Vaccines: The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly

An overview of traditional vaccines and mRNA injections 

By John Droz jr. Feb 06, 2025,  @ Critical Thinking About Select Societal Issues

Vaccines have become a controversial issue — partly due to RFKjr, but mostly because of the government’s vaccine policies. Here is a brief overview of this matter, from the perspective of a Scientist, not a medical professional.

The Good Old Days —

When vaccines first came out, they were only approved following rigid Scientific testing and protocols (RCTs). These studies typically took 10± years to carefully asses Safety (especially long-term) and Effectiveness. Here is the CDC's definition of vaccines they had for decades:

“A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.”

Not surprisingly, as time went on, pharmaceutical companies tried to reduce the high cost of developing these vaccines, as well as the time needed to get approval. Critics claimed that these amounted to shortcuts in the Scientific assessments, and lawsuits became more frequent.

NCVIA (National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act) was a major milestone in 1986. This largely indemnified Big Pharma: “With the stroke of a pen, Congress essentially abolished vaccine injury lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers…” COVID-19 precipitated another major vaccine milestone (see below)…

My outline has twelve points for you to consider about how we have gone off the rails from what was a successful traditional vaccine program. I could add more, but believe that a dozen should adequately get the message across…

Problem #1 —

Since traditional vaccines became widely used, some Big Pharma parties apparently concluded that it would be profitable to expand the bandwagon. In other words, if parents would automatically agree to get four vaccines for their child, why not make it five? Then six? How about seven?

Today (e.g., see here) there are nearly twenty different vaccines for children!

But, it’s worse! Look at the number of injections, the CDC is recommending: by the time a child is two (2) years old they will get some FORTY injections!

One does not need to be a Scientist to suspect that this situation is driven by Big Pharmaceutical profits, not the health benefits to children.

Problem #2 —

Although there was some Scientific testing regarding Safety & Effectiveness for most of these different vaccines individually, there does not seem to have been sufficient Scientific testing for these vaccines in combination.

In other words, it is well-established that there can be serious adverse reactions between two otherwise good medical treatments (vaccines, pills, etc.). Has there been adequate scientifically testing about the longterm safety effects on a two-year-old who gets some forty (40) vaccinations?

Not to my knowledge.

Problem #3 —

Why isn’t this being done by the CDC or FDA? Good question!

Why haven’t prominent medical organizations (like the AMA) made more of an issue about this clearly risky situation? Good question!

Note the AMA’s mission is stated to be: “To promote the art and science of medicine and the betterment of public health.”

Regretfully, the answer to both of these questions appears to be that these agencies and organizations are heavily influenced by Big Pharma.

What that also means is that these agencies and organizations have significantly departed from their publicized mission statements.

For example, its website boldly states: “CDC increases the health security of our nation. As the nation's health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects people from health threats. To accomplish our mission, CDC conducts critical science and provides health information that protects our nation against expensive and dangerous health threats and responds when these arise.”

FYI, these are the same people who insisted on the necessity of COVID masks, despite 100+ studies concluding that they were unsafe and ineffective.

Problem #4 —

Then COVID-19 is dumped into this unscientific caldron.

Make a wild guess as to what “solution” that Big Pharma will tell federal politicians and government agencies that they ought to rely on for this “global medical crisis”?

Since they have government health agency approval, plus doctors’ support, plus parental compliance to give two-year-old babies some forty injections, clearly no one will object to extending this thinking to adults in an emergency!

Wait! Why not prescribe a medication instead? Reread the prior paragraph.

But shouldn't the federal healthcare policy regarding COVID-19 be what is in the best interest of American citizens? Reread “Problem #3” above.

One silver lining of COVID-19 is that this NIH Study explains how it exposed what was already going on regarding the failing US medical bureaucracy.

Problem #5 —

So our Federal health agencies supported the COVID-19 “solution” of a vaccine. However, there was a HUGE obstacle to that plan: Scientific Safety and Efficacy testing for traditional vaccines takes 10± years to do properly.

Their answer was: since we are in a “global emergency” (pandemic), the normal (i.e., Scientific) way of producing a vaccine will not work.

The solution (agreed to by government agencies who are no longer adhering to their mission statements) is to approve a new type of injection: mRNA.

Here is an outline of some of the significant technical differences between a traditional vaccine and an mRNA injection, and some of the mRNA dangers. Near the time that mRNA was being enthusiastically promoted to the public, this voice of reason spelled out realities. Years later this Study bluntly stated:

“To date [2023], there are no published studies on the biodistribution, cellular uptake, endosomal escape, translation rates, functional half-life and inactivation kinetics of synthetic mRNA, rates and duration of vaccine-induced antigen expression in different cell types.”

The justification for approving these technical changes was that mRNA injections could be developed more quickly than a traditional vaccine could.

Problem #6 —

So now that we understand that we will NOT have the same Scientific testing done on mRNA injections that has usually been done for traditional vaccines, let’s look at the Safety part, as there are several concerning differences.

For example, some studies (e.g., here and here) concluded that short-term adverse events from COVID-19 mRNA exceeded those of traditional vaccines.

That said, the most disturbing difference is that there is essentially zero mid-range and longterm safety testing of mRNA injections.

The possible negative consequences of a COVID-19 bio-chemical injection are far-reaching, and many may not be apparent for years. This study identifies eighteen (18!) pre-existing medical conditions that can lead to adverse COVID-19 injection outcomes, including death.

Here are many other medical conditions, which are mostly not tested for prior to mRNA injection approvals. This study says: “No one actually has any idea of medium- and long-term effects of COVID-19 vaccines.”

