently include Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Louisiana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, and Pennsylvania.

Abandon your principles, all ye who enter here.  People are awakening to what our world, our country, my state, have mandated — the potential destruction of humanity by injection with a flawed, untested, and often lethal substance.  When the state willfully causes great bodily harm to the citizenry, as is becoming more and more evident, it becomes harder to cover it up.  When even the Pfizer CEO says the "vaccine" is useless, how can this ruse continue?  When scientists like Stephanie Seneff at MIT start predicting, out loud on TV, an upswing in neurodegenerative diseases caused by the vaccine, people will notice.  Cancel culture will try to silence her, as they have others like Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Robert Malone, but more people are awakening to the shocking realization that they have blindly followed the Pied Piper and will reap a deadly harvest, including the destruction of their own, and in many cases, their children's health.  You can't silence the facts forever.  Look at Australia, where, for all its draconian measures, there's now a huge upsurge of cases.

He got the COVID shot... now he's gone.  A beautiful young man died last week.  He had just turned 15.  He was becoming a talented artist with a passion for drawing, and he was developing musical skills as a guitar player, drummer, and pianist.  As a freshman, he was a member of the high school band.  He enjoyed the outdoors and already showed skill as a hunter and fisherman. [...] As a young teenager, he was just becoming a man who would make others proud.  His prospects were good, his potential unlimited.  He was respectful and considerate.  He was also recently vaccinated.  It was important to someone that this healthy youngster be vaccinated against a virus that has little to no effect on one of his age and good health.  Alone a few days after Christmas, this 15-year-old collapsed with a heart attack and died.

Since the vaccines fail against Omicron, science and reason tell us to end all vaccine mandates and COVID passes.  Given the fact that the vaccines do not work against Omicron and that Omicron is now the globally dominant Covid strain, it makes no logical or medical sense to continue with vaccinating and boostering at this time.  After all, why would anyone in their right mind needlessly inject people with failed protections that carry a risk of severe adverse reactions?  At this point we are out of vaccine options.  No vaccine that is currently at our disposal can protect people from contracting and transmitting Omicron infection or reduce the severity of its symptoms.  We have seen that the opposite is actually the case:  the vaccinated and the boostered are contracting Omicron at higher rates than the unvaccinated.

The Post-Pandemic World.  Together with guarded hopes that the decline of the omicron COVID-19 wave marks the beginning of the end of the pandemic comes the question:  what happens when it has finally run its course?  What will the post-pandemic world be like?  The most likely scenario is that it will unleash the greatest political jailbreak since the end of the second world war.  Only a few months after Hitler's armies surrendered, the British electorate, eager to put the restrictions of war behind them, handed Winston Churchill a landslide defeat and replaced him with Clement Atlee.  Once victory removed the rationale for all the regulations they had willingly accepted, they set about removing them.  With the end of the current pandemic, the justification for lockdowns, masks, mandates, tracking, and restrictions on the public will similarly vanish and the desire for a new world will be unleashed.  This may expose the bureaucrats who've spent the last three years building 'empires of fear' to a widespread political backlash.  What will make it worse is that the bureaucrats cannot even claim victory over the virus for their policies.  It just seemed to have run its course, with omicron representing the final stage of the viral evolution to an endemic disease.

No Apology From 'Hypocrite' Left Leader Over Alleged Lockdown Rule Breaches.  Leftist Labour leader Keir Starmer has turned up the pressure on the government over rule breaches in recent weeks but no apology was forthcoming when he was accused of breaking the same regulations.  Keir Starmer, the head of the UK's leftist Labour party — despite being pressured — refused to apologise for his own breach of lockdown rules on Monday, instead opting to deflect to the transgressions of embattled PM Boris Johnson.

The media blackout on Fauci's emails.  Last week saw another batch of emails drop from Anthony Fauci, and another media blackout as to their contents.  The strategy by the press in cases like this has been pretty straightforward: ignore the story, wait for right-leaning media or Republicans to pick it up, then frame any attacks on the subject as tainted by partisanship.  Last week, when confronted once again by Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, Fauci responded with more hyperbole and ad hominem.  The media, meanwhile, framed the exchanges as "Rand Paul Attacks!" and "Anthony Fauci defends!" They refused to look at the information in the emails that Paul was asking about, refused to ask questions about them, refused to even report on them.  They are interested in the bloodsport, not the truth.  The reason for that is simple:  the truth is becoming very problematic for the man who once conflated himself with science itself.

Reports:  Fauci has investments in Chinese-tied fund.  Republican senators find NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) Director, Dr. Anthony Fauci has questionable investments in Chinese-tied companies.  On Saturday, Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) released Fauci's financial disclosures showing his investments in the Matthews Pacific Tiger Fund among other things.  That fund has nearly 43 percent of its portfolio invested in Hong Kong and China, including a Chinese pharmaceutical company.  Overall, Fauci has almost $10.5 million invested in various companies and critics are sounding the alarm over his potential conflicts of interests.  Judicial Watch President, Tom Fitton specially commented on the matter.

Risks of myocarditis, pericarditis, and cardiac arrhythmias associated with COVID-19 vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection.  By the end of September 2021, more than 6.3 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccination had been administered worldwide.  Clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines were underpowered to detect the rare adverse events that are important for risk-benefit evaluations and to inform clinical practice postvaccination.  Therefore, identifying such rare adverse events is now a global scientific priority.  As of 4 November 2021, there have been 1,783 reports to the United States Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) of cases of heart inflammation, namely myocarditis or pericarditis, among people aged 12 [to] 29 years who received COVID-19 vaccines, in particular following mRNA vaccination, that is, BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 vaccines.

While Shuttering Your Family Business, Fauci Made $1.7 Million On His Lies.  While Americans who were forced to stay at home by tyrannical politicians and health bureaucrats struggled to make ends meet during the pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci's household raked in $1,776,479.  According to Fauci's financial disclosures obtained by Open The Books, the federal government paid Fauci and his wife Christine Grady, who also works at the National Institutes of Health, $868,812 in combined income and benefits in 2020.  In addition to their federal salaries, the Fauci household also received royalties and stipends totaling at least $113,298 while their investment accounts increased by $794,369.  These financial increases pushed the Fauci household's net worth beyond $10.4 million.  Previously released financial disclosures from 2019 had already indicated the federal government paid Fauci $417,608 making him the highest-paid federal employee that year.

Dr. Fauci's NIAID spent over $200,000 to feminize monkeys.  Dr. Anthony Fauci's division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), gave more than $200,000 to Scripps Research in December of 2021 to study why transgender women have high rates of HIV.  It did this, in the midst of a global pandemic, by injecting male monkeys with female hormones in an attempt to feminize them.  The NIH says doing so would allow researchers to study how the feminizing hormones impact the monkeys' immune systems.  They could have just made the monkeys watch the Hallmark Channel.

COVID has become a worldwide cult.  Normal people simply do not want to follow individuals, no matter how charismatic, who promise miracles in return for all of their money and earthly possessions, nor do they want to have their lives completely controlled.  Or at least that once was true.  It would seem that this is no longer the case.  Millions of people around the world appear to have joined a cult based on COVID.  They are wearing masks to show their obedience, although masks may not be effective and have been shown to cause emotional and mental problems.  They are rushing to be vaccinated, although vaccines could be driving COVID mutations.  The father of mRNA vaccines, Dr. Robert Malone, has been warning against universal vaccination.

Massive 145-Country Study Shows Sharp Increase of Transmission and Death After Introduction of COVID Vaccines.  Instead of bringing an end to this pandemic as promised, the widespread rollout of the experimental vaccines has actually caused a sharp increase in Covid-19 cases and deaths across the world, according to a recently published preprint study that looked at data from the 145 of the most vaccinated countries in the world.  The 99-page study titled "Worldwide Bayesian Causal Impact Analysis of Vaccine Administration on Deaths and Cases Associated with COVID-19: A BigData Analysis of 145 Countries" found that in the US specifically, the jab has caused a whopping 38% more Covid cases per million — and an even more astonishing 31% increase in deaths per million.

Rhode Island went from firing unvaccinated health care workers to allowing the COVID-positive to work.  After implementing a coronavirus mandate for health care workers this fall, Rhode Island has now opened an option for COVID-positive health care workers to continue working if their facility is facing a staffing crisis.  "Also, facility administrators should be using their clinical judgment in making staffing decisions.  For example, a facility may opt for a COVID-19 positive worker to only care for COVID-19 positive patients," Joseph Wendelken, a spokesperson from the department of health, told the Providence Journal on Saturday [1/1/2022].  A memo was sent to employees of state-run Eleanor Slater Hospital on Friday explaining that "those who are exposed or have a positive Covid test but are asymptomatic" can continue reporting to work "in crisis situations for staffing" if they wear N95 masks.

Vaccinated people are dying from autoimmune attacks against their own organs.  Two reputable scientists from Germany, Sucharit Bhakdi, M.D. and Arne Burkhardt, M.D., published a bombshell paper entitled, "On COVID vaccines: why they cannot work, and irrefutable evidence of their causative role in deaths after vaccination."  The findings were presented on December 10th at an interdisciplinary symposium where researchers discussed the safety and efficacy of the new vaccines.  The study took a closer look at fifteen vaccinated patients (ages ranging from 28-95) who died within seven days up to six months after receiving an experimental covid vaccine.  The vaccines did not save their lives.  In fact, fourteen of the deceased vaccinated patients suffered from extensive autoimmune damage in various vital organs.  After taking the spike protein mRNA, their antibodies and T-lymphocytes had turned against them, attacking their vital organs.  Because coroners are not properly trained to link vaccines to various causes of death, most of the fatalities were initially determined to be caused by "arrhythmogenic heart failure."

Are Unvaccinated Lives Unworthy of Life?  We Are Slipping into the Space Addressed at Nuremberg.  It is difficult to pinpoint exactly when it started, but we are now at a point where the threat posed is undeniable to any rational person: those treating COVID-19 as an unending apocalypse, worthy of stripping away all personal freedoms in the name of security and safety by emergency decree, have embraced the same subtle shift in thinking that Dr. Leo Alexander warned about in his 1946 article, Medical Science Under Dictatorship, written following the Nuremberg Trial of the Nazi medical doctors.  This move to totalitarianism also draws upon the playbook Lord Bertrand Russell described in his 1951 book, The Impact of Science on Society.  Russell proposed the use of mass psychology to institute a "scientific dictatorship" that places the state between children and their families, first exemplified in the imposition of gender and race ideologies in the schools, and now, in implementing child vaccine mandates.  In this engineered fascist propaganda shock front regarding public health, science, critical thinking, and the Hippocratic Oath are being abandoned in favor of politically punishing the unvaccinated by denying them necessary medical treatment — while deliberately sabotaging viable treatments for COVID other than vaccines.

Over One Thousand Scientific Studies Prove That the COVID-19 Vaccines Are Dangerous.  Just over 12 months from deployment of the COVID 19 emergency use experimental vaccines, scientific studies in the thousands, and reports of criminal complaints of assault and murder from the illegal, unlawful use of biochemical poisons made to police forces around the country, verify an assault on an unsuspecting UK population.  Irrefutable science shows that the COVID 19 vaccine is not safe and not effective in limiting transmission or infection from the SARS-CoV-2, coronavirus pathogens.  The "safe and effective" false propaganda, put out by public officials who now are continuing to push this vaccine, is a clear breach of duty.  A public office holder is subject to, and aware of, a duty to prevent death or serious injury that arises only by virtue of the functions of the public office.

Flu deaths reality check.  Do thousands of Canadians really die every year from the flu?  The flu folks keep saying so.  I've already heard it repeated several times this year and flu season has just started.  This is what the Public Health Agency of Canada said in a recent press release:  "Every year, between 2,000 and 8,000 Canadians die of the flu and its complications."  In a CBC interview a few weeks ago an editor of the Canadian Medical Association Journal said:  "Four thousand to 8,000 people die every year of influenza."  It comes directly from the desk of Canada's chief public health officer.  "The flu is serious," he tells us from his website.  "Every year, between 2,000 and 8,000 Canadians die of the flu and its complications."  Did you ever wonder how they know that?  The fact is, they don't know that.  "This is a scientific guess.  This is not the truth," Dr. Michael Gardam, director of the infection prevention and control unit at the University Health Network in Toronto and a longtime flu watcher, told me.

The Editor says...
Think for a moment:  Have you ever known anyone who died from influenza?  Probably not.  Does anybody really die as a result of influenza?

CDC just published a paper that admits that VAERS is underreported by at least 6.5X.  [Scroll down]  The paper tries to make you believe that the rate of myocarditis for this age range were only 11 cases in 8 million doses.  Now contrast that with the 1 in 70 rate of myocarditis actually experienced at Monte Vista Christian School, a private school near where I live (teenage boys in this case).  They want you to believe the rate is 1 in 363,000 fully vaccinated kids.  What we see in real life is as high as 1 in 70 (in teenage boys).  See a difference?  The CDC is reporting a rate that is 5,000 times lower than what we are actually observing in the real world.  How is that possible?  The CDC doesn't want to talk to me about it.  As for death rates, I've written about this particular paper before. [...] I explain in that article how the 2 reported deaths are more like 81 actual deaths (due to the more realistic 41 VAERS URF) which if we conservatively remove the 50 background deaths, you get 31 excess deaths in an average of 3M kids which is >10 deaths per million.  This is 10X higher than any sane stopping condition ([in another article] Paul Offit admits that a vaccine that kills 1 person per million vaccinated is unsafe for use in humans).

Reality Versus Fear, Data Versus Delusion.  What are ordinary people to believe?  The government keeps unleashing information on how COVID vaccines work and on how unvaccinated people are at so much greater risk.  On the other hand, anyone who chooses to follow medical studies and analyses as well as watching the reality around them, sees just the opposite.  The most vaccinated people come down with omicron.  That is reality.  As with previous variants, the vast majority of people have low risk of getting seriously ill.  Here is the simplest message critically needed for the public to absorb:  Whatever benefits COVID vaccines might have offered previously, they offer extremely few benefits for the now dominant omicron variant.  True experts and well-informed people know this truth.  But the US and most other governments keep pushing mass vaccination and repeated booster shots.  This does nothing to protect the public.  Are lives being saved through vaccination?  Reality is that very high numbers of people are dying every day from late stage COVID.  Are we to believe that all or even most of these are unvaccinated?  I do not.

6 Questions Our Branch Covidian Overlords Refuse To Answer.  [Scroll down]  Short of a Biblical-level apocalyptic disease and a perfectly safe and sterile vaccine against it, mandates are never actually justified.  However, now that even the powers-that-be admit that these vaccines don't stop contraction or transmission and only supposedly prevent severe illness and deaths for a few months, mandates for *these specific* vaccines are even less justified than anyone can possibly imagine.  So even if you support vaccine mandates as a general concept, there is no logical or scientific reason to support mandates for these. [...] It's been widely acknowledged since at least October that Covid vaccine effectiveness wanes significantly within months.  Yet, the powers-that-be refuse to change the definition of "fully-vaccinated" to include boosters.  Why?

Salt Lake Tribune editorial board calls for deploying National Guard to keep unvaxxed in their homes.  The entire Salt Lake Tribune Editorial Board got together and published an op-ed Saturday that has many wondering if we are still living in America.  According to the Board — the whole Board, mind you — Salt Lake City is no longer a "truly civilized place."  If it were, the Board contends, Utah Governor Spencer Cox would find a way to enlist the National Guard in the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic.  "Were Utah a truly civilized place, the governor's next move would be to find a way to mandate the kind of mass vaccination campaign we should have launched a year ago, going as far as to deploy the National Guard to ensure that people without proof of vaccination would not be allowed, well, anywhere," the board wrote.  "But it may be too late for that, politically and medically."  Apparently, the editorial board at the Salt Lake Tribune is frustrated by their government officials — "mostly but not exclusively Republicans" the Board notes with disdain — and their obsession with the Constitution.

Australian Government Deports Unvaccinated Tennis Player Novak Djokovic Citing His Threat to Social Cohesion.  The Australian Open is scheduled to begin January 17th in Melbourne, the epicenter of Australia's totalitarian COVID mandates.  Australia granted unvaccinated tennis superstar Novak Djokovic a visa to compete.  Australian border officials then attempted to block his entry and deport him, because he was unvaccinated.  Novak Djokovic took the issue to the federal court in Australia, and won his legal case against the Australian government.  The government then decided unilaterally to revoke his visa on immigration grounds.  Djokovic appealed.  The world #1 ranked tennis player Novak Djokovic lost his appeal today to remain in Australia and play the Australian Open tournament.  He was immediately escorted to the airport and kicked out.

Lots of bureaucrats are counting on you to live in a continuous state of fear, so you'll remain pliable.  This article is unmitigated left-wing propaganda.
Expect more worrisome variants after omicron, scientists say.  Get ready to learn more Greek letters.  Scientists warn that omicron's whirlwind advance practically ensures it won't be the last version of the coronavirus to worry the world.  Every infection provides a chance for the virus to mutate, and omicron has an edge over its predecessors:  It spreads way faster despite emerging on a planet with a stronger patchwork of immunity from vaccines and prior illness.

Medical board suspends license of doc, asks for psych evaluation for prescribing ivermectin and HCQ for COVID and for public dissent from orthodoxy.  Shades of the darkest days of the Stalinist Soviet Union, where dissent from the lethal incorrect pseudo-scientific doctrines of Lysenkoism could result in imprisonment in a psychiatric hospital! [...] Dr. [Meryl J.] Nass's purported "misconduct" includes both prescribing hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin and talking and writing about them in public.

Doctor loses license, ordered to have psych eval for Ivermectin scripts, sharing Covid 'misinformation'.  A 25-year Maine doctor has had her license temporarily suspended and been ordered to submit to a psychological evaluation for the alleged offenses of treating her patients with Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, in addition to sharing so-called "misinformation" about the coronavirus and its associated vaccines.  The State of Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine issued the 30-day suspension (minimum) last Tuesday on the grounds that Dr. Meryl J. Nass' medical services would constitute "an immediate jeopardy to the health and physical safety of the public."

Sacrificing Children to Covid Vaccines.  Three basic facts have been well established by data and studies:
  [#1]   Healthy children are at virtually zero risk of serious Covid.
  [#2]   The vaccines will not prevent children from contracting the virus.
  [#3]   Covid injections carry risk of serious side effects.
According to a cost-benefit analysis conducted by Toby Rogers, Ph.D., in the 5 to 11 age range, 117 healthy kids will have to die of vaccine-related side effects in order to save one child from perishing of Covid 19.  A study from Japan has shown that young people are seven hundred percent more likely to be killed by Pfizer jabs than by Covid.  We have been repeatedly told that we must follow facts and science when dealing with this pandemic.  The science on vaccinating children against Covid-19 is in, and it could not be any clearer:  while healthy children are at negligible risk from the disease itself, they are at real risk from the shots.

'Waste of Time' to Keep Vaccinating People:  Ex-Head of UK Vaccine Taskforce.  It is a "waste of time" to keep vaccinating people against the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, the former chairman of Britain's Vaccines Taskforce has said.  Dr. Clive Dix, who played a key role in helping pharmaceutical firms create the COVID-19 vaccines, told LBC radio on Jan. 16: "The Omicron variant is a relatively mild virus.  And to just keep vaccinating people and thinking of doing it again to protect the population is, in my view, now a waste of time."  Dix said the focus now should be on protecting vulnerable people, such as those over 60, 2 percent of whom remain unvaccinated.  "We should have a highly-focused approach to get those people vaccinated and anybody else who's vulnerable," he said.  Though he supports the ongoing booster campaign, he said he has been "critical" of boosting everybody as he is not convinced "it was needed or is needed" for younger people.  Dix said, "I think the thinking of the time was very much to stop infection and transmission where clearly these vaccines don't do that."

Former head of UK vaccination task force says [it is] a 'waste of time' to keep vaccinating people.  Cracks are appearing in the vaccination frenzy that has gripped medical authorities and politicians here and elsewhere.  Despite the admission by the CEO of Pfizer that "two doses of the vaccine offer very limited protection, if any," fanatics in and out of medicine, government, and journalism persist in urging draconian measures to eliminate the unvaccinated from society.  The propaganda and fear porn blitz has convinced about half of Democrats to want to vitiate the Constitution to persecute vax refusers and even questioners: [...] But the narrative that vaccinations offer deliverance from the scariest epidemic since the bubonic plague is crumbling before our very eyes, as the far milder omicron variant spreads herd immunity and the officially recognized truth of the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin slowly reaches the public.  An important voice in Britain has spoken out on the absurdity of the vax frenzy.

Crumbling Narratives Leave the Ruling Class with Everything to Fear.  Here's what our COVID-1984 authoritarians want:  they seek to use pandemics, wars, uncontrolled immigration, doomsday climate predictions, and "woke" cultural Marxism to keep people in a constant state of fear, divided among themselves, and willing to hand over their freedoms for evaporative promises of protection. [...] The powers that be — the central bankers, global financial elites, corporate propagandists, and political aristocrats — have given up on any notion of truth.  They neither pursue it objectively nor desire to discover it for philosophical or spiritual elevation.  Truth, to them, is too dangerous because it cannot be controlled by men with power.  So they murdered it and molded a monster out of clay they affectionately call their narrative.  Then, having no respect for the dead or remorse for their deed, they chose to disguise their monstrous narratives with masks made from truth's likeness. [...] Like a tribe of Paleolithic hunter-gatherers dancing around a fire and praying to the moon, the powers that be pretend to be obedient and humble disciples of science's objective purity by chanting together, "We must follow the science wherever it goes."  In practice, however, they know exactly where the science will go because they are the ones paying for it to dance to the beat they alone provide.  If science is controlled by a global oligarchy using it for personal wealth and power, then "trust the science" really means "trust the authoritarians."  It really is that simple.

Watch Australia closely.  Australia has deported Novak Djokovic for the crime of being unvaccinated.  Sending the world's top tennis player home may make the Karens of the South feel better.  Too bad it won't solve their Omicron crisis.  Australia now averages more than 100,000 new Covid cases per day — equal to about 1.5 million in the United States.  One fine day last week, it reported 175,000, the equivalent of about 2.5 million, maybe the highest per-capita total any country has ever reported.  Not even six months ago, Australia was still chasing zero Covid and patting itself on the back for "Doughnut Days" — with no new Covid infections. [...] Its policy of open coercion and discrimination against the unvaccinated has "succeeded" — more than 95 percent of Australians 16 and over have received at least one vaccine dose, and 93 percent two doses.  Those figures effectively represent full vaccination — many of the people left are probably simply too frail to tolerate Covid vaccines.

Big Pharma CEO Blows a Hole in Vaccine Mandates.  Vaccine mandates are one of many stifling measures brought on by the ongoing COVID pandemic, a consequence of those trying to "follow the science" and doing anything but or of government and bureaucrat officials using the opportunity to flex their authoritarian muscles.  Whether they serve a useful societal function is an open question.  The CDC website cites a book chapter by research scholars Kevin Malone and Alan Hinman that describes vaccine mandates as a means of "drastically reducing infectious diseases in the United States."  Mandates present a challenge "when societal interest conflicts with the individual's interest."  With vaccine mandates, there is the assumption that "Increased immunization rates result in significantly decreased risk for disease."

Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla makes startling admissions about the vaccines.  Last week Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, gave an interview to Yahoo Finance and made some truly startling admissions.  He said, among other things, that the two original Pfizer injections provide no protection against COVID-19.  "We know that the two doses of the vaccine offer very limited protection, if any," Bourla confessed.  If, then, you have received the two shots, you are not protected against infection or severe COVID or death.  Neither are you less likely to transmit the disease to others than your unvaccinated neighbor or co-worker.  To put it in a different way, the first two jabs you have taken are no good to you at this point.

Conspiracies as Realities, Realities as Conspiracies.  Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, the level-4 security Wuhan Institute of Virology lab has been central to all narratives about the origins, nature, and spread of the pandemic.  There have been four cycles of these fantasies and realities.  First came the frantic denials of a connection by the Chinese government, most of the Americana media, a consortium of scientists mostly dependent on Drs.  Francis Collins and Anthony Fauci for generous support, corporate grandees with lucrative concessions in China, and the federal health apparat itself.  Second, the iron-clad denial of a human-engineered virus waned by the weight of its own contradictions.  Evidence, at first circumstantial, later nearly overwhelming, seeped through the Wuhan denial wall of social media, traditional media, the Chinese government, and the U.S. establishment.  Those interests all shared a common purpose of seeing Trump, the supposed Sinophobe, gone and the bat/pangolin fiction conspiracy apparently seemed yet one more way to achieve this goal.  A third phase then emerged, as the true role of Peter Daszak's EcoHealth Alliance was revealed, as the pathetic international and Chinese-fed "investigations" collapsed in conflicts of interests, as interagency emails emerged from the CDC, NIH, and NIAID, and as a hothead Dr. Fauci protested too much in his paranoid denials before the Senate of his own role in any subsidized gain-of-function research.  The American people and some media began to resist the intimidation and look at the evidence.  Now we are at the fourth and final stage of the catastrophe.  A once esteemed Fauci has been reduced to a cranky apparatchik.

HHS Will Stop Counting COVID Deaths on Feb. 2, According to New Guidance for Hospitals.  At this point, it's clear there's a difference between hospitalization with COVID-19 and for COVID-19.  Now take the next logical step; there is also a difference between dying with COVID and dying from COVID.  How many people listed as dying of COVID were receiving treatment for another illness and only tested positive?  Apparently, that is a conversation the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) does not want to have.  In an astonishing move, HHS notified hospitals they are no longer required to report COVID deaths beginning Feb. 2, 2022.  Currently, the only required reporting of COVID deaths is the count from the previous day.

"I Don't Know How You Sleep at Night".  [Scroll down]  Unitaid, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the WHO, and Dr. Andrew Hill could have done what was best for humanity.  They could have looked at the unassailable medical evidence for cheap, exceedingly safe, readily available ivermectin with benevolent, humane eyes.  Doing so would have certainly altered the oceans of revenue that were forecast to come from the vaccines and the novel anti-viral therapies made by Big Pharma.  (No anti-viral pill can match the high safety profile of ivermectin, or its extraordinary efficacy against covid-19.)  But at the same time, it would have reshaped the fates of the thousands who will never take another breath; because though their lives could have been saved, money became monarch... and the sentence was passed.  This is not over.  Not by a long shot.  The courts will have something to say about these murders that occurred (and are still occurring) throughout the world.

Why suppress early safe treatments for Covid?  Here's $24 billion reasons.  People are asking why early safe cheap treatments could have been suppressed, after all, people are dying.  A better question is to ask how could any cheap alternative treatment ever be selected?  The money-pot on offer is so stupendously, fantastically big, it can buy small nations.  And the cheap drugs don't just compete with it, they obliterate it.  In the current system, legally, the FDA can't give EUA (Emergency Use Authorization) for any vaccine if there is a safe useful alternative.  The EUA approval is simply extinguished by any treatment that works.  Therefore billions of dollars in profits depends on making sure there are no cheap safe alternatives.  It's not a question of whether Big Pharma are pulling levers to crush cheap drugs.  With billions at stake, Pfizer and other companies would be crazy, nutso, bonkers, and doing their shareholders a disservice if they did not lobby, cajole, scare, smear and call in all their favours to make sure there would never be a cheap safe alternative.

Here's what you should know about Pfizer's new COVID drug.  The pro-drug industry mainstream media are insanely positive over the newly FDA approved Pfizer antiviral COVID treatment pills.  The drug, Paxlovid, received an emergency use authorization by FDA for use in patients 12 years old and up who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are at high risk.  Now is the time to speak calmly and accurately about Paxlovid.  First, everyone should appreciate that there was very little testing of the short- and long-term safety of this product, exactly what happened with COVID vaccines.  Really good testing of a new drug should take many months or even years.  All you get is positive news for this new drug — actually a combination of drugs.  Here are brief summary statements about this new product:  It was approved by the FDA without any external meetings, serious reviews of test data, or opportunity for public input.  Pretty much all the regulatory work was done behind closed doors.  Terrific for Pfizer.  Bad for the public.

Big Brother's Watching:  Canadian Officials Admit They Tracked 87% Of Canadian's Phones During COVID Without Them Knowing.  Canada's privacy watchdog is probing federal officials' use of "de-identified" cellphone location data to measure the efficacy of COVID-19 public health measures.  The Public Health Agency of Canada acknowledged last month it has been purchasing access to cellphone location data in order to analyze Canadians' movements during the pandemic.  The agency has said the data is aggregated and "de-identified" — meaning it can't be used to pinpoint individual Canadians' locations or travel habits.  The program's existence nevertheless raised concerns with privacy advocates and opposition politicians, who successfully forced an emergency Commons committee meeting on the issue.

Canadian Officials Admit They Captured Private Cell Phone Data to Conduct Secret Pandemic Surveillance.  Comrades, when we permit the government to gather private cell phone data, the government will always gather private cell phone data.  In Canada the health officials have now admitted they captured, without legislative authority, the personal cell phone data and geolocation data of 33 million Canadians.  As a result, and a little late all things considered, privacy issues are being raised about the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) buying the location data of Canadian cellphone users to monitor their activity.  The agency said it wanted to analyze the movement of people during the pandemic to ensure their safety and well-being.  However, the implications of a totalitarian administrative state monitoring citizens under the guise of pandemic authority, does not make everyone feel comfy.

Thousands march on Amsterdam in protest over the government's Covid measures and vaccine rollout.  Thousands of protesters packed Amsterdam's streets on Sunday [1/16/2022] in opposition to the government-imposed Covid measures and vaccination campaign as virus infections hit a new record.  Authorities were granted stop and search powers at several locations across the city and scores of riot police vans patrolled neighbourhoods where the demonstrators marched with banners and yellow umbrellas.  Regular anti-coronavirus protests are held across the country and Sunday's large gathering was joined by farmers who drove to the capital and parked tractors along the central Museum Square.

Boston students freezing in classrooms due to COVID requirements.  A quick check with the National Weather Service indicates that it was four degrees in Boston at the time of this writing.  Students in Boston's public schools had better cross their fingers and hope that it warms up significantly before they return to class on Tuesday, or they're going to be in for a very uncomfortable day of learning.  (At least for those whose schools are actually open for in-person learning, that is.)  The reason is that all of the public schools in Boston are required by a school board mandate to leave the windows in the classrooms cracked open.  In January.  Parents are already complaining that they're having to bundle their kids up in multiple layers of clothing just to get them through the day.

