Who is more likely to spread the pertussis bacterium (aka, whooping cough)—those vaccinated or those unvaccinated? The reality (see FDA, industry, and pharma scientists sources below) is that it is the vaccinated. Why? Two reasons. First, those vaccinated are less likely to have symptoms if infected with the pertussis bacterium but the bacterium still multiplies in their nasopharynx and they then unknowingly spreading it to others (instead of showing symptoms and knowing to isolate). Not science fiction—the hard cold facts as detailed below. Second, and this makes the reality even worse, because after an unvaccinated person has been infected with pertussis (and is more likely to have symptoms and stay in bed) that person won’t get infected again for at least many years – but the vaccinated individual can become infected over, and over, and over again with the pertussis bacterium because of the defective immunity this vaccine generates. But don’t worry, legacy media, no doubt won’t let the facts stand in the way of their hyperbolic reporting. They will blindly, like religious adherents, seek to blame, persecute, and shame those who do not inject this product instead of facing the reality: those vaccinated are more likely to spread this pathogen. If you don’t agree with the foregoing, take it up with the FDA, industry scientists, infectious diseases societies, and the hard cold data and science: - As the FDA explained in 2024: “aP [acellular pertussis] containing vaccines induce helper T cells (TH2) memory and neutralizing antibody responses that effectively prevent symptomatic disease but fail to prevent colonization and carriage.” fda.gov/media/181937/d… - As those considered the world's leading pertussis vaccine experts, pharma consultants, and infectious disease societies explained in a consensus paper on pertussis vaccine in 2019: “Natural infection evokes both mucosal and systemic immune responses, while aPVs [acellular pertussis vaccines] induce only a systemic immune response. … Mucosal immunity is essential to prevent colonization and transmission of B. pertussis organisms. Consequently, preventive measures such as aPVs that do not induce a valid mucosal response can prevent disease but cannot avoid infection and transmission. … aPV pertussis vaccines do not prevent colonization. Consequently, they do not reduce the circulation of B. pertussis and do not exert any herd immunity effect.” pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31333640/ They also explained that: “Lack of mucosal immune responses after aPV administration favor infection, persistent colonization, and transmission of the pathogen.” - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29180031/ (“That vaccination does not prevent B. pertussis infection in humans, nor the circulation of the organism in human populations in any important manner, comes from the observation that the inter-epidemic intervals have not changed in a major way since the implementation of mass vaccination.”); pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30793754/ (“Because of linked-epitope suppression, all children who were primed by DTaP vaccines will be more susceptible to pertussis throughout their lifetimes, and there is no easy way to decrease this increased lifetime susceptibility.”). For a detailed discussion with many more citations and irrefutable evidence, see Chapter 9 of Vaccines, Amen.

If you pray, I ask you to join me in praying for the Patterson family. Almost 4 years ago, their baby twins were taken from them due to injuries they got from having Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and metabolic bone disorder. DCF insisted that their injuries were caused by abuse, despite the fact that every single medical expert, including the former Child Protection Team (CPT) doctor who previously worked with DCF, have reviewed the case and found that the children’s injuries are consistent with their medical conditions, not abuse. At one point, the twins were getting worse under DCF care until they started giving them medical care for their conditions, further proving that their injuries were caused by their conditions. They need care, not to be taken from their parents. Despite all of this, DCF is moving forward with permanently terminating Michael and Tasha's parental rights and immediately placing their children with adoption. Please join me in praying that God softens the hearts and opens the eyes of @GovRonDeSantis and @hatchfl, the head of DCF, and gives them wisdom to review this case, reverse course and give the Patterson twins back to Michael and Tasha. We pray that God gives Michael and Tasha peace and comfort during this difficult time. We pray that God gives us the clarity and strength we need to defend this family until their children are returned to them. We pray this in the mighty Name of Jesus, Amen.