All this is due to what is marketed as a benefit: mRNA injections can be approved in a year or so, whereas traditional vaccines take 10± years.

Again, the most important part skipped in the mRNA injection approval process, is medium and long-term safety testing. That’s a VERY BIG deal!

Problem #7 —

Another serious safety concern is that pharmaceutical companies have not disclosed (to date) all of the ingredients in the mRNA injection! Their stock excuse is that this is proprietary information.

“Proprietary information” is a legitimate concern when a company has heavily invested in a product and doesn’t want a competitor to copy their product without incurring the time and cost of R&D. (Think China.)

But who are the COVID-19 competitors of Big Pharma (Pfizer, etc.)?

Further, the primary customer for 95%+ of these injections is the government — and Big Pharma already has signed contracts. So how would they be financially harmed by disclosing the contents of their mRNA injections?

Problem #8 —

Yet another serious obstacle that the powers-that-be encountered in getting the American public to accept their COVID-19 “solution,” is that the mRNA injection did not comply with the CDC’s definition of what a vaccine was!

As mentioned above, for decades the CDC's definition of a vaccine was: “A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.”

Their solution was simple: change the definition!

The new CDC definition of a vaccine: “A preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases.”

Again the takeaway here is that mRNA injections are NOT anything like traditional vaccines, so it is a major misnomer (intended to fool the public) to call them a “vaccine.” The reality is that they are “bio-chemical injections.”

[For some additional concerns about mRNA injections see here.]

Problem #9 —

We probably could have dealt with all of the above, IF there was honest and accurate data regarding the mRNA injections, publicly available. There were two major reasons why this did not happen.

First is the inherent weakness of the voluntary VAERS data system. This Harvard study concluded that (typically) only 1% of adverse outcomes are reported through VAERS! Why wouldn't that have been fixed a long time ago?

Second is that since everyone in the medical establishment involved was laser focused on PTA (instead of Safety and Effectiveness for Americans), accurate mRNA adverse effect data was not going to happen (e.g., see this report). When there were adverse reactions to adults and children getting injected, many of those were ignored, explained away, attributed elsewhere, etc.

As a result, when one looks for data to see what really happened with COVID injections, it is misleading, woefully inadequate, etc — i.e., essentially useless.

Problem #10 —

Yet another pesky problem to the political COVID-19 “solution” was that there was increasing scientific evidence that there were alternative solutions that were: a) much less expensive, b) had few (if any) side-effects, and c) also had solid long-term safety records.

Ivermectin (IVM) is an example. See the details of some 105 scientific studies.

The FDA’s public mission statement says that they are:

“Responsible for advancing the public health by helping to speed innovations that make medical products more effective, safer, and more affordable and by helping the public get the accurate, science-based information they need to use medical products to maintain and improve their health.”

If that was anywhere near accurate, that would mean that the FDA would certainly objectively investigate such a potentially superior option, right? NO!

It would be one thing if the FDA simply ignored IVM — but instead they actually aggressively attacked it — and mocked IVM users as fools for using a “veterinary” product!

It’s stunning that the FDA would take such a stance on what is universally acknowledged as not only a medical wonder drug, (it has been documented as being antiparasitic, antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer!), and also one of the safest pharmaceuticals in history.

To see an agonizing expose about this, watch this short powerful video.

Problem #11 —

Another stunning revelation during the COVID fiasco is that few (if any) preventative options were ever discussed as being beneficial. For example, did the CDC, the FDA, the AMA, or Dr. Fauci ever say anything like:

“Keeping yourself in good health is your first barrier to COVID-19 defense. Part of that would be to take Vitamin D, which has been shown to be a safe and inexpensive anti-viral treatment.” [Note that the study I referenced here was published in 2020, so medical “experts” would have been aware of it.]

Not to my knowledge.

Problem #12 —

An exacerbating situation here is that (pressured by pharmaceutical lobbyists), Congress chose (via the Prep Act, which built on NCVIA ) to protect the interests of vaccine and injection manufacturers, rather than to protect the public’s right to safety, or to provide the public with legal recourse against malfeasance or incompetence by pharmaceutical companies. Hmmm. Didn’t they learn anything from NCVIA?

Big Pharma’s argument was that lawyers were indiscriminate in filing frivolous lawsuits against them, so defending such suits would make it uneconomical for them to produce vaccines, so they would stop.

Certainly, there is some merit to protection from frivolous lawsuits, but it seems like there should be a middle ground here. Instead, it appears that we have gone from one extreme to another.

The Bottom Line —

So when people like RFKjr cast aspersions on vaccines, don’t be fooled by the wails of lamestream media, and other self-serving or misinformed parties.

The takeaway is that the US “vaccine” business has lost its way, and is long overdue for a complete overhaul from stem to stern.

There Are Vaccines, and There Are Not Vaccines

Celebrities can't tell the difference, and someone needs to be held accountable

By Rich Kozlovich

Okay, let's deal with some foundational truths, and one of them is celebrities are idiots. 

We've seen these celebrities hysterical and ignorant demands that everyone get these shots for covid, followed by a lot of virulent name calling and demands those who refuse to get these shots be punished and/or imprisoned.  Because of that insanity people who refused to get these shots, and had serious medical issues, were refused treatment, and they died.  

Who pays for those lives? 