Woman Wearing A Closed Vest Ventilator Is Kicked Off Delta Flight For Complaining The Passengers Aren't Masked Enough.  A video that has gone viral on social media shows how extreme mass formation psychosis can actually get.  The woman in the video is seen with a mask over an actually closed vest ventilator.  She is being escorted off a Delta flight after she was warned several times to stop posting videos to her Twitter account complaining about their mask protocols.  The woman was not happy many of the passengers were wearing only cloth masks and would not stop making videos of her surroundings.  [Video clip]

Why did scientists suppress the lab-leak theory?  In December 2019 there was an outbreak in China of a novel bat-borne SARS-like coronavirus a few miles from the world's leading laboratory for collecting, studying and manipulating novel bat-borne SARS-like coronaviruses.  We were assured by leading scientists in China, the US and the UK that this really was a coincidence, even when the nine closest relatives of the new virus turned up in the freezer of the laboratory in question, at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  Now we know what those leading scientists really thought.  Emails exchanged between them after a conference call on 1 February 2020, and only now forced into the public domain by Republicans in the US Congress, show that they not only thought the virus might have leaked from a lab, but they also went much further in private.  They thought the genome sequence of the new virus showed a strong likelihood of having been deliberately manipulated or accidentally mutated in the lab.  Yet later they drafted an article for a scientific journal arguing that the suggestion not just of a manipulated virus, but even of an accidental spill, could be confidently dismissed and was a crackpot conspiracy theory.

Rare Spinal Cord Condition Flagged as Potential Adverse Effect of COVID-19 Vaccines:  EU Drug Regulator.  The European Union's drug regulator has indicated that a change to the product information for COVID-19 vaccines from AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson has been recommended to include a warning of a rare spinal cord condition called transverse myelitis.  TM is a rare condition that involves inflammation of one or both sides of the spinal cord.  Symptoms can include weakness in the limbs, and tingling, numbness, pain or loss of pain sensation, or issues with bladder and bowel function.  The Pharmacovigilance and Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC), the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) committee that assesses the safety of human medicines, recommended the change on Jan. 14 after concluding that a causal link between the two vaccines and TM is "at least a reasonable possibility."

What's Next for OSHA on COVID Vaccine Mandates?  Well, it didn't take long for the bloom to come off the rose with regard to the Supreme Court's OSHA decision when Circle Back Jen and the president broadcast their intention to ignore the Court's ruling by encouraging businesses to implement their own vaccine mandates.  One way or the other, the federal government is going to make sure everyone is vaccinated, or these people will at least do every conceivable thing in their power to make that happen — including enlisting the aid of their corporate heavies. [...] For a leader who is compelling individuals to choose between earning a living and a medical technology that is not fully vetted for its long-term adverse effects, and is openly hoarding and withholding monoclonal antibodies that reduce hospitalization and death by 70% and shorten illness by four days... it is rich when Biden says he is "disappointed that the Supreme Court has chosen to block common-sense life-saving requirements" that he further concludes are "a very modest burden" on employees.  Let me make sure you get that.  Under the pretense of saving lives, Biden is literally forcing "life-saving" vaccines on people by denying them life-saving therapeutics and medications.

Our Post-COVID Loss of Liberty.  Imagine you're an upstanding citizen in your suburban community.  You pay your taxes, you jump through the regulatory hoops and pay all the licensing fees to keep your beloved little neighborhood eatery up and running, and you try to give your best to your family and community every day.  Then, one day in March of 2020, the government decides that a health emergency that might overwhelm some hospitals in some American cities is reason enough to make it illegal for you to make a living by selling a burger to your neighbor who wants to buy one.  More than that, it's also reason enough to force your children out of school and to shutter your church.  This is not because any hospitals near you are overwhelmed, mind you, but because some hospitals, somewhere, perhaps far away, might be overwhelmed at some point in the future.  And this understanding between the government and its citizens continues long after capacity at any American hospital is seriously stressed beyond the norm, on the grounds that the unseen and omnipresent viral threat we potentially face could emerge and ravage the hospital infrastructure at any moment.

Munchausen's White House.  [Scroll down]  The PBS Christmas Special that aired on 12/23/21 featured mostly masked nurses singing a rackety, godless show tune to an audience of one unmasked, uncomfortable Jill Biden.  The creepy exhibition reflects a pathological need for the Biden administration to view the American people as sick and in need of government nurses.  Gone are the choruses of joyful American children singing Christmas carols in this White House.  In the first place, the left doesn't like the idea of children.  The only little womb survivors they celebrate are artificially procreated babies acquired by homosexual men. [...] In July of 2021, again fawningly promoted on PBS (co-conspirator to the administration's sinister subjugation of a once-proud, brave American people), Biden played the caring parent, committing federal disability funding for people with the dubious malady called "long COVID."  He stated, "Many Americans who seemingly recover from the virus still face lingering breathing problems, brain fog, chronic pain, and fatigue."  The insidious message is that Americans will never recover.  Biden's symptom list is Munchausen's dream because its contents are vague, subjective, unmeasurable, and untreatable conditions that readily become permanent.  The dangling of federal disability benefits could create an enormous class of professionally disabled, tax-payer supported people — which is the Democrats' goal for America.

Covid: A Collision of Historical and Scientific Illiteracy.  [Scroll down]  Here are a few examples of how people around the world abandoned science when it came to Covid.
  [#1]   The PCR test for Covid infection in the U.S., which was used in many other countries as well, did not identify a unique coronavirus.  In other words, the test had a high rate of false positives.  Still, people accepted the narrative of "cases" that drove the fear.
  [#2]   The policy endorsed by the WHO and the CDC that attributed Covid as a cause of death for anyone who tested positive using the false PCR test, no matter what their actual cause of death was, dramatically inflated the number of deaths attributed to Covid.
  [#3]   Both the word vaccine and the word pandemic were redefined by agencies like the WHO to enable the Covid scare.
  [#4]   The "vaccines" are experimental gene therapies that are making people sick and killing them.  Those bought into the vaccine narrative responded to this fact with the diversionary claim that the Covid drugs do not change your DNA.  But most gene therapies do not change your DNA.  Instead, they provide a functioning gene in addition to your DNA.  More importantly, all the Covid "vaccines" provide genetic material that drives the production of toxic spike proteins that cause blood clotting, endothelial tissue damage, antibody dependent enhancement, and death.
  [#5]   The Emergency Use Authorizations under which these Covid drugs were granted temporary approvals were based on fraudulent attacks against long-established, effective treatments like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine.  The suppression of these effective drugs is responsible for the deaths of the patients who did die from Covid (instead of just with Covid).

A nation behind masks.  Masks can't cover up, disguise, or conceal the real, grotesque reasons why we have been forced to wear them.  They can't hide the fact that our rulers and "experts" enjoy the power they have over those they make don them.  Nor can they cloak the disdain our rulers and "experts" have for us, as continually proven by their almost universal refusal to wear masks.  In the very same places and situations, and at the very same times, that they mandate we wear them.  How many elegant soirées have we seen at which maskless Democratic politicians are being feted by uniformly masked servants?  And that is how they think of us.  As servants.  This is the reverse of what was intended by the Founders.

Democrats [are] OK with fines, prison, and mandates for vaccine deniers:  Poll.  Nearly two years after former President Donald Trump tossed politics into the nation's battle against the coronavirus, the partisan divide appears to have grown, with Republicans fighting mandates and Democrats calling for harsh punishments for those who refuse to get vaccinated.  In an expanded survey of the public's view of mandates and punishments to get people vaccinated, Rasmussen Reports found that Democrats even support fines, home confinement, and prison for those who fight the government on masks and shots.

It's a nation of sheep, and somehow the sheep keep voting for less freedom.

After 28 Days on Ventilator, Family Loses Legal Battle to Try Ivermectin, Other Alternative Treatments, for Dying Father.  A Florida family fighting to give their loved one on a ventilator alternative treatments for COVID-19 have lost another battle — this time in Florida's First District Court of Appeal.  The wife and son of Daniel Pisano first squared off against Mayo Clinic Florida at an emergency hearing on Dec. 30 in Florida's Fourth Judicial Circuit.  Before that, they'd been begging the hospital to allow them to try treating Pisano — who's been on a ventilator now for 28 days — with the controversial drug ivermectin, along with a mix of other drugs and supplements, part of a protocol recommended by the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC).  The family's request for an emergency injunction to force the Mayo Clinic to allow treatments recommended by an outside doctor was denied by Judge Marianne Aho.  They appealed the decision.  On Jan. 14, Aho's decision was upheld by Florida's First District Court of Appeal.

Goodbye Pandemic, Hello Endemic.  In early 1918, when World War I entered its final year, the H1N1 influenza A virus infected millions of people, causing the Spanish flu pandemic.  By April 1920, after four waves and almost 100 million deaths, the pandemic ended.  H1N1 became much less deadly and caused only ordinary seasonal flu.  It had become an endemic virus.  Will history repeat itself?  After two years of the COVID-19 pandemic and four waves of different variants, will SARS-CoV-2 become an endemic virus?  After my recent opinion piece "Omicron May Help End the Pandemic This Winter" was published, readers asked if I could cite peer-reviewed publications to support my pandemic-ending claim.  Well, as the Omicron wave is still ongoing, my projection can only be as good as an educated prediction.  But things are looking pretty good.

Religious exemptions for military vaccine mandate hard to come by.  The Marine Corps granted two religious exemption requests for the coronavirus vaccine, the service announced Thursday, marking the first time any such accommodation was affirmed despite thousands of requests.  Religious exemptions are hard to come by in the military.  This is the first the Marines have granted in at least a decade, according to the Military Times.  The lack of such accommodations as it relates to the coronavirus has also become a source of political division, a microcosm of the perpetual debate regarding whether mandating the vaccine comports with people's First Amendment rights.

Dr. Anthony Fauci's financial disclosure shows $10.4M in investments.  If this medicine thing doesn't work out, Dr. Anthony Fauci can always get a job on Wall Street.  The president's chief medical advisor and his wife had $10.4 million in investments at the end of 2020, newly-released records show.  That sum — including $2.3 million in unrealized gains — was held in various mutual funds.  Fauci's 2020 financial disclosure was released publicly Friday night [1/14/2022] by Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), who Fauci had called a "moron" after he inquired into Fauci's financial disclosures during a Senate proceeding Tuesday.  "Dr. Fauci was completely dishonest about his financial disclosures being open to the public," Marshall said in a statement.  "Dr. Fauci must be held accountable to all Americans who have been suing and requesting for this information but don't have the power of a Senate office to ask for it."

Australia has decided to 'let Covid rip.' Is that a good idea?  As 2021 drew to a close, many Australians were cautiously optimistic that the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic was behind them.  The country had surpassed ambitious vaccine targets, meaning its rolling lockdowns could cease, both internal and international borders would reopen, and as Prime Minister Scott Morrison declared, it was now possible to "live with this virus."  But as Australia moved to change course on its pandemic strategy, the highly transmissible omicron variant hit.  In just over a month, cases have risen from around 1,000 a day to more than 100,000 a day.  Hallmarks of the pandemic that Australia mostly avoided began to emerge.  The health system is buckling.  Many supermarket shelves are bare as sick workers stay home.  Despite this surge in cases, most Australian states and territories are holding the line and allowing the virus to circulate in their communities, which critics have labeled the "let it rip" approach.

A Danish newspaper decided to finally ask questions.  Sadly, most American journalists won't.  A Danish newspaper has finally figured out that it should not be a propaganda arm of the government and should have always asked questions about COVID instead of just repeating what they were told like puppets.  It is sad that most American journalists continue to be propagandists pushing the fear agenda to get the public to submit to dictatorial edicts. [...] No matter how often Dr. Fauci and the CDC have spread misinformation to the public, most of the media has treated their statements as infallible and have sought to silence and disparage anyone who dares disagree.

Do the Omicron numbers mean what we think they mean?  A coronavirus infection isn't what it once was.  Studies suggest that, compared with Delta, Omicron is a third to half as likely to send someone to the hospital; by some estimates, the chance that an older, vaccinated person will die of COVID is now lower than the risk posed by the seasonal flu.  And yet the variant is exacting a punishing toll — medical, social, economic.  (Omicron still presents a major threat to people who are unvaccinated.)  The United States is recording, on average, more than eight hundred thousand coronavirus cases a day, three times last winter's peak.  Given the growing use of at-home tests, this official count greatly underestimates the true number of infections.  We don't know how many rapid tests are used each day, or what proportion return positive, rendering unreliable traditional metrics, such as a community's test-positivity rate, which is used to guide policy on everything from school closures to sporting events.

Advantage:  Djokovic.  [Scroll down]  Yet they continue to push, nay, demand that young men get a vaccine known to be only moderately effective in stopping transmission or contraction of the virus.  It's continued to be forcibly imposed on young people and athletes who have very little chance of death or even serious complications from the infection itself.  Australia, which requires anyone arriving from abroad to be vaccinated originally granted Novak Djokovic a visa to play in the Australian Open based on an exemption — having acquired natural immunity from having contracted COVID twice.  Then the Australian government determined to make an example of him.  They determined that his mere presence in the country constituted an incitement of dissent against the vaccine.  So Australia's immigration minister revoked Djokovic's visa effectively throwing him out of the Open and the Country.

Politicizing COVID-19 From the Start.  From the moment COVID-19 appeared, the pandemic became inseparable from politics.  Political frenzy was inevitable since the SARS-CoV-2 virus may have escaped from a level-4 security virology lab in Wuhan, China.  The rapid-fire spread soon threatened to indict the Chinese communist government for nearly destroying the world economy and killing millions.  Western elites, in response, feared that their own lucrative investments in China would be jeopardized by such disclosures — and so acted accordingly in defending Beijing.  Nonetheless, one scenario that remains intriguing is that the escaped virus was birthed by gain-of-function research scientists, overseen by elements of the Chinese communist military.  Worse, the lab was given subsidies by U.S. health authorities, routed through third parties.  Hiding all of that damaging information warped government policy and media coverage.  Belatedly, a panicked China shut down all domestic travel in and out of Wuhan — but not flights abroad to Western Europe and the United States.  The rest is history.

It's Time to Admit Failure in the War Against COVID.  Israel has been at the forefront of the unconventional/politically oriented means of combatting a respiratory virus.  Despite nearly 90% of the adult population being fully vaccinated, with vaccines originally touted as nearly 100% effective in preventing COVID-19 infection, Israel is currently experiencing the highest rate of COVID-19 infections since the pandemic began.  There is no magic solution in sight except ultimate herd immunity which the latest variant, omicron, may well bring about.  The same is true for virtually every Western country, including the United States, that has followed the same procedures and protocols.  Having, for political reasons, stupidly committed to doing the impossible, defeating or eradicating a respiratory virus, it is time to admit failure.  That's assuming the bureaucrats and governing elites, in their hubris, are capable of doing so.  If not, then the citizenry must say 'no' and do it for them.

Turning the Tables on Our Tyrants.  [Scroll down]  The government's substantial success in forcing society to obey its demands has stemmed from its strategically patient yet endlessly advancing agenda to replace freedom with tyranny.  Mandates did not come all at once; they came bit by bit.  It's just a couple weeks in lockdown.  It's just a mask.  It's just a couple months of remote learning. [...] Likewise, instead of forcing people into compliance all at once, mandates have targeted small subparts of the larger population, while the majority not affected by those orders have remained relatively silent.  One age group at a time has been pushed toward accepting mRNA treatment — from the very oldest in society to the workers to the schoolchildren, and now finally to the newborns.  One profession at a time has been coerced into submitting to the government's demands — from the military to federal workers to health care workers to third-party federal contractors to public unions to private unions to companies with over a hundred workers and, of course, one day soon, to all workers generally.  The exceptions to this "long march" through the professions have only served to show which workers still hold enough political clout to buck (at least temporarily) the authoritarians' demands.  Our armed forces, it turns out, have so little leverage that no exceptions have been made for their conscientious objections.  Postal workers, public school teachers (the same ones hypocritically clamoring for their young students to be injected with mRNA treatments), and other traditional interest group voting blocs for the Democrat party have fared much better.

COVID hysteria is so yesterday.  A new era has arrived.  Here's what it means:  when the government isn't trusted, people stop believing it.  When people stop believing the government, they stop obeying it.  When they stop obeying it, government becomes at best an annoyance, like your wacky old uncle that no one pays attention to.  Like Joe Biden. [...] If the Wall Street Journal's editorial page is any measure, Biden has succeeded, although not in the way he hoped to.  He has succeeded in getting people to stop obsessing about COVID.  [Daniel] Henninger's column sums up the issue:  "People are flying the pandemic white flag:  They've stopped caring what the government, the politicians or 'science' is telling them about Covid."

Your body, my choice.  [Scroll down]  The CDC admitted this week that 75% of people who die from COVID had four or more comorbidities — four, as in, they were already on the way out anyway, and COVID showed up and finished the job.  We already knew this two years ago, before people were locked out of their jobs for months, before we saddled posterity with astronomical debts to pay for locking people out of their jobs, before we forced healthy people to take an experimental vaccine that gave them heart attacks, before we allowed corporations to censor us on Facebook and Twitter over it, before doctors lost their jobs for telling us about their own practice, before medical professionals were fired en masse for not trusting the medicine, before neighbors began ratting each other out for birthday parties and Christmas, before we threatened the whole supply chain, and millions of people in Central and South America ended up starving.  We already knew two years ago that COVID kills off the obese, but we locked gym rats out of gyms anyway.

Democrats Support Punishing the Unvaccinated.  [Scroll down]  78%, of Democrats support COVID vaccine mandates, which would force people out of their jobs if they choose not to receive a vaccination.  Three-quarters have a favorable opinion of Dr. Fauci.  A majority of Republicans and unaffiliated voters oppose the mandate and have a dim view of President Biden's chief medical advisor.  In addition, a majority of Democrats support harsher measures for those who decide not to receive a vaccine that can't prevent transmission or illness: [...] If you want to know how far some of these biosecurity state cheerleaders will go, 29% would agree to take your children if you refuse to get the Fauci ouchie.  Oddly, only 54% of black Americans are fully vaccinated, but 63% support Biden's vaccine mandate in the poll.  The survey notes that President Biden's strongest supporters are most likely to endorse his COVID policies and the harshest punishments for the unvaccinated.

COVID vaccines funder Bill Gates not impressed with their performance, predicts 'yearly shots'.  COVID-19 vaccines allow breakthrough infections.  Their duration "appears to be limited."  On top of that, wealthy countries caused harm by bidding up vaccine prices to hoard the "limited supply" available last year.  These are not criticisms from a purported purveyor of COVID misinformation.  They came from the biggest private funder of global health research.  Bill Gates, whom the National Institutes of Health called a "superhero" for his eponymous foundation's lavish health spending, frowned on the results of COVID vaccine research and distribution practices in a short Twitter chat Tuesday.  "We need vaccines that prevent re-infection and have many years of duration," he told chat host Devi Sridhar, chair of global public health at the Edinburgh University Medical School.

From what I've seen, at least a million other people would love to be deported from Australia.
Novak Djokovic Faces Deportation As Visa Revoked Again.  Tennis champ Novak Djokovic faces deportation again after the Australian government on Friday revoked his visa for a second time — just three days before the start of the Australian Open.  Immigration Minister Alex Hawke said he used his ministerial discretion to revoke the 34-year-old Serb's visa, saying the world tennis number one may pose a health risk because he is unvaccinated.  Unlike last week — when Djokovic was forced to spend four nights in an immigration detention hotel — the star was not detained Friday.  However, he has to report to immigration officials at 8 a.m.  Saturday ahead of a deportation court hearing later that day.

Biden threatens to STOP Arizona getting $170 million in COVID relief funds if they keeping telling students not to wear masks in schools.  President Biden threatened to hold up $170 million in coronavirus relief funds for Arizona in a showdown with the state over masks in schools.  The Copper State announced earlier it would use the cash in a way that discouraged mask wearing in schools.  Arizona was awarded $4.2 billion of the $350 billion program for states under the American Rescue Plan which allocated money to cities, states and counties and allowed them to spend the cash mostly as they saw fit, with few restrictions.  In a letter from the Treasury Department, Arizona's GOP Gov. Doug Ducey was told his state has 60 days to redirect the funding towards its intended purpose, mitigating the spread of coronavirus.  If Arizona does not cease or change its programs, the Treasury could begin the process of recouping the money.

Biden administration to launch website for free 500 million COVID-19 testing kits on Wednesday.  The Biden administration on Wednesday will launch a website where Americans can order up to four free COVID-19 testing kits per person, according to a senior administration official.  The tests, part of the Biden administration's purchase of 500 million tests last month to help tackle a record surge in infections, will be available at COVIDTest.gov and mailed to homes within 7-12 days through the U.S. Postal Service, according to the official, who briefed reporters on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss details of the announcement.  President Joe Biden announced earlier this week the administration would double its order to 1 billion at-home COVID-19 tests amid a shortage of tests nationwide as U.S. cases spike.

Passenger Keeps A Single French Fry In His Mouth Like A Cigarette Aboard Flight So He Doesn't Have To Wear A Mask.  It's not bad enough you have to wear a chin diaper in the airport for 2 to 3 hours, then you have to wear it aboard the already oxygen-depleted airplane for hours, just to land and keep it on at the next airport until you finally get out.  Well, not all heroes wear capes, some dangle french fries from their lips, exposing a nice loophole to the entire mask madness during travel.  This guy kept a lone fry in his mouth for over an hour and a half until the plane landed.  [Video clip]

White House Calls on Businesses to Ignore Supreme Court Decision on Vaccination and Force the Vaccine Mandate Regardless of Constitutional Merit.  Not to be deterred by such pesky inconveniences as a Supreme Court decision, immediately after the high court ruled the vaccine mandate was unconstitutional federal overreach — the White House told employers to enforce the vaccine mandate anyway.  White House Spokesperson Jennifer Psaki said the Biden administration would "not be deterred" by the Supreme Court decision, and all employers should immediately continue to "initiate vaccination requirements."

After SCOTUS' Hit, Companies are Ditching Their Vaccine Mandates Like a Bad Habit.  Thanks to the United States Supreme Court's epic hit, Dementia Joe's OSHA vaccine mandate has been struck down.  But even as far back as December, the handwriting was on the wall.  After the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals issued the preliminary injunction on the OSHA mandate back in November, companies like General Electric and Union Pacific decided to put a pause on their push to force-vaccinate employees.  Others have since followed suit. [...] Enough with the scare tactics, as everybody and their mother knows that omicron is the closest variant to the common cold.  In the world of COVID, while cases and hospitalizations may be surging, deaths are not rising.  The Biden administration has lost its cudgel, and the media has lost its narrative.

Supreme Court Blocks Biden's Vaccine Mandate for Private Businesses.  The Supreme Court has blocked the Biden administration's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for private businesses, but has decided to allow a separate regulation that requires health care workers to get a vaccine to take effect.  In a 6 [to] 3 ruling on Jan. 13, the court halted the mandate for all private employers with 100 or more workers, ruling that the states and companies that challenged the rule were likely to succeed.  Biden administration officials had argued that the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) of 1970 gave them the authority to impose the mandate, but a majority of the justices disagreed.  "Applicants are likely to succeed on the merits of their claim that the Secretary lacked authority to impose the mandate.  Administrative agencies are creatures of statute.  They accordingly possess only the authority that Congress has provided.  The Secretary has ordered 84 million Americans to either obtain a COVID-19 vaccine or undergo weekly medical testing at their own expense.  This is no 'everyday exercise of federal power.'  It is instead a significant encroachment into the lives — and health — of a vast number of employees," the majority slip opinion reads.

The OSHA COVID-19 Mandate has been defeated.  Today, the Supreme Court stayed the implementation of the Occupational Health and Safety Administration's (OSHA) COVID-19 vaccine mandate, stating:  ["]Applicants now seek emergency relief from this Court, arguing that OSHA's mandate exceeds its statutory authority and is otherwise unlawful.  Agreeing that applicants are likely to prevail, we grant their applications and stay the rule.["]  You can read the full opinion here.  Justices Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan dissented — meaning that Justices Roberts, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Barrett, Alito, and Gorsuch voted in favor of staying the OSHA Mandate.  The effect of the stay is that the OSHA Mandate is essentially struck.  It's over.  It won't be implemented.

Unpacking Supreme Court Justices' Reasoning in Vaccine Mandate Decisions.  For nearly 100 million American workers waiting breathlessly for an answer, a Thursday Supreme Court decision delivered good news for many, although not all.  In a rare late-day release of opinions, the Supreme Court issued its rulings in a pair of federal vaccine mandate cases that went to the court on an emergency basis.  In the first case — anticipated to have applied to approximately 84 million employees — and by a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court in National Federation of Independent Business v. OSHA stayed the implementation of the vaccination mandate that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration had issued in November 2021, requiring all businesses with 100 or more employees (with very limited exceptions) to direct their employees be vaccinated against COVID-19 or wear a mask at work and provide weekly negative tests for the disease.  In an unsigned opinion, the majority concluded that the government was not likely to prevail on its argument that OSHA possesses the authority to issue the vaccination mandate.  It wrote that neither OSHA nor Congress had ever imposed such a requirement and that, "although Congress has enacted significant legislation addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, it has declined to enact any measure similar to what OSHA has promulgated here."

Supreme Court votes 6-3 to block Biden's vaccine mandates for private firms in huge blow to White House COVID plan.  President Biden urged businesses to bring in vaccine mandates on their own and pushed states to 'do the right thing' after the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to block his sweeping rules on private companies in a crushing blow to his pandemic response.  The high court did however allow a vaccine mandate for employees at health care facilities receiving federal dollars to go into effect.  Twenty-seven states had petitioned the Supreme Court to issue a stay on the rule while it is battled out in the judicial system.  It's the latest setback in a devastating 48 hours for Biden, who failed to get enough support among Senate Democrats to kill the filibuster and pass voting rights legislation.

GE suspends Covid vaccine and testing rules after Supreme Court blocks Biden mandate.  General Electric suspended its Covid vaccine and testing requirement on Friday after the Supreme Court blocked the Biden administration's mandate, a company spokesperson told CNBC.  GE, which had174,000 employees at the end of 2020, has encouraged its employees to get vaccinated, the spokesperson said.  The Supreme Court's conservative majority, in a 6-3 ruling, called the Biden administration's requirements a "blunt instrument" that "draws no distinctions based on industry or risk of exposure to Covid-19."  President Joe Biden, in a statement after the court's decision, called on companies to voluntarily implement the vaccine and testing rules.

The dangerous assumption people are making about the COVID shots.  An awful lot of people are making a very dangerous assumption about the COVID-19 jabs: that the manufacture of them is pristine.  Everyone seems to tacitly accept that every vial of a given jab is perfect and identical to every other vial of the same thing and that it is delivered to the injection site in perfect condition.  I don't think so.  There are press reports of localized clusters of bad jab reactions, such as a huge spike in stillbirths in Scotland. [...] Scotland is not the only place.  The U.S. has the same issues in some areas.  Japan had some real issues with the jab, and there was no way to talk about it without admitting there was a "bad batch." [...] Ingredients that constitute the jab itself come from many sources, but it is clear to everyone that these jab vials were produced in a big hurry.  Among other logistical issues, for two of the RNA-based jabs, the completed vials needed to be shipped at -75 degrees Celsius.

Argentinian Journalist Hit The Floor Like A Slab Of Meat During Report From COVID Testing Station.  This noon there was a tense moment on the air of Channel 9.  The mobile player Carlos Ferrara was covering possible good news in this context:  the queue at the testing center located in the Teatro Colón decreased.  The phone came out flawless but the unexpected happened at the end.  Claudio Perez, driver Telenueve (Channel 9), I was already greeting him to end the mobile.  To those farewell greetings the chronicler's response was "Sorry Claudio, sorry," and at the same time, a bang was heard on the microphone.  So far, he was off-camera.  Believing that it was an interruption to add some data, the driver gave him his place at the same time that he asked him to close the mobile due to a time issue.  "What happened?" the driver asked him in a hurry from the floor.  And in a few seconds, the camera turns and focuses on Carlos Ferrara lying on the ground, face down, with the microphone still in his hand.  [Video clip]

Make-a-Wish Denies Wish to 4-Year-Old Cancer Patient Over Vaccination Status.  The one-size-fits-all medical tyranny of forced vaccinations for Covid-19 — which does nothing to stop the spread of the disease — has claimed another victim.  The Make-A-Wish Foundation is refusing to grant 4-year-old cancer patient Rocco DiMaggio's wish to go to Disneyworld — all because he is not vaccinated.  Rocco and his two-year-old brother are not yet even eligible for the jab.

Danish Newspaper Apologizes For Publishing Official COVID Narratives Without Questioning Them.  In August, Germany's top newspaper, Bild, apologized for the outlet's fear-driven Covid coverage — with special message to children, who were told "that they were going to murder their grandma."  Now, a newspaper in Denmark has publicly apologized for reporting government narratives surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic without questioning them.  "We failed," reads the article's headline from tabloid Ekstra Bladet, which goes on to admit that "For almost two years, we — the press and the population — have been almost hypnotically preoccupied with the authorities' daily coronavirus figures."

mRNA Co-Inventor, Dr. Robert Malone, says Documents Revealed Dr. Fauci 'Premeditated Manslaughter of Millions of People Coordinated at the Highest Levels'.  Newly released documents show that Dr. Death, Anthony Fauci, didn't just lie under oath to congress about a variety of things that lead up to the release of the coronavirus, but Fauci is already responsible for murdering millions!  Listen to one of the inventors of mRNA technology, Dr. Robert Malone, explain exactly what is in those documents and why it is so important Dr. Fauci is stopped and arrested before this gets any worse.  [Video clip]

U.K. government says vaccinated are dying at a rate 286% higher than unvaccinated.  The latest data from the British government shows a disturbing trend among the "fully vaccinated," who are very clearly dying at a significantly higher rate than the unvaccinated.  According to the figures, there are 286 percent more deaths occurring now among people who got jabbed for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) compared to people who left their immune systems and DNA alone.  Upwards of one million people have suffered serious injuries or died so far from the shots.  And this is a conservative estimate based on official government data, which is known to be underreported.

Supreme Court blocks COVID-19 vaccine-or-testing mandate for workplaces but lets medical rule stand.  The Supreme Court on Thursday halted enforcement of one of President Joe Biden's signature efforts to combat COVID-19, ruling that his administration doesn't have the authority to impose vaccine-or-testing requirements on employers that would have covered tens of millions of Americans.  The unsigned opinion, which came days after the justices heard arguments in the emergency appeal, marked the second time the nation's highest court unwound a pandemic policy of the Biden administration, again concluding that federal officials exceeded the power given to them by Congress.  The court blocked Biden's eviction moratorium in August, ruling that it also was an overreach.

Top NH Conservative Targeted by Child Services for Giving Son Ivermectin.  One of New Hampshire's leading political conservatives is fighting to keep his children from the state's child protection services agency after giving his 13-year-old son ivermectin.  JR Hoell is the founder of ReOpen NH, an activist group that criticizes COVID-19 vaccine mandates.  Hoell, who has also led public education reform efforts and promotes Second Amendment and homeschooling rights, told The Epoch Times that the New Hampshire Division of Children Youth and Family (DCYF) showed up at his doorstep on the night of Dec. 9 with an emergency ex parte order to take custody of his son.  "I want to go on the record as calling the DCYF a terrorist organization," Hoell told The Epoch Times, "they have no grounds to seek removal of my son from his home."

