Have you heard this yet? "We'd know by now if the COVID vaccines were causing unexpected undesirable effects." Sounds plausible, right? The trouble is, it is simply *not* true. A🧵on time trajectories for identifying unexpected harms from pharmaceutical & biologic products.

“Their [GAVI's] biggest vaccine is now a DTP vaccine … an old version that was discontinued in this country because it was causing brain injury,” he said. “We discontinued it. Europe discontinued it. They’re still giving it to 161 million African & Asian children a year.”

🚨 Gates-Funded ‘Big Catch-Up’ Delivers 100 Million Vaccine Doses “In its zeal to promote universal vaccination, it has neglected the key issue of vaccine safety. When the science was inconvenient, @gavi ignored the science.” @SecKennedy childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/gates…

While assuring you that childhood vaccines are safe, New York is proposing yet another layer of legal protection to prevent anyone from suing doctors and pharma for the injuries these products supposedly won’t cause to children. They can’t have it both ways. Either it’s safe or it’s not safe and thus needs legal protection that no other product enjoys. This proposed New York law would make it so those profiting from injecting vaccines “shall not be liable for any injury caused by an act or omission in prescribing, dispending, ordering, furnishing, or in the administration of vaccines…to a minor…, including the residual effects…” You get the drift. It requires suspending reason and reality to believe a product that is safe would need this type of law as a shield… nysenate.gov/legislation/bi…

The raging debate currently consuming our finest “intellectual” libs is <checks notes> “is stealing bad or not?”. That’s where they’re at.

@feelsdesperate I had several friends from the same demographic group argue that it was okay to assassinate Brian Thompson, the health insurance executive, because his company denied coverage of important healthcare services.

This is one of the most insane stories I’ve ever heard. A British citizen was STRIPPED OF HIS UK CITIZENSHIP because he lives in Russia and has opinions about the Ukraine war that the British government doesn’t like. Sad to see how the UK has descended into a tinpot dictatorship run by a low-IQ security establishment.
Sky News@SkyNews

Mark Bullen is a former British police officer, who was stripped of his UK citizenship because of his links to Russia. In an exclusive interview, Mr Bullen tells Sky's @IvorBennett that the idea he is a threat to UK national security is "ridiculous". trib.al/89dJzpX

To confront Russia, “Europe will spend $90 billion it does not have, to buy weapons from the U.S. that it does not have, to arm soldiers that #Ukraine no longer has.” -- @Glenn_Diesen, Norwegian editor, writer and professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway.

The Catholic Church has consistently taught that each human life, from the moment of conception until natural death, is sacred and deserves to be protected. Indeed, the right to life is the very foundation of every other human right. For this reason, only when a society safeguards the sanctity of human life will it flourish and prosper.

It was the fall of 2021 when I first started hearing of Covid shot injury. I did not want to believe it. I wondered if all these reports were just biased exaggerations. Not a fan of the shots, I mostly thought they were useless but never imagined that they were actually dangerous too. So I was in denial for about six months until I was hit with a flurry of data and stark judgements from people I trust. I would certainly out of my element in judging that data but so many people were sounding alarms. Now the truth is incontrovertible and I embarked on a bit of research into the larger story of why shot injury has always been a taboo subject. The industry has constructed it to be this way. My incredulity is exactly what the industry has counted on to be the general attitude. Surely this would not have been approved if it actually hurt people, right? This strong bias against looking at vaccine injury squarely and telling the truth has been a persistent feature of industry propaganda for as far back as we look. Indeed, the bias is a built in feature of the entire commercial enterprise. To keep all this under wraps has required the creation of a massive funding network that has compromised government, academia, professional societies, retail distributors, media, and whole professions. It's absolutely amazing. My initial unwillingness to believe there were profound problems turns out to be a programmed response, a result of cultural planning. It remains so to this day.

Review of my open access book by noted British journalist is now freely available: "The Russia-Ukraine War and its Origins is not just another study of the conflict. It is a tour de force of advocacy—for truth—a feat of evidence gathering and probably the closest that anyone has come to disentangling the host of conflicting narratives that have so characterised this war." politicalquarterly.org.uk/blog/review-th…

Someone inside Kaiser sent me the below internal guidance concerning shots and medications for newborns. It tells Kaiser employees that the "approach to how we introduce and administer routine newborn ... Hepatitis B vaccine" is to " avoid saying ‘it’s optional’ or ‘you can refuse’ unless directly asked” and to tell parents that "we will be giving" instead of asking consent to give. This is the antithesis of informed consent. Yet Kaiser calls it “excellent patient and family care.”