All this for a virus that has a 99.7% recovery rate.   As it turned out these shots that are not vaccines.  These shots don't immunize nor do they prevent transmission, which before this political inspired pandemic was what legally defined what constituted a vaccine.  Now there's evidence these shots make people more susceptible to covid.   These are gene manipulating chemical compounds that have turned out the be deadly, and the negative health impact will be decades in the making. 

Back in the late 50's there was a drug called Thalidomide causing deformities in babies.  Testing showed it was an amazingly safe drug, with multiple applications, except in turned out it wasn't safe for pregnant women.  This triggered a worldwide outrage.  How many children were effected?  Under 15,000 worldwide.  This is our Thalidomide era, only the deaths and negative health consequences from these covid shots are going to be in the millions.  Where's the worldwide outrage?  Who answers for those lives?

But here's the real kicker.

Does anyone besides me think it's amazing these are the same idiots who just a few years ago were demanding we stop vaccinating children with legitimate vaccines because they idiotically claimed these Mumps, Measles, and Rubella (MMR) vaccines caused autism.  I almost hate to post comments about this because I feel like a broken record saying the same things over and over again. 

Real vaccines don’t cause autism.  Real vaccines saved millions of lives.  At the end of WWII the world's population was around two billion people.  There's approximately eight billion now, and make no mistake about it, vaccination played a huge role in saving million of lives, right along with pesticides allowing humanity go produce massive amounts of food.  Both of which these nitwits oppose. 

There was absolutely no science to support this autism nonsense. Every study that has come out has absolutely demonstrated this was a lie.  A lie perpetrated by a corrupt doctor and stupid Hollywood celebrities.

Failure to vaccinate in a society causes disease, heartbreak and unnecessary deaths!  In 2019 the worst measles outbreak in decades swept New York as cases surge in Oregon and Washington, which can only be prevented by vaccination.  

These irrational activists keep making idiotic claims with a stunning lack of consistency.  They've convinced caring parents that they are protecting their precious children when in reality they are removing important shields for good health and life.   And then turned around and insisted their children, who rarely contract covid, get these potentially deadly shots.  

These people have no credibility and clearly no intelligence.  They're actors!  While they can really fake it to make it appear they actually know what they are talking about,  what they're usually doing is merely promoting the leftist meme of the moment.  And society listens to them!

Yesterday they were waiters, waitresses, or parking cars and pumping gas, but now because they sing, act, or dance better than everyday people their opinions on life are sought out.  Remarkable.  Are we to assume that the only way the actual experts are going to be listened to is it they become famous dancers, singers or actors? 

How did we get so brain dead?

Patrice Lewis of Rural Revolution recommended my blog saying:  "One thing about this guy - he doesn't hold back!"  One of her readers posted this comment.  "He doesn't hold back!  Well that's putting it nicely…….. I definitely won't be visiting that blog again. He's just about as abrasive as a sandblaster."

It fascinates me that some are so worried about the sensitivities of those selling death to children.  I absolutely wonder at people’s priorities....and their sanity. I commenting back,  “As for being abrasive; how can someone be gentle with those who are promoting death?"

• Who will answer for the poor children who become afflicted with measles?
• Who will answer for the the side effects of that disease?
• Who will answer for those children who die as a result of the decision by their parents thinking they were protecting their children's health and life? 

What kind of agony must these parents go through?  

What we have here is suicide by success. We have gone so long without serious public health disasters that we have come to believe as a culture that it is our right not to have public health disasters. Well, that isn't the way it works. We created this society by, among other things, vaccinating, applying pesticides, and putting chlorine in our water to save lives and that is exactly what has happened.

It is interesting that those life saving tools are the ones most likely to be attacked by these irrational people.  There has got to be some way to stop them. Where are the ambulance chasing attorneys when you need them? It is my belief that if a few of these people were sued by parents whose children died as a result of not getting vaccinated, then things would change. 

As for this fake pandemic, and these covid shots, there's a lot of people who need to go to prison for what's been done, and Fauci is at the top of the list. 

 

America Out Loud

Clay Clark Sounds the Alarm on AI, Universal Income, and the Great Reset - by Rob and Andrew | May 3, 2023  - After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Entrepreneur and public speaker Clay Clark recently shared with the hosts of “After Dark” that AI is being pushed by our government and those with influence to replace humans. With this push comes massive unemployment. After all, who will need humans to do jobs that robots with AI will do? If people can’t work, they cannot produce an income…

Military Whistleblowers Expose Mask Mandates Based on Lies - by Truth For Health Team  May 3, 2023 -How were the mask mandates used to control people and destroy freedom? What are the dangers and health threats of wearing masks all day at work? What can you do to stand against the mask tyranny employers impose on people? How do you, as one individual, help with specific steps that help advocate for everyone affected by these unlawful mask mandates? All these and more are discussed with our military experts in today’s Whistleblower Report. Then CBRN expert Major Mike Gary reveals the Mask Induce Exhaustion Syndrome (MIES) as one contributing factor to what is called “Long-Covid.” TOver 2, 168 studies now confirm long duration use of face masks creates a wide variety of serious adverse effects damaging health, including low oxygen concentration, excess carbon dioxide build-up and daytime sleepiness, and difficulty thinking. OSHA regulation states any time Oxygen drops below 19.5% is considered Immediately Dangerous to Health and Life (IDLH). Major Gary explains readings with an oxygen detector and the space between the mask and face would exceed the OSHA IDLH threshold and worsen with prolonged mask wearing.........