Legal group demands states end racist COVID-19 treatment policy, threatens lawsuit.  The health departments of New York state, Minnesota and Utah face potential lawsuits alleging they discriminate against White people by giving priority to select minorities for scarce COVID-19 treatments, part of a growing backlash nationwide against the race-based policy.  America First Legal, a conservative law group founded by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller, is demanding the states rescind their policies or face legal action for "blatant discrimination."  "What we are seeing popping up across the country is antithetical to everything we stand for as Americans," said Gene Hamilton, the group's general counsel.  "And while the allocation of medical treatment based on skin color is not something any American would expect to see in 2022, the American people should understand that this is just another example of the application of 'equity' by the woke and radical left."

Minnesota removes race as factor in rationing COVID-19 antibody treatment.  Minnesota has removed race as a preferential factor for determining which COVID-19 patients should receive scarce monoclonal antibodies, which are outpatient infusions that reduce the risk of severe illness and hospitalization.  Updated rationing guidance on Wednesday prioritizes infusions when they are in short supply for people who are immunocompromised or pregnant.  It also gives preference to people who are older or have underlying conditions that increase their risk for severe COVID-19, but it switched to a scoring system that no longer considers race.  State leaders had been planning revisions because of the scarcity of monoclonal antibodies that was exacerbated last month when providers stopped using two of three versions because they weren't effective against the omicron variant.  The policy switch occurred on the same day a conservative advocacy group, America First Legal, threatened to sue Minnesota and Utah, arguing that the states' racial preference policies were unfair.

A California pre-school is closed because two-year-olds won't wear masks.  [Scroll down]  I was unable to find recent information about the total number of small businesses that closed in California thanks to the state's utterly draconian COVID edicts, including forced student vaccinations with this experimental product.  As of the beginning of June 2021, a rough guesstimate was that almost 40% of small businesses permanently shut their doors.  Considering what the state has continued to inflict on its residents since then, I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that the final number is closer to 50%.  Here are a few more important facts:  Vaccines don't work to stop COVID's spread.  Omicron is not deadly, it attacks the fully vaccinated, most cases in America are now Omicron, and Omicron is peaking and ready to recede.  Regardless of the variant, children without serious comorbidities neither catch nor spread COVID. And one more fact:  Two-year-olds are not yet children; instead, they are still babies, and it's both cruel and futile to force a mask on these little ones.

Governor's office to Austin businesses:  Feel free to ignore mayor's latest orders.  Austin Mayor Steve Adler and Travis County Judge Andy Brown announced new orders aimed at businesses as the number of cases and hospitalizations from COVID-19 rise in central Texas.  The governor's office responded by reminding them that his executive order on mitigation mandates overrule their local orders.  Mayor Adler signed the new orders requiring businesses to post COVID-19 signage.  The orders are called "protecting customers and employees and preserving adequate workforce capacity orders."  All businesses are required to post generic mask and vaccine signage when Austin-Travis County is in Stages 3, 4, and 5.  Austin is in Stage 5 now.  Additional signage like this is also required.  The orders come with a $1,000 per day fine for non-compliance.  Police officers, the Austin Code Department, and the Austin Fire Marshal all have authority to enforce the orders.  Here's a thought — how about law enforcement deal with the rise in homicides in Austin instead of taking time to fine a local business for missing signage?

Republican Sen. Marshall plans to introduce 'Fauci Act' after doctor called him a 'moron'.  Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., is planning to introduce legislation named after Dr. Anthony Fauci after the nation's top infectious diseases expert made headlines for calling Marshall "a moron" on a hot mic earlier this week.  Marshall's bill, which will be titled the Financial Accountability for Uniquely Compensated Individuals (FAUCI) Act, will mandate that the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) provide a list of all confidential filers within the government whose financial disclosures are not public, as first reported by The Hill.  Fauci and Marshall sparred Tuesday on Capitol Hill when the senator asked about Fauci's financial interests.  In a letter to Fauci, Marshall cited a New York Post article in which a Fauci spokesperson was unable to produce the disclosures that Fauci claimed were public.  A Forbes article reported that Fauci's salary, stock, bond purchases and royalty payments for this year and last year are not available to the public.

How Fauci has profited from the pandemic.  A Republican senator who grilled Dr Anthony Fauci over his financial disclosures — leading a frustrated Fauci to call him under his breath a 'moron' — has published the public health expert's federal records.  The records show that Fauci — the highest-paid federal employee, who earns more than President Joe Biden — and his wife, the top bioethicist at the National Institutes of Health, have a combined wealth of $10.4 million.  Fauci, 80, has lead the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984 and, if he continues until the end of Biden's term in 2024, will have made roughly $2.5 million as the president's chief medical advisor.  He earns $434,312 a year as head of the NIAID, where Biden's salary is $400,000.

Government Control Led to Lack of Monoclonal Antibodies, Says Medical Supplies CEO.  The head of a medical supplies company involved in the distribution and supply of monoclonal antibodies across southeastern and northeastern regions of the nation, told NTD in a Jan. 12 interview that government takeover of the monoclonal antibody supply chain has exacerbated backlogs and shortages.  "The way the products are being distributed right now, relying on the government to determine who gets what, that process can be very lengthy in terms of time," Dealmed CEO Michael Einhorn said.  As a result, physicians are reporting "surpluses in certain areas, not enough in other areas" which has fueled frustrations when critical patients are not receiving antibodies for COVID-19 infections.  While it's unclear how the monoclonal antibodies are being rationed among states, Einhorn said that "commercialization" of these products should be allowed, so that infusion centers that need them can order in products based on "patient volume."

DC Mayor Pushes Proof of Vaccine, but Members of Congress Push Back.  D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser is the latest in a string of left-wing mayors to institute a proof-of-vaccination mandate.  Starting on Saturday, anyone 12 or older who wants to eat at a restaurant, go to a concert, or see a movie in the nation's capital will have to present proof of vaccination against COVID-19.  Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., is one of 19 lawmakers to sign a letter asking Bowser to reverse her decision.  Norman thinks Bowser's mandate will have adverse consequences for people living in or visiting the District of Columbia.

Sen. Ron Johnson Demands Details Of DOD Investigation Into COVID-19 Origins.  Republican Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson is requesting information about a Department of Defense investigation into the origins of COVID-19, following the recent republication of a report written by a Marine working at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).  The report, which details a proposal to apply gain-of-function techniques to the study of bat-based coronaviruses, alleges that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) funded the research through a sub-grant to the non-profit EcoHealth Alliance after DARPA rejected it.  The report, reportedly written by a Marine and submitted to the DOD Office of the Inspector General in August 2021, also alleges that SARS-CoV-2 was created at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  Its allegations have not been verified.

US Army pulls six commanders from active duty for refusing COVID vaccine.  The United States Army reprimanded six active-duty commanders for refusing to comply with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for all military ranks.  The punishments come as the Army has increased its bonus to join the force to $50,000 because the virus has made it more difficult to recruit in schools and at public events, and the competition for quality workers has intensified as young people weigh their options.  The Army did not specify the rank of the punished officers, though two battalion commanders were among those who were relieved of those duties.

Biden to deploy 1,000 military personnel to combat omicron at hospitals.  President Biden is reportedly planning to deploy 1,000 military medical personnel to six states as part of the omicron plan he will outline on Thursday.  The personnel will help triage patients at hospitals in Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio and Rhode Island as the country sees more than 780,000 infections per day and hospitalizations reach an all-time peak, according to The New York Times.  The deployment adds to the 800 federal personnel, including 350 military doctors and nurses, who were sent to two dozen states after omicron was detected around Thanksgiving.

Five Aussie Cops Arrest Elderly Woman, Put Her In Paddy Wagon For Not Showing Her Vaccine Passport.  An elderly woman has been dramatically arrested by five police at a popular cafe after refusing to show her vaccination certificate.  Footage shows the moment police arrived at the Dayman General Store in Queensland's Hervey Bay -- before a woman was seen rushing out past officers.  The video then shows the large squad of officers arresting the 46-year-old out the front of the store as she shrieked 'you can't arrest me'.  She was bundled into the back of the police car, taken to the watchhouse, charged, and fined $1,300.  [Video clip]

The Editor says...
Fact check:  A 46-year-old woman is middle-aged, not "elderly."

If you are a vaccine company executive, it's time to slam the brakes.  [Scroll down]  Fast-forward to 2022.  This time around the myth of the truly innocent victim is not a myth.  The hundreds of millions of people who have received shots of mRNA/LNP and DNA/AAV Covid vaccines had no real idea what they were taking.  They did so on the urging of the vaccine companies and health authorities, who told them that in doing so they would protect themselves and their families and end the Covid epidemic.  The statements were public.  Many are less than a year old.  They cannot be suppressed or memory-holed, no matter how hard anyone wants to try.  Every single one of those statements has proven wrong — so wrong that the companies, which are at much greater legal risk than the public health authorities — no longer even try to defend them.

Biden Administration Making Lists of Religious Vaccine Objectors.  A tiny administrative agency in the District of Columbia announced a new policy Tuesday that will likely serve as a model for a whole-of-government push to assemble lists of Americans who object on religious grounds to a COVID-19 vaccine.  The Pretrial Services Agency for the District of Columbia — a federal independent entity that assists officers in the District of Columbia courts in formulating release recommendations and providing supervision and services to defendants awaiting trial — announced a new records system that will store the names and "personal religious information" of all employees who make "religious accommodation requests for religious exception from the federally mandated vaccination requirement."  The announcement does not explain why the agency needs to create this list except to say that it will "assist the Agency in the collecting, storing, dissemination, and disposal of employee religious exemption request information collected and maintained by the Agency."  In other words, the list will help the agency make a list.  The announcement also does not say what the agency will do with this information after it has decided an employee's religious accommodation request.

A Pandemic of Testing.  [Scroll down]  I want to share with you the hidden pandemic that no one is addressing.  It is the pandemic of group A beta hemolytic streptococcus, otherwise known as strep throat.  It is estimated that 5 [to] 15% of all hospitalizations have strep.  A similar proportion of ICU admissions and death suffer from this same malady.  It is probably no coincidence that roughly 5 [to] 15% of illegal aliens crossing the border bring this disease with them.  The list could go on: car accidents, homelessness, drug addiction, murderers all have a 5 [to] 15% chance of having strep.  Why do we not pay more attention to this?  Why have the government and medicine in general let us down?  For years, 10% of all deaths have been strep-positive.  That is roughly 250,000 to 300,000 per year.  Well, it's because 5 [to] 15% of the population carries strep, symptom free.  There is a difference between being infected with strep and having a positive strep test.  It is an important diagnostic and treatment distinction made on a routine basis in medicine.  Yet we still have not differentiated dying with COVID from dying because of COVID.  We have not differentiated a positive test from an actual disease.  This is insane, and yet we are basing our policy decisions on such a lack of distinction.

Booster Bust:  Medical Establishment Changes Its Mind.  There is a tectonic shift underway in the medico-scientific establishment: they are starting to walk back boosters.  The first indication of this dramatic change of attitude came from the United Kingdom last week. [...] This was a truly startling development since until a week before medical authorities world over were speaking about the need for the fourth (and even subsequent) shots.  In fact, some countries like Britain and Israel have already started their administration.  This sudden change of course indicates that there is something in the data that has the powers that be seriously worried.  When it came to the Covid vaccines, the medical authorities have displayed an astonishing level of tolerance for side effects and collateral damage.  So much so that they were even willing to let some children die unnecessarily for the sake of their vaccine agenda.  Their abrupt reversal indicates that they must have recognized that there is something very dangerous in dealing out successive doses of the vaccines.

Our Bizarre Devotion to COVID Vaccines.  I was looking through the hospitalization data on the Johns Hopkins site.  As a former critical care specialist, two things are curious to me.  Number one is that the total number of ICU beds in the country has fallen from 91,000 in January 2021 to 80,000 now.  I'm sure that a portion of that decrease is due to acute illness of ICU personnel, given Omicron's infectivity, and vaccine avoidance.  I do wonder, however, how many of those beds were lost due to the firing of ICU staff due to their vaccine status.  The second strange data point is that in the U.S. as a whole or Pennsylvania in particular, there are said to be roughly 20% of ICU beds unoccupied.  In my experience over the years, intensive care units tend to be full, and we accept new admissions only by transferring out the least ill.  If I was running a 20 bed ICU and had four open beds, I'd be feeling pretty comfortable.  Maybe this data is wrong, but if it's not, this is hardly a crisis.

The Branch Covidians Are Basically the Same as the Heaven's Gate Cultists (Except Not as Nice).  I have HBO Max.  I love it. [...] I recently binged Heaven's Gate:  The Cult of Cults and could not believe the similarities between them and the true believers of the cult I've come to call the Branch Covidians.  I'm not talking about the people who are going along with the regulations because they're trying to survive, nor the ones who got the vaccine to keep a job, nor even the ones who don a mask to go grocery shopping.  The Branch Covidians are much more insidious than that.  These are the people for whom it is not enough to slavishly conform with every directive ("I put my cloth mask over my N95!") despite COVID having a 99% survival rate.  No, these people demand that everyone else also conforms to every dictatorial decree that comes down from on high like a message from God.

German police use Covid-tracking data to hunt down witnesses to man's death by tracking restaurant customers' movements through vaccine passports.  German police have been criticised for using Covid-tracking data to trace contacts from bars and restaurants as part of an investigation.  The case, stemming from November last year, began after the fatal fall of a man while leaving a restaurant in the western city of Mainz.  Police seeking possible witnesses made use of data from an app known as Luca, which was designed for users to register time spent in restaurants and taverns to track the possible spread of coronavirus.

When it comes to COVID, experts just want us to listen and obey.  The experts have informed the American people that masks protect against COVID, that vaccines are needed to protect the masked against COVID, that there is nothing to worry about in the fact that new variants of COVID are overwhelmingly infecting the vaccinated, and that it is a mistake to believe that COVID vaccinations block COVID infection.  The experts are starting to realize that none of this makes any sense, but they forge ahead trying to get their message out.  At this point, their message seems to be that we should squash any qualms we have about the expertise of those in power and blindly obey whatever diktat they choose to hand down.  What is particularly distressing to the experts is that Americans are starting to ignore their dire warnings, their contradictory rules, and their unreasonable mandates.  The White House is being accused of bungling the message, as if all that is needed is a better explanation for why people should let their lives be ruined with an endless pandemic of the sniffles.  Masks, mandates, tests, isolation, shuttering of businesses, an end to travel — these things would not be a problem if the public would just heed the experts.

Cannabis compounds block the virus responsible for COVID-19: Study.  Researchers from Oregon State University announced that certain compounds with cannabis are able to block the virus responsible for COVID-19 from penetrating human cells.  The study, led by Richard van Breemen of Oregon State's Global Hemp Innovation Center, College of Pharmacy, and Linus Pauling Institute, was published Monday in the Journal of Natural Products.  A pair of cannabinoid acids were found to bond with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and block a vital part of the process that allows the virus to infect people, van Breemen said.

AP instructs editors:  Start downplaying case counts in our stories about COVID.  If this is their way of trying to hide the bad COVID news from the public in order to help Democrats, they're waaaaaay too late. [...] When tests are scarce and there's a meaningful number of "COVID hospitalizations" that aren't really due to COVID, the numbers tell us less than they used to.  But I still pay attention to them for the simple reason that they remain our best indicator of the magnitude of the surge, however imperfect they might be.  It's curious that a news agency would prefer to omit information entirely from its reports than include it with caveats about what the numbers aren't able to capture.

Veritas Documents Reveal DC Bureaucrats Had Evidence Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine Were Effective in Treating COVID, but Hid This From [the] Public.  There have now been 67 Ivermectin COVID-19 controlled studies that show a 67% improvement in COVID patients.  There have been 298 Hydroxychloroquine studies that show a 64% improvement in patients for COVID-19 patients.  Despite the science, Dr. Fauci and the medical elites have blocked the use of these effective treatments for coronavirus patients.  Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA vaccines, accused Dr. Fauci and others of lying and causing the death of over 500,000 Americans by preventing HCQ and Ivermectin, and other treatments from COVID-19 patients.  Dr. Malone is right.  It is well documented that Dr. Fauci and top US doctors conspired to disqualify and condemn hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment.  Millions died as a result of this.

A Return To Sanity — NCAA [will] Allow Those [with] COVID "Herd Immunity" To Participate In Sporting Activities.  Starting from day one of the first case of COVID-19 reaching the United States, Epidemiologists have investigated and tracked the virus in order to determine how to control or stop the spread or prevent it from happening again.  Often called "Disease Detectives", Epidemiologists search for the cause of disease, identify people who are at risk.  As the number of cases and deaths climbed former President Donald Trump's White House Coronavirus Task Force was asked to formulate a plan to combat the "pandemic".  For some unknown reason, Dr. Fauci and the team minimized the benefits of natural immunity when considering what draconian measures to recommend to the President.  Natural immunity is the antibody protection your body creates against a germ once you've been infected with it.  Natural immunity varies according to the person and the germ.  For example, people who have had measles are not likely to get it again, but this is not the case for every disease.

Athletes Who Had COVID Will Be Considered 'Fully Vaccinated,' NCAA Says in New Guidelines.  The NCAA on Thursday [1/6/2022] released its new COVID-19 guidance for winter sports, and the guidance contains some important news.  As ESPN reports, the NCAA's COVID-19 Medical Advisory Group updated its definition of "fully vaccinated" to account for various new vaccinations, boosters, and immunity factors.  "Fully vaccinated individuals now include those within two months of receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, five months of receiving the Pfizer vaccine series or six months of receiving the Moderna vaccine series;" reports ESPN staff writer Jeff Borzello, "and individuals who are beyond the aforementioned timeline and have received the booster vaccine."  But perhaps the biggest development came in the following line.  "Individuals within 90 days of a documented COVID-19 infection fall within the equivalent of 'fully vaccinated.'"

Another Day, Another Pro Soccer Player Has Heart Attack And Dies On The Pitch, This Time In Brazil At Age 24.  Brazilian footballer Alex Apolinario has died aged 24 after having a cardiac arrest and collapsing during a match on Sunday [1/9/2022].  He was playing for Portuguese third-tier side FC Alverca against Uniao de Almeirim when he lost consciousness and fell to the ground in the 27th minute of the game.  He was said to be stable on Sunday night.  But his club confirmed the tragic news of his death on Thursday.  [Video clip]

Supreme Court Does Joe Biden's Dirty Work by Delaying Ruling on Vaccine Mandate.  Joe Biden's vaccine mandate for companies with 100 or more employees officially went into effect on Monday and companies are scrambling to figure out how to force employees to comply.  Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is sitting on its hands, refusing to rule, and compelling employers to enforce Biden's totalitarian mandate.

Latest UK Health Data Shows Vaccinated Deaths Higher than Unvaccinated Deaths in the Last Three Months!  The latest official health data from the British government shows that "fully vaccinated" individuals are not experiencing the robust protection against hospitalization or death that they were promised, but rather have alarmingly been contracting the virus, getting hospitalized, and even dying at a much higher number than the unvaccinated have been over the past few months.  As of December 5th, the vaccinated have accounted for a whopping 4 of every 5 total Covid-19 deaths in England since August 16th, 2021, according to The UK Health Security Agency's Covid data.

Proof of vaccination or negative test required at Twin Cities establishments serving food, beverage.  Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and St.  Paul Mayor Melvin Carter announced Wednesday a temporary policy for establishments serving indoor food or beverages. [...] The policy, which applies for licensed businesses at which food or drink is served indoors, will require customers to either show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative PCR or antigen test taken within 72 hours of the visit.

Don't use this at-home COVID test, FDA warns.  It could give you a false positive.  As the coronavirus omicron wave sweeps across the country, testing centers can become busy and you might be looking for an at-home test as an alternative.  But with variety of testing kits on the market, the Food and Drug Administration is now warning of a brand that could give inaccurate results.  "Stop using the LuSys Laboratories COVID-19 Antigen Test (Nasal/Saliva) and the LuSys Laboratories COVID-19 IgG/IgM Antibody Test," the agency urged on Jan. 11 in a news release.  Both versions have a "high risk of false results" and are believed to have been distributed as at-home testing kits and for lab use, according to the FDA.  However, they were never "authorized, cleared, or approved" by the agency for U.S. distribution.  These tests might also be sold under names including Luscient Diagnostics, Vivera Pharmaceuticals and EagleDx.

How about a Nasal Wash to Treat COVID?  As with most viral respiratory illnesses, the primary entry point into the human body is through the nose.  Once in the nasal passages, viruses propagate exponentially on nasal mucous membranes. [...] Probably the most transparently wrong choice that our federal government/CDC/Dr. Fauci/mainstream media made during the past two years has been the desire to shut off, and even demonize, discussions about therapeutic options to treat COVID-19.  They did this so we would focus instead on the vaccine as the end-all and be-all "cure." [...] Part of the reason for all the blow-back from the public about how this plague has been handled is the irrational demonization and politization of available treatment options.  We'll never forget the ridicule President Trump received from the mainstream media when he suggested that gargling with a type of bleach could slow down transmission of COVID-19 and even might shorten the illness.  It turns out that some dentists have been using sodium hypochlorite for many years for oral pathogens, and it helps!

If limiting the unvaxxed is wise, what about limiting fat people?  [Scroll down]  Anyway, "There are only three reasons to leave the home now, not five," said Northern Territory chief minister Michael Gunner last Monday, explaining the COVIDian establishment of (dark) religion.  "Work is not a reason to leave the home for the unvaccinated," he continued, elaborating on the limitations.  "The chief health officer has also determined that restriction of movement is critical right now and that one hour of exercise for the next four days is not essential."  This is despite the fact that most coronavirus transmission occurs indoors and that adequate sunlight exposure reduces one's chance of infection and serious illness. [...] Gunner is the poster boy for why insurrection was invented.  He's also quite dull, incorrectly claiming that the MTA-resistant are at "greater risk" of catching the China virus.  He further stated that such people are more likely to require medical care, and this concern — that the MTA-resistant will clog up hospitals — is currently a major justification for compelling the jab now that many health authorities (e.g., Fauci) have confessed that the shot doesn't prevent SARS-CoV-2 transmission and contraction.  But consider the implications of the underlying principle, which is:  "You have no right to make a life choice that increases the probability you'll strain the medical system."

Fauci Was Told Privately by Key Scientists That COVID-19 Natural Origin Was 'Highly Unlikely,' Newly Unredacted Emails Confirm.  Top U.S. health officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, scrambled in early 2020 to respond to public reporting of a potential connection between COVID-19 and the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.  This response, which included a secret Feb. 1, 2020, teleconference, was loosely detailed in previously released and heavily redacted emails.  Those emails strongly suggested that Fauci and a small group of top scientists sought to promote the natural origin theory, despite having evidence and internal expert opinions that pointed to the possibility of a leak from the Wuhan lab.  Unredacted versions of some of the emails made public by lawmakers on Jan. 11 further confirm this.  The newly unredacted emails, released by House Oversight Committee Republicans, confirm and illustrate a pattern of lies and coverup.  From the emails, it appears the effort was spearheaded by Fauci himself but also involved his boss, recently retired National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director Dr. Francis Collins, as well as Jeremy Farrar, the head of the British Wellcome Trust.

US Military Report States COVID-19 Was Created by a US-Funded EcoHealth Alliance Program at Wuhan Institute of Virology.  As we previously reported, on Monday night Project Veritas released a new report announcing that they'd obtained US military documents proving that Dr. Anthony Fauci had lied to Congress and, more specifically, "never-before-seen documents regarding the origins of COVID-19, gain of function research, vaccines, potential treatments which have been suppressed, and the government's effort to conceal all of this."

New documents reveal early beliefs that SARS-CoV-2 was engineered.  Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, NIAID Director Anthony Fauci and NIH Director Francis Collins have decried the theory that the virus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology as a conspiracy theory.  Back in March 2020, Collins said claims that COVID-19 was engineered in a lab were "outrageous."  He pointed to a new study that "debunks such claims by providing scientific evidence that this novel coronavirus arose naturally."  Notably, one of the study's authors, Kristian Anderson, had previously informed Fauci that some features of the virus "look engineered."  Never to be outdone, in May 2020, Fauci told National Geographic that this virus "could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated."  Could not.  He left no room for doubt: [...]

Pfizer CEO: Our Vaccines Offer 'Limited, If Any Protection'.  Speaking during remarks to a J.P. Morgan healthcare conference this week, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla openly stated current vaccines the company developed for Wuhan coronavirus offer "limited, if any" protection against contracting current variants of the disease.  He then encouraged booster shots.  [Tweet]  The statement from Bourla comes as the Biden administration continues to justify vaccine mandates for federal workers, contractors and private businesses.  The Supreme Court heard arguments about President Biden's mandates for private companies and medical workers last week.  A ruling is expected soon on the constitutionality of the mandates.

Heated Exchange Between Senator Rand Paul and Notorious Liar Dr. Anthony Fauci.  Senator Dr. Rand Paul confronted Dr. Anthony Fauci and they got into a heated exchange during a Senate committee hearing on COVID-19.  Senator Paul confronted Fauci about his efforts to manipulate science based on his political ideology.  Dr. Fauci pulled the first line of leftist retort, become a victim, and replied that Senator Paul was trying to get him killed.  Dr. Fauci's extremely partisan political views form the basis of his instability.  Suffering from extreme delusions of grandeur and enabled by a group of leftist sycophants in politics, media and Hollywood, Fauci has a severely inflated view of his importance, while simultaneously carrying a fear of being exposed as the fraud he is.  The defensive pearl-clutching is a big tell.  [Video clip]

Fauci wriggles like a fish on a hook when questioned about DARPA.  On Monday [1/10/2022], Project Veritas released documents showing that an organization called EcoHealth Alliance approached the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) seeking funding for its research into SARS viruses in rats, only to be turned down because of DARPA's gain of function concerns.  EcoHealth then turned to Fauci's NIAID, which seemingly did research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology that led to COVID's spread throughout the world.  When quizzed about these documents before the Senate, Fauci denied the charges, but if you listen carefully, he denied a straw man of his own making.

Rand Paul Ends Fauci With a Pic for the Ages, as Dems Try to Save Him.  Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) took Dr. Anthony Fauci to the cleaners once again today [1/11/2022].  Paul first chastised Fauci for claiming that he was "science."  This is something I've covered before when he said it in June and November.  It shows how unprofessional and narcissistic Fauci truly is.  But then, he went on to explain why that was so bad with an example of how Fauci had tried to silence dissent.  According to Paul, Fauci had conspired with Dr. Francis Collins to do a "quick and devastating takedown" of prominent epidemiologists from Harvard, Stanford, and Oxford by smearing them as "fringe."  "Do you really think it's appropriate to use your $420,000 salary to attack scientists who disagree with you?" Paul said.  [Tweet]

Did Fauci Interfere In The 2020 Election?  Special Counsel Says It's A 'Close Call'.  The Office of Special Counsel (OSC) exonerated National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director Dr. Anthony Fauci earlier this month in a "close call" case of a Hatch Act violation.  In June, the government transparency non-profit Protect the Public's Trust filed a complaint against Fauci over an October 2020 interview with the Washington Post.  Published days before the election, the White House medical adviser branded then-candidate Joe Biden as taking the novel Wuhan coronavirus more seriously.  In the article, headlined "A whole lot of hurt:  Fauci warns of COVID-19 surge, offers blunt assessment of Trump's response," Fauci told the Post, "you could not possibly be positioned more poorly" to confront the pandemic and emphasized the United States needed an "abrupt change."  When asked about the differences between the two major presidential candidates on their pandemic plans, Fauci said Biden "is taking it seriously from a public health perspective," but that incumbent President Donald Trump was "looking at it from a different perspective."

Backed into a Corner, Fauci Plays the Victim and Accuses Rand Paul of 'Kindling the Crazies' Out There.  NIAID director Dr. Anthony Fauci angrily lashed out at Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) Tuesday [1/11/2022], after the Kentucky Republican called him out for claiming to "unilaterally represent science," and for plotting to destroy dissenting scientists.  Paul has repeatedly sparred with Fauci over the funding of gain-of-function experiments at the Wuhan lab.  In an impressive display of misdirection, Fauci went after Paul for "distorting" his good works, and for inciting threats against his life.  Paul began his line of questioning by hammering Fauci for claiming arrogantly that he represents Science.  "A planner who believes he is 'the science' leads to an arrogance that justifies in his mind using government resources to smear and to destroy the reputations of other scientists who disagree with him," the senator said.

Rays bullpen catcher Jean Ramirez dies at age 28.  Rays bullpen catcher Jean Ramirez died unexpectedly Monday at age 28, the team announced.  Baseball operations president Erik Neander said in a statement posted on the team's Twitter account late Tuesday afternoon that it was an "unexpected and difficult loss."  The Rays provided no other details.

Ronald McDonald House Sends Eviction Notices to Unvaccinated Children and Their Families.  The methods of coercion to strongarm people into getting vaccinated have all been a disgusting breach in both personal freedoms and sanity, but this move by a Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver British Columbia may be the lowest attempt at doing it yet as it involves evicting a small child with deadly cancer.  Austin Fergason is the father of a four-year-old child with leukemia who received a notice from Ronald McDonald House Charities — British Columbia & Yukon chapter, that he had a month to move his child and his family out unless they submitted to the jab.

Father of Young Boy with Leukemia Responds to Ronald McDonald House Over Its Vaccine Order.  Ronald McDonald House, acting as a voice for medical tyrants, is now issuing vaccination orders to parents of children with serious health issues.  These are not even their doctors.  This is Ronald McDonald House issuing orders to parents to give their sick children a "vaccine" that does not stop the spread of the virus.  [Video clip]

University of Chicago Students Slam 'Unethical' Booster Mandate: 'We Are Not Lab Rats'.  Students at the University of Chicago are speaking out against their school's recent decision to mandate COVID-19 boosters for students ahead of their return to campus for the upcoming semester.  The editorial staff of The Chicago Thinker rightfully noted how the decision to mandate boosters for the school's student body "is demonstrably unsafe, ineffective, unnecessary, inconsistent, and unethical."  "We've struggled beneath UChicago's draconian COVID decrees for years, but the university's booster mandate reaches a new height of absurdity," wrote the board, of which Federalist Contributor Evita Duffy is a part.  "UChicago claims to rely upon 'expert' opinion in structuring its COVID regime.  Yet, even advisory committees at the FDA and CDC initially declined to recommend the COVID booster for those under the age of 65."

I Lost My Job as United Pilot for Refusing Vaccine for Faith-Based Reasons.  For many Americans who, like myself, have decided not to take the COVID-19 vaccine for religious or medical reasons, staying true to our decision can mean being singled out and rejected by family, friends, and even employers.  For me, it meant being placed on indefinite, unpaid leave from my job as a pilot for United Airlines, without any benefits — including medical coverage, and no emergency ability to access my retirement savings.  A pilot since 18, I spent the last 30 years flying commercially.  The last 24 years were spent with Continental, then United through a 2021 merger.  I've given a decade of service to United. [...] Because of my Christian faith, I chose not to take the vaccine.  I refuse to be complicit in the use of fetal tissue, which was used in the research and development for both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and in the deployment of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine.  However, I adamantly defend the right for each to choose what is best for their health and faith.