I think I know why everything sucks... ...and it's because everything is fake We are getting fake college degrees that cost 4 years and six figures that teach you fake education and get you fake jobs. We are eating fake food, with fake ingredients, funded by fake research. We are scrolling through fake lives, with fake relationships, who take fake, curated vacations to promote brands that make fake products. We are voting for fake candidates, who run on fake promises, inside a fake system that was never designed to fix anything. We are raising kids in fake schools that teach fake history, fake science, which quietly produce fake adults who can't think for themselves. We are watching fake news, about fake crises, produced by fake journalists, for fake outrage. We are borrowing fake money that was printed from nothing, to fund a fake economy that would collapse in an afternoon if people stopped pretending it was real. We are buying fake organic food that's just a paid label, and drinking fake juice with two percent juice in it, and putting fake cheese on cheeseburgers that's just "cheese product" on fake burger meat. We are donating to fake nonprofits where the moeny never makes it to the people and then funding fake foreign aid that buys real weapons to prop up fake governments. We are going to fake therapy that teaches fake coping skills instead of telling you hard truths. We are buying fake furniture made of fake wood that's actually compressed sawdust and glue that looks like wood, ships in fourteen boxes with instructions written in a fake language that isn't quite any language, requires tools it doesn't include, takes 4 hours to build, wobbles on day 1, and is totally destroyed in 6 months. We are downloading fake "free" apps that charge a subscription after three days for AI features that don't work, hidden behind a paywall we didn't see, protected by a privacy policy we didn't read, buried inside Terms of Service written by lawyers specifically so we wouldn't read them, that we agreed to by tapping a button the size of a thumbnail, that gave a company we've never heard of the right to sell our data to companies we'll never hear of, to build a profile on us we'll never see, to influence decisions we'll never know were made. IT. IS. ALL. FAKE. And we all yearn for what was once real. Don't you remember? Did you forget? There was a time with a simple handshake between men was a contract. When bread went stale because... well, that's what real bread does! When kids played outside all day until it was dark, and nobody tracked them. When a family could live off a single income. When music was made by people who LIVED something real and you could feel it. When schools was HARD... and that was the point! When doctors knew your name and your family, they even came to your house, When you bought something once... and it was yours forever. When the chair your grandmother bought once lasted 70 years and she passed it onto your dad. And now nothing is real, and that's why everything sucks.

the hospital you were born in charged your mother $40 for the first time she held you it's called "skin-to-skin contact" and there's a billing code for it. CPT 99460. your mother went through labor, pushed a human being out of her body, and the hospital charged her forty dollars for the privilege of touching her own child this is the same billing system that's destroying your credit score right now a single ER visit generates 15-40 individual line items. each one has a CPT code. each code has a chargemaster price set by the hospital. and that chargemaster is a fictional document that has no connection to the actual cost of anything a bag of IV saline: hospital cost $0.86, chargemaster price $400-$900 a single acetaminophen tablet (tylenol): hospital cost $0.02, chargemaster price $15-$50 a basic blood panel: lab cost $12, chargemaster price $200-$1,100 a CT scan: equipment cost per scan ~$50, chargemaster price $3,000-$10,000 every single one of these inflated charges becomes a "debt" when you don't pay. and that debt gets sold to a collector for 2-4 cents on the dollar. and that collector puts it on your credit report as if you actually owe $47 for a tylenol tablet there are 100 million americans carrying medical debt right now. roughly 1 in 3 adults. it's the #1 cause of collections on credit reports and the #1 reason people file bankruptcy in this country and most of it is made up numbers from a document nobody was supposed to see the play: for any medical bill over $1,000, ALWAYS request the itemized bill first. not the summary bill they send you (one big number designed to scare you into paying). the line-by-line itemized version with CPT codes for every charge google each CPT code against the fair market rate at fairhealthconsumer.org. compare what the hospital charged versus what the procedure actually costs in your geographic area. you will find overcharges on almost every bill. sometimes 3x. sometimes 10x once you have the itemized bill, call the hospital billing department and say this: "i'm reviewing my itemized charges and i've identified several line items that significantly exceed fair market rates for my area. i'd like to discuss an adjustment before this goes any further. i also want to confirm whether i qualify for your financial assistance program under your charity care policy" every nonprofit hospital in america (which is most of them) is legally required to have a financial assistance policy under Section 501(r) of the Internal Revenue Code. if your income falls below a certain threshold relative to the federal poverty level (usually 200-400% FPL), the hospital must reduce or eliminate your bill entirely. they are required by law to have this program and required to tell you about it most don't tell you about it. because every dollar you pay in full is a dollar they don't have to write off if the bill has already gone to collections: the collector bought inflated chargemaster numbers for pennies. they can't produce the original itemized bill. they can't explain the CPT codes. they can't verify the charges are accurate. they bought a spreadsheet send the validation letter under FDCPA 809. demand the original itemized statement with CPT codes, the payment history showing insurance adjustments, and proof the remaining balance is accurate after all insurance payments and contractual adjustments collectors almost never have this level of documentation for medical accounts. the hospital sold the debt and moved on. the paperwork went with it a woman came to us with $67,000 in medical collections across three hospital visits. we requested itemized bills for all three. found $23,000 in duplicate charges, upcoded procedures, and facility fees that were already included in the surgeon's bill. disputed the collections using the itemized discrepancies as evidence. two collectors couldn't validate at all. the third settled for $4,200 on a $31,000 account she went from $67,000 in medical debt to $4,200 in total payments. her score went from 541 to 718 in 90 days. she bought a house 6 months later the hospital charged your mom $40 to hold you. and they'll charge you $50 for a tylenol today. and they'll put both on your credit report if you don't pay. and they'll sell it for pennies to a collector who'll harass you for years the entire system runs on your ignorance. the billing, the collections, the reporting. every layer depends on you never looking at the itemized charges and never questioning the numbers we look at the numbers. we question everything. and we get the bullshit off your credit report. link in bio