Ottawa Shows What Happens When Cities Bow to Climate Alarmism - by Tom Harris  May 3, 2023 - Canada’s capital city, Ottawa, is on the verge of a self-induced crisis. This predicament is being brought on by an obsession with “stopping climate change,” prioritizing it over real-world environmental, health, economic, and energy supply concerns. The forecast cost of achieving the City’s net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 target is astonishing: for this city of mere million souls, our municipal government wants to spend $57.4 billion over the three decades between 2020 and 2050, with a present value of $31.8 billion, to supposedly “lead the world” in the ridiculous climate war.

And this is just the estimated direct cost. The actual cost, including spinoffs, to the Ottawa economy and residents will be significantly higher. And one cannot even begin to place a dollar value on eliminating people’s choices about how they wish to live. The fact that China, by far the world’s largest emitter (twice that of the U.S.), has no intention of following the Western world, let alone Ottawa, as it self-flagellates in an attempt to achieve this impossible goal, seems not to concern climate alarmists on the city council.

The magnitude of the “renewable” energy projects that the City says it will engage in to meet its net-zero target are equally astonishing: 36 square kilometers of rooftop solar will be required, a 161,485% increase over today’s levels, 710 industrial wind turbines, each taller than the Statue of Liberty, and 122 large shipping containers of lithium batteries for power storage.............

A Stalinist System of Vote Cheating Threatens America’s Liberty - by Dr. Joel S. Holmes | May 3, 2023 - Understanding the psychology behind a song from the Soviet Union could help in political efforts to salvage Liberty. Understanding this song is key to winning elections. And I am not talking about the Star Spangled Banner or Battle Hymn of The Republic. No, it’s a children’s song from the Soviet Union: “I Want To Be Like Stalin.”  The Soviet Union had a habit of copying Western organizations and then putting them to use with their own totalitarian twist. For example, the Cub Scouts and Boy or Girl Scouts of the West became the Soviet “Pioneers.” Each child had a nice red-neck scarf supplied by the state and was indoctrinated into a totalitarian mindset, such as many universities in the United States do today............

Keep in mind the rule for election victory stated by the hero of the Soviet children, Stalin: “Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.” This is important enough to repeat in a paraphrase: “It’s not who votes, but who counts the votes that matter.”  Fast forward to today, and this brings us to the army of ghost election participants of the Democrat Party. There are two types of Democrat election ghosts. And until and unless these Stalinist political armies are disbursed by political means in accordance with election laws and regulations, winning the presidency and other elections, becomes difficult for Republicans.

DeSantis, Trump, Biden & Kennedy – Will Michelle Obama Be the Plot Twist?  - by Beth Hnat, RN | May 3, 2023 - For those of us who know the truth about the 2020 Presidential election, it might be hard to start talking about 2024 without having closure and correction. It might even be hard for some of us to talk about voting at all, I know it is for me. When you look back at 2020 and the midterms of 2022, blatant corruption takes center stage, and all trust is lost in the process and the system. A system that is, by design, in place to keep us divided and feed us an illusion of choice. Since I don’t think the two-party system is going away anytime soon, and most people still think their vote matters, I wanted to dive in and start discussing a few candidates we know will be running in 2024. To keep thighs even, I’ll look at two well-known Republican candidates and two from the Democratic side..........

The Biden Crime Family Will Undermine Joe’s 2024 Election Campaign - by George McClellan | May 3, 2023 -Wow, Joe Biden just announced his intent to re-up for another four years. In his lackluster three-minute video, I must say that I’ve seen healthier faces lying in a coffin. I suspect it took two or three weeks to complete that three-minute gem. But why now? I suspect that the heat is being turned up, especially when a top-ranked IRS investigative supervisor has had enough of delay, lying, and coverup on Hunter Biden to come forward with his evidence sure to convict the Biden Crime Family of multiple RICO violations. With that said, I remind readers that the government of Joe Biden is a contemptible affront to all Americans, especially those who started life in the 30s and 40s and experienced the loss of fathers, sons, brothers, and uncles to a fascist enemy we didn’t understand but feared because of their lack of respect for human life, their willingness to enslave their enemies and their propensity to destroy everything they touched. Today is the perfect day to initiate impeachment proceedings on Joe Biden, Alejandro Mayorkas, and Antony Blinken and start the reversal ball rolling. Let Democrats feel the expense of defending themselves, this time not from spurious charges but from facts..........

The Dirty Truth About Biden’s Economic Policies & the Pending Recession by Wallace Garneau | May 3, 2023 - There are three things – and only three things – that cause recessions: natural disasters, bad government policies, and/or rapid and unexpected changes in the value of money. Note that I did not list free market failures. The free market does have a boom and bust cycle, but different industries are at different points in that cycle all the time, so unless an economy is overly dependent upon a specific industry, the free market cannot cause more than a local recession. Natural disasters tend to be somewhat local too, so though a tsunami may have caused a recession in Japan, it would be almost impossible for a natural disaster alone to throw a nation as geographically big as the United States into recession – though certainly, it can throw local areas into recession...............

The Bidens Have a Friend in Fox News; Tucker Didn’t - by Mary Fanning | May 2, 2023 - The same government that attempts to sell the false narrative that 2020 was the most secure election in our history, that Hunter Biden’s laptop that had emails documenting Chinese payments going to Joe Biden was “Russian disinformation,” and that J6 was an “insurrection,” is working assiduously to provoke World War III with Russia — in order to cover up their many crimes. The Communist Democrats are destroying America. They are destroying her BORDERS — destroying her common LANGUAGE — and destroying her CULTURE while using CENSORSHIP to keep those who object or expose their lies — muzzled. Censorship By Firing........