National Labor Relations Board insists Whole Foods allow political speech on face masks.  Some Whole Foods employees want to wear face masks that show their support for Black Lives Matter.  Whole Foods objects on the basis that its dress code prohibits employees "from wearing attire or apparel with any visible slogans, messages, logos or advertising that are not company-related."  The case will be heard by a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) judge in March.

Ted Budd demands Biden explain how many convicted felons got $1,400 virus stimulus checks.  Rep. Ted Budd is demanding the White House explain how many convicted felons, including the terrorist responsible for the Boston Marathon bombing, received coronavirus stimulus checks from the Biden administration.  Mr. Budd, a North Carolina Republican, sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Tuesday urging the administration to make the information public.  "Hardworking taxpayers have the right to expect that their dollars are spent wisely and carefully," said Mr. Budd, who is running for the U.S. Senate this year.  "That's why it is unconscionable that terrorists and murderers received taxpayer-funded checks from President Biden's American Rescue Plan."  The North Carolina Republican said the White House should disclose not only how many incarcerated felons received coronavirus stimulus checks, but also the exact amount that it cost taxpayers and how the funds were spent.

Sex Traffickers, Murderers, Terrorists Got Stimulus Checks While in Prison.  Convicted murderers and sex traffickers who received COVID-19 stimulus checks are being sued by the federal government who ordered them to use funds to pay their victims' families, court documents say.  It was revealed that Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev received a $1,400 stimulus check under a $1.9 trillion bill signed by President Joe Biden last March.  Sens. Bill Cassidy, R-La., Tom Cotton, R-Ark., and Ted Cruz, R-Texas, offered an amendment on the floor at the time to block checks from prisoners but failed the party-line vote, 49-50.  The previous bills lacked any language barring imprisoned felons from receiving stimulus payments.

Scientists believed Covid leaked from Wuhan lab, but feared debate could hurt 'international harmony'.  Leading British and US scientists thought it was likely that Covid accidentally leaked from a laboratory but were concerned that further debate would harm science in China, emails show.  An email from Sir Jeremy Farrar, director of the Wellcome Trust, on February 2[,] 2020[,] said that "a likely explanation" was that Covid had rapidly evolved from a Sars-like virus inside human tissue in a low-security lab.  The email, to Dr Anthony Fauci and Dr Francis Collins of the US National Institutes of Health, went on to say that such evolution may have "accidentally created a virus primed for rapid transmission between humans".  But a leading scientist told Sir Jeremy that "further debate would do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in China in particular".  Dr Collins, the former director of the US National Institutes of Health, warned it could damage "international harmony".

Get Ready for Your Government-Issued N95.  In many ways, the Omicron variant of COVID-19 has been disappointing for Democrats and their hypochondriac base.  While hospitalizations are up and cases are way up, length of stay and severe outcomes are down.  In fact, a new study was just released that showed that out of 52,000 patients, researchers couldn't find a single person who was put on a ventilator.  Deaths also are also not following the case curve as in past COVID spikes.

Paul: Fauci Committing 'Malpractice' — 'Needs to Be Dismissed from Office'.  Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) said Monday [1/10/2022] on FNC's "Fox News Primetime" that National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci should be removed from his office for committing "malpractice" by treating all Americans the same in the COVID pandemic.  Paul said, "But all along this has been — and this is Fauci's main mistake.  He said, let's treat everyone the same.  Universal treatment whether you're 10 years old or 80 years old.  And that, frankly, is malpractice.  Because you are 1,000 times more likely to die if you are 80 than if you are 10, this is a huge mistake.  It's an unforgivable mistake by Fauci, and it's one of the reasons why we need to quit taking his advice.  He needs to be dismissed from office.  Because he is telling you things that aren't true."

Biden administration planning lists of employees seeking 'religious' vaccine exemptions.  An obscure federal agency has proposed creating a database capturing the names and "personal religious information" of government employees who submit "religious accommodation requests" to be exempted from the Biden administration's COVID-19 vaccine mandate.  At least seven other federal agencies, including five Cabinet departments, are apparently setting up similar "personal religious information" databases, according to an analyst at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank in the District.  The federal Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency for the District of Columbia, or CSOSA, published a "notice of a new system of records" in the Federal Register on Tuesday [1/11/2022].  The agency, which supervises defendants awaiting trial as well as parolees, aims to "reduce recidivism" and "integrate offenders into the community by connecting them with resources and interventions."

It's Illegal, Immoral, and Unconstitutional to Ration COVID-19 Treatments Based on Race.  William F. Buckley Jr. famously described the role of conservatives as standing athwart history yelling, "Stop."  Usually, we stand in front of what liberals claim is "progress," such as allowing sex changes for minor children and abolishing the Constitution.  But sometimes we have to stand in front of liberals to stop them from reinstituting sordid practices that we have successfully ended.  In New York and Minnesota, liberals have put the train in full reverse by prioritizing limited COVID-19 treatments on the basis of race.  And the federal agency that is supposed to base its work on rational, proven science, the Food and Drug Administration, has issued guidelines approving this noxious behavior.  In New York, officials have made drugs automatically available only to people who meet one of several eligibility criteria, which include being "nonwhite."  In Minnesota, the Department of Health is "deprioritizing access" to treatment for Americans who happen to be Caucasian.

Mass Formation: Deployed on You After Over 200 Years of Study.  [Scroll down]  Clearly, Google was not the only corporation triggered by Joe Rogan podcast #1757 which previously reached #1 podcast ranking worldwide, has been referred to as "the most important interview of our time" and has been seen by over 50 million viewers.  But what absolutely has been generated by all of the coopted reactionary press and Big Tech titans metaphorically tripping over their shoelaces is a massive trove of real time data validating the brilliant Mass Formation intellectual synthesis developed by Professor Desmet over the last two years.  In this coordinated propaganda and censorship response, we can clearly see the hands of the BBC-led Trusted News Initiative, the Scientific Technological Elite, the transnational investment funds and their World Economic Forum allies which control Pfizer and most of Big Pharma, Legacy Media and Big Tech (and many national governments) acting in real time to suppress a growing awareness by the general public of having been actively manipulated using crowd psychology tools to generate clinically significant fear and anxiety of COVID-19 (otherwise known as "Coronaphobia") to advance their agendas on a global scale.  Multiple governments have now admitted to actively using fear and 'Mass Formation'-related theories as a tool for totalitarian population control during this outbreak.  This is occurring at the same time that Omicron is destroying the legitimacy of government and WHO propaganda concerning the "Safe and Effective" mRNA vaccines and associated mandates.

Former DARPA Official:  COVID-19 Was Designed to Be an Aerosolized Synthetic Spike Protein Vaccine For Bats.  A former DARPA official claimed in a letter to the Inspector General of the Department of Defense last summer that "a synthetic spike protein chimera" was created at the Wuhan Institute of Virology to inoculate bats in caves, but it escaped from the lab before it was ready, causing the COVID-19 pandemic instead.  New documents reveal that Dr. Anthony Fauci's NIAID went ahead and funded top secret research dubbed "Project Defuse" at the Wuhan Lab after the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) rejected the project because it violated a gain of function research moratorium.  "The proposal does not mention or assess potential risks of Gain of Function research," the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) said in its rejection letter.  In Senate testimony, Dr. Fauci has repeatedly denied under oath that the NIH and NAIAD were involved with EcoHealth Alliance's gain-of-function research.

Vultures!
Rolls-Royce boss says COVID deaths were good for business.  The prospect of dying unexpectedly from COVID-19 can concentrate the mind wonderfully — on buying an expensive car.  That's according to Rolls-Royce chief executive Torsten Müller-Otvös, who said the luxury automaker sold more cars last year than it did during any other year in its 117-year history.  Müller-Otvös told the Financial Times he believes Rolls-Royce rolled to its record because the pandemic got people to realize that "life can be short."  "Quite a lot of people witnessed people in their community dying from COVID, that makes them think life can be short, and you'd better live now than postpone it to a later date," he said.

The Editor says...
Yes, life can be short, as CNN will remind you every ten minutes.  But life can also go on a lot longer than you anticipated, and your retirement years will be much more difficult if you squandered your money on a fancy car when you were 35.  Yes, you might catch Covid-19.  But unless you were already in poor health, you'll probably get over it.  Think ahead.

Despite continued idiocy, COVID sense is finally winning out.  It's sometimes like pulling teeth, but the nation is making fitful progress toward COVID sanity.  Here in New York, Gov. Hochul and (especially) Mayor Adams are refusing to panic amid the Omicron wave, as their teams offer ever more good sense and better information.  Glimmers of sanity are even showing in President Biden's orbit.  Plenty of idiocy remains, even on the Supreme Court, where Friday's hearing on Biden's vaccine mandate for most US businesses brought some huge whoppers from the liberal wing.  Justice Steven Breyer, for one, pointed to "750 million new COVID cases yesterday" — when the entire US population is only half that figure.  He also said, "Hospitals are full almost to the point of the maximum," another wild error:  The overall inpatient population isn't growing.

Axios, CNN, WaPo:  Let's face it, the CDC has a major credibility crisis.  How good of them to notice!  Most people discounted CDC and FDA credibility after they admitted to "noble lies" such as that on masking, but recently the CDC have stepped up their game on obvious incompetence and politicization.  The impression of desperate flailing had already been made on many Americans prior to this, but now media outlets like Axios have sat up and taken notice.

Yet they still insist on calling it a vaccine.
Pfizer CEO Now Admits Two Dose Vaccine Offers No Protection Against Infection or Severe Disease, Third Dose May Reduce Hospitalization.  In an ordinary time, this admission from the CEO of Pfizer would end all the COVID-19 rules, regulations and vaccination passport efforts.  Alas, we are not in ordinary times.  Admitting that none of the vaccines have any value in stopping people from contracting the infection, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla stated the following earlier today. [...]

Everything But the Kitchen Sink.  In the following video a group of German doctors discuss a series of vax-related images and videos taken using a light microscope.  Researchers examined both the contents of the "vaccines" and the blood of patients who had been "vaccinated", some of whom experienced serious adverse effects from the jab.  The doctors are able to identify some of the many strange impurities in the vax, but not all of them.  There seem to be parasites, non-organic artifacts, and possible nanotech devices.  This is chilling stuff.  [Video clip]

Project Veritas Obtains Hidden Military Documents Showing NIH Intent to Create SARS-CoV-2, Using Gain of Function Research.  Project Veritas has obtained military documents hidden on a classified system showing how EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018, seeking funding to conduct gain of function research of bat borne coronaviruses.  The proposal, named Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA over safety concerns and the notion that it violated the gain of function research moratorium.  However, according to the documents, NIAID, under the direction of Dr. Fauci, went ahead with the research in Wuhan, China and at several sites across the U.S.

Military Documents About Gain of Function Contradict Fauci Testimony Under Oath.  Project Veritas has obtained startling never-before-seen documents regarding the origins of COVID-19, gain of function research, vaccines, potential treatments which have been suppressed, and the government's effort to conceal all of this.  The documents in question stem from a report at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, better known as DARPA, which were hidden in a top secret shared drive.  DARPA is an agency under the U.S. Department of Defense in charge of facilitating research in technology with potential military applications.  Project Veritas has obtained a separate report to the Inspector General of the Department of Defense written by U.S. Marine Corp Major, Joseph Murphy, a former DARPA Fellow.  The report states that EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018, seeking funding to conduct gain of function research of bat borne coronaviruses.  The proposal, named Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA over safety concerns and the notion that it violates the basis gain of function research moratorium.

State offering $200 gift cards in effort to get more children vaccinated against COVID-19.  A new incentive has been announced in an effort to get more children fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in Minnesota.  On Tuesday, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said families who get their 5- to 11-year-old children fully vaccinated in January and February can get a $200 Visa gift card per child.  However, in order to be eligible for the gift cards, the first and second doses must be administered between Jan. 1 and Feb. 28.  Officials say families are able to receive one gift card for each eligible child who is vaccinated in that time frame.

Furious Fauci tears into Rand Paul for claiming he's 'using his $420,000 salary to take down scientists that disagree with him'.  Dr. Anthony Fauci was caught on hot mic calling Republican Senator Roger Marshall a 'moron' after he accused him of hiding finances in a heated Senate Health Committee hearing on Tuesday [1/11/2022].  Fauci responded to Marshall after telling him many times his financial disclosures, including his $434,212-a-year salary, are public knowledge and following an intense showdown with his nemesis Rand Paul. [...] During the contentious hearing Fauci also accused Republican Senator Rand Paul of personally attacking him for 'political gain, distorting 'everything' he says' and inspiring 'crazies' to want to kill him during another tense battle.  Marshall began his off-topic exchange with a blown up check made out to Fauci for $434,312 and demanded he present his already-public financial disclosures — implicitly accusing the longtime medical expert of possible insider trading.

Bombshell Project Veritas Exposé Poses Urgent Questions for Fauci and the Entire Pandemic Response.  Last night, Project Veritas released a video allegedly exposing classified documents about COVID and the pandemic response.  In the video, Project Veritas showed portions of a memo written by Marine Corps Major General Joseph P. Murphy about the pandemic origins and response.  If the conclusions Murphy drew even approach the truth, political affiliation no longer means anything for anyone who lost a loved one to COVID or cares about someone who suffered a vaccine injury.  The memo confirms the existence of a proposal from EcoHealth Alliance to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). A group that calls itself D.R.A.S.T.I.C. leaked the proposal in Sept. 2021.

Quebec announces [a] financial penalty for [those who are] unvaccinated.  The premier of the French-speaking Canadian province of Quebec announced Tuesday that adult residents who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19 will be charged a financial penalty.  Premier Francois Legault said not getting vaccinated leads to consequences for the health care system and not all Quebecers should pay for that.  He said the levy will only apply to people who do not qualify for medical exemptions.  It is the first time a government in Canada has announced a financial penalty for people who refuse to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Milestone: Over 1M adverse event reports in VAERS from the COVID vaccine.  On the Dec 24, 2021 release of the VAERS data, we passed an important milestone:  over 1M adverse events reported in VAERS.  Oddly, the mainstream media didn't cover this at all.  I just can't figure out why.  In short, these vaccines have more adverse reactions than all vaccines combined in the 30 year history of VAERS (over 70 vaccines).  They are the most deadly vaccines ever created and have likely killed over 150,000 Americans.  But there's nothing to worry about because the CDC says the vaccines are safe and effective.

Sen. Roger Marshall Takes Fauci Apart on New Bombshell DARPA Report.  Now, I thought it was going to be Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) who took on Dr. Anthony Fauci on the bombshell DARPA report, which we reported on earlier.  Rand Paul did finish off Fauci in a memorable exchange on his desire to silence dissent.  Fauci himself provided a meme for the ages which Paul took advantage of and doubtless, it will be altered for more hilarity in the future.  But it was another Republican, Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas, who is also a doctor, who went there on the DARPA report.  First, Marshall notes that there were more deaths under Joe Biden than under President Donald Trump.  That's the chart you see behind him in the following video.  But then he tells Fauci that 59 percent of Americans didn't trust him.  Fauci replies that that was a real "distortion of reality."  Next, Marshall hones in on the gain of function research lie. [...]

More Simple, Honest Questions About COVID-19.  It is a fact that those who have had both shots, plus the booster, are testing positive for COVID and are getting sick.  Can we now conclude the virus has mutated and is escaping the "vaccine?"  Can we now conclude that widely administering the mRNA vaccines to the general population, instead of limited distribution to those at highest risk, has been a failed strategy?  Can we now conclude that the SARS CoV-2 virus has mutated and each successive variant is less susceptible to the "vaccine," and may be making vaccine recipients more susceptible to becoming sick with COVID?  Since when, in the course of the history of medical science, has a patient been required to get three doses of a vaccine, yet he still remains at risk of contracting the very illness for which the patient has been... umm... vaccinated?  Were three doses of the polio vaccine required, while still leaving the person at risk of contracting polio?  Smallpox?  Measles?  Mumps?  Yellow Fever?

The vaccine conundrum and the Mayo Clinic.  This week, some 700 unvaccinated Mayo Clinic employees lost their jobs because they did not agree to take the COVID-19 vaccine or did not receive a medical or religious exemption.  In addition, an unknown number of Mayo employees have already quit or retired to avoid being fired.  The move comes as hospitals throughout the country struggle with a surge in hospital admissions combined with severe staff shortages.  Mayo, like many corporations, is between a rock and a hard place due to President Biden's federal vaccine mandate.  They have been put in a uniquely difficult position because their multistate clinic is often relied upon to develop and promote government public health policy.  For decades, Mayo has provided trusted medical advice to the country and world.  At a time when public trust in the federal government's ability to lead the pandemic recovery has eroded, we would all benefit from Mayo's leadership in realizing that it made a mistake in terminating these frontline workers.

Justice Sotomayor phones it in.  Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor may want people to think of her as a "wise Latina," but she displayed very little wisdom throughout the court's oral argument in National Federation of Independent Business v. Department of Labor on Friday.  Multiple fact-checkers have already slammed Sotomayor for falsely asserting, "We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition and many on ventilators."  But that was far from her only mistake.  On the 100,000 children claim, not only was this not even remotely true when she said it — according to the Department of Health and Human Services, there are fewer than 5,000 children with COVID-19 hospitalized right now — but over the course of the entire pandemic, only 83,000 children have been hospitalized for any reason.  This includes asymptomatic children in the hospital admitted for a broken leg who happened to test positive for COVID while they were treated.  The reality is that from the beginning, almost everyone has recognized that children face much lower risks of severe illness and hospitalization from COVID-19 than older adults and those with comorbidities.

LA Times:  It's necessary to mock the deaths of the unvaccinated.  In Orange County, California, Deputy District Attorney Kelly Ernby recently passed away due to complications from COVID. Ernby had been a vocal critic of government vaccination mandates and was herself unvaccinated according to her family and friends.  This led to the predictable, ghoulish end-zone dancing on social media that we regularly hear from supporters of mandates and immunity passports.  While most people in the media are compassionate enough (or at least politically sensible enough) to condemn such callous behavior, the Los Angeles times managed to find someone to take the opposite position.

Doctor's Court Testimony:  Ventilators 'Causing Harm,' Death in COVID Patients.  The family of a dying patient at a Florida hospital has filed an emergency appeal they hope will overturn a lower court's decision and force Mayo Clinic to give their preferred treatment for COVID-19.  Judge Marianne Aho of Florida's Fourth Judicial Circuit ruled against the family during an emergency hearing on Dec. 30.  In her order, Aho wrote that attorneys for the family of Daniel Pisano "have not established that the rights of privacy, self-determination, or any other right, entitles them to" the injunction they were seeking.  But attorneys for the family insist the Florida Patient's Bill of Rights gives Daniel Pisano's family the right to choose his treatment.  The patient's son and his wife of 51 years have power of attorney giving them the legal right to make medical decisions for him while he is unconscious.  And that includes the right to choose his treatment, argue their attorneys, Nick Whitney, of Jacksonville, and Jeff Childers, of Gainesville.

High Heat Disarms Coronavirus in Less Than a Second.  A new experimental system shows exposure of coronavirus to a very high temperature, even if applied for less than a second, can be sufficient to neutralize the virus so that it can no longer infect another human host.  Applying heat to neutralize COVID-19 has been demonstrated before, but in previous studies researchers applied temperatures from one to 20 minutes.  This length of time is not a practical solution, as applying heat for a long period of time is both difficult and costly.  Arum Han, professor in the electrical and computer engineering department at Texas A&M University, and his team have now demonstrated that heat treatment for less than a second completely inactivates the coronavirus — providing a possible solution to mitigating the ongoing spread of COVID-19, particularly through long-range airborne transmission.  The Medistar Corporation approached leadership and researchers from the College of Engineering in the spring of 2020 to collaborate and explore the possibility of applying heat for a short amount of time to kill COVID-19.  Soon after, Han and his team built a system to investigate the feasibility of such a procedure.

Covid Vaccine Death obituary in MN Blames Joe Biden.  Derek Andrew McIntosh, 41, from Monticello, Minnesota passed away unexpectedly on January 4th, 2022, due to complications from blood clots resulting in cardiac arrest after being forced to get vaccinated.  In his obituary, McIntosh had been vehemently opposed to taking the vaccine.  He had no choice but to comply with the unconstitutional vaccine mandates.

Project Veritas releases military documents that contradict Fauci's sworn testimony on gain of function research.  Project Veritas released documents Monday night which appear to contradict NIH Director Dr. Anthony Fauci's sworn testimony regarding gain of function research.  The documents come from a report at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which were allegedly hidden in a top secret shared drive.  DARPA facilitates research in technology with potential military applications under the US Department of Defense[.]  Project Veritas has obtained a report which stated that EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018, looking to obtain funding for Project Defuse to conduct gain of function research of coronaviruses from bats.  According to Project Veritas, the proposal was rejected by DARPA because it violated a gain of function research moratorium.  Additionally, there were safety concerns.

Naomi Wolf: The Hysteria Is Not Genuine, It's A Strategy.  Author Naomi Wolf has been an outspoken critic of vaccine mandates and Covid tyranny from the start.  Today, she talks to Steve Bannon about her belief that the left's "hysteria" about Covid is actually a well-planned campaign to oppress the people.  "They are starting with a purge of conservatives, but what they are doing is keeping us down home, not allowing us to congregate, not allowing us to hear each other... herding us like horses on to social media and then saying we're going to police what you can say on social media...  We can't say anything about vaccines.  The vaccines are a Trojan horse.  The vaccines are a proxy.  You criminalize speech around vaccines.  You clear away dissent and clear away freedom of speech, and that's the last pillar that protects us."

Finally the CDC Admits It! 75% of All 'Covid Deaths' Were People Dying Already had 'Four or More Comorbidities'.  It has finally happened! on Monday, Biden's CDC Director Rochelle Walensky has finally came clean on the covid death data.  "The overwhelming number of deaths — over 75% — occurred in people who had at least four comorbidities, so really these are people who were unwell to begin with."  Looks like yet another 'conspiracy theory' is proven to be accurate.  [Video clip]

Politician In France Who Backs Locking Down The Unvaccinated Is Attacked By Protesters.  The deputy for Saint-Pierre And Miquelon was attacked in front of his home during demonstrations against his support for vaccine passports. [...] For several months, attacks or threats against elected officials have been increasing, in particular against the majority deputies who support the health measures taken by the government.  Faced with the resurgence of threats against these deputies, a referent was appointed at the end of November within the services of the National Assembly to "collect reports" and "to advise" elected officials in their possible steps.  The Minister of the Interior also asked the prefects a few days ago to strengthen the protection of elected officials "in the context of the examination of the vaccine pass bill".  [Video clip]

7 COVID 'Conspiracy Theories' That Turned Out to be True in 2021.  [#2] The vaccine is not safe.  "Safe and effective."  That's been the line ever since Anthony Fauci started his nearly daily cable news tour to shill big pharma back when this all started.  Critics of the vaccine — people who actually read the data and don't just listen and believe the TV people — repeatedly pointed out the absence of long-term studies on the effects of the vaccine and the short-term evidence that suggest seriously dangerous side effects, particularly regarding blood clots and heart problems.  In response, the media quickly maligned concerned citizens, labelling them anti-vaxxers for questioning the narrative, all while governments began work on introducing policies to compel citizens to get a vaccine which they weren't allowed to examine.  The only problem is that the conspiracy theories were correct, and there are several risks associated with COVID vaccines, including death, myocarditis, Bell's Palsy, anaphylaxis, and paralysis.

Multiple Illinois cities resist new vaccine passport system that makes 5 year olds carry papers.  Some cities are resisting a vaccine passport system that was established last week in Cook County, Illinois.  The county is a Democratic Party stronghold and is the largest in the state.  Chicago is one of its cities.  Its population comprises about 40% of the state.  But not everyone is on board with the requirement that restaurants, bars, and fitness centers "must require any individual 5 years of age and older to show proof that they are fully-vaccinated against COVID-19 with an approved vaccine in order to enter the establishment."  "So far leaders from Orland Park, Niles, Morton Grove and Lincolnwood have chosen to not enforce the vaccine mandate in their towns," The Center Square reported.

More Good News on Ivermectin.  When it comes to the treatment of COVID-19, many Western nations have been hobbled by the politicization of medicine.  Throughout 2020, media and many public health experts warned against the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), despite the fact that many practicing doctors were praising its ability to save patients.  Most have been silenced through online censorship.  Some even lost their jobs for the "sin" of publicly sharing their successes with the drug.  Another decades-old antiparasitic drug that may be even more useful than HCQ is ivermectin.  Like HCQ, ivermectin is on the World Health Organization's list of essential drugs, but its benefits are also being ignored by public health officials and buried by mainstream media.  Ivermectin is a heartworm medication that has been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro.  In the U.S., the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) has been calling for widespread adoption of Ivermectin, both as a prophylactic and for the treatment of all phases of COVID-19.

It turns out that, if you doubted COVID's deadliness, you were correct.  Something peculiar has become clear over the last two years: leftists seem to enjoy the COVID panic.  For them, it started with the camaraderie of lockdowns and morphed in the smug self-righteousness of the masks and vaccinations, all made shiveringly delicious with that soupçon of fear that pairs well with totalitarian mandates.  CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky's appearance on Monday's Good Morning America, however, may destroy that delightful emotional castle in which leftists have immured themselves.  It turns out that most vaccinated people no longer need fear imminent death.  It's been very weird for those of us who have maintained some degree of objectivity about the whole COVID uproar to see leftists maintain their high degree of terror about COVID despite their being vaccinated and boosted.

The Failing Case for COVID-19 Mandates.  The recent COVID-19 outbreak is dealing a major blow to the justification for extreme vaccine mandates.  While there is some evidence that vaccines decrease the severity of COVID-19 infection, the public policy arguments to essentially force Americans to get vaccinated, under threat of losing their livelihoods is rapidly falling apart as the recent wave sweeps the country.  What we are seeing with the latest surge in cases — attributed to the omicron and delta variants of COVID-19 — is that countless people who have been vaccinated and boosted are getting sick.  Plenty of left-wing media outlets have tried to make Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis seem like a reckless monster for refusing to implement harsh lockdowns and mandates since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The pattern has repeated itself in the most recent wave.

Jay Sekulow Explains Vaccine Mandate Cases Before Supreme Court.  Friday was a critical day for American liberty.  The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two cases to determine whether or not a stay would be issued against President Joe Biden's vaccine mandates.  The high court heard arguments on the Biden COVID-19 vaccine and testing mandate for businesses with 100 or more employees, and also on the mandate requiring health care workers to be vaccinated.  "The courts seem inclined to strike down the mandate, probably on the lack of authority ground, that OSHA, the agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, doesn't have the statutory authority to do what they did," says Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice.  The center filed a lawsuit on behalf of The Heritage Foundation in November challenging the 100-plus employees vaccine mandate.

This Scientist Created a Rapid Test Just Weeks Into the Pandemic.  Here's Why You Still Can't Get It.  When COVID-19 started sweeping across America in the spring of 2020, Irene Bosch knew she was in a unique position to help.  The Harvard-trained scientist had just developed quick, inexpensive tests for several tropical diseases, and her method could be adapted for the novel coronavirus.  So Bosch and the company she had co-founded two years earlier seemed well-suited to address an enormous testing shortage.  E25Bio — named after the massive red brick building at MIT that houses the lab where Bosch worked — already had support from the National Institutes of Health, along with a consortium of investors led by MIT.  Within a few weeks, Bosch and her colleagues had a test that would detect coronavirus in 15 minutes and produce a red line on a little chemical strip.  The factory where they were planning to make tests for dengue fever could quickly retool to produce at least 100,000 COVID-19 tests per week, she said, priced at less than $10 apiece, or cheaper at a higher scale.

Democrat-Allied Experts Turn on Joe Biden's Coronavirus Response.  Democrat-allied experts have begun to turn on the Biden administration's shaky coronavirus response, dubbing it a "credibility crisis" and "the butt of jokes."  While then-candidate Biden promised over ten times in 2020 to shut the virus down, the omicron variant has reportedly continued to set records, threatening Biden's credibility.  [Tweet]  "The administration in general has lost the confidence of people who would be their natural supporters," Biden administration advisory board member Celine Gounder told Axios, speaking about the rise of omicron and the ensuing infighting between the White House and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

CDC Finally Admits 75 Percent of COVID Deaths Happen in Patients "With at least Four or More Comorbidities".  This issue has always been at the heart of the internal data that was never turned over for review.  For two years, people have wanted to know the distinction and general health position of the people who were categorized as dying from COVID.  What was their previous health status?  For reasons that can only be reconciled by admitting it was purposeful to their objectives, the CDC never released any information showing the background health status of those who were categorized as dying from COVID.  However, recently the CDC said they were going to assemble those various subsets of key data for the public.  On January 7th, only being discussed today, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky made the admission, on a CBS morning broadcast, that 75% of those who are classified as dying from COVID had at least four underlying pre-conditions:  "Over 75 percent had at least four comorbidities, so really these are people who were unwell to begin with."  [Video clip]

Bill Filed In Washington Would Authorize 'Strike Force' To 'Involuntarily Detain' Unvaccinated Families.  The Washington State Board of Health may soon amend state law to authorize the involuntary detainment of residents as young as 5 years old in Covid-19 "internment camps" for failing to comply with the state's experimental vaccine mandate.  WAC 246-100-040, a proposed revision to include Covid protocol under the state's Communicable and Certain Other Diseases act, outlines "Procedures for isolation or quarantine."  The measure would allow local health officers "at his or her sole discretion" to "issue an emergency detention order causing a person or group of persons to be immediately detained for purposes of isolation or quarantine."

CDC Website Reveals Police Power Will be Used at Quarantine Stations for the "Benefit of Society".  The CDC stated on its website (last reviewed Sept. 2021) that to control the spread of disease within their borders, states have laws to enforce the use of isolation and quarantine.  The law also includes the use of police power functions in their quarantine stations.  "In addition to serving as medical functions, isolation and quarantine also are "police power" functions, derived from the right of the state to take action affecting individuals for the benefit of society," CDC stated on their website.

Chicago teachers go door to door to sign families up for COVID testing while students are shut out of classrooms.  Chicago teachers are participating in an illegal strike, according to Mayor Lori Lightfoot.  With free time on their hands, some teachers are walking door to door signing families up for COVID-19 testing.  Apparently, it is safe to expose themselves to random adults but not to do their jobs in classrooms with children.  2022 is starting off as poorly as 2021 ended.  Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), tweet-bragged on the teachers.  Newsweek described it as teachers spreading "education to families by educating parents on COVID-19."  Chicago educators gotta educate, I guess, just not in their classrooms doing their actual jobs.  What heroes.

The Science Virus, Part I: Orwellian Science.  How do you characterize something that is unhealthy and spreads between hosts?  What happens when corrupt science goes viral?  What is the impact of a fraudulent, or ill-considered result cited and re-cited in an expanding tree of scientific literature?

3-year-old girl dies of heart attack one day after taking COVID vaccine.  A three-year-old girl in Argentina died of a heart attack the day after receiving a COVID vaccine required for her to enter kindergarten, her mother said.  Speaking with Telefe Tucumán, Miryam Suárez said the vaccine and government mandate killed her daughter, Ámbar, who had been healthy and "full of life."