John Taylor Gatto was named New York State Teacher of the Year. Upon receiving the award, he quit and spent the rest of his life writing devastating critiques of the educational system he had mastered. Gatto argued that regardless of the official curriculum, schools actually teach seven hidden lessons. The first is confusion. Students learn disconnected facts across dozens of subjects with no integration or meaning. The second is class position. Students learn their place in the social hierarchy. The third is indifference. Students learn that nothing is worth finishing because the bell always rings. The fourth is emotional dependency. Students learn to surrender their will to a chain of command. The fifth is intellectual dependency. Students learn to wait for experts to tell them what to think. The sixth is provisional self-esteem. Students learn that their worth depends on expert evaluation. The seventh is that they are always being watched and have no privacy. These lessons, Gatto argued, are the actual function of schooling. The explicit curriculum of reading, writing, and arithmetic is almost incidental. The real purpose is to produce passive, dependent, compliant citizens who wait for authorities to tell them what to do and think. Trad schooling amounts to thirteen years of training in being passive and dependent. I have seen this play out with hundreds of students. When I created Montessori middle schools in the San Francisco Bay Area, about half the students came up through Montessori elementary and about half came from public schools. When we opened, the Montessori kids immediately began doing their work, taking initiative, choosing what to tackle first. The public school students were lost. They would stare at their desks until we walked over and helped them plan their morning. It took at least a semester, sometimes a full year, before they could function in an environment that asked them to direct their own learning. These were not less intelligent children. They had simply been trained differently. For years, someone else had made all the decisions about what they would do, when they would do it, and how they would do it. When that structure was removed, they did not know how to operate. Agency is natural to children unless we train it out of them. When I coach parents on evaluating their children's education, I tell them to ignore grades entirely. The question is whether their children are taking initiative, being responsible, and becoming empowered moral beings. If a child is getting straight A's but has no initiative and no sense of personal responsibility, that child is being damaged by their education regardless of how it looks on paper.