Fox News Experiences a Seismic Blowback; Tucker Carlson Is Fox’s Loss! by Daniel Baranowski | May 3, 2023 The Frankly Daniel Show with Daniel Baranowski – Tucker was running as fast as he could toward the light and the truth as he saw it, knowing the day of his firing would come. Dishearteningly, too many anchors at Fox News, Newsmax, and other conservative-leaning networks snipe at the bully dragon of Progressivism. But they never attempt a head-on battle with the dragon driving toward the totalitarian dominion over Americans…..........Adrift after six years of a steady diet of edgy, contrarian, and argumentative topics, Tucker’s audience has no appetite for milquetoast commentary. The more informative and controversial the issue is, the better this audience responded. Tucker said out loud nightly what most of his audience was thinking but would not dare express these thoughts and feelings among so-called polite company. They did not have to; Tucker validated their suspicions and worries on air every night at 8:00 P.M.................

Has the Fear of Nuclear War Tainted the Benefits of Clean Nuclear Energy?,  by Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton  May 2, 2023 -When I was in grammar school, we practiced every Monday at noon, hiding under our desks in case an atomic bomb was dropped. Looking back, being in a navy town and the school near a navy base that likely would take a direct hit, the desk was pretty useless. I’m glad I was in Catholic school, and we had plenty of prayers and a fast track to heaven. By the time I started high school, there was the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, where the USSR deployed nuclear-armed missiles in Cuba. Then there was the threat of terrorists’ “dirty bombs” after 9-11. Now the saber-rattling over Ukraine has put nuclear war worries at the forefront.Thousands of nuclear weapons, 20 to 30 times more powerful than those used on Japan, reside all around the world. Russia and the U.S. each have between 5,000 and 6,000 nuclear weapons, while China has 350, France has 290, the U.K. has 225, and India and Pakistan each have around 160...............

Quantum, China & US Strategy With Kevin Kane - by Edward Haugland | May 3, 2023- The National Security Hour with Edward Haugland – What is quantum computing, and why should Americans care? What are the implications for America and the world’s security if China wins the quantum computing race? What should the U.S. strategy do to advance quantum computing and ensure the resilience and security of our republic?

Helping the Millions Injured by the Poisonous Shots - by Dr. Jordan Vaughn and Dr. Stewart Tankersley May 3, 2023 -Alabama passed a law last week that honored Sen. Dan Roberts’ wife, Anne, who died from COVID after a month in the ICU. The bill that should have never been necessary ⏤ gives patients and their families protections from the medical-industrial-complexes, abuses, and basic imprisonment of their patients. This past weekend Dr. Vaughn spoke at the 2nd FLCCC science conference, which was another huge success. The evidence that was presented needs to be understood and distributed widely in order to help the millions (? billions) of those injured (many killed) by these poisonous shots........

“A Fraction of a Second on the Nuclear Clock” by Greg Boulden | May 3, 2023 - The Biden Administration is marching us toward war. The country is sending billions to Ukraine while the UK is running the front of the operation. Republicans and Democrats do not seem to be united in an anti-war movement. Enter an Independent candidate and voice, Diane Sare.  Today we speak about the bank bailouts, the corruption of government from billionaires, and the potential for a military-industrial complex with an appetite for destruction....

Government Rewriting the Rules - by Paul Engel  May 3, 2023 -Most of us try to rewrite the rules from time to time. We claim driving 5-10 mph over the speed limit is lawful. We claim deductions on our taxes that we know are sketchy at best. And I encounter people almost every day who try to rewrite what the Constitution says to get their way.  But what happens when those we hire to represent us, who take an oath to support the Constitution, try to get around the rules?  There are plenty of examples of those in government rewriting the rules and only a few of those trying to stop them. They have become so common some people have started calling these attempts war. War on freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and even the Constitution itself. In this battle, for who creates the rules and who follows them, which side will win? Will the United States continue to be the experiment in self-government that George Washington called us, or are we devolving into the very subjects of aristocracy that our Founding Fathers fought against?

Here are today's articles and podcasts as posted by 10:20 AM.  I've been impressed with so much of what appears here, but as usual, I don't always agree with authors.  I've taken exception with "My Take", on one article dealing with GMO's, and while I've read this author's pieces in the past and agreed, I put this article on the same par as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his absolutely correct views on the Covid vaccines.  And that's the problem.  He's been an irrational anti-vax nut for years, and this gives inappropriate, and undeserved credibility to the rest of his nutty views.  Since these false vaccines are genetic manipulators, it gives the anti-GMO nitwits inappropriate and underserved credibility on all genetically manipulated products.  I address that below, and with sources, since I've been writing about these immoral GMO misfits for many years.

President Trump Must Expose Operation Warp Speed by Dr. Steve LaTulippe - May 1, 2023 = Surely Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, and all their genocide cohorts are smiling broadly. Recent projections suggest they may ultimately achieve their global depopulation goals. But before we lynch President Trump, we must answer a few questions. First, are we truly justified to align President Trump with the likes of eugenics maniacs and sociopaths? Second, how do we construe Trump’s silence on the vaccine issue?........

CCP’s Spider Web-Like United Front Network & Its Rampant Violations of US Sovereignty - by Dr. Li-Meng Yan | May 1, 2023 - Dr. Li-Meng Yan w/ The Voice of Dr. Yan – The House select committee on CCP issued a letter to the FBI and DOJ, seeking answers about the FBI’s strategy and efforts in investigating and combating CCP’s secret police stations on American soil. As pointed out at the end of the letter, “US law enforcement agencies must hold these perpetrators to account and better protect the U.S. from further threats.”.............