The vax opinion I want.  I am not a lawyer and I skipped listening to the arguments over the vax mandate because the mandates are patently unconstitutional.  Why waste time on lies?  The court will render a decision in a few weeks that will disappoint true Americans by giving the mandate argument credence.  In fact, I suspect the Roberts Court will uphold the mandate by tying it to the congressional power of taxation or the good old interstate commerce clause, which justices created a century ago to allow the federal government to do whatever the hell it wants.  Even if by some slim hope the court strikes the mandates down, it will be unsatisfying because the Roberts Court is always too nice in its dealings with the Constitution.  I can see them in conference telling one another well, at least the Faucists mean well.

COVID: A constant fight against misinformation and propaganda.  A new study using data from Denmark examine vaccine effectiveness for omicron.  It concluded:  "The vaccines are making it more likely you'll be infected with Omicron 90 days after you are fully vaccinated.  To keep vaccine effectiveness high against omicron, vaccination every 30 days is needed."  This study supports the view that current vaccines reduce immunity and make you MORE likely to get infected, not less.  Thus, providing a warning to people getting on a vaccine treadmill that you can never get off in the future.  If this study gets it correct, then the public globally have been lied to about the vaccine effectiveness for omicron.  This is what the published study means:  Based on what the vaccines do to our immune system, it's likely that the needed interval will shorten with each booster.  If people get boosted regularly, they will be MORE vulnerable to Delta and Omicron than if they weren't vaccinated.  That's what NEGATIVE vaccine efficacy that was found in the study means.  It doesn't just mean the protection wears off.  It means the OPPOSITE of what the public has been told:  it means the vaccine helps the virus to infect you by suppressing your immune system.  It means the public has been grossly lied to.

Leftist Supreme Court Justices Abandoned The Law And Made Up Facts.  In Supreme Court arguments on the OSHA COVID Vaccination Mandate case, the "Wise Latina" revealed at least Sixth Degree Stupidity for all to see.  One should not casually suggest that a graduate of law school who has ascended through the ranks to the highest Court in the land is stupid.  But that is the inescapable conclusion her performance requires. [...] The Wise Latina was not alone.  Justices Kagan and Breyer were equally adrift in the storm of panic porn unleashed on America by the Dark Lord of Disease, Anthony Fauci. [...] These three alleged jurists could not contain themselves in presenting egregious lies about the prevalence and severity of COVID-19. In doing so they perverted the judicial process in ways that could not be remedied short of immediate factual rejoinders.  Unfortunately, counsel for the plaintiffs in the case were unprepared for questions of fact and left great edifices of insanity standing without being challenged. [...] Mental incapacity was not restricted to the Wise Latina.  Justice Breyer claimed that "hospitals are full almost to the point of maximum," and "750 million" new cases were reported in the US yesterday.  I thought he was seated on the Supreme Court of a country with only 330 million people.

Are the vaccinated harming their immune systems?  Here is some number-crunching.  Using natural immunity as a base and the fully vaccinated to mean two mRNA shots, we can conclude the following:  An unassailable stat from the Israelis, which made Fauci change his guidance from "if you are fully vaccinated, you will not catch it" to "if you are fully vaccinated, you can still catch it and spread it," was that the fully vaccinated in Israel were 6 [to] 13 times more likely to catch the D variant than the naturally immune population.  And the first decent-sized sample regarding omicron shows that the fully vaccinated are 2.61 times more likely to catch omicron than the D variant.

The Legal and Moral Morass of Mandatory Vaccination.  The COVID vaccines are experimental drugs.  Even if the FDA were still functioning as intended and serving a productive role in protecting the public from dangerous products, these drugs are not approved.  It is true that the FDA, after putting aside its normal procedures intended to better ensure safety, has approved a version of the vaccines known as COMIRNATY.  But as all public health authorities admit, COMIRNATY is not available anywhere.  The drug companies cannot accept any liability for the damages their products are causing, because they know full well they would be bankrupted.  A fully approved drug would not have the complete liability protection that a drug under Emergency Use Authorization has.  That there is an approved version means that under the law, the EUA must be pulled.  This is just another law not being followed due to this "emergency."  Without the protection of the EUA, there would be no liability protection for the manufacturers.  The upshot is that there are no available fully approved COVID vaccines.

Will SCOTUS stop the vax mandates?  What if it doesn't?  With the Supreme Court on the verge of deciding one of its most consequential decisions ever in regard to OSHA and CMS vaccines mandates, Americans are fast approaching a tipping point that might require us all to make some difficult decisions.  On the one hand, if the Court upholds the mandates, millions will be forced to inoculate or forced into poverty.  Will we go silently into that dark night or we will resist?  What will that resistance look like?  What will the Marxist authoritarians do to enforce these mandates — apart from forcing us out of our jobs.  Impose fines?  Incarcerate us?  Although jails across the country are emptying out as radical district attorneys refuse to enforce the law, will there be enough room to accommodate the millions who resist?  If not, what kind of facilities will be erected to house the unvaccinated?

Texas Scientists Roll Out Patent-Free COVID-19 Vaccine, Protein-Based Corbevax Has No MRNA.  Texas scientists rolled out a new COVID-19 vaccine, saying it's patent-free and can be produced by any manufacturer in any country.  The vaccine, called Corbevax, was developed by the Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine.  It has successfully passed human trials as safe and effective.  The new treatment is based off protein-based technology that has been used in other vaccines for decades and it does not use MRNA.  India has already authorized production of 100 million doses per month of the new vaccine.  Meanwhile, Texas scientists say not-for-profit vaccines will help defeat COVID-19 quicker.

Biden administration guidance prioritizes race in administering COVID drugs.  Guidance issued by the Biden administration states certain individuals may be considered "high risk" and more quickly qualify for monoclonal antibodies and oral antivirals used to treat COVID-19 based on their "race or ethnicity."  In a fact sheet issued for healthcare providers by the Food and Drug Administration, the federal agency approved emergency use authorizations of sotrovimab — a monoclonal antibody proven to be effective against the Omicron variant — only to patients considered "high risk."  The guidance, updated in December 2021, says "medical conditions or factors" such as "race or ethnicity" have the potential to "place individual patients at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19," adding that the "authorization of sotrovimab under the EUA is not limited to" other factors outlined by the agency.

Race Isn't a "Risk Factor".  As the country continues to battle a surge of COVID-19 cases, many authorities are turning to new antiviral treatments, which can aid people diagnosed with the virus who are at high risk of falling seriously ill.  The problem is, there's a shortage of these medicines, forcing governments to ration them.  Authorities are understandably trying to direct their limited supply of these life-saving treatments to those who need them most.  But in New York, those authorities have decided that the color of one's skin is one way to define that need. [...] Their justification for listing race and ethnicity is "longstanding systemic health and social inequities that have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19."  New York isn't the first governing authority to try to use race as a proxy for need when it comes to battling COVID-19.  Earlier this year, Vermont, one of the whitest states in the country, opened up vaccine eligibility to racial minorities before white people (though it's important to note that the state did authorize the vaccines for people over 50 and the immunocompromised first).  The problem with using race as an approximation for need is that there isn't any evidence that race itself has any impact on COVID-19 severity.  The virus doesn't care about the color of one's skin.

Illegal drugs are good, but legal drugs are bad?  Has it dawned on anyone besides me that many of the people who advocate for legalization of marijuana and even harder drugs such as heroin are the same people who are aghast at the idea of free access to ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine?  Why is that?  Legalizing marijuana, heroin, and cocaine opens up new vistas of revenue for start-up drug manufacturing and distribution businesses, and for new state taxes.  Ivermectin and HCQ benefit very few except COVID sufferers.  But they do have the potential of diminishing the highly lucrative vaccine market.  The negative propaganda and absolute degradation of these potential COVID treatments are pervasive in the media.  It seems like a coordinated strategic attack.  HCQ is "fish tank cleaner" and ivermectin is "horse de-wormer".  Doctors and hospitals are so spooked by the fear of retribution that there have been incidents where they wouldn't administer ivermectin to dying COVID patients on ventilators as a last resort, even with a willing family and a court order.

Triple Vaccinated Swiss Olympic Athlete Fabienne Schlumpf Diagnosed with Myocarditis.  Triple vaccinated Swiss marathon record holder and Olympic athlete Fabienne Schlumpf was diagnosed with myocarditis and may never be able to compete again.  The 31-year-old Swiss runner announced on her Instagram account Thursday [1/6/2022] that she developed myocarditis.  At the time being, she is not allowed to play any sports and participate in training.

Emerging uses of "emergency".  Two of the Biden administration's vaccine mandates came before the Supreme Court for oral argument yesterday, one arising under OSHA and the other arising under the auspices of HHS.  I thought the first of these cases raised the question of administrative law regarding the lawful scope of agency authority in an unusually pure form.  Listening to the oral argument in NFIB v. OSHA, however, I have been disabused of the notion. [...] The case is apparently a vehicle for low-definition yammering of the kind to which we have grown accustomed on cable news.  Indeed, three of the justices appear to get their understanding of related facts from cable news.  If there is a question of principle in the case, it has been lost somewhere in the allegedly thinning layer of ozone.  The OSHA Emergency Temporary Standard before the Court in the application for a stay may or may not win the Court's approval, but I infer from the argument that OSHA exercises authority under a statute delegating congressional power in virtually unlimited form.

How Bad Is the Data on COVID? New Numbers From New York Provide Insight.  To competently manage any situation, accurate information is a requirement.  Americans require precise data about the COVID pandemic to analyze the performance of our leaders and assess personal risk.  Unfortunately, it is becoming more apparent that the corporate media and public health officials have subjected us to inaccurate data and word games for the last two years.  We all remember the CNN death ticker that ran until Joe Biden's inauguration, and Americans are still subjected to regular hysteria about hospitalizations and cases.  One new statistic from New York is just the tip of the iceberg on how the "experts" have manipulated some Americans into mass hysteria. [...] The early results are in, and in New York state, 43% of patients listed as COVID hospitalizations did not list the virus as an admission diagnosis.  They simply tested positive on the compulsory testing for all patients.  In New York City alone, 51% of those listed as COVID hospitalizations have admissions diagnoses that do not include COVID.

Post Office Holds Woman's Foreign Shipment of Ivermectin at the Request of the FDA.  The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Customs and Border officials captured two small packages of Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine at Chicago's O'Hare Airport recently.  The two drugs would not have raised an eyebrow before the COVID pandemic.  But since the Democrats and media politicized the completely safe, inexpensive, and effective medications the Customs agents are on the lookout for these cheap drugs.  Meanwhile, Mexican cartels continue to smuggle record amounts of fentanyl into the country this year.  Now, a Gateway Pundit reader has received a letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding a shipment containing Ivermectin that she bought from a foreign country is being held by the post office.

Fortune and History.  Much has been written about American decline.  Often one's rivals look ten feet tall and it's easy to forget that both Russia and China have problems their own of their own.  In an effort to achieve a zero spread of Covid, Beijing is imprisoning whole cities. [...] Some of China's woes are caused by the failure of Beijing's own systems to meet their ambitious goals.  First it mandated the installation of a contact tracing app as a requirement for physical movement, even in Hong Kong.  Then the app collapsed.

The CDC's Flawed Case for Wearing Masks in School.  The debate over child masking in schools boiled over again this fall, even above its ongoing high simmer.  The approval in late October of COVID-19 vaccines for 5-to-11-year-olds was for many public-health experts an indication that mask mandates could finally be lifted.  Yet with cases on the rise in much of the country, along with anxiety regarding the Omicron variant, other experts and some politicians have warned that plans to pull back on the policy should be put on hold.  Scientists generally agree that, according to the research literature, wearing masks can help protect people from the coronavirus, but the precise extent of that protection, particularly in schools, remains unknown — and it might be very small.  What data do exist have been interpreted into guidance in many different ways.  The World Health Organization, for example, does not recommend masks for children under age 6.  The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control recommends against the use of masks for any children in primary school.

'I'm the Big Problem:' COVID-19 Whistleblower on Why She Won't Be Silent Despite Threats to Her Life.  Her scientific conclusions about the COVID-19 pandemic and the origins of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus are controversial.  The jury is still out on her views that the CCP virus is the result of a secret 20-year-old bioweapons research program by the Chinese regime that includes coronaviruses.  But despite pushback from fellow scientists, her former employer, and even her now-estranged husband — who she said tried to poison her — COVID-19 whistleblower Dr. Yan Li-meng says it was "very easy" for her to risk her life and career to speak up about her observations of the initial outbreak.  "I'm the big problem," the virologist told EpochTV's "Crossroads" program.  Yan was a member of the well-connected WHO influenza H5 Reference Lab based at the University of Hong Kong School of Public Health — a key emergency disease lab for the Chinese government.  "They [the CCP] need to disappear me," she said.

Gates, Fauci, and Daszak charged with Genocide in Court Filing.  In a stunning 46-page legal filing to the International Criminal Court on December 6, an intrepid attorney and seven applicants accused Anthony Fauci, Peter Daszak, Melinda Gates, William Gates III, and twelve others of numerous violations of the Nuremberg Code.  These included various crimes against humanity and war crimes as defined by the Rome Statutes, Articles 6, 7, 8, 15, 21, and 53.

Biden's claim that this is a pandemic of the unvaxxed took a big hit this weekend.  Biden's declining brain has a phrase and he's sticking to it:  COVID, he insists, is "a pandemic of the unvaccinated."  However, the weekend revealed two more high-profile, heavily vaccinated people confessing that they, too, caught COVID: Geraldo Rivera and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez!  The schadenfreude is delicious.  Saturday brought news that Geraldo Rivera has tested positive for COVID. [...] Meanwhile, Ocasio-Cortez is out sick, too, putting the lie to the "pandemic of the unvaccinated" narrative. [...] I haven't been keeping score but I'm pretty sure that lots of very famous vaccinated people who couldn't sneer enough at the unvaccinated are getting diagnosed.  A short list includes Lupita Nyong'o, Whoopi Goldberg, former Rep. Katie Hill, and Ana Navarro — and of course, now Geraldo and Sandy.  The club of vaccinated people getting COVID just keeps growing larger and less exclusive.

U.K. Anesthetist Tells British Health Secretary the Mandatory Vaccination Rules Make No Sense for Those with Natural Immunity.  The U.K. government has passed a law forcing all doctors with direct patient contact to undergo vaccination or face removal from their NHS job on April 1st.  Approximately 90% of U.K. medical staff at King's College in London have been vaccinated; however, a loss of ten percent of critical care providers could cause a problem.  After spending the last two years treating COVID patients, Dr. Steve James confronted the British health authorities about the vaccine policy that increasingly makes no sense.  During his visit to King's College Hospital in south London, for the first time U.K. Health Minister Sajid Javid -who has no medical experience- was confronted by Dr. James, who has natural immunity as a result of a prior recovery from COVID-19, who told Minister Javid the rules make no sense.

Pfizer Forced Governments Around the World to Sign Secret Agreements.  Pfizer has been exposed multiple times for their crimes against humanity, now we have government officials showing you exactly what the company is doing in order to force the world to not only take their vax indefinitely, but also forcing the governments to target any citizens who refuse to abide by the rules of an unelected company that refuses to take any responsibility for deaths caused by their jab.  [Video clip]

Sonia Sotomayor roasted after spreading false information about child COVID hospitalizations.  Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor came under withering criticism Friday after she falsely suggested that upwards of 100,000 children in the United States are hospitalized from COVID-19, many of them on ventilators.  During oral arguments on the Biden administration's mandate on private businesses for employees to be either vaccinated or frequently tested, Sotomayor drastically overstated the number of young people who have fallen severely ill from coronavirus.  "We have hospitals that are almost at full capacity with people severely ill on ventilators.  We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition, many on ventilators," she said.

'Think Twice Before You Vaccinate Your Kids,' Dr. Robert Malone Warns Parents on COVID-19 Shots.  Dr. Robert Malone, a virologist and immunologist who has contributed significantly to the technology of mRNA vaccines, issued a strong caution for those who seek to have their children vaccinated against COVID-19.  "Think twice before you vaccinate your kids.  Because if something bad happens, you can't go back and say, 'whoops, I want a do-over,'" Malone told EpochTV's "American Thought Leaders" program in an interview, Part 1 of which premiered on Sunday [1/9/2022].  He also said, "It is clear that parents should think twice about vaccinating their child," adding that serious adverse events can occur and can be "so severe that it puts your child in the hospital."

Study: 20-30% of the Population Will DIE Due to the COVID-19 Vax Destroying Your Immune System.  This holistic doctor who has read many of the studies in the mainstream media and corrupt doctors and 'scientists' around the globe continues to attack despite overwhelming evidence showing the studies are accurate.  This doctor says her findings have revealed that 20-30% of the population will more than likely die after receiving their 4th booster shot, possibly even earlier, as the covid-19 vax introduces over 80 foreign bacteria to the body while at the same time limiting the body from fighting back against those bacteria's, It also includes strains of H.I.V and many other substances that have been proven throughout the last several decades to be horrible for humans.  [Video clip]

Rand Paul: 'Is Fauci Advising Justice Sotomayor?'.  Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) asked if Dr. Anthony Fauci is "advising" Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor after she touted falsehoods during oral arguments on Friday at the Supreme Court as justices weighed President Joe Biden's coercive vaccine mandates.  "We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition, many on ventilators" from the coronavirus, Sotomayor asserted on Friday, raising eyebrows.  After the remarks surfaced, Sen. Paul, a prominent critic of Anthony Fauci, tweeted:  "Sotomayor: 'over 100,000 children... in serious condition, many on ventilators' Is Fauci advising Justice Sotomayor?  Will YouTube censor her?"

Omicron May Be About as Deadly as the Seasonal Flu, New Data Shows.  The Omicron variant is far less deadly than earlier variants.  It might even be comparable to the seasonal flu, according to new reports.  "Omicron could be even less deadly than flu, scientists believe in a boost to hopes that the worst of the pandemic is over," the Daily Mail reported.  "Some experts have always maintained that the coronavirus would eventually morph into a seasonal cold-like virus as the world develops immunity through vaccines and natural infection.  But the emergence of the highly-mutated Omicron variant appears to have sped the process up."  "Covid killed one in 33 people who tested positive at the peak of the devastating second wave last January, compared to just one in 670 now," the Mail noted.  "But experts believe the figure could be even lower because of Omicron."

Early Outpatient COVID Treatment — Why is There Still no Plan?  For most infections, early treatment is imperative to prevent late complications.  Gangrene infection in the toe must be treated aggressively to prevent losing not only the toe, but also a foot or leg if the infection is inadequately treated and spreads.  Those with cardiovascular disease are treated with statins and blood thinners as outpatients to prevent more serious disease and subsequent hospital care for stroke and heart attack with a much higher probability of disability or death.  COVID has been with us for almost two years and yet there are still not officially and medical establishment endorsed outpatient treatment protocols to keep infected individuals out of hospitals, which is where more serious problems begin, from secondary hospital infections, ventilators, and ultimately death.

Tennis Star, Nikoloz Basilashvili, Has To Drop Out Of Australian Sydney Cup, Could Not Breathe During Match.  Tennis star Nikoloz Basilashvili was forced to retire after struggling to breathe and needing treatment from a doctor.  The Georgian player was representing his country in the ATP Cup in Sydney.  But in his singles match on Wednesday against Greece's Stefanos Tsitsipas, play was suddenly halted when Basilashvili was serving at 4-1 down in the first set.  [Video clip]

What to Do with Feckless Republicans?  Our hapless government gives every indication that it's making up its COVID policy as it goes along, without any regard for actual science.  Instead, complete and utter allegiance to political considerations (such as perpetuating the "threat" of COVID in order to maintain fraudulent mail-in voting) rules the day.  The opening in the common cloth mask is four times larger than the virus particle (500 nanowebers vs. 125 nanowebers, giving rise to the saying, "It's like trying to stop a swarm of mosquitoes with a chain-link fence"), yet the government tells the public to "mask up."  Children have a demonstrable natural resistance to COVID, yet the government imposes vaccine mandates on children under 12 years of age when the statistical likelihood of an adverse reaction to the vaccine greatly exceeds the chances of a bad COVID event in children.  The government yelps daily that we are experiencing a "pandemic of the unvaccinated," yet a huge proportion of new omicron COVID infections are those who've been not only vaccinated, but boosted as well.

The Four Horsemen of the Left's Artificial Apocalypse.  [#1] The Chinese Flu may be a minor pestilence, but after two years of scientific dictatorship taking hold around the world, it is clear that the lockdowns, small business devastation, church closures, and punishments for disobeying arbitrary and capricious mandates devised by petty tyrants have all been about conditioning national populations to accept total government control over their lives.  Plain and simple:  Governments love the virus they have taught the world to fear.  It is their weapon of choice for initiating, in their own words, a "Great Reset" that allows them to conquer free nations and remake them into slave states mastered by a small coterie of the fantastically wealthy and politically powerful.

Denial of Early Covid-19 Treatment — A Crime Against Humanity.  Americans citizens were recently coerced into being part of the test or control groups of a medical experiment, without adequate knowledge and without their consent.  Hundreds of thousands of Americans likely died from the resulting denial of timely and adequate treatment of Covid-19 and more importantly, its preventable secondary conditions.  This was an egregious violation of The Nuremberg Code on human rights.  The time has come for jurisprudence and restitution to those harmed.

Biden's Vaccine Idolatry is Not Working.  President Biden won the White House promising to resolve the Covid crisis, and prematurely declared victory on July 4th so he could shift attention to his Build Back Better boondoggle.  As America's Covid deaths in his first year exceeded those in President Trump's last year, liberals are eager to blame conservatives for refusing to "follow the science."  Biden has framed vaccination as self-evident patriotic duty — rather than a personal choice based on risk tolerance and individual circumstances — giving liberals another excuse to feel morally superior.  Today's Supreme Court hearing on vaccine mandates for large companies and health care facilities provides an opportunity to give Americans the responsibility to make their own heath care decisions.  As President Obama opposed health insurance mandates before he was for them, Biden once opposed vaccine mandates.  Biden's employer mandate in September conveniently allowed him to demonstrate executive action.  His approval ratings had dropped to their then-lowest levels, thanks to the messy withdrawal from Afghanistan and rise in covid cases.

Supreme Court Just Heard Oral Arguments in Vaccine Mandate Cases.  Here Are the Takeaways.  [Scroll down]  Among other things, the justices emphasized that SARS-CoV-2 poses serious health risks to whomever it infects; that hundreds of thousands of people have been infected just since Jan. 1; that the disease it causes, COVID-19, is potentially fatal to some individuals; and that the issue itself is a simple one, to wit: whether the government's program should be allowed to go forward during the pendency of the litigation.  To the last point, those justices repeatedly questioned counsel about the harm that the public would suffer if the mandates were delayed "even for a second," as Breyer said.  In fact, most of the oral argument in the OSHA and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services cases was devoted to a discussion of the facts rather than to the law.  This is significant because no provision in the Occupational Safety and Health Act or the Medicare and Medicaid programs' statutes authorizes OSHA or the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to make medical decisions for employees by coercing them to be vaccinated, despite how dire such facts may potentially be.  In fact, no act of Congress expressly authorizes any federal agency to demand that anyone be vaccinated against any disease.

The Supreme Court will probably toss out the tyranical OSHA vaccine mandates.  Let's be clear what the issue is here.  The issue before the court is not whether vaccination is good or bad.  All nine of the Justices have been fully vaccinated and have also received boosters (as I have).  It's fair to conclude that the Justices all think vaccinations are good, at least for people of their demographic.  Nor is the issue whether state or federal government can impose vaccine mandates on the population.  They probably can, and occasionally have.  In oral argument yesterday, Justice Gorsuch noted in passing that he recently rejected a challenge to a vaccine mandate imposed by the state government of New Mexico.  Similarly, Congress could pass a law imposing a vaccine mandate or authorizing the Executive Branch to impose one.  What's at issue in this case is much narrower.  It's whether the Executive Branch via the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA") can impose vaccine mandates without specific authorization from Congress.  The six conservative justices signaled that they think the answer is no.

FDA Fact Sheet for Healthcare providers for Paxlovid.

FDA Fact Sheet for Healthcare providers for Molnupiravir.

FDA Fact Sheet for Healthcare providers for Ivermectin.  Ivermectin is a member of the avermectin class of broad-spectrum antiparasitic agents which have a unique mode of action.  Compounds of the class bind selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells.  This leads to an increase in the permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions with hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell, resulting in paralysis and death of the parasite.

The FDA Wants to Hide Pre-Licensure Data Until You're Dead and Now the CDC Wants to Hide the Post-Licensure Safety Data.  Three prior posts explained how the FDA seeks to delay for 75+ years full production of Pfizer's pre-licensure safety data.  While we have that fight, we submitted a request to the CDC, on behalf of ICAN, for the deidentified post-licensure safety data for the Covid-19 vaccines in the CDC's v-safe system.  Even though this data is available in deidentified form (meaning, it includes no personal health information), the CDC refused to produce this data claiming it is not deidentified.  So, on behalf of ICAN, we filed a federal lawsuit against the CDC and its parent entity, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), to force the CDC to produce this data to the public.  The CDC should have no issue doing so because it has already made this data available to a private company — Oracle — in deidentified form.  It is telling that Larry Ellison's company can see the data American taxpayers paid the CDC to collect but the average American and independent scientists cannot?!  What is the v-safe system you may ask?  Since rolling out the Covid-19 vaccines, the FDA and CDC have stated that their primary safety monitoring system, VAERS, is unreliable.  The CDC therefore deployed a new safety monitoring system for COVID-19 vaccines called "v-safe."  V-safe is a smartphone app that allows vaccine recipients to "tell CDC about any side effects after getting the COVID-19 vaccine."

Boeing halts vaccine mandates for US workers.  Boeing announced Friday [12/17/2021] that it will suspend the company's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for U.S. employees.  The aircraft manufacturer said in an internal memo that it made the decision after a federal appeals court last month upheld its stay on President Biden's vaccine mandate for companies with at least 100 employees, Reuters reported.  The number of Boeing employees who have sought a vaccine exemption for medical or religious reasons has surged to more than 11,000 people, which is around 8 percent of its U.S. workers, according to Reuters.  The company's vaccine mandate has also resulted in the other 92 percent of their employees in the U.S. having received the vaccine or having reported a religious or medical accommodation.

Why This New Virus Testing Makes No Sense.  Before 2020, we called routine coronavirus infections: a cold, the flu, or pneumonia, according to severity.  We hardly ever used any tests to identify the virus.  Before 2020, we called routine coronavirus infections a cold when mild, a strong cold when more symptomatic, and the flu when accompanied by fever.  If the flu led to lung infection, we called it either respiratory infection or pneumonia and gave antibiotics, and the infection would be cured in 99.9% of cases, unless the patient was frail, elderly or immunocompromised in which case the recovery rate could fall, but was always in the range of if not higher than ~95% of severe infection cases.  If we were to have routinely tested everyone for spike proteins or other coronavirus target genes, we would have found them in approximately one third of what we call winter colds or flus if not higher.  This is likely to be what is happening now: tests include gene targets shared with other common coronaviruses, and may result in positives to other coronaviruses too in certain circumstances.  Fu

Oregon Health Authority: 622 Fully Vaccinated Residents Died Of COVID.  We were told the experimental COVID vaccines were going to "stop the spread."  Yet, over 620 residents of Oregon died of COVID-19 despite being fully vaccinated, recently published state data shows. [...] Of those who died of Covid, 314 were recipients of the Pfizer vaccine, 167 were recipients of the Moderna vaccine and 84 were recipients of the Johnson and Johnson shot.  Oregon Health Authority data as well as data from the Center for Disease Control falls deaf on the ears of politicians who are hellbent on prolonging the pandemic.

Vaccinated People Who Had Severe COVID-19 Outcomes Had at Least One Risk Factor, Study Suggests.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published a study on Jan. 7 which found that every one of the 189 vaccinated people who experienced a severe outcome after contracting COVID-19 had at least one risk factor, like being 65 or older.  Scientists affiliated with the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases studied approximately 1,228,664 persons aged 18 and over who completed primary vaccination from December 2020 to October 2021, receiving either Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, or an "unspecified mRNA vaccine."  Among these, 2,246 contracted COVID-19, including 327 who were hospitalized, while 189 had a severe COVID-19 outcome.  Thirty-six people had a COVID-19-related death, including nine persons discharged to hospice, the study found.

Almost half of reported NY COVID-19 hospitalizations are not due to COVID-19.  New York Gov. Kathy Hochul released data Friday breaking down COVID-19 hospitalizations by those who were admitted due to the virus and those who were admitted for other reasons but were found to have the illness.  Included in the data was a chart showing "how many hospitalized individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 were admitted for COVID-19/COVID-19 complications and how many were admitted for non-COVID-19 conditions."  According to the provided statistics, in approximately 43% of hospital admissions "COVID was not included as one of the reasons for admission."  Such cases totaled 4,928 as of Jan. 7, compared to 6,620 patients "admitted due to COVID or complications of COVID."

Republican-Appointed Ohio Solicitor General to SCOTUS: The State Can Mandate Vaccines for 'All Individuals'.  There were a lot of head-smacking moments during oral arguments before the Supreme Court regarding Joe Biden's OSHA vaccine mandate for companies with more than 100 employees.  Even though I know the left wing of the court is packed with totalitarians, it always takes my breath away to hear them opine about how the government should be allowed to exercise almost unlimited power over Americans, and their cavalier attitude about the rights of individuals.  What I did not expect to hear was Ohio Solicitor General Ben Flowers — a Republican appointee — arguing before the court that the state essentially has unlimited power to force individuals to take a vaccination.

The Oral Arguments on Biden's Vaccine Mandate Were a Total Disaster.  On Friday [1/7/2022], the Supreme Court heard arguments about the constitutionality of President Joe Biden's Wuhan coronavirus vaccine mandates for private companies with more than 100 employees.  In September 2021, Biden tasked OSHA with implementing and enforcing the mandates.  In the time since, the administration has been sued by multiple parties.  During questioning, liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor made a number of false statements about the vaccine's ability to prevent transmission of the virus.  While it may protect against death or hospitalization, the vaccine does not prevent transmission.

Conceit, Lies, Greed, and the Covid Debacle.  If you haven't seen the CDC map of Covid "Community Transmission in the US by County," it's practically all red, meaning transmission is at its highest level.  The U.S. is awash in Covid infections. [...] The critical question is:  Will enough of us draw the right lessons from the pandemic or are we doomed to repeat our mistakes again and again?  And not just mistakes in the public health sphere.  In the name of safeguarding public health, we've granted elites blank checks.  Americans have been compliant with Covid edicts — all too compliant, for the most part, in that our fundamental rights — supposedly protected by the Constitution — were suspended.  Our businesses, schools, and churches were closed, while liquor stores, strip clubs, and abortion mills were deemed essential.  All for what?