.@ChrisDMott doesn't mince words here: under the definition in US law, the neocons are essentially a terrorist group. They should face trial. They probably won't, but there should at least be some Church Committee. The deep state they helped create should come for them.
Christopher Mott@ChrisDMott

Every administration allows the neoconservatives to come back, and every time they inflict disaster on the country and the world. Its time to make sure they can't come back. It is time to purge the neocons from government. My latest at The Realist Review: therealistreview.substack.com/p/purge-the-ne…

"Now’s a time for choosing: Which side is Vance on? He's been courting billionaire megadonors, incl pro-Israel extremists like Miriam Adelson. Perhaps he’s their man. & yet, behind the scenes Vance has opposed the war w Iran, assuming America's top newspapers have got the story right. So perhaps he’s ours."
Andrew Day@AKDay89

"The model assumes that 3 out of every 1,000 people infected with measles would die." "Measles could kill about 290,000 people over 25 years." So your model is bs and completely at odds with historical data about measles

WATCH: Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available. We illustrated their findings. Read more: propub.li/4cBGdRE

EXPOSED: Leslie Manookian just revealed how Big Pharma “literally engineered” fake polls to convince senior Trump officials that MAHA is unpopular. So we just did our own, real poll. And the results were “staggering.” “91% of respondents said that they believe in the right to informed consent.” “[88% agree that] Americans have the right to refuse medical treatment for themselves.” “87% support the right to make one’s own medical choices and believe that it's a basic human right that should be protected by law.” That’s the truth. But Big Pharma is creating rigged polls to convince those “This company, Fabrizio, is basically the pollsters for the current presidential administration.” “They put out a poll in December that basically made it sound like [RFK Jr.]’s health policies are incredibly unpopular.” “Then in January, they put out another poll.” “And this poll … had even harsher results.” This poll was designed to create a false sense that “any kind of research” from HHS that breaks with mainstream medicine was “unpopular with the electorate and was going to lead to them potentially losing the midterms.” “This is what they were saying: it’s unpopular with voters, stop talking about vaccines.” “The polls … say things like, do you support proven safe and effective vaccinations?” “Not: do you believe in forced medicine?” “But: do you believe in the necessity of proven safe vaccinations?” “Do you believe other people should be able to risk public health by pursuing their own path?” “All these questions are so loaded.” “These polls were literally engineered in order to elicit the responses that they want so they could then say: this is unpopular, shut Bobby down.” “So my strategist said, why don’t we do our own poll?” “Within one week, we had created a 50 question poll [with Zogby], and it went out to 1,000 … very likely voters.” “The pollsters told us that they never see supermajorities in any kind of poll, let alone something that is supposedly so controversial.” @LeslieManookian @WestonAPrice @brownstoneinst

🚨 New York Times: Old People Suck and We Should Take Their Stuff It's time do away with these societal "grifters" and "stowaways," says an eminent Yale professor —MATT TAIBBI The New York Times on old people: It is not ageist to ask whether older people should be required to give more to younger Americans… Older Americans favor restrictions on immigration… there is a correlation between age and resistance to policies to halt the overheating of the planet… impose age ceilings on political offices… Older Americans own much of the most desirable real estate… It is not ageist, finally, to impose policies to transfer jobs, houses and wealth down the generational chain. Yale law professor Samuel Moyn, whom I interviewed once, always seemed generous and reasonable, even when our politics differed. But unless it’s an elaborate meta-joke, the above column and forthcoming book Gerontocracy in America: How the Old are Hoarding Wealth and Power in Americaadvance some of the most intellectually vicious ideas I’ve ever seen. The Godwin’s Law factor alone is a shocker. Moyn observes that people of years have accumulated money and influence and contrives to end the “tyranny of the old” by having “the elderly divested of political power, wealth, and property,” because reasons. The title of the Times piece, “Older Americans Are Hoarding America’s Potential,” carries the obscene lefty connotation that no one really owns anything and the elderly, by din of living too long to begin with, and having a generally shitty quality of life compared to the young, and voting incorrectly/selfishly (hilarious, in the context of open scheming to seize their savings) and wasting resources “playing for time” for “another day, month, or year among loved ones” makes them lousy stewards of what the author unironically calls “our inheritance,” i.e. their homes and bank accounts. racket.news/p/new-york-tim…

Today is my father’s 100th birthday. He was born in Zagreb on the same day as Queen Elizabeth II. His father had just settled there after having to flea Russia through Crimea in 1923, fighting the Germans in WWI and, equally unsuccessfully, resisting the Bolshevik Revolution.