Genetically Modified Organisms and Your Diet, by Dr. Peter McCullough | May 1, 2023 - We dedicate this issue of the Report to information about how plants in the food chain are being directly modified to survive herbicide which is widely applied to get rid of competing weeds. Our guest, Steve Smith, will take us through this complicated set of terminology and help us understand what it all means. With his permission, I have adapted this information from his website Institute for Responsible Technology. What is a GMO? GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organism. We can also use genetically modified or genetically engineered..............

My Take -  I've been writing about GMO's for many years and this piece is simply wrong. He claims there is "as usual collateral damage" for the use of BT, but fails to say what that damage is. However, there has been very real documentation regarding damage perpetrated on humanity by these green misfits due to their resistance to GMO's, especially Golden Rice, which could have saved millions of lives in Asia by adding Vitamin A to their diet.

"It’s one of the world’s most preventable tragedies. Every year, as many as 500,000 children go blind because their diet contains an insufficient amount of vitamin A. Half of these children will die prematurely, typically from diarrhea and measles. Many more will have stunted growth." - 

• Anti-GMO activists routinely label scientists and biotech supporters "shills for Monsanto." However, a new study suggests that those who spread GMO disinformation are the ones who are actually motivated by money. 
• Year-Long Investigation Refutes Myth of 'Grassroots' Anti-GMO Activism 
• Viewpoint: Documentary ‘Modified’ peddles falsehoods about GMOs, pesticides and ‘corporate control’ of food 

The author needs to seriously re-evaluate his views.  While I agree these false vaccines, which are nothing more than gene altering compounds that haven't been property tested, are clearly dangerous and even deadly, but compounds when properly tested have created grand advances in medicine by gene editing. GMO's Are Not the Problem. They're the Answer! - Not only is GMO resistance unscientific and irrational, it's immoral.

Minnesota Has Become Trans Health Refuge State for Children  -by April Snipes RNFA, BSN, CNOR | May 2, 2023 -  Nurses Out Loud with April Snipes RNFA, BSN, CNOR – Minnesota has joined California in becoming a sanctuary state for minors seeking gender-affirming healthcare. If your child seeks care in Minnesota, you will not be able to get access to them, nor have them extradited and brought back home due to new laws that have been passed. State Rep Leigh Fink is the chief author of HF 1655, a bill that seeks to establish gender identity as a protected category and aims to remove existing legislation that allows for discrimination based on sexual orientation. This includes those who have a sexual attachment to minors. What does this mean for parents?.........

 

Wow! $32 Billion Wasted by US Government on mRNA Vaccines!

by Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn | Mar 13, 2023 | Global, Health, Politics

Since the launch of their covid-19 vaccines, Moderna and Pfizer have accumulated more than $100bn (£83; €94) in global revenues from sales—more than 20 times the World Health Organization’s biennial budget in 2020-21. Yet for a vaccine that is estimated to cost $1-3 per dose to manufacture, both Moderna and Pfizer have announced plans to charge more than $110 a dose in the US this year—a price that Moderna’s CEO Stéphan Bancel has argued is “consistent with the value” of these vaccines.” But value for whom?...........To Read More....

Unanswered Covid questions

March 7, 2023 By Jonathan Cohen

As Covid 19 fades as a public health emergency into a more manageable nuisance like seasonal flu, lingering questions about the disease’s origin and our health officials’ response have come into play. Questions about the role of the Wuhan Lab, effectiveness of vaccines, lockdowns and masks and the question of the role of politics in our Covid response need to be explored. The recent revelation that both the FBI and the Department of Energy have now publicly stated that the theory that the virus escaped from a lab in Wuhan is the most likely explanation for the disease’s origin provide a good background for the beginning of House hearings on the origin of the pandemic.

Here are some questions that deserve exploration.......To Read More....Much More....

A Look Inside the “Vaccines” and the Blood of the Jabbed

Are unlisted ingredients in these vaccines proprietary secrets or unintentional contaminants?

More than 12.7 billion doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered since the treatment became available nearly two years ago. Some have received one or two doses, while others have had multiple doses. Yet many don’t know what these shots actually contain.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website provides ingredient lists for curious consumers to consider. For example, vials from Moderna and BioNTech/Pfizer famously contain messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA). This is a genetic sequence designed to program your cells to manufacture a spike protein, thereby training the immune system to guard against the signature spike of the COVID-19 virus in the wild.

Less well-known ingredients include a different mix of lipids (fats). Pfizer’s shot, for example, contains 4-hydroxybutyl, and Moderna’s contains SM-102. These shots also include polyethylene glycol, cholesterol, a few salts (such as potassium chloride and sodium chloride), and sucrose (sugar)........To Read More....

My Take - This issue isn't about what's in these chemical compounds as what do those compounds do, and that's the problem, no one knows because these false "vaccines" haven't been properly tested.  They came on the market with less than two years testing when it normally takes ten to twelve years.  

They've changed the definition of what constitutes a vaccine in order to declare these are "vaccines", they are not.  They do not prevent transmission, nor do they prevent infections, which was the foundational criteria for a compound to be defined as a vaccine, ergo, these are experimental chemical compounds that, one, don't work, two, don't prevent transmission, and are having a massively negative impact on the health of untold millions all over the world.  

This is our thalidomide era, which caused national outrage, and that drug only effected thousands.  These compounds are effecting millions, and will continue to impact millions for decades to come.  Especially the children governments are forcing to be "vaccinated" with these dangerous compounds. And that's the view of someone who has been a big supporter of vaccines for decades. Me!