Biden Ignores Science on COVID Vaccines, Treatments.  Although the president today [12/21/2021] invoked "overwhelming science" to justify his solutions — vaccines, boosters and masking — he provided no details to back up the science or his proposed solutions.  But why would those solutions — the same solutions he's been proposing all along — succeed now, when for the past two years, they've only failed?  The president also blamed the ongoing rise in COVID cases on those purveying "dangerous misinformation" and "peddling lies."  He called out such actors as "wrong" and "immoral" and called on them to stop.  Many, many times throughout today's speech Biden pleaded for people to "please get vaccinated."  He exhorted that people could safely celebrate Christmas, so long as they are vaccinated, boosted and wearing masks indoors.

CDC, FDA, and Media wove a web of ivermectin lies that outlives the truth.  When a Texas cattleman, seventy-nine, died last September in New Mexico after contracting covid, his family never anticipated the worldwide headlines that would ensue.  In a ballyhooed press conference, New Mexico Human Services Secretary Dr. David Scrase, the state's top health chief, announced New Mexico's first ivermectin "overdose," soon adding a second fatality allegedly from "ivermectin toxicity."  Now, Scrase has acknowledged that his repeated, what he called "offhand," assertions were groundless.  Two deaths were not caused by ivermectin, a long-used generic drug that was emerging as a covid treatment.  Instead, he said that the pair died because they "actually just delayed their care with covid."  That is a big difference.  Scrase backpedaled on December 1 in a little-noticed online press briefing and only after we pressed his agency to provide evidence for its claims of so-called "ivermectin deaths."  Officials had repeatedly said they were awaiting a toxicology report on the cattleman's death.  Yet we learned that the report was never even ordered or done, and, moreover, the man's death was ruled by the state's coroner as being from "natural" causes.

Long Island county overrides NY Governor's mask mandate.  As an early New Year's present, New York Governor Kathy Hochul issued a renewed face mask mandate for all public schools.  Numerous upstate counties with more conservative officials immediately announced that they would not be complying with the order, while New York City quickly embraced the idea.  But not all of the Big Apple is quite as blue as it was prior to the last set of local elections.  This week, Nassau County on Long Island also bucked the trend.  Newly elected county executive Bruce Blakeman announced that schools in his county would not be subject to the mandate and each local school board would be left to decide whether the policy should be implemented or not.  At this point, a majority of New York counties are simply ignoring the Governor's order and there doesn't seem to be anything she can do about it.

Minnesota Trucking Company CEO Warns About What [a] Vaccine Mandate Will Do to [the] Economy.  Here's a solid reference point for just one of the multitude of aspects related to the mandatory COVID vaccine and overall COVID mitigation rules that will come together to present an unavoidable outcome within the supply chain.  As CEO Eric Lawrence notes, even without the vaccine mandate, the testing mandate itself becomes an issue.  How and where exactly are truckers supposed to get these weekly, and depending on state, perhaps daily, Covid-19 tests.  How are they expected to modify their cross country routes, to avoid running afoul of the law, without having any idea where this testing is supposed to take place?  [Video clip]

20-Week Study of Clinical Outcomes of Over-the-Counter COVID-19 Prophylaxis and Treatment.  As the lethal COVID-19 pandemic enters its second year, the need for effective modalities of alleviation remains urgent.  This includes modalities that can readily be used by the public to reduce disease spread and severity.  Such preventive measures and early-stage treatments may temper the immediacy of demand for advanced anti-COVID measures (drugs, antibodies, vaccines) and help relieve strain also on other health system resources.  We present results of a clinical study with a multi-component OTC "core formulation" regimen used in a multiply exposed adult population.  Analysis of clinical outcome data from our sample of over 100 subjects — comprised of roughly equal sized regimen-compliant (test) and non-compliant (control) groups meeting equivalent inclusion criteria — demonstrates a strong statistical significance in favor of use of the core formulations.

Autopsies Prove COVID Vaccines Are Killing Massive Amounts Of People, Body Attacking Itself After Jab.  The vaccines are bad news.  Fifteen bodies were examined (all died from 7 days to 6 months after vaccination; ages 28 to 95).  The coroner or the public prosecutor didn't associate the vaccine as the cause of death in any of the cases.  However, further examination revealed that the vaccine was implicated in the deaths of 14 of the 15 cases.  The most attacked organ was the heart (in all of the people who died), but other organs were attacked as well.  The implications are potentially enormous resulting in millions of deaths.  The vaccines should be immediately halted.  The video references this paper, posted on December 10, 2021, On COVID vaccines:  why they cannot work, and irrefutable evidence of their causative role in deaths after vaccination by Sucharit Bhakdi, MD and Arne Burkhardt, MD.  It has been getting a lot of attention lately.  [Video clip]

14 Year Old Israeli Girl Survives Cancer Only To Be Killed By A COVID Shot, Makes A Video About Her Story 5 Days Before She Dies.  Sarah Jessica Blattner, a 14-year-old Israeli American lady with a hidden wellness problem, passed away in her rest on October 12th apparently from a cardiovascular disease after getting one dosage of the Pfizer injection 5 months previously.  Her moms and dads chose to ultimately speak up 3 months after her fatality and also prompted the general public not to immunize their children.  In their situation, it was a large "error."  Blattner was detected with cancer cells when she was 9 months old.  She made it through and also has actually been living cancer-free for 11 years according to her Twitter article back in 2020.  [Video clip]

Big Tech Censors mRNA Pioneer Over Vaccine Safety.  Dr. [Robert] Malone is a world-renowned molecular biologist who, in 1987 as a graduate student at the Salk Institute, mixed strands of RNA with droplets of fat and found that the substance induced human cells to begin producing proteins.  Malone wrote at the time that it might be possible to "treat RNA as a drug."  Malone's pioneering work and that of other scientists ultimately led to the development of mRNA vaccines used against COVID-19.  Malone has raised concerns about possible adverse events associated with these vaccines.  He has been critical of the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the pharmaceutical industry, claiming that they are not honestly communicating these risks to the public.  He also has faulted his fellow scientists, the news media, and others who, he believes, have marginalized scientists who have raised these concerns.

Five COVID Books You Must Read.  For the last two years, we have witnessed a war on truth.  From the censorship of key medical experts to the widespread dissemination of false information concerning the efficacy of lockdowns, masking, and vaccines, societal distrust is at an all-time high.  In this post-truth age, many have fled to the highways and byways of the internet in their search for the facts.  In this pursuit, some have found legitimate information from experts, while others have been inundated with weird and wonderful ideas from questionable sources.  For this reason, I want to suggest several books that I believe stretch our minds, challenge our presuppositions, and lead us to a perspective on COVID-19 that is concordant with reality.

My Religious Objection to the Cult of COVID.  I have sincere, deep-rooted religious, moral, and ethical objections to the notion to being compelled to take any of the experimental drugs known as "COVID-19 vaccines" (I put that in quotes because the definition of "vaccine" had to be changed last year for them to qualify as such.)  I would point out, at the outset, that it is widely recognized that religion includes not just observance and practice, but also belief.  Beliefs that are sincerely held about what is right or wrong are intrinsic to the individual, not to any organized religion, mainstream or otherwise.  To hold religious beliefs does not even require belief in God.  That said, there is nothing to my views that is outside of a mainstream understanding of religion, morality, or ethics.

'President Fauci' is not a stretch.  [Joe] Biden earned a BA in history and political science and a law degree from Syracuse University.  His academic record shows no medical or biology studies of any kind.  Biden's recent pronouncement that "this continues to be a pandemic of the unvaccinated," is straight from Dr. Fauci.  The chief White House medical advisor can boast advantages that Biden lacks.  Anthony Fauci earned a medical degree in 1966 and in 1968 hired on with the National Institutes of Health (NIH).  Fauci's bio shows no advanced degrees in molecular biology or biochemistry but in 1984 he became director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a division of the NIH.  In 1985, Fauci married Christine Grady, a nurse who later earned a PhD in philosophy and bioethics from Georgetown.  Fauci headed up AIDS policy and in 1995 his wife authored The Search for an AIDS Vaccine, which dealt with research on "human subjects," clinical drug trials and such.  Christine Grady, who is not a medical doctor, is now director of the Department of Bioethics at the National Institutes of Health, and heads the NIH section on human subjects research.

The beliefs of the COVID Cult.  The Cult of Covid practices de facto human sacrifice.  The victims include the people who have been unfortunate enough to have poor outcomes from the disease, but whom doctors have refused to treat lest they be excommunicated from their guild for violating the doctrine that there is no treatment but vaccine.  And then there is the disease itself, the Cult's devil.  Since shortly after it appeared, those who had been paying attention could see it was a particularly bad flu at worst.  Blown out of all proportion with unique attribution methods (deaths from any cause if within 60 days of infection), questionable tests to determine who is "possessed" of the virus that were never intended to be used in that way, and the notion that those who contracted it had failed to do the virtuous thing in some way.  Yes, the often-explicit suggestion that someone getting sick had gotten that way through some moral failing, like failure to strictly follow the observances and practices of the Cult.  Perhaps they attended a group gathering other than an officially sanctioned BLM demonstration.  I have not feared getting COVID for quite some time.  There is no reason for me to.  It is simply not dangerous to someone of my health profile and effective therapeutics exist.

Dr. Nicole Saphier throws cold water on media's 'flurona' fear mongering: 'It's no surprise'.  Fox News medical contributor Dr. Nicole Saphier appeared on the network's "Fox and Friends" Thursday to shed light on what some are calling "Flurona," a medical condition so named for those who have been diagnosed as having COVID-19 and the flu simultaneously.  Host Ainsley Earhardt laid out examples of the condition, noting that the CDC has reported only 79 cases of the double infection so far in the entire nation.  Dr. Saphier said, "I love the way that the media loves to sensationalize something, and I guess this will be our new headline for the next month."  She explained that the "Flurona" is not a new mutagenic or variant of the COVID virus, rather it's simply part of getting sick.

The Vaccine Passport Pathway to a Social Credit System.  Simply put the vaccine programs are really population control programs, because by pushing vaccines the elites are pushing vaccine passports which are the first step to creating digital ID numbers on a software platform where every subject's personal information will eventually end up.  Control of information means control of the subjects.  The real-life model for this is the Chinese social credit system.  This system is, through the totalitarian perspective, a brilliant combination of national digital identification numbers combined with high surveillance technology all controlled by advanced artificial intelligence.  Each Chinese subject is branded with a digital number and the surveillance state can follow his employment, medical, criminal and schooling records, his online browsing records, his voiced political views, and even the places he visits through GPS positioning technology. If the subject so much as jaywalks across a street, it will likely be picked up by one of the millions of surveillance cameras installed in Chinese cities and run through face recognition software.

Judge Gives FDA Just Over 8 Months to Produce Pfizer's Safety Data.  A federal judge on Thursday [1/6/2022] ordered the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to produce, at a rate of 55,000 pages per month, the documents it relied on to license the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.  The rate of 55,000 pages a month would mean the FDA has just over eight months to fully produce all of Pfizer's pre-licensure safety data.  That is much faster than the 500 pages-per-month rate the FDA proposed in December 2021.  That rate would have effectively given the agency roughly 75 years to fully produce the data, Aaron Siri, a lawyer working on the case, previously observed.  U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman ordered the FDA to produce more than 12,000 pages on or before Jan. 31, which was what the FDA had proposed in part.  Pittman then ordered the agency to "produce the remaining documents at a rate of 55,000 pages every 30 days, with the first production being due on or before March 1, 2022, until production is complete."

Disappointed.  That's me — disappointed in how the mandate cases went before the SCOTUS.  I had cautioned for weeks that the legal issues regarding Administrative State were separate from the scientific and medical issues, but I held out hope that the scientific data that has emerged over the course of the two year Covid Regime would still inform the oral arguments.  Instead we got, as expected, outright lies from the liberal justices and surprisingly little informed challenges from the conservative justices.

Even SCOTUS leftists have to lie to further the left's Wuhan virus narrative.  Make no mistake about it, leftists lie.  This is especially true of leftists in politics and the media.  In fact, on most any matter dear to the left's perverse agenda, one is safer assuming that the leftist you're hearing or reading is lying.  Thus, almost no one should've been surprised at the wild (and numerous) lies hurled by Supreme Court Justices Elena Kagan, Stephen Breyer, and Sonia Sotomayor during oral arguments over the Biden Administration's private sector Wuhan Virus vaccine mandate.  Early in the hearing, Justice Kagan called the Wuhan Virus "the greatest public health danger that this country has faced in the last century."  She added, "More and more people are dying every day.  More and more people are getting sick every day.  I don't mean to be dramatic here.  I'm just sort of stating facts."  I suppose "sort of stating facts" is like "sort of telling the truth," [...] Of course, Kagan's statements here are premised on the notion that we can even trust the U.S. Wuhan Virus numbers — we can't.

Justice Sotomayor Told a Huge Whopper About Kids and COVID.  The liberal wing of the Supreme Court embarrassed itself Friday [1/7/2022] with a slew of false claims about COVID-19 during oral arguments over Joe Biden's vaccine mandates.  For example, Justice Stephen Breyer claimed hospitals are at capacity because of unvaccinated Americans with COVID.  This is false.  But perhaps the most ridiculous false claim from a Supreme Court justice came from Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who falsely claimed that 100,000 children are in "serious condition" from COVID.  "We have hospitals that are almost at full capacity with people severely ill on ventilators.  We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition, and many on ventilators," Sotomayor claimed.  This false claim can be easily fact-checked thanks to data from the Department of Health and Human Services, which says that the current number of confirmed pediatric hospitalizations with COVID in the United States is 3,342.  Those are hospitalizations with COVID, not from COVID.

Top epidemiologist Harvey Risch blasts Fauci's COVID strategy, CDC data and research.  President Biden can claim that COVID-19 remains a "pandemic of the unvaccinated" partly because "the CDC has played fast and loose with a lot of studies and data," Yale School of Public Health epidemiologist Harvey Risch says.  "We have not been careful or objective with our data," he told the John Solomon Reports podcast Friday.  "We don't even know, for example, the mortality from COVID," which the CDC pegs at more than 800,000.  Risch noted the agency told physicians to put COVID on death certificates regardless of whether they think the infection played a role.  Hospitalizations have also conflated admissions "with" and "from" COVID, he said.  As a member of a committee advising Connecticut early in the pandemic, Risch urged ignoring case counts and focusing on hospitalizations and deaths.  That advice was largely ignored until the current "sky-high" yet mild Omicron variant wave, but now "finally people are waking up to say that the cases don't matter," he said.

Arizona Supreme Court voids state vaccination, mask ban laws.  Arizona's high court has voided additions to the most-recent state budget, saying lawmakers ran afoul of provisions in the state constitution meant to simplify legislation.  Justices released their unanimous opinion Thursday in Arizona School Boards Association et al. v. State of Arizona.  The ruling affirmed a lower court ruling that said the Legislature went against two parts of the Arizona Constitution.  The opinion nullifies the state's ban on mask mandates in schools, laws shoring up local election security and other laws justices concluded had little to do with the state budget.  The constitution's "title provision" says lawmakers cannot include extemporaneous provisions into a proposal that doesn't relate to the topic it's named after.  Should those extra facets of a bill be struck down by the court, the rest of the bill would stand.

New study of Pfizer's COVID vaccine has some disturbing findings.  I just read a disturbing study of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine's efficacy by the Canadian COVID Care Alliance.  This organization comprises over 500 independent Canadian doctors, scientists, and health care practitioners.  The title of the article, "The Pfizer Inoculations for COVID-19: More Harm Than Good," is disturbing.  The article itself, which discusses the many nuances of this study, is even more distressing.  You may recall the much-reported "95% efficacy" of the vaccine against COVID-19.  We all assumed that if we were vaccinated, we would then only have a 5% chance of becoming infected.  Sounds great, but the statement is misleading.  In the Pfizer study, only 8 out of 18,198, or 0.043% of participants who received the vaccine, contracted COVID, while 162 out of 18,325, 0.884% in the control group who received injections of saline became infected.  Therefore, while there was a Relative Risk Reduction of 95%, the Actual Risk Reduction was a mere 0.84%.  This disparity certainly changes one's perspective on just how effective the vaccine is.

The Pfizer Inoculations For COVID-19 — More Harm Than Good.  Our alliance of over 500 independent Canadian doctors, scientists, and health care practitioners is committed to providing quality, balanced, evidence-based information to the Canadian public about COVID-19 so that hospitalizations can be reduced, lives saved, and our country safely restored to normal as quickly as possible. [...] The federal, provincial and municipal governments in Canada have a responsibility to protect the health of Canadians as well as our Charter Rights and Freedoms.  Any medical interventions approved by Health Canada must first be proven safe.  Due diligence in research, as well as adherence to established protocols of the doctor/patient relationship, informed consent and scientific inquiry are essential to carrying out that responsibility.  Deviating from those practices, causing harm and failing to disclose risks of harm is negligent at best.

Leftist Supreme Court justices are trying to legislate their ignorance.  After reading about Friday's Supreme Court hearing the power of federal agencies to impose far-reaching vaccine mandates, a friend asked me how Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor could be so completely ignorant about COVID.  The snarky answer was that the "Wise Latina" was drawing on her inner wisdom, obviating the need for facts.  However, given that Justices Breyer and Kagan were just as ill-informed, and all three were pushing to define public policy rather than analyze the Constitution, the accurate answer is that leftist Supreme Court justices care nothing about the law.  They view themselves as an unelected legislature and are guided by their personal fears.

Supreme Court Seems Skeptical of Biden Vaccination Mandates.  The Supreme Court seemed skeptical of the Biden administration's bold claim that it has the authority to impose vaccination mandates applying to more than 84 million private sector employees and to workers in federally funded health care facilities.  In a rare Friday sitting the high court seemed broadly receptive to the idea that states have authority to impose vaccination mandates but questioned the ability of federal agencies to do the same.  The court decided Dec. 22, 2021, to fast-track emergency applications pertaining to challenges to the two mandates' lawfulness as those challenges work their way through the lower courts.  Various business groups, along with Ohio, Missouri, Louisiana and two dozen other states, want the federal mandates blocked.

Citigroup to terminate unvaccinated workers under 'no jab, no job' policy.  Citigroup is set to begin enforcing its "no jab, no job" policy next week, making it the first Wall Street bank to implement a vaccine mandate.  The New York-headquartered bank said in October that it would require all US employees to be vaccinated against Covid as a condition of their employment in line with a Biden administration policy requiring workers supporting government contracts to be fully vaccinated.  The Biden policy has been widely challenged in the courts, and is currently before the US supreme court following requests by Republican state officials and business groups to block it.  Citigroup also said it would examine requests for exemptions on religious or medical grounds, or any other accommodation by state or local law, on a case-by-case basis.

Left-Wing SCOTUS Justices Spew COVID Misinformation To Defend Biden's Unconstitutional Vaxx Mandate.  The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on Friday over the Biden administration's vaccine mandate for private employers during which several justices made repeated false claims about COVID-19 and the effectiveness of the jab.  The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) rolled out its emergency temporary standard demanding that private employers with 100 or more employees require vaccinations at the request of the Biden administration late last year.  The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a temporary stay, however, preventing enforcement.  Challengers of the OSHA standard argued on Friday that the agency has no right to force a medical decision on workers, but several justices pushed back on this idea using false narratives about COVID-19 to justify the federal government's vaccine mandate.  Justice Elena Kagan suggested that getting the vaccine reduces the spread of COVID-19, a dubious claim that's contested by the rapidly rising number of breakthrough cases worldwide.

Liberal Supreme Court justices spread COVID-19 misinformation.  Justices Elena Kagan, Stephen Breyer, and Sonia Sotomayor confirmed during Friday's oral arguments that they are firmly in favor of President Joe Biden's private sector vaccine mandate.  However, the facts they relied upon to make their case were flat-out wrong.  Kagan began by claiming "the best way" to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is "for people to get vaccinated," and the "second best way" is to "wear masks."  Neither claim is true.  While the vaccines appear to slow the spread of COVID-19 and reduce the chance of death, there is absolutely no evidence that they prevent transmission, especially not against the much more contagious omicron variant.

Mass Formation may explain America's crazed COVID reaction.  [Scroll down]  Most everyone, when the virus hit, focused on the virus and nothing else and were hypnotized by staring at it non-stop.  The theory says that once everyone is focused so intently, one or more leaders can jump in and seize the moment.  Whatever they say, the hypnotized will focus on and believe.  Outside thinkers — dissenters — must be attacked and destroyed.  In other words, exactly what's been happening.  Thanks to Dr. Malone and a few others, Rumble has discussions from others about this phenomenon.  Dr. Mattias Desmet, a psychologist and professor in Belgium, at Ghent University, developed the hypothesis.  His field of study, group dynamics, led to his positing that a population is decoupled from one another — which characterizes this new age of faceless online communication and physical isolation, where 60% of people polled say they have no meaningful relationships in their lives — it is ripe for this type of thought takeover.

Progressives Finally Realize That Covid Is Not a 'Moral Failing'.  Earlier this week, CNN's Chris Cillizza lamented that, throughout the pandemic, "Societally we unknowingly turned having Covid into some sort of judgment on your character."  To remedy this, Cillizza suggested, "We need to recognize that getting Covid isn't a moral failing!  It's a super infectious disease that you can protect against, sure, but can't guarantee you won't get it."  "Unknowingly"?  "We need to recognize"?  "Societally"?  Does Chris Cillizza live in a sensory-deprivation tank?  There has been nothing "unknowing" about the implication that catching Covid is evidence of a "moral failing."  It has been the core of the progressive response to the disease.  We see it every time that someone who disagrees with the maximalist approach to lockdowns, restrictions, or mandates is labeled a "Covidiot."  We see it every time the governor of Florida is described stupidly as "DeathSantis," or the governor of Texas is accused of belonging to a "death cult," or any politician or writer with a different risk calculus than Anthony Fauci is charged with wanting "to kill grandma."

Will We Reach Herd Immunity Against the Tyranny Variant?  The fact that over 800,000 people in the United States have reportedly died from COVID-19 is barely noted by the corporate propagandists, no doubt because it isn't politically useful now that Bad Orange Man is gone.  Or it could be that the media doesn't want to highlight yet another failure of the woefully incompetent Biden Administration with Grandpa Dementia barely cracking the 40 point approval mark.  If Trump were still in the White House, we all know 800,000 deaths would have been trumpeted on every front page, the topic of every single leftist outlet's headline for weeks.  CNN would have already resurrected their morbid death count ticker claiming that every single death was due to great and terrible Trump.  The fact is 800,000 is probably inflated, much like everything else in this country right now.  We have long suspected that hospitals and hospices have attributed more deaths to COVID than is accurate (particularly since they were literally financially incentivized to do so).

Australian Government Detains #1 Tennis Player in World, Novak Djokovic, Cancels His Visa and Plans to Deport Over Vaccine Status.  The totalitarian regime in Australia has created a real mess after they granted tennis superstar Novak Djokovic, the #1 player in the world, a visa to enter the country and play in the Australian Open, and then detained him at the airport, cancelled the visa, and announced they will forcibly deport him.  The Serbs have promised to fight the Australians in the streets.  Why?  Because of Djokovic's vaccination status, of course.

Monarch Fauci Turns Increasingly Desperate.  The simple truth is that as long as Fauci is permitted his unconstitutional sway over American public policy, his mandates will never, ever, ever, ever stop.  The only tool this undistinguished career bureaucrat has in his arsenal is a hammer, and you are his nails.  No matter how erratic or contradictory his advice has been, the fact that COVID is still among us is your fault.  Therefore, the punitive ukases will continue until moral improves.  You masked when you shouldn't have and unmasked too soon, or didn't mask at all.  You gamely lined up for the first "vaccine" shots when the left decried them because they were developed under the hated Donald Trump.  And then you became vaccine-hesitant — and thus an Enemy of the People — as soon as it became clear that they didn't work as advertised.  Further, your pitiful attempts to selfishly salvage your puny livelihoods was an offense against the health of the American public — and, after all, what could possibly be more important than health?  Certainly not your children's education.  Certainly not the formerly booming American economy, including energy independence, that long-sought bipartisan goal that became reality under the hated Trump.  And certainly not the Bill of Rights, including free speech, free assembly, and freedom of religion.

Italy mandates COVID-19 vaccine for 60 and up; Austria, Greece also imposed sweeping rules.  Italy is requiring the COVID-19 vaccine for persons over 50, making it the latest European nation to take drastic steps to increase uptake and ease the strain on hospitals.  Officials decided to mandate the shots for older persons, who tend to see worse outcomes from COVID-19, amid another surge.  Italy was one of the first western nations to be hit hard by the pandemic in early 2020.  "We want to slow down the growth of the contagion curve and push the Italians who have not yet vaccinated themselves to do so," Prime Minister Mario Draghi said.  "We take action in particular on the age groups that are most at risk of hospitalization to reduce the pressure on hospitals and save lives."  CNN reports violators could be fined between 600 and 1,500 euros under the rule, which is in effect until June 15.

Postal Service asks for exemption from Biden vaccine mandate.  The United States Postal Service has asked the Occupational Safety and Health Administration for "temporary relief" from the administration's vaccination mandate for organizations with more than 100 workers.  "The Postal Service's request for additional time in implementing the [mandate] is directly related to our critical and unique role in American life," said a Jan. 4 letter to OSHA from Doug A. Tulino, deputy postmaster general and chief human resources officer.

California Extends Indoor Mask Mandate.  California's mask mandate for indoor public settings will remain in place until at least Feb. 15, officials announced.  The state's Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly made the announcement on Jan. 5, citing a rise in COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations.  The statewide mandate was scheduled to expire on Jan. 15, one month after it was reintroduced.  Among the indoor public spaces affected are retail stores, restaurants, theaters, family entertainment centers, and government offices.  Ghaly said residents should consider wearing higher-grade masks, not simply scarves or loose-fitting cloth face-coverings.  He said many masks that people donned in the early days of the pandemic are "not as helpful today," urging people to consider masks that are well-fitted on the face without gaps or ventilators.

CDC recommends Pfizer recipients get booster after 5 months.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended on Tuesday [1/4/2022] that Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine recipients get a booster dose five months after their second shot instead of the previously approved six months.  The agency endorsed the shorter period after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized the reduced timeline on Monday for those who received the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.  The CDC still suggests that Johnson & Johnson and Moderna recipients receive their boosters two months and six months, respectively, after completing the primary series.  The CDC also suggested moderately and severely immunocompromised 5- to 11-year-olds get an additional dose about a month after their second shot, aligning their recommendations for the age group with immunocompromised adults.

Navy Servicemembers Seeking COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate Religious Exemptions [have been] Handed [a] Favorable Ruling.  A federal judge in Texas granted 35 Navy service members' court motion challenging the Pentagon's COVID-19 vaccine mandate with religious exemptions Monday [1/3/2022].  Mike Berry, who is representing the Navy SEALs on behalf of First Liberty Institute, told the Daily Caller News Foundation that the ruling is a win for religious freedom.  "We are very grateful for this ruling in favor of our clients," Berry said.  "No longer can the Navy force service members to choose between their faith and serving their country."  He added:  "If religious freedom means anything, it must mean that those who are sworn to protect our freedoms should not be forced to lose those very same freedoms."

Health 'Experts' Finally Admit Masks Control People, Not Viruses.  We've been censored.  Hollered at by Karens in the grocery store and sometimes even outdoors.  We've been lectured, demonized, scoffed at, and called murderers and rubes — all for the sin of ignoring mask security theater and daring to show the lower half of our faces in public.  That's why it's just remarkable to hear the experts now admit that the same face coverings required in so many establishments and localities are not stopping any virus from spreading.  CNN medical analyst Leana Wen, who was previously president of abortion giant Planned Parenthood, said so on the network — and not only in reference to the current variant, as if new data has suddenly justified a change in guidance.  She explicitly said cloth masks haven't been effective since the dawn of the Wuhan virus.

The Vaccine is a Dud.  As time goes on, we are learning more and more about Covid 19 and the Covid 19 vaccines.  To date the most important and surprising information about the vaccines is that they do not prevent the vaccinated from contracting or transmitting the virus.  The irony is that the CDC, a government agency, readily admits this but other sectors of the government are carrying on as if this vitally important new information did not exist at all.  Take for example Biden's OSHA which, before it was temporarily halted by a Circuit Court ruling, ordered the unvaccinated but not the vaccinated employees of private companies to undergo inconvenient weekly Covid tests even though other parts of the government were admitting that the vaccinated transmit the virus as readily as the unvaccinated.  The whole moral justification of forcing people to take the vaccine is to protect others even if the "hesitant" don't want to risk taking the jab due to the escalating problem of vaccine related deaths and serious injuries.  But we now know that the vaccine is a dud.  While it can reduce symptoms of Covid, it cannot prevent the vaccinated from catching and transmitting Covid.  And yet the government is acting as if none of these matters and is continuing to push harsh mandates upon those who do not want to play vaccine roulette and take the risk of a vaccine injury.

Texas doctor on the emergence of Flurona:  "I don't think we should be scared.".  The bad news is that the flu and COVID-19 have been found to produce what is being called a "twindemic". Cases of the flu are surfacing at the same time as COVID-19 and people are testing positive for both.  The good news is that at least one expert is saying to stay calm.  For once it doesn't seem to merit predictions of doom and gloom.  Flurona is real.  It is a combination of the flu and coronavirus.  Cases are beginning to surface.  The first report of such a finding was in Israel.  The Times of Israel first reported a case of flurona with an unvaccinated pregnant woman at the Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva.  Health officials expect an increase during the winter months, the traditional season for the flu, as the Omicron variant quickly spreads across the country.  Patients will test positive for both viruses.  It isn't the first time the coronavirus has merged with the flu.  It happened in the very early days of the pandemic.

CNN Medical Guest:  We Need to Do More to Punish Unvaccinated Americans.  Arthur Caplan, who is the director of Medical Ethics at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, told CNN on Wednesday [1/5/2022] more things need to be done to punish Americans who are not vaccinated for COVID-19.  A clearly perturbed anchor John Berman asked Caplan, "Why should anyone who is boosted bother at this point to do anything that makes the unvaccinated more safe?"  "Well, look, I want us to act as a community.  I want us to act as a team.  When you're fighting a war, you need all hands on deck.  I don't want to reject those who still haven't done the right thing.  I'll condemn them.  I'll shame them.  I'm blame them.  But I don't want to exclude them.  They've got to come around," Caplan replied.

Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy Says CDC Quarantine Change [is] Likely to Happen Soon.  Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, the husband of a very sketchy Chinese communist party shadow official that no one ever discusses, told CNN today the CDC is likely to revise the quarantine guidance to include a negative test for COVID before exit. [...] Here's why this is going to be exponentially more problematic, and be cautious who you tell about this.  First, imagine the impact to the U.S. industrial and service economy when workers who have ordinary colds and sniffles are now taking five days off work, and cannot come back until they test negative for the cold/flu virus.  That's what the CDC was trying to avoid when the original guidance was modified.  If essential workers with ordinary sniffles, sneezes, coughs, stuffy-heads and general aches and pains do not come to work because these are Omicron symptoms, the U.S. econo my is going to be in staggeringly big trouble at a macro and micro level.  Add to that an inflated and 'blown out of proportion' reaction to the seasonal cold with a demand for a negative test, and there are limited to zero tests readily available, and it is not hard to see what happens to business operations throughout the country.