Welcome to the healthcare industry... Where the numbers are made up and no one actually cares.
Peter Girnus 🦅@gothburz

I am Sam Hazen, CEO of HCA Healthcare. The largest for-profit hospital system in the United States. One hundred and eighty-two hospitals. Twenty states. I oversee a spreadsheet called the chargemaster. It has 42,000 line items. Each line item is a price. The prices are not real. I need to be precise about that. They are not estimates. Not approximations. Not market rates. They are anchors. An anchor is a number you set high so that every negotiated discount feels like a victory. No relationship to cost. No relationship to value. A relationship to leverage. My team sets the anchors. That is the job. The price is correct. Take a drug. Keytruda. Immunotherapy. Treats sixteen types of cancer. The manufacturer charges approximately $11,000 per dose. That is the acquisition cost. What the hospital pays. My team enters it into the chargemaster. They do not enter $11,000. They enter $43,000. That is the gross charge. The gross charge is a fiction. No one pays it. No one is expected to pay it. The gross charge exists so that when Blue Cross negotiates a 68% discount, they pay $13,760, and the contract says "68% discount" and both parties feel the transaction was rigorous. A 68% discount on a fictional price produces a real price that is 25% above acquisition cost. That margin is where I live. My 2025 compensation was $26.5 million. Eighty percent of my bonus is tied to EBITDA. Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. It is also earnings before the patient opens the bill. Same dose of Keytruda at the hospital across town. Gross charge: $12,000. Blue Cross rate: $10,200. Same drug. Same dose. Same needle. Same cancer. Different spreadsheet. The CMS transparency data showed the ratio between the highest and lowest negotiated price for the same drug at the same hospital can reach 2,347 to one. Not 2x. Not 10x. Not 100x. Two thousand three hundred and forty-seven to one. For the same thing. In the same building. On the same Tuesday. The price is correct. Every drug in the chargemaster has twelve prices. Twelve. Gross charge. Medicare rate. Medicaid rate. Blue Cross. Aetna. Cigna. UnitedHealth. Humana. Workers' comp. Tricare. Auto insurance. And the self-pay rate. The self-pay rate is for the person without insurance. It is the gross charge. The fictional number. The anchor. The person without insurance pays the number that was designed to be negotiated down from. They pay the ceiling because they have no one to negotiate on their behalf. Same drug. Same chair. Same nurse. They pay the price that no insurer in the country would accept. I maintain a file. CDM line item 637-4892-PKB. Saline flush. Sodium chloride 0.9%. Acquisition cost: $0.47. We charge $87. That is an 18,410% markup. The saline flush is used before and after every IV infusion. A chemo patient receiving twelve cycles will be charged $87 for saline fourteen times per visit. I know the math. My team built the math. The math is the job. The price is correct. In 2021, the federal government required hospitals to publish their prices. The Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Machine-readable file. Gross charges. Discounted cash prices. Payer-specific negotiated rates. We complied. We posted the file. The file is a 9,400-row CSV on our website under "Patient Financial Resources." Four clicks from the homepage. Column F: "CDM_GROSS_CHG." Column J: "DERV_PAYERID_NEGRATE." My team designed the column headers. They designed them to comply. They did not design them to communicate. CMS reported 93% of hospitals now post a file. Compliance. But only 62% of the posted data is usable. That gap is where we operate. We are compliant. The data is published. The data is incomprehensible. A researcher downloaded our file. She spent three weeks cleaning it. She called the billing department for clarification on 340 line items. They transferred her four times. The fourth transfer was to a voicemail box that was full. She published her analysis anyway. Cardiac catheterization lab charges: $8,200 to $71,000 for the same procedure depending on the payer. The report received eleven views on our press monitoring dashboard. I saw it. I did not forward it. On April 1, a new CMS rule takes effect. Hospital CEOs must personally attest — by name, encoded in the machine-readable file — that the pricing data is "true, accurate, and complete." My name. Sam Hazen. In the file. Attesting that 42,000 fictional anchors are true, accurate, and complete. They are complete. I will give them that. Forty-two thousand line items is nothing if not complete. A new analyst read the transparency data. She asked why the same MRI costs $450 for Medicare and $4,200 for Aetna in the same building on the same machine. I told her the rates reflect negotiated contractual agreements between the payer and the facility. She said that doesn't explain the difference. I told her the difference IS the contractual agreement. She said that sounds like the price is arbitrary. I told her the price is the result of a rigorous, multi-variable analysis that accounts for acuity, case mix, regional market dynamics, and payer contract terms. She asked if I could show her the analysis. I told her the analysis is proprietary. The analysis does not exist. The analysis is my team, in Q4, adjusting the chargemaster upward by the percentage the CFO wrote on a sticky note. The sticky note this year said "6-8%." They chose 7.4% because it is between six and eight and it has a decimal, which makes it look calculated. She stopped asking. The price is correct. My insurance. The executive health plan. Not in the chargemaster. Administered separately. I do not pay the gross charge. I do not pay the negotiated rate. I pay a $20 copay for services at our own facilities. Gross charge for my treatment: $14,200. Insured rate for our largest commercial payer: $8,600. I pay $20. The executive health plan was designed by the Chief Human Resources Officer and approved by the compensation committee. I was not on the compensation committee. I was a beneficiary of it. That is a different thing. I benefit from the system I price. I price the system I benefit from. These are two separate facts that happen to involve the same person. HCA Healthcare was named the Most Admired Company in our industry by Fortune magazine for the twelfth consecutive year. That was February. The same month I sold $21.5 million in company stock and purchased zero shares. Fortune did not ask about the chargemaster. I am Sam Hazen, CEO of HCA Healthcare. I have 42,000 prices in a spreadsheet across 182 hospitals. None of them are real. All of them are charged. Same drug: $12,000 or $43,000. Depends on which spreadsheet. Which building. Which contract. Which page of which PDF. The patient who has no contract pays the most. The researcher who found the discrepancy got a voicemail box that was full. The analyst who asked why stopped asking. The executive who prices the system pays $20. On April 1, I will personally attest that this is true, accurate, and complete. The price is correct. The price has always been correct. I am the price.