Tragic: 14-Year Old Vaccine Myocarditis Victim - By Rav Arora On May 12th of last year -  Vaccine myocarditis is not trivial, mild, or “rare.” In young men, it’s a far greater risk than Covid hospitalization and death. On May 12th of last year, school teacher Emily Jo took her 14-year-old son Aiden to get his first Pfizer vaccine dose. The public health authorities and her son’s pediatrician unanimously recommended vaccination, prompting her decision. She knew that mRNA shots caused some number of adverse events, like all vaccines, but was re-assured by the CDC and White House’s public recommendation. “The talk amongst the mainstream medical community was that vaccine myocarditis was mild and that this was very rare,” she told me..................

In the case of COVID-19 vaccines causing myocarditis, we aren’t dealing with trivial ratios of one in a million or even one in ten thousand. Among the most robust data we have—according to Dr. Tracy Beth Hoeg (Florida Health department) and Dr. Marty Makary (Johns Hopkins University)—is from Dr. Katie Sharff (who had her young son vaccinated) and colleagues, who analyzed a wide database from Kaiser Permanente...............

COVID Vaccine Drama Disaster? You Probably Don’t Know the Half of It!

by Dr. Jay Lehr | Sep 25, 2022 | Global, Health, Politics @ America Out Loud

 

Four years ago, the globalists began making massive marketing expenditures to prepare the world for future dangerously rushed vaccination programs. The propaganda splurge was stunning, and before 2017 was over, they were already predicting and preparing the world specifically for a SARS-CoV pandemic through which to impose their vaccines on humanity at the first opportunity.

After decades of seeing the corruption among Big Pharma, Dr. Peter Breggin and his wife Ginger learned that COVID-19 was about forcing humanity to submit to experimental, dangerous, and costly vaccines. This was used to justify increasing totalitarian power. One can now begin to unravel the overall scheme for exploiting humanity.

The Breggins’ reported in their new book, Covid-19 And The Global Predators: We Are The Prey, how a loose but coordinated array of billionaires, tech companies, public health schools and authorities, major worldwide corporations, and their allies had been planning at least as early as 2016 to make a financial killing on what they defined and repeatedly predicted as the inevitable and soon-to-arrive pandemic. 

Dr. Peter Breggin calls Dr. Peter McCullough one of the world’s most prominent medical doctors with expertise in treating COVID-19. McCullough has gone on the record with a scathing rebuke of the U.S. government’s approach to fighting the virus. Breggin and McCullough agree the government strategy has been dictated mainly by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in cooperation with the United Nations and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Bill Gates and the CCP are now clearly in control of the WHO. The WHO program has resulted in thousands of deaths and is now being followed up possibly by thousands more deaths from a mass-injection program. 

Dr. Breggin said in interviews with AmericaOutLoud’s The Other Side of the Story hosted by Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris, “If this were any other vaccine, it would have been pulled from the market by now for safety reasons.”

Breggin, who has many decades of experience, said he could think of no vaccine ever causing 50 fatalities without it being pulled from the market. McCullough, who agrees with Breggin, holds the honor of being the most cited medical doctor on COVID-19 treatments at the National Library of Medicine, with more than 600 citations.

The Centers for Disease Control’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has reported 3,544 deaths from mid-December 2021 through April 2022, along with 12,619 serious injuries.

Breggin told Lehr and Harris that “a new drug causing five unexplained deaths, creates a warning and with about 50 deaths, it is taken off the market.”

In 1976 during the Swine Flu pandemic, the U.S. attempted to vaccinate 55 million Americans, but at the point, the shot had caused nearly 500 cases of paralysis and 25 deaths, the program was stopped. 

How were Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are given a clear path when their vaccines caused devastation? The shots had never been granted full FDA approval and were only allowed on the market under an Emergency Use Authorization.

Then on March 8, the CDC announced on their website with very little fanfare that they had reviewed about 1,600 deaths with unnamed FDA doctors, and they indicated not a single death was related to the vaccine. Can we trust the CDC any longer? Such investigations typically take months. They have no credibility any longer.

Even worse is that studies, including one from Harvard University, estimate that only 1 to 10 percent of all vaccine-related deaths get reported to VAERS. In all likelihood, more people have died from the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines than have been reported.

Reporting a death requires a healthcare worker to enter it into the system. And if the death does not occur within the standard 15-minute monitoring period, they often go unreported. As a comparison: There are 20 to 30 deaths reported annually to VAERS related to the flu shot. That’s with 195 million receiving flu shots, compared to 2,602 reported deaths from 77 million covid vaccinations.

That is the highest number of vaccine deaths for any vaccine in U.S. history, yet no major media outlet has launched an investigation. Independent journalists and researchers such as Alex Newman, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Leo Hohmann have been ruthlessly censored for exposing this travesty. 

In a recent interview with Peter McCullough, Alex Newman said, “The U.S. government has made a commitment, along with the stakeholders – the CDC, NIH, FDA, Big Pharma, World Health Organization, Gates Foundation – to mass vaccination as the solution to the COVID pandemic. We’re sitting, right now, on the biggest number of vaccine deaths and tens of thousands of hospitalizations, all attributable to the vaccine, and going strong.”

McCullough testifying before the U.S. Senate on Nov 19, 2020, said half of all lives lost could have been saved; others believe more.

The government and its “stakeholders” in Big Pharma chose to focus on vaccines. At the same time, news organizations were recruited to present only one side of the vaccine story.