Crimes against Our Country.  We know what you did.  You engineered and patented a gain-of-function virus at the same time you conspired with pharma companies to devise and patent pseudo-vaccines, and then you loosed both of them on the public.  You didn't just fail to adequately test the "vaccines" cooked up by Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson, but you deliberately botched the trials and lied about it.  You created rich $$ incentives for hospitals to mis-treat Covid patients by failing to use known, safe, effective anti-virals.  You conspired with social and news media to suppress information about those common anti-viral drugs that would have informed many patients' decisions and saved thousands of lives.  You treated late-stage patients dying of Covid-induced vascular disorder with the ineffective and toxic drug remdesivir that Dr. Fauci had developed unsuccessfully for an ebola outbreak years ago.  (Nurses turned so cynical about the remdesivir protocol that they nicknamed it "run-death-is-near.")  You prompted government officials to lockdown society, force useless masking, and now to coerce "vaccination" by threatening to deprive citizens of their livelihoods.

Life in Zero-Covid Antarctica.  In October of 2021, I deployed to McMurdo Station, Antarctica for the second time. [...] In the time between my two Antarctic deployments, I received a Master of Public Health degree from Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health.  There, I learned the importance of evidence-based public health interventions, of carefully analyzing health risks, of targeting interventions based on those risks, and of always considering unintended negative consequences.  So, throughout the pandemic, I have been baffled to see many public health professionals and scientific institutions advocate for broad, extreme, and unprecedented measures without supporting evidence.  The NSF's scientifically inconsistent Covid policies for Antarctica are the most prominent examples of this fallacy I have now experienced.

Did the U.S. really have a million COVID cases yesterday?  I mean, we certainly had a million infections.  Many multiples of a million, no doubt.  But confirmed cases?  [Tweet]  To put that in perspective, until last month the most cases the U.S. had ever seen in a 24-hour span was 300,000 during last January's brutal wave.  The most any country had ever seen was India during its own horrendous surge of Delta in May, when it recorded 414,000.  We're in uncharted territory now.  But we shouldn't put much stock in it, and not just because the hyper-infectiousness of Omicron combined with the scarcity of tests means the case numbers are less reliable than ever.

New York teacher arrested after illegally giving COVID-19 vaccine to teen.  On Friday, a Long Island teacher in New York was arrested after illegally administering a COVID-19 vaccine to a teen without a medical license and without advising the parent of the teenager beforehand.  Nassau County Police Department said that 54-year-old Laura Parker Russo of Sea Cliff, New York, was arrested after she "administered an injection of what is believed to be a Covid Vaccine to a 17-year-old male victim."

Prestigious Mayo Clinic fires 700 workers for failing to get COVID vaccine.  The prestigious Mayo Clinic fired 700 employees who refused to comply with the hospital's COVID-19 vaccine policy.  Workers had until Monday to get their first shot or obtain a medical or religious exemption to the healthcare system's vaccine mandate.  The clinic, which is the largest employer in its home state of Minnesota, reportedly granted the majority of exemption requests.  'While Mayo Clinic is saddened to lose valuable employees, we need to take all steps necessary to keep our patients, workforce, visitors and communities safe,' the clinic told the Star Tribune.

Governor Greg Abbott Sues Biden Administration Over National Guard Vaccine Requirement.  On Tuesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R-Texas) filed a lawsuit against the administration of Joe Biden over the federal vaccine requirement for members of the National Guard.  As reported by CNN, Abbott's lawsuit declares that the vaccine mandate for the Texas National Guard infringes on "Governor Abbott's authority as Commander in Chief and on Texas's sovereignty," and that "it is unlawful for Defendants to attempt to override the Governor's authority to govern his troops, and then leave him to deal with the harms that they leave in their wake."  The lawsuit is in response to a policy implemented by an August memorandum from Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, declaring that all members of the American military must be vaccinated or else face discharge.  Austin declared that the mandate would include non-federalized National Guard members, such as state National Guards, and that any states that defied the mandate would face a funding freeze or see members be prohibited from engaging in military duties.

Unvaxxed are 'Extremists, Misogynists, And Racists' According to Canada's Communist Prime Minister.  It's no secret that Canada's racist Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, who was caught doing blackface just a few years ago just claimed that anyone who refuses to get the death jab that is currently killing people en masse around the globe from heart attacks, strokes, to other forms of death caused by the vax, is a racist, mysoginist, or just a general extremist... all because we refuse to listen to the media and instead listen to the science.  The question is, what have they put into this death jab that they're soooooo worried about you refusing to receive.  Any time the government tries to force you to do something, it's probably not good for you according to history.  [Video clip]

High Noon at High Court for Vax Mandate.  The Supreme Court takes up the issue of vaccine mandates on Friday, holding a special hearing that is nearly unprecedented in its rushed timing.  At issue are two of Biden's mandates.  One compels the vaccination or testing of everyone who works at a 100+ employee company; the other requires vaccination of every staffer at every hospital, nursing home, or health care facility that receives funding from Medicare or Medicaid.  Will we become a country of haves and have nots concerning the Covid vaccine, whereby those who sensibly decline the vaccine are segregated in cities, schools, hospitals, and concerts?  The new year has rung in a slew of new "no vaccination, no service" rules in restaurants, bars, gyms, and even maintenance work in high-rise apartments.  This is not a fight in which the Supreme Court wanted to be, [...]

Shaming as a COVID Strategy.  When it comes to social engineering, there is more than one kind of war.  We've been witness to the war on drugs, the war on crime, the war on obesity, and most recently, the war on COVID-19.  Psyops strategies are often used in these non-traditional "wars" and some of the strategies applied are the same ones used in real warfare scenarios.  From "divide and conquer" to fearmongering, mass persuasion strategies have been deployed in the campaign to make a viral pandemic with an extremely high survival rate and virtually no threat to healthy children feel like the plague.  The pandemic is real, but quite often there is a huge gap between the picture the regime paints through its persuasion campaigns and actual reality.  One of the foundational strategies that has enabled so many of the other strategies to gain traction is the targeted and widespread use of shaming, both public and private.

Young, Brazilain Journalist Passes Out Live On Air, Suffers 5 Heart Attacks On the Way to the Hospital a Week After His Booster.  Brazilain [sic] Journalist Rafael Silva was quickly rescued and taken to the Humanitas hospital, where he is admitted to the ICU.  According to Extra, on the way, he still suffered five cardiac arrests.  "He is responding to the treatment and is moving with his hands and feet.  That's good, according to doctors.  Despite the anguish, I bring this news with joy.  We still don't know what happened to Rafael", said Kadu.  Rafael Silva is 36 years old and is the presenter of Jornal das 7, but he is covering Ademir Santos' vacation for Alterosa Alerta Sul de Minas.  He was recording for the morning when he got sick.  [Video clip]

New York Times Editor And Vaccine Shill Dies Hours After Posting About How Proudly He Was Boosted On Instagram.  A 49-year-old international reporter is dead, in a cut-and-dried story that spotlights mainstream media loyalty to big pharma.  Mr. Carlos Tejada was the deputy Asia editor for the New York Times.  He worked for the Wall Street Journal as China news editor prior to that.  In other words he was firmly entrenched as a mainstream media voice.  Unfortunately that also means he was beholden to Pfizer, Moderna, masks, etc.  It looks like that loyalty cost him his life.  As an international reporter who frequently traveled, Mr. Tejada had to choose between quitting his job or receiving experimental mRNA or viral vector DNA injections.  He chose the latter.  Mr. Tejada posted an Instagram photo on July 5 holding a vaccine card while someone injected him.  He captioned the photo with a bunch of mainstream media regurgitated talking points.  [Video clip]

Dr. Robert Malone:  We've been watching Fauci lie for decades.  Dr. Robert Malone, who as a leading vaccine expert has known Dr. Anthony Fauci for decades, said he wasn't surprised by the White House coronavirus adviser's insistence that people continue to trust cloth masks, despite the growing acknowledgment that they don't stop the spread of the virus.  "It's Tony.  What can I say?  Tony has no integrity.  He lies all of the time," Malone said in an interview Monday night with Fox News' Laura Ingraham.

CDC study shows 'severe' obesity accounts for a bulk of COVID-19 teen hospitalizations.  A new study from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention seems to reaffirm the link between COVID-19 hospitalization and obesity.  This and similar studies prompted Fox News host and master polemicist Greg Gutfeld to weigh in, as it were.  "In the early months of this epidemic, a few loudmouths like me mentioned 'this would be a good time to lose weight because it's a risk factor that you can manipulate.'  And we were accused of fat-shaming.  Yeah, something that use to be known as good advice is now [considered] offensive by people in the media who would later call you a monster for not getting triple-vaxxed," he said on "Gutfeld" Tuesday [1/4/2022].  "Meanwhile they got COVID anyway," Gutfeld declared in the video clip embedded [in this article] for which you can draw your own conclusions.  [Video clip]

COVID and the Governors.  There is growing speculation that with two dozen Democratic members of the House having already announced their retirement, an undeniable opportunity exists for Republicans to seize control of both houses of Congress during the 2022 midterm elections.  It can be assumed that those Democratic incumbents, after having defended an illegitimate President and his morally bankrupt policies, fear they will bear the blame for their party's support of deplorable COVID lockdowns and their effort to destroy the American republic.  The painful truth is that the Democratic party controls almost every major social and cultural institution in the country: the mainstream and social media, every federal government agency of importance including intelligence, national security, health and the military apparatus; academic, religious and science foundations and many opinion outlets.  What they do not control is the majority of the American people.

Two brilliant doctors explain what's really going on with COVID.  I've just completed a marathon of listening to 6 hours of Joe Rogan interviewing two doctors, first Peter McCullough, then Robert Malone.  Both, uncensored on Gettr and Spotify, are worth your time.  Listening certainly furthered my education. [...] One of the biggest take-aways from the time I just spent listening to Dr. Malone is that I gained a deeper understanding of the duplicitous nature of the powers that be in manipulating the public about COVID. For example, we know the Biden administration's been pulling from use all supplies of monoclonal antibodies.  Supposedly, this is based on the assumption that all the COVID in America comes from Omicron now, and the antibodies don't work for Omicron.  It's a lame excuse at best.  Dr. Malone insists that the primary cause of hospitalization is still Delta, which is much more virulent and causes far more severe illness if untreated.  The antibodies are the best defense against it.  Pulling them from use is going to mean an escalation in hospitalization and death.

Viagra Lifts Woman Out of COVID Coma.  Viagra is a miracle drug that keeps on growing.  A 37-year-old nurse in England is back on her feet, thanks to the little blue pill.  The fully vaxxed Monica Almeida tested positive for the Chinese Wu-flu on October 31.  Soon she had the Chinese sneeze and pneumonia as well.  She also has asthma and is a bit on the portly side.  By November 16 she was in a medically induced coma.  That's when she caught an infection.  She also had to undergo a tracheotomy just over two weeks later.  She was in bad shape.  Her parents were contacted and told to fly in from Portugal to say goodbye.  Before being put into the coma, Almeida agreed to partake in experimental COVID treatments if necessary.  She was 72 hours away from having her ventilator turned off when her doctors decided to inject her with a large dose of Viagra.  Viagra dilates blood vessels in the lungs as well as other parts of the body.  It also opens airways.  Soon Almeida was breathing better.  Almeida claims the Viagra saved her life.  Not even two days later, she was showing signs of recovery.

A Major Media Reversal on Covid Alarmism.  If you're worried about Covid-19, then there's an excellent chance that at least once over the past two years, either you've read an article or someone has sent you an article about the pandemic from The Atlantic magazine.  Day after day, week after week, that publication offers at least one article or personal essay that warns you that, as bad as things may seem, they're actually much worse and will probably get even worse tomorrow, all with a headline perfectly calibrated to go viral, no pun intended, among the most Covid-concerned: [...] And now, seemingly out of nowhere, The Atlantic runs an essay by Benjamin Mazer, a physician specializing in laboratory medicine, headlined with the imperative, "Stop Wasting COVID Tests, People": [...] After nearly two years of articles warning people about the severity of Covid-19, how wildly contagious the variants are, describing the ailments of those with "long Covid," and relentlessly spotlighting every other potentially dire outcome, The Atlantic runs an article about how people are being paranoid and testing themselves for Covid too much.

The Covid Truths Come Out.  As the Omicron wave of Covid-19 washed over the American Northeast and started to spread nationwide, familiar public-health officials and commentators suddenly started to say things that were previously unsayable.  And CDC guidance started changing rapidly.  Things such as "your masks are useless."  And "the hospitalization figures for Covid in children are overcounted."  And "we need to stop focusing on cases and start focusing on hospitalizations."  And even that public-health regulations had to retreat to the point at which they would be tolerated by the public.

Praise The Lord And Pass The Ivermectin.  With over 1,200 daily COVID deaths for many weeks the US is on track to reach a total of one million COVID related deaths by the end of March.  A shameful record for 2022.  To think that every week over 8,000 Americans are dying, mostly in hospital ICUs is unbelievable.  But that is no excuse that there is no serious attention by the mainstream media.  Take a moment to reflect that this is more deaths than those in the 9/11 attacks and Pearl Harbor, combined.  And it is happening every week.  Hospitals have become killing machines, places where the kiss of death is a protocol following government guidelines.  Despite wide COVID vaccine use deaths in hospitals because of late stage viral infection remain at a high level.  Difficulty in getting COVID testing quickly and often probably contributes to the high death rate.  Too many people do not get their COVID infection addressed early.  There remains too little use of monoclonal antibodies early for infected people.  So their infection progresses to serious lung and breathing problems.  That is the beginning of the end.

Race-Rationing in a Pandemic.  century ago, the Soviet dissident writer Yevgeny Zamyatin novelized a future dystopia in which equality was taken so seriously that peculiarly athletic people might have one of their limbs lopped off by the state, to even things up.  New York State is now trying something similar:  In the cause of racial equality, it advises doctors to deny white people life-saving medicine for Covid-19. To do so, it insultingly treats non-whiteness as a serious medical malady.  A memo from the state Health Department, approved by Governor Kathy Hochul, stated that, along with considerations of age, weight, and severity of symptoms, race should be a factor in the rationing of Pfizer's Paxlovid pill and monoclonal antibody treatments.

Race-Based COVID-19 Treatment Violates Federal Law — and the Biden DOJ is silent.  New York City has issued its latest guidance for the distribution of monoclonal antibodies (and other COVID-19 therapeutics) for the treatment of COVID-19.  And it looks to your color, not your condition.  For the uninitiated, monoclonal antibodies are recommended by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and have been authorized by the FDA, for the treatment of COVID-19.  According to the latest New York City guidelines, monoclonal antibodies are authorized as COVID-19 treatment "for people who have a medical condition or other factors that increase their risk for severe illness."  "Other factors" that increase the risk for serious illness.  What could those be?  New York City has the answer:  "Consider race and ethnicity when assessing individual risk, as longstanding systemic health and social inequities may contribute to an increased risk of getting sick and dying from COVID-19."

CDC: 61% of Teenagers Hospitalized for COVID-19 Had Obesity.  One of the only silver linings of the pandemic has been that young people are less affected by COVID-19 than the elderly.  In fact, the most vital indicator of negative COVID-19 outcomes is age:  Unlike the Spanish flu, which ravaged armies that were overwhelmingly comprised of otherwise healthy young people during World War I, COVID-19's death toll is dramatically skewed toward those who have already lived many years.  (For context, the average age of death from Spanish flu was 28.)  That said, about 600 Americans under the age of 18 have died of COVID-19 during the pandemic.  A new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) took a closer look at young people who were hospitalized for COVID-19 in July and August, while the delta variant wave took hold, and largely found that healthy young people continue to mostly evade the worst of COVID-19.  The study found that most young people who suffer severe COVID-19 outcomes had underlying health conditions.  The most common, especially for teenagers, was obesity.

'We can't vaccinate the planet every six months,' says Oxford vaccine scientist.  A leading expert who helped create the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine said Tuesday [1/4/2022] that giving everyone in the world booster shots multiple times a year is not feasible.  "We can't vaccinate the planet every four to six months.  It's not sustainable or affordable," Professor Andrew Pollard, the director of the Oxford Vaccine Group and head of the UK's Committee on Vaccination and Immunization, told The Daily Telegraph in an interview published Tuesday.

Biden's 'pandemic of the unvaccinated' narrative falls apart as omicron cases skyrocket.  For months, President Biden has characterized the continued spread of the coronavirus as a "pandemic of the unvaccinated" and repeatedly claimed that vaccinated people cannot spread the virus, contradicting what his own Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been saying since at least April.  "This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated," the president told Ohio's WHIO TV 7 on Dec. 14.  "The unvaccinated.  Not the vaccinated, the unvaccinated.  That's the problem.  Everybody talks about freedom and not to have a shot or have a test.  Well guess what?  How about patriotism?  How about making sure that you're vaccinated, so you do not spread the disease to anyone else."  But the CDC has been warning about breakthrough COVID-19 infections for the better part of 2021, issuing an update in April that said, "People can still get sick and possibly spread COVID-19 to others after being fully vaccinated."

The Mainstream Media Is Losing The Fight Of Its Life... All Thanks To Joe Rogan.  I listened to the Joe Rogan Experience podcast interview of mRNA inventor Dr. Robert Malone, M.D., hours after the doctor was banned from Twitter for having opinions on Covid that stood at odds with the mainstream narrative.  The opinions that Malone echoed during his Rogan appearance included, but were not limited to:
  •   Calling the government "out of control" and "lawless" in their Covid response
  •   Stating mandates of "experimental" vaccines are "explicitly illegal"
  •   Noting that India had success in treating Covid early with drugs like ivermectin
  •   Saying "half a million" excess deaths have occurred due to government actions
  •   Arguing those with natural immunity have higher risk of vaccine adverse events
  •   Alleging that people are living through a mass formation psychosis
I'm not going to rehash all of the doctor's points about Covid, but instead will say that I believe he made an extraordinary amount of thoughtful points that the mainstream media and "big tech" are too scared (and/or too stupid) to touch on themselves.

The truth is starting to leak out of Fauci like air from an old tire.  Over the last twenty months, Americans have learned that Anthony Fauci, the highest-paid federal employee, has a very utilitarian approach to the truth.  In other words, he'll say whatever is useful to him at the moment and call it the truth.  However, eventually, when sufficiently cornered or unguarded, the truth will out.  In this case, Fauci blundered into admitting that he knew that he, on behalf of the United States, was collaborating with the Chinese communists.  I won't bore you with the litany of Fauci's constantly changing narratives about masks, vaccines, lockdowns, mandates, and, of course, funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan laboratory, which any fool knows is affiliated with the Chinese military.  Just do a search in your favorite search engine (which I hope is not Google) and you'll come up with dozens of articles documenting Fauci's lies.  Most of these sites gave up the effort around August because it was just too much work.  Moreover, any fool also knows that China is not a friendly nation.  It is, unfortunately, our largest trade partner, but Xi Jinping has made no bones about the fact that he seeks to displace America as the world's superpower.

More preliminary evidence that the vaccines have led to a spike in deaths.  A recent shocking report in American Thinker suggests that life insurance payouts are considerably worse then executives expected.  Obvious question:  is it an aberration or is it for real?  Alas, a cursory examination suggests it may be for real. [...] Life insurance companies have strong incentives to be accurate in their reporting to financial markets.  It is possible that these deaths represent neglected care, the postponed treatments of heart disease, cancer, and the like.  But that seems unlikely given the spike in the third quarter deaths.  And presumably COVID already has taken the most vulnerable in 2020 in the absence of a vaccine.  These massive claims seemed to be a phenomenon of the third quarter — about six months after the vaccine regimen became widely available.  This just offers further evidence that something is very wrong with these vaccines.

Dr. Peter McCullough Drops A Bombshell, Up To 187k People May Have Been Killed By Vaccines According To New Census Data.  Dr. McCullough describes the attacks being waged on members of the medical community who publish examinations of the empirical evidence demonstrating Covid-19 vaccine damage.  This includes an analysis of VAERS data showing disproportionate instances of myocarditis among men of all ages, plus a study using census data revealing up to 180,000 American deaths linked to the vaccine, making it a bigger killer than the illness.  [Video clip]

One Of America's Oldest Insurance Companies Reports Deaths Amoung Working Age People UP 40%!  There's a bombshell report out by one of America's oldest insurance companies, Indianapolis-based insurance company, OneAmerica.  What the CEO of this companies reports is that deaths are up 40% among working-age adults, 18-64 years of age.  "We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business — not just at OneAmerica," said Scott Davison, head of the $100 billion insurance company that's been in operation since 1877 and has approximately 2,400 employees.  The increase represents "huge, huge numbers," among "primarily working-age people" who have employer-sponsored group life plans through OneAmerica, according to The Center Square.  [Video clip]

The Editor says...
If the vaccine is causing all these excess deaths, the 40 percent figure will look tiny by the end of this year, and life insurance will be hard to find at any price.  But (at this point) anyone who says so out loud is called a conspiracy nut.

Unprecedented: Deaths in Indiana for ages 18-64 are up 40%.  [Scroll down]  Key points:
  [#1]   Deaths among 18-64 year-olds (who don't normally die) are up by 40% in 2021 vs. pre-pandemic levels
  [#2]   This is huge. [...] They've never seen anything like this before in their history.  Normally death rates don't change at all.  They are very stable.  It would take something REALLY BIG to have an effect this big.  The effect size is 12-sigma.  That is an event that would happen by pure chance every 2.8e32 years.  That's very rare. It's basically never.  [...] In other words, the event that happened is not a statistical "fluke."  Something caused a very big change.
  [#3]   Others in the industry are seeing it too.
  [#4]   It isn't COVID.  COVID deaths are down this year.
  [#5]   Whatever it is that is causing this, it is bigger and more deadlier than COVID and it's affecting nearly everyone.
  [#6]   The CDC is totally on top of this... ok, just kidding... the CDC is clueless as usual.

Bhakdi/Burkhardt pathology results show 93% of people who died after being vaccinated were killed by the vaccine.  The vaccines are bad news.  Fifteen bodies were examined (all died from 7 days to 6 months after vaccination; ages 28 to 95).  The coroner or the public prosecutor didn't associate the vaccine as the cause of death in any of the cases.  However, further examination revealed that the vaccine was implicated in the deaths of 14 of the 15 cases.  The most attacked organ was the heart (in all of the people who died), but other organs were attacked as well.  The implications are potentially enormous resulting in millions of deaths.  The vaccines should be immediately halted.  No need to worry.  It is doubtful that anything will happen because the work wasn't published in a peer-reviewed journal so will be ignored by the scientific community.  That's just the way it works.

Has COVID Run Its Course?  Two years after COVID first landed on our shores, the rate of new cases has absolutely exploded.  That's making headlines.  Here's what isn't making headlines:  Daily COVID deaths are down.  As before, news that COVID is spreading has generated a raft of stories about how the latest wave is stretching the nation's health care system to the breaking point. [...] But wait a second.  Tracking data from the Centers for Disease Control show that this time, things are very different from previous waves.  While the number of people testing positive for COVID has indeed soared — the CDC reported almost half a million new cases on Dec. 29 alone, nearly twice the daily peak from last year — the number of people being admitted to intensive care units and the number reported to have died from COVID hasn't followed suit.

MTA Bus Drivers are Being told to Come in Work Even if [they] Test Positive For COVID.  The MTA is the latest business the government owns that is feeling the reprecussions of all of the COVID lockdowns.  Now the MTA is telling their drivers to come into work even if you test positive for COVID because there are too many drivers calling out.  Clearly it's not that big of a deal if the MTA is telling you even if you test positive to still come in and spread COVID to all of your passengers.  [Video clip]

Dr. McCollough:  Outpatient Treatments for COVID-19 Have Been Suppressed.  Dr. Peter McCullough told The Epoch Times that the public should question why the governments and public health officials around the world have put little to no emphasis on outpatient treatments in their efforts to fight the COVID-19 virus, instead promoting a massive effort on vaccines.  "Lots of messaging on the vaccine, but zero mentioning on treatment, none.  And it's been from the very beginning.  There is a theme here, I hope everyone's starting to get the theme.  There is zero effort, interest, promotion, or care about early treatment, people who are sick with COVID-19," said McCullough.  "But there is a complete and total focus on people who don't have COVID-19 and giving them a vaccine."  McCullough is an internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, and lead author of the first paper on early COVID-19 outpatient treatment involving a multi-drug regimen.  In a recent interview with EpochTV's "American Thought Leaders" program, he discussed a wide range of evidence on COVID-19 preventative treatments that are being used around the world.

Soviet Canada:  Doctor Locked in Psych Ward Who Exposed Stillbirth Explosion in 'Vaccinated' Moms.  The Soviet Union often claimed that dissidents had "mental issues" and would lock them up in asylums, keep them drugged, and eventually they would die.  In November, Dr. Melvin Bruchet and his friend, Dr. Daniel Nagase, filed criminal charges against elected and appointed Candian government officials in British Columbia over a possible conflict of interest regarding provincial lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and vaccine passports.  The doctors exposed a severe spike in stillbirths at a Vancouver hospital.  The women were injected with the experimental Covid "vaccine" in all cases.  In December 2021, the Canadian government targeted Dr. Melvin Bruchet and unlawfully placed him in detention against his will.

Denmark health chief says Omicron is bringing about the end of the pandemic and 'we will have our normal lives back in two months'.  A Danish health chief has said the Covid-19 Omicron variant is bringing about the end of the pandemic, saying 'we will have our normal lives back in two months'.  Speaking to Danish TV 2, Tyra Grove Krause — the chief epidemiologist at Denmark's State Serum Institute — said a new study from the organisation found that the risk of hospitalisation from Omicron is half that seen with the Delta variant.  This, she said, has given Danish authorities hope that the Covid-19 pandemic in Denmark could be over in two months.

Anthony Fauci:  Failed General.  By some historical accounts Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig bears the distinction of WWI's worst general. [...] In a similar respect, despite his academic and professional accomplishments, Dr. Anthony Fauci has no background or experience in clinical medicine and is ill equipped to lead the SARS-CoV-2 response.  His purview is that of a research scientist and entrenched bureaucrat, who is far removed from patient contact.  His career is enmeshed with the pharmaceutical industry, whose financial ties with federal medical regulatory institutions are well described.  Throughout his career he has denied patients easily accessible, inexpensive, and effective treatments in lieu of patented medications with high risk profiles and of dubious efficacy.  In 1987 despite overwhelming clinical evidence, he told AIDS activists that the prophylactic use of the common antibiotic Bactrim to treat pneumocystis carnii pneumonia was ineffective and possibly dangerous.  Through private donations the company Lymphomed circumvented the NIAID and conducted successful clinical trials.  The delay cost the lives of nearly 17,000 immunocompromised patients.

Manhattan DA dropped COVID nursing home probe of Cuomo: lawyer.  The Manhattan district attorney's office has dropped a probe into Andrew Cuomo over allegations he mishandled nursing homes during the initial coronavirus outbreak, the ex-governor's lawyer said Monday [1/3/2022].  Cuomo's spokesman forwarded a statement from Elkan Abramowitz, an attorney who had repped the governor's office under Cuomo.  "I was contacted today by the head of the Elder Care Unit from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office who informed me they have closed its investigation involving the Executive Chamber and nursing homes," Abramowitz said.

Judge issues stay against vaccine mandate for Navy SEALs seeking religious exemption.  A federal judge granted a temporary injunction Monday against a federal vaccine mandate for Navy SEALs, who sued President Biden because they were seeking a religious exemption.  Judge Reed O'Connor, the U.S. District Court Judge for the Northern District of Texas, issued the stay in response to a lawsuit filed by First Liberty Institute in November on behalf of 35 active-duty SEALs and three reservists seeking a religious exemption, as first reported by Fox News Digital.

U.S. Military Uses Religious Test Against Service Members To Enforce Vaccine Mandate.  Members of our military pledge their loyalty to the Constitution.  Its First Amendment guarantees freedom of religion.  So, it would be perverse to force men and women in uniform to abandon their deeply held religious beliefs to serve their country.  Yet that's what's happening regarding the COVID-19 vaccine mandates — for which the normal rules seem not to apply.  The Air Force recently discharged its first active-duty members for declining to take a COVID-19 vaccine.  Those 27 are likely the first batch of many to be discharged on these grounds.  Thousands of our servicemen and women have requested religious exemptions.  So far, not one has been granted.

What if the largest experiment on human beings in history is a failure?  [Scroll down]  It is starting to look to me like the largest experiment on human beings in recorded history has failed. [...] If this holds true, then the genetic vaccines so aggressively promoted have failed, and the clear federal campaign to prevent early treatment with lifesaving drugs has contributed to a massive, avoidable loss of life.  AT WORST, this report implies that the federal workplace vaccine mandates have driven what appear to be a true crime against humanity.  Massive loss of life in (presumably) workers that have been forced to accept a toxic vaccine at higher frequency relative to the general population of Indiana.  FURTHERMORE, we have also been living through the most massive, globally coordinated propaganda and censorship campaign in the history of the human race.  All major mass media and the social media technology companies have coordinated to stifle and suppress any discussion of the risks of the genetic vaccines AND/OR alternative early treatments. [...] This article reads like a dry description of an avoidable mass casualty event caused by a mandated experimental medical procedure.

Indiana life insurance CEO says deaths are up 40% among people ages 18-64.  The head of Indianapolis-based insurance company OneAmerica said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.  "We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business — not just at OneAmerica," the company's CEO Scott Davison said during an online news conference this week.  "The data is consistent across every player in that business."  OneAmerica is a $100 billion insurance company that has had its headquarters in Indianapolis since 1877.  The company has approximately 2,400 employees and sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in the state.

Insurance CEO says deaths up 40% among working age people, and it's not just COVID.  The head of OneAmerica insurance said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.  "We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business — not just at OneAmerica," the company's CEO Scott Davison said during an online news conference this week.  "The data is consistent across every player in that business."  OneAmerica is a $100 billion insurance company that has had its headquarters in Indianapolis since 1877. The company has approximately 2,400 employees and sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in the state.

People are dying, but not the ones you think for the reasons you think.  While the mainstream media, at least in 2020, tracked deaths with the fanaticism of an insurance company, they've always lacked accuracy.  That's why it matters when a major American insurance company, which is in the business of accurate data about deaths, announces that Americans in the 18 [to] 64 age bracket are dying in unprecedented numbers.  The same data suggest that these aren't COVID deaths, which makes them much more sinister.  OneAmerica is a major insurance company located in Indianapolis with annual revenue of around $2 billion and total assets of around $74 billion.  This is not a fly-by-night internet "insurance" company.  OneAmerica is the real deal, selling both individual and group life insurance, and it has data and actuarial tables that go back 145 years.