I was 10 years old. I had a stomach ache all day and tried drinking warm salt water because I thought it would help, but it didn’t. Later that evening, I went to take a shower and noticed my underwear was soaked with blood. My older sister saw it, told my mum, and she started shouting at me, as if it was my fault that I got my period so early. That night my sister showed me how to use a pad and I ended up crying to sleep. I felt like I did something wrong. One of the worse days of my life.

Edward Snowden, in a 2015 video interview with The Guardian from Moscow: "When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say.'" "Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life."

Before you vote LISTEN TO THIS Colorado Rep Scott Bottoms Confirms People Are Buying 1-5 Year Old Children For Sex Says GOP wanted to make a bill for jail time but “We sat and listened to the Democrats fight against this bill, fight against putting these people in jail” “Democrats voted a 100%. That they did not wanna put these pedophiles in jail. They defended the pedophiles.” He Says “Almost all the time, they get off on probation after buying a child and raping a little child.” ‌ “These are the times that I am discouraged about my job as a representative and also just what happens here at the capitol. We sat in a committee all day discussing whether or not somebody that buys little children, these are 2, 3, 4, 5 year old kids, They buy them for sex. Then we tried to get a bill through, represent Bradley sent one through, that was gonna put these buyers in jail. ‌ Right now, most of the time, they get off on probation. Almost all the time, they get off on probation after buying a child and raping a little child. ‌ And we tried to say, well, they need to at least serve a minimum of 4 years. And then we sat and listened to the democrats fight against this bill, fight against putting these people in jail, and came up with all kinds of reasons, including that these buyers are victims themselves. ‌ This is very discouraging. It's also very disgusting for me that they would actually defend this. And then they voted completely along party lines. ‌ Democrats voted a 100%. That they did not wanna put these pedophiles in jail. They defended the pedophiles. This is why it's so difficult sometimes to do what we do around here. We know we're on the side of right. ‌ We know we're on the side of morality, and we get shot down by I do not understand the thought process behind this, but we do get shot down. This is why I would encourage you to do a few things to help us with this. 1st, if you believe in prayer at all, please pray. We are fighting truly dark forces here. This is not okay. ‌ This is evil stuff that we're dealing with. If you have the ability to come up and testify on bills or anything like this, please do so. Your voice is very important to what we're trying to accomplish around here.“