What if the COVID-19 vaccines are not really vaccines?

March 16, 2022  By Paul S. Gardiner

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."

If indeed Moderna and Pfizer corporations are misrepresenting their experimental gene therapies as bona fide vaccines, Dr. Martin states that "the legal ramifications of this deception are immense — from a legal view, both Moderna and Pfizer qualify as using illegal deceptive practices by making medical claims without clinic trial proof of immunity and transmission blocking.  The U.S. Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S. Code, Section 41, outlaws such deceptive practices."..........To Read More...

 

The Associated Press Has Quietly Come Around on a Drug It Once Used to Scorch Ron DeSantis

Seems the Associated Press would have reported on this development after it took a hard line against its promotion.

By Brad Slager Dec 21, 2021  

There seems to be a side-effect emerging from the new outbreak of the Omicron variant this winter. You may have experienced dizziness, confusion, or bouts of speechlessness – not from this COVID strain, but from the radical 180-degree shift experienced in the press. Suddenly, we see journalists saying things that mere months ago were grounds for de-platforming, or possibly being rounded up and placed in state custody, like a Down Under lock up.

Seemingly overnight and barely a week since Twitter forbade such discourse members of the press were freely commenting how people who were double-vaxxed and even boosted could contract COVID. Then we saw Brian Stelter, of all people, come out and push for kids to go back to school by saying things such as, "Shouldn't we be doing more to protect children by letting them live normal lives? Or, to pose the Q another way, are we really going to close schools again and let kids suffer even more?" Ron DeSantis was basically called a child-killer last summer when he said the very same type of things.

And on the subject of Florida's governor, the Associated Press had a curious report about the Omicron surge. In detailing what may lie ahead, the news syndicate indicated how the new strain could render some existing treatments as ineffective in battling the virus. Omicron may sideline two leading drugs against COVID-19, touts the headline. That word leading is what jumps out here, considering the drugs being covered. Next, there is this quote.

For more than a year antibody drugs from Regeneron and Eli Lilly have been the go-to treatments for early COVID-19, thanks to their ability to head off severe disease and keep patients out of the hospital.

This is a deeply curious development. Because four months ago, this same news outlet had taken Governor Ron DeSantis to task for his promoting Regeneron as a treatment for those who contract COVID. That article suggested the main reason he was pushing so hard for it was that a hedge fund with heavy investments in the drugmaker was a campaign donor. The wheels came off of this report in short order.

 

Mom, forced to get vaccine before family wedding, ends up in emergency roo

Needed jab ahead of dress fitting

 

By Michele Blood | Fox News February 5, 2022   

 

A daughter's wedding – and all that goes with it – should be about pure joy and celebration. Nothing less. Yet one New Jersey mother – because of New York City's COVID vaccine mandates that began last summer – found herself enduring a medical emergency she never imagined.

 

Kathleen Zemlachenko, 63, of Raritan Township, N.J., had chosen not to take the COVID-19 vaccine after consulting with her doctor. Fit and active, Zemlachenko had already tested positive for COVID in January 2021. She had very high antibody levels to prove it............Read the full story ›

 

 

More preliminary evidence that the vaccines have led to a spike in deaths

By Professor X

A recent shocking report in American Thinker suggests that life insurance payouts are considerably worse than executives expected.  Obvious question: Is it an aberration, or is it for real?  Alas, a cursory examination suggests that it may be for real.

The scan of the following insurance companies confirms the initial report.  For Prudential, they have had a massive 87% increase in death benefits paid comparing the third quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2021.  Such a detailed breakdown wasn't available for New York Life, but their 2021 year to date (1 Jan to 30 Sep) death benefit payout is up by 27%.  Examining Pacific Life documents identifies multiple units.  For Pacific Life, the year-to-date claims are up by only 12%.  But for a subsidiary, Pacific Life and Annuity, claims are up by over 80%.  This is an opportunistic search; more data may be forthcoming. ......To Read More

 

The real efficacy rates of the COVID vaccines

December 30, 2021 By Andy Zhao

The Biden administration and the mainstream media have been pushing a mandate of the experimental COVID vaccines for the American people.  Their talking point is that "COVID vaccines are effective and work against the pandemic."  That's not true.  I have been following the "U.K. vaccine surveillance report" since last September and have seen enough evidence about the real efficacy of the COVID vaccines to show that they're not as good as advertised. 

My last essay revealed that more vaccinated people have been using the health care system in U.K. than unvaccinated people.  Now I am going to talk about how the MSM and politicians use so-called "rates" to hide the truth and to misrepresent the actual data to further their narratives.

Here is an example of the "unadjusted rates" chart in the U.K. Vaccine Surveillance report, Week 51. ........To Read More....

The FDA Slaps Major Warning About Pfizer Drug as Vaccine Reactions Come Under Scrutiny

by Kyle Becker

The FDA has recently admitted there is now major concern over another Pfizer product. It is now slapping a warning on a class of anti-inflammatory treatments called JAK inhibitors. “The U.S. health regulator has added its strictest warning to the labels of drugs from Pfizer, Eli Lilly and AbbVie belonging to a class of anti-inflammatory treatments called JAK inhibitors, citing risk of serious health issues and death in patients 50 and over,” Reuters reported on Friday, citing the drug manufacturers.

“The addition of the warning on the labels follows the agency’s review of Pfizer’s Xeljanz after initial results from a February trial showed an increased risk of serious heart-related problems and cancer in some patients being treated with the drug,” the report added..........To Read More.....