Nashville Doctor Dies Days After Getting His First Pfizer Shot, Media Tries To Play It Off As Dying Of COVID.  Dimitri Ndina, a local doctor with no prior conditions, has died as a result of blood clots shortly after receiving his first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.  However, local media is now reporting that he died as a result of the virus.  Ndina, who was a pharmaceutical doctor at Tennessee Oncology, received his first dose in early December and was hospitalized shortly after at St.  Thomas Midtown Hospital.  Alexis Ndina, his 19-year-old daughter, said:  "[He became sick] sometime after his first vaccine and he somewhat brushed it off, usually when he gets sick he gets better the next day and then he was hospitalized on December 7th."  The 57-year-old was admitted to the hospital's ICU unit where he later died on December 20th.  Ndina had blood clots spreading throughout his body as Alexis explained: [...]  [Video clip]

Pandemic Response Will Be Used As Model for "Climate Crisis" Response.  Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, experts have assured worried populations that their policies would contain the virus, prevent infections, and save lives.  After two weeks of shutting down the country and sealing ourselves off, we would "flatten the curve" and then proceed with our lives as normal.  As we round out the second year of the "two weeks," I also recall that Biden's COVID advisor Dr. Anthony Facui assured us that once we hit 70% vaccination rates, we would no longer see surges in coronavirus cases. [...] One of the advantages about living through this pandemic is that we have the ability to see scientific "experts" fail in their projections in real time.  We have also observed politically connected bureaucrats stifle robust and essential scientific debate, as they colluded with the media to silence well qualified opposition to the latest pet theories and policies.  For example, Dr. Francis Collins, then director of the National Institutes of Health, sent an email to Facui concerned about the Great Barrington Declaration, a statement developed by Harvard's Martin Kulldorff, Oxford's Sunetra Gupta and Stanford's Jay Bhattacharya against blanket pandemic lockdowns.  The two organized a media smear campaign to paint these scientists as "fringe".

Twitter Bans Marjorie Taylor Greene's Personal Account over Covid Remarks.  Twitter permanently closed Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's (R., Ga.) personal account on Sunday over repeated violations of the company's Covid misinformation policy, a company spokesperson told CNN.  The congresswoman's official account, @RepMTG, remains functional.  It wasn't immediately clear what comments on the personal account prompted the suspension.  "We permanently suspended [Greene's personal account] for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy," the spokesperson said.  "We've been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy."

Fear porn, testing hysteria and tyranny.  According to the mainstream media, print and digital, COVID is surging, omicron is deadly and everyone with a scratchy throat runs to a testing center to see if they are "infected."  It's madness on a grand scale.  Most of them are not infected but these thousands of hypochondriacs are waiting hours in line for a test that, even if negative, may be positive the next day.  The clamor for more tests is ridiculous.  Everyone has known since July that the PCR tests were faulty to the point of being entirely useless — which the CDC finallynow admits.  The tests are a form of trickery, another tool in the government's fear campaign.  Viewers who rely on the mainstream media for news have been illegitimately frightened into believing the sniffles mean omicron and that omicron is serious.  It's not.  It's a cold.  How can so many Americans born into this country that was "conceived in liberty" be so submissive to the state?  Perhaps because for thirty years they've been lulled into obedience and have forgotten how to think for themselves.

COVID 19 and the Deification of Government.  The rocky road this nation has traveled over the past 22 months has given rise to a severe loss of credibility for the government and the scientific/medical community.  But more importantly, these months of COVID hysteria have brought out into the open a fundamental question about the ethos of the American people, their leaders and the future of the nation.  An increasingly significant percentage of the citizenry is abandoning a belief in God and the Judeo-Christian teachings that undergird the foundation of the country, with many willfully substituting an unconditional faith in government.  Accordingly, the United States is evolving into a society wherein a significant majority can be willingly manipulated and extraordinarily susceptible to collective hysteria due their near-religious belief in the infallibility of a man-made institution.  Alas, the institution of government, as the pandemic revealed, is dominated by unscrupulous and despotic politicians, their sycophants in the corporate media and politicized bureaucrats.  Elitists who have unabashedly sowed unfounded fear, anxiety and falsehoods among the populace in order to successfully abet the fraudulent skewing of the 2020 election and for personal economic gain.  These same wannabe autocrats have also revealed themselves to be incapable of changing course or admitting to and apologizing for their innumerable and ongoing lies and mistakes.

Sunday Talks, Is It Omicron Creating Societal Disruption via Staffing Shortages, or Are Companies Missing the Unvaccinated?  An interesting question surfaces as the vaccine mandate is enforced.  Is it the Omicron variant creating the labor shortages leading to "societal disruption," or is it the absence of the unvaccinated workers who have been removed from many companies?  In this segment, Dana Bash asks the chief White House political scientist if the nation should prepare for major societal disruption under the guise of Omicron.  As we have previously noted, the absence of a small number of highly efficient and productive employees, the vital few, can have a major impact on business operations (Pareto's principle).  Is that what we are really seeing, and they don't want to admit it?  [Video clip]

Six Basic Concepts Liberals Don't Get.  [#1] Science is never settled:  Scientists who claim that "the science is settled" are fools — period.  "Science" is our understanding of nature.  It's the height of arrogance to presume that our understanding of nature is either complete or accurate.  We've often thought it was, but history has proven us wrong time and again.  We believed that the universe revolved around the Earth until we discovered that it didn't.  Smart scientists know that there is always more to learn, and they avoid claims that their understanding is settled. [...] The most unsettling of the settled science practitioners has to be Dr. Anthony Fauci.  Masks don't work, but wear one anyway — in fact, wear two.  You need to wear those masks until you're vaccinated — and then you should probably keep wearing them — and get a few booster shots, too.  In fact, just keep wearing masks on airplanes forever because, you know... Trump.  What part of that science sounds settled?

The Zero Covid Problem.  One of the unresolved debates of the pandemic era is whether the zero-Covid public health strategy is the correct one.  This strategy can be loosely defined as driving Covid-19 as close as possible to zero through strict control measures so that community transmissions no longer appear and, should that happen, be quickly re-suppressed.  Initially, even Europe and the U.S. tried this (remember two weeks to flatten the curve?) but quickly gave up with the emergence of new variants, although through 2021 a number of small, or easily isolated, countries persisted in the attempt.  As 2022 dawned, however, even these were giving up.

Panicky Would-Be COVID Victims Line Up for Hours to Find Out if They're Sick.  Pity the poor patient who is suffering with serious symptoms and needs to obtain a COVID test — in some cases, where early intervention would be indicated as a matter of life or death; in others, as a precondition of an urgently-needed procedure.  Weep for the worker whose employer requires he be tested regularly, or else risk losing paid hours or outright termination.  Cry for the caregiver who already takes time out of her day to tend to someone too weak to care for himself, and who must now spend additional hours waiting in interminable lines for that crucial nasal swabbing.  Now, imagine, if you will, a devastating pandemic of a variant so virulent that victims don't even know they have it unless they obtain a positive test.  This twilit nightmare is reality for the COVID-panicked, a new kind of Karen who has turned her controlling tendencies inward and will do everything in her power to make sure she herself never, ever spreads the dread disease.  And therefore, it is crucially important that she gets tested ... no matter what.

Did banned mRNA vax inventor Robert W. Malone M.D. just break the Google algorithm?  Did the Twitter punks who banned mRNA vaccine inventor and bona fide vaccine expert Robert W. Malone, M.D. just set off the Mother of all Backfires?  Kind of looks like it, now that they've drawn so much public interest to the man that they've apparently broken the Google algorithm for censoring stories about him. [...] Although Malone is a giant in his field and hard to discredit the way they can do with assorted pipsqueaks out there, somehow they think they need to silence the man.  On Google, they've tried to paint him as a nut, a conspiracy theorist, a vaccine skeptic, a Nazi, based on the search results they tried to throw up.  But the truth got out anyway, and their manipulated algorithms have been exposed, discrediting them, and in any case, not working.

German Paper Apologizes for Scaring Kids With Panic-Driven Coverage of Covid.  In a shocking example of media honesty, the editor-in-chief of Germany's top newspaper, Bild, has apologized for the news outlet's panic-driven coverage of the China flu.  He specifically singled out children who were told "that they were going to murder their grandma."  Editor-in-chief Julian Reichelt videotaped his apology and told the children of Germany he was sorry for Bild's coverage, which was "like poison" and "made you feel like you were a mortal danger to society." [...] You won't see this in most news reports, but the Delta variant of COVID is less dangerous than the variant that China released in 2019.  It has caused far fewer deaths and hospitalizations.

Was COVID authoritarianism a practice run for something far worse?  We've learned over the last 20 months that, if a government can cause people to panic, people will readily forgo all their freedoms in return for a promise that the government will keep them safe.  One man has decided that the COVID panic is a successful trial run for future tyranny based upon the allegedly existential threat of climate change.  John Hinderaker, at Power Line, came across an article from Cambridge University Press entitled "Political Legitimacy, Authoritarianism, and Climate Change." The author, one Ross Mittiga III, is a Ph.D. in Poly Sci who ran unsuccessfully as the 2017 Democrat party candidate for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates.  According to a quotation on BallotPedia, his campaign focused on climate change:  ["]As someone who has dedicated his career to studying the politics and ethics of climate change, no issue is more important to me — or central to this campaign — than the need for robust environmental protection and climate action.["]  Mittiga is a true believer and he believes in the "whatever it takes" approach to stopping the climate from doing what it does naturally.

Report: Over 95% of Omicron Cases are in Vaccinated People.  Over 95 percent of reported cases of the Omicron COVID-19 variant in Germany occurred in fully vaccinated individuals, according to a new report from the federal government.  The paper — published December 30th by the German agency the 'Robert Koch Institute' — included information on the vaccination status of 4,206 individuals who contracted the latest variant of the virus.  Four thousand and twenty people who reported contracting Omicron in the study — which equates to 95.6 percent of total cases — had received at least two doses of COVID-19 vaccines.  Twenty-eight percent of the Omicron-positive group had also received a third dose or "booster" shot.  Just 186 people contracting Omicron were unvaccinated in the entire sample, showing that vaccinated individuals were over 21 times as likely to contract the COVID-19 variant.

Dr. Robert Malone to Rogan:  US in 'Mass Formation Psychosis' Over COVID-19.  Key mRNA contributor Dr. Robert Malone, a prominent skeptic of mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations, gave an interview to popular podcaster Joe Rogan — days after Malone was suspended from Twitter — during which he suggested the United States is in the midst of a "mass formation psychosis."  "Our government is out of control on this," Malone said about vaccine mandates in the interview, which was published over the weekend.  "And they are lawless.  They completely disregard bioethics.  They completely disregard the federal common-rule.  They have broken all the rules that I know of, that I've been trained [in] for years and years and years."  Malone, an expert in mRNA vaccine technologies who received training at UC Davis, UC San Diego, and the Salk Institute, was banned by Twitter last week.  Malone told The Epoch Times last week that Twitter offered no explanation for why his account, which had amassed 500,000 followers, was suspended.

Dr. Robert Malone Drops Bombshells During Much-Anticipated Interview With Joe Rogan.  Joe Rogan's much-anticipated podcast interview with Dr. Robert Malone, the Inventor of mRNA vaccine technology, dropped on Friday — and sure enough, it did not disappoint.  Dr. Malone has been speaking out against the public health bureaucracy's Covid-19 response and the experimental vaccines for months, proving himself to be one of the most reliable sources of factual information throughout the pandemic.  During his interview on JRE, Dr. Malone dropped bombshell after bombshell on the corrupt establishment — From public officials covering up known early treatments — to serious conflicts of interest between the medical elites and those who are supposedly holding them accountable — all the way up to federal cash bribes to healthcare facilities in exchange for Covid death receipts — he did not hold back.

American colleges shift to remote learning despite taking millions in coronavirus relief funding.  Colleges and universities across America received millions of dollars in government funding during the coronavirus pandemic, some of which was intended to help them safely reopen their campuses to in-person learning.  However, many schools that received the government funding are now beginning their spring 2022 semester with remote learning.  According to the Department of Education, $74.9 billion from the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund was allocated to colleges and universities across the country.  When the CARES Act was signed into law in March 2020, it required that institutions using money from the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund use 50% of the funding received for direct financial-assistance grants to students.  The remaining amount of money could be used for costs relating to the coronavirus pandemic.

Am I sick?  COVID testing lines stretch for hours.  Fifteen minutes before the WellNow Urgent Care opened on Thursday [12/30/2021], a line stretched past the office, the next two stores and wrapped around the corner to the far side of the building.  Every person there was waiting for a COVID-19 test, five days after Christmas celebrations that may have spread the virus rapidly.  COVID-19 cases are surging again, likely driven by the more contagious omicron variant, and people are now coming out in droves seeking tests.

The Editor says...
As many others have pointed out, the eagerness to get Covid testing — even if it means standing in line in cold weather with a bunch of strangers who may be sick — is proof that mail-in voting isn't necessary because of Covid.

Aussie federal government quietly begins compensating people for adverse reactions to COVID vaccines.  The rollout of this new policy by Australia's federal government has been fairly quiet.  It was first announced November 17, 2021. [...] ["]The scheme will cover the costs of injuries $1,000 and above due to administration of a TGA approved COVID-19 vaccine or due to an adverse event that is considered to be caused by a COVID-19 vaccination.  The list of adverse effects for claims purposes under the scheme include the following clinical conditions that are diagnosed by a treating doctors and are included in the approved product information for the specific vaccine:

Rep. Biggs Demands Answers on Why It Could Take Up to 75 Years for COVID Vaccine Information.  Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs sent a letter Thursday [12/30/2021] to the Department of Health and Human Service and the FDA demanding answers on why they needed 75 years to answer FOIA requests for Pfizer vaccine data.  "The lack of transparency from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) surrounding the information that was relied on to license the COVID-19 vaccines is astonishing," the letter reads.  "I urge you to commit significant departmental resources to ensure that the American public has full access to all information that FDA regulators relied upon in approving the COVID-19 vaccines."  In the letter, Biggs argued that the American public deserves full access to the information FDA regulators relied on to approve the vaccines, the Daily Caller reports.  Biggs mentioned the nonprofit Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency, which submitted a FOIA request to the FDA requesting all data contained within Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine file.

How Dr. Fauci Deliberately Distorts the Truth:  "The data needs to be further analyzed".  The public has been a constant target of Dr. Fauci's distortion of the truth.  Whether misleading U.S. Congress with claims that the coronavirus is ten times more deadly than influenza, Public Health Lessons Learned From Biases in Coronavirus Mortality Overestimation - PubMed (nih.gov), denying that his organization, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, was involved in funding gain of function research, or promoting the ridiculously misleading 95% efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines, Outcome Reporting Bias in COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Clinical Trials - PubMed (nih.gov), Dr. Fauci consistently manages to pull the wool over the public's eyes.  Fauci's distortions often do not appear to be unintentional.  Evidence in this editorial will demonstrate one of Dr. Fauci's methods which he uses to deliberately distort the truth when reporting clinical research findings.

New York to discriminate on basis of race in covid therapeutics access.  The state of New York has decided to distribute anti-covid treatments in part on the basis of race and ethnicity.  It will discriminate against Whites in providing access to therapeutics in short supply, which monoclonal antibody treatment and antiviral pills currently are.  The policy sets forth a list of eligibility criteria for oral antiviral treatment, all of which must be satisfied to receive treatment.  They include factors of age, weight, covid test result, and mildness of symptoms.  So far, so good.  But the last criterion, medical condition and other risk factors, includes this:  ["]Non-white race or Hispanic/Latino ethnicity should be considered a risk factor, as longstanding systemic health and social inequities have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19.["]  Thus, the last criterion can be satisfied by virtue of being Black or Hispanic/Latino, but not by being White.

French Tennis Star Tests Positive For COVID-19 For The 250th Time.  French tennis player Benoit Paire has tested positive for COVID-19 just weeks before the Australian Open gets underway on January 17, 2022.  This is the 250th time Paire has gotten a positive test result from a COVID-19 test.  The 32-year-old is now angry and can't "deal with the COVID [...] anymore!"  He has admitted that the regular quarantining required of him has taken a toll on his mental health.

More Nurses Blow the Whistle:  "Overwhelming" Number of Heart Attacks Etc.  In The Fully Vaccinated.  There is a wave of vaccine-induced illnesses sweeping Southern California hospitals, and a few brave nurses have come forward to talk about it.  In Ventura County, located to the north of Los Angeles, cases of "unexplained" heart problems, strokes and blood clotting are skyrocketing at area hospitals.  And many local doctors are refusing to link these events to Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) injections.  A critical care nurse at a Ventura County ICU came forward to tell the Conejo Guardian that he is "tired of all the B.S. that's going on" as the medical establishment refuses to acknowledge the elephant in the room.  "It's crazy how nobody questions anything anymore," this person, named Sam, is quoted as saying.  Sam says that there has been a noticeable surge in young people experiencing these types of severe health problems after they get needled with the injections from Operation Warp Speed.

COVID is proving to be a very useful disease for the bad guys.  COVID-19 is a dream come true for every Marxist and would-be globalist aristocrat throughout the world.  The governments of all freedom-loving democracies have been transformed, virtually overnight, into oppressive authoritarian regimes, seemingly while we slept.  Evidence, however, that the COVID pandemic may not have been just an unfortunate set of circumstances is starting to accumulate.  Six months ago, it was revealed that a scientist with connections to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the People's Liberation Army, may have been trying to develop a vaccine long before the COVID virus "escaped" the confines of the institute. [...] Perhaps the CCP had not yet finished working on the vaccine when the pathogen broke containment.  To deflect suspicion away from themselves as the virus spread, the CCP had to fabricate a story that became the "wet market" saga, and anyone who said otherwise was quickly made to disappear.  That they were abetted in this deception by the WHO, the U.S. media, and a good-size chunk of the U.S. government is appalling.

Kaiser Permanente Research Finds Herpes Zoster Vaccine Lowers Risk of COVID-19 Infection & Hospitalization.  A recent study led by a team of researchers from Kaiser Permanente Southern California, Department of Research & Evaluation as well as the University of Alabama at Birmingham recently had their findings published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases.  Led by corresponding authors Katia Bruxvoort, PhD, MPH, and Bradley Ackerson, MD, the study team reports that recombinant adjuvanted zoster vaccine (RZV) was associated with a 16% lower risk of COVID-19 diagnosis as well as a 32% lower risk of hospitalization.  The authors recommend more investigation into vaccine-induced, non-specific immunity as a mitigation measure to reduce the damage in future pandemics.

Dr. Robert Malone Dropped Multiple Nukes On The Rogan Show, Accuses US Gov Of Intentionally Killing Patients.  Dr. Robert Malone:  There are good modeling studies, that show half of Million Excess Deaths have happened in the US, through the intentional blockade of early COVID treatment by the US Government.  Joe Rogan and Dr. Robert Malone discuss how people with natural COVID immunity are at a higher risk of adverse events from the vaccine.  Malone discusses an alleged whistler blower case where a teenage girl was severely injured by the vaccine, yet the incident was reported as a stomach ache.  Malone explains to Joe Rogan how Uttar Pradesh has crushed COVID with early treatment.  [Video clip]

Dr. Robert Malone Likens The Hysteria Over COVID To 1920s/30s Nazi Germany.  On Joe Rogan, Dr. Robert Malone suggests we are living through a mass formation psychosis.  He explains how and why this could happen, and its effects.  [Video clip]

'Mass Formation Psychosis' — It's Real, and It Was Purposely Caused by Biden and the Democrat Party.  As defined by Mayo Clinic, Illness Anxiety, in part, is needlessly worrying about becoming seriously ill. [...] Mass Formation Psychosis, or "mass hypnosis" or "the madness of crowds," as noted by TrialSiteNews, occurs when a large fraction of the population is completely unable to process new scientific data and facts, demonstrating that they have been misled or lied to.  In the case of COVID-19, the no-longer-pandemic, Anthony Fauci, Joe Biden, and the Democrat Party, and the Democrat state media — principally CNN and MSNBC — have consistently misled, changed their stories, or outright lied to America about the effectiveness and adverse impacts of mandatory mask use, lockdowns, and genetic vaccines that cause people's bodies to make large amounts of biologically-active coronavirus spike protein.  Tens of millions of Americans, hypnotized by the left, have been and remain incapable of recognizing the lies and manipulation.

Marjorie Taylor Greene permanently BANNED from Twitter.  Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was permanently suspended from Twitter on January 2 over alleged "misinformation" regarding COVID-19 vaccines.  Greene's personal account was suspended, while her professional account remains.  Twitter said that the suspension was enacted after "repeated violations" of their policies. [...] Greene responded to the ban on her Gettr account.  She wrote that "When Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter," which she did, telling supporters to go harass Trump supporters wherever they saw them and to "get in their face."  "Kamala and Ilhan can bail out rioters on Twitter," which they did, touting their contributions to bail funds that set out to free BLM and Antifa rioters from jail during the summer of 2020.  "And Chief spokesman for terrorist IRGC can tweet mourning Soleimani," which yes, also happened, "but I can get suspended for tweeting VAERS statistics, Twitter is an enemy to America and can't handle the truth."

The West Is Burning Down Before Our Eyes.  Perhaps nothing has done more to expose the authoritarian tendencies of many "democratic" leaders throughout the world than COVID-19.  Australia has perhaps been the most visible example, with numerous viral videos showing police viciously beating people for transgressions as small as not wearing a mask in public.  Then there are the COVID concentration camps where people are forced into multi-week confinement — even if they aren't positive for the virus.  The scenes out of Europe are hardly better.  Today, a video emerged that is so brutal that you'd think it was filmed in mid-'30s Germany.  It comes from Amsterdam, and involves police assaulting people and attacking them with dogs.  [Video clip]

79,000+ Australians Filing Compensation Claims for COVID-19 Vaccine Injuries.  Australia now is compensating COVID-19 vaccine patients for serious adverse events.  Australian news reports that the COVID-19 vaccines have led to at least 79,000 adverse reactions.  Those patients claiming under $20,000 must provide evidence from their physician.  For those with more serious conditions leading to claims over $20,000, they require a review by a panel of legal experts.  More nations are acknowledging that these vaccines can lead to injury and that those injured should be compensated.

In Antarctica, all their precautions were for nothing.  In July 2021, we published an essay from an "Anonymous Antarctican" describing the insane restrictions placed on people in the middle of nowhere, all in an effort to avoid COVID. Now, we're getting a reminder that, in the words of the old margarine commercial, "you can't fool Mother Nature."  It turns out that all those crazy precautions were for nothing.  A similarly situated station hosted a virgin population of people who had never had COVID, and two-thirds of them caught it, just as everyone will eventually.  The July American Thinker article, entitled "Anti-COVID measures in an Antarctic research station," described how the McMurdo Station, 800 miles north of the South Pole, had instituted incredibly repressive rules, all based on magical, not scientific, thinking: [...] Those attenuated and pointless travel restrictions, which meant a month of isolation and myriad COVID tests (which we now know can't distinguish COVID from the flu) were just the beginning.

Cops clash with protesters as police dogs attack & water cannons [are] deployed during anti-lockdown march in Amsterdam.  RIOT police armed with batons and shields clashed with thousands of anti-lockdown protesters in the Dutch capital today [1/2/2022].  Crowds gathered in Amsterdam's Museum Square to object against Covid-19 measures and vaccinations, despite a country-wide ban on group meet-ups.  City Mayor Femke Halsema issued emergency orders allowing cops to clear the area of rule-breakers during the latest wave of virus infections.  Water cannons were used to disperse swarms of people, while police dogs attacked those getting too close.  Officers also thrashed activists with batons as tempers flared.  Footage of the demo shows a cop whacking a woman over the head with his shield.  In another clip, things turn even more violent when a dog sinks its teeth into a protester's arm and drags him along the ground.  The angry mob marched along the main thoroughfare playing music and holding yellow umbrellas, a sign of opposition to the government-imposed restrictions.

The Mayor Of Toritama Brazil Is Beaten By Citizens Over Vaccine Mandates.  A video has gone viral on social media reportedly of the mayor of Toritama Brazil getting a beatdown from a mob of citizens over vaccine mandates that included children.  While no one can 100% confirm the story, it's the next step in 2022 the world enters the 3rd year of COVID tyranny.  [Video clip]

Radiologist Reports 360X Increase in Adenopathy (Swollen Glands) Post Covid-19 Vaccination.  A radiologist in the United States has anonymously reported a shocking observation this year.  The health expert has witnessed a 360 times increase in unexplained adenopathy post-Covid-19 vaccination.  Adenopathy is the medical term for swollen glands or swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy).  It is not a specific disease but is an important symptom for a variety of underlying conditions.  However, doctors may not be adequately trained to identify when jabs are responsible for causing the adenopathy.  The radiologist has said that he fears he will lose his job for reporting these vaccine-related observations, hence why he is speaking out anonymously.  He revealed that in his practice, he sees about one case of unexplained adenopathy every six months.  Although, once the covid-19 vaccines program was launched, the radiologist has seen around two to three cases of the symptom per day.  This is approximately a 360-fold increase of the rare condition.

Federal judge in Texas orders halt on Biden's vaccine and mask mandates.  Texas leaders on Friday [12/31/2021] scored a massive victory against the Biden administration's mask and vaccine mandates after a judge in the US District Court, Northern District of Texas, Lubbock Division, ruled for a halt in the conditions for funding for Head Start programs, which is ostensibly designed to provide education-related services to low-income children.  Buried in the Head Start program is a requirement for school staff to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and near-universal masking for both children and adults.  Per the ruling, Texas leaders including Gov. Greg Abbott argue that the Act "does not authorise such mandates, that irreparable injury would result from them that [the Department of Health and Human Services] failed to comply with the Administrative Procedure Act in adopting the conditions, and that the mandates violate various Constitutional doctrines."

How Likely Is Reinfection Following Covid Recovery?  Public-health messaging from the beginning of this pandemic has had very little to say about immunity acquired following infection.  But for most people, it is a real and pressing concern, and not only because of the vaccine mandates that have little or no regard for it.  People want to know whether once recovered they can be confident of not getting it again.  Must everyone live in fear forever or is there a basis for the recovered to live with confidence?  We have looked at the published evidence and can conclude based on the existing body of evidence, that reinfections are very rare, if at all and based on typically a few instances with questionable confirmation of an actual case of re-infection [Links to 25 references].  Colson et al. did publish a very interesting paper on evidence of a SARS-CoV-2 re-infection with a different genotype.  They sought to show that the same patient was infected in April, cleared the virus, seroconverted, but was "re-infected four months later with a new viral variant.

The Narrative™ of Covid is beginning to change and hoo boy does Ben Shapiro have the receipts.  Something weird has been happening as Americans have been distracted with Christmas parties and holiday cheer over the past few weeks: our ruling elite have begun to shift the official Covid Narrative™ in a variety of ways.  If you have been too busy living life to pay attention to said balloonheads, Ben Shapiro is here to sum it up:  [Tweets]  Like Shapiro said, many of us have been saying such things — based on the data — since May 2020, but we've been unable to express our thoughts publicly due to the zealous hordes of fAcT-cHecKeRs who censored anything that countered the chosen "experts" and the social media giants that destroyed people's ability to speak in the public square.

What I will remember about COVID is that people got mean.  [Scroll down]  But then there's COVID.  I see very little courage, compassion or heroism here.  OK, there's some by medical workers.  But I see none by politicians who want to game the pandemic for political advantage.  I see none by school teachers who want to "work" from home forever at the expense of taxpayers' money — and children's learning and mental health — even though there's virtually no increased contagion in the schools.  I see none from workers who saw the pandemic as a gravy train of free money as the politicians catered to them with payments for non-work.  What I do see is that people have become mean.  I use the term in the dictionary sense: small, stingy, unkind.  You see it on the highways.  Cloaked in semi-anonymity, drivers are rude and aggressive. [...] You also see it n the crime statistics.  Murder and other violent crimes are way up.  People have become mean criminals.  It's in politics.  Gotcha tribalism rules the day.  Wild name-calling abounds, with allegations of racism, Nazism, Communism and corruption, hurled by anyone against anyone who dares disagree with whatever.  Politics has gotten very mean.

Federal Judge Enjoins Another Biden Mandate in Texas.  The Supreme Court is preparing for arguments on January 7th in three cases looking at the legality of the vaccine mandate issued by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).  Courts have split on what White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain admits was a "workaround" of the limits on the President's authority.  Lower courts, however, are still adding potential mandate cases for expedited consideration.  On New Year's Eve, Judge James "Wesley" Hendrix of the U.S. District Court Northern District of Texas enjoined the mandate issued under the Head Start programs by the Biden administration.  The opinion follows the same general analysis as many of the prior cases in finding that this "workaround" will not work.  Like the OSHA rule, the new rules under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services were put through quickly and without a "notice and comment" period of review.  The rules also are unprecedented in their claim of authority to use this program to effectively implement a national vaccine mandate.

11 Times Joe Biden Promised to Get Coronavirus Under 'Control' in 2020.  President Joe Biden left for vacation earlier this week as the U.S. recorded the highest daily number of new coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic.  He concluded that there was "no federal solution" to the problem, and various spin doctors in the media urged Americans not to blame the president.  But last year, on the campaign trail and as President-elect, Biden promised specifically and repeatedly that he would make sure the virus was under control.  Here are 11 examples: [...]

The Cruise Ship Industry Learns a Valuable Lesson After Bowing to Joe Biden.  The cruise ship industry has been hit hard during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Yet, much of their pain and suffering has been self-inflicted, driven by their mindless following of pointless federal dictates.  That has most noticeably manifested itself in the implementation of so-called "vaccine passports."  Of course, vaccine passports do not actually accomplish anything.  New York City not only has a vaccine passport system, but they also have a vaccine mandate.  Still, they lead the nation in new coronavirus cases as of this writing.  But the fact that everyone spreads COVID — and that vaccine passports made no sense — is not new information.  And when Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida stood up to fight against such measures, the cruise ship companies not only spit in his face, they actively opposed him in court.  Instead of following the data, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, and others bent the knee to Joe Biden, even when they weren't legally required to.

Christian School Will Return To Pre-COVID Policies.  An Alexandria, Virginia K-8 private Christian school that is the city's first hybrid-model education program, with students meeting for classroom instruction and tutoring on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and completing schoolwork assignments at home on Mondays and Thursdays with their families, has taken a strong stand counter to the prevailing practices adopted at public schools across the nation, announcing they are returning to pre-COVID health policies.  Allison Morgan, the founder and head of The Classical Christian Conservatory of Alexandria (CCCA), posted a message to the school's parents, asserting that the school would not tolerate "disruptive, rolling classroom shutdowns," adding, "we cannot allow the success of our mission to be contingent upon the ebb and flow of this virus."

CUNY Removes 1,200 Unvaccinated Students From Classes.  Administrators at City University of New York (CUNY) removed over 1,200 students from their fall classes over vaccine noncompliance.  The CUNY system has made it mandatory for students to get the COVID-19 vaccine.  "We are grateful the overwhelming majority of CUNY students enrolled in hybrid and in-person classes complied with the mandate following the university's vaccination campaign that launched in March 2021 and continuous information about the vaccine mandate first shared starting in May 2021," said a CUNY spokesman this week.  Columbia University, NYU and St. John's have also all instituted vaccine mandates for students with the ostensible aim of protecting against coronavirus.
